Interim Management Report
Vox Valor Capital Limited ("Vox Valor" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that its interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June
2024 have been published and are available on its website at
www.voxvalor.com/investors (http://www.voxvalor.com/investors) .
We are very pleased to report a strong increase in revenues and the Group
achieving a modest operating profit. For the remainder of the current
financial year, we are looking forward to growing Vox Valor both organically
and through potential acquisitions.
About the Company
The principal activity of the Vox Valor Group is mobile app marketing. The
Group focuses on mobile game or app (content) businesses' performance and has
been providing services for the promotion of mobile apps and games for several
years.
Summary of Trading Results
The main management focus in the reporting period was on improving the
financial performance of the Group.
For the financial period ended 30 June 2024, Vox Valor reported revenues of
USD 5.63 million (2023: USD 1.8 million).
Revenue achieved by Mobio Singapore was USD 3.3 million (2023: 31k), with
revenue achieved by Mobio Global UK of USD 2.14 million (2023: USD 1.77
million)
Operating expenses were USD 5.5 million for the 6 months period ended 30 June
2024 (2023: USD 1.79).
Gross margin for the first half of 2024 was USD 759k (13%) compared to 639k
(36%) in 2023.
Vox Valor reports an operating profit of USD 126k (2023: USD 13k).
Total comprehensive result for the six months ended 30 June 2024 was a loss of
USD 327k (2023: profit of USD 179k). This has been in large part due to
increased interest costs.
Corporate Update
Mobio is making steady progress in gaining new clients for Mobio Global
Limited (UK), Mobio Singapore Pte Ltd (Singapore) and Mobio Inc (US) and these
efforts will continue through the remainder of the current financial year.
The Company is continuing its search for suitable complimentary mobile game or
app (content) businesses as well as complimentary advertising tech and
marketing tech businesses, in order to execute on its stated strategy of
creating a synergistic mobile content and ad tech / marketing powerhouse.
Further announcements on potential M&A transactions will be made as and
when term sheets or legal binding agreements have been entered into.
Outlook
Looking forward to the current global situation, the continuing elevated
interest rates and inflation rates tend to have an adverse impact on the price
of services provided.
The Board remains cautiously optimistic and continues to evaluate
opportunities for generating value for shareholders.
Going Concern
The day to day working capital requirements and investment objectives are met
by existing cash resources. At 30 June 2024 the Group had cash balances of USD
70k (144K USD as of 31 December 2023). The Group's forecasts and projections,
taking into account reasonably possible changes in the level of overhead
costs, show that the company should be able to operate within its available
cash resources. The Directors have, at the time of approving the interim
financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate
resources to continue in existence for the foreseeable future. They therefore
continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the
financial statements.
Interim Financial Information
The half-yearly financial report has not been audited or reviewed by auditors
pursuant to the Financial Reporting Council guidance on Review of Interim
Financial Information.
Listing Category
On 29 July 2024, the Listing Rules were replaced by the UK Listing Rules
("UKLR") under which the existing Standard Listing category was replaced by
the Equity Shares (transition) category under Chapter 22 of the UKLR.
Consequently, with effect from that date the Company is admitted to Equity
Shares (transition) category of the Official List under Chapter 22 of the UKLR
and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed
securities.
Post-Period Events
There are no significant events occurred after reporting date.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
Taking considered risk is the essence of all business and investment activity,
in relation to risk the Company's main objective is to minimise the chance of
a material adverse outcome arising from causes which could reasonably have
been foreseen, this includes both 'upside' (opportunity) and 'downside'
(threat) risks.
The principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year
remain unchanged from those detailed in the Company's annual report for the
year ended 31 December 2023.

Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Management has a
reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the Management
continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the
financial statements.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance
with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards ("IFRS") and
interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
("IASB") and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting
Standards Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC").
The presentational currency of the Group is US dollars (USD).
The notes are an integral part of the financial statements.
Reporting period
These financial statements represent the financial reporting period of the
Group for the 6-month period ended 30 June 2024.
General
An asset is disclosed in the statement of financial position when it is
probable that the expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset
will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured. A
liability is disclosed in the statement of financial position when it is
expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying
economic benefits and the amount of the obligations can be measured with
sufficient reliability.
If a transaction results in transfer of future economic benefits and/or when
all risks associated with assets or liabilities have been transferred to a
third party, the asset or liability is no longer included in the statement of
financial position. Assets and liabilities are not included in the statement
of financial position if economic benefits are not probable or cannot be
measured with sufficient reliability.
The income and expenses are accounted for during the period to which they
relate. Revenue is recognized when control over service is transferred to a
customer.
The Management is required to form an opinion and make estimates and
assumptions for assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. The actual result
may differ from these estimates. The estimates and the underlying assumptions
are constantly assessed. Revisions are recognised during a corresponding
revision period as well as any future periods affected by the revision. The
nature of these estimates and judgements, including related assumptions, is
disclosed in the notes to corresponding items in the financial statement.
Basis of consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements incorporate the financial information of
Vox Capital Ltd and all its subsidiary undertakings. Subsidiary undertakings
include entities over which the Group has effective control. The Company
controls a group when it is exposed to, or has right to, variable returns from
its involvement with the Group and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the Group. In assessing control, the Group takes into
consideration potential voting rights.

