REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To: The Shareholders of Phoenix Group PLC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of Phoenix Group PLC (referred to as the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (referred to as the “Group”) as at 31 March 2024 and the related condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss, other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended and explanatory notes.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed consolidated interim financial statement in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting (referred to as “IAS 34”) . Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed consolidated interim financial statement based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . A review of condensed consolidated interim financial statement consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Other Matter

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of the Group for the three months period ended 31 March 2023 were not reviewed.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statement is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

For RAI, LLP,

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the financial performance and position of the Company, its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) and the Group’s interest in its equity-accounted investees.

2 Summary of material accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied by the Group in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied by the Group in the annual consolidated financial statement for the year ended 31 December 2023, except for the changes in accounting policies explained in Note 2.2.

2.1 Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three-months period ended 31 March 2024 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and comply where appropriate, with the Articles of Association, the applicable requirements of Abu Dhabi Global Market (“ADGM”) Companies Regulations 2020.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2023 (‘last annual financial statements’). They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards IFRS. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain event and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group have been prepared on a going concern basis given that there are no significant doubts about the Group’s ability to continue its business activities.

Basis of measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for investment at fair value through profit or loss, digital assets and building, which are measured at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

Going concern assumption

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group have been prepared on a going concern basis given that there are no significant doubts on the Group’s ability to continue its business activities. In assessing the going concern, the management has performed an assessment of the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern by preparing a detailed business plan and cash flow forecast taking into consideration the current financial performance and condition of the Group’s business, the degree to which it is affected by external factors and the current liquidity position, including debt repayment obligations.

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements (continued) For the three months period ended 31 March 2024

  • 2 Summary of material accounting policies (continued)

  • 2.2 Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

  • (a) New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group applied for the first-time certain standards and amendments, which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective:

  • Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)

  • Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1)

  • Supplier Finance Arrangements (Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7)

These standards and amendments had no significant impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group.

  • (b) Standards issued but not yet effective

The new and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Group’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements are disclosed below. The Group intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective.

  • Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (New standard IFRS 18)

  • Lack of exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21)

  • Sale or contribution of assets between and investor and its associate or joint venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28)

The Group does not expect that the adoption of these new and amended standards and interpretations will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

2.3 Consolidation

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Control is achieved when the Company has all of the following elements:

  • power over the investee, i.e. the investor has existing rights that give it the ability to direct the relevant activities (the activities that significantly affect the investee’s returns)

  • exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee

  • the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.

All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between the members of the Group are eliminated on consolidation.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and of its subsidiaries as disclosed in the annual audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023. The financial year end for the subsidiaries is the same as that of the Group.

2 Summary of material accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Commodity contract

A contract to buy or sell a commodity that can be settled net in cash or another financial instrument, or by exchanging financial instruments, as if the contract was a financial instrument, may be irrevocably designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss even if it was entered into for the purpose of the receipt or delivery of a commodity in accordance with the entity’s expected purchase, sale or usage requirements. This designation is available only at inception of the contract and only if it eliminates or significantly reduces a recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from not recognising that contract.

3 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the last annual consolidated financial statements.

4 Fair value estimation

The fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. Consequently, differences can arise between carrying values and the fair value estimates.

While the Group prepares its condensed consolidated interim financial statements under the historical cost convention except for measurement at fair value of derivatives, in the opinion of management, the carrying values and fair values of those financial assets and liabilities that are not carried at fair value in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not materially different, since assets and liabilities are either short term in nature or frequently repriced.

The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

The below table shows the hierarchy used by the Group for the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value or for which fair value information is disclosed as at 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023:

161,704,262

On a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. During the period between 31 March 2024 and 31 December 2023, there are no transfers within the levels of fair value measurements.

The fair values were determined with reference to market-based evidence, based on active market prices and relevant enquiries and information as considered necessary, and adjusted for any difference in nature, location or condition of the specific properties. The fair value of said lands falls under level 2 of fair value hierarchy (i.e. significant observable inputs).

Capital work-in-progress pertains to data centers which are under construction at USA and Oman. The management of the Group expect the projects relating to capital work-in-progress to completed by 2025.

(a) Accounted for using inventory methodology

The Group has determined that its holding of certain digital asset should be accounted for under IAS 2 Inventories, as it meets the definition of a commodity broker-trader. Under IAS 2, digital assets are measured at fair value less cost to sell, with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated statement profit or loss. In accordance with IAS 2, commodity broker-traders are those who buy or sell commodities for others or on their own account. The inventories held by commodity broker-traders are principally acquired for the purpose of selling in the future and generating a profit from fluctuations in price or broker-traders’ margin. As these inventories are measured at fair value less costs to sell, they are excluded from only the measurement requirements of IAS 2.

7 Digital assets (continued)

By applying the principles of IAS 2, the Group treats its digital assets as inventory, measured at fair value less cost to sell. Consequently, any changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Management believes that recognizing digital assets at fair value through the profit and loss accurately reflects the economic substance of their trading activities and is in line with the Group's overall strategic vision for holding these assets.

*During the period, the entity has entered into a financing transaction with M2 Capital Limited (“associate”), where finance amount is invested in the Bitcoins (BTC) as commodity contract. The total of 236.16 BTC were purchased through this finance. The total finance amount was USD 12.08 million. These 236.16 BTC’s are kept as collateral with M2 Capital Limited against the finance amount (note 15).

(b) Accounted for using intangible asset methodology

The Group carries out mining of digital assets and recognizes revenue in relation to assets through mining activity with corresponding recognition of intangible assets under IAS 38, Intangible Assets. Such intangible assets have an indefinite useful life, initially measured at cost, deemed to be the fair value upon receipt, and subsequently measured under the revaluation model. Under the revaluation model, increases or decreases in the digital asset’s carrying amount is recognized in consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the revaluation reserve in equity, unless it reverses valuation deficit of the same asset previously recognised in consolidated statement of profit or loss. A revaluation deficit is recognised in consolidated statement of profit or loss, except to the extent that it offsets an existing surplus on the same asset recognised in the revaluation reserve.

8 Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost method.

Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
