GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017


The director presents his strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended
31 December 2017.

The trading results for the period and the group's financial position at the end of the period are shown in the
attached financial statements.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
Following the group restructuring and internal reorganisation in the previous period the group is showing a
stronger financial position.

Increasing production benefited from efficiency gains which helped to improve margins, tight control of
overhead spending resulted in savings compared to the previous year.

The outlook for the coming financial year looks good. The group continues to pursue new opportunities and
develop new products as well as deepen existing customer relationships.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The group's activities expose it to a number of financial risks including credit risk, liquidity risk and currency
risk. The group does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Credit risk
The group's principal financial assets are bank balances and trade debtors.

The group's credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade debtors. The amounts presented in the balance
sheet are net of allowances for doubtful debts. The credit risk on bank balances is limited because the
counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

The group has some concentration of credit risk to a small number of major customers. However, a number
of these are national defence agencies and other government departments and so this risk is considered to
be limited. The group's exposure to commercial customers is managed on an account by account basis to
ensure these don't exceed agreed credit limits.

Liquidity risk
In order to maintain liquidity to ensure that sufficient funds are available for on-going operations and future
developments, the group uses a mixture of long-term and short-term debt finance and equity funding and
inter-company treasury management.

Currency risk
The group undertakes trading transactions in currencies other than sterling and has funding instruments
denominated in foreign currency. The foreign exchange risk is managed by holding cash resources in foreign
currency.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
The group uses order intake, production levels, turnover and profit as key performance indicators to monitor
performance.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017


The director presents his report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year
ended 31 December 2017.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activities of the group in the year under review were those of the design, manufacture and
supply of training munitions and related products and precision tools and components.

DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be distributed for the year ended 31 December 2017.

DIRECTOR
P Mehta held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2017 to the date of this report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES
The director is responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, 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), including
Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of
Ireland'. 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 the group and of the profit or loss of
the group 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;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the
company will continue in business.

The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain
the company's and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial
position of the company and the group 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 the group 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 group'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 group's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS
The auditors, DNG Dove Naish, Statutory Auditor, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming
Annual General Meeting.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
LUNOVI LIMITED


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Lunovi Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the
'group') for the year ended 31 December 2017 which comprise the Consolidated Income Statement,
Consolidated Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Company
Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of
Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows, 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 group's and of the parent company affairs as at
31 December 2017 and of the group's 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
group 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 director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is
not appropriate; or
- the director has not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt about the group'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 director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the
Group Strategic Report and 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 Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Director for the financial year for
which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Director have been prepared in accordance with
applicable legal requirements.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
LUNOVI LIMITED


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
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 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 by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit
have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the parent company 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.

Responsibilities of director
As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page three, 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 group's and the parent
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 group or the
parent company or to cease operations, or has 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.

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.

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.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Lunovi Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The
company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information
page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Based on the availability of financial support from associated companies under the control of the
director, the director has a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue
in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the director has adopted the going concern
basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and entities
controlled by the company (its subsidiaries an joint ventures) made up to 31 December each period.
Control is achieved where the company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of
an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group and
de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies
are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been
changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group.

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of the following
entities in accordance with the accounting policy described above:


Name of entity

Registered office
Country of
incorporation
Class
ofshares held
Equity holding
%

JEB Technologies Limited As parent UK Ordinary 100
UTM Limited As parent UK Ordinary 100

Significant judgements and estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company accounting
policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions
and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed within the individual accounting
policies below.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Turnover
Turnover represents the value, excluding Value Added Tax, of goods and services supplied to
customers during the year. Income is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of
the goods have been transferred to the buyer, which depending on the specific contract terms is either
on dispatch or delivery of goods. Turnover on customer development and construction projects is
recognised in accordance with agreed milestones being met.

Goodwill on consolidation
Goodwill on consolidation, arising on the acquisition of the subsidiaries, has been written back in full in
the period.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Plant and machinery - 20% on cost, 20% on reducing balance and 10% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance and 25% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance

No depreciation is provided on a long term leasehold property where the lease is for a 999 year period,
as in the opinion of the directors, the residual value is such that any depreciation charge would be
immaterial.

Freehold buildings are improved such that residual values of these properties, based on prices
prevailing at the time of acquisition, are at least equal to their book values. It is the opinion of the
Directors that depreciation on any such properties as required by the Companies Act and accounting
standards would not be material.

Other leasehold property is depreciated over the life of the lease.

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted
for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The
selection of these residual values and estimated lives requires the exercise of judgement. The
directors are required to assess whether there is an indication of impairment to the carrying value of
assets. In making that assessment, judgements are made in estimating value in use. The director
considers that the individual carrying values of assets are supportable by their value in use.

Stocks
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due
allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out method and includes all purchase, transport, and handling
costs in bringing stocks to their present location and condition.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated
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 statement of financial position date.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at
the statement of financial position 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.

Research and development
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.


Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at
the statement of financial position 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
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet.
Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those
held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term,
whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The
capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined benefit pension scheme in the United Kingdom. The scheme was
closed to new members and accruals from 31 October 2003. The assets of the scheme are held
separately from those of the company, being invested with insurance companies.

The pension scheme surplus or deficit is recognised in full on the group balance sheet. The deferred
tax relating to a defined benefit asset or liability is offset against the defined benefit asset or liability and
not included with other deferred tax assets or liabilities.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short term
deposits with an original maturity date of three months or less.

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are
recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income under administrative expenses.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual
arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in
the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities.

Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a
similar debt instrument, those financial instruments are classed as financial liabilities. Financial
liabilities are presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to
financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. Finance costs are calculated so as to
produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability.

Where the contractual terms of share capital do not have any terms meeting the definition of a
financial liability then this is classed as an equity instrument. Dividends and distributions relating to
equity instruments are debited direct to equity.
