RC365 HOLDING PLC

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

I have great pleasure in presenting our audited financial statements to the shareholders of RC365 Holding

Plc (“RC365”, the “Company” or the “Group”) for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The Group delivered growth of revenue of about 17% to HK$14.1 million (2024: HK$12.2 million (after

restatement)). The vast majority of Group revenue continued to be generated by our wholly-owned Regal

Crown Technology Limited (“RCTech”) subsidiary, where we provide cutting-edge IT support and

development for payment and financial systems, including Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) solutions,

issuance of asset linked credit card and card top up services to SME clients in Hong Kong and the ASEAN

region.

However, a growing proportion of revenue is being accounted for by our newer activities, in line with our

stated strategy, namely the provision of issuance and top up of assets linked credit card services, by RCPAY

Limited (UK) (“RCPAY UK”), small payment institution service providers in the United Kingdom (“UK”).

During the year, RCPAY (UK and Hong Kong collectively) handled approximately HK$41.0million (2024:

HK$47.0 million) in providing payment and remittance services to clients (both individual and corporate)

based in the UK and Asia.

The development of innovative products and services, as well as geographical expansion, to attract new

customers remained a key focus for the Group. A number of new partnerships were established during the

year to advance this goal.

Now, let’s look at some of the major activities undertaken during the year in more detail.

1

Acquisition of a Money Lender License in Hong Kong

The Group acquired 100% of the issued share capital in HC Capital Group Limited, a Company holding a

Money Lender License in Hong Kong. The Group aim to provide all round financial services including

money lending to the existing and potential corporate and individual clients in Hong Kong. The Group

target to provide service initially in Hong Kong and further expanded to ASEAN and other European

countries.

2

Funding Support for the Malaysian subsidiary

Regal Crown Technology Limited received funding support from the Hong Kong Productivity Council

under the BUD scheme in developing a fully owned subsidiary for the development of the R&D centre

and the operation support hub for the Group. The funding provided by the Government was HKD685,000

for the year. Malaysian subsidiary has about 10 full time staffs working in providing full support for the

Company’s operation, finance and administrative work of the Group.

3

The number of card subscribers

RCPAY Limited (HK) (transferred to HC Capital Group Limited) has a dramatic increase for the number

of issued cards to 1,910 (2024: 1,100 cards) with about 80% increment for the number of cards. Most of

the cards are issued to our customers located in Japan.

4

Divestiture of RCPAY HK

The Group divested RCPAY HK in Nov 2024 for the amount of HK$400,000 to an unrelated

third party. There is no effect towards the exchange, remittance and payment services offered by

the group since all the activities of RCPAY HK was transferred to another wholly owned subsidiary,

RCPAY UK and there is no effect towards the services provided to existing and potential

customers.

5

Repayment of Convertible Loan Note

The Group settled outstanding Convertible Note of £1m under an arrangement during the year

through payment of £150,000 in cash, £250,000 provided by L Y S Limited under a top up

subscription agreement and the balance £600,000 was settled through several allotments during

April to August 2024 with a total number of 21,875,830 shares allotted to the Convertible Note

holder.

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions

As the Company has not consumed more than 40,000 kWh of energy in the year period, it qualifies as a

low energy user under SI 2018/1155 and is not required to report on its emissions, energy consumption or

energy efficiency activities. The Company’s energy consumption in the year is 15,412 kwh (2024: 17,731

kwh).

Strategy

Our vision remains unchanged, which is to grow our share of our existing markets, develop new capabilities

and enter new geographies within the fast growing and attractive industries in which we operate.

In particular, we intend to focus on growing our presence in Japan, the ASEAN region and the UK; broaden

our offering to include virtual banking and expand our card solutions; and explore new product innovations

that leverage Web 3.0 and artificial intelligence. A key element in achieving this will be establishing strategic

partnerships with global companies in the fintech ecosystem, which we significantly progressed during the

year.

Outlook

The Board continues to be optimistic about the outlook for FY 2026 given the advances made during FY

2025 and our growing pipeline of potential opportunities for further growth.

Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders for their continued support and

we look forward to reporting on our progress as we deliver on our growth strategy.

Based on their enquiries and the information available to them and taking into account the other risks and

uncertainties set out herein, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group

has adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the

going concern basis of accounting in preparing this financial information.

Corporate Governance

The Group has set out is full Corporate Governance Statement on page 22. The Corporate Governance

Statement forms part of this Directors’ report and is incorporated into it by cross reference.

Statement of directors’ responsibilities

The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, Directors’ Report and the financial

statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare Group and parent company financial statements for each

financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance

with UK adopted International Accounting Standards. Under company law the directors must not approve

the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of

the group and company and of the group’s profit or loss for that period. In preparing these financial

statements, the directors are required to:

Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

Select suitable accounting policies in accordance with IAS 8: Accounting Policies, Changes in

Accounting Estimates and Errors and then apply them consistently;

Present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant, reliable,

comparable and understandable information;

Provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements of UK adopted

IAS is insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events

and conditions on the Group and Parent Company’s financial position and financial performance

and

Comply with relevant UK adopted IASs, subject to any material departures being disclosed and

explained in the financial statements.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and

explain the Group and Parent Company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time

the financial position of the Group and Parent Company and enable them to ensure that the financial

statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of

the Group and Parent Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of

fraud and other irregularities.

The directors are satisfied that the Group and Parent Company has adequate resources to continue in

business for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the financial statements are prepared on a going concern

basis. The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial

information included on the Company’s website.

carbon emission with any degree of accuracy.

Supplier payment policy

It is the Group’s payment policy to pay suppliers in line with industry norms. These payables are paid on a

timely basis within contractual terms which is generally 30 to 60 days from date of receipt of invoice.

Branches outside the UK

The Group’s head office is in Hong Kong and the subsidiaries are located in Hong Kong, Malaysia, UK

and Singapore and Japan.

business, the key performances metrics that the Directors review along with a review of the key risks to the

business.

Financial instruments and risk management

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks and the impact on the Company’s financial

instruments are summarized in the Risk Management Report. Details of the Company’s financial

instruments and exposure to various risks is disclosed in note 26 to the financial statements.

burning fossil fuels.

Total emissions associated with activities under direct control of management (Scope 1 and 2 emissions)

remained at the same level in 2025 versus 2024. In terms of Energy efficiency, our energy usage was on the

same level in 2025 compared with 2024.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Environmental

The Group’s operations are conducted in such a manner that compliance is maintained with legal

requirements relating to the environment in areas where the Group conducts its business. During the period

covered by this report, the Group has not incurred any fines or penalties or been investigated for any breach

of environmental regulations.

The Directors consider that due to the nature of the Group’s operations, it does not have a significant

impact on the environment. However, the Group seeks to minimize its carbon impact and recognizes that

its activities should be carried out in an environmentally friendly manner where practicable.

The Group’s environment impact is under continual review and the Group considers related initiatives on

an ongoing basis. In 2025, these included: continued reduction of waste and, where practicable, re-use and

recycling of consumables; conducted reduction of energy, water and other resources.

Office Environments

Management engages with its office provider and its facilities management provider to ensure a safe

environment for our employees.

Environmental management is overseen by the Chief Executive Officer. The Group complies with the

Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors Report) Regulation 2013 and Companies (Directors’

Report) and Limited Liability Partnership (Energy and Carbon Report) Regulations 2018 known as SECR

(Streamlined Energy Carbon Reporting). Energy consumption and GHG emissions have been calculated

in line with the UK Government’s Environmental Reporting Guidelines; including streamlined energy and

carbon reporting guidance (March 2019). There were no prosecutions or compliance notices for breaches

of environmental legislation during the financial year.

Supply Chain

We are committed to ensuring that there is no slavery or human trafficking in our supply chain or in any

part of our business. We maintain strong working relationship with our suppliers and partners, in order to

enhance the efficiency of our business and create value, and make sure we treat suppliers in line with our

values and ethical standards. We continually assess our supplier and partner network, and leverage both

internal and external expertise to ensure appropriate relationship and fair economics.

Governance

The Board takes issues of governance seriously and seeks to ensure transparency and streamlined

administration. The Directors bring a broad range of technical, commercial, business, accounting, auditor

and corporate finance expertise. Culturally, the Board demonstrates a high degree of integrity, fairness and

non-discrimination and promotes values through the organization.

Governance

a) Describe the Board’s

oversight of climate-

related risks and

opportunities.

The Board acknowledges the financial implications

of climate change and considers the related risks

and opportunities through regular communication

between the two Executive Directors and the two

Non-Executive Directors. This communication is

focused on risks and opportunities that arise on an

ongoing informal basis.

Through those discussions the Board has assessed

that at the current time there are no climate-related

risks or opportunities that would have a material

impact on the Group or the wider community. This

is in the context of the Group currently having 25

employees and substantially all of the climate

impact of the Group being driven by regulatory

imperatives. The Board will keep this assessment

under regular review.

b) Describe management’s

role in assessing

and managing

climate-related risks and opportunities.

