Please find below on pages 1 - 38 the Company's Annual Report and Financial Statements

for the year ended 31st March 2024.

 

Key Points

 

Reverse Takeover Opportunity

 

·    Rockpool, a Special Purpose Acquisition Company ("SPAC") Listed on the Standard segment of the Official List, is in a prime position to offer a suitable business with an anticipated market capitalisation in excess of £30 million a pre-packed Main Market Listing on the London Stock Exchange through a Reverse Takeover by Rockpool. 

 

·    Suitable Reverse opportunities are sought from any industry, geographic location or domicile. 

 

·    The anticipated July 2024 announcement of major Listing Rule changes is likely to lead to an even more enhanced cachet for Rockpool if as anticipated the Standard segment of the London Stock Exchange is merged with the Premium listing segment. 

 

·    Rockpool's three Directors are all highly skilled professionals and a Reverse could be completed expeditiously. 



 

 

·    Proposed Reversal into Amcomri Group Ltd ("Amcomri") terminated in April 2024 after Amcomri withdrew. 

 

·    Loss for year £505,677 (2023:  297,089) attributable mainly to professional costs (£543,000) in relation to the proposed Amcomri Reversal.   

 

·    Cash and Cash Equivalents as at 31st March of ££240,819 (2023: £672,558). 

 

·    With the expected recouping of expenses from Amcomri, the Company is anticipated to have a cash balance in excess of £600,000 sufficient to cover the Company's professional expenses in executing a Reverse Takeover. 

 

Richard Beresford, non-Executive Chairman said: 

"Rockpool presents an excellent opportunity for a business to achieve quickly a Listing on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market and the Board will consider suitable approaches regardless of sector, geographic location or domicile. 

"The anticipated outcome of the overhaul of Listing Rules in July 2024 is that the Standard and Premium segments will be merged and that will give Rockpool even greater cachet, which will more than outweigh the additional costs including requiring a sponsor to effect the readmission to the Official List. 

"The Company maintains a very low overhead base and the Directors are confident that a suitable Reverse opportunity will present itself and are actively seeking one."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

 

I hereby present the annual report and audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.  During the year Rockpool Acquisitions PLC ("Rockpool" or "the Company") reported a loss of £505,677 (2023 - loss £297,089). The bulk of these losses relate to professional costs expended in relation to the proposed reverse takeover of Amcomri Group Ltd ("the Amcomri Group" or "Amcomri"). As at 31 March 2024 the Company had £240,819 of cash and cash equivalents.

During the year under review, the Rockpool team and their advisers continued to work diligently towards completing the proposed reverse takeover of the Amcomri Group that had been announced on 15th November 2022.  As I reported in my letter accompanying the Company's interim results to 30 September 2023, the Board had earlier been hopeful that the Amcomri Group acquisition and the resulting readmission to the market would take place during the first half of the 2024 financial year, but the target group had made a number of acquisitions and they, combined with the time taken to undertake audits of the target group, had caused delays to the production of the readmission prospectus and made that target unattainable.  At the time of that letter, readmission was thought to likely to take place in the second half of the 2024 calendar year.  Despite our best efforts, however, that will not now be the case, since, as announced following the end of the financial year, on 24 April 2024, the vendors of the Amcomri Group have informed the Company that they have decided not to proceed with the proposed transaction with Rockpool and wished to withdraw. No written explanation was given by them for this decision.  

The Company has now written to the Amcomri Group to seek recovery from them in accordance with the Letter of Intent ("LOI") of 15th November 2022 of the costs Rockpool that has incurred in connection with the proposed transaction and re-admission.  Those costs amount to approximately £543,000.  No response to that request has been received to date.  The Company will keep the market and shareholders informed of progress in recovering this material debt. 

