CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

Introduction

I am pleased to present the unaudited interim results for the period ended 30 June 2018.

During the period, Derriston recorded a loss of GBP138,086, and had cash assets at period end of over GBP2.1 million.

Outlook

On 30 May we announced the conditional acquisition of S(4) Capital Limited ('S(4) Capital'), a newly incorporated company which had recently completed a GBP51 million equity fund raise, of which Sir Martin Sorrell contributed GBP40 million with the balance of the funds coming from institutional and other investors.

The deal meant a change in the Company's corporate strategy into building a multi-national communication services business and a proposed name change to S(4) Capital plc. The time required to publish a prospectus with full details of the deal lead to trading in the Company's shares being suspended.

Post period end, on 10 July 2018, it was announced S(4) Capital has acquired MediaMonks Multimedia Holding B.V. ("MediaMonks"). MediaMonks has revenues of c.EUR110 million and operates through 11 offices in 10 countries spanning the United States, the United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. The combined group, with over 750 people, has clients including adidas, Amazon, GE, Google, Hyundai, JAB, Johnson & Johnson, Netflix, 3G and Weber. MediaMonks services include digital experiences, product, content and ecommerce.

The merger represents the first deal by S(4) Capital to create a new era, new media solution embracing data, content and technology. Following publication of a prospectus by the Company on 11th September, Derriston's acquisition of S(4) Capital is conditional, inter alia, on the publication of a prospectus, the passing of the Whitewash Resolution by independent shareholders as described in the announcement on 11 September and the re-admission of its shares to listing on the standard segment of the Official List, which is expected to take place on 28th September.
