2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Summary of significant accounting policies
|
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all reporting periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Financial Reporting Standard 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies.
Details of those estimates and/or judgments made in applying the Company's accounting policies towards the preparation of these financial statements that may be considered as yielding a significant risk of a material adjustment being made to the carrying amounts of assets and/or liabilities reported in the balance sheet during the next financial reporting period are disclosed in note 3 to the financial statements.
|
|
|
Functional and presentational currency
|
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (the "functional currency").
The functional currency of the Company, and the currency in which the financial statements are presented (the "presentational currency"), is 'Pounds Sterling' (£) rounded to the nearest single unit of currency.
|
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
Foreign currencies are translated into the functional (and presentational) currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the respective transaction or valuation where items are re-measured.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
At the balance sheet date, the Company held net liabilities of £127,542 after recognising net deferred production activity of £263,950.
In preparing these financial statements the directors are of the opinion that based on current and expected operational performance, there is a reasonable expectation that the Company shall have adequate financial resources available at its disposal to ensure liabilities are appropriately discharged as they should fall due and continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
While there will always remain inherent uncertainty, the directors have no reason to believe that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and therefore consider it both appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Company's financial statements and to not recognise any adjustments in the financial statements that would arise if the going concern basis were to become no longer appropriate.
Turnover comprises of revenues recognised by the Company in respect of sports based motion picture development and production services supplied during the reporting period, exclusive of Value Added Tax.
Development and production service revenues comprises of licence fees and other pre-sales receivable towards a contract for services provided and is recognised on a 'milestone basis' in accordance with the underlying contractual agreement. Both under and overspends are accounted for once known and are recognised in accordance with the underlying contractual agreement. Provisions are made for any loss making contracts (i.e. expected overspend is in excess of originally anticipated margin) as soon as identified.
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the contracted services and related payment exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
Royalties and other similar income on exploitation of distribution rights held are recognised once the Company has been notified of sums due to it.
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees and on behalf of certain employees makes direct contributions to their personal pension schemes.
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on an accruals basis as they become payable under the respective schemes rules. Amounts not paid are shown as part of other creditors in the balance sheet. The assets of the respective plans are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Operating leases, net of benefits receivable as an incentive, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Taxation for the financial reporting period comprises of current (i.e. corporation) and deferred taxation; both of which are recognised in profit or loss.
Current taxation is calculated using tax rates and on the basis of tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the UK where the Company solely operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred taxation is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their respective carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred taxation is calculated using tax rates and on the basis of tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset/liability is realised/settled.
Tangible fixed assets are recognised under the cost model and stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. 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 upon acquisition.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
|
|
|
|
|
Short-term leasehold property
|
|
Straight-line over the lease term
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Straight-line over three years
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Straight-line over four years
|
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
The residual value and depreciation basis of tangible fixed assets are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively where deemed appropriate, if there is an indication of a significant change since the last balance sheet date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
|
|
Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to apply judgment and make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other available sources based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Consequently, actual results may differ from that originally estimated.

3.Judgments in applying accounting policies (continued)
In the opinion of the directors, the following judgments, estimates and/or assumptions made in applying the principal accounting policies, outlined in note 2 of these financial statements, towards the preparation of these financial statements may be considered as having a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and/or liabilities carried forward as at the balance sheet date where by which the actual future outcome observed may differ from that originally determined and reported.
Accrued and/or deferred income and/or expenditure in respect of motion picture development and production services supplied
∙When assessing the income and expenditure to be either accrued and/or deferred as at the balance sheet date, the directors consider the potential changes in costs expected to be incurred in order to achieve completion and subsequent delivery of the relevant milestone, taking into account current and expected activity, changes in market risk and the likelihood of completion based on current expectations.

|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 8 (2024 - 6).
