Chairman's Statement

Introduction

The year under review marked the first full year following the sale of Stewart Travel Limited in October 2018. During the year, the Group has devoted its efforts to the reorganisation of its finances, the reduction of its cost base and, most importantly, its Project in Crete.

I am pleased to inform shareholders that the steps taken both during the year and in subsequent months will lead to a further improvement in the results before the expected anchor joint ventures are agreed.

Meanwhile, although the unpredictable impact of Covid-19 has affected the current year and will affect the future in a number of ways, it should be remembered that the Project is a long term development and, as such, does not rely on short term factors to generate value.

Financial Review

The results for the year show an improvement over the previous year despite the impact of largely "one off" finance charges related to the Placing and Open Offer in May 2019, as well as to some residual effects of the sale of Stewart Travel Limited. Finance charges amounted to £1,278,000 compared to £648,000 in 2018 whilst the overall loss was reduced to £2,077,000 from £3,022,000.

Operating expenses in the year increased to £799,000 from £602,000. The increase of £197,000 was as result of a change in the accounting treatment of management salaries and related charges, with certain duties being more corporate than Project related, which increased Operating expenses by £264,000 but was then offset by a reduction of £67,000 in other costs.

The increase in Total equity of £1,661,000 during the year to £42,257,000 from £40,596,000 arose largely through the Placing and Open Offer, which included the conversion by directors of £640,000 of debt into shares issued at 3 pence per share.

The Project and Greece

The trends I mentioned last year in the increasing activity and interest in the Greek property market, aided by the new Governments' focus on tourism and development has led to a new dynamic in inward investment into Greece and, in particular, toward Crete, the largest of the Greek islands. Crete was recently voted 3rdbest destination worldwide in the Trip Advisor travellers' choice awards 2020.

These trends continued throughout 2019 and into 2020 until the impact of Covid-19 and "Lockdown" in Greece, where the rules have been particularly strict. At present, however, it appears that these rules are being eased considerably.

Although Covid-19 has stopped the 2020 season in its tracks the Greek tourist industry is expecting 2021 to represent a major step towards a new normality.

One of the changes that Covid-19 has led to is a perceived change at the top end of the market, at which the Project is focused. Indeed there is a suggestion that going forward, space and the option and ability to maintain social distancing are attracting enhanced values and the Project is ideally suited to these changing requirements.

We have made significant progress during the year on a number of fronts. As I wrote last year, the Company, together with its architectural and design team, has continued to progress the Project, which has led to a number of new initiatives.

As discussions and negotiations with potential partners progress, the Company has tried to ensure that its aims and ambitions are matched, as far as possible, by those of these potential partners.

Chairman's Statement (continued)

The Project and Greece (continued)

As I have stated in my Updates, the impact of Covid-19 has been to slow down the rate of progress in a number of the discussions but I believe this to be temporary.

The Public Welfare Ecclesiastical Foundation Panagia Akrotiriani ("the Foundation") is a key partner and I am delighted with the ongoing positive dialogue that has taken place during the year, to ensure we remain aligned in achieving our shared vision of a sustainable development that is sympathetic to the beauty and history of the Cavo Sidero peninsular and delivers long term certainty to all parties.

It is again worth reminding investors of the scope and scale of the Project:

  • It has anun-appealable Presidential Decree granting outline planning consent
  • It has been granted "strategic investment" status by the Greek government
  • It is the largest private estate in the Eastern Mediterranean
  • It is in a UNESCO designated geopark - an area of outstanding natural beauty and spectacular unending sea view

Post Balance Sheet Events

Since the year end, the Company, along with most others, has suffered from the effects of Covid-19 and the Lockdown. I have endeavoured to keep shareholders informed of progress through recent Updates and I am pleased to say that we have now reached "in principle" agreements with both existing and new lenders/investors to replace the current finance arrangements. I will keep shareholders informed thereon as we move forward.

Outlook

With the impending easing of Lockdown restrictions I expect to provide further updates in the next few months as all our efforts are focused on ensuring that the Group and its stakeholders reap the benefit of the years of hard work that have gone before.

Strategic Report

The directors present their Strategic Report and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2019.

Review of business

A review of the Group's business is given in the Chairman's Statement on page 2.

