Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements
for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 and 2013
| | The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with U.K generally accepted accounting principles and include the results of the Company's and the Group’s operations all of which are continuing. |
The principal accounting policies of the Group are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year.
The group's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, are set out in the principal activities and review of business section.
The group’s strategy has been incorporated into detailed forecasts which have been subject to scrutiny and sensitivity analysis. After considering a number of factors which include robust renewal rates and the current sales pipeline, the Directors, in conjunction with the ability to manage the group's cost and cash resources, have a reasonable expectation that the parent company and the group will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.
| 1.3 | Basis of consolidation |
| | The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Company and its operating subsidiaries, Boardex LLC and Boardex India Pvt Limited. MDL ESOP Limited has been consolidated by virtue of its deduction from shareholders’ funds. None of the Company’s dormant subsidiaries have been consolidated. Financial details for the subsidiaries that have not been consolidated are detailed in note 9. |
| | Turnover represents fees earned from the provision of services, including research. The company seeks to match income to services delivered by releasing revenues on a monthly basis over the term of the contract. In this regard the Company will take in account factors such as delivery timescales and / or acceptance criteria in determining if the release point for revenue should be anything other than the start date of the contract. Turnover is exclusive of VAT and other Sales Taxes. |
| | In accordance with accounting standards UITF 29 – Website development costs and FRS 15 – Tangible Fixed Assets, the Company has capitalised the costs of populating and developing its database as a tangible asset. |
Management Diagnostics Limited
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements
for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 and 2013
| 1. | Accounting policies (continued) |
| 1.6 | Tangible fixed assets and depreciation |
| | Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life and is as follows: |
| Office equipment | - | Straight line over three years |
| Fixtures and fittings | - | Straight line over three years |
| Database (Technology) | - | Straight line over seven years |
| Database (Content) | - | Straight line over twenty years |
The pension costs charged against operating profits are the contributions payable to defined contribution schemes in respect of the accounting period. Neither the company nor any subsidiary company operates a defined benefit scheme.
| 1.8 | Research and development expenditure |
| | With the exception of expenditure associated with the development of the Database (see note 1.5) research and development expenditure is charged to profits in the period in which it is incurred. |
| 1.9 | Foreign exchange gains and losses |
| | Company: Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Any gains and losses arising on the settlement of any transactions are taken to the profit and loss account. |
| | Group: The balance sheets of overseas subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. The profit and loss accounts of overseas subsidiaries are translated at the average rate of exchange for the financial year. Any exchange gains and losses arising on the retranslation of opening net assets and arising as a result of differences between average and year end exchange rates are shown in the Statement of Total Recognised Gains and Losses. |
| 1.10 | Operating lease payments |
| | Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis of the lease term. |
| 1.11 | Provisions for liabilities and charges |
| | A provision is recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. |

| 1. | Accounting policies (continued) |
Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences where the transactions or events that give the group an obligation to pay more tax in the future, or a right to pay less tax in the future, have occurred by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is more likely than not that they will be recovered. Deferred tax is measured using rates of tax that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.
With the exception of share options granted on 22 June 2012 all share options have been granted over issued shares held by the ESOP (see note 18).
The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed rateably over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options at the grant date, excluding the impact of any non-market vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in the assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. This estimate is revised at each balance sheet date and the difference is charged or credited to the profit and loss account, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The proceeds received on exercise of the options (net of any directly attributable transaction costs) are credited to equity.

| 18. | MDL ESOP Limited (continued) |
During the year the group had share option schemes falling within the scope of FRS 20. With the exception of the share options granted on 22 June 2012 all share options under these schemes have been granted over issued shares held by the ESOP. The options were granted with a fixed exercise price equal to the market price of the shares at the date of grant. Exercise of options is subject to continued employment within the group. There are no other conditions attached to the options. Options were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model rather than a valuation of the employee services. The expected volatility is based on historic group volatility or an approximation thereto.
