STRATEGIC REVIEW REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Chairman’s Report
Vox Valor Capital Limited (“Vox Valor” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that its audited financial statements for
the year ended 31 December 2023 have been published and are available on its website at www.voxvalor.com/investors.
The Vox Valor Group (“Vox Valor Group” or “the Group”) is active in providing mobile marketing and advertising related
services and these are conducted through its 100% owned UK operating subsidiary Mobio Global Limited (“Mobio Global”).
Mobio Global has two operating subsidiaries in the United States and Singapore. The Group employs 30 contractors and
employees in total across its subsidiaries.
The Group was formed in 2022 upon the reverse takeover (“RTO”) of Vox Capital Limited, a company that acquired Mobio
in 2020 as part of its strategy to grow its mobile marketing and advertising technology service and product offering and to grow
Mobio into the European and American markets. Prior to the completion of the RTO, Mobio Global divested its Russian
operations and management increased its efforts to grow Mobio in the UK, the European Union and North America.
Vox Valor is continuously evaluating potential acquisition opportunities to acquire mobile or digital content businesses, such
as mobile game or application developers or publishers in order to extract operational synergies from being vertically integrated
in owning mobile/digital content business and the Mobio digital marketing and advertising services and technology offering.
This strategy is based on leveraging Mobio’s experience in mobile marketing with the need of mobile content businesses, such
as mobile game and app developers, to acquire new users for their games and apps. The Company will make further
announcement as and when any acquisition opportunities, which are being analysed, are closed.
Through Mobio, the Vox Valor Group provides a wide range of mobile marketing services, including user acquisition services,
app store optimisation services, mobile retargeting, digital strategy consulting services, marketing creatives, video production
services and in app advertising services.
These services are instrumental for clients to acquire new users, control their mobile marketing spend or ‘cost per install’ and
scale the user base and revenue of their mobile games or applications.
Mobio has very significant experience in providing user acquisitions services by developing and executing mobile marketing
campaigns for its clients. In addition, Mobio also provides services that are complementary to its clients core mobile marketing
strategies, such as app store optimisation services (which aim to improve organic user growth by optimising the presence of its
clients’ apps and games in the major app stores) and retargeting services (using its proprietary Feedwise platform to re-engage
with app users).
Mobio complements its service offering with mobile advertising creatives and video creative productions for those clients that
are not able or do not want to develop such marketing assets in-house and also offers digital marketing strategy or consulting
services to some of those clients.
In 2023, Mobio implemented the Mobio Growth Lab initiative, which is a dynamic incubator that helps Mobio’s client
(including new or early-stage clients) to grow their install base and profit levels through a step-by-step process to support them
in every stage of the product and marketing life cycle.
The Vox Valor Group is pleased to report improved and positive total comprehensive profit for the year ended 31 December
2023 of USD 469k versus a loss of USD 5.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2022. While revenue decreased from
USD 13.8 million during for the year ended 31 December 2022to USD 5.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2023 due
to the disposal of the Russian subsidiary of the Group, the Company managed to reduce the operating expenses from USD 13.8
million to USD 5.7 million.
Vox Valor announced that it had signed two term sheets for potential acquisitions during the year ended 31 December 2023,
which the Company has either terminated or the term sheet expired and therefore no merger and acquisitions activities took
place in 2023. The Company is continuing to identify potential acquisitions that are complimentary to the Group’s strategy
where it can generate meaningful synergies from its mobile marketing expertise and technology.
For the next financial year, we are looking forward to growing Vox Valor both organically and through potential acquisitions.
The organic growth plans of the Group include the expansion of the Group’s mobile marketing services and technology offer
(Mobio) in the UK, Europe and the United States.

