STRATEGIC REPORT
The directors present their strategic report for Allect Limited the year ended 31 March 2023.
Rigby Group
The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allect Holdings Limited, which in turn is a subsidiary of Rigby Group (RG) plc (“Rigby Group”).
Rigby Group is a family-owned highly successful business operating across Europe. Diversifying from its origins as a technology re-seller, Rigby Group is currently comprised of five key divisions: Technology, Airports, Real Estate, Hotels, and Technology Investments. Since its origins in 1975 the Group has grown to be the 12th largest family business in the United Kingdom (source https://familybusinessindex.com), employing over 8,000 people and with a consolidated turnover of over £3bn.
The group has a distinguished reputation as both an investor and business operator built around core family values of foresight, working hard and enabling others. The Rigby Group is a keen supporter of job creation, enterprise and charitable causes in the regions in which it operates and takes its responsibility for the environment seriously.
Further information is available at www.rigbygroupplc.com.
Allect
Allect is an international multidisciplinary integrated design and delivery group which brings together development management, architecture, interior design, construction, private client services and the newly established creative division. Allect has the finest names in luxury interior design and delivery: Rigby & Rigby, Helen Green Design and Lawson Robb Design.
Allect oversees the creative development of all the brands, whilst maintaining their individual identity, heritage and expertise. There is a perfect balance between Rigby & Rigby’s research and development influenced interior design and delivery, Helen Green’s quintessentially British focused interior design, and Lawson Robb’s vibrant and eclectic
interior architecture and yacht design. Further information on the brands is available at www.rigbyandrigby.com, www.helengreendesign.com and www.lawsonrobb.com.
Allect has built a reputation as a leading, international ultra-prime specialist studio based on four core deliverables: deliver excellence, push boundaries, inspire and excite and have a client driven vision at its heart.
Allect prides itself on innovation, agility, speed, and the ability to critically think and produce solutions for complex project challenges. Allect is widely considered as one of the best (if not the only) multidisciplinary integrated design and delivery studios in the UK, which is professionally accredited in each division. This represents a significant differentiator from the industry in which no other business is able to design, develop and execute as an integrated multidisciplinary business.
The studio of experienced professionals specialising in ultra-prime design and delivery and the personal touch plays a critical role in Allect’s success and multi-service, end-to-end project delivery.
FY2023 marks the 20th anniversary of Helen Green Design and 15th year of business for Rigby & Rigby.

Review of the year
Operational review of the year
Allect continued the operational and organisational efficiency programmes developed in the prior financial years, and invested in additional resources to create a more agile management structure and expand our service offering.
We have continued to develop our national and international presence through the year and are now working in 22 countries. We continue to mitigate the risk of exposure to one sector by diversifying into multiple sectors and jurisdictions. Our engagements included the design of two superyachts for private clients, hotels in Monaco and London, a private family office in Norway, retail premises and offices in London, a restaurant in London, in addition to super prime residences in the UK, Thailand, Japan, Dubai, Qatar, France, Spain, Finland, Austria and Australia.
We have completed an ultra-prime private residential property development in Tokyo, working with one of the world’s top architects, Kengo Kuma Associates.
All of our brands featured in the Great British Brands 2022 Edition, we achieved a Blue Plaque award from English Heritage, Certificates of Excellence on all London delivery projects with an outstanding health and safety record.
Highlights included the continued construction of Lancelot House, Rigby & Rigby’s single largest residential project, located in one of London’s most prestigious addresses in Knightsbridge. The 17,000 sq.ft. super mansion features six bedrooms, two apartments, a double height swimming pool, spa, cinema, parking for nine cars via two car stackers, a roof terrace and a courtyard garden. It is a multi-year project and will run until the middle of 2023 – an exemplary project for the business.
Allect concluded the review of its brand strategy during the year, still targeting ultra-prime and super-prime business with a clearer focus on residential projects, primarily based in London. It achieved excellent Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) scores across all of its projects which is a very high standard to achieve and is testament to the dedication and care of the delivery team. The Considerate Constructors Scheme is a non-profit,
independent organisation founded by the construction industry. Construction sites, companies and suppliers register with the scheme and agree to abide by the Code of Considerate Practice, designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirements. We retained the membership of the Federation of Master Builders to further reinforce excellence in this division.
Awards won by Allect include awards in Design et Al’s International Design & Architecture Awards and being shortlisted for the International Design & Architecture Awards, SBID (The Society of British and International Interior Design) Awards, and International Design and Architecture Awards. Allect also appeared in the 2022 Spears 500 Top Recommended Interior designers and Top Recommended Architects.
We are proud to be working alongside industry leaders of innovative methodologies and sustainability, to continuously keep pushing boundaries and set new standards for our Clients, and we are proud that our achievements include BREEAM & CSH Excellent Homes; WELLness accreditation for a single private residence; Air Rated certification to the highest standard for indoor air quality in any private residence in the UK and the interior design of the largest yacht ever build under 500 gross tonnes.
We are already delivering net zero developments, and during the financial year, we were advancing to be the very first architecture and interior design studio in the world to be certified with the Butterfly Kite Mark from Positive Luxury – working closely with colleagues, suppliers, and contractors to make a positive impact on the climate position, this is a position for which we are very proud and join large recognised international companies and brands. The Butterfly Kite Mark is similar to B-Corp but specifically for the luxury industry.

