CORRECTION TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED GROUP INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31
AUGUST 2011
Shareholders are referred to the Unaudited Group Interim Results for the period
ended 31 August 2011, which was published on SENS on Friday, 7 October 2011
("the Interim Results announcement").
Shareholders are hereby advised that it has come to the Company`s attention that
the Interim Results announcement contained an error which needs to be rectified.
Although there is no change to the total loss and comprehensive loss for the
period in the Condensed Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, a calculation
error occurred under the section relating to the `Reconciliation of headline
loss` and in the calculation of the core headline loss and the headline loss per
share from discontinued operations. This was due to the reconciling items not
being adjusted for the non-controlling interest portion.
Accordingly shareholders are referred to the table below which sets out the
correction to the Interim Results announcement:
