Unaudited Interim Results

Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to present our interim results for the six month period ended 30 September 2010.

Once again, overall activity remained quiet, with little movement on the balance sheet in terms of additions or disposals of the fixed asset or stock properties. As no property sales were effected during the period, the turnover figure of GBP163,429 looks low in comparison to the prior period figure of GBP379,395 which included a property sale amounting to GBP198,950.

Cost of sales totalled GBP96,909 again much reduced from the comparative period (GBP290,494), which included the cost of the property sold.

The current period administrative expenses of GBP35,261 (2009 GBP41,418) reflect the reversal of a provision in the order of GBP32,000 for a bad debt as at 31 March 2010 which the directors are now confident will be recovered.

Other operating income for the six month period amounted to GBP63,155 arising largely as a result of an insurance claim which has now been fully finalised.

The overall result is an operating profit of GBP94,414 (2009 GBP47,933) and profit on ordinary activities after taxation of GBP13,146 (2009 loss GBP26,721).

Just after the period end a deposit was received re the sale of our last remaining flat at Gatesgarth, Keswick at an agreed price of GBP187,500 and completion is due by the end of this month. Also since the period end we have attracted a new tenant at College House Barrow for a three year term at GBP6,830 per annum.

As regards plans for the future, at Botchergate, Carlisle we have discussed with the planning authority our intention to submit an application for shops and car parking and also to include student accommodation. We received a favourable response and will be submitting a planning application in the New Year. We are still awaiting a decision from the planners regarding our application at The Kendal Bowman; we expect to receive a positive decision shortly. At Concorde House, Blackpool we are pursuing the original tenant under its guarantee for outstanding unpaid rent. In addition, the purchasers at Printfield, Wigton have now produced detailed plans for Phase 2 and the road access is in the process of being installed.

As stated in the Company's annual results, released on 21 September 2010 the Company's Bankers were due to arrange for an external valuation of the Company's properties to be carried out in October 2010; however this is ongoing and has not been completed. The Directors have continued to consult with various valuers and remain comfortable with the valuation of the Company's property portfolio.

It is satisfying that we have produced a bottom line profit for the period. Should our efforts and those of our agents continue to attract more new tenants to the vacant spaces in our properties then the values of these properties should increase accordingly.

I look forward to reporting further after the March year end.
