Concrete Canvas Group Limited (Registered number: 07644731)

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

The directors present their strategic report of the company and the group for the year ended 31 August 2024.

The group's headquarters are based in Pontyclun, South Wales from where we operate our production, sales, logistics and R&D functions. In addition, we have overseas offices with staff in the USA (Colorado, Houston, Virginia), Ireland (Dublin), Italy (Milan), Hungary (Budapest), UAE (Dubai) and Australia (Sydney).

Concrete Canvas Group Ltd is the holding company of the following 4 entities with the following functions:
- Concrete Canvas Ltd: Established in 2005, this is the main trading arm of the group and is responsible for the
manufacture and distribution of Concrete Canvas products from it's headquarters in the UK.
- Concrete Canvas US Inc: Established in 2021, this is the US trading arm of the group with its registered office
in Houston, Texas and responsible for importation, sales and marketing of the groups manufactured products
within the United States of America.
- Concrete Canvas Technologies Ltd: Established in 2011, this entity owns the intellectual property assets
within the group including all associated patents.
- Concrete Canvas Properties Ltd: Established in 2013, this entity owns the property assets within the group
including the main manufacturing site located in Pontyclun, occupied in 2019.

The principal material technology (CC) was developed by the company in 2005, as a spin-out from Imperial College and the Royal College of Art. Concrete Canvas products consist of a dry concrete powder filled fabric which hardens on hydration to form a thin, durable, water-proof concrete layer. This material has been recognised by the international standards community as a new class of material known as GCCMs (Geosynthetic Cementitious Concrete Mats).

GCCMs can be used for a wide range of applications in erosion control and containment within the civil engineering world. The company currently sells primarily into 3 core market sectors Civil Infrastructure, Mining and Petrochem.

Concrete Canvas products have several key advantages over conventional solutions such as speed of installation, reduced plant equipment, lower carbon footprint and lower overall project costs. In addition, the business now enjoys strong brand recognition in the geosynthetics market with a reputation for quality, innovation and customer engagement. As the original creator of GCCMs the group is by far the largest manufacturer globally.

The majority of sales are into international markets through a network of more than 60 sales partners with exclusive distribution contracts by geographic region. These international partners are trained, managed and supported by our regional offices. In the UK and Ireland, the company sells directly through a team of technical sales representatives based across the UK and Ireland.

The groups over-arching strategy is to achieve growth in 3 ways:
- Expand sales of our existing products and applications by growing market share in existing geographic
territories and by signing new sales partners in new geographic territories.
- Expand sales of our existing products by developing new applications with lead customers in the UK and once
proven roll these out through our international sales partner network.
- Product development of new technologies based on our core expertise to allow us to access new markets and
applications and retain our technological lead.

Through Concrete Canvas Technologies Ltd, the group holds a strong patent portfolio with 118 patents pending or granted worldwide through 46 Territories including pending patents applications for the EPC and WIPO regional treaty areas. In addition to the CCX patent family the company holds it has recently filed a new patent family for the newly developed CCX-Barrier product.

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

Review of business
The group's principal activities throughout the year continued to be the manufacture and sale of the group's patented material technologies, ancillaries and associated fabricated products, namely; Concrete Canvas (CC), CCX & CC Hydro (CCH).

KPIs Year ended August 2024

2023-2024 2022-2023
Turnover £16.5Mn £18.1Mn
Gross Margin 50.3% 43.0%
EBITDA 22.3% 16.7%
Cash at Bank £5.4Mn £4.0Mn

There were some headwinds in first half of the year as delays to some large scale CCX projects resulted in lower than forecast sales turnover. As those project delays came to an end, sales returned to normal growth levels in the second half of the year to August 2024. The pipeline continues to be strong into the current financial year driven particularly by demand for CCX.

Growth in sales was achieved in North America, Europe and Oceania. It was particularly rewarding to see the recent investment in a dedicated US operation, result in the proportion of sales into the USA grow from 8% to 17%. It is expected that this trend will continue as the US trading arm further establishes its presence in this key growth market for the company.

Over 90% of all sales have been into Civil, Petrochem and Mining sectors. Following the CCX product launch in 2022 its importance to the business continues to grow with CCX accounted for 43% of total turnover in the 2023-24 year. The use of CCX on canal lining infrastructure profiles allows lining to be completed more quickly, at a lower cost and increased durability than conventional solutions. With climate change making water scarcity an increasingly pressing issue in many parts of the world the use of CCX in reducing seepage losses in canals can help mitigate some of its impacts. We anticipate this continuing to be an important growth segment for the business.

