Chairman's report
The Company has continued to pursue its strategy of disposing of underperforming
assets and repositioning itself to take advantage of future growth opportunities
in the last financial year. The results for the year reflect this strategy and
include an exceptional loss of #669,826 following the disposal of the company's
investment in Catalyst Investment Corp.
As notified in last year's chairman's statement as post balance sheet
disclosures, in August 2005 the Company restructured its convertible loan to
Private Trading Systems Inc (PVTM). PVTM is a publicly traded securities trading
platform that provides an order book matching system. In October the Company
settled all outstanding litigation issues with its former Chief Executive, Ken
Murray. Later that month the company sold its interest in Catalyst Investment
Corp back to its major shareholder. In November 2005 the company successfully
raised #1,000,000 by the issue of ordinary share capital before expenses to
provide working capital and to enable the Board to identify and implement its
strategy for growth. Finally, in February 2006, the Company announced that a
subsidiary, Baden Associates Limited, was to be wound up. This completed the
disposal of the Company's interests in public houses.
As a result of the above transactions the Company has significantly simplified
its business which now consists primarily of an investment in PVTM, where the
Company owns 722,900 shares of restricted stock. Based on the closing price of
PVTM on 28th November of $5 per share the Company's shareholding has a value of
$3.61 million (#1.87m based on an exchange rate of $1.93 to #1). In addition, as
at the same date the Company has cash reserves of approximately #950,000, with
no significant liabilities and limited ongoing running costs.
Following the rationalisation of the Company's assets, the directors have waived
their entitlement to remuneration and the costs associated with the running of
the Company have been kept to professional fees and those costs required to
maintain the AIM listing.
Your board continues to pursue opportunities aimed at realising value for
shareholders and looks forward to updating shareholders in due course.
