Chairman's statement

The Group's revenue increased by 7.2% to GBP121.5 million (H1 2022: revenue of GBP113.4 million) i n the first six months of 2023 as a result of higher sales from the Group's main products and services in Malaysia, namely the mobile phone prepaid airtime reload and bill payment business through the Group's banking channels (i.e. mobile banking and internet banking), electronic data capture ("EDC") terminals and third parties' e-wallet applications. Notwithstanding the higher sales, the Group registered a lower profit after t ax of GBP5,117 in the first six months of 2023 (H1 2022: profit after tax of GBP0.34 million) mainly due to a reduction in gross profit margin in the period under review to 5.08% (H1 2022: gross profit margin of 5.52%), higher administrative expenses and higher finance costs.

The Group's other businesses such as its international remittance services, EDC terminals sales and services, e-money and lending in Malaysia as well as the e-payment solutions activities in Brunei continued to remain small. The Group did not record any sales in the Philippines in the first six months of 2023.

As at 30 June 2023, the Group had cash and cash equivalents (including fixed deposits) of GBP3.42 million (30 June 2022: cash and cash equivalents of GBP4.72 million) while the secured loans and borrowings from financial institutions increased to GBP4.14 million (30 June 2022: GBP2.89 million).

Current trading and outlook

The Group's business activities are still predominately concentrated in Malaysia. Other than the Group's main business activities of mobile phone prepaid airtime reload and bill payment in Malaysia, the Group's other businesses are expected to remain insignificant in 2023. As reported by the Central Bank of Malaysia in August 2023, the Malaysian economy grew by 2.9% in the second quarter of 2023 weighed mainly by slower external demand. Domestic demand remained the key driver of growth, supported by private consumption and investment. With the challenging global environment, the Malaysian economy is projected to expand close to the lower end of the 4.0% to 5.0% range in 2023. Growth will continue to be supported by domestic demand amid improving employment and income as well as implementation of multi-year projects.

As part of the Group's business plans for long-term growth, the Group has the following initiatives:

(1) Proposed disposal of OneShop Retail Sdn Bhd ("1Shop") and proposed joint venture with Super Apps Holdings Sdn Bhd ("Super Apps")

On 19 October 2022, MobilityOne Sdn Bhd ("M1 Malaysia"), the Group's wholly-owned subsidiary in Malaysia, entered into a Share Sale Agreement with Super Apps for the proposed disposal by M1 Malaysia of a 60% shareholding in the Group's wholly-owned non-core subsidiary 1Shop to Super Apps (together the "Proposed Disposal"). Concurrently, M1 Malaysia entered into a Joint-Venture cum Shareholders Agreement with Super Apps and 1Shop (together the "Proposed Joint Venture"). The Proposed Disposal and Proposed Joint Venture are inter-conditional in order to establish a new joint venture to expand the Group's e-products and services business initially in Malaysia.

The Proposed Disposal is subject to the completion of a merger exercise between Technology & Telecommunication Acquisition Corporation ("TETE") and Super Apps (together the "Merger Exercise") .

Pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Disposal and subject to the completion of the Merger Exercise, the Group is expected to receive cash proceeds of RM40.0 million (c. GBP7.53 million) and RM20.0 million (c. GBP3.76 million) within 14 days and 180 days respectively of completion of the Merger Exercise.

A draft proxy statement has been filed by Tete Technologies Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TETE, on 2 August 2023 ("TETE Proxy Filing") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). An extraordinary general meeting will be convened in due course by TETE once the TETE Proxy Filing is in complete form and approved by the SEC. The Company will release further announcements as and when appropriate.

There can be no guarantee that t he Proposed Disposal and Proposed Joint Venture can be completed as they are conditional on the completion of the Merger Exercise, which is out of the Group's control. The completion of the Proposed Disposal and Proposed Joint Venture are expected to positively contribute to the future growth of the Group.

   (2)        Money transfer business via SWIFT network 

To expand the Group's money transfer business via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication ("SWIFT") network, the Group continues to work with a bank in Malaysia on the integration process due to the migration of messaging standards within the SWIFT network while waiting for the Central Bank of Malaysia's approval, the timings of which continue to remain uncertain. The Company will make the relevant announcement on the arrangement with SWIFT as and when is appropriate.

   (3)        UK electronic money institution application 

On 11 May 2023, the Company announced that M1 Tech Limited ("M1 Tech"), the Group's wholly-owned subsidiary in the UK, had withdrawn its application to the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA"), the financial regulatory body in the UK, for authorisation as an electronic money institution to provide e-money services in the UK (the "FCA Application"). This follows receipt of further feedback from the FCA requesting further information in relation to certain disclosures relating to M1 Tech's proposed business plan. The Group is reviewing its proposed business plan to expand its business in the UK and its options in relation to submitting a further revised FCA application in due course which addresses the FCA's latest feedback. The Company will release further announcements as and when appropriate.

   (4)        New joint venture to explore business opportunities from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 

On 26 June 2023, M1 Malaysia entered into a joint venture cum shareholders agreement with Syed Faisal Algadrie Bin Syed Hassan to incorporate Qube Nexus Sdn Bhd, Malaysia to explore any suitable business opportunities from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Any material developments in relation to new business opportunities will be announced in due course.

(5) Proposed acquisition of Hati International Sdn Bhd ("Hati") via Sincere Acres Sdn Bhd ("Sincere")

On 29 September 2023, M1 Malaysia entered into a share sale agreement with United Flagship Development Sdn Bhd ("Vendor") to acquire a 49% equity interest in Sincere for a total cash consideration of RM30.0 million (c. GBP5.217 million) to be paid to the Vendor in two tranches (the "Proposed Acquisition"). The first tranche, representing RM2.0 million (c. GBP0.348 million), has been paid to the Vendor using M1 Malaysia's existing cash resources. The second tranche, representing the balance of RM28.0 million (c. GBP4.869 million) (the "Second Tranche"), is required to be paid by M1 Malaysia by 8 March 2024 (the "Second Tranche Payment Date"). It is envisaged that the Second Tranche will be paid by the Group using M1 Malaysia's existing cash resources.

While the Second Tranche Payment Date can be extended for up to a further 6 months ("Extended Second Tranche Payment Date"), any payment in relation to the Second Tranche made after the Second Tranche Payment Date will be subject to an interest charge of 10% per annum. The balance amount payable for the Second Tranche (including any interest charge if the payment is made after the Second Tranche Payment Date) shall be reduced by RM1.0 million (c. GBP0.174 million) when the payment is made by the Extended Second Tranche Payment Date.

While the Proposed Acquisition is not subject to any conditions precedent, both parties have agreed to complete the Proposed Acquisition by 4 October 2023.

Sincere is an investment holding company with its sole business activity comprising of owning a 100% equity interest in Hati, an operating company in Malaysia. Hati is a healthcare information systems provider in Malaysia focused on healthcare software development and information technology. T hrough the use of cloud service platforms and software system solutions, Hati has developed a product suite comprising of hospital information systems, clinical information systems, business intelligence platforms and Internet of Things (IoT)/Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled platforms .

The Proposed Acquisition will result in a number of synergistic benefits for both the Group and Hati. The Proposed Acquisition is anticipated to enable the Group to vertically integrate its existing electronic payment systems and services with Hati's suite of existing products to support payment methods such as credit cards, debit cards and eWallets via online payments and over the counter payments. In addition, the Proposed Acquisition will result in Hati being able to utilise the Group's infrastructure and engineering know-how to automate electronic billing and invoicing.

Following completion of the Proposed Acquisition, and as part of the Group's long-term growth strategy, the Group intends to develop a payment system that integrates the Group's e-claims and e-payments services with insurance companies thereby resolving cash flow issues typically faced by hospitals and clinics. The Group also intends to explore potential collaborations with the Group's telecommunication partners in order to enable Hati's real-time IoT/AI enabled healthcare devices to operate over 5G cellular networks. The above proposed developments will also contribute to the Group expanding its customers base for its existing electronic payment systems and services.

In addition, the Proposed Acquisition will enable the Group to amongst other benefits, diversify its existing business activities into the growing healthcare information systems industry.