The sale of the travel business was completed on 9 October 2018 and the results for the year ended were presented in accordance with IFRS 5. The net profit of the travel business for the year ended 31 October 2018 was of £942,458, which was shown as profit from discontinued operations.

Total equity as at 31 October 2019 was £42,257,000 (2018: £40,596,000).

Since a major part of the Company's expenditure is in Euros the outcome of the ongoing negotiations regarding Brexit may have an effect on future foreign expenditure (see also note 1).

Although not having used key performance indicators for the Project in the past, the Board is of the opinion that the granting of un-appealable outline planning consent, as referred to in the Chairman's Statement may be regarded as an indicator in understanding the development, performance or position of that operation.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The Group's key risks currently remain centred around the Project. The Group has an ongoing requirement to raise capital to finance its working capital. As has been the case for the past several years, the Group is in continual discussions with a variety of individuals and commercial parties regarding the provision of funding to enable the Group's current and future obligations and requirements to be met. These discussions are at varying stages of development and the Board is confident that all necessary funding will be forthcoming within a timescale which will enable the Group to move forward and provide a return to shareholders (see also note 1).

As the Project now moves towards its implementation stage, the normal risks associated with a development of its size and nature will apply. These include, inter alia, detailed planning consents, availability of project finance, construction costs and market demand.

Going concern

The Board is confident that the value of the Group's asset in Crete, combined with its capital raising ability and the future prospects for development in other areas of activity, justifies the conclusion that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis (as described further in note 1). The Group has, in principle, agreed terms with current lenders to replace the current finance arrangements to support the Group moving forward.

The directors envisage that any joint venture or partnership arrangements will preserve the nature of the Group's long term commitment to the Project.

Strategic Report (continued)

Corporate Governance

As an Alternative Investment Market ("AIM") company Minoan Group Plc is not required to comply with the UK Corporate Governance Code, which applies only to premium listed UK companies and adherence to which requires commitment of significant resources and cost. However, the Board of Minoan Group Plc has chosen to commit to the adoption of the Quoted Companies Alliance Corporate Governance Code.

Corporate social responsibility

The Group has demonstrated its social responsibilities through its iterative approach to the evolution of the Project, which has involved a transparent process and extensive consultation with stakeholders. The Project design embraces the principles of the five capitals of sustainable development (i.e. natural, human, social, manufactured and financial) to ensure that all related matters have been taken into account. Thus the more usual concerns related to the protection of the environment, flora, fauna, hydrogeology and the ecology generally have drawn in considerations of wider issues including social, cultural, human and economic matters as well as those related to the extensive use of renewable energy and many other items contributing to a healthy carbon footprint. The Project is strictly focused on the long term restoration and preservation of the environment as a whole and puts in place a sustainable management plan, involving local representatives and experts, to ensure a robust, pro-active management system is implemented aimed at protecting the area for future generations.

In conducting its business the Group ensured that it was compliant with all appropriate regulations, including those applicable to the protection of clients' funds.

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Independent Auditor's Report to the members of Minoan Group Plc

Our opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Minoan Group PLC ("the Group") for the year ended 31 October 2019 which comprise; the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated and parent company's statement of financial position, the consolidated and parent company's statement of changes in equity, the consolidated and company's statement of cash flows and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union.

In our opinion:

  • The financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and the parent company's affairs as at 31 October 2019 and of the group's loss for the year then ended;
  • The group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union;
  • The parent company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union and as applied in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006;
  • The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report below. We are 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 applied to listed entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. 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.

Material uncertainty relating to going concern

We draw attention to the disclosures made in the Strategic Report and in note 1 to the financial statements concerning the uncertainty regarding the group's need to secure project finance in order to bring its Crete project to fruition and to continue as a going concern. As stated in these disclosures, these events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to note 21 of the financial statements, which describes the material uncertainties surrounding the going concern for the group, due to the impact of post balance sheet events. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Independent Auditor's Report to the members of Minoan Group Plc (continued)

Overview of our audit approach

Key audit matters

Capitalisation and valuation of inventories, being the Crete

project costs.

Going concern.

Materiality

Overall materiality is £400,000 (2018: £397,500) being the

average of 10% of the result before tax and 1% of gross assets.

Overall materiality in the prior year was based on the average

of 10% of the result before tax and 1% of gross assets.

