Final Results

25 September 2013 Suretrack Monitoring plc ("Suretrack") or (the "Company") Final Results for the year ended 31 March 2013 Chairman's statement The Company announced on 10 September 2013 that it had entered into aconditional Sale and Purchase Agreement to dispose of its wholly ownedsubsidiary IBP Limited ("IBP") and, subject to a proposed CapitalReorganisation, that it intends to raise approximately £250,000 before expensesby means of a subscription for 250,021,404 new ordinary shares at 0.1p perordinary share and that it intends to utilise those funds in connection withimplementing a proposed new investing policy for the Company. The Board reviewed the trading of the Company and as a result of the on-goinglosses at IBP felt that it was not sustainable or in the best interests ofshareholders to continue with the ownership of IBP as it could not support thecentral costs associated with the Company being quoted on AIM. IBP made a lossof £70,115 for the year to 31 March 2013 (14 months to 31 March 2012: loss of £5,173). The Company has previously announced that the major contract wins thatwere anticipated during the year have not come to fruition which means thatforecast revenues are extremely weak. As a result the Board are of the opinionthat the disposal of IBP and the related proposals represent the best chancefor the Company to realise future value for shareholders. The Group results show an operating loss for the year of £1,071,931 (2012: lossof £596,464) which includes a provision for the impairment of the carryingvalue of IBP of £885,028 for the reasons described above. The circular posted to shareholders on 10 September 2013 outlines the proposedCapital Reorganisation, the proposed subscription to raise approximately £250,000 before expenses and the proposed new investing policy for the Group.The proposed new Board will assess potential businesses and projects goingforward and will work hard to achieve shareholder value in the future. Summary and outlook Whilst the outcome for the Group over the last two years has been disappointingI hope that the new investment in the business will enhance shareholder valuein the future.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Thedirectors have considered the position of the Group and considered that thesale of IBP Limited and the raising of approximately £250,000 before expensesis the most appropriate action to ensure the business remains a going concern.The directors have received binding letters of subscription for the fullamount, subject to shareholder approval at the General Meeting to be held on 2October 2013, and have produced forecasts for the next 12 months to September2014. These forecasts contain various assumptions on the levels of expenditureover the period. The directors have also assumed the proposed disposal of IBPwill proceed with shareholder approval. The directors are satisfied that theGroup has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for theforeseeable future and accordingly, continue to adopt the going concern basisin preparing the financial statements.

INCOME TAX Analysis of the tax charge No liability to UK corporation tax arose on ordinary activities for the yearended 31 March 2013 nor for the period ended 31 March 2012. Factors affecting the tax charge The tax assessed for the period is higher than the standard rate of corporationtax in the UK. The difference is explained below: 2013 2012 £ £ Loss on ordinary activities before tax (1,071,931) (596,365) Loss on ordinary activities multiplied by the (214,386) (119,273)standard rate of corporation tax in the UK of 20 % Effects of: Disallowed items 181,158 47 Depreciation in excess of capital allowances on 190 (255)qualifying assets Losses utilised - 40 Unutilised losses 33,038 - Other tax adjustments - 119,441 Total income tax - - Factors that may affect future tax charges There is an unrecognised deferred tax asset of £192,129 (2012: £153,000). Thisrelates to estimated surplus trading losses carried forward which are availableto be relieved against future profits of the same trade amounting to £960,644(2012: £763,921). 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable toordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary sharesoutstanding during the period. The diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average numberof shares adjusted to assume the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinaryshares. The diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share as theconversion of share options decreases the basis loss per share, thus beinganti-dilutive. Reconciliations are set out below. 2013 Earnings Weighted Per-share average number £ of shares amount pence Basic EPS Earnings attributable to ordinary (1,071,931) 694,692,433 (0.15)shareholders from continuing operations Effect of dilutive options - - - Diluted EPS Adjusted earnings (1,071,931) 694,692,433 (0.15) 2012 Earnings Weighted Per-share average number £ of shares amount pence Basic EPS Earnings attributable to ordinary (164,079) 704,331,161 (0.02)shareholders from continuing operations Earnings attributable to ordinary (432,286) 704,331,161 (0.06)shareholders from discontinuedoperations Effect of dilutive options - - - Diluted EPS Adjusted earnings (596,365) 704,331,161 (0.08) 5.
