The Directors present their report, together with the Group
Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report, for the year ended 31
December 2023. The comparative period is the year ended 31 December
2022.
Review of the Year
Throughout the period the digital asset markets continued
their strong recovery from the 2022 lows, with a corresponding
markedly positive impact on the Company’s cryptocurrency treasury
position. The prices of BTC and ETH began the period at US$16,612
and US$1,202, respectively and by the end 2023, BTC had risen
156.7% to US$42,650 while ETH had increased by 89.8% to
US$2,281.00. The strong performance of both cryptocurrencies has
continued beyond the year end with BTC reaching a new all time high
of $75,830 on 14 March 2024 and is currently trading at US$67,800
representing a percentage increase year-to-date of approximately
54.7%.
Having navigated the challenges from the previous down cycle
and the lows of December 2022, we emerged stronger in 2023,
fulfilling our commitment to resilience and growth. Throughout the
year, we strategically laid the building blocks for future success,
focusing on Web3 and exponential converging technology
opportunities, particularly in the realm of artificial intelligence
(AI).
Web3, which represents the next generation of internet
technologies incorporating decentralised platforms and blockchain,
is a cornerstone of our strategy. Our emphasis on AI and other
converging technologies positions us to leverage innovative
solutions and drive substantial growth. This proactive approach has
prepared us well for the strong sustained market recovery we are
now experiencing in 2024, where we
now find ourselves in a robust and advantageous
position.
On 14 March 2023 – Coinsilium announced that the Company had
entered into Heads of Terms (“HoT”) with Tokenomi, a blockchain and
Web3 advisory services firm (“Tokenomi”) established in 2017, and
with its owner and managing director, Alexis Nicosia, to acquire
the advisory service business and certain intellectual property
assets of Tokenomi.
On 19 May 2023 the Company reported that the acquisition of
the Tokenomi business had completed and that Tokenomi’s owner and
managing director, Alexis Nicosia, had joined Coinsilium’s Advisory
Team. Consideration for the acquisition of the Tokenomi business
was GBP116,500, of which GBP19,000 was paid in cash and GBP97,500
was paid through the issue of 3.25m Shares in the Company in the
year at a price of 3.0 pence per share, subject to a 6-month
lock-in agreement, with a follow on further 6-month orderly market
arrangement.
Projected revenue estimates were provided at the time of the
announcement with a further update provided at the time of the
completion announcement dated 19 May 2023, covering
the subsequent 12 to 24 month period, contingent on those
advisory clients successfully completing their TGEs (Token
Generating Events) within this period. Revenues
generated from advisory services are in most cases contingent on
the success of the client’s TGE. In the context of the pace of
recovery from the market lows as of the end of 2022, and prevailing
market sentiment, several advisory clients have since elected to
push back their TGE’s until more optimal conditions prevail. It is
therefore likely that we will see many of these projects
relaunching their TGE processes from towards the end of this year
or over the course of 2025 subject to conducive market
conditions.
On 21 April 2023, Coinsilium announced that it had raised
GBP258,150 gross of expenses via a
company share subscription and
broker placing through Peterhouse Capital and SI Capital, of
17,209,999 new ordinary shares of no-par value at a price of 1.5
pence per share from existing and new shareholders and directors of
the Company. Following the issue of
the 17,209,999 Ordinary Shares, the Company has 191,958,234
Ordinary Shares in issue, which also represents the total number of
voting rights in the Company. Each Placing Share had an attaching
warrant to subscribe for a further new ordinary share at an
exercise price of 3p ("Warrants"), valid for two years from the
date of admission of the Placing Shares, being 27 April
2023.
The Directors' participation in the Subscription was as

On 15 June 2023, the Company announced that Greengage had
successfully raised £1m, the first tranche of a proposed £5m
fundraise, at a £30m valuation and that Coinsilium participated in
Greengage’s latest funding round with an investment of GBP25,000.
At the same time, we also reported the conversion of the principal
and interest of the GBP200,000 convertible loan notes made to
Greengage in September 2021 by Coinsilium, via its wholly owned
Gibraltar registered subsidiary Seedcoin Limited. Coinsilium’s
total shareholdings in Greengage increased to 27,133 and based on
the fundraising values the Company’s stake at £652,537.
On 4 September 2023 – Coinsilium announced a Master
Collaboration Agreement with global lifestyle fashion brand company
Blvck Limited ("Blvck Paris") to establish a framework for
engagement on future projects including Web3 projects. The
agreement provides a structured framework for both parties to work
together and move forward on a range of strategic Web3 initiatives
currently under review.
On 14 September 2023 Coinsilium
announced that Seedcoin, its 100% owned Gibraltar subsidiary, had
signed a Convertible Loan Agreement and Option Agreement with Silta
as a cornerstone investor in their funding round. The Convertible
Loan Agreement provides a loan principal amount of USD50,000 at a
pre-money valuation of USD5m. The loan is granted for a period of
six months, converting at maturity into 22,306 new common
shares of Silta at a price of USD 2.2416 per share. As at
the time of this report we note that there has been a delay in the
issuance of the new shares and it is expected that the new shares
to be issued to Coinsilium within the coming weeks.
The Option Agreement for up to USD500,000 provides
the rights to subscribe to up to 163,575 new shares in Silta at a
pre-money valuation of USD7.5m valid for 12 months. Subject to Loan
conversion and Options exercised in full, Seedcoin will hold a
total of 185,881 shares or 6.7% of the total share capital of
Silta. Post period on 12 February 2024 the company announced that
Silta has notified Coinsilium that it has recently received an
investment from a top 10 global infrastructure development bank as
part of a strategic partnership agreement to build a climate
financing marketplace, powered by AI, for bankability and
sustainability assessments. This strategic partnership aims to help
support governments, infrastructure developers, and financial
institutions to reach their goals of deploying US$800B
towards Climate Financing by 2030.
