Report of the Board of Directors For the year ended 31 March 2026
The Board of Directors presents its report and audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2026. The Board of Directors has chosen to include the strategic report within their report in accordance with section 414C(11).
Legal Status
Atrium Homes is a company limited by guarantee under the Companies Act 2006 No.SC190351 and is governed by its Articles of Association. Atrium Homes is a registered Scottish Charity with the charity number SC028506, and a registered social landlord with the number 305.
Principal Activities
The principal activity of Atrium Homes is the provision and management of quality affordable rented accommodation.
Our Strategic Aims
In April 2026 we published our new group corporate strategy for 2026 to 2031.
The Atrium Group mission is to “create better life chances for people by delivering quality and affordable homes in thriving neighbourhoods”. Our vision is that “We will transform our homes, places and the way we work”.
This vision sets out our ambitions to:
-
Deliver good quality, affordable and easy to heat homes that customers want to live in now and in the future;
-
Create safe and appealing neighbourhoods people are proud to live in; and
-
Empower and develop our staff to focus on customer needs by delivering new, smarter ways of working.
To deliver our vision over the next five years, our objectives will be:
-
To deliver quality homes and a sustainable asset base;
-
To enhance customer experiences and improve our product offer;
-
To transform our operating model and develop our people;
-
To optimise our financial position for investment; and
-
To create opportunities to deliver new homes.
Business Model and Background
Atrium began its landlord activities on 14 September 2000, when it bought 909 housing units and 99 lockup garages from Scottish Homes, at a cost of £8.5m.
Since 2005, Atrium has pursued a strategy of prudently managed growth and as well as delivering core customer services, investing in stock and managing its financial health, Atrium has added to its portfolio through new build activity and selective acquisitions.
To support its developments and investment in tenants’ homes, Atrium secured borrowings via facilities with the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Nationwide Building Society.
Financial and Operational Highlights
The Company made a surplus of £1,376k (2025: £1,460k). The main source of income for the Company continued to be rental income from social lettings. This comprises 95.1% (2025: 95.3%) of total income received in the year. During the year Atrium Homes invested this surplus, supplemented by cash reserves and borrowings on £3,739k of improvements to tenants’ homes.
Atrium Homes continues to grow its balance sheet and as a result, reduce its gearing. Without the drawdown of the £6,3m loan (detailed below) cash balances would have reduced in the year by £1,258k, mainly due to the Homes Fit for 21[st] Century Living Standard (HFF21CLS) works successfully

Atrium Homes
Report of the Board of Directors
For the year ended 31 March 2026
completing 118 properties in the year as well as a number of properties receiving external wall insulation to improve their energy efficiency, supported by Grant funding from the Scottish Government.
During the year Atrium drew down £6.3m of new loan funding from the Royal Bank of Scotland. This money will ensure that we can continue to invest in the quality of our tenants’ homes over the coming years, and is reflected in our year end bank balance. The level of cash held by the Company continues to be above the minimum level required by the Treasury Management Policy.
The defined benefit pension liability at 31 March 2026 is £401k (2025: £440k). This has resulted in a decrease in the liability at 31 March 2026 of £39k. This decrease in liability is due to market conditions at year end resulting in the plan liabilities decreasing by the end of the year. This change in value does not affect the cash outgoings of Atrium Homes and has no impact on our financial covenants.
Future Prospects
Atrium Homes acquired six homes on the open market with the aid of grant funding during 2025/26. Atrium is committed to exploring opportunities to deliver new homes through new build and acquisition.
An important part of our activities involves keeping customers informed. In Summer 2024 we carried out a Customer Satisfaction survey and we reviewed the results of this to identify improvements to our service that we might be able to make. We undertook a Day of Connectivity in Summer 2025, visiting tenants in their homes, and asked them what they think our priorities for our strategy should be. This feedback was able to shape the development of our 2026-2031 group corporate strategy. We continue to encourage tenants to engage with us through our Armchair Panel and Tenant Scrutiny Group.
Governance
Atrium Homes has continued to strengthen its governance arrangements within the year, with Board training, and new appointments. Atrium Homes Board was again able to present a positive Annual Assurance Statement to the Scottish Housing Regulator before 31 October 2025.
We welcomed three new Board members during the year and one Board member stepped down. We continue to focus on succession planning to ensure our governing body has the necessary blend of skills and experience to discharge its duties.
