I've managed to buy 8000 in two places,tighter than a nun's ....,bid for 25
offered in fuck all to a jam tart.Very interesting that Nicola Meaden has 100000;from memory she ran one of the biggest hedge fund raters,TASS?.Also
Colin Barrow came SABRE and latterly MAN.No better pedigree in the hedge fund
world,and a minuscule float.This one could really shift.

With a mere 3mill shares on float, I am surprised anybody got a look in.
Will try and grab a few myself next week.!!

so, perhaps that at least part of the recent rise. for the record, they bought them at 110p ie right on the offer, on 27/09/06. there was a 95k deal at 109p on same day, so perhaps that the seller, although bid price was 105p...

Chairman's Statement

The past six months have been an exciting time for the Company. Our first
acquisition took longer than many expected, but this was a result of our stated
aim of partnering only with managers of the very highest quality. Alpha's
objective is to achieve a blend of income from managers using different
strategies, but it is a prerequisite that they are first class at what they do.

We completed our first transaction with Winton Capital Management Limited in May through the acquisition of Winton Advisors Limited. This has provided us with a strong foundation for future transactions. These accounts show the first fruits of that acquisition

Fee income has now started to flow from the Global Futures Fund and we believe
it will grow rapidly over the coming months. We continue to await approval from
the regulators for more public distribution of the fund in Switzerland. However, I note that despite the current limits on marketing, assets in the fund have grown from $11.5 million to over $34 million since we completed the transaction. Additionally the manager has shown solid performance during the period and we believe it is likely we should receive more incentive fees in the second half.

We continue to pursue a number of promising conversations with other high
quality hedge fund managers.

The Company has successfully contained costs during the period and has maximized its income from our healthy cash balances.

There has been much talk about M&A in the industry over the last year, however
few transactions have materialised, and even fewer involving public companies.
Alpha has a unique business model that has been carefully designed to address
issues for hedge fund managers while building stable revenue for shareholders.

We have been very encouraged by our progress in the last six months. With the
growth in funds under management combined with continuing performance levels
from Winton, we anticipate being able to report that we have become cash
generative in the first half of 2007.

Colin Barrow, Chairman.
