The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England & Wales. The address of the registered office is Eastcastle House, 27/28 Eastcastle Street, London, W1W 8DH, United Kingdom.
2. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
The directors have confirmed they will continue supporting the company for the forseeable future and they will not seek repayment of the loan due to them until such time the company is in a position to do so. A legal claim from a third party has been made against the company. The directors believe the company has good prospects of successfully defending the claim. If the legal claim was successful this would cast a significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
