Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 31 December 2025

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| James C Brett (Yarn Merchants) Ltd 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.

| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

| The principal place of business is Monarch Mill, Clyde Street, Bingley, West Yorkshire BD16 2NT.

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.

| Revenue recognition

| Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from sale of goods excluding value added tax. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowance.

| Revenue is recognised when goods are despatched and legal title has passed.

| Goodwill

| Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2013, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of twenty years.

| Intangible assets

| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

| James C Brett (Yarn Merchants) Ltd (Registered number: 08568073) |

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued

for the year ended 31 December 2025

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

| Tangible fixed assets

| All tangible fixed assets are at cost less accumulated depreciation. 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.

| Assets held under finance lease are depreciated in the same manner as owned assets.

| Renewals, repairs and maintenance are charged to profit and loss during the period in which they are incurred.

| Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using a mixture of methods. The depreciation bases are as follows:-

| - Plant 10% straight line

| - Motor Vehicles 25% reducing balance

| - Computer equipment 25% straight line

| 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 disposal are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are credited or charged to the income statement.

| Impairment of fixed assets

| At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment to determine whether there is any indication that any items of property, plant and equipment have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indications exists, the recoverable amount of an 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 the asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

| If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less that its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

| Where an impairment loss subsequently reserves, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in the prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

| Investments in subsidiaries

| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

| Stocks

| Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first in first out basis. Net realisable value is the price at which stocks can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for costs of realisation. Provision is made where necessary for obsolete, slow moving, and defective stocks.

| At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. Impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

| 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.

| 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.

| Hire purchase and leasing commitments

| Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of teh benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

| Contributions are paid to a combination of personal defined contribution schemes in the case of directors and NEST with respect to other workers under the auto-enrolment regime. Contributions payable to these pension schemes are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
