Chairman’s Statement

The financial year ended 31 May 2014 was transformational for Feedback plc. It saw the Company sell the industrial site
formerly occupied by Feedback Instruments, which was the completion of the long played out disposal decision made in
May 2012. The net cash proceeds of the sale amounted to £940,000 and this sum was used to extinguish the Company’s
outstanding indebtedness of approximately £200,000. The removal of this debt allowed the Company to move forward
with implementing its investment strategy and accordingly on 19 May 2014 the Company entered the medical imaging
market when it completed the acquisitions of Cambridge Computed Imaging Limited (“CCI”) and TexRAD Limited
(“TexRAD”) by way of a reverse takeover and readmission to trading on the AIM market.

Since then the Company has made significant progress with CCI achieving ISO 13485, the International Standard relating
to quality management systems for organisations involved in the manufacture of medical devices, and also strengthening
the software development team. TexRAD continues to develop its product into a commercial version for the pharmaceutical
trials market while maintaining sales of its research version to the leading oncology research centres in hospitals around
the world. The board is pleased to announce that the Company is about to seek regulatory approval for TexRAD to be used
in pharmaceutical trials and are hopeful that FDA approval can be achieved within the coming financial year.

Ahead of the launch of the pharmaceutical trials version of the TexRAD software the Group has reconfirmed its
arrangements with Imaging Endpoints II, LLC (“IE2”) in the USA. As set out in the Company’s admission document, TexRAD
entered into a software licence agreement and strategic partnership with IE2 in which TexRAD granted IE2 the exclusive
licence to use TexRAD Research Software in the state of Arizona in the USA, and to use TexRAD Clinical Trial Software
worldwide with an expected termination date of 12 September 2014. This agreement has now been re-signed on
substantially the same terms and will run for two years from the validation date of the TexRAD Clinical Trial Software,
i.e. the date at which it has achieved compliance with 21 CFR part 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations. IE2 will therefore
remain our exclusive partner worldwide for imaging core lab purposes.

The board intends to continue to develop CCI and TexRAD and will also look to increase the Group’s presence in the
medical imaging sector with bolt on acquisitions and collaborations with research institutions to further grow the business.
The board is pleased with the progress that has been made to date and enthused by new opportunities that present
themselves to the Group.

It is with this in mind that the board has considered its current configuration. Whilst the board is involved with the
day-to-day running of the operations of the Group at a high level, the board considers it appropriate that the directors of
the Company should be focused on considering and actively pursuing potential acquisition opportunities. Accordingly, the
Company today announces a reorganisation of the board of directors with immediate effect.

The board will now comprise three non-executive directors being Simon Barrell, Trevor Brown and Tom Charlton with
Simon Barrell assuming the role of non-executive chairman. Nick Shepheard will leave the Company to pursue his other
business interests. Senior management, being Mike Hayball, Dr Balaji Ganeshan and Dr Stephen Brown, will be responsible
for the day-to-day management of the trading businesses.

I would like to thank Nick Shepheard for his time at Feedback and seeing the Group through the difficult years and the
change in direction. The board wishes him success in the future.

It is with great sadness that we have learned that Professor John Westcott, the Life President of Feedback plc, has passed away
at the age of 93. Professor Westcott was one of the original founders of the Company in 1958 and also Emeritus Professor of
Control Systems and a Senior Research Fellow at Imperial College. He served as a director of Feedback for 54 years until his
resignation on health grounds in November 2012. We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Strategic Report

The Directors present their Strategic Report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2014.

Principal activities of the Group
On 31 May 2013, the Company divested itself of its sole operating subsidiary, Feedback Data plc, and under Rule 15 of
the AIM Rules the Company was reclassified as an Investing company and adopted an Investing Policy which was approved
by shareholders. On 19 May 2014 the Company acquired two subsidiaries in the medical imaging sector, Cambridge
Computed Imaging Limited and TexRAD Limited and therefore reverted to a trading company. The Group is now focused
on medical imaging.

Review of the business
The Chairman’s Statement on page 2 includes a general review of the Group’s business for the year. The Company disposed
of its property in the period and also acquired two new operating subsidiaries as noted above.

Future developments in the business
Following the disposal of Feedback Data plc on 31 May 2013 the company became an investing company. On 19 May
2014 the company completed the acquisition of Cambridge Computed Imaging Limited and TexRAD Limited. Both
companies work in the medical imaging sector. The Group will invest in the continuing development of the products of
the subsidiaries and will look for new markets and opportunities for those products. This will involve, where appropriate,
applying for regulatory approval for the products.

