Company information

Bizcap Limited (Formerly Finbiz Funding Limited) is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Suite 1, 7th Floor, 50 Broadway, London, SW1H 0DB. The principal place of business is 6th Floor, 16 New Burlington Place, London, W1S 2HX.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 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 financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors are confident, following a review of the company's projections over the next twelve months that the company has sufficient resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.true

1.3
Turnover

T urnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of services provided during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax.

Loans to SMEs

The company facilitates merchant loan facilities, funded by syndicators, to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and earns commission income and administrative fees. These are recognised as income over the term of the relevant loans.

Agency Arrangements

The company acts as an agent in administering merchant loans funded by syndicators, who bear the full economic risk and the syndicates receive all interest income. The interest which is collected from merchants and passed to the syndicates is not reflected in the profit and loss account.

Although the company does not retain interest income and accept credit risk, it controls the deployment and collection of loans to small and medium sized enterprises. Accordingly, the loans to small and medium sized enterprises and amount due to syndicators are presented on a gross basis in the balance sheet to reflect the custodial nature of the arrangement.

1.4
Tangible fixed assets

The company’s policy is to capitalise expenditure on fixed assets where the individual cost of the item exceeds £5,000 and the asset has an expected useful life of more than one year.

Expenditure on fixed assets below this threshold is considered immaterial and is therefore charged directly to the profit and loss account in the year of acquisition.

This policy is applied consistently across all classes of tangible fixed assets and is reviewed annually to ensure that the capitalisation threshold remains appropriate in the context of the company’s size and operations.

1.5
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.6
Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.

Write-Off

Loans to SME s are written off when they are deemed non-collectable. Subsequent recoveries from legal enforcement relating to an amount previously written-off are set off against the i mpairment and amount due to syndicators in the Balance sheet. A s mentioned in note 1.3 the company does not bear the risk of default so such write offs reduce loans to SMEs and amount due to syndicators.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Financial liabilities that meet the definition of basic financial instruments under FRS 102 are initially recognised at the transaction price, including any transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issue of the financial liability.

Subsequently, basic financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Under this method, interest expense is recognised in profit or loss over the life of the liability by applying the effective interest rate to the carrying amount of the liability. This approach allocates interest expense and any directly attributable transaction costs over the expected term of the liability, resulting in a consistent yield.

O riginal Issue Discount funds (Syndicat or funds)

Original Issue Discount funds received by the company, from Syndicators, are classified as basic financial liabilities under FRS 102. These funds are initially recognised at the amount received, net of any transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

The effective interest rate incorporates any fees, premiums, or discounts that are an integral part of the funding arrangement and spreads them over the expected term of the fund.

The carrying value of the Syndicator funds are reviewed at each reporting date to ensure it reflects the amortised cost.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Other financial liabilities

Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are s ubsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, unless hedge accounting is applied and the hedge is a cash flow hedge.

Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. Debt instruments may be designated as being measured at fair value th r ough profit or loss to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch or if the instruments are measured and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.

1.7
Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

1.8
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes 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 reporting end date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

1.9
Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.10
Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.11
Leases
As lessee

Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the lease s asset are consumed.

2
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions that are likely to affect the current or future financial years.

Loans to small and medium sized enterprises are classified as basic financial instruments and are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. All loans have contractual terms of less than 12 months, with typical durations of an average of 6 months. The portfolio comprises a mixture of secured and unsecured loans. Interest rates are fixed at the point of origination and remain unchanged for the duration of each loan. The amounts represent balances outstanding at the reporting date.

Loans are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The credit risk transfer arrangement is considered in the company’s assessment of financial instrument classification and impairment under FRS 102 Section 11.

The OID fund providers (“syndicators”) assume full economic responsibility for borrower defaults. Consequently, the company does not recognise credit loss provisions for these loans.

Amounts due to syndicators represent the principal funding received, together with interest earned on loans advanced to SMEs, net of associated costs and fees, under syndicated Original Issue Discount (OID) loan facilities. These liabilities are classified as basic financial instruments and are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, in accordance with Section 11 of FRS 102

Deferred revenue represents interest, administrative, and establishment fees that relate to future periods. Administrative, and establishment fees will be recognised as income after the year end and interest income will be netted off with interest expense as mentioned in the accounting policy Note 1.3.

The total amount due to syndicators is £35,072,599, net of loans due from small and medium-sized enterprises of £25,284,727 resulting in a net payable to syndicators of £9,787,972.

Events after the reporting date

Since the balance sheet date, the company has entered into a new lease agreement for office premises, commencing in January 2025. The lease has a term of 10 years with fixed annual lease payments of £703,350.

As the lease was entered into after the year end, it is considered a non-adjusting post balance sheet event, and no adjustments have been made to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

The financial impact of the lease will be recognised in the financial statements for future periods, starting from the lease commencement date.
