The comparative period is for 11 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.

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.

The company has made a loss of £1,500,315 for the year ended 31 December 2024 (“FY2024”) (FY2023: loss of £580,341) and has net liabilities as at the year end of £2,080,655 (FY2023: net liabilities of £580,340).

The company was formed during the prior year and as at the end of FY2024 was still in its growth phase with the customer loan book growing. As at the end of FY2024, the company still had undeployed borrowed funds, the cost of which has largely driven the loss in the year and which has resulted in the net liabilities position for FY2024.

Management has performed a detailed going concern assessment, including a review of the loan book trajectory to full capacity; financial impact of potential credit loss, consideration of the principal and emerging risks such as changes in rates of inflation, geo-political influences and other macro-economic influences. Such factors have been taken into consideration when preparing and reviewing the cash flow projections.

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.

Based on the above, the directors have reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements are authorised for issuance. Thus, the directors have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

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.

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks,

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, 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.

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.

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, 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.

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.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

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.

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

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.
