VVV Resources Limited (formerly Veni Vidi Vici Limited) (The "Company" or "VVV")
Audited Annual Report and Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021 Chairman's Report (Incorporating the strategic review)
I am pleased to present the annual report and financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2021.
OPERATIONS REVIEW
The Company completed its first investment, with the signing of the sale and purchase agreement with Goldfields Consolidated Pty Ltd ("Goldfields") for a 51 % beneficial interest in the Shangri La gold, copper and silver project in late 2018.
The Shangri La Project is a gold-copper-silver project comprising a polymetallic hydrothermal quartz vein type deposit covering an area of 10 hectares. The Shangri La Project is located 10 kilometres west of Kununurra, the central town of the Northeast Kimberley region in Western Australia.
The Company and Goldfields have also entered into a Joint Venture Agreement ("JVA") under which VVV will be responsible for an initial expenditure fee of AUD USD300,000 over three years from the commencement of the JVA. Goldfields manage the Joint Venture ("JV") and are entitled to a 10% management fee of expenses incurred by the JV.
During the period, the Company was advised that in the first six months limited work was undertaken on the Shangri la project, mainly only desk studies. However, when COVID-19 restrictions eased somewhat in Western Australia midway through the year, physical activity commenced again on the project with site visits to obtain ten rock samples taking place during October 2021. These samples were collected by an independent consultant geologist from Western Australia and VVV are pleased with the results and look forward to continuing further work to develop the potential of the project in 2022. The Company envisages field work to begin in earnest in the coming months as it is believed the pandemic should have limited effect on any future work programme.
Mr. Donald Strang resigned as a Director in June 2021 and Mr Rigoll was appointed as Executive Chairman to the Company in March 2021.
FINANCE REVIEW
The loss for the period to 31 December 2021 amounted to GBP431,000 (2020: loss of GBP100,000) which mainly related to regulatory costs and other corporate overheads. The total revenue for the period was GBPNil (2020: GBPNil). As at 31 December 2021, the Company had cash balances of GBP87,000 (2020: GBP272,000).
The Company does not recommend the payment of a dividend in the current year, similar to the prior year.
OUTLOOK
The Board remains confident that the private and pre-IPO markets remain significantly under-served and as such significant opportunities exist for the Company going forward. We look forward to 2022 being one in which we can acquire further investment positions, thereby realising tangible value for all shareholders.
We will continue to seek out further investments in line with the Company's investing strategy.
The directors would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders, staff and consultants for their continued support.

General information
1
VVV Resources Limited (formerly Veni Vidi Vici Ltd) is a company incorporated on 14 November 2017 in the
British Virgin Islands ("BVI") under the BVI Business Companies Act, 2004 (as amended). The address of
its registered office is Vistra Corporate Services Centre, Wickhams Cay II, Road Town, Tortola, VG1110,
British Virgin Islands. The Company's ordinary shares are traded on the AQSE Growth Market as operated by
Aquis Stock Exchange ("AQSE"). The Company's registered number is 1960948 and its place of business is
65 Chulia Steet, OCBC Centre #42-06, Singapore 049513. Its principal activity is that of an investment
vehicle to identify investment opportunities and acquisitions in companies in the Precious Metals and
Base Metals sectors.
The financial statements of VVV Resources Limited (formerly Veni Vidi Vici Ltd) for the year ended 31
December 2021 were authorised for issue by the Board on 27 July 2022 and the statements of financial
position signed on the Board's behalf by Mahesh Pulandaran.
Investing policy
The investment strategy of the Company is to provide Shareholders with an attractive total return
achieved primarily through capital appreciation. The Directors believe that there are numerous investment
opportunities within both private and public businesses in the Base Metals and Precious Metals sector in
North America and Australia.
The Board, through its extensive network of contacts, has identified a number of potentially interesting
investment opportunities, although formal discussions in respect of any of these opportunities have not
yet commenced.
The Company is likely to be an active investor and acquire control of certain target companies although
it may also consider acquiring non-controlling shareholdings. The proposed investments to be made by the
Company may be in either quoted or unquoted securities and made by direct acquisition of an interest in
companies, partnerships or joint ventures, or direct interests in projects and can be at any stage of
development. Accordingly, the Company's equity interest in a proposed investment may range from a
minority position to 100 per cent. ownership and a controlling interest.
If the Company takes a controlling stake, the acquisition could trigger a Reverse Takeover under Rule 57
of the AQSE Exchange Rules.
