Directors Statement
Introduction
ChallengerX plc (the "Company" or "ChallengerX") is an investment company quoted
on the Aquis Stock Exchange ("AQSE") Growth Market. The Company was incorporated
on 7 June 2021 and its shares were admitted to trading on 23 December 2021.
Activities during the periods
The company continued to advance its development of a platform for the promotion
and marketing of sports clubs in both a traditional and non-traditional way. In
particular the company worked hard on adding to its offerings for the upcoming
soccer seasons starting in the Autumn.
In February 2023 the Company announced it had raised a total of GBP 250,000
(gross) from Aalto Capital AB, through the issue of 55,555,556 new ordinary
shares pursuant to a subscription letter. The payment relating to the fundraise
hasn't yet been fully received by the Company. The outstanding amount at 30 June
2023 of £168,000 is included in "Trade and other receivables" on the Statement
of Financial Position. As at the date of this report, the Company has still only
received £82,000. The Company is in ongoing conversations with the investor to
receive the remaining balance. The Managing Director of Aalto unfortunately died
before this transaction could be completed which has delayed conversations.
The Directors confirm that this current shortfall in the fundraise does not
impact the working capital position of the Company.
The Company had announced that it had granted Aalto Capital AB a total of
55,555,556 warrants to subscribe for new ordinary shares of GBP 0.001 each
(`Warrants'). The Warrants to be exercisable at 0.45 pence per ordinary share,
and for a period of 5 years from the date of issue. Due to the non-completion of
the subscription amount in a timely way these warrants may be withdrawn to the
company's Treasury.
Outlook
The development of the marketing platform as mentioned above will require more
expenditure. Additional funds will be sought for this. Meanwhile the company
continues to supplement its income by applying itself to other project
opportunities and will continue to review its business plan and strategy by
looking at transactions in complimentary sectors that could lead even to a
reverse transaction whilst keeping its establishment overheads as lean as
possible.

compliance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial
Reporting Standard 102, "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the

requirements. As at the date of this report, the Company had approximately
£26,500 cash at bank.
The Directors continue to seek recovery of the sequestered funds held by the
Administrator of it's subsidiary, SportsX, which are believed to amount to
approximately £0.6m.
For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the
financial statements.
