NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHSED TO 30 SEPTEMBER 2017

   1.   GENERAL INFORMATION 

The Company was incorporated in England and Wales on 26 February 2016, as a public company limited by shares under the Act. The principal legislation under which the Company operates is the Act. The registered office of the Company is at the offices of London Registrar, Suite A, 6 Honduras St, London EC1Y 0TH United Kingdom.

The Company was admitted to the Official List (by way of a Standard Listing) and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities on 25 October, 2017.

   2.   ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Basis of preparation

The condensed financial information for the period ended 30 September 2017 and 30 September 2016 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed financial information is unaudited and does not constitute statutory financial statements. The comparative interim financial information covers the period from incorporation on 26 February 2016 to 30 September 2016.

The principal accounting policies used in preparing the interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company's financial statements as at and for the period ended 31 March 2017, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), including related interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). The auditors' report on those accounts was unqualified but did contain an emphasis of matters paragraph in respect of the going concern.

The condensed financial information is presented in British Pound Sterling ("GBP").

The interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2017 was approved by the Directors on 20 December 2017.

Going concern

These interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis notwithstanding the existence of the net current liabilities and shareholder's deficits position at the end of reporting period.

Subsequent to the reporting year end, the Company raised approximately GBP769,860 of net new finance following its admission on the Main Market of London Stock Exchange. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim financial statements.

   3.   CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS 

The preparation of unaudited interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses for the current and its corresponding financial period under review. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing the unaudited interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by the management in applying the Company's accounting policies and the sources of estimates uncertainty were consistent as those applied to the 2017 Audited Financial Statements.

There were no changes in estimates of amounts of the Company that may have a material effect on financial period ended 30 September 2017.

   4.   LOSS PER SHARE 

Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. There are currently no dilutive potential ordinary shares.
