DIRECTOR |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
The director is responsible for preparing the Report of the Director and the financial statements in accordance with |
applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director |
has 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 director must not approve |
the financial statements unless he is 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 director is required |
to: |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
The director is 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 him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is 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 director is 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 he has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a |
director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors |
are aware of that information. |
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small |
companies. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
COOL SPACE ACR LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Cool Space ACR Limited (the 'company') for the year ended |
30 September 2017 which comprise the Income Statement, Balance Sheet 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). |
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. |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30 September 2017 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 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. |
Material uncertainty related to going concern |
We draw attention to note 14 in the financial statements, which indicates that the company has accumulated losses in |
excess of net assets at the balance sheet date and bank borrowings that are secured against other group |
companies.These events or conditions, along with other matters as set out in note 14, indicate that a material |
uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not |
modified in respect of this matter. |
Other information |
The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of |
the Director, 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 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, 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 Report of the Director for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Report of the Director has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
COOL SPACE ACR LIMITED |
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 Report of the Director. |
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 director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or |
- | the director was not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Director. |
Responsibilities of director |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities, the director is 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 |
director determines 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 director is 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 director either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic |
alternative but to do so. |
Our 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. |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2017 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Cool Space ACR Limited is a |
registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The |
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party |
transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents revenue earned under a wide variety of contracts to provide mechanical and air conditioning |
services. Revenue is recognised as earned when, and to the extent that, the company obtains the right to |
consideration in exchange for its performance under these contracts. It is measured at the fair value of the right |
to consideration, which includes an appropriate element of attributable profit (exclusive of Value Added Tax). |
Revenue is generally recognised as contract activity progresses so that for incomplete contracts it reflects the |
partial performance of the contractual obligations. For such contracts the amount of revenue recorded reflects |
the accrual of the right to consideration by reference to the value of work performed. |
Goodwill |
Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of identifiable |
assets and liabilities. Goodwill is recognised within fixed assets in the year in which it arises, it has subsequently |
been fully impaired. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off |
the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following |
bases: |
Motor vehicles | - | 25% on cost |
Office equipment | - | 10% on cost |
The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in |
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. |
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. |
3. | OPERATING (LOSS)/PROFIT |
The operating loss (2016 - operating profit) is stated after charging: |

The bank loans and overdrafts are secured under a group facility in the name of DMA Group Limited. The group |
facility is secured by an unlimited inter-company composite guarantee by the group members and a first legal |
charge over a fellow subsidiary's freehold property and its associated assets. |
9. | SECURED DEBTS |
The director of the parent company, S W Kingsman, has provided a personal guarantee, limited to £750,000, for |

12. | CONTINGENT LIABILITIES |
The company is party to a composite cross guarantee given to the group's bankers, covering the bank overdrafts |
of the companies within the DMA Group Limited group. The potential liability at the balance sheet date was |
£2,589,867 (2016 - £2,090,665). |
13. | ULTIMATE PARENT COMPANY |
The immediate and ultimate controlling parent undertaking is DMA Group Limited, which is registered in England |
and has the same registered office as that of Cool Space ACR Limited. Copies of that company's group financial |
statements may be obtained from the Registrar of Companies. |
14. | GOING CONCERN |
At the balance sheet date the company has accumulated losses in excess of net assets. The company meets its |
day to day working capital requirements through a group banking facility. The facility is part of a group |
arrangement involving Kingsman (Holdings) Limited, a fellow subsidiary undertaking, secured by a first charge on |
the subsidiary's freehold property and an inter-company composite cross guarantee, along with a personal |
guarantee given by S W Kingsman. |
On this basis, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis. |
The financial statements do not include any adjustment that would result from the company not being a going |
concern. |
At the year end the company is trading through the defects and warranty periods of its completed contracts. |
