2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about Batson Midco Limited as an individual company and do not
contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 400
of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements as it and its
subsidiary undertaking are included by full consolidation in the consolidated financial statements of its ultimate
holding company Batson Topco Limited, 9 Miller Court, Severn Drive, Tewkesbury Business Park, Tewkesbury
GL20 8DN.

Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost.

Non-basic financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and thereafter at fair value with changes recognised
in the profit and loss.

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 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.
