Interim results for six months ended 30th June 2003
Chairman's Interim Statement
Interim Results
For the six-month period to 30th June 2003, the Group's turnover was Euro8,160,000
(2002: Euro10,205,000). The Group incurred a loss after taxation of Euro7,824,000
(2002: Euro1,357,000), after accounting for goodwill amortisation of Euro275,000
(Euro276,000). The increase in the loss after taxation is mainly due to interest
being expensed, which was capitalized in the June 2002 financial accounts, and
to a fee of Euro3,975,000 being charged by Uni-Invest N.V. in relation to the
Standstill Agreement signed in January 2003.
Review of events
The profitability of the Casino's gaming activities has improved in the six
months ended 30th June 2003 due to the restructuring within the Casino itself.
Operating profit for the Casino's gaming activities was Euro133,000 (2002: loss
Euro14,000).
There is still not much progress on the Can Vinyes project in Barcelona due to a
moratorium that has been issued with respect to building applications, which we
are still in the process of contesting.
During the six months ended 30th June 2003 one apartment in the Santa Ponsa
shopping complex was sold with options on another apartment and six offices, the
sale of which have since been completed.
The Dutch portfolio of investment property continues to perform well and makes a
significant contribution to the Group results. Although the Group intends to
invest in additional commercial property, due to its reinvestment obligation, no
further acquisitions were made during the period. Should the Group not acquire
any further commercial property before 31st December 2003 a tax liability of
Euro1.8 million will become payable.
Outlook
The Company is still suffering from liquidity problems. However with the
standstill agreement, which has been extended to 30 June 2004, in place and the
support of the largest creditor, we remain positive about the future outcome.

4. Loss per share has been calculated on the basis of a weighted average
number of ordinary shares in issue during the period of 545,181,446. The
share options outstanding have no dilutive effect on earnings per share.
5. The financial information for the year ended 31st December 2002 is
abridged. The full accounts have been filed with the Registrar of
Companies. The report of the auditors on the accounts was unqualified, but
it did contain an emphasis of matter with respect to the fundamental
uncertainty over the ability of the Company to continue in existence
depending on meeting future cash flow forecasts or obtaining further
financing as required and over the recoverability of the cost of the
development land in Spain.
The figures for the six months ended 30th June 2003 have not been audited.