The Board oversees the long-term impact of

climate-related risks and opportunities on the

organisation’s strategy and risk appetite. Senior

management regularly attend ESG seminars and

relevant updates are provided to the Board. Each

staff individually will seek to make personal

decisions so as to minimise climate-related risks.

This manifests itself in seeking to minimise travel

by, for example, working from home and/or use

the Zoom/Team portal meeting with business

travellers instead of travelling.

Strategy

c) Describe the climate-

related risks and

opportunities the

organisation has

identified over the

short, medium and long

term.

The Group has not identified any material climate-

related risks and opportunities in the short-term.

Medium and longer-term assessments will depend

on what acquisitions are made by the Group and

accordingly the Board will reassess those climate-

related risks and opportunities as soon as

practically possible following an acquisition.

d) Describe the impact

of climate-related risks

and opportunities on

the organisation’s

businesses, strategy

and financial planning.

The Group has assessed the impact of climate

change risks to ensure financial resilience and

operational continuity. The conclusion is that

climate change represents a negligible impact and

that these risks are not material. Individual

employees are encouraged to take climate matters

into account when planning how they wish to work

and management offer maximum flexibility to

facilitate this.

e) Describe the resilience of the organisation’s

strategy, taking into

consideration different climate-related scenarios,

including a

2°C or lower scenario.

The Group does not foresee any impact on its

resilience arising from all foreseeable climate-

related scenarios, including a full two degrees of

warming. All climate change risks will continue to

be monitored.

those limited risks that are under their control.

h) Describe how processes

for identifying, assessing and

managing climate-related risks are

integrated into the organisation’s overall risk

management.

and long-term timeframes, ultimately determining

that these were immaterial to the balance sheet.

Metrics and Targets

(i) Disclose the metrics

used by the organisation to assess

climate-related risks and

opportunities in line with its strategy and risk

management process.

The Group does not seek to measure climate-

related risks as they are not considered material.

The Board will reconsider this position on any

material change to the Group or its activities.

(j) Disclose Scope 1, 2, and, if appropriate, Scope 3

greenhouse gas emissions, and the related risks.

The Group’s activities are outside the scope of the

Global

Reporting

Standards.

(k) Describe the targets

used by the organisation to manage climate-related

risks and

opportunities and performance against target.

The Group currently has not set specific targets or

commitments.

Notwithstanding, the Board is

pleased to note that employees continue to do what

they can to reduce climate risk by working from

home and minimise the business travel by each

employee. The Board will reconsider this position

on any material change to the Group or its

activities.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

RISK MANAGEMENT REPORT

To mitigate the risks outlined below, the Group will focus on accelerating product innovation and

expanding geographically into key regions such as ASEAN, Europe, and the UK, while tailoring offerings

to local needs. We will enhance competitiveness by implementing dynamic pricing and cost optimization,

invest in scalable infrastructure and cybersecurity to safeguard reputation and operational resilience, and

strengthen succession planning to reduce dependency on key personnel. Further, we will monitor market

trends and regulations closely, diversify payment channels to adapt to shifting consumer behaviour, and

maintain strategic agility to respond to economic, political, and social changes, ensuring sustainable growth

and profitability.

The Group has undertaken an evaluation of the risks it is exposed to which are summarised as follows:

If the Group cannot keep pace with rapid developments and change in its industry and provide

new services to its clients, the use of its services could decline, reducing its revenue and

profitability

The Group faces competitive pressure from new or existing competitors which may have more significant

financial resources, consumer awareness and scale and may introduce new products and services.

The Group’s ability to remain competitive depends in part on its ability to offer competitive pricing

Certain of the Group’s competitors may have greater financial, technological and marketing resources than

it does or, in the case of certain markets (in particular any potential new markets), greater local knowledge

and presence, greater customer bases, volume, scale and market share.

Negative publicity could impact negatively on the Group’s business and reputation

The diminution in the perceived quality associated with the Group’s products or services as a result of

reputational damage or otherwise could harm the Group’s business, which can adversely affect its ability to

attract and retain customers. The Group’s reputation could be damaged by any number of issues, including

operational or user experience failures, data breaches, or negative press or social media reports.

The Group may fail to successfully execute its strategy, including expanding its share of its

existing markets, developing new capabilities and expanding into new geographies

The Group’s future growth and profitability depend upon the growth of the markets in which it currently

operates, the future expansion of those markets, its ability to develop new products and services (such as

RC3.0, RC ERP, Prepaid Card Issuance in ASEAN, Europe and UK region) that are commercially

successful and its ability to increase its penetration and service offerings within these markets, as well as its

ability to penetrate new markets, particularly in Europe.

Dependence on key personnel

The Group is managed by a number of key personnel, including the Key Executive Directors, some of

whom have significant experience within the payments sector and who may be difficult to replace. The loss

of the Key Executive Directors and/or key senior personnel could have a material adverse effect on the

Group.

RC365 HOLDING PLC

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Demand for the Group’s products and services may be affected by global and regional changes,

including economic, social and political changes

The Group may be affected by a number of macroeconomic factors, events and conditions, including

political and social conditions (such as any policy which might affect the ability of Regal Crown HK to do

business with Chinese customers), payment habits and trends including the number of transactions

involving the Hong Kong dollar, economic growth rates, and government outlook, spending and regulation,

such as protectionist policies and legislation.

Inability to manage growth

The Group intends to grow the business. The Group’s future growth may place increasing and significant

demands on its management, operational and financial systems, infrastructure and other resources and will

therefore depend on its ability to expand and improve operational, financial and management information

and control systems in line with its growth. Failure to do so could have an adverse effect on the Group’s

business and its operating results. Further, any acquisitions will carry an element of risk, including the

difficulty of integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired business and the inability to obtain

the anticipated return from such investment.

A decline in the use of debit cards as a payments mechanism or adverse developments with respect

to the digital payments industry in general could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s

business, financial condition and results of operations

If customers do not continue to use credit or debit cards as a payments mechanism for their transactions

or if there is a change in the mix of payments between cash, alternative currencies, credit and debit cards

or new payments systems which is adverse to the Group, it could have a materially adverse effect on it

business, financial condition and results of operations. A potential tightening of credit underwriting criteria

by financial institutions may make it more difficult or expensive for customers to gain access to credit

facilities such as credit cards. Moreover, if there is an adverse development in the digital payments industry

in general, such as new legislation or regulation that makes it more difficult for the Group’s clients to do

business or which results in financial institutions seeking to charge their customers additional fees for card

usage, cardholders may reduce their reliance on cards, which could have a material adverse effect on the

Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Compliance with Licensing Terms (HK & UK):

The Group must comply with all conditions under the Hong Kong Money Lender License and UK Money

Transfer License, including reporting, operational standards, and regulatory disclosures. Failure to comply

may result in suspension, penalties, or reputational damage. Regular audits, staff training, and legal reviews

are essential to maintain licensing integrity and ensure continued business operations.

Compliance with Money Laundering Regulations:

Strict adherence to AML and CTF laws is vital. The Group must implement KYC procedures, monitor

transactions, report suspicious activity, and maintain records. Staff must be trained regularly, and systems

reviewed to meet Hong Kong’s AMLO and UK’s FCA standards. Non-compliance may lead to fines, legal

action, and reputational harm.

RC365 HOLDING PLC

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

IT Systems: Data Security Risks:

The Group must protect customer and operational data from breaches and cyber threats. This includes

encryption, access controls, regular audits, and incident response plans. Compliance with Hong Kong’s

Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and international standards like ISO 27001 is essential to maintain trust

and operational resilience.

Funding Risks:

The Group’s growth depends on stable funding. Risks include reliance on limited financiers, credit

tightening, and market volatility. Mitigation includes diversifying funding sources, maintaining liquidity

buffers, and optimizing cash flow. Transparent financial reporting and proactive investor engagement are

key to sustaining capital access and business continuity.

The Group is at risk of fraud

Combating fraud is a challenge because transactions are conducted between parties who are not physically

present, which in turn creates opportunities for misrepresentation and abuse. Online businesses are

especially vulnerable because of the convenience, immediacy and anonymity of transferring funds from one

account to another and subsequently withdrawing them.

The Group is not currently involved in the supply of any regulated services which would require a licence

or authorisation (such as the processing of transactions) I or the direct handling of client money and as

such it would not normally expect to be primarily responsible should any fraudulent activity impact a

particular transaction. However, it cannot however be excluded that the Group could be party in any

litigation or investigation in the future in relation to fraudulent transactions, even where the Group is not

directly involved. Examples of fraud could include organised criminal activity or when a person knowingly

uses a stolen or counterfeit credit or debit card, card number, or other credentials to record a false sale or

credit transaction or intentionally fails to deliver the merchandise or services sold in an otherwise valid

transaction. Criminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal activities such as

counterfeiting credit and debit cards and fraud. There is also a risk the Group’s employees could engage in

or facilitate fraudulent activity on their own behalf or on behalf of others. Moreover, is possible that

incidents of fraud could increase in the future.

