CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

Financial Summary

The Board is disappointed to report that the Group has not been successful in attracting sufficient new revenue to compensate for the utility contract which substantially concluded last year. As a result, the Group generated a loss on continuing activities before tax of £258,244 (2014: profit of £297,189) on continuing revenue of £6,486,941 (2014: £8,391,893).

The Board appreciates the importance of an established business delivering a profit and has therefore been pleased to announce in recent weeks that, since the year end, PCI-PAL, our compliant credit card solution, has won two prestigious international contracts within the Jewellery and Logistics sectors. In addition, the Ansaback call centre has also secured a significant contract with one of London's most prestigious department stores. Revenue from this contract is expected to be substantial in the coming year.

An increase in revenues from recurring and long-term clients from 51% to 74% in the year, combined with these new business wins and an attractive pipeline of further opportunities gives the Board confidence that the Group will again generate a positive return to shareholders in the coming year.

Disposal

As stated in the 2014 Annual Report and Accounts, the Board had been actively reviewing the Ancora Solutions division and concluded that it was non-core to the Group's business operations and that, as it was relatively small in scale, an owner with a stronger presence in its sector could potentially derive more value from the business. On 31 December 2014 Restore PLC purchased the entire fixed assets, payroll and existing contracts of Ancora Solutions for a cash consideration of £500,000.

In the 6 months to 31 December 2014, Ancora Solutions reported revenues of £362,803 and a loss on discontinued activities of £53,856. This loss comprised a trading loss of £36,387, reorganisation costs of £100,166, onerous lease provisions (estimated outstanding lease costs on warehouse rentals) of £121,000 and a profit on disposal of £203,697. The net book value of the assets disposed of at 31 December 2014 was £286,313.

Group overview

Subsequent to the disposal of Ancora Solutions the Group operates through two divisional segments, namely Ansaback (which includes IP3 Telecom, PCI-PAL and Suffolk Disaster Recovery) and CallScripter.

Ansaback is a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week bureau telephony service providing overflow and out of hours call handling, emergency cover, dedicated phone resources, as well as disaster recovery lines and facilities, and other ancillary telecommunication services.

IP3 Telecom provides a range of network level interactive call services including non-geographic and Freephone telephone facilities. With options for self-sufficiency or fully managed services, the platform gives the user the ability to run a professional call handling operation without the necessity for expensive hardware, installation, and on-going maintenance costs. PCI-PAL is a hosted telephony Level 1 compliant credit card solution designed to prevent card fraud by eliminating credit card data being handled or stored at a clients' premises.

Suffolk Disaster Recovery is the Group's disaster recovery unit, access to which is also sold to clients and third parties. Its capacity increased from 60 seats to 90 seats during the year.

CallScripter is an enhanced customer interaction software suite specifically developed for

contact centres, telesales and telemarketing operations. Our clients gain major benefits by introducing CallScripter's dynamic scripting environment into their organisation as the software facilitates the rapid set-up, handling and reporting of sophisticated inbound, outbound and e-mail campaigns.

Review of Operations

Ansaback division

Ansaback call centre

The Ansaback call centre had an extremely testing year and suffered some difficulties with the adjustments required after its largest client substantially ended its contract in August 2014. This contract ending created more upheaval than originally envisaged, which was compounded by tough economic concerns forcing another client to take nearly half of its business back in-house. A team of 350 temporary call handlers was stood down and managers were made redundant or redeployed elsewhere within the business.

IP3 Telecom (including PCI-PAL)

IP3 Telecom had a strong year winning some excellent new clients and expanding its various Payment Card Industry ("PCI") services, and the Directors believe that the potential of this business continues to be exciting on both a domestic and international basis. Our existing PCI-PAL client portfolio primarily comprises blue chip household names that have chosen our package after evaluating various competing solutions. These clients, for the most part, are happy to be reference sites and provide testimonials to our new prospective clients. The number of transactions and the values passing through our secure network is now growing dramatically.

Although new PCI-PAL competitors are emerging, the Directors believe that the Group has a degree of first mover advantage and an excellent brand which is easily understood by the target market. As a result, we continue to be particularly excited by the prospects for PCI-PAL.

CallScripter division

CallScripter, despite significantly reducing its segmental loss by 95% at the end of the financial year, fell slightly short of reaching divisional profitability by £31,466, on a similar turnover to the prior year. The new 4.6 version release of its software is anticipated at the Call Centre Expo in September 2015.

