Annual results

NFT Investments PLC (AQSE: NFT), an investment firm, announces its audited results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2022.

Comments from Jonathan Bixby, Executive Chairman of NFT Investments :

I am happy to report NFT Investments PLC's full year results for 2022.

As previously highlighted in the most recent announcement on 2 April 2023, the Group is now largely invested with over GBP27.8m million in liquid crypto (unaudited), categorised as Intangible Assets in the Balance Sheet. The rationale for these investments was based on the historical price of BTC relative to the BTC halving timeframe. The next scheduled halving will take place in April 2024. The historical data suggests that BTC hits new highs approximately three to four months post halving.

The results of the period show a reduction in Total Assets of GBP9.4m from GBP34.5m to GBP25.1m, largely as a result of reduction in valuation of Crypto assets at the height of the "Crypto winter". We are pleased to note that there has been a substantial recovery in Crypto prices since 31 December 2022. By taking the price of Crypto tokens at 28 June 2023 and applying these to our Crypto holdings at 31 December 2022, this shows that the uplift in valuation would be from GBP15.2m to GBP23.3m, wiping out all but GBP1.3m of the reduction in Total Assets in the period.

The Group's Directors have concluded that the correct approach to the widening share price discount to NAV is to return value to shareholders and the current intention is to do so after the BTC halving currently scheduled to take place in April 2024. On 26, May 2023 shareholders approved this return of funds via a tender offer for shares and the Company is in the middle of applying for the consent of the Court for a reduction of capital required to create distributable reserves. This process is expected to be completed in early July 2023.

The Directors believe that these transparent actions coupled with a willingness to ultimately return capital to shareholders is the best approach given the wide discrepancy between the Company's NAV and its current share price.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our shareholders for their support last year and look forward to updating them on a quarterly basis as we move towards the halving next year.
