NOTES TO THE COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Company Registration Number 05332938 31 March 2013

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom law and accounting standards. The principal accounting policies are described below. They have all been applied consistently throughout the year and proceeding year.

GOING CONCERN

The Directors have reviewed forecasts and budgets for the coming year, which have been drawn up with appropriate regard for the current economic environment and the particular circumstances in which the Company operates. These were prepared with reference to historical and current industry knowledge, taking into account future strategy of the Company and wider Group.

The existing operations have been generating funds to meet short-term operating cash requirements. As a result of these considerations, at the time of approving the financial statements, the Directors consider that the Company and the Group have sufficient resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. It is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial statements.  

Mr Johnson confirms that he will continue to support the Company and Group for its anticipated needs for the next two years.

As with all business forecasts, the Directors’ statement cannot guarantee that the going concern basis will remain appropriate given the inherent uncertainty about the future events.

INVESTMENTS

Investments held as fixed assets are stated at cost less provision for impairment.

TAXATION

Current tax, including UK corporation tax and foreign tax, is provided at amounts expected to be paid (or recovered) using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company's taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of gains and losses in tax assessments in years different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements.

A net deferred tax asset is regarded as recoverable and therefore recognised only when, on the basis of all available evidence, it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted.

Deferred tax is not recognised when fixed assets are revalued unless by the balance sheet date there is a binding agreement to sell the revalued assets and the gain or loss expected to arise on sale has been recognised in the financial statements. Neither is deferred tax recognised when fixed assets are sold and it is more likely than not that the taxable gain will be rolled over, being charged to tax only if and when the replacement assets are sold.

Taxation arising on disposal of a revalued asset is split between the profit and loss account and the statement of total recognised gains and losses on the basis of the tax attributable to the gain or loss recognised in each statement.

1 LOSS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR

a) The company has taken advantage of section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and consequently a profit and loss account for the company alone has not been presented.

The company's loss for the financial year was £74,919 (2012: Loss £376,359).

The company's loss for the financial year has been arrived at after charging auditor's remuneration payable to Crowe Clark Whitehill LLP for audit services to the company of £10,000 (2012: £10,000).
