Chairmans Statement
It gives me great pleasure to present my first chairman's statement
since the Company's successful IPO in August 2023. Whilst we are
a relatively small team at present, all members of the Board and
employees went above and beyond, to ensure the continuing commercialisation
of our products and services, alongside the IPO, which necessarily
requires huge time and focus.
In terms of financial performance, the management team have performed
well during H1 2023 achieving 54% year on year revenue growth whilst
also preparing the business for rapid scaling.
Our target markets are large commercial and industrial operators
and manufacturers of any equipment with an engine, gearbox or hydraulics
which thus relies on lubrication oil for reliable and efficient
operation. In these days of intense global competition, high oil
prices and a drive to decarbonise, our proposition of reduced operating
costs, reduced break downs and oil consumption through waste reduction,
resonates loudly and provides Tan Delta with a very significant
global opportunity.
In anticipation of a successful IPO, the management undertook significant
planning during the period to commence sales and marketing in the
second half of the year ("H2 2023") with an initial focus on European
and North American markets, expanding later on in 2024 to the Middle
East, Asia, Africa and South America. The Company is now in a strategically
advantageous situation with an innovative and proven product addressing
a significant global market with a compelling proposition. Furthermore,
as a result of our IPO we now have the cash to commence material
and sustained sales activities and execution of the Board's long-term
strategy.
In order to provide further support and governance strength during
H2 2023 we will add a new independent Non-Executive Director to
our Board. This will complete the Board of Directors and provide
the Company with the management depth and governance to maximise
its opportunities and deliver shareholder growth.
Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff,
advisers and investors who supported us through and at IPO.
Chief Executive Review
We are pleased to have achieved our targets for H1 2023. Following
our successful IPO in August 2023 we are now well placed to continue
performing in line with expectations in H2 2023 and beyond, as the
business continues to grow and benefit from the ability to invest
in product evolution and global sales and marketing.
Revenue increased by 54% to GBP0. 96m (H1 2022: GBP0.62m) whilst
broadly maintaining gross margin which slightly fell to 63% (H1:
2022 64%) as a result of a change in product sales mix. Underlying
operating profits, excluding one-off IPO related costs, also increased
by 608% to GBP0.18m (H2 2022: GBP0.03m) as our cost base growth
is not directly coupled to revenue growth.
During the Period revenue was primarily driven by a small number
of prospects who commenced implementations following their evaluation
period, and by a number of small sales to new customers commencing
their evaluations. In the second half we expect more customers to
enter and commence implementation on their equipment fleets, as
well as contribution from our off the shelf SENSE-2 and MOT products.
During the Period, we had three main operational objectives. Firstly,
we continued to progress and grow existing customer evaluations
and adoption planning for our sensor systems. Secondly, we planned
and prepared for the acceleration of our business post IPO, so that
we were ready to immediately start expanding sales, increasing marketing
activities and upscaling production. Thirdly, was the successful
completion of our IPO and securing significant capital to fund the
execution of our global expansion plans.
Moving into H2 2023, we are focused on the implementation of our
sales and marketing plan which is primarily focussed on our off
the shelf SENSE-2 and MOT products, both of which can be immediately
installed and used by equipment owners/operators. Our marketing
program will see these products actively promoted to specific market
verticals including power generation, manufacturing and transportation
in Europe, North America, Middle East, Asia and South America. In
parallel we have commenced increased production to fulfil expected
demand.
A major operational focus for H2 2023 will be the increase of our
human resources to support and enable our rapid scaling plans with
a particular focus on sales, customer support and production. I
am pleased to report that we are making good progress. In 2024 we
will turn our attention to our technology and product development
team which we will further develop to meet the needs of our next
generation of technology and product development targeting the global
automotive segment.
Notes to editors
Tan Delta Systems plc has developed innovative technologies,
products and services that enable operators of rotating equipment,
from trucks and ships to generators and wind turbines, to reduce
oil consumption, maintenance costs, breakdowns and carbon
footprint.
Tan Delta's products offer customers a compelling proposition of
being able to reduce operating costs whilst improving reliability.
This is achieved through equipment operators gaining a better
understanding of the actual real time maintenance status of their
active equipment through the real time analysis of lubrication oil
used within engine, gearboxes and hydraulic systems. Tan Delta's
data analytics, enables the following benefits:
-- Reduced oil consumption by approximately 30 per cent, by
ensuring oil is not changed before it has reached the end of its
life;
-- Reduced breakdowns and associated costs by detecting issues
before damage or failure occurs;
-- Increased equipment operating times by enabling intervals
between maintenance to be extended and;
-- Reduced carbon footprint through a reduction in oil use and prolonged equipment life.
The Company currently offers four main products built around its
core oil condition analysis sensor technology, all of which target
primarily large commercial and industrial equipment market
segments.
Tan Delta was admitted to trading on AIM in August 2023 with the
ticker TAND. For additional information please visit

