Interim Results

Gleeson(M J)Group PLC 31 March 2006 Friday 31 March 2006 M J GLEESON GROUP PLC Interim Announcement Gleeson (whose principal businesses are currently homes and regeneration, development and investment property, and civil engineering for the water industry) announces its results for the half year ended 31 December 2005. The first half of Gleeson's financial year is traditionally much the weaker of the two.

Henceforth, focus will be on housing regeneration, commercial property development, and strategic land trading. •Although Homes and Regeneration made an operating loss of £1.2m (2004/05: profit of £2.2m), it retains the potential to make the substantial profit budgeted for the current year. The level of activity in the housing market has seen a noticeable increase since Christmas, and housing regeneration schemes are expected to make a material contribution to the second half divisional result. •Development and Investment Property also retains the potential to make its budgeted profit contribution, albeit this will be less than what was achieved last year. •The Engineering Division has a strong and secure forward order book through to 2010 from its six AMP 4 Alliances.

Comment is also made on prospects, in particular for the rest of the year to 30 June 2006. Reference should additionally be made to today's announcement of the outcome of the Group's Strategic Review, which heralds a substantial change of direction to focus on housing regeneration, commercial property development and strategic land trading. The benefit of these changes will mainly be felt in future financial years. FINANCIAL REVIEW The financial statements for the half year to 31 December 2005 are the first to be prepared by the Group under International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS'). The comparative figures for the half year to 31 December 2004 and the year to 30 June 2005, which were prepared under UK GAAP, have been restated accordingly. In the half year to 31 December 2005, on revenue of £179.3m (2004/05: £174.6m), the operating profit was £2.0m (2004/05: £8.8m) and the pre-tax profit amounted to £0.7m (2004/05: £7.5m). After tax of £0.1m (2004/05: credit of £2.3m) and a loss for discontinued operations of £3.7m (2004/05: £15.4m), the loss for the period totalled £3.1m (2004/05: £5.6m). This equates to a total loss per share (diluted) of 5.9p (2004/05: 11.1p). Period end equity totalled £147.9m (2004/05: £158.7m), equivalent to NAV per share of 287p (2004/05: 308p). Net borrowings of £102.3m (2004/05: £88.6m) at the period end, a seasonally high point, represented gearing of 69% (2004/05: 56%). Net finance costs, however, totalled £2.1m (2004/05: £3.0m). INTERIM DIVIDEND In the light of the Group's attractive prospects following implementation of the Strategic Review, the Board has declared an interim dividend per share of 1.6p (2004/05: 1.5p), up 6.7%, which will be paid on 30 June 2006 to shareholders on the register at close of business on 2 June 2006, with an ex-dividend date of 31 May 2006. OPERATING REVIEW Homes and Regeneration Homes and Regeneration made an operating loss of £1.2m (2004/05: profit of £2.2m) on revenue of £46.4m (2004/05: £50.1m). In the half year, a total of 245 units were sold (2004/05: 281) at an average selling price of £176,000 (2004/05: £178,000). Of these, Homes accounted for 158 units (2004/05: 258) at an average selling price of £214,000 (2004/05: £201,000) and Regeneration 87 units (2004/05: 23) at an average selling price of £107,000 (2004/05: £88,000). The performance of Homes reflected a difficult market in the period with both margins and volumes under pressure. In addition, there has been a change in the accrual rate for old site and maintenance costs, which has resulted in the first half of the year being adversely impacted. This will be recovered in the second half. Development and Investment Property Development and Investment Property made an operating profit of £1.8m (2004/05: £1.6m) on revenue of nil (2004/05: £1.5m). Rents from investment properties totalled £1.2m (2004/05: £2.3m), the reduction reflecting the extensive sales made in the half year to 30 June 2005. Construction Services (continuing) The continuing elements of Construction Services made an operating profit of £4.9m (2004/05: £7.1m) on revenue of £132.9m (2004/05: £123.0m). Construction Services (discontinued) The £3.7m (2005/05: £15.4m) loss in the period for this discontinued operation reflects a re-assessment of the likely out-turn costs of the projects for which the Group retains a liability, including the overheads involved in managing them to conclusion. POST-BALANCE SHEET EVENT As announced on 24 March 2006, the Group disposed of Gleeson MCL Limited to Morgan Sindall plc for a cash consideration of £23.3m. Gleeson MCL is a construction services business involved in railway engineering contracting, in particular work for and in partnership with London Underground Limited. PROSPECTS Homes and Regeneration Despite Homes' modest first half, Homes and Regeneration retains the potential to make the substantial profit budgeted for the current year. The level of activity in the housing market has seen a noticeable increase since Christmas, with sales in the last eight weeks 30% up on the same period a year ago. Homes and Regeneration will, however, now do well to exceed last year's unit sales of 726 (a 36% increase on the previous year). Regeneration is currently on site at Beswick and Grove Village in Manchester, at Norfolk Park in Sheffield and at Liverpool City Centre Inner Core South, and these schemes are expected to make a material contribution to the second half divisional result. Looking further ahead, Regeneration will benefit from schemes at North Huyton on Merseyside, Burnley, Oldham and Doncaster, as well as from its membership of the National Development Panel with which English Partnerships proposes to develop its extensive portfolio of NHS sites across the country. Together, these arrangements will provide the Group with a secure long-term flow of activity. Many new opportunities are arising and the Group expects to benefit from a number of these in the coming months. Development and Investment Property Development and Investment Property also retains the potential to make its budgeted profit contribution, albeit this will be less than what was achieved last year. At the period end, the Group had 16 schemes under development. At the period end, the Group owned 13 investment properties with an aggregate book value of £33.8m. Subsequently, terms have been agreed for the sale of one substantial investment property and two other investment properties are projected for sale before the year end. Construction Services The Engineering Division has a strong and secure forward order book through to 2010 from its AMP4 Alliances with Anglian Water, Northumbrian Water, Severn Trent Water, South West Water, Thames Water and Yorkshire Water, as well as its work for Scottish Water. The Division also has significant opportunities to secure single large contracts in AMP4.

Basis of preparation European Union (EU) law requires that the next annual financial statements of the Group, for the year ending 30 June 2006, be prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU (adopted IFRS). This Interim financial information has been prepared on the basis of the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRS in issue that are either endorsed by the EU and effective (or available for early adoption) at 30 June 2006 or are expected to be endorsed and effective (or available for early adoption) at 30 June 2006. Based on these adopted and unadopted IFRS, the Directors have made assumptions about the accounting policies expected to be applied, which are as set out below, for the year ending 30 June 2006. In addition, the adopted IFRS that will be effective (or available for early adoption) in the financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2006 are still subject to change and to additional interpretations and therefore cannot be determined with certainty. Accordingly, the accounting policies for that annual period will be determined finally only when the financial statements are prepared for the year ending 30 June 2006. The results for the six months to 31 December 2005 and the comparative figures for the six months to 31 December 2004 are unaudited. The comparative figures for the year ended 30 June 2005 are not the Company's statutory accounts for that financial year. Those accounts, which were prepared under UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP), have been reported on by the Company's auditors and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors was unqualified and did not contain statements under section 237 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985. The comparative figures for the six months ended 31 December 2004 and for the year ended 30 June 2005 have been restated for the adoption of IFRS. The principal differences between UK GAAP and IFRS for the Group are set out in note 2(a). Note 2(b) sets out the effect of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 32 and IAS 39 on M J Gleeson Group plc. IFRS transitional information is shown in note 6. 2. Accounting policies Details of significant amendments to the Group's accounting policies (as set out in the Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2005) resulting from the adoption of IFRS are included in notes (a) and (b). With the exception of those changes detailed therein, the accounting policies used are consistent with those disclosed in the Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2005. (a) Principal differences between UK GAAP and IFRS There are seven principal differences which give rise to changes in the Group's reported profits and losses and net assets as set out in the Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2005 and Interim Report 2005 for the six months ended 31 December 2004. These are categorised as follows: i) Sales and marketing costs ii) Deferred land payments ii) Property transactions iii) Lease incentives iv) Property revaluations v) Provisions (disclosure item) vi) Other adjustments, including: proposed dividends deferred taxation share-based payments joint ventures goodwill and intangible assets i) Sales and marketing costs Under UK GAAP, sales and marketing costs for the Homes and Regeneration and Property Divisions are capitalised in site work in progress and written off through cost of sales as the site progresses. Under IAS 2 'Inventories', costs relating to sales and marketing activities are required to be written off as incurred. ii) Deferred land payments Under UK GAAP, deferred land payments (land creditors) are included in 'creditors' at their gross value. Under IAS 2 'Inventories', imputed interest is recognised on deferred land payments with the result that the land creditors are carried in the balance sheet at net present value and the value of land held on the balance sheet in inventories is reduced. The unwinding of the imputed interest (or discount) on land creditors is charged to finance cost and the reduction in land values in inventories will result in an eventual reduction in cost of sales as the land is traded out. Land debtors are also recognised at net present value with the unwinding of the imputed interest (or discount) on land debtors credited to net finance costs. iii) Property transactions Under UK GAAP, where property developments are sold in advance of construction, turnover and profit are recognised over the life of the contract in accordance with Statement of Standard Accounting Practice (SSAP) 9 'Stocks and Long-Term Contracts.' Under IAS 18 'Revenue', where property developments are sold in advance of construction being completed, revenue and profit are recognised from the point of sale, and as the significant outstanding acts of construction and development are completed. iv) Lease incentives Under UK GAAP, lease incentives were spread to the first break clause of the lease. Under IAS 17 'Leases', lease incentives must be spread over the total period of the lease. v) Property revaluations Under UK GAAP, property revaluations were taken to the revaluation reserve and on disposal the balance was shown as a reserve movement. Under IAS 40 'Investment Property', revaluation movements are taken to the face of the income statement rather than reserves and deferred taxation provided. vi) Provisions (disclosure item) Under UK GAAP, provisions for losses on long-term contracts were either deducted from work in progress or included in creditors depending on the circumstances. Under IAS 11 'Construction Contracts', this is now disclosed under two headings - Amounts due from customers for contract work or Amounts due to customers for contract work. vii) Other adjustments Other changes to accounting policies that have an impact on restated net assets and profit and losses under IFRS are as follows: •Proposed dividends Under UK GAAP as applicable for the year ended 30 June 2005, proposed dividends were recognised as a liability in the period to which they relate. Under IAS 10 'Events after the Balance Sheet Date', dividends are not recognised as a liability until they are appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the Company. •Deferred taxation IAS 12 'Income Taxes' requires deferred tax to be recognised on all temporary differences and not just timing differences as previously under UK GAAP. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised in full, but deferred tax assets are only recognised if future taxable profits are available to cover the assets. •Share-based payments As permitted by the exemption from retrospective application in IFRS 1, the Group has adopted IFRS 2 'Share-based Payments' for all payments granted after 7 November 2002. This requires that share-based payments granted after that date should be valued at the fair value of the shares at the date of grant and recognised as an expense over the vesting period. This affects the Sharesave and Long-Term Incentive Plan schemes. The fair value of these shares at date of award is calculated using the Black Scholes model. •Joint ventures (disclosure item) Under IFRS, the results of joint ventures may be accounted for either under the net equity method or proportional consolidation. The Group reported its joint ventures under UK GAAP using the net equity method and has opted to continue to follow this method. Under the net equity method, trading results from joint ventures are shown net of tax within profit before tax. This has no impact on net assets or on profit after tax. •Goodwill and intangible assets Under UK GAAP, goodwill is amortised on a straight line basis over its useful economic life (in the case of M J Gleeson Group plc, for up to 20 years), tested for impairment and provided for as necessary. Under IFRS 3 'Business Combinations', goodwill is no longer amortised but is carried at cost and subject to annual review for impairment at 30 June. It is effectively frozen at 30 June 2004 with amounts amortised subsequently under UK GAAP being reinstated. (b) Other differences between UK GAAP and IFRS i) Financial instruments The recognition, measurement and presentation of financial instruments is dealt with under IAS 32 and IAS 39. Under UK GAAP, there was no comprehensive standard which addressed the accounting for financial instruments as applicable for the year ended 30 June 2005. Financial Reporting Standard (FRS) 13 'Derivatives and other financial instruments' in the UK required disclosures to be made in respect of financial instruments but these were less comprehensive than IAS 32 and IAS 39. The Group's IFRS accounting policies under IAS 32 and IAS 39 are as follows: • The Group and its joint ventures use derivative financial instruments to hedge their exposure to interest rate risks. In accordance with its treasury policy, the Group does not hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes; however, derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are accounted for as trading instruments. • Derivatives are initially recognised at cost on the date that the contract is entered into and subsequently re-measured in future periods at their fair value. The gain or loss on re-measurement to fair value is recognised immediately through the income statement. • A number of the Group's PFI joint ventures have entered into interest rate derivatives as a means of hedging interest rate risk under cash flow hedges, which are initially recognised at fair value. The effective part of the change in fair value of these derivatives is recognised directly in equity. Any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled to the income statement in the periods when the hedged items will affect profit or loss. The fair value of interest rate derivatives is the estimated amount that the Group would receive or pay to terminate the derivative at the balance sheet date. 3.

Post balance sheet event On 24 March 2006, the Group announced the disposal of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gleeson MCL, for a total consideration of £23.3 million. Consideration comprised £15.2 million for goodwill and £8.1 million for estimated net assets at completion, subject to a completion accounts process. The estimated net assets disposed of included cash of £4.8m.
