                             2006 Interim Results                              

                  CHAIRMAN'S AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENT                   

The first half of 2006 was a further encouraging period for the Group. Profit
increases continued and the good prospects for the Group were reinforced by the
growing interest in quality cookers in the domestic market and by the need for
more efficient commercial products. As these trends accelerate they will drive
the results of the Group. We will continue the process of investing in our
products and brands and acquire compatible operations to reinforce existing
businesses as seen this year with the acquisitions of Eloma and Amana.

Financial Results

Revenue in the six months to 30th June 2006 increased by 21.3% to �273.3
million. Of the turnover growth, 8.1% was organic. Group operating profits rose
by 18.9% to �20.1 million. Profit before tax rose 11.1% to �20 million with
interest, as expected, lower than last year when �0.7 million interest on
overpaid tax was received.

Basic earnings per share were 9.7% higher at 12.4p after a tax rate of 21%. The
proposed dividend per share has been significantly increased again this year to
3.5 pence per share, up 16.7%. The dividend has doubled in the last five-year
period as the strategic development plans have delivered sustained earnings
growth.

Consumer Operations

Aga and Rangemaster are now well established forces in the premium appliance
market and the combination of international expansion, product innovation and
strong routes to market all helped drive growth. Even against a slow UK
consumer backdrop, record profits were achieved. The operational gearing
available to both businesses from cooker volume growth remains a major driver
of the Group's profit growth and both operations are benefiting from the
ongoing expansion of our cookware and refrigeration lines.

In the first half we have sold 9,000 cast iron cookers under the Aga, Rayburn
and Stanley brands and we have set a target of 20,000 for the full year. The
rise of the electric model as a proportion of Aga sales continues and Aga is
establishing itself internationally in both heat storage and conventional
cooking products. We sold 6,500 Aga branded cookers in the first half of which
2,300 were outside the UK and we expect a strong end to the year. Our own
cooker retail operations performed well. The Fired Earth chain is now under the
control of a single UK Aga retail team and we have focused the range on paint,
tiles, bathrooms and now kitchen furniture made by Grange.

Rangemaster had another strong period with overall cooker sales up 7% to 32,500
with international sales growing well representing 18% of sales compared with
13% in the prior year. Performance in the Irish, French and US markets was
strong as the benefits of investment in these markets over recent years paid
off. We expect these trends to continue as our powerful product offering
combines with a shift in demand being seen in these markets from built-in to
free-standing kitchens. Brands like La Cornue and Heartland are also
beneficiaries of this trend.

Marvel leads the Group's progress in refrigeration from the USA and has had an
excellent first half with its sales up over 12% - led by the growing trend for
`outdoor living'. The markets of our home furnishings operations at Domain and
Grange remained soft. After a management restructuring and with a strong new
product programme, a better second half is expected. The first half results
included costs for reorganisation and stock clearances.

Foodservice Operations

Our bakery operations had a strong first half. Sales into central Europe and
into Africa bolstered our French based operations and in the UK we benefited
from investment programmes notably by Marks & Spencer and Sainsbury's. In the
USA our doughnut equipment operation saw strong sales to Wal-Mart and Dunkin'
Donuts. We chose to focus our operations on supermarkets and cut back on our
semi-industrial lines. The cost of these measures, including stock write-offs
was over �0.8 million in the first half and leaves us well placed as we direct
our sales effort towards caf� bakeries and US supermarkets where interest in
healthy quality breads is growing.

We have seen continuing growth from our refrigeration operations with
significant improvement for Victory in the USA and particularly good
performances in China and Australia. In prime cooking, the UK remains quiet,
although the steady increase in sales of the Infinity fryer is an important
feature - as are sales of the Eloma combination ovens, which are gaining
recognition beyond their German domestic base following the acquisition in
February.

Our conviction is that the commercial kitchen has seen years of under
investment and that higher energy costs and health, hygiene and emission
concerns are growing rapidly. Change is coming - a point now widely accepted by
equipment producers. As Governments focus on carbon emissions and major
companies address the subject, higher equipment efficiency standards can be
expected. The Group's commitment to innovation and energy efficiency means it
is well placed to provide the capital equipment much needed in many kitchens.
This is seen not only in the Infinity fryer but also in our refrigerators,
which are leaders on efficiency grounds. We have been named as a 2006 US Energy
Star Partner of the Year for the US Federal Government.

