GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

Introduction
 
The Directors present their Group Srategic Report for Gravis Capital Management Ltd (“the Company”) and its subsidiary Gravis Advisory Ltd (“GAL”) (collectively “the Group” or “Gravis”) for the year ended 31 March 2026.

Gravis is a London-based specialist investment manager which is authorised and regulated by the FCA. The principal activity of the Group and Company is investment management and advisory services. 

At Gravis we invent and manage funds that aim to give investors radically steady returns. We are involved in long-term projects that have a human dimension, investing in assets that will be needed for many years to come, including renewable, social, economic and digital infrastructure and real estate.

The Gravis team has worked together over many years to build our investment philosophy and has a successful track record across all of our funds. We have a multi-disciplined investment team with the capability to identify, evaluate, execute and manage investment opportunities.

At Gravis, we seek to deliver dependable and predictable long-term cash flows for investors. Our long-term approach enables us to engage with investee companies, borrowers, developers and operators on matters relating to Responsible Investment. This gives us the opportunity to drive positive change where possible.

The Company has three strategic objectives:
 
Best-in-class investment execution and management;
 
Highly efficient distribution and investor relations; and
 
Robust operational and governance structure.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

Business review
 
Gravis Capital Management Limited

The Company is appointed as investment manager and investment adviser to two UK-listed closed-ended investment companies with a combined net asset value of £1.0 billion as at 31 March 2026 (2025: £1.0 billion).

The vehicles are as follows:
 
GCP Infrastructure Investments Limited (“GCP Infra”): an infrastructure debt focused fund with a net asset value of £828.9 million (2025: £871.7 million); and
 
GCP Asset Backed Income Limited (“GABI”): a debt focused fund with a net asset value of £127.0 million (2025: £175.2 million). 
 
Additionally, the Company is portfolio manager to the Robeco Gravis Digital Infrastructure Income Fund which was launched in February 2024 and offers investors exposure to companies that own the physical assets that are vital to the digital economy, in line with the TM Gravis Digital Infrastructure Income Fund. Assets under management are €2.9m (2025: €3.0m).

Gravis Advisory Limited

GAL is investment manager to four UK open-ended investment companies ("OEICs") with assets under management as at 31 March 2026 of £0.7 billion (2025: £0.9 billion). 

In October 2024, GAL was granted permission by the FCA to become investment manager of the OEIC funds, having previously been Appointed Representative.

On the 11th August 2025, the Authorised Corporate Director to the OEICs moved from Valu-Trac Investment Management Limited to Thesis Unit Trust Management Limited. GAL continues to act as the Delegated Investment Manager and there have been no changes to the investment management of the OEICs as a result of these changes.

The OEICs are as follows:
 
TM Gravis UK Infrastructure Income Fund: launched in January 2016, this fund invests in the UK listed infrastructure sector with assets under management of £418.9m (2025: £518.9m).
 
TM Gravis Clean Energy Income Fund: launched in December 2017, this fund invests in a portfolio of securities listed in developed markets, involved in the operation, funding, construction, generation and supply of clean energy. Assets under management of £155.4m (2025: £226.7m).
 
TM Gravis UK Listed Property (PAIF) Fund: launched in October 2019, this fund invests primarily in UK Real Estate Investment Trusts, which are aligned to benefit from four socio-economic mega trends: ageing population, digitalisation, generation rent, and urbanisation. The fund avoids exposure to retail. Assets under management are £135.6m (2025: £93.8m).
 
TM Gravis Digital Infrastructure Income Fund: launched in May 2021, this fund offers investors exposure to companies which own the physical infrastructure assets that are vital to the digital economy. Assets under management are £12.4m (2025: £21.6m).  
 
The Group's revenue streams comprise investment management and investment advisory fees, arrangement fees, and other fees from its funds under management as set out above. The level of investment management and advisory fees is determined by the net asset values of the funds and the rate of capital deployment. The Group reviews the funds’ net asset values and fund performance on a regular basis.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

Financial key performance indicators
 
The Company Board meets every quarter to evaluate Group performance against budget including a review of fund performance, analysis of turnover and operating profit. The key financial performance indicators during the year were:

ole21c9.png

* Excluding amortisation of goodwill.

Turnover and Operating Profit have decreased year on year, as a direct result of lower AUM and reduced investment activity. Turnover is 12% lower than prior year, in line with the 12% fall in AUM over the same period. 

