focus in 2010 and into 2011 and in that regard we are delighted that Debenhams 
will be stocking Purple Ronnie product in the run-up to Christmas this year. 
 
(iv)         Bagpuss, Clangers & Ivor The Engine 
 
Created by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin, Coolabi is the international 
licensing agent for these enduring British children's classics and distributor 
of the existing TV series.  As a part of our ongoing development of these 
licences we have recently refreshed all of the materials available for 
exploitation by our licensing partners.  Three generations of the creators' 
families were involved in the process, under the Creative Direction of Peter 
Firmin.  In addition, Daniel Postgate, Oliver Postgate's son and a successful 
children's author and illustrator in his own right, has illustrated a series of 
new Bagpuss images. 
 
(v)          Development 
 
Following the arrival of Zoë Scurfield as Head of Development & Production, 
there has been significant early progress and we now have a number of early 
stage projects in development. 
Financial Review of the Period 
 
The results for the six months to 30 June 2010 were affected by the different 
timing of TV production deliveries compared with the same period last year.  In 
2009, the results reflected the delivery of The Large Family Series II to 
broadcasters in the first half whereas deliveries this year are scheduled for 
the second half. 
 
Accordingly the Revenue for the half year amounted to GBP961,670 which was 
GBP410,745 lower than in 2009 (GBP1,372,415) and the Gross profit of GBP674,704 
was GBP257,046 lower than in the comparative period (GBP931,750). 
 
The Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation, share-based 
payments and exceptional items ("EBITDA") was GBP279,231 lower than the previous 
year at GBP16,447 (2009: GBP295,678) with Operating expenses being materially 
unchanged.  The Loss before income tax for the period was GBP374,030 (2009 loss: 
GBP153,531). 
 
Net debt (the net of Cash and cash equivalents, Current portion of long term 
borrowings and Long term borrowings) at 30 June 2010 was GBP730,899, a reduction 
of GBP340,377 from GBP1,071,276 as at 30 June 2009. 
 
Key Performance Indicators for Year Ending 31 December 2010 
 
At the start of this year, we set ourselves five key objectives for the year 
ending 31 December 2010 which focus on the continuing development of our 
portfolio of IP assets.  These are: 
 
·     Put Poppy Cat into production 
·     Contract a Poppy Cat master toy partner 
·     Sign up at least two more major retailers for Scarlett & Crimson in the UK 
in addition to Boots 
·     Sign two additional categories for licensing Scarlett & Crimson in the US 
·     Put at least 2 TV series into development for delivery from 2011 
 
As can be seen both from the announcements we have made to date and from my 
report as set out above, we have made good progress toward achieving our KPIs 
for the year and I look forward to reporting more fully in this regard at the 
year end. 
 
Prospects 
 
We firmly believe that the exciting assets we have in our portfolio will deliver 
attractive organic growth to the group. We also expect to pursue growth through 
acquisition, with this remaining a core motivation for the group for the 
foreseeable future. As a result of the timing of this year's television 
production activity we expect the second half of the year to be considerably 
stronger than the first. We remain confident in the trading outlook for the 
Company and are on course to meet expectations for the full year.
