A Safe operation is the result of combining qualified staff, well-maintained Equipment, appropriate Processes and procedures, adequate Training and Supervision. As Safety is everyone's responsibility, personnel safety reporting process on hazards, anomalies and deficiencies is established. All reported issues are investigated, are reviewed and amended to improve SAHCO's Management System.
This Safety culture is enhanced by embracing human factors principles and includes encouraging personnel to report related errors/ incidents. SAHCO embraces this Just Reporting Policy, whereby no action shall be taken against one reporting an unintentional error, unless such report indicates beyond reasonable doubt, an illegal act, gross negligence or deliberate willful disregard for regulations or procedures.

SAHCO is committed to maintaining the highest standards of Quality and performance in its Operations and Customer Service to accomplish this goal; and will employ the latest technology, methods and procedures.
NON-PUNITIVE POLICY (NO BLAME POLICY)
SAHCO encourages a voluntary incident reporting system to facilitate the collection of information that may not be captured by a mandatory incident reporting system and provides immunity from disciplinary action for employees that report Safety and Security deficiencies, hazards or occurrences. This policy is in the true spirit of ICAO Annex 13 document.
All SAHCO Personnel are encouraged to report Safety concerns and errors and to cooperate with the investigation of incidents. The Primary aim is to identify the causes and eliminate them, and not to identify and punish the individuals concerned". It is a SAHCO policy that an unpremeditated or inadvertent lapse will not incur any punitive action, but a breach of professionalism may do so. It may be necessary to suspend an individual pending an investigation. This should not be interpreted as punitive action but, rather, as a precautionary measure.
It is reiterated that a voluntary incident reporting system is non-punitive and affords protection to the sources of information i.e. the concerned employee. However, in the case of willful negligence, intentional violation and the use of illicit substances the non-punitive immunity will not apply.
SECURITY POLICY
It is the responsibility of each and every SAHCO employee to be conscious of the security of its property, its Customers, themselves, and protection of SAHCO business interests at all times".
ALCOHOL AND DRUG POLICY
SAHCO is committed to providing and maintaining a working environment in which its employees are not exposed to hazards arising from the use and abuse of alcohol and/or drugs. We have a "zero tolerance" policy for the consumption of alcohol or the use of non-prescriptive drugs whilst on duty. All employees are required to report for work in a fit and proper condition in order to perform their duties in a safe and efficient manner. Any employee found under the influence of alcohol or non-prescriptive drugs / psychoactive substances - drugs that are considered clinically harmful to disorient normal human functioning and endanger operational safety shall be removed immediately from safety critical functions and strict disciplinary action including termination of services will be initiated against the staff.
All employees have a legal obligation not to endanger themselves or others because of being in an alcohol or drug impaired condition, either within or outside the workplace. Employees are required to disclose to their manager or supervisor the use of any prescriptive drugs or medicines for the treatment of sickness or illness that may affect their performance or behavior. This is extremely important for personnel assigned duties in the operational area and safety critical functions. Such personnel shall be redeployed to functions that are not directly associated with operations.