The Group nonetheless takes measures to detect and reduce the risk of fraud, by carrying out checks on

the Dow Jones database before the transaction can proceed. Separate checks are also carried out by other

parties involved in the value chain. These measures may however not be effective against new and

continually evolving forms of fraud or in connection with new product offerings. If these measures do not

succeed, the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially

and adversely affected.

The Board is committed to transparent communication with shareholders through:

Annual and Interim Reports, providing a comprehensive assessment of the Company’s position

and prospects;

The AGM, which includes an open question-and-answer session;

RNS announcements and website updates, with results of shareholder meetings and voting details

published promptly.

The Company engages with stakeholders through investor presentations, conferences, and events such as

the Hong Kong Economic Summit and the AWS Summit. All reports and press releases are available at

assurance against material misstatement or loss. Key elements include:

Close management of day-to-day activities by the Executive Director;

An organisational structure with defined responsibilities;

Detailed budgeting and monthly performance reporting;

Central control over capital expenditure and banking facilities.

The Board considers an internal audit function unnecessary at this stage, given the Company’s size and

resources, but continues to review its internal control systems for compliance with best practices.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

As Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee (“the Committee”), I am pleased to present our Audit

Committee Report for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The Board has established an audit committee and a remuneration committee and delegated various

responsibilities to these committees, to assist the Board in discharging its duties and overseeing its duties

and aspects of the Company and its subsidiaries’ activities.

The Audit Committee comprises two Non-Executive Directors: Iain Muir (Chair) and Ajay Rajpal. The

Audit Committee receives, and reviews reports from the Group’s management and external auditors

relating to the interim and annual accounts and the accounting and internal control systems in use

throughout the Group.

The key responsibilities of the Committee are to:

• Review the significant issues and judgments of management, and the methodology and assumptions used

in relation to the Group’s financial statements and formal announcements on the Group’s financial

performance;

• Review the Group’s going concern assumptions;

• Assess the effectiveness of the Group’s system of internal controls, including financial reporting and

financial controls;

• Consider and make recommendations to the Board on the appointment, reappointment, dismissal or

resignation and remuneration of the external auditor; and

• Assess the independence and objectivity of the external auditor and approve and monitor the application

of the external auditor business standard.

External auditor

The Company’s external auditor is Johnsons Financial Management Limited, who were appointed with

effect from the year ended 31 March 2025. Having reviewed the auditor’s independence and performance

to date, the Committee recommended to the Board to put them forward at the AGM to stand as auditors

for the next financial period.

Internal audit

The Board considers the internal control system to be adequate for the Company. The Audit Committee

reviews the scope and scale of the non-audit services undertaken by the auditors in order to ensure that

their independence and objectivity is safeguarded. The Directors recognise the business will increase in

complexity as it grows, and they will review the internal control system to ensure it responds to any change.

The Group currently do not have an internal audit function.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holdings Plc

1. Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of RC365 Holdings Plc (the “Parent Company”) and its

subsidiaries (together the “Group”) for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Consolidated

Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated and Company Statement of Financial Position, the

Consolidated and Company Statement of Changes in Equity, the Consolidated and Company Statement of

Cash Flows, and related notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The

financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the Group’s financial statements

is applicable law and UK adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (“UK adopted IFRS”).

In our opinion the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s and of the Parent Company’s affairs as at 31

March 2025, and of the Group’s loss for the year then ended;

have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted IFRS; and

have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

2.Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and

applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s

Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the

Group and Parent Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of

the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard applicable to listed entities, and

we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with those requirements. We believe that

the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

3.Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors’ use of the going concern basis

of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors’

assessment of the Group’s and Parent Company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of

accounting included:

We confirmed our understanding of management’s going concern assessment process and engaged

with management early to ensure all key factors were considered in their assessment;

We evaluated management’s going concern assessment which included assessing their evaluation

of business and strategic plans, liquidity and funding positions for the group and the parent

company;

We assessed the appropriateness of key assumptions made by management in preparing cash flow

forecasts for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approving the financial statements;

We evaluated forecasts prepared by management to recent historical financial information

performance to confirm the accuracy of these forecasts;

We obtained direct confirmation from investors confirming planned investment into the Group

during the going concern period; and

We assessed the going concern disclosures included in the annual report for compliance with the

reporting standards.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holding Plc (continued)

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events

or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and Parent

Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the

financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in

the relevant sections of this report. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted,

this statement is not a guarantee as to the Group’s and Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going

concern.

An overview of the scope of our audit

Our audit was scoped by obtaining an understanding of the Group and its environment, including the

Group’s system of internal control, and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial

statements. We also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including assessing

whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that may have presented a risk of material misstatement.

The scope of our audit was influenced by the level of materiality we determined.

We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion

on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account an understanding of their activities, the

accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.

Our planned audit

testing was directed accordingly and was focused on areas where we assessed there to be the highest risk of

material misstatement.

During the audit we reassessed and re-evaluated audit risks and tailored our approach accordingly. The

audit testing included substantive testing on significant transactions, balances and disclosures, the extent of

which was based on various factors such as our overall assessment of the control environment, the

effectiveness of controls and the management of specific risks.

We communicated with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope

and timing of the audit and significant findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that

we identified during the audit.

Our involvement with component auditors

We designed an audit strategy to ensure that we obtained the required audit assurance for each component

for the purposes of our Group audit opinion (in accordance with ISA 600 (Revised - UK)). Components

were scoped in to address aggregation risk and to ensure sufficient coverage was obtained of group balances

on which to base our audit opinion. For the work performed by component auditors in Hong Kong and

Malaysia, we determined the level of involvement needed in order to be able to conclude whether sufficient

appropriate audit evidence has been obtained as a basis for our opinion on the Group financial statements

as a whole. Our involvement with component auditors included the following:

Detailed Group reporting instructions were sent, which included the significant areas to be covered by

the audits (including areas that were considered to be key audit matters as detailed below), and set out

the information required to be reported to the Group audit team.

The Group audit team performed procedures independently over certain key audit risk areas, as

considered necessary, including the key audit matters below.

Regular communication took place between ourselves as group auditor and the component auditors

throughout the planning and execution phases of the audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holding Plc (continued)

The Group audit team was actively involved in risk assessment and the direction of the audits

performed by the component auditors for Group reporting purposes, review of their working papers,

consideration of findings and determination of conclusions drawn.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our

audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of

material misstatement (whether due to fraud or error) we identified, including those which had the greatest

effect on the overall audit strategy; the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the

engagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements, and

in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matter description

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Going Concern

The Directors have prepared a cashflow

forecast covering monthly periods through to

31 July 2026. This forecasts that the Group and

Company being able to continue on a going

concern basis for at least the next twelve

months from the date of this report.

Significant auditor attention was focussed in

this area because of the existence of events or

conditions which may give rise to going

concern issues such as the ability of the group

to raise financing to fund its operations. In

addition, the Group has incurred losses from

operating activities for a number of reporting

periods. The loss after tax from continuing

operations for the year ended 31 March 2025

was HK$ 30,691,910 (2024: HK$ 31,586,093).

The group’s operations are mainly located in

Hong Kong.

These matters require auditor judgement on

whether the Group and Company will be able

to fund its operations and future projects for a

period at least twelve months from the date of

this report.

We performed the following audit procedures:

We confirmed our understanding of management’s

going concern assessment process and engaged with

management early to ensure all key factors were

considered in their assessment.

We checked cash at bank held at 31 March 2025 of

HK$ 11,775,409 to supporting documentation,

including bank statements. We confirmed significant

bank balances held by the Group that are considered

in management’s going concern assessment.

• We evaluated management’s going concern assessment

which included assessing their business and strategic

plans, liquidity and funding positions for the group.

We checked that the going concern assessment from

management covered a period of at least 12 mo

nths

from the expected date of approval of financial

statements. We also challenged the appropriateness

of judgements and assumptions considered by

management in the cashflow forecasts and obtained

corroborative evidence, wherever available, for key

assumptions made.

We assessed the appropriateness of management’s

forecasts by comparing them to the Group’s recent

historical financial performance and evaluating the

consistency of underlying assumptions with past

trends and available supporting evidence

We obtained direct confirmations from investors

identified by management to confirm their intention

and willingness to invest in the Group within the next

12 months, in accordance with the requirements of

ISAs (UK).

We checked whether the disclosures in the financial

statements were fairly stated, complete and accurate

in all material respects.

Conclusion:

We have completed our planned procedures.

We are of the view there are no material uncertainties

which exist in relation to the Group’s and Company’s

status as going concern.

Impairment of Intangible assets (Group)

Where indicators of impairment exist during

the reporting period, management and the

directors

are

required

to

perform

an

impairment review over the carrying values of

the Group’s intangible assets.

Management has assessed Group’s intangible

assets for impairment and has recognised

impairment provision of HK$ 19,625,320

(2024: nil) for the year ended 31 March 2025.

