Eyeconomy's enhanced ad-serving system

Media Corporation plc, a leading AIM quoted media and online gaming group, is pleased to announce that it has recently completed a phase of the planned upgrade to the advertising delivery system at Eyeconomy, the Group's wholly owned online advertising division.

The upgrade provides Eyeconomy with greater capacity to deliver its proprietary advertising formats ("Sub Sites") as well as making enhanced reporting tools available to advertisers to track campaigns. Previously, peak advert distribution volume was estimated at 30 million Sub Sites per month. Following completion of the upgrade, the Directors estimate that peak capacity has increased to approximately 150 million Sub Sites per month. Current run-rate figures are estimated at 50 million Sub Sites which includes over 100 individual campaigns for leading brands including Vodafone, UPS and PKR.com.

The increased capacity and functionality will allow Eyeconomy to deliver larger campaigns whilst also servicing a greater number of clients simultaneously. The Directors also believe that the increased system functionality will lead to decreased CPA (cost per acquisition) resulting in the ability to achieve higher sales margins.

Justin Drummond, Media Corporation's CEO, commented:

"We have continued to invest in the Group's proprietary advertising system and sales infrastructure making this impressive achievement possible. Eyeconomy has now achieved critical mass on many levels and should continue to go from strength to strength, particularly with the back-drop of an improving economic outlook."

Update re: Google Penalty

Media Corporation plc, a leading AIM quoted advertising network and Internet publishing group, is pleased to announce that the Google penalty on two of the Group's major websites was lifted on Friday 16th October 2009.

The effect of the Google penalty, which was imposed on www.gambling.com and www.creditcardexpert.co.uk in October 2007, considerably reduced the Group's ranking in Google's search results and so significantly reduced inbound visitor traffic from Google which, in turn, adversely impacted revenues on these websites. The removal of this penalty, which was imposed for unknown reasons, together with the re-launch of Gambling.com should result in a marked improvement in the revenue generated through these websites.

In the year ended September 2007, www.gambling.com generated a gross margin of £1,065,000 and, following the penalty, gross margin reduced by 62 per cent. to £410,000.

In addition, in the year ended September 2007, www.creditcardexpert.co.uk generated a gross margin of £165,000. In the year ended September 2008, this reduced to £73,000, representing a fall of 56 per cent.

Justin Drummond, CEO of Media Corp, commented:

"The removal of the Google penalty is a hugely significant event for Media Corp and should sharply increase the revenues derived from these two websites. Gambling.com in particular is a major asset for Media Corp and the improvement in Google rankings combined with the imminent re-launch of www.gambling.com should see a marked improvement in revenues generated from these assets."

TRADING UPDATE

Media Corp, the AIM quoted leading advertising network and internet publishing group, is pleased to provide an update on current trading.

Following a strategic review by the Board, as stated earlier in the year, the financial performance of the Group has improved significantly during the second half of the 2009 financial year. This is due to organic growth across all business units as well as a dramatic cost reduction programme implemented by the Board and senior management team.

Eyeconomy

The Group's largest business division, the advertising network Eyeconomy, has seen a significant improvement in trading in the third quarter of the 2009 financial year with revenues increasing from £664,000 to £785,000; an increase of over 18.2% compared with the second quarter of 2009.

Eyeconomy has seen a very strong start to the fourth quarter with record sales and advertising revenues in July 2009. Orders exceeded £400,000, with Eyeconomy delivering over 38 million sub-sites as well as serving approximately 200 million banner adverts in July 2009.

Eyeconomy has run sizable and very successful advertising campaigns for a number of leading brands including Vodafone, British Gas and UPS.

With a very strong pipeline of forward orders it is anticipated that this trend will continue for the remainder of the financial year.

Publishing

The publishing business is starting to show the benefits of the significant investment that the Group has made in the re-design, development and high quality editorial content produced by the in-house publishing team.

