Mirriad Advertising plc
("Mirriad" or the "Company")
Unaudited interim results
Mirriad, the leading in-content advertising and virtual product placement
company, today announces unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30
June 2025. ("H1 2025" or the "Period").
H1 2025 highlights:
Strategic developments & KPIs:
· Cost-base reduction: Implemented significant monthly cost-base
reductions from the c. £650k it stood at prior to placing announced in May,
down to a current rate of c. £220k - an improvement on the quoted £250k we
targeted at the time of the placing
· JV Partner performance: Multiple campaigns already secured under the
restructured US operations with JV Partner, Rembrand, with significantly
stronger revenue anticipated in Q4 aligned to historically seen seasonal
demand
· Regional growth:
o Successfully launched in Austria with a first booking in a popular
long-running reality TV franchise. The campaign has already gone into
production and is currently scheduled to complete delivery around December
o New agreement in the Middle East
o Currently delivering our largest-ever campaign in the UK and have secured
multiple bookings going into H2 2025 in Germany. The company is also exploring
and negotiating further expansion opportunities now. As a result of this,
coupled with improving market conditions, we are beginning to see an uptake in
campaigns booked, and re-emerging visibility of greater demand in our
core-focus regions, we expect a significant improvement on revenues in the six
months ended 31 December 2025 ("H2 2025") and beyond
· Product development: Progress commencing on the piloting of
white-labelling our platform to supply partners, with discussions underway
with core European partners. This is expected to enable greater scalability
and transaction efficiency and lead to increased sales
Financial headlines
· Revenue for H1 2025 of £199k (Six months ended 30 June 2024 ("H1
2024"): £390k)
o £106k from continued operations in Europe (H1 2024: £156k); and
o £93k from discontinued operations in USA (H1 2024: ££234k)
· Cash at the end of June 2025 of £2.4m (H1 2024: £8.3m)
· H1 2025 operating loss for the Period of £2.7m on continued
operations (H1 2024: loss of £4.2m). This occurred as a result of exceptional
restructuring costs associated with the necessary restructure and consultation
period.
· Loss per share from continuing operations of 0.07p, improved from H1
2024 (H1 2024: loss 0.7p)
· Fundraise completed in June 2025 to raise gross proceeds of £1.7m
Louis Wakefield, CEO of Mirriad, said "Revenues for H1 2025 were very
disappointing, however we believe trading was severely impacted by the
internal turmoil caused by the necessary restructuring and distraction of the
fundraise, which was largely compounded by external market conditions outside
of our control.
"Following these difficulties in H1 2025 and the many difficult but necessary
steps we were required to take, we believe that the Company is now better set
up to capitalise on the global VPP opportunity and move towards our goal of
positive cash-flow generation.
"Consequently, we believe we are much better positioned now looking forward."
James Black, Chair of Mirriad, said "In this six-month period Mirriad has had
to undergo a radical change. The board continues to believe our product is
best in class and there is a significant market for VPP. The rate of adoption
has been much too slow however, and this has been a big disappointment to
Mirriad, our shareholders, and many partners around the world.
"I am pleased we appointed Louis, our new CEO, who has led the restructuring.
Our US sales are now executed by our US JV Partner, Rembrand, while Louis
concentrates on Europe and the ROW. This restructuring caused significant
disruption in H1 2025 but we are much better positioned to get to cashflow
breakeven and profitability on our revised cost base.
"We are now working more closely with our broadcasting partners to generate
revenue and as we enter Q4 (our most important quarter) with a stronger focus
and a much lower cost base we look to deliver a stronger H2 2025. I would like
to thank our shareholders for their continuing support in our recent placing."

Chief Executive Officer's Statement
Following my first address to shareholders in the Annual Report, I am pleased
to once again update you through our Interim Report.
The first half of the year proved challenging, reflecting the internal
turbulence of the events that occurred in H1 2025 and the material impact this
had on our ability to generate business. During the period we were in advanced
discussions in relation to a possible offer for the entire issued and to be
issued ordinary share capital of the Company. When these discussions ceased on
30 April 2025, the directors were forced to take urgent action; leading to our
fundraise announced in May. One key contingency of our fundraise was a full
restructure of the Company. We have achieved this goal and now have a much
leaner cost-base, whilst retaining our full operational capacity and
capability for our partners. A key part of the reorganisation was to
restructure our operations in the US via a newly formed joint venture with our
partner Rembrand. This exchanged all liabilities in the US for a future
revenue share and will enable us to trade profitably in the US going forward
for the first time.
