DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
- 1 -
The directors present their annual report and financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2019.
Principal activities
The principal activity of the company was the manufacture of optical precision instruments.
Business Review
Broadex Technologies UK Limited was incorporated on 27 February 2019 with the aim of becoming a premier supplier of optical components for the telecommunications industry. In 2019, this first period of trading, the company purchased out of administration a Wafer Fabrication facility with associated land, buildings, equipment and intellectual property for the purpose of designing and manufacturing Planar Light Circuit devices. This manufacturing line in Livingston, Scotland, was successfully started in Q2 2019 through the hiring of key staff with the know-how and experience in producing these Silica-on-Silicon based products. The output of the facility was ramped through second half of 2019, with wafer output being driven to 2/3 capacity with the introduction of new products into the plant. Revenue increased monthly over the same period, reducing operational and start-up losses, predominantly supplying components to parent company
Broadex Technologies Co., Ltd
.
Future Outlook
Broadex Technologies UK Limited looks to build on the long-standing reputation for optical component design and manufacture in the Livingston site, and establish itself as a quality and competitive supplier to the telecommunications infrastructure market. Penetration into the booming 5G infrastructure market is a key goal for the company by promoting the competitive advantages of the company’s products and providing innovative solutions to customers across the world. This shall be achieved through the continued investment into Research and Development of the company’s core technologies and the establishment of a global Sales and Marketing team, located in the Livingston facility. The sales team shall also offer the wider Broadex group’s portfolio of active and passive optical products, providing new sales channels for the group into new territories. Broadex Technologies UK’s target for 2020 is to become a profitable business, becoming cash-flow positive in Q3. The directors believe the risks to the business of market competition, product performance, product development, sales penetration and cost control are understood and that the correct measures are being taken to mitigate those risk conditions.
Other risks and uncertainties
In preparing the financial statements on a going concern basis, the directors have considered the impact of the Global COVID-19 pandemic. A key consideration has been over the robustness of the supply chain and the risk of payment default by customers as a result of the restrictions on movement of people that are being implemented. The directors and management team will continue to closely monitor the restrictions on the movement of people and the potential impact this will have on the business in the short term. The directors are confident that they can manage the short term operational challenges presented by the pandemic and combined with the continued support of the parent entity have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
Directors
The directors who held office during the period and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were as follows:
Dr Y Ding
(Appointed 27 February 2019)
Dr W Zhu
(Appointed 27 February 2019)
Auditor
The auditor, Johnston Carmichael LLP, was appointed during the current period and is deemed to be reappointed under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.
Statement of disclosure to auditor
So far as each person who was a director at the date of approving this report is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditor is unaware. Additionally, the directors individually have taken all the necessary steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of all relevant audit information and to establish that the company’s auditor is aware of that information.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
- 3 -
The directors are responsible for preparing the directors' 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 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.

true
t the time of approving the financial statements
,
t
he directors have a reasonable expectation that the
company
has
access to
adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
In forming this assessment, the directors have considered forecast trading performance as well as confirmations received from its parent undertaking that it will continue to provide the support necessary to allow the company to meet its obligations as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
The directors have also considered the impact of the Global COVID-19 pandemic. A key consideration has been over the robustness of the supply chain and the risk of payment default by customers as a result of the restrictions on movement of people that are being implemented. The directors and management team will continue to closely monitor the restrictions on the movement of people and the potential impact this will have on the business in the short term. The directors are confident that they can manage the short term operational challenges presented by the pandemic and combined with the continued support of the parent entity have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.

, and
is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes
.
The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.

(usually on dispatch of the goods)
, 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.

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.
Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date
where
it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the
fair
value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.
Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Patents
20 years straight line
1.6
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets
are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold land and buildings
30 years straight line
Plant and equipment
2.5 to 5 years straight line
Fixtures and fittings
7 years stright line
Office and computer equipment
3 years straight line
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 profit and loss account.
1.7
Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting
period
end date, the
company
reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible
and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company
estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately
in the profit and loss account.
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit)
in
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in
the profit and loss account.

1.8
Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition.
Stocks are calculated on a standard cost basis.
At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in
the profit and loss account
. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in
the profit and loss account.
1.9
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents
are basic financial assets
and
include cash in hand
and
deposits held at call with banks
.
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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include
certain
debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest
method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Classification of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including
certain
creditors and
loans from
fellow group companies, are
initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a
financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of
the future
paymen
ts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective
interest rate method.
Trade creditors
are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired
in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. A
m
ounts payable are classified as
current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented
as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price
and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

s
asset are consumed.
1.15