Summary of Trading Results and Outlook
For the financial year ended 31 December 2023, Vox Valor reported revenue of USD 5.6 million (versus USD 13.8 million in
the previous financial period) and an operating loss of USD 90k (versus a gross profit of USD 29k in the previous financial
period).
Total comprehensive income for the year was a profit of USD 469k (versus a loss of USD 5.7 million in the previous financial
period), which is still mainly caused by non-recurring expenditure and accounting write-offs and impairments in relation to the
reverse takeover (“RTO”).
Environmental, social and governance
Environmental
Vox Valor Capital seeks to become more energy efficient. The Company uses online video conferencing platforms and will
continue to promote the use of these for the majority of internal meetings to minimize travel footprint.
All staff actively engage in the recycling of all waste materials wherever possible, including e-waste. The business activity of
the Group includes mainly working with computers, with a relatively small negative effect on the environment.
Social
Diversity & Inclusion
The Company recognizes how important its people are in the success of the business. The Group is proud to recruit, develop
and retain the most talented people from all different backgrounds. Vox Valor Capital understands the importance of diversity
across the business to foster collaboration and a culture which strives to deliver the Group’s strategy. Vox Valor Capital is
committed to the equal treatment of all employees and prospective employees.
Career development
The Board believes that good progression opportunities for our team members are offered within the Group’s businesses, and
as a business we try to promote from within through training.
Health and Safety
Vox Valor Capital has a Group wide health and safety Policy. All health and safety incidents are reported to the Board.
Anti-slavery statement
The Group is committed to effective systems and controls being in place to ensure the Modern Slavery Act 2015 is upheld
throughout the business and that partners and affiliates, throughout the supply chain, have similarly high standards and respect
all local and international laws and regulations.
Governance
Corporate governance statement
The Board believes in the value and importance of strong corporate governance, at executive level and throughout the operation
of the business, and in our accountability to all stakeholders.
Future ESG goals
The Company recognizes that further progress can be made towards a sustainable future and has set the following goals:
– encourage employees to use recyclable or biodegradable materials,
– continue to recruit locally,
– continue promoting recycling across the Group, and
– continue to review and implement ESG/sustainability criteria/policies at the Board level.
Climate change
The Company takes into account the interconnection of climate risks with other types of risks and, on this basis, manages them
as part of its overall risk management process. This analyses both transition risks (political, legal, technological, market,
reputational, related to changes in demand and consumer preferences) and physical risks (related to the physical effects of
climate change, natural disasters, extreme weather conditions) that may affect the company's operations.
A review of the Group’s approach to sustainability and societal impact during the year is set out below.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 6 -
The Group recognise the increasing importance of climate change triggered by greenhouse gases (GHG) from burning fossil
fuels. In terms of Energy efficiency, our energy usage was estimated to be on the same level in 2023 compared with 2022.
Environmental
The Group’s operations are conducted in such a manner that compliance is maintained with legal requirements relating to the
environment in areas where the Group conducts its business. During the period covered by this report, the Group has not
incurred any fines or penalties or been investigated for any breach of environmental regulations.
The Directors consider that, due to the nature of the Group’s operations, it does not have a significant impact on the
environment. However, the Group seeks to minimise its carbon impact and recognises that its activities should be carried out
in an environmentally friendly manner where practicable. The Group’s environmental impact is under continual review and
the Group considers related initiatives on an ongoing basis. In 2023, these included: continued reduction of waste and, where
practicable, re-use and recycling of consumables; continued reduction of usage of energy, water and other resources; ongoing
upgrades to LED lighting; and reprogramming of certain air conditioning and air handling systems to increase efficiency and
implement timed shut downs when not in use.
Facilities and Office Environments
Management engages with its office provider and its facilities management provider to ensure a safe working environment for
our employees.
Environmental management is overseen by the Chief Executive Officer. The Group complies with the Companies Act 2006
(Strategic Report and Directors Report) Regulations 2013. There were no prosecutions or compliance notices for breaches of
environmental legislation during 2023.
Going Concern
The day to day working capital requirements and investment objectives are met by existing cash resources, available credit
facilities and the issue of equity. At 31 December 2023, the Group had cash balances of USD 144k and available credit lines.
The Group’s forecasts and projections, taking into account reasonable possible changes in the level of overhead costs, show
that the company should be able to operate within its available cash resources. The directors have, at the time of approving the
financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in existence for the foreseeable
future. They therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Statement of directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law
and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare Group and parent company financial statements for each financial year. Under
that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting
Standards. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give
a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and company and of the group’s profit or loss for that period. In preparing
these financial statements, the directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether they have been prepared in accordance UK adopted International Accounting Standards
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will
continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s
transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the group and company. They are also
responsible for safeguarding the assets of the group and company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and
detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the
Company’s website.
Corporate Governance
The Board recognizes that good standards of corporate governance help the Company to achieve its strategic goals and is vital
for the success of the Company. The Company adopts proper standards of corporate governance and follows the principles of
best practice set out in the QCA Corporate Governance Code (v.1 2018), as far as is appropriate for the size and nature of the
Company and the Group.
The QCA Code has ten principles of corporate governance that the Company has committed to apply within the foundations
of the business. These principles are:
1. Establish a strategy and business model which promote long-term value for shareholders;
2. Seek to understand and meet shareholder needs and expectations;
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 9 -
3. Take into account wider stakeholder and social responsibilities and their implications for long tern success;
4. Embed effective risk management, considering both opportunities and threats, throughout the organisation;
5. Maintain the board as a well-functioning balanced team led by the Chair;
6. Ensure that between them the directors have the necessary up to date experience, skills and capabilities;
7. Evaluate board performance based on clear and relevant objectives, seeking continuous improvement;
8. Promote a corporate culture that is based on ethical values and behaviours;
9. Maintain governance structures and processes that are fit for purpose and support good decision-making
by the Board; and
10. Communicate how the Company is governed and is performing by maintaining a dialogue with shareholders and other
relevant stakeholders.
The Company applies the above principles in its regular activities.
Principle 1 – Business Model and Strategy
Vox Valor Capital Limited is a UK based technology investment Group. The Company completed a reverse takeover of Vox
Capital Limited in 2023.
Vox Capital Limited is as a vehicle with the purpose of consolidating businesses in the digital marketing, advertising and
content sector. To date, Vox Capital has acquired a 100% interest in Mobio Global Limited (Mobio), a UK digital marketing
company and has also acquired an equity interest in another trading business: Airnow PLC, a UK based app monetisation and
marketing group. On 18 October 2023, Mobio Global UK sold its 100% interest in Mobio (Singapore) Pte Ltd to Vox Valor
Capital Ltd. For further information on the market, the future strategy of the Company and the risks the Board consider to be
the most significant for potential investors, Shareholders are referred to the Strategic Report in the latest Annual Report and
Accounts (which is available on our website).
Principle 2 – Understanding Shareholders‘ Needs and Expectations
Communication with shareholders is co-ordinated and led between the CEO who is the Company’s principal spokesperson
with investors and other interested parties.
The Company is in dialogue with, and holds meetings with, shareholders and brokers representing private shareholders as
required in a coordinated way, providing them with such information on the Company’s progress as is permitted under MAR
and requirements of relevant legislation.
The Company regularly updates its website and releases news flow and operational updates. Communications are also provided
through the Company’s Annual and Interim Reports.
Shareholders are encouraged to attend the Annual General Meeting, which the Board believes is a good opportunity to
communicate directly with shareholders.
The Company discloses contact details on its website and on all announcements released via RNS, should shareholders wish
to communicate with the Board.
Principle 3 – Consider Wider Stakeholder and Social Responsibilities
The Board believes that its stakeholders (other than shareholders) are its employees, customers, suppliers and their funders.
The Board recognises that the long-term success of the Company is reliant upon the efforts of the Company, advisers and these
stakeholders.
The Board makes every effort to communicate effectively with all stakeholders, to ensure that the Company complies with
contractual terms.
Principle 4 – Risk Management
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Company’s risk management objectives and policies and
recognises the need for an effective and well-defined risk management process. The overall objective of the Board is to set
policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility. The
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 10 -
Board is responsible for the monitoring of financial performance against budget and forecast and the formulation of the
Company’s risk appetite including the identification, assessment and monitoring of the Company’s principal risks.
For further information on the risks the Board consider to be the most significant for potential investors, Shareholders are
referred to the Strategic and Directors’ Report contained in the latest Report and Accounts which are available on the
Company’s website.
Principle 5 – A Well-Functioning Board of Directors
The Board is responsible for the management of the business of the Company, setting the strategic direction of the Company
and establishing the policies of the Company. It is the Board’s responsibility to oversee the financial position of the Company
and monitor the business and affairs of the Company on behalf of Shareholders, to whom the Directors are accountable. The
primary duty of the Board is to act in the best interests of the Company at all times.
The Board also addresses issues relating to internal control and the Company’s approach to risk management.
The Board consists of one Executive Director and three Non-Executive Directors, all of whom are considered to be
independent. All the Directors are expected to devote as much time to the affairs of the Company as may be necessary to fulfil
their roles.
Financial information submitted regularly to the Board includes balance sheets and profit & loss accounts; together with
analyses of movements in cash, trade debtors and creditors, and fixed assets.
Certain other high level decisions that cannot await the convening of a formal Board meeting may be agreed by way of written
resolutions. In such cases supporting papers are submitted to the directors and they are given the opportunity to discuss the
matter with other directors and executive management. Written resolutions are deemed passed only if all directors vote in
favour.
It is not practical or justifiable from a cost perspective for the whole Board to meet face-to-face at every board meeting. So
where one or more directors is unable to be physically present, use is made of video-conference calls.
Principle 6 – Appropriate Skills and Experience of the Directors
The Company believes that the current balance of skills within the Board as a whole reflects a broad and appropriate range of
commercial, technical and professional skills relevant to the business.
The Directors have access to the Company’s external advisers e.g. lawyers and auditors as and when required and are able to
obtain advice from other external advisers when necessary.
All Directors have access to independent legal advice at the Company’s expense.
The Board will seek to take into account Board Diversity & Inclusion for future nominations, with areas to take into account
including gender balance.
Principle 7 – Evaluation of Board Performance
Evaluation of the performance of the Company’s Board has historically been implemented in an informal manner.
The Board will review and consider the performance of each director at or around the time of publication of the Company’s
Annual Report.
On an ongoing basis, board members maintain a watching brief to identify relevant internal and external candidates who may
be suitable additions for current board members.
The Company undertakes annual monitoring of personal and corporate performance. Responsibility for assessing and
monitoring the performance of the executive directors lies with the independent non-executive director.
The Board as a whole is mindful of the need for considering succession planning.
Principle 8 – Corporate Culture
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 11 -
The Board believes that a corporate culture based on sound ethical values and behaviours is essential to maximise shareholder
value in the medium to long-term. The Company recognises the importance of promoting an ethical corporate culture,
interacting responsibly with all stakeholders and the communities in which the Company operates.
Guided by the Group’s core values of simplicity, empowerment, passion, innovation and authenticity, the Group seeks to
promote a culture where its people can thrive. For Vox, this means promoting strong business ethics and putting in place
policies and programmes to build trust with employees.
As a first priority, Vox seeks to uphold individual human rights in its operations and expects the same from all partners. The
Group’s policies outline the behaviours expected from employees and suppliers at all times and set out the Group’s zero
tolerance approach towards any form of modern slavery, discrimination or unethical behaviour relating to bribery, corruption
or business conduct.
The Group is committed to building an inclusive culture, where people feel able to be their best at work, irrespective of age,
race, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity or gender.
Principle 9 – Maintenance of Governance Structures and Processes
The Board provides strategic leadership for the Company and operates within the scope of a robust corporate governance
framework. Its purpose is to ensure the delivery of long-term shareholder value, which involves setting the culture, values and
practices that operate throughout the business, and defining the strategic goals that the Company implements in its business
plans.
The Board meets regularly to determine the policy and business strategy of the Group and has adopted a schedule of matters
that are reserved as the responsibility of the Board. The CEO leads the development of business strategies within the Group’s
operations. The Board currently consists of one Executive Directors and three Non-Executive Directors.
The Board considers that there is an appropriate balance between the Executives and Non-executives and that no individual or
small group dominates the Board’s decision making.
The Board has considered mechanisms by which the business and the financial risks facing the Company are managed and
reported to the Board. The principal business and financial risks have been identified and control procedures implemented. The
Board acknowledges its responsibility for reviewing the effectiveness of the systems that are in place to manage risk and to
provide reasonable but not absolute assurance with regard to the safeguarding of the Company’s assets against misstatement
or loss.
Internal controls
The Board has ultimate responsibility for the Company’s system of internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness.
However, any such system of internal control can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material
misstatement or loss. The Board considers that the internal controls in place are appropriate for the size, complexity and risk
profile of the Group. The principal elements of the Group’s internal control system include:
• Close management of the day to day activities of the Group by the executive Directors;
• Flat organisational structure with defined levels of responsibility, which promotes entrepreneurial decision making and
rapid implementation whilst minimising risks;
• A comprehensive annual budgeting process producing a detailed integrated profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow,
which is approved by the Board;
• Semi-annual reporting of performance against budget; and
• Central control over key areas such as capital expenditure authorisation and banking facilities.
The Company continues to review its system of internal controls to ensure compliance with best practice, whilst also having
regard to its size and the resources available. The Board has an Audit Committee.
The Executive Director is responsible for implementing and delivering the strategy and operational decisions agreed by the
Board, making operational and financial decisions required in the day-to-day operation of the Company, providing executive
leadership to managers, championing the Company’s core values and promoting talent management.
The Independent Non-Executive Directors contribute independent thinking and judgement through the application of their
external experience and knowledge, scrutinise the performance of management, provide constructive challenge to the Executive
Director and ensure that the Company is operating within the governance and risk framework approved by the Board.

