Strategic report for the period ended 2 January 2026
The directors present their strategic report on the company for the period ended 2 January 2026.
Principal activities
The company's principal activities during the period were the provision of services relating to the design, construction and development projects for electronic systems for naval and defence customers, together with the provision of related support and maintenance services.
The company also provides training systems and solutions for the UK Royal Navy and the provision of related support and maintenance services for these systems.
Whilst the majority of the company's activities are undertaken to support the UK defence sector, the company also delivers its services to international customers in Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. International business continues to represent a growing proportion of the company's activities as it expands its presence in overseas markets.
Review of the Business and Future Developments
With continued strength within the Maritime domain, the business has seen continued growth within our Above Water and Underwater portfolios and has delivered key milestones on several of those contracts during the period. The business was also awarded further contracts for Integrated Platform Management Systems on the Arrowhead 140 vessels in Poland and for submarine mechanical systems for an international customer.
Revenue increased from 2024 with new contract wins in the period and a full year of delivery of scope from contracts awarded in the previous period. Organisational changes including new senior leadership, enhanced financial controls combined with additional staff and a new Bid and Business Development team have further stabilised the business, giving a solid foundation to drive further growth and profitability.
The Astute Class Training Service contract continued to deliver full device availability at the Faslane facility. FAST Training Services Ltd—50% owned by MAPPS UK—operates the facility and its training courses. Continued training service activity in 2025 led to an increased dividend for MAPPS UK.
Support contracts have continued to perform well in the period, providing customers with high levels of availability. Initial scoping began in period for new, long term support contracts for both Above Water and Underwater customers, with the former expanding in scope to accommodate the Type 26 and Type 31 frigates as they enter service in the coming years.
Considering the market conditions the directors believe that both the level of the business and the period-end financial position were satisfactory and are confident that the company will continue to improve on its current level of performance in the future.
To leverage L3Harris' UK corporate footprint, create synergies, and improve profitability management have decided to combine L3Harris Autonomous Surface Vehicles Limited with L3Harris MAPPS Limited to form a new Maritime UK business in January 2026. The company will continue to develop and build on the L3Harris position as a global market leader in the Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) market. The businesses began operating under a consolidated leadership team during 2025, and the formal merger completed on 5th January 2026.
Results
The results of the company are set out in the Statement of comprehensive income on page 13.

L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Strategic report for the period ended 2 January 2026 (continued)
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The company is exposed to a certain level of risk and uncertainty as a result of any deterioration in the company's relationship with its key customers or any changes in Government or customer priorities and requirements in the Naval Construction or Operational Programmes. Other potential risks include a major security breach, through cyber-attack or otherwise, or other significant disruptions of the company's IT networks and systems or those the company operates on-board Royal Navy vessels. There are also risks inherent with large long-term fixed-price contracts, particularly the ability to contain cost overruns, fluctuations in the price of electronic components, or a significant increase in or sustained period of inflation. There are risks arising from the effects of any non-compliance with laws, the consequences of uncertain economic conditions and future geopolitical events. There are also potential risks arising from performance of the company's subcontractors and suppliers, including supply chain disruption impacts and resource shortages
The company maintains comprehensive risk management, compliance and governance frameworks to identify, assess, and mitigate these risks in support of sustained operational performance and the delivery of customer commitments. The company has implemented a comprehensive cyber and information security framework incorporating preventive controls, continuous monitoring, and robust incident response procedures. The company conforms to the Information Security Management System standard: ISO/IEC 27001:2022. These measures are supported by physical, technical, and procedural safeguards designed to protect sensitive data and maintain the resilience of critical systems.

Section 172 (1) Statement
This statement describes how the Directors have taken account of the matters set out in section 172 (1) (a) to (f) of the Companies Act 2006 (“s172”) when performing their duty to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole. From the perspective of the Board, as a result of the governance structure, the matters that it is responsible for considering have been considered to an appropriate extent by the Board. The Board has also considered relevant matters where appropriate.

