Notes to the Financial Statements |

Year Ended 31 March 2025
1.
General Information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Kingdom House, Woodlands Park, Ashton Road, Newton-Le-Willows, WA12 0HF, England.
2.
Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3.
Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going Concern The company reported a profit before tax of £1,034,951 (2024: 127,029) and has net assets £458,360 (2024: net liabilities of £308,890). The directors are required to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. In satisfaction of this responsibility, the directors have considered the company's ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least twelve months from the signing date of the financial statements. The directors did not identify any uncertainty that cast significant doubt about the liability of the company to continue as a going concern. The company is a subsidiary company and participates in the group's centralised treasury arrangements and so shares banking arrangements with its parent and fellow subsidiaries. The group has considerable financial resources and has generated positive cashflows since the year end date and has continued to trade and win new business. The group has completed a full review of its future plans and has prepared cashflow forecasts. On that basis, the directors are satisfied that the company is able to continue in operation and meet its debts as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements and therefore the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant judgements The judgements (apart from those involving estimations) that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows: - The company assesses the carrying value of amounts due from group companies annually or more frequently if warranted by a change in circumstances. Recoverability is dependent upon assumptions and judgements regarding future cash flows and profit margins. - Determination of whether there are indicators of impairment of the company's intangible and tangible fixed assets. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viabilities and expected future financial performance of the asset. Key sources of estimation uncertainty Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. The key assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows: - Determination of recoverability of trade debts. A specific provision is made against certain debts where in the opinion of the directors there is concern over the recoverability of the debts.
Revenue Recognition Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, being the provision of permanent and temporary staff. Revenue from temporary placements, which represents amounts billed for services of temporary staff, is recognised when the service has been provided. Revenue from permanent placements is recognised on the candidates start date.
Income Tax The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Operating Leases Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.
Intangible Assets Intangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Any intangible assets carried at revalued amounts, are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation, as determined by reference to an active market, less any subsequent accumulated amortisation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination are only recognised separately from goodwill when they arise from contractual or other legal rights, are separable, the expected future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value can be measured reliably.
Amortisation Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:
|
Software development costs |
- |
5 years
|
|
|
|
|
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates. Tangible Assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
|
Plant and machinery |
- |
25% straight line |
|
Fixtures and fittings |
- |
25% straight line |
|
Motor vehicles |
- |
25% straight line |
|

Impairment of Fixed Assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the entity has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the entity will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position and the amount of the provision as an expense. Provisions are initially measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date and subsequently reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate of the amount that would be required to settle the obligation. Any adjustments to the amounts previously recognised are recognised in profit or loss unless the provision was originally recognised as part of the cost of an asset. When a provision is measured at the present value of the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period it arises.
Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Defined Contribution Plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.
