EARNINGS PER SHARE

The basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares in issue.

|                                                                 |    2024 |    2023 |
| Net loss for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders 
 from continuing operations ($’000)                              | -55,102 | -34,637 |
| Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue             
 (‘000)                                                          | 607,879 | 503,917 |
| Basic and diluted loss per share for continuing operations      
 (cents)                                                         |   -0.09 |   -0.07 |

The diluted loss per Ordinary Share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding to consider the impact of options, warrants and other dilutive securities. As the effect of potential dilutive Ordinary Shares in the current year would be anti-dilutive, they are not included in the above calculation of dilutive earnings per Ordinary Share for 2024 and 2023.

No deferred tax has been recognised on the losses brought forward and carried forward on the UK, Canada and US losses given the uncertainty on the generation of future profits.

Income tax expense

The tax on the Group’s profit before tax differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the weighted average tax rate applicable to profits of the consolidated entities as follows:
