Includes £180K of non-recurring non-cash merger accounting adjustments
Reverse Take Over (RTO) target of suitable quality not yet identified
Board to expand acquisition search to include FinTech companies

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

The Board are frustrated and disappointed by management’s inability to accelerate growth of the Company. 2023 did not produce the revenue growth that management had targeted, and the Board is disappointed that it has, to date, failed to identify an RTO of sufficient quality to justify a transaction.

The Company’s accounts also include a total of £228K non-recurring costs, made up £49K of one-off severance costs, as well as £180K of non-cash merger accounting adjustments to intangible assets.

The Board will redouble its efforts to identify and execute a Reverse Take Over transaction, while commensurately cutting costs further. In parallel, the Board will expand its transaction search, to include other FinTech companies.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Details of all related party transactions are set out in note 17 to the financial statements.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

The directors recognise that commercial activities invariably involve an element of risk. A number of the risks to which the business is exposed, such as the condition of the UK and Swiss domestic economies in relation to asset management and investment in systems, are beyond the Company’s influence. However, such risk areas are monitored and appropriate mitigating action, such as reviewing the substance and timing of the Company’s operational plans, is taken wherever practicable in response to significant changes. The directors consider the risk areas the Company is exposed to in the light of prevailing economic conditions and the risk areas set out in this section are subject to review.

In relation to asset management, the Company’s approach to risk reflects the Company’s granular business model and position in the market and involves the expertise of its directors, management and third-party advisers. Operational progress and key investment and disposal decisions are considered in regular management team meetings as well as being subject to informal peer review.

Higher level risks and financial exposures are subject to constant monitoring. Major investment and disposal decisions are subject to review by the directors in accordance with a protocol set by the Board.

The Company is dependent upon the Directors, and in particular, Mr C. Duncan Soukup, who serves as the Chairman, to identify potential acquisition opportunities and to execute any acquisition. The unexpected loss of the services of Mr Soukup or the other Directors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to identify potential acquisition opportunities and to execute an acquisition.

The Company may invest in or acquire unquoted companies, joint ventures or projects which, amongst other things, may be leveraged, have limited operating histories, have limited financial resources or may require additional capital.

FINANCIAL RISKS

Details of the financial instrument risks and strategy of the Company are set out in note 19.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

A summary of the key risks and mitigation strategies is below:

Rank	Risk	Mitigation
1.	Insufficient cash resources to meet liabilities, continue as a going concern and finance key projects.	Short term and annual business plans are prepared and are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
2.	Loss of key management/staff resulting in failure to identify and secure potential investment opportunities and meet contractual requirements.	Regular review of both the Board’s and key management’s abilities. Review of salaries and benefits including long term incentives and ongoing communication with key individuals.
3.	Failure to maintain strong and effective relations with key stakeholders in investments resulting in loss of contracts or value.	The Board and senior management seek to establish and maintain an open and transparent dialogue with key stakeholders.
4.	Failure to comply with law and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate.	Key management are professionally qualified. In addition the Company appoints relevant professional advisers (legal, tax, accounting etc) in the jurisdictions in which we operate.
5.	Significant changes in the political environment, including the impact of the conflict in Ukraine and Gaza, results in loss of resources/market and/or business failure.	The Group is currently poised to take advantage of disruption to the global economy with a low cost base and flexibility to scale up as and when the economy recovers. Increased focus on compliance within the financial investment world will benefit the company long term.

DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The Directors have elected to prepare the financial statements for the Company in accordance with UK Adopted International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”).

The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company, for safeguarding the assets and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

International Accounting Standard 1 requires that financial statements present fairly for each financial period the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This requires the faithful representation of the effects of transactions, other events and conditions in accordance with the definitions and recognition criteria for assets, liabilities, income and expenses set out in the International Accounting Standards Board’s ‘Framework for the preparation and presentation of financial statements’. In virtually all circumstances, a fair presentation will be achieved

by compliance with all applicable International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union. A fair presentation also requires the Directors to:

select and apply appropriate accounting policies;
present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable information;
provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in UK adopted IFRSs is insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance; and
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.

All of the current Directors have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any information needed by the Company’s auditors for the purposes of their audit and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.The Directors are not aware of any relevant audit information of which the auditors are unaware.

The financial statements are published on the Group’s website. The maintenance and integrity of the Group’s website is the responsibility of the Directors. The Directors’ responsibility also extends to the ongoing integrity of the financial statements contained therein.

