| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Berry Systems UK Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| These financial statements have been prepared for the individual company. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and under the historical cost convention. |
| The financial statements are presented in Pound Sterling (£), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. Pound Sterling is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest pound, unless otherwise stated. |
| Going concern |
| The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. |
| In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis of accounting, the Board have taken into account a number of factors including current operating performance, cash liquidity, approved budgets forecasts covering the going concern period and forecast banking compliance ratios. |
| Management has prepared, and the Directors have reviewed and approved, budgets for the year ending 30 March 2026. These budgets include profit projections and cash flow forecasts. Longer term 5 year plans out to March 2028 have also been prepared and reviewed by the Board. An element of uncertainty is inherent in forecasting and key sensitivities have been considered when budgets are prepared and approved. |
| Consequently, the Directors are satisfied that the Company will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. |

| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Turnover is the total amount receivable by the company in the ordinary course of business with customers for goods supplied and services provided excluding value added tax. |
| Turnover is recognised to the extent it is probable that economic benefit will flow to the Company. Turnover is recognised as the fair value of consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before turnover is recognised: |
| -The amount of turnover can be measured reliably; |
| -It is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the contract; and |
| -Where applicable, the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably. |
| Turnover in respect of variations to contracts and incentive payments is recognised when it is probable it will be agreed by the customer. Where turnover recognised exceeds billing, the balance is shown as due from customers within debtors. |
| Where contracts are undertaken jointly with other parties the Company only recognises its share of turnover. |
| Financial instruments |
| The company has chosen to adopt Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments. |
| (i) Financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances and investments in commercial paper are initially recognised at transaction price, 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. |
| Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| (ii) Financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, bank loans and loans from fellow group companies are initially 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. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Trade payables 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 payment is due within one year. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are initially recognised at transaction price and subsequently measured 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. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| Cash and bank |
| Cash at bank and in hand include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturites of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
| Impairment excluding stocks and deferred tax assets |
| Financial assets (including trade and other debtors) |
| A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably. |
| An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. For financial instruments measured at cost less impairment, an impairment is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount that the Company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date. Losses on the impaired asset continue to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. |
| Non-financial assets |
| The carrying amounts of the entity's non-financial assets, other than stocks and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the "cash generating unit"). |
| Share capital |
| Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. |
