About Codex Acquisitions plc 

Codex Acquisitions plc ("Codex" or the "Company") is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) seeking suitable acquisition targets in the clean and renewable energy sector.  

In pursuance of that strategy the Company announced in December 2023, that it entered into non-binding heads of terms (as amended in June 2024) to acquire the entire issued share capital of Technologies New Energy S.A. ("TNE"), a sociedade anónima incorporated in Portugal operating in the renewable energy sector.

This Proposed Acquisition is expected to constitute a reverse takeover transaction and any consideration for the Acquisition to be wholly share-based via the issuance of new ordinary shares of nominal value 10 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") (the "Proposed Acquisition").

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

I am pleased to announce the Company's interim results for the period ended 30 June 2024.

 

Financial review

The Company incurred a loss of £84,000 in the period (£29,000 for period ended 30 June 2023). The majority of this comprises of expenditure relating to maintaining the Company's listing on the standard segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority, which transitioned to the Equity Shares (Transition) category on 29 July 2024,  and to trading on the main market for listed securities of London Stock Exchange plc.

 

The Company had a cash position of £440,000 as at 30 June 2024 (£604,000 at 30 June 2023). The Company had a basic loss per share of 0.986 pence.

 

Outlook

Codex is now focusing on completing the Proposed Acquisition with TNE, which is expected to ultimately lead to a reverse takeover to complete our mission as an investment company and the start of TNE's future as a listed company.

On behalf of the board of directors of the Company (the "Board" or "Directors"), I would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff and advisers for their hard work as well as our shareholders for their continued support.

 

We look forward to updating shareholders on our progress in due course.

NOTES TO THE COMPANY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

1.   General information and basis of preparation

The principal activity of the Company is to identify potential companies, businesses or asset(s) in the clean and renewable energy sector that will increase shareholder value. As part of its acquisition strategy the Company announced in December 2023, that it entered into non-binding heads of terms (as amended in June 2024) to acquire the entire issued share capital of TNE - Technologies New Energy S.A. ("TNE"), a sociedade anónima incorporated in Portugal operating in the renewable energy sector.

The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated and registered in England and Wales as a public limited company. The Company's registered office is 9th Floor, 107 Cheapside, London EC2V 6DN, United Kingdom. The Company's registered number is 13672588.

 

2.   Accounting policies

 

Basis of preparation

 

The Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards. The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise stated. The Financial Statements are prepared in pounds Sterling and presented to the nearest pound.

 

The preparation of the Company financial statements in conformity with UK-adopted international accounting standards requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the Directors to exercise their judgment in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies.

 

In the opinion of the management, the interim unaudited financial information includes all adjustments considered necessary for fair and consistent presentation of this financial information.

 

Going concern

The Company financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors have assessed the Company's ability to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The operations are currently being financed by issuances of new equity. The Company is reliant on the continuing support from its shareholders and the expected support of future shareholders. The Company financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Company were not to continue as a going concern.

 

2.   Segmental analysis

 

In the opinion of the Directors, the Company is primarily organised into a single operating segment. This is consistent with the Company's internal reporting to the chief operating decision maker. Separate segmental disclosures have therefore not been included.


 

3.   Loss per share

 

Basic loss per share is based on the net loss for the period of £83,845 attributable to equity holders related to the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period of 8,500,000.

 

The following reflects the loss and share data used in the basic loss per share computations:
