INTRODUCTION

The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 October 2025.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND REVIEW OF BUSINESS

The principal activities of the company continued to be that of the provision of hotel, spa, restaurant, bar and events facilities.

The directors consider the results for the year to be in line with expectations with turnover of £10,644,699 (2024: £9,412,416) and profit before tax of £2,008,342 (2024: £1,706,287).

Net assets of the company at the year end were £2,198,332 (2024: £973,942), reflecting the continued strengthening of the company's balance sheet alongside sustained investment in the property. The directors are satisfied with the company's performance for the year and the position at the balance sheet date.

KEY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

The directors consider the key performance indicators are those that communicate the financial performance and strengths of the company as a whole, being turnover, gross profit and operating profit. The directors have provided an analysis of the key performance indicators of the business below. The directors continue to monitor revenue and costs to ensure the company remains profitable. The company continues to maintain a strong net asset position.

In addition to the financial measures above, the directors monitor a range of operational performance indicators standard to the sector, including occupancy, average daily rate, revenue per available room and total revenue per available room, together with spa utilisation and guest satisfaction. The directors consider detailed disclosure of these operational measures to be commercially sensitive and accordingly do not publish them. The directors also monitor employee retention and engagement, recognising the central importance of the company's people to the guest experience.

BUSINESS MODEL

The company's revenues are diversified across accommodation, the spa, restaurant and bar operations and a wedding and events business. The directors consider this breadth of offering, combined with the hotel's distinctive brand identity, to be fundamental to the resilience and continued growth of the business.

The company's business model is targeted at social adventurers seeking stylish, indulgent escapes. Its bold brand identity, combined with its spa, acclaimed restaurant and vibrant event offering, differentiates it from more traditional hospitality venues. Since its acquisition by Galgorm Collection in 2019, the hotel has undergone a £17 million transformation, including the addition of a Roman bath with its iconic disco ball, a man-made heated pebble beach, hot tubs, a salt room, and botanical bathing experiences. The restaurant and bar have also been fully refurbished, and the property has been recognised with an AA Rosette for culinary excellence.

As a key destination within the Collection, the hotel benefits from and contributes to group capabilities in reservations, revenue management, procurement, marketing, finance and people development, and shares the Collection's centre-of-excellence approach to service standards and hospitality training.

Collaboration with key industry bodies and stakeholders remains integral to the company's strategy, with a commitment to developing tourism not only for commercial growth but for the wider benefit of Northern Ireland's visitor economy.

STRATEGY

The company's overarching strategy is centred on delivering distinctive, world-class hospitality experiences that resonate with the local Northern Ireland market, attract guests from the Republic of Ireland, and build greater awareness among international audiences. This approach is underpinned by sustained reinvestment, creative innovation, and a strong commitment to consistently exceptional guest experiences.

The company continues to develop its position as one of Northern Ireland's most distinctive and dynamic hospitality destinations, offering a unique experience-led approach designed to delight and surprise guests. In 2024, the hotel was named 'Best Place to Stay in Northern Ireland' by The Times and Sunday Times, affirming its place at the forefront of boutique hospitality.

During the year, the company completed a £2.5 million investment in 17 new guestrooms. The expansion complements the existing 33 guestrooms and is designed to deliver an elevated guest experience. The hotel also opened its Lake House residency in July 2025, providing a distinctive luxury accommodation experience and further broadening the property's appeal to both domestic and international visitors.

These milestones reflect the company's continued focus on investment, innovation and destination development, reinforcing the hotel's position within Northern Ireland's hospitality and tourism sector.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Board continually reviews risks and uncertainties facing the company by regular review of the company's performance, compliance activities and wider economic factors influencing the marketplace in which the company operates.

Economic risk

We are committed to maintaining an asset-backed balance sheet which underpins our business model and our growth ambitions. Whilst the directors are content the business is in a strong financial position, we are mindful of additional challenges facing the industry including inflationary pressures on utility costs, food and beverage costs and supply chain pressures. However, we believe our robust operating model with a focus on cost control, the diversity of the company's revenue streams and customer base, as well as our strong relationships with our suppliers, will help mitigate these challenges.

People risk

The availability and retention of skilled hospitality staff remains a sector-wide challenge, and the company's people are fundamental to the guest experience. The company mitigates this risk through sustained investment in training, development, wellbeing and retention, as set out in the employment section below, and through its position as an employer of choice within the local community.

Price risk

The company is exposed to commodity price risk as a result of its operations. However, given the size of the company's operations, the costs of managing exposure to commodity price risk exceed any potential benefits. The company has no exposure to equity securities price risk as it holds no listed investments.

