* On October 13, 2021 all of the outstanding Class A and Class B shares of the Company were exchanged on a 500 to 1 basis for ordinary shares. The loss per share is based on the new number of shares. The comparatives have also been adjusted. Refer to note 25 for further information.

Potentially dilutive securities include share-based compensation, but these securities are currently anti-dilutive and thus do not impact diluted loss per share.
