BONSAI HOLDINGS LLP (REGISTERED NUMBER: OC420207)

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


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Bonsai Holdings LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General 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 requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Related party exemption
The LLP has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Turnover
Turnover comprises rental income and other recoveries from tenants of the LLP's investment properties net of value added tax. Rental income is recognised on an accruals basis in the period in which it is earned, in accordance with the terms of the lease.

Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of total rental income, and are accounted for as a reduction of rental income over the lease term.

Service charge income is not recognised as the LLP gains no economic benefit from this income as it is to be fully applied to meeting the cost of property expenditure which is the responsibility of the tenants. Similarly, service charge expenditure is only recognised to the extent that it is not recoverable from tenants.

Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

Investment property
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Going concern
Either of the class A or class B members can, after 31 January 2022, require that the LLP commence a process which will lead to an exit event, which would result in the winding up of the LLP. This right has not been exercised from 1 February 2022 up to the approval of the financial statements and there is no expectation that this right will be exercised in the foreseeable future (ie for at least one year after the approval of these financial statements).

The LLP is part of a group formed as a special purpose vehicle. The original business model anticipated that the group would have sold its properties and repaid its debt by May 2023. However, for a variety of reasons, this timing has not been achieved and as disclosed in note 16, subsequent to the year end, the members have refinanced the LLP’s bank loans and agreed extended repayment term of the other loans.

The LLPs’ business model, including cash flow forecasts, has been updated and show that:
- the LLP will have sufficient resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future; and
- the LLP will meet its loan covenants.

The impact of future economic uncertainties, including a reduction in rental income, an increase in bad debt expenses and an increase in capital costs, have also been assessed. The business model shows that under reasonable plausible scenarios, the LLP will still have sufficient resources and will still meet its loan covenants.

Accordingly, the members have concluded that, although there are material uncertainties relating to the ability of the LLP to continue as a going concern, it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis. The financial statements do not include adjustments that would result if the LLP was unable to continue as a going concern.

Member's participation rights
Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' agreement (for example, in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remuneration and profits).

Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with FRS102. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is discretionary on the part of the LLP.

Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed by members, for example members' capital, are classed as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have such an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities.

Profits are automatically divided as they arise, so the LLP does not have an unconditional right torefuse payment. The amounts arising that are due to members are in the nature of liabilities. They are therefore treated as an expense in the profit and loss account in the relevant year. To the extent that they remain unpaid at the year end, they are shown as liabilities in the Balance Sheet.

Losses are treated in the same manner as profits.

All amounts due to members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the balance sheet within 'Loans and other debts due to members' and are charged to the profit and loss account within 'Members' remuneration charged as an expense'. Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the balance sheet within 'Members' other interests'.

3. EMPLOYEE INFORMATION

The average number of employees during the year was 2 (2022 - 2 ) .
