Ensor Holdings PLC
("Ensor", the "Group" or the "Company")
Interim results for the four months to 31 July 2016
Chairman's Statement
I thought that this would be an appropriate moment to give you an Ensor update,
particularly as there have been a number of significant events since our
year-end last March.
As previously advised, we are currently in the process of selling our
subsidiary companies, land holdings and other assets of the Group. The aim is
to realise value which is to be returned to shareholders and this process is
now at an advanced stage.
In July this year we successfully completed the sale of two businesses,
Technocover Limited and OSA Door Parts Limited. Both businesses were sold at a
significant premium to their balance sheet asset values, realising a gain to
the Group of GBP5.9 million. I would like to say thank you to all those people I
have worked with at Technocover and OSA, for the very successful years
together.
There now remain two Ensor subsidiary companies, Ellard and Wood's Packaging,
both of which are being actively marketed.
The first four months of trading in this current year, for Ellard and Wood's,
is ahead of the result at the same time last year. We are cautiously optimistic
for the full year, but remain constantly aware of the impact of exchange rates
on our costs. We are working hard to maintain margins in a competitive market
and have been able to offset some of the effects of a weakened pound by forward
buying of currency.
Our 31 July 2016 balance sheet includes the book values of Ellard, Wood's, our
land holding at Brackley and over GBP10m of cash.
As we are unsure when sales of Ellard, Wood's and the Brackley land will be
completed, we feel that this would be a suitable time to make an interim
capital distribution to shareholders, with a further capital distribution
proposed when they are completed. However, due to uncertainty over the tax
treatment of such a distribution, we do not propose to do so at this time.
I know this has been an intriguing time for shareholders and therefore may I
thank you for your continued interest.

Notes to the Interim Report
1. Basis of preparation
The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2016, prepared under IFRS,
have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies and received an unqualified
audit report.
The unaudited results for the four months ended 31 July 2016 have been prepared
in accordance the same accounting policies as are disclosed in those statutory
accounts, other than the departure from International Financial Reporting
Standards ("IFRSs") detailed below, which has been made in order to enhance the
information available to shareholders in this instance. The unaudited results
do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 435 of the
Companies Act 2006.
The interim report has not been prepared in accordance with IAS34,
"International Financial Reporting" in that it does not contain full disclosure
of accounting policies and does not detail compliance with other standards:
1.1 Definition of discontinued operations
Certain of the disposals of subsidiaries made in this period
and the prior year do not fulfil the strict requirements of IFRS 5 for
classification as discontinued operations, because of their size in relation
to the rest of the group. However, we have elected to present
these businesses as discontinued, in both periods, in order that the continuing
operations of the group are comparable and show the results for
only those businesses that remain within the group's control at the period end.
2. Gain on disposal of subsidiary companies
The gains in the current period relate to the proceeds from the sales of the
company's subsidiaries, Technocover Limited and OSA Door Parts Limited, less
the carrying values of the investments and costs of realisation. The gain in
the year ended 31 March 2016 relates to the disposal of the company's
subsidiary, Ensor Building Products Limited.
3. Income tax expense
The income tax expense is calculated using the estimated tax rate for
the year ended 31 March 2017. Tax has not been provided against the
exceptional gains on disposals of subsidiaries because such gains are exempted
under the Substantial Shareholdings Exemption granted by the Taxation of
Chargeable Gains Act 1992.
4. Discontinued operations
The results for the year ended 31 March 2016 have been restated to treat the
results of the subsidiaries disposed of since 1 April 2015 as discontinued,
regardless of their treatment in the statutory accounts for the year ended 31
March 2016. The subsidiaries concerned are Ensor Building Products Limited,
Technocover Limited and OSA Door Parts Limited.
For this reason, the Consolidated Income Statement is described as unaudited as
the comparative figures do not agree to the audited financial statements for
the year ended 31 March 2016. However the profit for the period attributable to
equity shareholders of the parent company agrees in total to the audited
financial statements.
5. Earnings per share
The calculation of earnings per share for the period is based on the profit for
the period divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue,
being 29,895,976 (year ended 31 March 2016: 29,895,976). There were no
financial instruments in existence in either of these periods that would serve
to dilute the shareholdings.
