Underlying revenue for the year was slightly down at £3,799,586 compared to£3,855,034 for 2006 with the underlying operating loss of £405,022 for the yeara significant improvement on the 2006 underlying operating loss of £785,613. The strengthened finance function has kept a rigorous control on costs and thecompany remains cash generative with cash and cash equivalents of £661,845 atthe year-end, again a significant improvement on the prior year balance of£242,795. The sector that Immedia operates in is undergoing change with a growth inscreen-based digital out-of-home media. Digital out-of-home media isincreasingly found in the retail sector but importantly also in the leisuresector and whilst this growth has initially been hardware driven, as hardwarepenetration increases so does the demand for content. We believe that Immediahas the strategy and the skills to exploit this demand for content and foreseethat this could become an important source of revenue and profit going forward. Although it is still early days we have a pipeline of new business that gives usencouragement for the year ahead. Geoff Howard-Spink Chairman Business Review I am pleased to present our full year results for the financial year ending 31December 2007. Results & Financial Performance 2007 was a challenging year but we believe Immedia has sustained its positionwell with a strong focus on cost control and profitability. Revenue for the yearwas £3,904,815 (2006: £4,472,225) with underlying revenue (excluding one-offcontributions from discontinued contracts) flat on last year. The underlyingoperating loss before income tax was reduced from £785,613 to £405,022. Thisyear's results have been impacted by the previously disclosed £1.055 millionwrite-off of Cube's intangibles. We do not anticipate any further impairmentcharges. Following a disappointing performance by Cube since its acquisition and the lossof two significant contracts in the first quarter of 2007, one of our prioritiesfor 2007 was to restructure the business in order to bring Cube's strongexpertise in in-store television under the Immedia brand. This has now beencompleted and the problems linked to Cube's underperformance are now behind us.In addition, since last September, we have undertaken a significant number ofsound and visual installations in the retail sector and remain positive aboutCube's clients' contribution to performance at Group level going forward. At Group level, significant progress has also been made on the financialstructure of the Company, with all loans having been repaid during the year.Costs have been rigorously controlled and the Group remains cash generative,with £661,845 cash in the bank (31 December 2006: £242,795). On the basis of current financial projections prepared up to the end of 2009,recent news of contract renewals, continuing improvements in management ofcosts, and ongoing availability of facilities, the Directors are satisfied thatthe Group has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeablefuture and consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the goingconcern basis. Subscription Stations All of our subscription radio stations continue to perform well. In October2007, we were delighted to announce a contract with The GAME Group plc toprovide subscription radio to all of the GAME stores across the UK. Theroll-out has been successful and we currently broadcast GAME Live! toapproximately 370 stores. In September, we were also pleased to announce that we had signed a new contractwith SPAR UK to continue to broadcast SPAR Live! under a subscription model tocirca 1,400 stores for another three years. The radio station is performingextremely well and we are pleased to say that all advertising airtime has beensold until October 2008. Immedia has provided SPAR with a full service radiostation since June 2004 and we have a strong relationship with the SPAR teamwhich we will seek to build on going forward. Our station HSBC Live! which broadcasts to 940 branches across the UK continuedto perform well. IKEA Live! rolled out as planned and the station broadcasts to all 20 IKEAstores across the UK. Lloyds Pharmacy Live! is operating well across all 1,500 stores, our contracthas been renewed and we are entering our sixth year of partnership with LloydsPharmacy's team. We have made good progress trialling other radio stations and as one of ourobjectives to develop content provision going forward, we have continued toprovide tailored visual content for a range of first class brands. Current Trading and Outlook 2007 was a challenging year for Immedia but I am pleased with what has beenachieved in terms of structure, product offering and pipeline developments. As aresult of the changes that have been made in 2007 I am confident that we havealigned Immedia's offering towards the most profitable areas of growth for 2008and beyond. In the second half of the year, it had become apparent that there were numerousopportunities within the wider market of 'digital out-of-home'. The digitalout-of-home sector is widely reported to be one of the fastest growingadvertising markets in the world. We have invested substantial time and effortclarifying how we could develop innovative solutions to service customers' needsin this field and as a consequence our strategy is now as follows: - To continue to win radio and RadioVision contracts from retailers but also in other sectors - To drive new networks in new territories with existing clients - To launch new and innovative TV solutions - To develop our thriving installation and maintenance services - To generate and develop content for digital network owners across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) - To sign reseller agreements with providers across the EMEA region to offer and distribute Immedia's first class offering This strategy is being successfully implemented and we also remain focused oncost management and profitability. Current trading is in line with our expectations and we are also delighted toannounce today that our contract with HSBC has been renewed for another twoyears. We look forward to developing our relationship with HSBC further. We believe that we are well equipped to benefit from the growth of the widerdigital out-of-home market, and that the actions we have taken over the last sixmonths will enable us to make good progress during the current year.