Principles for foreign currency translation
The financial statements of the Group are presented in US dollars, which is
the Group's presentation currency.
Receivables, liabilities, and obligations denominated in any currency other
than USD are translated at the exchange rates prevailing as of the reporting
date.
Transactions in any currency other than USD during the financial year are
recognized in the financial statements at the average annual exchange rate.
The exchange differences resulting from the translation as of the reporting
date, taking into account possible hedging transactions, are recorded in the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
The nominal value of the share capital and other share components of the
subsidiaries are denominated in Singapore dollars (SGD) and in the pounds of
sterling (GBP) and translated into USD using historical exchange rate; the
exchange differences resulting from this translation are recorded in the
Exchange differences on translating foreign operations in the statement of
financial position.
Cross-rates GBP/USD, USD/SGD and average rate GBP/USD are taken from
https://www.exchangerates.org.uk/ (https://www.exchangerates.org.uk/) and
closing rate GBP/USD is taken from the site Currency Exchange Rates -

Closing rate 1.2649 1.2681
Average rate 1.2651 1.2337
Revenue
The Group's revenue comprises primary income from the provision of mobile
marketing services in 2024 and 2023. Revenue is recognized when the related
services are delivered based on the specific terms of the contract. The Group
uses a number of different information technology ("IT") systems to track
certain actions as specified in customer contracts. The calculation of charges
for mobile marketing services is carried out automatically by the technology
platform based on pre-defined key parameters, including unit price and volume.
These IT systems are complex and process large volumes of data.
Records of mobile marketing services charges are generated in an aggregated
amount for each category and are manually entered into the accounting system
on a monthly basis.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured based on specific contract terms and excludes amounts
collected on behalf of any third parties. Revenue is recognized when control
over service is transferred to a customer.
The following is a description of principal activities from which the Group
generates its revenue.
Cost of sales (operating expenses)
Cost of sales represents the direct expenses that are attributable to the
services delivered. They consist primarily of payments to platforms and
publishers under the terms of the revenue agreements. The cost of sales can
include commissions where applicable.
Financial instruments
The Group classifies financial instruments, or their component parts, on
initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial liability, or an equity
instrument in accordance with the terms of the contractual arrangement.
Financial instruments are recognised on trade date when the Group becomes a
party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial instruments
are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of a financial
instrument not at fair value through profit and loss, transaction costs that
are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial
instrument. Financial instruments are derecognised on the trade date when the
Group is no longer a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Trade and other receivables and trade and other payables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at transaction price less
attributable transaction costs. Trade and other payables are recognised
initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent
to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, less any expected credit losses in the case of trade
receivables. If the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, for
example if payment is deferred beyond normal business terms, then it is
measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate
of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial commitments
Financial commitments that are not held for trading purpose are carried at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Other purchased intangibles assessment
The Group annually reviews the recoverability of all long-term assets,
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset might not be recoverable. The Group determines whether there has
been an impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash
flows to the related asset's carrying value. If an asset is considered
impaired, the asset is written down to fair value which is either determined
based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of
the asset.
Intangible fixed assets
Concessions, Intellectual Property and Licenses are stated at cost less
accumulated amortisation.
Amortisation is recognized in the income statements on a straight-line over
the estimated useful life as follows:
· Trademarks - 10 years.
· Licenses - validity period.
· Programs - 5 years.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at their historical cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is recognized in the income statement in a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each item of tangible
fixed assets. The minimum cost to recognize an objects as a fixed asset is
3,000 USD. The annual depreciation rates applied are:
· Technical and office equipment, computers - 3 years.
Leases
All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease
liability except for:
· Leases of low value assets; and
· Leases with a duration of twelve months or less.
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of contractual payments
due to the lessor over the lease term, with the discount rate determined by
reference to the rate inherent in the lease unless (as is typically the case)
this is not readily determinable, in which case the Group's incremental
borrowing rate placed at the official site of the Bank of England.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease
liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less
and low-value assets, including IT equipment. The Group would recognise the
lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
Receivables
Upon initial recognition the receivables are included at fair value and then
valued at amortised cost. The fair value and amortised cost equal the face
value. Any provision for doubtful accounts deemed necessary is deducted. These
provisions are determined by individual assessment of the receivables. All
receivables are due within one year.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank
overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the
Group's cash management are included as a component of cash and cash
equivalents for the purpose only on the cash flow statement.
The cash flow statement from operating activities is reported using the
indirect method.
Provisions
These are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be
reliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditure expected to be
required to settle the obligation, using a pre-tax rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the
obligation. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is
recognised as a finance cost.
Deferred taxes
A deferred tax liability / asset is recognized for any differences in
commercial and fiscal valuation of the Group's assets and liabilities.
Taxation
Current tax is the tax currently payable based on the taxable profit for the
year.
The Group recognises current tax assets and liabilities of entities in
different jurisdictions separately as there is no legal right of offset.
Deferred tax is provided in full on temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases, except when, at the
initial recognition of the asset or liability, there is no effect on
accounting or taxable profit or loss under a business combination. Deferred
tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been substantially
enacted by the statement of financial position date, and that are expected to
apply when the temporary difference reverses.
Tax losses available to be carried forward, and other tax credits to the
Group, are recognised as deferred tax assets, to the extent that it is
probable that there will be future taxable profits against which the temporary
differences can be utilised. Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are
recognised as a component of the tax expense in the statement of comprehensive
income, except where they relate to items that are charged or credited
directly to equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also charged or
credited directly to equity.
Financial income and expenses
Financing income includes forex exchange and financial expenses include bank
fee.