Dividend

Each year the Board decides whether to declare a dividend, return capital to shareholders or purchase shares in the market to be held as treasury stock. This decision is taken principally in the light of: the Group's present and future expected performance; its net cash balance; and its future working capital requirements taking into account its investment plans for the future development of the Group.

Taking these factors into consideration, although the Group had a disappointing year, Ancora Solutions was successfully disposed of providing an uplift in cash, and with the positive expectations for the coming year on the back of the recently announced new business, the Board is proposing to maintain the payment of a dividend of 0.15 pence per share in respect of the year ended 30 June 2015.

Board Changes

On 1 January 2015 I took over the role of Chairman from Philip Dayer, who stepped down from the Board on 31 December 2014, and, on 1 January 2015, the Group appointed Jason Starr as a non-executive Director, replacing Bernard Waldron who stepped down from the Board on 30 September 2014. Jason is Chief Executive Officer of Dillistone Group plc, the AIM quoted International supplier of software and services for the recruitment sector.

The Board wishes to thank both Philip and Bernard for their wise counsel and significant contribution to the Group.

People

I would like to thank each of the Directors and employees for all of their efforts during the past year. Their commitment, loyalty and support are appreciated in what transpired to be a testing year.

Outlook

The Group has worked hard during the year to compensate for the loss of the utility contract. However new business was not sufficient to deliver a profit. The Board recognises the fundamental importance of profit in an established business and is encouraged by the new business won since the year end. It is also pleased to report that the Group has, since the year end traded at broadly breakeven, whereas at this point last year it was in loss, therefore providing tangible evidence of the fruits of its efforts coming to bear.

The Board therefore looks forward to producing much better results in the first half of the coming year.

STRATEGIC REVIEW

Business Summary

Subsequent to the disposal of Ancora Solutions the IPPlus PLC Group operates two divisions, namely Ansaback (which also includes IP3 Telecom, PCI-PAL and Suffolk Disaster Recovery) and CallScripter.

Ansaback division

The Ansaback call centre is a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week bureau telephony service providing overflow and out of hours call handling, emergency cover, dedicated phone resource, non-geographic, low call and Freephone telephone facilities as well as disaster recovery lines and other ancillary telecommunication services.

The necessity for businesses to offer better services around the clock, seven days a week, lends itself to an outsourced model such as Ansaback. Ansaback continues to win prestige accounts which seek a cost effective yet friendly UK customer facing solution. We have increased our dedicated fixed seats and we continue to prospect for larger clients who seek a mix of dedicated and bureau desks. New clients seek ever greater services as the rise in new media channels for customers increase.

We have seen significant movement in the market as clients search for increasingly complex services to ensure customer satisfaction across coordinated new media channels is achieved. Ansaback is investing to meet Omni Channel demand and has signed several notable new clients, reaching 400 clients for the first time in the year.

The Omni Channel is the name used to describe multiple channels of communication where people engage via e-mail, web chat, instant messaging and posting on social media. The challenge facing Ansaback is for our call centre agents to open or monitor each of these communiqués, read them, decipher them, and then process them in a prescriptive fashion demanded by the client. We can envisage that in a few years time this will become a key part of a revised outsource contact centre offering, including smart mobile devices which assist the client's customer to participate in this multi channel engagement from wherever and whatever time of day they care to choose.

The Ansaback call centre saw its underlying sales (excluding the fixed term utility contract) and minutes increase year on year by 4.8% and 7.1% respectively. Outbound revenues have started to rise, reflecting the recent investment in this area, whilst Professional Services are now being more aggressively charged for which should result in increased Professional Services revenues in the future.

In addition, post year end, the Ansaback call centre secured a significant contract with one of London's most prestigious department stores. Revenue from this contract is expected to be substantial in the coming year.

Excluding the major utility contract, our sales mix is predominately unchanged, providing a degree of stability.

We have recruited new sales and senior sales personnel to focus on our core sectors for both bureau and fixed seat business as well as an outbound manager to assist in pushing this potentially more rapid growth business sector forwards.

The call centre is well positioned for staff transportation and we have two 4 x 4 vehicles for use during extreme adverse weather conditions.

The Ansaback website has been updated and re-launched with the aim of appealing to corporate business prospects, whilst retaining interest for smaller, potential bureau clients.