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

We confirm that to the best of our knowledge:

•he financial statements, prepared in accordance with the Relevant Financial Reporting Framework, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Company and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole;
The strategic report/directors report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Company, and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face; and
The Annual Report and financial statements, taken as a whole, are fair, balanced and understandable and provide the information necessary for shareholders to assess the Group’s position and performance, business model and strategy.

AGM

The Annual General Meeting will be held at Anjuna, 28 Avenue de la Liberté, 06360 Éze France on 12 June 2024.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

Anemoi International Ltd. (“Anemoi” or the “Company”) is a company registered on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.

The Company is subject to, and complies with, the relevant Financial Conduct Authority’s (“FCA”) Listing Rules (“Listing Rules”), the Market Abuse Regulation and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority.

On 17 December 2021 the Company confirmed its shares were re-admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s main market.The Board recognises the importance and value for the Company and its shareholders of good corporate governance. The Company Statement on Corporate Governance is in full below.

BOARD OVERVIEW

In formulating the Company’s corporate governance framework, the Board of Directors have reviewed the principles of good governance set out in the QCA code (the Corporate Governance Code for Small and Mid- Sized Quoted Companies 2018 published by the Quoted Companies Alliance) so far as is practicable and to the extent they consider appropriate with regards to the Company’s size, stage of development and resources. However, given the modest size and simplicity of the Company, at present the Board of Directors do not consider it necessary to adopt the QCA code in its entirety but does apply the principles, as set out below.

The purpose of corporate governance is to create value and long-term success of the Group through entrepreneurism, innovation, development and exploration as well as provide accountability and control systems to mitigate risks involved.

COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD AND BOARD COMMITTEES

As at the date of this report, the Board of Anemoi International Ltd. comprises of one Executive Director and three Non- Executive Directors.

BOARD BALANCE

activities. This will be monitored and adjusted to meet the Group’s requirements. The Board is supported by the Audit Committee, Remuneration Committee and Regulatory Compliance Committee, all of which have the necessary character, skills and knowledge to discharge their duties and responsibilities effectively.

Further information about each Director may be found on the Company’s website at https://anemoi-international.com/ investor-relations/board-of-directors/. The Board seeks to ensure that its membership has the skills and experience that it requires for its present and future business needs.

The Board has a procedure allowing Directors to seek independent professional advice in furtherance of their duties, at the Company’s expense.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board meets sufficiently regularly to discharge its duties effectively with a formal schedule of matters specifically reserved for its decision.

Due to the short period of time following the completion of the re-listing and the period end, the Board as it stands did not need to meet. However during the period prior to the relisting and the previous Board composition the Board met on a number of occasions in order to conduct the activity required of the business. During the acquisition of id4 AG and subsequent relisting, the Board met on a weekly basis, The majority of the meetings were on an informal and operational basis with the conclusions appropriately documented.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

During the financial period to 31 December 2023, the Audit Committee consisted of Luca Tomasi (Chairman) and one other director from the Board.

The key functions of the audit committee are for monitoring the quality of internal controls and ensuring that the financial performance of the Group is properly measured and reported on and for reviewing reports from the Company’s auditors relating to the Company’s accounting and internal controls, in all cases having due regard to the interests of Shareholders. The Committee has formal terms of reference.

The auditor, RPG Crouch Chapman, was appointed on 19 April 2023. The firm has indicated its independence to the Board. At present, the Group does not have an internal audit function. However, the committee believes that management has been able to gain assurance as to the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls and risk management procedures.

REMUNERATION COMMITTEE

During the financial period to 31 December 2023, the Remuneration Committee consisted of Luca Tomasi and one other director from the Board. It is responsible for determining the remuneration and other benefits, including bonuses and share based payments, of the Executive Directors, and for

reviewing and making recommendations on the Company’s framework of executive remuneration. The Committee has formal terms of reference.

The remuneration committee is a committee of the Board. It is primarily responsible for making recommendations to the Board on the terms and conditions of service of the executive Directors, including their remuneration and grant of options.

ESG

The Group has not complied with the recommendations of the Taskforce for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) in the current year, as required by LR14.3.27R issued by the Financial Conduct Authority. The Board recognises the importance of climate-related matters and, as our main operating segment is a development stage business, intends to develop a plan to adopt the TCFD recommendations in full over the next few years. With reference to the four pillars of the TCFD recommendations, matters of governance, risk assessment, and strategy have already been covered elsewhere in this report, and the development of metrics and targets is under consideration.