Valor Capital Limited. The financial effect recognized in the financial
statements amounted to a USD 3,881 expense / cost.
10. Earnings per share
Basic (losses)/earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss)
attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the year.
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. As at 31 December 2022 the Group has outstanding
Warrants issued to the NED Directors (Non-executive directors) and Stonedale
Management and Investments Limited Ltd (Stonedale), which when exercised will
convert into Ordinary Shares. Total number of Warrants in issue is 45,833,333.

earnings per share
Loss per share (cent) (0,01) (0,01)
During a period where the Group or Company makes a loss, accounting standards
require that 'dilutive' shares for the Group be excluded in the earnings per
share calculation, because they will reduce the reported loss per share;
consequently, all per-share measures in the current period are based on the
weighted number of ordinary shares in issue.

22. Financial risk management
The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks through its use of
financial instruments which result from its operating activities. All the
Group's financial instruments are classified trade and other receivables. The
Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for
speculative purposes. The most significant financial risks to which the Group
is exposed are described below:
Credit risk
Generally, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the
carrying amount of the financial assets recognised at the reporting date, as
summarised below:
30 June 2024 31 December 2023
Trade receivables 2,173,086 1,126,412
Prepayments 219,040 170,105
Total 2,392,126 1,296,517
Credit risk is the risk of financial risk to the Group if a counter party to a
financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligation. The nature of
the Group's debtor balances, the time taken for payment by clients and the
associated credit risk are dependent on the type of engagement.
The Group's trade and other receivables are actively monitored. The ageing
profit of trade receivables is monitored regularly by Directors. Any debtors
over 30 days are reviewed by Directors every month and explanations sought for
any balances that have not been recovered.
Unbilled revenue is recognised by the Group only when all conditions for
revenue recognition have been met in line with the Group's accounting policy.
The Directors are of the opinion that there is no material credit risk at the
Group level.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the situation where the Group may encounter difficulty in
meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Group
seeks to manage financial risks to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to
meet any foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitably.
The tables below break down the Group's financial liabilities into relevant
maturity groups based on their contractual maturities.
The amounts disclosed in the tables below are the contractual undiscounted
cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances,
because the impact of discounting is not significant.
Contractual maturities of financial liabilities as of 30 June 2024:
Less than 6 months 6-12 months Between 1 and 2 years Between 2 and 5 years Carrying amount
Trade and other payables 1 655 962 - - - 1 655 962
Corporation tax payable 18 062 - - - 18 062
Lease liabilities 10,295 10,897 20,835 - 42,027
Total 1,684,319 10,897 20,835 - 1,716,051
Contractual maturities of financial liabilities as of 31 December 2023:
Less than 6 months 6-12 months Between 1 and 2 years Between 2 and 5 years Carrying amount
Trade and other payables 618,358 - - - 618,358
Corporation tax payable 18,062 - - - 18,062
Lease liabilities 10,428 10,583 32,619 - 53,630
Total 646,848 10,583 32,619 - 690,050
Interest rate risk
The Group is not exposed to material interest rate risk as its liabilities are
either non-interest bearing or subject to fixed interest rates.
Foreign currency risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk
arising from various currency exposures. The Group monitors exchange rate
movements closely and ensures adequate funds are maintained in appropriate
currencies to meet known liabilities.
Reputational risks
The Management of the Group believes that at present there are no facts that
could have a significant negative impact on the decrease in the number of its
customers due to a negative perception of the quality of services provided,
adherence to the terms of rendering services, as well as the participation of
the Group in any price agreement. Accordingly, reputational risks are assessed
by the Group as insignificant.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of all financial assets and liabilities approximates their
carrying value.
Other risks
The industry risk is currently assessed as low, and the volume of advertising
on the Internet is growing. However, it should be taken into consideration
that the industry is affected by changing legislation on the regulation of the
advertising services provision and compliance with information security of
data. Also, the Group business depends on the availability, performance and
reliability of internet, mobile and other infrastructures (speed, data
capacity and security) that are not under the Group control.
The Group makes every effort to comply with the requirements of the
legislation and to maintenance of a reliability for providing advertising
internet services.