There are significant judgements to consider in

assessing value in use of intangible assets and

associated cashflow forecasts.

We performed the following audit procedures:

We reviewed impairment assessment performed by

management for intangible assets as of year-end.

We challenged management on the reasonableness of

their business plans supporting the recognition and

carrying value of intangible assets, including licences

and internally developed assets, and assessed the

associated forecast cash flows where applicable.

We assessed the procedures performed by the

component auditor on the impairment assessment of

ERP asset recognised by the Group as of year-end.

We involved auditor’s expert to assess and challenge

discount rate (WACC) applied by management in

discounting forecast cashflows.

We evaluated the appropriateness of the forecast

period applied by management in estimating future

free cash flows, considering the nature of the

business and industry practice.

We ensured the mathematical accuracy of the value-

in-use calculations performed by management.

We assessed the disclosures in the financial

statements for completeness and accuracy.

Conclusion: Based on the procedures performed, we

conclude that the impairment provision recognised

by

management

on

the

intangible

assets

is

appropriate as of year-end.

Impairment of investment in subsidiaries

and receivables from subsidiaries (parent

company)

Where indicators of impairment exist during

the reporting period, management and the

directors

are

required

to

perform

an

impairment review over the carrying values of

the investment in subsidiaries and receivables

We performed the following audit procedures:

We reviewed impairment assessment performed by

management for investment in subsidiaries and

Management

has

assessed

investment

in

subsidiaries and receivable from subsidiaries

for impairment and has recognised impairment

of HK$ 7,536,240 (2024: nil) and HK$

11,340,603 (2024: nil) respectively for the year

ended 31 March 2025.

There are significant judgements to consider in

assessing value in use of investment in

subsidiaries and receivables from subsidiaries

and associated cashflow forecasts.

We challenged management on the appropriateness

of the assumptions and judgments supporting the

cashflow forecasts of subsidiaries.

We involved auditor’s expert to assess and challenge

discount rate (WACC) applied by management in

discounting forecast cashflows.

We evaluated the appropriateness of the forecast

period applied by management in estimating future

free cash flows, considering the nature of the

business and industry practice of each material

subsidiary.

We ensured the mathematical accuracy of the value-

in-use calculations performed by management.

We assessed the disclosures in the financial

statements for completeness and accuracy.

Conclusion: Based on the procedures performed, we

conclude that the impairment provision recognised by

management on the intangible assets is appropriate as of

year-end.

Accounting for divestiture of subsidiary

The Group during the year has disposed RC

Pay Ltd (Hong Kong) for a consideration of

HK$ 400,000.

There is a risk that the disposal of subsidiary by

the Group and the parent company is not

accounted appropriately for the year-ended 31

March 2025.

We performed the following audit procedures:

We checked the sale agreement entered by the Group

for the sale of Hong Kong subsidiary.

We evaluated the appropriateness of accounting

performed

by

management

and

assessed

its

compliance with requirements of IFRS adopted by

the UK.

We checked the profit or loss calculations performed

by management on the sale of subsidiary.

We checked the receipt of the consideration to the

bank statement.

We assessed the disclosures in the financial

statements for completeness and accuracy including

consideration of discontinued operations as required

under IFRS adopted by the UK.

Conclusion: We have completed our planned procedures,

no material issues or exceptions have arisen.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holding Plc (continued)

Our application of materiality

Our definition of materiality considers the value of error or omission on the financial statements that,

individually or in aggregate, would change or influence the economic decision of a reasonably

knowledgeable user of those financial statements. Misstatements below these levels will not necessarily be

evaluated as immaterial as we also take account of the nature of the identified misstatements, and the

particular circumstances of their occurrence, when evaluating their effect on the financial statements as a

whole. Materiality is used in planning the scope of our work, executing that work and evaluating the results.

Materiality

Overall

materiality

HK$ 141,000 (2024: HK$ 379,800)

HK$ 39,000 (2024: HK$ 379,800)

Basis for

determining

overall

materiality

Materiality was determined based on 1%

(2024: 2%) of the Group’s revenue.

We believe that the stakeholders of Group

are primarily focused on the revenue as this

determines the success of the products

launched by the Company and its recent

acquisitions.

Materiality was determined based on the

total assets of the parent company.

The nature of the parent company is that of

holding company for the group. We believe

that the total assets as most appropriate basis

for

determining

materiality

as

the

stakeholders focus on the total assets to

assess parent company’s ability to provide

support to subsidiaries when required.

Performance

materiality

HK$ 70,000 (2023: £265,860)

We set performance materiality based on

50% (2024:70%) of overall materiality.

Performance materiality is the application of

materiality at the individual account or

balance level, set at an amount to reduce, to

an appropriately low level, the probability

that the aggregate of the uncorrected and

undetected

misstatements

exceeds

mate

riality for the financial statements as a

whole.

In determining performance materiality, we

considered several factors including our

understanding of the control environment

of the Group.

HK$ 19,500 (HK$ 265,860)

We set performance materiality based on

50% (2024:70%) of overall materiality.

Performance materiality is the application of

materiality at the individual account or

balance level, set at an amount to reduce, to

an appropriately low level, the probability

whole.

In determining performance materiality, we

considered several factors including our

understanding of the control environment

threshold

We agreed to report any corrected or

Committee as well as differences below this

reporting on qualitative grounds.

We agreed to report any corrected or

This represents 5% of the overall materiality

of the Group.

This represents 5% of the overall materiality

of the parent company.

Other matters

The financial statements of RC365 Holding Plc for the year ended 31 March 2024 were audited by another

auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion with materiality uncertainty on going concern on those

statements on 29 July 2024.

Other information

Other information comprises the information in the annual report, including Chairman’s Statement,

Strategic Report, Board of Directors, Directors Report, Risk Management Report, Corporate Governance

Statement, Audit Committee Report and Remuneration Committee Report. The directors are responsible

for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does

not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do

not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information

and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial

statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we

identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine

whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the

work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we

are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken during the audit:

the information given in Strategic Report and Director’s Report the for the financial year for which

the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

the Strategic Report and Directors Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal

requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and its environment obtained during the

audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic report and Directors Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006

requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been

received from branches not visited by us; or

the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or

we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holding Plc (continued)

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 12, the directors are

responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and

fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of

financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing

the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and Parent Company’s

ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using

the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or Parent

Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from

material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our

opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in

accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can

arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could

reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken based on these financial

statements.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design

procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of

irregularities, including fraud.

These audit procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were

free from fraud or error. The risk of not detecting material misstatement due to a fraud is higher than the

risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example,

forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

Identifying and assessing potential risks arising from irregularities, including fraud

The extent of the procedures undertaken to identify and assess the risk of material misstatement in respect

of irregularities, including fraud, included the following:

We considered the nature of the industry and sector, the control environment, business performance

including remuneration policies and the Group’s own risk assessment that irregularities might occur as

a result of fraud or error. From our sector experience and through discussions with the directors, we

obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Group focusing on

laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a direct material effect on the financial

statements, such as provisions of the Companies Act 2006, UK tax legislation, London Stock Exchange

rules and regulations, Hong Kong company law and tax laws or those that had a fundamental effect on

the operations of the Group.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

to the Members of RC365 Holding Plc (continued)

We made enquiries of the directors and management concerning the Group’s policies and procedures

relating to:

o

Identifying, evaluating, and complying with the laws and regulations and whether they were

aware of any instances of non-compliance;

o

Detecting and responding on the risks of fraud and whether they had any knowledge of actual

or suspected fraud; and

o

The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws

and regulations.

We assessed the susceptibility of the Group’s and Parent Company’s financial statements to material

misstatement, including how fraud might occur by evaluating management’s incentives and

opportunities for manipulation of the financial statements. This included utilising the spectrum of

inherent risk and an evaluation of the risk of management override of controls. We determined that

the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries creating fictitious transactions

to improve financial performance, and management bias in accounting estimates specific to impairment

of intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, impairment of investment in subsidiary and related party

receivables.

Audit response to risks identified

In respect of the above procedures:

we corroborated the results of our enquiries through review of the minutes of the Board of

directors’ meetings,

we reviewed financial statement disclosures to supporting documentation to assess compliance

with applicable laws and regulations expected to have a direct impact on the financial statements,

we performed testing of journal entries, including those processed late for financial statements

preparation, those posted by infrequent or unexpected users, those posted to unusual account

combinations,

we evaluated the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of

business and reviewed accounting estimates for bias,

we made enquiries of management around actual and potential litigation and claims,

we challenged the assumptions and judgments made by management in relation to significant

accounting estimates,

we obtained confirmations from third parties to confirm existence of certain balances, and

we communicated relevant laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team

members and remained alert to any indication of fraud or non-compliance with laws and

regulations throughout the audit.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,

including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with

regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events

and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances

of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error,

as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission, or misrepresentation.