On 2 October 2023 we announced the launch of the new
Coinsilium website marking the culmination of the Company’s work
towards repositioning itself and its commitment to capitalising on
emerging opportunities in Web3 technology, Artificial Intelligence
(AI), particularly at the intersection of AI and Blockchain, whilst
providing investors with a valuable resource for gaining a better
understanding of Coinsilium’s Web3 investments and advisory
services work. Coinsilium also announced that it has embarked
on a number
of global awareness and promotional
initiatives, including the Company’s engagement as main sponsor for
the “When Shift Happens” podcast run by renowned Web3 entrepreneur
and podcast host Kevin Follonier. “When Shift Happens” has a large
global following and features regular interviews with famous names
and rising stars in the Web3/Crypto space.
On 1st December 2023 portfolio company Indorse announced the
unveiling of the ‘Byzant’ Web3 ecosystem. Byzant is the product of
an active collaboration between a syndicate of major digital
advertising and blockchain industry partners, including Coinsilium
and portfolio company Indorse, working together to deploy a
decentralised Social Network for creative professionals and a suite
of Web3 applications and tools, developed by Indorse. These
applications and tools will provide solutions that address many of
the functionality and User Experience (UX) challenges currently
hindering mass Web3 adoption and are needed to achieve parity with
Web2 functionalities. Indorse is
the principal technology partner for Byzant with Coinsilium
providing strategic advisory services. Coinsilium’s participation
and economic interests in Byzant will be represented through a
material stake in new project tokens at the founding member
level.
Post period, on 15 March 2024, the
Company announced that A-ADS had joined the Byzant Collaboration as the latest
new syndicate member. A-ADS is one of the largest and longest
established Crypto/Bitcoin advertising networks, currently serving
191 million impressions per day, and is working with Byzant to
develop Adbazaar, a smart contract-powered advertising solution
within the Byzant suite of applications specifically built for
Web3.
On 28 November 2023, Coinsilium announced that it had signed
Heads of Terms (“HoT”) with investment portfolio company,
Singapore-registered Indorse Pte. Ltd, a blockchain development
company, to acquire a further 2,773 shares representing an
additional stake of 14.76% in the post-transaction share capital of
Indorse. Coinsilium currently holds 1,433 shares or 10.156% of the
current share capital of Indorse. Post period on 29 January 2024
the Company announced that Coinsilium and Indorse had
agreed to not proceed with the negotiations at this time, given the
complexity of the proposed share acquisition transaction and the
time required to complete the necessary due diligence work and that
both Coinsilium and Indorse will focus on their collaboration
towards the successful development and launch of the Byzant
Ecosystem and its applications, as referred to in the Company’s
announcement on 1 December 2023.
The Company ended the period with the value of tradable
crypto tokens of £466,341 and rights to future crypto tokens of

New Advisory and Investment
Agreements Post Year End
On 20 February 2024 Coinsilium
announced it had signed an agreement with global trade exchange
platform LC Lite (“LC Lite”) for the provision of strategic advisory services
in respect of the forthcoming token launch for its decentralised trade finance platform, now
rebranded as Nexade Finance. LC Lite has
been recently acquired by Incomlend, a regulated global invoice finance marketplace
for SMEs with licences to operate in Singapore and in Hong Kong.
Incomlend was founded in 2016 to address the US$2.5 trillion
global trade finance gap and was named
one of the Top 15 Fastest Growing Companies in Singapore in
2022.
LC Lite aims to bring Web3 decentralised technology to
Incomlend, with improved marketplace liquidity, multi-currency
solutions for cross-border export financing and a broad usage of
stablecoins. LC Lite will also be well positioned to capitalise on
emerging business opportunities from within the fast-growing
digital asset market.
Partnerships
IOV Labs Asia JV
On 28 February 2023 the Company provided an update on the
status of IOV Labs Asia Pte. Ltd. (“IOV Labs Asia”), the Company’s
Singapore-based 50/50 joint venture company (“JVC”) with IOV Labs
Ltd (“IOV Labs”) The Company advised that it had submitted its
formal proposal for resolution of the JVA to IOV Labs on 1 December
2022.
On 18 August 2023 the Company provided a further update
stating that both parties agreed to proceed to a mediation process
under the auspices of the Singapore Mediation Centre (‘SMC’),
Singapore’s leading provider of alternative dispute resolution
services. The mediation was conducted on Thursday 17 August 2023.
However, despite Coinsilium’s best efforts, unfortunately no
mutually acceptable resolution was reached. In view of the fact
that the mediation process has now run its course, both IOV Labs
and Coinsilium have agreed in principle to wind up the JVC. As at
the time of this report, both parties are currently working on
expediting the winding up process for the JVC which is now entering
its final stages.
Post Year End Funding
Update
On 8 March 2024 the Group announced the placing of 18.9m new

proceeds for application against strategic investing activities and
general working capital requirements.
At the same time, the Group announced the allotment of 3.356m
new ordinary shares on the same terms in settlement of various
services received by the Group. The Group further announced the
granting of 22.256m of warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares at
3.75 pence per share, being one warrant attached to each
subscription and service share allotted, exercisable for a period
of 3 years from grant.

Director
No. Shares Subscription Value
Eddy Travia
800,000
GBP 20,000
Malcolm Palle

The Financing underpins the Company’s working capital
position and importantly, enables an acceleration of certain
operational and investing activities at a time when AI and Web3 are
rapidly advancing and Coinsilium wishes to remain at the forefront
of various Web3 technology initiatives.
Financial Review
Total comprehensive income, including fair value gains and
losses on financial assets and digital assets, reported a loss for
the period of £660,684 compared to a loss of £2,056,974 in the
previous year. This result is largely driven by an increase in the
fair value of digital asset tokens of £284,069 (compared with a
decrease in the prior year of
£1,289,582).
As at 31 December 2023, cash and cash equivalents amounted to
£283,757 (2022: £667,816).
