MAC ALPHA LIMITED
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
for the period from incorporation on 11 October 2021 to 31 December
2021
MANAGEMENT REPORT
I present to shareholders the unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements of MAC Alpha Limited (the
"Company") for the period from incorporation on 11 October 2021 to
31 December 2021 (the "Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements"), consolidating the results of MAC Alpha Limited and
its subsidiary MAC Alpha (BVI) Limited (collectively, the "Group"
or "MAC").
Strategy
The Company was incorporated on 11 October 2021 and subsequently
listed on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange on 24
December 2021. The Company has been formed for the purpose of
effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share or
debt purchase, reorganisation or similar business combination with
one or more businesses. The Company's objective is to generate
attractive long term returns for shareholders and to enhance value
by supporting sustainable growth, acquisitions and performance
improvements within the acquired companies.
While a broad range of sectors will be considered by the
Directors, those which they believe will provide the greatest
opportunity and which the Company will initially focus on
include:
-- Automotive & Transport
-- Business-to-Business Services
-- Clean Technology
-- Consumer & Luxury Goods
-- Financial Services, Banking & Fin Tech
-- Insurance, Reinsurance & InsurTech, & Other Vertical Marketplaces
-- Media & Technology
-- Healthcare & Diagnostics
The Directors may consider other sectors if they believe such
sectors present a suitable opportunity for the Company.
The Company will seek to identify situations where a combination
of management expertise, improving operating performance, freeing
up cashflow for investment and implementation of a focused buy and
build strategy can unlock growth in their core markets and often
into new territories and adjacent sectors.
Results
The Group's loss after taxation for the period to 31 December
2021 was GBP122,400. The Group held a cash balance at the period
end of GBP700,000 and had payables of GBP 354,795 as at the balance
sheet date .
Directors
The Directors of the Company have served as directors for the
period from incorporation until the date of this report. The
Directors are:
James Corsellis (Chairman); and
Mark Brangstrup Watts.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not yet acquired a trading business and it is
therefore inappropriate to make a forecast of the likelihood of any
future dividends. The Directors intend to determine the Company's
dividend policy following completion of an acquisition and, in any
event, will only commence the payment of dividends when it becomes
commercially prudent to do so.
Corporate Governance
As a company with a Standard Listing, the Company is not
required to comply with the provisions of the UK Corporate
Governance Code and given the size and nature of the Group the
Directors have decided not to adopt the UK Corporate Governance
Code. Nevertheless, the Board is committed to maintaining high
standards of corporate governance and will consider whether to
voluntarily adopt and comply with the UK Corporate Governance Code
as part of any acquisition, taking into account the Company's size
and status at that time.
The Company currently complies with the following principles of
the UK Corporate Governance Code:
-- The Company is led by an effective and entrepreneurial Board,
whose role is to promote the long term sustainable success of the
Company, generating value for shareholders and contributing to
wider society.
-- The Board ensures that it has the policies, processes,
information, time and resources it needs in order to function
effectively and efficiently.
-- The Board ensures that the necessary resources are in place
for the company to meet its objectives and measure performance
against them.
Given the size and nature of the Company, the Board has not
established any committees and intends to make decisions as a
whole. If the need should arise in the future, for example
following any acquisition, the Board may set up committees and may
decide to comply with the UK Corporate Governance Code.
Risks
The Directors have carried out a robust assessment of the
principal risks facing the Group including those that would
threaten its business model, future performance, solvency, or
liquidity. There have been no significant changes to the principal
risks described in the Company's Prospectus published on 24
December 2021. Details of the risks faced by the Group are set out
on pages 11-22 of the Prospectus which can be found on the
Company's website www.mac-alpha.com .
Outlook
We are active in pursuing and evaluating opportunities with
advisers and potential management partners and believe the
structure of the Company positions it well to capitalise on these
opportunities in the current market environment.
RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
Each of the Directors confirms that, to the best of their
knowledge:
(a) these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim
Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union, give a true
and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and
profit or loss of MAC; and
(b) these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
comply with the requirements of DTR 4.2.
