Company information

Red Mist Holdings Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Wool Barn, Peper Harow, Godalming, Surrey, GU8 6BQ.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 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 financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

The Company has net liabilities of £138,469 (2022: net assets £1,800,709) and net current assets of £12,923,513 (2022: £14,496,331).true

 

The directors have reviewed the future liquidity requirements and have considered the cash flow forecasts of the company. The company is party to a group structure and the group produces long-term financial forecasts which show the company is able to operate and meet its financial obligations as they fall due as they have support from its holding company as and when required. Fellow group companies will also relinquish the right to call up intercompany loans owned by the company when required. Based on this review and the future business prospects of the company and its group the directors believe the company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Fixed asset investments

Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

An associate is an entity, being neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture, in which the company holds a long-term interest and where the company has significant influence. The company considers that it has significant influence where it has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the associate.

Entities in which the company has a long term interest and shares control under a contractual arrangement are classified as jointly controlled entities.

1.4
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.5
Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

 

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

1.6
Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

Related party transactions

KH V Lending 302 Limited is a company who's ultimate parent entity is Kitty Hawk Capital Partners V LP, a limited partnership registered in Jersey, and which has a controlling interest in Red Lion Holdings LLP, the smallest and largest undertaking which produces consolidated accounts that include the Company. During the year KH V Lending 302 Limited provided a number of loans to the Company as set out below:

 

On 22 January 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with KH V Lending 302 Limited totalling £6,300,000. Amounts lent under the agreement accrue interest at 10% per annum. Total interest recognised in the year totals £630,000 (2022: £546,528). Total amounts are repayable under the terms of the agreement under a joint venture which allows repayment of the loan only after the calculation of a residual surplus after accounting for other specified expenses, taxes and loan repayments of the group headed by Red Mist Holdings Limited calculated over each distribution period (being monthly or 1 day before the dissolution or sale of the company).

 

On this basis amounts held under the loan totalling £6,300,000 (2022: £6,300,000) have been presented within creditors due in more than one year as, on the basis of the conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, the lender has no mechanism to enforce payment within one year.

 

Additionally, the company entered into a separate loan agreement with KH V Lending 302 Limited for monies totalling £5,000,000 (2022: £5,000,000). Interest was payable at a rate of 12% per annum for the first six months and 18% per annum thereafter, compounded on each interest payment date, being every three months after the loan is made. The loan termination date is two years. Interest charged on this loan totalled £796,360 (2022: £689,524).

 

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption available under FRS 102 not to disclose transactions with wholly owned group members.