Risk Management Policy
The Board has a formal risk management process to assess, monitor and manage business risks. This involves identifying the types of risks that the Company faces, prioritising them in terms of potential impact and likelihood of occurrence, in addition to identifying means of mitigating these risks. As part of this process the Board has reviewed the adequacy of the Company's current internal controls.
The Board has set policies on internal controls which cover the following:
-
Consideration of the type of risks the Company faces;
-
The level of risks they regard as acceptable;
-
The likelihood of the risks concerned materialising;
-
The Company's ability to reduce the impact and incidence on the business of risks that do materialise;
-
Clarified the responsibility of management to implement the Board's policies and to identify and evaluate risks for their consideration; and
-
Embedded the control system so it becomes part of the Company's culture.
The Board has identified the main areas of risk for the Company and has identified specific controls around these in order to mitigate risks to an acceptable level. Assurance is gained on the effectiveness of these controls through a combination of internal and external audits which are reviewed by the Board.

Report of the Board of Directors
For the year ended 31 March 2026
Internal Audit
Cameron Audit Ltd (formerly Quinn Internal Audit Ltd) was appointed as the Internal Auditor of Atrium Homes at the start of the 2024. During the year they reviewed our approaches to Regulatory Compliance and Governance, Tenant Safety and Treasury Management, providing reassurance to Board that controls and systems in all three areas are adequate. A number of suggestions for strengthening our approach in each of these areas have been adopted and will be implemented as part of our commitment to ongoing improvement.
Key Performance Indicators (financial and non-financial)
The Board monitors the Company's performance against a number of financial and non-financial indicators. These include net surplus, cash balances held, rental losses due to voids and bad debts, level of arrears and balance sheet ratios, as well as a range of operational targets. Performance of these KPIs against budget and targets set has been positive during the year.
Going Concern
The Board has reviewed the results for this year and has reviewed the financial projections for the next five years. These include the cost of proposed improvements to our tenants’ homes. The funding requirements required for this work have also been considered.
The organisation’s financial projections are being reviewed regularly and stress tested as we continue to deal with the impacts of the socio-economic uncertainties both locally and on an international level.
The organisation has worked with its lenders to make changes to its financial covenants which allow us greater flexibility in our capital investment programme.
The Board has concluded that the present arrangements in place for the Company are adequate for the Company to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, it continues to adopt the Going Concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Disclosure of Information to the Auditor
The members of the Board of Directors at the date of approval of these financial statements have confirmed, as far as they are aware, that there is no relevant information of which the auditors are unaware. They confirm that they have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that it has been communicated to the auditors.
Auditor
Wbg (Audit) Limited was appointed five years ago. The audit service was competitively tendered during 2026 and Wbg (Audit) Limited has been awarded the new contract.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies entitled to the small companies’ exemption.

Statement of Board of Directors’ Responsibilities For the year ended 31 March 2026
The Board of Directors is responsible for preparing the Report of the Board of Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Board of Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
Under company law the Board of Directors must not approve the financial statements unless it is satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period.
In preparing those financial statements, the Board of Directors is required to:
-
a. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
b. make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
c. prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The Board of Directors is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Atrium Homes website. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

the reliability of financial information used within the Company, or for publication;
-
the maintenance of proper accounting records; and
-
the safeguarding of assets against unauthorised use or disposition.
It is the Board’s responsibility to establish and maintain systems of internal financial control. Such systems can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material financial misstatement or loss, or failure to meet objectives. Key elements of the Company’s systems include ensuring that:
-
formal policies and procedures are in place, including the ongoing documentation of key systems and rules relating to the delegation of authority which allow the monitoring of controls and restrict the unauthorised use of the Company’s assets;
-
experienced and suitably qualified staff take responsibility for the important business functions and annual appraisal procedures have been established to maintain standards of performance;
-
forecasts and budgets are prepared which allow the Management Team and the Board to monitor the key business risks, financial objectives and progress being made towards achieving the financial plans set for the year and for the medium term;
-
quarterly management accounts are prepared promptly, providing relevant, reliable and up-to-date financial and other information, with significant variances from budget being investigated as appropriate;
-
Regulatory returns are prepared, authorised and submitted promptly to the relevant regulatory bodies;
-
all significant new initiatives, major commitments and investment projects are subject to formal authorisation procedures through the Board;
-
the Finance, Audit & Staffing Sub-Committee receives reports from management and from the external and internal auditors, to provide reasonable assurance that control procedures are in place and are being followed, and that a general review of the major risks facing the Company is undertaken; and
-
formal procedures have been established for instituting appropriate action to correct any weaknesses identified through internal and external audit reports.
