Financial summary

Notes:

(1) For 2025, these figures are for Tooru plc which include a one-month contribution from the newly acquired businesses. The prior periods are based on the published figures for Riverfort Global Opportunities plc.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is calculated before deducting the costs incurred in connection with the RTO process incurred in 2025

Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to report our interim results for the six months to 30 June 2025 which is the first period post the acquisition of the Operating Businesses from S-Ventures plc. The transaction with Tooru completed at the end of May 2025 and so the results for this period only include one month's trading of the Group in its new form. Therefore, in the CEO's Report below, the full six months unaudited results for the Operating Businesses that were acquired have been summarised in order to give shareholders a better understanding of how our new businesses have been trading and have progressed over this period. In general, these businesses have continued to make good progress, with Juvela having developed and launched a number of new products and Pulsin having reduced losses and become EBITDA positive. In particular, Juvela has successfully launched its new retail brand and, with improved access to capital, Pulsin is now better able to capitalise on its established market presence leading to an improvement in financial performance.

We are positive both about the outlook for our new businesses and the sector in which they operate and, going forward, we believe that there will be a number of exciting opportunities to add to our established portfolio.

CEO's Report

I am pleased to report on the performance of the Group for the six months to 30 June 2025. Post the recent acquisition of the Operating Businesses from S Ventures plc, I believe that it is helpful to set out clearly that Tooru now comprises the following operating businesses:

Juvela (established circa 25 years ago) operates a gluten free bakery business with a factory in South Wales and is strong in the pharmacy sector where it is the clear market leader. It has also recently launched a range of new innovative "free from" products which are now already listed with Tesco and with further listings with other major UK supermarket chains expected in the near term under a new modern retail focused brand.

Pulsin protein and fibre nutritional products and We Love Purely currently operate in the healthy snacking market with a number of sweet and savoury products designed to give consumers healthy alternative options to mainstream snacks such as crisps and confectionery. Pulsin has a 20-year history and was one of the first wellness bars in the market. It is currently one of the leading brands of protein bars being sold through Holland and Barrett.

Market Rocket is a trusted digital partner agency for globally recognised Fortune 500 and market disrupting brands alike. Customers include JCB, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. 

Market Rocket also provides its services to other members of the group. Market Rocket is a member of Amazon's trusted Service Provider Network and is certified as an accredited partner with Meta and Google. We plan to grow this business in the enterprise space supporting small and up and coming brands.

As mentioned in the Chairman's Statement above, the reported results for Tooru plc only include one month's trading of the newly acquired businesses. In order to properly understand how these businesses have been trading over the last six months since their performance was last reported on by their previous owner, S Ventures plc, we have set out below their underlying performance over this period. 

Trading performance of the newly acquired Operating Businesses

We have achieved a positive EBITDA of £0.78 million for this period on £6.2 million of sales. This is a significant improvement on the performance for the comparable 6-month period in 2024. 

Juvela has made good progress, launching new retail products, with significant new capital being invested and additional operating costs being incurred to build a "free-from" production line to accommodate this expansion. This has impacted EBITDA when compared to the full year 2024 results on a pro rata basis but this is an important investment for the future development of the business. Juvela's new retail brand, OAF, was successfully launched in Tesco in June 2025 and Tesco is already keen to increase the number of products listed, although the positive impact of this is yet to be reflected in the reported figures. Furthermore, we are progressing discussions with other major food retailers to list our new brand. OAF has also won a number of awards for taste and quality. 

Market Rocket continues to expand with a number of new clients and it has been performing well even during its typically weaker months. Its Amazon agency division has been growing strongly and its strategic use of AI for business development has been generating a number of new opportunities.

Pulsin and We Love Purely have been restructured and now have a much-strengthened team and better managed cost base. This has already led to a significant turnaround in the financial performance of these businesses. We are also currently in the process of relocating these operations from Gloucester to Wales to be co-located with the Juvela which is expected to lead to significant additional cost savings.

From a market standpoint, Pulsin is now one of the best-selling snack bars in Holland and Barrett. Also, with additional capital being made available from within the new Tooru group, this business is now better able to build stock to fulfil the sales demand that exists for their products.

Outlook

We are very excited about the future potential of our existing businesses given the recent progress that we have made and the scope that we see to develop them further. In addition, we are seeing a number of exciting opportunities that we can add to our existing portfolio in order to create additional value for our shareholders.

1. General information The consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2025 are unaudited and were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

2. Basis of preparation The financial information set out in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The group's statutory financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2024, prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those financial statements was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and on the same basis and using the same accounting policies as used in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. The interim financial statements have not been audited or reviewed in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagement 2410 issued by the Auditing Practices Board.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention.

The Directors believe that the going concern basis is appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements as the Company is in a position to meet all its liabilities as they fall due.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise the accounts of the parent company for the six months to 30 June 2025 and those of the five subsidiaries for the period from acquisition on 28 May 2025 to 30 June 2025, after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions.

3. Loss per share: The calculation of the total basic loss per share of 0.07p is based on the loss attributable to equity owners of the company divided by the number of shares in issue during the period.
