Book Value Report

APQ Global Limited

("APQ Global" or the "Company")

Book value report

APQ Global is a company incorporated in Guernsey (company registration number 62008) which is listed on The International Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on AIM.

The Company hereby announces that as at the close of business on 29^th March 2024, the unaudited book value per Ordinary Share was 29.95 US Dollar cents, equivalent to 23.71 Pounds Sterling pence.

At the end of 29^th March 2024, the Company held approximately US Dollar 14.2 million in cash.  APQ Global also anticipates receipt of significant cashflows from ongoing transactions within its portfolio of investments over the next 6 months, driven by the continuing strong trading performance in wholly owned US-based capital raising and transaction advisory business Delphos International, from which a substantial proportion of this cash is anticipated to be generated. Delphos International benefits from a diversified portfolio of mandated transactions in execution across multiple sectors globally.

The Board remains committed to the full repayment of CULS, which are due to mature in September.  It is also cognisant that, given the nature of Delphos International's mandates, there are external factors that may impact on the timing of receipt of the associated anticipated cash flows to the Company, which may in turn require the Board to seek alternative solutions for the CULS.

The 30 June 2024 unaudited book value will be released in July 2024.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Important Notice:

*The term 'book value' herein includes the assets of APQ Global and its subsidiaries net of any liabilities. The figure in this announcement is an estimate and is based on unaudited estimated valuations in accordance with the Company's valuation policy as stated in the Company's AIM Admission Document. The Group has measured its private investments in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. In September 2017, APQ Global Ltd issued 4,018 units of £5,000 nominal 3.5 per cent convertible unsecured loan stock 2024 ("CULS") to raise £20.09 million. In January 2018, APQ Global Ltd issued a further 1,982 CULS units at a price of £5,150 per £5,000 nominal to raise £10.21 million. Under IFRS, the CULS is a financial instrument and has been accounted for under IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and IFRS 9 (as effective for periods beginning on or after 1st January 2018). Therefore, the fair value of the CULS liability component has been calculated, with the difference between this and the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole being taken to equity. Following completion of the buy back and cancellation of CULS in April 2023, there are currently 5,920 units of CULS outstanding. Additionally, on January 28th, 2020, the Group issued 1,000,000 Warrants and 268,000 Convertible Preference Shares (CPS). In October 2021, the Group entered into an agreement to repurchase the entire amount of CPS and cancel all of the warrants outstanding. Under IFRS, the Warrants and the CPS were also Financial Instruments and were accounted for per the above guidance. This figure also includes the amounts awarded in accordance with the Company's Share-Based compensation scheme as adopted by the board on 19th April 2017 and accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2. Shares awarded under the scheme vest quarterly across 5 years. As of 29^th March 2024, the total shares issued under the scheme amounted to 504,983.

Estimated results, performance or achievements may differ materially from any actual results, performance or achievements. No person has authority to give any representations or warranties (express or implied) as to, or in relation to, the accuracy, reliability or completeness of the information in this release, and all liability therefore is expressly disclaimed.
