STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
The Company is required by the Companies Act to set out in this report, a fair review of the business of the Company during the financial year ended 30 June 2025, and its position at the end of the year along with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company. This review is prepared solely to provide additional information to shareholders to assess the Company's strategies and the potential for those strategies to succeed, and the business review should not be relied upon by any other party or for any other purpose.
The directors are satisfied with the Company's performance during the year. The directors continue to scrutinise discretionary spending. The Company sought to match marketing spend to the size of the market. The directors expect the level of expenditure to increase in 2026 as the Group looks to capitalise on consumer demand and due to increased competition from other destinations.
The key performance indicators used by the directors to monitor the progress of the Company are set out below:-

Monthly management accounts including full year forecasts are reviewed against budgets and prior years to monitor the business performance and to highlight required actions as appropriate.
Principal risks and uncertainties
|
The following risk factors may affect the Company's operating results and its financial position. The risk factors described below are those which the directors believe are potentially significant but should not be regarded as a complete and comprehensive statement of all potential risk and uncertainties facing the Company. The directors do not feel that the risks in 2026 will be much different to those that were prevalent in 2025. The Company is monitoring the situation and will take all necessary actions to try and protect the Company's immediate trading performance and long-term position.
Credit risk
Due to the nature of the Company's business, whereby it provides services to group companies, credit risk is considered to be low.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Principal risks and uncertainties (continued)
Liquidity risk
The objective of the Company in managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it can meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. The Company expects to meet its financial obligations through operating cash flows. However, if due to unusual circumstances this was insufficient, the Company could draw on support from within the wider group.
Foreign exchange rate exposure
The functional currency of the Company is Sterling, however the Company undertakes transactions with suppliers in US Dollars. Consequently the Company is at risk to the extent that the Pound Sterling may weaken against the United States Dollar to which the Company needs to settle its costs. This risk is mitigated by other group members having prudent forward exchange contracts in place to hedge against exchange rate fluctuations.
Technology risk
The Company is heavily reliant on the uninterrupted operation of its IT systems and website. These systems are vulnerable to power loss, fire, computer viruses and other events. Loss of these systems would impair the ability of the Company to carry on its business effectively. The Company has made arrangements to mitigate this risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is considered to be less of an issue for the Company as it is not reliant upon receiving interest in order to continue trading and also because it does not have any loans susceptible to changes in interest rates. The Company finances its operations through retained profits.
The levels of business on the books for 2026 departures and beyond, together with the ongoing development of the existing Sandals and Beaches resorts, leads the directors to believe that the Company will continue to grow.
This report was approved by the board on 2 September 2025 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025.
Directors' responsibilities statement
|
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, Directors' Report and the financial statements, in accordance with applicable law.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the UK.
Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether they have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the UK, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
∙assess the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern; and
∙use the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Company and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements and other information included in Directors' Reports may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
The Company's principal activity continued to be the marketing and promotion of the Sandals and Beaches brands to the UK and European markets for package tours and hotel accommodation.
The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £399,029 (2024 - £300,311).
The total dividends distributed for the year ended 30 June 2025 amounted to £Nil (2024 - £400,000).

UNIQUE VACATIONS (U.K.) LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNIQUE VACATIONS (U.K.) LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Unique Vacations (U.K.) Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025 which comprise the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies set out on pages 15 - 23. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the United Kingdom.
In our opinion the financial statements:
∙give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 30 June 2025 and of its profit for the year then ended;
∙have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the United Kingdom; and
∙have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.
Conclusions relating to going concern
|
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors' assessment of the Company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included:
We have confirmed that the Company continues to receive the backing and support of its parent company and larger group. As part of this evaluation, we have also sought comfort that the group which the Company is a part of can continue as a going concern and has sufficient reserves to continue in business for the forseeable future. We have also confirmed that the directors' assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern covers a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements and that there have been no significant events that could affect the business since year-end.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNIQUE VACATIONS (U.K.) LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our auditors' report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
|
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
∙adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
∙the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
∙certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
∙we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement on page 3, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

UNIQUE VACATIONS (U.K.) LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF UNIQUE VACATIONS (U.K.) LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
- We exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit;
- We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the deliberate override of internal control;
- We obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control;
- We evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made;
- We assess the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business;
- We review the scope of the Company's compliance with The Package and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 ("PTRs") and sample test relevant documentation to assess this and the effectiveness of its control environment;
- We request and review the minutes of management meetings, and assess any matters identified not already provided for or disclosed that may materially impact the financial statements;
- We review the Company's relationships with related parties and other group companies, identifying and disclosing transactions during the year and balances at year-end with such parties.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors' report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1.Accounting policies
In assessing the Company's going concern position for the year ended 30 June 2025, the directors have considered the Company's cash flows, liquidity and business activities, including forecasts and budgets. The Company is a trading subsidiary of the group headed up by the ultimate parent company and has net current assets as at 30 June 2025. As a result of its business model, the Company is reliant on the continued financial support of the group and it has confirmed with Unique Vacations Inc, the ultimate controlling party, its intention to support the Company for a period of at least 12 months after these financial statements are signed.
In making this assessment, the directors have considered the potential impact of the current economic climate on the cash flows and liquidity of the Company over the period to 30 September 2026.
The assessment reflects the current measures put in place by the Company to preserve cash whilst dealing with current economic pressures on consumers and the value of Sterling.
Having completed these assessments, the directors' have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the next 12 months. For these reasons and the continued financial support received from Unique Vacations Inc, they continue to adopt a going concern basis for the preparation of the financial statements. Accordingly these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amount or classification of assets and liabilities that would result if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

