The Production Guild of Great Britain

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

Going concern

The company had net assets at 31 March 2026 of £111,589, including cash at bank of £218,903.

The directors, together with senior management, have considered the potential impact of the current economic environment on the company and its members, taking into account industry conditions both domestically and internationally. They remain confident that the company is well-positioned to manage its current challenges.

The company’s reserves are sufficient to meet its working capital requirements for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.

Having made enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which the directors believe to be appropriate.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in the ordinary course of the company's activities, in respect of membership subscriptions. Turnover is shown net of value added tax, rebates and discounts.

The company recognises revenue from subscriptions over the period to which the membership relates.

Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated into the respective functional currency of the entity at the rates prevailing on the reporting period date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate on the date when the fair value is re-measured.

Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Investments

Investments in equity shares which are publicly traded or where the fair value can be measured reliably are initially measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Interest income on debt securities, where applicable, is recognised in income using the effective interest method. Dividends on equity securities are recognised in income when receivable.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

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.