STATEMENT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The corporate governance framework which Anemoi has implemented, including in relation to board leadership and effectiveness, remuneration and internal control, is based upon practices which the board believes are proportionate to the risks inherent to the size and complexity of Anemoi’s operations.

The Board considers it appropriate to adopt the principles of the Quoted Companies Alliance Corporate Governance Code (“the QCA Code”) published in April 2018.The extent of compliance with the ten principles that comprise the QCA Code, together with an explanation of any areas of non-compliance, and any steps taken or intended to move towards full compliance, are set out below:

1. Establish a strategy and business model which promote long-term value for shareholders

The Company is a Holding Company which has in the past and will in the future seek to acquire assets which in the opinion of the Board should generate long term gains for its shareholders.The current strategy and business operations of the Company are set out in the Chairman’s Statement on page 4. Shareholders and potential investors must realise that the objectives set out in that document are simply that; “objectives” and that the Company may without prior notification change these objectives based upon opportunities presented to the Board or market conditions.

The Group’s strategy and business model and amendments thereto, are developed by the Executive Chairman and his senior management team, and approved by the Board. The management team, led by the Executive Chairman, is responsible for implementing the strategy and overseeing management of the business at an operational level.

The Directors believe that this approach will deliver long- term value for shareholders. In executing the Group’s strategy, management will seek to mitigate/hedge risk whenever possible.

As a result of the Board’s view of the market, the Board has adopted a two-pronged approach to future investments:

Opportunistic: where an acquisition or investment exists because of price dislocation (the price of a stock collapses but fundamentals are unaffected) or where the Board identifies a special “off market” opportunity;
Finance: The Board seeks opportunities in the FinTech sector.

The above outlined strategy is subject to change depending on the Board’s findings and prevailing market conditions.

2. Seek to understand and meet shareholder needs and expectations

The Board believes that the Annual Report and Accounts, and the Interim Report published at the half-year, play an important part in presenting all shareholders with an assessment of the Group’s position and prospects. All reports and press releases are published in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website.

3. Take into account wider stakeholder and social responsibilities and their implications for long-term success

The Group is aware of its corporate social responsibilities and the need to maintain effective working relationships across a range of stakeholder groups. These include the Group’s consultants, employees, partners, suppliers, regulatory authorities and entities with whom it has contracted. The Group’s operations and working methodologies take account of the need to balance the needs of all of these stakeholder groups while maintaining focus on the Board’s primary responsibility to promote the success of the Group for the benefit of its members as a whole. The Group endeavours to take account of feedback received from stakeholders, making amendments where appropriate and where such amendments are consistent with the Group’s longer term strategy.

The Group takes due account of any impact that its activities may have on the environment and seeks to minimise this impact wherever possible. Through the various procedures and systems it operates, the Group ensures full compliance with health and safety and environmental legislation relevant to its activities. The Group’s corporate social responsibility approach continues to meet these expectations.

4. Embed effective risk management, considering both opportunities and threats, throughout the organisation

The Board is responsible for the systems of risk management and internal control and for reviewing their effectiveness. The internal controls are designed to manage and whenever possible minimise or eliminate risk and provide reasonable but not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss. Through the activities of the Audit Committee, the effectiveness of these internal controls is reviewed annually.

A budgeting process is completed once a year and is reviewed and approved by the Board. The Group’s results, compared with the budget, are reported to the Board on a regular basis.

The Group maintains appropriate insurance cover in respect of actions taken against the Directors because of their roles, as well as against material loss or claims against the Group. The insured values and type of cover are comprehensively reviewed on a periodic basis.

The senior management team meet regularly to consider new risks and opportunities presented to the Group, making recommendations to the Board and/or Audit Committee as appropriate.

The Board has an established Audit Committee.

The Company receives comments from its external auditors on the state of its internal controls.

The more significant risks to the Group’s operations and the management of these have been disclosed in the Director’s Report on page 5.

5. Maintain the Board as a well-functioning, balanced team led by the Chair

The Board currently comprises three non-executive Directors, and an Executive Chairman. Directors’ biographies are set out in the Board of Directors section of the Company’s website.

All of the Directors are subject to election by shareholders at the first Annual General Meeting after their appointment to the Board and will continue to seek re-election every year.

