Reductions in the UK corporation tax rate from 21% to 20% (effective from 01
April 2015) has been enacted with a further reduction to 19% with effect from
01 April 2017. This will reduce the Company's future current tax charge
accordingly. Deferred tax has been calculated at the rate of 19% substantively
enacted at the balance sheet date. The effect of this change is that the
deferred tax asset as at 30 June 2017 has been calculated based on the rate of
19% substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
The Group has tax losses, subject to agreement by HM Revenue and Customs, in
the sum of £18.74m (2016: £16.76m), which are available for offset against
future profits of the same trade. There is no expiry date for tax losses. An
appropriate asset will be recognised when the Group can demonstrate a
reasonable expectation of sufficient taxable profits to utilise the temporary
differences.
The June 2015 budget announced that the rate will reduce further to 18% by
2020.
As a result, the effective tax rate used to calculate the current tax for the
period ended 30 June 2017 was 19.75% (2016: 20.00%)
4 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss after taxation of
£2.17m (2016: profit of £1.15m) by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares in issue during the year of 9,483,815 (2016: 9,162,170). These weighted
share figures have been adjusted to reflect the 50:1 consolidation that took
place in the year. Unexercised options over the ordinary shares are not
included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as they are
anti-dilutive.
