CONDUITY CAPITAL PLC
("CCAP" or "the Company")
Unaudited Interim results for the six months ended 30 June
2021
Conduity Capital Plc (AIM: CCAP), an AIM Rule 15 cash shell,
announces its unaudited interim results for the six months to 30
June 2021.
Chairman's Statement
As previously announced, during the 2020 financial year, the
Company took the decision to sell its Singaporean trading
subsidiary. Following the completion of the sale, the Company
became an AIM Rule 15 cash shell and as such is required to make an
acquisition or acquisitions which constitute a reverse takeover
under AIM Rule 14 (including seeking re-admission as an investing
company (as defined under the AIM Rules)) on or before the date
falling six months from completion of the disposal or be
re-admitted to trading on AIM as an investing company under the AIM
Rules. The Company has been actively pursuing acquisition
opportunities, however, as no acquisition had been made, trading in
the Company's shares on AIM was suspended on 6 April 2021.
On 4 August 2021 the Company announced that it had entered into
non-binding heads of agreement to work towards the possible
acquisition of Smarttech247 by the Company for a total
consideration of GBP33.5 million, to be satisfied by the issue of
new ordinary shares in the Company. ("Proposed Acquisition").
Smarttech247 is an established global artificial intelligence
("AI") based cybersecurity business specialising in automated
managed detection and response. Should such a transaction proceed
on the currently envisaged terms, it would be classified as a
reverse takeover in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies
("RTO"). The Proposed Acquisition remains subject to contract and
satisfactory completion of the necessary due diligence and, at this
stage, there is no guarantee that the Proposed Acquisition will
complete.
Admission to trading on AIM will be cancelled six months from
the date of suspension should the reason for the suspension not
have been rectified and, currently, the Company's shares remain
suspended. Given the status of the Company's progress with the
Proposed Acquisition and the time needed to complete the necessary
due diligence and relevant documentation to effect a RTO, even if
it decided to proceed, it will not be able to complete this process
before Cancellation. Consequently, the Directors expect to seek to
complete the Proposed Acquisition after Cancellation and then
re-apply to join AIM. Cancellation is expected to occur on 7
October 2021.
For the period under review the Company incurred a loss of
GBP157,000 (2020: Loss of GBP53,000). The loss for this period
reflects the costs of administration, including the costs of
pursuing various acquisition opportunities. As at 30 June 2021, the
Company had net assets of GBP1,000,000, comprising principally of
cash (31 December 2020: GBP622,000).
We will keep shareholders updated as matters progress.

company incorporated in England and Wales with company number
8000104 and is quoted on the AIM market of the London Stock
Exchange Plc, although trading in its ordinary shares is currently
suspended.
2. Basis of Preparation
This interim report, which incorporates the financial

cost convention, on a going concern basis and in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by
the European Union, using accounting policies which are consistent
with those set out in the financial statements for the year ended

-------------- ----------- -------------- -----------
Change of presentation currency
The Directors have elected to change the Company's presentation
currency from Singapore dollars ("$SGD") to Pound Sterling
("GBPGBP") effective from 1 January 2020. The Company has changed
its accounting policy such that the presentation currency was
aligned with the functional currency (GBP). In the prior years, the
Company presented its financial statements in $SGD, as the main
trading operations were based in Singapore and $SGD was the
reporting currency. Following the disposal of the subsidiary in
October 2020, the Company has used GBP in the financial statements
in the year ended 31 December 2020. The change in presentation
currency is a voluntary change which is accounted for
retrospectively. All other accounting policies are consistent with
those adopted in the annual financial report for the year ended 31
December 2020.
The financial report has been restated to Pound Sterling using
the procedures outlined below:
1. Income Statement and Statement of Cash Flows have been
translated into Pound Sterling using average foreign currency rates
prevailing for the relevant period.
2. Assets and liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position
have been translated into Pound Sterling at the closing foreign
currency rates on the relevant balance sheet dates.
3. The equity section of the Statement of Financial Position,
including foreign currency translation reserve, retained earnings,
share capital and the other reserves, have been translated into
Pound Sterling using historical rates.
4. Earnings per share have also been restated to GBP to reflect
the change in presentation currency.
Exchange differences arising from the translation are recognized
in the translation reserve.
