Directors' Statement on the Unaudited Interim Results for the Six Months Ended 31st May 2009

The Company made a profit of 11,697 which compares to a loss of 26,236 in the same period last year. Fee income was 77,358 (2008: 16,976) which reflects performance-related fees earned for the year ended 30 November 2008.

In the first 6 months of the year the return on the funds under management has been 1.25% versus a return of 8.22% on the FTSE All Share Index. The performance of the Open Ended Investment Company (OEIC), quoted as CF Analyst UK Fund since launch date, 1, December 2005 has been minus 8.85% versus a minus 6.46% on the FTSE All Share Index.

The fund had assets of 3.93m on the 31 May 2009. The fund maintains a high cash balance and hence the main reason for the outperformance since inception compared to the index.

We have deliberately not participated in the equity markets and kept more than 50% of the funds under management in cash primarily due to intense volatility, adverse economic climate and uncertainty with regards to the banking sector.

There has been a small increase in costs, but these are still below the level of the comparable period two years ago. The opportunity to cut costs further is limited. It is expected, however, that certain administrative fees will be reduced shortly and the cost savings will be reflected in the next financial year.

The future success of the business is reliant on increasing revenues. Discussions are continuing with a number of parties aimed at increasing revenues.

This Statement has been prepared by and is the sole responsibility of the directors of Analyst Investment Management plc.
