| Directors | |||||||
The following person was appointed as the new Director of the company as of 26 April 2022: |
|||||||
| Mr. Munir Khalil Ali | |||||||
| Director's responsibilities | |||||||
| The Director is responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations. | |||||||
| Company law requires the director to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law, the director has elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the director must not approve the accounts unless he is satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts, the director is required to: | |||||||
| ● | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; | ||||||
| ● | make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; | ||||||
| ● | state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements, | ||||||
| ● | prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. | ||||||
| The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable him to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. | |||||||
| Disclosure of information to auditors | |||||||
| The director at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditor is unaware. Additionally, the director has taken all the necessary steps that he ought to has taken as director in order to make himself aware of all relevant information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information. | |||||||

|||||||
| Mr. Munir Khalil Ali | |||||||
| Director | |||||||
| COFFEE & BREAD LIMITED | ||
| Independent auditor's report | ||
| to the member of COFFEE & BREAD LIMITED | ||
| Opinion | ||
| We have audited the accounts of COFFEE & BREAD LIMITED for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Changes in Equity and notes to the accounts, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 101 'Reduced Disclosure Framework ' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). | ||
| In our opinion the accounts: | ||
| ● | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its loss for the year then ended; | |
| ● | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; | |
| ● | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. | |
| Basis for opinion | ||
| We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the accounts section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the accounts in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. | ||
| Material Uncertainity relating to going concern | ||
| We draw attention to the note going concern on page 10 in the financial statements, which indicates that the company incurred a net loss of £38,036 during the year ended 31 December 2024 and, as of that date, the company's total liabilities exceeded its total assets by £38,034. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in the going concern note on page 10 indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. | ||
| Other information | ||
| The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the accounts and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the accounts does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the accounts or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the accounts themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. | ||
| We have nothing to report in this regard. | ||
| Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 | ||
| In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: | ||
| ● | the information given in the directors’ report for the financial year for which the accounts are prepared is consistent with the accounts; and | |
| ● | the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. | |
| Matters on which we are required to report by exception | ||
| In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report. | ||
| We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: | ||
| ● | adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or | |
| ● | the accounts are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or | |
| ● | certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or | |
| ● | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or | |
| ● | the directors were not entitled to prepare the accounts in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report. | |
| Responsibilities of directors | ||
| As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. | ||
| In preparing the accounts, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. | ||
| Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the accounts | ||
| Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these accounts. | ||
| Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud | ||
| Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: | ||
| ● | the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; | |
| ● | we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with director and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience; | |
| ● | we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and employment law. | |
| ● | we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management; and | |
| ● | identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. | |
| We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur by: | ||
| ● | making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; | |
| ● | considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and | |
| To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: | ||
| ● | performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; | |
| ● | tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; | |
| ● | assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates; | |
| ● | investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. | |
| In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: | ||
| ● | agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; | |
| ● | enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and | |
| ● | reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators. | |
| There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or through collusion. | ||
| A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the accounts is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. | ||
| Other matters which are required to address | ||
| The comparative figures are unaudited. | ||
| Use of our report | ||
| This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. | ||

| 2 | Accounting policies | |||||||
| Going Concerns | ||||||||
| Financial assets | ||||||||
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. | ||||||||
| Financial Liabilities | ||||||||
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognise at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. | ||||||||
| Equity instruments | ||||||||
| Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognise as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company. | ||||||||
| Tangible fixed assets | ||||||||
| Impairment of Fixed Assets | ||||||||
| At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the 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 an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. | ||||||||
| Reserves | ||||||||
| Company's reserves are as follow. Called up share capital reserve represents the nominal value of the shares issued. Profit and loss account represents cumulative profits or losses, net of dividends paid and other adjustments. |
||||||||
| VAT Refunds | ||||||||
| Amounts recoverable are recorded as a receivable when it is probable that the economic benefit will be realised and can be measured reliably. VAT recoverable on purchases is excluded from the expenses and recognised separately as a debtor. The balance is measured at the amount expected to be recovered and is reviewed at each reporting date for recoverability, with any impairment recognised in profit or loss where necessary. | ||||||||
| Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainity | ||||||||
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. |
