Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaciion price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest meihod, less provision for impaimient. A provision for the impainnent of trade debtors is established ￿'hen there is objeciive evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original ternls of the receivables. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits. and other short-terni highly liquid investments that are readily convertible 10 a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Borrowings Interest-bearing borrowings are iniiially recorded at fair value. net of transaction costs.

Financial inslruments Classificulion Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a paty to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Diverse Youth Nl Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Reeognilion and measurement All financial assets and liabiliiies are initiall}, measured at transaciion price (including trdnsaction costs).. except for those financial assets classified as a( fair value through profit or loss: which are iniiially measured at fair value (which is nornially the transac(ion price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a fiiiancing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing trdnsaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future pawients discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the cOntrac￿al rights to the cash flow5 from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset: or c) the charit!. despite having retained some. but not all, significant risk5 and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party. Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. Page 15

Diverse Youth Nl Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Debl instruments Debt instruments w'hich meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method: (a) The contractual return to the holder is (i) a f￿ed amount- (ii) a positive fixed rate or a positive variable rate- or (iii) a combination of a positive or a negative f￿ed rate and a positive variable rate. (b) The contract may provide for repayments of the principal or the return to the holder (but not both) to be linked to a single relevant observable index of general price inflation of the currency in which the debt instrument is denominated, provided such links are not leveraged. (c) The contract tnay provide for a deterniinable variation of the return to the holder during the life of the instrumenL provided that {1) the new rate 5atlsfies condition (a) and the variation is not continuent on future events other than ( l ) a change of a contractual variable rate- (2) to protect the holder auainst credit deterioration of the i55uer; {3) changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant taxation or lam." or (li) the new rate is a market rate of interest and Satisfies condition (a). (d) There is no Contractual provision that could. by its tem)s, result in the holder losing the principal amount or any interest attributable to ihe current period or prior periods. (e) Contractual provisions that permit the issuer to prepay a debt insmiment or pemiit the holder to put it back to the issuer before maturity are not contingent on future events. other than to proiect the holder against the credit deterioration of the issuer or a change in control of the issuer. or 10 proieci the holder or issuer against changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant L￿.atIOn or law. (O Contractual provisions may pemlit the extension of the tenn of the debt instrument, provided that the return to the holder and any other contrac(ual provisions applicable during the extended terni satisfy the conditioiis of paragraphs (a) to (c). Debt instruments that are classified as pa)'able or receivable ￿'1th1n one year on initial recognition and which meet the above conditions are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, net of impainnent. With the exception of some hedging instruments, other debt instruments not meeting these conditions are measured at fair value throuJ] profit or loss. Commitments to make and receive loans which meet the conditions mentioned above are mea5UTed at cost (which may be nil) less itnpairn]ent. Investments Investtnents in non-convertible preference share5 and non-puttable ordinary or Preference 5hare5 (where shares are publicly traded or their fair value is reliably measurable) are measured at fair value through profit OT loss. Where fair value cannot be measured reliably, investments are measured at C05t less impairment. Investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost less impainnent. For investments in subsidiaries acquired for consideration including the issue of shares qualifying for merger relief. cost is measured by reference to the nominal value of the shares issued plus fair value of other consideration. Any premium is ignored. Page 16

Diverse Youth Nl Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Derivalivefinancial inslruments The charity uses derivative financial instnllnents to reduce exposure 10 forei￿ exchange risk and interest rate movements. The charity does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of financial activities immediately unless the derivative is desionated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in staiement of financial activities depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. Fair value measuremenl The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique. 3 Income from donations and legacies Unrestricted funds General Restricted funds Total funds Donations and legacies; Donations from individuals Grants, including capital grants.
