Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2022

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Seckford Holdings Ltd is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

Financial instruments
Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at the transaction value.

They are then subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

At the end of each reporting period financial assets are assessed for impairment. If an impairment exists the impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

Financial assets are derecognised when:
- the contractual right to cash flows from the asset are settled or expire,
- substantially all the risk and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or
- despite retaining some significant risks and rewards, control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset without additional restrictions.

Financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors are initially recognised at the transaction value.

They are then subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Going concern
These financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for the forseeable future. The validity of this assumption depends on the continuing support of the company's directors, shareholders and other group companies. If the company were unable to continue in existence for the foreseeable future, adjustments would be necessary to reduce the balance sheet values of assets to to their recoverable amounts and to reclassify fixed assets as current assets.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS
