Company information
Super Friendly Holdings Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Group Accounts Office, Moth Club, Old Trades Hall, Valette Street, London, E9 6NU.
1.1
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
This company is a qualifying entity for the purposes of FRS 102, being a member of a group where the parent of that group prepares publicly available consolidated financial statements, including this company, which are intended to give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group. The company has therefore taken advantage of exemptions from the following disclosure requirements:
Section 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’: Presentation of a statement of cash flow and related notes and disclosures;
Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instrument Issues: Interest income/expense and net gains/losses for financial instruments not measured at fair value; basis of determining fair values; details of collateral, loan defaults or breaches, details of hedges, hedging fair value changes recognised in profit or loss and in other comprehensive income;
Section 33 ‘Related Party Disclosures’: Disclosure of compensation for key management personnel, along with all other required related‑party information..
The financial statements of the company are consolidated in the financial statements of Solitaire Restaurants Holdings Limited. These consolidated financial statements are available from its registered office, Group Accounts Office, Moth Club, Old Trades Hall, Valette Street, London E9 6NU UK.
1.2
Going concern
Super Friendly Holdings Ltd is a sub‑holding company within the Solitaire Group. As shown in the statement of financial position, the Company has a net current liability position and overall net liabilities at the reporting date. However, the Company remains profitable, with income primarily derived from its investments in, and dividends received from, subsidiary undertakings within the Group. In assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the directors have given due consideration to the nature of these balances, which largely arise from intercompany funding arrangements, as well as the ongoing financial performance of the underlying subsidiaries and the wider support of the Solitaire Group.true
At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will continue to meet its obligations as they fall due and has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Fixed asset investments
Investments in subsidiaries are recognised initially at cost. Cost includes the fair value of consideration given, together with any transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition.
Subsequent to initial recognition, investments are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Investments are reviewed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date. Where such indicators exist, the carrying amount of the investment is compared to its recoverable amount, being the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss identified is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods where there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount, provided that the carrying amount does not exceed the original cost less accumulated amortisation or impairment losses that would have been recognised had no impairment occurred.
A subsidiary is an entity over which the Company has control, being the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
1.4
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.5
Financial instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic 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.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Classification of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, in which case the liability is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities that are payable within one year are not amortised.. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.6
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the Statement of Financial Position date and the amounts reported for revenue and expenses during the period. However, the nature of estimates means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates or judgements. The directors do not consider there to be any significant accounting estimates that would cause a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. The following judgements have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements:
The entity makes use of a 4-4-5 financial system for financial reporting and as a result this results a mismatch between the financial year end and the end of the 4-4-5 period , as such there could be minor differences due to timing which the directors expect due to the system used , however this will not impact the overall financial position and performance of the entity.
