| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Landmark Underwriting Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| The financial statements contain information about Landmark Underwriting Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
| GOING CONCERN |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. The Company operates with profit and as of 31 December 2024 its current assets are higher than its current liabilities. The directors are confident that the Company will have sufficient funds to ensure they remain in operational existence for the foreseeable future and base their assessment on the Company's future business plans. |
| On this basis, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. However, should targets in the business plan not be met, the going concern basis used in preparing the Company's financial statements may be invalid and adjustments would have to be made to reduce the value of assets to their realisable amount and to provide for any further liabilities which may arise. The financial statements do not include any adjustment to the Company's assets or liabilities that might be necessary should this basis not continue to be appropriate. |

| TURNOVER |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| The Company acts as an agent in insurance contracts. Revenue comprises commissions an fees earned on the sale of insurance policies. Revenue is recognised when service is provided, which is at the inception of an insurance contract i.e. on the date of sale of a policy. Revenue is measured at te fair value of the consideration received or receivable, which is the amount of commission to which the Company is entitled in exchange for its services. |
| 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. |
| Estimated useful life of computer software is 2 to 3 years. |
| TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially recognized at cost and subsequently measured at cost less depreciation and any impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is recognised so as to write of the cost of assets less their residual values over their estimated useful lives on straight-line bases. Estimated useful life of computer equipment is 3 years, office furniture 4 years and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period of the rental agreement. |
| The gain or loss arising or the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the |
| sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the profit and loss account. |
| INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are initially recognised at cost and subsequently measured at cost less impairment. |

| FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
| The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and trade and other creditors, loans from banks and other parties. |
| Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contract and, as a consequence, has a legal right to receive cash. All financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. After initial measurement, the mentioned financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the profit or loss. |
| 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 objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Income Statement. |
| Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities when the Company becomes a party to the contract, as consequence it has legal obligation to deliver cash or exchange financial assets at terms which are unfavourable to the Company. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. |
| A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss. |
| Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |

| TAXATION |
| Taxation for the period 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 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. |
| FOREIGN CURRENCIES |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| 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. |

| SIGNIFICANT JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES |
| Estimates and judgement are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under certain circumstances. |
| The Company, thus, makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. |
| There were no major estimates and assumptions made during the year that have a significant risk of causing material adjustments to the carrying amount of the Company's assets and liabilities within the next financial year. |