The Ansaback division also comprises IP3 Telecom, the telecommunications arm of Ansaback, which is a cutting edge provider of hosted "Cloud" telephony technology, providing bespoke automated IVR (Interactive Voice Response) solutions to the banking and financial sectors, hosted contact centres infrastructure for new businesses, telephone numbers, campaign response, call recording, reporting and lone worker staff lines. The triple sited network ensures a robust infrastructure capable of handling high volumes and peaks in call traffic, within one of the most reliable intelligent telephony networks in the UK.

IP3 Telecom (including PCI-PAL)

The IP3 Telecom business has experienced significant growth in the period, with sales increasing by 48% year on year. The business has been successful in increasing existing account revenues, as well as significant new accounts wins through both our Cloud Contact Centre and payment services.

PCI-PAL, part of IP3 Telecom, offers a PCI solution which allows call centres and telephone agents to take payments in a PCI compliant fashion with customer service unaffected and existing operational processes maintained. PCI-PAL makes contact centre payment collection easy and secure, de-scoping the operation from the requirements of PCI DSS (Data Security Standard).

The PCI market is starting to emerge as a new area for many businesses driven by compliance facing a risk of being fined heavily for a data breach. The operational risk is that companies lose their payment processing contracts and are then forced to pay large premiums to become compliant by the main credit card processors. There are some recent examples of high profile data losses which all lead companies handling credit card data to review their payment processes.

Having completed our third full year of Level 1 accreditation to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), which helps prevent credit card fraud, PCI-PAL has grown strongly with transaction volumes increasing by 204% year on year.

The PCI-PAL client base includes a growing number of international, blue chip organisations for whom we are providing payment services not only in the UK, but also from users across the globe. The PCI-PAL brand remains one of the strongest in the space due to our longevity of involvement and in-house expertise around the relevant security standards. We are committed to the contact centre payments space, and invest significant efforts to differentiate ourselves by offering truly cloud, on-demand solutions to the PCI challenge faced by many contact centres globally. The PCI-PAL network comprises multi-redundant telephony systems housed in secure cloud data centres. Utilising multiple telephony and data feeds, the network infrastructure is designed to handle many multiples of the present call volume traffic enabling the handling of hundreds of thousands of payments per day.

PCI-PAL enters the new financial year with a strong developed pipeline of large corporate and blue chip business opportunities as organisations feel greater pressure to become compliant with the PCI DSS due to the increased coverage of data loss in the media, growing public knowledge of data risk, and increased pressure from third party stakeholders.

Additionally, since the year end, PCI-PAL has won two prestigious international contracts within the Jewellery and Logistics sectors. The Directors believe that these contract wins demonstrate the strong and growing demand for our PCI DSS compliant payment solutions. The new contracts are expected to generate revenue in the 2015/16 financial year, supporting growth within this trading division and helping to elevate our prominence in this sector

It is worth noting that, whilst our solution is tried and tested and does not require significant capital expenditure, the time taken from decision to activation for a large business or enterprise remains significant.

Our growing network of business partners across the payments, applications, and telecommunication space, will support our goals to continue to grow the PCI-PAL business stream, maintaining footholds in the UK and newly developing global contact centre payments markets.

Suffolk Disaster Recovery

Suffolk Disaster Recovery, the final business within the Ansaback division, provides physical workstations to a number of businesses in the Ipswich area from its two locations. The facilities have their own generators and are available on a 24 hour basis, 7 days a week. The Ipswich region is poorly served with Disaster Recovery providers and with our call centre and telephony knowledge we are well placed to assist those companies that need to have a backup facility in place. This facility has 90 seats and with the new space in the main building provides a total of 150 seats ready and available. A significant new client has been signed to this service in July with a go live date of September 2015.

Overall the Ansaback division made a segmental profit of £424,508 (2014: £1,262,185), being adversely affected by the substantial conclusion of the utility contract. Whilst agent heads have been reduced, new business could not be won in time to replace such a large reduction. However the prospects going into the new year are encouraging.

CallScripter division

CallScripter is an enhanced customer interaction software suite specifically developed for contact centres, telesales and telemarketing operations. Our clients gain major benefits by introducing CallScripter's dynamic scripting environment and advanced reporting software into their organisations. The software facilitates the rapid set-up, handling and reporting of sophisticated inbound calls, outbound calls and e-mail campaigns.

The CallScripter market is not limited to the UK, with 62% of our business now conducted abroad, mainly in the United States.

