## From the administrators' statement

The Companies began experiencing a decline in trading performance in 2020 principally due to the Covid-19 pandemic which forced extended periods of manufacturing shut down and disrupted the supply chain for essential parts required for production and to fulfil customer orders. Manufacturing was further impacted by the global shortage of semi-conductors for the vehicle industry.

During 2023 a number of suppliers placed the Companies on stop or pro forma payment as creditor pressure mounted and cash resources were stretched. This impacted the Companies’ ability to fulfil orders and meet target revenue levels.

The directors further attribute the Companies’ financial performance in 2023 to delays in product approval documentation being obtained from the Vehicle Certification Agency and delays in customer sign off on vehicles for dispatch leading to a significant extension in output time scales and subsequent drop in output volumes.
