Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2018

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

SDL Biomass Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's
registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


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.

Turnover
Turnover represents the value of goods sold during the period net of VAT. Turnover is recognised when goods
are physically delivered to the customer.

Uninvoiced deliveries at the year end are included in accrued income. Invoiced deliveries are included in
debtors. Where customers pay in advance for goods, the amount is recorded as deferred income until the goods
have been delivered.

Intangible assets
Development costs will commence amortisation when commercial production starts and the product comes into
use. Computer software is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of five years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Improvements to property - 5% on cost
Plant and machinery - 5% on boilers and dryers, 25% on others
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 15% on cost

Tangible assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Stocks
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and
slow moving items.

Stock of goods is valued at the lower of costs and net realisable value. Cost represents the purchase price of
goods. Net realisable value represents the selling price of completed goods less any costs necessary to complete
the goods. Provision is made for slow moving, obsolete or damaged stock where the net realisable value is less
than cost.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Taxation
Current tax represents the amount of tax payable or receivable in respect of the taxable profit (or loss) for the
current or past reporting periods. It is measured at the amount expected to be paid or recovered using the tax
rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax represents the future tax consequences of transactions and events recognised in the financial
statements of current and previous periods. It is recognised in respect of all timing differences, with certain
exceptions. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income as stated
in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of income and expense in tax assessments in periods
different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. 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.

Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
balance sheet date that are expected to apply to the reversal of timing differences. Deferred tax on revalued
non-depreciable tangible fixed assets and investment properties is measured using the rates and allowances that
apply to the sale of the asset.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held
under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases
are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element
of the future payments is treated as a liability.

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

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension
scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the directors intend to support the
company. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that would result from the withdrawal of the
directors support.