IAS 1

Amendments – Non-current liabilities with covenants

IFRS 16

Amendments – Leases on sale and leaseback

The application of the amendments to IFRS Accounting Standards in the current year has

had no material impact on the Group’s financial positions and performance for the current

and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

2.3

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Directors are

confident in the Group and Parent Company’s ability to continue in operation existence

for the foreseeable future.

The Group and Parent Company have experienced losses and cash outflows from

operating activities; however, proactive measures have been taken to address these

challenges. Management has engaged in constructive negotiations with a potential investor,

who has demonstrated clear and ongoing commitment to supporting the business. A

written notice have been received confirmation their intent and discussion are progressing

positively.

The Directors are confident that the anticipated investment will provide sufficient capital

support to support the Group’s strategic objectives and operational requirements. Based

on this expected funding, along with continued cost management and revenue growth from

our co-branded programs, the Directors believe that there are no material uncertainties

that cast significant doubt over the ability of the Group and Parent Company to continue

on a going concern.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.3

Going Concern (Continued)

Accordingly, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate

resources to continue operation for the foreseeable future for the reason they have adopted

a going concern basis in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

2.4

Basis of consolidation

i) Business combination not under common control

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations not

under common control. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary

is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of

the acquiree and the equity interest issued by the Group, as appropriate. The consideration

transferred also includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent

consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent

liabilities assumed in a business combination not under common control is measured

initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are expensed

as incurred.

Allocation of total comprehensive income

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the

owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests (if applicable). Total

comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the Company and the non-

controlling interest (if applicable) even if this results in the non-controlling interest having

a deficit balance. The results of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.4

Basis of consolidation (Continued)

In the consolidated financial statements, the results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed

of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other

comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date

of disposal, as appropriate.

Intra-Group transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions

between Group companies are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial

statements. Profits and losses resulting from the inter-Group transactions that are

recognised in assets are also eliminated. Amounts reported in the financial statements of

subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting

policies adopted by the Group.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the profit or loss on disposal is calculated

as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received

and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the

assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary.

2.5

Foreign currency translation

In the individual financial statements of the consolidated entities, foreign currency

transactions are translated into the functional currency of the individual entity using the

exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions.

At the reporting date, monetary

assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign

exchange rates ruling at that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the

settlement of such transactions and from the reporting date retranslation of monetary

assets and liabilities are recognised in profit or loss.

Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are

retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined.

Non-

monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not

retranslated.

In the consolidated financial statements, all individual financial statements of foreign

operations, originally presented in a currency different from the Group’s presentation

currency, have been converted into Hong Kong dollars.

Assets and liabilities have been

translated into Hong Kong dollars at the closing rates at the reporting date.

Income and

expenses have been converted into the Hong Kong dollars at the exchange rates ruling at

the transaction dates, or at the average rates over the reporting period provided that the

exchange rates do not fluctuate significantly.

Any differences arising from this procedure

have been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in the

translation reserve in equity.

On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e., a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a

foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a

foreign operation, loss of joint control over a joint venture that includes a foreign

operation, or loss of significant influence over an associate that includes a foreign

operation), all of the accumulated exchange differences in respect of that operation

attributable to the Group are reclassified to profit or loss. Any exchange differences that

have previously been attributed to non-controlling interests are derecognised, but they are

not reclassified to profit or loss.

2.6

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration to be transferred by the Group as the acquirer in a business

combination is recognised at acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent adjustments to

consideration are recognised against goodwill only to the extent that they arise from new

information obtained within the measurement period (a maximum of 12 months from the

acquisition date) about the fair value at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting

for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as

measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is

classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at

subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured at

subsequent reporting dates with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in profit

or loss.

.7

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a subsidiary is measured at the excess of the

consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and

the fair value of any previously held equity interests in the acquiree over the acquisition

date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of the acquired

subsidiary.

Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiary is recognised as a separate asset and is carried at cost

less accumulated impairment losses, which is tested for impairment annually or more

frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be

impaired. For the purpose of impairment test and determination of gain or loss on

disposal, goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGU”). An impairment loss on

goodwill is not reversed.

On the other hand, any excess of the acquisition date amounts of identifiable assets

acquired and the liabilities assumed of the acquired subsidiary over the sum of the

consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and

the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree, if any, after

reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss as an income from bargain

purchase.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.7

Goodwill (Continued)

Any resulting gain or loss arising from remeasuring the previously held equity interests in

the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value is recognised in profit or loss or other

comprehensive income, as appropriate.

Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or

changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of goodwill

is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair

value less costs of disposal. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and

is not subsequently reversed.

2.8

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (other than cost of right-of-use assets as described in note

2.12 are stated at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

The acquisition cost of an asset comprises of its purchase price and any direct attributable

costs of bringing the assets to the working condition and location for its intended use.

Depreciation of assets commences when the assets are ready for intended use.

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment, is provided to write off the cost over their

estimated useful life, using the straight-line method, at the following rates per annum:

Furniture & Fixtures 20% per annum
Leasehold Improvement 20% per annum
Office Equipment 20% per annum

The assets’ depreciation methods and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate,

at each reporting date.

In the case of right-of-use assets, expected useful lives are determined by reference to

comparable owned assets or the lease term, if shorter. Material residual value estimates

and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.

The gain or loss arising on the retirement or disposal is determined as the difference

between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit

or loss.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate

asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated

with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

All other costs, such as repairs

and maintenance, are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they

are Incurred.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.9

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at costs less

accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised

on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives and

amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of

any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with

indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated

impairment losses.

Research and development expenditure

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is

incurred.

An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the

development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following

have been demonstrated:

• the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for

use or sale;

• the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;

• the ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

• how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;

• the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the

development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and

• the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during

its development.

The amount initially recognised for internally-generated intangible asset is the sum of the

expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition

criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognised,

development expenditure is recognised to profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.

Subsequent to initial recognition, internally-generated intangible assets are reported at cost

less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as

intangible assets that are acquired separately.

Intangible assets (Continued)

Derecognition of intangible assets

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are

expected from use or disposal. Gains and losses arising from derecognition of an intangible

asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying

amount of the asset, are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

2.10

Financial instruments

IFRS 9 requires an entity to address the classification, measurement and recognition of

financial assets and liabilities.

i)

Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

• those to be measured at amortised cost.

The classification depends on the Company’s business model for managing the financial

assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

The Company classifies financial assets at amortised cost only if both of the following

criteria are met:

• the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash

flows; and

• the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and

interest

ii)

Recognition

Purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date (that is, the date on

which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset). Financial assets are

derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired

or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and

rewards of ownership.

iii)

Measurement

At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the

case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs

that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of

financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.10

Financial instruments (continued)

Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows, where those

cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at amortised

cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the

effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised

directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses) together with foreign

exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line item in the

statement of profit or loss.

(iv) Impairment

The Company assesses, on a forward looking basis, the expected credit losses associated

with any debt instruments carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied

depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade

receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which

requires lifetime expected credit losses (“ECL”) to be recognised from initial recognition

of the receivables.

The Group measures the loss allowance for other receivables equal to 12-month ECL,

unless when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the

Group recognises lifetime ECL. The assessment of whether lifetime ECL should be

recognised is based on significant increase in the likelihood or risk of default occurring

since initial recognition.

Financial liabilities

The Group’s financial liabilities include lease liabilities, trade and other payables,

borrowings, contingent consideration and convertible loan note.

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for

transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through

profit or loss.

Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest

method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVPL, which are

carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other

than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging

instruments).

All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are

reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or

cancelled or expires.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

2.10

Financial instruments (continued)

Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on

substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified,

such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and

the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amount is

recognised in profit or loss.

Convertible loan note

The component of the convertible loan note that exhibits characteristics of a liability is

recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position, net of issue costs. The

corresponding dividends on those shares are charged as interest expense in profit or loss.

On the issue of the convertible loan note, the fair value of the liability component is

determined using a market rate for a similar note that does not have a conversion option;

and this amount is carried as a long-term liability on the amortised cost basis until

extinguished on conversion or redemption.

The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and

included in the convertible loan note equity reserve within shareholders’ equity, net of

issue costs. The value of the conversion option carried in equity is not changed in

subsequent years. When the conversion option is exercised, the balance of the convertible

loan note equity reserve is transferred to share capital or other appropriate reserve. When

the conversion option remains unexercised at the expiry date, the balance remained in the

convertible loan note equity reserve is transferred to accumulated profits/losses. No gain

or loss is recognised in profit or loss upon conversion or expiration of the option.

Issue costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible

loan note based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when

the instruments are first recognised. Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the

convertible loan note are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to

the allocation of proceeds.

