STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
- 1 -

The directors present the strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2025.

 

Principal activities

Career Teachers Limited is a subsidiary of Affinity Workforce Solutions Ltd and part of the Health Care Resourcing Group Ltd (group) and the principal activity during the year was the provision of temporary and permanent teaching staff to schools within the UK.

Review of the business

Turnover for the year was £22.0m (fifteen months ended 2024: £32.0m) producing a gross profit of £5.9m (fifteen months ended 2024: £9.1m). Profit before tax was £0.8m (fifteen months ended 2024: £0.9m).

 

On 3rd April 2024, Affinity Workforce Solutions Ltd acquired the entire share capital of Career Teachers Limited and Career Teachers 2006 Limited for a total consideration of £5.3m.

 

A dividend of £1.4m was paid for the year ended 31 March 2025 (fifteen months ended 2024: £nil).

 

Education staffing

Career Teachers Ltd operates across the UK, providing temporary and permanent teaching staff to local authority, private, independent schools, multi academy trusts and residential units.

 

During the year, continued substantial investment was made in branch and divisional leadership, in terms of quality, training and central support to help the company to achieve its goal, of being the provider of choice in each geographical region in which it operates. As part of this, our internal review, KPI management and regional structures have all been reviewed, with further evolution in the quality of our services expected in the future.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The group has management structures and policies and procedures which are designed to enable the achievement of the business objectives while controlling risks associated in the environment in which it operates. The group has a risk management process in place which is designed to identify, manage and mitigate business risk. The risk management process covers financial, operational and commercial areas of risk.

 

In terms of financial risk management, the group considers that it has limited exposure to the various aspects of financial risk. The majority of the group's revenue is invoiced in sterling whilst all of its operations and costs arise within the UK. The group does not enter into currency hedging contracts. Furthermore, the group ensures its liquidity is maintained by entering into long term or short-term financial instruments as necessary to support operational and other funding requirements. The risk that there is a reduction in demand for our services is mitigated by providing services in several different marketplaces, both from a sector and geographical perspective.

 

Commercial risks are managed closely by the group board, and fundamentally include loss of contracts, reputation, changes to legislation, and political risks, for instance as a result of increases in employment taxes. The strengthening of the group board over the last few years has brought substantial experience and knowledge into the group, which will enable these risks to be managed appropriately and mitigated wherever possible.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Key performance indicators

In addition to the KPI's noted above in the review of business, all of which are managed at Divisional and Branch level, the company maintains and reports a substantial number of other financial and non- financial indicators routinely each month.

 

Decision Making

The Directors monitor and review strategic objectives against business plans on a regular basis. The management team support the Directors with the planning and execution of long-term plans and are experienced in the successful implementation of strategic business decisions.

 

Employee interests

The Directors recognise the vital importance of the group's employees and the key role they play in the on-going success of the business. Engagement with operational employees is high and is maintained through regular company briefings and discussions. Employees are supported with training and development including through professional qualifications where needed.

 

Business relationships

The Directors and Management Team regularly review how they maintain positive relationships with all its stakeholders including suppliers, customers and others. They have built a reputation on high levels of customer service.

 

Governance

In recent years, there has been a continued focus on corporate governance, with the board spending a large proportion of its time examining and strengthening our processes throughout the wider group. Ensuring that a solid governance framework is in place is key to maintaining trust and transparency and an important building block for future growth.

Outlook

The directors are pleased with the results for the year and are confident of making further performance improvements and achieving additional growth through contract wins in the forthcoming year.

 

Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

 

After the sale of Career Teachers Limited in April 2024, the company is a subsidiary of Health Care Resourcing Group Limited and relies upon group facilities for the finances to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Based on the forecasts for the trade of the company over the next 12 months and beyond this time the Board believe that a going concern basis is correct.

 

Section 172 statement

This report sets out how the Directors comply with the requirements of Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 and how these requirements have impacted the Directors activities and decision making during the financial year ended 31 March 2025.

 

The Directors consider that they have acted in good faith to promote the success of the group on behalf of the stakeholders, in relation to matters set out in s172 of the Act. The stakeholders of the business include the employees, clients, suppliers and shareholders of the business.

In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

 

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF CAREER TEACHERS LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Career Teachers Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the income statement, the statement of financial position, the statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

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.

 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

CAREER TEACHERS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF CAREER TEACHERS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
- 7 -
Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' report.