L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Strategic report for the period ended 2 January 2026 (continued)
The likely consequences of any decision in the long term
The Company maintains an ongoing sales plan, which includes a Product Management review, and a Sector review, to establish cross-company efficiencies and innovative solutions for future product offerings. Additionally, a Development Road Map is maintained, which serves to assess future strategic opportunities for the Company. The company actively seeks to identify and embed efficiencies across the business both for project and overall business benefit. Investment in the business infrastructure and facilities will continue in the upcoming year with an expansion of the Bristol facility to include an additional floorplate and a refurbishment of the existing floors.
The interests of the Company's employees
The Company's competitive advantage is achieved through the skills of its people in developing more innovative and capable solutions. The Company's values include mutual respect, and open communication is actively encouraged. We aim to achieve high levels of employee satisfaction within a safe working environment, providing both diversity and equal opportunity.
The need to foster the Company's business relationships with suppliers, customers and others
We aim to align our activities with customer needs so that our customers benefit from effective, innovative products with high-quality standards, underpinned by outstanding service.
The impact of the Company's operations on the community and environment
Within our sustainability strategy, we employ certified Quality Management System standard (ISO 9001:2015), Environmental Management Systems standard (ISO 14001:2015), and Occupational Health and Safety Management System standard (ISO 45001:2018).
The desirability of the Company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct
Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations is the basis for business success. Employees are duty bound to uphold every aspect of all relevant laws and conduct business in accordance with the practices of fair competition and the prevention of corruption. The Company provides regular training sessions to reinforce these requirements.
The methods used to engage with stakeholders and understand the issues to which they must have regard
The Board is committed to maintaining open communication with our stakeholders. We explain our strategy and objectives clearly, listen to stakeholder feedback, and carefully consider any questions or concerns that are raised.
The need to act fairly between members of the Company
We are wholly owned by L3Harris Technologies, Inc.

L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Directors' report for the period ended 2 January 2026
The directors present their report and the audited financial statements of the company for the period ended 2 January 2026.
Directors of the Company
The directors who held office during the period and up to the date of signing the financial statements, unless otherwise stated, were:
C Shepherd (resigned 31 January 2025)
B Gagnon (resigned 17 April 2025)
J Dunne (appointed 26 March 2025)
K Bartram (appointed 17 April 2025)
J Cantillon
Dividends
An interim dividend of £7m (2024 £nil) has been paid during the period. The directors do not recommend payment of a final dividend (2024 £nil).
On 3 July 2026 the Company declared and paid a dividend of £10m to its immediate parent undertaking. As the dividend was declared after the reporting date, no liability has been recognised in these financial statements
Going concern
As at statement of financial position date, the Company has net assets of £33,687,887 (2024 - £32,894,078) and has made a profit after tax in the period of £7,793,794 (2024 - £6,297,758).
In determining if the Company is a going concern, the Directors have reviewed the forecast for the period to 30th September 2027 and stress-tested various scenarios over this period for the impact of different levels of revenue disruption. The forecasts indicate that the Company will continue as a going concern with the current facilities available to it, even in the case of a significant reduction in activity.
Further the L3Harris group has considerable financial resources together with long-term contracts with several customers and suppliers and therefore in the event of the loss or suspension of one of its main contracts the Company would look to seek support from the group.
The Company has obtained a letter of support from L3Harris Technologies Inc., the ultimate parent company, which confirms that financial support will be provided, if required, to enable the Company to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of signing. Management has assessed the ability of the parent company to provide this support. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.
Future Developments
The future developments of the company have been set out in the Strategic report.
Financial risk management
The company's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks that include the effects of changes in credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate cash flow risk. The company has in place a risk management programme that seeks to limit the adverse effects on the financial performance of the company by monitoring levels of debt finance and the related finance costs.
5
L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Directors' report for the period ended 2 January 2026 (continued)
Financial risk management (continued)
Given the size of the company, the directors have not delegated the responsibility of monitoring financial risk management to a sub-committee of the board. The policies set by the board of directors are implemented by
the company's finance department. The department has a policy and procedures manual that sets out specific guidelines to manage interest rate risk and credit risk.
Credit risk
The company has implemented policies that require appropriate credit checks on potential customers before sales are made. The amount of exposure to any individual counterparty is subject to a limit, which is reassessed annually by the board.
Liquidity risk
The company actively maintains a mixture of long-term and short-term debt finance that is designed to ensure the company has sufficient available funds for operations and planned expansions. At 2 January 2026 the company has no external debt.
Interest rate cash flow risk
The company has interest-bearing assets. The company has a policy of maintaining debt at fixed rate (where possible) to ensure certainty of future interest cash flows. The directors will revisit the appropriateness of this policy should the company's operations change in size or nature. At 2 January 2026 the company does not have any external debt. Liabilities are within group undertakings which are interest free.
Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR)
In line with the Companies and Limited Liability Partnerships (Energy and Carbon Report) Regulations 2018 (“the 2018 Regulations”) L3Harris MAPPS Limited has implemented the government's policy on Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR).
L3Harris MAPPS Limited can report the emission figures below, calculated using the UK government's emission conversion factor guidance. The report corresponds with our financial period and reflects emissions and consumption from leased and controlled assets for which L3Harris MAPPS Limited is responsible. This includes purchased or indirectly charged gas and electricity.