This preliminaryannouncement was approved by the Board on 9 May 2008. 1 Reporting entity Immedia Broadcasting plc (the "Company") is a company incorporated and domiciledin the United Kingdom. The address of the Company's registered office is 8-10New Fetter Lane, London EC4A 1RS. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the yearended 31 December 2007 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (togetherreferred to as the "Group"). The Group primarily is involved in marketing andcommunication services through radio and screen based media. 2 Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared and approved by thedirectors in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards asadopted by the EU ("Adopted IFRSs"). On the basis of current financial projections prepared up to the end of 2009,recent news of contract renewals, continuing improvements in management ofcosts, and ongoing availability of facilities, the Directors are satisfied thatthe Group has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeablefuture and consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the goingconcern basis. (a) Statement of compliance The AIM Rules require that the consolidated financial statements of the Companyfor the year ending 31 December 2007 be prepared in accordance withInternational Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the EU("Adopted IFRSs"). The accounting policies set out below have, unless otherwise stated, beenapplied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financialstatements and in preparing an opening IFRS balance sheet at 1 January 2006 forthe purposes of the transition to Adopted IFRSs. Judgements made by the directors, in the application of these accountingpolicies that have significant effect on the financial statements and estimateswith a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed innote 2(c). (b) Measurement convention The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical costbasis except as noted in note 3 (a) below. (c) Use of estimates and judgements The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements,estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies andthe reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actualresults may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisionsto accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate isrevised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty andcritical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the mostsignificant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements aredescribed in the following notes: ·; Note 4 determination of fair values ·; Note 14 intangible assets (goodwill impairment tests); ·; Note 16 trade and other receivables (review and provisions against doubtful debts). 3 Significant accounting policies The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to allperiods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have beenapplied consistently by Group entities. (a) Basis of consolidation (i) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Grouphas the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so asto obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements ofsubsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the datethat control commences until the date that control ceases. The Group includesan Employee Benefit Trust which is included in the consolidation. (ii) Acquisitions Acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of anacquisition is measured at fair value at the date of exchange of theconsideration provided plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.Identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business that meet theconditions for recognition under IFRS 3 ('Business Combinations') are recognisedat their fair value at the date of acquisition. To the extent that the cost ofan acquisition exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired the differenceis recorded as goodwill. Where the fair value of the net assets acquired exceedsthe cost of an acquisition the difference is recorded in the income statement. (iii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances and any unrealised income and expenses arising fromintra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financialstatements. (iv) Merger On 20 November 2003 a new holding company was brought into the Group. This wascarried out by a share for share exchange and the existing shareholders ofImmedia Broadcast Limited received 1,000 10p Ordinary shares in ImmediaBroadcasting Plc for every share held. There was no cash consideration. Aspart of its transition to IFRS on 1 January 2006 the Group has not restated theGroup reconstruction which has been accounted for as a merger as permitted by UKGAAP. (b) Property plant and equipment (i) Recognition and measurement Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulateddepreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition ofthe asset. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of therelated equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. (ii) Subsequent costs The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment isrecognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the futureeconomic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its costcan be measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property,plant and equipment are recognised in income and expenditure as incurred. (iii) Depreciation Depreciation is recognised as an expense in income and expenditure on astraight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item ofproperty, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorterof the lease term and their useful lives. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are asfollows: Plant and machinery - 3 years Fixtures and fittings - 3 to 5 years Network equipment - 5 years Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at eachbalance sheet date. (c) Intangible assets and goodwill (i) Goodwill Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and is stated at cost lessany accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill, which under IFRSs is not amortised,is tested annually for impairment. Acquisitions prior to 1 January 2006 As part of its transition to IFRSs, the Group elected to restate only thosebusiness combinations that occurred on or after 1 January 2006. In respect ofacquisitions prior to 1 January 2006, goodwill represents the amount recognisedunder the Group's previous accounting framework, UK GAAP. Acquisitions on or after 1 January 2006. For acquisitions on or after 1 January 2006, goodwill represents the excess ofthe cost of the acquisition over the Group's interest in the net fair value ofthe identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. (ii) Amortisation Amortisation is recognised as an expense in income and expenditure on astraight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, otherthan goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. The estimateduseful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows: Customer relationships - 2 to 3 years Video library - 10 years (d) Leased assets Leases in terms of which the Group assumes substantially all the risks andrewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognitionthe leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair valueand the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initialrecognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policyapplicable to that asset. Other leases are operating leases and are not recognised on the Group's balancesheet. (e) Lease payments Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on astraight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives are recognisedas an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between thefinance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The financeexpense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce aconstant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. (f) Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Indetermining the cost of raw materials, consumables and goods purchased forresale, the weighted average purchase price is used. For work in progress and finished goods cost is taken as productioncost, which includes an appropriate proportion of attributable overheads. (g) Trade receivables Trade receivables are stated initially at fair value then measured at amortisedcost less provisions for impairment. Provisions for impairment are recognisedwhen there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect allamounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The impairmentrecorded is the difference between the carrying value of the receivables and theestimated future cash flows discounted where appropriate. Any impairmentrequired is recorded in the income statement. (h) Trade payables Trade payables are not interest bearing and are stated at their nominal value. (i) Impairment Non-financial assets Assets that have indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually. Assetsthat are subject to amortisation or depreciation are reviewed for impairmentwhenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value maynot be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or itscash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit isthe smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely areindependent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognisedin respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carryingamount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carryingamount of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of itsvalue in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use,the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using apre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time valueof money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of otherassets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at eachreporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longerexists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in theestimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss isreversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed thecarrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation oramortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. (j) Revenue Revenue represents the amount invoiced by the Group for the provision of mediaservices and their related equipment in the normal course of business, excludingvalue added tax. Revenue from these services and equipment is recognised on thedate of broadcast or delivery. Sponsorship and promotions revenue is recognisedover the life of the contract. (k) Finance income and expenses Finance income comprises interest income on bank deposits and is recognised asit accrues using the effective interest method. Finance expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings which is recognised inprofit or loss using the effective interest method. (l) Taxation Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year,using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and anyadjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing fortemporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities forfinancial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: theinitial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets orliabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affectsneither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investmentsin subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in theforeseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expectedto be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the lawsthat have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that futuretaxable profits will be available against which temporary difference can beutilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and arereduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefitwill be realised. (m) Share capital Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares andshare options are recognised as a deduction from equity. (n) Earnings per share The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for itsordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or lossattributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted averagenumber of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS isdetermined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholdersand the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effectsof all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible loans (upto 30 June 2006) and share options granted to employees. (o) Employee benefits (i) Defined contribution plans Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans arerecognised as an expense in profit or loss when they are due. (See note 26). (ii) Share-based compensation The Group operates an equity settled compensation scheme which grants options tokey employees. The grant date fair value of options granted to employees isrecognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, overthe period in which the employees become unconditionally entitled to theoptions. