Notes to the Accounts

For the year ended 31 December 2025

 

1     General Information

 

Zestia Limited is a private company limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006. The address of the registered office is given on the Company Information page.

 

2     Accounting policies

 

2.1     Basis of Preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (“FRS 102”), the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime, and under the historical cost convention. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

 

The financial statements have been prepared for the year ended 31 December 2025.The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

 

The company is exempt from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements as it is a wholly owned subsidiary and its immediate parent, Bidco Koru Limited, is incorporated in the United Kingdom.

 

2.2     Going concern

The company is profit making, has strong monthly recurring revenues and has net assets at the year end. It also has a positive cash position and is forecast to continue in this position for the foreseeable future. On this basis, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has reasonable resources to remain in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore, they continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing the annual report and financial statements.

 

2.3     Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the rendering of software as a service. Turnover from the rendering of software as a service is recognised by reference to the ongoing contract status of each customer, annual billed customers are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the period of the billing cycle and monthly customers are recognised at the end of each monthly billing cycle.

Company No. 06418281

 

2.4     Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of fixed assets and goodwill is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:

 

Computer Equipment

-

33.33% straight line

 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

 

2.5     Intangible assets - development costs

Intangible assets are recognised from the development phase of a project if and only if certain specific criteria are met in order to demonstrate the asset will generate probable future economic benefits and that its cost can be reliably measured. The capitalised development costs are amortised on a straight line basis over five years.

 

2.6     Investments

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

 

2.7     Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment losses. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

 

2.8     Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at transaction price. Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.

 

2.9     Taxation

A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period.

 

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Company No. 06418281

 

2.10     Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency transactions are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Any differences are taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

 

2.11     Operating leases: the company as lessee

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense 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.

 

2.12     Retirement benefits

For defined contribution schemes the amount charged to profit and loss is the contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments.

 

2.13     Employee benefits

The cost of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of fixed assets. The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.

 

2.14     Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the fair value of proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

 

2.15     Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial instruments and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.

 

2.16     Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements management are required to make judgements about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events which are expected to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are;

 

internally generated intangibles assets, amortisation of fixed assets and goodwill, the impairment of investments in subsidiaries and the recoverability of group debtors.
