| 1. | COMPANY INFORMATION |
| SER Real Estate Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Hunters Hall Farm, Epping Upland, Epping, Essex, CM16 6PL. |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| 2.1 Reporting period |
| The period end was shortened to 31 December 2024, representing an 9 months period, to bring the period end date inline with the group entities. The comparative amounts presented in the financial statements (including the relevant notes) are therefore not entirely comparable as they cover a 12 months period. |
| 2.2 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 amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. |
| The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of investment properties at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. |
| 2.3 Going concern |
| The company currently has a net liability position of £19,559 and made a loss of £19,560 during the period ended 31 December 2024. |
| The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis on the assumption that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, the validity of which depends upon on the ongoing support of the parent company SER Holdings Limited and related group entity SER Contractor Limited. |
| SER Holdings Limited and related group entity SER Contractor Limited have provided the company with a letter of support indicating that it will not seek repayment of its outstanding intercompany balance totalling £2,507,748 to the company to the detriment of other creditors in the 12 months following the formal approval of these financial statements. In addition, SER Holdings Limited and related group entity SER Contractor Limited have also confirmed that if the trading forecasts are not achieved, they will provide sufficient additional financial support in order for the Company to meet its obligation towards creditors and carry on trading for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of its financial statements. The financial statements include no adjustment that might otherwise be necessary if that support were not forthcoming. |

| 2.4 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| In the application of the company's accounting policies, the director is 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. |
| Key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows. |
| Fair value of investment properties |
| The cost of investment property requires management judgement to capture identifiable costs that are directly attributable to the purchase of the property which should be added to the cost of the property and to identify costs that should be charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. |
| The fair value of investment property requires management to estimate the price at which the property could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction. The estimated selling price is reviewed by management with reference to independent external valuation where appropriate. |
| 2.5 Turnover |
| Turnover represents revenue recognised by the company in respect of rents receivable. |
| Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the rents received or receivable based on the rent agreements and to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and it can be reliably measured. |
| 2.6 Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: |
| Plant and equipment 10% Straight line |
| The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss. |
| The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The effect of any change is accounted for prospectively. |
| 2.7 Investment property |
| Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. |
| The fair value is determined by the directors with the benefit of professional external valuers and derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any differences in the nature or location of the specified asset. |

| 2.8 Financial instruments |
| The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' 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. |
| 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 |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |
| 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. |