In the latter stages of the year ended June 2014, CallScripter dramatically reduced costs without reducing capacity. Revenues in the year were £1,045,847 (2014: £1,099,867). This is, in part, as a result of our OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) partnership with Interactive Intelligence Inc. which has extended our relationship to allow CallScripter to be offered within their Communications as a Service platform ("CaaS"). This provides CallScripter with increased opportunities within their growing hosted customer base, whilst building an ongoing monthly revenue stream via a subscription pricing model.

As a result of the 2014 restructuring, the division was able to reduce its segmental loss to £31,466 (2014: loss of £678,653 including £322,974 of intangible asset impairment).

The division also underwent a successful rebrand in advance of the imminent release of a new and improved CallScripter solution. The new version has been specifically redeveloped to deliver functionality and scalability improvements to enable us to better support new and existing Channel partners. We believe this will enable us to continue to be one of the leading agent scripting tools and increase our sales teams' ability to secure new business in the coming financial year.

Risks

Principal business risks and uncertainties

The principal risks facing the Group relate broadly to its intellectual property, its technology, the market place and competitive environment, dependence on key people, information technology and its acquisition strategy.

Intellectual property rights ('IPR'): The Group is reliant on IPR surrounding its internally generated and licensed-in software. Whilst it relies upon IPR protections including patents, copyrights, trademarks and contractual provisions it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use the Group's intellectual property without its authorisation. Third parties may also challenge the validity and/or enforceability of the Group's IPR, although the directors do not envisage this risk to be significant. In addition, the directors are aware of the supply risk of losing key software partners. As these are not a significant part of the core products, this would only have a short-term impact on the Group as it sought to identify and then train staff in alternative products.

Information technology: Data security and business continuity pose inherent risks for the Group. The Group invests in and keeps under review formal data security and business continuity policies which are independently audited.

Market place and competition: The sectors in which the Group operates in and/or routes to market may undergo rapid and unexpected changes or not develop at a pace in line with the directors' expectations. It is also possible that competitors will develop similar products; the Group's technology may become obsolete or less effective; or that consumers use alternative channels of communications, which may reduce demand for the Group's products and services. In addition, the Group's success depends upon its ability to develop new, and enhance existing products, on a timely and cost effective basis, that meet changing customer requirements and incorporate technological advancements. The directors review the market movements, client requirements and competitive suppliers to ensure that the current portfolio is as required.

The directors ensure that the team are properly directed, trained and motivated to address this issue.

Key personnel: The Group depends on the services of its key technical, operations, sales and management personnel. The loss of the services of any one or more of these persons could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business. The Group maintains an active policy to identify, hire, train, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel in key functions.

Acquisitions: The Group's strategy includes seeking acquisitions of companies or businesses that are complementary to its businesses. As a consequence there is a risk that management's attention may be diverted and the Group's ongoing business may be disrupted or the Group may fail to retain key acquired personnel, or encounter difficulties in integrating acquired operations. The directors remain aware of this disruption and plan to ensure that the main business is not affected.

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The principal financial instruments used by the Group, from which financial risk arises, are trade receivables, cash at bank and trade and other payables. The Group has no significant net foreign currency monetary assets or liabilities nor any significant hedged transactions or positions. The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group's financial risk management objectives and policies and, while retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing, operating and reporting thereof to the Group's finance function. The overall objective is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group's competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:

Credit risk: Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or a counter party to a financial instrument fails to meets it contractual obligations. The Group is mainly exposed to credit risk from credit sales. It is Group policy to assess the credit risk of new customers before entering into contracts and it has a frequent and proactive collections process. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the large and unrelated customer base comprising mainly blue chip companies and public sector organisations. Credit risk also arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions. At the year-end the Group's cash at bank was held with two major UK clearing banks.

Market risk: The directors consider that exposure to market risk, arising from the Group's use of interest-bearing and foreign currency financial instruments, is not significant. This is assessed in note 21 to these financial statements.

Liquidity risk: Liquidity risk arises from the Group's management of working capital. It is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due. The directors review an annual 12 month cash flow projection as well as information regarding cash balances on a monthly basis. At the balance sheet date, liquidity risk was considered to be low given the fact the Group is cash generative and cash and cash equivalents are thought to be at acceptable levels.

Additional risks include the technology utilised in the contact centre and we have a modern telephone switch. This switch includes fail-over systems to further increase our business continuity/disaster recovery readiness whilst also enabling us to offer additional services to clients. It is also split across two locations to further reduce the risk of failure.

