UNAUDITED CODENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 APRIL 2022 TO 30 SEPTEMBER 2022

 
 
 

Chairman's statement

I am pleased to present the unaudited condensed interim financial results for the Company for the six months ended 30 September 2022.

The principal activity of the Company is to acquire businesses in the primary and secondary segments of the education technology sectors.

To enable the Company to pursue its principal activities, the Company initiated an Initial Public Offering ("IPO") of its securities onto the London Stock Exchange through a Standard Listing to raise the necessary funds required for the execution of the business strategy. The IPO was successfully completed and the Company's shares were admitted for trading on 25 March 2022. This listing enables the Company to raise funds for acquisitions which may be in the form of a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, scheme of the arrangement, reorganisation or similar business combination of an interest in an operating entity or investment.

As at the reporting period end, the Company did not have any current operations, no products were sold, and no services were performed by the Company. It did not operate or compete in any specific market, and the Company had no subsidiaries. The Company continues to seek acquisitions of UK and overseas businesses or assets with operations in the sectors that can contribute greater benefits to shareholders.

Strategy

The Company retains a flexible merge and acquisition strategy which will enable it to deploy capital in target companies by way of minority or majority investments, or full acquisitions where it is in the interests of shareholders to do so.

The Company's strategic aim is to drive shareholder value through the acquisition of target companies in certain sectors where the Board believes there to be sustainable growth opportunities both organically, and through acquisition.

Gender analysis

A split of our employees and directors by gender during the period is shown below:

                                                    Male                      Female 
   Directors                                           2                           1 

As the Company is only in its infancy, gender of the Board is skewed towards males. This does not reflect the attitudes of the Company in any way and the Directors will promote females in the Board and in the workforce wherever possible.

All the Directors are from minority ethics background.

Developments in the six month period ended 30 September 2022

In the six months period ended 30 September 2022, the Company has steadily promoted the Company's development by following aspects:

   1.       Effective corporate governance systems implementation 

The Board of Directors of the Company strictly implemented various systems in accordance with the Company Law and relevant governance and regulatory requirements of listed companies, including but not limited to strict approval system, internal control system, external announcement system, etc.

   2.       Active review on the Company's strategy and our mission. 

We have actively learnt and collected cutting-edge information on scientific and technological development, improved the global vision of board members, and created a solid reserve of professional knowledge in order to find suitable acquisition targets that are conducive to creating value for all shareholders.

   3.       Assurance on the healthy operation of the Company. 

In the past six months, the Company has been in a healthy operating condition, and has followed relevant ESG guidelines to implement a green, environmental-friendly, and efficient operating strategy to ensure that the Company's financial situation remains healthy, the Company's Board of Directors and management remain stable, and thus effectively ensuring the healthy development of the Company.

4. Participation in relevant seminar and training organized by the London Stock Exchange and third-party intermediaries.

We have systematically studied the relevant requirements of the public announcement of listed companies and methods to promote the Company's brand value in a quality manner.

Risks and uncertainties

The Company has yet to complete an investment or acquisition, it has limited trading history. As such, the Company continued to be subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with an early-stage acquisition company.

The Directors are of the opinion that these risks, which were detailed in the published results for the financial period ended 31 March 2022, remain applicable to the Company.

Dividend

At this point of the Company's development, it does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. Following the Company's inaugural investment or acquisition, the Directors will determine an appropriate dividend policy.

Looking forward, the Company will strictly enforce corporate governance and further strengthen the leadership of the Board of Directors over the Company. We have been actively looking for acquisition targets that can create long-term value for all shareholders and meanwhile we continue to be confident in our potential acquisition opportunities even if the volatility in capital markets continues to cause challenges across the markets.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the shareholders for their continued support as we build Beacon Rise into a significant organisation.

The Interim Report and directors' responsibility statement were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 December 2022.

   1.       Accounting policies 

Going concern

The Company's condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

The Directors review the Company's financial forecast against the quarterly management accounts to assess the Company's working capital requirement. The Company will carry out further fundraising when a suitable acquisition target is found.

It is on these considerations that the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has sufficient funds and adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

The Directors are evaluating the impact that these standards may have on the financial statements of the Company. The effect of these new and amended Standards and Interpretations which are in issue but not yet mandatorily effective is not expected to be material.

3.3 Segmental analysis

The Company manages its operations in one segment, seeking a suitable investment in the primary and secondary segments of the education technology sectors. The results of this segment are regularly reviewed by the Board as a basis for the allocation of resources, in conjunction with individual investment appraisals, and to assess its performance.

These financial statements are presented in pound sterling, which is the Company's functional currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest pound unless otherwise indicated.

 
 
  5.    Accounting estimates and judgments 
 

The Company makes estimates and assumptions regarding the future.

In the future, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. There are no estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial period.