Group results and dividends
The Group loss for the year after taxation amounted to £471,000 (2013: Loss £348,000). The exceptional costs associated
with the acquisition of the subsidiaries and the share issues on 19 May 2014 amounted to £204,000 of which £40,000
has been taken to the share premium account.

No dividends are payable for the year under review.

Principal risks and uncertainties

Economic and market risks

The subsidiary companies are both in the medical imaging market. The market is fragmented and the future success of
the business is dependent on the ability of the companies to secure new and renew current contracts. These contracts
are often with Government supported organisations and the timing of these can be dependent on market conditions. The
Group’s dependence on the award or renewal of contracts means that its revenue stream is not constant and has the
potential to be particularly irregular.

Regulatory approval

The development, evaluation and marketing of the Group’s products and on-going research and development activities are
subject to regulation by governments and regulatory agencies in all territories within which the Company intends to market
its products (whether itself or through a partner) and there can be no assurance that any of the Group’s products will
successfully complete the trial process or that regulatory approvals to market these products will ultimately be obtained.
Failure to obtain regulatory approvals for its products could threaten the Group’s ability to trade in the long term.

FEEDBACK

Strategic Report

CONTINUED

The time taken to obtain regulatory approval varies between territories and there can be no assurance that any of the
Group’s products will be approved in any territory within the timescale envisaged by the Board, or at all, and this may
result in a delay, or make impossible, the commercial exploitation of the Group’s products. Furthermore, each regulatory
authority may impose its own requirements and may refuse to grant, or may require additional data before granting, an
approval, even though the relevant product may have been approved by another country’s authority.

If regulatory approval is obtained, products will be subject to continual review and there can be no assurance that such
approvals will not be withdrawn or restricted. Changes in applicable legislation or regulatory policies, or discovery of
problems with products may result in the imposition of restrictions on sale, including withdrawal of the product from the
market, or may otherwise have an adverse effect on the Group’s business and/or revenue streams.

Liquidity

Management of liquidity risk concentrated on the maintenance of appropriate credit lines and funding sources to ensure
adequate cash resources for the Group’s operations.

Key performance indicators

During the year the Company maintained its cash position as the key performance indicator. The cash balances at the
31 May 2014 were £874,000 (2013 £342,000). Following the acquisitions the Company will be using new key
performance indicators that will be set by the board, this will include cash positions, the renewal of contracts and the
winning of new contracts. In addition the gaining of regulatory approval for products will also be used as a key
performance indicator.

Directors’ Report

CONTINUED

Employment policies
The Group is committed to employee involvement in the business and there are consultative procedures available for
management and other employees to discuss matters of mutual interest.

The Group has a policy of non-discrimination in respect of sex, colour, religion, race, nationality or ethnic origin and the
recruitment of disabled persons is only subject to any overriding consideration of access and safety.

Creditor payment policies
The Group’s policy for all suppliers is to fix terms of payment when agreeing the terms of each business transaction, to
ensure the supplier is aware of those terms and to abide by the agreed terms of payment. Payment terms for the year
ended 31 May 2014 averaged 30 days (2013: 45 days).

Treasury policy
The Group has adopted formal treasury policies to control its financial instruments. It is a Group Treasury policy not to
undertake transactions of a speculative nature. Group cash flows are managed centrally and surplus cash is invested in
short-term financial instruments. Future transactions under the new Group are more likely to be undertaken in foreign
currencies and the Board will monitor the policies in place.

Compliance with these policies is monitored by the Board. Other than for currency disclosures, the Group has taken
advantage of the exemption permitting it not to treat short-term debtors and creditors as financial instruments.

Statement of directors’ responsibilities
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Group and parent Company financial statements in accordance with
applicable laws and regulations.

Company law requires the Directors to prepare Group and parent Company financial statements for each financial year.
Under that law the Directors are required to prepare the Group and parent Company financial statements in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU.

The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and parent
Company and of the profit and loss of the Group for that period.

In preparing each of the Group and parent Company financial statements the Directors are required to:

(cid:1)

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

(cid:1) make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

state whether they have been prepared in accordance with IFRS’s as adopted by the EU subject to any material
departures disclosed and explained in the parent Company financial statements; and

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group and
the parent Company will continue in business.