Assuming that these costs are recovered the Company will be left with cash resources in excess of £660,000 with which to cover its overhead and pursue alternative transactions.   The Board is now actively looking for suitable targets in any industry sector or geographical location.  Preference will be given to businesses that are profitable at least at the EBITDA level.   Please note, that, as announced on 1 December 2023, the Company can no longer benefit from the transitional provisions in the revised Listing Rules which meant that it could have returned to the market with an expected market capitalisation of £700,000.  Any readmission to the Official List going forward will require an expected market capitalisation of £30 million or more.  Furthermore, a major overhaul of the Listing Rules is due to come into effect in July 2024, which will also mean that the Company will almost certainly require a Sponsor to return to the market following a successful reverse takeover.  That requirement is likely to add more cost to that process, but it is not yet clear exactly how much such additional cost will be. 

 

I would like to thank all those who have assisted the Company during the past number of years including advisers and creditors for whose support we remain grateful.   I would also like to thank the shareholders for their patience during the very long periods in which trading in the Company's shares have been suspended.  The Board is working diligently to identify a suitable target as soon as possible so that patience can be amply rewarded in the not-too-distant future.

 

I look forward to a positive year ahead.

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

STRATEGIC REPORT

 

 

The Directors present their Strategic Report for the year ended 31 March 2024.

 

Business Review and Future Developments

 

Rockpool Acquisitions plc ("Rockpool" or "the Company") was incorporated on 21 March 2017 and on 12 July 2017 the Company's share capital was admitted to the Standard Segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.

 

Rockpool was set up as a Special Purpose Acquisition Company ("SPAC") based in Northern Ireland and was originally formed to undertake an acquisition of a company or business headquartered or materially based in Northern Ireland. The Board has since widened its geographic scope and to consider businesses based elsewhere. 

 

On 15th November 2022, the Board announced that it had entered into heads of terms (the "Amcomri HOT") relating to the proposed acquisition of the share capital of Amcomri Group Limited, a group involved in providing specialist engineering and equipment services in the UK and Ireland. On 24 April 2024, the sellers of Amcomri have informed the Company that they have decided not to proceed with the proposed transaction with Rockpool and wished to withdraw. No written explanation was given by them for this decision.  

 

Performance of the Business and Position at the End of the Year

 

The Company reported a loss of £505,677 for the year ended 31 March 2024 (2023 - loss of £297,089).  The bulk of these losses represent the professional costs incurred by the Company in connection with the proposed acquisition of the Amcomri Group and the preparation of a prospectus and related documentation.

 

Net assets as at the year-end 31 March 2024 were £106,498 (2023 - £612,175), with £240,819 in cash balances held at that date (2023 - £672,558). Loans of £15,005 were outstanding at the year-end 31 March 2024 (2023 - £20,462).

 

Future developments

 

On 1 December 2023, the FCA announced major changes to the Listing Rules which impact Rockpool PLC as it is current a Standard Listing on the London Stock Exchange. Companies, such as Rockpool PLC who currently have a Standard Listing will be mapped according to their operations which will be approved by the UKLR. As announced on 1 December 2023, the Company can no longer benefit from the transitional provisions in the revised Listing Rules which meant that it could return to the market with an expected market capitalisation of £700,000.  Any readmission to the Official List going forward will require an expected market capitalisation of £30m or more.  Furthermore, a major overhaul of the Listing Rules is due to come into effect in July 2024, which will also mean that the Company will almost certainly require a sponsor to return to the market following a successful reverse takeover.  That requirement is likely to add more cost to that process, but it is not yet clear exactly how much such additional cost will be. 

 

Key Performance Indicators ('KPIs')

 

The Board monitors the activities and performance of the Company on a regular basis. The primary performance indicator applicable to the Company is Return on Investment ("ROI"). Using ROI is not currently relevant because the Company is yet to complete a corporate acquisition. As noted above, it remains the intention of the Company to effect an acquisition in due course.

