Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value. The financial statements have been prepared and presented in UK Pound Sterling (£) which is the functional currency of the Company. These financial statements have been rounded to the nearest whole £.

Group accounts not prepared

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption in section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements.

The ultimate parent company of the Company is Correlation One Investments (Europe) Limited which is a registered company in England and Wales. The ultimate parent company is the smallest and largest group for which consolidated financial statements are made available.


The Company is the immediate parent company of a small sized group.

Going concern

The Directors have reviewed the Group's ability to meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, being twelve months from the signing of this report. The Group will continue to receive financial support from its shareholders to meet its obligations and therefore the Directors consider that the going concern basis is appropriate.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

Audit report

The Independent Auditor's Report was unqualified. The name of the Senior Statutory Auditor who signed the audit report on 25 June 2024 was Robert Moore, who signed for and on behalf of Bright Grahame Murray.

Judgements

No significant judgements have been made by management in preparing the financial statements other than those disclosed in Creditors and Borrowings notes which concern loans payable by the Company. Loans that are interest free are discounted at a market rate of interest, which in the judgement of the Directors is 8.5%.

Revenue recognition

Turnover represents commissions received from the sale of insurance policies. Commissions are recognised at the inception of the policy, as the insurance is arranged and placed, and are adjusted for commissions refundable in the event of policy cancellation. Provisions are maintained to meet potential subsequent commission clawbacks for policies that could cancel in the future.

Finance income and costs policy

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Interest payable is also charged to the profit or loss at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Interest costs arising on discounted loans are transferred to the profit or loss reserve from the capital contribution reserve to unwind the discount gain calculated using a market rate of interest on the inception of the loan.

Tax

The tax expense for the period comprises tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same authority.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

 

Architech Software Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Office equipment

Straight line over 4 years

Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for licensing and services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the Company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Profit and Loss Account over the period of the relevant borrowing. Interest-free borrowings are discounted using a market rate of interest and are unwound to the profit or loss over the period of the loan. The equity element is recognised in the capital contribution reserve. The Directors have elected to make an annual transfer from the capital contribution reserve to retained earnings equal to the interest expense on the loan under the amortised cost method.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a
past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can
be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present
obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the
obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of
the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

 

Architech Software Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

Leases

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

Capital contribution reserve

The capital contribution reserve represents a capital contribution arising on a loan received from the parent company at a below-market rate of interest.

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

Share based payments

The Company has entered into a cash-settled phantom share option scheme. Waggel Limited, a subsidiary company, recognises a share of the expense and liability of the scheme over the vesting period.

The Company measures the scheme at the reporting date. The Group's liability is measured using the fair value of the share options at the reporting date. The scheme has 358,045 phantom units in issue as at 31 December 2023 of which 60% of the units will vest on the 'cliff date' being the 3rd anniversary of each employee's joining date to the scheme. A further 20% of phantom units will vest on the 4th anniversary and the remaining 20% will vest at the end of the 5-year vesting period.


The liability is presented in liabilities, split for current and non-current amounts. Movements in the scheme liability is recognised in the profit or loss.

Management has made judgements to whether non-market based vesting are met, these are reviewed at each reporting date. Vesting conditions are met if employees remain in employment within the Group. If an employee leaves the Group before the cliff date, that employee will lose their rights to any phantom units held. Furthermore, if an employee remains employed at each vesting date, those shares due to vest at the given date will vest immediately.

Should management determine that non-market based vesting conditions will not be met, the liability will be reversed in full.

There are no market based vesting conditions.

The scheme is held by the Company and an element of the scheme liability and expense are recharged to the subsidiary company at each reporting date. The recharge is based on the Group's full-time equivalents and their apportionment of time and services provided to each member company of the Group.

Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Financial instruments

Classification
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS12 to all of its financial instruments. The Company only has financial instruments that meet the requirements of basic financial instruments.

 Recognition and measurement
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities including creditors and loans from fellow group companies are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Capital contribution reserves recognised on the equity element of interest free loans that are discounted at a market rate of interest is recognised in the reserve and reduced by any impairment recognised to the parent company's corresponding investment in order to mitigate the risk of an accounting mismatch. The Directors have elected to make an annual transfer to retained earnings from the capital contribution reserve equal to the interest cost recognised on the financial liability held at amortised cost.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 

Current versus non-current classification

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instruments is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Other borrowings

The carrying amount of Other borrowings at year end is £12,450,488 (2022 - £7,801,747).

The Company has six loans with its now majority shareholder, Correlation One Investments (Europe) Limited (Correlation). The first loan from the shareholder is an interest free loan and therefore discounted at market rate of interest judged by the Directors to be 8.5%. The carrying value of this loan is £1,557,368 (2022 - £1,435,363) and will be repaid in full on the date of maturity, 22 October 2029. The loan has been split in accordance with FRS 102 Section 11, into a liability component and an equity component. The equity component is recognised as a capital contribution from the shareholder on the inception of loan being the difference between the cash advanced and the present value of the loan.

The second loan from Correlation is an interest bearing loan of 8% plus the Bank of England base rate % with a total loan facility of £1,500,000. Interest is compounded and paid in arrears at the end of the financial year with a final repayment of capital due on the date of maturity, 31 December 2026. The loan's carrying value is £1,866,061 (2022 - £1,651,490), repayable between 2-5 years. At the balance sheet date, interest of £371,048 (2022 - £151,490) is due for repayment.

The third loan from Correlation is a convertible loan with a loan facility of £3,000,000. Interest is compounded and repaid along with the loan capital on the date of maturity, 31 December 2026. Interest is charged at 8% plus the Bank of England base rate. The carrying value of the loan is £3,699,140 (2022 - £3,266,047) and is repayable in 2-5 years.

As the convertible loan demands the same interest rate as the interest charged on the interest bearing loans from Correlation, the whole convertible loan is judged by the Directors to be a full debt instrument under FRS 102 Section 11 with no requirement to recognise an equity element to the loan.
