Notes to the financial statements
For the period ended 31 December 2025
The Company is a private company, limited by shares and registered in England and Wales. Its registered office is 20 Wenlock Road, London, N1 7GU. Registered number 15977789.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the requirements and the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, notwithstanding that the
company has inccurred a net loss of £727,179 and that as at 31 December 2025, the company has net liabilities of £727,178. The company incorporated in September 2024 and opened its flexible workspace in October 2025. During the pre-opening and early periods of trade the company’s initial and ongoing working capital requirements are funded through a working capital loan provided by its landlord partner. This loan, along with the anticipated signing-up of further office space throughout 2026 by clients with whom the company is in discussions, should enable the company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future by meeting its liabilities as they fall due for payment. The company's parent company has also confirmed that they will not recall the debts owed to it until the company has sufficient resources available and will continue to support the company to meet its debts as they fall due if required. The company has net current liabilities of £480,754 as at 31 December 2025.
The directors have prepared financial forecasts to assess the cash position of the company. The forecasts are dependent upon anticipated new licences being signed in 2026. If a significant number of the anticipated new licences were to fail to be signed, this may have a detrimental impact on the company’s operations and cash flows and therefore a material uncertainty exists in relation to the going concern basis of preparation of the financial statements.
The directors believe that it is appropriate to present the accounts on a going concern basis. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result in this basis of preparation
being inappropriate.
Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before turnover is recognised:
Turnover from a contract to provide services 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 turnover can be measured reliably;
∙it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the contract;
∙the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured
reliably; and
∙the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.

For the period ended 31 December 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. 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 by management.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
|
|
|
|
|
Short-term leasehold property
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
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.
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.
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, and loans to and from related parties.

The auditors' report on the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2025 was unqualified.
|
|
In their report, the auditors emphasised the following matter without qualifying their report:
We draw attention to note 2.2 in the financial statements which indicates that the company incurred a net loss of £727,179 and as at 31 December 2025 the company has net liabilities of £727,178.The company's ability to meet liabilities as they fall due is reliant on increasing the number of licences signed up and failure to do so would be detrimental to the company's operations and cash flows. As stated in note 2.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2.2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The audit report was signed on 23 June 2026 by Claire Watkins (Senior statutory auditor) on behalf of Buzzacott Audit LLP.