The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time
the financial position of the Group and parent Company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements
comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Article 4 of the IAS Regulation. They have general responsibility for taking such
steps as are reasonably open to safeguard the assets of the Group and parent Company and to prevent and detect fraud
and other irregularities.

Directors’ Report

CONTINUED

Under applicable law and regulations the Directors are also responsible for preparing a Strategic Report and a Directors’
Report to comply with that law and those regulations.

In determining how amounts are presented within terms in the income statement and balance sheet the Directors have
had regard to the substance of the reported transaction or arrangement in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles or practice.

Audit information
The Directors who were in office on the date of approval of these financial statements have confirmed, as far as they are
aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the auditors are unaware.

Each of the Directors have confirmed that they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as Directors in order
to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company’s auditors are aware of
that information.

A resolution to reappoint haysmacintyre as auditors to the Company will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Corporate Governance Statement

Under the AIM rules the Group is not obliged to implement the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code (‘the
Code’). However, the Group is committed to applying the principles of good governance contained in the Code as
appropriate to a Group of this size.

In common with other organisations of a similar size, the Executive Director is heavily involved in the day-to-day running
of the business. The Board of Directors meets regularly and is responsible for formulating strategy, and for the trading
subsidiaries, monitoring financial performance and approving major items of capital expenditure. All Directors have access
to the advice and services of the Company Secretary.

During the year the Board comprised one Executive Director including the Chairman and up to three Non-Executive
Directors. In view of the size and management structure of Feedback plc, the Company has not complied with certain
aspects of the Combined Code as discussed below.

Board of Directors
The Board included up to three Non-Executive Directors, although for a period when the Company was an Investing
Company only one Non-Executive was on the Board, which was considered appropriate. The Board has scheduled monthly
meetings each year and others as required. The Board retains full responsibility for the direction and control of the Group.
No strategic powers have been delegated and for these reasons the Board did not have, during the year, a formal schedule
of matters specifically reserved to it (Paragraph A1 of the Code).

There is currently no formal agreed procedure for Directors in the furtherance of their duties to take independent
professional advice as necessary at the Company’s expense (paragraph A5 of the Code).

Non-executive Directors
The appointment of Non-Executive Directors is a matter for the Board as a whole. Although recommended by the Code,
there is currently no formal selection process. The Non-Executive Directors have contracts for services for an unspecified
period. (Paragraph A7 of the Code). Non-Executive Directors are subject to re-election every three years.

Terms and conditions of appointment of the Non-Executive Directors are available for inspection.

Executive Directors
Directors are appointed by the Board of Directors but stand for election by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
The Executive Directors are subject to re-election every three years.

Board Committees
A Remuneration Committee was in place comprising the three Non-Executive Directors. The Remuneration Committee has
two scheduled meetings in the year. All serving members attended both meetings held in the year.

An Audit Committee was in place comprising two Non-Executive Directors. The Company’s approach to internal control is
described below. The Audit Committee has two scheduled meetings in the year. Both serving members attended both
meetings held in the year.

There is no Nomination Committee. Given the size of the Group, the Board do not consider a Nomination Committee
appropriate (paragraph A4 of the Code).

Corporate Governance Statement

CONTINUED

Performance evaluation
There is currently no formal performance evaluation of the board, its committees and its individual directors (paragraph
A6.1 of the Code).

Communication with shareholders
The Directors are available to shareholders at any time to discuss strategy and governance matters.

In addition, all Company announcements are published on the Company’s website, together with financial results.

All shareholders have the opportunity to ask questions and express their views at the Company’s Annual General Meeting,
at which all Directors are available to take questions.

Audit and internal control
The primary role of the Audit Committee was to keep under review the Group’s financial systems and controls and its
financial reporting procedures. In fulfilling this role, the Committee received and reviews work carried out by the external
auditors and their findings.

The Board had overall responsibility for operating and monitoring the system of internal control within the Group and for
monitoring its effectiveness. The system includes an on-going process for identifying, evaluating and managing significant
business risks. Although no system of internal control can provide absolute assurance against material misstatement or
loss, the Group’s system was designed to provide the directors with reasonable assurance that any material problems were
identified on a timely basis and dealt with appropriately.

Guidance to Directors of UK Companies on internal control procedures and good practice on risk management is provided
by the Financial Reporting Council.

