Directors' Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2019.
Directors of the company
The directors who held office during the year were as follows:
Going concern
In accordance with the Financial Reporting Council’s ‘Going Concern & Liquidity Risk Guidance for Directors of UK Companies 2009,’ the directors of all companies are now required to provide disclosures regarding the going concern basis of accounting. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and have continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
The directors have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and detailed the effects and countermeasures taken in the Strategic report. They have concluded that while there has been impact in the short term, the actions taken mean that there should be no lasting effect on the results or position.
Disclosure of information to the auditors
Each director has taken the steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. The directors confirm that there is no relevant information that they know of and of which they know the auditors are unaware.
Reappointment of auditors
Hazlewoods have expressed their willingness to continue in office.

Strategic Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30 September 2019.
Principal activity
The principal activity of the company is the manufacture of manipulated aluminium pipe and tube assemblies for the automotive heating, ventilation and air conditioning market; and copper and aluminium pipes and assemblies for the road transport refrigeration market.
Business review and the impact of COVID-19
During the year the company saw a decrease in turnover to £9.7m (2018 - £10.1m) at a gross profit margin of 26.4% (2018 - 26.0%), resulting in a gross profit of £2.6m (2018 - £2.6m). Administrative expenses were incurred during the year of £2.6m (2018 - £3.0m), resulting in an operating loss of £72k (2018 - £83k).
The company has two main areas of operation – automotive air conditioning (“Automotive”); and refrigerated road transport (“Refrigeration”) – and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have been markedly different in each.
In Automotive, the cessation in March of vehicle manufacture by OEMs in the UK and Europe resulted in a reduction of demand and revenues to nil. The company took immediate action and placed those employees affected on furlough using the UK Government’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (“CJRS”). As OEMs restart production and confirm demand forecasts, staff are being brought back into work and off CJRS. This process is reviewed on a periodic basis in order to ensure that staffing levels and the associated costs continue to be matched to the required efficient manufacturing volumes.
In Refrigeration, initial demand reduction was not material as food retail was one of the sectors that was unaffected by the virus and manufacturing continued at normal levels. However, in April the company’s key Refrigeration customer reduced its demand forecasts in the very short term to a level that made operation of the manufacturing site unviable. A decision was taken to place the company's entire workforce in the CJRS scheme for April. The demand reduction experienced was short-lived and manufacturing restarted in May.
Key performance indicators
The company’s directors are of the opinion that key performance indicators are important. The company uses a number of indicators to monitor and improve the development, performance and position of the business. The indicators are reviewed and updated to meet changes in the internal and external environments.
As a result of the anticipated impacts of COVID-19, the company introduced a series of additional specific daily KPIs to identify and provide early warning of any effects of the virus and lockdown. These KPIs enabled the actions detailed above to be taken as soon as required in order to mitigate the immediate effects of the pandemic. The same KPIs have also provided the management information required to reverse or amend actions taken as soon as possible.
In addition to the additional KPIs and matching staff levels to customer demand through the use of the CJRS, the company ran a forward forecast model. The forecast considered a number of scenarios and identified the funding and headroom required for the company to trade through to capitalise on the new business wins in 2020 and 2021.