The Board is responsible to the shareholders for the proper management of the Group and, in normal circumstances,

meets at least four times a year to set the overall direction and strategy of the Group, to review operational and financial performance and to advise on management appointments.

The Board considers itself to be sufficiently independent.The QCA Code suggests that a board should have at least two independent Non-executive Directors. Both of the Non- executive Directors who sat on the Board of the Company at the year-end are regarded as independent under the QCA Code’s guidance for determining such independence.

Non-executive Directors receive their fees in the form of a basic cash fee based on attendance at board calls and board meetings. Directors are eligible for bonuses. The current remuneration structure for the Board’s Non-executive Directors is deemed to be proportionate.

6. Ensure that between them, the directors have the necessary up-to-date experience, skills and capabilities

The Board considers that the Non-executive Directors are of sufficient competence and calibre to add strength and objectivity to its activities, and bring considerable experience in technical, operational and financial matters.

The Company has put in place an Audit Committee as well as a Remuneration Committee.

The Board regularly reviews the composition of the Board to ensure that it has the necessary breadth and depth of skills to support the on-going development of the Group.

The Chairman requires that the Directors’ knowledge is kept up to date on key issues and developments pertaining to the Group, its operational environment and to the Directors’ responsibilities as members of the Board. During the course of the year, Directors received updates from various external advisers on a number of regulatory and corporate governance matters.

Directors’ service contracts or appointment letters make provision for a Director to seek personal advice in furtherance of his or her duties and responsibilities.

7. Evaluate Board performance based on clear and relevant objectives, seeking continuous improvement

The Board’s performance is measured by the success of the Company’s acquisitions and investments and the returns that they generate for shareholders and in comparison to peer group companies. This performance is presented in the Group’s monthly management accounts and reported, discussed and reviewed with the Board regularly.

8. Promote a corporate culture that is based on ethical values and behaviours

The Board seeks to maintain the highest standards of integrity and probity in the conduct of the Group’s operations. These values are enshrined in the written policies and working practices adopted by all employees in the Group. An open culture is encouraged within the Group. The management team regularly monitors the Group’s cultural environment and seeks to address any concerns than may arise, escalating these to Board level as necessary.

The Group is committed to providing a safe environment for its staff and all other parties for which the Group has a legal or moral responsibility in this area.

Anemoi has a strong ethical culture, which is promoted by the actions of the Board and management team. The Group has an anti-bribery policy and would report any instances of non-compliance to the Board. The Group has undertaken a review of its requirements under the General Data Protection Regulation, implementing appropriate policies, procedures and training to ensure it is compliant.

9. Maintain governance structures and processes that are fit for purpose and support good decision-making by the Board

The Board has overall responsibility for promoting the success of the Group. The Chairman has day-to-day responsibility for the operational management of the Group’s activities. The non-executive Directors are responsible for bringing independent and objective judgment to Board decisions. Matters reserved for the Board include strategy, investment decisions, corporate acquisitions and disposals.

There is a clear separation of the roles of Executive Chairman and Non-executive Directors. The Chairman is responsible for overseeing the running of the Board, ensuring that no individual or group dominates the Board’s decision-making and ensuring the Non-executive Directors are properly briefed on matters. Due to its current size, the Group does not require nor bear the cost of a chief executive.

The Chairman has overall responsibility for corporate governance matters in the Group but does not chair any of the Committees.The Chairman also has the responsibility for implementing strategy and managing the day-to-day business activities of the Group. The Chairman is also responsible for ensuring that Board procedures are followed and applicable rules and regulations are complied with.

The Audit Committee normally meets at least once a year and has responsibility for, amongst other things, planning and reviewing the annual report and accounts and interim

statements involving, where appropriate, the external auditors.The Committee also approves external auditors’ fees and ensures the auditors’ independence as well as focusing on compliance with legal requirements and accounting standards. It is also responsible for ensuring that an effective system of internal control is maintained. The ultimate responsibility for reviewing and approving the annual financial statements and interim statements remains with the Board. The Committee has formal terms of reference, which are set out in the Board of Directors section of the Company’s website.

The Remuneration Committee, which meets as required, but at least once a year, has responsibility for making recommendations to the Board on the compensation of senior executives and determining, within agreed terms of reference, the specific remuneration packages for each of the Directors. It also supervises the Company’s share incentive schemes and sets performance conditions for share options granted under the schemes.The Committee has formal terms of reference.

