Members' Report
The members present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Qualifying Third-party and Pension Scheme Indemnity Provision
All members are entitled to contractual indemnification from the LLP to the extent permitted by law against claims and legal expenses incurred in the courses of their duties. Such qualifying third party indemnity insurance is provided and remains in force as at the date of approving the Member's Report.
Going concern
After thorough evaluation of future developments and revenue projections for CEPA, the Members firmly affirm its status as a going concern. The financial statements are crafted under this premise, reflecting a robust belief in CEPA's ability to maintain adequate resources to meet its ongoing obligations and regulatory requirements for a minimum of 12 months from the statutory account signing date. This conviction is underpinned by the current cash reserves of CEPA and the anticipated inflow of future revenue streams. The members' assessment of CEPA's going concern status also encompassed a diligent examination of the impact of any regulatory changes in the UK and EU along with the current conflicts in Europe and Middle East.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
CEPA LLP is a limited liability partnership, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number OC326074 . The Registered Office is Queens House, 55-56 Lincoln's Inn Fields, London, WC2A 3LJ.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 for small limited liability partnerships regime - The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), The Statement of Recommended Practice 'Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships' issued in December 2021 (SORP) and the Companies Act 2006 (as applied to LLPs).
2.2. Significant judgements and estimations
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with FRS 102 1A requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company's accounting policies.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Work in progress in respect of revenue recognition is based on judgements made in respect of the ultimate profitability of a contract. Such judgements are arrived at through the use of estimates in relation to the costs and value of work performed to date and to be performed in bringing contracts to completion. The LLP has appropriate procedures to ensure all estimates are determined on a consistent basis and subject to appropriate review and authorisation.
2.3. Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Rendering of services
Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.
46% of the LLP's turnover (2024 - 29%) is attributable to geographical markets outside the United Kingdom.
2.4. 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:
Motor Vehicles Straight line 8%

Page 5
2.5. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Assets obtained under finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the LLP. Obligations under such agreements are included in the creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss account so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.
Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred.
2.6. Foreign Currencies
Monetary 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 ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit. 
The financial statements are prepared in Great British Pound (£), which is the LLP's functional and reporting currency. 
2.7. Pensions
The LLP operates a defined pension contribution scheme. Contributions are charged to the Profit and Loss Account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
