Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2026


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Apt Partnership Limited Liability Partnership is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
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 requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The functional and presentational currency of the LLP is pounds sterling. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1, except where otherwise indicated.

Going concern
After reviewing the LLP's forecasts and projections, the members have a reasonable expectation that the LLP has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The LLP therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Significant judgements and estimates
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Revenue
Revenue represents amounts recoverable from clients for professional services provided during the year. It is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of VAT. Revenue is recognised in the period in which the services are provided, in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:

- the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
- it is probable that the LLP will receive the consideration due under the contract;
- the stage of completion of the contract at the end of reporting period can be measured reliably; and
- the costs incurred and the costs to complete the services can be measured reliably.

Other income
Interest income, including income arising from finance leases and other financial instruments, is recognised using the effective interest method. Government grants are recognised on an accruals basis in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets include magazine rights and the cost of acquiring customer relationships including customer lists. Magazine rights are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of ten years. In the opinion of the members the customer lists have an active market and that the residual value of the asset is at least equal to the acquisition cost. Accordingly no amortisation is required.

Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment regularly by the members and in any period in which events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be fully recoverable.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 33% on cost

The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Impairment of assets
Fixed assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Financial instruments
Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, 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. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Basic financial liabilities including trade and other payables 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. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

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 LLP contributes to pension schemes of personnel and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the funds in respect of the year.

Provision for liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the LLP will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.

3. EMPLOYEE INFORMATION
