CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENT
ADVFN has undergone many changes this year. It has broadened its offering geographically and content-wise.
ADVFN has been able to ride out local and global economic trends and continues to invest to position itself globally while keeping up with technological developments like the rise of mobile with its own best of breed offering.
We continue to position ourselves for growth.
Consequently, the board considers the outcome for the year to be positive especially when considered against the economic back drop.
Our global spread continues to serve us well, with changing circumstances in different territories acting together to smooth out much of the volatility seen around the world during the year.
Developing international markets continues to be our focus, a strategy we are also seeing in many of our customers such as the spread betting firms. The successful launch of our mobile platform bodes well for next year and will give us a tail wind in many markets where the desktop is less common than in the UK.
Our entrance into news, eBooks and comment has also bedded in well, with our Book line taking the top slot and at one point 3 places in the top 5 of Amazon UK's Investing chart. Meanwhile divesting Equity Development enabled us to focus even more tightly on the ADVFN brand.
Our goal is to further leverage and monetise our brand and audience. This will see ADVFN venturing carefully into segments where we can cross sell our content in related markets.
Our successful foray into mobile and eBooks suggests ADVFN is capable of going beyond its core medium of the World Wide Web enabled desktop and on to other platforms like smart phones and e-readers. We plan to continue the process of expanding our sales into other categories to add to our income of site advertising and data subscriptions.
Financial overview
These accounts have been prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.
The results are materially similar to last year's figures. They show turnover of £8,485,000 ( 2011 £8,563,000 ) and a total loss after taxation for continuing operations of £1,276,000 ( 2011 £869,000).
Since the mid-year we have taken a more conservative line on expansion which positions us well to benefit quickly from fairer macro-economic conditions should they appear.
Strategy
We are continuing with our strategy, which has been for many years now, to build the company's global audience and international revenue.
There remain many untapped markets in which private investors would welcome our offering. We are addressing as many as we sensibly can at this time and will address more as opportunities arise. In addition we are now producing offerings for new formats, such as smart phones like the ipad, tablets and e-readers to leverage our audience onto other media platforms. Our mobile offering and ADVFN Books are performing well ahead of expectations.
While still early days in both these categories, it is clear to see that such diversifications bring not only direct sales but other cross selling and promotional benefits. They also give us another tool to use in opening new markets.
Operating Costs
We put a great deal of focus on our costs and try where possible to be as lean as we can be. We have made numerous optimisations over the year and this sees us leaner than we have been for some time.We have become less aggressive against the current economic backdrop over this period and this is coming through in lower operating costs. We will continue to adjust our stance as we go.
Research and Development
ADVFN is always engaged in development. We keep ourselves at the leading edge of technology to assure our long term competitiveness.
Our systems and platform is what makes our company unique and valuable.
Without this investment and the efforts of all our development team we would have not been able to achieve what we have thus far.
To grow alongside the opportunity this investment is vital and we are proud that we continue to be a market leader employing such modest sums.
Environmental policy
The company as a whole continues to look for ways to develop our environmental policy. It remains our objective to improve our performance in this area.

Future outlook for the business
The future for ADVFN is bright. We have more opportunities now than ever before, as much competition fades.
Market conditions appear to change a great deal more than our business performance and affect us a good deal less than others.
This allows us to look forward with confidence. We feel it is fair to say "bear markets do not last forever"
Principal risks and uncertainties:
Economic downturn
An extended economic down turn is not to be taken lightly and as we all know this has been one of the worst in anyone's memory.
Despite this we have continued to push forward and will continue to do so.
High proportion of fixed overheads and variable revenues
A large proportion of the company's overheads are fixed. There is the risk that any significant changes in revenue may lead to the inability to cover such costs. Management closely monitor fixed overheads against budget on a monthly basis and cost saving exercises are implemented on a constant review basis. We have had a strong period of cost optimisations which are updated on a regular basis.
Product obsolescence
The technology that we use and develop is always in development and constant change. All our products are subject to technological change and advance and resultant obsolescence.
We have no choice but to keep innovating to keep up with growing technical challenges that are changing all the time.
The directors are committed to the Research and Development strategy in place, and are confident that the company is able to react effectively to the developments within the market.
Fluctuations in currency exchange rates
A growing proportion of our turnover relates to overseas operations. As a company, we are therefore exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. The company manages its foreign exchange exposure on a net basis, and if required uses forward foreign exchange contracts and other derivatives/financial instruments to reduce the exposure. Currently hedging is not employed. If currency volatility was extreme and hedging activity did not mitigate the exposure, then the results and the financial condition of the company might be adversely impacted by foreign currency fluctuations.
People
We have a very dedicated, loyal team. I would like to thank them for enabling ADVFN to provide a superb service to our millions of users; the private investors of the world.