The Board reviews the effectiveness of its corporate governance structures and processes annually.
The Company has also implemented A Share Dealing Code for Directors´ and employees´ dealings in securities which is
appropriate for a company whose securities are traded on the London Stock Exchange and is in accordance with the
requirements of the Market Abuse Regulation which came into effect in 2016.
Principle 10 – Shareholder Communication
The Board is committed to maintaining good communication with its shareholders, providing them with such information on
the Company’s progress as is permitted by MAR and the requirements of the relevant legislation.
The Board believes that the Company’s Annual Report and Accounts, and its Interim Report published after the half year, play
an important part in presenting all shareholders with an assessment of the Company’s position and prospects.
The Annual General Meeting is the principal opportunity for shareholders to meet and discuss the Company’s business with
the Directors. There is an open question and answer session during which shareholders may ask questions both about the
resolutions being proposed and the business in general. The Directors are also available after the meeting for an informal
discussion with shareholders.
Results of shareholder meetings and details of votes cast will be publicly announced through RNS and displayed on the
Company’s website with suitable explanations of any actions undertaken as a result of any significant votes against resolutions.
All reports and press releases are published on the Group’s website: www.voxvalor.com/investors and the Company will
continue to keep its website up to date, participate in investor presentations, attend conferences and release news flow and
operational updates as appropriate.
Application of principles of good governance by the Board of directors
There are regular board meetings during the year and other meetings are held as required to direct the overall Company strategy
and operations. Board meetings follow a formal agenda covering matters specifically reserved for decision by the Board. These
cover key areas of the Company’s affairs including overall strategy, acquisition policy, approval of budgets, major capital
expenditure and significant transactions and financing issues.
The Board undertakes an annual evaluation of its own performance and that of its committees and individual directors, through
discussions and one-to-one reviews with the chairman.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
PRINCIPAL RISKS
Mobio’s strategy is focused on growth in relatively new markets
Since the acquisition of Mobio by Vox, Mobio has started to increase its European and American client base and revenues and
this will remain the key focus of Mobio’s management team. In 2022, Mobio incorporated Mobio Global Inc (“Mobio US”),
which is managed by Mr Sergey Konovalov and used as the vehicle through which the Mobio Group intends to build its US
business. The changes in business processes, the relocation of key team members and the loss of revenue from its previous
Russian operating subsidiary caused disruption to the Mobio Group and during this transition period, growth of the Mobio
Group may be impacted. There is also a risk that as Mobio Global and Mobio US are less mature, the Mobio Group’s business
will not be able to attract new clients and generate the desired levels of revenue and profit. This means there is a risk that the
Mobio Group may not be successful in fully replacing the revenue loss caused by the disposal of Mobile Marketing LLC (or
achieving this in a timely manner), which if it should occur would have a significant adverse impact on the financial
performance and position of the Group.
There is a risk that changes in the policy of third party platforms may impact the timing of revenue for the Group
A key part of the service Mobio provides involves the use of third-party platforms such as Facebook Ads Manager, Google
Ads, the App Store or Google Play. In order to utilise these platforms, Mobio is obliged to comply with the policies of those
platforms. There is always a risk that these platform providers may restrict or limit Mobio’s ability to obtain non-personal data
that is regularly utilised within the mobile marketing industry for purposes of segmenting, targeting or tracking mobile
marketing campaigns. For instance, as part of the release of iOS 14, Apple specified that in 2021 app users would now need to
opt in before their identifier for advertisers (“IDFA”) can be accessed by an app. Apple’s IDFA is a string of numbers and
letters assigned to Apple devices which advertisers use to identify app users to deliver personalised and targeted advertising.
Mobio previously used IDFA to optimise user acquisition strategies and traffic campaigns. Although Mobio was able to adapt
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 13 -
to these changes and the impact on Mobio’s business was not material, it did result in clients reducing their marketing budgets
while the effect of the IDFA depreciation was better understood which delayed the Mobio Group’s receipt of revenues as
campaigns were delayed or scaled back initially.
Mobio also uses platforms that are maintained by Apple and Google to advertise and market its clients’ apps through app store
optimisation techniques and paid app store advertising. Both Apple and Google have broad discretion to make changes to such
app management and advertising platforms or to change the manner in which such systems function and also amend their
respective terms and conditions applicable to the use of such systems.
It is not possible to predict whether Apple and/or Google or other platform providers will change their policies. If such a change
in policy were to occur, there is likely to be a period of adaptation and during this period revenue may be reduced. Fortunately,
these changes are often made with significant advance warning which gives Mobio and other mobile marketing companies
time to adapt to these changes.
Changes in algorithms used by platforms may affect the financial performance of Mobio
Mobio uses third-party platforms to market its clients’ content and applications including Facebook Ads Manager, Google Ads
and Iron Source. The effectiveness of Mobio’s mobile marketing campaigns may be impacted by algorithms that are utilised
by app stores or advertising networks or other platforms. Mobio’s ability to understand these algorithms is key to Mobio’s
service offering. Third-party platforms can change their algorithms and such changes can reduce the effectiveness of Mobio’s
marketing strategies or in the worst case make them redundant. In the event that Mobio’s marketing strategies are less effective,
it will make Mobio’s services less attractive to clients which will have a negative effect on Mobio’s revenue and its financial
performance. It may also cause Mobio to need to dedicate more internal resource to adapting to changes in algorithms which
will divert resource from other projects related to the longer-term success of Mobio. Mobio has implemented an internal quality
checking process that is designed to detect changes in algorithms as early as possible so that Mobio can adapt its strategies as
soon as practicable after the change. However, there can be no guarantee that these processes will always be successful in
detecting changes in algorithms or that Mobio will be able to adapt to the changes quickly.
Changes in privacy and data protection laws may negatively affect Mobio’s business
Mobio processes and stores data in the ordinary course of its business, including processing and storing of data from mobile
devices for executing and optimising mobile marketing campaigns for its clients. Currently, rather than using personal data,
Mobio uses its ability to target or segment users based on certain features, such as geography, location, device type, operating
system, apps installed on a device or other features and such information can usually be obtained and stored without identifying
an individual consumer or app user. Mobio’s understanding is that in the jurisdictions in which Mobio is active this is normally
outside the scope of data privacy and protection regulations and legislation.
Mobio believes it complies with the applicable data protection and privacy regulations in the relevant jurisdictions, however,
there is no guarantee that these data protection and privacy regulations will not be subject to change. Mobio operates in a
number of jurisdictions, the vast majority of which are subject to complex laws relating to privacy and data protection. The
trend is for these data protection and privacy-related laws and regulations to become more and not less restrictive. There is a
risk that there may be changes to the privacy and data protection in jurisdictions in which Mobio carries out business which
result in greater regulatory oversight and increased levels of enforcement and sanctions.
If there are changes to data protection and privacy regulations which impose in greater compliance obligations on Mobio, this
is likely to result in increased costs for Mobio and therefore for the Group. In particular, there is likely to be additional cost of
staff training in order to adapt to changing business practices and comply with new regulations and legislation. Furthermore,
such changes may impact on the marketing budgets that clients will spend (or the timing thereof) and this may have a
(temporary or more permanent) impact on Mobio’s revenue and therefore indirectly affect the Group. In the event that Mobio
is found to have breached data protection and privacy regulations, it could be exposed to large fines which are likely to cause
significant reputational damage to Mobio which will be likely to have a significant negative effective on the financial
performance of the Mobio Group.
Mobio is subject to credit risk through the default of a client
Mobio is subject to credit risk through the default of a client. Mobio is generally paid in arrears for a significant proportion of
its services and invoices are typically payable within 30 days for agency clients and up to 90 days for direct-to-brand clients,
which accounts for an increasing proportion of Mobio’s business mix. There can be no assurance that one or more significant
clients may not at any future time file for bankruptcy, become insolvent or otherwise be unable or unwilling to pay sums due.
In such event, Mobio may be unable to collect balances due to it on a timely basis or at all. The damages, costs, expenses, or
legal fees arising from lack of payment by a significant client or other counterparty could have a material adverse effect on the
business, revenues, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Group.
RISKS RELATING TO THE GROUP
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 14 -
The Company is reliant on key executives and people
The Group’s business, development and prospects are dependent upon the continued services and performance of its Proposed
Directors and senior management. The experience and commercial relationships of the Proposed Directors and senior
management will help the Group execute its strategy. The Directors and the Proposed Directors believe that the loss of services
of any existing senior management, or failure to attract and retain necessary people, could adversely impact the business,
prospects, financial condition, results of operations and development of the Group.
Risk of additional UK, EU, UN and US sanctions against Russian individuals or entities
Certain persons and entities related to Russia were made the subject of UK, EU, UN and US sanctions following Russia’s
annexation of Crimea. Following Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine in 2022, further persons and entities with connections to
Russia have been sanctioned by the United States, the EU and the UK. Currently the sanctions situation is changing very
quickly with no advance notice. These sanctions and the uncertainty concerning additional future sanctions were considered
undesirable for a publicly listed group and this was the key driver for Vox Capital’s decision to sell Mobile Marketing LLC
and cease trading with Russian clients. As a result of this decision, this has meant that no company in the Group is incorporated
in Russia and that none of the Group has a banking relationship with a Russian financial institution. Also, the Group no longer
transacts with Russian clients. The Group still employs or engages contractors that are Russian nationals outside Russia. No
person employed or engaged by the Group or any entity in the Group is currently subject to any sanctions. None of the Russian
nationals engaged have political affiliations or other factors that would be likely to expose them to the possibility of being
personally sanctioned. Therefore, the Board’s assessment is that there is currently a very low risk of a sanction applying or
effecting the Group in any way.
The main risk is that one or more sanctions regimes are expanded to indiscriminately target Russian nationals, which the Board
considers to be very unlikely as generally sanctions are targeted at a governmental regime and parties related to that regime
rather than the mass population of a particular country. If this were to occur, there would be period of disruption for the Group
to re-organise the Group’s labour force so that it was unaffected by sanctions. This disruption is likely to negatively affect the
revenue of the Group, cause one off costs such as recruitment costs and possibly an increase in the Group’s cost base due to
needing to pay higher wages to attract appropriately qualified staff. Therefore, this is likely to negatively affect the financial
performance of the Group. In any case, the Group has adopted a sanction policy and regularly cross checks all Russian national
staff and employees against sanctions lists.
RISKS RELATING TO THE COMPANY’S ACQUSITION STRATEGY
The Company may not successfully identify and complete further suitable acquisition opportunities in the future
It is the Group’s strategy to grow the Mobio business and pursue acquisition opportunities that are complementary to the
Group’s business. Although Vox Capital is in discussions with a number of targets, the Company cannot estimate how long it
will take to conclude acquisitions or whether they will be concluded at all. If the Company fails to complete a proposed
acquisition (for example, because it has been outbid by a competitor or there is an issue with the target company) it may be left
with substantial unrecovered transaction costs. These costs will reduce the Company’s cash reserves and this may mean the
Company needs to raise further funds outside of the Working Capital Period.
The desired synergies from acquisitions may not be realised
The Group level of profit will be reliant upon the existing business and the performance of any businesses acquired. The success
of the Company’s strategy in part depends upon the ability of the Group’s management team to apply their financial and sectoral
