-- As at 31 December 2022, cash balance was GBP433,945 compared with GBP339,665 at 30 June 2022. Total assets as at 31 December 2022 were GBP2,572,399 whilst net assets were GBP1,826,295 compared with GBP2,735,272 as at 30 June 2022.

Review of operations by the Chief Executive Officer

Cordel Group Plc ("the Group") the Artificial Intelligence platform for transport corridor analytics offers a patented cloud-based platform for master data management and business analytics. Together with specialist hardware and software for capturing, analysing and reporting on large datasets within the transport and infrastructure sectors, employing sophisticated artificial intelligence algorithms.

Overview of results

During the half year ended 31 December 2022, the Company secured a significant new contract with Angel Trains, further strengthening our position in the UK rail market. The Company's engagement with USA railroads continues to improve, particularly following the release of our Automated Intelligent Clearance solution on 22 November 2022. Railways worldwide are seeking to replace dangerous human track inspections and reduce the carbon footprint of traditional clearance measurement methods, which include heavy and slow inspection trains.

The Company has simplified its operating structure by consolidating its Airsight Australia and Nextcore activities into Cordel operations. The primary investment focus is continuing the development of the Cordel Artificial Intelligence analytics platform.

Revenue for the half year is summarised as follows:

Underlying EBITDA for the period was a loss of GBP0.789 million.

Ongoing operations

The Company operates from offices in London, UK and Newcastle, Australia with staff in these locations and in the USA. The Company has customers in Australia, UK, Japan and the USA. As of 31 December 2022, the Company had cash and receivables totalling GBP0.673 million.

Outlook

The Company continues to be awarded new contracts following competitive bid processes. This results in steady growth of the total mileage of railway track under long-term data management and, combined with new analytic services released in 2022 and planned for 2023, is expected to produce further growth in recurring revenue.

The financial statements cover Cordel Group PLC ('Company') as a consolidated entity consisting of Cordel Group plc and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the period (referred to as the 'Group'). The financial statements are presented in Pounds Sterling, which is Cordel Group plc's functional and presentation currency.

The Company was incorporated on 6 December 2017 as a private company, Maestrano Group Limited. On 11 May 2018, the Company converted to a public company, Maestrano Group plc and on 30 May 2018 was admitted onto the Alternative Investment Market ('AIM'). On 19 April 2018, as part of a group reorganisation, the Company acquired 100% of the ordinary shares of Maestrano Pty Ltd from the existing shareholders and became the immediate and ultimate parent of the Group. On 31 October 2019, Maestrano Group plc acquired 100% of the shares in Airsight Holdings Pty Limited, an Australian based company.

On the 18 November 2021, Maestrano Group plc changed its name to Cordel Group plc.

   Registered office                                          Principal place of business 
   10 John Street                                                2/2 Frost Drive 
   London WC1N 2EB                                        Mayfield West NSW 2304 
   United Kingdom                                              Australia 

A description of the nature of the Group's operations and its principal activities are included in the directors' report, which is not part of the financial statements. The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 31 January 2023. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies

These financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2022 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.

These interim financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Group will continue as a going concern. Under the going concern assumption, an entity is ordinarily viewed as continuing in business for the foreseeable future. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, the directors have considered the Group's existing working capital and are of the opinion that the Group has adequate resources to undertake its planned program of activities for the 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Further details of the directors' considerations in relation to going concern are included in the directors' report.

Note 3. Operating segments

Identification of reportable operating segments

The Group operates in one segment being provision of data integration and analytic services. This operating segment is based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

The operating segment information is the same information as provided throughout the consolidated financial statements and are therefore not duplicated.
