STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 |
|
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2020. |

The company sells its products as an Outsourced Design Manufacturer (ODM) to a single large customer and internationally under its own brand, Smoothskin. |
|
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |

Gross Profit Margin | 21% | 25% |

STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 |
|
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Financial Risk: |
|
The company uses various financial instruments which include cash and items such as trade debtors and trade creditors that arise directly from its operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the company's operations. |
|
The main financial risks arising from the company's financial instruments are interest rate risk and credit risk. The directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. |
|
Liquidity Risk |
|
The company seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitability. |
|
Credit Risk |
|
The company's principal financial assets are cash and trade debtors. The principal credit risk arises from its trade debtors. In order to manage credit risk the directors set limits for customers based on a combination of payment history and third party credit references. Credit limits are reviewed by the financial controller on a regular basis in conjunction with debt ageing and collection history. |
|
Trading Risks |
|
(i) Customer Concentration |
|
Two of the group's largest customers account for a significant proportion of sales. There is an inherent risk should these customers cease to participate in the category. The success of the own brand business in other markets helps mitigate this risk. |
|
(ii) Regulatory Framework: |
|
IPL hair removal devices are increasingly being classified as medical devices in global markets. The company has had significant success in obtaining medical device clearances in certain territories around the world e.g. US already. There is however a risk that as territories switch classification of home use IPL devices from 'over the counter' to being medical a period of adjustment is required which may adversely affect trading. If this were to occur there is likely only a short term effect while the necessary clearances are obtained, the longer term outlook would not be effected. |
|
Compliance with GDPR |
|
There is a risk that the group is not compliant with GDPR with potential for penalties to be imposed. The group has made sure that decision makers and data controllers within the organisation maintain awareness of the latest GDPR requirements. |
|
Information Technology |
|
The business continues to rely heavily on its IT infrastructure to enable it to function efficiently. A continuing policy of appraisal and development ensures we keep pace with this ever changing environment. As a means to safeguard the integrity of our data we have systems in place to regularly update and back up all relevant information. |

|
Future Development |
|

This is the first year of reporting. Future reports will compare performance against the previous year. |

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |

|
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
CYDEN LIMITED |
|
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of CyDen Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
|
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of its profit for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
|
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
|
Conclusions relating to going concern |
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
|
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
|
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
|
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
|
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
|
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
CYDEN LIMITED |
|
|
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
|
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
|
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
- | adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
|
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on pages six and seven, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
|
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
CYDEN LIMITED |
|
|
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
|
We discussed our audit independence complying with the Revised Ethical Standard 2019 with the engagement team members whilst planning the audit and continually monitored our independence throughout the process. |
|
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
|
- | enquiring of management, including obtaining and reviewing support documentation, concerning the company's policies and procedures relating to: |
- | identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; |
- | detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; |
- | internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations; |
- | discussing among the engagement team how and where fraud might occur in the Financial Statements and any potential indicators of fraud. |
- | obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the Financial Statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the company, The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and relevant tax legislation. |
|
In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: |
|
- | reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations; |
- | enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; |
- | reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance and reviewing correspondence with HMRC; |
- | In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; |
- | assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and |
- | evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. |
|
We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. |
|

CYDEN LIMITED |
|
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors. |
|
Use of our report |
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. |

CyDen Limited is a

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
|
|
The company is both a parent and subsidiary undertaking of a small group and as such has taken advantage of the exemption available under the Companies Act 2006 to prepare consolidated financial statements. These financial statements therefore present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group. |
|
Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions |
The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland": |
|
• | the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows. |
|
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
|
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
Significant Judgements used by management |
The preparation of the financial statement requires management to make judgement, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of polices and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
|
Warranty Returns Provision |
The company provides warranty coverage on our products that varies per customer. The estimated warranty costs are accounted for by accruing these costs for each product upon recognition of the sale. The estimated warranty costs are based on the cost of the product and the historical level of returns received. Actual results may vary from these estimates but they are reviewed on an ongoing basis. |
|
Depreciation and Amortisation |
Tangible assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of 5 years, they are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Tangible assets are reviewed periodically, and where any asset is no longer used by the Cyden the balance is written off to the income statement. |
|
Development and software costs are amortised over their estimated useful life of 5 years and Patents and licenses are amortised over their estimated useful life of 6 years. They are both stated at cost less accumulated amortisation.Intangible assets are reviewed annually, and where future benefits are deemed to have ceased or to be in doubt, the balance is written off to the income statement. |