1. Segmental analysis
The directors identify operating segments based upon the information which is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. The Group considers that the chief operating decision maker is the Board of Directors. The Group has identified two reportable operating segments, being that of the provision of financial information and that of research services. The provision of financial information is made via the Group's various website platforms. Research activities are provided by the Group's staff, primarily to corporate customers.
Two minor operating segments, for which IFRS 8's quantitative thresholds have not been met, are currently combined below under 'other'. The main sources of revenue for these operating segments is the provision of financial broking services and other internet services not related to financial information. Segment information can be analysed as follows for the reporting period under review:

Revenues are allocated to the country in which the customer resides. During both 2012 and 2011 no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Group's total revenues.
The segmental information regularly reviewed by the Board is presented under UK GAAP and, as a result, a key reconciling item between the segmental and the Group financial information relates to IFRS conversion.

Consolidation adjustments primarily relate to the elimination of investments and the calculation of goodwill. IFRS conversion adjustments primarily relate to the different accounting bases for the Group's intangible and tangible assets under IFRS and UK GAAP. The consolidation adjustment for segment assets also includes the impact of the fair value adjustment to the disposal group amounting to £381,000 (see note 3).
Restatement of comparative figures has been done solely as a result of the presentation requirements of IFRS.

Where a loss has been recorded for the year the diluted loss per share does not differ from the basic loss per share as the exercise of share options would have the effect of reducing the loss per share and is therefore not dilutive under the terms of IAS 33.
3. Events after the balance sheet date
On 4th July 2012 an agreement was reached between ADVFN Plc and Bashco Ltd whereby Bashco Ltd acquired Equity Holdings Ltd together with its subsidiary Equity Developments Ltd.
Bashco Ltd is owned by Brian Basham who is the current Chairman of Equity Developments Ltd.
Consideration is payable in cash amounting to GBP 200,000 due in equal instalments on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th anniversaries of the completion of the agreement, which is 4th July 2012.
In addition, a convertible loan note was issued to ADVFN plc by Equity Developments on the completion date of 4th July 2012 in the amount of £1 million maturing on 31 July 2017.
The conditions covering the rights of conversion of the loan note to equity are as follows:
If the cash consideration is paid in full within 30 days of the respective due dates but the purchaser fails to make the cash payment of £1 million on the maturity date (31 July 2017) then the loan notes will convert automatically on the maturity date to shares comprising 49% of the issued share capital of Equity Developments. Equity Holdings will retain the majority shareholding of 51%.
If the cash consideration is not paid in full within 30 days of the respective due dates then the holder of the loan notes has the right to demand full repayment of £1 million in cash immediately on the default. If that amount is not paid then the loan notes will convert automatically on the maturity date to shares comprising 99.5% of the issued share capital of Equity Developments. Equity Holdings will retain the remaining shareholding of 0.05%.
The results of Equity Holdings and Equity Developments and the post tax loss resulting from the fair value adjustments of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented as a single line entry after tax in the income statement as discontinued operations. The prior year comparative income statement is restated so that it is presented in the same format. The assets and liabilities have been allocated to a disposal group - held for sale and written down by £381,000 to their fair value less costs to sell of £589,000 being the discounted value of the deferred cash consideration and the loan note.
Discontinued operations
The single line entry in the income statement for the post tax loss for the disposal group consists of the post-tax loss of Equity Holdings and Equity Developments for the year ended 30 June 2012.
