Unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June
2018
The Board of Polemos announces the unaudited interim results for
the six months ended 30 June 2018.
The interim results appear below and a copy will shortly be made
available on the Company's website http://www.polemos.co.uk/.
Chairman's Statement
The Company became a Rule 15 Cash Shell on 8 March 2018 and, as
such, the Company is required to make an acquisition or
acquisitions which constitute a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14
on or before the date falling six months from 8 March 2018, or be
re-admitted to trading on AIM as an investing company under the AIM
Rules (which requires the raising of at least GBP6 million) failing
which, the Company's Ordinary Shares would then be suspended from
trading on AIM pursuant to AIM Rule 40. Admission to trading on AIM
would be cancelled six months from the date of suspension should
the reason for the suspension not have been rectified. The Board is
focused on examining opportunities for a suitable acquisition or
acquisitions which constitute a reverse takeover under AIM Rule
14.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Company Financial
Statements
for the six months ended 30 June 2018
1. General Information
The condensed financial information for the 6 months to 30 June
2018 does not constitute statutory accounts for the purposes of
Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not been audited or
reviewed. No statutory accounts for the period have been delivered
to the Registrar of Companies.
The condensed financial information in respect of the year ended
31 December 2017 has been produced using extracts from the
statutory accounts for that period. Consequently, this does not
constitute the statutory information (as defined in section 434 of
the Companies Act 2006) for the year ended 31 December 2017, which
was audited. The statutory accounts for this period have been filed
with the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report was
unqualified and did not contain a statement under Sections 498 (2)
or 498 (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The Report was approved by the Directors on 3 July 2018 and will
be available shortly on the Company's website at
www.polemos.co.uk.
Basis of preparation
The financial information has been prepared on the historical
cost basis. This statement also includes a summary of the Company's
financial position and its cash flows.
Basis of accounting
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS) as adopted by the European Union with the exception of
International Accounting Standard ('IAS') 34 - Interim Financial
Reporting. Accordingly the interim financial statements do not
include all of the information or disclosures required in the
annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with
the Company's 2017 annual financial statements.
2. Loss per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings
attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. In
accordance with IAS 33, as the Company has reported a loss for the
period, diluted earnings per share are not included. A
reconciliation is set out below:
Basic loss per 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 year.
