company from events that hinder the achievement of the company's performance objectives. |
|

The financial risks of the company and its subsidiaries undertakings are the exposure of the company (and its |
subsidiaries) to price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk. |
|
FUTURE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS |
- Organization of the top-level chess tournaments in 2019 and in following years |
- Development and creation of the new commercial products connected with chess |

GOING CONCERN STATEMENT |
The company business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future developments, its financial position, |
financial risk management objectives, details of its financial instruments and its exposure to credit risk are described in |
the Strategic Report and in the notes to the Financial Statements. |
|
The directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully in the environment |
which suggests many opportunities for sport events organisers. |
|
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational |
existence for the foreseeable future. Consequently, the directors have prepared the financial statements on a going |
concern basis. |
|
On the basis of the ongoing review of the activities, Ilya Merenzon being ultimate controlling party has provided a |
letter of support, confirming that he will provide ongoing financial support to the Company until at least twelve months |
from the date of approval of the financial statements, to enable it to continue its operating activities. |
|
DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors 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 International Financial Reporting Standards as |
adopted by the European Union. 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; |
- | state that the financial statements comply with IFRS; |
- |
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. |

Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have |
taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's |
auditors are aware of that information. |

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
|

|
|
|
|
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
World Chess Plc |
|
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of World Chess Plc (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2018 |
which comprise the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, |
the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows, 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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as |
adopted by the European Union. |
|
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- |
give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2018 and of its profit for the year
then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union; 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 |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to |
you where: |
- |
the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not
appropriate; or |
- |
the directors have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt about the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
|
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 there is a material misstatement in the financial |
statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 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. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
World Chess Plc |
|
|
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 Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page three, 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. |
|
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. |
|
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. |

for the Year Ended 31 December 2018 |
|
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
|
World Chess Plc is a public company, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and |
registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
|
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Basis of preparation |
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards |
(IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and IFRIC interpretations and with those parts of the Companies Act |
2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The financial statements have been prepared under the |
historical cost convention. |
|
The company's functional and presentational currency is euro and rounded to the nearest €. |
|
The company is enable it to meet its liabilities as they fall due and to enable it to carry on its business for the |
foreseeable future. Consequently, the directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. |
|
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about World Chess Plc as an individual company and do not |
contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section |
399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
|
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the |
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and operating costs during the |
reporting period. The Company does not have any estimate which could have a significant effect on the |
financial statements. |
|
Financial instruments |
The company's financial instruments comprise of cash and cash equivalents and items such as trade receivables, |
loans receivable, trade payables and borrowings. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide |
finance for the company's operations. The company is exposed to variety of financial risks including credit risk, |
the directors have set policies regarding financial risk management which is in line with size of the company. |
|
Credit risk |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
|
Taxation |
Current taxes are based on the results shown in the financial statements and are calculated according to local tax |
rules, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
|
Taxation is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in |
equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. |
|
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using rates enacted at the balance |
sheet date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. |
|
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated in respect of temporary differences using the balance sheet |
liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for all temporary differences arising between the tax basis |
of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes. A deferred tax asset is |
recorded only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible |
temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at tax rates that are |
expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have |
been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not |
discounted. |
|
Going concern |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. |
|
The directors consider the going concern basis to be appropriate due to the fact that the controlling party has |
expressed its willingness to provide financial support for the next 12 months as from the date of approval of the |
financial statements in order for the company to meet its current liabilities.Therefore the director continues to |
adopt the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realisation of assets and satisfaction of |
liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. |

significant impact on the company's financial statements when they are applied in future periods. |
|
Revenue recognition |
Revenues are recorded net of VAT and recognised in the period when revenue is earned according to the stage |
of completion of the transaction at the balance sheet date. Revenues are measured at the fair value of the |
consideration received or receivable when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the |
transaction will flow to the company and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. When the fair value |
of consideration received cannot be measured reliably the revenue is recognised at the fair value of the goods or |
services given up. Revenue comprises proceeds from services provided to the subsidiaries. |

using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts except where the effect of |
discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the debtors are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and |
doubtful debts. |
|
Trade and other creditors |