Financial review of the year
The company again delivered a sustainably improved result in the year.
By their nature, design and delivery projects are not short term in their creation or delivery, nor are they consistent in value, resulting in fluctuating annual performance in line with project timelines and values. The quantity and quality of our projects is key to our success. We have been able to complete a number of important projects in the financial year and our turnover increased by £3.1m (10.5%) from £29.7m to £32.8m, predominantly from large international interior design projects undertaken during the year.
Gross profit was 8.8% higher, however gross profit % reduced slightly to 9.14% as the company continued to invest in direct resource.
Administrative expenses were in line with the prior year despite inflationary pressures, as the company continues to actively manage controllable and non controllable costs.
Exceptional income of £42k relates to the receipt from a client where the balance had been impaired as exceptional in a prior financial year.
The financial performance of the business improved with operating profits growing by £289k (38%) to £1,048k.
The financial performance for the period post 31 March 2023 remains encouraging, the business continues to generate profits and cash flows leaving the business well placed to manage the economic risks arising in the short and medium term.
Order books are currently full with a strong pipeline of activity over the next 18 months and, whilst planning consents can impact the timing of some projects, contracts are generally multi-year providing strong degree of comfort over the coming financial year.
Principal risk and uncertainties
Risk management process
The directors are responsible for reviewing risk and the effectiveness of mitigating internal control systems in place.
Risks are reassessed in response to changes in the environment in which the company operates. The board has established and reviews periodically the company’s risk appetite, which is set to balance opportunities for new business development in areas of potentially higher risk whilst maintaining customer satisfaction and protecting the company’s reputation. The risk appetite is consistent with maintaining a strong framework of ethical behaviour and compliance with laws and legislation.
The risk identification and assessment process is integrated with the strategic planning process. The board establishes the strategic objectives of the company, and then consider the barriers to achieving the strategic objectives, and in turn, assess the level of risk in the context of the company’s defined risk appetite.
The risks which are regularly considered include volatility of the residential property market; operational project delivery risks; impact of competitors; credit worthiness of clients; retention of personnel; reliance on external third party suppliers (particularly sub contractors); increase in raw material and third party costs; and risks arising on statutory obligations, such as planning, health and safety and environmental.
The principal risks are subject to robust challenge by the board and on the effectiveness of mitigating controls and actions. An insurance program is maintained to further mitigate risks facing the company.
Looking ahead to the year ending 31 March 2024; with long-term, multi-jurisdiction and multi-service projects already underway and a strong order book of new projects already commenced post 31 March 2023, as a business Allect remains confident.
ALLECT LIMITED
STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Principal risks
The principal commercial risk centres on the volatility of the residential property market. The company does not purchase properties to undertake speculative residential developments; it undertakes developments and refurbishments of property owned by third parties. The risk of market value fluctuations in residential properties is borne by the owners of the properties.
The economic state of the residential property is a continuing risk, the implementation of Brexit, the probable economic slowdown and recession; foreign exchange rates; attractiveness of the UK being a safe and stable place for investment capital in property; number of sale transactions in super prime London segments are all aspects the Board consider a risk that is continually monitored and assessed.
Allect have always operated in the higher tier of the luxury and most exclusive part of the market dealing with ultrahigh net wealth individuals and businesses. Operational delivery risk to exacting standards to a timed programme presents reputational risk if governance, project management discipline and exacting standards are not maintained and monitored, including health and safety. All these project delivery risks are carefully and regularly monitored through process and governance disciplines to minimise this risk materialising.
Allect have also reducing the exposure to the super prime residential market by diversifying into country projects, hospitality, retail, commercial and F&B (food and beverage) restaurants, marine (Super yachts), and execute in design and delivery.

Future developments
No events have occurred since the year end.
Auditor
The auditors, Ormerod Rutter Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment in accordance with Section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.
Statement of directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Disclosure in the strategic report
A separate Strategic Report has been prepared in compliance with Companies Act 2006 and contains information about likely future developments and an assessment of the principal risks and uncertainties to the company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF ALLECT LIMITED
- 7 -
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Allect Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of comprehensive income, the balance sheet, the statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial statements, including 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 March 2023 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.
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 Auditor's 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.
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
the information given in the strategic report and the directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the strategic report and the directors' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
ALLECT LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE MEMBERS OF ALLECT LIMITED
- 8 -
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 directors' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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 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 directors' responsibilities statement, 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 is 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.
Auditor's 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 an auditor's report 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.
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.
Based on our understanding of the company, we identified the principle risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations including those that have a direct impact on the preparation of financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006, and the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. Audit procedures performed included discussions with management, testing of journals, designing and performing audit procedures and challenging assumptions and judgements made by management.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations which are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, intentional misstatement or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's 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 an auditor's report 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.

