AUDITED RESULTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2009
The Board of TSE is pleased to announce its audited results for the year ended
31 December 2009. The Report and Accounts are being posted to shareholders today
and a copy is available from the Company's website, www.tsegroupplc.com.
Chairman's Statement
Group revenues increased by 43% in the year to GBP1,577,617 (2008:
GBP1,103,053); in this difficult economic climate your Board considers this a
very strong performance. Unfortunately, the margins associated with this revenue
stream were not as high as expected and hence a loss before taxation of
GBP165,885 (2008: profit GBP31,904) was generated. It is worth noting that
during 2009 the Group decided to write off almost all of its development and
start up costs relating to its international offices; this amounted to GBP77,000
(2008: nil).
During the year we set up and opened a new wholly owned office in Istanbul in
Turkey and further associate offices in Cairo, Warsaw, and Dubai. Also during
the year we set up four new business lines; 'Sports Performance', run out of
TSE's new office in Colorado Springs, USA; 'Event Appraisal', which is being run
out of our TSE Scandinavia office; 'Digital PR and Marketing', a joint venture
with Washington DC based Chong + Koster; and 'Environmental Services', a joint
venture with Indianapolis-based August Mack.
Revenues within all the international offices have grown during the period,
despite the poor global economy, and 2010 has started very positively;
importantly, we are also seeing an improvement in the margins associated with
these revenues. We have won a number of high profile new clients this year,
particularly in the area of Sports Performance and in April we announced that
TSE Consulting SA had been appointed by the Russian Olympic Committee to conduct
an in-depth internal review of Russia's winter Olympic sports performance. This
major contract follows previous assignments from Saudi Arabia, Brazil and
Turkey.
Over the past few months we have been approached by a number of sports related
companies with a view to acquiring or merging with TSE Consulting SA and it is
our opinion that TSE Consulting would benefit substantially by being part of a
larger sports focused group. All shareholders will be kept fully informed on
developments.

Impairment tests of goodwill
No impairment losses in respect of goodwill have been recognised in 2009 or
2008. An annual goodwill impairment review is performed as at 31 December. This
review compares the carrying value of goodwill with the present value of future
cash flows arising from TSE Consulting SA, the Swiss subsidiary and main
operating unit. If the present value is less than the carrying value of the
goodwill, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the income statement.
Key assumptions used in the value in use calculations are as follows:
Cash flow projections are derived from financial plans approved by the Board and
cover a twelve month period. They reflect management's expectations of revenue
growth, operating cost and margin for TSE Consulting SA based on past
experience.
A post-tax discount rate of 10% to 15% has been applied to cash flow projections
reflecting management's view that this range of discount rates are suitable for
the year.

13. (Loss)/Earnings per Share
The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit for the
financial year attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of
shares in issue.
+----------------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+

In the current year the basic and diluted loss per share is the same, as the
exercise of share options and warrants would increase the loss per share and is
therefore, anti-dilutive. Details of the options and warrants which are
outstanding and potentially dilutive are given in note 19.

In February 2009, the Company cancelled the existing options held by certain key
employees over 16.5 million shares at an exercise price of 1p per Ordinary Share
which had been previously awarded in 2007. At the same time, the Company awarded
in aggregate options over 26 million New Ordinary Shares to key employees of its
wholly owned subsidiary, TSE Consulting SA, in accordance with the terms of the
Company's share option scheme. The options will vest on 18 February 2011 and
must be exercised on or before 18 February 2014 at an exercise price of 0.23p
per ordinary share.
The exercise price of the warrants is the lowest average closing price for a
preceding quarter or the current exercise price, whichever is the lower.
The fair value of share options and warrants at grant date has been determined
using the Black-Scholes formula. The assumptions and other inputs used in the
models in respect of share options issued during the year were as follows:
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| | Share | Share |
| | option | option |
| | scheme | scheme |
| | 2007 | 2009 |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Share price on date of grant | 0.395p | 0.20p |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Exercise price | 1.00p | 0.23p |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Expected volatility | 30% | 30% |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Expected dividends | Nil | Nil |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Option life | 3 | 5 |
| | years | years |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
| Risk free interest rate | 5.0% | 5.0% |
+------------------------------------------+--------+--------+
At the dates of issue of shares under the various share option schemes, there
was insufficient historical data to calculate a reliable estimate of expected
share volatility in respect of the Company itself and accordingly expected
volatility has been based on the average volatility of a range of similar UK
listed companies operating in similar markets.
The following tables reconcile the outstanding warrants and share options
granted under the employee share option schemes at the beginning and end of the
financial year.
