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


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Nexus Bioquest 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.

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.

Turnover
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents the amount receivable for services rendered net of discounts and rebates allowed by the Company and value added taxes.

The Company recognises revenue when (a) the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, (b) the Company retains no continuing involvement or control over the goods, (c) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, (d) it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity, (e) when the specific criteria relating to the each of Company's sales channels have been met, as described below:

(i) Sale of services
The Company provides pharmaceutical research services to its customers in exchange for a fee which is generally dependent on the resource dedicated to the project and charged at a certain rate per full time equivalent (FTE) employee per year. Revenue on such contracts is recognised as the services are rendered. The Company also receives milestone payments, these are recognised as revenue when achieved. In other cases, the Company performs research services on a fixed price basis. In this case, turnover is recognised as work is performed using the percentage of completion method, as measured by costs incurred to date compared to estimated total costs at completion.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets (unbilled revenue), and contract liabilities (current and long-term deferred revenue and customer contract deposits) on the balance sheet. A contract asset is recorded when a right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to a customer is conditioned other than passage of time. A contract liability is recorded when consideration is received, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract. Contract liabilities are recognised aa revenue after control of the products or services is transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - in accordance with the property
Plant and machinery - 20% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 10% on cost
Computer 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.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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.

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.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 28 (2023 - 10 ) .

6. DEBTORS: AMOUNTS FALLING DUE WITHIN ONE YEAR - continued

The directors have chosen not to recognise a portion of the deferred tax asset related to available tax losses at this time. This decision is based on a conservative approach given recent losses experienced by the Company.

The decision not to recognise the deferred tax asset is not indicative of a lack of confidence in the Company's future profitability. On the contrary, the directors express confidence in the Company's ability to achieve sustained profits in the future. This decision aligns with a cautious approach, recognising the unpredictability inherent in business environments.