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actualnumber of share options that vest unless this adjustment is due to the shareprice not achieving the set thresholds for vesting. As permitted by IFRS 1 ('First time adoption of IFRSs') the Group has taken the exemption not to applythis standard before the transition date. (iii) Employee benefit trust The Group operates an employee benefit trust (EBT) for the benefit of itsemployees through Immedia Broadcasting Trustees Limited which acts as Trustee.Transactions of the EBT are treated as being those of the Group and aretherefore reflected in the consolidated financial statements. In particular,the trust's purchases and sales of shares in the Company are debited andcredited directly to equity. (p) Segment reporting A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either inproviding related services (business segment), or in providing services within aparticular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject torisks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. The Group'sprimary format for segment reporting is based on business segments. (q) Adopted IFRSs not yet applied The following Adopted IFRSs were available for early application but have notbeen applied by the Group in these financial statements. Their adoption is notexpected to have a material effect on the financial statements. IFRS 8 'Operating Segments' (mandatory for the year commencing on or after 1January 2009). IFRIC 11 'Group and treasury share transactions' (mandatory for the yearcommencing on or after 1 March 2007). 4 Determination of fair values A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require thedetermination of fair value, both for financial and non-financial assets andliabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / ordisclosure purposes based on the following methods. Where applicable, furtherinformation about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosedin the notes specific to that asset or liability. (i) Intangible assets The fair value for initial recognition and impairment review of intangibleassets is based on the discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the useand eventual sale of the assets (see note 14 below). (ii) Trade and other receivables The fair value for initial recognition and impairment review of trade and otherreceivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discountedat the market rate of interest at the reporting date. (iii) Trade and other payables The fair value of trade and other payables is estimated as the present value offuture cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reportingdate. (iv) Cash and cash equivalents The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is estimated as their carrying valuewhere the cash is repayable on demand. 5 Segment reporting Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's business andgeographical segments. The primary format, business segments, is based on theGroup's management and internal reporting structure. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis. Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to asegment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.Unallocated items comprise mainly head office expenses and income tax assets andliabilities. Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period toacquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other thangoodwill. 5 Segment reporting (continued) Business segments The Group comprises the following main business segments: Radio services. The production and transmission of live radio programmes forin-store retailer use. Audio and visual content production. The production and transmission of music,video and other screen based content for business use.

Pre-acquisition carrying amounts were determined based on applicable IFRSsimmediately before the acquisition. The value of assets, liabilities recognisedon acquisition are their estimated fair values (see note 4 for methods used indetermining fair values). In determining the fair value of contractrelationships with customers, the Group applied the discount rate of 23% to theestimated future net earnings; in determining the fair value of the videolibrary the Group used estimated replacement cost.

Impairment review and movements in intangible assets and goodwill For the initial allocation of goodwill arising on the acquisition of Cube Groupof Companies to cash-generating units (CGUs) on the adoption of IFRSs (asdisclosed in note (12)) the Group engaged independent expert valuers. Assets that have indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually. Assetsthat are subject to amortisation or depreciation are reviewed for impairmentwhenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value maynot be recoverable. The recoverable amounts of the cash generating units are determined from valuein use calculations. The key assumptions for the value in use calculations arethose regarding discount rates, growth rates and expected changes to sellingprices, and direct costs during the period. Management have estimated thediscount rate using the weighted average cost of capital of the business,changes in selling prices and direct costs are based on past experience andexpectations of future change in the market. The group prepares cash flows derived from the most recent financial budgetsapproved by management for the next year and extrapolates cash flows usingestimated growth rates beyond the budgeting period. The key assumptions for the value in use calculations are: management forecastmodest growth to extrapolate cash flows in the period through to December 2009.A post tax discount rate of 21% was applied to