Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2023
General information |
Carmenta Technologies Ltd (the 'company') is a private company limited by share capital, registered in England and Wales under the Companies Act. The address of the registered office is given on page 1. The nature of the company’s operations and its principal activities are set out in the directors' report on page 2.
Accounting policies |
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.
Going concern
The director has considered the company's financial position, liquidity and future performance together with financial projections for the company and over the foreseeable future and has also reviewed the ongoing financial support from the company's parent undertaking and is confident this will be available for the foreseeable future. After making enquiries, the director is satisfied that the company has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statement. Accordingly, the director continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the company's financial statements.
Carmenta Technologies Limited is reliant on the support of Carmenta Geospatial Technologies AB as the parent company which is committed to the UK market and has demonstrated its support through a letter of support.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.
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 functional currency of the company is considered to be pound sterling (£) because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates. The financial statements are presented in pound sterling (£).

Accounting policies (continued) |
Summary of disclosure exemptions
The company meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 102 and has therefore taken advantage of the disclosure exemptions available to it in respect of its separate financial statements. The company is consolidated in the financial statements of its parent, Carmenta Geospatial Technologies AB, which may be obtained from Box 11354, Gothenburg, 404 28, Sweden. Exemptions have been taken in these separate company financial statements in relation to financial instruments, presentation of a cash flow statement, transactions with group entities and remuneration of key management personnel.
Critical judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainties
There were no key sources of estimation uncertainties or critical judgements made by the directors in the process of applying the company’s accounting policies with significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Revenue recognition
Revenue represents the value of consideration receivable for the provision of research and development services to its parent undertaking, net of value added tax. Revenue from the provision of services is recognised when the services have been provided. Revenue is recognised when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured and it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the company.
Grants
Research and development costs
The company expenses all research costs as incurred. Expenditure on development activities, whereby research findings are applied to a plan or design for the production of new substantially improved processes, is capitalised as an intangible asset if the process is technically and commercially feasible and the company has sufficient resources and the intention to complete development. All other development expenditures and expenditures on research activities are recognised in the Income Statement.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current 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.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at bank.

Accounting policies (continued) |
Receivables
Trade and other receivables that are receivable within one year and do not constitute a financing transaction are recorded at the undiscounted amount expected to be received, net of impairment. Those that are receivable after more than one year or that constitute a financing transaction are recorded initially at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently at amortised cost, net of impairment.
Payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade and other payables 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 and other payables that are payable within one year and do not constitute a financing transaction are recorded at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid. Those that are payable after more than one year or that constitute a financing transaction are recorded initially at transaction price and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
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.
Defined contribution pension obligation
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the schemes are held separately from those of the company. 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.