1.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
|
Revenue and expense recognition
|
Revenue represents the amounts receivable by the Company for marketing support services which are provided to group companies. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the Company's contracts with customers, excluding discounts, rebates and other sales taxes. Revenue is recognised as the performance obligations are satisfied.
Nature of goods and services
Marketing support revenue, net of discounts, includes revenue earned primarily from group companies for marketing services provided in the UK. The Company's performance obligations under these contracts are to provide marketing directed at UK consumers for the Sandals, Beaches and Grand Pineapple Resort brands in exchange for the invoiced transaction price. The Company engages third parties to fulfill obligations to group companies, but retains the ultimate risks of fulfilment and generally has discretion to select the acceptable advertisement and absorbs the risk of cost fluctuations. The Company satisfies the performance obligations and recognises revenue pro-rata over the service period.
Payment Terms and Deferred Revenue
Payment terms and cancellation policies are broadly standard.
Administrative expenses
Administration costs include marketing costs, employee costs, office expenses, professional services and other administrative costs. Marketing costs include media advertising, brochure production, direct mail costs, promotional expenses, search engine marketing and other costs that support the ongoing development of the Company's brand and customer database. Marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Television advertising and exhibition costs are deferred until they take place. Office expenses include rent expense, utility costs, office supplies and telecommunication costs. Professional service fees include costs for accounting services, legal services and information technology consulting services. Other administrative costs include corporate insurance, postage and other sundry expenses. Employee costs, office expenses, professional service fees and other administrative expenses are expensed as incurred. Rent is recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Total administrative expenses for the periods ended 30 June 2025 and 30 June 2024 were £6.9million, and £6.8million, respectively.
The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Company does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1.Accounting policies (continued)
In preparing the financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for:
∙exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for future productive use, which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on those foreign currency borrowings;
∙exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks; and
∙exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to foreign operations for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognised initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.
For the purposes of presenting these financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated into pounds using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (and attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

Short-term and other long-term employee benefits
|
A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave in the period the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.
Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.
Liabilities recognised in respect of other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.
Defined contribution pension plan
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss and Other Comprehensive Income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Statement of Financial Position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.
Income 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 ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

1.Accounting policies (continued)
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period 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 liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
|
|
(iii) Current and deferred tax for the year
|
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Property, plant and equipment
|
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.
Depreciation is provided on all other items of property, plant and equipment so as to write off their carrying value over their expected useful economic lives. It is provided at the following range:
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
|
Intangible assets acquired separately
|
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short-term, highly liquid investments maturing within 90 days from the date of acquisition that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
In the presentation of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents also include bank overdrafts. Any such overdrafts are shown within borrowings under ‘current liabilities’ on the Statement of Financial Position.

1.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when an entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, loans and derivative financial instruments. Those relevant to the Company are trade and other receivables, which are recorded at their nominal amount less an allowance for any doubtful debts, and cash and cash equivalents which are also recorded at their nominal amount. These financial assets are classified as loans and receivables and so are carried at amortised cost. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the assets are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
Financial liabilities include trade and other payables, accruals, finance debt and derivative instruments. Those relevant to the Company are trade and other payables and accruals which are stated at their nominal value. These financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value and are then subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains and losses arising on the repurchase, settlement or cancellation of liabilities are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received net of direct issue costs.
All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments
|
|
(i) Classification as debt or equity
|
Debt and equity instruments issued by an entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by an entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Repurchase of the Company's own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company's own equity instruments.
|
|
(iii) Financial liabilities
|
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL").
However, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for derecognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies, financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company, and commitments issued by the Company to provide a loan at below-market interest rate are measured in accordance with the specific accounting policies set out below.
Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost
Financial liabilities that are not (i) contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination, (ii) held for trading, or (iii) designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost of a financial liability.

Foreign exchange gains and losses
For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based on the amortised cost of the instruments. These foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in the 'finance income' or 'finance expense' line item, for gains and losses respectively, in profit or loss for financial liabilities that are not part of a designated hedging relationship.
The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognised in profit or loss for financial liabilities that are not part of a designated hedging relationship.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company's obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
Interest income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and Other Comprehensive Income using the effective interest method.
Dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. In the case of interim dividends to equity shareholders, this is when declared by the directors. In the case of final dividends, this is when approved by the shareholders at the AGM.

IFRS S1 "General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information" and IFRS S2 "Climate-related Disclosures" were issued in June 2023 and require entities to disclose information about their sustainability and climate related risks and opportunities. IFRS S1 and S2 are effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024, however the implementation of this is subject to local regulation. A Technical Advisory Committee in the UK has recommended endorsement of both standards, with some minor amendments, however the UK Government is still consulting on these recommendations.
IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements" was issued on 9 April 2024 and includes new requirements for presentation and disclosure within the financial statements, with a focus on the income statement. IFRS 18 will be effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and the Company does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statements besides the new disclosures required.
IFRS 19 "Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures" was issued on 9 May 2024 and permits some subsidiaries of multinational groups to apply IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosure requirements. IFRS 19 will be effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and the Company does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

Accounting estimates and judgments
|
5.1 Judgment
Amortisation rates
The directors have made judgements when determining the useful economic life of goodwill and other intangible assets. Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the value of the assets over the life that economic benefit is expected to flow.
Impairment
At the period end, the directors have considered whether there is any indication that intangible assets, property, plant and equipment are impaired and have conducted an impairment review in respect of those assets. Management have utilised discounted cashflow forecasts to calculate a value in use in respect of these assets and have concluded that no impairment indicators exist and therefore no impairment charge is required in the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025.
|
|
5.2 Estimates and assumptions
|
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.
