NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Chichester Bond Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Financial instruments |
The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of the financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from bank and other third parties, and loans to related parties. |
Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, are measured, initially and subsequently at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received; other debt instruments are initially measured at present value of the future payments and subsequently at the amortised cost using the effective interest method |
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. |
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet only when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is no intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |

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. |
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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |

9. | OTHER FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS |
The company holds a Premises Guarantee to the value of £250,000. This is in relation to the duty value on the duty suspended products stored within the Bonded warehouse. The company's bank acts as a guarantor for the full value and retains a fixed and floating charge against all current and future assets of the company for security. This liability would only crystalise in the event of HMRC deeming it necessary to recoup duty on goods which entered the UK market. There is no evidence of any events this year that would cause crystallisation. |
The unlimited multilateral guarantee is in place with Compass Supply Solutions Limited, CSS Group Limited and a related company. |
10. | RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES |
At the year end the company was owed £53,482 (2022 - £Nil) from a company under control of the director, this amount is interest free and repayable on demand. |

11. | GOING CONCERN |
The directors consider it appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis. |
The company is closely monitored by the directors and the after effect of the pandemic on the hospitality industry. The company has seen an increase in trading following the easing of lockdown measures and continues to receive support from its bankers and parent company. In addition, forecasts have been prepared which indicate the company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities. The company has access to cash balances, if required, from associates companies and beneficial owners and is therefore well places to cover working capital and funding requirements. |
