Ultima, the IT and Green Technology Company, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2013.

Highlights for the period

· Turnover of £689,000 (H1 2012: £1,416,000)

· Operating loss of £136,000 (H1 2012: Loss £29,000)

· Pilot Hybrid Solar Power solution being supplied to The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 3rd quarter 2013.

· Agreement to provide solar electricity to Pilansberg Game reserve South Africa for 5 years using the company's" Oasis" containerised Hybrid Solar Power solution

Ultima operates through two divisions: the IT Services division, and the Green technology division.

The IT Services division develops and supplies computer based application software and services to the legal profession.

The Green technology division is responsible for the development and supply of electric powered bicycles and specialist electrical goods and provides renewable energy solutions for the development of clean power generation through solar and other renewable power sources with installations in the United Kingdom and in Spain.

Professor Humayun Mughal, Chairman and CEO, commented:

"During the six months ended 30 June 2013 Ultima made a group operating loss of £136,000 (H1 2012: Loss £29,000). The group maintained its policy of investing into research and product development to ensure it retains the ability to be competitive and react to market opportunities.

The IT Services division has seen continued consolidation and restructuring amongst legal practices, however, the division reported a modest increase in revenue as take up of its FiLos legal software suite continued. The Green Technology division sales of electronic bicycles into continental Europe suffered as the restructuring of its sale channel into this important market sector was completed. Demand for the division's range of electronic bicycles is expected to show recovery in the second half as the new sales and logistic arrangements become effective. The division has continued to expand the scope of its renewable energy solutions and is in the process of supplying its "Oasis" containerised Hybrid Solar Power station to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The order is for a pilot project with installation taking place early September 2013. The order creates an opportunity for the division to develop further business in this economically buoyant region. The division has also signed an agreement to provide solar electricity for 5 years to the visitor centre at the Pilansberg Game reserve South Africa the power being generated by installing the company's "Oasis" containerised Hybrid Solar Power station. The divisions launch of its RHI (Renewable Heat Initiative) solutions expected in September have been delayed due to rescheduling of the Department of Energy's FIT (Feed in Tariff) programme which is not expected to be implemented until April 2014".

.

"The group's principle objective going forward continues to be based upon a growth in low risk recurring revenues, a continued effort to control central overheads by improved operational efficiency and the expansion of the Company by a mixture of organic growth, through continued investment into the development of new products and an increase in renewable energy solutions, complemented by a highly selective acquisitions policy."

"We expect both divisions to make progress with the introduction of new products and improved distribution channels and investment into the development of renewable energy solutions. this will strengthen the group's green credentials and improve the opportunity for growth in revenues in the second half of 2013."

Operational Review

Ultima continued its investment into the IT Services product portfolio and the development of new products in the Green Technology division in order to generate future growth in revenues.

The IT Services division has continued the roll out of the FiLos legal software suite although sales of its legacy products have been decreasing. The division's potential client base continued to see restructuring to adapt to changes in the market for legal services. These changes create opportunities for new software sales but have also seen a number of client firms leave the industry. The division has a programme of continuous product development which has proved an essential tool in maintaining demand and competitiveness and providing a platform for organic growth.

The Green Technology division saw a substantial reduction in sales of its electronic bicycles into mainland Europe resulting in a first half loss. The fall in sales was due to the need to restructure the distribution channel into the Benelux countries resulting in the division establishing a sales and distribution base in The Netherlands operating as Infineum BV. Sales into this region are expected to show recovery in the second half with improvement to logistics and margins.

The division continues to operate four Solar PV installations supplied under its free solar energy for schools initiative. These are projected to produce annual revenue in the region of £60,000 for the next 23 years.

The division's investment into capital equipment and know-how to develop ground source renewable heat solutions has continued, however, the expected launch date of the government backed FIT (Feed in Tariff) scheme has been postponed until April 2014. This has resulted in a redeployment of resources into other active areas until the FIT launch date is closer.

In Italy, the development of a 1MW Solar Park situated on the company's 22 hectares of land in the Puglia region of Southern Italy remains on hold due to an increase in adverse risk factors.

In Spain, the 100KW solar park is under repair following storm damage. The installation is contracted to receive a fixed tariff of 32 eurocents per kilowatt hour for a period of 23 years however, there is a degree of political uncertainty which may lead to a retrospective change in the level and structure of the tariff

The scheme to supply the Mexican department of Education with a specially developed l Hybrid PV system to over 100 schools remains in abeyance awaiting finalisation of contractual arrangements.

The division received an order for its "Oasis" Containerised Hybrid Solar Power station from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Oasis is a compact, scalable solar power station that is capable of providing green energy for applications between 20Kw to 200Kw and is very quick to deploy. Each 20Kw power pack is incorporated into a 20 foot ISO container and delivered to site as a "ready to use "power station." The unit has been designed to cope with local (Saudi) operating conditions. The unit will be installed early September 2013 and should it meet with customer expectations follow up business is expected.

The division has signed an agreement to provide solar electricity for a 5 year period to the visitor centre at the Pilansberg Game reserve situated in the Pilansberg National park in the Bojanala Region of the North West Province of South Africa. The electricity will be generated by installing the company's "Oasis" containerised Hybrid Solar Power station as supplied to Saudi Arabia. The agreement is for a period of 5 years during which the game reserve will purchase the electricity generated by the solar solution. Electricity used in the park is provided through diesel generators there being no grid connection. The "Oasis" solar station will provide clean renewable energy and is expected to reduce the running time of generators by 90% substantially reducing Co2 emissions and helping to eliminate the noise pollution from the generators. The company is confident that following the successful deployment of "Oasis" at Pilansberg that additional business will follow from within the Pilansberg Reserve and other reserves in South Africa.

The division is working on several projects to supply emerging markets with its "Oasis" Hybrid Solar PV stations as an alternative to conventional sources of power generation and expects to be able to announce progress as developments permit.

The opportunity for growth in the global renewable energy market remains positive with opportunities to provide innovative solutions. The division expects to benefit from its experience to increase activity in international markets and develop the UK market for RHI and EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) projects.

The short term economic outlook remains uncertain however the Group remains positive and considers itself well positioned to take advantage of any upturn.

The Board of Ultima remains committed to its programme of research, design and development and expect this will provide the platform for future growth opportunities.
