Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented.

Management’s forecasts show that the company will continue to be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due in the next twelve months. The Board will continue to support the company as required along with any steps required to be taken by management to ensure that the company will have adequate resources to be able to continue in operational existence for at least the next twelve months.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

The company recognises revenue when:
The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;
it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity;
and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.

For service contracts spanning the end of a reporting period, and where the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised according to the percentage of completion method. The percentage completion is calculated according to the percentage of contract costs incurred by the end of the reporting period. When the outcome of a contract involving the rendering of services cannot be estimated reliably, the company recognises revenue only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, usually at the point the goods have been delivered to the customer's premises.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised based on the performance against the conditions in the grant. Grants of a revenue nature are credited to income so as to match them with the expenditure to which they relate.

Tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

The current tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the accounts and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation.

The cost of tangible fixed assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Fixtures and fittings

Straight-line over 3 years

Motor vehicles

Straight-line over 5 years

Plant and machinery

Straight-line over 4 years

Research and development costs

Research and development costs are written off to profit or loss in the year incurred.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

The cost of finished goods comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stocks are impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost and using the effective interest method if the balance is due in more than one year.

 

Insphere Ltd

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the profit and loss account over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Share capital and related costs

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. Those direct costs are charged to the share premium reserve where a premium arose on the related shares.

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Employee benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits, including the cost of any unused holiday entitlement, are recognised as an expense in the period in which the employees' services are received.

3

Staff numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company (including directors) during the year, was 18 (2024 - 20).

The bank loan is a government backed Business Bounce Back Loan, an unsecured loan with a flexible repayment term of 6 years, interest free for the first 12 months and then charged at 2.5% interest thereafter.

The other loan was for £300,000 and is secured on a fixed and floating charge over the company’s assets. The terms of the loan are such that repayment of the capital did not begin until July 2023. Based on planned quarterly repayments from that date the portion of the above balance which is not due to be repaid for at least five years is £nil (2024: £nil).