The Audit Committee reviewed the effectiveness of the internal controls on an annual basis on behalf of the Board and
considered that they have complied throughout the year ended 31 May 2014 with those provisions of the Code which
they consider to be practicable and appropriate for a relatively small public company.

The key elements of the system, which had been designed to meet the specific needs and business risks of the Group,
include:

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

clearly defined organisation structures with segregation of duties wherever practicable;

agreement of Group short term financial objectives and business plans;

(cid:1) monthly review by the Board of Group Financial Statements and monitoring of results against budgets;

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

Board control over treasury, taxation, legal, insurance and personnel issues;

Board control over appraisal, review and authorisation of capital expenditure.

In common with organisations of similar size the Executive Director is heavily involved in the day to day running of the
business. The directors believe that although the Company’s controls may be slightly less formal than those of larger
companies, the close involvement of the Executive Director more than compensated for this.

The Board believes that it is not currently appropriate for the Company to maintain an internal audit function because of
the small size of the Group.

Corporate Governance Statement

CONTINUED

The Audit Committee considered the independence and objectivity of the external auditors on an annual basis, with
particular regard to non-audit services. The split between audit and non-audit fees for the year and information on the
nature of the non-audit fees appear in note 6 to the financial statements. The non-audit fees are considered by the
Committee not to affect the independence or objectivity of the auditors. The Audit Committee monitors such costs in the
context of the audit fee for the year, ensuring that the value of non-audit services does not increase to a level where it
could affect the auditors’ objectivity and independence. The Audit Committee also received an annual confirmation of
independence from the auditors.

With the exception of the matters referred to above the Company has complied throughout the financial year with
provisions of The UK Corporate Governance Code (September 2012 edition).

Going concern
After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue
in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in
preparing the accounts. Further information in respect of the Director’s consideration of going concern is included in note
3(c) to the financial statements.

audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors

Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s Ethical
Standards for Auditors.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. General information
During the prior year the Company sold its remaining operating subsidiary, Feedback Data plc, and on 31 May 2013
became an investing company. On 19 May 2014 the Company acquired two subsidiaries in the medical imaging sector,
Cambridge Computed Imaging Limited and TexRAD Limited. The Group is now focused on medical imaging.

The Company is a public limited company domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated under registered
number 00598696 in England and Wales. The Company’s registered office is Grange Park, Broadway, Bourn,
Cambridgeshire, CB23 2TA.

The Company is listed on AIM of the London Stock Exchange. These Financial Statements were authorised for issue by the
Board of Directors on the 27 October 2014.

2. Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards
No new International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), amendments or interpretations became effective in 2014
which had a material effect on this financial information.

At the date of approval of this financial information, the following IFRS Standards and Interpretations, which have not been
applied in these Financial Statements, were in issue but not yet effective. These new Standards, Amendments and
Interpretations expected to apply to the Group and are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after the dates
shown below:

IFRS Standards and Interpretations issued (and EU adopted) but not yet effective:

IAS 19 Amendment – Employee Benefits (effective periods beginning 1 July 2014)

IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (effective periods beginning 1 January 2014)

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective periods beginning 1 January 2014)

IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (effective periods beginning 1 January 2014)

Transition Guidance (Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12) (effective periods beginning 1 January 2014)

IAS 36 Amendments Recoverable Amount Disclosures for non-Financial Assets (effective periods beginning 1 January 2014)

The Group has not early adopted these amended standards and interpretations. The Directors do not anticipate that the
adoption of these standards and interpretations will have a material impact on the reported results.

3. Significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with those IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations issued
and effective or issued and early adopted as at the time of preparing these statements. The policies set out below have
been consistently applied to all the years presented.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

No separate income statement is presented for the parent Company as provided by Section 408, Companies Act 2006.

During the prior period the group disposed of its subsidiary Feedback Data plc. The results of the subsidiary were disclosed
as discontinued operations.

During the year the group disposed of its property (held by Brickshield Limited). The disposed property was classified ‘as
held for sale’ in 2013.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(b) Basis of consolidation

The Group financial statements consolidate the financial statements of Feedback plc and its subsidiaries (the ”Group”) for
the years ended 31 May 2013 and 2014 using the acquisition method.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the parent company, using consistent
accounting policies. All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from them, are
eliminated. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group.

