HIGHWAY CAPITAL PLC
INTERIM REPORT 2022
Chairman's Statement
Dear Fellow Shareholders
The Company announced the proposed acquisition of Guinevere Capital Esports & Entertainment on 11 October 2021, a transaction which would constitute a Reverse Takeover under the Listing Rules. The Company had hoped to complete this transaction during 2022 but market conditions have prevented this. It remains the intention of the Directors to conclude the acquisition and they continue to work with the Company's advisers to achieve this.
The results for the six months ended 31 August 2022 showed a loss before tax of GBP243,000 (six months ended 31 August 2021: GBP136,000 loss; year ended 28 February 2022: GBP543,000 loss).
No dividend has been declared.
Dr L Sobolewski
Chairman

Notes to the Interim Report
1. Basis of preparation of the interim report
The condensed set of financial statements for the six months ended 31 August 2022 has been prepared on a basis consistent with the financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2022.
The condensed set of financial statements for the six months ended 31 August 2022 has not been audited or reviewed by the auditors pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on Review of Interim Financial Information.
The comparative financial information for the year ended 28 February 2022 has been extracted from the audited financial statements, on which the auditors issued an unqualified audit report, and which have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies.
The financial information contained in the interim statement does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.
There are no acquired or discontinued operations in the relevant financial periods.
There are no recognized gains or losses other than the profit or loss for the relevant financial periods.
Highway Capital plc is a stand-alone company and does not prepare consolidated accounts. It has therefore continued to prepare its accounts in accordance with UK rather than international accounting standards.

Auditors' remuneration

============== ============== ==============
3. Profit/(loss) per share
The profit/(loss) per ordinary share calculation has been based on the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of GBP243,000 (August 2021: loss GBP136,000; February 2022: loss GBP543,000), divided by 11,490,201 (August 2021: 11,490,201; February 2022: 11,490,201) being the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. There is no difference between the basic and the diluted loss per ordinary share, as any adjustment would be anti-dilutive.
There are no discontinued operations in the periods and, therefore the basic and the diluted profit/(loss) per ordinary share from continuing operations are the same as the basic and the diluted profit/(loss) per ordinary share.
4. 2022 interim dividend
No interim dividend has been declared.
5. Creditors: falling due within one year
Creditors falling due within one year include GBP1,011,000 of convertible loan notes.
The loan note holders have all confirmed that they wish to convert their loans to equity when the company completes a suitable acquisition.
These loans are unsecured, convertible at the holder's request into new ordinary shares in the company at a price of 5 or 10 pence per share; in the event that the loans are not repaid or converted prior to their maturity date then they will attract accrued interest at a rate of 5% or 12% per annum.
6. Creditors: falling due after more than one year
There are no Creditors falling due after more than one year as at 31 August 2022.
