| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Aglaris Limited is a |
| 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. |
| The company was awarded a large contract in 2023 and the final funds relating to this project are expected to be received towards the end of 2025. In addition, the company has secured some additional funding since the balance sheet date. However, a condition of receiving part of this funding is that another third party commits to provide additional funding as well. The company is in discussions to secure this additional funding and is also in discussions with various potential customers in respect of additional projects over the next 12 months. |
| At the date of signing these financial statements, there is uncertainty as to whether additional funding or projects may be received. |
| However, the directors believe that they are likely to be able to raise the additional funding required and therefore are of the opinion that the going concern basis is appropriate. |
| Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
| The financial statements contain information about Aglaris Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
| 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. |
| Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| With regard to the accounting policies adopted by the company, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Such estimates are based on historical experience and other relevant factors and may differ from actual results. All estimates, and associated underlying assumptions, are reviewed on an ongoing basis. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sale taxes. Turnover is recognised on completion of the service. |
| 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. |
| Development costs once complete will be amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of 5 years. Development costs are not yet complete. |
| Patent costs are recognised at cost and once their application has been accepted they will be amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of 5 years. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost net of depreciation and any impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
| Fixtures and fittings | - 10% on cost |
| IT & computer equipment | - 25% on cost |
| Laboratory equipment | - 25% on cost |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost less impairment. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| 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. |
| Research and development |
| The company recognises Research and Development Tax Credits with HMRC on the receipts basis. |
| Foreign currencies |
| 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 of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Financial instruments |
| Basic Financial Instruments as covered by Section 11 of FRS 102 are measured at amortised cost. Financial instruments as covered by Section 12 of FRS102 relating to convertible loans are shown in other reserves. |

| We would like to draw your attention to the following statement contained within our audit report as included within the full financial statements:- |
| "Material uncertainty related to going concern |
| We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates the company requires additional funding and/or new projects to continue as a going concern. There is uncertainty as to whether this will be received. |
| This indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. |
| 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. |
| Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report." |
| We would also like to draw your attention to the following statement contained within our audit report as included within the full financial statements:- |