This investment has seen the Group's websites grow significantly over the past months:

• Sport.co.uk - Sport.co.uk has grown enormously since its launch in 2008 and now receives over two million monthly visitors as a result of excellent content and search engine optimisation.
• Onthebox.com - Following a recent re-launch, has established its position as the UK's most popular online TV guide and now offers further services including cinema and radio listings.
• Gambling.com - Sara Vincent, who successfully established and managed Casino.co.uk for seven years before its £3.6 million sale to Cryptologic, has recently taken charge of Gambling.com. Sara has been charged with realigning the business model and redeveloping the site to increase both the visibility and profitability of the website. It is expected that the Company will be in a position to announce a number of strategic partnerships over the coming months. It is anticipated these partnerships will greatly improve both the revenues and value of Gambling.com as a strategic asset within the European gaming market.

In addition, there are now renewed indications that there could be a change to the US anti-online gaming laws and a new legislative framework for online gaming in the US.

These changes would be hugely beneficial for Gambling.com, the Group's principal publishing asset, and would significantly increase the profitability and enhance the value of this asset.

The Group remains in an excellent financial position with a very strong cash reserves and no debt. The Board has continued to evaluate a number of strategic acquisitions and merger opportunities.

Justin Drummond, CEO of Media Corporation plc commented:

"Following a challenging period for the Group, I am pleased to report that we are now seeing the financial benefit of the strategic decisions made earlier in the year. We have streamlined our operating costs and refocused the business on its most profitable areas.

"This strategy has seen the Group's financial performance improve significantly during the financial year.

"The Group continues to be well funded and the Board continues to view the future with considerable optimism."

Interim results for the six months ended 31 March 2009

The Board of Media Corporation plc, a leading advertising network and internet publisher, is pleased to announce interim results for the period ended 31 March 2009.

Financial Highlights

• Revenues increased 18% to £2 million (2008: £1.7 million)
• Consolidated Group net assets of £7.2 million (2008: £18.9 million)
• Cash balances at period end of £2.5 million (2008: £4.9 million)

Other Highlights

• Contract with Express Newspapers
• Completion of authorised 10% share buyback for consideration of £718,000.

Justin Drummond, CEO of Media Corporation plc commented:

This has been another challenging period for the Group; the US anti-gaming legislation has continued to impact revenues in Gambling.com and the difficult economic environment has reduced growth in the Group's advertising network Eyeconomy.

The Group's revenue growth reflects the investment the group has made in the Eyeconomy publishes and sales teams despite the hard market conditions. However, since the financial year-end the Board has implemented a wide-ranging review of its businesses and approved a plan to reduce costs in-line with current revenues. The benefits of these significant cost reductions will largely benefit the Group in the second half of the 2009 financial year due to contractual obligations. The Group remains to be well funded and is positioned well to take advantage of the economic downturn.

Trading update

Whilst a challenging period there were early signs of a recovery in trading in the Group's the advertising network division, Eyeconomy, towards the end of the financial period and it is anticipated that this trend will continue in the second half of the financial year. In addition, following the change in political leadership in the US, there is now a strong chance of a change in the US gaming laws and a new legislative framework for online gaming in the US. These changes would be hugely beneficial for Gambling.com, the Group's principal publishing asset, and would significantly increase the profitability and value of this asset.

Offer period

On 20 March 2009 the Company announced that it was in early stage discussions which may or may not lead to an offer being made for the Company. All such discussions have now ceased. Accordingly, the Company is no longer in an offer period for the purposes of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers.

Notes to the accounts

1. Basis of preparation

The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2009 has been prepared on an historical cost basis and in accordance with the accounting policies that will apply for the year ended 30 September 2009, which will follow the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the interpretations as endorsed by the European Union.

The comparatives for full year ended 30 September 2008 are based on the latest published audited accounts.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all of its subsidiary undertakings. A subsidiary is an entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

The financial statements of subsidiary undertakings are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The results of subsidiary undertakings have been included from the date of acquisition using the merger method of accounting or the purchase method of accounting as appropriate.

The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they formed a single entity. Inter-company transactions and balances between Group companies are therefore eliminated in full.

Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes. Sales of goods are recognised when goods are delivered and title has passed. Sales of services are recognised when the service has been completed and invoiced to the customer.