Outlook
The Company ended the period with the value of tradable
crypto tokens of £466,341 and rights to future crypto tokens of
£451,678 . Cash and cash equivalents amounted to £283,757.
Following the year end, the Company undertook a strategic financing
with director participation raising approx. £470,000 in new cash
funding in addition to seeing a substantial increase in the value
of its crypto currency tokens (predominantly BTC and ETH), further
bolstering the Company’s strategic funding reserves.
As an investment and advisory business focused on Web3 and
blockchain technologies, Coinsilium’s growth trajectory has
historically been linked to the cycles in the crypto markets. In
this sense, 2024 is already poised to be a pivotal year for the
Company, with significant momentum across many macroeconomic
fronts, heralding the arrival of a new bull market cycle for the
crypto markets.
The successful launch of Bitcoin ETFs
in the US at the beginning of the year has been a game-changer,
boosting investor confidence and driving substantial capital
inflows into the sector. Additionally, the anticipated imminent
launch of the Ethereum ETF further bolsters market optimism. These
developments are underpinned by impressive statistics, with Bitcoin
ETF trading volumes exceeding expectations and signalling strong
institutional interest as over half of all US Hedge Funds
now own BTC ETFs in some
form.
Bitcoin ETFs have now reached a significant milestone, with
over 1 million BTC now held in custody by these investment
vehicles. According to data shared by Michael Saylor, the executive
chairman of MicroStrategy, on X (formerly Twitter), more than 30
Bitcoin ETFs collectively own 1,002,343 BTC as of May 24,
2024.
One of the most pivotal events this
year was the Bitcoin Halving in Spring 2024. This event, which
reduces the supply of new Bitcoin entering the market, establishes
a new scarcity model. Historically, the Bitcoin Halving has
catalysed bull phases in the digital assets value cycle, setting
the stage for substantial long term price increases and market
expansion.
However in the short/medium term we
can expect the crypto markets to remain volatile. One of the
reasons for this
being the immediate impact the halving has had on
miners who
will be experiencing a significant reduction in their mined block
rewards, effectively halving their potential revenues. This has led
many miners to reassess the profitability of their operations, with
a substantial number forced to shut down due to decreased financial
viability. To navigate this period, many of the miners will be
increasingly selling Bitcoin to cover operational costs and sustain
their activities. This pattern is consistent with previous halving
cycles, which have similarly led to short-term market adjustments
as part of a natural market cleansing process. Despite the
immediate challenges, this phase is not viewed as a long-term
detriment to the Bitcoin network but rather a cyclical adjustment
that helps maintain market balance and scarcity.
For companies like Coinsilium operating in the Web3 space,
the medium to long term market set up is exceptionally
positive. Web3 represents the next
generation of internet technologies, incorporating decentralised
platforms and blockchain. The increased investor confidence and
capital inflows we are now starting to see as a direct result of
these macroeconomic developments, provides the resources needed in
the sector for innovation and growth.
Significantly, Coinsilium has built its investment and
advisory operations in a manner such that it is now uniquely
well-positioned to leverage these opportunities, driving forward
our strategic initiatives in Web3 and AI, and setting the
foundation for short and medium term value generation and
critically, long-term growth.
Advisory
Services
Coinsilium’s advisory services capability was first launched
in 2017 at the start of the first wave of Initial Coins Offerings
(“ICOs”). During the prevailing period the Company acted as advisor
to over 10 ICOs including major projects at the time such as ICON,
Fantom and HDAC. The projects we worked with at the time raised an
aggregate of over US$500m with Coinsilium recording £1.68m in
revenues for the year to 31 December 2018.
Given the cyclical nature of the industry, there is a clear
window of opportunity now approaching for Coinsilium to align its
efforts with the prevailing cycle and for our Advisory Services
Division to once again outperform. In this respect, our confidence
is borne out by the resurgence of interest we are now seeing from
projects that are once again looking to advisors such as Coinsilium
with a proven track record of delivering results for its clients,
through successful advisory work, and supporting them through their
Token Generation Event (“TGE”) journey.
With the Tokenomi Web3 advisory business now fully integrated
within Coinsilium’s Advisory Services Division, and with improving
market conditions, the advisory team is now poised to expand the
scope of its global advisory services offering. Going forward, our
enhanced offering will go beyond our original strategic advisory
model to include a much in-demand technical services capability and
potential funding solutions offering as well. Given the growing
demand for such services, we anticipate this “one-stop shop”
approach to be well received in the market and highly value
accretive for the Company.
In this respect we are now actively evaluating opportunities
in Southeast Asia, focusing on a new potential technological and
commercial collaboration and partnership. Negotiations have now
reached an advanced stage, and we look forward to updating the
market on significant developments in due course.
Byzant
Collaboration
Development work for the various
elements of the Byzant Web3 Ecosystem is progressing well and we
are most encouraged to see that the most advanced applications,
namely the Bastion account abstraction wallet and Adbazaar the smart-contract powered
advertising network, are already attracting significant interest
from industry parties and discussions with several potential
integration partners are ongoing.
One cannot overstate the role that
advertising plays as a revenue driver in developing the Web2 social
media industry. Advertising revenues have fuelled the whole
industry since its early days - as an example, in 2023
Facebook ad revenue reached $131.948 billion - and whilst we see Web3 as the foundation to move
social networks beyond the exclusive reliance on advertising driven
revenue models, we also believe that ad revenues can become a
significant engine for growth in the Web3 space.
2024 has so far seen no let-up in our business developments,
with an array of significant announcements and milestones on the
horizon from our growing roster of investments and advisory
clients. The board remains resolute in its commitment to unlocking
and delivering the inherent and expanding value of our enterprise
and investments. With the growing interest from clients and
improving market conditions, we look to the rest of the year with
renewed confidence and optimism.
Finally, the Board would like to thank our valued
shareholders, partners and team members for their continued
support, and we look forward to continuing to provide the market
with regular and what we believe will be exciting progress updates
for the remainder of the period and beyond.

COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Investee Companies Update
Indorse
20 March 2023 - New Multiverse NFT standard submitted by
members of the Indorse tech team becomes the ERC-5606 NFT standard
with the potential to benefit the entire Web3 Ecosystem.
Due to shifting market dynamics Indorse has elected to no
longer focus exclusively on Metaverse technology and Metalinq but
rather to apply their efforts on the broader scope of their role as
developers within the Byzant Web3 Collaboration.
On 29 August 2023 Consilium provided details regarding the
unveiling of new Web3 software product ‘Bastion’, an open source,
modular wallet and Software Development Kit (“SDK”) from portfolio
company Indorse Pte. Ltd. (“Indorse”). Wallets are the first points
of interaction between users and Web3 applications and recent
developments such as Ethereum’s ‘account abstraction’ allow
newcomers to use decentralised applications in a much easier way.
Through the Bastion wallet, users will be able to log in via their
Web2 social media accounts and start using their wallet before
uploading digital assets without having to worry about the
transaction fees (or ‘gas’). Account abstraction also allows simple
wallet recovery, a reassuring feature for all newcomers to Web3.
These functionalities remove most of the friction inherent in
current Web3 applications and make the wallet experience much more
user friendly.
Post Period, on 15 March 2024 Coinsilium announced the
inclusion of A-ADS as the latest member of the Byzant
Collaboration. A-ADS is one of the largest and longest established
Crypto/Bitcoin advertising networks, currently serving 191 million
impressions per day, and is working with Byzant to develop
Adbazaar, a smart contract-powered advertising solution within the
Byzant suite of applications specifically built for
Web3. Advertising is the backbone
of Web2 social media monetisation and an underdeveloped source of
revenues in the Web3 social media space, and Coinsilium is
therefore confident that Web3 advertising can represent a
significant opportunity for early entrants in the Web3 space such
as Adbazaar, especially with its backing from crypto ad network
veterans such as A-ADS.
Web3 advertising further enables the integration of new
tools, such as on-chain analytics and programmatic advertising
solutions, which can offer granular targeting for advertisers based
on the assets held in the ad viewers’ digital wallet. Adbazaar is
integrating Singapore-based Linkko technology to leverage its
on-chain analytics feature, expanding its capability beyond the
basic, ‘one-size-fits-all' banner ad-serving model currently used
within Web2 applications.

staking technologies.
On 5 April 2023, SSV Network announced the release of JATO
(Jat Assisted Take Off) as the last testnet version before Mainnet
release.
On 12 April 2023, Alon Muroch, CEO of Coindash, tweeted in
reference to the significance of the Ethereum ‘Shappella’ upgrade:
“Today’s Shappella fork marks a huge milestone for ethereum and
@ssv_network. It marks a full circle from beacon chain genesis in
Dec 2020 to withdrawals activation today. For SSV, a necessary
milestone for mainnet rollout. Huge things are about to happen
after 2 years of work.”
Throughout 2023, Alon Muroch (CEO of Coindash) has announced
several technical enhancements of SSV Network and numerous
partnerships with major Ethereum staking platforms.
As of 26 April 2024, there are 600,000 ETH staked on SSV
Network (about $1.88Bn worth at the same date) and a network of 391

Terai, has been assessing new directions for the company.
Post-period, StartupToken has pivoted towards developing a Web3
Real World Asset ("RWA") tokenization model, focusing on Bali real
estate. The company also changed
its name in the year to Arcadian Youth Ptd Ltd.
The project will begin with a real estate data-focused
application, proven successful in mature markets such as France.
Bali's real estate sector is highly active with a large volume of
transactions, generating extensive data and attracting real estate
agents as well as personal and professional investors. The
blockchain-based application is in its early stages of development,
with a Web3 technical team based in Indonesia. Further updates will
be provided on the application's technical progress and commercial
rollout.

Greengage Global Holding
Ltd
On 15 June 2023 Greengage announced that it had raised over
£1m at a £30m valuation intended to be the first tranche in a £5m
fundraising program.
At the same time, Greengage triggered the conversion of
noteholders’ convertible loan notes into ordinary A shares. With
the conversion of the principal and interest of its GBP200,000 Loan
Notes, Coinsilium receives a total of 11,094 Greengage A Shares:
10,395 A Shares from the conversion of the principal and 699 A
Shares from the conversion of the interest accrued over the period
(GBP16,821.92) at 5% per annum. In accordance with the terms of the
loan notes instrument of 30 June 2021, the conversion price for the
principal amount was £19.24 per share, calculated on the basis of a
20% discount on the full price of £24.05 per share which was the
price applied to the conversion of accrued interest. Based on the
11,094 A Shares resulting from this conversion, Coinsilium received
7,510 Warrants to subscribe to Greengage shares at an exercise
price of GBP28.87 per share, at a valuation of GBP36m and valid for
two years.
Furthermore, we decided to show continuing support to the
project by participating in the equity subscription round,
purchasing 1,039 A shares for £25,000 and receiving 860 warrants to
subscribe for new A shares at an exercise price of £28.87,
exercisable for 2 years.
Post Period
Updates
In February 2024 Greengage notified Coinsilium that it had
signed an agreement with a new regulated partner to bring forward
the launch of its USD currency accounts (as well as several other
currencies including CHF, SEK and CAD) along with FX and SWIFT
payments for its clients. There still remain very few "crypto
friendly" payment providers offering USD accounts. Greengage
management expect that this new agreement will both help to attract
new clients for their services as well as strengthen their existing
client relationships.
Greengage also advised that they continue to maintain a
healthy pipeline for new account opening submissions and that they
are currently exploring collaborations to progress a new line of
SME digital debt offering with potential partners (digitally
wrapping debt offerings cut down on costs considerably). The first
pilot for SME commercial paper is currently underway.
