NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025


1. Statutory information

Corporate IT Systems Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number is 05392558. The registered office is Brooke Suite, Ground Floor, Bewley House, Marshfield Road, Chippenham, SN15 1JW, and the business address is Unit 2, Block A, Arena Business Centre, Holyrood Close, Poole, Dorset, BH17 7FJ.

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.

Turnover
Turnover represents amounts receivable, excluding value added tax, in respect of services provided in the ordinary course of business.

Revenue from ongoing annual maintenance fees is recognised across the life of the contract starting from the date the service agreement begins. Any amounts received for these maintenance fees in advance of the services being provided are showed as deferred income until such time as the customer receives the service.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Computer equipment - 33% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 33% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance

Stocks
Stock and Work In Progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 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.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

2. Accounting policies - continued

Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction price and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company, after deducting all liabilities.

At each balance sheet date, financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Share-based payments
The cost and corresponding increase in equity in respect of equity-settled share-based payment transactions are measured by reference to the fair value of equity instruments issued at the date of grant. Amounts are expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period based on the estimate of shares that will eventually vest and adjusted for the effect of non market-based vesting conditions. The cost and fair value of the liability incurred in respect of cash-settled transactions is measured using an appropriate option pricing model with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss for the period. Further detail is provided in note 14.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following judgements have been made in the process of applying the above accounting policies that have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Share Based Payments
Management is required to use an appropriate pricing model to value the issue of equity to employees. Any charge to the profit and loss account is therefore a function of the chosen pricing model, which is based on a range of assumptions.The vesting conditions are both market vesting and non market vesting, relating to the market value of the shares or company at any particular time, how this value ought to be apportioned over the vesting period, and are conditional on employee actions.

13. Share-based payment transactions

The company operates a enterprise management incentive share options plan.

The options may only vest on the date on which an 'Exit' occurs or on the ninth anniversary of the grant date. An 'Exit' is defined in the option agreement as either a share sale, or an asset sale, or a listing, or the death or incapacity of the director Mr D Witherington.

Any options that have not been exercised on the tenth anniversary of the grant date automatically expire on that date.

If an option holder leaves the company and subject to the provisions in the option agreement, they may then be prohibited from exercising their option.

On exercise, all options are to be settled in full by the issue of equity in the company in the form of Ordinary shares. No restrictions will be attached to these shares.

Enterprise management incentive scheme option transactions in the year at 31 March 2025 were as follows:

At 31 March 2025, the directors were aware that it was probable that an 'Exit' would occur within the service period of the option holders. As such, although the share-based payments have been previously recognised over the 9 year vesting period on a straight line basis, the balance has been recognised in this accounting period.

During the year, an expense of £16,105 (2024- £2,682) for equity instruments has been recognised in the financial statements of the company. Total equity instruments as at 31 March 2025 of £24,084 (2024 - £7,979) are recognised in a 'Share option reserve' within Equity on the Statement of Financial Position.

The fair value of the equity instruments was measured by valuing the call price on the EMI options using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. As there is no observable market nor any recent transactions in the share options, this valuation method is considered to be the most appropriate to comply with the requirements of FRS102 s26.11.
