Soul Propco 3 Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 14 Bedford Square, London, United Kingdom, WC1B 3JA.
The company was incorporated on 30 March 2023 and this is the first trading period.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.
When cash inflows are deferred and represent a financing arrangement, the fair value of the consideration is the present value of the future receipts. The difference between the fair value of the consideration and the nominal amount received is recognised as interest income.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods), the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Investment property is initially recognised at purchase cost, including directly attributable acquisition expenses. It is subsequently measured at fair value, except for investment property under construction or redevelopment at the balance sheet date, which is held at cost until construction or redevelopment is complete.
The fair value of investment property reflects, among other things, rental income from current leases, assumptions about rental income from future leases in light of current market conditions and consideration of the return on development work.
Subsequent expenditure is added to the assets carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the profit and loss account during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Any movement in the fair value of the properties is reflected within the profit and loss account for the year.
A gain or loss arising on the disposal of investment properties is determined as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying value of the asset at the beginning of the period and is recognised in the profit and loss account.
Basic financial assets, which include debtors, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
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, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
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.
Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was:
On 7 October 2024 the company acquired an investment property. Additions reflect the cost of the property as well as directly attributable costs of development work in the period to 31 December 2024. The directors consider the carrying value of £12,770,058 for the investment property to accurately reflect the value of the property at the balance sheet date. At the balance sheet date the property was in development stage.
In the prior year a balance of £814,150 was included in other debtors. This consisted of costs incurred in relation to the investment property which was acquired on 7 October 2024. This balance has now been reclassified and capitalised at the point of the investment property's acquisition.