expertise to effect operational improvements in the acquired companies. There can be no guarantee that if acquisitions are
made that they will be a success and/or will be accretive to the profitability of the Group. This may be because the business
does not perform as expected as, there are difficulties in cross selling or up selling the Group’s offering to the acquired
company’s clients or vice versa or integrating sales efforts more generally. There can also be difficulties retaining and
incentivising the staff of the acquired business and retaining clients of the acquired business. In addition, even if the Company
completes an acquisition, general economic and market conditions or other factors outside the Company’s control could make
the Company’s operating strategies difficult or impossible to implement. All of these factors mean that the desired synergies
or economies of scale may not be achieved and therefore the acquisition has a negative effect on the profits of the Group and
takes up unexpected cash resource and management time. The Company will endeavour to avoid these risks through extensive
legal, financial and commercial due diligence and approach every acquisition with a plan on how it is to be integrated, however,
there can be no guarantee that these plans will be successful.
Acquisitions of private companies are subject to a number of risks
Although the Company is not ruling out acquiring a public company, it is focused on acquiring unlisted private companies.
Private companies may have limited operating histories and smaller market shares than publicly held businesses making them
more vulnerable to changes in market conditions or the activities of competitors. They are also often dependant on a small
number of key personnel who often will need to be motivated to stay with the business to continue its previous success. The
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 15 -
public disclosure requirements for private companies are usually significantly less than for public companies and the Company
will therefore be dependent on its due diligence and assurances obtained from the seller or sellers to understand the risks related
to the target business.
There can be no assurance that the due diligence undertaken with respect to a potential acquisition will reveal all relevant facts
that may be necessary to evaluate an acquisition including the determination of the price the Company may pay. Also, the seller
or sellers may provide information during the due diligence process that may be inadequate, incomplete, or inaccurate. If the
due diligence fails to uncover material issues or such issues are not disclosed, then the Company may have overpaid for the
target business and/or need to provide the target business with additional capital. This may result in the Group incurring
substantial impairment charges or other losses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Vox Valor Capital Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary undertakings
(together referred to as the “Group”) for the year ended 31 December 2022, which comprise:
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2023;
the consolidated and company statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023;
the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended 31 December 2023;
the consolidated and company statement of changes in equity for the year ended 31 December 2023;
notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information
In our opinion, the financial statements:
give a true and fair view of the state of the Group and Company ’s affairs as at 31 December 2023 and the Group’s loss for the
year then ended; and have been properly prepared in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards.
Our opinion is consistent with our reporting to the audit committee.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”) and applicable law. Our
responsibilities under ISAs (UK) are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We remained independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial
statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, as applicable to listed public interest entities, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services prohibited by the FRC’s Ethical Standard were not
provided. We have provided no non-audit services to the Company or its controlled undertakings in the period under audit.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the
preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment of the Group’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting
included carrying out a risk assessment which covered the nature of the group, its business model and related risks including
where relevant the impact of Coronavirus, the requirements of the applicable financial reporting framework and the system of
internal control. We evaluated the directors’ assessment of the group’s ability to continue as a going concern, including
challenging the underlying data and key assumptions used to make the assessment, and evaluated the directors’ plans for future
actions in relation to their going concern assessment. Additionally, we reviewed and challenged the results of management’s
stress testing, to assess the reasonableness of economic assumptions on the Group’s solvency and liquidity position.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that,
individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company’s or Group’s ability to continue as a going concern for
a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections
of this report.
Overview of our audit approach
Materiality
In planning and performing our audit we applied the concept of materiality. An item is considered material if it could reasonably
be expected to change the economic decisions of a user of the financial statements. We used the concept of materiality to both
focus our testing and to evaluate the impact of misstatements identified.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined overall materiality for the financial statements as a whole to be $251,783
based on approximately 2% of the Group’s gross assets for the financial year.
We use a different level of materiality (‘performance materiality’) to determine the extent of our testing for the audit of the
financial statements. Performance materiality is set based on the audit materiality as adjusted for the judgements made as to
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 17 -
the entity risk and our evaluation of the specific risk of each audit area having regard to the internal control environment. We
determined performance materiality to be $188,837.
Where considered appropriate performance materiality may be reduced to a lower level, such as, for related party transactions
and directors’ remuneration.
We agreed with the Audit Committee to report to it all identified errors in excess of $12,589. Errors below that threshold would
also be reported to it if, in our opinion as auditor, disclosure was required on qualitative grounds.
Overview of the scope of our audit
Our group audit was scoped by obtaining an understanding of the group and its environment, including the group’s system of
internal control, and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements at the group level.
The Group has 3 components, Vox Valor Capital Limited (the listed legal parent company), Vox Capital Limited (the UK
registered holding company of Mobio Global Limited) and Mobio Global Limited (“Mobio”) (the main operating business of
the group). In approaching the audit, we considered how the group is organised and managed.
Our group audit scope focused on the group’s principal operating business, Mobio, which was subject to a full scope audit
together with the listed legal parent company Vox Valor Capital Limited and Vox Capital Limited. Shipleys LLP performed
the audit of both Vox Valor Capital Limited and Vox Capital Limited. Bellerage Audit LLC performed the audit of the Mobio
component.
The group audit team was actively involved in the direction of the audit and specific audit procedures performed by the
component auditor along with the consideration of findings and determination of conclusions drawn. As part of our audit
strategy, we issued group audit engagement instructions and discussed the instructions with the component auditor. A senior
member of the group audit team met with the component auditor and performed a review of the component audit files and we
discussed the audit findings with the component auditor.
We performed a full scope audit on the Group in accordance with ISAs (UK).
We designed our audit by determining materiality and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements.
In particular, we looked at areas where the Directors made subjective judgements, which involved making assumptions and
considering future events that are inherently uncertain, such as their going concern assessment.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance on our audit of the financial
statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due
to fraud) that we identified, including those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation of
resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team.
Going concern was identified as a key audit matter and has been addressed within the “Conclusions relating to going concern”
section of the audit report. We have determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our report. Our
audit procedures in relation to the matter were designed in the context of our audit opinion as a whole. They were not designed
to enable us to express an opinion on the matter individually and we express no such opinion.
Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Revenue recognition
We carried out procedures to test the revenue and to
consider whether the application of the revenue
recognition policy was appropriate, having regard any
contractual terms and obligations. This also includes
reviewing the work carried out by the component
auditors with regards to revenue.
Based on this understanding, we considered if the
underlying income was recognised in accordance with
the stated accounting policy.
Management override of controls
We have reviewed journal adjustments and the
rationale behind them and have considered whether
these have been subject to potential management bias.
From our procedures carried out no adverse issues
were identified with regards to management override
of controls.
Valuation of investments at fair value
The Group holds an Investment in Airnow plc at Fair
Value. Airnow plc is an unquoted company and there
is a risk in relation establishing the fair value from
reliable and independent market data.
We have reviewed the management’s assessment of
the valuation of the group’s investment in Airnow plc.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 18 -
The directors were able to provide independent
evidence of the market value as at 31 December 2023.
Our procedures did not result in any significant
findings surrounding the accounting for the
transaction based on the audit evidence obtained.
Impairment of investment in subsidiaries
Due to current economic conditions (such as increase
in interest rates) There is a risk that investment in
subsidiaries held by VVC Ltd might have impairment
We have reviewed the management’s impairment
assessments for the cost of investments in
subsidiaries.
The directors were able to provide evidence of value
in use being greater the costs of investments in the
parent company .
Our procedures did not result in any significant
findings surrounding the accounting for the
transaction based on the audit evidence obtained.
Deferred Tax assets in Mobio group
Mobio global has recognised a deferred tax asset in its
balance sheet for the year ended 31
st
December 2023.
The pre-conditions for recognising deferred assets are
very stringent. We need to ensure that there will be
sufficient profits in future year to utilize previous
years trading losses.
To confirm that there will be sufficient trading profits
to set off carried forward losses we have review
client’s financial plan for the next five years.
Our procedures did no result in any significant
findings surrounding the accounting for the deferred
tax asset.
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our
auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion
on the non-statutory financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly
stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to
determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the non-statutory financial statements themselves. If, based on
the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in respect of these matters.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the
financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company and Group’s ability to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting
unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is
a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with
our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to
which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below:
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the Group operates, focusing on those laws
and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The laws and regulations we considered in this context were relevant company law and tax legislation in the jurisdictions in
which the Group operates.
We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be the
override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquiries of management about
their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals, and reviewing
accounting estimates for biases.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances on non-
compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the non-statutory
financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional
misrepresentations, or through collusion.
Our audit testing might include testing complete populations of certain transactions and balances. However, it typically involves
selecting a limited number of items for testing, rather than testing complete populations. We will often seek to target particular
items for testing based on their size or risk characteristics. In other cases, we will use audit sampling to enable us to draw a
conclusion about the population from which the sample is selected.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting
Council’s website at https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Appointment
We were appointed by the board on 21 February 2022. Our total uninterrupted period of engagement is 3 years.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Company’s members, in accordance with the terms of our engagement letter. Our audit work
has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an
auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to
anyone other than the Company and the Company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions
we have formed.

