Notes to the Unaudited Financial Information
1 The financial information for each of the interim periods ended 31 August 2007
and 31 August 2006 is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts
within the meaning of the Companies Act 1985. It has been prepared using
accounting policies consistent with those set out in the companys statutory
accounts for the year ended 28 February 2007. The financial information for the
year ended 28 February 2007 has been extracted from the companys statutory
accounts for that period which contained an unqualified audit report and which
have been filed with the Registrar of Companies.
2 The calculation of earnings per share for the period is based on the return
attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in
issue during the period.
3 Listed investments are stated at market value based upon middle market prices
at the accounting period end. The unrealised depreciation or appreciation on
the valuation of investments and the gains and losses arising on the disposal of
investments are dealt with in the capital reserve.
4 Copies of the Interim Statement are being sent to shareholders and further
copies can be obtained from the Companys Registered Office.
