FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Introduction
 
The directors present the strategic report for the 18 month period ended 31 December 2024.

Business review and future developments
Building a secure foundation for future growth
2024 was a significant year in the Group’s history, marking the 120th anniversary as well as the completion of a two-year change programme to place the business in the strongest possible position for its next centenary. 
Initiated in 2022, Project Rightsize involved a comprehensive strategic review to refocus the business and develop capabilities to form a robust platform for long-term success. The Group invested £1.7M to achieve its strategic goals.
Key outcomes of the change programme including:
 
New Board and leadership structure, aligned to company objectives.
Closure of the loss-leading venture into two-man furniture delivery services, including the exit of three operating sites.  
Consolidation of Group buildings from six sites to one wholly owned facility, and headcount reduction from 519 to circa 290.
Refocused sales, finance and operations functions and processes, enhancing efficiency, productivity, service, and financial position.
Investment of circa £1m in new ERP infrastructure development to integrate workflows, enable consolidated data and improve reporting. 
Appointment of a new transport and logistics partner, generating cost savings and supporting the Group’s CO2 reduction ambitions, 
Along with international licencing and manufacturing partners.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Even during this period of significant change and against a backdrop of macroeconomic uncertainty, the business continued to launch innovative new products and maintained strong commercial relationships with retail and hospitality key accounts, as well as with independent retailers. 
The Group’s unwavering commitment to excellence, sustainability, and the finest British craftsmanship was recognised with the granting of a Royal Warrant by His Majesty King Charles III, adding to a proud history of supplying the Royal Households for almost a century. 
The successful delivery of the change programme, coupled with the strength of the underlying business, is testament to the dedication of the Group’s skilled and committed people and the effectiveness of its empowered, ambitious, and engaged culture.
Looking ahead with confidence
Trading in the first 8 months of the 2025 financial year has been robust, with operating   profits exceeding those recorded over the preceding 18 months. The strong positive cash generation supporting is clear evidence of the business’s resilience and growth potential, which are supported by the new 5-year facility agreed in April 2025.
With firm foundations in place, the Board is confident that the Group is well positioned to achieve its strategic ambitions and deliver long-term, sustainable success.
With the strategic changes in the group, Hypnos Limited became the groups main operating business, manufacturing and purchasing goods for the rest of the group, supplying finished goods and services to both its own customers, and intercompany for Hypnos Contract Beds Limited. 
Hypnos Limited’s main focus remains the supply of consumer goods to the Retail market.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Board has overall responsibility for the management of risk and the identification of principal risks that may affect achievement of the company’s strategic objectives. Risk management is an integral part of decision-making, with risks and mitigations evaluated regularly. The principal risks identified by the company are outlined below. 
The company’s primary financial instruments are trade creditors, cash at bank, overdrafts and inter-company balances. These arise directly from the company’s trading activities and management have implemented procedures to monitor and control the liquidity and credit risks relating to the company’s financial affairs.
Through Project Rightsize, the company’s utilised its cash and cash equivalents to execute the accelerated change programme, funding short- term impact costs strategically over the reporting period. 
Credit risk
The company has a confidential invoice discounting facility, a specific credit insurance policy to cover credit risk, and a policy to actively review client credit scores.
Bad debts remain low, and credit control processes are reviewed regularly to ensure they are appropriate for the company’s risk appetite.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Cash flow risk
 
The company operates a detailed cash flow forecasting process and proactively seeks appropriate funding to support its ambitions. As the company has significantly reduced its fixed costs this risk here is considered to be as minimal. 
Price risk
The company is not significantly exposed to fluctuations in commodity prices, and the diversity of its supplier base would help minimise any potential impact.
Foreign exchange risk
The company does not use derivative financial instruments and instead relies on a natural hedge between receivables and payables in foreign currencies.

Financial key performance indicators
 
The directors use a variety of KPIs to assess company performance. The major measures are operational profitability, stock-turn ratio and revenue growth.
Statement by the directors in performance of their statutory duties in accordance with s172(1) of the Companies Act 2006
In accordance with section 172 of the Companies Act 2006, each director acts in a way they consider, in good faith, would most likely promote the success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole.
The Board ensures that all decisions are taken for the long term, and collectively and individually aims to always uphold the highest standard of conduct. Similarly, the Board acknowledges that the business can only grow and prosper over the long term if it understands and respects the views and needs of the company’s shareholders, customers, employees, suppliers and other stakeholders to whom it is accountable, as well as the environment in which the business operates.
The CEO, together with the Group Managing Director, sets the agenda for each Board meeting to ensure that requirements of section 172 are always met and considered through a combination of the following:
 
Board papers ensure that stakeholder factors are addressed, where relevant.
Health & Safety performance is always the first item on the agenda. Other standing agenda points include updates on operational and financial performance against objectives, including progress against budget and cash position.
At the time of undertaking the annual budgeting exercise, the Board considers the strategic direction of the business and how this fulfils the Group’s long-term objectives.
The Board recognises that its strategic decisions can have long-term implications for the business and its stakeholders, and these implications are assessed as a core part of the decision-making process.