GAL assets under management fell year-on-year due to net investor redemptions, partially offset by positive investment performance across three of the four strategies. While the motivations to redeem from the funds varied, there has been negative sentiment towards investing in the UK, compounded by political uncertainty and government interventions in energy markets. Further, the persistent high central bank interest rate environment has made the income generated by the funds less attractive on a relative basis. In addition, ongoing regulatory developments related to cost disclosure for listed alternative investments, together with global equity markets approaching record highs, contributed to reduced investor flows into the funds. The macroeconomic backdrop remained uncertain, and geopolitical tensions elevated throughout the year. 

The Company continues to work with the GABI Board of Directors on the managed wind-down of GABI. The Company was retained as investment manager to GABI to provide investment management services in connection with the orderly realisation of the fund’s assets.  The reduction in the fund’s NAV over the period reflects the orderly realisation of portfolio assets and the resultant partial redemption of GABI shares.  The consequent reduction in Company revenue over this period was in line with plan.

Another contributing factor to this year's net loss of £0.7m was amortisation of goodwill amounting to £2.1m. Excluding this non-cash charge, the Group would have reported a profit for the year. EBITDA for the year was £0.7m. The Group also earned £0.8m of interest income from cash balances held on the balance sheet.

Operational costs were 4% lower than prior year, reflecting a commitment to cost control. Despite this reduction, staff costs remained consistent with prior year demonstrating the Group’s on-going commitment to investing in people and building strong teams to support growth and diversification of the business. 

The Group’s cash position remained strong at £24.4m (2025: £25.4m). The decrease in cash in the year was driven by the purchase of shares in GCP Infra, amounting to £1.4m. The reduction therefore reflects a balance sheet reallocation rather than an operating cash outflow. Excluding this investment activity, the Group would have generated net cash inflow during the year.

Other key performance indicators
 
The Directors do not consider that there are any other key performance indicators to the Group.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

Responsible investing

Gravis believes that integrating environmental, social and governance considerations into its own corporate processes and its investment management processes helps create a successful and sustainable business over the long-term and supports the Group’s investment track record by supporting businesses that deliver sustainable environmental and social impacts. 

Gravis operates a Responsible Investment Committee which comprises senior personnel who oversee all ESG matters on behalf of the Board. The Responsible Investment policy is integrated into investment management processes and incorporates pre-investment, active ownership and governance processes. The Responsible Investment policy can be found at www.graviscapital.com/responsible-investing.

Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI)

Gravis has been a signatory to the Principles for Responsible Investment (“PRI”) since 2019. The PRI, established in 2006, is a global collaborative network of investors working together to put the six Principles for Responsible Investment into practice.

Gravis recognises that applying these principles better aligns investment activities with the broader interests of society and is committed to their adoption and implementation. The Group is particularly focused on the development of products to help accelerate the transition to net zero. This transition represents a significant transformation in the infrastructure sector, particularly in the way energy is generated and used, the use of natural resources and the requirement to capture and store carbon.

UN Global Compact

Gravis is proud to be a participant in the UN Global Compact Network and aims to operate within the principles set out in the UN Global Compact with reference to human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption practices. As part of this commitment, Gravis does not procure services from, nor invest in, businesses that make use of slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, compulsory labour or harmful child labour. Gravis works with other organisations that share the Group’s commitment to accelerating sustainability efforts where possible.

Sustainable Development Goals

Gravis supports the Sustainable Development Goals, as outlined by the United Nations. The Group’s approach to governance, labour and health and safety makes a positive contribution to the employees, customers, suppliers and local communities in which the Group operates.  In addition, the Group’s funds positively contribute to the provision of assets in the areas of climate change, mitigation and adaption, energy transition, critical infrastructure, affordable living, social housing, education and healthcare.

B Corp Certification

Gravis is proud to have been awarded a B Corp certification in April 2024 and to join an international movement of c.10,900 businesses across 102 countries that meet B Corp’s high standard of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability, from supply chain to charitable giving and employee benefits, alongside a commitment to goals that go beyond shareholder value. As a certified B Corp, Gravis is part of a community of like-minded businesses that engage with each other to share ideas and best practice. This formalises our sustainable and long-term business model, as well as providing a framework to ensure the Group continues to operate in accordance with the highest ESG standards.