In the last financial year, the business has taken specific actions to increase gross margins and EBITDA % of Turnover. The focus on improving manufacturing efficiencies, optimising supply chain relationships and targeted sales approach in high value markets has successfully helped the company achieve its targets in 2023-24. Trading conditions into 2024-25 continue to be marked by both opportunities and challenges with areas such as underlying moderate inflation and rapidly changing geopolitical factors being challenges that the business will need to navigate.

In the last year the business continued to invest heavily in research and development. The focus of this R&D has been on the development of a new variant of CCX, called CCX-Barrier (CCX-B), designed to allow the company to access the containment sector. This new material is primarily designed for applications requiring high levels of impermeability and durability. We plan to start rolling our trials of CCX-B in the 2024-25 FY.

Net current assets at the end of the year is £8.1Mn compared to prior year £6.4Mn. The increase is primarily driven by an increase in the group's cash reserves. This increase in cash reserves will allow the group to invest in future expansion plans.

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024


SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting)

Concrete Canvas Group is committed to driving the transition to more sustainable manufacturing with a focus on reducing lifecycle CO2e emissions, waste and pollution. The following key investments have been made over the last 3 years:

- Scope 1: Supporting the transition away from petrol and diesel cars with 70% of company vehicles converting
to electric at the end of the financial year. We have also recently introduced a company salary sacrifice scheme
for electric vehicles to further promote this transition.
- Scope 2: Installation of a 1.1 MWp solar array covering most of the available roof area of the factory. The solar
panels were commissioned in June 2023 and generated 460MWh (53%) of site consumption in 2023-24 FY.
As well as supporting the company’s sustainability journey, this investment will also help to protect against
energy cost volatility.
- Scope 3: Development of a new lower carbon formulation for our CC product line. This was launched in June
2022 as the CC ‘T-series’ and has now fully replaced the conventional CC product across all product variants.
The new formulation reduces the embodied CO2e of the product by an average of 33%.

We have also invested in a carbon emission management platform in order to provide historic data for bench-marking and a means of ongoing measurement and analysis. We have published the company's first Carbon Reduction Plan in line with the requirements of UK Government PPN06/21 (Public Procurement Note 06/21), setting out our plans to further reduce emissions. Results for the last 2 years are listed below.

The information has been gathered using electricity and gas meter readings and by surveying those who use company vehicles. Conversions between kWh and CO2e made using government document "Greenhouse gas reporting: conversion factors 2024".

Scope 1 and 2 emissions have reduced by 40% over the period, although this was set against an 18% reduction in material volumes. Overall, we successfully reduced our intensity ratio by 27% over the period.

Although Scope 3 emissions are not listed, we are closely monitoring these internally and developing variants which will enable significant reductions in the use of raw materials associated with high carbon emissions through the formulation changes.

Group Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

Principal risks and uncertainties
The main risks to achieving the business strategy have been assessed by the Directors and can be summarised as follows;

Risk Potential Impact Mitigation
MacroEconomicoutlook Ongoing uncertainty at geopolitical levels impact on raw material prices, energy prices and low global growth. While being mindful of the macro-economic uncertainty, the diverse customer base and ability to export to all parts of the globe provides the company with a resilient demand outlook. The company has sufficient cash balances and as such we do not expect any liquidity problems. Further debt finance can be accessed by securing loans against the property which is 100% owned by the Group.

Copycat product enters market Competitor copies technology infringing business's Intellectual Property and take market share. Use of the extensive patent portfolio and registered Trade Marks to sue infringers and seek damages for loss of income. The business has 118 patents pending or granted worldwide through 46 Territories. CCT will seek to enforce it's IPR at a time and in a jurisdiction where it will achieve it's aim of minimising the economic impact of infringing activity on the groups sales.

Loss of Key Supplier The core material technology is reliant on bespoke input material components. Loss of one of these key suppliers could impact our production capacity and our ability to meet customer lead times. The business recognises the key role suppliers play in Concrete Canvas' ability to deliver quality and timely product to our customers. Dual supplier arrangements are in place for all critical components and the business can source alternative supply from existing pre-qualified suppliers for all non-critical components at short notice.

Production Line Breakdown The core production machinery is bespoke and only exists within the Pontyclun facility. A large-scale line breakdown could potentially impact on our ability to meet order lead times and loss of sales. We have invested heavily in our internal production engineering team and keep stock of spare machine parts as well as operating a preventative maintenance schedule. We also operate a stock buffer to maintain supply during short term interruptions in production capacity.

Personnel The business could be impacted by loss of key individuals. The business operates an EMI option scheme targeted at retaining key personnel. We are proactively recruiting staff across most departments on a regular basis. This provides us with the capacity and resource to grow whilst also providing some additional capacity in the case of personnel loss. The business invests in staff teambuilding and engagement events and aims to create a friendly cooperative workplace and culture.

Concrete Canvas Group Limited (Registered number: 07644731)

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company and the group for the year ended 31 August 2024.