Carrying Value in GBP as at 31 December 2023:
£652,537 (2022: £501,530)
Silta Finance
Investment Terms announced 14 September 2023 whereby
Coinsilium reported that it entered into a Convertible Loan
Agreement for US$50,000 at a pre-money valuation of US$5 million.
The loan was granted for a period of six months, converting at
maturity into 22,306 new common shares at USD 2.2416 per share. As
at the time of this report we note that there has been a delay in
the issuance of the new shares and it is expected that the new
shares will be issued to Coinsilium within the coming
weeks.
Coinsilium also signed an Option Agreement for up to
US$500,000 for the right to subscribe to up to 163,575 new shares
in Silta at a pre-money valuation of US$7.5 million valid for 12
months from 14 September 2023. Subject to loan conversion and
Options exercised in full, Coinsilium will hold a total of 6.7% of
the common shares in Silta.
Post period on 12 February 2024 Silta notified Coinsilium
that it has recently received an investment from a top 10 global
infrastructure development bank as part of a strategic partnership
agreement to build a climate financing marketplace, powered by AI,
for bankability and sustainability assessments. This strategic
partnership aims to help support governments, infrastructure
developers, and financial institutions to reach their goals of
deploying US$800B towards Climate Financing by 2030.
The Silta AI toolkit and marketplace aim to help sustainable
infrastructure projects accelerate through due diligence and
financial close, thereby reaching their financing goals in
timescales that would otherwise be impossible to achieve via
established methods and procedures.
Silta’s strategic partnership with the Bank aims to create
the benchmark for climate financing due diligence, thereby
unlocking an US$800B opportunity within Asian markets, opening the
door to a US$1.3T global market for projects driving the transition
from fossil fuels to renewables.
Silta Finance objectives are to provide the
following:
-
AI-driven platform specialising in
fast, effective bankability and sustainability assessments for
sustainable infrastructure projects (renewables, water,
waste).
-
Showcase approved sustainable
projects on the Silta Impact marketplace with Due Diligence reports
and sustainability ratings.
-
Invite financiers (banks, private
equity, pension funds) to evaluate and take part in investment
opportunities.
-
Offer bundling of projects under
US$100 million as Asset Backed Securities (ABS), to diversify risk
and appeal to major investors.

2 Summary of significant
accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation
of these consolidated Financial Statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied unless otherwise
stated.
2.1 Basis
of preparation of Financial Statements
The Group and Company Financial Statements have been prepared
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as
adopted by the European Union
(“IFRS”).
The Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical
cost basis, except for the measurement to fair value of certain
financial assets and financial instruments as described in the
accounting policies below.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It
also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process
of applying the Group’s Accounting Policies. The areas involving a
higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where
assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated
Financial Statements are disclosed in Note 4.
On 25 September 2014, Coinsilium Group Limited was
incorporated to act as the holding company for the Group. On
incorporation, 1 share was issued at £Nil par value.

LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
2.3 Basis
of Consolidation
The Group Financial Statements consolidate the financial
statements of Coinsilium Group Limited and the financial statements
of all of its subsidiary undertakings made up to 31 December
2023.
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has
control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to,
or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the
subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its
control over the entity. Where an
entity does not have returns, the Group’s power over the investee
is assessed as to whether control is held. Subsidiaries are fully
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the
Group. They are deconsolidated from
the date that control ceases.
Associates are entities over which the Group exercises
significant influence but does not exercise
control. Examples of Associates are
Joint Venture undertakings in which the Group has less than 50% of
the shares in issue but exercises significant influence by virtue
of holding in excess of a 20% interest in the company or by other
means, such as holding the right to appoint directors to the board
of the Company. Where the Group
holds an interest in an associate, this interest is accounted for
under equity accounting, whereby the initial investment is
recognised at cost, with the Group’s post acquisition share of the
profit or loss of the associate being recognised going forward in
the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Inter-company transactions, balances, and income and expenses
on transactions between Group companies are
eliminated. Profits and losses
resulting from intercompany transactions that are recognised in
assets are also eliminated.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the
Group.
Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less provision
for impairment.
2.4 Going
Concern
As described in the Results and Dividends section of this
Directors’ Report, the Group has reported an operating loss for the
year.
In considering the Group’s ability to continue in operation
for the foreseeable future, the Directors have considered the
forecast operating cash-flows up to the end of 30 June 2025, along
with the expectations of additional cash investments into digital
token projects which remain entirely in the Company’s
control.
As at the reporting date, the Company had £284k in cash
reserves and £466k in readily convertible digital asset
tokens. Furthermore, the Company
successfully raised £556k (before expenses) following the reporting
period through a private placement of new ordinary
shares.
As the Directors have continued to maintain a high level of
control over operating expenditures throughout the period, which it
feels remains appropriate given the
current size of the business, operating cashflows to 30 June 2025,
along with expectations of additional digital asset token
investments, are projected to be substantially met from existing
cash resources (including post period end cash raised via the
private placement) without the need for significant reliance on
realisation of readily convertible digital asset tokens in the
Company portfolio, which remains available for any additional
investment deemed advantageous over this period, or any further
additional funding activity.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
As a consequence, the Directors have a reasonable expectation
that the Group and Company have adequate resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable
future. Thus, they continue to
adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual
financial statements.
2.5 Business Combinations
The acquisition of subsidiaries in a business combination is
accounted for using the acquisition
method. The cost of the acquisition
is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of
exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and
equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of
the acquired, plus any costs directly attributable to the business
combination. The acquiree’s
identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that
meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3 are recognised at
their fair value at the acquisition date.
2.6 Foreign Currencies
-
Functional and presentation
currency
The
functional currency of the Group and Company is UK Pound Sterling
(£) and all values are rounded to the nearest
Pound.
This is on the basis that the Group is
based in the United Kingdom, its overheads are generally incurred
in sterling, its funds are generally held mainly in sterling bank
accounts, and its investors have invested in sterling-based
instruments. The Group financial statements are presented in UK
Pound Sterling, which is the Group’s presentational
currency.
