Chairman's statement
Introduction
As at 31 January 2015 the Company had 2 investments: a 2.8% (2014 -
2.8%) shareholding in Algeco Scotsman Holdings ("ASH") and a 7% (2014 -
7%) shareholding in Magticom. The fair value of the Company's investment
in ASH has been reduced as at 31 January 2015 to reflect recent
performance whilst the fair value of the Company's investment in
Magticom remains unchanged at GBPnil.
Results for the year
The consolidated income statement shows a loss before tax of GBP5.584m
(2014 - Profit of GBP2.986m). This is primarily due to the fair value
adjustment in the carrying value of the Company's shareholding in ASH of
GBP(5.168)m.
Other income of GBP0.162m (2014 - GBP0.244m) comprises GBP0.102m (2014 -
GBP0.120m) fees paid by ASH in relation to the monitoring of our
investment and GBP0.06m (2014 - GBP0.124m) from Yola Investments SARL in
relation to the monitoring of our investment in Magticom. CMI ceased
receiving monitoring fees from Yola during the year.
Administrative expenses of GBP0.588m (2014 - GBP0.744m) include GBP0.25m
(2014 - GBP0.25m) payable for office services. Your board continues to
take steps to minimise administrative expenses where possible.
Net asset value ("NAV") per share is GBP2.73 (2014 - GBP3.76) and the
Company had net cash balances of GBP6.534m (2014 - GBP7.088m) at the
year end.
Investment in Algeco Scotsman Holdings ("ASH")
Reported EBITDA for ASH was $441m for the year to December 2014 (FY2013
of $496m, which is adjusted on a pro-forma basis for acquisitions).The
decline in EBITDA was primarily due to continued market weakness in Asia
Pacific, where sales continue to suffer from the slowdown in the Mining
and Resources sector, and there was also some negative impact on the
results from unfavourable currency movements.
The directors continue to value the shareholding using peer group EBITDA
multiples (discounted to reflect the lack of marketability of the
shareholding) and adjusted for debt of $3,534 million (including a $514m
PIK loan) in line with International Private Equity Valuation
Guidelines. Adopting these principles, the board reduced the total
carrying value of its 2.8% equity holding to GBP13.0m (2014 - GBP19.9m)
in the statutory accounts for the year to 31 January 2015.
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.
Trading at Magticom during 2014 was difficult in a challenging economic
and competitive environment, however EBITDA for the year to December
2014 increased from $74m to $79m.
On 1 July 2014 MIG went into Chapter 11 as a result of its inability to
make the payments of interest due on the loan notes. MIG currently
remains in Chapter 11 and is exploring various restructuring options.
The 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
approximately $252m is higher than a likely exit value based on a
multiple of EBITDA. Consequently the 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.
The 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 at a significant discount to
NAV at the balance sheet date. The board believes that part of the
reason is both the illiquidity of the shares and the current illiquidity
of the investments that it holds. However, your board believes that if
its investment in Algeco Scotsman were to become more liquid then there
could be a significant rerating of your company.
Dividends
The board is not recommending payment of a dividend for the year under
review (2014 - GBPNil).

1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial information set out in these preliminary results does not
constitute the company's statutory accounts for the periods ended 31
January 2015 or 31 January 2014.
Statutory accounts for the period ended 31 January 2014 have been filed
with the Registrar of Companies and those for the period ended 31
January 2015 will be delivered to the Registrar in due course; both have
been reported on by the Independent Auditors. The independent auditors'
reports on the Report and Financial Statements for the periods ended 31
January 2015 and 31 January 2014 were unqualified, did not draw
attention to any matters by way of emphasis, and did not contain a
statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial information in these preliminary results has been prepared
using the recognition and measurement principles of International
Accounting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and
Interpretations adopted for use in the European Union (collectively
Adopted IFRSs). The accounting policies adopted in these preliminary
results have been consistently applied to all the years presented and
are consistent with the policies used in the preparation of the
statutory accounts for the period ended 31 January 2014.
2 Loss per share
The basic loss per share is GBP0.78 (2014 - GBP0.42 earnings per share)
is calculated by reference to the loss after taxation of GBP5,596,000
(2014 profit - GBP2,977,000) and the weighted average number of ordinary
shares in issue during the year of 7,162,133 (2014 - 7,162,133).
The approved and unapproved options are not dilutive in the current
year. Consequently they have been omitted from the EPS calculation. In
the prior year the diluted loss per share was GBP0.41, calculated by
reference to the 2014 loss after taxation of GBP2,977,000 and the fully
diluted weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during 2014
of 7,312,134.

The fair value of the investments in Algeco Scotsman SARL and Yola
Management SARL have been assessed by the directors in line with the
accounting policies adopted by the company.
Investment in Algeco Scotsman
Algeco Scotsman Holding SARL ("ASH") was formed in October 2007
following the merger of Algeco, Europe's leading modular construction
and mobile storage business, with Williams Scotsman, the dominant
modular storage rental business in North America.
