Directors' responsibilities statement
Year ended 31 December 2020
The directors are responsible for preparing the directors' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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 the profit or loss of the company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
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 also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

FOODATION LTD
Notes to the financial statements
Year ended 31 December 2020
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is 12 Bridewell Place, Third Floor East, London, EC4V 3AP.The principal activity of the company is that of an investment holding company .
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the provisions of FRS 102, Section 1A, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. The Triennial review 2017 amendments to the standard have been early adopted.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in euros which is the functional currency of the company and rounded to the nearest euro.
Going concern
The company made recurring losses and, at the reporting date, the realisable value of its investments remained uncertain. These conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, at the time of approving the financial statements, the directors are confident that the company will continue to receive financial support from its parent and ultimate parent undertakings and therefore has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. The directors therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Consolidation
The company has taken advantage of the exemption from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements contained in Section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 on the basis that the company and its subsidiary undertakings comprise a small group.
Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency, by applying the spot exchange rate as at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date, with any gains or losses being taken to profit or loss.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortisation
Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:
Patents, trademarks and licences - Between 3 to 8 years on a straight line basis
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Impairment
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.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
4. Employee numbers
The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to 7 (2019: 7 ).

11. Summary audit opinion
The auditor's report for the year dated 22 April 2022 was qualified on the following basis.
As stated in Note 3 to the financial statements, a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, continued financial support from the company's parent undertakings is essential to its ability to continue as a going concern. However, we have been unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence as to their intention and whether they are willing to provide continued support to the company for the foreseeable future.