The effectiveness of the Company’s system of internal financial control has been reviewed by the Board for the year ended 31 March 2026. No weaknesses were found in internal financial controls which resulted in material losses, contingencies, or uncertainties which require disclosure in these financial statements or in the auditor's report on the financial statements.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Atrium Homes on Internal Financial Controls For the year ended 31 March 2026
In addition to our audit of the Financial Statements, we have reviewed your statement on page 8 concerning the Company’s compliance with the information required by the Regulatory Standards in respect of internal financial controls contained within the publication “Our Regulatory Framework” and associated Regulatory Advisory Notes which are issued by the Scottish Housing Regulator.
Basis of Opinion
We carried out our review having regard to the requirements to corporate governance matters within Bulletin 2006/5 issued by the Financial Reporting Council through enquiry of certain members of the Management Committee and Officers of the Company and examination of relevant documents. The Bulletin does not require us to review the effectiveness of the Company’s procedures for ensuring compliance with the guidance notes, nor to investigate the appropriateness of the reason given for noncompliance.
Opinion
In our opinion the Statement on Internal Financial Control on page 8 has provided the disclosures required by the relevant Regulatory Standards within the publication “Our Regulatory Framework” and associated Regulatory Advisory Notes issued by the Scottish Housing Regulator in respect of internal financial controls and is consistent with the information which came to our attention as a result of our audit work on the Financial Statements.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Atrium Homes For the year ended 31 March 2026
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Atrium Homes (the ‘company’) for the year ended 31 March 2026 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Changes in Reserves, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s affairs as at 31 March 2026, and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, Part 6 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 and the Determination of Accounting Requirements 2019.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the report of the board of directorsand financial statements. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the report of the board of directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report and the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Atrium Homes
For the year ended 31 March 2026
-
2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the directors were not entiteld to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies exemption in preparing the report of the board of directors.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities
including fraud
We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures in response to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations we considered the following:
-
The nature of the company and the industry, control environment and business performance; and
-
Our enquiries of management about their identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities
Based on our understanding of the company and the industry we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to, but were not limited to;
-
Regulations and legislation pertinent to the company’s industry operations including compliance with the Scottish Housing Regulator; and
-
UK tax legislation
We considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material impact on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations which have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements, such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of management override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to;
-
Posting inappropriate journal entries; and
-
Management bias in accounting estimates
Audit response to the risks identified:
Our procedures to respond to the risks identified included the following:
- Gaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company

Atrium Homes
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Atrium Homes For the year ended 31 March 2026
-
and the industry in which it operates including the requirements of the Scottish Housing Regulator;
-
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements;
-
Enquiring of management and legal advisors concerning actual and potential litigation and claims;
-
In addressing the risk of fraud as a result of management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments’ assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and, evaluating business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. We scrutinised the general ledger for the following:
-
Duplicate journal entries
-
Unbalanced journal entries
-
Journals with detail which included key phrases or words
-
Journals posted at unusual times
-
-
Assessment of key judgements and estimates included but were not limited to the following areas:
-
Pension liability
-
Bad debt provision
-
We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members, and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed noncompliance with laws and regulations is from events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would be to become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
LEGAL STATUS
The Company is registered as a company limited by guarantee under the Companies Act 2006 and is registered with the Scottish Housing Regulator under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010.
The address of the Company’s registered office and principal place of business is Atrium House, 14 Central Avenue, Shortlees, Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire, KA1 4PS.
The Company’s principal activities are the provision and management of quality affordable rented accommodation.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (UK GAAP) including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”), the Housing SORP 2018 “Statement of Recommended Practice for Registered Housing Providers” and the comply with the Determination of Accounting Requirements 2019, and under the historical cost convention.
The financial statements are prepared in Sterling (£).
The company is a Public Benefit Entity (PBE).
CONSOLIDATION EXEMPTION
The Directors have taken advantage of the exemption under Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 of the necessity to prepare consolidated financial statements of the group.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGEMENT
Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make critical judgements and estimates concerning the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience, advice from qualified experts and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are included below.
Critical accounting estimates
Recoverable amount of rent arrears and other debtors
The Company assesses the recoverability of rent arrears through a detailed assessment process which considers: tenant payment history, arrangements in place, and court action.
Useful lives of properties, plant and equipment
The Company assesses the useful lives of its properties, plant and equipment and estimates the annual charge to be depreciated based on this.
