Unlike its competitors,Printing.com's Stores and Franchises do not depend on any printing equipment onlocation. The Company's printing and ancillary equipment is based at thecentralised Production Hub with the head office in Manchester. All work isproduced in full four colour rather than two colour. The printing sector hastraditionally been served by smaller printing companies or other On DemandPrinters and is estimated to be worth some £1 billion. Printing.com has three routes to market: Franchise Stores, Bolt-on Franchisesand Company owned Stores. A complete list of Printing.com's 175 active Outlets is included at the end of the release. Printing.com plc ("Printing.com" or "the Company") Specialist retail chain with 188 Outlets open and pending across the UK Unaudited Interim Results for the period ended 15 October 2006 Chairman's & Chief Executive's Statement Trading Results and Dividend We are pleased to announce that, for the interim period covering the 28 weeksending 15 October 2006, your Company increased pre-tax profits by 0.7% to£1,026,000 (2005: £1,019,000). Total Retail Sales increased by 15.9% to £10,879,000 (2005: £9,383,000) andprovides the measure that we believe best indicates transactional volumes. In asimilar manner, Transfer Price (the wholesale value paid by the franchisee inrespect of each order) increased by 16.1% to £5,881,000 (2005: £5,067,000). Turnover marginally decreased by 3.4% to £6,187,000 (2005: £6,404,000),reflecting the change in ownership of several Stores and, significantly, thelegacy 'Agency' division. In previous periods these were Company owned and TotalRetail Sales were included in turnover. In the period under review, now underfranchise ownership, Printing.com's turnover only included the wholesale value(Transfer Price) of these orders, with the balance (along with the associatedoverheads) passed to the franchisee. At the close of the interim period, the Company had cash-in-hand of £3,223,000.During the period, working capital increased by £543,000 and the Company paiddividends of £559,000. Capital expenditure in the period amounted to £3,285,000of which £2,955,000 was lease financed. The Directors are declaring an interim dividend of 0.6p per share to be paid on15 December 2006 to shareholders on the register at 1 December 2006. Current Trading As previously reported at the Company's AGM, trading deteriorated during Juneand July with the downturn being more than would simply reflect the usual summerseasonality. It was also reported that disruption pertaining to the Hubexpansion restricted certain options which could ordinarily have been used tomitigate such conditions: accordingly the Company revised its budget for theyear. We are pleased to report that following the last update on 28 July 2006, andsave for the first two weeks of August, trading has proved more encouraging. Asa result, the penultimate and final 4-week trading Periods, ending 17 September2006 and 15 October 2006, saw volumes inline with the Company's current budget.Encouragingly, the first Period of the second half has also followed this morepositive trend. We attribute better trading both to an improvement in the market and to morepotent promotional offers that are now possible following the Hub expansion.Indeed, September's 'Stationery Pack' offer generated over £200,000 of Total Retail Sales with over1,200 clients placing orders. Estate Development The Company's estate of open and pending Outlets at the end of the reportingperiod comprised:- 15 October 16 October 2005 31 March 2006 2006Company owned Stores 6 8 6Franchised Stores 42 39 42Open and pendingBolt-on Franchises 140 98 118 ---------- -------- ---------Total Outlets open and pending 188 145 166 ========== ======== ========= The Franchised Stores (most of which operate under the Company's TerritoryFranchise model) include not only those open but also those pending under optionor trading from temporary premises. Whilst previously the pending element, wouldhave represented a significant number, today all but one of the Stores are nowtrading from permanent locations. Our strategy for securing franchisees for the limited remaining TerritoryFranchises has reverted away from the expense of major exhibitions as in manyparts of the UK and Ireland we simply have no availability. Previously our proposed structure for the UK included 66 Territory Franchises orCompany owned equivalents. Such has been the success of the Bolt-on Franchiseprogramme that in certain instances we have 'merged' designated TerritoryFranchise areas to provide greater scope for expedited Bolt-on Franchisedevelopment. Accordingly, we now anticipate that a full complement of TerritoryFranchises would be in the region of 58 to 60. We therefore have in the order of12 to 14 still to grant. Bolt-on Franchise development continues to make good progress and we hope thatthe rate of growth will increase as more Territory Franchisees gain experiencein the marketing of the Bolt-on opportunity. Certain of our TerritoryFranchisees have now added more than five Bolt-ons across their development areaand, indeed, many of these successful Territory Franchisees are optimistic thatadditional Bolt-on outlets may be signed. Accordingly, we believe that the scopeexists for the number of Bolt-on franchises to significantly exceed 300 as theestate matures. Like for Like Our like for like measure reflects the value of transactions pertaining to theprincipal Store and the Bolt-on Franchises of a given Territory Franchise. Thisis because some of the Territory Franchisees put more emphasis on the Store theydirectly own, whilst others focus on the development of the local Bolt-onnetwork. Both are valid strategies. In addition, only Territory Franchises where the Store is over three years old are considered, therebyavoiding new stores distorting this metric. On this basis, like for like growth during the interim period was 6.8% versus17.6% reported for the twelve months to March 2006. This reflects thechallenging trading conditions that have been encountered over the summermonths. International Development It is a little over a year since your Company outlined its Internationalstrategy, whereby established printing companies in other countries would beable to licence Printing.com's software and systems and thereby establish asimilar network in their market place. In return for providing its software andsystems, Printing.com would be paid a combination of licence fees and royalties. June 2006 saw the granting of the first