Notes to the Abbreviated Accounts
for the Year Ended 31 March 2016

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015).

The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis, the acceptability of which is dependent on the
continuing support of the directors, investors and bankers.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about Sandstorm International Limited as an individual company
and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company has taken the option
under Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated financial statements.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the company qualifies as a
small company.

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of goods, excluding value added tax.

Intangible fixed assets
Intangible fixed assets (including purchased goodwill and patents) are amortised at rates calculated to write off
the assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful economic lives. Impairment of intangible assets is
only reviewed where circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable.

Patents and licences - 5% on cost

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Computer equipment - 50% on cost and 25% on cost

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow
moving items.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax arises as a result of including items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods
different from those in which they are included in the company's accounts. Deferred tax is provided in full on
timing differences which result in a obligation to pay more (or less) tax at a future date, at an average tax rate that
are expected to apply when the timing differences reverse, based on current tax rates and laws.

Deferred tax is not provided on timing differences arising from the revaluation of fixed assets where there is no
commitment to sell the asset.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the
balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at
the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

Investments
Investments are shown at the lower of cost and permanent diminution in value. The directors review the
realisable value of investments on an annual basis.