Neither the Company nor the Directors accept any liability to
any person in relation to the Condensed Consolidated Interim
Financial Statements except to the extent that such liability could
arise under applicable law.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
MAC Alpha Limited was incorporated on 11 October 2021 in the
British Virgin Islands ("BVI") as a BVI business company
(registered number 2078235) under the BVI Business Company Act,
2004. The Company was listed on the Main Market of the London Stock
Exchange on 24 December 2021 and has its registered address at
Commerce House, Wickhams Cay 1, P.O. Box 3140, Road Town, Tortola,
British Virgin Islands VG1110. The Company has been formed for the
purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition,
share or debt purchase, reorganisation or similar business
combination with one or more businesses. The Company has one
subsidiary, MAC Alpha (BVI) Limited (together with the Company the
"Group").
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have
been prepared in accordance with the IAS 34 interim financial
reporting and are presented on a condensed basis. The interim
report does not include all of the notes of the type normally
included in an annual financial report. There have been no annual
financial statements prepared to date as this is the first interim
period, however this report should be read in conjunction with any
public announcements made by the Company during the interim
period.
(b) Going concern
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements relating
to the Group have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
assumes that the Group will continue to be able to meet its
liabilities as they fall due within the next twelve months from the
date of approval.
As part of the Company's admission onto the Main Market of the
London Stock Exchange, the Directors have reviewed the working
capital model for the Group in detail and are satisfied that the
Company will have sufficient cash to meet its ongoing operating
costs, at least for the next twelve months. Subject to the
structure of an acquisition, the Company will likely need to raise
additional funds for an acquisition in the form of equity and/or
debt. Significant risks relating to the activities of the Company
were set out in the Company's prospectus relating to its admission
to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange which can be found
on the Company's website.
(c) Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control
exists when the Company is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to
affect those returns through its power over the entity. The
financial information of subsidiaries is fully consolidated in the
consolidated interim financial statements from the date that
control commences until the date that control ceases. Intragroup
balances, and any gains and losses or income and expenses arising
from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the
consolidated interim financial statements .
(d) Cash and cash equivalents
The Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances at
banks.
(e) Stated capital
Ordinary shares and sponsor shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares
are shown in the associated stated capital as a deduction from the
proceeds.
(f) Share based payments
The A ordinary shares in MAC Alpha (BVI) Limited (the "Incentive
Shares"), represent equity-settled share-based payment arrangements
under which the Company receives services as a consideration for
the additional rights attached to these equity shares, over and
above their nominal price.
Equity-settled share-based payments to Directors and others
providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the
equity instruments at the grant date. Fair value is determined
using an appropriate valuation technique, further details of which
are given in note 14. The fair value is expensed, with a
corresponding increase in equity, on a straight line basis from the
grant date to the expected exercise date. Where the equity
instruments granted are considered to vest immediately, the
services are deemed to have been received in full, with a
corresponding expense and increase in equity recognised at grant
date.
(g) Corporation tax
There is no corporate, income or other tax of the British Virgin
Islands imposed by withholding or otherwise on BVI companies. The
Company will therefore not have any tax liabilities or deferred tax
in the BVI. The Company is exempt from all provisions of the Income
Tax Act of the British Virgin Islands.
(h) Loss per ordinary share
The Group presents basic earnings per ordinary share ("EPS")
data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing
the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the
Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by
adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary
shares.
(i) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a
financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity. The Group initially recognises
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Financial
assets and liabilities are subsequently remeasured at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate. The Group derecognises the
financial assets when the right to receive cash flows have expired,
and derecognises financial liabilities when they have transferred
all risks and rewards of ownership.
(j) New standards and amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards
Standards, amendments and interpretations effective and adopted
by the Group
IFRSs applicable to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements of the Group for the period from incorporation 11
October 2021 to 31 December 2021 have been applied

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Group's Condensed Consolidated Interim
Financial Statements under IFRS requires the Directors to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and
are based on historical experience and other factors including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.
Critical accounting judgements
Classification of warrants
As part of the Company's initial fundraising on IPO, the Company
issued ordinary shares to a number of investors. For every ordinary
share subscribed for, each investor was also granted a warrant ("
Warrant ") to acquire a further ordinary share at an exercise price
of GBP1.00 per share. The Warrants are exercisable at any time
until five years after the IPO date, being 24 December 2021.
