NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023

1.Accounting policies

 
1.1

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:

  
1.2

Going concern

The Company is in a net asset position of £307,714 (2022: £123,976) supported by amounts owed by group undertakings. Despite this position, due to the Company's business model being solely a transfer pricing agreement with the parent company, Stryder Corp., it is reliant upon the continued support of that company in order to remain a going concern 
The Company has received written confirmation from Stryder Corp., that it will continue to provide financial support for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Furthermore, the directors have assessed the ability of Stryder Corp. to provide this support based upon their cash flow forecasts and have concluded that the parent will have sufficient working capital to provide the necessary support. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

 
1.3

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

Transactions and balances

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 profit or loss

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023

1.Accounting policies (continued)

 
1.4

Turnover

Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Rendering of services

Turnover is recognised on a cost plus 5% basis, in line with the intercompany service agreement with the parent company. Intercompany turnover is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the intercompany service agreement;
the costs incurred under the intercompany service agreement can be measured reliably.

 
1.5

Operating leases: the Company as lessee

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 
1.6

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

 
1.7

Share based payments

Where share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the options granted. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition.
The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the Company keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the scheme).
Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023

1.Accounting policies (continued)

 
1.8

Taxation

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 balance sheet 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 balance sheet 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 balance sheet date.

 
1.9

Tangible fixed assets

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.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Fixtures and fittings
-
5 years
Computer equipment
-
3 years

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.

 
1.10

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price. Amounts owed by group undertakings are intercompany loans measured at cost. These loans are unsecured, interest free and repayable on demand.

Capital contribution reserve

Certain employees of the Company have been granted options over the shares in Stryder Corp., the Company's parent. The options are granted at an independently determined fair value and vest over four years. The options expire 10 years after the date grant and the employees are required to be an employee of the Company at the date they exercise any options. 
An expense equivalent to the fair value of the share options granted is recognised evenly over the vesting period with a corresponding amount being recognised in the capital contribution reserve. 
Certain employees of the Company have been granted Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) over the shares in Stryder Corp. The RSUs have a double trigger vesting condition attached to them being both time vesting and a liquidity event. As a liquidity event is not currently deemed to be probable no expense has been recognised in respect of the RSUs.