-
Transactions and
balances
Transactions
in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at
the date of each transaction. Foreign currency monetary assets and
liabilities are retranslated using the exchange rates at the
reporting date. Gains and losses arising from changes in exchange
rates after the date of the transaction are recognised in profit or
loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in
terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at
the exchange rate at the date of the original
transaction.
2.7 Intangible
Assets
-
Brands and Trademarks
Brand and trademark intangible assets have been recorded at
cost, being their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition.
They are amortised over their estimated useful economic
lives.
-
Business acquisitions
Business acquisitions, such as the acquisition of a book of
advisory clients from a third party, that do not qualify as a
business combination under IFRS 3 give rise to the recognition of a
goodwill intangible asset. The
asset is recognised at cost and subject to annual impairment
reviews, with any impairment recognised in profit and loss for the
period. Once the asset gives rise
to identifiable revenues, the cost (less impairment to date) of the
asset is amortised over the period of the anticipated revenue
streams, pro rata with the realisation of revenue as a proportion
of total anticipated revenue to arise from the asset.
2.8 Property,
Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment
losses. Depreciation is provided on
all property, plant and equipment to write off the cost less
estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful
economic life on a straight-line basis at the following annual
rates:
Office equipment - 33.33% straight line over the life of the
asset
Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss
is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less
costs to sell and value in use.

LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
2.9 Financial
Assets
From 1 January 2018 the Group and Company classifies its
financial assets in the following measurement
categories:
-
Those to be measured subsequently
at fair value through profit or loss; and
-
Those to be measured at amortised
cost.
The classification depends on the business model for managing
the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
Financial assets are classified as at amortised cost only if both
of the following criteria are met:
-
The asset is held within a business
model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows;
and
-
The contractual terms give rise to
cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest.
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured
using the effective interest rate (EIR) method and are subject to
impairment. The Group’s and Company’s financial assets at amortised
cost include trade and other receivables and cash and cash
equivalents. A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a
financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is
primarily derecognised when:
-
The rights to receive cash flows
from the asset have expired; or
-
The Group and
Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the
asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows
in full without material delay to a third party under a
‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group and Company
has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the
asset, or (b) the Group and Company has neither transferred nor
retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but
has transferred control of the asset.
The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses
(ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through
profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the
contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all
the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an
approximation of the original EIR. The expected cash flows will
include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit
enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.
For trade receivables (not subject to provisional pricing)
and other receivables due in less than 12 months, the Group applies
the simplified approach in calculating ECLs, as permitted by IFRS
9. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but
instead, recognises a loss allowance based on the financial asset’s
lifetime ECL at each reporting date.
The Group and Company classifies the following financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss:
-
Debt instruments that do not
qualify for measurement at either amortised cost or fair value
through other comprehensive income; and
-
Equity investments for which no
election has been made to recognise fair value gains and losses
through other comprehensive income.
The Group and Company measures all equity investments at fair
value through profit or loss.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
2.9 Financial
Assets (continued)
Unquoted investments are valued by the Directors using
primary valuation techniques such as recent transactions, last
price or net asset value.
Where the fair value of an equity investment cannot be
estimated reliably, such as investments in unquoted companies, fair
value is based on cost less any impairment
charges. In this case impairment
charges are recognised in profit or loss. The Group assesses at
each period end date whether there is any objective evidence that a
financial asset or group of financial assets classified as
available-for-sale has been impaired.
Loans and Receivables
Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments that are not quoted in an active
market. After initial recognition,
these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where
the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash
equivalents, trade and other receivables fall into this category of
financial instruments. In relation to the Company, loans to and
from subsidiaries are also recognised within this category of
financial instruments.
Individually significant receivables are considered for
impairment when they are past due or when other objective evidence
is received that a specific counterparty will default on
payment.
Other financial assets are also classified within the loans
and receivables category.
Impairment of Financial
Assets
The Group and Company assesses at the end of each reporting
period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset
is impaired. For equity investments
classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged
decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is
evidence that the assets are impaired.
If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial
assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between
the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any
impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in
profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in profit or
loss. Impairment losses recognised
in profit or loss on equity instruments are not reversed through
profit or loss.
For loans and receivables, the amount of the loss is measured
as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the
present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the
asset’s effective interest rate.
Impairment testing of available-for sale financial assets is
described in Note 4.
2.10 Other
Current Assets
Crypto Tokens
Other current assets – Crypto Tokens are digital assets,
including tokens and cryptocurrency, which do not qualify for
recognition as cash and cash equivalents or financial assets, and
have an active market which provides pricing information on an
ongoing basis. Other current assets are initially measured at fair
value. Subsequently, digital assets are measured at fair value.
Gains and losses on measurement are recognised directly in profit
or loss. Where a digital asset is disposed of, the cumulative gain
or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is
reclassified to profit or loss. Digital assets are included in
current assets as management intends to dispose of them within 12
months of the end of the reporting period.
Rights to Future
Tokens
Projects and entities looking to launch a blockchain network
or product make use of agreements such as a ‘Simple Agreement for
Future Tokens’ (‘SAFT’) to attract early-stage investors and lock
in funding from interested parties. A SAFT is an early-stage
investment, where the investor provides upfront funding to a
project in exchange for an entitlement to receive a variable number
of digital assets or tokens in the future upon a successful launch
of the respective project. The number of digital assets or tokens
is usually detailed in the agreement but can vary,
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
impacting the determination of the accounting treatment.
Factors to consider include (but are not limited to) the
characteristics and features that the digital asset or tokens will
have, and the rights to which the future holders will be
entitled.
The Rights to Future Tokens in the Group consist of such
agreements for future tokens and are accounted for at cost less
impairment. When such rights
crystalise and result in the receipt of the tokens in question,
these assets will be recognsied as Crypto Tokens and measured at
fair value.
