Andrew Tuckey, Chairman, commented:

"Last year's results were adversely affected by the timing of deal completions; a number of these deals have now completed and as a result the current financial year has begun strongly. This, taken together with an encouraging pipeline of new business and a significantly lower cost base, promises well for the year and we are confident in achieving a good result for our shareholders".

Last year was a difficult year for the Group: revenues were significantly down, we reorganised our operations in
Edinburgh and decided to impair part of the goodwill carried on our balance sheet.
A summary of the Group's results is shown below. As in the previous year, we show the (loss)/profit before tax both as set out in the statutory accounts and as adjusted for the share scheme component in our remuneration. Under IFRS 2 (the accounting standard) we are required to amortise the costs of share issues over the awards vesting period; however, the Board regards the decision to award shares as a substitute for a cash bonus as a commitment at the time it is made because these awards have been allocated from the bonus pool in each year. Accordingly, the table below shows the effect on profits if all the commitments to award shares are charged against the year when they are made. In addition, the table shows the Group's pre tax (loss)/profit adjusted for non recurring items:
