MIDEUROPA LLP
STATEMENT OF MEMBERS' RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The members are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
The Limited Liability Partnerships, Partnerships and Groups (Accounts & Audit) Regulations 2016 require the members to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the members have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under Company law as applied to LLPs the members must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and limited liability partnership and of the profit or loss of the group and limited liability partnership for that year. In preparing these financial statements, the members are required to:
|
• |
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
|
• |
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
|
• |
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and |
|
• |
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the group and partnership will continue in business. |
The members are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the limited liability partnership and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships by the Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008, and in accordance with the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships (issued January 2017). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the limited liability partnership and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
These responsibilities are exercised by the designated members on behalf of the members.
MIDEUROPA LLP
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MIDEUROPA LLP
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of MidEuropa LLP (the ‘parent LLP’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’) for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Members’ Interests, Statement of Changes in Members’ Interests, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
• | give a true and fair view of the state of the Group's and of the parent LLP's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the Group's profit for the year then ended; |
• | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
• | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships. |
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the members' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the members with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The members are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
MIDEUROPA LLP
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MIDEUROPA LLP (CONTINUED)
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
• | adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent LLP, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
• | the parent LLP financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
• | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
Responsibilities of members
As explained more fully in the Statement of Members' Responsibilities set out on page 4, the members are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the members determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the members are responsible for assessing the group’s and the limited liability partnership's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the members either intend to liquidate the group or the limited liability partnership or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
MIDEUROPA LLP
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MIDEUROPA LLP (CONTINUED)
We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: enquiring of management concerning the Group’s policies with regards identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; enquiring of management concerning the Group’s policies detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; enquiring of management concerning the Group’s policies in relation to the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations; discussing among the engagement team where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud; and obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the Group operates in and focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the Group.
The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act 2006, The Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008 and the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
One particular focus area was the risk of fraud through management override of controls. Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; reviewing the bank statements of the Group and the parent LLP for evidence of any large or unusual activity which may be indicative of fraud; enquiring of management in relation to any potential litigation and claims; and testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments.
Another focus area was non-compliance with the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority ('the FCA'). The parent LLP was authorised and regulated by the FCA throughout the period. Our procedures to respond to risks identified include the following: reviewing correspondence between the parent LLP and the FCA, performing analytical review to detect receipts of client money and remaining alert to the possibility of accidental receipt of client monies; and discussion of regulatory matters with the appointed officers of the parent LLP.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed the laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
MIDEUROPA LLP
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MIDEUROPA LLP (CONTINUED)
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the LLP’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships by the Limited Liability Partnerships, Partnerships and Groups (Accounts & Audit) Regulations 2016. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the LLP’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the LLP, and the LLP members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

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, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', the Companies Act 2006 and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships" published in December 2021.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group managment to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 2).
General information and basis of accounting
The limited liability partnership is incorporated in the UK and registered in England and Wales under the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2000. The address of the registered office is given on the limited liability partnership information page. The nature of the limited liability partnership’s operations and its principal activities are given in the members’ report.
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies, certain items are shown at fair value.
The LLP has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the limited liability partnership and its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 31 December 2025. Intercompany transactions and balances between group entities are eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the balance sheet, the acquiree's idenitfiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that the Group obtains the right to consideration in exchange for its performance. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates, VAT and other sales tax or duty.

Accounting policies (continued) |
Members' remuneration and division of profits
In accordance with clause 11 of the LPA, members are entitled to an annual 'Fixed Allocation' of the Partnership's profit, as varied from time to time. The Partnership makes monthly cash advances to the members on account of their Fixed Allocations and may also elect to make cash advances from time to time to members on account of their potential entitlement to distributions ('Variable Profit Share'). Should the aggregate advances exceed the actual annual entitlement then this excess amount shall be repaid to the Partnership.
Fixed Allocations to members are included within members' remuneration and are charged as an expense. A member's Variable Profit Share for the period is accounted for as an 'allocation of profits'. 'Variable Profit Share' is only payable if the LLP has made any profits after payment of Fixed Allocations. Any 'unallocated' profits or losses are included within 'other reserves'.
Foreign currency
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 period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.
Taxation
The LLP is domiciled in England, United Kingdom. Under the current laws, there is no income, estate, corporation, capital gains or other taxes payable by the LLP. Any other tax liability arising on the activities of the LLP itself will be borne by the individual partners.
Corporation tax shown in the profit and loss account arises on the results of the subsidiary undertakings.
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the LLP and the Group operate and generate income.

Accounting policies (continued) |
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have orginated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:
• The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxes profits;
• Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
• Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanant differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be able to operate in the manner intended by management,
Gains or losses on disposal are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Depreciation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life. The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Fixed asset investments
Investments in subsidiaries whose market value can be measured reliably are initially measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Accumulated gains are recognised in a revaluation reserve. Where market value cannot be reliably determined, such investments are measured at cost less impairment.
Members' interests
Amounts due to members rank equally with debts due to ordinary creditors in the event of a winding up.

Financial instruments
Recognition and Measurement
The Group does not trade in financial instruments and all such instruments arise directly from operations.
All trade and other debtors are initially recognised at transaction value, as none contain, in substance, a financing transaction. Thereafter, trade and other debtors are reviewed for impairment where there is objective evidence based on observable data that the balance may be impaired. The Group does not hold collateral against its trade and other receivables so its exposure to credit risk is the net balance of trade and other debtors after allowance for impairment.
The Group’s cash holdings comprise on demand balances. All cash is held with banks with strong external credit ratings.
Trade and other creditors and accruals are initially recognised at transaction value as none represent a financing transaction. They are only derecognised when they are extinguished. As the Group only has short term receivables and payables, its net current asset position is a reasonable measure of its liquidity at any given time.
Related party transactions
The Group has taken advantage of the exemption provided for in paragraph 33.1A of FRS 102 not to disclose transactions with other members of the MidEuropa LLP group.
|
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Due to the straightforward nature of the business, no critical judgements have been made in applying the LLP's accounting policies.
There are no key accounting estimates or assumptions made that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

All turnover arose within the United Kingdom.