Further details on the Proposed Acquisition can be found in the announcement released by the Group on 29 September 2023.

Notwithstanding that the Malaysia economy is expected to grow in 2023 as well as the demand for the Group's mobile phone prepaid products , t he Group is cautious on the outlook for the remainder of 2023, taking into consideration rising interest rates and expenses including, but not limited to, higher administrative expenses, higher infrastructure and marketing costs as well as other related expenses . In addition, in order to maintain or grow the Group's businesses, the Group's gross profit margins for its products and services have been impacted. For future growth, the Group will continue to invest and enhance its research and development as the backbone to support the business and technology advancement as well as to form partnerships or to undertake acquisitions in complementary businesses, as applicable.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
 1.   Basis of preparation 
 
        The Group's interim financial statements for the six months 
        ended 30 June 2023 were authorised for issue by the Board of 
        Directors on 29 September 2023. 
 
        The interim financial statements are unaudited and have been 
        prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting 
        Standards (IFRSs and IFRIC interpretations) issued by the International 
        Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as adopted by the European 
        Union, and with those parts of the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 
        applicable to companies preparing their financial statements 
        under IFRS. It has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim 
        Financial Reporting" and does not include all of the information 
        required for full annual financial statements. The financial 
        statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 
 
        Full details of the accounting policies adopted, which are consistent 
        with those disclosed in the Company's 2022 Annual Report, will 
        be included in the audited financial statements for the year 
        ending 31 December 2023. 
 2.   Basis of consolidation 
 
        The consolidated statement of comprehensive income and statement 
        of financial position include financial statements of the Company 
        and its subsidiaries made up to 30 June 2023. 
 3.   Nature of financial information 
 
       The unaudited interim financial information for the six months 
       ended 30 June 2023 does not constitute statutory accounts under 
       the meaning of Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative 
       figures for the year ended 31 December 2022 are extracted from 
       the audited statutory financial statements. Full audited financial 
       statements of the Group in respect of that financial year prepared 
       in accordance with IFRS, which we received an unqualified audit 
       opinion, have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. 
 4.       Functional and presentation currency 
 
           (i) Functional and presentation currency 
 
           Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's 
           entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic 
           environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). 
           The functional currency of the Group is Ringgit Malaysia (RM). 
           The consolidated financial statements are presented in Pound 
           Sterling (GBP), which is the Company's presentational currency 
           as this is the currency used in the country in which the entity 
           is listed. 
 
           Assets and liabilities are translated into Pound Sterling (GBP) 
           at foreign exchange rates ruling at the Statement of Financial 
           Position date. Results and cash flows are translated into Pound 
           Sterling (GBP) using average rates of exchange for the period. 
 
           (ii) Transactions and balances 
 
           Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional 
           currency using exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
           transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from 
           the settlement of such transactions and from the translation 
           at year/period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities 
           denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement 
           of comprehensive income. 
 
           The financial information set out below has been translated 
           at the following rates: 
                                         Exchange rate (RM: GBP)

 5.      Segmental analysis 
               The Group has three operating segments as follows: 
                 (a) Telecommunication services and electronic commerce solutions; 
                 (b) Hardware and services; and 
                 (c) Remittance services and others. 
           No segmental analysis of assets and capital expenditure are presented 
            as they are mostly unallocated items which comprise corporate 
            assets and liabilities. No geographical segment information is 
            presented as more than 95% of the Group's revenue was generated 
            in Malaysia.

            *The disclosure for non-cash expenses has not been split according 
            to the different segments as the cost to obtain such information 
            is excessive and provides very little by way of information. 
  6.   Taxation 
        Taxation on the income statement for the financial period comprises 
         current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected amount 
         of taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the financial 
         period and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted 
         at the Statement of Financial Position date. 
 
         Deferred tax is recognised on the liability method for all temporary 
         differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability 
         in the Statement of Financial Position and its tax base at the 
         Statement of Financial Position date. Deferred tax liabilities 
         are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred 
         tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, 
         unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it 
         is probable that future taxable profit will be available against 
         which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses 
         and unused tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax is not recognised 
         if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or negative 
         goodwill or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability 
         in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the 
         time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor 
         taxable profit. 
 
         Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates 
         that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised 
         or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have 
         been enacted or substantively enacted by the Statement of Financial 
         Position date. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is 
         reviewed at each Statement of Financial Position date and is 
         reduced to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient 
         future taxable profit will be available. 
 
         Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement, except when 
         it arises from a transaction which is recognised directly in 
         equity, in which case the deferred tax is also charged or credited 
         directly in equity, or when it arises from a business combination 
         that is an acquisition, in which case the deferred tax is included 
         in the resulting goodwill or negative goodwill. 
 
 7       Earnings per share 
         The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit 
          in the six month period ended 30 June 2023 of GBP 1,056 (30 June 
          2022: profit of GBP338,842 and year ended 31 December 2022: profit 
          of GBP23,857) attributable to owners of the parent by the number 
          of ordinary shares outstanding at 30 June 2023 of 106,298,780 
          (30 June 2022: 106,298,780 and 31 December 2022: 106,298,780). 
 
 
 
          The diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended 
          30 June 2023 is calculated using the number of shares adjusted 
          to assume the exercise of all dilutive potential ordinary shares 
          of 112,623,648- on 5 December 2014, the Company granted share 
          options of 10,600,000 shares at 2.5p to directors and certain 
          employees of the Group. Share options of 2,000,000 shares have 
          lapsed due to resignation of employees and no options have been 
          exercised.

 10.       Significant accounting policies 
 
             The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared

             the preparation of the Company's published consolidated financial 
             statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 except for 
             the adoption of new and amended reporting standards, which 
             are effective for periods commencing on or after 1 January 
             2023. Various amendments to standards and interpretations 
             of standards are effective for periods commencing on or after 
             1 January 2023 as detailed in the 2022 Annual Report, none 
             of which have any impact on reported results. 
 
             Amortisation of intangible assets 
 
              Software is amortised over its estimated useful life. Management 
              estimated the useful life of this asset to be within 10 years. 
              Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development 
              could impact the economic useful life therefore future amortisation 
              could be revised. 
 
              The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least 
              on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value-in-use 
              of the cash generating units ("CGU") to which goodwill is 
              allocated. Estimating a value-in-use amount requires management 
              to make an estimation of the expected future cash flows from 
              the CGU and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order 
              to calculate the present value of those cash flows. 
 
              The research and development costs are amortised on a straight-line 
              basis over the life span of the developed assets. Management 
              estimated the useful life of these assets to be within 5 years. 
              Changes in the technological developments could impact the 
              economic useful life and the residual values of these assets, 
              therefore future amortisation charges could be revised. 
             Impairment of goodwill on consolidation 
 
              The Group's cash flow projections include estimates of sales. 
              However, if the projected sales do not materialise there is 
              a risk that the value of goodwill would be impaired. 
 
              The Directors have carried out a detailed impairment review 
              in respect of goodwill. The Group assesses at each reporting 
              date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired, 
              by considering cash flows forecasts. The cash flow projections 
              are based on the assumption that the Group can realise projected 
              sales. A prudent approach has been applied with no residual 
              value being factored. At the period end, based on these assumptions 
              there was no indication of impairment of the value of goodwill 
              or of development costs. 
             Research and development costs 
 
              All research costs are recognised in the income statement 
              as incurred. 
 
              Expenditure incurred on projects to develop new products is 
              capitalised and deferred only when the Group can demonstrate 
              the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset 
              so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention 
              to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how 
              the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability 
              of resources to complete the project and the ability to measure 
              reliably the expenditure during the development. Product development 
              expenditures which do not meet these criteria are expensed 
              when incurred. 
 
              Development costs, considered to have finite useful lives, 
              are stated at cost less any impairment losses and are amortised 
              through other operating expenses in the income statement using 
              the straight-line basis over the commercial lives of the underlying 
              products not exceeding 5 years. Impairment is assessed whenever 
              there is an indication of impairment and the amortisation 
              period and method are also reviewed at least at each Statement 
              of Financial Position date.