 

Given the current nature of the Company's business, the Directors are of the opinion that the primary performance indicator applicable to the Company is the completion of the planned RTO of a target company. The Board is working towards identifying a suitable target and completing such a transaction as soon as reasonably practicable.  The Directors' are of the view that given the straightforward nature of the Company, there are no non-financial performance indicators at this time. 



ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

STRATEGIC REPORT

 

 

Environmental and Social Matters

 

The Company does not currently trade and has no employees other than the Directors. The Company has minimal environmental and social impact in its current state. The Directors will ensure that when the Company makes an acquisition, they have sufficiently considered the acquisition's potential impact on both the environment and its consideration of social corporate responsibilities and will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties

 

 

The Company operates in an uncertain environment and is subject to a number of risk factors. The Directors consider the following risk factors to be of particular relevance to the Company's activities. It should be noted that the list is not exhaustive and other risk factors not presently known or currently deemed immaterial may apply. The risk factors are summarised below:

 

Business Strategy

 

The Company has no operating history (other than the provision of consultancy services to a previous acquisition target) and has not yet acquired a business. The Company may not be able to complete an acquisition in a timely manner or at all, or to fund the operations of a target business if it does not obtain additional funding.

 

If the Company acquires less than either the whole voting control of, or less than the entire equity interest in, a target company or business, its ability to influence the strategy of the target may be limited and third-party minority shareholders may dispute any strategy the Company may have decided to pursue.

 

Funding an Acquisition

 

Further funds, in addition to the equity proceeds raised on or before its original admission to the market, may be needed in order to complete the acquisition of a target business once it has been identified. The Company may therefore need to seek additional equity or debt financing to complete a transaction and may be unsuccessful in attempting to do so.

 

Retention of Key Personnel

 

The Company is dependent on Directors to assess potential acquisition opportunities that have been identified by the Directors or Cordovan Capital Management Limited (or any other corporate finance adviser appointed in place of Cordovan) and to execute acquisitions, and the loss of the services of any of the Directors could materially adversely affect its ability to implement its business strategy, thereby having a material adverse effect on its financial condition and result of operations.



 

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

STRATEGIC REPORT

 

 

Section 172 Statement

 

Section 172 (1) of the Companies Act 2006 obliges the Directors to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of the Company's members as a whole. This section specifies that the Directors must act in good faith when promoting the success of the Company and in doing so have regard (amongst other things) to:

 

a.   the likely consequences of any decision in the long term,

b.   the interests of the Company's employees,

c.   the need to foster the Company's business relationship with suppliers, customers and others,

d.   the impact of the Company's operations on the community and environment,

e.   the desirability of the Company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct, and

f.    the need to act fairly as between members of the Company.

 

The Board of Directors is collectively responsible for formulating the Company's strategy, which is to identify an acquisition of a company or business which is likely to be headquartered or materially based in Northern Ireland, although the Board of Directors has stated that it will consider targets that are headquartered or materially based elsewhere.



 

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

STRATEGIC REPORT

 

The Board places equal importance on all shareholders and strives for transparent and effective external communications, within the regulatory confines of a main market listed company. The primary communication tool for regulatory matters and matters of material substance is through the Regulatory News Service, ("RNS"). The Company's website is also updated regularly and provides further details on the business as well as links to helpful content.

 

The Directors believe they have acted in the way they consider most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole, as required by Section 172 (1) of the Companies Act 2006.

 

This Strategic Report was approved by the Board of Directors on 27 June 2024

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

 

 

The Directors present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.

 

Principal Activity

 

Rockpool is a Special Purpose Acquisition Company based in Northern Ireland whose shares were admitted to the Standard Segment of the official list and to trading on the Main Market on 12 July 2017. The Company was formed to undertake an acquisition of a company or business headquartered or materially based in Northern Ireland with a valuation of up to £20 million. It has now widened the search to consider companies based elsewhere.

 

Directors' Indemnities

 

There is no directors' indemnity insurance during the year ended 31 March 2024 (2023- £Nil). 