The Company's ability to drive impactful revenues in H1 2025 was significantly
affected by this internal turmoil. This was compounded further by the external
uncertainty driven by US political headwinds, that affected not only our US
business but also eventually impacted European budgets.
Despite this, we enter the second half of the year with renewed optimism,
supported by close consultation with our core partners, (and their
expectations), and encouraging early signs of recovery.
In Europe, we are currently delivering our largest-ever campaign to-date and
have secured multiple bookings in Germany with both recurring and new clients.
Further discussions are underway with leading advertisers across the region
for H2 2025, supported by new promotional packages developed closely with our
partners. Beyond Germany, we have successfully expanded into the Middle East,
and now Austria too with our first campaign now booked in the region. We're
also exploring additional opportunities in emerging markets through
light-touch sales models designed to generate recurring revenue in previously
untapped regions.
In the US, Rembrand has secured multiple campaign bookings, and we are in
regular consultation with them to align the US offering. Inline with previous
years, the sales team expect to capture the typically strong sales uplift we
see in Q4, particularly around holiday-themed content. The now-profitable
setup of this new structure provides a solid foundation for our sustained
growth.
We have been developing a white-label solution, in order to generate a SaaS
model, through enabling broadcasters to productize our approvals platform and
re-brand as an in-house product. We are actively demonstrating and in
discussions to pilot this solution with several key European partners, and
believe when fully adopted it will address historic challenges by:
streamlining approvals challenges, automating transactions, enabling greater
scalability, and reducing the reliance on high-touch sales processes.
Taken together, a stronger European pipeline, encouraging U.S. momentum,
progress in new markets, seasonality of demand, and a leaner cost base, we
believe we are well positioned for a much-improved second half. These factors
underpin our confidence of being best set up to achieve our goal of reaching
cash flow positivity.
Financial review
Interim results
Group revenue for the first half of the year was £106k from continued
operations (Europe) and £93k from discontinued operations (USA) (H1 2024:
£156k from continued operations (Europe) and £234k from discontinued
operations (USA)), representing a 49% year-on-year decline (on a combined
basis of continued and discontinued operations). The reduction reflects weaker
U.S. trading conditions in Q1 due to political uncertainty, which in turn
began to effect trading condition in Europe prior to the beginning of H2 2025.
We believe this will be offset by the greater trading potential we're
beginning to see going into H2 2025.
Operating loss for the period was £2.7m (H1 2024: £4.2m), largely driven by
exceptional one-offs and costs associated with the restructuring. This
reduction reflects continued cost discipline and efficiency improvements.
We successfully reduced our monthly operating expenses from circa £650k in
April 2025 to approximately £220k currently following the restructuring
undertaken around May. Savings were realised primarily in staff costs and
overheads, with further potential for technology and licensing cost-savings in
H2 2025 as the leaner structure beds in further over time and as we introduce
new efficiencies into our operational work-flows through leveraging the latest
technological innovations.
As part of the joint venture arrangements, the Company sold 20 per cent. of
Mirriad Inc. to Rembrand in June 2025 for total consideration of £200k.
Whilst we continue to own the majority of Mirriad Inc., under the terms of the
agreement we ceded operational control on a day-to-day level to Rembrand in
exchange for them absorbing all liabilities of the entity and Mirriad being
provided with a revenue share of sales. As the Company no longer holds
significant operating or board control in Mirriad Inc., it is presented as a
financial asset at fair value at the period end and the results of Mirriad
Inc. are no longer consolidated within the Group accounts. This presentation
resulted in a fair value gain of £57k during the period.
Looking ahead to the second half, the Group expects revenue momentum in Europe
to increase, with multiple campaigns secured for H2 2025. In the US, the joint
venture is expected to deliver a strong contribution as the new sales teams
settle in and drive the market forward, and as the seasonal demand picks-up in
Q4. Together with the reduced cost base, these factors provide the Board with
confidence that we will be able to increase revenues and build on the partner
momentum we have driven-to-date.

