Chairman's Statement
Trading
Our results for the half year to 30 November 2018 were disappointing with a pre-tax loss of GBP492,000 compared to a profit of GBP190,000 for the comparable period in 2017. This resulted in part from the uncertain and weak markets depressing our commission revenues but also from some non-recurring items affecting both our costs and fee revenues.
Our commission revenues were some GBP246,000 lower than the prior year comparative which represents a reduction of approximately 20%. Our operating expenses increased by 30% to GBP2.544 million (2017: GBP1.955 million) for a number of reasons. Firstly we incurred non-recurring items relating to the acquisition of Fieldings Investment Management Limited. These included additional audit fees relating to determining the application of appropriate acquisition accounting rules, as well as agreed deferred consideration bonus payments which fell due, the latter of which amounted to GBP129,000.
Secondly a review of management fee revenue and a subsequent tightening of revenue recognition criteria resulted in a one-off revenue adjustment of GBP118,000 in the period.
Lastly, as we have previously highlighted, the increasing burden of regulation has resulted in a general increase in our operating expenses. These relate to the continued implementation of MiFID II specifically the costs and charges element, initial work on the Senior Managers and Certification Regime which is due for implementation in December 2019 and further development of our internal controls around the Client Money and Assets rules (CASS).
On a more positive note we are pleased with the successful launch in May 2018 of our own unit trust, Ocean UK Equity. Despite having to navigate a very challenging period for global markets the fund has delivered a top quartile performance over its first six months.
Balance Sheet
We continue to maintain our strong financial position with our cash balance standing at GBP2,014,000 at the period end. On the 30th January 2019 the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) announced its acquisition of an aggregate 4.92% stake in Euroclear's share capital for EUR278.5 million, which equates to a value of EUR1,798 per share. We believe this commercial collaboration will benefit both customers and shareholders alike further strengthening the value of our holding of 3,618 shares in Euroclear.
Dividend
The Board has resolved not to pay an interim dividend for the six month period to 30th November 2018.
Markets
The current market outlook is less clear than it has been for many years. We have the major uncertainties of the Federal Reserve's future interest rate policy and their quantitative tightening, the US/China trade discussions, Brexit and the gentle slide of the Eurozone into recession to contend with. Although markets have recovered well since the start of the year a certain degree of caution is warranted.
Outlook
The second half of our financial year began during a period of weak markets with December being particularly quiet. However sentiment turned quickly in January and markets have continued to improve through February. We now anticipate a busy period leading up to the end of the UK income tax year.

Independent Review Report to Fiske plc
We have been engaged by the Group to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 November 2018 which comprise the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated cash flow statement and the related notes 1 to 4. We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.
This report is made solely to the Group in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Group those matters we are required to state to them in an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Group, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.
Directors' responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the AIM Rules of the London Stock Exchange.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies the Group intends to use in preparing its next annual financial statements.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Group a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 November 2018 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with accounting policies the Group intends to use in preparing its next annual financial statements and the AIM Rules of the London Stock Exchange.

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements
1. Basis of preparation
The financial information contained in this half-yearly financial report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.
The figures and financial information for the period ended 31 May 2018 are extracted from the latest published audited financial statements of the Group and do not constitute the statutory financial statements for that period. The audited financial statements for the period ended 31 May 2018 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The report of the independent auditors on those financial statements contained no qualification or statement under section 498(2) or section 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The condensed set of financial statements has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union. The financial information has been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation of certain financial instruments. The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are followed in these condensed set of financial statements as applied in the Group's latest, and intends to use in preparing its next, annual audited financial statements. While the financial figures included in this half-yearly report have been computed in accordance with IFRSs applicable to interim periods, this half-yearly report does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as that term is defined in IAS 34.
In the current period, no standards or interpretations, new or revised, have been adopted that have had a significant impact on the amounts reported in the financial statements. This is the first set of the Group's financial statements where IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 have been applied. These new standards were adopted from 1 June 2018 and have not had a significant impact on the amounts reported in these financial statements.
Under IAS 27 these financial statements are prepared on a consolidated basis where the Group consists of Fiske plc, the parent, with the following subsidiaries in which it owns 100% of the voting rights:
VOR Financial Strategy Limited
Ionian Group Limited
Fiske Nominees Limited
Fieldings Investment Management Limited
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing this half-yearly financial report.
There has been no impact on the classification and measurement of the Group's financial assets and liabilities, except for equity assets that were classified as available--for--sale under IAS 39 which, at the date of initial application of IFRS 9, the Group is applying the Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income ("FVOCI") option. A review of the expected credit loss on receivables has been conducted and the impact thereof is expected to be de-minimis.
2. Taxation
No tax credit on the loss for the period has been recognised for the six months to 30 November 2018, due to uncertainty over sufficient future taxable profits being available.
3. Dividends paid
Dividends paid in the first period of 2019 GBPnil (2018 - GBPnil).
4. IAS39 and IFRS9
The change in classification of the Euroclear holding from IAS39 to IFRS9 will result in the financial asset continuing to be valued at fair value but subsequent gains or losses will be recognised in other comprehensive income rather than profit and loss