Warrants can only be classified as equity if they will be
settled only by the issuer exchanging a fixed amount of cash or
another financial asset for a fixed number of its own equity
instruments. The warrant instrument contains an exercise price
adjustment (" Exercise Price Adjustment "), whereby if the ordinary
shares are issued at less than GBP1 before or as part of an
acquisition then the exercise price equals the discounted issue
price, as a result the fixed-for-fixed requirement is breached.
However, it is the opinion of the Directors that whilst the
Exercise Price Adjustment exists, the likelihood of this being used
is remote, and therefore it is most appropriate for the Warrants to
be classified as equity.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Valuation of incentive shares
There are significant estimates and assumptions used in the
valuation of the A ordinary Shares in MAC Alpha (BVI) Limited the
(" Incentive Shares "). Management has considered at the grant
date, the probability of a successful first acquisition by the
Group and the potential range of value for the Incentive Shares,
based on the circumstances on the grant date. The fair value of the
Incentive Shares and related share-based payment expense was
calculated using a Monte Carlo valuation model. A summary of the
terms is set out in note 14.
Valuation of warrants
The Warrants were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing
methodology which considered the exercise price, expected
volatility, risk free rate, expected dividends and expected term of
the Warrants.
4. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Board of Directors is the Group's chief operating
decision-maker. As the Group has not yet commenced trading, the
Board of Directors considers the Group as a whole for the purposes
of assessing performance and allocating resources, and therefore
the Group has one reportable operating segment.
5. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS
The Group does not have any employees. During the period ended
31 December 2021, the Company had two directors: James Corsellis
and Mark Brangstrup Watts, neither director received remuneration
under the terms of their director service agreements.

====================
7. LOSS PER ORDINARY SHARE
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit/ loss
attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period.
Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number
of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares. The weighted average number of shares
has not been adjusted in calculating diluted EPS as there are no
instruments which have a current dilutive effect. The Company has
issued 700,000 warrants, each of which is convertible into one
ordinary share. The group made a loss in the current period, which
would result in the warrants being anti-dilutive. Therefore, the
warrants have not been included in the calculation of diluted
earnings per share.
The Company has 700,000 ordinary shares and 1 sponsor share in
issue as 31 December 2021. The sponsor share has no right to
receive distributions and so has been ignored for the purposes of
IAS 33.
Refer to note 12 (equity and reserves) and note 14 (share based
payments) for instruments that could potentially dilute basic EPS
in the future.

Unlimited class A shares of no par value
Unlimited class B shares of no par value
100 sponsor shares of no par value
Stated capital
As at 31 December
2021
Issued GBP
700,000 ordinary shares of no par value 319,000
1 sponsor share of no par value 1
On incorporation, the Company issued 1 ordinary share of no par
value to the Parent. On 28 October 2021, it was resolved that
updated memorandum and articles ("Updated M&A") be adopted by
the Company and with effect from the time the Updated M&A be
registered with the Registrar of Corporate Affairs in the British
Virgin Islands, the 1 ordinary share which was in issue by the
Company be redesignated as 1 sponsor share of no par value (the
"Sponsor Share").
On 24 December 2021, the Company issued 700,000 ordinary shares
and matching Warrants at a price of GBP1 for one ordinary share and
matching Warrant. Under the terms of the warrant instrument,
warrant holders are able to acquire one ordinary share per warrant
at a price of GBP1 per ordinary share. Warrants are accounted for
as equity instruments under IAS 32 and are measured at fair value
at grant date, the combined market value of one ordinary share and
one warrant was considered to be GBP1, in line with the market
price paid by third party investors. A Black Scholes option pricing
methodology was used to determine the fair value of the Warrants,
which considered the exercise price, expected volatility, risk free
rate, expected dividends and expected term. Warrants have been
assigned a fair value of 15p per Warrant and therefore each
ordinary share has been valued at 85p per share.
Costs of GBP276,000 directly attributable to the equity raise
have been taken against stated capital during the period.
Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive notice and
attend and vote at any meeting of members and have the right to a
share in any distribution paid by the Company and a right to a
share in the distribution of the surplus assets of the Company on a
winding up.