Energy Efficient Action
L3Harris MAPPS Limited is committed to continually invest in the necessary resources to help achieve further carbon emission reduction. The following actions were taken in 2025 to reduce carbon emissions:
1.
Energy Efficient lighting and controls are being introduced to reduce electricity consumption.
2.
Encouraging staff to continue our ‘paperless' programme, ensuring documentation is filed electronically.
3.
Whilst business travel increased in 2025 due to higher bidding volumes being undertaken combined with a fuller schedule of supplier and customer visits, staff are encouraged to make use of virtual meetings for issues that do not require a formal visit.
Statement of directors' responsibilities in respect of the financial statements
The directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial period. Under that law the directors have prepared the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”, 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 of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:
·
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
·
state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 102, have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
·
present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable information
·
provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in FRS 102 is insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the group and company financial position and financial performance
·
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
·
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 also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.
Under applicable law and regulations, the directors are also responsible for preparing a strategic report and directors' report that comply with that law and those regulations. The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website.

L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Disclosure of information to auditors
The company has granted an indemnity to one or more of its directors against liability in respect of proceedings brought by third parties, subject to the conditions set out in section 234 of the Companies Act 2006. Such qualifying third-party indemnity provision remains in force as at the date of approving the directors' report
In the case of each director in office at the date the Directors' Report is approved:
·
so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditors are unaware; and
·
they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

Independent auditors' report to the members of L3Harris MAPPS Limited
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of L3Harris MAPPS Limited for the period ended 2 January 2026 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity, and the related Notes 1 to 24, 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 FRS 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 company's affairs as at 2 January 2026 and of its profit for the period 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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company 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 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 company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 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. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
9
Independent auditors' report to the members of L3Harris MAPPS Limited (continued)
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 course of 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 the 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 strategic report and the directors' report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the strategic report and directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the 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 or directors' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the 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 directors' responsibilities statement set out on page 7, 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 is 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 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 company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's 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.
10
Independent auditors' report to the members of L3Harris MAPPS Limited (continued)
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of 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 irregularities, including fraud. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and management.
•
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the company and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”, Companies Act 2006, Bribery Act 2010, Money Laundering regulations and relevant tax compliance regulations in the United Kingdom. In addition, the company has to comply with laws and regulations relating to its operations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
•
We understood how L3Harris MAPPS Limited is complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We corroborated our enquiries through the review of the following documentation or completion of the following procedures:
o
Review of all minutes of board meetings held during the period and through to the most recent meeting held prior to the approval of these financial statements;
o
Review of accounting policies and completion of a disclosure checklist to assess compliance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” and Company law requirements;
o
Review of any relevant correspondence with local tax authorities; and
o
Review of any relevant correspondence received from regulatory bodies
•
We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by holding discussions with management to understand the Company's business, significant contract arrangements, areas of judgement, management's incentives and the control environment. We obtained an understanding of the Company's policies and procedures in relation to fraud risks and considered the entity-level controls and relevant processes established to prevent, deter or detect fraud. Following these procedures, we identified risks relating to management override of controls and inappropriate revenue recognition through inaccurate or inappropriate contract accounting, including failure to identify onerous contracts, inappropriate cut-off and revenue being recognised at an incorrect amount.
•
Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved reviewing significant contracts to assess whether revenue had been recognised in accordance with the contractual terms and the requirements of FRS 102, challenging estimated costs to complete and management's assumptions used in determining contract profitability, considering whether onerous contract provisions were complete and appropriately recognised, testing revenue transactions and period-end cut-off, reviewing post period-end credit notes, and performing journal entry testing with a focus on unusual or significant transactions. We also reviewed accounting estimates for evidence of management bias and made enquiries of management regarding actual or suspected instances of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the
Financial Reporting Council's website at https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Independent auditors' report to the members of L3Harris MAPPS Limited (continued)
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.

