NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
At the period end the Company is in a net asset position of $232,396, which is supported by an intercompany receivable of $341,904. Aravo Solutions UK Ltd has received written confirmation from its parent company, Aravo Solutions, Inc., that it will continue to provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements.
The director has assessed the expected future cash requirement of the Company in conjunction with the forecasts of the parent company and has concluded that the required support remains available to the Company. For this reason, the director continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional currency is GBP. This differs from the presentational currency which is USD. The reason for the difference is that the management accounts are prepared for the purposes of consolidation into the parent company. Preparation of these financial statements in USD helps to align with group reporting.
Exchange differences arising on translation of the Company's net position from functional currency to presentational currency are recognised in other comprehensive income and the foreign exchange reserve.
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.
|
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.
Rendering of services
Turnover is recognised on a cost plus 7% basis, in line with the intercompany service agreement with the parent company. Intercompany turnover is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
∙the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;
∙it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the intercompany service agreement;
∙the costs incurred under the intercompany service agreement can be measured reliably.
|
|
Operating leases: the Company as lessee
|
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.
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.
Defined contribution pension plan
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.
|
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Where share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the options granted. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition.
The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the Company keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the scheme).
Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period.
Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives range as follows:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Amounts owed by group undertakings are intercompany loans which are unsecured, interest free and repayable on demand. Debtors are subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
|
|
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 held on deposit by service providers is included within bank and cash balances, as these amounts are highly liquid and repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.
Creditors are measured at the transaction price and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The auditors' report on the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 was unqualified.
The audit report was signed on 24 September 2024 by Edward Wallis ACA (Senior Statutory Auditor) on behalf of ZEDRA Corporate Reporting Services (UK) Limited.
|
The average monthly number of employees during the year was 4 (2022 - 7).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Capital contribution reserve
Certain employees of the Company are invited to participate in the share option plan of the parent company, Aravo Solutions, Inc.
Share options are granted to employees and vest over a four year period, with 25% vesting after one year and the remaining portion vesting monthly thereafter.
An expense equivalent to the fair value of the option at the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares is recognised in profit or loss and recorded evenly in line with the vesting period with the corresponding entry being made to the capital contribution reserve since the shares are held in the parent company, Aravo Solutions, Inc.
Foreign exchange reserve
The foreign exchange reserve represents amounts arising on translation of the Company's net position from the functional currency in GBP to the presentational currency in USD.