Strategic Development

Over the last five years we have created strong market leading positions within
the consumer and commercial appliance markets for cookers and fridges. Our new
product programmes are central to our progress. At Aga we have a bio-fuel
enabled product and heat storage electric cookers which lend themselves to
energy management and micro-generation. Also, Rangemaster and Marvel are adding
exciting new feature-led products.

In foodservice we are leading the drive for more healthy food, produced quicker
and more efficiently. Our recent acquisition of Amana is part of this process.
It brings the world's leading commercial microwave company into the Group and
provides excellent major account links and a platform for expansion in
accelerated cooking.

Growth rates in our markets are increasing, underlining the benefits of our
investments in recent years. There are further organic and acquisition
opportunities available which we are pursuing and we expect consolidation in
the sectors to continue at all levels.

Current Trading

We continue to perform well in our core UK consumer appliance markets and have
the products now available to sustain that position. Our determined efforts to
develop new markets for our cookers are proving effective and we expect to see
further growth in the second half, notably in Ireland and France.

In foodservice order intake is satisfactory and we continue to work on some
major projects and accounts to provide continuing momentum.

We believe that we have correctly identified and aligned ourselves with growth
markets and with underlying customer trends which will continue to drive
profitability in the future. Accordingly we are confident that 2006 will be
another good year for the Group and that we are well positioned for further
expansion.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
   
Financial information presented here is unaudited but has been reviewed by the

ended 31st December 2005 are not the Group's statutory accounts for that year
as defined by Section 240 of the Companies Act 1985. Those accounts have been
delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts
was unqualified.


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
   
The interim consolidated financial statements do not include all information
and disclosures required in the annual financial statements. They have,
however, been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the
preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31st
December 2005.


3. SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

________________________________________________________________________________________

The fair value adjustments bring the acquired company in line with the Group's
accounting policies.
Prior year fair value adjustments relate to Waterford Stanley �1.0m and others
�0.2m finalising the provisional fair values made in 2005. If the acquisition
of Eloma had been completed on the first day of the financial year, Group
results would not have been materially different.
                     

8. BANK LOANS AND OVERDRAFTS
   
In the period bank loans denominated in overseas currencies (US dollars and
Euros) of �2.7m have been issued to hedge overseas investments.


9. SHARE CAPITAL
   
During the period 690,750 ordinary shares of 25p each (nominal value �172,688)
were issued in connection with the Company's share option schemes for an
aggregate consideration of �1.7m.


10. RETIREMENT BENEFIT SCHEMES

Defined benefit schemes

Plan assets have been valued at a market value of �745.3m and the defined
benefit liabilities at �744.3m, at the interim date. The liabilities have been
rolled forward from 31st December 2005 and adjusted to take account of the
increase in bond yields, which have increased the discount rate from 4.8% to
5.3%.


11. EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

On 7th September 2006 the Group acquired `Amana', a US product line of
commercial microwaves for $49.25m in cash. In the year to 31st December 2005
the turnover was $43m and operating profit $4.7m.



                     NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT                     

            Independent Review Report to Aga Foodservice Group plc             

Introduction

We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information for
the six months ended 30th June 2006 which comprises Consolidated Income
Statement, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Cash Flow Statement,
Consolidated Statement of Recognised Income and Expense, and the related notes
1 to 11.

We have read the other information contained in the interim report and
considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material
inconsistencies with the financial information.

This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained
in Bulletin 1999/4 `Review of interim financial information' issued by the
Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not
accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company, for our work,
for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

Directors' responsibilities

The interim report, including the financial information contained therein, is
the responsibility of, and has been approved by the directors. The directors
are responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Listing
Rules of the Financial Services Authority which require that the accounting
policies and presentation applied to the interim figures should be consistent
with those applied in the preceding annual accounts. Any changes to these
policies, together with the reasons for the amendment are disclosed.

Review work performed

We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/
4 'Review of interim financial information' issued by the Auditing Practices
Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review consists principally of making
enquiries of group management and applying analytical procedures to the
financial information and underlying financial data and, based thereon,
assessing whether the accounting policies and presentation have been applied,
unless otherwise disclosed. A review excludes audit procedures such as tests of
controls and verification of assets, liabilities and transactions. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and therefore provides a
lower level of assurance than an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit
opinion on the financial information.

Review conclusion

APB Bulletin 1999/4 requires that we state that we have not reviewed the
interim comparative figures included in the interim report.

On the basis of our review, with the exception of the matter described in the
preceding paragraph, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the financial information as presented for the six months ended 30th
June 2006.
