During the year, the company changed its accounting policy in respect of the recognition of research and development tax credits.
Previously, research and development tax credits were recognised in the financial statements on receipt from HM Revenue & Customs. The company now recognises such credits on an accruals basis when entitlement is established, receipt is considered virtually certain, and the amount can be measured reliably.
The directors consider that the revised policy provides more reliable and relevant information regarding the company’s financial performance and position, in accordance with FRS 102.
Comparative figures have been restated. The effect of the change was to decrease profit after taxation for the prior year by £60,059 and increase debtors and retained earnings at 31 March 2025 by £125,145.