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Employee engagement
 
Attraction and retention of skilled people are core to the success of the Group. Employee engagement is extremely important to the Board, and there are several workforce engagement mechanisms in place:
 
Employees are kept informed of performance, strategy and short-term outlook through regular news briefings and updates from members of the Board, including Town Hall presentations by the Group Managing Director to the whole company. 
Employee engagement surveys are undertaken, with results and proposed action plans shared with the Board.
The Workplace Council, made up of employees and hosted by a Board member, meets monthly provides a valuable source of insights and ideas. 
Pay rates and benefit structures are reviewed regularly to ensure every colleague receives fair pay.
Employee-related topics including staff welfare, workplace morale, succession planning and promoting diverse recruitment are regular agenda items at monthly main Board meetings. 
The group operates a Valuing Diversity and Dignity at Work Policy.
 
Having regard to the need to foster the company’s business relationships with suppliers, customers and others
Suppliers
The Board recognises the importance of fostering long-term, collaborative relationships with key suppliers to support the Group’s growth, innovation and sustainability, while balancing value for shareholders to ensure mutual benefit. 
The Group is proud to have pioneered new certifications and standards in the industry and supply chain including the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), which focuses on improved land management and animal welfare for British farms and farmers, and the Red Tractor assured farm standards. Hypnos has supported the Woolkeepers® initiative since 2019 to achieve these standards whilst providing British farmers a fair price for their wool. 2024 saw the RWS standard standard applied to 60 UK farms.   
The Group Managing Director and other members of the senior management team (SMT) work with suppliers on projects including New Product Development, implementing new standards, and sharing experience from key initiatives. Third party guidance is introduced as needed, for example from Planet Mark, to aid continuous development programmes to benefit product, service and sustainability goals. This work is reported on and reviewed at Board and SMT meetings. 
Customers
Customer obsession is one of the Group’s core values, alongside sustainable innovation, responsibility, and integrity. Customer and consumer sentiment is reflected in sales performance, which is reviewed regularly by the Board. Senior management also provides updates to the Board on their perceptions of customer sentiment and the market outlook. 
Customer interests are considered in strategic decision-making across key areas, including product portfolio changes, brand image and reputation, maintaining an innovative approach to sustainability, development of IT systems to facilitate doing business with the Group, and investment in marketing.

Credit facility providers and credit reference agencies
Alongside the Group Managing Director, the Group Finance Director is responsible for managing the relationships with banks and credit rating agencies, and for the Group’s cash, debt management and financing activities. The Group Finance Director provides regular reports to the Board on these activities, including plans to ensure appropriate access to debt capital and monitoring the headroom of credit facilities.
Having regard to the impact of the company’s operations on the community and the environment
Operating sustainably and responsibly is at the heart of the Group’s values and operations, evidenced by ISO 14001 certification and a proactive approach to reducing emissions. More information can be found in the Streamlined Energy and Carbon Report.
The Group’s 6-year relationship with the Eden Project has influenced multiple areas of the business including sourcing, and linking to local conservation and community.
In addition to encouraging   colleagues’ fundraising and volunteering initiatives, each year the Group supports selected national and local charity partners with monetary donations, volunteering and driving awareness. Beneficiaries have included Chiltern Rangers, The Furniture Makers’ Company benevolent fund, Pace Centre, and Youth Concern.
 
Energy efficiency actions 
During the reporting period, the Group implemented several initiatives with the objective of reducing energy and carbon emissions. These included:
 
Closure of Castle Donnington site and transfer of operations to Princes Risborough site. According to the ESOS assessment, this is expected to save 632,876 kWh of electricity and biomass energy yearly. 
Replacement of remaining fluorescent lighting with LED lamps and adding light sensors. This change is expected to save 25,085 kWh of electricity annually.
Transition of the heavy delivery fleet to Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) or electric saving up to 60%+ of related carbon annually.
Introduction of a Car Scheme Policy, mandating the use of electric and hybrid vehicles as company cars to reduce emissions from fleet and business travel where feasible.
 
