Three's A Crowd Plc ("Three's A Crowd" or "The Company")
UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD TO
31 MAY 2010
Highlights:
Consolidated pre-tax loss of £1,910 for the six months ended 31 May 2010
(31/05/2009 loss of £84,596)
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
This Interim Statement for the six months ending 31 May 2010 reflects the
aggressive downsizing undertaken by the Board to reduce administrative costs
and streamline the Company to just one operating subsidiary. As a result, the
Company is able to report a much reduced loss for the period.
However, the small loss achieved does not give a proper reflection of the
health of the Company. There are liabilities due for payment within twelve
months of £267,000 at a time when the Company's cash balance is minimal.
POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS
The Board is pleased to inform shareholders that it has managed to secure
funding for the company. However, the terms on which your Board has been able
to secure finance requires management to remove the operating business from the
quoted entity. This will also remove a sizable part of the accrued liabilities
within the Company.
A circular has been posted to shareholders today giving full details of the
proposals, which are subject to shareholder approval, that will enable the
survival of the Company and hence give shareholders some scope to recoup value.

statutory accounts as defined in section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. These
statements, which are unaudited, have been prepared under the historical cost
convention. The financial information has not been reviewed by the Company's

2. The basic earnings per share is based on a loss of £1,910 and on 78,064,500
of weighted average ordinary shares in issue during the six months to 31 May

ordinary shares, all of which arise from share warrants and options, is not
taken into account and diluted earnings per share are the same as basic.