To reduce the operational risks we have a Disaster Recovery and Data Centre facility at an office 5 miles away from the main building. This office has independent telephone lines, phone switch and computer data systems synchronised to the main building that can automatically fail-over in the event of a major incident occurring. Looking at other risks within the contact centre, to lower our susceptibility to power outages, we have a standby generator in case of power cuts, while our main computer systems have been upgraded to improve their resilience and minimise any down-time should a problem arise.

Key performance indicators

The Group monitors a number of key performance indicators, using both financial and non-financial metrics, on a daily and monthly basis. The most important of these are as follows:

· Cash on a daily basis

· Call centre billable minutes on a daily basis

· Dedicated desk margins on a daily basis

· Divisional sales and results against budget on a monthly basis

· Divisional sales pipeline on a monthly basis

Employee Relations and Social Responsibilities

The Group continues to advocate a healthy staff policy via its participation in Investors in People together with pursuing a Health and Well-being policy for encouraging healthy practices. The IT team is actively engaged with Carbon Champions for its ecological and green initiatives regarding technology and we have policies including a Low Carbon and Environmental Purchasing Policy, while the Group continues to encourage car sharing, bus usage and the cycle to work initiative.

The Group's employees support a designated charity each year and raised £2,711.

NVQ Qualification and apprentices

After 17 of our employees successfully completed NVQ qualifications last year it was an easy decision to repeat this offering again. We have 12 employees studying for level 3 customer services NVQ, which has been designed around our Call Centre. This supports our commitment to our employees to ensure that they are equipped with the relevant skills required to make them confident within their job roles. We are working in partnership with Catch 22 a national charity which works with young people who find themselves in difficult situations, helping them to stay healthy, find opportunities to learn, earn a living, and find a safe place to live and to give something back to their community.

Summary and Outlook

The Group has worked hard during the year to compensate for the loss of the utility contract. However new business was not sufficient to deliver a profit. The Board recognises the fundamental importance of profit in an established business and is encouraged by the new business won since the year end. It is also pleased to report that the Group has, since the year end, traded at broadly breakeven, whereas at this point last year it was in loss, providing tangible evidence of the fruits of our efforts coming to bear.

The Board therefore looks forward to producing much better results in the first half of the coming year.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015

1. AUTHORISATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Group's consolidated financial statements (the "financial statements") of IPPlus PLC (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together the "Group") for the year ended 30 June 2015 were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 26 August 2015 and the Chief Executive, William Catchpole, and the Chief Financial Officer, R. Stuart Gordon, signed the balance sheet.

2. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GENERAL INFORMATION

IPPlus PLC is the Group's ultimate parent company. It is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom. IPPlus PLC's shares are quoted and publicly traded on the AIM division of the London Stock Exchange. The address of IPPlus PLC's registered office is also its principal place of business.

The Company operates principally as a holding company. The main subsidiaries are engaged in the provision of a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week out of hours and overflow telephony service, the development and sale of contact centre contact relationship management software and the provision of secure storage and destruction of documents.

3. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH IFRS

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.

The principal accounting policies adopted by the Group are set out in note 4. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the Group for the purposes of preparation of these financial statements.

Standards and interpretations in issue, not yet effective

There are no new standards and interpretations currently in issue (as at 29 July 2015) but not effective, based on EU mandatory effective dates for accounting periods commencing on 1 July 2014.

4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the accounting policies set out below. These are based on the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 applicable to those companies reporting under IFRS as adopted by the European Union ("EU").

The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling (£), which is also the functional currency of the parent company, and under the historical cost convention.

b) Basis of consolidation

The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Company and its subsidiary undertakings (see note 19) drawn up to 30 June 2015. A subsidiary is a company controlled directly by the Group and all of the subsidiaries are 100% owned by the Group. Control is achieved where the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee entity to obtain benefits from its activities.

All intra-Group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its subsidiaries are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

The Group has utilised the exemption (within IFRS 1) not to apply IFRS to pre-transition business combinations. The results of IPPlus (UK) Limited are consolidated using merger accounting principles. All other subsidiaries are accounted for using the acquisition method.

c) Revenue

Revenue is measured by reference to the fair value of consideration received or receivable by the Group for services provided, excluding VAT and trade discounts. Revenue is recognised upon the performance of services or the transfer of risk to the customer.

Contact centre turnover is recognised based on billable minutes in the month, along with standing monthly charges and any specific supplementary service charges.

Software turnover is recognised at the point of sale for contracts sold in perpetuity, as it is at this point that the Group has performed all of its obligations. Turnover from annual software licences and maintenance contracts may be received in a single amount or in monthly instalments. Such turnover is recognised evenly over the period to which it relates, reflecting the performance of obligations over time.

