NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The financial statement have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting. In determining whether the Company’s financial statements can be prepared on the going concern basis the Director has considered all factors likely to affect its future development, performance and financial position.
The going concern status of the Company is dependent on the group being able to provide continued support to its subsidiary and therefore the group itself being a concern.The Company has generated a net loss of £109,932 during the year ended 31 December 2022, at that date, the company’s total liabilities exceeded its total assets by £1,927,119. The Company owes £2,810,354 to fellow group company, RealNetworks GmbH (Austria), which is not due for repayment until 2034.
Real Networks LLC ("RN LLC") have confirmed that they have no current intention to liquidate the company in the foreseeable future or to cease trading and as such have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. It has committed to providing financial support to the company as is necessary to enable it to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.
We confirm the following matters of material uncertainty in relation to going concern of the ultimate parent which were disclosed in the consolidated accounts of the group:
“Liquidity and going concern – RN Inc incurred an operating loss of $23.1 million for the period from January 1, 2022 to December 21, 2022, and had an accumulated deficit of $596.3 million as of December 21, 2022. RealNetworks LLC incurred an operating loss of $0.6 million for the period December 22, 2022 to December 31, 2022, and had an accumulated deficit of $0.6 million at December 31, 2022.
“RealNetworks LLC had unrestricted cash totalling $5.9 million as of December 31, 2022, which included approximately $4.4 million of cash held by its foreign subsidiaries outside the U.S. The Company has evaluated its current liquidity position in light of its history of declining revenue and operating losses as well as its near-term expectations of net negative cash flows from operating activities, which have continued into 2023. Moreover, its operating forecast is largely dependent upon the growth of its emerging SAFR and KONTXT products, and on factors that are outside of its control such as the actions of its competitors. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months from the date these consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.”
Following consideration of the above factors the Director has considered that it is appropriate to apply the going concern basis.
Revenue represents amounts receivable for good and services net of VAT and is recognised in the month in which the company supplies the related ring back tone or support services.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional currency is EUR. This differs from the presentational currency which is GBP. The reason for the difference is that the operations of the entity and the primary economic environment in which it operates is EUR. The company is based and registered in England and Wales so presents its financial statements in GBP. These accounts have been restated to reflect this change in the earliest period of comparatives, as explained in Note 12.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.

The average monthly number of employees, excluding directors, during the year was 0 (2021 -0).

The parent of the smallest group for which consolidated financial statements are drawn up is RealNetworks, LLC., a company incorporated in the USA. The address of their registered office is: PO Box 91123, Seattle, WA 98111-9223, USA.
Management have concluded that the entity's functional currency is EUR and that this change occurred prior to 1 January 2021. As a result the comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current year's financial statements as a result of this revised conclusion. Such reclassification does not have any effect on the total comprehensive income, net assets or equity of the previous year.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
The auditors' report on the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 was unqualified.
|
In their report, the auditors emphasised the following matter without qualifying their report:
We draw attention to note 2.3. in the financial statements, which indicates the Company has net liabilities at the year end of £1,927,119. The Company is dependent on the continuing support and funding from group management to continue as a going concern. They have confirmed that they have no current intention to liquidate the company in the foreseeable future or to cease trading and as such have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. They will ensure the company is able to meet its liabilities as they fall due and continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these accounts.
Additionally in note 2.3 the Company has disclosed information about a material uncertainty disclosed in the latest parent company reporting.
As stated in note 2.3, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2.3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The audit report was signed on 15 December 2023 by Andrew Wooding FCA (Senior statutory auditor) on behalf of Menzies LLP.