The Sponsor Share confers upon the holder no right to receive
notice and attend and vote at any meeting of members, no right to
any distribution paid by the Company and no right to a share in the
distribution of the surplus assets of the Company on a summary
winding up. Provided the holder of the Sponsor Share holds directly
or indirectly 5 per cent. or more of the issued and outstanding
shares of the Company (of whatever class other than any Sponsor
Shares), they have the right to appoint one director to the
Board.
The Sponsor Share confers upon the holder no right to receive
notice and attend and no right to vote at any meeting of members,
no right to any distribution paid by the Company and no right to a
share in the distribution of the surplus assets of the Company on a
summary winding up.
Provided the holder of the Sponsor Share holds directly or
indirectly 5 per cent. or more of the issued and outstanding shares
of the Company (of whatever class other than any Sponsor Shares),
the holder of the Sponsor Share has the right to appoint one
director to the Board.
Provided the holder of the Sponsor Share holds directly or
indirectly 5 per cent. or more of the issued and outstanding shares
of the Company (of whatever class other than any Sponsor Shares) or
is a holder of incentive shares:
-- the Company must receive the prior consent of the holder of the Sponsor Share in order to:
o issue any further Sponsor Shares;
o issue any class of shares on a non pre-emptive basis where the
Company would be required to issue such share pre-emptively if it
were incorporated under the UK Companies Act 2006 and acting in
accordance with the Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles;
or
o amend, alter or repeal any existing, or introduce any new
share-based compensation or incentive scheme in respect of the
Group; and
o take any action that would not be permitted (or would only be
permitted after an affirmative shareholder vote) if the Company
were admitted to the Premium Segment of the Official List.
-- the holder of the Sponsor Share has the right to require
that: (i) any purchase or redemption by the Company of its shares;
or (ii) the Company's ability to amend the Memorandum and Articles,

13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS
The Group has the following categories of financial instruments
at the period end:
As at
31 December
2021
GBP
Financial assets measured at amortised cost
Cash and cash equivalents 700,000
Other receivables 15,001
715,001
-------------
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
Trade and other payables 354,795
-------------
354,795
-------------
The fair value and book value of the financial assets and
liabilities are materially equivalent.
The Group's risk management policies are established to identify
and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk
limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence limits.
Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to
reflect changes in market conditions and the Group's
activities.
Treasury activities are managed on a Group basis under policies
and procedures approved and monitored by the Board. These are
designed to reduce the financial risks faced by the Group which
primarily relate to movements in interest rates.
As the Group's assets are predominantly cash and cash
equivalents, market risk and liquidity risk are not currently
considered to be material risks to the Group.
14. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
Management Long Term Incentive Arrangements
The Group has put in place a Long-Term Incentive Plan (" LTIP
"), to ensure alignment between Shareholders, and those responsible
for delivering the Company's strategy and attract and retain the
best executive management talent.
The LTIP will only reward the participants if shareholder value
is created. This ensures alignment of the interests of management
directly with those of Shareholders. As at the balance sheet date,
an executive management team is not yet in place and as such Marwyn
Long Term Incentive LP (" MLTI ") is the only participant in the
LTIP. Once an executive management team is appointed, they will
participate in the LTIP and this will be dilutive to MLTI. Under
the LTIP, A ordinary shares (" Incentive Shares ") are issued by
the Subsidiary.
As at the statement of financial position date, MLTI had
subscribed for redeemable A ordinary shares of GBP0.01 each in the
Subsidiary entitling it to 100 per cent. of the incentive
value.
Preferred Return
The incentive arrangements are subject to the Company's
shareholders achieving a preferred return of at least 7.5 per cent.
per annum on a compounded basis on the capital they have invested
from time to time (with dividends and returns of capital being
treated as a reduction in the amount invested at the relevant time)
(the " Preferred Return ").
Incentive Value
Subject to a number of provisions detailed below, if the
Preferred Return and at least one of the vesting conditions have
been met, the holders of the Incentive Shares can give notice to
redeem their Incentive Shares for ordinary shares in the Company ("
Ordinary Shares ") for an aggregate value equivalent to 20 percent
of the "Growth", where Growth means the excess of the total equity
value of the Company and other shareholder returns over and above
its aggregate paid up share capital (20 per cent. of the Growth
being the " Incentive Value ").
