NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025
1 | GENERAL INFORMATION
| Frost Farms Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office is:
| Draycott Moor Farm
| Southmoor
| Abingdon
| Oxon
| OX13 5JA
| The financial statements are presented in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the company.
2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| Basis of preparation of financial statements
| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' ('FRS 102') and the Companies Act 2006.
| Revenue recognition

| Turnover is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable and represents the sale of agricultural produce, stated net of trade discounts and value added tax.
| The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity.

| Tangible fixed assets

| Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

| Depreciation has been provided at the following rate so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less residual value of the assets over their estimated useful lives.
| Farm improvements | Fully depreciated at 1 October 1998
| Plant, machinery and equipment | Reducing balance basis 15-33% per annum
| Motor vehicles | Reducing balance basis 25% per annum
| On disposal, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item sold is recognised in the profit and loss account, and included within administrative expenses.

2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued…)
| Investment properties

| Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs.
| Subsequently, investment properties are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are included in the profit and loss account in the period in which they arise.

| Investments

| Investments in subsidiaries are shown at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

| Financial Instruments
| A financial asset or financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
| The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.
| Where investments in non-derivative financial instruments are publicly traded, or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value through the profit and loss account.
| Basic financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price and measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. They are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any provision for impairment. If the effect of the time value of money is immaterial, they are measured at cost less impairment.
| Basic financial assets and liabilities which are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective impairment at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account immediately.

| Any reversals of impairment are recognised in the profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset or liability which exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment loss not previously been recognised.

| Financing transactions are measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. They are subsequently measured at amortised costs using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued…)
| Impairment of non-financial assets

| At each reporting date non-financial assets not carried at fair value, like goodwill and plant, property and equipment, are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any asset or group of related assets (which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less cost to sell) is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.
| Stocks are assessed for impairment at each reporting date. The carrying amount of each item of stock, or group of similar items, is compared with its selling price less cost to complete and sell. If an item of stock, or group of similar items, is impaired its carrying amount is reduced to selling price less costs to complete and sell, and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.
| If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset, or group of related assets, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not to exceed the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset, or group of related assets, in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.

| Stock

| Stock has been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less cost to complete and sell, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving items. Cost comprises the cost of goods purchased valued on a first in first out basis.
| The carrying amount of stock sold is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.

| Debtors

| Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.
| Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost, less any impairment.

| Creditors
| Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost.

2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued…)
| Taxation
| Taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current tax and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period.
| A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods based on current tax rates and laws. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period.

| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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 taxable profits.
| Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
| Deferred tax relating to land and investment properties that is measured at fair value is measured using the tax rates and allowances that apply to the sale of the asset.

| Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
| Pensions
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The amount charged to the profit and loss account in respect of pension costs and other post-retirement benefits is the amount payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable and contributions actually paid in the year are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.
| Consolidation
| The company is a parent company subject to the small companies regime. The company and its subsidiary comprise a small group. The company has therefore taken advantage of the option provided by section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare group accounts.
3 | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

| The director has made key assumptions in determination of the fair value of its investment properties in respect of the state of the property market in the location where the properties are situated and in respect of the range of reasonable fair value estimates of these assets.