(c) Going Concern

The Group disposed of its investment property for £940,000 during the year. The Company was an Investing Company until,
on 19 May 2014, the Company acquired two subsidiaries in the medical imaging market, Cambridge Computed Imaging
Limited and TexRAD Limited. The Group is now focused on medical imaging.

The Directors have produced forecasts which show that the Group and Company has adequate cash resources for at least
the next twelve months from the date of this report. The Directors believe that the company is a going concern and have
therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis

(d) Intangible assets

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. An intangible asset
acquired as part of a business combination is recognised outside goodwill if the asset is separable or arises from contractual
or other legal rights and its fair value can be reliably measured.

The significant intangible assets related to software development of products which are integral to the trade of the Group’s
medical imaging products. Amortisation is recognised in other operating expenses in the income and expenditure account.

The carrying value of intangible assets is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate
that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognised in other operating expenses in the
income and expenditure account. Impairment reviews will be carried out annually.

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the
design and testing of new or improved products) are recognised as intangible assets when it is probable that the project
will be a success, considering its commercial and technological feasibility, and costs can be measured reliably. Other
development expenditures are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an
expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period. Development costs that have a finite useful life and that
have been capitalised were amortised from the commencement of the commercial production of the product on a straight
line basis as follows:

Intangible asset

Useful economic life

Patents

Over the life of the patent

Software development

Customer relationships

Development expenditure

4 years

4 years

3 years

(e) Valuation of Investments

Investments held as non-current assets are stated at cost less any provision for impairment.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

(g) Goodwill

Business combinations on or after 1 April 2006 are accounted for under IFRS 3 using the acquistion method. Any excess
of the cost of business combinations over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities is recognised in the balance sheet as goodwill and is not amortised.

After initial recognition, goodwill is not amortised but is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment loss, with the
carrying value being reviewed for impairment, at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate
that the carrying value may be impaired.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the related cash generating units monitored by
management. Where the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount, including
goodwill, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

(h) Property, plant and equipment

All property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Depreciation on other assets is provided
on cost or valuation less estimated residual value in equal annual instalments over the estimated lives of the assets. The
rates of depreciation are as follows:

Plant and equipment

10 – 50% p.a.

Motor vehicles

25 – 33% p.a.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised
in the income statement.

(i)

Leases

Assets held under finance leases and the related lease obligations are recorded in the balance sheet at the fair value of
the leased assets at the inception of the leases. The amounts by which the lease payments exceed the recorded lease
obligations are treated as finance charges which are amortised over each lease term to give a constant rate of charge on
the remaining balance of the obligation. Rental costs under operating leases are charged to the income statement in equal
annual amounts over the period of the lease.

(j)

Foreign currency

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates ruling at the date of the transactions.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the rates ruling
at that date. These translation differences are dealt with in the income statement. Assets and liabilities of the overseas
subsidiaries are translated into sterling at the closing rate of exchange and trading results at the average rate of exchange
for the period. These translation differences are dealt with as a movement in reserves.

(k) Revenue recognition

Revenue, which is stated net of Value Added Tax, represents the total amount receivable in the ordinary course of business
after eliminating intra-Group transactions.

Where contracts are entered into offering services over a period of time the revenue is recognised over the period of the
contract.

(l) Pension Costs

The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme during the prior year. The pension charge represents the
amounts payable by the Company to the scheme in respect of that year.

Defined benefit scheme

The Company formerly operated a defined benefit pension scheme. During 2007 the scheme was transferred to the
Pension Protection Fund (PPF) for assessment. The PPF completed its assessment and confirmed the transfer in February
2012. The Company no longer makes contributions to the scheme and has no ongoing obligations in relation to the
scheme.

(m) Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the current tax expense and deferred tax expense.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the
income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it
further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated by using tax
rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is
accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary
differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available
against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the
temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business
combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction which affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and
associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary
difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled based upon tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items credited or charged directly
to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.

(n) Financial instruments

In relation to the disclosures made in note 19:

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

22

short term debtors and creditors are not treated as financial assets or financial liabilities except for the currency
disclosures.

the Group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

(o) Employee share options and warrants

The Group has applied the requirements of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment.

The Group issues equity-settled share-based payment transactions to certain employees and has issued warrants to the
vendors of the acquired subsidiary, TexRAD Limited. Equity-settled share-based payment transactions are measured at fair
value at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of equity-settled share-based payments is expensed
on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. Fair value
is measured by use of the Black Scholes option pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted,
based on management’s best estimate, for the effect of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural
considerations.