Components of housing properties
The Company assesses the useful lives of major components of its housing property with reference to surveys carried out by external qualified surveyors.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
- ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGEMENT (continued)
Valuation of property and impairment review
The Company’s properties are reviewed annually for indicators of impairment in line with the Company’s impairment policy.
Obligations under a defined benefit pension scheme
The Company participates in the Scottish Housing Association Defined Benefits Pension Scheme and retirement benefits in employees of the Company are funded by the contributions from all participating employers and employees in the scheme. Payments are made in accordance with periodic calculations by consulting Actuaries and are based on pension costs applicable across the various participating Associations taken as a whole.
In determining the Company’s share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the Scottish Housing Association Defined Benefit Scheme (SHAPS), the valuation prepared by the Scheme actuary includes estimations in relation to life expectancy, salary growth, inflation and the discount rate on corporate bonds. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the liability and the annual defined benefit expenses (as analysed in Note 23).
Critical areas of judgement
Categorisation of Housing Properties
In the judgement of the Board of Directors the entirety of the Company’s housing stock is held for social benefit and is therefore classified as Property, Plant and Equipment in accordance with FRS 102.
Identification of cash generating units for impairment assessment purposes
The Company considers its cash-generating units to be the schemes in which it manages its housing property for asset management purposes.
Financial Instrument Break Clause
The Company has considered the break clauses attached to the Financial Instruments that it has in place for its loan funding. In the judgement of the Board these break clauses do not cause the Financial Instrument to be classified as a Complex Financial Instrument, and therefore they meet the definition of a Basic Financial Instrument.
Categorisation of leases
In categorising leases as finance leases or operating leases, management makes judgements as to whether significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the Company as lessee, or the lessee, where the Association is a lessor.
GOING CONCERN
The Board has reviewed the results for this year and has reviewed the financial projections for the next 5 years.
The Company has sufficient financial resources and availability of borrowing to fund its ambitious programme of investment to improve the quality of tenants’ homes.
The Board of Directors therefore has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational activities for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
- ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
TURNOVER AND REVENUE RECOGNITION
Turnover comprises rental and service charge income receivable in the period, other services provided at the invoice value (excluding VAT) and revenue grants receivable in the period.
Rental income is recognised from the point when properties under development reach practical completion or otherwise become available for letting, net of any voids.
Revenue grants are receivable when the conditions for receipt of agreed grant funding have been met.
GOVERNMENT GRANTS
Government grants include grants receivable from the Scottish Government, local authorities and other government bodies. Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met, and the grants will be received.
Government grants received for housing properties are recognised in income over the useful economic life of the structure of the asset and, where applicable, the individual components of the structure (excluding land) under the accruals model.
On disposal of an asset for which government grant was received, if there is no obligation to repay the grant, then any unamortised grant remaining is derecognised as a liability and recognised as income. Where there is a requirement to repay a grant, a liability is included in the Statement of Financial Position to recognise this obligation.
OTHER GRANTS
Grants received from non-government sources are recognised using the performance model. Grants are recognised as income when the associated performance conditions are met.
OTHER INCOME
Interest income
Interest income is accrued on a time-apportioned basis, by reference to the principal outstanding at the effective interest rate.
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS – HOUSING PROPERTIES
Housing properties are properties for the provision of social housing or to otherwise provide social benefit and are principally properties available for rent.
Completed housing properties are stated at deemed cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Cost includes the cost of acquiring land and buildings, and expenditure incurred during the development period.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
- ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Exploratory costs for prospective developments have not been capitalised and are expensed to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year incurred.
Works to existing properties which replace a component that has been treated separately for depreciation purposes, along with those works that enhance the economic benefits of the assets, are capitalised as improvements. Such enhancements can occur if improvements result in either:
-
An increase in rental income;
-
A material reduction in future maintenance costs; or
-
A significant extension to the life of the property.
DEPRECIATION OF HOUSING PROPERTIES
Freehold land or assets under construction are not depreciated.
The Company separately identifies the major components of its housing properties and charges depreciation so as to write-down the cost of each component to its estimated residual value, on a straight line basis over the following years:
| Structure | 60 years |
|---|---|
| Land | Nil |
| Assets under construction | Nil |
| Windows | 30 years |
| Doors | 25 years |
| Kitchens | 15 years |
| Bathrooms | 30 years |
| Roof | 40 years |
| Boilers | 15 years |
| Central Heating | 30 years |
| Electrical works | 25 years |
IMPAIRMENTS OF FIXED ASSETS
An assessment is made at each reporting date of whether there are indications that a fixed asset (including housing properties) may be impaired or that an impairment loss previously recognised has fully or partially reversed. If such indications exist, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.
Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts, being the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use of the asset based on its service potential, are recognised as impairment losses in the income and expenditure account.
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Reversals of impairment losses are recognised in income and expenditure. On reversal of an impairment loss, the depreciation or amortisation is adjusted to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount (less any residual value) over its remaining useful life.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
OTHER TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of each asset on a straight line basis over its expected useful life, as follows:
Office Premises 3.33% Furniture and Fittings 10% to 20% Computer Equipment 20% Office Equipment 33%
BORROWING COSTS
All borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.
INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
Intangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost, net of amortisation and any impairment losses. Amortisation is provided on all intangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of each asset on a straight line basis over its expected useful life, as follows:
Software under Development 20%
Software under Development is not amortised until it is brought into use, at which point it will be amortised over its remaining useful life.
BORROWING COSTS
All borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.
TAXATION
Atrium Homes has charitable status and is registered with the Office of Scottish Charities Regulator and is therefore exempt from paying Corporation Tax on charitable activities.
VALUE ADDED TAX
The Company is VAT registered, however a large proportion of income, namely rents, is exempt for VAT purposes therefore giving rise to a Partial Exemption calculation. Expenditure is shown inclusive of VAT.
DEPOSITS AND LIQUID RESOURCES
Cash comprises cash in hand and deposits repayable on demand less overdrafts repayable on demand. Liquid resources are current asset investments that are disposable without curtailing or disrupting the business and are readily convertible into known amounts of cash at or close to their carrying value.
LEASES
Operating Leases
All other leases are operating leases and the annual rentals are charged to income and expenditure on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.
Employees are entitled to carry forward up to 5 days of any unused holiday entitlement at the reporting date. The cost of any unused entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
The best estimate of the expenditure required to settle an obligation for termination benefits is recognised immediately as an expense when the RSL is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
RETIREMENT BENEFITS
Defined benefit plans
The Company participates in a funded multi-employer defined benefit scheme, the Scottish Housing Association Pension Scheme (SHAPS).
The scheme assets are measured at fair value. Scheme liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit credit method and are discounted at appropriate high quality corporate bond rates.
As at the year ended 31 March 2026, the net defined benefit pension deficit liability was £401k, which has been included within the pensions liability in the financial statements.
In the year ended 31 March 2026, the current service cost and costs from settlements and curtailments are charged against operating surplus. Interest is calculated on the net defined benefit liability. Remeasurements are reported in other comprehensive income. Refer to Note 23 for more details.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102, in full, to all of its financial instruments.
The Company’s debt instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and are offset only when the Company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
FINANCIAL ASSETS
Debtors
Debtors which are receivable within one year and which do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price. Trade debtors are subsequently measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled and any impairment losses.
Where the arrangement with a trade debtor constitutes a financing transaction, the debtor is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Atrium Homes ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2026
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
A provision for impairment of debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the amounts due will not be collected according to the original terms of the contract. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss for the excess of the carrying value of the trade debtor over the present value of the future cash flows discounted using the original effective interest rate. Subsequent reversals of an impairment loss that objectively relate to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, are recognised immediately in income and expenditure.
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
Trade creditors
Trade creditors payable within one year that do not constitute a financing transaction are initially measured at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled.
Where the arrangement with a trade creditor constitutes a financing transaction, the creditor is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument.
PROVISIONS
Provisions are recognised when the RSL has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event which it is probable will result in the transfer of economic benefits and that obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation.

23. RETIREMENT BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS
The company participates in the Scottish Housing Associations’ Pension Scheme (the Scheme), a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 150 non-associated employers. The Scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK.
The Scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK.
The last triennial valuation of the scheme for funding purposes was carried out as at 30 September 2024. This valuation revealed a deficit of £79.5m. A Recovery Plan was put in place to eliminate the deficit which runs to 31 March 2030.
The Scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arrangement'. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the Scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the Scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the Scheme.
For accounting purposes, a valuation of the scheme is carried out with an effective date of 30 September each year. The liability figures from this valuation are rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March to 28 February inclusive.
The latest accounting valuation was carried out with an effective date of 30 September 2025. The liability figures from this valuation were rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March 2026 to 28 February 2027 inclusive.
The liabilities are compared, at the relevant accounting date, with the company’s fair share of the Scheme’s total assets to calculate the company’s net deficit or surplus.