In December 2009 ASH successfully completed a financial restructuring
that resulted in a significant reduction in debt held by third parties
and an agreement by the shareholders to invest an additional EUR125
million into the capital of the company.
Following the restructuring, CMI's existing equity shareholding in ASH
reduced from approximately 28% to around 1% which was the position as at
31 January 2010.
CMI entered into an option agreement with the principal shareholder of
ASH, TDR Capital, to invest up to EUR10 million of new equity into ASH
on broadly the same terms as the TDR investment on or before 30 April
2010.
Following the Placing and Open Offer of Ordinary shares, CMI exercised
this option on 23 April 2010 and paid the first instalment of EUR6.227m
(GBP5.331m) on 30 April 2010. The balance of EUR4.08m (GBP3.470m) was
paid on 21 September 2010. Following this, CMI owned 6.58% of the
ordinary share capital of ASH.
On 12 October 2013 ASH completed the acquisition of Ausco Modular
Holdings Ltd and a refinancing that involved the repayment or
capitalisation of all existing bank lending facilities and issue of
EUR2,195m of new secured and unsecured bonds.
The Ausco acquisition gives ASH a significant market presence in the
Asia-Pacific region, substantial exposure to high growth markets, and
expansion of the company's current geographic footprint.
ASH also completed a refinancing of its debt facilities during 2013. ASH
issued $1,075 million principal amount of 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due
for repayment in 2018 and EUR275 million aggregate principal amount of
9.00% Senior Secured Notes due for repayment in 2018 (collectively, the
"Senior Secured Notes") and $745 million aggregate principal amount of
10.75% Senior Unsecured Notes due for repayment in 2019 (the "Senior
Unsecured Notes" and, together with the Senior Secured Notes, the
"Notes"), and secured an additional asset backed facility of up to $1.2
billion. All existing debt facilities were either capitalised or repaid.
As a result of this acquisition and restructuring, CMI's shareholding in
the enlarged group decreased from 6.57% to 2.78%.
On 14 May 2013 ASH announced a $400m 5 year PIK loan placement. The
proceeds of the issue were used to return funds to shareholders via
capital redemption of ordinary shares. CMI received GBP6.351m on 2
October 2013.
Reported EBITDA for ASH was $441m for the year to December 2014 (FY2013
$496m, which is adjusted on a pro-forma basis for acquisitions). The
decline in EBITDA was primarily due to continued market weakness in Asia
Pacific, where sales continue to suffer from the slowdown in the Mining
and Resources sector, and there was also some negative impact on the
results from unfavourable currency movements.
The directors continue to value the shareholding using a peer group
EBITDA multiple of 9.17 (discounted by 20% to reflect the lack of
marketability of the shareholding) and adjusted for debt of $3,534
million (including $514m PIK loan) in line with International Private
Equity Valuation Guidelines. Adopting these principles, the board
reduced the total carrying value of its 2.8% equity holding to GBP13.0m
(2014 - GBP19.9m) in the statutory accounts for the year to 31 January
2015.
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.
Trading at Magticom during 2014 was difficult in a challenging economic
and competitive environment, however EBITDA for the year to December
2014 increased from $74m to $79m. The directors believe that an EBITDA
multiple of 5 represents their best estimate of the multiple to value
the investment.
On 1 July 2014 MIG went into Chapter 11 as a result of its inability to
make the payments of interest due on the loan notes. MIG currently
remains in Chapter 11 and is exploring various restructuring options.
The 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$252m
is higher than a likely exit value based on a multiple of EBITDA.
Consequently the Board continue to show the carrying value of its
shareholding in Yola in the Financial Statements at GBPNil.
4 Financial instruments
Equity Investments
These investments are carried at fair value and any adjustments to this
fair value are recognised in the income statement, giving rise to fair
value risk.
Where investments are held in unquoted equity instruments the fair value
of these investments is determined:
- initially at cost (which is the fair value of the consideration
given), less any required provision; and
- subsequently using an earnings multiple model.
The process of estimating the Fair Value of an investment involves
selecting one of the above methodologies and using that to derive an
Enterprise Value for the investee company. The process is then to:
-- deduct from the Enterprise Value all financial instruments ranking ahead
of CMI
-- apply an appropriate marketability discount
-- apportion the remaining value over the equity shares.
The Marketability Discount will generally be between 10% - 30% with the
level set to reflect CMI's influence over the exit prospects and timing
for the investee company.
When using the earnings multiple methodology, earnings before interest,
tax, depreciation, and amortisation ("EBITDA") are used - generally from
the last full year historical statutory or management accounts. An
appropriate multiple is applied to these earnings to derive an
Enterprise Value.
In the current year a fair value adjustment of GBP5.168m (2014 -
GBP3.486m) was recognised within the income statement. Both investments
are classified under the fair value measurement hierarchy as level 3
financial assets.
