1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Pop Fm Ltd 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.

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

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company 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.

Significant judgements and estimates

In the application of the company's accounting policies, the director is 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.

There are no significant judgements or estimates involved in the preparation of the financial statements.

Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales-related taxes. Revenue is recognised when goods or services are provided to customers, and the amount can be reliably measured.

Goodwill

Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business, is being amortised evenly over the estimated useful life of five years.

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.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.Such cost included costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets less their estimated residual value over their expected useful lives, on the following basis:

Plant & machinery

20% on Reducing Balance

Fixtures fittings and equipment

20% on Reducing Balance

Leasehold improvements

20% on Reducing Balance

Inventories

Inventories comprise food and beverage stocks held for use in preparing meals for sale, together with packaging and other consumable supplies. They are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis and comprises the purchase price, net of trade discounts and rebates, plus any directly attributable costs of bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Food and beverage stocks turn over rapidly and are replenished continuously, so cost is measured by reference to purchase prices ruling at the balance sheet date. Packaging and consumables bought in bulk are carried at the cost of the consignment from which the remaining quantity is drawn.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are written down where they are damaged, past their use-by date, or, in the case of packaging and consumables, no longer expected to be used. Write-downs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they arise.

The carrying amount of inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.

Financial instruments

Basic financial assets and liabilities, which include debtors, creditors, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 year 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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

11.	POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

On 19 March 2026 the company granted a debenture in favour of Barclays Security Trustee Limited, incorporating a fixed charge and a floating charge over the whole of the company's property and undertaking together with a negative pledge, in connection with a banking facility with Barclays Bank PLC. The charge secures borrowings of up to £1,800,000. To the extent the charge secures borrowings of other group companies, the company has guaranteed those borrowings up to the value of the assets charged.

The facility and related security were entered into after the reporting date and do not affect the amounts recognised in these financial statements as at 31 October 2025. The directors consider this to be a non-adjusting event after the reporting period.

Apart from the above, no other significant events have occurred between the reporting date, 31 October 2025, and the date the financial statements were authorised for issue that would require adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

12.	ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY

The company's immediate parent is Maden Group Ltd, incorporated in England and Wales. The ultimate controlling parties are the shareholders of Maden Group Ltd by virtue of their holding in the parent company.

The largest and smallest group in which the results of the company are consolidated is that headed by Maden Group Ltd which is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The consolidated financial statements of this company are available to the public and may be obtained from the company's registered office being 1 Kings Avenue, London, United Kingdom, N21 3NA.

13.	COMPARATIVES

The balances presented for the prior year in the comparative financial statements are unaudited, as the company was not required to have its financial statements audited for that year.
