*The Company completed its business combination with GlobalBlock UK in July 2021 and continues to integrate the businesses and refine the internal procedures required of a public company. As such, it has been determined that the differing periods disclosed above (rather than a uniform period of for example, Jul – Nov) provides a more accurate picture of the Company’s performance, and in some circumstances include the crypto market decline from March to July 2021.
** Value of all trades divided by number of trades over the period.
***Client Assets is defined as the total of fiat and digital assets held for clients calculated at each month end.
**** An active client is someone who traded with GlobalBlock.

Rufus Round, CEO at the Company, said:

“2021 was a very exciting year for GlobalBlock and with digital assets becoming more widely adopted, it has allowed us to build a solid foundation for the future. The KPIs demonstrate the effectiveness of our primary key commercial differentiator, which is targeting High Net Worth Individuals with our service led proposition. This success to date has been achieved without undertaking any considerable marketing or communications activity, something we plan to commence in Q1 2022 in conjunction with the launch of enhanced technology that will be foundational for our growth.”
