NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1.


General information

Malin + Goetz Limited is a private company limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales. The address of the registered office is disclosed on the company information page. The company's principal place of business is 4th Floor, 385-389 Oxford Street, London, W1C 2NB. In the prior year, the financial statements were prepared for the period from 2nd January 2022 to 31st December 2022.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

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 Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the company will continue to trade in operational existence for the foreseeable future. 
The Company incurred a net loss in the year totalling £1,355,765 and net current liabilities of £5,005,388. Included within liabilities are amounts owed to its parent entity of £ 7,302,326.
 
The directors have updated their forecasts together with wider group information and consider that there are sufficient resources and support available to the Company from the group to settle any amounts due. Consequently, the directors have prepared the accounts in the going concern basis. Given the uncertainty surrounding even the most careful projections and the reliance upon parent support, a material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  
The parent company, Malin + Goetz Inc., has confirmed that it will continue to provide financial resources as may be required for the company to meet its financial commitments as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. 
While the balance sheet position shows significant net liabilities as at 31 December 2023, the parent company has confirmed that, as the major creditor of the UK company, it will not demand repayment of the amounts outstanding until such time that the company is able to make repayments without having a detrimental impact on the company. 
The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

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 Income and Retained Earnings 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 recognised by the company in respect of beauty goods supplied during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts. 
Turnover is recognised upon dispatch of goods from the warehouse or when a sale is made in store or online.

 
2.5

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.

 
2.6

Government grants

Grants are accounted under the accruals model as permitted by FRS 102. Grants relating to expenditure on tangible fixed assets are credited to profit or loss at the same rate as the depreciation on the assets to which the grant relates. The deferred element of grants is included in creditors as deferred income.
Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income in the same period as the related expenditure.

 
2.7

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.8

Pensions

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 Statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

 
2.9

Taxation

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 reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

 
2.10

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life and are amortised on a straight line basis over this time. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
The estimated useful life of computer software is 4 years as this is the expected economic life of the asset.

 
2.11

Tangible fixed assets

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.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Leasehold property
-
over length of the lease
Fixtures and fittings
-
3-5 Years
Computer equipment
-
3 Years

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.

At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

  
2.13

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financialassets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
