General information

The principal activity of the Company is the provision of an auditorium and related facilities to a joint venture (Lightroom KX Ltd) for the purpose of launching and operating the Lightroom, an immersive projected art experience which opened in February 2023.
The Company is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in England and Wales.
The registered office address is C/O Womble Bond Dickinson (UK) LLP, 4 More London Riverside, London, United Kingdom, SE1 2AU.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

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 FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 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 preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Exemption for qualifying entities under FRS 102

FRS 102 allows a qualifying entity certain disclosure exemptions. Subject to certain conditions which have been complied with, including notification of, and no objection to, the use of exemptions by the Company. The Company has taken advantage of the following exemptions, under FRS 102 paragraph 1. 12(b) on the basis that it is a qualifying entity and the ultimate parent undertaking, London Theatre Company Holdings London Limited, includes the equivalent disclosures in its own consolidated financial statements. These exemptions are: 
a) the requirement to prepare a statement of cash flows; 
b) the non-disclosure of key management personnel compensation in total as required by FRS 102 paragraph 33, 7.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Going concern

The directors have assessed whether the Company  has adequate resources to meet its obligations as they fall due for the period covering 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements, considering in particular challenges that the pandemic and the post-pandemic world have posed for the Company and the wider Group's activities (London Theatre Company Group), upon which the Company is reliant  to generate working capital to fund its financial overheads.
The Company made a loss for the year of £105,953 and had, as at the Statement of  Financial Position date, a net liability position of £533,263. Its parent was owed £1,235,285 and without this, the Company would be in a net asset position. The Company is reliant on the continued support of its parent ('LTC Holdings'), which has pledged its full support to the Company. LTC Holdings has an outstanding shareholder loan, advanced pre-pandemic to facilitate cash flow management, as well as £6.5m in debt from the Culture Recovery Fund. 
LTC KX's lease on the property at King's Cross completed in October 2021. The property has been subleased (until late 2026) to Lightroom, an immersive projected art experience that opened in early 2023 in which the Group has a significant shareholding.  This will ensure that LTC KX's financial obligations are met. The Board undertakes scenario planning and financial cashflow modelling on an ongoing basis, covering at least 12 months from the date of signing of the financial statements, to ensure they keep abreast of the group’s financial position. The Board are also aware that while these forecasts show the ability of the LTC Holdings and the group to continue to meet its debts as they fall due, however in order to do this they need to renegotiate the repayment terms of the Cultural Recovery Fund loan, and will be reliant on the Culture Recovery Fund’s continued support, so as not to withdraw this funding. Should the Culture Recovery Fund choose to withdraw the funding, LTC Holdings would need to seek alternative sources of funding in order to meet its debts as they fall due, and would no longer be in a position to be able to continue to support this company.
In light of all the above, the directors have prepared these accounts on a going concern basis. 

 
2.4

Revenue

Revenue is generated from recharging rent, service charges and its associated depreciation for Lightroom to Lightroom KX Ltd.
Revenue is recognised in the period in which the rent, service charge and depreciation occur.

 
2.5

Operating leases: the Company as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is credited to the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Amounts paid and payable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised as a reduction to income over the lease term on a straight-line basis, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern over which the lessor's benefit from the leased asset is diminished.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Operating leases: the Company as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

 
2.7

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 reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.


 
2.8

Tangible fixed assets

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:

Long-term leasehold property
-
25 years

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.

Employees




The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 2 (2023 - 2).

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024

4.


Taxation

Both a deferred tax asset on losses and deferred tax liability on fixed asset timing differences exist for the Company, however the directors have made the decision not to recognise either in the financial statements, in order for the financial statements to remain true and fair. 
The deferred tax asset exists due to the ownership of the fixed assets generating a substantial amount of tax losses that remain unused in the business. As the capital allowances in excess of depreciation is what created the deferred tax liability, and the fact that these losses remain unused have created a deferred tax asset, it does not feel meaningful to disclose one without the other.
Were this to be disclosed in the financial statements, the deferred tax asset would be £533,000.

Auditors' information

The auditors' report on the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2024 was unqualified.

In their report, the auditors emphasised the following matter without qualifying their report:
We draw attention to note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company and Group's forecasted cashflow projections for the 12 months from the date of signing indicate that the Group's cashflow position is expected to remain positive, thus enabling them to meet all debts arising as they fall due, however this is dependent on the renegotiated payment terms and covenants of the Cultural Recovery Fund being accepted by the Arts Council, who have advanced a sum of £6.5m to the London Theatre Company Holdings Limited (the 'Parent'). While the Cultural Recovery Fund has previously confirmed to the directors its intention to continue to support cultural organisations such as the London Theatre Company, it is still the legal position that the Fund could require immediate repayment of these loans following a breach of this covenant and defaulting on the current repayment terms. If the Cultural Recovery Fund did choose this course of action, the Group would need to find alternative funding to meet this liability, resulting in a material uncertainty that could cast significant doubt on the Group's or the Company's ability to continue as a 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 if these terms are successfully renegotiated. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

The audit report was signed on 25 March 2025 by Myfanwy Neville FCA (Senior Statutory Auditor) on behalf of BKL Audit LLP.