 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 4, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

Our assessment focused on key laws and regulations the entity has to comply with and areas of the financial statements we assessed as being more susceptible to misstatement. These key laws and regulations included but were not limited to compliance with the Companies Act 2006, United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and relevant tax legislation.

 

We are not responsible for preventing irregularities. Our approach to detect irregularity included, but was not limited to, the following:

 

CAREER TEACHERS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF CAREER TEACHERS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
- 8 -

Whilst considering how our audit work addressed the detection of irregularities, we also consider the likelihood of detection based on our approach.

 

We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining

an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

 

In response to the risk of irregularities in relation to non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

 

Irregularities arising from fraud are inherently more difficult to detect than those arising from error.

 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Accounting policies
Company information

Career Teachers Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 33 Soho Square, London, England, W1D 3QU. The company's principal activities and nature of its operations are disclosed in the directors' report.

1.1
Reporting period

The accounting reference date of the company is 31 March but it has taken advantage of Companies Act 2006 S390(5) in preparing its financial statements to a date within 7 days of this date. These financial statements are for a period of 52 weeks ending on 30 March 2025 and the comparatives are for a period of 65 weeks ending 31 March 2024.

1.2
Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework (FRS 101) and in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006.

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 principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

As permitted by FRS 101, the company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions from the requirements of IFRS:

- paragraph 79(a)(iv) of IAS 1

(reconciliation of number of shares at the beginning and end of the period);

- paragraph 73(e) of IAS 16, 'Property, plant and equipment'

(reconciliations between the carrying amount at the beginning and end of the period); and

(reconciliations between the carrying amount at the beginning and end of the period).

- 10 (d) (statement of cash flows);

Where required, equivalent disclosures are given in the group accounts of Health Care Resourcing Group Limited. The group accounts of Health Care Resourcing Group Limited are available to the public and can be obtained from 33 Soho Square, London W1D 3QU.

1.3
Going concern

Atruet the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

 

After the sale of Career Teachers Limited in April 2024, the company is a subsidiary of Health Care Resourcing Group Limited and relies upon group facilities for the finances to meet its liabilities as they fall due. Based on the forecasts for the trade of the group over the next 12 months and beyond this time the Board believe that a going concern basis is correct.

1.4
Revenue

The company earns revenue from the provision of services relating to provision of staff. This revenue is recognised in the accounting period when the services are rendered at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling its performance obligation to customers.

 

The principle in IFRS are applied to revenue recognition criteria using the following 5 step model:

1. Identify the contracts with the customer.

2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

3. Determine the transaction price.

4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

5. Recognise revenue when or as the entity satisfies its performance obligations.

Fee arrangements

 

Below are details of fee arrangements and how these are measured and recognised, for revenue from the provision of services:

 

Contract assets and receivables

 

Where services are transferred to the customer before the customer pays consideration, or before payment is due, contract assets are recognised. Contract assets are included in the statement of financial position and represent the right to consideration for products delivered. Contract receivables (loans and advances) are recognised in the statement of financial position when the company's right to consideration becomes unconditional.

 

Contract assets & receivables (loans and advances) are classified as current or non-current based on the company's normal operating cycle and are assessed for impairment at each reporting date.

Impairment of contract related balances

 

At each reporting date, the company determines whether or not such assets are impaired by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the remaining amount of consideration that the company expects to receive less the costs that relate to providing services under the relevant contract. In determining the estimated amount of consideration, the company uses the same principles as it does to determine the contract transaction price, except that any constraints used to reduce the transaction price will be removed from the impairment test.

 

Where the relevant contracts or specific performance obligations are demonstrating marginal profitability or other indicators of impairment, judgement is required in ascertaining whether or not the future economic benefits from these contracts are sufficient to recover these assets. In performing this impairment assessment, management is required to make an assessment of the costs to complete the contract. The ability to accurately forecast such costs involves estimates around cost savings to be achieved over time, anticipated profitability of the contract, as well as future performances against any contract-specific Key Performance Indicators that could trigger variable consideration, or service credits. Where a contract is anticipated to make a loss, these judgements are also relevant in determining whether or not an onerous contract provision is required and how this is to be measured.

1.5
Intangible assets other than goodwill

Intangible assets represent the carrying value of computer software and licences.