 

Events after the End of the Reporting Period

 

The only significant events since the end of the reporting period have been the termination of the proposed acquisition of the Amcomri Group [and the making of a claim by the Company to recover] the costs it incurred in relation to that proposed acquisition and the subsequent readmission to listing and trading.

 

Dividends

 

No dividend was paid during the year (2023- £Nil) and the Directors do not recommend payment of a final dividend (2023- £Nil).

 

Corporate Governance

 

As a Company listed on the standard segment of the Official List, the Company is not required to comply with the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code.

 

The Company has chosen, so far as appropriate given the Company's size and the constitution of the Board, to comply with the Corporate Governance Guidelines for Small and Mid-Size Quoted Companies ("the Guidelines") published by the Quoted Companies Alliance (QCA):

 

(http://www.theqca.com/shop/guides/143986/corporate-governance-code-2018.thtml).

 

The Company has deviated from the Guidelines in the following respects:

 

·     Given the size of the Board and the Company's current size, certain provisions of the Guidelines (in particular the provisions relating to the composition of the Board and the division of responsibilities), are not being complied with by the Company as the Board considers these provisions to be inapplicable.

·     Until a suitable acquisition is completed the Company will not have separate risk, nomination or remuneration committees. The Board as a whole will instead review risk matters, as well as the Board's size, structure and composition and the scale and structure of the Directors' fees, taking into account the interests of shareholders and the performance of the Company.

·     The Board do not consider an internal audit function to be necessary for the Company at this time due to the limited number of transactions.

The Directors are responsible for internal control in the Company and for reviewing effectiveness. Due to the size of the Company, all key decisions are made by the Board. The Directors have reviewed the effectiveness of the Company's systems during the period under review and consider that there have been no material losses, contingencies or uncertainties due to weaknesses in the controls.

 

Details of the Company's business model and strategy are included in the Chairman's Statement and Strategic Report.

 

 

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

 

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

 

Corporate Governance (continued)

 

Role of the Board

 

The Board sets the Company's strategy, ensuring that the necessary resources are in place to achieve the agreed priorities. It is accountable to shareholders for the creation and delivery of long-term shareholder value. To achieve this, the Board directs and monitors the Company's affairs within a framework of controls which enable risk to be assessed and managed effectively.

 

Board Meetings

 

Given the limited activities of the Company in the year under review, the Board has met infrequently and conference calls are arranged to consider matters which require decisions or discussions. Mike Irvine and Richard Beresford are in frequent contact with each other to discuss any issues of concern and strategic issues.

 

Conflicts of interest

 

A Director has a duty to avoid a situation in which he has, or can have, a direct or indirect interest that conflicts, or possibly may conflict with the interests of the Company. The Board has satisfied itself that there is no compromise to the independence of those Directors who have appointments on the Boards of, or relationships with, companies outside of the Company. The Board requires Directors to declare all appointments and other situations which could result in a possible conflict of interest.

 

Audit Committee

 

The Audit Committee reviews and reports to the Board on the effectiveness of the system of internal control. Given the size of the Company and the relative simplicity of the systems, the Board considers that there is no current requirement for an internal control function. The procedures that have been established are considered appropriate for a Company of its size. The Audit Committee currently comprises Mike Irvine, who is the chair, and Neil Adair.

 

Carbon and Greenhouse Emissions

 

The Company currently has no trade, no employees other than the Directors and does not have any dedicated office space, therefore the Company has minimal carbon or greenhouse gas emissions and it is not practical to obtain emissions data at this stage. It does not have responsibility for any emission-producing sources under Companies Act 2006.

 

Directors and Directors' Interests

 

The Directors who held office during the period and to the date of approval of these Financial Statements had the following beneficial interests in the ordinary shares of the Company.

Financial Risk Management

 

The Company has a simple capital structure and its principal financial asset is cash. The Company has no material exposure to market risk and the Directors manage its exposure to liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves.

 

Further details regarding risks are detailed in note 2(i) to the financial statements.

