Chairman's Report
Streaks AI plc is a full stack AI-focused technology company. Having listed in 2023 it has spent the intervening time developing AI technology in the conversational interface space and in the automated bot sector. Both of these developments are nearing completion.
As the Large Language AI models have developed, the opportunities to utilise these in applications has widened and we see the penetration of these models and the automated bots that interface with them only increasing.
As Streaks AI plc is pre revenue we have made strenuous efforts to minimise discretionary spend in the period so as to extent the operational runway. All continuing Director fees were accrued, unpaid during the period. In doing so, the operational costs incurred in this period are 59% lower than in the same period last year and is expected to be lower again going forward. As such, the Board of the Company are of the opinion that the Company has adequate working capital for the next 12 months. At the end of the period, the Company had cash of £318,000.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE 6 MONTH PERIOD ENDING 31 AUGUST 2024
1 General information
StreaksAI Plc is a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The registered office and principal place of business is 9th Floor, 16 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5DG. The Company was incorporated on 19 March 2021.
The Company's principal activity is that of a global AI-focused software development company, led by a team experienced in this sector and in the development of technology businesses. It is based in UK and its shares are listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange (ticker:STK).
2 Accounting policies
IAS 8 requires that management shall use its judgement in developing and applying accounting policies that result in information which is relevant to the economic decision-making needs of users, that are reliable, free from bias, prudent, complete and represent faithfully the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the entity.
2.1 Basis of preparation
The condensed interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" (IAS 34) as adopted by the European Union (EU). The interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss, and are presented in pounds sterling (£). All amounts have been rounded to the nearest £'000, unless otherwise stated.
The interim financial statements have not been audited. The interim financial statements do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The figures have been prepared using applicable accounting policies and practices consistent with those adopted in the audited annual financial statements ("annual financial statements") for the year ended 29th February 2024.
The interim financial statements are for the six months to 31 August 2024, being six months from the financial year end for the Company being 29 February 2024. The interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the period ended 29 February 2024. The Company has disclosed comparative data for the period from 1st March 23 to 31 Aug 2023 as required for disclosure by accounting standards as well as audited figures from the annual financial statements.
The functional currency for the Company is determined as the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. Both the function and presentational currency of the Company Pounds Sterling (£).
The business is not considered to be seasonal in nature.
New standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the Company
During the current period the Company adopted all the new and revised standards, amendments and interpretations that are relevant to its operations and are effective for accounting periods beginning on 1 December 2023. This adoption did not have a material effect on the accounting policies of the Company.
New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet adopted by the Company
The standards and interpretations that are relevant to the Company, issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of these interim financial statements have been evaluated by the directors and they do not consider that there will be a material impact of transition on the financial statements.
2.2 Going concern
The Company continues to invest in the development of technology and is prioritising this cost. In light of constrained resources, the Company has taken steps to reduce its cash burn, such as deferring Directors fees and terminating external engagements. As a result, the directors are confident that the Company has sufficient resources to meet its liabilities for a period of at least twelve months from approval of the financial statements and the Directors have therefore adopted the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the annual financial statements.
2.3 Risks and uncertainties
The principal risks and uncertainties relevant to the Company have not changed materially since the release of the annual financial statements for the period ending 28 February 2024. These risks can be referenced in the strategic report contained within the annual financial statements.
3 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed below:
Share Based Payments
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. There have been no dilutive instruments issued in the period and the value remains equal to that in the annual financial statements as at the last reporting period.
4 Earnings per share
The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares in issue.

The Company had in issue 82,700,000 warrants and options at 31 August 2024 (82,700,000 at 31 August 2023). The loss attributable to equity holders and weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per ordinary share are identical to those used for basic earnings per ordinary share. This is because the exercise of warrants and options would have the effect of reducing the loss per ordinary share and is therefore anti-dilutive.
