Chairmans Statement
I have pleasure in presenting the financial statements of Fragrant Prosperity
Holdings Limited (the "Company" or "FPP") for the financial year ended 31
March 2025.
The Board continued to review a number of potential acquisition opportunities
across the sector but none of which met the necessary criteria for selection
as at the end of the year. It is expected that with the potential improvement
in the market conditions for raising capital and undertaking reverse takeovers
in the UK along with the changes to the UK listing regime recently announced
by the FCA that the Company will have improved prospects for identifying a
potential target. The last 3 years have been difficult across the public
capital markets globally, but specifically the UK and with limited cash
available it has been challenging to consummate potential deals. The Company
has therefore undertaken a recapitalisation of the balance sheet and a capital
raise post period end to improve the position for undertaking any potential
acquisitions.
During the financial year, the Company reported a net loss of £182,934 (2024:
£111,877) which represents ongoing administrative expenses and due diligence
costs regarding the identification of potential targets. As at 31 March 2025,
the Company had cash in bank balance of £67,879 (2024: £109,688).
The Board will provide further updates to shareholders in due course.

The notes to the financial statements form an integral part of these financial
statements.
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Company was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 28 January 2016
as an exempted company with limited liability.
The Company's Ordinary shares are currently admitted to a standard listing on
the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange.
On the 12 December 2017 the company changed its name from Vale International
Group Ltd to Fragrant Prosperity Holdings Ltd.
The Company's nature of operations is to act as a special purpose acquisition
company.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Board has reviewed the accounting policies set out below and considers
them to be the most appropriate to the Company's business activities.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the United Kingdom and
IFRIC interpretations applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The
financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention
as modified for financial assets carried at fair value.
The financial information of the Company is presented in British Pound
Sterling ("£") which is the Company's functional and presentational currency.
Standards and interpretations issued but not yet applied
At the date of authorisation of this financial information, the Directors have
reviewed the Standards in issue by the International Accounting Standards
Board ("IASB") and IFRIC, which are effective for accounting periods beginning
on or after the stated effective date. In their view, none of these standards
would have a material impact on the financial reporting of the Company.
Going concern
Until such time as the Company makes a significant investment it will meet its
day to day working capital requirements from its existing cash reserves and by
raising new equity finance.
In the year ended 31 March 2025 the Company recorded a loss after tax of
£182,934 (2024: £111,877 ) and a net cash outflow from operating activities
of £41,809 (2024: £85,707).
The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts covering a period of at least
12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements which assume
that no significant investment activity is undertaken unless sufficient
funding is in place.
The Company had cash of £67,879 at 31 March 2025 which the directors believe
is insufficient to undertake the required steps to make an investment and
fulfil its investment mandate and at the year end the Company was therefore
seeking to raise additional capital to proceed with its strategy.
Post year end the Company agreed the refinancing of certain debts on the
balance sheet as well raising £1,000,000 of new equity to provide working
capital in order for the Company strategy to be executed.
During the year the Company incurred predominantly ongoing administrative
costs, as well as some minor expenditure on legal and other associated costs
related to the identification of potential targets.
As the company has no revenue it is reliant on its existing cash resources to
fund any ongoing expenditure. Should a potential target be identified and
significant expenses incurred in the course of undertaking due diligence then
the Company might be in a position that its cash resources are depleted and
any potential deal may or may not complete. Should any potential deal fail and
significant expenses be incurred then the Company might be required to raise
additional capital to continue its strategy.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers any cash on short-term deposits and other short term
investments to be cash equivalents.
Trade Creditors
Trade creditors (being obligations to pay for goods or services acquired in
the ordinary course of business are recognised when the company becomes party
to the contractual provision of the suppliers invoice and are initially
recorded at fair value, which is generally the invoiced amount.
Accruals
Accruals represent liabilities for goods or services received by the Company
during the reporting period for which payment has not yet been made or
invoiced by the supplier. Accruals are recognised when the Company has a
present obligation as a result of a past event and are measured at the best
estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation.
Prepayments
Prepayments represent payments made by the Company for goods and services that
have not yet been received or consumed at the end of the reporting period.
Prepayments are recognised when the company makes a payment in advance for
goods or services and are initially recognised at the amount paid in advance
representing the fair value of consideration given.
Taxation
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the period.
Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement
because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible
in other periods and it further excludes items that are never taxable or
deductible. The Company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax
rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred income tax is provided for using the liability method on temporary
timing differences at the reporting date between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised in full for all temporary
differences. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible
temporary differences carried forward of unused tax credits and unused tax
losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be
available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry-forward
of unused tax credits and unused losses can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is assessed at each
reporting 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
deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax
assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent
that is probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred income
tax asset to be recovered.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the statement of
financial position when the company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently
measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income
(OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial
assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual
cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them.
The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were
acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at
initial recognition and re-evaluates this classification at every reporting
date.
As at the reporting date, the Group did not have any financial assets
subsequently measured at fair value.
Operating segments
The directors are of the opinion that the business of the Company comprises a
single activity, that of an investment company. Consequently, all activities
relate to this segment.
Convertible Loan Notes
Initial Recognition
Upon issuance, convertible loan notes are recognised in accordance with IAS 32
and IFRS 9. The instrument is split into its liability and equity components
based on the following approach:
· Liability Component: The fair value of the liability component is
determined first by discounting the contractual stream of future cash flows
(interest and principal) at the market interest rate for a similar debt
instrument without the conversion option. This represents the present value of
the issuer's obligation.
· Equity Component: The equity component, representing the conversion
option, is calculated as the residual amount, i.e., the difference between the
total proceeds received from the issuance of the convertible loan note and the
fair value of the liability component.
Subsequent Measurement
Liability Component: The liability component is subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is
recognised in profit or loss based on the effective interest rate, which
reflects the true economic cost of the borrowing.
Equity Component: The equity component is not remeasured after initial
recognition, as it represents the residual value of the conversion option
classified as equity.
Derecognition and Conversion
At Maturity (No Conversion): If the conversion option is not exercised, the
liability component is derecognised upon repayment of the principal and
accrued interest. Any related transaction costs or fees are recognized in
profit or loss.
Upon Conversion: If the conversion option is exercised, the carrying amount of
the liability component and the equity component are derecognised. The
issuance of equity instruments is recognised in equity (e.g., share capital
and share premium) at the carrying amount of the derecognised components, with
no gain or loss recognised on conversion.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS as adopted for
use by the United Kingdom requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates or judgements. The directors do not consider there to be any key
estimation uncertainty. In respect of critical judgements, the only key
judgement is the adoption of going concern on the basis for preparing the
financial statements, details of which are set out in note 2.
Share based payments
The Company operates equity-settled, share-based compensation plans, under
which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity
instruments (options) of the Company. The fair value of employee services
received in exchange for the grant of share options are recognised as an
expense. The total expense to be apportioned over the vesting period is
determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted:
· including any market performance conditions;
· excluding the impact of any service and
non-market performance vesting conditions; and
· including the impact of any non-vesting
conditions.
Non-market performance and service conditions are included in assumptions
about the number of options that are expected to vest. The total expense is
recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the
specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each reporting
period the Company revises its estimate of the number of options that are
expected to vest.
It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in
profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.
When options are exercised, the Company issues new shares. The proceeds
received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to
share capital (nominal value) and share premium.
The fair value of goods or services received in exchange for shares is
recognised as an expense.
3. INCOME TAX EXPENSE
The Company is regarded as resident for the tax purposes in British Virgin
Islands.
No tax is applicable to the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025 and 2024.
Consequently no deferred tax is recognised as all timing differences are
permanent.
4. LOSS BEFORE TAXATION
The loss before income tax is stated after charging:

5. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable
to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares in issue during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by
adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. There are currently no
dilutive potential ordinary shares.

The average numbers of person employed by the Company (including directors)

8. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT POLICY
The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for
shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal
capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. The capital structure of the
Company consists of equity attributable to equity holders of the Company,
comprising issued share capital and reserves.
9. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company uses a limited number of financial instruments, comprising cash
and other payables, which arise directly from operations. The Company does not
trade in financial instruments.
Financial risk factors
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: currency
risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. The
Company's overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of
financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the
Company's financial performance.
a) Currency risk
The Company does not operate internationally and its exposure to foreign
exchange risk is limited to the transactions and balances that are denominated
in currencies other than Pounds Sterling.
b) Credit risk
The Company does not have any major concentrations of credit risk related to
any individual customer or counterparty. Credit risk arises from cash and cash
equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions. The Group has
taken necessary steps and precautions in minimising the credit risk by lodging
cash and cash equivalents only with reputable licensed banks.
c) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the
Company ensures it has adequate resource to discharge all its liabilities. The
directors have considered the liquidity risk as part of their going concern
assessment. (See note 2). At the date of approval of the financial statements
there was a material uncertainty in relation to liquidity risk.
d) Cash flow interest rate risk
The Company has no significant interest-bearing liabilities and assets. The
Company monitors the interest rate on its interest bearing assets closely to
ensure favourable rates are secured.
Fair values
Management assessed that the fair values of cash and short-term deposits,
trade receivables, trade payables, bank overdrafts and other current
liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term
maturities of these instruments.
10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's principal financial instruments comprise cash and cash
equivalents and other payable. The Company's accounting policies and method
adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis on which income and
expenses are recognised in respect of each class of financial assets,
financial liability and equity instrument are set out in Note 2. The Company
do not use financial instruments for speculative purposes.
The principal financial instruments used by the Company, from which financial
instrument risk arises, are as follows:

13. DESCRIPTION OF RESERVES
Retained Earnings comprises accumulated gains and losses incurred to date.
Convertible Loan Note reserve comprises the fair value of the equity component

14. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
The company has issued options to a third party with a fixed strike price
which are valued using the Black Scholes methodology as well as options that
have a nil strike price and an anti dilute clause which results in a variable
number of shares being issued. The number of options outstanding at the
period ends as well as the inputs to the Black Scholes valuation is set out
below:

movement in share prices in similar companies and was not based on historic
volatility.

The nil strike priced options were not valued using the Black Scholes model,
instead the fair value of the options issued was determined as the value of
shares to be issued at any given share price under the terms of the agreement.
Due to the inclusion of an antidilution clause the number of shares is to be
amended in order to grant the holder a predetermined monetary value of shares,
initially calculated at 2pence per share. The 2,500,000 at the year end
therefore had a fair value of £50,000.
* The remaining nil strike price options lapsed after the period end without
being exercised.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