A contract is not an equity instrument solely because it may result in the receipt or delivery

of the entity's own equity instruments. A contract that will be settled by the entity receiving

or delivering a fixed number of its own equity instruments in exchange for a fixed amount

of cash or another financial asset is an equity instrument. Accordingly, any derivative

instrument that gives one party a choice over how it is settled (e.g., the issuer or the holder

can choose settlement net in cash or by exchanging shares for cash) is a financial asset or

a financial liability. A convertible loan note that is issued in a currency other than

functional currency of the Company is a financial liability.

2.11

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term

highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are

subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

2.12

Lease

Definition of a lease and the Group as a lessee

At inception of a contract

, the Group considers whether a contract is, or contains a lease.

A lease is defined as “a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an

identified asset (the underlying asset) for a period

of

time in exchange for consideration”.

To apply this definition, the Group assesses whether the contract meets three key

evaluations which are whether:

-

the contracts contain an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the

contract or implicitly specified by being identified at the time the asset is made

available to the

Group

;

-

the

Group

has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use

of the identified asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the

defined scope of the contract; and

-

the

Group

has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period

of use. The

Group

assess whether it has the right to direct “how and for what purpose”

the asset is used throughout the period of use.

For contracts that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-

lease components, the

Group

allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease and

non-lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices.

Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee

At lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability

on the consolidated statement of financial position. The right-of-use asset is measured at

cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct

costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and

remove

the

underlying asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the

lease commencement date (net of any lease incentives received).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.12

Lease (continued)

Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee (continued)

The

Group

depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease

commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or

the end of the lease term unless the

Group

is reasonably certain to obtain ownership at

the end of the lease term. The

Group

also assesses the right-of-use asset for impairment

when such indicator exists.

At the commencement date, the

Group

measures the lease liability at the present value of

the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the

lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the

Group

’s incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed

payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable,

variable payments based on an index or rate, and amounts expected to be payable under a

residual value guarantee. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase

option reasonably certain to be exercised by the

Group

and payment of penalties for

terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the

Group

exercising the option to terminate.

Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for lease payments made

and increased for interest cost on the lease liability. It is remeasured to reflect any

reassessment or lease modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments.

The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as

expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

When the lease is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-

use asset, or profit and loss if the right-of-use asset is already reduced to zero.

The

Group

has elected to account for short-term leases using the practical expedients.

Instead of recognising a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to

these leases are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the

lease term. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 month or less.

On the consolidated statement of financial position, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities

have been presented separately.

Equity

• “Share capital” represents the nominal value of equity shares.

• “Share premium” represents the amount paid for equity shares over the nominal value.

• “Translation reserve” comprises foreign currency translation differences arising from the

translation of financial statements of the Group’s foreign entities to HK$.

• “Group reorganisation reserve” arose on the group reorganisation.

• “Accumulated losses” include all current period results as disclosed in the income

statements.

No dividends are proposed for the year.

2.14

Revenue recognition

Revenue arises mainly from contracts for IT software development.

To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Group follows a 5-step process:

Step 1: Identifying the contract with a customer

Step 2: Identifying the performance obligations

Step 3: Determining the transaction price

Step 4: Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations

Step 5: Recognising revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied

In all cases, the total transaction price for a contract is allocated amongst the various

performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. The transaction

price for a contract excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

Revenue is recognised either at a point in time or over time, when (or as) the Group

satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to its

customers.

Where the contract contains a financing component which provides a significant financing

benefit to the customer for more than 12 months, revenue is measured at the present value

of the amount receivable, discounted using the discount rate that would be reflected in a

separate financing transaction with the customer, and interest income is accrued separately

under the effective interest method. Where the contract contains a financing component

which provides a significant financing benefit to the Group, revenue recognised under

that contract includes the interest expense accreted on the contract liability under the

effective interest method.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.14

Revenue recognition (continued)

Further details of the Group’s revenue and other income recognition policies are as

follows:

Services income

Revenue from IT software development is recognised over time as the Group’s

performance creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls. The progress

towards complete satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured based on input

method, i.e. the costs incurred up to date compared with the total budgeted costs, which

depict the Group’s performance towards satisfying the performance obligation.

When the outcome of the contract cannot be reasonably measured, revenue is recognised

only to the extent of contract costs incurred that are expected to be recovered.

Remittance and payment service fee income

Remittance and payment service fee income are recognised at the time the related services

are rendered.

Media production service income

Media production service income is recognised on an appropriate basis over the relevant

period in which the services are rendered.

Interest income

Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest

method.

Contract assets and contract liabilities

If the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer

pays consideration or before payment is due, the contract is presented as a contract asset,

excluding any amounts presented as a receivable. Conversely, if a customer pays

consideration, or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is

unconditional, before the Group transfers a good or service to the customer, the contract

is presented as a contract liability when the payment is made or the payment is due

(whichever is earlier). A receivable is the Group’s right to consideration that is

unconditional or only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration

is due.

For a single contract or a single set of related contracts, either a net contract asset or a net

contract liability is presented. Contract assets and contract liabilities of unrelated contracts

are not presented on a net basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.14

Revenue recognition (continued)

For certain services provided by the Group, in accordance with the underlying service

agreements which negotiated on a case-by-case basis with customer, the Group may

receive from the customer the whole or some of the contractual payments before the

services are completed or when the goods are delivered (i.e. the timing of revenue

recognition for such transactions). The Group recognises a contract liability until it is

recognised as revenue. During that period, any significant financing components, if

applicable, will be included in the contract liability and will be expensed as accrued unless

the interest expense is eligible for capitalisation.

2.15

Government grants and non-government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable

assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all attached

conditions. Government grants are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the

period necessary to match them with the costs that the grants are intended to compensate.

Government grants relating to income is presented in gross under other income in the

consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Non-government related grants are recognised as income when there is reasonable

assurance that the entity will comply with all attached conditions and the grant will be

received. Grants shall be initially measured at the fair value of the assets received or the

nominal amount for cash grant where the grant relates to expenses already incurred, it

shall be recognized in profit or loss immediately. For grants tied to specific performance

obligations or multi-period projects, income shall be recognised using the percentage-of-

completion method, systematically matching grant revenue with the related costs.

2.16

Impairment of non-financial assets

Property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets) and intangible assets and the

Company’s interests in subsidiaries are subject to impairment testing.

An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately for the amount by which the

asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher

of fair value, reflecting market conditions less costs of disposal, and value in use.

In

assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value

using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of time value of

money and the risk specific to the asset.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, where an asset does not generate cash inflows

largely independent from those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined

for the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-

generating unit).

As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment and some

are tested at cash-generating unit level.

Goodwill in particular is allocated to those cash-

generating units that are expected to benefit from synergies of the related business

combination and represent the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is

monitored for internal management purpose and not be larger than an operating segment.

Impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash generating unit, except

that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less

cost of disposal, or value in use, if determinable.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.16

Impairment of non-financial assets (Continued)

Impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to

determine the assets’ recoverable amount and only to the extent that the assets’ carrying

amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of

depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

2.17

Employee benefits

Retirement benefits

Retirement benefits to employees are provided through defined contribution plans.

The Group participates in various defined contribution retirement benefit plans which are

available to all relevant employees. These plans are generally funded through payments to

schemes established by governments or trustee-administered funds. A defined

contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays contributions on a

mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis into a separate fund. The Group has no legal or

constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient

assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee services in the current and

prior years. The Group’s contributions to the defined contribution plans are recognised

as an expense in profit or loss as employees render services during the year.

Short-term employee benefits

Liability for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave, long service

leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting

date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting

date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

2.18

Related parties

For the purposes of these consolidated financial statements, a party is considered to be

related to the Company if:

(a)

the party is a person or a close member of that person’s family and if that person:

(i)

(ii)

has significant influence over the Group; or

management personnel services to the Group or to the parent of the Group.

Close family members of an individual are those family members who may expected to

influence, or be influenced by, that individual in their dealings with the entity.

2.19

Accounting for income taxes

Taxation comprises current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax is based on taxable profit or loss for the period. Taxable profit or loss differs

from profit or loss as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of

income and expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes

items that are never taxable or deductible. The asset or liability for current tax is calculated

using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and

liabilities in the financial information and the corresponding tax bases used in the

computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and

deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will

be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets

and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from initial recognition

of goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other

assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the

accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on

investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the

temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in

the foreseeable future.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

2.19

Accounting for income taxes (Continued)

Deferred tax is calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply in

the period the liability is settled or the asset realised, provided they are enacted or

substantively enacted at the reporting date.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and

reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be

available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the

tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled, or the asset

realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited to profit or loss, except when it relates to

items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt

with in equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right set off

current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied

by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and

liabilities on a net basis.

2.20

Earnings per ordinary share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares.

Basic earnings per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to

Shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the

reporting period.

Diluted earnings per ordinary share is calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of

ordinary shares for the effects of dilutive potential ordinary shares.

