CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
Following my recent appointment as your Chairman, it is with pleasure that I am able to announce the results of IQ Holdings plc ("IQH") or ("the Company") for the 18 months' period ended on 31st March 2010. The results reflect the significant events which have taken place during the period including the acquisition of Viewpoint Field and Viewpoint Studios from Media Square plc and the subsequent sale of Rosslyn Research Limited ("Rosslyn") and Viewpoint Field Services Limited ("Viewpoint") to Rivington Street Holdings plc ("Rivington"). In addition, subsequent to the disposal of Rosslyn and Viewpoint, the Company has reorganised and reduced its share capital and then distributed the majority of shares in Rivington which it received as the consideration for the sale of Rosslyn and Viewpoint. Full details of these transactions are contained in the Financial Statements which accompany this Statement.
The figures for the period under review reflect all the events to which I have referred above. Subsequent to the year end the Company raised £150,000 by way of a share placing and raised a further £100,000 by the issue of a Convertible Unsecured Loan Notes. Thus IQH is now a cash shell and it is the intention of your Board to find a suitable company to reverse into IQH. Hopefully this will be to the benefit of all shareholders of IQH, especially when viewed in conjunction with the shares in Rivington which have already been distributed to shareholders.
Immediately following the disposal of Rosslyn and Viewpoint, Gale Blears and Julian Green resigned from the Board so as to pursue their full-time responsibilities for Rivington in the management of the businesses of Rosslyn and Viewpoint. At the same time, Neil McGowan, Joe Seydel and Peter Parkinson also resigned from the Board. I would like to thank all these persons for the support they have given to the Company over the years and especially to Julian Green who has been our Chief Executive ever since the original listing of the Company on OFEX.
Subsequent to the year end Julian Green was re-appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Director and Russell Darvill was also appointed a Director. Both of these appointments were made with a view to facilitating the reversal of a suitable business into IQH. Subsequently, as you will have seen from the recent announcement, Tim Hearley resigned as Chairman so as to devote his time to other business activities. I would like to extend the thanks and appreciation of the Company and especially its Board to the contribution made by Tim Hearley to the development of IQH since its original listing on OFEX. The last period of 18 months has been a time of considerable development and change. We look forward to the future with keen anticipation.
