Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2018 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 October 2018. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The principal activity of Megasteel Ltd is the distribution of prestressing wire and strand, a vital product used in the manufacture of |
prestressed concrete products and post tensioned concrete structures. Megasteel is the leading supplier of these products in the UK |
and we will continue to strengthen this position during the next financial year. |
During the past year the company continued to grow strongly increasing both sales and profits. The company remains financially |
strong with a highly liquid balance sheet and substantial cash resources. |
The market that we sell most of our products into - UK housing - continues to grow year on year but there remain a shortage of |
housing. The UK needs many more houses to be built in the next few years and Megasteel is well placed to benefit from this expected |
growth. |
As I said last year - customers remain the focus of everything we do as a company and we welcome and encourage their feedback to |
us on how we are doing as a company. Each year as part of our ISO9001 certification we undertake a customer survey that looks at |
our customers perception of how Megasteel is performing in a number of areas. We are pleased that they continue to hold us in high |
regard and we will make sure that the excellent service we offer to our customers continues long into the future. |
Our suppliers are also of critical importance to the success of our business and I am pleased to report that we have excellent |
relationships with all of our suppliers and we have expanded our supply base significantly over the past year. We now buy steel in |
many different countries around the world in the past year we have bought steel in Thailand, South Africa, Tunisia, Hungary, Brazil |
China, Colombia and Turkey. |
The company's directors spend a lot of time visiting and working with our suppliers to maintain and improve on these excellent |
relationships. |
Finally there has been a lot of talk about BREXIT and the risks that may come with this. Megasteel's position on this is that we |
welcome the UK leaving the European Union and taking back control of many of the aspects of the economy and policy that is |
currently ceded to the EU. |
We would welcome the UK leaving the EU with 'no deal' and, as we trade mostly on WTO rules, we have no fear of this. We hope and |
trust that UK politicians will follow through on the promise to leave the EU that was voted for by a majority of UK voters. |
We also recognise as a company that there are many politicians and organisations that would like to thwart BREXIT, either watering it |
down or making life so difficult and creating so many fear stories that they hope BREXIT can be cancelled. |
Whatever the final outcome is Megasteel will continue to thrive and we will make the most of whatever opportunities that will arise. |
We believe that the next financial year will be an excellent and exciting one for the company. |
If you want know more about the company please visit our website www.megasteel.co.uk and in particular we would encourage you to |
look at our news section where you will learn a lot more about what we do! |

Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2018 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The directors continue to review the risks and uncertainties that the company faces or may potentially be faced with. Measures are put |
in place to mitigate these risks and uncertainties and the company's strong and liquid balance sheet puts us in a very strong position. |
The biggest risk that we run is that we extend credit to most of our customers, we mitigate this by having a well-managed and |
proactive credit control policy. All customers are monitored every month for payment performance and if they are overdue they are |
chased to find out why. If a customer is late in paying we will not extend further credit without an understanding of why and a director |
will make a decision. Our record of bad debt over many years is excellent and this can be directly attributed to this policy. |

DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 November 2017 to the date of this report. |
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. |
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 or she ought to have taken as a director |
in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of |
that information. |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, MHA Monahans, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Megasteel Ltd |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Megasteel Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended 31 October 2018 which comprise the |
Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement 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 31 October 2018 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 |
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. |
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 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. |
Opinion 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. |
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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Megasteel Ltd |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, 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. |
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. |
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 a Report of the Auditors 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. |

Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2018 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Megasteel Ltd is a |
and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
2. | STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies |
have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. |
Functional and presentation currency |
The company's functional and presentation currency is Sterling (£). |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the Company's accounting policies, management is required to make judgements, |
estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be |
relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are |
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision |
and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. |
There are no key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial |
statements: |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Turnover is reduced for customer returns, |
rebates or other similar allowances and is net of value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of |
goods. |
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied: |
- the company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; |
- the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree associated with ownership |
nor effective control over the goods sold; |
- the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; |
- it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction can be measured reliably. |
Specifically, revenue from the sale of goods is primarily recognised upon delivery of the goods to the customer. |
Goodwill |
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any |
accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Impairment of assets |
At each reporting date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment to determine whether |
there is any indication that any items of property, plant and equipment have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an |
indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset is estimated and compared with its carrying |
amount. If estimated recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and |
an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss. |
Megasteel Ltd (Registered number: 02665353) |
Notes to the Financial Statements - continued |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2018 |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Stocks |
Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Stock is recognised as an |
expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. |
At the end of each reporting period stock is assessed for impairment. If an item of stock is impaired, the identified stock is |
reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment is recognised in the profit and loss account. |
Where a reversal of the impairment is recognised the impairment charge is reversed, up to the original impairment loss, and is |
recognised as a credit in the profit and loss account. |
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 balance sheet date. |
Taxation |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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 balance sheet 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. |
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. |

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2018 |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
The company has chosen to adopt the requirements of sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of the measurement and |
disclosure of financial instruments. |
Trade and other debtors |
Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest |
method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In |
such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly |
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, |
bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. |
Impairment of financial assets |
Financial assets, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are |
considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the |
initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. |
For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include: |
- significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or |
- breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or |
- it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or |
- the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties. |
For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually |
are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables |
could include the company's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the |
portfolio past the average credit period of 30 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions |
that correlate with default on receivables. |
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the |
asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset's original |
effective interest rate. |
For financial assets carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's |
carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a |
similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods. |
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception |
of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable |
is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously |
written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are |
recognised in profit or loss. |
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and |
the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised |
impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the |
impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. |

Trade and other creditors |
Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective |
interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost. |
Related parties |
For the purposes of these financial statements, a party is considered to be related to the company if: |
(i) the party has the ability, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, to control the Company or exercise |
significant influence over the company in making financial and operating policy decisions, or has joint control over the |
company; |
(ii) the company and the party are subject to common control; |
(iii) the party is an associate of the company or a joint venture in which the company is a venturer; |
(iv) the party is a member of key management personnel of the company or the company's parent, or a close family member |
of such an individual, or is an entity under the control, joint control or significant influence of such individuals; |
(v) the party is a close family member of a party referred to in (i) or is an entity under the control, joint control or significant |
influence of such individuals; or |
(vi) the party is a post-employment benefit plan which is for the benefit of employees of the company or of any entity that is a |
related party of the company. |
Close family members of an individual are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that |
individual in their dealings with the entity. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, |
it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. |
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a |
pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The |
increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense. |
