Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Immedia Broadcast Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 03873102 . The registered office is 7-9 The Broadway, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 1AS.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements have been prepared under historical cost convention.
2.2. Going Concern Disclosure
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.
2.3. Turnover
Turnover represents the amounts receivable by the Company for the provision of its goods and services, excluding value added tax. Turnover from services comprises the broadcasting of live and as live radio programmes to customers' premises using appropriate technologies, together with the production of advertising content for use in those programmes. Turnover from these services is billed on time-based subscriptions and recognised as the performance obligation is fulfilled. Additionally, the creation of digital web and app designs , digital solutions for audio visual content, 3D, virtual reality and augmented reality content are all included in the services. Turnover from these services is billed and recognised on completion as that is when the performance obligation is met.
Turnover from equipment sales which includes delivery and configuration over time; turnover from content delivery and equipment maintenance services and hire services is billed on time-based subscriptions is recognised monthly on completion when the performance obligation is met.
To the extent that invoices are raised to a different pattern than revenue recognition described above, appropriate adjustments are made through contract assets and contract liabilities to account for turnover when the underlying service has been performed or goods have transferred to the customer.
2.4. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of unincorporated businesses over the fair value of net assets acquired. It is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is considered to have a finite useful life and is amortised on a systematic basis over its expected life.
Negative goodwill, which arises from a bargain purchase credit, is amortised in proportion to the lives of the intangible assets acquired.
2.5. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Other Intangible
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.
Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Proprietary software 5 years
Brand 10 years
Content delivery 3 years
Customer contracts 3 to 4 years
Page 3
Page 4
2.6. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Leasehold over the length of the property lease
Plant & Machinery 3 to 7 years
Fixtures & Fittings 3 to 10 years
Computer Equipment 3 to 5 years, or contract term if shorter
Any gain or loss arising from the disposal of tangible fixed assets is recognized in the profit and loss account.
2.7. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks include audio, screen and content delivery equipment and are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. In determining the cost of raw materials, consumables and goods purchased for resale, the historical purchase price is used. For work in progress and finished goods, cost is taken as production cost which includes an appropriate proportion of attributable overheads.
At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.
2.8. Financial Instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs.
Classification of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.9. Foreign Currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit. 
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction. 
2.10. Pensions
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2.11. Fixed asset investments
Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

2.12. Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
2.13. Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.