An overview of the scope of our audit

The group consists of the parent company and its subsidiaries. It largely operates through two trading subsidiary undertakings which were considered to be significant components for the purposes of the group financial statements. The financial statements consolidate these entities together with other non-trading subsidiary undertakings. As part of designing our group audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In establishing our overall approach to the group audit, we determined the type of work that needed to be performed in respect of each subsidiary or entity. This consisted of us carrying out a full audit of all significant components of the group.

An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of:

  • whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the company's circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed;
  • the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and
  • the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We have designed our audit approach to identify possible fraud in relation to the associated fraud risk of the group. We consider the most likely areas where fraud might arise to be within the valuation of the project costs and in relation to incorrect revenue recognition. Our approach to these areas has been addressed within the Key audit matters section.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in the auditors' professional judgement, were of most significance in the 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. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In arriving at our opinion, the key audit matters considered were as follows

9

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Independent Auditor's Report to the members of Minoan Group Plc (continued)

Risk 1:Capitalisation and valuation of Crete Project costs

The group inventories, held in respect of the Crete project, represent the most significant asset on the statement of financial position totalling £45.8 million as at 31 October 2019 (2018: £45.4 million). There is a risk that inappropriate expenditure may be capitalised that is not in accordance with IAS 2. Furthermore, given that the Presidential Decree has been issued granting planning consent and that the Directors appear to be actively marketing the property, any lack of buyer interest in the property would be an indication of impairment. Therefore, there is a significant risk over the valuation of these inventories.

In this area, our audit procedures included:

  • Testing a sample of capitalised costs in the year to ensure accuracy and appropriateness for capitalisation as project costs under IAS 2;
  • Reviewing correspondence and other third party documentation in relation to the project to confirm that the expected value of the project is in excess of the costs to date;
  • Reviewing and assessing the marketing activities for the site post grant of the Presidential Decree;

From the work performed, we did not identify any transactions which indicated that capitalised costs were incorrectly stated.

Risk 2 -Going concern of the Group

Several risks were identified surrounding the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Attention has been drawn to these matters in notes 1 and 21 of the financial statements.

In this area, our audit procedures included:

  • We obtained post year endcash-flow forecasts, bank statements, and statutory documentation;
  • We assessed the level of equity financing received during the six months after the balance sheet date, and whether this was sufficient to ensure the group's liquidity;
  • We reviewed the Group's refinancing of debt taking place post year end
  • We obtained the Board of Directors' assessment of the groups' going concern;
  • We reviewed the disclosures included within these statements and confirmed that they were in line with regulatory reporting standards.

From the work performed, we did not identify any instances from which to conclude that the disclosure or accounting treatment was incorrectly stated.

10

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Independent Auditor's Report to the members of Minoan Group Plc (continued)

Our application of materiality

We set certain thresholds for materiality. These help us to establish transactions and misstatements that are significant to the financial statements as a whole, to determine the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually on balances and on the financial statements as a whole.

We determined the materiality for the group financial statements as a whole to be £400,000 (2018: £397,500), calculated with reference to a benchmark of the Crete project costs (£45.8 million) included within the gross assets, the overall materiality calculation was the average of 10% of the result before tax and 1% of gross assets. This is the threshold above which missing or incorrect information in the financial statements is considered to have an impact on the decision making of users. We determined the materiality for the company as a whole to be £200,000 (2018: £171,000), calculated with reference to a benchmark of total company expenses.

Other information

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information

included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on

the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

  • the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
  • the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

  • adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
  • the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
  • certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
  • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Independent Auditor's Report to the members of Minoan Group Plc (continued)

Responsibilities of Directors

As explained more fully in the Directors' responsibilities statement, set out on pages 6 and 7, 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 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 company 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 consolidated 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.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our

auditor's report.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC interpretations (collectively IFRS), and with those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS, as adopted by the European Union. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the group. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand, unless stated otherwise.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention except for where financial instruments are stated at fair value.

Adoption of new and revised Standards

The International Accounting Standards Board and IFRIC have issued the following new and revised standards and interpretations with an effective date after the date of these financial statements, which have been endorsed and issued by the European Union at 31 October 2019:

Standard

Details of amendment

Effective date

IFRS 3

Business Combinations

Clarification that when an entity obtains control of a

1 January

business that is a joint operation, it is required to remeasure

2019

previously held interests in that business.

