Caseware UK (AP4) 2023.0.135 2023.0.135 The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Deferred tax assets and liabilities A deferred tax liability is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). A deferred tax asset is recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. A deferred tax asset is not recognised when it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). A deferred tax asset is recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current and deferred taxes are recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from: • a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, to other comprehensive income, or • a business combination. Current tax and deferred taxes are charged or credited to other comprehensive income if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, to other comprehensive income. Current tax and deferred taxes are charged or credited directly to equity if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, directly in equity.true2truetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetruetrue2024-07-01falseNo description of principal activity2true 13775428 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 2023-07-01 2024-06-30 13775428 2025-06-30 13775428 2024-06-30 13775428 2023-07-01 13775428 1 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:Director1 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Buildings c:LongLeaseholdAssets 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Buildings c:LongLeaseholdAssets 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Buildings c:LongLeaseholdAssets 2024-06-30 13775428 c:LandBuildings 2025-06-30 13775428 c:LandBuildings 2024-06-30 13775428 c:FreeholdInvestmentProperty 2025-06-30 13775428 c:FreeholdInvestmentProperty 2024-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments 2025-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments 2024-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 2024-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 3 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments 3 2024-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments c:WithinOneYear 2025-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments c:WithinOneYear 2024-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments c:AfterOneYear 2025-06-30 13775428 c:Non-currentFinancialInstruments c:AfterOneYear 2024-06-30 13775428 c:ShareCapital 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 c:ShareCapital 2025-06-30 13775428 c:ShareCapital 2023-07-01 2024-06-30 13775428 c:ShareCapital 2024-06-30 13775428 c:ShareCapital 2023-07-01 13775428 c:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 c:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2025-06-30 13775428 c:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2023-07-01 2024-06-30 13775428 c:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2024-06-30 13775428 c:RetainedEarningsAccumulatedLosses 2023-07-01 13775428 c:AcceleratedTaxDepreciationDeferredTax 2025-06-30 13775428 c:AcceleratedTaxDepreciationDeferredTax 2024-06-30 13775428 c:TaxLossesCarry-forwardsDeferredTax 2025-06-30 13775428 c:TaxLossesCarry-forwardsDeferredTax 2024-06-30 13775428 d:OrdinaryShareClass1 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:OrdinaryShareClass1 2025-06-30 13775428 d:OrdinaryShareClass1 2024-06-30 13775428 d:FRS101 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:Audited 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:FullAccounts 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:PrivateLimitedCompanyLtd 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 d:SmallCompaniesRegimeForAccounts 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 15 2024-07-01 2025-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments 7 2025-06-30 13775428 c:CurrentFinancialInstruments 7 2024-06-30 13775428 c:WithinOneYear 2025-06-30 13775428 c:WithinOneYear 2024-06-30 13775428 c:MoreThanFiveYears 2025-06-30 13775428 c:MoreThanFiveYears 2024-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenOneTwoYears 2025-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenOneTwoYears 2024-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenTwoThreeYears 2025-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenTwoThreeYears 2024-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenThreeFourYears 2025-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenThreeFourYears 2024-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenFourFiveYears 2025-06-30 13775428 c:BetweenFourFiveYears 2024-06-30 iso4217:GBP xbrli:shares xbrli:pure

General information

Bidvest Properties UK Limited is a Private company, limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in England & Wales with the registered office in 809 Salisbury House, 29 Finsbury Circus, London, EC2M 7AQ. The principal activity of the company during the year has been the letting and operating of own or leased real estate. 

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 101 'Reduced Disclosure Framework'  and the Companies Act 2006. 
The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 101 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies.

The company’s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the directors report. 
In evaluating the going concern status of the company, the Directors have taken into account the amounts owed to The Bidvest Group (UK) Plc, repayable in September 2026. A letter of support has been obtained from the parent, confirming its intention to provide financial support as required to enable the company to meet its obligations as they fall due. In addition, the parent will not seek repayment of the loan unless adequate alternative financing has been secured. 
In considering the ability and intent of its parent to provide continued support, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year and all the periods presented:

New standards, amendments and IFRIC interpretations
There are no new IFRS accounting standards, no amendments to accounting standards, or IFRIC interpretations that are effective for the year ended 30 June 2025 that are applicable to the Company or have had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
The company has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for its annual reporting period commencing 1 July 2024:
- International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules – amendments to IAS 12.
The amendments listed above did not have any material impact on the amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods.

