Greenhouse is a Jersey domiciled closed-ended investment company, created to invest in sustainable environmental technologies. Any acquisition must have a market ready or near market ready patentable green technology with scalable potential. The Fund aims to maximise value by the subsequent flotation, restructuring, joint venture or sale of technologies it develops. Financial performance As at 30 June 2007, Greenhouse had net assets of #13,574,110 (2006: #13,998,150), including cash of #6,672,737 (2006: #8,853,365) and investments of #6,927,212 (2006: #5,158,861). The loss for the period was #238,052 (2006: #118,827) and the period end NAV was 8.74p (2006: 9.02p). The loss increased due to additional due diligence costs compared to the previous period. Portfolio update Molectra Australia Pty Ltd ('Molectra') Greenhouse has made two convertible investments; #750,000 on 27th March 2006 and #1.2m on 26th March 2007 in Molectra. These convertible instruments were exercised after the period end, giving the Company a controlling 58% equity stake. Molectra has developed a sustainable process that re-cycles and recovers materials including crumb rubber, oil and carbon from used vehicle tyres. The technology has been developed over the last 10 years and has won many international awards and prizes during this time, including the 2007 DaimlerChrysler Australian Environmental Research Award. Greenhouse's investment enabled Molectra's existing plant to be scaled up to process up to 250,000 tyres per year, and provided the infrastructure required to deliver the solution on a larger scale. Greenhouse commissioned a report from Wiley & Co. ("Wiley"), to analyse the plant's operation, which was received in March 2007. Wiley is an internationally renowned engineering firm that was involved in the construction of the plant from inception. The report examined the construction, commissioning and operation of the pilot plant and the operating and capital costs associated with a scale up from pilot to full-scale plant. The Wiley report strongly endorses the economic and commercial viability of the Molectra process. This proposed full-scale plant is designed to process c.2.6 million tyres per year or 26,000 tonnes, which is ten-times the capacity of the current pilot plant. It is anticipated that a full scale plant will cost c.#6 million to build and take c.12 months to construct. On 2nd August, following the period covered by these accounts, Greenhouse issued a draw down loan of up to AUS$4.5m to Molectra. The funds will be used to secure a site for the establishment of the full-scale Molectra plant. A site outside Sydney in New South Wales, Australia, has been identified and final negotiations are now taking place with the authorities. The secured loan bears interest and is repayable by Molectra within a year, or on demand by Greenhouse. Other investments On 29 June 2006 Greenhouse acquired five Bauxsol technology sub-licences from Virotec International Ltd. Greenhouse continues to further develop the Bauxsol technologies, using both academic and commercial partners from within industry. Once an application has been fully commercialised, Greenhouse will consider the strategic options available so as to maximise shareholder value. A number of other investment opportunities to further strengthen the portfolio are currently being considered by Greenhouse, and announcements will be made in due course. Cash Retained cash and equivalents was #6,672,737 at 30th June. The future The Wiley report and recent DaimlerChrysler Australian Environmental Research Award are major validations of the Molectra technology and its economics. This is further validation of the sustainable benefits Molectra brings to the waste tyre issue, and ensures the best possible start for the commercialisation of the technology as its expansion and scale up continues. Commercialisation of their technology continues rapidly, including the imminent purchase of its first full-scale operating site. Further commercial developments within Molectra are actively being considered. Greenhouse will also continue to seek out new sustainable technologies, whilst developing the pipeline of technologies it has acquired and I look forward to Molectra's future with great optimism.