Accounting policies
Company information
Allect Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales.
The registered office is Bridgeway House, Bridgeway, Stratford Upon Avon, Warwickshire, CV37 6YX.
The nature of the group's operations and its principal activities are set out in the directors report on pages 5 to 6.
1.1
Accounting convention
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, to include certain items at fair value, and in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
The functional currency of the company is considered to be pounds sterling because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
The company meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 102 and has therefore taken advantage of the disclosure exemptions available to it in respect of its separate financial statements. Exemptions have been taken in relation to related party transactions with wholly owned group companies and presentation of a cash flow statement.
The company has taken advantage of the exemption under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated accounts. The financial statements present information about the company as an individual entity and not about its group.
1.2
Going concern
Allect Limited is a subsidiary of Rigby Group (RG) plc and the results of Allect Limited are included in the consolidated financial statements of Rigby Group (RG) plc, which are available from its registered office as disclosed in note 30.true
The company's business activities, together with factors likely to affect its future developments, performance and position are set out in the Strategic Report on pages 1 to 4.
The company is part of the Rigby Group (RG) plc group and the results are incorporated within the Rigby Group (RG) plc - Annual Report and Financial Statements. These reports describe the financial position of the group; its cash flows and liquidity position; the group's objectives, policies and processes for managing its capital; its financial risk management objectives; details of its financial instruments and hedging activities; and its exposure to credit risk and liquidity risk.
The group's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the group would be able to operate within the level of its current facilities.
Divisions within the group either have their own bank debt facilities, or borrow from the ultimate parent company where necessary for major investments in infrastructure or acquisitions. Rigby Group (RG) Plc has provided a commitment to the company to provide additional funding should the need arise.
After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company and the group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Turnover
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Revenue from contracts for the provision of professional services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion when the stage of completion, costs incurred and costs to complete can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion is calculated by comparing costs incurred, mainly in relation to subcontractors and materials, as a proportion of total costs. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.
1.4
Intangible fixed assets - goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of unincorporated businesses over the fair value of net assets acquired. It is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is considered to have a finite useful life and is amortised on a systematic basis over its expected life, which is 8 years and 9 months.
1.5
Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over the following useful economic lives:
Website development costs
between 2 and 3 years
Amortisation is charged to the profit and loss account.
1.6
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Plant and machinery
25% reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings
Between 25% - 32% straight line and 25% reducing balance
Motor vehicles
25% on cost
Leasehold improvements
Over the life of the respective leases

Fixed asset investments
Investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost less impairment. For investments in subsidiaries acquired for consideration including the issue of shares qualifying for merger relief, cost is measured by reference to the nominal value of the shares issued plus fair value of other consideration. Any premium is ignored.
Investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairments are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
1.8
Stocks
Stocks held for resale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Provision is made for obsolete, slow moving or defective items where appropriate.
1.9
Construction contracts
Where the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date. This is normally measured by the proportion that total contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion where work certified to date is used. Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that the amount can be measured reliably and its receipt is considered probable.
Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred where it is probable they will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.
Where costs incurred plus recognised profits less recognised losses exceed progress billings, the balance is recognised as due from customers on construction contracts within stock. Accrued retention revenues not billed on construction contracts are included within trade and other receivables. Where progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits less recognised losses, the balance is recognised as an advance payment on construction contracts within trade and other payables.
1.10
Financial instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
Other financial assets
Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Accounting policies
(Continued)
- 16 -
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.11
Taxation
Current tax
Current tax, including UK corporation tax and foreign tax, is provided at amounts 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
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company's taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of gains and losses 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, on the basis of all available evidence, it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted.
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 the timing difference. Deferred tax relating to property, plant and equipment measured using the revaluation model and investment property is measured using the tax rates and allowances that apply to sale of the asset.
Where items recognised in other comprehensive income or equity are chargeable to or deductible for tax purposes, the resulting current or deferred tax expense or income is presented in the same component of comprehensive income or equity as the transaction or other event that resulted in the tax expense or income.

Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
1.13
Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
1.14
Leases
Assets held 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 and loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as liability.
Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
1.15
Foreign exchange
Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss.
1.16
Finance costs of financial liabilities are recognised in the profit and loss account over the term of such instruments at a constant rate on the carrying amount.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
Critical judgements
The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Impairment of assets
The company reviews the carrying value of assets, including amounts recoverable from customers on construction contracts at each period end. If indicators of impairment exist, the carrying value of the asset is subject to further testing to determine whether its carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. This process will usual involve the estimation of future cash flows which are likely to be generated by the asset.
Provisions
A provision is recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event for which it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flow at a rate that reflects the time value of money and risks specific to the liability.
Whether a present obligation is probable or not requires judgement. The nature and type of risks for these provisions differ and management’s judgement is applied regarding the nature and extent of obligations in deciding if an outflow of resources is probable or not.
Profit recognition on long term contracts
Profit is only recognised on long-term contracts where the outcome can be assessed with reasonable certainty. In such cases, turnover is calculated by reference to the value of work performed to date as a proportion of total contract value. The work performed to date is based on valuations by in house quantity surveyors and is certified by the client and/or their representatives.