Goodwill

The directors undertake an impairment review of goodwill at the end of each annual reporting period.

2. Segmental analyses

3. Taxation

There is no provision for UK Corporation tax due to tax losses. Taxation £nil (2008 £nil)

Deferred tax is provided in full in respect of taxation deferred by timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. Recognition of the deferred tax asset is limited to the extent that the company anticipates making sufficient taxable profits in the future to absorb the reversal of the underlying timing differences. The deferred tax balance has not been discounted. The Group has a deferred tax asset of £Nil (2008: £57,693).

4. Earnings per ordinary share

5. Dividends

The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend.

Media Corporation plc Final Results for the year ended 30 September 2008

Media Corporation plc ("Media Corp" or "the Company"), a leading internet media and advertising group focused on website publishing and online advertising, is pleased to announce its preliminary results for the year ended 30 September 2008.

Highlights

• Gross Profit of £1.4m (£2.5m)
• Cash Balances at the year end £3.8m (£6.3m)
• Consolidated Net Assets £8.0m (19.5m)
• Acquisition and successful launch of Sport.co.uk
• Partnership with Yahoo! provides search results across the Group's extensive network of websites
• Contract with Express Newspapers to sell advertisements on online titles including the Express, Daily Star and OK magazine

Chairman's Statement

Trading across the Group during the 2008 financial year has been difficult as was outlined in the trading update at the end of September 2008.

This is disappointing, as the Group has grown considerably and traded profitably since 2005.

The Group's principal publishing asset Gambling.com has continued to be adversely affected by the ongoing ban on online gambling in the US. Furthermore the ongoing Google penalty, which has affected both Gambling.com and Creditcardexpert.co.uk, has caused a further reduction in revenues. These external factors were initially highlighted in the interims and have continued to hamper the performance of this business, despite the concerted efforts of the management and its advisers.

Since the financial year-end the Board has implemented a wide-ranging review of its businesses and approved a plan to reduce costs in-line with current revenues.

Despite the above, the Board remains positive that continued growth in the advertising network business will further enhance value for shareholders in the medium term and, despite poor recent performance in the publishing division, the portfolio of assets remains very valuable.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Media Corporation has made good progress during 2008 whilst formulating and consolidating its ongoing strategy. As previously announced during the year, the ongoing strategy was to invest in the business. This investment took place in personnel and technology and has resulted in streamlined operations during the financial year. As identified in the Chairman's Statement, the Group's principal publishing asset Gambling.com has continued to be adversely affected by the ongoing ban on online gambling in the US. The business transformation has helped to reduced reliance on advertising revenues from the online gaming sector

The Group has two principal divisions, Advertising Network and Internet Publishing:

Advertising Network

The Advertising Network business Eyeconomy was established in 1996 and is a separate operating division of Media Corporation. Eyeconomy specialises in online media planning as well as buying and managing online media campaigns for clients including AOL, Dell, T-Mobile and American Express.

The division currently:

• produces dynamic and engaging online advertising solutions including exit traffic (Subsites), rich-media floating toolbar (SubLines) and has recently launched a new online advertising division
• offers a total reach of 32 million unique users every month, from over 800 quality host sites in all major channels including Finance, Travel, Motors, Sport, Male/Female, Student/Youth, Property, Entertainment, Film, Music and TV, Mobile/Gadget and Recruitment
• produces in-house creative media
• has launched a new Brand team with successful contract win with the Express Newspaper group with over £2 million potential revenue.
• is expanding - the sales team has more than doubled in size during the financial year.
• is seeing return value on significant presence at trade shows and in trade PR

Internet Publishing

Media Corporation has a diverse publishing division specialising in premium destinations and portals.

Our impressive portfolio of websites includes a number of market-leading sites including www.onthebox.com (UK's definitive TV listings and entertainment guide with over 1.5 million unique visitors per month), www.sport.co.uk (Sport content site that within 8 months generated 1.2 million unique visitors), www.flightcomparison.co.uk (a leading flight booking portal), Gambling.com (a comprehensive gambling and sports portal providing industry news, tips and strategies) and www.creditcardexpert.co.uk (a credit card comparison website).