The Directors believe that the above disclosures constitute sufficient disclosure to meet the QCA Code’s requirement for a Remuneration Committee Report. Consequently, a separate Remuneration Committee Report is not presented in the Group’s Annual Report.

10. Communicate how the Group is governed and is performing by maintaining a dialogue with shareholders and other relevant stakeholders

The Board believes that the Annual Report and Accounts, and the Interim Report published at the half-year, play an important part in presenting all shareholders with an assessment of the Group’s position and prospects. The Annual Report includes a Corporate Governance Statement which refers to the activities of both the Audit Committee and Remuneration Committee. All reports and press releases are published in the Investor Relations section of the Group’s website.

The Group’s financial reports and notices of General Meetings of the Company can be found in the Reports and Documents section of the Company’s website. The results of voting on all resolutions in future general meetings will be posted to this website, including any actions to be taken as a result of resolutions for which votes against have been received from at least 20 per cent of independent shareholders.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS’ OF ANEMOI INTERNATIONAL LTD.

OPINION

We have audited the financial statements of Anemoi International Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’) for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Income, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and UK-adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s affairs as at 31 December 2023 and of the Group’s loss for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRS.

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 group 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 as applied to listed entities, 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.

Our evaluation of the Directors’ assessment of the entity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included review of the expected cashflows for a period of 12 months from the date of this report compared with the liquid assets held by the Group.

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 Group’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.

OUR APPROACH TO THE AUDIT

In planning our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we looked at where the directors made subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed sufficient work to be able to issue an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which they operate.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement we identified (whether or not due to fraud), including those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy; the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team.The matter identified was addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We consider gross assets to be the most significant determinant of the Group’s financial performance used by the users of the financial statements. We have based materiality on 1.5% of gross assets for each of the operating components. Overall materiality for the Group was therefore set at £70k. For each component, the materiality set was lower than the overall group materiality.

We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report on all differences more than 5% of materiality relating to the Group financial statements. We also report to the Audit Committee on financial statement disclosure matters identified when assessing the overall consistency and presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

OUR APPLICATION OF MATERIALITY

We apply the concept of materiality both in planning and performing our audit, and in evaluating the effect of misstatements. We consider materiality to be the magnitude by which misstatements, including omissions, could influence the economic decisions of reasonable users that are taken on the basis of the financial statements.

In order to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that any misstatements exceed materiality, we use a lower materiality level, performance materiality, to determine the extent of testing needed. Importantly, misstatements below these levels will not necessarily be evaluated as immaterial as we also take account of the nature of identified misstatements, and the particular circumstances of their occurrence, when evaluating their effect on the financial statements as a whole.

OTHER INFORMATION

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS

As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 7 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 group’s and the parent 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 group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

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 our opinion in an auditor’s report. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the 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:

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the Group operates focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals and reviewing accounting estimates for biases.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance.The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditor’s Report.

OTHER MATTERS THAT WE ARE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS

We were appointed on 19 April 2023 and this is the second year of our engagement as auditors for the Group.

We confirm that we are independent of the Group and have not provided any prohibited non-audit services, as defined by the Ethical Standard issued by the Financial Reporting Council.

Our audit report is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee explaining the results of our audit.

USE OF OUR REPORT

This report is made solely to the Group’s members, as a body. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Group’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 Group and the Group’s members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). The Group prepares its accounts in accordance with applicable UK Adopted International Accounting Standards “IFRS”.

The financial statements are expressed in GBP.

The principal accounting policies are summarised below. They have been applied consistently throughout the period covered by these financial statements.

2.1. FOREIGN CURRENCY

The presentational currency of the financial statements is GBP, whereas the functional currency of the Group is US Dollars. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the spot exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated into the presentational currency at the spot exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Any resulting exchange differences are included in the statement of comprehensive income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities, other than those measured at fair value, are not retranslated subsequent to initial recognition.

Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the financial reporting date. Exchange differences arising are included in the statement of income for the period.

Year-end GBPUSD exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.2731 (2022: 1.2103)

Average GBPUSD exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.2417 (2022: 1.2800)

Year-end GBPEUR exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.1527 (2022: 1.1273)

Average GBPEUR exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.1400 (2022: 1.1599)

Year-end GBPCHF exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.0713 (2022: 1.1187)

Average GBPCHF exchange rate as at 31 Dec 2023: 1.0950 (2022: 1.1762)

2.2. GOING CONCERN

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as management consider that the Group will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Group has fully assessed its financial commitments and at the year-end had net cash reserves of £1.6m.