IFRS 3

Business Combinations

Amendments to clarify the definition of a business.

1 January

2020

IAS 12

Income Taxes

Clarification that all income tax consequences of dividends

1 January

should be recognised in profit or loss, regardless how the

2019

tax arises.

IAS 19 Employee Benefits

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

If a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs, it is

1 January

now mandatory that the current service cost and the net

2019

interest for the period after the remeasurement are

determined using the assumptions used for the

remeasurement.

The interpretation specifies how an entity should reflect the

1 January

effects of uncertainties in accounting for income taxes.

2019

The directors anticipate that the adoption of these standards in future periods will have no material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Going concern

The directors have considered the financial and commercial position of the Group in relation to its project in Crete (the "Project"). In particular, the directors have reviewed the matters referred to below.

Following the unanimous approval of a Plenum of the Greek Council of State, the highest court in Greece, the Presidential Decree granting land use approval for the Project was issued on 11 March 2016 and was published in the Government Gazette. The planning rules for the Project are now enshrined in law. The appeals lodged against the Presidential Decree have been rejected by the Greek Supreme Court.

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Going concern (continued)

Accordingly, the directors consider that they will conclude further Project joint venture agreements in the near term. In addition, the directors are considering other options which would have a major beneficial impact on

the Group's resources.

In addition to specific Project related matters as noted above, and as has been the case in the past, the Group continues to need to raise capital in order to meet its existing finance and working capital requirements. While the directors consider that any necessary funds will be raised as required, the ability of the Company to raise these funds is, by its nature, uncertain.

Having taken these matters into account, the directors consider that the going concern basis of preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries as at 31 October 2019 using uniform accounting policies. The Group's policy is to consolidate the result of subsidiaries acquired in the year from the date of acquisition to the Group's next accounting reference date. Intra-group balances are eliminated on consolidation.

Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration for each acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values of the assets given, liabilities incurred and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquired business. Acquisition related costs are recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as incurred.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted financial accounting principles requires the directors to make critical accounting estimates and judgements that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustments to the carrying value of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

  • in capitalising the costs directly attributable to the Project (see inventories below), and continuing to recognise goodwill relating to the Project, the directors are of the opinion that the Project will be brought to fruition and that the carrying value of inventories and goodwill is recoverable; and
  • as set out above, the directors have exercised judgement in concluding that the company and group is a going concern.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on acquisitions represents the difference between the fair value of the net assets acquired and the consideration paid and is recognised as an asset (see note 7).

Goodwill arising on acquisition is allocated to cash-generating units. The recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or on such other occasions that events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and is not subsequently reversed.

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognised impairment loss.

Depreciation is provided in order to write off the cost of each asset, less its estimated residual value, over its estimated useful life on a straight line basis as follows:

Plant and equipment:

3 to 5 years

Fixtures and fittings:

3 years

Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount.

Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less any impairment deemed necessary.

Inventories

Inventories represent the actual costs of goods and services directly attributable to the acquisition and development of the Project and are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

24

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Foreign currency

A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition in Sterling, by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

At the end of the reporting period:

  • foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate;
  • non-monetaryitems that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and
  • non-monetaryitems that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous annual financial statements are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised to other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised to other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.

Cash flows arising from transactions in a foreign currency are recorded in Sterling, by applying to the foreign currency amount to the exchange rate between the Sterling and the foreign currency at the date of the cash flow.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and short-term deposits, with a maturity of less than three months, held with banks.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and shown less any provision for amounts considered irrecoverable. They are subsequently measured at an amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less irrecoverable provision for receivables.

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

25

Minoan Group Plc (Registered number: 03770602)

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Loans

Loan borrowings are recognised initially at fair value net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost and any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised as a borrowing cost over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations

Where an asset, or disposal group (an asset together with related liabilities), is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction and not through continuing use, and an active plan has been entered into to dispose of the asset or disposal group, it is reclassified as held for sale. On reclassification, the asset is measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Any losses on re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss.

