The Group has tax losses available to be carried forward for offset against the
future taxable profits of certain Group companies amounting to approximately
GBP1.5 million (2008: GBP1.3 million). A deferred tax asset in respect of these
losses, amounting to GBP0.2 million (2008: GBP0.4 million), has been recognised
at the year end as the Group believes that there will be future taxable profits
against which the losses will be relieved.
8. Dividends
The Directors recommend the payment of a final dividend of 4.5p per share
totalling GBP782,000, and subject to approval, this is expected to be paid on 4
December 2009 to shareholders on the register at 6 November 2009. This will give
a total dividend for the year of 7.0p (2008: 7.0p).

Basic and diluted earnings per Ordinary share
The calculation of basic earnings per Ordinary share is based on the profit
after taxation for the year of GBP259,000 (2008: GBP3,357,000) and on 15,528,934
shares, being the weighted average number of shares in issue and ranking for
dividend during the year (2008: 15,528,934).
The calculation of diluted earnings per Ordinary share is based on the profit
after taxation for the year of GBP259,000 (2008: GBP3,357,000) and on 15,528,934
shares, being the weighted average number of shares that would be in issue after
conversion of all the dilutive potential Ordinary shares into Ordinary shares
(2008: 15,535,537).

Underlying basic and diluted earnings per Ordinary share
The calculation of underlying basic earnings per Ordinary share, which the
Directors consider gives a useful additional indication of the underlying
performance of the Group, is based on the profit after taxation for the year,
but before deducting exceptional items, goodwill reduction and share-based
payments charge/(credit) (net of tax) of GBP1,272,000 (2008: GBP2,942,000) and
on 15,528,934 shares, being the weighted average number of shares in issue and
ranking for dividend during the year (2008: 15,528,934).
