| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Forward Fastener Manufacturing Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services |
| provided in the normal course of business , and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes . The fair |
| value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates. |
| Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the |
| goods have passed to the buyer (usually on dispatch of the goods) , the amount of revenue can be |
| measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the |
| entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably |
| Other operating income represents rental income receivable during the year. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less depreciation and impairment |
| Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over |
| their useful lives on the following bases: |
| Plant and machinery 15% reducing balance, 20% straight line |
| Fixtures, fittings & equipment 10% reducing balance |
| Stocks |
| Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out method and includes all purchase, transport, and handling costs in bringing stocks to their present location and condition. |
| Financial instruments |
| 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. |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |

| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