General
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 25 -
An asset is disclosed in the statement of financial position when it is probable that the expected future economic benefits
attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured. A liability is disclosed in the
statement of financial position when it is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic
benefits and the amount of the obligations can be measured with sufficient reliability.
If a transaction results in transfer of future economic benefits and/or when all risks associated with assets or liabilities have
been transferred to a third party, the asset or liability is no longer included in the statement of financial position. Assets and
liabilities are not included in the statement of financial position if economic benefits are not probable or cannot be measured
with sufficient reliability.
The income and expenses are accounted for during the period to which they relate. Revenue is recognized when control over
service is transferred to a customer.
The Management is required to form an opinion and make estimates and assumptions for assets, liabilities, income, and
expenses. The actual result may differ from these estimates. The estimates and the underlying assumptions are constantly
assessed. Revisions are recognised during a corresponding revision period as well as any future periods affected by the revision.
The nature of these estimates and judgements, including related assumptions, is disclosed in the notes to corresponding items
in the financial statement.
Basis of consolidation
On 30 June 2021 the Company announced its intention to acquire Vox Capital Ltd, the parent company that wholly owns a
mobile marketing agency, Mobio Global, and has shareholdings in an influencer marketing automation platform and a mobile
app monetisation platform. The Acquisition was constituted a Reverse Takeover (RTO) under the Listing Rules as the value
of the consideration exceed the Company's market capitalisation and it result in a fundamental change in the business of the
Company as it owns an operating business. On 30 September 2022, the Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement
with the Vox Sellers.
Consolidated financial statements reflect the substance of the transaction. The substance of the transaction is Vox Capital Ltd,
the accounting acquirer (operating company) has made a share-based payment to acquire a listing along with the listed
company’s cash balances and other net assets. The transaction is therefore accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2.
The Consolidated Financial Statements incorporate the financial information of Vox Capital Ltd and all its subsidiary
undertakings. Subsidiary undertakings include entities over which the Group has effective control. The Company controls a
group when it is exposed to, or has right to, variable returns from its involvement with the Group and has the ability to affect
those returns through its power over the Group. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights.