 

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities

 

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 year. Under that law the Directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK-adopted international 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 year.

 

In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:

 

·     select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

·     make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable, relevant and reliable;

 

 

 

 

 

ROCKPOOL ACQUISITIONS PLC

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

 

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities (continued)

 

·     state whether applicable international accounting standards in conformity with requirements of the Companies Act 2006 have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

·     assess the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters relating to going concern; and

·     use the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the company, or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative to do so.

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 and the Directors' Remuneration Report 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 are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of the financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

 

The Directors consider that the report and financial statements, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information necessary for shareholders to assess the Company's position, performance, business model and strategy.

 

Each of the Directors, whose names and functions are listed on page 2, confirm that, to the best of their knowledge:

 

·     The Company financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with UK-Adopted IAS as permitted by the Companies Act 2006, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and loss of the Company; and

·     The Strategic Report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Company, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that it faces.

Provision of Information to Auditor

 

So far as each of the Directors is aware at the time this report is approved:

 

·     there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditor is unaware; and

·     the Directors have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

Auditors

 

The auditor, Grant Thornton (NI) LLP, will be proposed for reappointment in accordance with Section 489 of the Companies Act 2006.  Grant Thornton (NI) LLP has indicated their willingness to continue in office as auditor. Approved by the Board on 27 June 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

Report on the audit of the financial statements

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Rockpool Acquisitions PLC ("Company"), which comprise the Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cashflows for the year ended 31 March 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the financial statements is applicable law and UK-adopted international accounting standards (UK-adopted IAS).

In our opinion, Rockpool Acquisitions PLC's financial statements:

·    give a true and fair view in accordance with UK-adopted IAS of the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Company as at 31 March 2024 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended; and

·    have been properly 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 'Responsibilities of the auditor 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 United Kingdom, including the FRC's Ethical Standard and the ethical pronouncements established by Chartered Accountants Ireland, applied as determined to be appropriate in the circumstances for the entity. 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

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

·    the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or

the directors have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the validity of the directors' assessment of the Company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included:

·    We assessed and challenged the key assumptions used by management in prospective financial information, namely budgets and forecasts which covered at least 12 months from date of approval of financial statements. In particular we carried out an analysis on the key assumptions within the model to determine the level of working capital head room available for the Company under normal trading conditions; and

·    We compared budgeted financial results to actual financial results for the current year to critically assess management's point of estimate;

·    We reviewed post year end results and bank statements to verify that there was no unusual or material cash outflows after the year end which had not been considered as part of management's budget review.

 

 

 

 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

 

(continued)

 

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 the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

We have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to the directors' statement in the financial statements about whether the directors considered it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

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

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current financial period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) we identified, including those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation of resources in the audit, and the directing of efforts of the engagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and therefore we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

 

Overall audit strategy

We designed our audit by determining materiality and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we looked at where the directors made subjective judgements, for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. We also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including evaluating whether there was any evidence of potential bias that could result in a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

 

Based on our considerations as set out below, our areas of focus included:

·    Management override of control

 

How we tailored the audit scope

The Company has been set up with the principal activity being that of a special purpose acquisition vehicle to facilitate the reverse acquisition of a larger trading business. We tailored the scope of our audit,  taking into account the areas where the risk of misstatement was considered material to the Company, taking into account the nature of the Company's business and the industry in which it operates. We performed an audit of the complete financial information of the Company.

 

In establishing the overall approach to our audit, we assessed the risk of material misstatement at a Company level, taking into account the nature, likelihood and potential magnitude of any misstatement. As part of our risk assessment, we considered the control environment in place at Rockpool Acquisitions PLC.

 

Materiality and audit approach

The scope of our audit is influenced by our application of materiality. We set certain quantitative thresholds for materiality. These, together with qualitative considerations, such as our understanding of the entity and its environment, the history of misstatements, the complexity of the Company and the reliability of the control environment, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and on the financial statements as a whole.