1 Basis of preparation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six-month
reporting period ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with
International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
The interim report does not include all of the notes of the type normally
included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read
in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2024,
which has been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting
Standards and with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to
companies reporting under those standards.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months
ended 30 June 2025 and for the six months ended 30 June 2024 do not constitute
statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act and are
unaudited. The financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2025
presents financial information for the consolidated Group, including the
financial results of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries Mirriad
Advertising Private Limited, Mirriad Software Science and Technology
(Shanghai) Co. Ltd (liquidated in 2023), and Mirriad Limited (dormant).
On 1 June 2025, the Company disposed of its controlling interest in Mirriad
Inc. Accordingly, the results of Mirriad Inc. for the period up to disposal
have been presented as discontinued operations.
The Board approved these interim financial statements on 26 September 2025.
1.1 Going concern
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the going
concern basis, notwithstanding the Group having made a loss for the period of
£3 million (30 June 2024: £4.8 million). The going concern basis assumes
that the Group and Company will have sufficient funds available to continue to
trade for the foreseeable future and not less than 12 months from the end of
the financial period being reported.
The Group's cash balance was £2.4 million at the period end and the Group
remains debt free with no external borrowing.
The Company announced a Placing and Retail Offer that raised approximately
£1.3m after fees on 14 May 2025. The Company said at that time that the
Directors anticipated that the proceeds of this fundraise could provide
sufficient funding to achieve their target of reaching trade cash flow
break-even, based on base case forecasts which assume both revenue growth and
cost savings being achieved over the next 18 months. After making enquiries
and producing cash flow forecasts for the period up to 31 December 2025, the
Directors have reasonable expectations, as at the date of approving the
financial statements, that the Company and the Group will have adequate
resources to fund the activities of the Company and the Group for the next 12
months from the date of the financial period being reported.
2 Accounting Policies
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual report
and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024, as described in those
financial statements other than standards, amendments and interpretations
which became effective after 1 January 2025 and were adopted by the Group.
These have had no significant impact on the Group's loss for the period or
equity.
There are no items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash
flows that are unusual because of their nature, size or incidence which are
required to be disclosed under IAS 34 para 16A(c).
There are no events after the interim reporting period which are required to
be reported under IAS 34 para 16A(h).
Except for the fair value of the retained interest in Mirriad Inc. as
disclosed in Note 6 there are no financial instruments being measured at fair
value which require disclosure under IAS 34 para 16A(j).
3 Group financial risk factors
The condensed interim financial statements do not contain all financial risk
management information and disclosures required in annual financial
statements; the information should be read in conjunction with the financial
information, as at 31 December 2024, summarised in the 2024 annual report and
accounts. There have been no significant changes in any risk management
policies since 31 December 2024.
4 Critical accounting estimates, judgements and errors
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of
accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income
and expense. Actual results might differ from these estimates. IAS34(16A)(d)
In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and
the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied
to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
There are no changes in estimates of amounts reported in prior financial
years.
5 Segment information
Management mainly considers the business from a geographic perspective since
the same services are effectively being sold in every Group entity. Therefore,
regions considered for segmental reporting are where the Company and
subsidiaries are based, namely the UK and India. The revenue is classified by
where the sales were booked not by the geographic location of the customer.
In the current and prior reporting period there is no income outside of the
primary business activity.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal
reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating
decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the steering
committee that makes strategic decisions. The steering committee is made up of
the Board of Directors. There are no sales between segments. The revenue from
external parties reported to the strategic steering committee is measured in a
manner consistent with that in the income statement.
The Parent company is domiciled in the United Kingdom. The amount of revenue
from external customers by location of the Group billing entity is shown in
the tables below.

6 Discontinued operations
On 1 June 2025, the Group disposed of its controlling interest in Mirriad Inc.
for total consideration of £200k. In accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, the results of Mirriad Inc.
have been presented as a discontinued operation to the date of disposal and
are no longer consolidated within the Group.
The disposal resulted in a fair value gain of £57k which has been recognised
within discontinued operations for the period. The Group has retained an
investment in Mirriad Inc., which has been classified as a financial asset in
accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and measured at fair value of
£150k as at 30 June 2025.