Share-based payments

The Group has a Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") in which any director or employee selected by the remuneration committee may participate. Awards under the LTIP have been granted on the basis that certain performance conditions will be met. The LTIP expired on 31 December 2019.

The Company has also granted options and warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares. The fair values of the LTIP awards, options and warrants are calculated using the Black-Scholes and Binomial option pricing models as appropriate at the grant date. The fair value of LTIP awards and options are charged to profit or loss over their vesting periods, with a corresponding entry recognised in equity. This charge does not involve any cash payment by the Group.

Where warrants are issued in conjunction with a loan instrument, the fair value of the warrants forms part of the total finance cost associated with that instrument and is released to profit or loss through finance costs over the term of that instrument using the effective interest method.

Pensions

Loyalward Limited operates a stakeholder pension scheme for its employees. Contributions payable to the pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Taxation

Current taxes, where applicable, are based on the results shown in the financial statements and are calculated according to local tax rules using tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, by the statement of financial position date and taking into account deferred taxation. Deferred tax is computed using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting, nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will arise against which the temporary differences will be utilised.

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets and liabilities arising in the same tax jurisdiction are offset.

The Group is entitled to a tax deduction for amounts treated as compensation on exercise of certain employee share options. As explained under "Share-based payments" above, a compensation expense is recorded in the Group's statement of comprehensive income over the period from the grant date to the vesting date of the relevant options. As there is a temporary difference between the accounting and tax bases a deferred tax asset is recorded. The deferred tax asset arising is calculated by comparing the estimated amount of tax deduction to be obtained in the future (based on the Company's share price at the statement of financial position date) with the cumulative amount of the compensation expense recorded in the statement of comprehensive income. If the amount of estimated future tax deduction exceeds the cumulative amount of the remuneration expense at the statutory rate, the excess is recorded directly in equity against retained earnings.

3.Segmental information

The Group strategy and growth objectives necessitate the building of an associated infrastructure. The Group considers it appropriate to identify separately the corporate development division together with costs related to acquisitions. Accordingly, the Group is organised into two divisions (2018: three divisions), both by business segment and geographical location:

  • the luxury resorts division, currently being the development of a luxury resort in Crete, which includes the central administration costs of the Group and which is a continuing operation;
  • the corporate development division (UK) as described above, which is a continuing operation.

The information presented below is consistent with how information is presented to the Board, with the

Group's accounting policies and with the geographical location of the relevant divisions.

6 Loss per share

Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to the equity holders of a company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting basic earnings per share to assume the conversion of all potential dilutive ordinary shares. As the Group is loss making, there are no dilutive instruments in issue, and therefore the basic loss per share and diluted loss per share are the same. The weighted average number of shares used in calculating basic and diluted loss per share for the year ended 31 October 2019 was 338,627,016 (31 October 2018: 222,467,332).

10 Inventories

Consolidated

Inventories at 31 October 2019 amounted to £45,848,000 (31 October 2018: £45,381,000), comprising costs associated with acquiring and developing the site in Crete, planning and other design costs.

The development site of the Project is to be leased from the Public Welfare Ecclesiastical Foundation Panagia Akrotiriani ("the Foundation") for an initial 40 year period following contract activation which will follow the relevant authorities approving the land planning and land uses for the Project. The Group has an option over a further 40 years. An amount of £3.9 million is payable to the Foundation on contract activation, plus ongoing royalties earned on revenue generated by the development (see also note 18).

In particular, the directors have considered the current value of the Group's overall interest in the Project and its progress and are of the opinion that the Project site has longer term value in excess of the carrying value of inventories.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 October 2019

15 Financial instruments and risk management

The Group's financial instruments comprise borrowings, cash and various items such as trade receivables and

trade payables that arise directly from its operations.

It is, and has been throughout the year under review, the Group's policy that no trading in financial instruments

shall be undertaken. There have been no substantive changes in the group exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure from previous periods.

The main risks arising from the Group's financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and foreign

currency risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Group's management of working capital and the financial charges and principal repayments on its debt instruments. It is the risks that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.

The Group maintains sufficient funds in local currency for operational liquidity. The Board considers liquidity risk at Board meetings through the monitoring of cash levels and detailed cash forecasts. Funding to date has been obtained principally through the issue of equity shares as required, either for cash or in settlement of liabilities. The Group has also issued loan agreements which may be settled by the issue of shares. See note 1 for further information relating to current liquidity and funding risk.

