Strategic Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

The director presents his strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2026.

Principal activity

The principal activity of the group is the provision of field marketing services.

Fair review of the business including principal risks and uncertainties:

Against a backdrop of broader market instability and budget uncertainty across the marketing sector during FY 25/26, the group demonstrated resilience, holding its market position and delivering revenue growth.

Profitability during the period was temporarily impacted by extraordinary factors—specifically, the costs and resource allocation associated with an aborted merger process and the execution of a share buyback scheme. Having concluded these processes, the group remains firmly focused on its established position as an independent agency.

Despite these challenges, core client retention remained high, and the business successfully acquired new accounts. Growth was further driven by expanding service lines beyond the group’s traditional core offerings, successfully attracting new revenue streams and brands into the business.

Staff retention remained exceptionally high with low attrition. Retaining key talent ensures the operational stability and expertise necessary to deliver a healthier financial future following an unprecedented period in the group's history.

Key risks and uncertainties

The group is currently experiencing a macroeconomic environment where inflation rates are increasing, putting upward pressure on operating overheads, temporarily compressing net margins. This pressure is compounded by rising statutory charges and regulationary costs which cannot be passed on to clients in all cases, requiring the group to absorb additional costs internally. To ensure the group remains in a robust position, the Directors have initiated comprehensive reviews in order to identify efficiency gains and to ensure billing rates align more closely with inflationary increases.

Financial key performance indicators:

Management maintains a disciplined focus on key metrics to protect profitability and drive sustainable growth. Primary focus areas include:

Gross Margin Maintenance: Continual monitoring of service delivery costs to safeguard project profitability.

Client Performance KPIs: Strict adherence to service-level agreements (SLAs) to drive retention and lifetime account value.

Human Capital & ESG: Enhanced focus on employee development and support, alongside ongoing environmental policies and initiatives.

Statement of Director's Responsibilities

Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director has 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 director must not approve the financial statements unless he is satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and the company and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the director is required to:

The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the group's and the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the group and the company and enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the group and the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Gekko Partners Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Gekko Partners Ltd. (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2026, which comprise the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and 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:

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 auditor 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.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report 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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Gekko Partners Ltd.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Gekko Partners Ltd.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report and the Director's Report.

Auditor 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 an auditor’s report 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.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Detecting irregularities, including fraud

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. As such, we have considered:

Gekko Partners Ltd.

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Gekko Partners Ltd.

• the nature of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance including the company's remuneration policy, bonus levels, and performance targets;
• the company's own assessment, including assessments made by key management, of the risks that irregularities may occur either as a result of fraud or error;
• any matters we identified having reviewed the company's policies and procedures relating to:

- identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
- detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; and
- the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations;

• the matters discussed amongst the audit engagement team.

As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the areas in which management is required to exercise significant judgement, such as the disclosure of adjusting items. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override.

We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act, tax legislation and regulations concerning importing and exporting to and from the UK.

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 an auditor’s report 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.