 

Carrying value is equal to cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment or, in the case of assets acquired through business combinations, fair value at date of acquisition less accumulated amortisation and impairment.

 

Computer software and licences are defined as having finite useful lives and the costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each of the assets, considered to be between three to five years. The expense is taken to the income statement through the "depreciation and amortisation" line within administrative expenses.

 

All intangible assets are also reviewed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount may be impaired. Useful lives are also examined on an annual basis and adjustments, where applicable, are made on a prospective basis.

1.6
Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

 

The cost of property, plant and equipment includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold land and buildings
Over the term of the lease
Leasehold improvements
Over the term of the lease
Fixtures and fittings
15% to 25% straight line basis
Computers
15% to 25% straight line basis

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the income statement.

1.7
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

At each reporting end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

1.8
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9
Financial assets

Financial assets are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are classified into specified categories, depending on the nature and purpose of the financial assets.

 

At initial recognition, financial assets classified as fair value through profit and loss are measured at fair value and any transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. Financial assets not classified as fair value through profit and loss are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

The company does not have any assets held for trading nor does it voluntarily classify any financial assets as being at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets held at amortised cost

These assets arise principally from the provision of services to customers (for example trade debtors), but also incorporate other types of financial assets where the objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. They are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

Impairment of financial assets

Impairment provisions for current and non-current trade debtors are recognised based on the simplified approach within IFRS 9 using a provision matrix in the determination of the lifetime expected credit losses. During this process the probability of the non-payment of the trade debtors is assessed. This probability is then multiplied by the amount of the expected loss arising from default to determine the lifetime expected credit loss for the trade debtors. For trade debtors which are reported net, such provisions are recorded in a separate provision account with the loss being recognised within cost of sales in the statement of comprehensive income. On confirmation that the trade debtor will not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is written off against the associated provision.

 

Impairment provisions for receivables from related parties and loans to related parties are recognised based on a forward-looking expected credit loss model. The methodology used to determine the amount of the provisions is based on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition of the financial asset. For those where the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition of the financial asset, twelve month expected credit losses along with gross interest income are recognised. For those for which credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime expected credit losses along with the gross interest income are recognised. For those that are determined to be credit impaired, lifetime expected credit losses along with interest income on a net basis are recognised. From time to time, the company elects to renegotiate the terms of trade debtors due from customers with which it has previously had a good trading history. Such renegotiations will lead to changes in the timing of payments rather than the changes to the amounts owed and, in consequence, the new expected cash flows are discounted at the original effective interest rate and any resulting difference to the carrying value is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income (operating profit).

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

1.10
Financial liabilities

The company recognises financial debt when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial liabilities are classified as either 'financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' or 'other financial liabilities'.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, trade payables and other short-term monetary liabilities, are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of the financial liability. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. For the purposes of each financial liability, interest expense includes initial transaction costs and any premium payable on redemption, as well as any interest or coupon payable while the liability is outstanding.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, the company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled, or they expire.

1.11
Equity instruments

Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

1.12
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

1.13
Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

 

Provisions are measured at the directors' best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the reporting date and are discounted to present value where the effect is material.

1.14
Retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period in which they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.

1.15
Leases

All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability except for leases of low-value assets and leases with an expected full term of 12 months or less.

 

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the unpaid contractual payments over the expected lease term, with the discount rate determined by reference to the rate inherent in the lease unless (as is typically the case) this is not readily determinable, in which case the company's incremental borrowing rate on commencement of the lease is used.

On initial recognition, the carrying value of the lease liability also includes amounts expected to be payable under any residual value guarantee; the exercise price of any purchase option granted in favour of the company if it is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and any penalties payable for terminating the lease, if the term of the lease has been estimated on the basis of the termination option being exercised.

 

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at the amount of the lease liability, reduced for any lease incentives received, and increased for lease payments made at or before commencement of the lease, initial direct costs incurred and the amount of any provision recognised where the company is contractually required to dismantle, remove or restore the leased asset.

Subsequent to initial measurement, lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate on the balance outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease or over the remaining economic life of the asset if this is judged to be shorter than the lease term.

The company has made an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to recognise lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less (i.e., short-term leases or a value of less than £5,000 (i.e., low value leases).

 

The company has made an accounting policy election on a lease-by-lease basis, not to recognise lease assets on leases for which the underlying asset is of low value.

