STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31st December 2022. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The directors consider that the key financial performance indicators (KPIs) are those that communicate the financial performance and strength of the company as a whole to its members. These KPIs comprise turnover, operating profit and shareholders' funds. The company is exempt from the requirement to disclose details of non-financial key performance indicators as it is a medium sized company. |
During the year the company reported an 8.5% increase in turnover as demand for the company's products increased following the end of business interruption caused by the Covid pandemic. The business has experienced increases in costs which it could not pass fully to its customer base and this has contributed to a 29% decrease in operating profit. At the year end, shareholders' funds increased by 6% and net assets per ordinary share were £63. |
The company expects profitability to remain under pressure in the future due to continuing uncertainty in the world, high inflation and their impact on costs. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The company's financial risk management objectives consist of identifying and monitoring those risks which have an adverse impact on the value of the company's financial assets and liabilities or on reported profitability and on the cash flows of the company. |
The company's principal financial instruments comprise cash balances and various items such as trade debtors and trade creditors which arise directly from trading operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide finance for the company's operations. The existence of these financial instruments exposes the company to a number of financial risks. |
LIQUIDITY RISK |
The company minimises its exposure to liquidity risk by managing cash generation by its operations with cash collection targets set. In this way the company ensures that sufficient funds are available for day to day operations and planned expansions. |
CREDIT RISK |
The principal credit risk arises from trade debtors. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis, based on a combination of payment history and third party references. |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
The directors are satisfied with the results achieved during the year. Their plan for the future is to continue in their efforts to secure new orders, both in the United Kingdom and overseas, and to continue to invest in new plant and machinery. Brexit and events outside the company's control have created significant uncertainties which are likely to dampen the company's future growth, but in the directors' opinion, the company is well positioned to meet these challenges. |

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT |
The company has set out the business review, the principal risks and uncertainties and future developments in the strategic report on page 2 of these financial statements. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the 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 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 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 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. |
The directors of a company must, in determining how amounts are presented within items in the profit and loss account and balance sheet, have regard to the substance of the reported transaction or arrangement, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practice. |
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 company's auditors are unaware, and each director 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 auditors are aware of that information. |
PRECISION ENGINEERING PLASTICS LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02000951) |
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022 |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Mountsides Limited, are deemed to be reappointed under s487(2) of the Companies Act 2006. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
PRECISION ENGINEERING PLASTICS LTD |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Precision Engineering Plastics Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended 31st December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity 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: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31st December 2022 and of its 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 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 directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the 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 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 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 |
PRECISION ENGINEERING PLASTICS LTD |
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 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, 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 Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page three, 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 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. |
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: |
Based on our understanding of the company and the environment in which it operates, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to but not limited to, Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to increase revenue or reduce expenditure, and management bias in accounting estimates. Audit procedures performed included: |
- Enquiries with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud. |
- Designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability around the nature, timing or extent of our testing. |
- Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations. |
- Reviewing the financial statements for compliance with the Companies Act 2006. |
- Evaluating and challenging the reasonableness of accounting estimates. |
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. |

BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARD 102 - REDUCED DISCLOSURE EXEMPTIONS |
The company satisfies the criteria of being a qualifying entity as defined by the Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Its financial statements are consolidated into the financial statements of its immediate and ultimate parent company, Precision Engineering Plastics (Holdings) Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. Copies of the financial statements of Precision Engineering Plastics (Holdings) Limited are publicly available from Companies House. |
Advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available under paragraph 1.12 of the Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland': |
(a) the requirements of Section 4 Statement of Financial Position paragraph 4.12(a)(iv) |
(b) the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows |
(c) the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d) |
(d) the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7 |
SIGNIFICANT JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES |
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make significant judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates, judgements and assumptions are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The items in the financial statements where judgements, estimates and assumptions have been made include: |
Debtors |
Management applies judgements in evaluating the recoverability of debtors. To the extent that the directors believe debtors not to be recoverable, they have been provided for in the financial statements. |
Stock |
Management applies judgements in evaluating stock for obsolete and slow moving items. This judgement is based on management knowledge of the stock and customer demand, as well as stock age. At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment and written down as appropriate. |

TURNOVER |
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents revenue recognised by the company in respect of goods and services supplied during the year.Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of value added tax and trade discounts. The policies adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows: |
Sale of goods |
Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. This is usually on dispatch of the goods. |
Rendering of services |
When the outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably, turnover from rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion at the balance sheet date. Stage of completion is measured by reference to actual time spent to the total budgeted time. |
Where the outcome cannot be measured reliably, turnover is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable. |
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |
Plant and machinery | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Motor vehicles | - |
GOVERNMENT GRANTS |
During the previous year, the company received payments in respect of the government furlough scheme, which have been recognised within the Statement of Comprehensive Income. |
STOCKS |
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowances for obsolete and slow moving items. Cost includes all direct expenditure and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The company only enters into basic financial instruments that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable and loans to related parties. |
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment of assets are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. |
TAXATION |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the 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 statement of financial position date. |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022 |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
DEFERRED TAX |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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. |
FOREIGN CURRENCIES |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
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. |
PENSION COSTS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
4. | TURNOVER |
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
