NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Broadwick Entertainment Limited is a private limited liability company registered in England and Wales. Its registered office and business address is Acre House, 11-15 William Road, London, NW1 3ER.
The company's principal activity is that of the development and operation of live music, corporate and ticketed events venues.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
During the period ended 31 March 2020, the business carried out capital works on 4 venues and incurred various set-up and marketing costs for these venues, which resulted in a loss for the period. The works were carried out with a view to putting on a large number of events after the reporting date with a high capacity number.
It was anticipated this would generate good profit margins and return the business to a net asset position in the following year. However, operations during the year to 31 March 2021 were heavily impacted by Covid-19 which resulted in cancellations of events during the UK lockdown. The unexpected and unprecedented global pandemic left the company unable to trade for an extended period and therefore at the reporting date the company had net current liabilities and net liabilities.
Amounts owed to the company’s ultimate parent undertaking is in itself greater than the company’s net liabilities and the directors have obtained assurance from the ultimate parent undertaking that it has the ability to continue to support all its subsidiaries and that funds will continue to be made available as required so that they will be able to carry on trading and meet their financial obligations as and when they fall due, for at least twelve months from the date the accounts are approved.
Following the end of lockdown restrictions, the company re-commenced its events programme from 4th September 2021. Thanks to the end of all social distancing restrictions and the successful vaccination programme, the Company received a high level of interest and scheduled extra events in the season compared to a normal year. Sales and net profit have been strong in the year to 31 March 2022.
The company and group that it is a part of continues to receive financial support from its investors, has strong cash reserves and expects its profitability to continue into the year ended 31 March 2023. The directors are therefore satisfied that the company has the ability to settle all its financial liabilities as and when they fall due for the foreseeable future and the accounts have therefore been prepared under the going concern basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of the staging and operating live music and corporate events, and the hire of venues. The operation of these events includes ticket sales, beverage sales, sale of merchandise, sponsorship and locker hire.
Revenue is recognised when the events are staged and it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the company. Revenue from beverage sales, locker rental and merchandise sales are recognised at point of sale. All revenue is exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts.
Amounts received in advance with respect to events occurring during future periods are deferred and recognised in the period the event occurs. These amounts are shown in other creditors.
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
The company's functional and presentational currency is £ Sterling.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end, foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
|
|
Leased assets: the company as lessee
|
Assets obtained under finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.
Grants are accounted under the accruals model. Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related expenditure.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the Statement of Financial Position date, except that:
∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.
Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The estimated useful lives range as follows:
|
|
|
|
Website development costs
|
|
|
|
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
At each reporting date the company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
Tangible fixed assets (continued)
|
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on the following basis:
Included within plant, machinery and equipment:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Assets held under finance lease
|
|
over the term of the lease
|
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in Statement of Comprehensive Income.
|
|
Basic financial instruments
|
The company only enters into transactions that result in basic financial instruments such as trade and other debtors, trade and other creditors, cash at bank and in hand and loans with related parties.
Trade debtors, other debtors and loans to related parties are recognised initially at the transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade creditors, other creditors and loans from related parties are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses in the case of trade and other debtors, and loans to related parties.
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions.
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 5 (2020 - 6).
