BRITANIA LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02255021)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD 31 JANUARY 2025 TO 31 OCTOBER 2025

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Britania Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis, the directors have assessed the impact of the changing climate and see no reason for the approach to be impacted.

TURNOVER
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates using the reducing-balance method:

Plant and machinery etc - 25% and at varying rates

TAXATION
Taxation for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

DEFERRED TAX
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the period end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

FIXED ASSET INVESTMENTS
Investments in listed securities are recognised initially in the balance sheet at cost (including transaction costs). Subsequently measured at market value.
Investments in partnerships are recognised initially in the balance sheet at cost (including transaction costs). Subsequently, they are accounted for using the equity method.
Other unlisted securities are measured at cost less accumulated impairment, in the financial statements of the company.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The company enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors and loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and account receivables and payables, are initially measured at the transaction price (adjusted for transaction cost) and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangement of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.

Investments in non-derivative instruments that are equity to the issuer are measured:
- at fair value with changes recognised in the profit and loss if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably;
- at cost less impairment for all other investments

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If such evidence is identified, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the period was 3 (2025 - 3 ) .
