Papillon Holdings Plc
('Papillon' or the 'Company')
Half yearly report for the period ended 30 June 2019
Chairman's Report
Papillon Holdings PLC ("the Company") is an investment company incorporated on 19 October 2015, with the original primary objective of undertaking a single acquisition of a target company, business or asset in the industrial or service sector.
In our interim report published last year we reported that, on 18 May 2018, we had reached agreement via a non-binding head of terms to make an investment in 50% of the issued share capital of a fintech company focussed on the used car market, Pace Cloud Limited, trading as CarCloudÒ.
Car Cloud has developed innovative technology that bridges the gap between private and retail vehicle sales and delivers consistently high values for the user. It has an aggressive growth strategy, utilising its unique technology to expand its offering to an, as yet, underexploited area of the private car sale market; currently +200,000 private cars are sold and brought every month in the UK. The app has been launched, is being marketed "live" and beta tested, and can be searched and downloaded in App stores under the name, "CarCloud". The service had not yet been launched nationally but the KPIs continue to be very promising and Car Cloud has negotiated some potentially lucrative contracts with various service provider suppliers and is in the process of negotiating other contracts to provide the ultimate "total ownership" motor vehicle app on the market dealing with every aspect of owning a car from purchase to sale, from finance to insurance; and including roadside recovery, MOT, service and all other vehicle requirements.
The transaction is progressing well, and we have executed a Share Purchase Agreement to acquire a 50% interest in Pace Cloud Limited. Additionally, Papillon has raised a further GBP300,000 during the period which together with the previous GBP200,000, Papillon has now issued GBP500,000 of convertible loan notes ('Loan Notes') during the past twelve months. The Loan Notes carry an interest coupon of 10 per cent pa over their minimum term of 12 months, with a conversion price of 1.25 pence per new Papillon ordinary share.
The proceeds from the issue of the Loan Notes will be used, in conjunction with existing resources, to continue to finance the costs of developing the CarCloud App and business together with the expenses of Papillon Holdings PLC. The directors continue to believe that the investment in Car Cloud has enormous potential in a very large market and that the proposed investment should add significant shareholder value and the directors continue to investigate routes to enhancing the offering, the valuation and the route to market of CarCloud which are progressing well.
The investment proposes to break new ground in the market in which it operates, and the business model is a completely new solution in the way that individuals own and protect their vehicles, as described above it is a complete ownership solution from purchase and finance, through maintenance and on to the ultimate sale of a vehicle.
The Company has submitted a full information memorandum to the UK Listing Authority ('UKLA'), which the directors anticipate will be published in the near future in order that the placing and re-admission of the shares of your company to trading on the standard segment of the LSE may take place. The Investment is subject, inter alia, to the completion of due diligence, documentation and compliance with all regulatory requirements.
I would personally like to thank our shareholders again for their patience during this process and the extended time in which the shares of your company have been suspended from trading and we look forward to a successful future post the completion of our investment in Car Cloud.
Results for the period
For the period from 1 January 2019 to 30 June 2019, the Company's results included the ongoing running costs of the Company including listing fees on the London Stock Exchange and other advisory costs.
Risks and uncertainties
The Company is a relatively new entity, with only a brief operating history, and therefore, investors have no basis on which to evaluate the Company's ability to achieve its objective of identifying, acquiring and operating one or more companies or businesses.
Whilst the company has executed a Share Purchase Agreement to acquire a 50% interest in Pace Cloud Limited, the directors are unable to offer assurance that the relisting of Papillon Holdings PLC will complete and /or that we will be able to raise the necessary funds vi a placing upon re-listing to enable Car Cloud to fulfil its short term plans.
Going Concern
As stated in Note 1 to the condensed financial statements, the directors are satisfied that the Company has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed financial statements.

Lord Monson has 35 years of experience in the City where has advised financial houses and quoted companies in different sectors on investor relations.

4. Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.
For diluted loss per share, the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is based on the following figures:-
Period ended Period ended Year ended 30 June 30 June 31 December 2019 2018 2018 GBP GBP GBP (unaudited) (unaudited) (audited) Loss for the period (198,460) (161,917) (396,749) Weighted average number of shares - basic and diluted 132,400,000 132,400,000 132,400,000 Basic earnings per share (0.150p) (0.122p) (0.299p) -------------- -------------- -------------- Diluted earnings per share (0.150p) (0.122p) (0.299p) -------------- -------------- --------------
The basic and diluted earnings per share are the same, since where a loss is incurred the effect of outstanding share options and warrants is considered anti-dilutive and is ignored for the purpose of the loss per share calculation.
5. Share Capital
As at 30 As at 30 As at 31 June June December 2019 2018 2018 GBP ('000) GBP ('000) GBP ('000) (unaudited) (unaudited) (audited) 132,400,000 Ordinary shares of GBP0.001 each (132) (132) (132) -------------- -------------- --------------
6. Convertible loan notes
On 26 October 2018 the Company issued GBP100,000 convertible loan notes, repayable on 25 October 2019 if not converted into shares prior to that date, and bearing interest at 10% p.a, payable quarterly in arrears. On 28 November 2018 the Company also issued GBP100,000 convertible loan notes, repayable on 27 November 2019 if not converted into shares prior to that date, and bearing interest at 10% p.a, payable quarterly in arrears. On 16(th) May 2019 the Company also issued GBP300,000 convertible loan notes, repayable on 15(th) May 2020 if not converted into shares prior to that date, and bearing interest at 10% p.a, payable quarterly in arrears.
The net proceeds from the three separate issues of the loan notes have been split between the liability element and an equity component, representing the fair value of the embedded option to convert the liability into equity of the Company.
The Directors estimate the fair value of the liability component of the loan notes at 30 June 2019 to be approximately GBP486,905. This fair value has been calculated by discounting the future cash flows at the deemed market rate of 12%.