Principles for foreign currency translation
The financial statements of the Group are presented in US dollars, which is the Group’s presentation currency.
Receivables, liabilities, and obligations denominated in any currency other than USD are translated at the exchange rates
prevailing as of the reporting date.
Transactions in any currency other than USD during the financial year are recognized in the financial statements at the average
annual exchange rate. The exchange differences resulting from the translation as of the reporting date, taking into account
possible hedging transactions, are recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
The nominal value of the share capital and other share components of the subsidiaries are denominated in Singapore dollars
(SGD) and in the pounds of sterling (GBP) and translated into USD using historical exchange rate; the exchange differences
resulting from this translation are recorded in the Exchange differences on translating foreign operations in the statement of
financial position.
Cross-rates GBP/USD, USD/SGD and average rate GBP/USD are taken from https://www.exchangerates.org.uk/ and closing
rate GBP/USD is taken from the site Currency Exchange Rates - International Money Transfer | Xe.com.

Revenue
The Group’s revenue comprises primary income from the provision of mobile marketing services in 2023 and 2022. Revenue
is recognized when the related services are delivered based on the specific terms of the contract. The Group uses a number of
different information technology (“IT”) systems to track certain actions as specified in customer contracts. The calculation of
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 26 -
charges for mobile marketing services is carried out automatically by the technology platform based on pre-defined key
parameters, including unit price and volume. These IT systems are complex and process large volumes of data.
Records of mobile marketing services charges are generated in an aggregated amount for each category and are manually
entered into the accounting system on a monthly basis.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured based on specific contract terms and excludes amounts collected on behalf of any third parties. Revenue
is recognized when control over service is transferred to a customer.
The following is a description of principal activities from which the Group generates its revenue.
Revenue from mobile advertising services
Revenue from mobile marketing services primarily includes the income generated as a result of providing mobile marketing
services by the Group. The Group utilizes a combination of pricing models and revenue is recognized when the related services
are delivered based on specific contract terms, which are commonly based on:
a) specified actions (i.e., cost per action (“CPA”) or other preferences agreed with advertisers), or
b) agreed rebates to be earned from certain publishers.
Specified actions
Revenue is recognized on a CPA basis once agreed actions (download, activation, registration, etc.) are performed.
Individually, none of the factors can considered presumptive or determinative, because the Group is the primary obligor
responsible for (1) identifying and contracting third-party advertisers considered as customers by the Group; (2) identifying
mobile publishers to provide mobile spaces where mobile publishers are considered as suppliers; (3) establishing prices under
the CPA model; (4) performing all billing and collection activities, including retaining credit risk; and (5) bearing sole
responsibility for the fulfillment of advertising services, the Group acts as the principal of these arrangements and therefore
recognizes the revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis.
Principal versus agent considerations — revenue from provision of mobile marketing services
Determining whether the Group is acting as a principal or as an agent in the provision of mobile marketing services requires
judgements and considerations of all relevant facts and circumstances. The Group is a principal to a transaction if the Group
obtains control over the services before they are transferred to customers. If the level of control cannot be determined, if the
Group is primarily obligated in a transaction, has latitude to establish prices and select publishers, or several but not all of these
factors are present, the Group records revenues on a gross basis. Otherwise, the Group records the net amount earned as
commissions from services provided.
Segment reporting
In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Management (chief operating decision
maker) for the purpose of resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has one reportable segment, which is
Mobile marketing business.
Mobile marketing business: this segment delivers mobile advertising services to customers globally through a Software-as-a-
Service (“SaaS”) programmatic advertising platform, top media and affiliate ad-serving platform.
No segment assets and liabilities information are provided as no such information is regularly provided to the Management for
the purpose of decision-making, resources allocation, and performance assessment.
Revenue may be disaggregated by timing of revenue recognition:
- Point in time, and
- Over time.
Notes #1 specifies information about the geographical location of the Group’s revenue from external customers. The
geographical location of customers is based on the location of the customers’ headquarters.
Cost of sales (operating expenses)
Cost of sales represents the direct expenses that are attributable to the services delivered. They consist primarily of payments
to platforms and publishers under the terms of the revenue agreements. The cost of sales can include commissions where
applicable.
Financial instruments
The Group classifies financial instruments, or their component parts, on initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial
liability, or an equity instrument in accordance with the terms of the contractual arrangement. Financial instruments are
recognised on trade date when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial instruments
are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit and loss, transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument. Financial instruments are derecognised
on the trade date when the Group is no longer a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Trade and other receivables and trade and other payables
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 27 -
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade and other
payables are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition they
are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any expected credit losses in the case of trade
receivables. If the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, for example if payment is deferred beyond normal business
terms, then it is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt
instrument.
Interest-bearing borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of
interest. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised costs using the effective interest
method, less any impairment losses.
Other financial commitments
Financial commitments that are not held for trading purpose are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method.
Goodwill and Other Purchased Intangibles
Goodwill, representing the excess of purchase price and acquisition costs over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired,
and other purchased intangibles.
The Group annually reviews the recoverability of all long-term assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable. The Group determines whether there has been an impairment by
comparing the anticipated discounted future net cash flows to the related asset’s carrying value. If an asset is considered
impaired, the asset is written down to fair value which is either determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values,
depending on the nature of the asset.
Other purchased intangibles assessment
The Group annually reviews the recoverability of all long-term assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable. The Group determines whether there has been an impairment by
comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset’s carrying value. If an asset is considered
impaired, the asset is written down to fair value which is either determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values,
depending on the nature of the asset.
Intangible fixed assets
Concessions, Intellectual Property and Licenses are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation.
Amortisation is recognized in the income statements on a straight-line over the estimated useful life as follows:
Trademarks – 10 years.
Licenses – validity period.
Programs – 5 years.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at their historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized in the income
statement in a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each item of tangible fixed assets. The minimum cost to
recognize an object as a fixed asset is 3,000 USD. The annual depreciation rates applied are:
Technical and office equipment, computers – 3 years.
Leases
All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability except for:
Leases of low value assets; and
Leases with a duration of twelve months or less.
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of contractual payments due to the lessor over the lease term, with the
discount rate determined by reference to the rate inherent in the lease unless (as is typically the case) this is not readily
determinable, in which case the Group’s incremental borrowing rate placed at the official site of the Bank of England.
Variable lease payments are only included in the measurement of the lease liability if they depend on an index or on market
rate. In such cases, the initial measurement of the lease liability assumes the variable element will remain unchanged throughout
the lease term. Other variable lease payments are expensed in the period to which they relate.
Right-of-use assets are initially measured at the amount of lease liability, reduced for any lease incentives received, and
increased for:
Lease payments made at or before commencement of the lease.
Initial direct costs incurred; and
The amount of any provision recognised where the Group is contractually required to dismantle, remove, or restore the
leased asset (typically leasehold dilapidations).
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 28 -
Subsequent to initial measurement lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate on the balance
outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the
remaining term of the lease or over the remaining economic life of the asset if, rarely, this is judged to be shorter than the lease
term. When the Group revises its estimate of the term of any lease (because, for example, it re-assesses the probability of a
lessee extension or termination option being exercised), it adjusts the carrying amount of the lease liability to reflect the
payments to be made over the revised term, which are discounted at the same discount rate that applied on lease
commencement. The carrying value of lease liabilities is similarly revised when the variable element of future lease payments
dependent on a rate or index is revised. In both cases an equivalent adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use
asset, with the revised carrying amount being amortised over the remaining (revised) lease term.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of
12 months or less and low-value assets, including IT equipment. The Group would recognise the lease payments associated
with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Receivables
Upon initial recognition the receivables are included at fair value and then valued at amortised cost. The fair value and
amortised cost equal the face value. Any provision for doubtful accounts deemed necessary is deducted. These provisions are
determined by individual assessment of the receivables. All receivables are due within one year.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form
an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose
only on the cash flow statement.
The cash flow statement from operating activities is reported using the indirect method.
Provisions
These are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, when it is probable
that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation, using a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase
in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
Deferred taxes
A deferred tax liability / asset is recognized for any differences in commercial and fiscal valuation of the Group's assets and
liabilities.
Taxation
Current tax is the tax currently payable based on the taxable profit for the year.
The Group recognises current tax assets and liabilities of entities in different jurisdictions separately as there is no legal right
of offset. Deferred tax is provided in full on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and
their tax bases, except when, at the initial recognition of the asset or liability, there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit
or loss under a business combination. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been substantially enacted
by the statement of financial position date, and that are expected to apply when the temporary difference reverses.
Tax losses available to be carried forward, and other tax credits to the Group, are recognised as deferred tax assets, to the extent
that it is probable that there will be future taxable profits against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Changes in
deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of the tax expense in the statement of comprehensive income,
except where they relate to items that are charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also
charged or credited directly to equity.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the
ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. Cost of inventory is determined on the weighted average
cost basis.
Financial income and expenses
Financing income includes forex exchange and financial expenses include bank fee.