Strategic Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Principal risks and uncertainties
The company is subject to the same general risks and uncertainties that affect any other business such as legislative changes, shifts in general economic conditions and the impact of competition.
In addition to the company’s principal business risks usually considered in this section, COVID-19 has generated its own specific risks. These fall into three main categories:
Staff
The safe operation of the company’s manufacturing and supporting activities is essential both to ensure the health and safety of the workforce and for the company to retain the skills that it needs . Revised working practices are in place at the company’s factory to enable safe working in line with current government guidelines.
Profitability
The company has experienced a period of diminished profitability as a result of significantly reduced customer demand and associated revenues. It has closely monitored demand and adjusted staff levels accordingly. Where possible, the CJRS has been used to achieve these required costs savings.
Working capital
A knock-on effect of reduced revenues and gross margins has seen an overall reduction in working capital for the company. Using the likely returns to pre-COVID-19 demand levels to create a new forward forecast, the company has worked closely with its bank to secure a facility with the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (“CBILS”).
In addition to the specific COVID-19 risks detailed, the other principal risks and uncertainties that may impact the company are detailed below. There may be other risks and uncertainties which are not yet known or which are currently considered to be immaterial but later turn out to have a material impact.
External risks
The company's operations are subject to a wide range of laws and regulations including employment, environmental and health and safety legislation. The company pays careful attention to legislative and proposed changes governing materials used in the manufacturing process and end uses and works closely with customers to adapt products to meet these. The company has a health and safety manager responsible for compliance and performance in this area and uses external advisors in other areas such as employment.
Raw materials costs are based on global exchange pricing. The company manages exposure to changing prices both by buying forward on fixed price contracts and managing pricing through raw material price escalator mechanisms in major sales contracts. Management monitors sales performance and order intake weekly in order to pre-empt any changes in market demand.
The effects of Brexit were identified as a risk with both unquantified likelihood and unquantified impact in the Strategic Report for the previous year. While the risk remains, the agreement to exit the EU with a plan for a negotiated settlement by the end of 2020 means that, its overall importance has been assessed as lower - both intrinsically and also when considered against the far more immediate challenges around COVID-19.
TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Strategic Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Operational risks
The company operates in a competitive market both in the UK and in its export markets. A strong focus on new technical product development and the maintaining of strong customer relationships helps to reduce the risk of losing market share.
The company's ability to manufacture and sell products is governed by a predictable and constant supply of raw materials. Continuity of this supply is managed using business systems to forecast future materials requirements and is ensured through regular liaison between production planning, procurement and suppliers. As a manufacturing business, the company is dependent on its key production equipment. To mitigate this risk it operates a planned maintenance and replacement programme. In addition, catastrophic loss risk is insured against.
TEAM supplies the automotive and refrigeration markets and these demand best pricing and quality assurance. The company continues to invest in quality systems and operates a quality circle. To remain competitive, the company continuously improves its processes and adds automation where justified in order to remove cost and waste from its operations.
Financial risks
The company finances its operations from a combination of cash reserves from retained profits, bank borrowings and debtor financing.
The company is subject to the credit risk of bad debts arising from non-payment by its customers. Risk is tightly managed internally by the finance team.
The company is exposed to currency risk resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates in respect of products sourced in one currency and sold in another. The company has primary exposure to the the Euro, with additional exposure to the US Dollar. The company manages its short-term risk using mechanisms available to a company of its size including balancing purchases and sales in certain currencies. Over the longer term, the risk remains although steps can be taken to reduce this through purchasing policy without adversely affecting the competitiveness of the business.
Outlook
While the period from the year end to date has had its unique challenges, the company is well placed for the remainder of 2020 and beyond.
When reviewing new business, it has been confirmed on both new Automotive platforms (with protected IP) and a new Refrigeration product family. It has also further leveraged its Refrigeration expertise and expanded into the domestic heating sector.
In conjunction with the new business won for 2020 and beyond, the company has also secured bridging funding under the CBILS. This is sufficient for current operations to continue until the new business is brought online and the increased profitability can be delivered.
TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Strategic Report for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Financial position
The directors have assessed the company’s usual sources of debt, debtor financing, and internal cash generation, along with the additional CBILS facility secured and determined that they are confident that the company has adequate financial resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future and is financially sound. At the end of the year, net current assets were £115k (2018 - net current liabilities of £182k) and net assets were £1.4m (2018 - £1.6m).

Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, Directors' 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 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 apply them consistently; |
• | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
• | state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards has been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and |
• | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are 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.
TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 30 September 2019, which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, 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 30 September 2019 and of its loss 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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
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. |
However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. For example, it is difficult to evaluate all of the potential implications of the current COVID-19 outbreak on the company’s trade, employees, customers, suppliers and the wider economy.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report 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.
TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Opinion on other matter 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 Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
|
• |
the Strategic Report and Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our 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 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 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 7, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
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 auditor's report.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
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.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except for, where disclosed in these accounting policies, certain items that are shown at fair value.
The presentational currency of the financial statements is Pounds Sterling, being the functional currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand Pounds.
Summary of disclosure exemptions
Team Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 102 and has therefore taken advantage of the disclosure exemptions available to it in respect of its financial statements. Exemptions have been taken in relation to the presentation of a cash flow statement and related party disclosures relating to group balances.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Going concern
The directors have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and detailed the effects and countermeasures taken in the Strategic report. They have concluded that while there has been impact in the short term, the actions taken mean that there should be no lasting effect on the results or position. Specifically, these are:
• The reduction of costs in line with revenues by placing staff into the CJRS as applicable and a continuing review of these and other costs.
• The securing of a CBILS facility to provide sufficient working capital and headroom to bridge the short-term requirements.
• The securing of new, profitable business from both Refrigeration and Automotive customers.
After reviewing the company's forecasts and projections, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated 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.
Judgements
The directors are required to make various judgements and estimations in respect of the fair value of stock held. |
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
No key sources of estimation uncertainty have been identified by management in preparing these financial statements other than those detailed in these accounting policies.
Turnover
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.
The company recognises revenue when: the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.
Research and development
Research and development expenditure is written off in the year in which it is incurred.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised in income once the conditions for receipt have been met.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit and loss account, except that a charge attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
The current corporation tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Freehold land |

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Goodwill
Goodwill is amortised over its useful life, which shall not exceed five years if a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made.
Negative goodwill
Negative goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities. In line with the requirements of FRS 102, negative goodwill is amortised to the profit and loss account in the periods in which the acquired non-monetary assets are recovered through depreciation or sale.
Amortisation
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:
|
Asset class |
Amortisation method and rate |
|
Negative goodwill |
Over 17 years |
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. All trade debtors are repayable within one year and hence are included at the undiscounted cost of cash expected to be received. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debtors.
Stocks
Stock and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Net realisable value is based on selling price less anticipated costs to completion and selling costs. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Raw materials are purchase cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Work in progress and finished goods are the cost of direct material and labour plus attributable overheads on a normal level of activity.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and all are repayable within one year and hence are included at the undiscounted amount of cash expected to be paid.
TEAM Precision Pipe Assemblies Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2019
Borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Profit and Loss Account over the period of the relevant borrowing.
Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
Leases
Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee.
Assets held under finance leases are recognised at the lower of their fair value at inception of the lease and the present value of the minimum lease payments. These assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the Balance Sheet as a finance lease obligation.
Lease payments are apportioned between finance costs in the Profit and Loss Account and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.
Defined contribution pension obligation
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period in which they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.

Financial instruments
Classification
Recognition and measurement
Impairment
A non financial asset is impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial recognition, the estimated recoverable value of the asset has been reduced. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of an impairment 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 less impairment, the impairment loss is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount that would be received for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.
Where indicators exist for a decrease in impairment loss, and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the prior impairment loss is tested to determine reversal. An impairment loss is reversed on an individual impaired financial asset to the extent that the revised recoverable value does not lead to a revised carrying amount higher than the carrying value had no impairment been recognised.

On June 18 2009 the company acquired the trade and selected assets of Team Precision Pipework Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales. The negative goodwill arose as the price paid on the acquisition of the business and assets of Team Precision Pipework Limited was less than the fair value of the net assets acquired at the date of acquisition.
The negative goodwill was being amortised over the periods in which the acquired non-monetary assets are recovered over 5 to 17 years.
During the year the land and buildings included in this acquisition were disposed of. All other assets previously acquired had already been fully amortised, so the remaining negative goodwill has now been amortised in full and the intangible asset carrying value reduced to £nil.
