1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Letchworth Housing Investments 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.

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" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover

Turnover represents rents and dividends receivable pertaining to the year. Rent is recognised when it is due and is accrued where necessary. Dividends are recognised on the date the income is receivable by the company.

Investment property

Investment properties are stated at fair value based on the valuation performed by a professional valuer from Satchells Estate Agents. The valuer used observable market prices adjusted as necessary for any difference in the future, location or condition of the specific asset.

Although this policy is in accordance with the FRS 102, it is a departure from the general requirement of the Companies Act 2006 for all tangible assets to be depreciated. In the opinion of the directors compliance with the standard is necessary for the financial statements to give a true and fair view.

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 that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

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.

Investments

Fixed asset investments comprise of investments in equity instruments which are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised in the income statement. Fair value is based on market values provided by James Hambro & Partners LLP the Company's Investment Advisers.

Creditors

Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price.

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price less impairment losses for bad and doubtful

debts.

The deferred tax liabilities relate to amounts payable in future periods based on the carrying amount of assets in the financial statements and the corresponding indexed cost used in the computation of taxable profits.

Assets (listed shares and funds, as well as property) are expected to increase in value after purchase. When the gain is realised, tax will be due on the increase, compared to the cost or indexed cost if acquired pre December 2017. The deferred tax liabilities shown are what will be due on capital gains when they are sold in the future.

The deferred tax liability is calculated at the rates at which is it expected to unwind, which from the 1 April 2023 is 25%.
