Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These abridged financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).
Basis of preparation
These abridged financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
The financial statements have been prepared in sterling which is the functioning currency of the company. Monetary amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.
Preparation of consolidated financial statements
In the opinion of the directors, the company and its subsidiary undertaking comprise a small group. The company has therefore taken advantage of the exemption provided by section 383 of the Companies Act 2006 not to produce group accounts.
Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the company qualifies as a small company.

Notes to the Unaudited Abridged Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Going concern
At the year end, the company had net liabilities of £817 (2024: net assets of £228,843). During the financial year, the directors took cost-cutting measures in response to the financial performance of the business. Post year end the company has been profitable and the directors continue to closely monitor the costs within the business.
The directors have taken the future pipeline and forecasts into consideration, and as a result have a reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The directors believe that the company will have sufficient funds to settle all of its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from signing the accounts. Thus, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounts in preparing the financial statements.
Revenue recognition
Turnover represents revenue due from the normal activities of the business to the extent that the seller obtains
the right to consideration in exchange for its performance of those activities, exclusive of VAT.
The revenue recognised is measured by reference to the amounts likely to be chargeable to clients, less a
suitable allowance to recognise the uncertainties remaining in the completion of obligations.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change
attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised
directly in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable
income.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Goodwill
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of an entity represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the company’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the entity recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is held in the currency of the acquired entity and revalued to the closing rate at each reporting period date. Goodwill is amortised over its useful life, which shall not exceed ten years if a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made.
Amortisation
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:
|
Asset class |
Amortisation method and rate |
|
Goodwill |
Straight line 10% |
Stocks
Work in progress is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value and represents bought in costs and direct staff costs appropriate to the stage of completion of each project.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Leases
Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
