1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Oyster Bay Systems Limited 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 (£) and have been rounded to the nearest pound.

2.	STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going concern

The company has traded profitably in the year and has increased its net assets from the previous year. Since the year end, in common with most business, costs in most areas of the business have increased significantly. Current economic forecasts have shown increased uncertainties in relation to cost inflation and this presents a risk to future results. However, the company's financial reporting systems enable the directors to closely monitor performance and to respond quickly to changes in profitability and costs so reducing future financial risks.

Therefore, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for the annual report and financial statements.

Related party exemption

The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned entities within the group.

Significant judgements and estimates

In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts 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 which 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 if the revision only effects that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the critical judgements that the directors have made in the process of applying the company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Impairment of assets

Assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

Provisions and contingencies

Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation as a result of a past event and a reliable estimate can be made of a probable adverse outcome. Otherwise, material contingent liabilities are disclosed unless a transfer of economic benefits is considered remote. Contingent assets are only disclosed if an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Exceptional items

Where the company incurs costs or is entitled to income which the directors consider are either outside the scope of normal operating activities or unusually material to the accounts in terms of size or incidence, then such amounts are classified as exceptional items and disclosed separately on the face of the income statement and described further in a separate note to the accounts.

Turnover and revenue recognition

Turnover represents revenue derived from net invoiced sales of software products and services, excluding value added tax. Turnover on software development is recognised when the company obtains the right to consideration or by reference to the value of the work performed. Other revenue is recognised in the period to which the service relates.

Other income relates to recharges to group companies and is recognised in the period to which it relates.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.

Long leasehold

-

10% on cost and 2% on cost

Fixtures & fittings and equipment

-

25% on cost

Motor vehicles

-

25% on cost

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation.

Financial instruments

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price 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.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest.

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

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.

Research and development

Research is written off to the income statement in the year in which it is incurred. Development expenditure is written off in the same way unless the directors are satisfied as to the technical, commercial and financial viability of individual projects.

Research and development - intangible fixed assets

Where the outcome of individual projects is assessed as being reasonably certain as regards viability and technical feasibility, the expenditure incurred in the development of these projects is deferred and amortised over the period in which the company will benefit.

After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses

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.

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.

Government grants

Grants towards capital expenditure are credited to deferred income and released to the income statement over the expected useful life of the assets. Grants towards revenue expenditure are released to the income statement as the related expenditure is incurred.
