NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
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:
Rendering of services
Revenue from a grant to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
∙the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
∙it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the grant;
∙the stage of completion of the grant at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
∙the costs incurred and the costs to complete the grant can be measured reliably.
Turnover/Income
Turnover also consists of project income, to mean grants, donations, or subsidies intended for use towards; i) either a specific Climate 2025 programme or project (for example, capacity building, access to funding, ecosystem building work etc. including some elements of contribution towards administrative and operating expenses of managing projects and programmes); or ii) grants available to be used by Climate 2025 for essential running costs more broadly; or iii) the proceeds Climate 2025 generates from transaction fees, service fees and investment activities. Turnover also consists of project income, to mean grants restricted to the deliver of a specific project or defined set of activities, sometime including a percentage contribution towards general running costs.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss 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.
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 profit or loss 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.
