Chairman's statement
This has been a difficult period for the Real Office Group with the painful
decision taken to withdraw from the Middle East. It is a blow to me personally
that we as a Board were unable to grow the business in the Middle East in a more
orderly manner.
Results for 2009/10
As ever Pacific Interiors has performed well in trying times producing revenues
of GBP21.8m at a gross margin of 11.3% resulting in a profit before tax of
GBP0.8m and cash balances of GBP1.9m. The Group as a whole had turnover of
GBP22.6m, loss before tax of GBP8.9m and cash balances of GBP1.9m. Of the
GBP8.9m loss, GBP8.5m was in respect of discontinued activities in the UAE and
Qatar and the disposal of ISIS Projects Limited.
We disposed of ISIS Projects as it was no longer part of our strategic focus and
we are reviewing the future of our Indian business which is 51% owned by the
Group currently.
The Company completed a capital reorganisation in August 2010 which places it on
a much stronger financial base via the creation of a positive retained earnings
balance of GBP2.5m giving it the ability to declare a dividend should it be
considered appropriate.
Board
As a result of the changing nature of the business we have taken the decision to
streamline the overheads across the Group and as a result Mike Linforth and
Andrew Huntley have left the business during the year, Paddy Greenwood has
rejoined the board having stepped down on 16 July 2010 and Peter Conroy has
joined as a Non-Executive Director.
Outlook
Now that we have focused the Group back into our European heartland and
restructured it into a more cost effective business, I look forward to growing
our core businesses in the UK and Europe over the coming months.
On a final note I want to thank all our current employees for their unstinting
efforts.

1. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention
and on a going concern basis which assumes that the Group will be able to meet
its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months following the date of
approval of these financial statements. The Directors have considered the going
concern assumption in the preparation of the financial statements.
Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements of the Group and Company have been
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards adopted
for use in the European Union ("IFRS") and The Companies Act, 2006.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of
the Company and its subsidiaries drawn up to 31 July each year. Control is
achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating
policies of an investee entity so as to obtain benefit from its activities.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included
in the income statement from the effective date of acquisition or up to the
effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
Long term contracts
When the outcome of individual contracts can be foreseen with reasonable
certainty and can be measured reliably, a margin is recognised by reference to
the stage of completion, based on the percentage margin forecast at completion.
The stage of completion is measured by the proportion of contract costs incurred
for work performed to date, to the estimated total contract costs or the
proportion of the value of work done to the total value of work under contract.
Full provision is made for all known expected losses on individual contracts
immediately once such losses are foreseen. Margin in respect of variations in
contract work and claims is recognised if it is probable they will result in
revenue.

| 2. Discontinued operations |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| (a) Disposal of ISIS Projects Limited |
| |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| On 28 January 2010, the board of directors completed the sale of its |
| entire investment in ISIS Projects Limited ("ISIS"). The proceeds of |
| sale were substantially below the carrying amount of the related net |
| assets and, accordingly, impairment losses were recognised. The |
| disposal of the construction operations is consistent with the Group's |
| long-term policy to focus its activities in the design and build |
| arena. Details of the assets and liabilities disposed of, and the |
| calculation of the profit or loss on disposal, are disclosed below. |
| |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| (b) Plan to liquidate operations in the Middle East |
| |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| After a major customer in the Middle East twice defaulted on its |
| contractual obligations, on 28 February 2010 the decision was taken to |
| close down the operations of Pacific Middle East LLC ("PME"), Pacific |
| Middle East Turnkey (Abu Dhabi) LLC and Pacific Middle East Turnkey |
| (Dubai) LLC (collectively "UAE"). The impact of these decisions has |
| been reflected in these results by showing separately the loss from |
| these discontinued activities in the Income statement in accordance |
| with IFRS 5 and by providing for the impairment of the investments in |
| Pacific Middle East LLC, Pacific Middle East Turnkey (Abu Dhabi) LLC |
| and Pacific Middle East Turnkey (Dubai) LLC. |
| |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+---------------------------------------------------+-----------+--+-----------+-+
| (c) Analysis of profit for the year from discontinued operations |
| |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| The combined results of the discontinued operations (i.e. ISIS Projects |
| Limited and Pacific Middle East LLC, Pacific Middle East Turnkey (Abu |
| Dhabi) LLC and Pacific Middle East Turnkey (Dubai) LLC) included in the |
| income statement are set out below. The comparative profit and cash |
| flows from discontinued operations have been re-presented to include |
| those operations classified as discontinued in the current period. |