Notes to the unaudited condensed interim financial
statements.
1. General information
The interim financial statements were approved by the Board of
Directors on the 28 September 2023.
2. Basis of preparation
The interim financial statements of the Company are for the six
months ended 30 June 2023.
The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 December
2022 are not the Company's statutory accounts for that financial
year. The comparative figures were prepared under International
Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') for the purposes of
presentation in the Company's AIM Admission Document published on
11 August 2023 ('Admission Document'). The statutory accounts filed
at Companies House were prepared under the historical cost
convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102
'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic
of Ireland' including the provisions of Section 1A 'Small Entities'
and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements were audited
and prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to
companies subject to the small companies' regime even though they
were exempt from audit under Section 477 of the Companies Act
2006.
The condensed interim financial statements for H1 2023 do not
include all the information and disclosures required in the annual
financial statements and have not been audited or reviewed by an
auditor pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on Review
of Interim Financial Information. However, selected explanatory
notes are included to explain events and transactions that are
significant for an understanding of the changes in the Company's
financial position and performance in the period.
The condensed interim financial statements for H1 2023 have been
prepared based on the accounting policies adopted within the
Admission Document, and those expected to be adopted for the year
ending 31 December 2023. These accounting policies are drawn up in
accordance with adopted International Accounting Standards ('IAS')
and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued
by the International Accounting Standards Board and adopted by the
EU.
AIM-listed companies are not required to comply with IAS 34
'Interim Financial Reporting' and accordingly the Company has taken
advantage of this exemption.

at the end of the period 50,149,800 50,149,800 50,149,800
----------------------------- ------------------- ----------------- --------------
The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the
results attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the number
of ordinary shares outstanding as if the bonus issue and share
split had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period
presented. The earnings per share calculations for the period and
prior period presented are based on the new number of shares.
The number of shares in issue at the end of the period is used
as the denominator in calculating basic earnings per share. As the
Company is loss making the effect of instruments that convert into
ordinary shares is considered anti-dilutive, hence there is no
difference between the diluted and non-diluted loss per share.
During the period ended 30 June 2023, the Company completed a
110 for 1 bonus share issue and a subdivision of shares. Prior to
the bonus issue there were 451,800 shares at GBP0.001, after the
bonus issue there are 50,149,800 shares at GBP0.001

Called up share capital represents the nominal value of shares
that have been issued.
All classes of shares have full voting, dividends, and capital
distribution rights.
On 1 June 2023, the ordinary shares were subdivided from GBP0.01
to GBP0.001 (45,180 shares to 451,800 shares). Subsequently a bonus
issue was made for all the shareholders holding 451,800 shares at
that date. The bonus issue offered 110 ordinary shares for every 1
ordinary share in issue, with a nominal value of GBP0.001 per
share. This increased the number of ordinary shares in issue by
49,698,000 to 50,149,800.

In anticipation of re-registering the Company as a public
limited company, at a general meeting of the Company on 1 June
2023, it was resolved that the Company would reduce its share
premium account by an amount of GBP1.52m by crediting the Profit
and Loss Account.
