Claims People Group PLC

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Highlights:
* Turnover up 72%
* Profitability achieved
* New client wins
* Acquisition programme initiated
The Board of The Claims People Group plc announces the interim results for the
six months ended 30 June 2003.
Turnover for the six months improved by 72% from #533,469 to #916,990 compared
to the same period last year (full year 2003 #1,035,024) resulting in a profit
of #5,346 compared to a loss of #100,451 for the corresponding period last year.
This profit achievement represents an important milestone in the development of
the business and continues the pattern of improvement from the full year ended
31 December 2002 whereby the year's losses were reduced to #304,032 compared
with a losses of #934,186 for the previous financial year.
The commencement of the new Liverpool Victoria contract assisted the first six
months results as did increased support from Norwich Union and HSBC. I reported
in May of this year that the new 'Verify' product had been rolled out and was
being taken up by Axa, Chaucer and Hastings Direct and we have recently
introduced this new product to British Telecom as an addition to the liability
claims handling services we already provide to this important corporate client.
Acquisition of CCS Global UK
Further to our recent fundraising exercise The Claims People Group plc (TCP) has
acquired the claims handling and UK loss adjusting division of CCS Global from
Axis (Global) UK Limited for a maximum consideration of #355,000.
The UK loss adjusting and claims management business acquired generated
approximately #500,000 (unaudited) of turnover in calendar year 2002. The
consideration is structured with an upfront payment of #105,000 followed by
scheduled payments based upon the continuing business achieving agreed turnover
benchmarks. The deal provides for the transfer of key personnel and TCP will
take over the CCS regional offices in Newcastle and Stockport. The CCS London
office operation will be absorbed into the existing TCP offices in Southwark.
The CCS business represents an important first acquisition for the Group. The
business acquired is complimentary to the existing Claims People offering with
no overlap of client base. The brand name of CCS will be retained and we are
confident that, with the transfer of work in progress and essential CCS staff,
the new division will immediately contribute towards our profitable growth.
The directors view the future prospects, both in terms of organic growth and
earnings enhancing acquisitions, with confidence. We have a strong and committed
team and I look forward to reporting to you further as we pursue future
opportunities.