Ancora turnover is recognised based on the services provided in the month, along with standing monthly charges and any specific supplementary service charges.

d) Significant judgements and estimates

The Group makes estimates concerning the future in assessing the carrying amounts of capitalised development costs. To substantiate the carrying amount the directors have applied the criteria of IAS 38 and considered the future economic benefit likely as a result of the investment. In the prior year Directors fully impaired the carrying value of the CallScripter intangible asset.

Careful judgement by the directors is applied when deciding whether the recognition requirements for development costs have been met. This is necessary as the economic success of any product development is uncertain and may be subject to future technical problems at the time of recognition. Judgements are based on the information available at each balance sheet date. In addition, all internal activities related to the research and development of new software products are continuously monitored by the directors. No costs are considered to meet the criteria in the current year.

The calculation of the deferred tax asset involved the estimation of future taxable profits. Directors have assessed the carrying value of the Deferred Tax asset and decided to write off the balance, as the utilisation of the assets is unlikely in the near future due to Research and Development tax credits.

Management applied judgements regarding the profit based performance criteria of the Employee Share Options and do not expect these to vest.

Management applied judgements regarding the sale of the Ancora Solutions division being a discontinued activity in the year.

e) Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill was created on the purchase of Ancora Solutions. This Goodwill is not amortised but is subject to annual impairment review to ensure the value is recoverable.

Customer contracts

Customer contracts are included at cost, and cost less estimated residual amount is amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives. The amortisation charge is shown within administrative expenses. The rates applicable are:

· Customer contracts 20%

· Ancora client relationships 10%

· Ancora brand 10%

Research and development

Expenditure on research (or the research phase of an internal project) is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

Development costs incurred are capitalised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:

· completion of the intangible asset is technically feasible so that it will be available for use or sale

· the Group intends to complete the intangible asset

· the Group is able to use or sell the intangible asset

· the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits. Among other things, this requires that there is a market for the output from the intangible asset itself, or, if it is to be used internally, the asset will be used in generating such benefits

· there are adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset

· the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during the development can be measured reliably

The cost of an internally generated intangible asset comprises all directly attributable costs necessary to create, produce and prepare the asset to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Directly attributable costs include development engineer's salary and on-costs incurred on software development. The cost of internally generated software developments are recognised as intangible assets and are subsequently measured in the same way as externally acquired software. However, until completion of the development project, the assets are subject to impairment testing only.

Amortisation commences upon completion of the asset, and is shown within administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. Amortisation is calculated to write down the cost less estimated residual value of all intangible assets by equal annual instalments over their expected useful lives. The rates generally applicable are:

· Development costs 33%

Ancora Customer Relationships

Upon review of the Ancora Solutions' business the directors' opinion was that the Client Sales Relationships, once won, were likely to remain for the long term due to:

· Once the boxes were put into storage and not on view to the client, the services tended to roll along

· A majority of the clients have long term storage requirements (legal and health records) which require documents to be retained and then called out of storage as required

· There are significant costs in moving the boxes to another storage unit. As such customers are more likely to start using another supplier whilst maintaining the existing operation rather than completely transferring the business

At acquisition, the sales and on-going costs of the existing operation were forecast and were discounted back using the Group's Weighted Average Cost of Capital. This gave a valuation of £280,000, which is amortised over 10 years on a straight-line basis, being the estimated life of these assets. The amortisation charge is shown within administrative expenses.

Ancora Solutions Brand Valuation

The relief from royalty valuation method assumes that if a business did not own the Ancora Solutions' brand it would have to pay a royalty to the owners of the brand for its use. The value of the brand is the capitalised value of the royalties that the owner is relieved from paying as a result of the ownership of the asset. The royalty attributed to the purchase was valued using a similar basis to the Customer Relationships and applying a 0.25% royalty rate. At acquisition this gave a valuation of £3,000, which is amortised over 10 years on a straight-line basis, being the estimated life of these assets. The amortisation charge is shown within administrative expenses.

f) Land, building, plant and equipment

Land, buildings, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Leased plant is included in plant and equipment only where it is held under a finance lease.

