· The Directors of MobilityOne expect the Group's e-payment business in the mobile phone prepaid airtime reload and bill payment business in Malaysia to continue to grow but the overall the trading performance in the second half of 2018 to be challenging as the business in Bangladesh via MiTP is expected to continue to incur more costs to expand the point of sales and user base.

Chairman's statement
The revenue of the Group increased by 56.32% to £57.51 million (H1 2017: revenue of £36.79 million) in the first six months of 2018, which was mainly contributed by growth of the Group's e-payment business in the mobile phone prepaid airtime reload and bill payment business via the Group's banking channels (such as mobile banking, internet banking and ATMs) with 10 banks and approximately 2,000 payment terminal bases in Malaysia. However, the Group recorded a net loss after tax of £0.83 million in the first six months of 2018 (H1 2017: profit after tax of £0.19 million) mainly due to the loss contributed by MiTP.
MiTP is providing a mobile financial services platform in Bangladesh, which includes a mobile banking app, for Meghna Bank Ltd ("Meghna"). Meghna is a commercial bank which currently has 47 branches in Bangladesh. The mobile financial services platform, named "Tap 'n Pay", has been launched by Meghna. More than 7,000 point of sales devices have been deployed in Bangladesh by MiTP for Meghna's mobile financial services. MiTP has been investing to expand the point of sales and user base and has only started generated a small revenue in the first half of 2018.
The Group's business in the Philippines in the provision of e-payment solution and the international remittance services in Malaysia via its 50%-owned associate company, Happy Remit Sdn Bhd (formerly known as Unique Change Sdn Bhd) ("Happy Remit") have not made a significant contribution to the Group.
As at 30 June 2018, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of £3.21 million (30 June 2017: cash and cash equivalents of £2.39 million) and the secured loans and borrowings from financial institutions were £3.87 million (30 June 2017: £3.38 million).
Current trading and outlook
The Directors expect the Group's e-payment business in the mobile phone prepaid airtime reload and bill payment business in Malaysia to continue to grow but the international remittance services by Happy Remit in Malaysia and the operations in the Philippines for the provision of an e-payment solution are not expected to make a significant contribution to the Group in the second half of 2018. Nevertheless, the mobile remittance services by Happy Remit to conduct money transfer services using a mobile application is hoped to open up the Group's money transfer services to untapped markets and bring growth to this segment of the Group's business in the longer term.
The business in Bangladesh via MiTP is expected to continue to incur more costs in the second half of 2018 to expand the point of sales and user base. As such, the Directors expect the overall financial performance of the Group in the second half of 2018 to be impacted by the expected losses of MiTP. Nevertheless, the long-term prospects of MiTP with new services to be introduced in the future, such as inward money transfer services and local municipal bill payment services, are expected to enhance the growth of MiTP's business in Bangladesh and the Group as a whole.

Full details of the accounting policies adopted, which are consistent with those disclosed in the Company's 2017 Annual Report, will be included in the audited financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2018.
| |||||||||||||||
| 2. | Basis of consolidation | |||||||||||||||
|
|
The consolidated statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial position include financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to 30 June 2018.
| |||||||||||||||
| 3. | Nature of financial information
The unaudited interim financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2018 does not constitute statutory accounts under the meaning of Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative figures for the year ended 31 December 2017 are extracted from the audited statutory financial statements. Full audited financial statements of the Group in respect of that financial year prepared in accordance with IFRS, which we received an unqualified audit opinion, have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies.

| 4. | Functional and presentation currency
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The functional currency of the Group is Ringgit Malaysia (RM). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Pound Sterling (£), which is the Company's presentational currency as this is the currency used in the country in which the entity is listed.
Assets and liabilities are translated into Pound Sterling (£) at foreign exchange rates ruling at the Statement of Financial Position date. Results and cash flows are translated into Pound Sterling (£) using average rates of exchange for the period.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year/period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
The financial information set out below has been translated at the following rates:
| |||||||||||||||
| 5. | Segmental analysis | |||||||||||||||
|
| No segmental analysis of revenues, profits, assets and liabilities are presented and no geographical segment information is presented as the Group mainly trades and provides services in only one region - the Far East.
| |||||||||||||||
| 6. | Taxation | |||||||||||||||
|
| Taxation on the income statement for the financial period comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected amount of taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the financial period and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted at the Statement of Financial Position date.
Deferred tax is recognised on the liability method for all temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position and its tax base at the Statement of Financial Position date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax is not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or negative goodwill or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Statement of Financial Position date. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each Statement of Financial Position date and is reduced to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available.
Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement, except when it arises from a transaction which is recognised directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also charged or credited directly in equity, or when it arises from a business combination that is an acquisition, in which case the deferred tax is included in the resulting goodwill or negative goodwill.

| The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the loss in the six month period ended 30 June 2018 of £514,013 (30 June 2017: profit of £190,799 and year ended 31 December 2017: loss of £633,359) attributable to owners of the parent by the number of ordinary shares outstanding at 30 June 2018 of 106,298,780 (30 June 2017: 106,298,780 and 31 December 2017: 106,298,780).
The diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended 30 June 2018 is calculated using the number of shares adjusted to assume the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares of 116,898,780 (on 5 December 2014, the Company granted share options of 10,600,000 shares at 2.5p to directors and certain employees of the Group).

| Amortisation of intangible assets
Software is amortised over its estimated useful life. Management estimated the useful life of this asset to be within 10 years. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development could impact the economic useful life therefore future amortisation could be revised.
The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value-in-use of the cash generating units ("CGU") to which goodwill is allocated. Estimating a value-in-use amount requires management to make an estimation of the expected future cash flows from the CGU and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.
The research and development costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the life span of the developed assets. Management estimated the useful life of these assets to be within 5 years. Changes in the technological developments could impact the economic useful life and the residual values of these assets, therefore future amortisation charges could be revised.

| Impairment of goodwill on consolidation
The Group's cash flow projections include estimates of sales. However, if the projected sales do not materialise there is a risk that the value of goodwill would be impaired.
The Directors have carried out a detailed impairment review in respect of goodwill. The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired, by considering cash flows forecasts. The cash flow projections are based on the assumption that the Group can realise projected sales. A prudent approach has been applied with no residual value being factored. At the period end, based on these assumptions there was no indication of impairment of the value of goodwill or of development costs.

|
| Research and development costs
All research costs are recognised in the income statement as incurred.
Expenditure incurred on projects to develop new products is capitalised and deferred only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the project and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development. Product development expenditures which do not meet these criteria are expensed when incurred.
Development costs, considered to have finite useful lives, are stated at cost less any impairment losses and are amortised through other operating expenses in the income statement using the straight-line basis over the commercial lives of the underlying products not exceeding 5 years. Impairment is assessed whenever there is an indication of impairment and the amortisation period and method are also reviewed at least at each Statement of Financial Position date.
