Chairman's Statement

Dear Valued Shareholders,

It gives me a great pleasure to present the financial statements of daVictus Plc (the "Company" or "daVictus") for year ended 31 December 2016 on behalf of the Board of Directors.

Throughout 2016, the Company aimed to identify target companies or businesses in the food and beverages ("F&B") sector - which operate in or own Western food and beverage F&B eatery franchises in South East Asia and/or the Far East.

The Directors have carried out a comprehensive and thorough investment review of a number of prospective franchises in the F&B sector with high growth prospects, none of which has met the necessary criteria for selection to date.

While we continue our efforts to identify targets for acquisition, the Company has funds sufficient for general corporate purposes and pre-acquisition activities, including on-going costs and expenses such as Directors' fees and salaries, due diligence costs and other costs of sourcing, reviewing and pursuing Acquisitions.

I look forward to the year ahead with gratitude to our support from shareholders.

Abd Hadi Bin Abd Majid

Chairman

Operational and Financial Review

During the year, several opportunities were presented to the Company and were either actively reviewed or quickly rejected for not meeting our selection criteria. Examples of those we investigated are as below:

-- F&B company based in South East Asia was presented to the Company for acquisition consideration. However, following an extensive review, the Company did not make an offer as it was considered overvalued.

-- Reputable international F&B chain approached the Company about the a joint venture opportunities. These ideas were very early stage and are still under consideration.

-- Expresso Bar Chain is looking for expansion in China, Discussion is now going on whether it would be a possibility of joint venture/ or Master franchise rights.

-- European restaurant chain was considering overseas expansion and they are looking for an operator with a good track record. In the end, the restaurant chain decided that the Company does not meet their requirements.

daVictus is still at an early stage of its investment period, initially set at three years. The Directors believe that the initial investment period should be sufficient but if no suitable opportunities can be consummated in that timeframe, , there will be a requirement for the investment period to be extended. The Company is flexible in its approach but will proceed only with opportunities that are of sufficient quality

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company does not enter at present into any forward exchange rate contracts or any other hedging arrangements. The main financial risks arising from the Company's activities are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk, price risk (fair value) and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised as:

Cash flow interest rate risk - the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's overdraft accounts with major banking institutions.

The Company's policy is to manage its interest income, when received, using a mixture of fixed and floating rate deposit accounts.

Liquidity risk - the Company raises funds as required on the basis of budgeted expenditure and inflows. When funds are sought, the Company balances the costs and benefits of equity and debt financing. When funds are received they are deposited with banks of high standing in order to obtain market interest rates.

Price risk - the carrying amount of the following financial assets and liabilities are approximate to their fair value due to their short term nature: cash accounts, accounts receivable and accounts payable.

Credit risk - with respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Company, which comprise cash and time deposits and accounts receivable, the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a minimum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The credit risk on cash is limited as cash is placed with substantial financial institutions.

The notes to the financial statements form an integral part of this financial information

   1.       General information 

The Company was incorporated as a public company under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 as amended on 5 February 2015 and had not commenced substantive operations during the period under review.

The registered office of the Company is 43/45 La Motte Street, St. Helier, Jersey JE4 8SD. The Company has been formed to undertake one or more acquisitions of businesses (either shares or assets) which operate in or own Australian, European and/or North American food and beverage ("Western F&B") eatery franchises in South East Asia and/or the Far East.

The financial information of the Company is presented in British Pound Sterling ("GBP").

   2.      Significant accounting policies 
   a)      Basis of preparation 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted for use by the European Union, and effective, or issued and early adopted, as at the date of these statements. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified for financial assets carried at fair value.

The comparative financial figures covers the period from incorporation on 5 February 2015 to 31 December 2015.

   b)      Going concern 

This financial statement has been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future.

   3.      Income tax 

The Company is not a "Financial Services Company" registered under the relevant Jersey laws; or a specified utility company and therefore it is subject to Jersey income tax at the general rate of 0 per cent. If the Company derives any income from Jersey property, including development of land or quarrying, such income will be subject to tax at the rate of 20 per cent. It is not expected that the Company will derive any such income.

   4.       Loss per share 

The calculation of loss per share is based on the following loss and number of shares:

 
                                        2016       2015 
 
 Loss for the year from continuing 
  operations (GBP)                      223,314   221,220 
 
 Weighted average shares in 
  issue (unit)                        9,232,877   791,667 
 
 Loss per share (GBP per share)        GBP0.02    GBP0.28 
                                     ----------  -------- 
 

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss for the year from continuing operations of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares in issue during the year.

There are no potential dilutive shares in issue therefore the diluted loss per share has not been calculated.
