Chairman's Statement:

In the period under review, our engineering team have concluded stage three out of four on the electronic updates on the Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) system. The team are aiming to complete stage four over the next few weeks. They will then continue to carry out longevity testing of the WHR system. The company is still on track to complete this task on the projected timeline between mid to end of the 2nd quarter of 2024 as per our previous announcement. On completion of the WHR system, the unit is targeted to achieve its intended peak performance of 131kW.

The team have also between from late December 2023 and March 2024 started the process of relocating back to the United Kingdom and will seek appropriate premises to enable completion of the final stages of development and provide a base to exhibit the technology to prospective broad range of clients.

Also as previously announced, discussions are still currently ongoing with both a major automotive group and with an alternative combustion manufacturer to potentially partner on exciting future developments relating to the Charger.

The board will provide further updates in due course.

Consolidated Notes to the Interim Financial Information

1.   General Information

The principal activity of Inspirit Energy Holdings PLC ("the Company") during the period was that of an investment company which aims to invest in disruptive products or technologies that are either proven or at the later stages of development, which own or have exclusive licence to the relevant intellectual property.

Inspirit Energy Holdings PLC is a company incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales and quoted on AIM, a market operated by the London Stock Exchange. The address of its registered office is 200 Aldersgate Street, London EC1A 4HD, United Kingdom.

2.   Basis of Preparation

The interim financial information set out above does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of the Companies Act 2006.  It has been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. Statutory financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2023 were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 December 2023 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors on those financial statements was unqualified.

The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 December 2023 has not been reviewed or audited.  The interim financial report has been approved by the Board on 27 March 2024.

Going concern

The Directors, having made appropriate enquiries, consider that adequate resources exist for the Company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and that, therefore, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2023.

Risks and uncertainties

The Board continuously assesses and monitors the key risks of the business. The key risks that could affect the Company's medium-term performance and the factors that mitigate those risks have not substantially changed from those set out in the Company's 2023 Annual Report and Financial Statements, a copy of which is available on the Company's website: www.inspirit-energy.com. The key financial risks are liquidity and credit risk.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates are set out in note 2 of the Company's 2023 Annual Report and Financial Statements. The nature and amounts of such estimates have not changed significantly during the interim period.

3.   Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2023, as described in those annual financial statements.

4.  Segmental Analysis

The Company's primary reporting format is business segments and its secondary format is geographical segments. The Company only operates in a single business and geographical segment. Accordingly, no segmental information for business segment or geographical segment is required.

5.   Loss per Share

The loss per ordinary share is based on the Group's loss for the period of £149,000 (company's loss - 6 months to 31 December 2022 £143,000; year ended 30 June 2023 - £260,000) and a basic number of ordinary shares of £0.0001 each in issue of 6,287,190,896 (4,271,640,186 for 31 December 2022 and  4,271,640,186 for 30 June 2022).
