| Report of the Directors |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2024. |
| PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY |
| The principal activity of the Company is the investment in property for the private rental sector. The company owns and manages 80 residential units which are let to tenants on shorthold assured tenancies. |
| DIRECTORS |
| The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2024 to the date of this report. |
| RESULTS AND DIVIDENDS |
| The profit for the period is £1,430,713 (2023 period: loss £304,320). The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend for the current or prior periods. |
| GOING CONCERN |
| The Company is part of a sub-group which has provided guarantees in respect of the third party debt provided to fund that sub-group. The Directors have reviewed the trading prospects and projected cash flows of both the business and the debt sub-group of which it forms part and as a result have a reasonable expectation that there are adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. |
| STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
| Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
| - | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
| - | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
| - | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
| The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
| This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. |

| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Sigma PRS Investments (Beam Park V&W) Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparation |
| The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 101 "Reduced Disclosure Framework": |
| • | the requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures; |
| • | the requirements of |
| - | paragraphs 1 to 44E, 44H(b)(ii) and 45 to 63 of IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows. |
| • | the requirements of paragraphs 17 and 18A of IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures; |
| • | the requirements in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures to disclose related party transactions entered into between two or more members of a group; |
| Turnover |
| Rental income from investment property is accounted for under an accruals basis. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Investment property |
| Investment property, including that which is being constructed for future use as investment property, is measured initially at its cost including related transaction costs. After initial recognition, investment property is carried at fair value. The investment properties are valued by CBRE (UK) Limited who are qualified valuation experts and hold a recognised and relevant professional qualification. The valuation basis of market value conforms to international valuation standards. The valuation is based on market evidence of investment yields, expected gross to net income rates and actual and expected rental values. Gains or losses arising from arising from changes in the fair value of the investment property are included in profit from operations in the income statement of the period in which they arise. |
| Financial instruments |
| Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Company’s statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
| The company uses derivatives financial instruments, specifically caps, to manage interest rate risk. The group does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivatives are recognised in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value on the date the transaction is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair values at year end. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. |
| Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risk and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires. |

| Notes to the Financial Statements - continued |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Taxation |
| Tax on the profit or loss for the period comprises current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years. |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all material timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at the date that will result in an obligation to pay more, or a right to pay less or to receive more tax with the following exceptions: |
| 1) The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that the Company anticipates making sufficient taxable profits in the future to absorb the reversal of the underlying timing differences. |
| 2) Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. |
| Fund exemption election Para 12(3) Sch5AAA TCGA 1992 |
| The company is exempt from UK corporation tax on chargeable gains by virtue of the 'Fund Exemption Election' under para 12(3) Sch 5AAA TCGA 1992 that London BTR Investments LP made effective from 29 July 2024 in relation to its 100% subsidiary London BTR Investments Ltd (and its subsidiaries - all of which are 100% owned). This treatment applies to London BTR Investments Ltd (and its subsidiaries - all of which are 100% owned) under "Exemption for direct or indirect disposals of UK land by persons in which fund invests" para 16 Sch 5AAA TCGA 1992 and is applicable from July 2024, immediately after the election was effective per para 17(4) Sch 5AAA TCGA 1992. |
| As a result of the exemption status noted above, from 29 July 2024, entities in the group that would otherwise recognise deferred tax on the difference between an investment property's balance sheet value for accounting purposes and the tax base cost of that asset do not recognise deferred tax on such items. In the current period, this has led to deferred tax credit of £1.3m recognised through the income statement which relates to the reversal of the opening deferred tax liabilities. |
| A review of the election's conditions was undertaken upon entry into the regime and the conditions are continually monitored to ensure that they are met. |
| Annual reporting to HMRC will be undertaken as required under the regime. |
| Impairment |
| When there is an indication of impairment, the company reviews the carrying value of its assets to determine whether those assets have suffered an impairment loss. The recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. Where it is not possible to determine the recoverable amount of an individual asset the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. |
| If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised as an expense immediately. |
| Where an impairment subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. |
| Finance income |
| Interest income from interest rate derivative hedges are accounted for on an accruals basis. |
| Going concern |
| The Company is part of a sub-group which has provided guarantees in respect of the third party debt provided to fund that sub-group. The Directors have reviewed the trading prospects and projected cash flows of both the business and the debt sub-group of which it forms part and as a result have a reasonable expectation that there are adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. |

| 3. | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATION |
| 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, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below: |
| Fair value of investment property |
| Investment properties are held at fair value, based on independent valuations provided by CBRE (UK) Limited, acting in the capacity of External Valuers as defined in the RICS Red Book. The valuation is based upon assumptions including future rental income, anticipated maintenance costs, future development costs and the appropriate discount rate. The valuers also make reference to market-based evidence of transaction prices for similar properties. |
| Derivative financial instruments valuation |
| Derivative financial instruments are held at fair value, based on independent Chatham Financial valuations, acting in the capacity of External Valuers. |