Energy efficiency actions approach
The Group places great importance on managing its environmental impact and reducing emissions. The business has been carbon-neutral since 2011, in compliance with PAS 2060 guidance, and holds ISO 14001 certification. 
2024 saw the Group integrate responsibility for sustainability and the environment not into a single role but across its leadership structure, from the Board to the Senior Management Team, to achieve goals across the entire operation and up stream with partners and via supplier selection. The company’s’ core objective is to drive continuous improvement across its operations and to lead the industry in quality, sustainability, and integrity. Recent consolidation of its operations has streamlined processes and accelerated its net zero agenda. 
Product innovation
Over recent years, the product portfolio has been enhanced to prioritise sustainability. This includes increased use of natural, organic, and plant-based fibres. All Hypnos mattresses are foam-free, and are moving to glue-free pocket spring systems utilising alternative bonding techniques that are fully recyclable. The Group is also launching a plant-based Hospitality  mattress collection created in collaboration with the Eden Project.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HYPNOS LIMITED
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Hypnos Limited (the 'Company') for the period ended 31 December 2024, which comprise the Statement of comprehensive income, the Statement of financial position, the Statement of changes in equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).


In our opinion the financial statements:


give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its profit for the period then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.


Basis for opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.


Conclusions relating to going concern


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.


Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.


Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information


The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual ReportOur opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.


We have nothing to report in this regard.


Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:


the information given in the Strategic report and the Directors' report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Strategic report and the Directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic report or the Directors' report.


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:


adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HYPNOS LIMITED (CONTINUED)


Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement set out on page 7, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.


In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements 
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with law and regulations, was as follows:
 
The engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
We identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussion with directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the relevant sector;
The specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company, are as follows:
I.Companies Act 2006.
II.FRS 102.
III.Tax legislation.
IV.Employment legislation.
V.Health and safety legislation.
 
We assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and reviewing supporting evidence where applicable; and
Laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team at the planning meeting, and during the audit as any further laws and regulation were identified. The audit team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HYPNOS LIMITED (CONTINUED)


 

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur by:

Making enquiries of management as to where they consider there was susceptibility to fraud and their knowledge of actual suspected and alleged fraud;
Considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations;
Reviewing the financial statements and testing the disclosures against supporting documentation;
Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected trends or anomalies;
Inspecting and testing journal entries to identify unusual or unexpected transactions;
Assessing whether judgement and assumptions made in determining significant accounting estimates, were indicative of management bias; and
Investigating the rationale behind significant transactions, or transactions that are unusual or outside the company’s usual course of business.
 
The areas that we identified as being susceptible to misstatement through fraud were:
 
Management bias in the estimates and judgements made;
Management override of controls; and
Posting of unusual journals or transactions.


Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.


A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

1.


General information

Hypnos Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is 1 Longwick Road, Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire, HP27 9RT.
The company specialises in manufacturing beds and furniture.  

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

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 Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The company maintains its accounting records on a weekly basis. However, the Company has elected to extend the year end to 31 December 2024 therefore forming an 18 month period.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d);
the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.

This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Keen & Toms Holdings Limited as at 31 December 2024 and these financial statements may be obtained from Longwick Road, Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire, HP27 9RT.

 
2.3

Going concern

The directors note that the company is trading adequately and has sufficient working capital and other finance available to continue trading for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of signing of financial statements. As such, the directors believe that there are no significant uncertainties in their assessment of whether the business is a going concern and therefore have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Revenue

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
The Company has contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or           services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company adjusts the transaction prices of these contracts for the time value of money.

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised on the satisfaction of performance obligations, such as   the transfer of a promised good, identified in the contract between the Company and the customer.
A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the    consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is        due.

Rendering of services

Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.
For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of        the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided because the customer         receives and uses the benefits simultaneously.

 
2.5

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Plant and machinery
-
7 years straight line
Fixtures and fittings
-
7 years straight line
IT equipment
-
5-9 years straight line
Other fixed assets
-
4 years straight line

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Work in progress and finished goods include labour and attributable overheads.

At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of comprehensive income.

 
2.7

Debtors

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.

 
2.8

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.

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.9

Financial instruments

Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans
and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash
flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that
are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost, unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company, or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of
financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other
third parties, and loans to and from related parties.
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each
reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference
between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the
asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the
contract.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the
difference between an asset's carrying amount and best estimate of the recoverable amount, which is an approximation of the amount that the Company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of financial
position when there is an 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.


 
2.10

Creditors

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.11

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 comprehensive income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

 
2.12

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income 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.

 
2.13

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in the Statement of comprehensive income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

 
2.14

Operating leases: the Company as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.15

Leased assets: the Company as lessee

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Statement of comprehensive income so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

 
2.16

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed 10 years.
Development expenditure is amortised over 5 years once the asset is ready for use.

 
2.17

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest method.

  
2.18

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Company a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to the Statement of comprehensive income in the period that the Company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the statement of financial position date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.
When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Statement of financial position.

 
2.19

Borrowing costs

All borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred.

 
2.20

Exceptional items

Exceptional items are transactions that fall within the ordinary activities of the Company but are presented separately due to their size or incidence.
