|
YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
1.
General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is 29 York Street, London, W1H 1EZ.
2.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3.
Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in sterling on the historical cost basis. This company is a beneficiary company of Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited and Acorn Braintree Limited which also form part of the Acorn PG Holdings Limited group. Due to the binding legal agreements in place, the trading transactions and balances for the current and comparative year for Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited are reflected in these financial statements.
Going concern
The company is part of the Acorn Property Group and the ultimate parent company is Acorn PG Holdings Limited. The group has made a loss and has net liabilities however has unrealised profits on future development projects and is managing group cashflows to ensure liabilities are being paid as they fall due for payment. The group is receiving financial support from related companies to provide it with adequate working capital for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements and the ultimate parent company has provided group support. For these reasons, the directors have prepared the company's financial statements on a going concern basis.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual outcome may diverge from these estimates if other assumptions are made, or other conditions arise. The key judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows: (i) Funding arrangements Management has assessed the substance of funding agreements for other loans and consider them to be financing arrangements. The sums advanced under these agreements are therefore included in creditors as financial liabilities. The financial liabilities are measured at transaction price, including any transaction costs and subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. (ii) Nominee agreements This company is a beneficiary company of Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited and Acorn Braintree Limited which also form part of the Acorn PG Holdings Limited group. Due to the binding legal agreements in place, the trading transactions and balances for the current and comparative year for Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited are reflected in these financial statements.
Revenue recognition
Interest and arrangement fee income are recognised using the effective interest method.
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stock to its present location and condition.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

10.
Summary audit opinion
The auditor's report dated
24 December 2025
was unqualified
, however, the auditor drew attention to the following by way of emphasis.
We draw attention to note 3 in the financial statements, which indicates that the company is reliant on support from the ultimate parent undertaking, Acorn PG Holdings Limited. We note the group is receiving financial support from related companies. The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is dependent on continuing financial support by the ultimate parent undertaking, which in turn is dependent on the continuing financial support of these related companies. These conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
We draw the readers attention to Note 3 of the financial statements, which describes the basis for preparation of the financial statements. This company is a beneficiary company of Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited and Acorn Braintree Limited which also form part of the Acorn PG Holdings Limited group. Due to the binding legal agreements in place, the trading transactions and balances for the current and comparative year for Highview (Leigham Vale) Limited and Acorn Braintree Limited are reflected in these financial statements. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
