GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Directors have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2023.
The Group's principal activity is the manufacture and distribution of salt.
The results for the year ended 31 March 2023 were pleasing despite the challenges of the current economic climate. The Group maintains strong internal and external contacts with customers, suppliers and the employees. The Directors remain focussed on producing and marketing leading specialist brands in packaged salt, distributing in both the UK and overseas markets. The Directors remain optimistic of the continued success of the business which will be driven by maintaining a high-quality product and expansion of both the domestic and export markets. This will be achieved by remaining true to the business' core values. The Directors are of the opinion that the Group is in a strong position to meet any challenges in the future.
The Directors remain alert to the risks prevalent in a commercial environment and continue to take steps to minimise and mitigate these risks.
Cost of living The increases in cost of living are a risk that must be managed as it is does pose a threat to the costs of the Group. The Group strives to ensure staff are paid a fair wage and that costs must be managed to ensure this can be continued. However, the Directors do not believe the risk is significant enough to impact the going concern of the Group.
The Directors continue to use both financial and non financial key performance indicators to manage the business. The business maintains a strong management information function which focuses on regular and accurate reporting. The financial key performance indicators reported on are:
The above demonstrates the encouraging performance in the year with double digit percentage growth in annualised turnover, whilst maintaining gross profit margin in a demanding economic environment.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the consolidated 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 applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 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 Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the Group's financial statements 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 Group 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 the Group and to 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 the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £9,104k (2022 - £8,938k).
Dividends of £525k (2022 - £6,265k) were declared and paid during the year.
The Directors who served during the year were:
In accordance with Section 414c (11) of the Companies Act 2006, the Directors have chosen to include the following items in the Strategic Report:
∙Business review
∙Principal risks and uncertainties
∙Future developments

MALDON CRYSTAL SALT COMPANY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MALDON CRYSTAL SALT COMPANY LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Maldon Crystal Salt Company Limited (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 March 2023, which comprise the Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Group and Company Balance Sheets, the Group Statement of Cash Flows, the Group and Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including 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).
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 Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.
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 Group's or the parent 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MALDON CRYSTAL SALT COMPANY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Group 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 Group Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

MALDON CRYSTAL SALT COMPANY LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MALDON CRYSTAL SALT COMPANY LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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 Group financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
∙Enquiry of management around actual and potential litigation and claims;
∙Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias;
∙Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
∙Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to asses compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
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 Auditor's Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Maldon Crystal Salt Company Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The Company registration number is 00214494. The registered office and principal place of business is Wycke Hill Business Park, Maldon, Essex, CM9 6UZ.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand (£'000).
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
The Directors consider that the Company has sufficient liquid resources, shareholder support and access to future resources to enable the Company to cover its costs and pay its liabilities for the next 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.
Consequently, the Directors have concluded that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Assets under construction are accounted for at cost, based on the value of certificates and other direct costs incurred to 31 March. They are not depreciated until the accounting period in which they are brought into use.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Group becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Balance Sheet date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties. When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Balance Sheet.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
3.1 Turnover recognition
Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. This is when the Group has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer upon the goods leaving the Group's premises. Although this is not considered to be a complex judgment for the Group, revenue recognition is still considered to be a critical accounting policy.
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The Directors assess the net realisable value as being the selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first out basis. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads. The valuation of stocks is critical to the production of the financial statements. Judgement is required in determining the costing for the stock items and therefore ensuring the stocks are valued correctly.
