Directors' Statement on the Unaudited Interim Results for the Six Months Ended
31st May 2010
The Company made a loss of £33,884 which compares to a profit of £11,697 in the
same period last year. Fee income fell to £20,496 (2009: £77,358) which
reflects the termination of the investment management agreement with Capita for
the CF Analyst UK Fund, consisting of approximately £4 million funds under
management. No performance-related fees were earned during the interim 6 month
period.
There has been a small decrease in costs, from £48,567 to £40,372 as a result
of relocating our offices to Reading. The opportunity to cut costs further is
limited and the future success of the business is reliant on increasing funds
under management.
The company had assets under management of approximately £8.75m on 31 May 2010.
The recently appointed two new investment managers have brought in additional
funds under management of £8.4 million which are expected to increase by a
similar amount by the end of the year if pending negotiations with several
investors are successful.
We failed to agree terms of arrangements with Mr Sandeep Jaitly who planned to
launch the Gold Fund as mentioned in the Chairman's Statement for the year
ended 30 November 2009. Mr Jaitly is no longer with the company.
We recently had a formal visit from the FSA who have completed their review and
subsequently requested further information. No material exceptions were
highlighted, however. We have reported our dispute with Capita to the FSA, and
a decision as to any further action will be taken soon.
The previous fund manager who left the company on 30 November 2009 has made a
claim for unfair dismissal which has been referred to the Employment Tribunal.
Specialist employment lawyers have been appointed to represent the company and
are reviewing all the documentation whilst waiting for a hearing date.
We are pleased at the progress so far made by our two new investment managers,
and continue to identify further opportunities to enhance the business
This Statement has been prepared by and is the sole responsibility of the
directors of Analyst Investment Management plc.
