Stat8mont of compliance These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland,. Accountlng pollcles Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are prepared in sterling. which is the funCtnal currency of the entity. Judgements and key 50urcè$ of estlmatlon uncortalnty The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make Judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors. including expeclations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumslances. Revenue ro¢ognftlon Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied and services rendered. net of discounts and Value Added Tax. Revenue from the sale of goods is reccgnised when the significant fisks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods): the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the aSslated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably. Revenue from the rendering of services is measured by reference to the stage of completion of the service transaction at the end of the reporting period provided that the outcome can be reliably estimated. When the oulGome cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is recognised only to the extent that it is probable the expense5 recognised will be recovered. Income tax The taxation expense represenls the aggregate amount of Current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting periThJ. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that il relates to iteTns racognised in other comprehensive inGome or direcuy In equity- In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax is measured al the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reports.ng date. Deferred tax recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax 105ses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxablè profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. Intanglble assets Intangible assels are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impainnent losses. Any intangible assets carried at revalued amounls. are recorded at the fair value at Ihe date of revaluation. as determined by reference lo an acts've market. less any subsequent accumulated amortisation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets a¢quired as part of a business comblnation are only recognised separately from goodwill when they arise from contractual or other legal rwJhts. are separable. the expected future economic benefils are probable and Ihe cost or value can measured reliably. Amortlsatlon Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows.. Intangibles 33% straighl line If there Is an Indlcallon that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate. useful lif8 or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisalion is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates. Tangiblo as8et8 Tangible assets are initially recorded al cost. and subsequently slated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is re(wnised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, except to the extent it reverses a revalualion decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profrt or loss. A decrease in the carrwng amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in olher comprehensive income lo the extenl of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in equity in respect of that asset. Where a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in equity in respe¢l of that asset. the excess shall be rec¢)3nised in profit or loss.

Lon9 leasehold propety Fixtures and fittings Equipment 4Yo straight line 5Yo Straight line 20% strah1 line Impairnient of flxad assets review for indicators of impaimient is carried out at each reporting date, wilh the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicator5 exist. Where the Carng value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impainnents are also reviewed for possible reversal at each retthing dale. For the purposes of impairment testing. vthen it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset. an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which Ihe asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallesl identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows thal largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assels. For impairment tesllng of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from Ihe acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. irrespective of whether other assels or liabilities of the company are assigned to those units. Finance lèase3 and hlre purchase contracts Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are recrJ3nised in the statement of financial position as assets and liabilities at the lower of the fair value of the assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments, which is determined at the incepts.on of the lease term. Any initial direct costs of the lease are added to the amount recognised as an asset. Lease payments are apportioned between the finan charges and reduction of the outstanding leas8 liability using the effeclive interest method. Finance charges are allocated to each peri¢xI so as to produce a constant rale of inlerest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: Gmax Trackstars – Organisational Structure Revision and Future Annual Return Submission
I am writing on behalf of Gmax Trackstars to provide an update regarding our current legal and structural status, and to ensure that our forthcoming filings are aligned with the Commission’s expectations.
As your case records will show, Gmax Trackstars has been engaged in a process of legal structure revision and transition , following guidance received during recent communications with the Charity Commission. This restructuring was initiated to ensure that our governance, operational model and public benefit framework are fully compliant, sustainable, and appropriate for the scope of our charitable activities.
Following your advice, we are proceeding with the establishment and registration of:
Gmax Trackstars (London)
(proposed charity structure name)
This revised structure will serve as the primary charitable entity through which our programmes, governance, reporting and compliance obligations will be managed going forward.
We therefore wish to confirm that:
-
The application for charitable status for Gmax Trackstars (London) is being prepared in accordance with the Commission’s requirements;
-
This new structure will become the official entity responsible for submitting our Annual Return , accounts and all future reporting obligations to the Charity Commission;
-
The change reflects a continuation and strengthening of our long-standing work in community sport, youth development and social impact, rather than a cessation of our activities.
We are committed to ensuring that this transition is transparent, compliant and consistent with Charity Commission expectations. We will continue to cooperate fully and provide any further documentation or clarification as required.
If you need additional information or updated governance documents relating to our restructure, we will be happy to supply them.
Thank you for your guidance and continued support during this process.
Yours faithfully, Mark Lancaster CEO
Gmax Trackstars
