Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Simworx Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going concern
After the end of the financial year but prior to the date of approval of these financial statements, the company has registered a notice of intention to appoint administrators and is extremely unlikely to be able to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern. Where applicable, fixed and current assets have been restated to recoverable amounts. As the financial statements have not been approved until after more than one year from the financial reporting date, creditors falling due after more than one year have continued to be classified as such.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Turnover in respect of long-term contracts is recognised when a set stage, as specified in the contract for sale, has been completed.

All other turnover is recognised either when goods have been delivered to customers or services completed, such that risks and rewards of ownership have passed to them.

Project contracts
Project revenue and costs are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income by reference to the stage of completion of the project, to the extent that the project outcome can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion is measured by reference to set stages, as specified in the contract. An expected loss on a project is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.

Amounts recoverable on contracts are included in debtors and represent revenue recognised in excess of amounts invoiced. Amounts invoiced in excess of revenue recognised and costs recognised in excess of expenses incurred are included in creditors due within one year.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Ride films
Expenditure incurred on developing new ride films is capitalised in the balance sheet and amortised over its estimated useful life of five years. Amortisation is reported in the statement of comprehensive income under administrative expenses.

Development costs
Expenditure incurred on new products and improvements to the company's products is capitalised in the balance sheet as development costs and amortised over its estimated useful life of two to five years. Amortisation commences with the commercial introduction of the new product or incorporation of the improvement into the product and is reported in the statement of comprehensive income under administrative expenses.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Plant and machinery etc - 25% on reducing balance, Straight line over 2 - 5 years and Straight line over 2 - 4 years

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Financial instruments
Fixed asset investments in unlisted shares are initially recognised at cost with any impairment losses being reported in the statement of comprehensive income under administrative expenses.

Derivative financial instruments are recognised at fair value with any gains or losses being reported in the statement of comprehensive income under other operating income/expenses.

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the reporting 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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives and those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to statement of comprehensive income over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income 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.

Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at 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.

4. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 34 (2023 - 26 ) .
