Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 30 November 2024

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Sale of goods: Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point that the customer has signed for the delivery of the goods. Rendering of services: Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.

    Other accounting policies

    Taxation: Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the ycar. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilitics and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Current or deferred tax for the year is recognised in profit or loss, except when they related to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Company activities and impact

Project Osiris was established with a clear mission: to pioneer technological and ecological innovation in service of environmental regeneration and community empowerment. While the company has remained relatively low-activity during the reported financial year due to the founder’s focus on launching its sister initiative, Ecosyn, Project Osiris has continued to serve as the philosophical and structural backbone for early-stage developments aimed at transforming UK-Wide ecological practice through open-access tools and nature-aligned intelligence. Despite minimal trading activity, the company has overseen several impactful research and development projects during the reporting period. These include: ForesterTools An open-source QGIS plugin designed to streamline the mapping, analysis, and management of commercial and native woodland assets. Originally developed under Project Osiris, the tool has now been released and maintained under Ecosyn, where it has gained a user base of 48 active professionals. Although the initial launch was postponed due to personal hardship, the tool is now fully operational and undergoing iterative expansion. ForesterTools offers free access to vital digital infrastructure for ecological consultants, forestry firms, and community woodland groups. By making advanced GIS tools freely available, ForesterTools is democratizing access to digital forestry intelligence, lowering entry barriers for small consultancies and volunteers engaged in woodland restoration and management. Branch Alexandria This initiative addresses a long-standing knowledge gap: the lack of common-name references within the UK’s National Vegetation Classification (NVC) floristic tables. Through intelligent web-scraping and public database linking, Branch Alexandria is being developed as an automated translator of scientific nomenclature for habitat surveyors and amateur ecologists alike. Branch Alexandria is merging with AI-driven Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) systems to enable natural-language querying of NVC data and species lists. This project is designed to radically increase accessibility to botanical knowledge, allowing anyone to engage with complex ecological data in plain English, breaking down the barrier between expertise and empowerment. Mobile Survey & Report Automation In partnership with land agents and ecological practitioners, Project Osiris has prototyped a mobile survey-to-report pipeline using MerginMaps, QGIS automation, and structured templates. These tools allow for the near-instant generation of habitat assessments and woodland evaluations directly from the field. While still in early-stage development, the results have already informed pilot collaborations with the Alliance for Scotland’s Rainforest, helping to digitize and accelerate rainforest restoration strategies. Community Impact: This approach promises to reduce the administrative burden on ecologists and arborists, giving them more time in the field while producing higher-quality, data-driven reports for landowners and stakeholders engaged in conservation.

Consultation with stakeholders

Project Osiris CIC considers all members of the ecology & forestry sector as stakeholders - from administration through to in-field workers. Ongoing LinkedIn posts and one-to-one meetings with clients are used to gauge community interest via content marketing. The feedback provided from members of the public is used to guide future project development.