of these licences to an establishedprinting group in New Zealand with an Option also granted for Australia.Following extensive training of the New Zealand team in the UK, coupled withon-site support in New Zealand, the system and software are now in use.Importantly, initial feedback from both the licence owner and their franchiseeshas been encouraging. Also, since commencing operations with the system, thefirst New Zealand Bolt-on Franchise has been secured demonstrating the scope forthis model to translate into other countries. The operation of the system means that royalties have begun to be generated at amodest level, but we anticipate that over the next fiscal year and beyond, thesewill prove more significant and worthwhile. In July, we announced that an Option had been taken out over Poland. Thissituation has progressed significantly and we remain optimistic of a positiveoutcome. Following a variety of promotional initiatives, including major printexhibitions in the UK and US, we are actively engaged in discussions with manyprospective partners across the EU, US and elsewhere. We remain cautiouslyoptimistic that these discussions will result in the granting of additionallicences during the current fiscal year. Hub Development At the beginning of the Interim period Printing.com's production Hub had acapacity measured in Total Retail Sales of £20-25 million with the Period byPeriod run rate close to this level and week by week peaks having exceeded thisrange. Following the substantial completion of the major Hub expansion project, we nowhave a Total Retail Sales capacity £40-£45 million and our objective is toderive the maximum efficiencies from our new infrastructure whilst maintainingthe high standards that the Printing.com brand represents. Outlook During the interim period we have faced challenges relating both to the softermarket conditions combined with the Hub operational disruption and the complexdemands on managerial time for the activities surrounding the promotion of theMaster Franchise programme and the instigation of the first internationaloperational licencee. Whilst the fiscal performance of the Interim period versus the previous yearcould be construed as one of consolidation, we firmly believe that theoperational developments provide the basis for the Company to significantly moveforward. Accordingly, we remain optimistic about the prospects for Printing.com.

The Group's Interim Results consolidate the results of the Company and its subsidiary companies made up to 15 October 2006. The information set out does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 240 of the Companies Act 1985. The financial information for the full preceding year is based on the financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2006. These accounts, upon which the auditors issued an unqualified opinion, have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The interim financial information has been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out in the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2006, with the exception of accounting for share based payments. This follows the adoption of Financial Reporting Standard No 20 (FRS 20 - Share based payments) for the year ending 31 March 2007. In accordance with the standard, the cost of share options awarded to employees and franchisees measured by reference to their fair value at the date of grant is recognised over the vesting period of the options based on the number of options which in the opinion of the Directors will ultimately vest. Comparative figures for the period ended 16 October 2005 and the year ended 31 March 2006 have been restated to apply the provisions of FRS 20, increasing staff costs and other operating charges and consequently reducing profit for those periods, as follows: 28 weeks Year ended ended 16 October 31 March 2005 2006 Unaudited Audited £'000 £'000 Profit on ordinary activities after taxation prior toadjustment 775 1,826FRS 20 share option charge (net of tax) (62) (123) --------- ---------Profit on ordinary activities after taxation restated 713 1,703 ========= ========= The Board of Directors approved the interim report on 20 November 2006. 2.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO PRINTING.COM PLC Introduction We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information setout in the consolidated profit and loss account, the consolidated balance sheet,the group cash flow statement and the related notes and we have read the otherinformation in the interim statement and considered whether it contains anyapparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financialinformation. This report, including the conclusion, has been prepared for and only for thecompany for the purpose of their interim statement and for no other purpose. Wedo not, therefore in producing this report, accept or assume responsibility forany other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or intowhose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent inwriting. Directors' responsibilities The interim statement, including the financial information contained therein, isthe responsibility of, and has been approved by the directors. The directors areresponsible for preparing the Interim Statement in accordance with theAlternative Investment Market Rules which require that the accounting policiesand presentation applied to the interim figures must be consistent with thosethat will be adopted in the company's annual accounts. Review work performed We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/4issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom, as if thatBulletin applied. A review consists principally of making enquiries of groupmanagement and applying analytical procedures to the financial information andunderlying financial data and based thereon assessing whether the accountingpolicies and presentation have been consistently applied unless otherwisedisclosed. A review excludes audit procedures such as tests of controls andverification of assets, liabilities and transactions. It is substantially lessin scope than an audit performed in accordance with Auditing Standards andtherefore provides a lower level of assurance than an audit. Accordingly we donot express an audit opinion on the financial information. Review conclusion On the basis of our review we are not aware of any material modifications thatshould be made to the financial information as presented for the 28 weeks ended15 October 2006.