All financial liabilities are non-derivative and fall due within one year (see note 12).

In order to complete the development of the Project, the Group will require substantial additional financing. It is the directors' current intention to develop the Project in such a way as to minimise or eliminate the need for further equity financing. It is intended that this will be achieved through utilising joint venture arrangements and debt project finance.

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risks arise when individual Group entities enter into transactions denominated in a currency

other than their functional currency. The Group's policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle

liabilities denominated in their functional currency with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency. Where group entities have liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency, cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within the Group.

The Group has one overseas trading subsidiary, Loyalward Hellas S.A., which operates in Greece and whose revenues and expenses are denominated almost exclusively in Euros. The Group finances Loyalward Hellas S.A. via Euro transfers from Loyalward Limited as required. The amount transferred ensures that the Euro balance held by Loyalward Hellas S.A. at each period end is not material. All UK companies hold cash in UK pounds Sterling only. The Sterling and Euro cash balances attract interest at floating rates.

Of the Group's current assets, excluding the project costs capitalised, less than 1% is held in Euros, the remainder being held in Sterling. Of the Group's current liabilities, less than 2% is held in Euros, with the remainder held in Sterling.

Short-term receivables and payables

Short-term receivables and payables have been excluded from the following disclosures.

Interest rate risk

The Group finances its operations through a mixture of equity and borrowings. The Group has historically borrowed in Sterling only.

The Group's liabilities, which are all denominated in sterling, are as follows:

The Board has determined that realistic fluctuations in interest rates will not have a significant impact on financial liabilities.

The Group has no derivatives or financial instruments other than those disclosed above. There is no material difference between the book value and the fair value of the Group's financial assets and liabilities at 31 October 2019 and at 31 October 2018.

Warrants

The following warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares in the Company have been issued in accordance with the terms of the loan facility agreement with Hillside International Holdings Limited:

During the year the expiry date of the existing warrants was extended to 9 October 2023 and the exercise price of these warrants was amended from 8 pence per share to 3.5 pence per share following a Broker Offer. During the year following a Placing, Open Offer and shares issued to satisfy liabilities, the following warrants were issued: 7,438,520 with an exercise price of 2.5 pence per share and an expiry date of 9 October 2023, 2,522,182 with an exercise price of 2.75p per share and an expiry date of 9 October 2023, 17,633,132 with an exercise price of 2.75p per share and an expiry date of 12 October 2023, 3,636,667, 1,143,590 with an exercise price of 9p per share and an expiry date of 12 October 2023.

These modifications etc. resulted in an increase of £264,000 in the fair value of the warrants. This has been spread, along with the existing fair value, across the life of the loan on an amortised cost basis. The modification was valued using Black-Scholes method.

Other than as stated in note 10, the Group has no other capital or operating commitments.

19 Operating lease commitments

The Group has no future minimum lease commitments in respect of non-cancellable operating leases.

20 Shareholder Loyalty Scheme

The land on which the Group's Project in Crete will be constructed is held on a long lease and, as a result, any properties offered to purchasers will be on an equivalent title. Since inception, as part of the Group's financing arrangements and as a potential reward for loyalty for staff and others, notably through the Shareholder Loyalty Scheme which was placed under review in 2011, the Group offered discounts to potential purchasers of properties in the Project. The properties range from apartments with fractional/shared ownership and apartments and villas, which may or may not be part of a "serviced offering". The potential sums involved are not material in the context of the Project as a whole.

21 Events after the reporting date

Following share issues of 15,767,331 ordinary shares at 2.75p per share on 10 December 2019 and 2,745,455 ordinary shares at 2.75p on 3 April 2020, a total of 6,825,002 warrants were issued with an exercise price of 2.75p per share and an expiry date of 12 October 2023.

Post balance sheet, the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the Group's operations. This may affect the timeline for the completion of the Cretan Project but the Project is, in any event, a long term development. The Group's ability to secure equity financing has also been affected in recent months, due to the global economy being largely impacted by the pandemic. But, as the pandemic abates, the Board of Directors is confident that the Group can continue on its path to the monetisation of its investment in Crete.