Statement of compliance
The financial statements of L3Harris MAPPS Limited have been prepared in compliance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Companies Act 2006.

Summary of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in note 4.
Going concern
As at the statement of financial position date, the Company has net assets of £33,687,888 (2024 - £32,894,078) and has made a profit after tax in the period of £7,793,794 (2024 - £6,297,758).
In determining if the company is a going concern, the Directors have reviewed the forecast for the period to 30th September 2027 and stress-tested various scenarios over this period for the impact of different levels of revenue disruption. The forecasts indicate that the Company will continue as a going concern with the current facilities available to it, even in the case of a significant reduction in activity.true
Further, the L3Harris group has considerable financial resources together with long-term contracts with several customers and suppliers and therefore in the event of the loss or suspension of one of its main contracts the Company would look to seek support from the group.
The Company has obtained a letter of support from L3Harris Technologies Inc., the ultimate parent company, which confirms that financial support will be provided, if required, to enable the Company to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of 12 months from the date of signing. Management has assessed the ability of the parent company to provide this support. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

Exemptions for qualifying entities under FRS 102
The company has taken advantage of the following exemptions:true
from preparing a statement of cash flows, under FRS 102 paragraph 1.12(b), on the basis that it is a qualifying entity and its ultimate parent company L3Harris Technologies Inc., includes the company's cash flows in its own consolidated financial statements.
from disclosing certain financial instruments on the basis that equivalent disclosures are included in the consolidated financial statements of its ultimate parent company L3Harris Technologies Inc. [FRS 102 paras 11.39 – 11.48A, 12.26 – 12.29];
from disclosing the requirements of Section 26 in respect of share-based payments on the basis that the share-based payments concern equity instruments of its ultimate parent company L3Harris Technologies Inc.; and the equivalent disclosures are included in its own consolidated financial statements. [FRS 102 paras 26.18(b), 26.19 – 26.21, 26.23]; and
from disclosing key management personnel compensation in total. [FRS 102 para 33.7].
Consolidated financial statements
The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies Inc. and is included in the consolidated financial statements of L3Harris Technologies Inc., which are publicly available. Accordingly, the company is exempt by virtue of section 401 of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements.
Foreign currency
The company's functional and presentation currency is the pound sterling.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rates on the date of the transaction.
At each period end monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction and non-monetary items at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Provisions
Provisions for warranties and product liability are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood of an outflow is assessed for the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow in respect of any individual obligation is small.
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised where the unavoidable costs of meeting the Company's obligations under a contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from that contract. The full expected loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account. The provision is utilised over the remaining life of the contract as the related contractual obligations are fulfilled.
Revenue
Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, net of returns, discounts, rebates and value added tax.
Long-term contracts are assessed on a contract-by-contract basis. Revenue and related costs are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as contract activity progresses. Where the outcome of a contract can be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract at the reporting date. Stage of completion is measured by reference to costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated contract costs.
Where the outcome of a contract cannot be measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that recoverable costs have been incurred.
Amounts recognised as revenue in excess of amounts invoiced are included within accrued income. Amounts invoiced in excess of revenue recognised are included within deferred income.
Provision is made for any losses incurred or expected to be incurred on uncompleted contracts.
Revenue relating to ongoing support and maintenance agreements billed in advance is deferred and recognised evenly over the period to which the services relate.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Employee benefits
The company provides a range of benefits to employees, including annual bonus arrangements, paid holiday arrangements and a defined contribution pension plan.
The company makes contributions to the personal pension schemes of certain employees under defined contributions arrangements. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the company in independently administered funds. Contributions payable for the period are charged in the Statement of comprehensive income. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the Statement of financial position.
Taxation