2.21

Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting

provided to the chief operating decision-makers. The chief operating decision-makers,

who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating

segments, has been identified as the executive board of Directors.

All operations and information are reviewed together.

During the year, in the opinion of

the Directors, there is only one reportable operating segment of IT software development

in Hong Kong due to its significant portion of operation among all business activities.

KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies which are described in note 2, Directors

have made the following judgement that might have significant effect on the amounts recognised

in the consolidated financial statements. The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key

sources of estimation uncertainty at the statement of financial position date, that might have a

significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities

within the next financial year, are also discussed below.

Discount rate of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets determination

In determining the discount rate, the Group is required to exercise considerable judgement in

relation to determining the discount rate taking into account the nature of the underlying assets,

the terms and conditions of the leases, at the commencement date and the effective date of the

modification. The Group’s rate is referenced to the related party bank borrowing in Hong Kong.

Fair value measurements and valuation processes

Some of the Group’s financial assets are measured at fair value for financial reporting purposes.

In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market-observable data to the

extent it is available. Where Level 1 and Level 2 inputs are not available, the Group engages an

independent firm of professional valuers to perform the valuation. In relying on the valuation

report, the Directors have exercised their judgement and are satisfied to establish the appropriate

valuation techniques and inputs to the model. The fluctuation in the fair value of the assets and

liabilities is reported and analysed periodically.

The Group uses valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market

data to estimate the fair value of certain types of financial instruments. Judgement and estimation

are required in establishing the relevant valuation techniques and the relevant inputs thereof. Whilst

the Group considers these valuations are the best estimates, the ongoing changes in market

conditions that may result in greater market volatility and may cause further disruptions to the

investees’/issuers’ businesses, which have led to higher degree of uncertainties in respect of the

valuations in the current year. Changes in assumptions relating to these factors could result in

material adjustments to the fair value of these consolidated financial instruments. Detailed

information about the valuation techniques, inputs and key assumptions used in the determination

of the fair value of various assets and liabilities are set out in note 15, 24 and 26.6.

Impairment of goodwill

The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an

estimation of the value in use of the CGU to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value

in use requires the management to choose a suitable valuation model and make estimation of the

key valuation parameter and other relevant business assumptions.

Impairment of intangible assets

The Group reviews the carrying amounts of its intangible assets to determine whether there is any

indication that these assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the

recoverable amount of the relevant asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the

impairment loss (if any).

Docusign Envelope ID: 914DA166-1C03-4FFE-8D1E-46FD3CC59914

|

Page

The recoverable amount of intangible assets are estimated individually. When it is not possible to

estimate the recoverable amount individually, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the

CGU to which the asset belongs. In testing a cash-generating unit for impairment, corporate assets

are allocated to the relevant cash-generating unit when a reasonable and consistent basis of

allocation can be established, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash

generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be established. The

recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit or group of cash-generating units

to which the corporate asset belongs, and is compared with the carrying amount of the relevant

cash-generating unit or group of cash-generating units. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair

value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash

flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market

assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset (or a CGU) for which

the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount,

the carrying amount of the asset (or a CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. For corporate

assets or portion of corporate assets which cannot be allocated on a reasonable and consistent

basis to a CGU, the Group compares the carrying amount of a group of CGUs, including the

carrying amounts of the corporate assets or portion of corporate assets allocated to that group of

CGUs, with the recoverable amount of the group of CGUs. In allocating the impairment loss, the

impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill (if applicable) and

then to the other assets on a pro-rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit

or the group of CGUs. The carrying amount of an asset is not reduced below the highest of its fair

value less costs of disposal (if measurable), its value in use (if determinable) and zero. The amount

of the impairment loss that would otherwise have been allocated to the asset is allocated pro rata

to the other assets of the unit or the group of CGUs. An impairment loss is recognised immediately

in profit or loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to

the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not

exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been

recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately

in profit or loss.

Impairment of investment in subsidiaries and receivables from group companies

Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the

carrying amount may not be recoverable. Potential indications of impairment may include

significant adverse changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment in which

the assets operate or whether there has been a significant or prolonged decline in value below their

cost. “Significant” is evaluated against the original cost of the investment and “prolonged” against

the period in which the fair value has been below its original cost.

An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its

recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell

and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels

for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Impaired assets are

reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

In the Company’s balance sheet, impairment testing of investments in subsidiaries and receivables

from group companies, are also required upon if the carrying amount of that entity in the

Company’s balance sheet exceeds the carrying amount of that entity’s net assets including goodwill

in its consolidated balance sheet.

Details of impairment losses are as follow:

HK$ HK$
Impairment losses on intangible assets (note i) 19,625,320 -
Impairment losses on loan receivables (note ii) 3,257,981 -
Impairment losses on goodwill (note iii) 759,289 -
23,642,590 -

(i)

Impairment losses on intangible assets of HK$19,625,320 was recognised during the year

end 31 March 2025. Where an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment

testing for an asset is required, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s

recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s or CGU’s value in use and its fair value less

costs of disposal. An impairment loss is recognised only if the carrying amount of an asset

exceeds its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows

are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current

market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

(ii)

Impairment losses on loan receivables of HK$3,257,981 was recognised during the year

end 31 March 2025. the Group assessed the recoverability based on factors such as the

latest status of loans receivables, publicly available or accessible information about the

borrowers, the value of the collaterals, and the latest financial condition of the borrowers

and guarantors, and made provision for relevant impairment based on the difference

between the recoverable amount and the outstanding amount of the loan as at 31 March

2025.

(iii)

Impairment losses on goodwill of HK$759,289 was recognised during the year end 31

March 2025. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at 31 March

2025. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the Group’s cash

generating units (“CGUs”) (group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. Where the

recoverable amount of the CGU (group of CGUs) is less than the carrying amount, an

impairment loss is recognised.

The Group has experienced losses and cash outflows from operating activities; however,

proactive measures have been taken to address these challenges. Management has engaged

in constructive negotiations with a potential investor, who has demonstrated clear and

ongoing commitment to supporting the business. A written notice have been received and

discussion are progressing positively. The management has therefore based on that to

prepare its cash flow projections to undertake impairment testing on goodwill, intangible

assets and loan receivables. Taking into account the forecasted revenue and growth rate

of the CGU, the Management considered that it was appropriate to take a conservative

approach to recognise impairment losses. In view that the carrying amount of the goodwill,

intangible assets and loan receivables of CGU was higher than the recoverable amount,

goodwill, intangible assets and loan receivables of CGU were impaired for the year ended

31 March 2025.

other group entities not qualified for the two-tier profits tax regime will continue to be taxed at flat

rate of 16.5%. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these losses due to the

unpredictability of future taxable profits streams of the subsidiaries in Hong Kong.

Goodwill was derived from the acquisition of 100% equity interests in Mr. Meal Production Limited

("Mr. Meal") and its subsidiary (together the "Mr. Meal Group") at an aggregate consideration of

HK$2,000,000 in July 2023. The excess of the consideration transferred over the acquisition-date

fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of HK$759,289 is recognised

as goodwill. At 31 March 2025, the directors assessed the recoverable amount of the goodwill with

reference to the cash flow projection of Mr. Meal Group and recognised an impairment provision

of HK$759,289 against goodwill.

cash flows. The directors consider the licenses as having indefinite useful lives because they are

expected to contribute to net cash inflows indefinitely. The licenses will not be amortised until

their useful life are determined to be finite.

During the year ended 31 March 2025, the Group reviewed the recoverable amounts of the

money lending license. No impairment loss has been recognised during the year.

On 22 February 2023, the Company as an issuer entered into a share subscription

agreement with Hatcher Group Limited (a company listed on the Growth Enterprise

Market of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, stock code: 8365) (the “Subscriber” or

“Hatcher Group”), pursuant to which the Subscriber conditionally agreed to subscribe for,

and the Company conditionally agreed to issue and allot, an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares

at the subscription price of £0.19 per subscription share for a total consideration of

£3,420,000 (the “Subscription”). The consideration for the Subscription was to be settled

by the Subscriber by way of the issue and allotment of an aggregate of 38,640,000 shares

of the Subscriber at the issue price of HK$0.90 per share to the Company upon completion

of the Subscription.

The Subscription was completed on 17 April 2023 and the consideration was settled by

way of issue and allotment of an aggregate of 38,640,000 shares of the Subscriber at the

issue price of HK$0.90 each, totalling HK$34,776,000.

The fair values of the equity investments were determined on the basis of quoted market

bid price at the end of the reporting period.

During the year ended 31 March 2025, fair value loss on equity investments of

HK$661,824 was recognised in profit or loss.

The Group allows an average credit period of 14 days to its trade customers. Before accepting

any new customer, the Group assesses the potential customer’s credit quality and defines its

credit limits. Credit sales are made to customers with a satisfactory trustworthy credit history.

Credit limits attributed to customers are reviewed regularly.

