PRELIMINARY RESULTS FOR THE YEARED 31ST MARCH 2017
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
It is pleasing to report results which show considerable improvement on last year.
Sales revenue was up to GBP13.053m (2016: GBP12.584) and profit before tax was GBP1.234m (2016: GBP947k). The operating profit was GBP1.444m (2016: GBP1.156m).
During the year, we thought it wise to have a revaluation of our land and buildings as well as our plant and machinery. This valuation showed a surplus of GBP1.389m (net of deferred tax) which is shown in the accounts.
The figures were helped considerably by the devaluation of sterling, increasing our margins on most of our export business which accounts for 42% of our sales. This was of course offset in part by the increased costs of all our imported raw materials and other purchases, a large percentage of which come from Europe or are priced in American dollars. Nevertheless, it is very pleasing to see a significant increase in performance.
On the personnel front as regard the Board, this year has witnessed much change. I reported on 11 August 2016 the sad death of Paul Turner at the very young age of 49.
As announced on 29 September 2016 Martin Legge decided that he finally had to retire. He has given many years' hard work and his financial advice in particular will be missed. I would like to thank him for all those years.
Our very successful Manufacturing Director, Neil Bosworth, has also decided to take early retirement from the Board and is stepping down with effect from 30 September 2017. He joined us straight from school and has excelled in a variety of positions before he took up his present one in 1996, being invited onto the Board in 2003.
Moving forward, it is a great pleasure to welcome Simon Latham to the Board as Financial Director. He is already contributing considerably.
After a very eventful year we are going into another one which is likely to be just as interesting. Along with a lot of other businesses, the effects at the moment of Brexit are not as feared, although it has to be said that even last year our UK business was marginally down. Our order book is fairly healthy. However, I still believe that there are likely to be some clouds on the horizon. Whether they arrive in this financial year, it is very difficult to forecast.
Meanwhile, the improving asset position allows us to pay the deferred interim dividend of 5.5p which I referred to in the interim report on 16 November 2016, as well as holding the final dividend at 6.875p, the same level as last year.

3. Critical accounting and key sources of estimation
Critical judgements in applying the entity's accounting policies
In the process of applying the entity's accounting policies the directors have made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Income taxes
The Group is subject to income taxes in the United Kingdom. Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
The recoverable amounts of the Group's deferred tax assets have been determined based on the Board's estimates of future taxable profits and income and tax rates.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.
Valuation of intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially valued at their cost and then evaluated periodically for impairment. For purposes of valuation an intangible asset is considered impaired if its carrying value is less than the expected net cash flow from the asset.
Valuation of inventories
Determining the valuation of inventories requires an estimation of the obsolescence provision required to write down items to their realisable value.
Retirement benefit scheme deficit
The valuation of expected returns on assets and the present value of the liabilities of the scheme are determined by assumptions and estimates made by the directors based on the current information to hand. Therefore, amounts are open to fluctuations in the future due to unforeseen changes or additional factors that come to light following the year end.

March 2017 of 0.0 pence per share (2016:
5.50 pence per share) - 140
174 298
------ ------
In addition to the dividends paid during the year the directors are recommending a deferred interim dividend of 5.50 pence per share amounting to GBP140,000 and a final dividend for 2017 of 6.875 pence per share amounting to GBP174,000. The proposed deferred interim and final dividend are subject to approval at the Annual General Meeting and have not been included as a liability in these accounts.
7. Earnings per share
The basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the relevant profit after taxation of GBP1,013,000 (2016: GBP769,000) by the average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year being 2,534,322 (2016: 2,534,322). The number of shares used in the calculation is the same for both basic and diluted earnings.
8. Notice of annual general meeting
Notice is hereby given that the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company will be held at the registered office of the Company, Leopold Street, Birmingham, on 11(th) August 2017 at 12.00 noon. The deferred interim dividend of 5.50 pence and a final dividend of 6.875 pence, if approved, will be payable on 18(th) August 2017 to ordinary shareholders registered at close of business on 21(nd) July 2017.