 

Lease payments on short term and low value leases are accounted for on a straight line basis over the term of the lease or other systematic basis if considered more appropriate. Short term and low value lease payments are included in operating expenses in the income statements.

When the company revises its estimate of the term of any lease, it adjusts the carrying amount of the lease liability to reflect the payments to make over the revised term, which are discounted at a revised discount rate that is implicit in the lease for the remainder of the lease term. The carrying value of lease liabilities is similarly revised if any variable element of future lease payments dependent on a rate or index is revised. In both cases, an equivalent adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use asset, with the revised carrying amount being amortised over the remaining lease term.

 

When the company renegotiates the contractual terms of a lease with the lessor, the accounting depends on the nature of the modification, If the renegotiation results in one or more additional assets being leased for an amount similar to the standalone price for the additions right-of use obtained, the modification is accounted for as a separate lease in accordance with the above policy. In all other cases where the renegotiation increases the scope of the lease (whether that is an extension to the lease term, or one or more additional assets being leased), the lease liability is remeasured using the discount rate applicable on the modification date, with the right-of-use asset being adjusted by the same amount. If the renegotiation results in a decrease in the scope of the lease, both the carrying amount of the lease liability and right-of-use assets are reduced by the same proportion to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease with any difference recognised in profit or loss. The lease liability is then further adjusted to ensure the carrying amount reflects the amount of the renegotiated payments over the renegotiated term, with the modified lease payments discounted at the rate applicable on the modification date. The right-of-use asset is adjusted by the same amount.

 

Right-of-use assets are reviewed regularly to ensure that the useful economic life of the asset is still appropriate based on the usage of the asset. Where the asset has reduced in value the company considered the situation on an asset-by-asset basis and either treats the reduction as an acceleration of depreciation or as an impairment under IAS 36 Impairment of Assets. An acceleration of depreciation occurs in those cases where there is no opportunity or intention to utilise the asset before the end of the lease. An impairment is recognised in those few cases where the current value-in-use of the asset is significantly less than the carrying amount and there is no intention or opportunity known of that mitigates this for impairment.

 

For contracts that both convey a right to the company to use an identified asset and require services to be provided to the company by the lessor, the company has elected to account for the entire contract as a lease.

1.16
Foreign exchange

Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss.

1.17
Finance income and costs policy
Interest payable and similar charges include interest payable in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Other interest receivable and similar income include interest receivable on funds invested. Interest income and interest payable are recognised in profit or loss as they accrue, using the effective interest method.

Exceptional items are transactions that fall outside the ordinary activities of the group and are presented separately due to their size or incidence.

Amounts owed by related parties

Amounts owed by related parties are assessed for impairment based upon the current financial position and expected future performance of the party to which they relate. Amounts due from related parties are interest free demand loans.

 

The company applies the IFRS 9 general approach to measuring expected credit losses. This approach requires an assessment at the initiation of the loan as to the risk of default, and a further assessment when the credit risk profile of the loans change. IFRS 9 applies a 3 stage model that is applied when calculating the expected credit losses:

 

There is no impact to any interest due to the group company loans being interest free.

 

The company defines the following:

 

Definition of a default - A loan is considered to be in default when there is evidence that the borrower is in significant financial difficulty such that it will have insufficient assets to repay the loan on demand.

 

SICR assessment - The risk that the borrower will default on a demand loan depends on whether the party has sufficient cash or other assets to repay the loan immediately (meaning that the risk of default is very low and the loan is in Stage 1); or does not have sufficient cash or other assets to repay the loan immediately (meaning that the risk of default is higher, and the loan could be in Stage 2 or Stage 3).

 

Credit impaired indicators - A loan is considered to be credit impaired if it meets the definition of a defaulted loan.

 

The company performs this assessment qualitatively by reference to the borrower's immediate cash flow and asset position.

 

2
Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The company makes certain estimates and assumption regarding the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The company has not made any significant judgements when applying the accounting policies.

 

The estimates that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Recovery of receivables

The company carried out regular reviews of the recoverability of all receivable amounts, including those due from related parties, during the period and at the period end. These reviews are carried out on an individual client basis and involve judgement of the likelihood of recovery and estimation of the value expected to be received for each receivable.

 

The directors consider it to be prudent to provide for those trade receivables that have been outstanding for over twelve months and have provided as such for this year.
