Marwyn Management Partners plc ("MMP" or "the Company")

Results for the 6 month period to 30 June 2014

The Board of MMP releases below the results for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2014.

Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to present the unaudited interim results for Marwyn Management Partners plc (the "Company" or "MMP") for the six months ended 30 June 2014.

The Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group") has undergone significant change with the sale of its transport business, Metropolitan European Transport ("MET"), and the post period end move to the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange plc ("AIM"), debt-for-equity swap and placing.

The Group's revenue of GBP6.2 million for the period was generated by its sole ongoing operating subsidiary Le Chameau SAS ("Le Chameau"). Following the sale of MET, its results are reported as discontinued operations. Consolidated operating loss for the period was GBP3.5 million. At 30 June 2014, the Group's consolidated net assets were (GBP5.1) million and consolidated net debt was GBP13.7 million.

Since the half year end the Company has relisted on AIM, raising an additional GBP5.4 million from existing and new investors. Additionally, GBP12.0 million of loans from Marwyn Value Investors LP ("MVI") were converted into MMP shares.

Operating update

Le Chameau

Le Chameau is the focus of our business. Trading for the business continues in line with our expectations and we continue to strengthen the operational management team, with a new CFO and Operations Director joining the business since the beginning of the year. We remain extremely excited about the opportunities available for Le Chameau in existing and new markets.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The principal risks and uncertainties that affect the Group are described on pages 11 and 12 of the Group's Report and Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2013. These are still considered the most relevant risks and uncertainties which the Group faces and they could have an impact on the Group's performance in the second half of the financial year.

Outlook

With the move to AIM, fundraising and recapitalisation completed, the Company is now properly financed to develop the Le Chameau business going forward.

The notes form an integral part of the financial information.

   1.            Reporting entity 

MMP is a company incorporated and domiciled in the UK. The address of the registered office is 11 Buckingham Street, London, WC2N 6DF. The Company is a corporate vehicle launched to pursue acquisition led growth strategies. The Company identifies and works alongside management teams with proven sector expertise to deliver capital value through the execution of its "buy and build" strategies. As at 30 June 2014, the Company had a standard listing on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange plc (the "Main Market"). On 14 July 2014 the Company delisted from the Main Market and became quoted on AIM.

   2.           Accounting policies 
   (a)   Basis of preparation 

The condensed consolidated unaudited interim financial information of the Group has been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services Authority and with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the European Union. The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Report and Consolidated Financial Statements for the year to 31 December 2013, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The accounting policies used are consistent with those applied in the year to 31 December 2013. The financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis.

(b) Going-concern basis

After a review of the Group's budget for 2014 and 2015, its liquid resources and its medium term plans, and following the recapitalisation of the Company in July 2014, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, consider that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.

   (c)   Basis of consolidation 

(i) Subsidiaries

The consolidated condensed financial statements comprise the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2014. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The financial information of subsidiaries is included in the financial information from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. In accordance with IAS 27, adjustments for significant transactions that occurred between the dates of the subsidiary's and parents financial statements have been made where appropriate.

The trading results of companies acquired during the period are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. The

accounting policies of subsidiaries are changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group. Non-controlling interests are the present ownership interests in subsidiary companies, stated at fair value.

(ii) Goodwill

Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiary undertakings and businesses, representing the excess of the fair value of the consideration given over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, is capitalised as an intangible asset. At the reporting date, where management's assessment and accounting of the business combination is in the process of being finalised, the carrying amount of the assets, liabilities and goodwill are stated as provisional. The provisional amounts will be finalised within 12 months from the date of acquisition, with appropriate adjustments made to the assets, liabilities and goodwill as prior year adjustments where necessary.

The carrying value of goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually by reference to the relevant cash generating unit (CGU) and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Any impairment is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement and is not subsequently reversed.

   3.           Segment information 

The determination of operating segments is based on the business units for which information is reported to the Board. Prior to the sale of MET, the Group had two reportable segments: transport and luxury goods, but sold the transport division during the period. The Chief Operating Decision Maker is Mark Watts, an Executive Director of the Company, who is responsible for determining the business units for which information is reported to the Board of MMP. The luxury goods segment consists of the Le Chameau business. The Central segment records central costs from head office expenditure and functions.

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included in the following tables. Performance is measured based on EBITDA. Segment profit/loss from operations is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.

Geographical segments

The UK is the Group's country of domicile. However, following the disposal of the gaming division and the classification of the Transport division as a discontinuing activity, the Group generates all of its revenue from the Luxury Goods division, principally from external customers in Europe.

   11.   Related parties 

Whilst the Board is responsible for the Company's objectives and business strategy and its overall supervision (including the approval of any acquisitions), the Company has outsourced most of its operating functions, including the identification and assessment of acquisition opportunities, and the design and execution of the restructuring process and setting the strategy for any acquired company or business, to Marwyn Operating Partners LLP (the "Operator"), a UK limited liability partnership. The members of the Operator are James Corsellis and Mark Watts, (the 'Founders') and the Company (in respect of a minority participating interest held for regulatory reasons). The Operator is managed by the Founders. As part of the refinancing completed in July 2014 the operator agreement was terminated. No fee was paid in respect of the operator agreement in the period (2013: GBP159,548).

During the period, Marwyn Capital LLP charged MET, the transport subsidiary of the Group, GBP105,410 for corporate finance and office services. Additionally, Marwyn Capital LLP charged Le Chameau SAS, the luxury goods subsidiary of the Group, GBP120,000 for corporate finance and office services. The members of Marwyn Capital LLP are the Founders.

The Founder Securities in Marwyn Management Partners Subsidiary Limited are owned by Marwyn Capital Growth LP (a limited partnership of which, inter alia, James Corsellis and Mark Watts are limited partners) and Marwyn Management Partners LLP (a limited partnership of which, inter alia, James Corsellis, Mark Watts and Robert Ware are limited partners).

In July 2014 as a result of the refinancing and placing the Company became a subsidiary of Marwyn Value Investors LP of Axio House, Robin Place, St Helier, Jersey JE2 4LT.
