NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
QTec Analytics Limited is a private company incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act. The address of the registered office is shown on the Company Information page.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
|
|
Associates and joint ventures
|
An entity is treated as an associated undertaking where the Company exercises significant influence in that it has the power to participate in the operating and financial policy decisions.
In the accounts, interests in associated undertakings are held at cost less impairment.
As at 31 December 2022, the Company had net liabilities of $12,996,331 (2021: $3,974,699). The net liabilities mainly comprised of borrowings raised from the Company’s shareholders for the purchase of investments in an associated company. The cash position of the Company was $42,717 as at year end. Between January 2023 and July 2024, the company raised a total of $2,021,336 in additional funding from its shareholders and had a cash balance of $89,306 as at end of 12 August 2024.
The Company’s operating budget over the 2025 financial year is estimated at a total of approximately $307,000 and comprises mainly of personnel costs, and legal and professional expenses. The Company does not generate any revenues and relies entirely on shareholders’ funding for its liquidity.
The directors have assessed that additional funding is required from shareholders in order for the company to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be successful in raising further funding from the shareholders. While the directors believe that the shareholders will provide the required additional funding over the going concern period, no formal agreements to this effect have been finalized.
As the Company is reliant on additional funding from the shareholders which is not guaranteed, the Directors acknowledge that these events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Directors consider that the funding will be forthcoming and therefore the going concern basis of preparation is deemed appropriate. The financial statements do not include any adjustments should the going concern basis of preparation be inappropriate.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional and presentational currency is USD.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

In November 2022, the company purchased new investments in Voyager Labs Limited for $2.8m in the
form of convertible loan notes. The loan notes have a maturity date of 31 December 2024, and attract
interest rate of 8% which accrues daily over 365 days a year and compounds annually, from the date of
disbursement of the principal. At conversion, payment of the accrued interest shall be satisfied by
conversion of the accrued interest on the same basis as conversion of the principal loan amount.
Following management’s impairment review of the investment in shares of $5.2m and in convertible loans of $2.8m, conditions were identified that indicated that an impairment provision should be made, as a result of the operating and financing circumstances that Voyager labs is currently experiencing, and given that the investment has not been yielding any returns.
