Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements:
· Section 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’: Presentation of a statement of cash flow and related notes and disclosures;
· Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instrument Issues: Interest income/expense and net gains/losses for financial instruments not measured at fair value; basis of determining fair values; details of collateral, loan defaults or breaches, details of hedges, hedging fair value changes recognised in profit or loss and in other comprehensive income;
· Section 26 ‘Share based Payment’: Share-based payment expense charged to profit or loss, reconciliation of opening and closing number and weighted average exercise price of share options, how the fair value of options granted was measured, measurement and carrying amount of liabilities for cash-settled share-based payments, explanation of modifications to arrangements;
Section 33 ‘Related Party Disclosures’: Compensation for key management personnel.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Prior period errors
In the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023, the intercompany loan payable to the parent undertaking was classified as a non current liability based on directors’ judgement. Under the terms of the loan agreement, the loan is repayable in full upon termination of the agreement or immediately on written demand by the parent company. Accordingly, the comparative information for 2023 has been restated to reclassify the intercompany loan from non current liabilities to current liabilities. The adjustment affects presentation only and has no impact on profit, equity, or cash flows.
R&D tax credit of £191 presented as tax line in 2023 has been reclassified to other income. The restatement does not effect total profit for the year.
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.
The company recognises revenue when:
The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;
it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity;
and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Tax
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 taxable income.
Deferred Tax
D-Orbit UK Ltd
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2024
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their corresponding tax bases, including tax losses carried forward, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are not recognised where there is insufficient evidence that future taxable profits will be available. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Office equipment |
25% straight line |
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Defined contribution pension obligation
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Deferred Tax |
At the balance sheet date, the company had tax losses of £4,764,692 available to carry forward (2023: £3,836,619). No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of these losses due to insufficient evidence that future taxable profits will be available against which the losses can be utilised. The unrecognised deferred tax asset amounts to approximately £1,191,173 (2023: £959,155), calculated using the substantively enacted corporation tax rate expected to apply when the losses are utilised.