The Directors intend to acquire one or more investments in quoted or unquoted businesses or companies (in
whole or in part) thereby creating a platform for further investments. The Company may need to raise
additional funds for these purposes and may use both debt and/or equity.
The Directors and the Technical Adviser believe that their broad, collective experience, together with
their extensive network of contacts, will assist them in identifying, evaluating and funding suitable
investment opportunities. External advisers and investment professionals, over and above the Technical
Adviser, will be engaged as necessary to assist with sourcing and due diligence of prospective
opportunities. The Directors will also consider appointing additional directors with relevant experience
if the need arises.
It is anticipated that returns to Shareholders will be delivered primarily through an appreciation in the
price of the Ordinary Shares rather than capital distribution via regular dividends. In addition, there
may be opportunities to spin out businesses in the form of distributions to Shareholders or make trade
sales of business divisions and therefore contemplate returns via special dividends. Given the nature of
the investment strategy, the Company does not intend to make additional regular and periodic disclosures
or calculations of net asset value outside of the requirements for a AQSE Growth Market traded company.
It is anticipated that the Company will hold investments for the medium to long term, although where
opportunities exist for shorter term investments, the Company may undertake such investments. Notes to the financial statements (continued)
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Investing policy (continued)
In compliance with Rule 51 of the AQSE Exchange Rules, if the Company (as an Investment Vehicle) has not
substantially implemented its investing policy after the period of one year following Admission, it will
seek Shareholder approval in respect of the subsequent year for the further pursuit of its investment
strategy.
Pursuant to Rule 52 of the AQSE Exchange Rules, the Company (as an Investment Vehicle), is required to
substantially implement its investment strategy within a period of two years following Admission. In the
event that the Company has not undertaken a transaction constituting a Reverse Takeover under Rule 57 of
the AQSE Exchange Rules, or if it has otherwise failed to substantially implement its investment strategy
within such two year period, AQSE Exchange will suspend trading of the Company's Issued Share Capital in
accordance with Rule 78 of the AQSE Exchange Rules. If suspension occurs, the Directors will consider
returning the Company's cash to Shareholders after deducting all related expenses.
The Directors intend to review the investment strategy on an annual basis and, subject to their review
and in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, the Directors intends to adhere to the investment
strategy. Changes to the investment strategy may be prompted, inter alia, by changes in government
policies or economic conditions which alter or introduce additional investment opportunities. It is the
intention of the Directors to invest the Company's cash resources, as far as practicable, in accordance
with the investment strategy. However, due to market and other investment considerations, it may take
some time before the cash resources of the Company are fully invested.
It is intended that the funds initially available to the Company will be used to meet general working
capital requirements, to undertake due diligence on potential target acquisitions and to make investments
in accordance with the investment guidelines described above.
Statement of compliance with IFRS
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and as applied in accordance with the provisions of the
BVI Business Companies Act, 2004 (as amended). The principal accounting policies adopted by the Company

Presentation of Financial Statements
The adoption of these standards is not expected to have any material impact on the financial
statements of the Company.
Going Concern
The Directors noted the losses that the Company has made for the period ended 31 December 2021. The
Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts extending to 31 December 2023 which show that, in order for
the company to continue to discharge its liabilities as they fall due and to continue with its planned
exploration expenditure, additional cash will be required.
Notes to the financial statements (continued)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
The Directors are in discussions with potential investors and are confident that they will be successful in raising the necessary additional funds.
The ability to successfully raise additional finance is subject to uncertainty. However, the Directors believe this uncertainty will be successfully resolved and the company will raise sufficient cash to enable the Company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. They have, therefore, prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
The financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that would be required to be made if they were prepared on a basis other than the going concern basis.
2 Significant accounting policies
Finance costs / investment revenue
Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.
Investment revenue is recognised as the Company becomes entitled to such revenue. Dividends are
accounted for on receipt thereof.
Share capital
Financial instruments issued by the Company are treated as equity only to the extent that they do not
meet the definition of a financial liability. The Company's ordinary shares are classified as equity
instruments.
Share-based payments
Where equity settled share options are awarded to directors, the fair value of the options at the date
of grant is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the vesting period. Non-market
vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to
vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting
period is based on the number of options that eventually vest.
Fair value measurement
IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance for all fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not
change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to measure
fair value under IFRS when fair value is required or permitted. The resulting calculations under IFRS
13 affected the principles that the Company uses to assess the fair value, but the assessment of fair
value under IFRS 13 has not materially changed the fair values recognised or disclosed. IFRS 13 mainly
impacts the disclosures of the Company. It requires specific disclosures about fair value measurements
and disclosures of fair values, some of which replace existing disclosure requirements in other
standards.
