At that meeting the Group Chief Executive,Stephen King, will be commenting on the Group's performance for the four monthsto the end of July 2014. There has been a small reduction in sales over that period of GBP60,000 dueprimarily to timing differences on one or two contracts and which areanticipated will be recouped in an improved second half. There has been an uplift in profitability of around GBP39,000 in the period aswe become more efficient over time in managing contracts within our acquiredbusinesses. Unaudited consolidated Group sales (and other income) per management accountsfor the four months to 31 July 2014 were GBP2,291,982 (GBP2,351,965 for thesame period last year) with EBITDA of GBP216,000 (2013: GBP177,000).

We have also been required toinvest heavily in additional stock as we gear up for some large contracted CCTVinstallations during the second half of the year. CEO Stephen King, commenting on Group performance, said: "Sales and EBITDA aregenerally in line with where we expected them to be at this stage. We continueto see 2014-15 as a period of consolidation. We continue to manage our cashreserves carefully ahead of the final payment for the acquisition of B to BLinks Limited which falls due in Q3. We have provided for a final payment ofGBP250,000 in our accounts although we anticipate, given the ongoing positivetrading performance of B to B, that this figure will be exceeded. I will expand on individual subsidiary performance when I report on our interimresults in mid-November.