Grant date
The grant date of the Incentive Shares will be the date that
such shares are issued.
Redemption / Exercise
Unless otherwise determined and subject to the redemption
conditions having been met, the Company and the holders of the
Incentive Shares have the right to exchange each Incentive Share
for Ordinary Shares, which will be dilutive to the interests of the
holders of Ordinary Shares. However, if the Company has sufficient
cash resources and the Company so determines, the Incentive Shares
may instead be redeemed for cash. It is currently expected that in
the ordinary course Incentive Shares will be exchanged for Ordinary
Shares. However, the Company retains the right but not the
obligation to redeem the Incentive Shares for cash instead.
Circumstances where the Company may exercise this right include,
but are not limited to, where the Company is not authorised to
issue additional Ordinary Shares or on the winding-up or takeover
of the Company.
Any holder of Incentive Shares who exercises their Incentive
Shares prior to other holders is entitled to their proportion of
the Incentive Value to the date that they exercise but no more.
Their proportion is determined by the number of Incentive Shares
they hold relative to the total number of issued shares of the same
class.
Vesting Conditions and Vesting Period
The Incentive Shares are subject to certain vesting conditions,
at least one of which must be (and continue to be) satisfied in
order for a holder of Incentive Shares to exercise its redemption
right.
The vesting conditions are as follows:
i. it is later than the third anniversary of the initial acquisition;
ii. a sale of all or substantially all of the revenue or net
assets of the business of the Subsidiary in combination with the
distribution of the net proceeds of that sale to the Company and
then to its shareholders;
iii. a sale of all of the issued ordinary shares of the
Subsidiary or a merger of the Subsidiary in combination with the
distribution of the net proceeds of that sale or merger to the
Company's shareholders;
iv. whereby corporate action or otherwise, the Company effects
an in-specie distribution of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Group to the Company's shareholders;
v. aggregate cash dividends and cash capital returns to the
Company's Shareholders are greater than or equal to aggregate
subscription proceeds received by the Company;
vi. a winding-up of the Company;
vii. a winding-up of the Subsidiary; or
viii. a sale, merger or change of control of the Company.
If any of the vesting conditions described in paragraphs (ii) to
(viii) above are satisfied before the third anniversary of the
initial acquisition, the A Shares will be treated as having vested
in full.
Holding of Incentive Shares
MLTI holds Incentive Shares entitling it in aggregate to 100 per
cent. of the Incentive Value. Any future management partners or
senior executive management team members receiving Incentive Shares
will be dilutive to the interests of existing holders of Incentive
Shares, however the share of the Growth of the Incentive Shares in
aggregate will not increase.

Valuation of Incentive Shares
A valuation of the incentive shares has been prepared by
Deloitte LLP dated 25 November 2021 to determine the fair value of
the Incentive Shares in accordance with IFRS 2 at grant date.
There are significant estimates and assumptions used in the
valuation of the Incentive Shares. Management has considered at the
grant date, the probability of a successful first acquisition by
the Company and the potential range of value for the Incentive
Shares, based on the circumstances on the grant date.
The fair value of the Incentive Shares granted under the scheme
was calculated using a Monte Carlo model. The fair value uses an
ungeared volatility of 25 per cent. and an expected term of seven
years. The Incentive Shares are subject to the Preferred Return
being achieved, which is a market performance condition, and as
such has been taken into consideration in determining their fair
value. A risk-free rate of 0.7 per cent. has been applied. The
model incorporates a range of probabilities for the likelihood of
an acquisition being made of a given size.
Expense related to Incentive Shares
An expense of GBP52,516 has been recognised in the Statement of
Comprehensive Income for the period ended 31 December 2021 in
respect of the Incentive Shares issued to MLTI which is the
difference between the IFRS 2 valuation at grant date of GBP67,516
and the amount payable by MLTI for 2,000 A ordinary shares of
GBP15,000. There are no service conditions attached to the MLTI
shares, and hence the expense of GBP52,516 has been recognised in
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the period.
The fair value at grant date has been taken to the share-based
payment reserve in the statement of changes in equity.
