1.      Summary of significant accounting policies

The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the financial information.

1.1.      Basis of preparation

This half year consolidated financial information is for the six months ended 30 June 2024 and has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Statements". The accounting policies applied are consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted for use in the United Kingdom and with those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS (except as otherwise stated). The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the half year financial information are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding half year reporting period (save that, as mentioned above, prior year comparative figures are non-consolidated, with the Group only coming to effect in 2023 following the acquisition of the remaining interest in Engsolve) and with those expected to be applied for the year ending 31 December 2023.

The Group does not consider any new and amended standards that became applicable for the current reporting period to have any impact on the Groups results.

The unaudited results for period ended 30 June 2024 do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative figures for the period ended 31 December 2023 for the Company are extracted from the audited financial statements which contained an unqualified audit report and did not contain statements under Sections 498 to 502 of the Companies Act 2006.

This half year financial statement will be, in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies, available shortly on the Company's website.

1.2.      Going concern

The Directors have considered all available information about future events when considering going concern. The Directors have prepared and reviewed cash flow forecasts for 12 months following the date of these Financial Statements. The projections show that the Group will have sufficient funding to be able to continue as a going concern on the basis of its cash balances as at 30 June 2024. 

The half year financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group were unable to continue as a going concern.

1.3.      Functional and presentational currency

This half year financial information is presented in £ sterling which is the Group's functional currency.

1.4.      Fixed asset investments

Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

An associate is an entity, being neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture, in which the Company holds a long-term interest and where the company has significant influence. The Company considers that it has significant influence where it has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the associate.

Entities in which the Company has a long-term interest and shares control under a contractual arrangement are classified as jointly controlled entities.

1.5.      Revenue

The Group provides engineering services for the application of the DMG technology, the intellectual property that the Group owns. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided to the extent to which the customer receives the benefits. This is determined based on the actual labour hours spent relative to the total expected labour hours.

Where a contract includes multiple performance obligations as specified by the work scope, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on the estimated expected cost-plus margin.

Estimates of revenues, costs, or extent of progress toward completion of services are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management.

In the case of fixed-price contracts, the customer pays the fixed amount based on a payment schedule. If the services rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contact liability is recognised.

If a contract includes an hourly fee, revenue is recognised in the amount to which the Group has a right to invoice.  

2.     SHARE CAPITAL

The deferred shares have no voting rights and do not carry any entitlement to attend general meetings of the Company. They carry only a right to participate in any return of capital once an amount of £100 has been paid in respect of each ordinary share. The Company is authorised at any time to effect a transfer of the deferred shares without reference to the holders thereof and for no consideration.
