Strategic Report
Review of business
Key financial and other indicators between this financial period and last year are as follows:
2025 2024
£ £
Turnover 20,135,506 21,404,432
Gross profit 2,139,910 1,694,492
Operating profit 565,906 318,153
Shareholders' funds 7,440,973 7,233,348
Despite continued challenges within the used vehicle market, the company has delivered a strong and resilient performance during the year. Turnover remained at a level broadly consistent with the previous financial year, reflecting the company's ability to maintain trading volumes in a difficult economic environment.

The year saw the successful impplementation of a revised management structure, aimed at enhancing operational effectiveness and supporting future growth. Alongside these organisational developments, management maintained a disciplined focus on stock acquisition, pricing strategy na doverall margin performance.

These initiatives have delivered tangible results, with gross profit margins increasing from 7.9% to 10.6% during the year. The improvement reflects both the quality of operational execution and the company's commitment to generating sustainable profitability rather than pursuing volume growth alone.

The directors remain confident in the company's strategy and believe that the foundations established during the year will support continued progress and long-term value creation for stakeholders.
Principal risks and uncertainties
Management continually monitor the key risks facing the company, together with assessing the controls used for managing these risks. The board of directors formally reviews and documents the principal risks facing the business at least annually.
Frecker Limited
Strategic Report
Economic and Market Risks
The company continues to monitor both national and local sales trends to be able to identify the early signs of potential financial difficulties, so that action can be taken in the event of changing market conditions.

The market in which the company operates is considered to be relatively competitive and therefore competitor pressure could result in losing sales to key competitors. The company manages the risk by providing a quality product that is price matched nationally on a weekly basis by utilising internet searches and social media accounts.

Loss of key personnel would present significant operational difficulties for the company. Management seeks to ensure that key personnel are appropriately remunerated to ensure good performance is recognised.
Financial Risks
The company has an established, structured approach to risk management. The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The company has adopted risk management policies that seek to mitigate these risks in a cost-effective manner. Financial assets that expose the company to financial risk consist primarily of trade debtors and cash. Financial liabilities that expose the company to financial risk consist principally of trade creditors, bank loans and stocking loan facilities.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company does not have sufficient liquid assets to meet its obligations as they fall due. The company maintains sufficient cash and open committed credit lines from its bankers and stock finance providers, to meet its funding requirements.
Interest rate risk re unfavourable movements in interest rates may be perceived as being material to the accounts due to its gearing and the borrowing agreements in place. Liquidity is maintained at a prudent level and the company ensures there is an adequate liquidity buffer to cover its contingencies.
Operational Improvements and Current Outlook
The company is now established at its new premises and continues to build a strong operational presence in the local market place. The current financial year is encouiraging both in terms of the volume of cars sold and the margins achieved.

Stock management processes continue to be monitored closely using real-time pricing data and faster turnover cycles. Sales volumes are growing, supported by better sourcing and demand forecasting. The management team with its depth of experience, continues to successfully navigate market volatility and the directors believe that the company is well positioned for improved performance.
Frecker Limited
Strategic Report
Strategic Priorities
The board of directors' strategic priorities moving forward include:

1. Margin Recovery
Focus will shift to rebuilding gross margins through selective stock acquisition, improved customer financing options and rebalancing online and in-person transactions.

2. Data -Lead Inventory Management
Investments in data tools will ensure that stock purchasing reflects up-to-date market conditions and consumer trends, reducing exposure to sudden market value drops.

3. Customer Experience & Loyalty
Enhancing after-sales support, warranty offers, and service packages to increase customer retention and referral business.
Conclusion
Despite a challenging year, the company has demonstrated strategic agility, a commitment to innovation, and operational resilience. The lessons learned through the online portal strategy, have strengthened the company's market awareness and preparedness. With a reliable leadership team, recently refurbished modern premises, and improving market dynamics, the business is well-positioned for renewed growth and profitability both in the current and future financial periods.