THIRD PARTY REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
SKYWAY AVIATION HANDLING COMPANY PLC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER, 2025
In accordance with the requirements of Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc, we performed a limited assurance engagement and reported on management's assessment of the Company's Internal Control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.
The work performed was done in accordance with the Guidance on Implementation of Sections 60 - 63 of the Investments and Securities Act 2007, which requires public companies (subject to the reporting requirements of the Act) to include in their annual reports a report of management on the company's internal control system. A public company is required to file the auditor's attestation report as part of the annual report.
The Management of Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (ICFR). It refers to the controls designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the entity's board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAPs) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
We have performed a review of the Internal Control over Financial Reporting of the company for the purpose of determining the existence and adequacy of the Internal Controls around the preparation of its financial statements.
We conducted our review using the criteria established by the Financial Reporting Council Guidelines on Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and the Treadway Commission's Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) on Internal Control-Integrated Framework 2013. Our procedures included examining entity-level controls, general controls, and transaction-specific controls. We observed that the management had a system of internal control and found a few inadequacies for which the management has committed to planned corrective measures.
In our opinion, the internal controls designed and effected by the management of Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc over operations, processes, systems, corporate governance and compliances were reasonably adequate and sufficient to ensure that the financial statements and report for the period ended December 31, 2025 did not contain any untrue statements of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the financial statements misleading with respect to the period ended December 31, 2025.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
TO THE MEMBERS OF SKYWAY AVIATION HANDLING COMPANY PLC.
OPINION
We have audited the financial statements of Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc. (SAHCO PLC) herein referred to as "the company", which comprise of:
the company's statement of financial position as at December 31, 2025;
the company's statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December, 2025;
the company's statement of changes in equity as at 31 December, 2025;
the company's statement of cash flows for the year ended 31 December, 2025;
the notes comprising a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
The accompanying Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the company as at 31 December 2025 and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Companies and Allied Matters Act, CAP C20 LFN, 2020, the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and in the manner required by Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act, 2023.
BASIS FOR OUR OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Nigeria, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
KEY AUDIT MATTERS
Key audit matters are those matters that in our professional judgments were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. The key audit matters below relate to the audit of the financial statements.
Key Audit Matter(s) | ||
Receivable Loss Impairment: See Note 17 to the Financial Statements. | How the matter was addressed in the Audit | |
IFRS 9 requires SAHCO Plc to recognize impairment using the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model. The ECL model is dependent on significant judgement and estimates by management in the measurement and determination of impairment on Receivables and other financial instruments. Our focus on this area was premised on the significant judgement and subjectivity inherent or applied by management in the estimation of the level of impairment, and the size of this Receivables. The ECL model is forward looking which incorporates industry and prevailing economic events and requires an application of historical financial data of the Compay. All of these are combined to develop and apply relevant models to the receivables of the Company. | Our audit procedures to assess the Receivable loss impairment included the following: i. Updated our understanding of the controls put in place by the management to identify impaired receivables and provisions against those assets and determined whether these controls have been appropriately designed and implemented. ii. We reviewed the appropriateness of the company's determination of significant increase in credit risk and ensured compliance with IFRS 9. iii. We involved our internal credit specialists in the review of the assessment of the overall compliance of the model to the requirements of the IFRS 9. | |
Receivable Loss Impairment: See Note 17 to the Financial Statements. | How the matter was addressed in the Audit | |
Trade and other Receivables make up a significant portion of the total assets of Company with the total of NGN20.3 billion representing about 74% of the Company's current assets. The total amount of impairment on Receivables recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss for the year is NGN1.265 billion as stated in note 17(a). |
| |
The basis of the provisions is summarized in the accounting policies in the financial statements (See Note 2.12.7). The Company's impairment model addresses the three stages of credit classifications. | vi. We subjected the data used in the models to test as well as assessing the model's methodology. | |
Because of the significance of these estimates, judgments and the size of Trade Receivables, economic conditions experienced in Nigeria during the year which affected the performance of Receivables, the audit of receivable's impairment is considered a key audit matter. | Based on our review, we found that the company's impairment methodology, including the model, assumptions and key inputs used by management to estimate the amount of receivable impairment losses were comparable with historical performance, and prevailing economic situations and that the estimated receivable impairment loss determined was appropriate in the circumstances. |
Other information in the Annual Report
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all the information in the Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc.'s 2025 annual report other than the company financial statements and our auditor's report thereon ("the Other Information").
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Other Information and, in doing so, consider whether the other Information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other Information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the directors and those charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
The directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirement of the Companies and Allied Matters Act CAP C20 LFN 2020, circulars and guidelines issued by the Financial Reporting Council Act 2023 and for such internal control as the directors determine is 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 intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error; design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks; and, obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of directors's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identified during our audit.
We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on other legal requirements
The Companies and Allied Matters Act, CAP C20 LFN, 2020 requires that in carrying out our audit we consider and report to you on the following matters. We confirm that:
We have obtained all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purpose of our audit;
In our opinion, proper books of account have been kept by the company; and
The company's statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are in agreement with the books of account.

Fair Value
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 16, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in IAS 2 or value in use in IAS 36.
Going Concern
The directors assess the Company's future performance and financial position on a going concern basis and have no reason to believe that the Company will not be a going concern in the year ahead. For this reason, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
