    Other accounting policies

    2 Accounting policiesThe accounting policies set out below have, unless otherwise stated, been applied consistently to all periodspresented in these financial statements.2.1 Basis of preparationThese financial statements of schuh (holdings) limited are presented for a period of 52 weeks ended 29 January2022. The comparative period information is presented for the 52 weeks ended 30 January 2021.The financial statements have been prepared in sterling, the functional currency of the company. Monetaryamounts in these financial statements have been rounded to the nearest £1,000.schuh (holdings) limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Scotland, UnitedKingdom.2.2 Statement of complianceThese company financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 TheFinancial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") as issued in March2018, which reflects the amendments made as part of the Triennial Review 2017. The Triennial Reviewamendments have not had any material impact on the financial statements of the company . The presentationcurrency of these financial statements is sterling.The company has taken advantage of the exemption available under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006from the requirement to prepare group financial statements as it is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genesco Inc,which prepares publicly available group financial statements which include the results of the company and itssubsidiaries. The company's financial statements therefore purely reflect the company as an individualundertaking.2.4 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertaintyThe preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates andassumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and theamounts reported for revenues and expenses during the period. However, the nature of estimation means thatactual outcomes could differ from those estimates.The Directors do not consider there to be any individual critical accounting judgements which impact thepreparation of the financial statements.Key accounting estimatesImpairment of investmentsWhere there are indicators of impairment of individual assets, the company performs impairment tests based ona value in use calculation. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model. The cashflows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that thecompany is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset's performance ofthe cash generating unit being tested. The recoverable amount is most sensitive to the discount rate used for thediscounted cash flow model as well as the expected future cash flows and the growth rate used for extrapolationpurposes.2.5 Going concernThe Company’s Directors have assessed the company's financial position for a period of 12 months from thedate of approval of the full year results, covering the period through to 31 January 2023.The company is a holding company. It does not trade and has no outgoings. The Directors have considered thefinancial position of the company and do not expect any change in this position during the period to 31 January2023. The company has no liabilities.Based on the above, the Directors are confident that the company can continue to operate for a period of at least12 months from the date of these accounts and therefore these accounts have been prepared on a going concernbasis.2.6 Revenue RecognitionDividend revenue is recognised when the company's right to receive payment is established.2.7 InvestmentsInvestments in subsidiary undertakings are stated at cost less any provisions for impairment.Investments are considered for impairment via the ultimate parent company (Genesco Inc.) in conjunction withKPMG US LLP, there were no indicators for impairment during the current or comparative periods.2.8 TaxationDeferred tax is provided on timing differences which arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in taxassessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. Thefollowing timing differences are not provided for: differences between accumulated depreciation and taxallowances for the cost of a fixed asset if and when all conditions for retaining the tax allowances have beenmet; and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries, to the extent that it is not probable that they willreverse in the foreseeable future and the reporting entity is able to control the reversal of the timing difference.Deferred tax is not recognised on permanent differences arising because certain types of income or expense arenon-taxable or are disallowable for tax or because certain tax charges or allowances are greater or smaller thanthe corresponding income or expense.Deferred tax is provided in respect of the additional tax that will be paid or avoided on differences between theamount at which an asset (other than goodwill) or liability is recognised in a business combination and thecorresponding amount that can be deducted or assessed for tax. Goodwill is adjusted by the amount of suchdeferred tax. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply to the reversal of the relateddifference, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax balances arenot discounted.
