Notes to the Accounts
For the year ended 31 December 2025
1 General Information
Topco Koru Limited is a private company limited by shares, incorporated in
2 Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared for the year ended 31 December 2025.
2.2 Parent company disclosure exemptions
Under FRS 102, the following disclosure exemptions have been adopted:
• | No cash flow statement has been prepared for the parent company |
• | Disclosures in respect of parent company's financial instruments and aggregate remuneration of key management have not been included as they would be the same as the group as a whole. |
2.3 Going Concern
The main trading company, Zestia Limited, is profit making, has strong monthly recurring revenues and has net assets at the year end. It also has a net positive cash position and is forecast to continue in this position for the foreseeable future. The debt and accrued interest is not due to be paid until July 2030, however loan note interest is being paid when sufficient cash reserves are available. On this basis, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has reasonable resources to remain in operational existence for the foreseeable future and not less than 12 months from signing. Therefore, they continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing the annual report and financial statements.
2.4 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements present the results of Topco Koru Limited and its subsidiaries (“Group”) as if they were one entity. Intercompany balances between group companies have been 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 and liabilities have been recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date on which control was obtained.
TOPCO KORU LIMITED | Company No. 12717398 |
2.5 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.
2.6 Tangible fixed assets
Computer Equipment | - |
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.
2.7 Intangible assets - development costs
2.8
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
2.9 Business combinations and goodwill
Estimates of the useful economic life of goodwill are based on a variety of factors such as the expected use of the acquired business and its technology, assumptions that market participants would consider in respect of similar businesses and the expected useful life of the customer base.
Under FRS102, intangible assets have not been recognised separately from goodwill as the following three conditions have not been satisfied:
TOPCO KORU LIMITED | Company No. 12717398 |
• | the recognition criteria set out in paragraph 18.4 are met (i.e. it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably); |
• | the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and |
• | the intangible asset is separable (i.e. capable of being separated or divided from the entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged either individually or together with a related contract, asset or liability). |
2.10 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.
2.11 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.
2.12 Financial liabilities
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. Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and other similar expenses
2.13 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.
2.14 Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of grant by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted using Black-Scholes pricing model. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the estimate of shares that will eventually vest. A corresponding adjustment is made to the equity.
TOPCO KORU LIMITED | Company No. 12717398 |
The expense in relation to options over the parent company's shares granted to employees of a subsidiary is recognised by the company as a capital contribution, and presented as an increase in the company's investment in the subsidiary.
2.15 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.
2.16 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.
2.17 Employee benefits
2.18 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial instruments and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks
2.19 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 intangible assets, amortisation of fixed assets and goodwill, the impairment of investments and the carrying value of goodwill and the recoverability of group debtors.
