Notes to the financial statements

1.    General Information

TechFinancials, Inc, (the "Company") was engaged until the end of 2020 in the development of blockchain-based digital assets solutions and licensing of financials trading platforms to businesses. Having disposed predominantly of its businesses, the Company has been an investing company since the year 2021.

Basis of preparation

As permitted, the Company has chosen not to adopt International Accounting Standard 34 'Interim Financial

Reporting' in preparing these interim financial statements. The condensed consolidated interim financial

statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31

December 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards

(IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.

The interim financial information set out above does not constitute statutory accounts. The information has

been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.

The accounting policies applied in preparing the interim financial information are consistent with those that

have been adopted in the Company's 2022 audited financial statements. Statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 were approved by the Board of Directors on 29 June 2023.

The Directors approved these condensed interim financial statements on 28 September 2023.

Risks and uncertainties

The key risks that could affect the Company's short and medium term performance and the factors that mitigate those risks have not substantially changed from those set out in the Company's 2022 Annual Report and Financial Statements, a copy of which is available on the Company's website: www.techfinancials.com.

2.    Accounting policies

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of certain financials assets and liabilities at fair value through the statement of profit and loss.

The financial information for the 6 months ended 30 June 2023 and the 6 months ended 30 June 2022 has not been audited.

No dividends have been paid in the period (2022: $nil).

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates have not changed during the interim period and are set out in note 3(v) of the Company's 2022 Annual Report and Financial Statements.
