Palmaris Capital Plc

("Palmaris" or the "Company")

Results for year ended 30 June 2010

and Notice of AGM

The Board of Palmaris, the investment company with a 16.1% holding in Scottish Resources Group Limited ("SRG"), which is the largest surface mining coal producer in the UK and is the Company's sole remaining investment, is pleased to present its audited results for the year ended 30 June 2010.

Key points include:

-- A loss on ordinary activities before tax of GBP167,458 (2009: GBP136 163).

-- Net assets increased 7.5% to 10p per share (2009: 9.3p), primarily relating to an unrealised gain on the investment in SRG.

-- Directors' valuation of Palmaris's 16.1% holding in Scottish Resources Group held at GBP2.40 per SRG share (96p per new SRG share after SRG 5:2 stock split on 8 July 2010) (31 December 2009 interim results increased from GBP2.20 to GBP2.40).

-- Excellent SRG results for the year ended 27 March 2010, with revenues up by 59% to GBP229.9 million (2009: GBP144.6 million), generating a profit after tax of GBP21.2 million (2009: loss after tax of GBP9.1 million).

-- Palmaris has been informed that SRG continues to monitor stock market conditions, as an IPO remains a potentially attractive option. Palmaris will update the market further as and when appropriate.

Chairman's Statement

Results

The company recorded a loss for the year of GBP167,000 against a previous year loss of GBP136,000. Interest receivable fell by a further GBP13,000 and professional fees arising from the planned stock exchange listing (IPO) of Scottish Resources Group Ltd (SRG) accounted for a further GBP17,000.

The only remaining investment held by the company is in SRG where we have a 16.1% holding. On 8 July, after our year end, SRG completed a 5:2 stock split. This means we now have 16,100,000 shares instead of 6,440 000 shares, still representing 16.1% of SRG. The directors have decided to leave the valuation of this investment at GBP2.40 per SRG share (96p per new share) having taken into account the effect of the postponed IPO. This leaves net assets at 30 June 2010 of GBP15.6M or 10.0p per Palmaris share.

Scottish Resources Group

The SRG audited accounts for the year to 27 March 2010 were announced in June 2010 to coincide with the launch of a pathfinder prospectus proposing an IPO in July 2010.

The results for the year were excellent, with the revenue up by 59% to GBP229.9M. Operating profit was GBP33.1M compared to an operating loss of GBP6.2M in the previous year, and the profit after tax was GBP21.2M as against a loss after tax of GBP9.1M.

In addition to the above, the profit before interest and depreciation was GBP48.2M - an increase from GBP16.5M the previous year.

On 28 June 2010 SRG released an announcement of its intention to seek admission of its ordinary shares to the Official List and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange by way of an IPO to institutional investors. At the same time we made an announcement to the market to alert our shareholders to the implications of SRG's decision.

An extensive marketing process was carried out by Panmure Gordon on behalf of SRG. However, although interest in SRG was considerable (particularly in the coal business), due to unfavourable market conditions which had previously resulted in several other high profile IPOs being aborted or postponed investors were unwilling to attribute sufficient value to SRG's property and renewable energy activities to make an IPO an attractive exit for SRG's shareholders at that time. It was decided that SRG shareholders would be better served by postponing the IPO.

It was obviously a disappointment that market conditions were not suitable for the IPO of SRG to be successfully implemented. However, given the positive results of the company for the year to 27 March 2010 we remain optimistic about long term value prospects.

At the time of the proposed IPO in June we announced that the directors of SRG were looking for a valuation of GBP220M for the listed business. Whilst the board of SRG continues to target a value of GBP220M, we have, in line with a more conservative accounting practice suitable for a private investment, maintained the valuation at GBP2.40 per SRG share, which is equivalent to a total value of GBP96M for SRG.

We will continue to review the valuation of SRG every six months, based on trading results.

Conclusion

The SRG results to March 2010 were very good and if this can be continued in subsequent years, the outlook for a successful realisation of value for shareholders in the future looks good.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

1. Accounting policies

A summary of the principal accounting policies, all of which have been applied consistently throughout the year and the preceding year, are as follows:

Basis of accounting:

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards. At 30 June 2010 the company had no subsidiaries and therefore its results are not consolidated. In accordance with Rule 19 of the AIM rules the company's accounts are prepared under UK GAAP rather than IFRS. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.

Turnover:

Turnover represented amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of trade discounts and VAT.

Income and expenses from investments:

Income from securities is credited to the profit and loss account when the securities are listed ex-dividend. Interest receivable, interest payable and other expenses of management are dealt with on an accruals basis.

Foreign currency transactions:

Overseas income is converted to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling on the date of the transaction.

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date.

Investments:

Fixed Assets: Listed investments are stated at values based on market prices at the balance sheet date. Unlisted investments are valued by the directors at cost less amounts written-off or on an earnings multiple basis. Provisions are made for permanent diminutions in value.

Unrealised appreciation reserve:

The unrealised appreciation reserve represents the difference between the book cost and the market value of fixed asset investments, held at the balance sheet date. This reserve is non-distributable.

Realised gains and losses on investment transactions:

Gains and losses on realisation of fixed asset investments and realised exchange differences thereon are transferred from the unrealised appreciation reserve to the capital reserve at the time of the realisation of the investment. The capital reserve is a distributable reserve.

Taxation:

The charge for taxation is based on the profit or loss for the year and takes into account deferred taxation arising on short term timing differences between the treatment of certain income for taxation and accounting purposes. Deferred taxation is provided for at anticipated tax rates on differences arising from the inclusion of items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods that differ from those in which they are included in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded only where it is expected that an asset or liability will crystallise in the foreseeable future.

                                                              2010        2009
