("daVictus" or the "Company")

Interim results for the 6 months ended 30 June 2018

 

                            

Chairman's Statement 

 I am pleased to report the condensed interim financial statements of Davictus PLC (the "Company" or "Davictus") for the six months ended 30 June 2018.

For the first half of 2018, the Directors have actively discussed with potential target companies in the food and beverages ("F&B") sector - which operate in or own Western food and beverage F&B eatery franchises in South East Asia and/or the Far East, however, none of which has met the necessary criteria for selection to date.

While we continue our efforts to identify targets for acquisition, the Company has sufficient funds for general corporate purposes and pre-acquisition activities, including on-going costs and expenses such as Directors' fees and salaries, due diligence costs and other costs of sourcing, reviewing and to pursue potential acquisitions.

We are encouraged by both business opportunities and positive start we have made to the current year and we would always remain optimistic in respect of target acquisition.

I look forward to the year ahead with gratitude to the support from our shareholders.

 

Director's Statement

During the reporting period, the Company reported a net loss of £58,099

At 30 June 2018, the Company had cash in bank of £431,122.

There are a number of potential risks and uncertainties which may have material impact on the Company's performance over the remaining six months of the financial year and could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. The directors do not consider any changes on the principal risks and uncertainties since the publication of the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2017, which contained a detailed explanation of the risks relevant to the Company, is also available at http://www.davictus.co.uk.

 

The Board looks forward to providing further updates to the shareholders in due course.
