| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| for the Year Ended 31 December 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| A&W Software UK Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Going concern |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing going concern, the directors have considered all available information about the future, covering a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. This assessment includes consideration of the company's liquidity position and the expected continuation of intra group service activities. |
| The company is dependent on the continued financial support of its parent undertaking, which has confirmed that it will provide such support for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. This support forms a key part of the directors' assessment of the company's ability to continue as a going concern. |
| The approach taken is consistent with guidance issued by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), which requires companies to provide transparent, company specific disclosures explaining how going concern conclusions have been reached and how solvency and liquidity risks have been considered. |
| Revenue recognition |
| Revenue from intra group service activities is recognised on a cost plus basis. Revenue is measured as the direct and indirect costs incurred in delivering services to group companies, together with a 5% mark up. This reflects the company's role as a routine service provider within the wider group. |
| The cost plus pricing method applied is consistent with the principles outlined in the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and Tax Administrations, which recognise cost plus as an acceptable arm's length method for determining transfer prices for intra group services. |
| Revenue is recognised as the related services are performed, to the extent that the economic benefits are expected to flow to the company. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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. |

| Debtors |
| Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. |
| Cash and cash equivalents |
| Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value. |
| Creditors |
| Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Foreign currencies |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The Company operates a defined contributions pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the company to the fund and amounted to £8,625 (2024 - £7,542). There were no prepaid or accrued contributions at the yearend (2024 - £nil). |
| Operating leases |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred. |
