Strategic Report |
for the period 1 December 2022 to 30 April 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report for the period 1 December 2022 to 30 April 2023. |
The principal activity of the business is the construction of new build mixed use property in London. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
Key Performance Indicators |
The company reviews and monitors each site project in terms of profitability and management of costs against budgets. |
The last period has been a period of consolidation for the business with the completion of projects that had commenced or been agreed prior to the period of extreme cost inflation that the construction sector experienced from late 2020 through 2022/23. |
Whilst being profitable in 2022/23, as the business has been every year since being founded in 2008, margins remained tight as a result of the continued cost pressures created by COVID, Brexit and the war in Ukraine which have beset the whole industry. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Market Risks |
The external market risks are lower than they were at the start of the most recent financial year as inflation has fallen and there is far greater cost and supply certainty. The cost of both labour and materials are far more predictable than they were 12 months ago which gives the business a far greater ability to plan ahead and look at new projects. |
Having said that the pressures facing the end-user housing market remain a significant concern. The rate of sale of residential property slowed markedly during 2023 and remains subdued going forward. Hopefully interest rates have now peaked and if they start to fall in 2024 this would provide a boost to confidence and sales that the business would benefit from. |
OTHER INFORMATION |
Business Strengths |
The business continues to benefit from strong long-term relationships with key sub-contractors and suppliers built up over many years. The management and site teams within the business are highly experienced and have been with the business for a number of years. The company also continues to benefit from its flat management structure that enables it to make swift decisions. This has proved crucial over the recent challenging years the industry has faced. |
But possibly the business' greatest strength lies in its experience of delivering on sites that will be more and more significant as the UK and London expands its housing stock. As a contractor the company has consistently delivered on tight, high density sites that are increasingly common as London seeks to provide much needed housing for its growing population. |
HEALTH AND SAFETY |
The company has also continued to invest in site Health and Safety utilising the experience of our consultants Safe Scope and the experienced Project Managers we have on site. |
Each site is audited monthly by external consultants and the business continually invests in training for staff both in terms of site specific risks and wider issues such as mental health awareness. |
One of the highlights of the last 12 months, that reflect this focus, was the 90% Considerate Contractors score that was achieved. |

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 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. |

AUDITORS |
The auditors, Camerons Accountancy Consultants Limited, 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 |
London South Build Limited |
Disclaimer of opinion |
We were engaged to audit the financial statements of Kuropatwa Limited (the 'company') for the shortened period ended 30th April 2023 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statements 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). |
We do not express an opinion on the accompanying financial statements of the company 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 appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these financial statements. |
Basis for disclaimer of opinion |
We were not appointed auditors of the company until after 30 April 2023 and therefore we were not able to attend any year end inspections, valuations, office or site visits at cut off date. We have not obtained all the information and justifications that we considered necessary for gaining adequate assurance over work in progress, reported as £2,452,933 at 30th April 2023 and £2,186,635, 30th November 2022, being one of the most material audit areas within the accounts and bearing the highest level of Director estimation. |
As a result of these matters, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments might have been found necessary in respect of recorded or unrecorded trade creditors and work in progress and the impact on the financial statements. |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
Due to 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 work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- the information given in the strategic report and directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- the strategic report and directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
Notwithstanding our disclaimer of an opinion on the financial statements, in the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company 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 our audit; and |
- we were unable to determine whether adequate accounting records have been kept. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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; 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. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, 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. |
Auditor's 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 an auditor's report. However, because of the matter described in the basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these financial statements. |
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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
London South Build Limited |
In identifying and assessing risks or material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following: |
- The nature of the industry and market, control environments and business performance; |
- Results of our enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities; |
- Any matters we identified relating to: |
- Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations specific to the individual entities, and if management are aware of any instances of non-compliance. |
- Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether management have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; |
- Internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations; and |
- The matters discussed among the audit engagement team covered how and where fraud may occur in the financial statements and potential indicators of fraud. |
In keeping with ISAs (UK), we are required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override across the company. |
Key laws and regulations that have a direct impact on material values within the financial statements include the UK Companies Act and tax legislation. Other key laws and regulations that the company is subject to are Health & Safety Act and whole Construction Industry regulations such as building and planning requirements. |
Some of our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: |
- Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with the above mentioned significant laws and regulations; |
- Enquiring of management about any actual and potential litigation claims; |
- Review correspondence with HMRC |
- Testing appropriateness of journal entered and other adjustments susceptible to management override. |
The engagement team members were all briefed on the relevant laws and regulations, and they remained alert to any indications of fraud or non compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. |

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 an auditor’s report and for no other purpose.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Construction contracts are recognised in line with the requirements of FRS 102 on a percentage of completion basis.Percentage of completion calculated via cost incurred to date divided by estimated total costs per project.

Office equipment | - |
Taxation |
Taxation for the period 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 period 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. |