 

Based on our professional judgement, we determined materiality for the Company financial statements as a whole to be £1,000 (2023: £2,000) for the year ended 31 March 2023, determined as being 0.25% of total assets (2023: 0.25%).   We have applied this benchmark because the main objective of the Company is that of a special purpose acquisition vehicle to facilitate the reverse acquisition of a larger trading business.

 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

 

(continued)

 

Materiality and audit approach (continued)

We have set Performance materiality for the Company at £1,000 (2023: £1,000),  having considered the risk of misstatements in prior years, business risks and fraud risks associated with the entity and it's the control environment. This is to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that the aggregate of uncorrected and undetected misstatements in the financial statements exceeds materiality for the financial statements as a whole.   

 

We agreed with the audit committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above 5% of overall materiality.

 

Significant matters identified

The risks of material misstatement that had the greatest effect on our audit, including the allocation of our resources and effort, are set out below as significant matters together with an explanation of how we tailored our audit to address these specific areas in order to provide an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our audit.


Management override of control - financial statement level risk

 

Description of significant matter

Our audit approach

Under ISA (UK) 240 "The Auditor's responsibility to consider fraud in an audit of financial statements", there is a presumed significant risk of management override of internal controls.

The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with management.

They are responsible for establishing a robust system of internal control designed to support the achievement of policies, aims and objectives and to manage the risks facing the entity; this includes the risk of fraud.

 

Our audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error.

 

Based on the operations, aims and objectives of the company, we have determined that this area requires significant auditor attention.

 

Details on the basis of preparation of the financial statements can be found in Note 2.

 

 

Our procedures included, but not limited to:

·    Extracting source documentation which included trial balances and nominal ledgers, and reconciling this source material to the opening and closing financial information;

·    Selecting journal entries to test on a sample basis, which has a direct correlation to where we have assessed the key risks in respect of fraud and includes our assessment of management override of control. We incorporated elements of unpredictability when selecting items for testing and also placed focus upon significant unusual transactions which would appear to be outside the normal course of business. We obtained supporting documentation and evidence of authorisation and review.;

·    Enquiring of management about risks of fraud and the controls put in place to address those risks. Enquiring the management as well about inappropriate and unusual activity; and

·    An assessment of whether the financial results and accounting records include any significant or unusual transactions which were not in line with UK-adopted IAS.

We completed our planned audit procedures, with no exceptions noted.

 



 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

 

(continued)

 

 

Other information

Other information comprises information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon, including the Directors' Report, the Strategic Report, and Remuneration Report. The directors are responsible for the other information. 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 in the financial statements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 any material misstatements in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report. 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 and the part of the directors' remuneration report to be audited 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 management and those charged with governance for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement, management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view in accordance with UK-adopted IAS, and for such internal control as directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is 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 management either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process

 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

 

(continued)

 

Responsibilities of the auditor for the audit of the financial statements

The objectives of an auditor 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 their opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

A further description of an auditor's 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 auditor's report.

 

 

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 material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatement in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

Based on our understanding of the Company and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to London Stock Exchange Listing Rules,  Financial Conduct Authority Handbook of Rules and Guidance, Data Privacy law, and Employment Law, 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 preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. The Audit engagement partner considered the experience and expertise of the engagement team to ensure that the team had appropriate competence and capabilities to identify or recognise non-compliance with the laws and regulation. 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 manipulate financial performance and management bias through judgements and assumptions in significant accounting estimates, in particular in relation to significant one-off or unusual transactions. We apply professional scepticism through the audit to consider potential deliberate omission or concealment of significant transactions, or incomplete/inaccurate disclosures in the financial statements.