Over 90 days 138,000 342,500
772,471 2,349,282

Trade receivables that were past due but not impaired relate to a number of customers that have a

good track record with the Group. Based on past experience, the Directors believe that no

impairment allowance is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant

change in credit quality and the balances are still considered fully recoverable.

As at 31 March 2025 and 2024, no ECL has been provided for trade and other receivables, deposit

and prepayment. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

The Directors consider that the fair values of trade and other receivables, and deposit and

prepayment are not materially different from their carrying amounts because these balances have

short maturity periods on their inception.

The loans to independent third parties are unsecured, bearing interest at 10% (2024: 10%) per

annum and with fixed terms of repayment. As at 31 March 2025, the Directors consider that their

carrying amounts exceeded their recoverable amount in light of the significant increase in the credit

risk of the counterparty. Accordingly, the carrying amounts of loan receivables were written down

to their recoverable amounts and thus, provision for impairment losses of HK$3,257,981 were

recognised against the loan receivables.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Group is exposed to financial risks through its use of financial instruments in its ordinary

course of operations and in its investment activities. The financial risks include market risk

(including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

(CONTINUED)

26.2

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial

instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Group’s

exposure to currency risk mainly arises from the fluctuation of each the following currency

against the functional currencies of the relevant entities now comprising the Group. The

carrying amounts of the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary

liabilities other than the functional currencies of the relevant entities comprising the

Group are as follows. The management closely monitors foreign exchange exposure to

mitigate the foreign currency risk.

2025 2024
Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities
HK$ HK$ HK$ HK$
GBP 3,302,669 4,817,368 32,676,769 7,430,057

4,200,733 5,577,942 34,348,091 8,305,152

A 1% increase in the GBP/HKD is expected to have an impact of HK$15k.

26.3

Interest rate risk

The Group has no significant interest-bearing assets. Cash at bank earns interest at floating

rates based on daily bank deposits rates.

The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank

borrowings. It is the Group’s policy to keep its borrowings at floating rate of interest to

minimize the fair value interest rate risk. The Group currently does not have hedging

policy. However, the Directors monitor interest rate exposure and will consider necessary

action when significant interest rate exposure is anticipated.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest

rates for variable-rate borrowings. The analysis is prepared assuming the borrowings

outstanding at the end of the reporting period were outstanding for the whole year. A 100

basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to

Directors and represents Directors’ assessment of the reasonably possible change in

interest rates. If interest rates had been 100 basis point higher/lower and all other variables

were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax loss for the year would increase/decrease by

HK$38,845 (2024: HK$45,399). This is mainly attributable to the Group’s exposure to

interest rates on its variable-rate bank borrowings.

26.4

Credit risk

The Group’s exposure to credit risk mainly arises from granting credit to customers and

other counterparties in the ordinary course of its operations. The Group’s maximum

exposure to credit risk for the components of the consolidated statement of financial

position at 31 March 2025 refers to the carrying amount of financial assets as disclosed in

note 26.1.

The exposures to credit risk are monitored by the Directors such that any outstanding

debtors are reviewed and followed up on an ongoing basis. The Group’s policy is to deal

only with creditworthy counterparties. Payment record of customers is closely monitored.

Normally, the Group does not obtain collateral from debtors.

Trade receivables

The Group has applied the simplified approach to assess the ECL as prescribed by IFRS

9. To measure the ECL, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk

characteristics and the past due days. In calculating the ECL rates, the Group considers

historical elements and forward looking elements. Lifetime ECL rate of trade receivables

is assessed minimal for all ageing bands as there was no recent history of default and

continuous payments were received. The Group determined that the ECL allowance in

respect of trade receivables for the years ended 31 March 2025 and 2024 is minimal as

there has not been a significant change in credit quality of the customers.

Other financial assets at amortised cost

Other financial assets at amortised cost include deposits, other receivables, loan

receivables and cash and cash equivalents.

The Directors are of opinion that there is no significant increase in credit risk on deposits,

other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents since initial recognition as the risk of

default is low after considering the factors as following:

-

any changes in business, financial or economic conditions that affects the debtor’s

ability to meet its debt obligations;

-

any changes in the operating results of the debtor;

-

any changes in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the debtor

that affects the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations.

The Group has assessed that the ECL for deposits, other receivables and loan receivables

are minimal under the 12-months ECL method as there is no significant increase in credit

risk since initial recognition. The credit risk with related parties is limited because the

counterparties are fellow subsidiaries. The Directors have assessed the financial position

of these related parties and there is no indication of default.

The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents are considered negligible as the counterparties

are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk relates to the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its obligations

associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial

asset.

The Group’s prudent policy is to regularly monitor its current and expected liquidity

requirements, to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash and cash equivalents

to meet its liquidity requirements in the short term and longer term.

Analysed below are the Group’s remaining contractual maturities for its non-derivative

financial liabilities as at the reporting date.

When the creditor has a choice of when the

liability is settled, the liability is included on the basis of the earliest date when the Group

is required to pay.

Where settlement of the liability is in instalments, each instalment is

allocated to the earliest period in which the Group is committed to pay.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

(CONTINUED)

26.6

Fair values measurement

The following presents the assets and liabilities measured at fair value or required to

disclose their fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis across

the three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”

with the fair value measurement categorised in its entirety based on the lowest level input

that is significant to the entire measurement. The levels of inputs are defined as follows:

• Level 1 (highest level): quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets

or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date;

• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for

the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly;

• Level 3 (lowest level): unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

(a)

Assets measured at fair value

During the year, there were no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2, nor transfer into

and out of Level 3 fair value measurements.

(b)

Assets and liabilities with fair value disclosure, but not measured at fair value

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities that are carried at amortised

costs are not materially different from their fair values at the end of each reporting

period.

27.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group’s capital management objectives are to ensure its ability to continue as a going concern

and to provide an adequate return for shareholders by pricing services commensurately with the

level of risks.

The Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure and makes adjustments

in light of changes in economic conditions. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the

Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new shares or raises new

debt financing.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation:

The separate financial statements of the Company are presented as required by the Companies Act

2006. As permitted by that Act, the separate financial statements have been prepared in accordance

with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards.

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The principal accounting

policies adopted are the same as those set out in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements are presented in Hong Kong Dollars ("HK$"), which is the Group's

functional and presentational currency, and rounded to the nearest dollar. In addition, investments

in subsidiaries are stated at cost less, where appropriate, provision for impairment.

36.

LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS

Under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the Company is exempt from the requirement to

present its own income statement. The loss attributable to the Company for the year ended 31

March 2025 was HK$ 46,769,021. (2024 (restated): loss of HK$ 37,172,728)

37.

STAFF COSTS

During the years ended 31 March 2025 and 2024, all Directors and staff are employed by wholly

owned subsidiaries of the Company, and therefore there were no Directors’ remuneration and staff

costs.

38.

AMOUNT DUE FROM A SUBSIDIARY/DUE TO A SUBSIDIARY

The amounts due are unsecured, interest-free and repayable on demand. As at 31 March 2025, the

balances with group companies will be settled on a net basis and accordingly netted in the company

financial statements. As a result, the balance of Cast Great Investments Limited was HK$230,521

presented in amount due from a subsidiary and the balance of RC365 Global Limited was HK$

1,298,847 and the balance of RCPAY Limited was HK$135,493 presented in amount due to

subsidiaries.

39.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

39.1

Credit risk

The main credit risk is amount due from a subsidiary and cash and cash equivalents. In

order to minimise the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team

responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring

procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition,

the Group reviews regularly the recoverable amount of other receivables and amount due

from a subsidiary to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable

amounts. Assessments done based on the Group’s historical settlement records, past

experience, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current conditions

at the reporting date as well as the forecast of future conditions. In this regard, the

management considers that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced. Other

receivables and amount due from a subsidiary are written off when there is no reasonable

expectation of recovery.

39.2

Liquidity risk

The main liquidity risk relates to the other payables and amount due to a subsidiary. The

Company’s prudent policy is to regularly monitor its current and expected liquidity

requirements, to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves to meet its liquidity

requirements in the short term and longer term.

39.3

Fair value measurement

The following presents the assets and liabilities measured at fair value or required to

disclose their fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis across

the three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”

with the fair value measurement categorised in its entirety based on the lowest level input

that is significant to the entire measurement. The levels of inputs are defined as follows:

• Level 1 (highest level): quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets

or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date;

• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for

the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly;

• Level 3 (lowest level): unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

(c)

Assets measured at fair value

During the year, there were no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2, nor transfer into

and out of Level 3 fair value measurements.

(d)

Assets and liabilities with fair value disclosure, but not measured at fair value

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities that are carried at amortised

costs are not materially different from their fair values at the end of each reporting

period.

39.4

Capital risk management

The Company’s capital management objectives are to ensure its ability to continue as a

going concern and to provide an adequate return for shareholders.

The Company actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure and makes

adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions. In order to maintain or adjust the

capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders,

issue new shares or raises new debt financing.
