NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Kaleyra UK Limited (the Company) is a private company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales.The address of its registered office and principal place of business is 30 St Mary Axe, Level 34, London EC3A 8EP.
The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
These financial statements are prepared for the period from 1 January 2023 to 31 March 2024.
Comparatives shown are for the year ended 31 December 2022. The figures reported across the two periods are therefore not entirely comparable.
2.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 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 preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the company's accounting policies.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis notwithstanding the fact that
the company has a deficiency on total equity at the end of the year. The directors consider this basis
to be appropriate as the company has received a letter of financial support from its parent company.
Accordingly the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Revenue is represented by the provision of mobile content and messaging solutions net of Value Added Tax. Revenue is recognised through monthly issued traffic being reconciled and agreed between Kaleyra UK Limited and its customers. The agreed corresponding sale is recorded as revenue in the accounts.
|
|
Exemption from preparing consolidated financial statements
|
The Company owns 100% of the issued share capital of mGage Athens Private Company (incorporated in Greece). The Company and the Group headed by Kaleyra UK Limited, qualify as small as set out in section 383 of the Companies Act 2006 and the Company and the Group are considered eligible from the exemption to prepare consolidated accounts.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
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. If reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed five years.
Amortisation is provided on the following bases:
Intellectual property - 33% Straight line
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:
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.
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.
The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are 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).
|
|
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.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The company's functional and presentational currency is Sterling (£).
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 are presented in profit or loss within 'administrative expenses'.
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.
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.
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.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
Current and deferred 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 balance sheet date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.
|
The average monhtly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 28 (2022:28).
