Strategic report
Year ended 31st March 2020
Review of Business
This latest set of financial statements shows the Company's continued ability to compete in an increasingly competitive market and again has shown an excellent return on its efforts.
Turnover increased to £20,138.448 (£13,250.592 in 2019).
Profit before tax was £387,433 and although a decrease on the previous year, administrative expenses were also much reduced.
The Company thrives on its strong retail foundations.
Online Sales in all product/service categories have continued to grow as expected. It provides the Company with even greater efficiency with the ability to plan work in the centers' going forward.
Another year of zero bad debt shows the Company's strict adherence to its credit procedures has again been successful.
The Company's Corporate and Social Responsibility policy continually ensures active compliance within the spirit of the law, ethical standards and international norms, risk management and effective controls.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Fast-fit industry is forever developing for the future and is subject to continual change.
The Company, essentially a small family run business for 28 years provides a level of service that we believe is second to none.
In this competitive World, service and the development of trust with our customers over a period of time is essential to compete and beat our competitors in this market.
Brexit
The continuing uncertainty surrounding Brexit continues to thrive. Many businesses will be profoundly affected by this. The motor trade although not immune to the negative impact, has however been relatively unaffected thus far.
The need for replacement parts for cars will continue. Much of our product is sourced from the UK and to safeguard any import tariffs in the unlikely event of a no deal, the Company has increased its stock of key component parts to the business. This will smooth over any immediate disruption to the supply chain.
Covid-19
The onset of Covid-19 towards the end of March last year marched us into the unknown.
The Company monitored it's footfall closely together with incoming telephone enquiries from its customers.
There was a distinct pattern developing and the downward trend prompted evasive action.
We elected to close our centers during April and early May. We received the business interruption grants for all of our centers, we furloughed the majority of our staff and accepted the rates incentives etc.
Our remaining staff were tasked with interior and exterior decoration of the centers.
Similarly, we ruthlessly cut costs to protect our liquidity. In particular we returned stock that fell outside of our payment terms. This exercise was a huge success and is now a regular discussion point with management.
The strength and resilience of the Company is ongoing. There was never a need for Government backed loans and trade recovered to 90% of its previous year's month on month comparison from June 2020.
Development and Performance
The significance of the impact of the Electric Car Era cannot be ignored.
The Company and in particular it's front line staff are well researched and trained in the future of electric cars and their component parts. The stock of tyres in particular has seen a dramatic change in its profile as has battery stocks to harness the `stop start' era.
Diagnostic equipment is constantly being upgraded to handle the ever-diversifying customer demands.
Financial Key Performance indicators
The performance of the Company is monitored and reported daily to our managers.
Key indicators include customer numbers, gross sales, profit margin on sales, and a breakdown of key product groups with a direct comparison to the previous year's performance.
Phone calls are continually monitored and in-house training is implemented as required to ensure our effectiveness in this very important role.
Going Concern
The Company`s management accounts to January 2021 have clearly shown that its ruthless cost cutting measures have worked well. Each month, in particular during lockdown, it has shown a profit and now in March 2021 business is close to the seasonal norm.
The directors are confident that the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of its financial accounts is appropriate.
The company has shown its ability to adapt to unprecedented market conditions and will continue in operational existence in the future.

Directors responsibilities statement
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 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 judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 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.
Auditor
Each of the persons who is a director at the date of approval of this report confirms that:
- so far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditor is unaware; and - they have taken all steps that they ought to have taken as a director to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information.

Independent auditor's report to the members of
Iverson Tyres Limited
Year ended 31st March 2020
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Iverson Tyres Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31st March 2020 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 FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion, the financial statements: - give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31st March 2020 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 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.
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information. 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.
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 has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters 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 the returns; or - certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 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 auditors 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.

Notes to the financial statements
Year ended 31st March 2020
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England & Wales. The address of the registered office is First Floor, Shropshire House, 179 Tottenham Court Road, London, W1T 7NZ.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. The Triennial review 2017 amendments to the standard have been early adopted.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The Accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets and in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards.
Turnover
Turnover represents goods and services provided during the year net of trade discounts and Value Added Tax.
Taxation
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. 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 capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Amortisation
Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:
Development costs - 25 % straight line
Other - 25 % straight line
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
Research and development
Research expenditure is written off in the year in which it is incurred. Development expenditure incurred is capitalised as an intangible asset only when all of the following criteria are met: - It is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; - There is the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; - There is the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; - The use or sale of the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; - There are adequate technical, financial and other resources available to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and - The expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development can be measured reliably. Expenditure that does not meet the above criteria is expensed as incurred.
Tangible assets
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Freehold Buildings - 2% on cost or re-valued amounts
Plant & Equipment - 15% on the written down value
Computer Equipment - 20%
Motor vehicles - 25% on the written down value
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
Impairment
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Stocks
Stock has been valued at the lower of average cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving items.
Hire purchase and finance lease
Fixed assets held under lease purchase agreements are capitalised and depreciated over their economic useful lives, on a basis consistent with owned assets. The corresponding lease purchase obligation is treated in the balance sheet as a liability. The interest element of rental obligations is charged to profit and loss account over the period of the lease at a constant proportion of the outstanding balance of capital repayments.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the entity has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event; it is probable that the entity will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are recognised as a liability in the Balance Sheet and the amount of the provision as an expense. Provisions are initially measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date and subsequently reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate of the amount that would be required to settle the obligation. Any adjustments to the amounts previously recognised are recognised in profit or loss unless the provision was originally recognised as part of the cost of an asset. When a provision is measured at the present value of the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation, the unwinding of the discount is recognised in finance costs in profit or loss in the period it arises.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions in respect of the company's defined contribution pension scheme are charged to the profit and loss account for the year in which they are payable. Differences between contributions payable and contributions actually paid in the year are shown as either accruals or prepayments at the year end.
4. Turnover
