Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2024

1.Accounting policies
Statutory information
The company is a private company limited by shares and registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling £
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102 Section 1A as it applies to the financial statements for the period and there were no material departures from the reporting standard. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention
Going concern
At the time of approving financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectations that the company has adequate 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.
Turnover policy
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding rebates, VAT and discounts and other sales tax for the services provided in the normal course of business
Revenue from rendering of services
Revenue represents amounts receivable for Production services and related activities, net of value added tax. Revenue from the provision of Production Services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the services at the balance sheet date when the outcome of the transaction can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion is assessed by comparing costs incurred to date with the estimated total costs of the contract. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the costs incurred that are expected to be recoverable.
Employee benefits
The company operates a defined contribution workplace pension scheme for employees. Contributions payable to the scheme are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss in the period to which they relate.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.
Current taxation
Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets as follows:
Trade and other debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services provided and are initially recognised at the transaction value. They are subsequently measured at the invoiced amount less any provision for expected credit losses, with the impairment charged to the profit or loss account, to reflect amounts that are likely to be irrecoverable. Impairment provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances and other short-term investments that can be quickly converted into cash with minimal risk of a change in value. These are held to meet short-term operational needs rather than investment purposes.
Trade and other creditors
Trade creditors are an obligation to pay suppliers for goods or services received in the normal course of business.
Financial instruments
The company holds only basic financial instruments, such as trade and other receivables, cash at bank and trade and other creditors. These are recognised at their transaction value on initial recognition and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

5.Provisions for liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
