NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
CSL Group Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered office address is Suite 3, Ground Floor Corum Two, Corum Office Park, Crown Way, Warmley, Bristol, England, BS30 8FJ.
CSL Group Limited principal activity is of a holding company.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 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 preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due.
As at 31 December 2024, the company had made investments in its overseas subsidiaries amounting to £4,000,000. The director has undertaken an impairment review as at that date and concluded that no impairment is necessary.
CSL Global Limited has provided funding to the company in the form of a loan totalling £3,173,118 to support overseas acquisitions. The timing of recovery of this loan is uncertain and is dependent on the future profitability of the group.
The company is also reliant on the continuing support of its shareholders. As at 31 December 2024, shareholder loans totalled £1,184,437. The directors have received assurances from the shareholders that these loans will not be called for repayment in the foreseeable future. These assurances are expected to remain in place until such time as the net asset position of the company and its subsidiaries is fully positive.
In forming the view that the going concern basis is appropriate, the directors have considered all relevant information, including the company’s annual budget, forecast future cash flows, and the impact of any known subsequent events. Based on this assessment and the financial support available, the directors are satisfied that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and no material uncertainty has been identified.

Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements
These financial statements present information about CSL Group Limited as an individual entity and do not include consolidated financial information. The company is the parent of a group but has elected to take the exemption under Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 from preparing consolidated financial statements.

Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
|
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
|
|
Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
The value of the investment in the subsidiary held by the directors is inherently subjective and has not been tested against an active commercial market. As such, the financial statements do not include any adjustments or provisions that might be necessary if the carrying value of this investment were not ultimately realised.
|
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 2 (2023 - 1).
