WeCap PLC on Tuesday noted balance sheet growth during its latest half year, a period ‘dominated by [its] continued support’ for WeShop Holdings Ltd.
The London-based investor, which focuses on the social commerce, life sciences and natural resources sectors, reported a pretax loss of £389,090 for the six months to October 31. This followed its £169,560 loss the year before.
WeCap, which changed its name from IamFire in December, currently generates no revenue. Its cash balance at October 31 was £104,618, up from £79,435 at the same time one year prior.

The company noted that in May, it had subscribed for additional convertible loan notes in WeShop worth £150,000. It also obtained a 23.6% stake in Community Social Investments Ltd, whose sole holding is 8.3 million shares in WeShop.
As a result, WeCap currently holds shares and CLNs equivalent to a total of around 5.2 million shares in WeShop.
WeCap also currently holds a 10% stake in Bio2pure Ltd, which is developing technology to clean polluted waterways.
Going foward, WeCap ‘continues to look forward to the future progress in both of its primary investments’ and will keep the market updated on any further progress.
