STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2016 |
The director presents his strategic report for the year ended 31 July 2016. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The year to 31 July 2016 has been one of transition. And, for all that the word "transition" implies difficulties having |
been faced, there is much to celebrate. But let's first confront those challenges. First and foremost has been the |
collapse in demand for specialist skills in the oil and gas market. The drought has been going on for 18 months now, |
and our decision to leave highly trained recruiters in that market in the hope of an earlier turnaround has not paid off. |
The meagre revenue of only £33k across the year reflects the parlous state of the market and it was not a difficult |
decision, made halfway through this year just concluded, to wind down the oil and gas division. |
Such a dramatic decline in income (from in excess of £0.4m GP in the year to July 2015 and £0.7m GP back in July |
2013) could hardly avoid weighing on our full P/L. Total GP fell from £3.3m to £3.2m. Overheads remained steady at |
£1.7m, inflationary rises in costs being balanced by lower commission payments on the reduced GP. The result, net |
P/L fell from last year's high of £1.6m to this year's total of £1.45m. |
That a near £400k shortfall of GP in one collapsed division did not produce a comparable drop in profit takes us to the |
good news: our IT division continues its relentless march. 8% growth in contract recruitment revenues was |
outstripped by 11% growth in cash-generative permanent fees. Even better news, the prognosis for the first half of |
next year is exceptionally positive. Casting off doubts surrounding Brexit, the IT marketplace has gone into a |
contracting frenzy. Permanent hiring may be more sensitive to the weekly headlines but we are experiencing |
exceptional demand for new contractors. The early signs are for record numbers of concurrent contracts. Can we crack |
the 200 barrier? |
With this prospect in mind, it is worth focusing for a moment on the cash management strategy adopted throughout |
the Bridge's lifetime. A minimum of a year's profits are retained as a matter of principle and at all times in order that |
growth never be constrained by a lack of cash, nor profits by the cost of financing. As we grow our contractor |
numbers, the sizeable cash float will stand us in good stead. |
We are not blind, however, to the risks posed, above all, by the UK's secession from the EU, or rather from the |
uncertainties surrounding it. We expect a bumpy ride, particularly in the area of permanent recruitment, and it is a |
great comfort that the ability of all our consultants to dual-desk, flipping from one form of supply to the other as |
demand vacillates, protects us from some of the uncertainty. Notwithstanding these risks, we firmly expect in the |
forthcoming year to reverse this year's rare downward trend in our profits. In fact we have high hopes for a record |
year. |
In a year marked by a number of exceptional personal achievements by colleagues I'd like to pick out the contribution, |
not just in this year, but over the Bridge's whole lifetime, of our original employee, Simon Barratt, who will join the |
management board of the company from October 2016. Simon, with his loyalty and hard work, as well as his lusty |
engagement in our social functions, is a model for all our employees, and welcoming him to the board is one of the |
highlights of my year. All that remains is for me to thank all colleagues for their contributions and we look forward to |
widening the benefits of working for the Bridge by introducing a pension scheme for all employees in the Autumn. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
THE BRIDGE (IT RECRUITMENT) LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 04403730) |

DIRECTOR |
DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT |
The following information is not shown in the Report of the Directors as it is shown in the Strategic Report in |
accordance with S414C(11) of the Companies Act 2006: |
- an indication of likely future developments in the business of the company. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
The director is responsible for preparing the 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). 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; |
- | 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 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. |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Revell Ward 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 |

Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. |
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. |
Respective responsibilities of director and auditors |

which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
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: |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2016 |
1. | STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The company has continued to trade profitably and has a positive cash position. No reliance is placed on bank |
facilities or other borrowings. The director has considered the current position of the company and, after |
making appropriate enquiries, he has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to |
continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. He therefore continues to adopt the going concern |
basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
Accounting estimates, by definition, will often vary from the actual results. They are continually evaluated and |
are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to |
be reasonable under the circumstances. The nature of the estimates and assumptions that have a significant |
risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial |
year are addressed below. The carrying amount of the estimates and assumptions at the year end are disclosed |
in the relevant note to the accounts. |
Debtors balances |
The company makes an estimate of the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing |
impairment, management considers factors including the ageing profile and recent correspondence with the |
debtors and historical experience. In addition, when a credit balance arises on a customer's account, the |
company assesses the likelihood of the balance being utilised by the customer and carries forward credit |
balances accordingly. |
Turnover |
The company's turnover derives wholly from the supply of services. Turnover represents the fair value of the |
consideration receivable, net of VAT and trade discounts. When a contract straddles a period end, income is |
allocated pro rata based on the number of working days in each period. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost |
includes the original purchase price and any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working |
condition for its intended use. |
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 basis: |
Plant and machinery | - 25% reducing balance |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the |
balance sheet 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. |

20. | COMPANY INFORMATION |
The company is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in England and Wales. The address of |
its principal place of business is The Bridge, Toronto Square, Leeds, LS1 2HJ. |
21. | FIRST YEAR ADOPTION |
This is the first year that the company has presented its results under FRS 102. The last financial statements |
prepared under the previous UK GAAP were for the year ended 30 July 2015. The date of transition to FRS |
102 was 1 August 2014. |
In preparing these accounts the director has considered whether in applying the accounting policies required |
by FRS 102 a restatement of comparative information was needed. FRS 102 requires that lessees recognise |
operating lease incentives as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis, old UK GAAP required |
lease incentives to be recognised to the first rent review or break clause. The effect of this is shown on the |
reconciliations on the pages that follow. |
There are no other changes to the comparative information and there have been no other changes in |
accounting policies as a result of the first year adoption of FRS 102. |