Taxation expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in the other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case it is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Current or deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Current tax is the amount of income tax payable in respect of taxable profit for the period or prior periods. Tax is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that are applicable by the period end.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred tax arises from timing differences that are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements. These timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences at the reporting date except for certain exceptions. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are only recognised when it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.
Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the period end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Dividend Income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
Intangible assets
Computer software is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Software is amortised over its estimated useful life of three years on a straight-line basis.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Intangible assets (continued)
Where factors, such as technological advancement or changes in market price, indicate that residual value or useful life have changed, the residual value, useful life or amortisation rate are amended prospectively to reflect the new circumstances.
The assets are reviewed for impairment if the above factors indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the original purchase price, costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, dismantling and restoration costs and borrowing costs capitalised.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis in order to write off the assets, less their estimated residual value, over their estimated useful life. The useful economic lives used for this purpose are:
Leasehold improvements
over the life of the lease
Fixtures and fittings
3 years
Computer equipment
3 years
Motor vehicles
3 years
The assets' residual lives are reviewed, and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The effect of any change is accounted for prospectively.
Tangible assets are derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected. On disposal, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.
Leased assets
Costs in respect of operating leases are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Investments
Investments are stated at cost less any provision for impairment. Annually, the Directors consider whether any events or circumstances have occurred that indicate the carrying value of investments may not be recoverable. Where such indicators exist, an impairment review is undertaken to determine whether the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. If the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, an impairment charge is recognised to reduce the carrying value of the investment.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Inventories are recognised as an expense in the period in which related revenue is recognised.
In respect of work in progress and finished goods, cost is determined on a first in first out basis and includes the purchase price, including taxes, duties, and transport and handling costs directly attributable to bringing the inventory to its present location and condition.
At the end of each reporting period inventories are assessed for impairment. If an item of inventory is impaired, the identified inventory is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment charge is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand.
Financial instruments
Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at transaction price.
Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are
assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.
Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not
subsidiaries,
associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price.
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) 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.
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised 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.
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Distributions to equity holders
Dividends and other distributions to company's shareholders are recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which the dividends and other distributions are approved by the company's shareholders. These amounts are recognised in the Statement of changes in equity.
Related party transactions
The company discloses transactions with related parties that are not wholly owned entities with the same Group. Transactions with wholly owned entities within the Group are not disclosed.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
Provisions (note 17)
A. Critical accounting judgements
Assessment of onerous contracts
Management exercises significant judgement in assessing whether long-term contracts are expected to be loss-making and consequently require recognition of an onerous contract provision. This assessment requires judgements regarding the interpretation of contractual terms, identification of unavoidable costs, and determination of whether forecast economic benefits are sufficient to cover those costs.
Recognition of dilapidations obligations
Judgement is required in determining whether the Company has a present obligation to restore leased premises to their original condition. In forming this judgement, management considers the terms of the lease agreements, the condition of the premises, and any constructive obligations arising from past practice.

