### Quarterly business review

**Organisation:** Northgate Building Ltd **Quarter:** Q3 2027 (July to September) **Prepared by:** Sofia Marin, Managing Director **Date:** 14 October 2027

## Summary

A strong quarter for revenue and safety, a weak one for costs. We hit 2 of 4 goals. Next quarter we focus on margin.

## Goals and results

| Goal | Result | Met or missed |

| Revenue EUR 1.5m | Result EUR 1.57m | Met |

| Profit margin 18% | Result 14% | Missed |

| No lost-time injuries | Result 0 | Met |

| New clients 6 | Result 4 | Missed |

## Key numbers

## Wins

Finished Mill Road two weeks early. Signed a three-year contract with the city school trust.

## Problems and what we learned

Timber and steel costs rose faster than our quotes. We need price review clauses in contracts.

## Customers and market

Three clients asked about solar panels. A competitor opened in the north.

## Risks to watch

Supplier delays, a shortage of skilled bricklayers, and a late-paying client owing EUR 85,000.

## Priorities for next quarter

1. Raise margin to 17 percent with fixed supplier prices. 2. Hire two bricklayers. 3. Win 6 new clients. 4. Collect all debts over 60 days.

## Decisions needed

Approve EUR 40,000 for the new site software.

### How long should a business plan be?

As short as it can be while it says what you sell, to whom, how you earn money and what you need. Ten pages is plenty for most small businesses.

### Will a plan get me funding?

It cannot promise that. A clear plan helps a bank or an investor understand you, and they decide by their own rules.
