Clarity Telecom Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the financial year ended 31 December 2025

   
1. General Information
 
Clarity Telecom Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated and registered in Northern Ireland. The registered number of the company is NI038966. The registered office of the company is , Northern Ireland which is also the principal place of business of the company. The principal activity of the company during the year was that of a tele-communications service provider. The financial statements have been presented in Pound (£) which is also the functional currency of the company.
         
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the company's financial statements.
 
Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the company for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102 Section 1A (Small Entities) and the Companies Act 2006.
 
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention except for certain properties and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or 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.
 
Consolidated accounts
The company is entitled to the exemption in Section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 from the obligation to prepare group accounts.
 
Turnover
Turnover comprises the invoice value of goods supplied by the company, exclusive of trade discounts and value added tax.
 
Research & Development

Research and development expenditure is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Development expenditure incurred on clearly defined projects whose outcome can be assessed with reasonable certainty is carried forward and amortisation is charged from that time over the lesser of the life of the project or five years.

 
Operating leases
Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.
 
Goodwill
Purchased goodwill arising on the acquisition of a business represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the identifiable net assets including other intangible fixed assets when they were acquired. Purchased goodwill is capitalised in the Statement of Financial Position and amortised on a straight line basis over its economic useful life of 10 years, which is estimated to be the period during which benefits are expected to arise.  On disposal of a business any goodwill not yet amortised is included in determining the profit or loss on sale of the business.
 
Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or at valuation, less accumulated depreciation. The charge to depreciation is calculated to write off the original cost or valuation of property, plant and equipment, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives as follows:
 
  Leased Equipment - 20% Straight line
  Office Equipment - 33% Straight line
  Motor vehicles - 25% Straight line
  VOIP Equipment - 33% Straight line
 
The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed annually for impairment in periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
 
Leasing
Rentals payable under operating leases are dealt with in the Income Statement as incurred over the period of the rental agreement.
 
Financial assets
Investments held as fixed assets are stated at cost less provision for any permanent diminution in value. Income from other investments together with any related tax credit is recognised in the Income Statement in the financial year in which it is receivable.
 
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Stocks are determined on a first-in first-out basis. Cost comprises expenditure incurred in the normal course of business in bringing stocks to their present location and condition.  Full provision is made for obsolete and slow moving items. Net realisable value comprises actual or estimated selling price (net of trade discounts) less all further costs to completion or to be incurred in marketing and selling.
 
Trade and other debtors
Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
 
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs relating to the acquisition of assets are capitalised at the appropriate rate by adding them to the cost of assets being acquired. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on the assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
 
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the same value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
 
Trade and other creditors
Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
 
Employee benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund.
 
Taxation
Current tax represents the amount expected to be paid or recovered in respect of taxable profits for the financial year and is calculated using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the Statement of Financial Position date.
 
Share capital of the company
 
Ordinary share capital
The ordinary share capital of the company is presented as equity.
 
Preference share capital
The dividend rights of the preference shares are non-cumulative and payment is at the discretion of the company. Whilst the preference shares carry no voting rights at meetings, based on their characteristics the preference shares are considered to be presented as equity and not liabilities.
   
3. Significant accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical judgements in applying the company's accounting policies

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

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The company is owed £2,032,532 (2024:1,632,949) due from its subsidiary company, Voxbit Limited and has an investment in that company of £1,100,090. As at 31 December 2026 Voxbit had retained losses of £1,442,584 (2024: £1,350,052) and its main asset was net (of amortisation) capitalised development spend of £2,618,610 (2024: £2,371,005) on a VOIP platform. If that company does not fully profitably commercialise its self-developed  platform so that it can repay its loan, Clarity will suffer a major impairment of its assets.

Partially offsetting the company lending its subsidiary company, Voxbit Limited, £327,327, (2024: £250,409) is owned to the company's sister company that operates in the Republic of Ireland.  The ROI company has liabilities in excess of its assets and has yet to prove itself to be fully commercially viable.

As at 31 December 2025, the company was owed £461,610 (2024: £461,420) from a company in which it has a 50% interest. The debt due is disputed and legal action is being taken in respect of its recovery. Whilst payment has not yet been received, the directors are confident about its recovery

The recoverability of the carrying value of the foregoing, in particular as regards Voxbit - that is based on assumptions concerning both future profitability and the useful economic life of the platform - is a significant accounting judgement reflecting significant estimates that materially impact on the balance sheet position of the company.

No other critical accounting estimates or judgements are made which would have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

   
4. Going concern
 
As referred to in notes 11 & 12, the company is owed a net total of £1,705,205 (2024 :£1,383,540)  from subsidiary companies. Recoverability of these loans does not impact on the company's ability to continue as a going concern as trading after the year end and the company's projections indicate it will have the profitability and liquidity to fully service its debts.  Accordingly, the directors have concluded that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the company's financial statements.
   
5. Critical Accounting Judgements and Estimates
 

The directors consider the accounting estimates and assumptions below to be its critical accounting judgements and estimates:

1. The company considers the amount due from group company Voxbit of £2,032,532 (2024: £1,632,949) to be fully recoverable.

2. The company also considers the amount due from a related party of £461,610 (2024: £461,420) to be fully recoverable notwithstanding the amount due is disputed.

3. The company considers its investment in Voxbit of £1,100,090 to be fully recoverable notwithstanding that company had retained losses and its only significant asset is capitalised spend on an intangible asset of a VOIP platform.
