MANAGEMENTS' COMMENTARY
FOR THE 12 MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 OCTOBER 2009
REVIEW OF THE BUSINESS
The better trend signalled at the half year has materialised, and the company is pleased to report a profit of
£17,767 before tax and £13,418 after tax for the full year.
Shareholders will recall that the company had suatained a loss of £22,690 at the half year, and your directors are
encouraged by the performance in the second half of the year. However, turnover for the full year was £621,907 against
£678,446 in the previous year.
Margins have improved a little and savings have been made wherever possible.
Your directors are recommending that the dividend be maintained at 25p per share as the company has a strong balance
sheet with ample liquidity.
By order of the board

unqualified and did not contain statements under section 237 (2) and (3) of
the Companies Act 1985.
The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 October 2009 will be finalised
on the basis of the financial information presented by the directors in this
preliminary announcement and will be delivered to the Registrar of Companies
following the company's Annual General Meeting.
This preliminary announcement has been prepared on the basis of accounting
policies set out in the 2009 accounts. All accounting policies have been
applied consistently during the current and prior years.

to 31 October 2009 payable to shareholders listed on the Register on 16 April

In accordance with FRS21, dividends are accounted for in the period in which

I have had a look at a load of news sites such as city wire but can't see anything.
Did notice the difference between the Bid (555) and Ask (1450)prices. Why |

This small company has always been a potential reverse takeover candidate.
Does anyone know why the price has changed so much today |