Turnover |
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of goods supplied during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts. Turnover is recognised on despatch of the goods to the customer. |
|
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |

Cost comprises the purchase price of the asset and expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. |
|
A fixed asset is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to the income statement. |
|
Impairment of fixed assets |
The company performs impairment testing where there are any indicators of impairment. Impairment is calculated as the difference between the carrying value and the recoverable value of the asset. Recoverable value is the higher of net realisable value and estimated value in use at the date the impairment loss is recognised. Value in use represents the present value of expected future discounted cash flows. If incurred, impairment is recognised immediately in the income statement. |
|
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying value of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of the recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying value does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately as a credit to the income statement. |
|
Fixed asset investments |
Fixed asset investments are valued at fair value unless fair value cannot be measured reliably, in which case investments are valued at cost less impairment. |

|
Grants |
Grants are recognised at their fair value in profit or loss where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the company has complied with all the conditions. |
|
Capital grants are initially recognised as deferred income on the balance sheet and credited to the profit and loss account by instalments on a basis consistent with the depreciation policy of the relevant asset, as adjusted for any impairment. |
|
Revenue grants are credited to income as to match them with the expenditure to which they relate. |
|
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and, where required, an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. In general, cost is determined on a first in first out basis. |
|
Stock is reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. |

|
Financial instruments |
The company enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities such as trade and other receivables and payables, amounts due to and from related parties. |
|
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
|
Debt instruments like loans and other receivables and payables are initially measured at present value of the future payments and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade payables or receivables, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate or in case of an outright short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially and subsequently, at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. |
|
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying value and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the assets original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the best estimate, which is an approximation, of the amount that the group would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date. |
|
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount recognised in the balance sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. At each reporting date non-financial assets not carried at fair value, such as property, plant and equipment are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any asset or group of related assets, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less costs to sell, is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
|
If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or group of related assets is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not to exceed the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or group of related assets in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or 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. |
|
External research and development |
Development costs are capitalised within intangible assets where they can be identified with a specific product or project anticipated to produce future benefits, and are amortised on the straight line basis the anticipated life of the benefits arising from the completed product or project, which typically is deemed to be 5 years. |
|
Deferred research and development costs are reviewed annually, and where future benefits are deemed to have ceased or to be in doubt, the balance of any related research and development is written off to the income statement. Expenditure on product research and development is written off to the income statement in the year in which it is incurred. |
|
R&D tax credits are recognised on an accruals basis and are included as an income tax credit under current assets. |
|
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling using a monthly average exchange rate. If exchange rates fluctuate significantly in the month foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
|
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. |

|
Deferred income |
Contributions received towards development costs are recognised in the period that development expenditure is incurred. Capital contributions are initially recognised as deferred income on the balance sheet and credited to the profit and loss account by instalments on a basis consistent with the depreciation policy of the relevant asset, as adjusted for any impairment. |
|
Warranty Provision |
The company recognises a provision for warranty cost; which is valid for between 2 and 5 years depending on the product sold. A range of 2 - 20% of turnover is as provided. Once the product is 2->5 years old the warranty provision is released. |
|
Employee benefits |
The company provides a range of benefits to employees, including annual bonus arrangements, paid holiday arrangements and defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans. |
|
Short term benefits, including holiday pay and other similar non-monetary benefits, are recognised as an expense in the period in which the service is received. |
|
Debtors |
Short term trade debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. A provision for impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due. |
|
Creditors |
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Bank loans are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
|
Provisions for liabilities |
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. |
|
Functional and presentation currency |
The company's functional and presentational currency is pounds sterling. |
|
3. | TURNOVER |
|
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
|
The company supplies various markets other than just in the UK, the disclosure of which would be seriously prejudicial to the interests of the company and therefore will not be disclosed. |
