          HOT ROCKS INVESTMENTS PLC ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
          FOR THE PERIODED 30 SEPTEMBER 2018 
 
1 Financial Information 
*********************** 
 
       The financial information set out above does not constitute statutory 
accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. It has 
   been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the recognition 
 and measurement criteria of the International Financial Reporting Standards 
          (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. 
 
    The accounting policies used in the preparation of this set of condensed 
       interim financial statements are consistent with those set out in the 
     Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018. 
    Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2018 were approved by the 
      Board of Directors on 31 August 2018 and delivered to the Registrar of 
      Companies. The report of the independent auditor on those accounts was 
          unqualified. 
 
The financial information for the six months ended 30 September 2018 has not 
     been reviewed. As permitted, the Company has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 
          "Interim Financial Statements" in preparing this interim financial 
          information. 
 
          Risks and Uncertainties 
 
 The Board continuously assesses and monitors the key risks of the business. 
   The key risks that could affect the Company's medium-term performance and 
   the factors that mitigate those risks have not substantially changed from 
          those discussed in the Financial Statements to 31 March 2018. 
 
          Critical accounting estimates 
 
      The preparation of the condensed interim financial statements requires 
       management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 
   amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and 
liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Significant items subject to 
 estimates are set out in the accounting policies of the Company's Financial 
          Statements to 31 March 2018.