4 Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty (continued)
B. Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Measurement of contract and warranty provisions
The provision for contract-related obligations and warranties involves several assumptions that are subject to estimation uncertainty. Key areas of estimation include:
the expected future costs required to fulfil warranty and contractual obligations.
the timing of expected cash outflows; and
the discount rates applied to determine the present value of long-term obligations.
These estimates are based on historical performance data, current operational information and management's expectations of future events. Given the multi-year nature of certain contracts, revisions to cost forecasts could result in material adjustments to the provision.
Cost-to-complete estimates for long-term contracts
For contracts assessed as potentially loss-making, the estimated costs to complete are inherently uncertain. Estimates include assumptions regarding future labour, material, and subcontractor costs. These assumptions are reviewed regularly, and the provision is adjusted when revised information indicates a change in expected outturn.
Dilapidations provision
Where a dilapidations provision is recognised, the amount reflects management's best estimate of the costs required to return leasehold premises to the agreed condition at the end of the lease term. Estimation uncertainty arises in determining the extent of required works, the associated cost levels and the expected timing of settlement, all of which may differ from the final outcome.

Critical accounting judgements and estimation uncertainty (continued)
Revenue recognition
Revenue recognition for projects under the company's long-term contract accounting policy contains inherent uncertainty in that revenue is recognised based on progress to date compared to expected project completion. Stage of completion is measured by reference to costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs for each contract. Where the contract outcome cannot be measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable. An expected loss on the construction contract is recognised immediately as an expense. The timing of project completion and the forecast costs to complete are based on the information available at reporting date and may change as new information becomes available. As these projects are bespoke and non-standard, there can be estimation uncertainty over the costs to complete. Projects are reviewed and approved on a regular basis by Project, Technical and Finance staff to ensure their validity. This review includes an assessment of the estimates of costs to complete the contracts.
Changes to the contract are agreed with the customer and the contract value and cost to complete increased accordingly, where an increase in costs is not recoverable, the necessary adjustment to revenue recognition would be made if deemed material.
Corporation tax
The company's corporation tax amounts are an estimate as its corporation tax computation is only in draft form at the point the financial statements are signed. In addition, the company is part of a Group Payment Arrangement for tax purposes in the UK with fellow group undertakings, meaning it may benefit from loss relief from elsewhere in the group each financial period. However, these amounts may be uncertain until all the group's tax returns are filed. Both points mean that adjustments in respect of prior periods may need to be disclosed in the taxation note.

Tax rate
The main rate of UK corporation tax is 25% (2024: 25%). The Company is subject to corporation tax at this rate. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the underlying temporary differences reverse, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax has been calculated at 25% (2024: 25%).
OECD Pillar Two
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion framework (GloBE Rules or Pillar Two model rules) implemented new taxing mechanisms under which multinational enterprises with revenue exceeding EUR 750 million per their consolidated financial statements would pay a 15% minimum tax, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2024. These new rules have been enacted in certain jurisdictions where L3 Harris group operates. L3 Harris Group has performed an assessment of its potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes based on the 2024 country-by-country reporting and 2025 financial information for the constituent entities in the Group and has determined that any top up tax is immaterial. The Group continues to follow Pillar Two legislative developments, as further countries enact the Pillar Two model rules, to evaluate the potential future impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

The Directors have considered whether any indicators of impairment exist in respect of the Company's investments. In performing this assessment, consideration has been given to the underlying net assets and forecast future profitability of the investee undertakings. Based on this review, the Directors concluded that the recoverable amount of the investments exceeds their carrying value and, accordingly, no impairment has been recognised.

L3Harris MAPPS Limited
A provision has been recognised in respect of one contract subject to Single Source Regulations Office (SSRO) regulations. Due to profit rate limitations imposed under the SSRO regime, the Company expects a reduction in the profit recoverable on the contract. The provision represents management's best estimate of the expected financial impact at the reporting date.
Onerous contracts
The provision for onerous contracts relates to three long-term contracts where the forecast unavoidable costs of fulfilling the remaining contractual obligations exceed the expected economic benefits to be received. The provision represents management's best estimate of the expected losses on completion of these contracts.
Two of the contracts are expected to be completed within the next 12 months, with the remaining contract expected to be completed by 2033. The provision has been determined using management's latest forecasts of contract revenues, costs to complete, programme schedules and technical performance. These estimates are subject to uncertainty and are reviewed regularly, with any revisions recognised in the period in which they are identified.
