AUDITORS:

Grenfell James Audit LLP
|
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2019. |
Although the statutory accounts of Heli Air show a smaller profit of £40,137 compared with the profit of
|
£67,703 in 2018, the underlying performance of the company has been very strong. The uncertainty due to
|
Brexit generated substantial but inevitable weakness in aircraft sales, but other activities have generated a
|
continued solid operating EBITDA performance and continued development of new revenue streams for the
|
Our continued investment strategy in newer, greener technology and has paid dividends. For example, our
|
investment of over £200k has helped Heli Air secure the UK's first Single Engine Turbine addition to our Air
|
Operators Certificate (SET-IMC AOC). Combined with our unique position of having a secure base through
|
our group's lease at Wycombe Air Park, this will give the company a major advantage in the growth of its
|
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
|
Whilst market conditions remain difficult due to the poor performance of the GBP against key foreign
|
currencies due to the Brexit issue, the business has adapted well through continued European sales and
|
synergies developed with the parent company BEA's award of the exclusive Piper Aircraft sales dealership.
|
Poor weather can affect our flying operations performance however this impact is being offset by ground
|
school revenues. These improvements, combined with reduced debt overheads, continue to build a business
|
which is less affected by external factors.
|
Mr R D R Packe - Director
|
The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2019. |
No dividends will be distributed for the year ended 31 December 2019.
|
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2019 to the date
|
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.
|
The auditors, Grenfell James Audit LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual
|
Mr R D R Packe - Director
|
Disclaimer of opinion on financial statements
|
We have audited the financial statements of Heli Air Limited (the 'company') for the year ended
|
31 December 2019 which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, 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).
|
We do not express an opinion at this date on the accompanying financial statements. Because of the
|
significance of the matter described in the 'Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion' section of our report, we have not
|
been able to obtain sufficient evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these financial statements.
|
Basis for disclaimer of opinion
|
The financial statements for Heli Air Limited with the year ended 31 December 2019 were due to be audited
|
at a time when the company was closed due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions; since then there have been
|
several business interruptions which have caused the company to only be open for short periods. As a result
|
of this we have had limited access to the accounting records of the company and could only perform limited
|
audit work on their financial statements.
|
As a result of the limitation placed upon our audit work on the underlying figures of the companies, we were
|
unable to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial statements of Heli Air Limited and
|
are therefore unable to express an opinion on those financial statements. Due to a number of reasons, the
|
company has been required to submit the accounts to companies house to avoid trading issues however the
|
directors do intend to allow the audit to continue and be completed once lockdown restrictions have been
|
lifted and file amended financial statements with Companies House.
|
Conclusions relating to going concern
|
Because of the significance of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report
|
we have been unable to form an opinion on going concern.
|
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.
|
We do not express any opinion on the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
|
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider 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. Because of the significance of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our
|
report we have been unable to report on this.
|
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
|
Because of the significance of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report
|
we have been unable to form an opinion, whether based on the work undertook in the course of the audit:
|
- the information given in the strategic report and the directors' report for the financial period for which the
|
financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
|
- the strategic report and the directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal
|
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
|
Notwithstanding our disclaimer of an opinion on the consolidated financial statements, in the light of the
|
knowledge and understanding of the group and its environment obtained in the course of the audit
|
performed subject to the pervasive limitation described above, we have not identified material misstatements
|
in the strategic report or the directors' report.
|
Arising from the limitation of our work referred to above:
|
- we have not obtained all the information and explanations that we considered necessary for the purpose of
|
- we were unable to determine whether adequate accounting records have been kept;
|
- we were unable to determine whether the consolidated financial statements are in agreement with the
|
accounting records and returns; and
|
- we were unable to determine whether certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are
|
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:
|
- returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us.
|
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.
|
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 group or the parent company
|
or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
|
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
|
Our responsibility is to conduct an audit of the company's financial statements in accordance with
|
International Standards on Auditing (UK) and to issue and auditor's report.
|
However due to the matters described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we have
|
not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these
|
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.
|
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
|
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

|
|
Comprehensive Income, 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 is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at

|
|
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.

|
|

|
|
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at
|
|

|
|
exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at
|

|
|
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.
|
|
The directors believe that the company's financial statements during Covid-19 should be prepared on
|
|
a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources of funding or support will be
|
|
more than adequate for the company's needs, for a minimum of twelve months from the date of
|
|
approval of the financial statements.
