| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 MARCH 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| X Force Group Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
| The financial statements contain information about X Force Group Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
| Related party exemption |
| The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
| Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
| Patents and licences are valued at cost. Amortisation has not been provided as any potential charge would be immaterial. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any provision for impairment in value. |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
| Freehold property - not provided |
| Plant and machinery - 10 straight line |
| Fixtures and fittings - 10 straight line |
| Freehold property is maintained to ensure that its value does not diminish over time. The maintenance costs are charged to the profit and loss account as they are incurred. In the opinion of the directors, depreciation would be immaterial and, therefore, freehold property is not depreciated. |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Financial instruments |
| A basic financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset in one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. |
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. |
| Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. Trade and other debtors and amounts owed from group undertakings are measured at the undiscounted amount of cash or other consideration expected to be received. |
| Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date with any impairment loss being recognised in profit and loss. |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans are recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. |
| Loans are initially measured at the present value of future payments, discounted at a market rate of interest, and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| 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 |
| 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. |
| Financial instruments |
| Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all if it liabilities. |

| 12. | CONTINGENT LIABILITIES |
| During the year, the Company refinanced its senior debt facilities with HSBC UK Bank PLC. In connection with this refinancing, the Company entered into an acknowledgement of debt with a shareholder in respect of historic financial support provided to the business. |
| Under this acknowledgement, a total amount of £1.2 million is recognised as potentially payable. This amount represents all loans advanced by the shareholder together with approximately nine years of compounded interest, arising from financial support provided to the Company between August 2013 and January 2016. This support included funding provided in addition to the shareholder’s share capital and assistance with the acquisition of fourteen X-Force training machines used in the business. |
| Of the total acknowledged amount, £527,486 has been recognised as a liability at the year end, representing additional capital introduced by the shareholder, separate from share capital and equipment contributions. |
| The acknowledged debt is secured by a legal charge over certain Company assets, which ranks behind the fixed and floating charge held by HSBC UK Bank PLC. |
| The Directors consider that repayment of the remaining unrecognised balance, amounting to £672,514, would be dependent upon the future realisation of certain assets of the Company. As repayment of this balance is contingent upon future events outside the Company’s control, no provision has therefore been made in these accounts in respect of that amount, other than the existence of a second-ranking legal charge over certain Company assets. |
| 13. | RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES |
| Included in other creditors is an amount of £527,486 (2024: £527,486) owed to M Thulin, a shareholder of the company. No interest has been charged during the year. |
| Included in other creditors is an amount of £94,389 (2024: £181,411) owed to D Whitaker, a director and shareholder of the company. Interest amounting to £39,600 (2024: £35,200) has been charged during the year. |
| Included in other debtors is an amount of £115,100 owed from S Thornton, a director and shareholder of the company. No interest has been charged during the year. |