Liquidity risk

The company actively maintains a mixture of short term and medium term debt finance that is designed to ensure the company has sufficient available funds for operations and planned expansions.

Foreign exchange risk

When necessary, the company uses financial instruments to manage foreign exchange exposure, in the normal course of the business.

The Board recognises its responsibility for managing business risk faced by the company including the promotion of good corporate governance, meeting legal and statutory obligations, and ensuring a strong framework of internal and financial controls.

EMPLOYMENT

The company is committed to creating careers of purpose, recognising the vital contribution of each employee. We continue to invest in the training, development, and retention of our people, underpinned by internal communication and health and safety processes.

We are proud to remain a key employer within the local community and are dedicated to championing best practice in our approach to employment. Providing access to development opportunities is a key pillar of our retention strategy, enabling us to support career progression, build core capabilities, and develop future industry leaders.

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT AND SECTION 172 STATEMENT

From the perspective of the directors, the matters for consideration under section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 ("s172") have been considered to an appropriate extent by the company. Such consideration is reflected in the statements set out below, with the directors acknowledging their duty under s172 to act in good faith to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its shareholders, while having regard, amongst other matters, to:

- the likely consequences of any decision in the long term;

- the interests of the company's employees;

- the need to foster the company's business relationships with guests and others;

- the impact of the company's operations on the community and the environment;

- the desirability of the company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct; and

- the need to act fairly as between members of the company.

The Board of Directors of the company, both individually and collectively, confirms that it has acted in the way it considers, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole - having regard to the stakeholders and matters set out in Section 172(1)(a)-(f) of the Act - in the decisions taken during the year ended 31 October 2025. The following paragraphs summarise how the directors fulfil their duties:

-As the Board of Directors, our intention is to behave responsibly and ensure that the business is managed with integrity, care, and professionalism. The Board remains accountable for ensuring sound governance and oversight, aligned to the long-term interests of the company and its stakeholders.

-Throughout the year, the Board has prioritised strategic investment in the business to deliver long-term value, enhance guest experiences, and support regional economic growth. The decisions taken during the year to complete the £2.5 million investment in 17 new guestrooms and to launch the Lake House residency were made with regard to the long-term competitive position of the hotel and the continued strengthening of its distinctive market positioning.

-Our employees are fundamental to the success of the business. The company continues to offer purposeful careers and long-term development opportunities, with an emphasis on wellbeing, engagement, and safety. We are committed to being a responsible employer in our approach to pay, benefits, and performance management, ensuring our teams are supported to deliver outstanding guest experiences.

-We are equally committed to acting responsibly and fairly in how we engage with all other stakeholders, including guests, suppliers, local communities, regulators, and industry partners. These relationships are essential to the company's ability to operate successfully and sustainably.

-The company takes seriously the impact of its operations on the community and the environment, and participates in the community initiatives of the wider Galgorm Collection, including the Collection's long-standing partnership with Simon Community Northern Ireland, which has raised more than £180,000 over the last 15 years to support the charity's vital work tackling homelessness across the region.

-We are committed to ongoing, open engagement with our shareholders. Transparent communication of strategy and objectives, along with regular feedback and the appropriate consideration of shareholder input, remain central to our approach. The directors will continue to operate with integrity and accountability to uphold high standards of business conduct.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The broader economic landscape remains subject to change, and the company will continue to monitor market conditions closely. Key areas such as consumer confidence, tourism trends and domestic travel behaviour will be continually analysed to ensure informed decision-making and resilience in the face of external pressures.

The 17 new guestrooms, which opened on 6 December 2024 as part of a £2.5 million investment programme, have been successfully integrated into the hotel's offering and have generated strong demand, supporting continued growth in occupancy and revenue performance. The expansion has further strengthened The Rabbit's position as one of Northern Ireland's leading lifestyle and spa destinations. Building on this momentum, the Lake House residency opened in July 2025 has broadened the property's appeal to both domestic and international visitors.

Looking ahead, the company will continue to invest in enhancing the guest experience. During summer 2026, a programme of upgrades will transform existing Comfy with Bathtub guestrooms into Comfy with Hot Tub guestrooms, increasing premium accommodation inventory and further strengthening The Rabbit's unique market position.

Despite ongoing macroeconomic pressures, the directors remain confident in the hotel's continued growth, supported by the strength of the brand, a culture of innovation, targeted investment, and the dedication of its team, and view the future with confidence.

