| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| MetaZn Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The company's functional and presentation currency is £ Sterling. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to nearest £. |
| Related party exemption |
| The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents the fair value of consideration receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of business, excluding value-added tax (VAT), trade discounts, and returns. |
| Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have been transferred to the customer. |
| Turnover arising from the sourcing and supplying of zinc and related products is measured based on the agreed contract price with the customer, including any adjustments for price fluctuations, rebates, or other incentives. For long-term supply contracts, revenue is recognised when the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied, which is typically upon delivery or transfer of control. |
| Where sales are denominated in foreign currencies, turnover is translated into Sterling at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. The company monitors foreign currency exposure and use forward contracts to mitigate the risk of exchange rate fluctuations. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| Financial instruments |
| Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit. |
| The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transaction that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loan from banks and other third parties, loans to and from related parties and investments in ordinary shares. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| 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. |
| Foreign currencies |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| Going concern |
| The directors have not identified any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. |
| Impairment of tangible and intangible assets |
| Assets that are subject to depreciation or amortisation are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication that the assets are impaired. Where there is any indication that an assets may be impaired, the carrying value of the asset (or cash-generating unit to which the asset has been allocated) is tested for impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's (or CGU's) fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (CGUs). Non-financial assets that have been previously impaired are reviewed at each reporting date to assess whether there is any indication that the impairment losses recognised in prior period may no longer exist or may have decreased. |
| Debtors, creditors, provision for liabilities |
| Debtors: Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transactions costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. |
| Creditors: Short term creditors are measured at the transactions price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans are measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using effective interest method. |
| Provision for liabilities: Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Company a legal obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provision are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the balance sheet date of then expenditure to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties |
