                PRELIMINARY RESULTS FOR THE YEAR TO 31 MAY 2005





Chief Executive Report

Introduction



I am pleased to report that during the year ended 31st May 2005 Farsight's
business has continued to expand with sales revenues meeting plan.  Operating
costs are lower than last year and this, together with increased sales growth
has resulted in an improved financial result.



The Board has undertaken a strategic review of the business to accelerate it
towards profitablity.In this regard the board divested itself of its continuing
investment in the e-surveillance suite of software and has focused the business
upon delivering a high quality, managed monitoring service, utilising the
e-surveillance platform. With government regulations today increasingly
affecting the UK security industry and the increasing demand for remote
monitoring services, the Board believes that Farsight is well placed to take
advantage of this changing operating environment.



Results for the year

Turnover increased by approximately 50% to £1,172,000 (2004: £777,000).

The operating loss on all operations was reduced to £639,000 (2004: £1,375,000).
This loss is stated after charging £265,000 in respect of the impairment of
all fixed assets (2004: impairment of goodwill £596,000).

No dividend is recommended



Funding

The directors' have reviewed the funding requirements and have taken the
following measures:

The financial statements include details of financial support agreed with a
concert party of investors.  Prior to the 2005 financial year end Farsight Plc
had drawn down the whole of its facility of £750,000 agreed with the 'concert
party' investors on conditional secured convertible loans.

The 'concert party' investors entered into a Deed of Variation with the company
on 28th November 2005 to extend the Conditional Secured Convertible Loan
Agreement for an additional period of two years to 28th November 2007.The
conversion rights into ordinary shares shall, if exercised, be subject to the '
concert party' complying with the rules of the City Code on Takeovers and
Mergers, which, because the extension to the conversion rights has not been
subject to a Rule 9 whitewash waiver, may mean that upon exercise the concert
party is required to make a mandatory offer for the Company.

The directors are satisfied that with the financial support provided sufficient
funds are available to the Group in order that a return to a net cash generating
position can be achieved.



Trading Review



Developing our corporate customer base is a sales priority and the BuildSecure
product introduced last year has been well received by a number of well known
national house builders to whom we are increasing sales month on month.  A
number of national motor dealerships are using IP based monitoring services
which is helping them to reduce loss through petty crime.



Our operation has achieved the new BS8418 accreditation, the first in the UK.
We have also signed up to the Security Industry Association, a new government
backed organisation designed to improve standards in the industry.  Our
operating staff are in the process of being trained to achieve the new licensing
arrangements which must be in place by April 2006.  We have applied for approved
contractor status with the SIA and should obtain this early in 2006.




These new regulatory requirements will have an impact on the security industry
and are likely to be problematic to smaller or less well developed operators.
Analysts suggest that some consolidation in the industry is inevitable leaving
Farsight well placed to make some acquisitions to complement continued organic
growth.



Subsequent to the financial year end Intellectual Property Rights relating to
e-Surveillance technologies were disposed of by the Group. An amount of £50,000
was received by the Group as consideration for the disposal. Further details are
given in the Financial Statements.



Board of Directors



On the 8th June 2005 Alan Wix stepped down as Chairman of Farsight Plc. On
behalf of all shareholders and the board of Farsight Plc I would like to thank
him for his commitment and services made to the Company.



On the 8th 2005 June Thomas Charles Blanchard, operations director, was
appointed to the main board. Farsight intends to seek and appoint a new Chairman
in the current financial year.



Conclusion



The difficult decisions made in recent years to cut costs, restructure and
re-focus the business is allowing us to ensure that sales growth is effectively
supported by efficient ongoing operations.



Maintaining a fruitful long term relationship with our clients is based on the
provision of a quality service delivered by well trained staff, therefore we
continue to invest in training and development.



Our focus is the achievement of sales growth and cost containment.  Our
immediate priority is to return the company to profitability. The current year
trading position has continued to show positive movement towards its objective
of profitability.

Notes to the Preliminary Results for the year ended 31 May 2005



1.             Loss per ordinary share



Basic loss per share (LPS) is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to
ordinary shareholders, namely a loss of £655,000 (2004: £1,426,000), by
305,727,072 ordinary shares.



Fully diluted loss per share (LPS) is calculated by dividing the loss
attributable to ordinary shareholders, namely a loss of £655,000 (2004:
£1,426,000), by 365,727,072 potential ordinary shares.  This includes a weighted
average of 60,000,000 potential ordinary shares which would be issued under the
convertible loan agreement.
