CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Dear Shareholder,
I present the Chairman's report for the six month interim period
ending 30 June 2013. During the period under review the Company
reported a net loss of GBP74,329 (six months ended 30 June 2012:
GBP67,944) and as at 30 June 2013 had liquid cash balances of
GBP2,008,198 (30 June 2012: GBP2,957,069).
The company continues to investigate potential candidates for a
suitable reverse takeover and is hopeful that a transaction will be
consummated during the current financial period.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30th JUNE 2013
1. GENERAL
The interim financial statements for the six months ended 30th
June 2013 are unaudited and were approved by the Directors of the
Company on 12 July 2013. The condensed financial information set
out above does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning
of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The information given as
comparative figures for the period ended 31st December 2012 was
extracted from the Company's audited annual financial statements
for that financial year. Those financial statements, which
represent the statutory accounts for that year, and on which the
auditors gave an unqualified opinion, have been filed with the
Registrar of Companies.
The financial information has been prepared in accordance with
IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".
The Company's operations are not subject to seasonality or
cyclicality.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies and methods of computation
have remained unchanged from those used in the preparation of the
Company's 2012 annual financial statements.

=================================================== =================================================== ==================================================
Due to there being a loss during each period under review, the
share options are anti-dilutive and therefore no diluted loss per
share has been presented.
5. NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE
The "basic" net asset value per share figures are calculated on
the basis of the net assets attributable to equity shareholders
divided by the number of ordinary shares in issue at the relevant
dates.
As the exercise price of the share options is above the "basic"
net asset value per share the share options are anti-dilutive and
therefore a "fully diluted" net assets per share has not been
calculated.
Copies of the interim report are available to the public free of
charge from the Company at 2nd Floor, 18 Pall Mall, London, SW1Y
5LU during normal office hours, Saturdays and Sundays excepted, for
14 days from today and are available on the website at
www.longshipsplc.com.
