Bruno Brookes, Chief Executive Officer of Immedia, said:
"Building on its traditional business of creating and delivering live and pre-recorded radio stations for brands, including HSBC, Superdrug, O2, SPAR, GAME and others, Immedia has developed a multi-channel mobile audio content platform, designed to capitalise on the growing demand for direct customer and employee engagement.
"The technology is wholly scalable and Immedia is able to produce and deliver language specific audio content.

Chief Executive's Review
I am pleased to report that Immedia has delivered increased revenues and an improved performance on an operating level in the six months to 30 June 2015.
Results
Revenue rose to £1,373,657 during the period, an increase of 9% on the corresponding period in the prior year (H1 2014: £1,257,346). Gross profit increased by 12% over the first half of 2014 to £734,656 (H1 2014: £653,995) and gross profit margins improved to 53.5% from 52.0%, through change in mix of revenues. EBITDA increased significantly, rising to £116,418 (H1 2014: £64,637), and results from operating activities also rose to £96,035 (H1 2014: £34,745).
Immedia has a strategic investment in the AIM-quoted audio social media platform company, Audioboom Group plc (AIM: BOOM). This stake was acquired in March 2014 as part of the Group's strategy to broaden its digital marketing and communication services. There have been wide fluctuations in this company's share price since we invested, which have resulted in both profits and losses being reported under our IFRS accounting regime. In the period under review, a loss was reported on revaluation of investments of £239,700 (H1 2014: profit £225,000). Cumulatively, the profit on this investment at 30 June 2015 was £277,500; our expectation is for short-term fluctuations to average out over the longer term and for the investment to grow in value in line with Audioboom's own forecasts for business growth.
Whilst the Group's profitability improved at the operating level when compared with H1 2014, the decline in the valuation of the Group's investment in Audioboom Group plc in the period resulted in an overall pre-tax loss of £144,392 (H1 2014: profit £258,886).
Operations
During the period under review, we successfully launched our new interactive mobile communications platform. This platform enables large employers and retailers alike to engage directly with 'hard to reach' audiences, using compelling audio content and the emotional glue of music. Listeners can be kept up to date on relevant news and developments in real time, wherever they may be, allowing them to participate and interact, using polls, catch-up and messaging.
The platform features intelligent analytics that provide insight to help businesses identify better ways to improve content and capture audience attention.
The technology is wholly scalable and Immedia is able to produce and deliver language specific audio content. With its boundless reach, we believe this platform has enormous potential to deliver simple audience engagement solutions to global businesses and to companies with geographically dispersed employees.
In April, we announced BT Group plc as our first customer for this technology. A significant 12-month contract was signed for the supply of an interactive, real time digital radio channel for 30,000 employees of its network business, Openreach.
In July, we announced that our contract with Lloyds Bank had expired at the end of its term. We also announced that our contract with HSBC Bank had been extended for a further four years.
The Company is in progressive discussions with a number of new businesses seeking to develop new ways to communicate with their audiences, across a wide spectrum of interests. We are adding new interactive features to our technology and further developing new flexible service models to accommodate our clients at 'business events'.
Outlook
The contract with BT Group plc was an important win for Immedia, affirming the Board's strategy to develop new business streams by focusing on the supply of innovative digital technology solutions which harness the power of music and the voice to engage stakeholders.
We believe our technology is highly appealing to global and geographically spread businesses. The Board is confident that the Group well is well positioned to capitalise on our first to market solutions in the short to mid-term."

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
1. Reporting entity
Immedia Group Plc (the "Company") is a company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The address of the Company's registered office and its principal place of business is 7-9 The Broadway, Newbury, Berkshire RG14 1AS.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as at and for the half year ended 30 June 2015 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group"). The financial information set out in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The Group's statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those financial statements was unqualified and did not contain a statement under Section 498(2) of the Companies Act 2006. The consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2014 are available at http://www.immediaplc.com/plc/annual-reports/
The Group primarily is involved in marketing and communication services through music, radio and screen based media together with the supply, installation and maintenance of associated equipment.
2. Basis of preparation
These consolidated financial statements for the half year ended 30 June 2015 are unaudited. They have been prepared and approved by the directors following the recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("Adopted IFRSs"); they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2014.
On the basis of current financial projections prepared up to the end of 2016, recent news of new contracts and of contract renewals, continuing improvements in management of costs, and ongoing availability of facilities, the Directors are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 September 2015.
3. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out in detail in note 3 of the Group's consolidated financial statements to 31 December 2014 have been applied consistently to these unaudited financial statements to 30 June 2015, including:
(a) Revenue
Revenue represents the amounts receivable by the Group for the provision of its goods and services, excluding value added tax. Revenue from production services comprise the broadcasting of live and as live radio programmes to customers' premises using appropriate technologies, together with the production of advertising content for use in those programmes. Revenue from these services is billed on time based subscriptions and recognised on the date of broadcast. Revenue from equipment sales is recognised on the date of delivery and configuration when risk and rewards pass to the customer; revenue from content delivery and equipment maintenance services is billed on time based subscriptions and is recognised on completion.
(b) Short term financial assets
These include financial assets that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition; fair value is determined by reference to active market transactions and gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss.

The basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the after tax loss attributable to equity shareholders for the financial period of £144,392 (30 June 2014: profit £258,886; 31 December 2014: profit £430,890) divided by the weighted average number of Ordinary shares in issue in each of the relevant periods: 30 June 2015: 13,724,470 shares (30 June 2015 and 31 December 2015: 13,724,470 shares). For the period to 30 June 2015, and in accordance with IAS 33, the diluted loss per share is stated as the same amount as basic as there is no dilutive effect.
The weighted number of shares used for the diluted earnings per share is calculated after reflecting the outstanding share options at the period end.
In accordance with Rule 26 of the AIM Rules for Companies, this interim financial statement will be available on the company's website at www.immediaplc.com/plc/annual-reports/
