Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

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 - Section 1A' and the Companies Act 2006.

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

The presentation currency is £ sterling.

Group accounts not prepared

The company is part of a small group. The company has taken advantage of the exemption provided by Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not prepared group accounts.

Going concern

The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis. The directors have considered a number of factors including the current performance of the business, the retention of existing customers, the current pipeline of sales opportunities and ability to close new contracts, the necessary costs required to meet customer requirements and the requirement to raise further investment.

The directors are comfortable with adopting the Going Concern basis given their review of these and other factors.

Accounting policies (continued)

Revenue recognition

Turnover represents amounts chargeable, net of value added tax, in respect of the sale of goods and services to customers. Service income is recognised based on performance and licence income is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the licence.

Contract revenue recognition

Income on contracts is recognised on the basis of the stage of contract completion achieved and to the extent that the company is confident that substantially no further material work will be required to be performed.

Local government grants

Grants of a revenue nature are credited to income so as to match them with the expenditure to which they relate.

Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in sterling at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated in sterling at the closing rates at the balance sheet date. All exchange differences are included in the profit and loss account.

Tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Tax credits represent the recovery of research and development claims made during the year.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Land and buildings

term of lease

Office and computer equipment

25% straight line basis

Accounting policies (continued)

Research and development costs

Research expenditure is charged to the profit and loss account as incurred.

Development costs are capitalised and treated as intangible assets on the balance sheet, as the entity can demonstrate that all of the points in FRS 102 18.8H are met, and those costs are written off on a straight line basis over a period of 10 years, which is estimated to be the useful life of the development costs.

Amortisation

Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:

Asset class

Amortisation method and rate

Development costs

10 years straight line

Investments

Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the profit and loss account over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Leases

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Defined contribution pension obligation

The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due.

3

Staff numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company (including directors) during the year, was 31 (2025 - 27).
