NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Etesia U.K. 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 Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


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" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going Concern
The company has sustained operating losses for this year and preceding years. The company's turnover decreased in the 2024 financial year due to the parent company becoming the victim of a cyber attack in February 2024 which significantly impacted the operational ability of the parent company and the supply chain of Etesia U.K. Limited. The forecast for the current year is positive with the new products now selling well. The director has received confirmation of financial support from the Etesia Group but in the event of the parent company calling in its debt, the company would be required to seek replacement financing.

On the basis of this support and the plans and forecasts the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Significant judgements and estimates
In the application of the company'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.

Turnover
Turnover from the sale of goods and services is recognised in the profit and loss account, net of discounts and value added tax, when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. In general this occurs when the machinery or parts have been supplied.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Fixtures and equipment - 33% on cost and 10% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on cost
Office equipment - 33% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses.

Loans and borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Taxation
The tax expense for the period comprises tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income. Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet 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
Assets acquired under finance leases are capitalised and depreciated over the expected useful life of the asset. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding lease liability using the effective interest method. The related obligations, net of future finance charges, are included in creditors.

Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

10. DISCLOSURE UNDER SECTION 444(5B) OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

The Report of the Auditors was qualified on the following basis:

Basis for qualified opinion
On 2 February 2024, the parent company was victim of a cyber-attack which significantly impacted the operational ability of the parent company and the supply chain of Etesia U.K Limited(the 'company'). In the event of the parent company calling in its debt, the company would be required to seek replacement financing. This situation indicates that a material uncertainty exists for the company to continue as a going concern.

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 company 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 qualified opinion.

James Syree Bsc FCA (Senior Statutory Auditor)
for and on behalf of Ballards LLP

We draw your attention to note 2 in the financial statements which indicates that the Company has a net loss before tax of £182,258 (2023 - £57,047) during the year ended 31 July 2024 and, as of that date, the company had net liabilities of £288,455 (2023 - £71,851). These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The parent company has indicated its intention to continue to provide the necessary financial support for 12 months beyond the signing date of the accounts. However, we have been unable to satisfy ourselves that the parent company has adequate resources to meet this commitment. Thus, our opinion is modified in respect of this matter.

11. OTHER FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS

Total financial commitments, guarantees and contingencies which are not included in the balance sheet amount to £41,453 (2023 - £84,818).

12. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

13. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY

The ultimate parent undertaking and controlling entity is Société Elmar Wolf Sas, a company registered in
France.
