Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31st December 2024


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Robert Bolt Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Turnover comprises revenue receivable by the Company in respect of royalties and advances receivable from the exploitation of intellectual property in connection with rights, titles and interest held by the Company in literary estates, exclusive of Value Added Tax.

Revenue in respect of royalties and advances receivable is recognised as and when the Company receives notification of amounts due, during the reporting period, with amounts accrued and/or deferred where applicable in accordance with the terms of the underlying contract.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Patents and licences are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of nil years.

Financial instruments
The Company held no financial instruments that would require specific disclosure under sections 1.12, 11 or 12 of Financial Reporting Standard 102 or paragraph 36 of Schedule 1 to the Companies Act 2006.

The total interest income/(expenditure) in respect of financial liabilities not held at fair value through profit or loss (i.e. re-measured to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date with any financial movement recognised immediately in profit or loss) was £(156) (2022: £12).

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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 balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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.

Functional and presentational currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the "functional currency").

The functional currency of the Company, and the currency in which the financial statements are presented (the "presentational currency"), is 'Pounds Sterling' (£) rounded to the nearest single unit of currency.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2023 - NIL).
