In the Interim Report for the six months ended 31 October 2014, the Group announced its intention to discontinue its Management services business. The Group initiated an orderly wind-down of the Management services business during the financial year which was completed by the end of the financial year apart from some residual payables and receivables, nearly all of which have been settled since the year-end. The Group also disposed of Geomerics Limited (Note 8) in the prior year and the subsequent residual transactions from this have been treated as a discontinued operation. In accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations these businesses have been classified as discontinued operations and the prior periods have been restated to show these discontinued operations separately from continuing operations. A summary of the results is set out below:

The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows shows the net cash used in the operating and investing activities of the discontinued operations. The impact of the discontinued operations on the Statement of Financial Position is minimal.

   6       Earnings/(loss) per share 

The basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share is calculated on the loss for the year from continuing and discontinued operations of GBP3.9 million (2014: GBP1.2 million).

In accordance with IAS 33 Earnings per share 1) the "basic" weighted average number of ordinary shares calculation excludes shares held by the Employee Share Ownership Trust (ESOT) as these are treated as treasury shares and 2) the "diluted" weighted average number of ordinary shares calculation excludes potentially dilutive ordinary shares from instruments that could be converted. Share options are potentially dilutive where the exercise price is less than the average market price during the period. Due to the losses in 2015 and 2014, share options are non-dilutive for those years and therefore the diluted loss per share is equal to the basic loss per share.

The basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share are based on a weighted average of 47,625,033 ordinary 10p shares (2014: 45,129,800).

The carrying value of intangible assets is reviewed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of "value in use". The key assumptions to assess value in use are the estimated useful economic life, future revenues, cash flows and the discount rate to determine the net present value of these cash flows. Where value in use exceeds the carrying value then no impairment is made. Where value in use is less than the carrying value then an impairment charge is made.

Amortisation and impairment charges are charged to operating costs in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

"Product development" relates to internally generated assets that were capitalised in accordance with IAS 38 Intangible Assets. Capitalised product development costs are directly attributable costs comprising cost of materials, specialist contractor costs, labour and overheads. Product development costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives commencing when the related new product is in commercial production. Development costs not meeting the IAS 38 criteria for capitalisation continue to be expensed through the Statement of Comprehensive Income as incurred.

"Other receivables - investments" relates to the Group's investment in Geomerics (computer games middleware and computer graphics) which was sold in December 2013. There is a retention payment of GBP0.7 million due to be received in December 2015 which has been designated at fair value (discounted for the time value of money). As the retention payment is due within 12 months this has been reclassified from "Non-current assets - Other receivables" to "Current assets - Trade and other receivables".
