Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31st December 2022 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31st December 2022. |
Equip4work Ltd, also trading as Office Furniture Online, offer a large range of office furniture and industrial products for sale via the internet, to businesses of all sizes, local government, schools and universities throughout the UK. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The company had another challenging year, adapting to changes instigated in 2021. Import of goods continues to be more complex and costly since Brexit and changes in customer profile since Covid and the growth of working from home have offered challenges also. Turnover for the year dropped to £38.2m (2021 - £48.0m). Gross profits have dropped from £14.4m to £11.5m but gross profit percentage rose from 30.0% to 30.05%. The company returned a profit before tax of £600,967, up from last year's loss of £6,229 but expects to return to better profits next year following extensive restructuring. |
Key Performance Indicators (KPI's) |
Given the straightforward nature of the business, the directors are of the opinion that there are no additional KPI's other than the measures of turnover and net profit reported above that are necessary for an understanding of the development, performance or position of the business. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The management of the business and the execution of the company strategy are subject to a number of risks. These include competition from national and international competitors, currency fluctuation and product availability. The management team monitor these risks and plan whatever action is needed to deal with them. |
Financial risk management |
The company's operations expose it to little in the way of financial risk. However, financial risk does exist in the form of credit risk. The company has in place a risk management programme that seeks to limit the adverse effects on the financial performance of the company. |
Credit risk |
The company has implemented policies that require appropriate credit checks on potential customers before sales are made. The amount of exposure to any individual is subject to a limit which can only be reassessed by a director. |

DIRECTORS |
Other changes in directors holding office are as follows: |
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, Farries, Kirk and McVean, 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 |
Equip4work Ltd |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Equip4work Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended 31st December 2022 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31st December 2022 and of its profit for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
Conclusions relating to going concern |
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
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 |
Equip4work Ltd |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page three, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. |
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
- we have assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement as being low risk. The parent group put a focus on controls to address potential fraud and extensive staff training is undertaken to recognise attempted fraud at an early stage. We tested a sample of payments to determine whether they had been appropriately authorised and found no errors in our sample. |
- the nature of the company's activities are not significantly regulated. We have assessed the main regulations around the company's activities as being those concerning data protection. |
- we have discussed the legal and regulatory framework the company operates under with the directors and with representatives of the parent group. This has enabled us to gain an understanding of those applicable to the company and the procedures they operate to ensure compliance. |
- we have obtained an understanding of the company's policies and procedures on fraud risk through two way communication with the management and have no knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud. |
- the Senior Statutory Auditor is satisfied that the engagement audit staff were competent to and capable of recognising non-compliance with laws and regulation. No details of any non-compliance were communicated to us and no such potential instances were noted during the audit process. |
- the company is a UK subsidiary of a German owned group. We have communicated with group level officials to obtain a clear understanding of the group position. |
We have reached these conclusions following enquiries made of those charged with governance and senior staff and following audit testing procedures and review of financial statements. |
We do not believe the Covid-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the risk of detecting irregularities, including fraud. |
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation |
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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Equip4work Ltd |
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. |

DG1 3SJ |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going Concern |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. During and since the year end the company has continued to trade profitably, with appropriate precautions in place, throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. The directors have examined the management accounts and are satisfied that the pandemic has created no material uncertainties in relation to going concern of the company. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The company makes provision against bad debt and makes estimates in the area of depreciation charges and impairment of fixed assets. However, neither is considered to be a 'key' estimate in accounting terms. |
Turnover |
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of sales of office furniture and similar items processed before close of business on the last working day of the year, excluding value added tax. Some internet orders are paid for in advance and are recognised at point of order. Credit sales however are only recognised at point of despatch of goods. |
Intangible fixed assets |
Intangible fixed assets represent capitalised software and website development costs. Amortisation is provided at 33% on cost in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold property | - |
Plant and machinery | - |
Office equipment | - |
Computer equipment | - |
Amounts written off each asset over the estimated useful life represent cost less residual value. |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
Stocks are valued using the First In First Out (F.I.F.O.) method. |

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued |
for the Year Ended 31st December 2022 |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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. |
Deferred tax |
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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
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. |
Impairment reviews |
The directors regularly review both tangible and intangible fixed assets for potential impairment. |
Provisions |
The directors also regularly consider the need to make any provisions against debts or stock and make provision when considered appropriate. |
Financial instruments |
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 the sale of services performed in the ordinary course of business. |
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price and represent the full value of the services charged to customers. |
Trade Creditors |
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. |
Trade creditors 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. |
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. |