Diversity and Employee Wellbeing

In 2022, Gravis introduced a formal diversity policy, as well as diversity and equality training for all employees. The Group carries out annual anonymous questionnaires to help understand the makeup of its workforce and to monitor data over time as it strives for improvement in diversity, equality and inclusion. Just under half the Group’s staff members are female, and c.40% of senior management positions are held by female employees. The Company’s board of directors has seven members, all of which are male. Gravis recognises that gender diversity is a particular challenge in the investment industry, and that concerted and collaborative effort is required to make the financial services sector more attractive for women at all levels of seniority. As such, Gravis is a supporter of the Young Women Into Finance Scholarship Program, a not-for-profit social organisation dedicated to the eradication of gender bias for new graduates entering the finance industry. This year, the Group facilitated one paid internship for a student as part of the program. The intern worked across various teams at Gravis. 

Gravis also participated in the 10,000 Black Interns program this year for the third year, which offers paid internship opportunities across more than 25 sectors, along with training and development opportunities. One paid internship was offered as part of the program, with the individual working across various functions within the Group. 

The health, safety and wellbeing of employees is one of Gravis’ main priorities. The Group invests in professional development and supports employee health and wellbeing. In 2022, Gravis was awarded an ‘Investors in People’ accreditation, which assesses organisational performance in areas such as employee engagement, communication, culture and work practices. The Group continued its work with Investors in People during the year, and following a reassessment, achieved the silver accreditation. The Group is committed to implementing further improvements based on the feedback received and is working towards achieving a gold accreditation at our next review planned for 2028.

For further details please refer to the Gravis Responsible Investment Report on the Company’s website.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The Group is indirectly affected by the risk of a general downturn in the economy and in the sectors in which the funds managed or advised by the Group operate, which may negatively impact on asset returns or investor sentiment, and therefore the turnover of the Group. The Group mitigates this risk by maintaining good relationships with stakeholders, employing experienced teams, its investment process and increasing the diversification of investors in funds managed and advised by Gravis.

The Group maintains a business risk register which covers investment management, portfolio management, operations, strategy and compliance. The risk register is reviewed semi-annually and approved by the Operations Committee, with any material findings reported to the Board.

The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge interest rate, foreign exchange or any other exposures given the risks posed are deemed minimal.

Directors' statement of compliance with duty to promote the success of the Group
 
The Directors of the Group have acted in accordance with their duties codified in law, which include their duty to act in the way in which they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the Group for the benefit of its members as a whole, having regard to the stakeholders and matters set out in section 172 of the Companies Act 2006.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

Financial instruments

The Group's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks including liquidity risk and credit risk. The Group's principal financial instruments comprise cash, trade debtors and trade creditors all of which arise directly from its operations.

The Directors note that the Group has significant cash reserves which are actively managed to ensure the Group has sufficient liquidity to fund its working capital requirements and mitigate the risk exposures arising from the management of the funds. In the context of the Group's financial instruments as set out in note 18 disclosure of financial risk management is not considered necessary as it is not considered to be material for the assessment of the Group's assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss. 

Qualifying third-party indemnity provisions

The Company has an insurance policy which covers Directors and Officers claims.

Greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption and energy efficiency action

The Group's greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption are as follows: 


2026
2025

Emissions resulting from the purchase of the electricity by the Group for its own use (in tonnes of CO2 equivalent)
7.43
10.78

Energy resulting from the purchase of electricity by the Group for its own use in kWh
41,983
52,071

The above emissions result from energy provision at the Group’s office premises, which is managed by the building operator. The premises in London has been awarded an ‘Excellent’ rating from BREEAM which is a gold standard in sustainability certifications. The building operator switched energy providers at the beginning of 2024, changing the energy supply from renewable to mixed fuel.

The Group offsets its emissions using a carbon offsetting scheme. Further information can be found in the Group’s Responsible Investment report on its website.

Key ratios used by the Group in assessing its energy efficiency include average energy consumption per employee (in tonnes of CO2 equivalent) - 0.14 (2025 - 0.20).

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GRAVIS CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LTD
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Gravis Capital Management Ltd (the 'parent Company') and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') for the year ended 31 March 2026, which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe 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 Group's and of the parent Company's affairs as at 31 March 2026 and of the Group's loss 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 Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 Group's or the parent 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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

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


the information given in the Group 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 Group 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 Group and the parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.


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


adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the parent Company 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 page 7, 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 is 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 Group's and the parent 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 Group or the parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GRAVIS CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LTD (CONTINUED)


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 Group financial statements.


Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. We have identified the greatest risk of a material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to relate to the timing and recognition of revenue and the override of controls by management. We have obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Company and Group operates within including both those that directly have an impact on the financial statements and more widely those for which non-compliance could have a significant impact on the Company and Group's operations and reputation. The Companies Act 2006, UK company tax law, Financial Conduct Authority regulation, employee legislation and data protection are those we have identified in this regard. Auditing standards limit the required procedures as to non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiries of those charged with governance and review of any applicable correspondence.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
 
Assessing the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatements by obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur;
 
Enquiring of management and those charged with governance as to actual and potential litigation and claims and testing of internal controls in place, where applicable, to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations;
 
Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, by identifying the laws and regulations applicable to the Company through discussions with management to ensure that no breaches have incurred that would have a reputational, operational or financial impact on the Company;
 
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with Governance;
 
Performing audit work over the risk of timing and recognition of income, including testing of internal controls over income reconciliation and recognition, analytical procedures to ensure completeness and substantive procedures to ensure accuracy, based on the requirements of accounting standards; and
 
Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business, and performing analytical procedures to identify any significant unusual or unexpected transactions or relationships.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

1.


General information

Gravis Capital Management Ltd is a private company, limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales, registration number 10471852. The registered office address is 24 Savile Row, London, W1S 2ES.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).

The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.

These financial statements are rounded to the nearest £'000 unless otherwise stated.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

  
2.2

Compliance with accounting standards

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102. There were no material departures from that standard.

  
2.3

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

 
2.4

Going concern

These Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern basis of preparation, the Directors have taken into account the key risks of the business. In doing so the Directors have considered the Group’s business model and availability of cash resources. The Group principally earns income from the provision of investment management and advisory services, linked directly to the value of managed assets. Although the value of managed assets may fluctuate as a result of the current market conditions, the Directors are comfortable that the Group has sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these Financial Statements and consider it appropriate to prepare the Financial Statements on a going concern basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.5

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

Transactions and balances

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

At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured 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 or loss.

  
2.6

Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of value added tax. Revenue consists of advisory fees, management fees, arrangement fees, share placement fees and other ad hoc amounts.

Revenue from advisory and management fees are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are provided. Income earned not invoiced is included within accrued income.

Arrangement and share placement fees are one off transactions linked to the arrangement of loans and commission received from attracting new subscribers to shares. Revenue of this nature is recognised upon completion of each transaction. 

Outstanding payments at the year end are included within trade debtors.

 
2.7

Operating leases: the Group as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.

 
2.8

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.9

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Group operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Group has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Group in independently administered funds.

 
2.10

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and the Group operate and generate income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits;
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.11

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over its useful economic life.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.

GRAVIS CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LTD
 

 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.12

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets 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 Group 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.

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.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Short-term leasehold property
-
10%
Office equipment
-
20%
Other fixed assets
-
25%

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 profit or loss.

 
2.13

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

Investments in listed company shares are remeasured to market value at each balance sheet date. Gains and losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss for the period.

 
2.14

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

 
2.15

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.


 
2.16

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.17

Financial instruments

The Group has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the Group's Balance Sheet when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusted for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss) and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, 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.

Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other debtors due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

Impairment of financial assets

At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. 

Financial assets are impaired when events, subsequent to their initial recognition, indicate the estimated future cash flows derived from the financial asset(s) have been adversely impacted. The impairment loss will be the difference between the current carrying amount and the present value of the future cash flows at the asset(s) original effective interest rate.

If there is a favourable change in relation to the events surrounding the impairment loss then the impairment can be reviewed for possible reversal. The reversal will not cause the current carrying amount to exceed the original carrying amount had the impairment not been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

Basic financial liabilities

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 Group after the deduction of all its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other creditors, accruals, bank loans, other loans and loans due to fellow group companies are initially measured at their transaction price (adjusting for transaction costs except in the initial measurement of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss). When this constitutes a financing transaction, whereby the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest, discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

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

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the payment is due within one year. If not, they represent non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are initially

recognised at their transaction price and subsequently are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

Derecognition of financial instruments

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised when their contractual right to future cash flow expire, or are settled, or when the Group transfers the asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another party. If significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained after the transfer to another party, then the Group will continue to recognise the value of the portion of the risks and rewards retained.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Group's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.


3.


Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing these financial statements, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions which affect expected reported income, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
