1.	Statutory information

George LB Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's

registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities"

of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of

Ireland" and Companies Act 2006.

3.	Accounting policies

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Significant judgements and estimates

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors,

including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are

not considered to be any critical judgements in applying the company's accounting policies other than those

noted in note 4. The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting

accounting estimates will by definition, seldom equal the actual results. There are no estimates or assumptions

which give a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities

within the next financial year other than those noted in note 4.

Turnover

Turnover represents rents receivable and the consideration received or receivable on the sale of properties. The

sales are accounted for on legal completion.

Stocks

Stocks relate to property for resale and is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to

complete and sell. Stocks are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is

recognised.

Cost is determined on the actual cost method. Cost includes the purchase price and any costs attributable to

bringing the stock to its present location and condition.

At the end of each reporting period stocks are assessed for impairment. If an item of stock is impaired, the

identified stock is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment charge is

recognised in the profit and loss account. Where a reversal of the impairment is recognised the impairment

charge is reversed, up to the original impairment loss, and is recognised as a credit in the profit and loss

account.

Financial instruments

The company and group have chosen to adopt Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial

instruments.

(i) Financial assets

Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at

transaction price, 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.

Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

There are no assets which are initially measured at fair value.

(ii) Financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies

that are classified as debt, 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 receipts

discounted at a market rate of interest.

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. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year

or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account,

except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable 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.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different

from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and

laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the

reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they

will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks other short-term highly liquid

investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown

within borrowings in current liabilities.

Going concern

The company made a loss for the year ended 31 March 2019 however it had net liabilities at that date.

The company's cash flow projections reveal that it will continue to make profitable property disposals in the next

12 months. These will enable the company to repay all third party creditors. Any remaining distributable profits

will be available to repay related party creditors. The company is dependent in the absence of other funding, on

the continued support of its related companies. Those companies have confirmed their commitment to provide

the necessary support.

On the basis of the above, the directors are confident that the company will have adequate resources to

continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going

concern basis in preparing the financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments

that would result if the going concern basis of preparation is inappropriate.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary

shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
