BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Crypto Blockchain Industries, SA ("CBI" or the "Company") is a company incorporated under the laws of France.

The financial year runs from April 1st, 2022 to March 31, 2023.

The financial statements are presented as at March 31, 2023 for the entire 2023 fiscal year, from April 1st, 2022 to March 31, 2023.

The scope of consolidation (referred to as the "Group") comprises CBI and 2 subsidiaries, OP Productions and Free Reign East.

The financial statements are presented in accordance with IFRS accounting principles.

COMPANY PRESENTATION

CBI is one of the few companies offering a global investment approach covering all the main aspects of blockchain. CBI, after a meticulous review of projects, invests in those aspects of blockchain offering the best estimated opportunities:

  • Operational activities: CBI controls, alone or in partnership, the business (transport, video games) ;
  • Investments: CBI invests in start-ups; CBI also invests to help companies successfully transition to the blockchain world;
  • Intellectual property rights: CBI can invest in intellectual property rights (IPs), or create its own portfolio;
  • Portfolio management: CBI holds and manages crypto-currencies and tokens, and also holds liquid assets such as shares in listed blockchain and gaming companies.

CBI's strategy is to invest in operational activities and start-ups, as well as in crypto-currencies and tokens.

To offer greater flexibility and optimize the chances of commercial success, CBI also offers payment options in traditional currencies where technically feasible.

CBI's objective is to grow its portfolio of assets, optimize return on investment and operate with a limited level of fixed costs, focusing on the best opportunities in the industry. CBI uses leveraged financing techniques, while maintaining a priority on collateralization to minimize the level of risk.

The complementary nature of these activities also enables synergies to be created.

CBI: Strategy and development for a connected, open virtual world

The company's core business is currently focused on the development of AlphaVerse, a beautifully designed, feature-rich digital virtual world. AlphaVerse is organized around a central place, the "Hub", which connects numerous universes in the field of games and entertainment. AlphaVerse is an open and versatile Web3.0 online platform that offers gaming and interaction experiences, as well as content creation and sharing. AlphaVerse operates on the traditional side with payments in traditional currencies, and on the blockchain side with the major cryptocurrencies as well as the Crystal token ($CRYS), AlphaVerse's cryptocurrency, and the $FAV token, Football at AlphaVerse's cryptocurrency. 600 million units of the Crystal token have been created on the blockchain, with the first private sales already completed for US$ 1.8 million on a valuation basis of US$ 50.0 million for all Crystal tokens (i.e. US$ 0.083 per Crystal token). 11 billion units of the $FAV token have been created: the tokens will enable microtransactions in the Football at AlphaVerse universe, participation in quests or mini- games, the purchase of NFTs, the running of referral programs, access to discounts on purchases, or the earning of FAV tokens linked to the creativity or commitment of users, in the manner of a loyalty card. CBI aims to list $FAV in 2023.

Some universes are developed by CBI for its own account, others are developed by CBI in association with partners, and others by third parties with a view to being linked to AlphaVerse through the Hub. The Hub was first opened for testing in September 2022, generating many positive and enriching feedbacks. After an initial development phase during which priority was given to video games, music and the associative world, all leading fields bringing together vast international communities, the universes currently under development are as follows:

  • MetaCoaster: an amusement park simulation game on blockchain. Users will be able to play solo to hone their skills, or take part in global park-building competitions and win cryptos.

This metaverse is currently being acquired by CBI, for $1 million mainly paid in CBI shares and an earn-out clause.
  • Chain Games: Chain Games is a blockchain-integrated gaming network offering decentralized skill games, Skill-Based and Play-to-Earn contests, allowing players to earn crypto-currencies as a reward for their efforts. This world will be developed and operated by Chain Games.
  • Rave Age: Rave Age is dedicated to the rave and electronic music community, its history, key figures and the latest industry news. Visitors to the Rave Age AlphaVerse will be able to watch videos, collect NFTs and share experiences and content related to rave culture and electronic music. Users will be able to organize artistic events, such as festivals, concerts and exhibitions around rave culture and the electronic music community.
  • Soccer at AlphaVerse: Football at AlphaVerse is a world dedicated to soccer, in which visitors can move around the various emblematic locations of their favorite clubs and enjoy a variety of games and entertainment.

In addition to AlphaVerse, CBI invests and shares its expertise in various projects related to blockchain technology. In particular, CBI has invested in four companies: two premium video games that are currently being adapted to incorporate blockchain technologies (OP Productions, LLC and Free Reign East, LLC), a transportation marketplace company developing a blockchain-based solution (National Carrier Exchange) and a talent management agency (Blockchain Artists Agency) that targets celebrities from all walks of life to develop their image on blockchain, notably through NFTs and community animation tools.
