The directors of the company have elected not to include a copy of the profit and loss account within the financial statements.true

Winfield Holdings Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is C/o PM+M, New Century House, Greenbank Technology Park, Challenge Way, Blackburn, Lancashire, BB1 5QB.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

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

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

When the company acts as a lessor, a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee, either at the end of the lease term or for the major part of the economic life of the asset. All other leases are classified as operating leases. If an arrangement contains both lease and non-lease components, the company allocates the consideration in the contract to the two elements.

Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term.

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was:

The fair value of the investment property has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out at the year end by the directors.

Within retained profits is an amount of £408,530 (2025 - £339,298) relating to non-distributable reserves, being the net effect of fair value gains and losses on investment properties. Both figures reported are net of deferred tax at 25%.

At the balance sheet date, there was an amount due from Wellington Downe Limited of £1,472,395 (2025 - £1,464,759). A provision of £1,072,395 (2025 - £1,067,000) has been made against this loan. The amount included in debtors is £400,000 (2025 - £397,759).

Further amounts were due from related parties comprising £5,070 (2025: £5,070) from Timbuktu Limited, £625 (2025: £625) from Open Air Limited, £15,392 (2025: £330) from Eastwell Ventures Limited and £2,602 (2025: £nil) from Rockchase Limited. The amounts due from Timbuktu Limited and Open Air Limited have been fully provided for and the amount included in debtors is nil.

Amounts due to subsidiary undertakings at the year end totalled £52,852 (2025: £63,469) due to Willowcrest Limited and £2,070,269 (2025: £58,039) due from Winfields Limited. The amount due from Winfields Limited has been fully provided for and the amount included in debtors is nil.

Dividends totalling £0 (2025 - £0) were paid in the year in respect of shares held by the company's directors.

During the year, the company incurred an exceptional charge of £2,012,230 (2025: £nil) following the settlement of liabilities on behalf of its subsidiary undertaking, Winfield's Limited, which is in administration.

As a consequence of the subsidiary's administration, the directors determined that liabilities assumed on behalf of the subsidiary are not recoverable. The resulting loss has been recognised in the profit and loss account as an exceptional item due to its size and non-recurring nature.
