Notes to the Financial Statements
Year ended 31st December 2025
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Unit 4, Galaxy House, 32 Leonard Street, London, EC2A 4LZ. The principal activity of the company during the year was that of shipping agents .
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
The company has made a net loss before tax of £77,727 and trading in the first half of the current year has been slow so the directors have made the difficult decision to cease trading on 30th September 2026. The company currently doesn’t have the adequate resources to continue trading and has recently received a loan from its parent company to assist with creditors. Although the company is still trading in respect of income, the levels have become to small to cover the costs of running the company. Although the company is not adopting the going concern for these accounts the amounts included this year are still considered true and fair in respect of reporting.
Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents the value of services provided during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax. Revenue is recognised when the agreed services have been shipped and then the corresponding invoices are produced and sent to the customers.
Taxation
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency, by applying the spot exchange rate as at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date, with any gains or losses being taken to the profit and loss account.
Tangible assets
All tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Leashold Property
-
Straight line over the period of the lease
Office Equipment
-
20% straight line
Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Defined contribution plans
The company operates defined contribution scheme for employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company. The annual contributions payable are charged to the profit and loss account.
4. Employees
The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to 1 (2024: 2 ).

8. Summary audit opinion
The auditor's report dated 14 August 2026 was unqualified , however, the auditor drew attention to the following by way of emphasis.
We draw your attention to note 3 to the financial statements which explains that the directors intend to cease trading on 30th September 2026 and therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in note 3. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
The senior statutory auditor was David Mercer FCCA , for and on behalf of Quay Business Advice Limited .
