The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

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.

Legal Claim

Nature of the Claim:
On 2 May 2024, RBW Sports & Classics Limited filed a legal claim against Continental Engineering Services Limited (formerly Zytek Automotive Limited). The claim relates to an alleged breach of contract and the failure to deliver services as agreed under a prior commercial agreement. RBW is seeking substantial monetary damages (in the multiple millions), along with specific performance and enforcement of contractual obligations.

Legal Opinion:
The legal proceedings are ongoing. The company has obtained legal advice indicating that it has a strong basis for the claim, and subsequent developments during the year have further strengthened RBW's legal position. While the outcome cannot be determined with certainty at this stage, the Directors consider the likelihood of a favourable result to be high.

As the timing and value of any potential recovery remain uncertain, no asset has been recognised in these financial statements. The company will continue to monitor the situation closely, and further disclosure or recognition will be made in future financial statements as appropriate, in line with applicable accounting standards.

12. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY

The company's immediate parent undertaking is RBW Sports and Classics Inc. a company registered in the USA.

The directors consider Messon Capital Constructive IV LP a company registered in the USA who own 60% of the share capital of RBW Sports and Classics Inc. to be the ultimate parent company and ultimate controlling party.