2.11 Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and current
and deposit balances at banks with maturities of three months or
less from inception.
2.12 Current and Deferred Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently
payable and deferred tax. The
liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates and laws
that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting
date.
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable
on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities in the group or parent company financial statements and
the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable
profit and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability
method.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all
taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are
recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits
will be available against which deductible temporary differences
can be recognised. Such assets and
liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises
from the initial recognition of goodwill or from the initial
recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets
and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable
profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates and laws that are
expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled, or
the asset is recognised based on tax laws and rates that have been
enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax is charged or credited
in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or
credited in other comprehensive income, in which case the deferred
tax is also dealt with in other comprehensive income.
2.13 Financial
liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group and
Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument and are initially measured at fair
value. They are de-recognised when
extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.
The Group’s and Company’s financial liabilities comprise
trade and other payables.
Trade and other payables are recognised initially at their
fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method, less settlement
payments.
2.14 Equity
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a
residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all
of its liabilities. Equity
instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds
received net of direct issue costs.
The share premium account represents premiums received on the
initial issuing of the share capital.
Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares
are deducted from share premium, net of any related income tax
benefits.
The share capital account represents the amount subscribed
for shares at nominal value. Since
the Company’s shares have a £Nil par value, no amounts are credited
to share capital and all amounts received on the initial issuing of
shares are credited to the share premium.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
Treasury shares represent the cost of the Company’s
investment in its own shares.
Other reserves represent the accumulated fair value
adjustments on other current assets that are not permanently
impaired.
Share option reserve represents the fair values of share
options and warrants granted.
Retained earnings/(deficit) include all results as disclosed
in the statement of comprehensive income.
2.15 Share
Based Payments
The Group makes payments to third parties through share-based
schemes, under which the entity receives services from third party
suppliers as consideration for equity instruments (shares, options
and warrants) of the Group. The
Group may also issue warrants to share subscribers as part of a
share placing. The fair value of
the equity-settled share based payments is recognised as an expense
in the income statement or charged to equity depending on the
nature of the service provided or instrument
issued.
The total amount to be expensed or charged in the case of
options is determined by reference to the fair value of options
granted:
-
Including any
market performance conditions;
-
Excluding the
impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions
(for example, profitability or sales growth targets, or remaining
an employee of the entity over a specified time period);
and
-
Including the
impact of any non-vesting conditions (for example, the requirement
for employees to save).
In the case of shares and warrants, the amount charged to the
share premium account is determined by reference to the fair value
of the services received.
2.16 Revenue
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration
received or receivable for consultancy and advisory services
provided, excluding VAT and relevant sales taxes.
Revenue is recognised for services when the Group has
satisfied its contractual performance obligation in respect of the
services. The amount recognised for
the services performed is the consideration that the Group is
entitled to for performing the services provided. Consultancy and
advisory services are recognised over time whereas success fees on
completion of a Token Generation Event are recognised at a point in
time.
The majority of contracts for services and success fees are
for a fixed number of tokens and cryptocurrency, which equates to
the fair value of services provided.
Revenue is recorded at the token or cryptocurrency rate as
quoted on the date the performance obligation is
fulfilled.
2.17 Leases
Payments associated with short-term leases and all leases of
low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an
expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a
lease term of 12 months or less.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
3. Financial
Risk Management
3.1 Financial
Risk Factors
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial
risks being market risk (including interest rate risk, and currency
risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk
management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial
markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the
Group’s financial performance.
Market
Risk
-
Foreign currency risks
At 31 December 2023, management maintained the majority of
the Group’s cash assets in sterling bank accounts to minimise
foreign currency risk. The Company
will continue to hold any significant cash assets in
sterling.
In respect of investments, management believes that the
foreign currency risk is a far lower risk than the market risk and
do not currently actively look to manage foreign currency risk
arising from investments.
The Directors will continue to assess the effect of movements
in exchange rates on the Group’s financial operations and initiate
suitable risk management measures where necessary.
-
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial
instrument or cash flows associated with the instrument will
fluctuate due to changes in market interest
rates. As the Group has no
borrowings, it is not exposed to interest rate risk on financial
liabilities. The Group’s interest
rate risk arises from its cash held on short-term deposit, and from
the provision of convertible loans, which are not
significant.
-
Price Risk
The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because
of investments held and classified in the Statement of Financial
Position as financial assets through profit or
loss. To manage its price risk
arising from investments in equity securities, the Group could
diversify its portfolio. However,
given the size of the Group’s operations, the costs of managing
exposure to securities price risk exceed any potential benefits. In
addition, the Group is exposed to high levels of price volatility
in cryptocurrency and tokens. The Group currently seeks to manage
price volatility risk by actively monitoring its portfolio of
digital assets. The Directors will revisit the appropriateness of
these policies should the Group’s operations change in size or
nature. The Group has no exposure
to commodity price risk.
Credit
Risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with
counterparty’s inability to fulfil its payment
obligations. The Group’s credit
risk is attributable to cash and cash equivalents and trade and
other receivables. The credit risk
on cash is limited because the Group invests its cash in deposits
with well-capitalised financial institutions with strong credit
ratings. The Group’s exposure to credit risk is reduced as it deals
with less new clients and more established clients.
Liquidity
Risk
The Group’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure
that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when
due. As at 31 December 2023 the
Group had unrestricted cash of £283,757 to settle trade and other
payables of £102,189. Most of these accounts payable have
contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to
normal trade terms.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
3.2 Fair
Value Estimation
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value
measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to
sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place
either:
·
In the principal market for the asset or
liability; or
·
In the absence of a principal market, in
the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be
accessible by the Group.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using
the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the
asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their
economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into
account a market participant's ability to generate economic
benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by
selling it to another market participant that would use the asset
in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in
the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to
measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable
inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured
or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the
fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a
whole:
·
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market
prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities
·
Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which
the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
·
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which
the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the
financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines
whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by
re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that
is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end
of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has
determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the
nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the
level of the fair value hierarchy, as explained above.
