1General information

 

Company information

TGF Unique Limited (‘the Company’) is a private company limited by shares incorporated in the United Kingdom and registered in England and Wales. The principal activities and nature of the Company’s operations are disclosed in the Directors’ Report on page 2. The registered office is 672 Spur Road, North Feltham Trading Estate, Feltham, England, TW14 0SL.

 

2Accounting policies

 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these special purpose financial statements are set out below. They have, unless otherwise stated, been applied consistently to all periods presented.

 

Basis of accounting

The transactions in these special purpose financial statements have been recognised and measured in accordance with International Accounting Standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The company is a qualifying entity under Financial Reporting Standard 101 (‘FRS 101’). These special purpose financial statements were presented in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim financial statements’, applying FRS 101 ‘Reduced Disclosure Framework’. IAS 34 requires the presentation of the statement of financial position as of the end for the immediately preceding financial year as a comparative. These special purpose financial statements do not present the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022, as would be required by IAS 34. Instead, the special purpose financial statements present the comparative statement of financial position as at 31 October 2021.

 

These special purpose financial statements are not the statutory accounts of the Company. Instead, they are non-statutory unaudited special purpose financial statements prepared on the basis set out above, the Companies Act 2006 and regulations thereunder and are presented in accordance with section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. At the date of approving these non statutory financial statements the statutory financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2022 had been delivered to the registrar and they have been subject to audit.

 

The special purpose financial statements are prepared in US Dollars (‘$’) and monetary amounts are rounded to the nearest $’000. The currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates is sterling (its ‘functional currency’). The special purpose financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

 

Reduced disclosures

 

The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions under FRS 101:

 

  the requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments;
  the requirements of IFRS 15 (disaggregation of revenue);
  the requirement in paragraph 38 of IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ to present comparative information in respect of:
    -paragraph 79(a)(iv) of IAS 1;
  the requirements of paragraphs 10(f), 16, 38A, 38B, 38C, 38D, 40A, 40B, 40C, 40D, 111 and 134-136 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements;
  the requirements of IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
  the requirements of paragraph 17 and 18A of IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures; and
  the requirements in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures to disclose related party transactions entered into between two or more members of a group, provided that any subsidiary which is a party to the transaction is wholly owned by such a member.

FOR THE 7 MONTH PERIOD ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

 

 

 

2Accounting policies (continued)

 

The company’s ultimate parent company, Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd, includes the company in its consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements of Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd, are prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP which is recognised as an equivalent to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) and are available to the public and may be obtained from the registered office 1-3-2 Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, 100-8798.

 

Reporting period

These special purpose financial statements cover the 7-month period from 1 April 2022 to 31 October 2022 with the comparative figures covering the 7-month period from 1 April 2021 to 31 October 2021.

 

Going concern

The special purpose financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts which indicate that the company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the special purpose financial statements.

 

Foreign currency translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the company’s functional currency at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

 

In addition to the above, the special purpose financial statements’ presentation currency is different from the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate as at the statement of financial position date. Income and expenses are translated at the annual average exchange rate, as this average exchange rate approximates the exchange rate applicable at the date of the transaction. All resulting exchange differences are recognised as other comprehensive income in the statement of comprehensive income.

 

Taxation

Tax on the profit or loss for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit or loss account except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income respectively.

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous periods.

 

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

FOR THE 7 MONTH PERIOD ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

 

 

 

2 Accounting policies (continued)

 

Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise, trade and other debtors, cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other creditors.

 

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

 

Trade and other creditors

Trade and other creditors are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

 

Employee benefits

Defined contribution plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss account in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.

 

Accounting estimates and judgements

There are no judgements made by the directors, in the application of these accounting policies that have a significant effect on the special purpose financial statements or estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next period.

 

Tangible fixed assets

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Where parts of an item of tangible fixed assets have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of tangible fixed assets. Depreciation is charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of tangible fixed assets. The estimated useful

lives are as follows:

  Computer equipment 3-4 years

 

Expected Credit Loss

IFRS 9 uses an ‘expected credit loss’ (ECL) model. This requires considerable judgement about how changes in economic factors affect ECLs, which are determined on a probability-weighted basis. An allowance for expected credit loss is formed based on historic client delinquencies which the management adjust for based on changes in the macro-economic environment, operational reasons, and client portfolio.