Directors' Report
The directors present their report and financial statements for the year ended 30 October 2025.
Principal activities
The company's principal activity during the year continued to be that of dealers in second hand motor vehicles.
Future developments
The company intends to continue operating in the areas of motor vehicle sales and to increase profitability. As referred to in the strategic report, the directors are encouraged by the progress made during the year and believe that the company's strengthened management structure and continued focus on profitable growth place the business in a strong position for the future. While market conditions remain uncertain, the company is well placed to build upon the improvements achieved and to pursue opportunities for sustainable long-term growth.
Financial instrument risk
The company has an established, structured approach to risk management. The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks such as credit, liquidity and cash flow, and interest rate risks. The company has adopted risk management policies that seek to mitigate these risks in a cost effective manner. Financial assets that expose the company to financial risk consist primarily of trade receivables and cash. Financial liabilities that expose the company to financial risk consist primarily of trade payables and bank borrowings.
Dividends
No interim dividends have been paid in the year. (2024: £60,000). The directors do not recommend a final dividend.
Directors
The following persons served as directors during the year:
J Muckian (resigned 7th August 2026)
D N Wilson
Directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the report and 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 (Financial Reporting Standard 102 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 these financial statements, the directors are required to:
● select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
● make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
● state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
● 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 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. They 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.
Disclosure of information to auditors
Each person who was a director at the time this report was approved confirms that:
● so far as he is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditor is unaware; and
● he has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information.
This report was approved by the board on 29 October 2026 and signed on its behalf.

Independent auditor's report
to the members of Frecker Limited
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Frecker Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 October 2025 which comprise the Income Statement, the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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 the 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 company's affairs as at 30 October 2025 and of its profit for the year then ended;
● have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
● 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 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 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 our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 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 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 strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
● the strategic report and the 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 the 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, 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.
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 gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates through discussions with the directors and other management (as required by auditing standards) and considered the risk of acts by the company that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.

We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that 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. We focussed on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. Our tests included agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. As a consequence of these inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it.

In common with all audits under ISA's (UK), we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
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.

Frecker Limited
Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 30 October 2025
1 Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.The company is a parent company that qualifies for the exemption from preparing consolidated financial statements under the Companies Act 2006 and FRS 102. The group is of medium size but the company has not prepared consolidated financial statements as its wholly owned subsidiaries are dormant and their inclusion is not material for the purpose of giving a true and fiar view.Consequently, the financial statements present information about the company as an individual entity and not about its group.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer.
Other operating Income
Other operating income comprises rents receivable from the letting of the company's investment commercial properties. Rental income is recognised over the periods of the individual leases on the properties.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost or valuation less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
Freehold land and buildings Depreciated over 50 years
Leasehold buildings Over the period of the lease
Fixtures, fittings, tools and equipment 20% straight line
The company's property is maintained by a programme of repair and refurbishment such that the residual value is deemed to be at least equal to the book value. The residual value would be sufficiently high to make any depreciation charge in the current period immaterial, which is supported by an impairment review.The freehold land and buildings are held under the revaluation model.
Investment property
Investment property is initially recognised at cost and then subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in value are recognised in profit or loss.
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Listed investments are measured at fair value. Unlisted investments are measured at fair value unless the value cannot be measured reliably, in which case they are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Changes in fair value are included in the profit and loss account.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell. Cost is determined using the first in first out method. The carrying amount of stock sold is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Provisions
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Leased assets
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The rights of use and obligations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction in the outstanding liability using the effective interest rate method. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the company's policy for tangible fixed assets. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease term and its useful life. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Pensions
Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. The key assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows.

Useful economic lives of tangible assets - The annual depreciation charge is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful economic lives are re-assessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, future investments and economic utilisation. The residual value of freehold and investment properties is reviewed on an annual basis and any increase or impairment is adjusted.

Stock Provision - The company has made an assumption of writing down the value of stock on items in which they expect the cost to exceed the net realisable value before it is fully sold/utilised. This assumption has involved looking at the historic sales patterns and expected sales in future years.
