Capital Management and Investment PLC
("CMI" or the "Company")
Interim Results for the six month period ended 31 July 2013
Chairman's Statement
Introduction
As at 31 July 2013 the Company had 2 investments: a 2.8% (2012 - 7%)
shareholding in Algeco Scotsman Holdings ("ASH") and a 7% (2012 - 7%)
shareholding in Magticom. The fair value of the Company's investment in
ASH was increased in the final accounts for the year to 31(st) January
2013 to reflect recent performance, growth, and refinancing. The fair
value of the Company's investment in Magticom remains unchanged.
Results for the period
The Consolidated Income Statement shows a loss before tax of GBP0.191m
(2012 - Loss GBP0.108m).
Other income of GBP0.121m (2012 - GBP0.181m) comprises GBP0.058m (2012 -
GBP0.03m) fees paid by Algeco Scotsman in relation to the monitoring of
our investment and GBP0.063m (2012 - GBP0.151m) from Yola Investments
SARL in relation to monitoring fees of our investment in Magticom.
Administrative expenses of GBP0.312m (2012 - GBP0.287m) include
GBP0.125m (2012 - GBP0.125m) payable for office services and GBP0.108m
(2012 - GBP0.099m) of professional fees. Your board continues to take
steps to minimise administrative expenses where possible.
Net asset value ("NAV") per share is GBP3.51 (2012 - GBP1.40) and the
Company had net cash balances of GBP0.886m (2012 - 1.471m) at the period
end.
Investment in Algeco Scotsman Holdings ("ASH")
On 14 May 2013 ASH announced a $400m 5 year payment-in-kind loan
placement. The proceeds of the issue are intended to be used to return
funds to shareholders. CMI's share of the proceeds is approximately
GBP6.77m. CMI received this amount in the form of a loan from ASH on 10
October 2013. This is in anticipation of a proposed share capital
reduction by ASH in January 2014. Assuming the capital reduction takes
place then the cash will be classified as a return of capital.
Investment in Yola Investments Sarl ("Yola")
The Company holds an indirect investment of 7% in Magticom, the largest
mobile telephone operator in The Republic of Georgia via its 33%
shareholding in Yola Investments Sarl. Yola owns 43% of Metromedia
International Group ("MIG") which in turn owns 46% of Magticom.
Your board believes that the 46% shareholding that MIG holds in Magticom
is worth less than the value of the loan notes to third parties,
outstanding in MIG, as the value of the outstanding loan notes of
c.$210m is higher than a likely exit value based on a multiple of
EBITDA. Consequently your Board continue to show the carrying value of
its shareholding in Yola in the Financial Statements at GBPNil.
Strategy going forward
CMI continues to actively monitor its investments in Yola and ASH
through regular meetings with the management teams of ASH and Magticom,
receipt of monthly financial reports, and attendance at board meetings.
Your board takes the view that the market capitalisation of CMI should
move broadly in line with the value of the underlying investments in ASH
and Yola. The market price of CMI shares is a significant discount to
NAV at the balance sheet date. Your board believes that part of the
reason is both the illiquidity of the shares and the current illiquidity
of the investments that it holds.
Dividends
The board is not recommending payment of a dividend for the period under
review (2012 - GBPNil).

Notes
1 Basis of Preparation
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting
Standards and Interpretations (collectively IFRS) issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by European
Union ("adopted IFRSs"), and are in accordance with IFRS as issued by
the IASB and with those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to

The financial information for the six months ended 31 July 2013 and 31
July 2012 is unreviewed and unaudited and does not constitute the

statements for that period. A copy of those statutory financial
statements has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The
auditors' reports on those accounts were unqualified, did not include
reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of
emphasis without qualifying their report and did not contain a statement
under section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
2 Earnings per ordinary share
The basic and diluted loss per share of GBP0.03 (2012 - GBP0.02 per
share) is calculated by reference to the loss after taxation of
GBP191,000 (2012 - GBP108,000) and the weighted average number of
ordinary shares in issue during the year of 7,162,133 (2012 -
7,162,133).
