| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2025 |
| This report has been prepared to inform members of the company and help them assess how the directors have performed their duty to promote the success of the company during the period under review. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| The principal activity of the Group in the period under review was that of a Building Services Company together with associated mechanical, electrical, fabrication and building services. |
| The group's financial performance fell back (as expected) in 2025 following the reduction of work available in the Armed Forces sector arising from the main contractors requiring less external support and government reducing the amount of financial resources available. The group combatted this by increasing the amount of work in other sectors with work in respect of data centre's becoming more prevalent. |
| Financial resources remained steady across the group as can be seen by the key performance indicators below. Profit was reinvested in the group providing a sound base for future development with group liquidity remaining strong. |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| Business risk |
| The Group operates in the commercial building and construction industry and as such is subject to the economic trends within the UK. The economy remains steady and provides consistency and stability for the Group.. Continued pressure from customers to achieve the best prices means that margins remain competitive. Delays in receiving payments can in some cases lead to cashflow pressure although the Group holds material reserves to minimise such difficulties where possible. |
| Financial risk |
| The Group's major risk arises from a bad debt from one of its major customers. The directors monitor all major customers by reviewing information publicly available and assessing that information for impact on the Group's willingness to continue to work with that customer. |
| The Group continues to hold significant cash balances which will help it through any period of potential instability. These balances will protect the Group should any financial threats arise. The directors have no plans to distribute excess balances to the shareholders as this may impact upon the long term strength of the Group's balance sheet. |
| Interest Rate Risk |
| Interest rates have stabilised and the Group has minimal debt and therefore minimal interest rate risk. |
| Health and Safety risk |
| Claims in respect of health and safety injuries are far more prevalent than in years gone by. The Group takes this risk seriously and has strict policies in place for all employees to follow both on site and in the office. Action is taken against employees who do not adhere to the policies thus reinforcing the policies visibly to all employees. The Group has an excellent health and safety record. |

| Group Strategic Report |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2025 |
| FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
| Following on from the merger of two subsidiaries businesses in 2024, another subsidiary's business was merged in 2025 leaving the group with its holding company, a trading subsidiary, a subsidiary where contracts were being completed with a view to ceasing trade and a non trading subsidiary. Further, in October 2025, the trading subsidiary was sold via a management buyout leaving the group in a wind down position. That wind down is expected to be completed by the winter of 2026 or early 2027. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| Brill Holdings Limited (Registered number: 06524883) |
| Report of the Directors |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2025 |
| The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended 30 September 2025. |
| PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |
| The principal activity of the group in the year under review was that of a building services company and associated trades. |
| DIVIDENDS |
| An interim dividend of £200.00 per share was paid to Ordinary shareholders in September 2025. |
| No final dividends are expected. |
| EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE YEAR |
| Information relating to events since the end of the year is given in the notes to the financial statements. |
| DIRECTORS |
| The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 October 2024 to the date of this report. |
| STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
| Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and the group and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
| - | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
| - | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
| - | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
| The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
| STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
| So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the group's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information. |
| Brill Holdings Limited (Registered number: 06524883) |
| Report of the Directors |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2025 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Sumer Auditco Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Brill Holdings Limited |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of Brill Holdings Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 30 September 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Company Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
| In our opinion the financial statements: |
| - | give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and of the parent company affairs as at 30 September 2025 and of the group's profit for the year then ended; |
| - | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
| - | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
| Basis for opinion |
| We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
| Material uncertainty related to going concern |
| In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
| Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
| Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
| Other information |
| The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
| Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
| In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
| Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
| In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
| - | the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
| - | the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Brill Holdings Limited |
| Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
| In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
| We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
| - | adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
| - | the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
| - | certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
| - | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
| Responsibilities of directors |
| As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
| In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Brill Holdings Limited |
| Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
| Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: |
| - | the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; |
| - | we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Company through discussions with the directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience; |
| - | we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the Company, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and food safety, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation; |
| - | we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management, reviewing correspondence with industry regulators, and inspecting legal correspondence; and |
| - | identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. |
| Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. |
| We assessed the susceptibility of the Company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: |
| - | making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and |
| - | considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. |
| To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: |
| - | performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; |
| - | tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; |
| - | assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and |
| - | investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. |
| In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: |
| - | agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; |
| - | reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; |
| - | enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and |
| - | reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators, and the Company's legal advisors. |
| There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. |
| Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. |
| A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors. |
| Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
| Brill Holdings Limited |
| Use of our report |
| This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. |

| Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2025 |
| 1. | TRADING ADDRESS |
| The Group trading address is 11 The Green, Brill, Aylesbury, Bucks, HP18 9RU. |
| 2. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Brill Holdings Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 3. | STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE |
| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. |
| 4. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention on a going concern basis. Since the year end (October 2025), the main subsidiary was sold leaving two subsidiary's. One of those subsidiaries had ceased trading in the year ended 30th September 2024 and the second subsidiary is reducing the amount that it is trading with a view to ceasing trading itself in the year to 30th September 2026. When that happens the group would no longer be trading and thus not considered a going concern. The group is solvent and ceasing to be a going concern would not have a material impact on the financial statements. |
| Basis of consolidation |
| The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company together with all of its subsidiaries of which all are wholly owned. |
| Significant judgements and estimates |
| In the application of the Company's accounting policies, which are described in this note, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| There are two material estimates within the financial statements. The main estimate relates to the value of Work In Progress. The estimation process assumes that profit arises evenly over the life of a contract and calculates the % completion of the contract by looking at the costs incurred to date compared to the total expected costs of the contract. The % completion is then multiplied by the contract value and any recognised turnover deducted. The resultant number is recognised as an "amount recoverable under contract" or a "payment on account". |
| The second material estimate relates to the provision for dilapidation costs arising under property leases. Due to the nature of the business, the directors consider themselves to have sufficient expertise to reasonably estimate these costs. |

| Turnover |
| Turnover represents net invoiced sales of work completed as adjusted for work in progress where work in progress is recoverable under contract. All amounts are net of VAT. |
| Where it is considered that the outcome of a contract can be assessed with reasonable certainty before its conclusion, the prudently calculated attributable profit is recognised (as turnover) as the difference between reported turnover and related costs for that contract. |
| The amount by which recorded turnover is in excess of payments on account is classified as "amounts recoverable on contracts" and separately disclosed within debtors. Where payments are in excess of recognised turnover, the excess is included as "payments on account". |
| Goodwill |
| Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2002, has been amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years. |
| Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Improvements to property | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| An asset is recognised where relevant expenditure is incurred and that expenditure is expected to have a value beyond the Balance Sheet date. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |

| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
| The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the group's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Financial instruments |
| (i) Financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors are initially recognised at the transaction price and therefore stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the debtors are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. |
| Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership, control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions. |
| (ii) Financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans and other loans are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. |
| Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Creditors are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised on cost using the effective interest method. |
| Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. |
| Dilapidations |
| Where a liability is expected to arise under a lease obligation relating to a property, a provision is made for such costs under the Balance Sheet heading of "provisions for liabilities". The provision is time discounted where appropriate. |

| 28. | POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS |
| In October 2025, the main subsidiary was sold leaving two subsidiary's. One of those subsidiaries had ceased trading in the year ended 30th September 2024 and the second subsidiary is reducing the amount that it is trading with a view to ceasing trading itself in the year to 30th September 2026. When that happens the group would no longer be trading and thus not considered a going concern. The group is solvent and ceasing to be a going concern would not have a material impact on the financial statements. |
