The financial statements have been prepared and delivered in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

In accordance with Section 444 of the Companies Act 2006, the Income Statement has not been delivered.

The financial statements were approved by the director and authorised for issue on 25 September 2026 and were signed by:

Mr J K V White - Director

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Portway Domestic Appliances Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number, registered office address and business address can be found on the company information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

2.	STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the director believes that no material uncertainties exist and the company is still in a stable position. The director has considered the level of reserves held and the expected level of income and expenditure for a period of twelve months from authorising these financial statements.

The bank overdraft facility has been renewed to 30 October 2026 and the director has no reason to doubt that the company's bankers will not continue to support the company beyond that date. The company also has the continued support of it's parent company Ken White Holdings Limited.

Significant judgements and estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.

The following accounting policies have been applied.

Turnover

Turnover represents net invoiced sales of domestic appliances, excluding value added tax and is reduced for estimated customer returns and sales settlement discounts.

Turnover is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied:-

1) the company has transferred to the customer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;

2) the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;

3) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; and

4) the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Specifically, turnover is recognised when the domestic appliances are delivered to the customer and legal title is passed.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in June 2006 is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses if any.

This has been amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years and ended during 2016.

Website costs

Website development, design and content costs are capitalised due to the website having the capability to be used for direct selling and is classified as an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance.

Website costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and are amortised, using the straight line method, over its appropriate useful life of 3 years.

Tangible fixed assets

Long leasehold building is held and used in the company's own activities for supply of goods or for administrative purposes and is stated in the statement of financial position at latest valuation less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation on this building is charged to the income statement so as to write off its value less residual value, over the estimated useful life, being the remaining lease term.

Fixtures and fittings, plant and motor vehicles and computer equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is charged to the income statement so as to write off their value less residual value, over the estimated useful lives, using the straight line method, with fixtures and fittings at 10%, 15% and 25%, plant and motor vehicles at 20% and computer equipment at 33%.

At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of it's property, fixtures and fittings, plant and motor vehicles and computer equipment to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.

Stocks

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is ascertained by the review of post balance sheet selling prices.

Cost is ascertained on a First In First Out basis from the invoiced amount charged by suppliers.

The amount of any write-downs of stocks to estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell and all losses of stocks are recognised as an expense in the period in which the write-down or loss occurs.

Financial instruments

Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting its liabilities.

Taxation

Taxation expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. The taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the income statement 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 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 deductible temporary 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 laws enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Current or deferred tax for the year is recognised in the income statement, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised at their fair value at the inception of the hire purchase contract or finance lease in the statement of financial position when all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred to the company.

Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The corresponding liability of the future payments to the lessor is recognised in the statement of financial position as a hire purchase or finance lease obligation.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to the income statement over the relevant period.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the company are classified as operating leases. Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the income statement as incurred.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the scheme are recognised as an expense as incurred. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independent administered fund.

Trade and other debtors

Short term trade and other debtors are measured at transaction value less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within current liabilities.

Trade and other creditors

Short-term trade and other creditors are measured at transaction value. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
