Guy Meyer, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Catenae, said: “Significant progress has been made during the period under review towards implementing the Group’s revised strategy following the corporate restructuring that took place in 2019, and we have seen this momentum continue to date.
“We are delighted that the Cov-ID app that Catenae has developed as its commercial contribution to the consortium led by Z/Yen Group Limited completed the recent pilot trail with our clinical partner, Newcastle Premier Health Limited, as part of their Access Control Programme. The app should shortly be ready to be marketed for the benefit of businesses and organisations as Covid-19 restrictions begin to ease.
“Our recent fundraises have provided us with the funds required to continue to explore further opportunities. We look forward to keeping the market updated with our progress.”
Chief Executive’s Statement
Business and performance review
Following the successful corporate restructuring and business stabilisation process carried out by the Board in 2019, Catenae was able to focus its efforts on delivering on its new strategy in the six months to 31 March 2020, by innovating its products and exploring new opportunities for growth. This positive momentum has continued post period end, with two new Board appointments and a number of projects underway.
Catenae’s principal trading activity is providing services to clients operating in the Facilities Management sector along with customers, partnered with football and rugby clubs, who offer local engagement services on behalf of local authorities. All the Company’s products use Distributed Ledger Technology which provides clients with immutable audit trails providing evidence that contracted services are fulfilled. The Company’s service mitigates risk as operative activities are geo-tagged and date and time stamped in an immutable form.
As announced on 19 December 2019, the Company renewed its contract with Southend United Community and Educational Trust for “OnSide”, Catenae’s centralised management tool specifically developed for sports organisations. The solution deals with all the key elements of community coaching from scheduling of staff and timesheet processing through to attendee management and reporting to internal and external stakeholders, all in a GDPR compliant platform.
COVID-19
Post period end, the Company has been exploring a number of opportunities across a range of sectors to leverage its technical solutions. Catenae joined a consortium led by Z/Yen Group Limited (“Z/Yen”) with the objective of building a GDPR-compliant identity documentation exchange system, “Cov-ID”, to record and share an individual’s Covid-19 test status. Considerable progress has been made in the development of the app, which was recently trialled by the Group’s occupational health and wellness partner in the North East of England, Newcastle Premier Health Limited, in its proof of concept pilot. Catenae expects the app to be ready to be rolled out commercially over the coming weeks as activity begins to return to a semblance of normality.
Notwithstanding the current market developments in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has confidence in its business continuity arrangements. At the end of January 2020, the Company ceased to rent offices, with all employees working remotely. Currently, where needed, all business meetings are held using video conferencing platforms. The Company sees that for the foreseeable future, this will now be standard operational practice. Catenae’s technical solutions continue to be used effectively with customers and partners, an approach which contributes to the Company’s resilience in the current circumstances.
Board and management
Catenae welcomed Brian Thompson and John Farthing to the Board as Non-executive Chairman and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, on 24 April 2020. Their wealth of experience, expertise and business network will add considerable benefit to the Company as we execute our strategy going forward.
Kevin Everett, Interim Non-executive Chairman since 17 July 2019 and Non-executive Director since 16 May 2013, stepped down from his role on 24 April 2020 to pursue other business interests. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Kevin for his hard work and support during an important period.
Outlook
Catenae has entered H2 2020 in a stable position and with a streamlined and resilient business model to capitalise on the opportunities that are presenting themselves. The COVID-19 pandemic presents us all with an unprecedented challenge, however the Group is confident in its ability to continue to provide its customers and partners with its technical solutions in an efficient manner.
The Company has a pipeline of opportunities ahead to expand its network of clients and to provide its technical solutions to a wider audience, and the Board looks forward to updating the market on its progress in due course.

Guy Meyer, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Catenae, said: “The Board recognises that the Company’s 2019 final results are disappointing and reflect the challenging business conditions we faced during the course of last year. We were encouraged by the progression of the Charlton Athletic Community Trust and FireDoor Guardian contracts to year two of the agreed periods.
“With the corporate restructuring now complete, the Company is in a more stable position and is confident in its ability to seek new growth opportunities to enhance shareholder value. We look forward to keeping the market updated with our progress.”
Chairman’s Statement
Business and performance review
The trading year was challenging as the Company fought for greater market share against the backdrop of slowing market activity caused by the lack of political certainty produced by Brexit. With the under-achievement of significant sales, the Company managed its finances prudently by further streamlining its operations and significantly reduced its cash burn, leading to the stabilisation of the Company through further consolidation.
The past 12 months have seen Charlton Athletic Community Trust move into year two of its three- year contract with the Company and FireDoor Guardian Ltd. progress into its second contract year with the Company.
Board changes
In July 2019 Tony Sanders, the former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, stepped down as a director of the Company and Guy Meyer, the Business Development Director at the time, assumed the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. For corporate governance best practice, Kevin Everett was appointed Interim Non-Executive Chairman. Anthony Flynn also joined the Board in July 2019 and resigned in December 2019.
On 24 April 2020, Kevin Everett stepped down from the Board, and was replaced by Brian Thompson as Non-executive Chairman. John Farthing, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, also joined the Board on 24 April 2020.