Dividends
Non-voting dividends for the year amounted to £200,000 and interim dividends on ordinary shares amounted to £600,000.

Directors
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 September 2023 to the date of this report.

Mr P E Brewin
Mr W C Crawford
Mr R D Winter

Statement of directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Group Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and the group and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's and the group's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Statement as to disclosure of information to auditors
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the group's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group's auditors are aware of that information.

Auditors
The auditors, Haines Watts Wales LLP, Statutory Auditors, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

On behalf of the board:





Mr W C Crawford - Director

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Concrete Canvas Group Limited

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Concrete Canvas Group Limited (the 'parent company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 August 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Company Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:
-give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and of the parent company affairs as at 31 August 2024 and of the group's profit for the year then ended;
-have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Group Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Concrete Canvas Group Limited


Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page six, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Our planning procedures identify the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the operations and financial
statements of the company. These are reviewed internally with the audit team including relevant industry experience
and expectations as well as externally with the client management. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context were the UK Companies Act 2006, UK GAAP (FRS 102) and relevant tax legislation.

Once identified, we assess the risks of material misstatements in relation to the laws and regulations, irregularities,
including fraud and adjust our testing accordingly. Our audit procedures include:

- Discussing with Directors and management which areas of the business they believe to be more susceptible to
fraud, and whether they have any knowledge or suspicion of fraudulent activities.
- Discussing with Directors and management the legal and regulatory obligations of the business and whether they
have any knowledge or suspicion of non-compliance.
- Obtaining an understanding of the key controls put in place by the company to address risks identified,
assessing the effectiveness of those and discussing how these are maintained and monitored internally.
- Assessing the risk of management override and review and testing of journal entries made into the accounting
system.
- Challenging assumptions and judgements made by the company in relation to the significant accounting
estimates employed in the preparation of the financial statements.

Despite the audit being planned and conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) there remains an unavoidable risk that material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected owing to inherent limitations of the audit, and that by their very nature, any such instances of fraud or irregularities likely involve collusion, forgery, intentional
misrepresentation, or the override of internal controls.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

1. Statutory information

Concrete Canvas Group Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company'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" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Basis of consolidation
In the parent company financial statements, the cost of a business combination is the fair value at the acquisition date of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed, plus costs directly attributable to the business combination. The excess of the cost of a business combination over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is recognised as goodwill. The cost of the combination includes the estimated amount of contingent consideration that is probable and can be measured reliably, and is adjusted for changes in contingent consideration after the acquisition date. Provisional fair values recognised for business combinations in previous periods are adjusted retrospectively for final fair values determined in the 12 months following the acquisition date. Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are accounted for at cost less impairment.

Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the value of assets (other than goodwill) and liabilities recognised in a business combination accounted for using the purchase method and the amounts that can be deducted or assessed for tax, considering the manner in which the carrying amount of the asset or liability is expected to be recovered or settled. The deferred tax recognised is adjusted against goodwill or negative goodwill.

The consolidated group financial statements consist of the financial statements of the parent company Concrete Canvas Group Limited together with all entities controlled by the parent company (its subsidiaries) and the group's share of its interests in joint ventures and associates.

All financial statements are made up to 31 August 2024. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by other members of the group.

All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the group will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In making their assessment the directors have reviewed the balance sheet, the likely future cash flows of the business and have considered facilities that are in place at the date of signing the report. At the year ended 31 August 2024 the group had bank and cash equivalents of £5.4m and net assets of £17.2m.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Turnover
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.

When cash inflows are deferred and represent a financing arrangement, the fair value of the consideration is the present value of the future receipts. The difference between the fair value of the consideration and the nominal amount received is recognised as interest income.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Patents and licences are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of ten years.

Development costs are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of ten years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 10% on cost and 2-10% on cost
Plant and machinery - 10% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 10% on cost
Motor vehicles - 10% on cost
Computer equipment - 20% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition.

Stocks held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of the lower of cost and replacement cost, adjusted where applicable for any loss of service potential.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.

Financial instruments
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition.

Stocks held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of the lower of cost and replacement cost, adjusted where applicable for any loss of service potential.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.

2. Accounting policies - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Research and development
Research expenditure is written off against profits in the year in which it is incurred. Identifiable development expenditure is capitalised to the extent that the technical, commercial and financial feasibility can be demonstrated.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Impairment of assets
At each reporting period end date, the group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The carrying amount of the investments accounted for using the equity method is tested for impairment as a single asset. Any goodwill included in the carrying amount of the investment is not tested separately for impairment.

Recoverable around is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase,

Fixed asset investments
Equity investments are measured at fair value through profit or loss, except for those equity investments that are not publicly traded and whose fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably, which are recognised at cost less impairment until a reliable measure of fair value becomes available.

In the parent company financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

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

3. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the group's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