cash flow projections whichequates to a pre tax rate of approximately 26%. During the first half of 2007 there were clear indications of impairment of thecustomer relationships intangible asset and as a result management completedimpairment tests on all the Group's intangible assets, including goodwill. The resulting impairment charges were disclosed in the Group's interim financialstatements and are explained in more detail below. During the second half of 2007 there has been a performance improvement in theaudio visual part of the business, but no reversal has been made of any of theimpairment charges made during the first half year. Method In the period ending 30 June 2007, the performance of audio visual business wassignificantly weaker than anticipated following the non-renewal of a significantcontract and lower than expected activity with other customers. These factorsindicated potential impairment in customer relationships and goodwill during theperiod. The test for impairment under IAS 36 compares the carrying value of anintangible asset against its recoverable amount to the business, where economicvalue is defined as the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell orits value in use. (These measures are based on the net present value of futurecash flows). If the carrying value exceeds the economic value, an impairmentexists. Economic values of intangible assets For the Group's intangible assets, the fair values less costs to sell areconsidered to be the same as the values in use because identical assumptions areused for both valuations. Management has reviewed the customer relationshipsand video library for impairment by reference to their fair values less costs tosell and compared the result against their carrying values. In determining thefair values of contract relationships with its customers, the Group applied thediscount rate of 23% to the estimated future net earnings; in determining thefair value of the video library, the Group used estimated replacement cost. The impairment review of the goodwill in the audio visual business wasundertaken by reference to its 'value in use'; the audio visual business formsits own CGU within the Group and the net present value test was performed onthat CGU. Impairment: the following calculations arise under the policy described in note3(g) above Video library: although the video library had not been used to the levelanticipated during the first half of 2007, sustained increased use is expectedfor the future and management concluded that its fair value less cost to sellexceeded its amortised carrying value of £110,000 at 30 June 2007 and noimpairment charge was required. This remains the case at 31 December 2007 whenthe amortised carrying value was £104,375. Customer relationships: the fair value less costs to sell of customerrelationships at 30 June 2007 was £152,875 which compared with an amortisedcarrying value of £344,000 resulted in an impairment charge of £191,125. At 31December 2007 the amortised carrying value of £73,505 is considered to be notless than the fair value less costs to sell and no further impairment charge hasbeen made. Goodwill: The net present value calculation for goodwill at 30 June 2007indicated a recoverable amount of £199,300 compared with £1,063,400 atacquisition date, resulting in an impairment charge of £864,100. No furtherimpairment charge is assessed at 31 December 2007. 15 Subsidiary companies The following companies are wholly owned subsidiaries whose ultimate parentcompany is Immedia Broadcasting Plc: Name Registered number Country of incorporation Shareholding Immedia Broadcast Limited 03873102 England & Wales 100%Immedia Broadcasting Trustees Limited 04552356 England & Wales 100%The Cube Group of Companies Limited 03845864 England & Wales 100%Cube Music Limited 03822694 England & Wales 100%Immedia Group Limited (1) 06336935 England & Wales 100% (1) Incorporated 8 August 2007 At 31 December 2006 the Company held 100% of the ordinary share capital ofImmedia Broadcast Limited and of The Cube Group of Companies Limited (bothincorporated in England and Wales).

There are no differences between thedisclosures given here for the Group and those required for its parent company. Treasury The Group's financial instruments comprise borrowings, cash and liquidresources, and trade debtors and creditors, the principal risk arising fromwhich is interest rate risk, which the Board has reviewed and manages throughits policies summarised below. The Group maintains a policy of not trading infinancial instruments. This policy has remained unchanged since the beginning ofthe year. Interest rate risk The Group finances its operations through a finance leases and bank borrowings.The Group borrows at both fixed and floating rates of interest. During 2007 allfinance leases and bank borrowings were repaid and there was no interest raterisk at 31 December 2007. Liquidity risk Short-term flexibility is achieved by use of overdraft facilities. There was noborrowing on overdraft facilities at 31 December 2007. Foreign currency risk All trading in the UK and the EEA was denominated in sterling. The Group has nomaterial financial exposure to foreign exchange gains and losses on monetaryassets and liabilities at the year end and does not hedge any of its tradingactivities. Credit risk The Group is not subject to significant credit risk with its exposure beinglimited to a number of multinational blue chip customers. Policies aremaintained to ensure the Group makes credit sales only to customers with anappropriate credit rating. 22 Financial instruments (continued) Market risks The risks the Group faces are similar to those faced by other small companiesservicing larger business within the UK retail sector. Primary risks are in theeconomic cycle (e.g. the adverse effect of a downturn in consumer spendingleading to reduced marketing expenditure amongst clients), and competition (fromothers in an already crowded media marketplace). These risks are balanced against the relative financial resilience of theGroup's blue chip clients, the innovative and high quality services the Groupprovides to those clients, and the methods it uses to protect its position inthe market. Fair values There is no difference between the carrying amounts and the fair values of theGroup's IAS 39 categories of financial instruments.