The Company has a statement of financial position at the year-end showing net liabilities of £727,077 (2018: £891,929).
On 26 March 2020, the Company announced it had agreed a loan facility of £150,000 from Brian Thompson.
The results are presented under European Union Adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (“EU Adopted IFRS”).

During the year, the Company issued 1,145,000,000 new ordinary shares for a total gross consideration of £1,245,000, of which £1,122,810 was received in cash and £122,190 to settle existing liabilities.

COVID-19
Notwithstanding the current market developments in relation to the spread of COVID-19 and its impact on the global economy, the Company has confidence in its business continuity arrangements. At the end of January 2020, the Company had reduced its premises rental contract to zero cost by having all employees working remotely. Currently, where needed, all business meetings are held using video conferencing platforms. The Company sees that for the foreseeable future, this will now be standard operational practice.
Summary

Catenae Innovation #CTEA joins Consortium on Cov-ID Project
Catenae Innovation PLC (AIM: CTEA), the AIM quoted provider of digital media and technology, today announces that it has joined a consortium led by Z/Yen Group (“Z/Yen”) with the objective of building a GDPR compliant identity documentation exchange system, “Cov-ID”, to record an individual’s Covid-19 test status. Details of the project can be found at https://www.chainzy.com/case-studies/cov-id-project/
The Cov-ID ‘digital passport’ would record both swab tests (active virus) and serological tests (antibody) and enable people to easily share their status – unexposed, active and recovered – in any fast, secure digital medium. The benefit is an authoritative way for specific groups to know that they can responsibly allow people to congregate at work or in social settings. The vast testing information being compiled can be shared with controls that ensure individuals remain in charge of their data. The Cov-ID system will use an ‘internet of record’ Smart Ledger (aka blockchain) identity documentation platform called ChainZy and a digital identity product IDChainZ. Both systems were developed by Z/Yen, the City of London’s leading commercial think-tank, which has significant expertise in health and software development, running the software and timestamping for clinical assessment trials worldwide.
The Cov-ID Project Technical mobilisation should occur over the next 2 week period, with a prototype, testing and finalisation stage occurring in the following 2 week period.
Catenae is an intellectual property client of Z/Yen using ChainZy for its OnSite products and will provide expertise and Catenae’s own propriety technology which is currently deployed across the Sporting, Man-Guarding and Facilities Management sectors.
About Z/Yen Group
Z/Yen was founded in 1994 to promote societal advance through better finance and technology. Z/Yen has built its practice around a core of high-powered project managers, supported by experienced technical specialists so that clients get expertise they need, rather than just resources available. The firm is headquartered in London, but Z/Yen is committed to the ‘virtual office’ concept and is an intense user of technology in order to improve flexibility and benefit staff. Z/Yen has 25 full-time-equivalent staff and over 300 associate experts. Z/Yen people share significantly in the benefits of success and Z/Yen seeks to develop a supportive environment in which professionals from a variety of disciplines can flourish.
Consortium members
Other members of the consortium are:-
- fm2x, a specialist software provider working with Z/Yen for over 25 years providing secure systems to the Cabinet Office and running youthinmind’s systems, handling over 15 million clinical assessments per year.
- SI Units, a data science company of young researchers specialising in bespoke projects connecting interdisciplinary expertise providing novel forecasts, using machine learning, artificial intelligence, data science and physics.
There is no guarantee that the Cov-ID product will be finalised nor enter the commercialisation stage, nor that in the event that it is commercialised, that the commercial terms will be favourable to the Company.
Guy Meyer, Interim Chief Executive Officer, Catenae, said: “We are very pleased to be part of this fast-moving dynamic consortium developing such an exciting, innovative and relevant product utilising our combined technology expertise. The Cov-ID digital passport will allow this testing data to be available simply on a fast, reliable and secure controlled exchange in real-time. User participation needs to be from the ground up and not imposed top down. To that end, the social and economic benefits to users needs to be compelling as society emerges from current restrictions. Clearly these benefits of enabling people to re-enter the workplace or social settings are enormous. We look forward to updating the market as the project progresses. “
Professor Michael Mainelli, Executive Chairman, Z/Yen Group, said: “We are delighted to welcome Catenae to this consortium. There are many suggestions for handling the return to normality safely, and our proposal for an open source architecture to help provide solid evidence of exposure, simply, reliably, and in line with privacy concerns could help not just with covid-19 but also other identity & documentation exchange. Catenae’s experience in on-site validation is invaluable to our consortium .”