Insurance contracts, which are not yet effective for the year ended 31 December 2023 and which have not been adopted in
these financial statements.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 29 -

beginning on or after 1 January 2024):
- Amendments to IAS 1, Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities with Covenants
- Amendments toIFRS 16, Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback

23. Financial risk management
The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks through its use of financial instruments which result from its operating
activities. All the Group’s financial instruments are classified trade and other receivables. The Group does not actively engage
in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes. The most significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed
are described below:
Credit risk
Generally, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of the financial assets recognised at
the reporting date, as summarised below:
31 December 2023
31 December 2022
Trade receivables
1,126,412
2,917,649
Prepayments
170,105
12,446
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 38 -
Total
1,296,517
2,930,095
Credit risk is the risk of financial risk to the Group if a counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
obligation. The nature of the Group’s debtor balances, the time taken for payment by clients and the associated credit risk are
dependent on the type of engagement.
The Group’s trade and other receivables are actively monitored. The ageing profit of trade receivables is monitored regularly
by Directors. Any debtors over 30 days are reviewed by Directors every month and explanations sought for any balances that
have not been recovered.
Unbilled revenue is recognised by the Group only when all conditions for revenue recognition have been met in line with the
Group’s accounting policy.
The Directors are of the opinion that there is no material credit risk at the Group level.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the situation where the Group may encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with its financial
liabilities. The Group seeks to manage financial risks to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to meet any foreseeable needs
and to invest cash assets safely and profitably.
The tables below break down the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groups based on their contractual
maturities.
The amounts disclosed in the tables below are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal
their carrying balances, because the impact of discounting is not significant.

Interest rate risk
The Group is not exposed to material interest rate risk as its liabilities are either non-interest bearing or subject to fixed interest
rates.
Foreign currency risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures. The
Group monitors exchange rate movements closely and ensures adequate funds are maintained in appropriate currencies to meet
known liabilities.
Reputational risks
The Management of the Group believes that at present there are no facts that could have a significant negative impact on the
decrease in the number of its customers due to a negative perception of the quality of services provided, adherence to the terms
of rendering services, as well as the participation of the Group in any price agreement. Accordingly, reputational risks are
assessed by the Group as insignificant.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of all financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying value.
Country risks
4 February 2022 Russia declared a war operation in Ukraine and launched full-scale military invasion., multilateral sanctions
and restrictions were imposed on work with certain Russian legal entities and individuals. These circumstances caused
unpredictable volatility in the stock and currency markets, in energy prices, general price level, the Bank of Russia’s key
interest rate and restrictions on flow of certain groups of goods. It is expected that these events may affect the business of
companies in various countries and industries.
One of the Directors of the Group is a citizen of the Russian Federation. He is not subject to the sanctions imposed by the
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 39 -
United Kingdom and other countries. Since 2 August 2022, the Group does not provide to and receive services from Russian
companies.
The Management analyzes the current situation and possible solutions. At present, the duration of these events cannot be
predicted and their impact on the future financial position and performance of the Group cannot be reliably assessed.
Other risks
The industry risk is currently assessed as low, and the volume of advertising on the Internet is growing. However, it should be
taken into consideration that the industry is affected by changing legislation on the regulation of the advertising services
provision and compliance with information security of data. Also, the Group business depends on the availability, performance
and reliability of internet, mobile and other infrastructures (speed, data capacity and security) that are not under the Group
control.
The Group makes every effort to comply with the requirements of the legislation and to maintenance of a reliability for
providing advertising internet services.

