Energiser Invts PLC Half-yearly Report

Energiser Investments plc 
 
Consolidated unaudited half-yearly financial report for the period ended 30 
June 2015 
 
Interim Chairman's Statement 
 
I present my first interim report to the shareholders since my appointment on 
26 February 2015, which includes the results for the half year ended 30 June 
2015 and the financial position as at that date. 
 
Results 
 
I am pleased to report that the Group has made a profit before and after 
taxation of GBP20,000 (2014: loss GBP120,000) during the six months to 30 June 2015 
which is predominantly due to a fair value adjustment to the investment 
properties in Wellingborough. This translates into a profit per share of 0.04p 
(2014: loss 0.27p). Our investment of residential properties in Wellingborough 
generated GBP53,000 (2014: GBP48,000) of net rental income.  Administrative 
expenses were GBP25,000 (2014: GBP35,000).  Interest payable on the Group's 
borrowings has increased to GBP173,000 (2014: GBP141,000) due to the investment in 
Kingswood Park. The Group's net assets have decreased to GBP422,000 (2014: GBP 
699,000) which equates to 0.96p per share (2014: 1.60p per share). The decrease 
in net assets is due to a reduction in the fair value of the mezzanine funding 
provided for Kingswood Park, Surrey, due to a delay in the build programme 
which, in turn, has delayed the sales programme. 
 
The value of investment properties has increased during the period ended 30 
June 2015 to GBP2,900,000 (2014: GBP2,666,000) and current assets have increased by 
GBP452,000, mainly as a result of additional mezzanine funding provided for the 
development at Kingswood Park, Surrey and a decrease in the fair value of this 
arrangement. 
 
The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend. 
 
Operations 
 
Our residential investment portfolio of 20 properties in Wellingborough is 
fully let and generated gross rental income of GBP72,000 and after associated 
operating costs of GBP18,000 and overheads of GBP1,000, resulted in net rental 
income of GBP53,000.  The properties continue to be let on short term tenancies. 
 
The existing loan with Barclays Bank in relation to the investment properties 
at Wellingborough has been extend for a period of 3 years 
 
Construction of the 12 unit development at Kingswood Park, Surrey is nearing 
completion and 4 out of the 12 properties have been reserved with legal 
completions expected shortly. The current market conditions in the housing 
market are strong and we expect all the properties to be sold by early 2016. 
 
Outlook 
 
The Group is continuing to rebuild shareholders' funds by way of its current 
activities and it is expected that this will continue for the foreseeable 
future.

Diluted earnings per share is taken as equal to basic earnings per share as the

approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 30 September 2015. 
 
The financial information set out in this half-yearly financial report does not 
constitute statutory accounts as defined in Sections 434(3) and 435(3) of the

financial statements was unqualified and did not contain any statement under 
Section 498(2) or Section 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006. 
 
2. Basis of preparation 
 
This consolidated half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance 
with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. 
 
The consolidated half-yearly financial report should be read in conjunction 
with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014, which 
have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. 
 
3. Accounting policies 
 
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual 
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014, as described in those 
financial statements other than that stated below: 
 
Critical judgements in applying the accounting policies 
 
Key sources of estimation uncertainty 
 
Fair value of profit on mezzanine funding arrangement 
 
The fair value of the mezzanine funding arrangement includes estimates as to 
the timing and value of future cash flows and the underlying profitability of 
the development. The estimates are formed based on information provided by the 
developer. The Group believes that the directors' knowledge and experience in 
the sector means they are well placed to critically assess this information and 
to make conclusions as appropriate. 
 
4. Earnings/(loss) per ordinary share 
 
The earnings/(loss) per ordinary share is based on the weighted average number 
of ordinary shares in issue during the period of 43,787,956 ordinary shares of 
0.1p (2014: 43,787,956 ordinary shares of 0.1p) and the following figures:

Diluted earnings per share is taken as equal to basic earnings per share as the 
Group's average share price during the period is lower than the exercise price 
and therefore the effect of including share options is anti-dilutive.