 

In response to these principal risks, our audit procedures included but were not limited to:

·    enquiries of management board of directors on the policies and procedures in place regarding compliance with laws and regulations, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;

·    inspection of the Company's regulatory and legal correspondence and review of minutes of director's meetings during the year to corroborate inquiries made;

·    gaining an understanding of the entity's current activities, the scope of authorisation and the effectiveness of its control environment to mitigate risks related to fraud;

·    discussion amongst the engagement team in relation to the identified laws and regulations and regarding the risk of fraud, and remaining alert to any indications of non-compliance or opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of financial statements throughout the audit;

·    identifying and testing journal entries to address the risk of inappropriate journals and management override of controls

·    designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability around the nature, timing or extent of our testing; and;

·    review of the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and inquiries of management.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ROCKPOOL ACQUISITION PLC

 

(continued)

 

The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities including fraud rests with those charged with governance and management. As with any audit, there remains a risk of non-detection or irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or override of internal controls.

The purpose of our audit work and to whom we owe our responsibilities

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.

 

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

We were appointed by the Board of Directors on 17 November 2023 to audit the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024. The period of total uninterrupted engagement including previous renewals and reappointments of the firm is two years.

We have not provided non-audit services prohibited by the FRC's Ethical Standard and have remained independent of the entity in conducting the audit.

The audit opinion is consistent with the additional report to the audit committee.

- Classification of liabilities as Current or Non-Current(Amendments to IAS 1)

- Lease liability in a Sale and Leaseback ( Amendment to IFRS 16)

- Supplier Finance Agreements(Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7)

- Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1)

-Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21)

 

These amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements in the period of initial application and therefore no disclosures will be made.

 

The Directors do not expect that the adoption of the standards listed above will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company in future periods.

 

b)      Going concern

 

The preparation of financial statements requires an assessment on the validity of the going concern assumption.

 

The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the Financial Statements which demonstrate that the Company has more than adequate cash reserves to meet its the Company will continue to be able to meet its obligations as they fall due for a period of at least one year from date of approval of these Financial Statements. Accordingly, the Board believes it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

 

 

c)      Financial Instruments

 

Financial assets

 

Financial assets, comprising solely of trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents, are classified as loans and receivables. They are initially recognised at fair value plus transactions costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment under the expected credit loss model.

 

The classification depends on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial assets are measured at amortised cost only if both of the following criteria are met:

 

·     The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; and

·     The contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

c)      Financial Instruments (continued)

 

The amount of the expected credit loss is measured as the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that are expected to be received (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate (EIR).

 

The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of allowance account and recognition of the loss in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Allowances for credit losses on financial assets are assessed collectively. Collectively assessed impairment allowances cover credit losses inherent in portfolios of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics when there is objective evidence to suggest that they contain impaired financial assets, but the individual impaired items cannot yet be identified.

 

In assessing collective impairment, the Company uses information including historical trends in the probability of default (although this is limited given the relatively short history of the Company), timing of recoveries and the amount of expected loss, adjusted for management's judgement as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical evidence. Default rates, loss rates and the expected timing of future recoveries are regularly benchmarked against actual outcomes to ensure that they remain appropriate.

 

IFRS 9 suggests the use of reasonable forward-looking information to enhance ECL models. The Company incorporates relevant forward-looking information into the loss provisioning model.

 

Financial liabilities

 

Financial liabilities, comprising trade and other payables, are held at amortised cost.

 

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 

De-recognition of Financial Instruments

 

i.       Financial Assets

 

A financial asset is derecognised where:

 

·     the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired;

 

·     the Company retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a pass-through arrangement; or

 

·     the Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the asset, and either has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

 

ii.       Financial Liabilities

 

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

d)      Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise current and deposit balances with banks and similar institutions. This definition is also used for the Statement of Cash Flows.

 

The Company considers the credit ratings of banks in which it holds funds in order to reduce exposure to credit risk. The Company will only keep its holdings of cash and cash equivalents with institutions which have a minimum credit rating of 'AA'.

 

e)      Revenue from contracts with customers

 

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services. Revenue is shown net of value added taxes.

