("VVV” or the “Group”)

 

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2025

 

VVV Sports Limited announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025.

 

OVERVIEW

 

The Company’s goals for the six months to 30 June 2025 were to focus from mineral resource exploration to the sports and media investment sector, with an emphasis on fast-growing racket sports such as padel, pickleball, and beach tennis.

 

This transition was formalised following shareholder approval at the AGM held on 9 June 2025, at which point the Company’s name was officially changed from VVV Resources Limited to VVV Sports Limited. To support this new direction, the Company completed a conditional and underwritten subscription to raise £1,000,000 (gross), which was secured via Campana Investments Ltd. As part of a wider recapitalisation, the Company also issued shares to settle legacy loans owed to loan note holders (“R8 Noteholders”) of R8 Capital Investments plc.

 

The Company’s current investments comprise 100% of the Mitterberg Copper Project in Austria and a 51% holding of the Shangri La polymetallic project in Western Australia. The Mitterberg concessions comprise 198 contiguous licences over some 90 square kilometres located approximately 60 kilometres south of Salzburg. The Shangri La project comprises 10 contiguous hectares of what appears to be a polymetallic mineral assemblage comprising gold, silver and copper.   In the period as part of the R8 Noteholders debt for equity swap, the arrangement gained the Company an investment in R8 Capital Investments Plc.

 

Several board changes occurred to align governance with the new strategy, including the resignation of David Ajemian and the appointment of Jonathan Rowland as Executive Chairman and Richard Morecroft as Non-Executive Director.

 

The Board remains confident that the private and pre-IPO markets remain significantly under-served and as such significant opportunities exist for the Company going forward.

 

Operationally, the Company intends to divest its legacy resource assets and focus exclusively on sports-related opportunities going forward. The financial position at 31 December 2024 showed minimal cash reserves (£5,000), though this was significantly improved post-period following the capital raise, bringing cash resources to approximately £826,000.

 

We would like to thank all our shareholders for their continued support and look forward to updating you on further news in due course.

 

 

Jonathan David Rowland

 

Executive Chairman

Notes to the condensed interim financial statements
 

1.              General Information

 

Basis of preparation and accounting

 

The financial information has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The Company’s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Chairman’s Statement. This statement also includes a summary of the Company’s financial position and its cash flows.

 

These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union with the exception of International Accounting Standard (‘IAS’) 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information or disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 annual financial statements.

 

2.              Earnings per share

 

The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the basic earnings per share, adjusted to allow for the issue of shares and the post-tax effect of dividends and/or interest, on the assumed conversion of all dilutive options and other dilutive potential ordinary shares.

 

Reconciliations of the earnings and weighted average number of shares used are set out below.

3.              Events after the reporting date

 

The Company formalised its change of name from VVV Resources Limited to VVV Sports Limited, which took effect on 27 August 2025. This reflected the strategic shift approved earlier in the year toward sports and media investments. The Company’s ticker (VVV), SEDOL, and ISIN remained unchanged, and a new corporate website was launched at www.vvvsports.pro. In a further governance update, Benjamin Hill, Non-Executive Director, resigned from the Board with effect from 4 September 2025. There were no other material events after the reporting date that require disclosure or adjustment to the interim financial statements as at 30 June 2025.