The following table presents the Group’s assets and
liabilities that are measured at fair value at 31 December 2023 and

Movements in financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss are disclosed in Note 9 to the Financial
Statements.
All financial assets are in unlisted securities, and many are
in companies which are pre-revenues.
Movements in other current assets for the year ended 31
December 2023 are disclosed in Note 14 to the Financial Statements.
A level 2 hierarchy has been attributed to tokens as the traded
exchanges are directly derived from the active market for Ether and
Bitcoin exchanges.
There were no transfers between levels during the
year.
The Group recognises the fair value of financial assets at
fair value through profit or loss at the cost of investment
unless:
-
There has been a specific change in
circumstances which, in the Group’s opinion, has permanently
impaired the value of the financial asset. The asset will be
written down to the impaired value;
-
There has been a significant change
in the performance of the investee compared with budgets, plans or
milestones;
-
There has been a change in
expectation that the investee’s technical product milestones will
be achieved or a change in the economic environment in which the
investee operates;
-
There has been an equity
transaction, subsequent to the Group’s investment, which
crystallises a valuation for the financial asset which is different
to the valuation at which the Group invested. The asset’s value
will be adjusted to reflect this revised valuation; or
-
An independently prepared valuation
report exists for the investee within close proximity to the
reporting date.
3.3 Capital
Risk Management
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard
the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can
continue to develop and support its interests in cryptocurrency and
blockchain technology products and services and provide returns for
shareholders and benefits for stakeholders.
The Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its
capital structure to ensure an optimal capital structure and equity
holder returns, taking into consideration the future capital
requirements of the Group and capital efficiency, prevailing and
projected profitability, projected operating cash flows, projected
capital expenditures and projected strategic investment
opportunities. Management regards total equity as capital and
reserves, for capital management purposes.
The Group sets the amount of capital in proportion to risk.
The Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it
in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk
characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or
adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the number of
dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders,
issue new shares or sell assets.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
3.2 Fair
Value Estimation (continued)
The Group considers its capital to include share capital and
share premium. Net cash comprises cash and cash equivalents only as
there is no debt held.
4. Critical
Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of the Group and Company Financial Statements
in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, at the date of the financial information and the
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Although these estimates
are based on management’s best knowledge of the amounts, events or
actions, actual results ultimately may differ from these
estimates.
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are
based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances.
Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions
include, but are not limited to:
-
Fair Value Measurement
On acquisition, investments are valued at cost as this is
deemed to be the fair value.
Subsequent to this, management uses valuation techniques and
other relevant information to determine the fair value of financial
instruments (where active market quotes are not available) and
non-financial assets. This involves developing estimates and
assumptions consistent with how market participants would price the
instrument. Management bases its assumptions on observable data as
far as possible, but this is not always available. In that case
management uses the best information available. Estimated fair
values may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an
arm’s length transaction at the reporting
date.
-
Share Based Payments
Estimating fair value for share based payment transactions
requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model,
which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant of
share options and warrants. This estimate also requires
determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model
including the expected life, volatility and dividend yield and
making assumptions about them.
Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting
policies include, but are not limited to:
(i) Assessment
of Control and Significant Influence
Where the proportion of equity held in an investment is near
or above 20%, the Directors consider carefully whether the Group
has significant influence over the entity. The Directors consider
the percentage of equity held, representation on the Board and the
extent to which they are actually involved with management of the
entity and their ability to change the percentage of equity held/
influence management in the future. Where management believes that
the Group exerts significant influence over an investment, the
investment will be considered an associate investment and equity
accounted in the Financial Statements.
In the case of many of the investments acquired from Seedcoin
Limited, Coinsilium Group Limited has agreed not to exercise its
rights as a shareholder to influence the operation of the
investees’ businesses for the first twelve months after it acquired
an interest in the investment.
These agreements override any potential rights to exert
significant influence or control these businesses, either as
shareholder or through the appointment of
Directors. Accordingly, the
Directors have concluded these investments should be classified as
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss as the Group
has agreed and is legally bound not to exert any significant
influence or control over these investments.
Following the lapse of the 12-month period over which the
Group is legally bound not to appoint a director to the Board, or
to influence strategic or operational policy over the investee, the
Group may henceforth be required to reclassify some or all of these
investments as either associates or subsidiaries as may be the case
considering the situation at the time.
(ii) Impairment
of Financial Assets
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss have a
carrying value of £2,162,782 at 31 December 2023.
COINSILIUM GROUP
LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
4 Critical
Accounting Estimates and Judgements (continued)
The Group follows the guidance of IFRS 9 to determine when a
financial asset is impaired. This determination requires
significant judgement. In making
this judgement, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the
duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is
less than its cost, and the financial health of, and short-term
business outlook for, the investee, including factors such as
industry and sector performance, changes in technology and
operational, financing cash flow and proposed
fundraising.
5. Segmental Reporting
The Directors have determined that the Group operates three
distinct business segments over multiple geographical areas and
that these three segments form the basis of Group performance
monitoring; Investing activities, Advisory activities and Corporate
activity.
The Group generated revenue of £37,250 during the year ended
31 December 2023 (2022: £211,523). The Company generated revenue of
£10,417 during the year ended 31 December 2023 (2022:
£115,000).

24. Earnings
per Share
Group
The calculation of basic earnings per share of £(0.352) is
based on the loss attributable to equity owners of the parent
company of £(660,684) and on the weighted average number of
ordinary shares of 187,528,411 in issue during the
period.
In accordance with IAS 33, diluted earnings per share are not
disclosed as the Group is loss making and the effects of options
and warrants in issue is therefore antidilutive.
25. Commitments
The Group leases office premises under the short-term
operating lease agreement. The future aggregate minimum lease
payments under the short-term operating lease are as
