From April 1, 2023, the main rate of corporation tax in the United Kingdom increased from 19% to 25%, and a new 19% small profits rate of corporation tax was introduced for companies whose profits do not exceed GBP 50,000. This has no impact on the Company as the subsidiaries in the United Kingdom have no taxable profits. Deferred tax assets are recognized only the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2023, and 2022 are not recognized in the statement of financial position. There are potential deferred tax assets mainly arising on account of estimated accumulated tax losses in the Tanzania operation.

Deferred tax liability has not been recognized in relation to the Goodwill arising from a business combination in accordance with IAS 12 par 14.55 which does not permit recognition of this deferred tax liability.
