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 the years presented.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention.
The financial statements are prepared in pounds sterling which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
Going concern
The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the company has sufficient funds to continue to trade for the foreseeable future.
There was a net loss for the year of £595,063 (2024: £455,130) and at the year end the Company had cash and cash equivalents of £230,295 (2024: £386,200). The directors have considered the ability of the company to continue trading as a going concern for the foreseeable future as this is contingent upon receiving external investment and funding. Initial funding has been secured after the year end. The directors have prepared profit and loss and cash flow projections allowing for this investment. These projections demonstrate the company ability to continue to trade as a going concern for the foreseeable future. Based on this, the directors are satisfied that the company is a going concern and have prepared the financial statements on that basis.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.
The company recognises revenue when:
The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;
it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity;
and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.
Grants
Grants are recognised, using the accrual model, at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the company will comply with conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
The Company is entitled to claim tax credits in the United Kingdom for certain research and development expenditure. When the benefit is most likely expected to be received through the claim of a research and development cash tax credit, a credit to taxation in the statement of profit and loss and associated balance sheet debtor is recognised.
Deferred tax
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Neuronostics Limited
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Computer equipment |
Straight line over 3 years |
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:
|
Patents and licences |
Straight line over 10 years |
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are written off to profit or loss in the year incurred.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are recognised at the transaction price.
Borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the profit and loss account over the period of the relevant borrowing.
Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
Leases
Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.
Neuronostics Limited
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Defined contribution pension obligation
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
Employee benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employees' services are received.
Share based payments
The company issues options over its unissued shares. FRS 102 requires that the cost of equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the date at which they are granted and is recognised as an expense over the vesting period, which ends on the date on which the relevant option holders become fully entitled to the award. Fair value is determined using an appropriate pricing model based on information provided by the directors.
FRS 102 then requires that at each balance sheet date before vesting, the cumulative expense is calculated, representing the extent to which the vesting period has expired and taking into account management's best estimate of the achievement or otherwise of non-market conditions and of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The movement in cumulative expense since the previous balance sheet date is recognised in the profit and loss account, with a corresponding entry in equity.

Prior year adjustment |
The company's results for the year ended 31 December 2024 has been restated from the results previously reported. The adjustments are as follows;
The loss for the year ended 31st December 2024 has been increased by £1,389, and brought forward negative reserves as at 1 January 2023 increased by £45,157, in respect to a change in accounting policy to recognise third party patent costs as an expense and not as an intangible asset. As a result of this, the net book value of intangible fixed assets as at 31st December 2024 has been reduced to nil.
Therefore the overall impact of these corrections on the company’s result for the year ended 31st December 2024 was to:
• increase loss before tax by £1,389
• Increase negative reserves carried forward as at 31 December 2023 by £45,157
• Increase negative reserves carried forward as at 31 December 2024 by £46,546
