Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional and presentational currency is £ Sterling.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.
The Company contributes to a defined contribution pension scheme via a group personal pension arrangement. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Company in an independently administered arrangement. The pension charge represents the amount payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.
In these financial statements companies are described as affiliates of Meat Free Monday Limited if:
a) they have the same shareholders or ultimate shareholders as Meat Free Monday Limited, or
b) the company is owed by one or more of the shareholders of Meat Free Monday Limited.
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.
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 4 (2024-4).
