RNS Number : 5549D Jourdan PLC 16 September 2008 Jourdan PLC (Jourdan or the "Company") Chairman's Statement Financial Results Another year, another set of accounting principles, another year of restated comparatives with the result that it has been necessary to expand the Report and Accounts to 70 pages this year from 36 pages last year. Do our stakeholders actually benefit from the considerable expense and time devoted to meeting the ever more esoteric demands of the regulators? It seems an irresponsible waste of national resources. However, we have complied with the dictate of the law and therefore present these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting policies which are based on IFRS, and comparative figures have been restated accordingly. It has been a year of substantial progress with the disposal of the loss making business of Suncrest Surrounds Limited, a major increase in profits from continuing activities and agreement for the future funding of the Pension Fund reached with the Pension Fund Trustees. Full year sales from continuing activities increased by 11% to £21.0 million (2007: £18.8 million). Operating profit from continuing activities before amortisation and impairment of intangibles was £2,758,000 (2007: £1,758,000). However, these results have also been flattered by a £653,000 profit on the sale of the Andover factory and a surplus of £410,000 on settlement of certain pension liabilities. Profit before tax was £344,000 (2007: £1,235,000). The profit is after deducting the £1,364,000 loss on sale of the discontinued activity. Earnings per share for the year were 9.0p (2007: 33.0p). The Company remains well capitalised, with net current assets of £358,000 at 30 June 2008 (2007 net current liabilities £719,000) and the Company agreed new bank facilities with Lloyds TSB for the year beginning 1 July 2008. I am pleased to announce that your Directors recommend a dividend of 8.0p per share (2007: 8.0p) which it is proposed to pay on 21 November 2008 to members on the register on 17 October 2008. Operating Companies Westfield Medical/Clinipak, the leading UK manufacturer and supplier of single-use sterilisation packaging material to the medical and healthcare industry, achieved substantially improved sales and profits. Sales to all sectors rose, and exports in particular benefited from the devaluation of Sterling. Corby, the internationally renowned manufacturer of trouser presses, again achieved lower profits on marginally reduced sales. However, sales to export markets in currencies other than Sterling helped profitability as Sterling devalued gradually throughout the year. Corby continue to use the vacated long leasehold factory at Andover which was sold during the year for £1m with vacant possession to be given in January 2009. The Corby product continues to be manufactured at Peterlee for the time being. Nelsons Labels, which manufactures and sells a variety of fabric-based labels for mattresses, carpets and upholstery, had another disappointing year. The acquisition of Prime Packaging in March 2007, whilst strategically correct, brought a number of unforeseen problems which resulted in poor operational results exacerbated by significant legal expenses. Suncrest, the manufacturer of fireplace suites, mantelpieces and electric fires, continued to suffer from weakness in all markets. Sales were lower than the previous year and losses were incurred. However, in May the business and assets were sold to Newco 97531 Limited, a subsidiary of the CJ Group Limited which owns Magiglo Limited. This resulted in a large one off cost but eliminated the continual trading losses, leaving the Group in a much stronger and more profitable position for the future. The sale also secured the jobs of 130 employees. Group Pensions As at 30 June 2008, the pension obligation (after tax) has increased to £2,070,000 compared with £1,061,000 at 30 June 2007. By August next year further substantial progress in funding this deficit should have taken place. The Fund currently has 7 active members, reduced from 17 last year. People Our employees have worked exceptionally hard to achieve these results in difficult market conditions. Their skill and motivation is essential to Jourdan's success, and we thank them all. Outlook Following the disposal of the Suncrest business, the Group is well positioned to yield positive returns to shareholders. Whilst trading conditions remain difficult for the Group's consumer businesses, the medical packaging business is a clear leader in a strong market place with excellent prospects. In addition, the Group holds valuable property assets and has taken major steps to manage its obligations in the pensions arena. Trading for the year to date is highly satisfactory and, while the outturn for the current year cannot be certain given the prevailing economic climate, it is pleasing to report that profits of the reduced Group are well ahead of budget and the same period last year. Bearing in mind the increasingly onerous regulatory and financial requirements for small companies, your Board continues to explore all available alternatives to maximise value for shareholders.

Earnings per share The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the basic earnings per share, adjusted to allow for the issue of shares and the post-tax effect of interest on the assumed conversion of all dilutive options and other dilutive potential ordinary shares. Reconciliations of the earnings and the weighted average number of shares used in the calculations are set out below: Year ended 30 June 2008 Earnings Weighted average Earnings per share attributable to number of shares equity holders of the Parent Company £000s Number Pence Profit after tax for 307 calculation of basic earnings per share Notional taxed interest income 19 accruing on dilution Profit after tax for 326 calculation of diluted earnings per share Add-back amortisation and 336 impairment of intangible assets, net of tax Adjusted diluted profit before 662 amortisation of intangible assets Number of shares for 3,400,010 calculation of basic earnings per share Dilutive effect of potential 9,137 shares Number of shares for 3,409,147 calculation of diluted earnings per share Basic earnings per share 9.0 Diluted earnings per share 9.0 Adjusted basic earnings per 18.9 share Adjusted diluted earnings per 18.9 share Continuing Basic earnings per share 1,656 48.7 Adjusted basic earnings per 1,992 58.6 share Discontinued Basic earnings per share (1,349) (39.7) Adjusted basic earnings per (1,349) (39.7) share Year ended 30 June 2007 Earnings Weighted average Earnings per share attributable to number of shares equity holders of the Parent Company £000s Number Pence Profit after tax for 1,071 calculation of basic earnings per share Notional taxed interest income - accruing on dilution Profit after tax for 1,071 calculation of diluted earnings per share Add-back amortisation of 138 intangible assets, net of tax Adjusted diluted profit before 1,209 amortisation of intangible assets Number of shares for 3,240,886 calculation of basic earnings per share Dilutive effect of potential - shares Number of shares for 3,240,886 calculation of diluted earnings per share Basic earnings per share 33.0 Diluted earnings per share 33.0 Adjusted basic earnings per 37.3 share Adjusted diluted earnings per 37.3 share Continuing Basic earnings per share 1,313 40.5 Adjusted basic earnings per 1,451 44.8 share Discontinued Basic earnings per share (242) (7.5) Adjusted basic earnings per (242) (7.5) share For the year ended 30 June 2007 the exercise price of the share options was greater than the average middle market price of the shares. As such the shares are anti-dilutive. For the year ended 30 June 2008 the above applies for the majority of the share options. For the remainder the notional interest charge outweighs the number of free shares. As such the shares are anti-dilutive.
