Preliminary Results to 31 December 2006

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction

I am pleased to report the results of Tellings Golden Miller Group Plc for the
year ended 31 December 2006. As noted in my report for 2005, following the sale
of our London Bus division, we have drawn together the remaining operations,
focused on areas where improvements are necessary and cut back costs. I am
pleased to say that while this has taken in some cases longer than I would have
wished, our efforts have been rewarded by the achievement of a significantly
improved result for the year.

Highlights

      Turnover excluding discontinued operations was £27.6 m (2005 : £26.9 m). 
                                                                               
      Operating profit ( loss) on continuing operations of £0.9 m (2005 : £(0.6) m). 
      
      Pre-tax loss £0.3 m (2005: £0.9 m before profit on sale of subsidiaries of £14.8 m).

      Net assets £9.9 m (2005: £10.0 m) equating to 43.2 pps.                  
                                                                               
      Continued tender success.                                                
                                                                               
      Group now positioned for future growth.                                  

Results

Turnover from operations, including discontinued operations of £3.5m, for the
year was £31.1m (2005:£30.1m including £3.3m from operations discontinued in
2006) reflecting a full year's contribution from acquisitions in 2005 and
tender successes in 2006. The operating profit was £0.6m (2005: loss £0.4m).
The loss before taxation was £0.3m (2005: loss £0.9m before profit on sale of
subsidiaries of £14.8m).

Net assets were £9.9m (2005: £10.0m) and debt, excluding hire purchase debt on
the vehicle fleet of £10.4m (2005:£10.9m), was £6.3m (2005: £5.5m). At the end
of 2006, debt reflects settlement of financial arrangements on assets disposed
of with discontinued operations.

Dividend

No dividend is proposed.

Operational review

In addition to the benefits of the restructuring exercise I referred to above,
during 2006 our Classic operation acquired a small coach operation, Hylton
Castle Motors Limited, with effect from 1 April 2006 and a new National Express
contract effective from 2 December 2006. Unfortunately, Classic lost its Dial a
Ride (U Call and Care Call) services with effect from July 2006.

Elsewhere, our Network Colchester bus operations are working much better and
lost mileage is now consistently less than 1% and on some routes often 0%. We
are being rewarded by higher patronage leading to better revenues.

Linkline, our contract bus operation in West London has continued to perform
well, having successfully renewed the BBC contract which it has operated for
over 10 years and won several new corporate service contracts.

Our National Express business continues to perform satisfactorily and during
the year we were able to negotiate improved rates, the full effect of which
will not be felt until 2007.

The coach market has remained competitive not only from within but also from
external competitors such as low cost airlines, on line booking and changing
travel habits of our potential customers. We have continued to manage our coach
business to meet such changes and have continued our strategy of reducing our
coach fleet in line with demand.

At the same time we purchased some new vehicles so as to upgrade our fleet to
meet the low emission zone requirements to be introduced in the London area in
June 2008. I am pleased to say that the Group is in a very strong position to
meet these standards without significant further capital expenditure. As well
as meeting these emission targets we are also assessing the merits of using
biofuels.

Current trading

We have made an encouraging start to 2007 and remain confident of achieving our
objectives for the year. Cost pressures, including fuel and drivers' payroll,
remain a challenge and we are continuing to manage these as part of our overall
cost base.

The future

Having largely reshaped the Group, the next steps for us are to continue to
improve operating margins and move the Group forward taking advantage of our
considerable skills base and resources. We will continue to look at
opportunities as they arise.

By the end of April we shall have completed the integration of our London
engineering base with recently acquired OFJ Ground Services and will have moved
our London coach operations and head office into our new premises at Heathrow
airport. Operating efficiencies and resultant cost savings are expected.

2006 saw continued merger and acquisition activity within the industry.
Nevertheless, opportunities for growth by acquisition within bus, coach or
related industries remain.

I would like to thank all of our employees and board members for their efforts
in 2006 and look forward to their continued support in the current year.

Chairman
