("Fiinu" or the "Company" or the "Group")

Half-Year results for the six months ended 30 June 2025

 

 

Fiinu, a fintech group, creator of the Plugin Overdraft®, and recently re-admitted to trading on the AIM following the Acquisition of Everfex P.S.A., announces its unaudited half-year results for the six months ended 30 June 2025.

 

Business Highlights

 

·   White-labelled Plugin Overdraft® Partnership: In January 2025, the Company announced non-binding heads of terms for its first white-label deal with a UK bank, providing an AI-driven Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform that includes its Plugin Overdraft®. The platform will integrate with the bank's existing systems, marking a key milestone in Fiinu's growth. The UK bank is expected to launch this product in Q4 2025.

·    Capital Raised Through Share Issuance: In February 2025, the Company raised £1,250,000 by issuing 12.5 million new ordinary shares at an issue price of 10 pence each. The funds being used to further develop the Plugin Overdraft® as a white-label product and to support working capital needs.

·    Software Reactivation: In March 2025, the Company reactivated core Banking services provided by Tuum supporting the white-label Plugin Overdraft® alongside building in-house developer capacity.

·   Strategic Focus: While costs increased in the first half of the year, driven by efforts to complete the acquisition of Everfex PSA and the re-admission to trading on AIM, both milestones were successfully achieved in August 2025, positioning the Group for the next phase of growth.

Post Period End Highlights

 

·    Completed the Acquisition of Everfex P.S.A.: In August 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Everfex P.S.A. from Granicus Holdings OU, for an initial consideration of £8 million, to be satisfied through the issue of 80,000,000 new ordinary shares, at a price of 10p per new ordinary share. Additional consideration of £4 million may be payable after 1 January 2026 if Everfex achieves certain performance criteria, which would be satisfied through the issue of 20,000,000 additional new ordinary shares at an issue price of 20p per new ordinary share. This acquisition constituted a reverse takeover under the AIM Rules and was approved by shareholders in a General Meeting on 26 August 2025.

·    Capital Raised Through Acquisition: In August 2025, the Company successfully raised approximately £0.8 million through a conditional cash subscription via the issuance of 8,010,000 new ordinary shares at an issue price of 10 pence per share, as part of the Everfex P.S.A. acquisition.

·    Diversified Corporate Leadership: In August 2025, the Group announced the appointments of two new plc Directors and two senior managers, alongside changes to the CFO position. These appointments enhance the breadth and depth of financial services expertise across the Group.

·  Capital Raised Through Subscription: In September 2025, the Company entered into subscription agreements to raise £1.4 million by issuing new ordinary shares at an issue price of 15 pence per share, reflecting a 50% premium to the subscription price announced on 6 August 2025.

·    Warrant Overhang Settlement: In September 2025, the Company reached a mutual agreement with GEM to terminate the GEM Facility, including outstanding warrants through the issuance of "Settlement Shares," resulting in a termination payment of £1.15 million, satisfied by the issuance of 7,666,667 new ordinary shares in the Company at 15 pence per share and reducing the existing overhang on Fiinu's capital structure

 

Financial Highlights

·    As at 30 June 2025 the Company's cash balance was £643,490.

·    The loss before tax for the period was £980,338.  This reflects the increased costs associated with the development of the white-label solution and the preparatory work for the Everfex P.S.A. acquisition.

Dr Marko Sjoblom, Fiinu's Chief Executive said:

"The first half of 2025 has been a defining period for Fiinu, during which we made significant progress on our core strategic priorities. Most notably, we advanced the implementation of the white-label arrangement announced in January, expanding the reach of our Plugin Overdraft® product and successfully raised capital to support the product development . These initiatives underline our commitment to delivering scalable, technology-led financial solutions to the market.

"Despite the challenges of operating with limited capital and human resources, our leadership team-supported unwaveringly by the Board remained firmly focused on our long-term strategy. By prioritising disciplined allocation of resources and aligning every decision with our growth objectives, we continued to make tangible progress across key initiatives. This resilience demonstrates our determination to build a scalable and sustainable business for the future.

"Looking ahead, my overriding objective-aligned with my proposed long-term incentive arrangements-is to deliver a step-change in shareholder value by increasing our share price to 110 pence and market capitalisation to £440 million over the next 36 months. While ambitious, this target reflects my confidence in the strategic path we have set and our ability to execute the initiatives required to unlock meaningful value creation for our shareholders."
