Chairman's statement

 

I report the Company's results for the half year ended 31 October 2006.  The
loss for the period after taxation and minority interests was £259,125 (2005:
loss of £265,971), which represents a loss per share of 0.71p (2005: loss per
share of 1.24p).

 

The Company currently owns and operates two pub / hotel / restaurant sites,
which are: The Moss Cottage in Ripley, Derbyshire and The Royal Oak in
Leominster, Herefordshire.  We also own the freehold interest of The Three Tuns
in Pettistree, Suffolk, which is leased out to private tenants under a three
year lease agreement, and the freehold property at Fishmore Hall near Ludlow,
Shropshire which is currently in the process of being sold.

 

Since my statement at the time of the annual results, difficult market
conditions have unfortunately continued and this has meant that we again
incurred trading losses in the interim period.

 

We still manage to achieve good hotel occupancy levels during the week, but
continue to see lower than anticipated levels of week-end break bookings.  This
has had a negative impact on turnover.  Overall we believe that our
rationalisation and cost cutting measures have ensured that our sites are
positioned to return to profitability when market conditions improve, and we
hope that a break even position can be achieved in the short term.

 

As reported in my last statement the previously planned refurbishment and
development of Fishmore Hall is unfortunately no longer moving forward and the
decision to sell the site was taken.  The site is currently being marketed by
two joint agents and we have received an encouraging level of interest and we
hope to be able to announce a sale of this site shortly.

 

As I commented in my annual statement, the Board had reviewed the need for the
Company to be able to raise finance and the necessary resolutions to reorganise
the share capital were approved at the EGM held on 9 October 2006.  Following
the release of these interim results, the Directors propose to seek further
equity funding to provide working capital for the continuity of the Company
until the trading conditions improve.

 

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my colleagues and our
dedicated employees for their hard work during these continuing difficult
trading times.

Notes to the Interim Report for the six months ended 31 October 2006

 

1 Accounting policies                                                    
                                                                         
                                                                         
                                                                         
  The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 
  applicable accounting standards and under the historical cost          
  convention.  The principal accounting policies of the Company have     
  remained unchanged from those set out in the Company's 2006 annual     
  report and financial statements.                                       
                                                                         

 

2 Basis of consolidation                                                 
                                                                         
                                                                         
                                                                         
  The consolidated interim financial statements consolidate those of the 
  Company and its subsidiary undertakings.  Intra-group transactions have
  been eliminated in full.                                               
                                                                         

 

3 Basis of preparation                                                   
                                                                         
                                                                         
                                                                         
  The financial information set out in this report does not constitute   
  statutory accounts as defined in section 240 of the Companies Act      
  1985.  The figures for the year ended 30 April 2006 have been extracted
  from the statutory financial statements, which have been filed with the
  Registrar of Companies.  The auditors' report on those financial       
  statements was unqualified.                                            
                                                                         

 

4 Dividends                                                          
                                                                     
                                                                     
                                                                     
  No dividend is proposed for the six months ended 31 October 2006.  
                                                                     

 

5 Taxation                                                               
                                                                         
                                                                         
                                                                         
  On the grounds that year to date losses have been made which are not   
  expected to be relieved in the forthcoming period, there is no taxation
  charged or credited to the profit and loss account in this period.     
                                                                         

 

6 Loss per share                                                       
                                                                       
                                                                       
                                                                       
  The calculation of the basic loss per share is based on the loss on  
  ordinary activities after tax and minority interests and on the      
  weighted average number of shares in issue during the period.  The   
  impact of share options is anti dilutive.  The loss and weighted     
  average number of shares used in the calculations are set out below: 
                                                                       
                                                                       
                                                                       
                                      Weighted average number
