The notes on pages 3 to 9 form part of these financial statements.

These financial statements have been prepared and delivered in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

The directors of the company have elected not to include a copy of the profit and loss account within the financial statements.true

Alarm Maintenance Company Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in Scotland. The registered office is Unit 5 Wellington Circle, Altens, Aberdeen, Scotland, AB12 3JG.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 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 financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

On the 1st January 2026 the company's business, together with its assets and liabilities, were transferred to another company within the group, Scutum Fire and Security Limited for continuation within that company. Following the transfer of the business on 1st January 2026 this company ceased operating.

These financial statements are therefore not prepared on the going concern basis, as the directors do not assume the company's business will continue for a period of at least 12 months from the date the financial statements are approved. However, there has been no change to the recognition or valuation of assets and liabilities within these financial statements, because the assets and liabilities of the company were transferred to Scutum Fire and Security Limited at their book values on a going concern basis. Assets and liabilities are therefore presented within these financial statements, as if the financial statements had been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes assets are recovered and liabilities settled in the ordinary course of business.

Revenue is recognised to the extent that the company obtains the right to consideration in exchange for its performance. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration receivable, excluding VAT. Revenue from the installation of fire and security equipment is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the installation. Stage of completion is measured by an assessment of the progress of the job by the engineers.

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell after making allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.

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.

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies, 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 payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less.

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred 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.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. 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.

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leases asset are consumed.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was:

Emphasis of matter - non-going concern basis of accounting

We draw attention to Note 1.2 to the financial statements which explains that the group has completed a group reorganisation in which the company's trade and assets have been transferred to a fellow group undertaking. Although the underlying business of the company continues in the fellow group undertaking, the operational activities of this company have now ceased. Accordingly the directors do not consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in Note 1.2. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

At the reporting end date the company had outstanding commitments for future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases, as follows:

At the balance sheet date the company's entire share capital is held by Scutum UK & Ireland Limited, a wholly owned member of the group headed by SLE SAS, a company incorporated in France.

Scutum UK & Ireland Limited is the immediate parent undertaking and the smallest group in which consolidated financial statements are prepared. Copies of the Scutum UK & Ireland Limited financial statements are publicly available at Companies House.

SLE SAS is considered to be the ultimate parent undertaking and controlling party. Copies of the SLE SAS' financial statements may be obtained from 21, Rue du Pont des Halles, 94536, Rungis Cedex.

In accordance with Section 33.1A of FRS 102 the company has applied the exemption from disclosing transactions and balances with fellow wholly owned members of the group headed by SLE SAS.
