For the Staff’s convenience, we have repeated below the Staff’s comments in italics and have followed each comment with the Company’s response. Disclosure changes made in response to the Staff’s comments have been made in Amendment No. 7 (“Amendment No. 7”) to the Registration Statement on Form F-1, which is being filed with the Commission contemporaneously with the submission of this letter. Caption and page references herein correspond to those set forth in Amendment No. 7.

  

Amendment No. 6 to Registration Statement on Form F-1 Filed February 14, 2022 Prospectus Summary, page 9

 

1. Please revise your graphics reflecting "Our Revenue Growth" and "Our Financial Growth" to include disclosure of the Pre-IPO Group's actual revenues, EBITDA, total assets and shareholders equity as of and for the period ended 2020 and the first half of 2021. Also, it appears that the column reflecting total assets and shareholders' equity for eight companies (pro forma) should be labeled 2021 H1 rather than 2020 H1. Please advise or revise.

 

Response: We have updated the graphic on page 9 to include disclosure of the Pre-IPO Group's actual revenues, EBITDA, total assets and shareholders equity as of and for the period ended 2020 and the first half of 2021. We have also corrected the column header labeled ‘2020 H1’ to ‘2021 H1’. As these two graphs are repeated at the beginning of the prospectus we have also updated the same graphics there.

 

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Credit Facilities, page 123

Response: We have amended the registration statement under “Credit Facilities” on page 123 to disclose the amounts outstanding under UAV’s two bank notes payable of $68,056 and $68,131 as at June 30, 2021.