MATTERS COVERED IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT

Under Schedule 7.1A of "Large and Medium-Sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008" the company has elected to disclose the following directors report information in the strategic report:

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT

The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

-	select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-	make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

-	prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Company's website. Legislation in Northern Ireland governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements and other information included in the Directors' reports may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS

So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the Company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The audit business of CavanaghKelly was acquired by Cooper Parry Audit (Ireland) Limited on 24th July 2025. CavanaghKelly has resigned as auditor and Cooper Parry Audit (Ireland) Limited has been appointed in its place.

The auditors, Cooper Parry Audit (Ireland) Limited, have indicated their willingness to continue in office in accordance with the provision of Section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Tiarnán O'Neill - Director

31 July 2026

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Pig and Chicken Inn Ltd (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 October 2025 which comprise the Income Statement, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

-	give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 31 October 2025 and of its profit for the year then ended;

-	have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

-	have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report, but does not include the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

-	the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

-	the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

-	adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

-	the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

-	certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or

-	we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on pages seven and eight, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud are to assess the risk of material misstatement due to fraud, design and implement appropriate responses to those assessed risks and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the course of our audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with management and those charged with governance of the company.

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

-

We obtained understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the company’s financial statements and considered the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, Financial Reporting Standards (FRS102) and UK taxation legislation;

-

We have assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including risk of material misstatement due to fraud and how it might occur by holding discussions with management and those charged with governance;

-

We enquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations;

-

Understanding the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations; and

-

Discussions amongst the audit engagement team regarding how fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud. As part of this discussion we identified the following potential areas where fraud may occur: timing of revenue recognition and management override.

The audit response to risks identified included:

-

Reviewing the financial statements disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with the relevant laws and regulations above;

-

Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risk of material misstatement due to fraud;

In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are reasonable and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Pig and Chicken Inn Ltd is a private company limited by shares and registered in Northern Ireland. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The principal activities of the company continued to be that of the provision of hotel, spa, restaurant, bar and events facilities.

2.	STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.

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 unless otherwise stated.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention except for certain properties and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts of fair values, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") and FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" issued by the Financial Reporting Council.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Defined contribution pension plan

The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. 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 the Income Statement when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In applying the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make significant judgements, estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. The directors' judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on the best and most reliable evidence available at the time when the decisions are made, and are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be applicable. Due to the inherent subjectivity involved in making such judgements, estimates and assumptions, the actual results and outcomes may differ.

No critical judgements or estimates have been made in applying the company's accounting policies.

Revenue

Revenue recognised in the Income Statement represents amounts invoiced during the year exclusive of Value Added Tax. Revenue is recognised when, and to the extent that, the company obtains the right to consideration in exchange for its performance. With respect to food, bar, spa and function room income, revenue is recognised at the point when the service is provided. For accommodation, revenue is recognised over the duration of the guests stay.

Government grants

Grants are recognised under the accruals model as permitted by FRS 102. Grants relating to expenditure on tangible fixed assets are credited to profit or loss at the same rate as the depreciation on the assets to which the grant relates. The deferred element of grants is included in creditors as deferred income.

Grants of revenue nature are recognised in the Income Statement in the same period as relevant expenses.

Foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the date of transactions.

At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-Monetary items measured at historical costs are translated using the exchange at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit and loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is necessary to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred and disclosed in finance costs.

Finance Costs

Finance costs are charged to the Income Statement 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.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment 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.

At each reporting date the company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

The company adds to the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred, if the replacement part is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the company. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the Income Statement during the period in which they are incurred.

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.

1% - 10% - Straight line

Fixtures and fittings

10% - 25% - Straight line

Motor vehicles

20% - Straight line

Assets under construction

Not depreciated

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 the Income Statement.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchases on a first in, first out basis.

At each Statement of Financial Position date, inventories are assessed for impairment. If inventory is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Income Statement.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the Statement of Financial Position date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Debtors

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.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from due date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

Creditors

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.

Provision for liabilities

Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the company a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Provisions are charged as an expense to the Income Statement in the year that the company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Statement of Financial Position date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.

When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Statement of Financial Position.

Financial instruments

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, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost, unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company, or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.

Investments in non-derivative instruments that are equity to the issuer are measured:

- at fair value with changes recognised in the Income Statement if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably; and

- at cost less impairment for all other investments.

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Income Statement.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.

For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and best estimate of the recoverable amount, which is an approximation of the amount that the company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the Statement of Financial Position date.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of Financial Position when there is an 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.