Disposal of assets

The gain or loss arising on disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost less estimated residual value of all plant and equipment assets by equal annual instalments over their expected useful lives. The rates generally applicable are:

· Land not depreciated

· Buildings 2%

· Motor vehicles 33%

· Fixtures and fittings 20% to 50%

· Plant 20% to 50%

· Computer equipment 33%

Material residual value estimates are updated as required, but at least annually.

g) Impairment testing of goodwill, other intangible assets, plant and equipment

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows ("cash-generating units"). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.

Goodwill and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually. All other individual assets or cash-generating units are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's or cash-generating unit's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value, reflecting market conditions less cost to sell, and value in use based on an internal discounted cash flow evaluation. Any impairment loss is first applied to write down goodwill to nil and then is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit. With the exception of goodwill, all assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists.

h) Leased assets

In accordance with IAS 17, the economic ownership of a leased asset is transferred to the lessee if the lessee bears substantially all the risks and rewards related to the ownership of the leased asset. The related asset is recognised at the time of inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments plus incidental payments, if any, to be borne by the lessee. A corresponding amount is recognised as a finance leasing liability.

The interest element of leasing payments represents a constant proportion of the capital balance outstanding and is charged to profit or loss over the period of the lease.

All other leases are regarded as operating leases and the payments made under them are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives are spread over the term of the lease.

i) Taxation

Current tax is the tax payable based on the profit for the year.

Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences. Deferred tax is generally provided on the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. However, deferred tax is not provided on the initial recognition of goodwill, nor the initial recognition of an asset or liability, unless the related transaction is a business combination or affects tax or accounting profit. In addition, tax losses available to be carried forward as well as other income tax credits to the Group are assessed for recognition as deferred tax assets.

Deferred tax liabilities are provided in full, with no discounting. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the underlying deductible temporary differences will be able to be offset against future taxable income. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realisation, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted at the year end.

Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax expense in the statement of comprehensive income, except where they relate to items that are charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly to equity in which case the related tax charge is also charged or credited directly to other comprehensive income or equity.

j) Dividends

Dividend distributions payable to equity shareholders are included in "other short term financial liabilities" when the dividends are approved in general meeting prior to the year end.

k) Financial assets and liabilities

The Group's financial assets comprise cash and trade and other receivables, which under IAS 39 are classed as "loans and receivables". Financial assets are recognised on inception at fair value plus transaction costs. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are measured subsequent to initial recognition at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Any change in their value through impairment or reversal of impairment is recognised in profit or loss in the year.

Provision against trade receivables is made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due to it in accordance with the original terms of those receivables. The amount of the write-down is determined as the difference between the assets' carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows.

The Group has a number of financial liabilities including trade and other payables and bank borrowings. These are classed as "financial liabilities measured at amortised cost" in IAS 39. These financial liabilities are carried on inception at fair value net of transaction costs, and are thereafter carried at amortised cost under the effective interest method.

l) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

m) Equity

Equity comprises the following:

· "Share capital" represents the nominal value of equity shares

· "Share premium" represents the difference between the nominal and issued share price

· "Other reserves" represents the Merger Reserve resulting from the demerger from KDM International PLC in November 1999 and represents the difference between the value of the shares acquired (nominal value plus related share premium) and the nominal value of shares issued

· "Profit and loss account" represents retained profits

· "Treasury shares" represents ordinary shares owned by the company and the cost of treasury shares are deducted from the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income

n) Contribution to defined contribution pension schemes

The pension costs charged against profits represent the amount of the contributions payable to the schemes in respect of the accounting period.

o) Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the year end.

Any exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

p) Share options

The directors do not consider that the amounts involved are material and, as the performance criteria are not expected to be met, no charge has been recognised as explained in Note 20.

q) Capital management

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, cash, loans and equity. The Group's objective when managing capital is to maintain the cash position to protect the future on-going profitable growth which will reflect in shareholder value.

At 30 June 2015 the Group had a closing cash balance of £1,040,822 (2014: £459,693) and an outstanding mortgage of £1,137,484 (2014: £1,160,455).

9. SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

IPPlus PLC operates three business sectors, Ansaback, CallScripter and Ancora Solutions (the discontinued activity). These divisions are the basis on which the Group reports its segment information. IP3 Telecom and PCI-PAL are part of the Ansaback division. The results of these two activities are not reported separately to management and are not treated as separate segments. The inter-segment sales are insignificant. Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated assets comprise items such as cash and cash equivalents, taxation and borrowings. All liabilities, other than the bank loan, are unallocated. Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the year to acquire segment assets that are expected to be used for more than one period.