In arriving at this conclusion management have prepared cash flow forecasts considering operating cash flows and capital expenditure requirements for the Group, as well as available working capital.

2.3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

The Group has changed to UK adopted International Accounting Standards for the year ended 31 December 2021 from EU- adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), at which time there were no differences between UK and EU adoption of IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Standards issued but not yet effective: There were a number of standards and interpretations which were in issue during the current period but were not effective at that date and have not been adopted for these Financial Statements. The Directors have assessed the full impact of these accounting changes on the Company.To the extent that they may be applicable, the Directors have concluded that none of these pronouncements will cause material adjustments to the Group’s Financial Statements.They may result in consequential changes to the accounting policies and other note disclosures.The new standards will not be early adopted by the Group and have / will be incorporated in the preparation of the Group Financial Statements from the effective dates noted below.

The new and amended standards include:

IFRS 17 Insurance contracts 1

IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2 1 IAS 8 Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors 1 IAS 12 Income Taxes 1

IFRS 16 Leases 2

IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements (Amendment – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current) 2

IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements (Amendment – Non-current Liabilities with Covenants) 2

IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability 3

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024
Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025

2.4. JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Directors to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The key judgement areas relate to the carrying value of intangible assets which are reviewed annually for indication of impairment. Deferred consideration as per note 16 is not currently recognised on the acquisition of .id4. AG. The deferred consideration is contingent on the meeting of financial targets by December 2026.The Board is still confident of meeting targets however the length of time and nature of recurring revenue, which form much of the financial targets, have suggested that withholding recognition of deferred consideration until such time as greater steps toward the targets have been made is the prudent judgement.

2.5. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation and any provision for impairment. Cost includes the purchase price, including import duties, non-refundable purchase taxes and directly attributable costs incurred in bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended. Cost also includes capitalised interest on borrowings, applied only during the period of construction.

Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis between 3 and 15 years from the point at which the asset is put into use.

2.6. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

GOODWILL

For impairment testing purposes, management considers the operations of the Group to represent a single cash generating unit (CGU), providing software and digital solutions to the financial services industry. The directors have assessed the recoverable amount of goodwill which is indefinite and in accordance with IAS 36 is the higher of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell (fair value), in determining whether there is evidence of impairment.

The fair value of the CGU as at 31 December 2023 is considered by the directors to be fairly represented when a discounted cash flow valuation of detailed forecasts over 5 years in addition to a subsequent transition period of 3 years before terminal value assumptions to establish a fair value. Forecasts assumed a discount rate of 20% and terminal growth rate of 2% respectively.

As such, the directors do not consider there to be any indication that the goodwill is impaired.

DEVELOPMENT COSTS

An intangible asset, which is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance, is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the Group and that its cost can be measured reliably. Such intangible assets are finite and are carried at cost less amortisation. Amortisation is charged to ‘Administrative expenses’ in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the intangible assets’ useful economic life. The amortisation is based on a straight-line method typically over a period of 1-5 years depending on the life of the related asset.

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Development costs are capitalised as an intangible asset only if the following conditions are met:

an asset is created that can be identified;
it is probable that the asset created will generate future economic benefit;
the development cost of the asset can be measured reliably;
it meets the Group’s criteria for technical and commercial feasibility; and
sufficient resources are available to meet the development costs to either sell or use as an asset. Amortisation is included in Depreciation and Amortisation in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

2.7. TAXATION

The Company is incorporated in the BVI as an IBC and as such is not subject to tax in the BVI. Id4AG is incorporated in Switzerland is subject to tax in the Canton of Lucerne. Id4 CLM (UK) Ltd is incorporated in England and Wales and therefore subject to tax in the UK.

2.8. BORROWING COSTS

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets until such a time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit and loss in the period incurred.

2.9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised on the Group’s statement of financial position when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at inception that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Trade payables are not interest-bearing and are initially valued at their fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Equity instruments are recorded at fair value, being the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Share Capital – Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of taxation, from the proceeds.

Borrowings are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, plus accrued interest.

3. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Following the acquisition of id4 AG on 17 December 2021 the Group operated a software services segment as outlined below. In identifying the entity’s reportable segments, management has segregated the operating business (ID4 AG), which develops and sells software, from the rest of the Group.
