Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 December 2022

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Financial Reporting Standard 101

    Turnover policy

    Revenue represents the amounts invoiced to the immediate parent company, Strix Limited, net of VAT for the provision of management services for commercial, technical and development support towards the Group’s sales of water appliances portfolio products. The transaction price is determined within the management services agreement with Strix Limited. Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in the management services agreement with Strix Limited and is recognised when the performance obligations have been fulfilled. The Company recognises revenue from the provision of services proportionally over the duration of the service period, based on the nature of the contract terms in the management services agreement.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the original purchase price, costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for intended use, dismantling and restoration costs.Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life.The entity purchases fixed assets which are included within a separate category within property, plant and equipment (“assets under construction”) until the assets are ready for use at which point the costs are transferred to the relevant asset category and depreciated. Any items that are scrapped are written off to the statement of comprehensive income.The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The effect of any change is accounted for prospectively. Assets are derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from de-recognition of an asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

    Valuation information and policy

    Financial assets The Company classifies its financial assets as financial assets held at amortised cost. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.The Company classifies its financial assets as at amortised cost where both of the following are met: - The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows; and - The contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.Recognition and measurementFinancial assets held at amortised cost are initially recognised at fair value, and are subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Financial assets at amortised cost comprise cash and cash equivalents, amounts owed by Group undertakings and other receivables (excluding prepayments). Impairment of financial assetsThe Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.The Company applies the expected credit loss model to financial assets at amortised cost. For amounts owed by Group undertakings, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Management performed an assessment of the expected credit losses on the Company's receivables and, given their nature, these have not been considered to be material.Financial liabilities The Company initially recognises its financial liabilities at fair value net of transaction costs where applicable and subsequently they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Financial liabilities comprise amounts owed to Group undertakings and they are included in current liabilities, unless they have a repayment date greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. A financial instrument which does not meet the recognition criteria of a financial liability but rather evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company, after deducting all of the Company’s liabilities, is classified as equity. Such an instrument is initially measured at the present value of future payments discounted at the incremental borrowing rate of the Group, with the discounting effect, being the difference between the loan proceeds and the present value, being recognised as a capital contribution. The subsequent impact of discount unwinding is recognised directly in equity up to the date of maturity.