The calculation of the earnings per share is based on the profit after taxation added to reserves divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the relevant period. No diluted profit per share is shown because all options are non-dilutive as the vesting conditions are not met at the year end. Details of potential share options are disclosed in note 20.

All amounts fall due within one year and therefore the fair value is considered to be approximately equal to the carrying value. All of the Group's trade and other receivables are denominated in pounds sterling. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of receivables mentioned above. The Group holds £14,618 (2014: £27,575) of deposits as security against certain accounts.

Trade receivables have been reviewed for indicators of impairment and a provision has been recorded as follows:

The deferred tax asset of £280,000 has been written off in respect of carried forward tax losses on the basis that the directors believe that it is more than likely not to be realised against future taxable profits of the Group in the foreseeable future, since declared profits have become taxable losses due to Research and Development claims.

The unprovided deferred tax assets are calculated at a rate of 20% (2014: 20%).

The significant inputs into the model were mid-market share price of 28 pence at the grant date; exercise price shown above; an expected 10 year time to expiry; an annual risk- free interest rate of 0.5%; dividend yield of nil; volatility of share price of nil.

No share options are currently exercisable. The Weighted Average Exercise Price of share options outstanding at 30 June 2015 was 1p, with a weighted average life of 12 months and at 30 June 2014 was 3.6p, with a weighted average life of 17 months.

No share option charge has been recognised during the year because management are of the opinion that the performance conditions will not be met.

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Group uses various financial instruments including cash, trade receivables, trade payables, other payables, loans and leasing that arise directly from its operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to maintain adequate finance for the Group's operations. The existence of these financial instruments exposes the Group to a number of financial risks, which are described in detail below. The directors do not consider price risk to be a significant risk. The directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks, as summarised below, and these remain unchanged from previous years.

Financial risk management and objectives

The Group seeks to manage financial risk to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitably. The directors achieve this by regularly preparing and reviewing forecasts based on the trends shown in the monthly management accounts.

Interest rate risk

The total loan balance at 30 June 2015 is £1,137,484 (2014: £1,160,455). Interest is payable at 2.4% above the base (2014: at 2.55% above the three month LIBOR rate) (note 17).

The Group finances its operations through a mixture of cash and loans and has some risk to interest rate movements which are not deemed significant in the short term.

Credit risk

The Group's principal financial assets are cash and trade receivables, with the principal credit risk arising from trade receivables. In order to manage credit risks the Group conducts third party credit reviews on all new clients, takes deposits where this is deemed necessary and collects payment by direct debit on all new Ansaback and Ancora accounts, limiting the exposure to a build up of a large outstanding debt. The Group also conducts third party credit reviews on CallScripter accounts, which also have an agreed payment plan tailored to the risk of the individual client.

Liquidity risk

The Group aims to mitigate liquidity risk by closely monitoring cash generation and expenditure. Cash is monitored daily and forecasts are regularly prepared to ensure that the movements are in line with the directors' strategy.

Foreign currencies

During the year exchange gains of £829 (2014: charge of £22,403) have arisen and at the year-end £1,679 (2014: £nil) was held in foreign currency bank accounts. It is the Group's policy to hold limited amounts in foreign currency in order to reduce exposure to currency risk. The Group does not sell or buy any currency forward or enter into any hedging contracts.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction and monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates ruling at the year end. At present foreign exchange is minimal and hedging and risk management is not deemed necessary.

28. DISPOSAL OF ANCORA SOLUTIONS DIVISION

Ancora Solutions provided secure document removal, archiving, confidential data destruction and library move services to the medical and scientific industries, as well as industrial and professional sectors.

Prior to the disposal, Ancora Solutions was reorganised and removals were ceased with a consequent reduction in staff, including the divisional Managing Director. This gave rise to a total reorganisation cost of £100,166.

Subsequent to this reorganisation, on 31 December 2014 the Group disposed of the division to Restore PLC. Under the terms of the Disposal, Restore PLC purchased the entire fixed assets, payroll and existing contracts of Ancora in return for a cash consideration of £500,000.

Revenues and expenses, gains and losses relating to the discontinuance of this division have been eliminated from the loss from the Group's continuing operations and are shown as a single line item on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Operating losses until the date of disposal are summarised below:

		2015 £	2014 £

Revenue	362,803		731,494

Cost of sales	(286,028)		(538,705)

Profit on disposal	203,697		-
	────────		────────
Loss for period from discontinued activities	(53,856)		(84,706)
	════════		════════