In addition, the Group has over a thousand domain names. The Group has in depth expertise in developing and monetising online brands and has significant value in its publishing division. This was clearly illustrated in the value achieved by the sale of www.casino.co.uk in August 2007.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

The audited results for the year ended 30 September 2008 show a turnover of £3.9m (2007: 8.3m) and this is a direct result of reduced Gaming revenues during year. Gross profit has also reduced to £1.4m (2007:£2.5m); however the gross margin has increased to 35.9% (2007: 30%). The operating loss was £11.5m (2007: profit 2.8m) and the loss in the year includes exceptional costs of £8.9m that relate mainly to Impairment of intangible assets. Advertising Network Division's revenue increased during the year by 44% to £2.52 million (2007: £1.75 m) and was in line with management expectations. Net assets were £8.0m (2007: £19.5m) and the movement was largely attributable to the impairment of the intangible assets. Cash at the end of the financial year was £3.8 (2007: 6.3m)

Current trading and prospects incorporating principal risks and uncertainties

The Board is aiming for continued growth during 2009 as we seek to maximise the potential of the Group's internet publishing assets and media businesses. The Group clearly owns very valuable internet assets, as previously demonstrated by the sale of the Casino.co.uk business for up to £3.625 million.

The current growth in the online advertising sector and an existing significant web site portfolio still owned by the Group, the Board will continue to develop the business rapidly and enhance the value of its core Internet assets, and maximise their value for the benefit of shareholders.

For the year ended 30 September 2008

Media Corporation Plc Preliminary Announcement

1 Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies

The consolidated financial statements of Media Corporation plc have been prepared in accordance with accepted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations (collectively "IFRSs") as adopted for use in the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and with those parts of the Companies Act 1985 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. These consolidated financial statements are the first Media Corporation plc financial statements to be prepared in accordance with IFRS, the transition date being 1 October 2006.

Fundamental accounting concept - going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group is a going concern. The accounts of the Group for the year ended 30 September 2008 show a loss including exceptional items for the year of £11.3 million. Exceptional items include an impairment charge of £8.9million and since the financial year end the Board has implemented a wide ranging review of its businesses and approved a plan to reduce costs in line with current revenues.

At the date of these financial statements the Group's ability to continue as a going concern reflects the net funds of £3.8 million cash available to the Group at the year end and the forecasts for the Group for the current financial year. On this basis, in the opinion of the Directors, the financial statements have been properly prepared on the assumption that the Group is a going concern.

Adoption of IFRS

For all accounting periods up to and including the year ended 30 September 2007, the Group has prepared its financial statements under UK GAAP. For accounting periods from 1 October 2007, the Group is required to prepare its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS").

The Group's first results under this basis were its interim results for the six month period ended 31 March 2008. These results represent the first annual report and accounts the Group has prepared in accordance with its accounting policies under IFRS and the comparatives for the prior year have been restated from UK GAAP to comply with IFRS. A description of how the Group's reported performance and financial position were affected by the change can be found in note 24. For the purpose of the accounts, the date of transition to IFRS is 1 October 2006.

The rules for first time adoption of IFRS are set out in IFRS 1 'First time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards'. In general, the Group is required to determine its IFRS accounting policies and apply these retrospectively to determine its opening balance sheet under IFRS. The standard allows a number of exemptions to this general principle to assist companies as they change to reporting under IFRS.

The Group has taken advantage of the following exemptions:

• Business combinations that took place prior to the date of transition have not been restated.

• All cumulative translation differences that existed at the date of transition are set to nil.

• To apply the requirements of IFRS 2 'Share Based Payments', to schemes granted after 7 November 2002.

• Investments held at the opening balance sheet date have been held at cost rather than revalued to market value.

Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the acquisition date. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in goodwill and intangible assets. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose.

In accordance with IFRS 3 'Business Combinations', any excess of acquirer's interest in the fair value of acquiree's identifiable net assets is immediately recognised in the income statement.

Computer software

Acquired computer software licenses are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring into use the specific software. These costs are amortised over their useful economic lives (3 to 5 years). Costs associated with developing and maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense when incurred, subject to the capitalization criteria of IAS 38.

Trade names/Domain names

Acquired trade names/domain names are recognised where their fair value can be reliably measured. These assets are considered to have finite lives and are tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Website costs

Acquired websites are capitalised where their fair value can be reliably measured. Development of these websites are also capitalise as long as there are considered generating revenues. These assets are considered to have finite lives and are amortised on a straight line basis over their useful economic lives of 3 years.

Impairment of non current assets

The carrying amount of the Group's assets, other than deferred income tax assets, are reviewed at each

balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Assets that have an indefinite economic life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment.

If an indicator of a possible impairment is noted, the need for any asset impairment provision is assessed by comparing the carrying value of the asset against the higher of fair value less costs to sell or value in use (recoverable amount). An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. For the purposes of assessing impairment, the assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which they have separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).

Impairment losses recognised in the income statement in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to cash-generating units (groups of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets of the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

Impairment charges are included in the administrative expenses line item in the income statement, except to the extent they reverse gains previously recognised in the statement of recognised income and expenses.

Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group (directly or indirectly) has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are excluded from the consolidation from the date on which control ceases.

The Group uses the purchase method of accounting to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement for the year.

Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on intra-group transactions are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Subsidiaries' accounting policies have been changed where necessary to ensure

consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Transactions and Minority Interests

The Group applies a policy of treating transactions with minority interests as transactions with parties external to the Group. Disposals to minority interests result in gains and losses for the Group that are recorded in the income statement. Purchases from minority interests result in goodwill, being the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of the net assets of the subsidiary.

Revenue

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, rebates, and other sales taxes or duty. Revenue arising from the provision of services is recognised when and to the extent that the Group obtains the right to consideration in exchange for the performance of its contractual obligations.

Foreign currency

The individual financial statements of each Group Company are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results and financial position of each Group Company are expressed in Pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the Company, and the presentation currency for the consolidated financial statements.

In preparing the financial statements of the individual Companies, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are included in profit or loss for the period. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items carried at fair value are included in the profit and loss account for the period except for differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognised directly in equity. For such monetary items, any exchange component of the gain or loss is also recognised directly in equity.

For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group's foreign operations are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period, in which case the exchange rates at the date of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are classified as equity and transferred to the Group's translation reserve. Such translation differences are recognised as income and expense in the period in which the operation is disposed of.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rates.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes.

Sales of goods are recognised when goods are delivered and title has passed.

Sales of services are recognised when the service has been completed and invoiced to the customer.

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount.

Leased assets

Where the assets are financed by leasing agreements that give rights approximating to ownership (finance leases), the assets are treated as if they had been purchased outright. The amount capitalised is the present value of the minimum lease payments payable over the term of the lease. The corresponding leasing commitments are shown as a liability. Where a finance lease has been awarded to a group entity at a non-commercial interest rate is applied. Depreciation on the relevant assets is charged to the income statement.

All other leases are treated as operating leases. Their annual rentals are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Current and deferred income tax

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Group's subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, if the deferred income tax arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, it is not accounted for.

Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group controls the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

2. (Loss)/earnings per share

Basic (loss)/earnings per share have been calculated by dividing (loss)/profit for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

Diluted (loss)/earnings per share have been calculated by dividing (loss)/profit for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive potential options/warrants. Losses are not subject to dilution.

3 The financial information in this announcement does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 240 Companies Act 1985 as amended ("the Act"). Statutory accounts in respect of the year ended 30 September 2007, on which the auditor's report was unqualified, did not include references to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and contain no statement under Section 237 (2) or (3) of the Act, have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors have indicated that they intend to give an unmodified report, which will not contain any statement under Section 237 (2) 4 (3) of the Act on the statutory financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2008. Copies of the company's report and financial statements will be on the companies' website and sent to shareholders today. Copies will also be available at the Registered Office of the company