26. Reverse acquisition
On 30 September 2022, the Company acquired the entire issued share capital of Vox Capital Ltd and its subsidiaries, a private
company incorporated in United Kingdom, by way of a share-for-share exchange. Although the transaction resulted in the Vox
Capital Ltd becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, the transaction constitutes a reverse acquisition in as much
as the shareholders Vox Capital Ltd owned, post transaction, a majority of the issued ordinary shares of the Company.
In substance, the shareholders of the Vox Capital Ltd acquired a controlling interest in the Company and the transaction has
therefore been accounted for as a reverse acquisition.
Accordingly, this reverse acquisition does not constitute a business combination and was accounted for in accordance with
IFRS 2 Share-based payment and IFRIC guidance, with the difference between the equity value given up by the Vox Capital
Ltd shareholders and the share of the fair value of net assets gained by the Vox Capital Ltd shareholders charged to the statement
of comprehensive income as the cost of acquiring an AIM quoted listing in the form of a share based payment expense.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
- 41 -
In accordance with reverse acquisition accounting principles, these consolidated financial statements represent a continuation
of the consolidated financial statements of Vox Capital Ltd and include:
a. the assets and liabilities of Vox Capital Ltd at their pre-acquisition carrying amounts and the results for both periods; and
b. the assets and liabilities of the Company as at 30 September 2021 and as at 31 December 2022.
Share-base-payment components of the reverse acquisition transaction are measured under IFRS 2. Equity-settled transactions
are measured at the fair value of the assets and services acquired if this fair value is reliably determinable. Fair value of The
Company assets includes identifiable net assets and possibly unidentified assets or services, such as costs of listing.
The fair value of net assets of Vertu Capital Ltd at the date of acquisition was as follows:

27. Capital management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to:
- Safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns to shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders, and

Going concern
At the reporting date, the Company had cash balance of £314.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to be
able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due in the foreseeable future.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and
IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) interpretations.
The financial statements are presented in British Pound Sterling (£).
The notes are an integral part of the financial statements.
Reporting period
These financial statements represent the financial reporting period for the Company from January 1 till December 31, 2023.
General
An asset is disclosed in the statement of financial position when it is probable that the expected future economic benefits
attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured. A liability is disclosed in the
statement of financial position when it is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic
benefits and the amount of the obligations can be measured with sufficient reliability.
If a transaction results in transfer of future economic benefits and/or when all risks associated with assets or liabilities have
been transferred to a third party, the asset or liability is no longer included in the statement of financial position. Assets and
liabilities are not included in the statement of financial position if economic benefits are not probable or cannot be measured
with sufficient reliability.
The income and expenses are accounted for during the period to which they relate. Revenue is recognized when control over
service is transferred to a customer.
The Management is required to form an opinion and make estimates and assumptions for assets, liabilities, income, and
expenses. The actual result may differ from these estimates. The estimates and the underlying assumptions are constantly
assessed. Revisions are recognised during a corresponding revision period as well as any future periods affected by the revision.
The nature of these estimates and judgements, including related assumptions, is disclosed in the notes to corresponding items
in the financial statement.
Investments

cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any
impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognized immediately in profit or loss (IAS 36 Impairment of Assets).
Impairment losses are reflected in non-operating expenses of Statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income.
Reversals of impairment losses are reflected in non-operating income.
VOX VALOR CAPITAL LIMITED
PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
- 48 -
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the
entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
An associate is an entity, being neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture, in which the company holds a long-term interest and
where the company has significant influence. The company considers that it has significant influence where it has the power
to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the associate.
Entities in which the company has a long-term interest and shares control under a contractual arrangement are classified as
jointly controlled entities.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form
an integral part of the Company’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose
only on the cash flow statement.
The cash flow statement from operating activities is reported using the indirect method.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial instruments are recognised on the statement of financial position when the Company becomes a
party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition
depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them.
The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the
classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and re-evaluates this classification at every reporting date.
As at the reporting date, the Company did not have any financial assets subsequently measured at fair value.
Financial liabilities
Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at
amortised cost, where applicable, using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield
basis.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or
they expire.
Taxation
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the
income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other periods and it further
excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred income tax is provided for using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax
basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax liabilities are
recognised in full for all temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary
differences carried forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will
be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused losses can
be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is assessed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that is probable
that future taxable profits will allow the deferred income tax asset to be recovered.
Operating segments
The operating segments identifies based on internal reporting for decision-making. The Company is operated as one business
with key decisions irrespective of the geography where work for clients is carried out. The Management (chief operating
decision maker) considers that The Company has one operating segment.
Standards and interpretations issued but not yet applied

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks through its use of financial instruments which result from its operating
activities. All the Company’s financial instruments are classified trade and other receivables. The Company does not actively
engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes. The most significant financial risks to which the Company
is exposed are described below:
Credit risk
The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to deposits with banks. The Company manages its deposits with banks or
financial institutions by monitoring credit ratings and limiting the aggregate risk to any individual counterparty. The
Company’s exposure to credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is considered low as the bank accounts are with banks with
high credit ratings.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the situation where the Company may encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with its
financial liabilities. The Company seeks to manage financial risks to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to meet any
foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitably.
Interest rate risk
The Company is not exposed to material interest rate risk as its liabilities are either non-interest bearing or subject to fixed
interest rates.
Reputational risks
The Management of the Company believes that at present there are no facts that could have a significant negative impact on
the decrease in the number of its customers due to a negative perception of the quality of services provided, adherence to the
terms of rendering services, as well as the participation of The Company in any price agreement. Accordingly, reputational
risks are assessed by the Company as insignificant.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of all financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying value.
Country risks
4 February 2022 Russia declared a war operation in Ukraine and launched full-scale military invasion, multilateral sanctions
and restrictions were imposed on work with certain Russian legal entities and individuals. These circumstances caused
unpredictable volatility in the stock and currency markets, in energy prices, general price level, the Bank of Russia’s key

interest rate and restrictions on flow of certain groups of goods. It is expected that these events may affect the business of
companies in various countries and industries.
One of the Directors of the Company is a citizen of the Russian Federation. He is not subject to the sanctions imposed by the
United Kingdom and other countries. The Company does not provide to and receive services from Russian companies.
The Management analyzes the current situation and possible solutions. At present, the duration of these events cannot be
predicted and their impact on the future financial position and performance of the Company cannot be reliably assessed.
Other risks
The industry risk is currently assessed as low, and the volume of advertising on the Internet is growing. However, it should be
taken into consideration that the industry is affected by changing legislation on the regulation of the advertising services
provision and compliance with information security of data. Also, The Company business depends on the availability,
performance and reliability of internet, mobile and other infrastructures (speed, data capacity and security) that are not under
