NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024

1.	General information

Marcus Evans Events Spain Limited is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of its registered office is 20 Farringdon Street, 11th Floor, London EC4A 4AB. Its principal place of business is Calle Pau Claris 186, Planta 4, Barcelona, 08037, Spain.

2.Accounting policies

2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 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 following principal accounting policies have been applied:

2.2

Going concern

The Company has net liabilities of £2,540,148 (2023: £2,012,385). However, within total liabilities of £2,694,452 (2023: £2,133,248) there are intercompany creditors of £2,055,501 (2023: £1,828,054).

Marcus Evans Holdings (IOM) Ltd has confirmed that currently, as a major creditor of the UK company, it will not demand repayment of the amounts outstanding until such a time that the Company is able to make repayments without having a detrimental impact on the Company. The period for not demanding payment is at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements.

Marcus Evans Holdings (IOM) Ltd has also confirmed that it will currently continue to provide financial resources as may be required for the Company to meet its financial commitments as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and Company also has group financial support available in case of financial difficulties. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

2.3

Revenue

Revenue arises from the provision of services in respect of management and arrangement of conferences. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amount for the provision of services in the normal course of business, net of discounts and other sales-related taxes.

Revenue is recognised at the completion of the conference, until which point the amounts invoiced are recorded as a deferred income.

2.4

Operating leases: the Company as lessee

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

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

2.5

Event related expenses

Directly attributable event expenses are recognised in the year in which the event has been completed. Expenses that relate to an event taking place in a subsequent financial year but not paid prior to the year end are recorded as prepayments in the statement of financial position

2.6

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Motor vehicles

25%

Reducing balance

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

2.7

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