(q) Non current assets held for sale

Non current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

Assets are recognised as held for sale and are redesignated within current assets when available for immediate sale in
their present condition subject only to completion of terms. A sale is only considered to be highly probable when the
appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset, and an active marketing program to locate a
buyer has been initiated.

(r) Key sources of estimating uncertainty

The preparation of financial statements requires management and the Board of Directors to make estimates and judgments
that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates are based on historical
experience and various other assumptions that management and the Board of Directors believe are reasonable under the
circumstances, the results which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources.

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

Intangible assets – are recognised only when it is probable that a project will be a success. There is a risk therefore
that a project previously assessed as likely to be successful fails to reach the desired level of commercial or
technological feasibility

Fair value measurement – a number of assets included in the Group’s financial statements require measurement at
fair value. The following items are carried in the financial statements at fair value

o

The fair value of the consideration paid for subsidiary undertakings.

4. Segmental reporting
The Directors have determined the operating segments based on the management reports that are used to make strategic
decisions. In 2013 the Data segment relates to the subsidiary company Feedback Data plc which was disposed of on
31 May 2013. The results therefore include the results of the Data business for the full year to 31 May 2013.

Following the acquisition of Cambridge Computed Imaging Limited and TexRAD Limited the Group has now defined a
Medical Imaging segment.

Goodwill arising on consolidation representing intangible assets not qualifying for separable recognition.

The costs related to the acquisitions of £164,000 have been recognised as part of the administration costs, although
shown separately, in the statement of comprehensive income. The subsidiaries contributed £7,000 of revenue to the
group and no profit or loss in the period since acquisition.

Had the subsidiaries been part of the Group for the full year from 1 June 2013, Group revenue would have been £364,000
and Group loss would have been £471,000.

None of the goodwill arising on consolidation is tax deductible.

Included within other payables is a loan and interest thereon from a company connected to a shareholder of £Nil (2013
£245,000). The loan attracted interest at 12% per annum and was secured on the group’s property. The loan was repayable
within 6 months and was fully repaid on 31 July 2013 following the sale of the property.

Included in other payables is an amount of £189,000 due to T W G Charlton. Mr Charlton had a debt due by Cambridge
Computed Imaging Limited to Panvista Limited assigned to him. For further detail see note 23.

18. Financial instruments
The Group’s overall risk management programme seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial
performance.

The Group’s financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents and various items such as trade payables and
receivables that arise directly from its operations. The Group is exposed through its operations to the following risks:

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

(cid:1)

Credit risk

Foreign currency risk

Liquidity risk

Cash flow interest rate risk

Fair value Hierarchy

The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation
technique:

— Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

— Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable,

either directly or indirectly

— Level 3: techniques that use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on

observable market data

The share options and warrants issued by the group during the year are valued under level three above as noted in
note 19 below.

18. Financial instruments (continued)
In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This
note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks. Further quantitative information
in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.

There have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risks and consequently the
objectives, policies and processes are unchanged from the previous period.

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management policies. The objective of the
Board is to set policies that seek to reduce the risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness
and effectiveness. Further details of these policies are set out below:

Credit risk

The Group was exposed to credit risk primarily on its trade receivables, which are spread over a range of countries, a factor
that helped to dilute the concentration of the risk.

It was Group policy, implemented locally, to assess the credit risk of each new customer before entering into binding
contracts. Each customer account was then reviewed on an ongoing basis (at least once a year) based on available
information and payment history.

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying value in the balance sheet.

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk
at the reporting date was:

The Group policy is to make provisions against those debts that are overdue, unless there are grounds for believing that
all or some of the debts would be collected. During the year the value of provisions made in respect of bad and doubtful
debts was £Nil (2013: £Nil). Any provision made is included within the management and administration costs in the
Consolidated Income Statement. The debtors profile with the acquired companies has increased due to the nature of the
date of invoice and the implantation of the software. Where the software had not been implemented no revenue has
been taken.

Foreign currency risk

During the year the Group experienced no foreign currency risk. Following the acquisitions on 19 May 2014 future foreign
exchange transaction risk will arise when the Group enters into transactions denominated in a currency other than their
functional currency. Excess foreign currency amounts generated from trading will be converted back to sterling and required
foreign currency amounts for suppliers will be converted from sterling and the use of forward currency contracts was
considered.