The company has no assets or liabilities at fair value
Financial instruments
Financial investments
Non-derivative financial assets comprising the Company's strategic financial investments in entities
not qualifying as subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities. These assets are classified
as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. They are carried at fair value with changes
in fair value recognised through the income statement. Where there is a significant or prolonged
decline in the fair value of a financial investment (which constitutes objective evidence of
impairment), the full amount of the impairment is recognised in the income statement.
The company has no assets or liabilities at fair value.
Notes to the financial statements (continued)
__________________________________________________________________________________
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair value, and are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Trade and other receivables are accounted for
at original invoice amount less any provisions for doubtful debts. Provisions are made where there is
evidence of a risk of non-payment, taking into account the age of the debt, historical experience and
general economic conditions. If a trade debt is determined to be uncollectable, it is written off,
firstly against any provisions already held and then to the statement of comprehensive income.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously provided for are credited to the statement of profit or
loss and other income.
Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in profit or loss in
accordance with the expected credit loss model under IFRS 9. For trade and other receivables which do
not contain a significant financing component, the Company applies the simplified approach. This
approach requires the allowance for expected credit losses to be recognised at an amount equal to
lifetime expected credit losses. For other debt financial assets the Company applies the general
approach to providing for expected credit losses as prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits for the
recognition of an allowance for the estimated expected loss resulting from default in the subsequent
12-month period. Exposure to credit loss is monitored on a continual basis and, where material, the
allowance for expected credit losses is adjusted to reflect the risk of default during the lifetime of
the financial asset should a significant change in credit risk be identified.
The majority of the Company's financial assets are expected to have a low risk of default. A review of
the historical occurrence of credit losses indicates that credit losses are insignificant due to the
size of the Company's clients and the nature of its activities. The outlook for the natural resources
industry is not expected to result in a significant change in the Company's exposure to credit losses.
As lifetime expected credit losses are not expected to be significant the Company has opted not to
adopt the practical expedient available under IFRS 9 to utilise a provision matrix for the recognition
of lifetime expected credit losses on trade receivables. Allowances are calculated on a case-by-case
basis based on the credit risk applicable to individual counterparties.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are held at amortised cost which equates to nominal value.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, current balances with banks and similar institutions
and liquid investments generally with maturities of 3 months or less. They are readily convertible
into known amounts of cash and have an insignificant risk of changes in values.
Investment in joint venture
A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby the Company and other parties undertake an
economic activity that is subject to joint control; that is when the strategic financial and operating
policy decisions relating to the activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing
control.
These financial statements include the Company's share of the total recognised gains and losses of
joint ventures using the equity method, from the date that significant influence or joint control
commences to the date that it ceases, based on present ownership interests and excluding the possible
exercise of potential voting rights, less any impairment losses. When the Company's interest in a joint
venture has been reduced to nil because the Company's share of losses exceeds its interest in the joint
venture, the Company only provides for additional losses to the extent that it has incurred legal or
constructive obligations to fund such losses, or where the Company has made payments on behalf of the
joint venture. Where the disposal of an investment in a joint venture is considered to be highly
probable, the investment ceases to be equity accounted and, instead, is classified as held for sale and
stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Reversals of impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
Notes to the financial statements (continued)
___________________________________________________________________________________
Impairment of non-current assets
The carrying values of all non-current assets are reviewed for impairment when there is an
indication that the assets might be impaired. Any provision for impairment is charged to the statement
of comprehensive income in the year concerned.
Impairment losses on other non-current assets are only reversed if there has been a change in
estimates used to determine recoverable amounts and only to the extent that the revised recoverable
amounts do not exceed the carrying values that would have existed, net of depreciation or amortisation,
had no impairments been recognised.
Taxation
BVI Business Companies are exempt from the BVI income tax, from tax on dividends, interest,
royalties, compensations and other amounts paid by a company, also they are exempt from all the capital
gains, estate, inheritance, succession or gift tax with respect to any shares, debt obligations or
other securities of the BVI International Business Companies. The companies are exempt from any kind
of stamp duties relating in any way to its assets or activities, with an exception for land-ownership
transactions in the BVI: in that case stamp duty remains payable.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it
is probable that the Company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be
made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the
consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account
the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of
exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. All differences are taken to the statement of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical
experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources.
