Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Year Ended 31 May 2025

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| Surescreen Scientifics Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES

| Basis of preparing the financial statements

| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

| Turnover

| Turnover represents the value of goods and services, excluding value added tax. Turnover is recognised in the period in which the goods and services were provided.

| Intangible assets

| Intangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

| Amortisation is provided at the following annual rate in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:-

| Patents |  | - 10% on cost |  |

| Computer software |  | - 25% on reducing balance |  |

| The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

| Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within 'administration expenses' in the profit and loss account.

| Tangible fixed assets

| Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment loss. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

| Plant and machinery |  | - |  |  | 25% on reducing balance |  |

| Fixtures and fittings |  | - |  |  | 25% on reducing balance |  |

| Motor vehicles |  | - |  |  | 25% on reducing balance |  |

| Computer equipment |  | - |  |  | 25% on reducing balance |  |

| The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

| Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within 'administrative expenses' in the profit and loss account.

| Surescreen Scientifics Limited (Registered number: 08950940) |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

| Stocks

| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. Cost is based on purchase price on a first in first out basis.

| Net realisable value is based on the estimated selling price less further costs expected to be incurred to completion and disposal.

| At each reporting date, stock is assessed for impairment. If impaired, the carrying amount is reduced and the impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.

| Deferred tax

| Deferred tax arises from timing differences between taxable total profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements. These timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.

| A deferred tax asset is recognised only when it is more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of underlying timing differences and losses can be deducted.

| Provision is made at current rates for taxation deferred in respect of all material timing differences.

| Related parties

| The company is a wholly owned subsidiary undertaking of Surescreen Holdings Limited and therefore Surescreen Holdings (2022) Limited. The company has taken advantage of the exemption contained within Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 and has therefore not disclosed transactions with entities which form part of the group, other than as normally disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

| The company operates defined contribution plans for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as an expense when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

| 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.

| Cash and cash equivalents

| Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

| Surescreen Scientifics Limited (Registered number: 08950940) |

| Going concern

| The financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2025 have been prepared on the going concern basis.

| For the year ended 31 May 2025, the company generated a profit of £184,515. Losses of £257,397 were incurred in the prior year but the major reason for this loss was writing off intercompany loans across the group following exceptional years greatly impacted by the pandemic. Without this write off, the company would have been operating comfortably in profit.

| The directors have prepared a cashflow forecast which demonstrates that the group will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the twelve months following the date of signing of these financial statements.

| Profits are expected for the 2026 financial year with results to date in line with budget. It is acknowledged that it is possible that the sales and expenses assumptions that underpin the budget may not be achieved, and the directors have reviewed a plausible downside scenario whereby the timing of payments and receipts differ from the forecasts, which indicate there may be a material uncertainty around liquidity. In this scenario, the directors would inject funds as required to fund short-term cash flow issues.

| The Directors believe that the company will have adequate resources to continue to operate for the next twelve months and as such, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

8. | DISCLOSURE UNDER SECTION 444(5B) OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

| The Report of the Auditors was unqualified.

| We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that forecasts show there may be insufficient liquidity in the future. As stated in Note 2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in Note 2 but specifically the reliance on cash injections from directors, 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.
