Chairman's Statement
I am pleased to report the 20 22 financial year results for CRUSHMETRIC Group Limited.
The Company formerly engaged in TCM healthcare and skincare products in the past years. The incidence of Covid forced a change in focus and therefore, during 2022, the nature of the Company's operations and its principal activities have changed to acting as the holding company of a group engaged in (i) design and production that integrates shape changing technology ("CRUSH") into a catalogue of products that is designed and invented by the artist and co-founder of CRUSHMETRIC Limited, Noah Deledda. This technology is built on his own series of dented aluminium can sculptures and (ii) the sale and distribution of the CRUSHMETRIC products through online and offline channels worldwide.
COVID-19
The continued outbreak of COVID-19 created a certain level of unpredictable challenges to our Hong Kong and China office during the year. However, since we have concentrated our resources in our product sales and our sales are mainly generated from our online platforms, this has resulted in the business being well placed to deliver services and products to its customers without significant disruption and with no increase in operational risk.
Review of significant activities
(i) Convertible Bond
On 19 July 2021, the Group entered into an extension agreement for the Convertible Bond. The maturity date extended to 19 January 2023 and the coupon rate adjusted to seven-point five percent (7.5%) per annum for the period from 20 July 2021 to 19 April 2022 and eight-point five percent (8.5%) per annum for the period from 20 April 2022 to 19 January 2023. All other terms remain unchanged. This Convertible Bond was further extended to 19 July 2024. Please refer to Note 29 in the non-statutory group financial statements for details.
(ii) Executive Distribution Rights and Business Restructuring
In March 2022, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, MiLOC Biotechnology Limited, was granted the exclusive distribution rights by CRUSHMETRIC Limited ("CRUSHMETRIC") to distribute CRUSHMETRIC's designer products including but not limited to the CRUSHMETRIC SwitchPen in all online and offline platforms.
In June 2022, the Company announced plans to restructure the business of the Group. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic in Hong Kong, following the suspension of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Centre ("TCM Centre") since October 2021, the Company decided to officially close the TCM Centre. The Company believes that by closing the TCM Centre, it can better utilise the capital resources of the Company and focus on more profitable business lines including, but not limited to, the sale and distribution of designer products under the CRUSHMETRIC brand. The Company has shifted more resources to the business of CRUSHMETRIC SwitchPen, through online (currently mainly through www.crushmetric.com ) and offline platforms.
In November 2022, the Company changed its name from MiLOC Group Limited to CRUSHMETRIC Group Limited, to better reflect the change in the Company's new strategy. The Chinese name was removed until the Company decided a suitable one. The ISIN of the Company remains unchanged as "KYG613521031". The Ticker symbol was changed to "CUSH". The Corporate website address of the Company was changed from www.miloc.com to www.crushmetricgroup.com .
In December 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of CRUSHMETRIC Limited. It has completed the allotments and issue of 153,486,965 new Ordinary Shares (the consideration shares) to the former owners of CRUSHMETRIC Limited, ONG Ban Poh Michael (Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of the Company) ; Noah Deledda and Lim Yi Shenn. After the share allotment, together with the shareholding through Megasia International Limited, Mr. Ong holds a total of 80,993,808 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing 33.7% of the issued shares. Mr. Deledda holds a total of 69,683,082 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing 29% of the issued shares. Together with the shares previously owned, Mr. Lim holds a total of 20,713,824 Ordinary Shares in the Company, which represents 8.63% of the issued share capital.

The Group will also continue to focus on R&D and launch the CRUSHMETRIC tumbler soon.
The Board will continue to take all reasonable efforts to ensure that sufficient working capital is maintained. The Board's objective is the same as previous year, which is to protect and safeguard as well as improve the business, to minimise cost and generate more sales income through online products.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank our management and staff for the great loyalty and dedication they continue to show through these delicate times. I would also like to extend our utmost appreciation to all our partners, shareholders, customers, business associates and suppliers, for their continued support.

The audit opinion contains the following statement:
"Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to note 3 in the financial statements, which explains, amongst other matters, that the Group is reliant on trading materially in line with projections and, should it fail to do so, on further support from shareholders, in particular the Directors who have agreed not to recall their loans in a manner that would prejudice the going concern of the Group and who have confirmed their ongoing support to the Group's business activities for the forthcoming twelve months. As stated in note 3, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter."
The financial information in this announcement is derived from the Group's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 20 22 which are available at the Company's website www.crushmetricgroup.com.
