Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the period 1 November 2015 to 31 March 2017 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Absolute Software Limited is a |
The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company |
Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 |
Section 1A "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the |
Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost |
convention except for the modification to a fair value basis for certain financial instruments as specified |
in the accounting policies below. |
The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the company. |
Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound sterling. |
This is the first period in which the financial statements have been prepared under FRS 102. The date |
of transition was 1 November 2014. No balances have required restatement and there have been no |
changes to profit or loss, or shareholder funds. |
Going Concern |
The directors, after making enquiries and having considered the company's business, its financial |
plans and the facilities available to finance the business, have a reasonable expectation that the |
company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. |
Accordingly, the going concern basis is adopted in preparing the financial statements. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding value added tax, of sales made during the |
period. |
In respect of long-term contracts for on-going services, turnover represents the value of work done in |
the year, including estimates of amounts not invoiced. Turnover in respect of long-term contracts and |
contracts for on-going services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible assets are initially measured at cost. Such costs include costs directly attributable to making |
the asset capable of operating as intended. Subsequent to initial recognition, tangible assets such as, |
Leasehold Improvements, Website developments, fixtures and fittings and Computer software are |
stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. |
Tangible assets are depreciated as follows: |
Leasehold improvements - 10% on cost |
Website development - 25% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost |
Computer software - 33% on cost |
Impairment of fixed assets |
At each reporting end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible 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. |
The 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 profit or loss. |
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 profit or loss. |
Research and development |
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible assets |
and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Obligations under such |
agreements are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance |
element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss account so as to produce constant |
periodic rates of charge on the net obligations outstanding in each period. |

Taxation |
The tax expense represents the sum of the current tax expense and deferred tax expense. Current tax |
assets are recognised when tax paid exceeds the tax payable. |
Current and deferred tax is charged or credited to the profit or loss, except when it relates to items |
charged or credited to other comprehensive income or equity, when the tax follows the transaction or |
event it relates to and is also charged or credited to other comprehensive income, or equity. |
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are |
offset, if and only if, there is a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and the entity intends |
either to settle on the net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
Current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from total comprehensive |
income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other periods. |
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively |
enacted by the reporting period. |
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 have occurred at that date that will result in an |
obligation to pay more, or a right to pay less or to receive more, tax, with the following exceptions: |
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that the directors consider that it is 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 on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the |
periods in which timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively |
enacted at the balance sheet date. |
Financial instruments |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 "Basic Financial Instruments" and |
Section 12 "Other Financial Instruments" of FRS102 to all of its financial instruments. |
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when |
the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
Financial assets and liabilities are classified into specified categories. The classification depends on |
the nature and purpose of the financial asset or liability and is determined at the time of recognition. |
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables 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 constitute a financing |
transaction, where the transaction is measure at the present value of the future receipts discounted at |
a market rate of interest. |
Basic financial liabilities, which include trade and other payables are initially measured at transaction |
price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is |
measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. |
Long term contracts |
Amounts recoverable on long term contracts, which are included in debtors are stated at the net sales |
value of the work done after provisions for contingencies and anticipated future losses on contracts, |
less amounts received as progress payments on account. Excess progress payments are included in |
creditors as payments received on account. |