3
Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on
an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate
is revised if the revision only affects that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods
if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Significant estimates and assumptions that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at 31 December 2021 are set out below:
Notes to the financial statements (continued)
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Carrying value of the investment in Joint Venture
Management have reviewed the carrying value of the investment for signs of impairment. Due to the
pandemic and illness of the geologist there was no activity in the Joint Venture in the year to 31
December 2020 and limited activity commenced in early 2021 which was sufficient to meet the minimum
licence spend of an average of USD2,000 per year over the licence period. The licence expired in August
2021 and the Company, together with its joint venture partner renewed it for a further four years.
Management acknowledge that the carrying value of the investment which is based on its initial cost is
based on judgement. Therefore an annual impairment review is carried out each year end by the Directors
and due to this uncertainty they approved at year end for a valuation to be carried out by a local third
party expert for the purposes of the audit. Accordingly, the directors have concluded that no
impairment is required as at 31 December 2021.
In addition,
Valuation of share-based payments to employees
The Company estimates the expected value of share-based payments to employees and this is charged
through the income statement over the vesting period. The fair value is estimated using the Black
Scholes valuation model which requires a number of assumptions to be made such as level of share
vesting, time of exercise, expected length of service and employee turnover and share price volatility.
This method of estimating the value of share-based payments is intended to ensure that the actual value
transferred to employees is provided for by the time such payments are made.
4 Segmental information
An operating segment is a distinguishable component of the Company that engages in business activities
from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by
the Company's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about the allocation of resources and
assessment of performance and about which discrete financial information is available.
The chief operating decision maker has defined that the Company's only reportable operating segments
during the period is that of investment within the Precious and Base Metals Sector.
Subject to further acquisitions the Company expects to further review its segmental information during
the forthcoming financial period.
The Company has not generated any revenues from external customers during the reported period.
In respect of the total assets of GBP245,000, all arise in the company and within the Investment sector
noted above.

9 Loss per share
2021 2020
The calculation of loss per share is based on the loss after taxation GBP'000 GBP'000
divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period:
Net loss after taxation
(431) (100)
Number of shares
Weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purposes of basic loss 1,884,167
per share 1,742,954
Basic and diluted loss per share (expressed in pence) (22.87) (5.74)
As inclusion of the potential ordinary shares would result in a decrease in the earnings per share they
are considered to be anti-dilutive, as such, a diluted earnings per share is not included.

At 31 December 2021 245,000 options were exercisable (2020: 245,000).
For those options and warrants granted where IFRS 2 "Share-Based Payment" is applicable, the fair values were calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The inputs into the model for the current and prior year were as follows:
Risk free rate Share price volatility Expected life Share price at date of grant
2 August 2018 1.00% 84% 60 months GBP0.50
4 June 2020 0.63% 84% 60 months GBP0.60
Expected volatility was determined by calculating the historical volatility of similar listed companies share prices for 12 months prior to the date of grant. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations.

Interest rate risk and liquidity risk
The Company is funded by equity, maintaining all its funds in bank accounts. The Company's policy
throughout the period has been to minimise the risk of placing available funds on short term deposit.
The short-term deposits are placed with banks for periods up to 1 month according to funding
requirements.
The Company had no undrawn committed borrowing facilities at any time during the period.
Currency risk
The Company is directly exposed to currency risk of its investments, as they are based in Australia,
and exposed to movement against the Australian Dollar as their assets, liabilities, revenue and
expenditure are denominated therein. The company is denominated in pound sterling.
Market risk
The company is not currently exposed directly to market risk in relation to its investments, as these
are not currently listed on any stock market anywhere in the world.
Fair values
Cash and cash equivalents (which are presented as a single class of assets on the face of the balance
sheet) comprise cash held by the company with an original maturity of three months or less. The
carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value.
The directors consider there to be no material difference between the book value of financial
instruments and their values at the balance sheet date.
Notes to the financial statements (continued)
____________________________________________________________________________________
Risk management framework
The Company's board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the
Group's risk management framework.
The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the
Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk
management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the
Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to
develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their
roles and obligations.
Cost may be an appropriate estimation of fair value at the measurement date only in limited
circumstances, such as for a pre-revenue entity when there is no catalyst for change in fair value, or
the transaction date is relatively close to the measurement date. Other indicators include insufficient
recent information, wide range of possible fair values and cost represents the best estimate.
18 Capital Commitments & Contingent Liabilities
There are no non-cancellable capital commitments as at the balance sheet date. The Company has no
contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date.
19 Ultimate control
The Company has no individual controlling party.
