Accounting policies
Company information
Neptune Funding Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is C/O TMF Group, 13th Floor, 1 Angel Court, London, United Kingdom, EC2R 7HJ.
1.1
Reporting period
The comparative period is for 3 months to 31 December 2023, therefore the amounts presented in the financial statements and notes are not entirely comparable. The current accounting year is for 12 months to 31 December 2024, which is the company's year end.
1.2
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. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.3
Prior period error
The financial statements include a prior period adjustment correcting a previous error in revenue recognition in respect of loan interest receivable:
1.4
Going concern
The company has made a loss of £171,537 for the year ended 31 December 2024 (“FY2024”) (FY2023: loss of £1,230,601) and has net liabilities as at the year end of £1,402,137 (FY2023: net liabilities of £1,230,600).
During the post balance sheet period the company completed a strategic review of the operating activities including preparation of a forecast for the period to 30 September 2026 to support the going concern position. This resulted in a portion of the loan book being sold at net book value, with a proportionate repayment to note holders. This transaction resulted in nil profit or loss. See Note 7 to the financial statements.
The forecast takes in to consideration the portion of the loan book sold and also considers key assumptions including potential credit loss, changes in rates of inflation, geo-political influences and other macro-economic influences.
The forecast shows both profits being generated and positive cash flows in the period, and an overall positive retained earning position as at 30 September 2026.
On the basis of the above assessment, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements and have adequate resources to continue to meet contractual obligations as they fall due. As such, the directors have concluded it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

1.5
Turnover
Turnover represents interest receivable on loans advanced to customers. The turnover of the company is not subject to VAT.
Interest receivable is recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate (EIR) is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the expected life, or contractual term if shorter, of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the EIR, the company estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instruments, but does not include an expectation for future credit losses.
1.6
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks.
1.7
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 only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

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 loan notes that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Other financial liabilities
Derivatives, including interest rate swaps, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently 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.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.8
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.
1.9
Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable.
Current tax
Under the powers conferred by the Finance Act 2005, secondary legislation was enacted in 2006 which ensures that, subject to certain conditions being met, for periods commencing on or after 1 January 2007, corporation tax for a 'securitisation company' will be calculated by reference to the profit of the securitisation company required to be retained in accordance with the relevant capital market arrangement. For UK corporation tax purposes, the Company has been considered as a Securitisation Company under the Taxation of Securitisation Companies Regulations 2006 (SI 2006/3296) (“the 2006 Regulations)". Therefore, the Company is not required to pay corporation tax on its accounting profit or loss. Instead, the Company is required to pay tax on its retained profits as specified in the transaction documents and as defined by the 2006 Regulations. The retained profit for financial year ended 31 December 2024 is set at £1,000 under the terms of the securitisation documentation.
