CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 MARCH 2003
On behalf of your board I am pleased to present the accounts for the 52 week period ended 30th
March 2003.
Results
The group achieved a pre-tax profit of #579,156 (2002 loss #89,280) on turnover of #8,229,760
(2002 #81,653). EBITDA amounted to #947,572 (2002 loss #85,020). Earnings per share grew to
0.15 pence compared with a loss of 0.35 pence per share last year.
As Top Ten Bingo Limited was acquired shortly before the last year end, the comparative figures
for the group incorporate only four days of trading of the enlarged company, and as such the
consolidated profit and loss account does not provide meaningful comparative information.
Turnover in respect of the underlying trading company, Top Ten Bingo Limited, has increased to
#8,187,321 for the 52 weeks ended 30th March 2003 (53 weeks ended 31st March 2002: #7,552,935),
an increase of 8.4%. These results include turnover of #648,048 relating to three months of
trading from Welcome Social Clubs Limited, which was acquired on 23rd December 2002, and which
I am delighted to say has exceeded our original expectations.
Dividends
Whilst the Company is cash generative your Board has decided to retain cash within the business
in anticipation of further growth and does not recommend the payment of a dividend in respect
of the year under review. Your Board will keep the dividend policy under review and I am
hopeful that a maiden dividend will be declared during the current financial year.
Outlook
We are pleased that the new Welcome clubs are trading ahead of expectations and with the
exception of one club, whose admissions have been temporarily affected by a new club opening in
the town, all our clubs are trading to budget.
The Bingo Industry has seen a marked improvement with the first phase of Gaming Deregulation
providing the opportunity to increase profitability, which should be reflected in the current
year, whereby we are now able to operate additional gaming machines in each club with higher
payouts. Other benefits are expected when the proposed changes in the Gaming Legislation are
implemented.
We have had bank support both to acquire Welcome and to enable the Company to continue on a
programme of acquisitions and opening of new sites upon which your Board hopes to report in the
future.
We look forward to another successful year.