The Group’s main foreign currency risk will be the short-term risk associated with accounts receivable and payable
denominated in currencies that were not the subsidiaries functional currency. The risk will arise on the difference in the
exchange rate between the time invoices were raised/received and the time invoices were settled/paid.

The following table shows the net assets exposed to exchange rate risk that the Group has at 31 May 2014:

The Group is exposed to currency risk because of the subsidiaries undertaking trading transactions in US dollars and Euros.
The Directors do not generally consider it necessary to enter into derivative financial instruments to manage the exchange
risk arising from its operations, but from time to time where the Directors consider foreign currencies are weak and it is
known that there would be a requirement to purchase those currencies, forward arrangements may be entered into.
There were no outstanding forward arrangements as at 31 May 2014.

Liquidity risk

Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group. Rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity
requirements are monitored to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs.

Share Options

Share options are granted to Directors and employees. Options are conditional on the employee completing a specific
length of service (the vesting period). The options are exercisable from the end of the vesting period and lapse after ten
years after the grant date. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to repurchase or settle the options in cash.

Share options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and no performance conditions are included in the
fair value calculations. The risk free rate was 1.64%. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility over the last
two years and is estimated to be 25%. The average share price during the year was 0.85 pence. During the year the

Warrants

Warrants were issued to the vendors of TexRAD Limited at the time of acquisition. The warrants are exercisable from the
end of the vesting period and lapse after ten years after the grant date. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation

Explanatory Notes to the Notice of Annual General Meeting
The notes on the following pages give an explanation of the proposed resolutions. Resolutions 1 to 6 are proposed as
ordinary resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must
be in favour of the resolution. Resolution 7 is proposed as a special resolution. This means that for this resolution to be
passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

Resolution 1: Approval of the annual report and accounts

The Company is required to present its report and accounts to shareholders at its AGM. This provides an opportunity to
discuss the performance of the Company during the year, its management and prospects for the future.

Resolutions 2-4: Re-election of directors

The Company’s articles of association require one-third (but if the number of current Directors of the Board is not three
or a multiple of three, as close to one-third as possible (but no more)), of the Board to retire and seek re-election at each
AGM. As a consequence, Simon Barrell retires by rotation and being eligible, the Board proposes his re-election as a
Director of the Company. Tom Charlton and Trevor Brown are retiring at the first AGM since their appointment and the board
propose them for re-election as Directors of the Company.

Resolution 5: Auditors reappointment and remuneration

It is a requirement that the Company’s auditor must be reappointed at each general meeting at which financial statements
are laid, in effect, at each AGM. After considering relevant information, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board
the reappointment of haysmacintyre. The resolution proposes haysmacintyre’s reappointment and to authorise the
Directors to determine their remuneration.

Resolution 6: Directors’ power to allot relevant securities

Under section 551 of the Act, relevant securities may only be issued with the consent of the shareholders, unless the
shareholders pass a resolution generally authorising the Directors to issue shares without further reference to the
shareholders. This resolution authorises the general issue of shares up to an aggregate nominal value of £158,955.62,
which is equal to one third of the nominal value of the current share capital of the Company. Such authority will expire
at the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company or six months after the Company’s accounting reference date (whichever
is the earlier).

Resolution 7: Disapplication of pre-emption rights on equity issues for cash

Section 561 of the Act requires that a company issuing shares for cash must first offer them to existing shareholders following
a statutory procedure which, in the case of a rights issue, may prove to be both costly and cumbersome. This resolution seeks
to dis-apply the pre-emption rights provisions of Section 561 of the Companies Act. There may be occasions when the
Directors will need the flexibility to finance business opportunities by the issue of ordinary shares without a pre-emptive offer
to existing ordinary shareholders. It also enables the Directors to allot shares up to an aggregate nominal value of £95,373.37,
which will be equal to 20% of the nominal value of the current share capital of the Company, assuming resolution 6 being
passed. The Directors believe that the powers provided by this resolution will maintain a desirable degree of flexibility. Unless
previously revoked or varied, the disapplication will expire on the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company or six months
after the Company’s accounting reference date (whichever is the earlier).

time for receipt of proxy appointments (see above) also apply in relation to amended instructions; any amended proxy
