How to Fill In a Gibraltar Cash Flow Statement Template

A cash flow statement shows how cash actually moved through a business during a period, split into operating, investing and financing activities. It is a useful complement to the profit and loss account, because a business can be profitable on paper while still running short of cash.

Gibraltar companies preparing full FRS 102 accounts, or simply wanting a clearer view of liquidity, use the same three-way split this template follows.

What is a cash flow statement?

A cash flow statement reconciles the opening and closing cash position for a period by showing net cash generated or used across three categories: operating activities (day-to-day trading), investing activities (buying or selling long-term assets), and financing activities (borrowing, repaying and paying dividends).

What to include

  • Operating profit — the starting point for operating cash flow, taken from the profit and loss account.
  • Depreciation and amortisation — a non-cash expense added back because it reduced profit but didn’t use cash.
  • Change in working capital — the net cash effect of changes in stocks, debtors and creditors.
  • Tax paid — actual tax payments made during the period.
  • Purchase of property, plant and equipment — cash spent on fixed assets (investing activities).
  • New bank loans — cash received from new borrowing (financing activities).
  • Dividends paid — cash paid out to shareholders (financing activities).
  • Net increase in cash and cash equivalents — the total movement in cash for the period across all three sections.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Start with operating profit from the profit and loss account.
  2. Add back non-cash items such as depreciation and amortisation.
  3. Adjust for the change in working capital — movements in stocks, debtors and creditors.
  4. Deduct tax actually paid during the period to reach net cash from operating activities.
  5. List investing cash flows, such as purchases of property, plant and equipment.
  6. List financing cash flows, such as new bank loans drawn down and dividends paid.
  7. Sum operating, investing and financing activities to reach the net increase or decrease in cash and cash equivalents.
  8. Check the net movement reconciles with the change in the cash balance shown on the balance sheet.

Gibraltar-specific rules

A cash flow statement is a standard part of a full FRS 102 accounts pack for Gibraltar companies that don’t qualify for the small companies’ or micro-entity exemptions, since Gibraltar follows the UK GAAP suite. Companies applying the simplified Section 1A regime or FRS 105 as a micro-entity are generally not required to present a separate cash flow statement.

Even where it isn’t a mandatory filing document with Companies House Gibraltar, many directors and lenders still expect to see a cash flow statement internally, since it highlights liquidity issues that the profit and loss account and balance sheet alone can obscure.
