Directors' responsibilities statement

The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
 
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and UK-adopted International accounting standards.  Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. 

 In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:


select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ONIKI LIMITED
 

Opinion on the financial statements

In our opinion the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs as at 31 December 2023 and of its result for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the UK; and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

We have audited the financial statements of Oniki Limited (“the Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the UK. 

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. 

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ONIKI LIMITED
 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Other Companies Act 2006 reporting

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

the information given in the Directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of Directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 
the Directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the Directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic report.

Responsibilities of Directors

As explained more fully in the Directors’ Responsibilities Statement, the Directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ONIKI LIMITED
 

Based on our understanding of the Company and industry in which it operates, we considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006, the relevant financial reporting framework and tax legislation. We also considered other laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instances through the imposition of fines or litigation. We identified the following areas as those most likely to have such an effect: health and safety, anti-bribery, maritime law, and certain aspects of relevant applicable legislation in countries where the Company operates its vessel. 

We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements, including the risk of override of controls, and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to revenue and management bias in accounting estimates, particularly in impairment reviews. 

We communicated identified laws and regulations and fraud risks throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audit.  

Audit procedures performed by the Company audit team included:

Inspecting correspondence with regulators and tax authorities;
Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non- compliance with laws and regulation and fraud;
Evaluating management’s controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities;
Identifying and testing journals, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations, postings by users outside their normal job role or with unusual descriptions and significant transactions made outside the normal course of business;
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their critical accounting estimates, including vessel impairment reviews; and
At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partner's review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud.

Owing to the inherent limitations in our audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: 
https://www.frc.org.uk /auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is USD.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

 
2.4

Revenue

Revenue is derived from chartering its vessel to third parties on either time charters or voyage charters.
Revenue derived from time charters is separated between the lease element of the predetermined rentals and the service element, based on the observable market rate for stand-alone bareboat charter at each contract inception. The service element is the difference between the equivalent bareboat rate and the agreed charter hire. The revenue is recognised concurrently.
Revenue derived from voyage charters is adjusted for off-hire days and is recognised daily as it accrues, on a straight-line basis over the period of the contract.
Contract assets are recognised when income has been earned but not yet received. Contract liabilities are recognised when billing and payment occur in advance of the provision of a service. These represent the difference between cumulative revenue recognised and the cumulative amounts billed for the contracts in place for the Group's shipping operations.

 
2.5

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
2.6

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

2.7

Inventories

Inventories comprise bunkers and lubricants on board vessel. Inventories are recognised at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a first-in, first-out basis.

  
2.8

Vessel

The vessel is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any provisions for impairment. Depreciation is provided on the basis that the book value of the vessel, less any estimated residual value, is written off on a straight line basis over the remaining useful economic life, taken to be 25 years from the build date, to an estimated residual value based on scrap rates at each balance sheet date.
Dry-docking costs are capitalised and written off over the estimated period to the next dry-docking. Unamortised costs are written off to profit or loss on disposal of the vessel.

 
2.9

Trade and other receivables

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

 
2.10

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management.

 
2.11

Creditors

Creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers.

Creditors are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

  
2.12

Financial instruments

Financial instruments are recognised on the Company’s balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial instruments are initially measured at fair value, which generally equates to acquisition cost and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

  
2.13

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Company's accounting policies, management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from estimates. The following summarises the judgements, estimates and assumptions that may cause amounts recognised or disclosed to change in following reporting periods:
Demurrage
When vessels on voyage charter are subject to delays a demurrage may be paid. This can occur due to factors such as port delays resulting in the vessel exceeding the allowed laytime per the charter party agreement at the ports visited. Estimation and judgements are required in ascertaining the most likely outcome of a particular voyage and actual outcomes may differ from estimates. We review such estimates and update them over the term of the voyage charter contract.
Asset impairment testing
The Company reviews its non-current assets for impairment at each balance sheet date. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, the value is adjusted to the recoverable amount, determined by independent, third-party valuations, or if impractical or unavailable, by value in use calculations which require estimates to be made of future cash flows. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, the value is adjusted to the fair value. Any impairment is recognised in profit or loss.
Residual values and estimated remaining lives
The carrying value of vessels is depreciated over their expected useful life of 25 years from date of build to an estimated residual value. Changes in the remaining useful life of the vessels and the residual value, determined based on year end scrap rates, would result in an adjustment to the current and future rate of depreciation through profit or loss.

15.Financial instruments (continued)


(iii) Financial instruments not measured at fair value.
Financial instruments not measured at fair value include cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and loans and borrowings.
Due to their short term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables approximates their fair value.
General objectives, policies, and processes
The key management of the Company have overall responsibility for the determination of the Company's risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Company's finance function. Key management receive monthly finance reports through which they review the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies they have set.
The overall objective of management is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company's competitiveness and flexibility.
Credit risk
The Company services the shipping market by leasing its vessels to third party charterers. The Company takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts when they fall due. Management mitigate this risk by only chartering the vessel to reputable companies, fixing the vessel on time charters and conducting comprehensive credit reviews of counterparties. Credit risk also arises from cash and cash equivalents however the risk is limited by only using banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. 
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company aims to mitigate liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
The following table represents the contractual maturities (representing undiscounted contractual cashflows) of financial liabilities excluding trade and other payables which are due on demand:

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
Currency risk
The Company has no significant assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar and therefore was not exposed to currency risk at the reporting date.
Interest rate risk
The Company's interest bearing financial assets and liabilities expose it to risks associated with the effect of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows. All of the Company's cash and cash equivalents are subject to variable interest rates and therefore are exposed to interest rate risk. As at the balance sheet date, should yields have increased/decreased by 150bps with all other variables remaining constant, the decrease/increase in the result for the year would have been $72,000 (2022: $82,800).
