Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2025

1	General information

The company is a private company limited by share capital, incorporated in Scotland.

The address of its registered office is:
Unit 13, Dunfermline Business Centre
Izatt Avenue
Dunfermline
Fife
KY11 3BZ
Scotland

These financial statements were authorised for issue by the director on 1 July 2026.

2	Accounting policies

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the invoiced value of goods and services supplied by the company, net of VAT and trade discounts. Turnover is recognised on an accruals basis.

Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

Tangible assets

Tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation and any provision for impairment.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2025

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following basis:

Asset class	Depreciation method and rate
Fixtures and Fittings	20% Straight Line
Office Equipment	33% Straight Line

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Leases

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
 
Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
 
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

3	Staff numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company (including the director) during the year, was 4 (2024 - 5).
