Interim Management Report
Overview
The Company is a cash shell, whose principal activity is to identify potential acquisition opportunities. Once the Company has resolved matters with IFG, it will continue to consider such opportunities, targeting acquisitions in industries such as digital marketing, medical applications, business and financial services and the sports sector.
On 12 July 2021, the Company announced the signing of a non-binding agreement to potentially acquire IFG. In connection with this potential acquisition, Hawkwing raised GBP16.5 million on 12 August 2021 through the issue of Convertible Unsecured Loan Stock ("CULS"), of which the Company has loaned GBP13.7 million to IFG (SPP) Limited (in anticipation of the Reverse Takeover of IFG). This loan is secured against the assets of Northcore Limited and Shade Limited (t/a Shade Station) and guaranteed by IFG. In December 2021, IFG terminated discussions in respect of the heads of terms announced in July 2021. The Company remain in discussions with IFG in respect of its secured loan, associated costs, interest and redemption premium ("IFG liability"), until these discussions have been concluded it is not possible to ascertain if all of the IFG liability will be recoverable.
The Company will update the market as and when appropriate.

Notes to the Interim Report
General information
Hawkwing plc (the "Company") is incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The Company is listed on the Standard Segment of the Official List market of the London Stock Exchange. The registered address is 25 Walbrook, London EC4N 8AF.
Basis of preparation
The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Half Year Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority. These condensed financial statements do not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006, do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and have not been audited or reviewed by the auditors pursuant to the Financial Reporting Council guidance on Review of Interim Financial Information. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2021 (the "Annual Financial Statements"), which has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS"). The Annual Financial Statements constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 and a copy these statutory accounts has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those statutory accounts was unqualified and did not contain a statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the condensed financial statements are consistent with those used to prepare the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021 and those applicable for the year ended 31 December 2022. The preparation of the condensed financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing these condensed financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Annual Financial Statements described above. The condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
The reporting currency of the Company is GBP, unless stated otherwise.
Application of new standards in issue
In the current period, no new or amended standards have been adopted for the period commencing on or after 1 January 2022 have had any impact on these financial statements.
Going concern
The Company raised GBP1.3m, before costs, in September 2020 from an issue of shares, and issued convertible loan notes for proceeds of GBP16.5 million in August 2021. After an onward secured loan of GBP13.7m in September 2021 the Company has GBP2.3 million in cash on its balance sheet at 30 June 2022. The directors are in discussion with IFG in respect of its secured loan, associated costs, interest and redemption premium ("IFG liability"), until these discussions have been concluded it is not possible to ascertain if all of the IFG liability will be recoverable. The Company has minimal ongoing costs which reflect the costs of administrating its listing on the London Stock Exchange.
Based on the current cash availability, predicted expenditure levels, and the anticipated continued CULS holders support, the directors believe the Company's resources are sufficient to allow the Company to meet its obligations as they fall due for the foreseeable future, and as a minimum for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Consequently, the Directors will continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

at FVTPL
On 16 September 2021 the Company issued a three-year term loan, on which interest is charged at 8%, which may be capitalised in year one (the IFG loan). The loan is secured on the assets of the borrower and its group.
The loan carries a redemption premium upon repayment. The premium is 5% for repayments up to 15 September 2022, 10% for repayments between 16 September 2022 and 15 September 2023 and 15% thereafter.
The contractual terms of this financial instrument are such that the repayment and redemption premium do not meet the conditions to be measured at amortised cost, and the instrument is consequently measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
The net gain on financial assets measured at FVTPL comprises an increase in fair value of GBP714,000 and interest of GBP315,000.
