Interim Results for six months ended 30 June 2010
Chairman's statement
I am pleased to present the interim results of the Company for the six month
period ended 30 June 2010 in which the Company continued to pursue its stated
investment strategy, albeit with a limited budget, in order to build value for
its shareholders.
During the period under review, the Company continued to focus on identifying
and assessing investment opportunities in the energy sector, particularly the
alternative energy sector. The Company is continuing to assess an opportunity in
the clean energy sector which was highlighted in the Company's last annual
report, as the Directors believe that considerable opportunities with the
potential to create shareholder value exist within this industry.
Very limited exploration work has been carried out on the exploration licence
over the Kyber Pass project, the Company's joint venture interest in South
Australia. The Company continues to review the data generated from this work, in
order to assess whether further investment is warranted.
During the six month period, the Company made a loss of GBP26,421 after
taxation, compared with a loss of GBP101,358 in the ten months ended 31 December
2009.

Notes to the interim results
for the six months ended 30 June 2010
1. Accounting policies
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34,
"Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union. The principal
accounting policies of Bidtimes for the interim financial statements have
remained unchanged from those set out in Bidtimes' 2009 annual report and
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as
adopted by the European Union.
2. Basis of preparation
The financial information set out in this interim report does not constitute
statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The
figures for the ten month period ended 31 December 2009, have been extracted
from the statutory financial statements, prepared under IFRS, which have been
filed with the Registrar of Companies. The auditors report on those financial
statements was unqualified, did not contain an emphasis of matter paragraph and
did not contain a statement under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.
3. Dividends
No dividend is proposed for the six months ended 30 June 2010.
4. Taxation
On the grounds that year to date losses have been made there is no taxation
charged to the profit and loss account in this period.
5. Loss per share
The calculation of the basic loss per share is based on the loss on ordinary
activities after tax and on the weighted average number of shares in issue
during the period. The impact of the share options is anti-dilutive. The loss
and weighted average number of shares used in the calculations are set out below
