Realm Services (DAC) Limited - Update
26 January 2010
On 17 August 2009 the Group announced that a subsidiary special purpose company,
Realm Services (DAC) Limited, had been placed into Administration following a
contractual dispute with the Ministry of Defence. The appointment of an
Administrator invoked a 150 day suspension period during which it was hoped that
a commercial resolution could be found. It has not been possible to achieve this
objective and the Group entered into a protocol agreement today which will
result in a termination of the contract at the end of February 2010.
Negotiations are ongoing with the Ministry of Defence for a compensation
settlement in connection with the early termination. This process could take
some time to conclude and the result is uncertain. The Parkwood Group Board will
make a final judgement on the carrying value of the Realm investment when the
Preliminary Results are published but currently expect to fully impair the
carrying value of the Group's investment which would result in a GBP2.7million
exceptional charge in the profit and loss account.
