Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 May 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Shield Service Group Ltd is a private company , 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.

Turnover
Turnover represents amounts receivable for the provision of cleaning services after deduction of trade discounts and value added tax. Turnover is recognised on a time incurred basis.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist entirely of goodwill arising on acquisition of subsidiary companies and customer lists. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries and other assets is the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the fair value of the fixed assets and liabilities acquired. Goodwill is being written off evenly over its estimated useful life of twelve years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Plant and machinery etc - 50% on cost, 25% on cost, 25% on reducing balance, 20% on cost and 15% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Consolidated accounts
The company is exempt from preparing consolidated financial statements on the grounds that, taken with its subsidiaries, it qualifies as a small group under S398 of the Companies Act 2006. These financial statements therefore present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 466 (2023 - 468 ) .
