Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| Ansteys Of Worcester 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 as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

| Going concern

| The balance sheet of the company shows net current liabilities of £2,561,875 (2024 - £368,194). Included within the creditors is a bank loan of £2,023,894 which is due for repayment in March 2026. Included within other creditors are £482,802 (2024 - £352,957) of funds owed to a business controlled by the directors which are repayable on demand, but only if cash flows allow. The directors have agreed not to withdraw these funds or their loan accounts to the disadvantage of other stakeholders. The directors are actively seeking opportunities to dispose of low yielding assets to make debt repayments and therefore are confident that the company will operate profitably in future periods.

| On this basis the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

| Changes in accounting policies

| Previously Freehold Property was held at cost. This year the directors have decided to adopt an annual market value accounting policy.

| Turnover

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

| Tangible fixed assets

| No depreciation is provided on freehold property.

| The freehold property is shown at most recent valuation. The surplus arising from the change in fair value is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income.

| The valuation of the freehold property was provided by Carter Jonas on 9 October 2024.

| Investment property

| Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

| The valuation of the investment property was provided by Carter Jonas on 9 October 2024.

| Stocks

| Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

| Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out method and includes all purchase, transport, and handling costs in bringing stocks to their present location and condition.

| The company has the following biological assets within stock which are valued as follows:

| Crops in store - valued at their estimated cost with reference to current market values.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

| Taxation

| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, 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.

3. | EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

| The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2024 - NIL).
