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


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

E.A. Combs Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements and going concern
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" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Since the year end, the company ceased trading and made the majority of its employees redundant. The remaining employee was made redundant shortly after the year end. The directors intend to liquidate the company following the realisation of its remaining stock and settlement of its liabilities.

Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a break-up basis. Under this basis, assets are stated at their estimated realisable values and liabilities include provisions for all known and anticipated costs associated with the cessation of trading and liquidation of the company.

Revenue recognition
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of clocks and other timing devices, excluding value added tax.

Revenue is recognised when goods are delivered to the customer, such that the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to them.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on cost
Office equipment - 33% on cost and 20% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell, after making due allowance for impairment of obsolete or slow moving items.

Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Cost includes the purchase price, including taxes and duties, transport and handling directly attributable to bringing the stock to its present location and condition.

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 or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

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 balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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.