 
2.3

Revenue

Rental income from operating leases, which have fixed determinable escalation, is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on a straight-line basis.

 
2.4

Leases

The Company as a lessor

Leases for which the company is a lessor are classified as operating leases.

 
2.5

Operating leases: the Company as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 
2.6

Leased assets: the Company as lessee

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease: at inception of a contract. The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease agreements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets. For these leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

 
2.7

Finance costs

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.

2.8

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities
A deferred tax liability is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
A deferred tax asset is recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. A deferred tax asset is not recognised when it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).
A deferred tax asset is recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current and deferred taxes are recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from:
• a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, to other comprehensive income, or
• a business combination.
Current tax and deferred taxes are charged or credited to other comprehensive income if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, to other comprehensive income.
Current tax and deferred taxes are charged or credited directly to equity if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, directly in equity.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.9

Impairment of assets

The company assesses at each end of the reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.
The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss.
An impairment loss of assets carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation or amortisation is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
In respect of trade receivables, receivables with a short duration are not discounted. Receivables that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Company's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.
Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables and banking advances, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an impairment allowance account. When a trade receivable or banking advance is considered uncollectable, it is written off against the impairment allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the impairment allowance account are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Impairment losses are reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

 
2.10

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model, other than investment properties, are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.10
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Long-term leasehold property
-
This will be depreciated over the lease term of
the property.

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

 
2.11

Investment property

The company applies the cost model in accounting for investment property.
Investment properties are recognised as an asset when, and only when, it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment properties will flow to the Company, and the cost of the investment properties can be measured reliably.
Investment properties are initially recognised at cost. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement. Land is stated at cost on acquisition and is not depreciated.
Buildings are reflected at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Buildings are depreciated on the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, taking into account any residual values.
Subsequent expenditure relating to investment properties is capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefits will be increased. All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Profit or loss on the sale of investment properties is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
In line with company policy, a formal valuation of the properties by an independent valuer is obtained every three years.

 
2.12

Financial instruments

A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset in one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument in another entity. Financial instruments held by the company are classified in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.

The specific accounting policies for the classification, recognition and measurement of each type of
financial instrument held by the company are presented below:

Financial instruments (continued)

Trade and other receivables
 
Classification
Trade and other receivables, excluding, when applicable, VAT and prepayments, are classified as financial assets subsequently measured at amortised cost.
 
Recognition and Measurement
Trade and other receivables are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the receivables. They are measured, at initial recognition, at fair value plus transaction costs, if any.
Trade receivables without a significant financing component are initially measured at the transaction price.
 
Impairment
The company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on trade and other receivables, excluding VAT and prepayments. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date.
The company measures the loss allowance for trade and other receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses (lifetime ECL), which represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of the receivable.
 
Measurement and recognition of expected credit losses
The company makes use of a provision matrix as a practical expedient to the determination of expected credit losses on trade and other receivables. The provision matrix is based on historic credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current and forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date, including the time value of money, where appropriate.
 
De-recognition policy
The company derecognises a receivable when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. Receivables written off may still be subject to enforcement activities under the company recovery procedures, taking into account legal advice where appropriate. Any recoveries made are recognised in profit or loss.
Borrowings and loans from related parties
 
Classification
Amounts owing by (to) group companies (note 16) are classified as financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Trade and other Payables
Classification
Trade and other payables (note 16), excluding VAT and amounts received in advance, are classified as financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are stated at carrying amount which is deemed to be fair value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks net of bank overdrafts and investment in money market instruments, all of which are available for use by the Company unless otherwise stated.

Derecognition
Financial assets

In relation to its investment properties, the company has taken the decision to apply the cost model to such assets. In line with company policy, a formal valuation of the properties by an independent valuer is obtained every three years. In the interim period, management is deemed to have sufficient experience and skill to perform this valuation. At 30 June 2025, the total valuation of the investment property portfolio made by Drake & Partners LLP on an open market value for existing use basis was £19,490,000. Values were between 1% and 114% above the cost across the portfolio. Sensitivity has been disclosed within Note 3. At 30 June 2024, the valuation of the investment properties was £17,666,457. These valuations have been determined with regard to experience of the market and rental yields, and is classified as Level 3 as defined by IFRS 13. An exemption has been taken under FRS 101 from disclosing the valuation techniques and inputs used for fair value measurements.
Investment properties are depreciated on the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, taking into account any residual values. Since the residual value exceeds or is equal to the carrying value of the assets, no depreciation has been charged.