 

Revenue is recognised when the amount can be reliably measured, and it is probable that future economic benefit will flow to the Company under the terms of any sale agreements. This normally corresponds to the period over which services are provided. There was no revenue earned in the current year.

 

Other income comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from the provision of other services that are not the principal activity of the business.

 

f)       Taxation

 

Income tax represents the sum of current tax and deferred tax.

 

Current tax

 

Current tax is the tax currently payable based on the taxable result for the period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or recognised in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

 

Current tax is calculated at the tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the Statement of Financial Position date.

 

Deferred tax

 

Deferred tax is recognised using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the Financial Statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

 

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the Statement of Financial Position date and are expected to apply to the period when the deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

g)      Segmental reporting

 

The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is considered to be the Board of Directors. They consider that the Company operates in a single segment of identifying and assessing acquisition targets, which is the only activity the Company is involved in and is therefore considered as the only operating/reportable segment. As a result, the financial information of the single segment is the same as set out in the statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of changes in equity and Statement of Cash Flows.

 

h)      Equity

 

Equity comprises the following:

 

·     Share capital represents the nominal value of the equity shares;

 

·     Share premium represents the consideration less nominal value of issued shares and costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares;

 

·     Retained deficit represents cumulative net profits and losses recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

 

i)       Financial Risk Management

 

Financial Risk Factors

 

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: Market price risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's overall risk management programme seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance. None of these risks are hedged.

 

The Company has no foreign currency transactions or borrowings, so is not exposed to market risk in terms of foreign exchange risk or interest rate risk.

 

Risk management is undertaken by the Board of Directors.

 

Credit risk

 

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents as well as any outstanding receivables. Management does not expect any losses from non-performance of these receivables. The amount of exposure to any individual counter party is subject to a limit, which is assessed by the Board.

 

The Company considers the credit ratings of banks in which it holds funds in order to reduce exposure to credit risk, which is stated under the cash and cash equivalents accounting policy.

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk arises from the Company's management of working capital. It is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due. The monies returned to the Company by Greenview are being held as cash to enable the Company to meet its ongoing commitments and to fund a transaction as and when a suitable target is found.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

i)       Financial Risk Management (continued)

 

Controls over expenditure are carefully managed, in order to maintain the Company's cash reserves whilst it targets a suitable transaction.

 

Capital risk management

 

The Company's objectives when managing capital is to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure.

 

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.

 

The Company monitors capital on the basis of the total equity held by the Company, being £106,498 as at 31 March 2024 (2023 - £612,175).

 

 

j)       Finance income

 

                  All finance income is accounted for on an accrual basis.

        

         k)      Expenses and Finance Costs

 

All expenses and finance costs are accounted for on an accrual basis. 

 

Operating expenses are recognised in the profit and loss account upon utilisation of the service or as incurred.

 

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is necessary to complete and prepare the asset for its intended sale or use. Other borrowing costs are expensed when incurred and are reported as borrowing costs.  

        

         l)       Government Grants

                 

Government Grants are recognised when it is reasonable to expect that the grant will be received and that all related conditions have been met, usually on submission of a valid claim for payment. Grants in respect of capital expenditure are credited to a deferred income account and released to the profit and loss account over the useful life of the asset. Grants of a revenue nature are credited to income so as to match then with the expenditure to which they relate.

                 

  m)     Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

 

The Directors make estimates and assumptions concerning the future as required by the preparation of the financial statements in conformity with international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no significant estimates or judgements in these financial statements.

Factors Affecting the Tax Charge of Future Periods

 

 

The corporation tax rate increased to 25% from 1 April 2023 for companies generating taxable profits of more than £250,000.

 

Tax losses available to be carried forward by the Company at 31 March 2024 against future profits are estimated at £575,884 (2023 - £271,449).

 

A deferred tax asset has not been recognised in respect of these losses in view of uncertainty as to the level and timing of future taxable profits.
