Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended 31 March 2024
Norfolk and Waveney Enterprise Services is a private company limited by guarantee and incorporated in the United Kingdom. The address of the registered office is given in the company information of these financial statements and this is also the principal place of business. The company's registration number is 01633258. Norfolk and Waveney Enterprise Services and its 100% subsidiary are owned and managed as an informal 'Group' (the Quasi-Group) with NBV Enterprise Solutions Limited (company registration number 01678839) and its 100% subsidiary NBV Property Management Ltd (company registration number 04283234). The two parent companies in the Quasi-Group are both Limited by Guarantee and share the same Members. The Board of directors for all four companies in the Quasi-Group is identical.
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 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 Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies.
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of comprehensive income in these financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the Company and have been rounded to the nearest £1.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
Exemption has been taken to exclude Enterprise for London Limited from the consolidated accounts on the basis that it is immaterial to the Group financial statements.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
In preparing the financial statements, the Directors have paid due regard to relevant forecast financial information, including cash flows, and factored in sensitivities and uncertainties affecting the Group. As disclosed in note 1, the Company and its subsidiary are part of a Quasi-Group with NBV Enterprise Solutions Limited (company registration number 01678839) and its 100% subsidiary NBV Property Management Ltd.
As disclosed in note 16 to the financial statements NWES Property Services Limited has a contingent liability in respect of a potential clawback of funding regarding an historic project. The Directors have carefully considered the matter, and it is clear from relevant documentation that the clawback is discretionary. The Group is corresponding with the funder, but the potential claim is at the very early stages of resolution and therefore any outcome cannot be reliably estimated at the time of the approval of the financial statements. As the clawback is discretionary any liability is only possible and therefore has not been provided for but disclosed in the financial statements, in line with financial reporting standards. The Directors have considered a range of scenarios in respect of this matter and are confident that this would not result in a material uncertainty in respect of the going concern of the Group.
As of 31 March 2024, the Company had net current liabilities and due to the current position on some projects within Norfolk and Waveney Enterprise Services Limited the Company may require financial support from its fellow group company to meet its liabilities as they fall due. This potential requirement has been modelled over the next twelve months and the Directors consider that the current levels of cash reserves within the Group should be adequate to cover the expected maximum requirement. NWES Property Services Limited has confirmed its willingness to support Norfolk and Waveney Enterprise Services Limited.
NWES Property Services Limited has also signified its willingness to provide financial support to a fellow Quasi-Group member, NBV Enterprise Solutions Limited to meet its liabilities as they fall due, and the cash forecasts and reserves are considered to be sufficient to enable that pledge to be honoured.
In the Directors’ opinion, the Group is a going concern for a minimum of twelve months from the date of the approval of the financial statements.
Turnover principally consists of rental income, management charges and grant income.
Rental, contract and training course income and management charges are recognised on an accruals basis as to match the revenue earned to the period in which the services are provided.
Capital grant income is released in line with the terms and conditions of any grant or in the useful economic life of the asset to which the funding relates.
Revenue grants are recognised in the profit and loss so as to match them with the relevant expenditure for which they have been granted.
|
|
Operating leases: the Group 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)
|
|
Leased assets: the Group as lessor
|
Where assets leased to a third party give rights approximating to ownership (finance lease), the lessor recognises as a receivable an amount equal to the net investment in the lease i.e. the minimum lease payments receivable under the lease discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. This receivable is reduced as the lessee makes capital payments over the term of the lease.
A finance lease gives rise to two types of income: profit or loss equivalent to the profit or loss resulting from outright sale of the asset being leased, at normal selling prices, reflecting any applicable discounts, and finance income over the lease term.
|
|
Leased assets: the Group as lessee
|
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.
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 Consolidated statement of comprehensive income in the same period as the related expenditure.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
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.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Defined contribution pension plan
The Group operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Group 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 Group in independently administered funds.
|
|
Current and deferred taxation
|
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. 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 and the Group operate and generate income.
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:
∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits;
∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
∙Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
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 provided on the following basis:

|
|
Short-term leasehold property

|

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Investment property is carried at fair value determined annually by external valuers and derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. No depreciation is provided. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment. An entity is treated as an associated undertaking where the Group exercises significant influence in that it has the power to participate in the operating and financial policy decisions. Where the Group's share of net liabilities in an associate exceeds the carrying value of its investment, the share of reported losses is not recognised.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
|
|
Provisions for liabilities
|
Provisions are recognised when an event has taken place that gives rise to a legal or constructive obligation, a transfer of economic benefits is probable and a reliable estimate can be made.
Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation, taking into account the related risks and uncertainties.
Increases in provisions are generally charged as an expense to profit or loss.
The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
The Group has elected to apply the recognition and measurement provisions of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (as adopted by the UK Endorsement Board) with the disclosure requirements of Sections 11 and 12 and the other presentation requirements of FRS 102.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Balance sheet when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

|
Financial instruments (continued)
|
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 trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, 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.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets, which includes investments in equity instruments which are not classified as subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the recognised transaction price. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with the changes in fair value being recognised in the profit or loss. Where other financial assets are not publicly traded, hence their fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost less impairment.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.
Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.
If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instruments any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other payables, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price after transaction costs. When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Financial instruments (continued)
|
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Other financial instruments
Derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, futures contracts and interest rate swaps, are not classified as basic financial instruments. These are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into, with costs being charged to the profit or loss. They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in the profit or loss.
Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions as set out in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through the profit or loss. This recognition and measurement would also apply to financial instruments where the performance is evaluated on a fair value basis as with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
Derecognition of financial instruments
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended 31 March 2024
The Group has a guarantee relating to a performance bond with Harlow Council. The maximum value of the guarantee is £135,000 and no liability is expected to arise in respect of this.
The Group has a contingent liability in respect of a potential clawback of funding regarding an historic project. The Directors have carefully considered the matter, and it is clear from relevant documentation that the clawback is discretionary. The Group is corresponding with the funder, but the potential claim is at the very early stages of resolution and therefore any outcome cannot be reliably estimated at the time of the approval of the financial statements. Therefore, no provision has been made in the financial statements, in line with financial reporting standards nor any quantum disclosed.
It was expected that the Group would be required to pay dilapidations costs in relation to a property lease which ended in July 2024, however it has been verbally agreed with the lessor that under a new management agreement, the Group will no longer lease the property and will instead receive a monthly fee to manage the entire site and rather than paying a dilapidations fee, the Group will carry out agreed maintenance and repair works throughout the term of the management agreement, the value of such maintenance and repair works are currently unquantifiable.
The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme for the benefit of employees who wish to make provisions for pensions. The pension cost charge in the year represents contributions payable by the Group to the scheme and amounted to £45,585 (2023: £40,959).
Contributions totalling £10,047 (2023: £9,769) were payable to the scheme at the end of the year.
