NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2025 TO 31 JANUARY 2026

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| F. Initiatives 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.

| The functional and presentational currency is the pound sterling (£).

| The company's accounting year end was changed to 31 January to align the reporting period with fellow group members; as a result, the comparatives are not entirely comparable.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES

| Basis of preparing the financial statements

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

| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the directors are satisfied that ongoing financial support from the parent company, F. Iniciativas I+D+I, S.L.U., will continue for a period of at least 12 months and one day from the date of signing the audit report.

| Related party exemption

| The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with its parent and fellow wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

| Turnover

| Turnover represents the agreed percentage fee earned on R&D tax claims submitted on behalf of clients to HMRC, in accordance with the terms of individual contracts. Revenue is recognised when the outcome of a claim can be measured reliably and it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the company. This is typically upon submission of the R&D claim to the client and where there is sufficient certainty over the expected tax credit. Where there is significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate recovery from HMRC, revenue is recognised only when the tax credit has been agreed or received.

| Tangible fixed assets

| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

| Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following method:

| Computer equipment - 50% on cost

| Work in progress

| Work in progress represents amounts recognised as revenue in respect of completed R&D claims that have not yet been agreed by HMRC or for which payment has not yet been received. WIP is measured at the value of revenue recognised and is included within current assets. Upon agreement of the claim by HMRC or receipt of funds, invoices are raised to customers and WIP balances are reclassified to trade debtors and subsequently settled in cash.

| Taxation

| Taxation for the period 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 period 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.

| Foreign currencies

| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

| Hire purchase and leasing commitments

| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

| 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.

| Basic financial instruments

| Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost. The company does not have any other financial instruments.

3. | EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

| The average number of employees during the period was 23 (2024 - 28 ) .
