Commentary
During the six-month period ended 30 June 2021, FFG recorded a slightly larger loss of $7,927,429 compared to $6,222,649 during the same period a year ago. The slightly bigger loss recorded during the six-month period ended 30 June 2021 is mainly due to one-off share-based payment to executives, which was approved by FFG shareholders via an extraordinary general meeting on 23 March 2021.
Excluding this one-off expense, the FFG would have recorded a much smaller loss of $1,284,176.
FFG notes that this payment was one-off and the executives achieved the performance milestones that entitled them to the share-based payment.
During the six-month period ended 30 June 2021, FFG has been aggressively expanding its investment in the fintech sector:
| April 2021 | Acquisition of 100% of Forever Pay Sdn Bhd, which holds a moneylending license in Malaysia that will pave the way for FFG’s launchingof its retail BNPL service and other digital financing solutions in Malaysia |
