Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Sectorlight Marketing Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 13435326 . The registered office is Floor 1, 64-65 Cowcross Street, London, EC1M 6EG. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Agency Accelerators Limited, a company incorporated in England & Wales.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.
The Company has one subsidiary undertaking, SL MENA FZ-LLC, incorporated in the United Arab Emirates. In accordance with section 399 of the Companies Act 2006, the Company is not required to prepare consolidated financial statements, as the group headed by the Company qualifies as a small group and is not an ineligible group under section 384 of the Companies Act 2006. Accordingly, these financial statements present information about the Company as an individual undertaking and not about its group.
2.2. Going Concern Disclosure
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The company has net liabilities of £2,892,797 as at 31 December 2025 and made a loss after taxation of £375,884 during the year. The company is reliant upon the continued financial support of its parent company, Agency Accelerators Limited, and their shareholders to meet its liabilities as they fall due.
The company has an intercompany loan outstanding to Agency Accelerators Limited of £2,630,464 as at 31 December 2025, the repayment of which is dependent upon the continued support of the parent company. The company also has amounts outstanding to group undertakings of £108,074 as at 31 December 2025. In addition, the company acts as guarantor in respect of a third-party lending facility entered into by Agency Accelerators Limited, which was originally repayable by 31 December 2025 and has since been extended to 30 September 2028.
The directors have received confirmation from Agency Accelerators Limited that it will continue to provide financial support to the company for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. This confirmation encompasses the continued deferral of the intercompany loan, the amounts outstanding to group undertakings, and the company's obligations as guarantor of the Agency Accelerators Limited lending facility. The directors have also considered the current and projected trading performance of the company and are satisfied that, with this support in place, the company will be able to meet its obligations as they fall due for the foreseeable future.
Accordingly, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. However, these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, to continue realising its assets and discharging its liabilities in the normal course of business.
2.3. Turnover
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts, rebates, value added taxes and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Rendering of services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
  • the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
  • it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the contract;
  • the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be reliably measured; and
  • the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.
2.4. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Goodwill
Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the separable net assets. It is amortised to profit and loss account over its estimated economic life of 10 years.

Page 4
2.5. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Computer Equipment over three years on a straight-line basis.
2.6. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to profit and loss account as incurred.
2.7. Foreign Currencies
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non­ monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-­monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the Profit and Loss Account within 'Interest payable and similar expenses'.
2.8. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the Profit and Loss Account because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised directly in equity, in which case current and deferred tax are recognised directly in equity respectively.

The investment represents the cost of the company's wholly-owned subsidiary, SL MENA FZ-LLC, a company incorporated in United Arab Emirates.
