Unaudited Interim Results for the period ended 30 June 2007
Chairman's Statement
The results for the first six months of 2007 cannot be compared with the
previous year, as shareholders voted overwhelmingly during the period for a
de-merger of Sports Network Limited from Sports Network Group plc, which
subsequently changed its name to XSN plc. Since the de-merger became effective
in May, there has been no trading by XSN plc, which continues to explore the
opportunity to re-invest its remaining cash in a suitable entity, in particular
by way of a reverse transaction, or - failing that - to distribute its assets to
shareholders. The board will report to shareholders as soon as there is
definitive news to communicate.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM RESULTS
1. Basis of preparation
The company has previously prepared its financial statements under
UK GAAP. With effect for periods commencing on or after 1 January 2007, the
company is required to prepare its financial statements in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as endorsed for use in the
European Union.
The financial information presented in this report has been prepared using
accounting policies that will be used in the preparation of the financial
statements for the year ending 31 December 2007. These policies are in
accordance with IFRS and International Financial Reporting Interpretation
Committee's (IFRIC) interpretations that are expected to be applicable for the
year ending 31 December 2007.
The comparative figures included in this report for the six months ended 30 June
2006 and the full year ended 31 December 2006 are restated for IFRS and are
unaudited. The financial information presented in this report is about the
company as an individual undertaking and not about its group. The results of
prior period were presented as consolidated results, as the subsidiary
undertakings were active and under the control of the company. However, during
the period the subsidiary undertakings were sold, hence the comparative figures
for 2006, which were previously presented as a group, have been adjusted in
order to present them in respect of the company alone.
The conversion to IFRS has resulted in presentational changes only. Accordingly,
no disclosures required by IFRS 1 concerning the transition from UK GAAP to IFRS
are given.
The comparative figures for full year ended 31 December 2006 are based on the
latest published audited accounts, but are subject to unaudited restatement to
IFRS as endorsed for use in the European Union. Accordingly they are not the
company's full statutory accounts for that year. The statutory accounts for that
year were prepared in accordance with UK GAAP and have been delivered to the
Register of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was unqualified
and did not include any references to matters to which the auditors drew
attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report; and did not
contain a statement under section 237 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985.
2. Dividends
No dividend is proposed for the period ended 30 June 2007.
3. Loss per share
The calculation of the basic loss per share is based on the loss after tax of
#212,000 and on 162,387,789 ordinary shares, being weighted average number of
ordinary shares in issue during the period. There is no dilutive effect of
options.
4. Share capital
During the year the 138,529,088 ordinary shares of 5p each were re-designated
into 'S' shares of 5p each and subsequently cancelled.
Furthermore the Company's authorised share capital of #17,000,000 divided into
138,529,088 'S' Shares of 5p each and 201,470,912 ordinary shares of 5p each was
reduced to #10,073,546 divided into 201,470,912 ordinary shares of 5p each, of
which 63,637,113 such ordinary shares were issued and are deemed fully paid and
the remainder were unissued.
5. Copies of the Interim Results will be sent to Shareholders shortly
and will be available to members of the public from the Company's registered
office, 1 Threadneedle Street, London, EC2R 8AY.
