Palmaris Capital Plc
("Palmaris" or the "Company")
Results for year ended 30 June 2011
and Notice of AGM
The Board of Palmaris, the investment company with a 16.1%
holding in Scottish Resources Group Limited ("SRG"), which is the
largest surface mining coal producer in the UK and is the Company's
sole remaining investment, is pleased to present its audited
results for the year ended 30 June 2011.
Key points include:
-- A loss on ordinary activities before tax of approximately GBP115,000 (2010: GBP167,000).
-- Net assets at 9.9p per share (2010: 10p).
-- Directors' valuation of Palmaris's 16.1% holding in Scottish
Resources Group held at 96p per SRG share.
-- SRG reported lower revenues and profitability for the year to
March 2011, but as indicated in our interim results, sales prices
for the current year are benefiting from new coal contracts that
are already delivering a significant rise in per gigajoule average
prices in the current year. SRG's performance is expected to be
significantly better than the results for the year to March
2011.

Chairman's Statement
Results
The loss for the year, represented by the net cost of running
the company, was GBP115,000, as compared with GBP167,000 the
previous year. This reduction in the loss arose as the directors
agreed to take no further fees or remuneration with effect from 1
January 2011 in order to help maintain the cash resources of the
company. This resulted in a saving of some GBP45,000 in the
year.
Our remaining investment is a 16.1% holding in Scottish
Resources Group Limited (SRG), the main Scottish opencast coal
operator with significant development land potential and a
portfolio of renewable energy project opportunities. The valuation
of this investment is difficult to assess due to the fluctuation of
SRG's earnings and the fluctuations in stock market values of
similar companies. The directors still believe that the price of
96p per SRG share, which values SRG at GBP96m, represents a fair
assessment. This maintains the value of our holding at GBP15.45m
and our net assets therefore come out at GBP15.5m (9.9p per
Palmaris share).
Scottish Resources Group
After an excellent year to March 2010, in which SRG reported
turnover of GBP229.9m, operating profits of GBP33.1m, and profits
after tax of GBP21.2m, the year to March 2011 was always expected
to be much less profitable, as indicated in our interim statement
earlier this year. The turnover was GBP209.2m, operating profits
down to GBP13.1m, and profit after tax down to GBP0.3m. The last of
these figures was affected by a one-off cost of GBP4.2m for the
costs of the aborted IPO attempt during the summer of 2010.
Although coal sales remained at the same level of 4.0m tonnes as
in 2010, the sales price achieved per gigajoule was GBP2.15 as
compared with GBP2.35 the previous year and this reduction fed
straight through to the bottom line. The sales price was affected
by long-term contracts set in earlier years. Fortunately, also as
indicated in our interim statement, the sales prices for the
current year are benefiting from new coal contracts that are
already delivering a significant rise in per gigajoule average
prices in the current year. SRG's performance will as a result be
much improved.
During the last two years SRG has invested heavily in new
opencast sites, spending GBP22m on them and also GBP32m on new
plant and equipment. This level of investment will allow production
and sales to increase and will help operational efficiency in the
coming years.
In the current year to March 2012 we are therefore hoping that
SRG's performance is expected to be significantly better than the
results for the year to March 2011.
Conclusion
The SRG results to March 2011 were disappointing but new coal
contracts appear to have largely redressed the position in the
current year. If there is a sale of SRG, we would hope to realise
significantly more than the value at which we are carrying it in
the books.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1. Accounting policies
A summary of the principal accounting policies, all of which
have been applied consistently throughout the year and the
preceding year, are as follows:
Basis of accounting:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006.
Going concern
The board of directors are satisfied that the company has
adequate reserves and availability of funding in order for the
company to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the company
continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these
financial statements.
Turnover:
Turnover represented amounts receivable for goods and services
provided in the normal course of business, net of trade discounts
and VAT.
Income and expenses from investments:
Income from securities is credited to the profit and loss
account when the securities are listed ex-dividend. Interest
receivable, interest payable and other expenses of management are
dealt with on an accruals basis.
Foreign currency transactions:
Overseas income is converted to sterling at the rates of
exchange ruling on the date of the transaction.
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the
balance sheet date. Any resulting exchange gain or loss is dealt
with in profit and loss.
Unrealised appreciation reserve:
The unrealised appreciation reserve represents the difference
between the book cost and the market value of fixed asset
investments held at the balance sheet date. This reserve is
non-distributable.
Realised gains and losses on investment transactions:
Gains and losses on realisation of fixed asset investments and
realised exchange differences thereon are transferred from the
unrealised appreciation reserve to the capital reserve at the time
of the realisation of the investment. The capital reserve is a
distributable reserve.
Taxation:
The charge for taxation is based on the profit or loss for the
year and takes into account deferred taxation arising on short term
timing differences between the treatment of certain income for
taxation and accounting purposes.
Deferred taxation
is provided for at anticipated tax rates on differences arising
from the inclusion of items of income and expenditure in taxation
computations in periods that differ from those in which they are
included in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recorded only where it is expected that an asset or
liability will crystallise in the foreseeable future.
Investments:
Fixed Assets: Listed investments are stated at values based on
market prices at the balance sheet date.
Unlisted investments are valued by the directors on an earnings
multiple basis, after considering underlying earnings, based on all
of the information available to the directors. The directors also
consider other, non-earnings based information available which may
affect the valuation.
Significant judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty
In applying the company's accounting policies, which are
described above, the directors are required to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and
liabilities at the reporting date and the amounts of turnover and
costs incurred during the year. Actual results may differ from
these estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions are:
Unlisted investments
The company's policy for valuation of unlisted investments is
set out above.
The directors consider that the earnings basis of valuation is
most appropriate for the type of mature company in which it holds
investments. Where a company's earnings fluctuate due to the market
factors such as commodity prices, it is considered appropriate to
make an assessment of past and expected future average earnings in
determining the valuation of the shares held.
In assessing underlying earnings the directors consider
information including historic financial statements, available
budgets and projections, past performance compared to original
forecasts and market information such as movements in commodity
prices.
The earnings multiple used is determined by consideration of the
multiples for listed companies operating in a similar sector,
adjusted to reflect the unlisted status of the investment.
The directors also consider other non-earnings based information
available about the company's investments and use this information
to validate the earnings based valuation. This includes property
values and coal reserves.

these directors were provided by the businesses concerned.
No directors had accrued entitlements under defined benefit
schemes.
The directors have ceased taking fees from 1 January 2011 in
order to protect the company's cash position. The remuneration of
the directors will be reconsidered when the cash position is
improved by a sale of the company's main asset or in other
ways.
Directors' share options
No director holds options to acquire shares in the company.
6. Taxation on (loss) on ordinary activities
No taxation charge arises as a result of the tax losses incurred
and brought forward (2010 - nil). As at 30 June 2011 the company
has trading losses to carry forward of approximately GBP3.3m and
capital losses to carry forward of approximately GBP17m.
The difference between this nil charge and that which would
arise from applying the relevant standard rate of corporation tax
in the UK of 28% to the loss on ordinary activities before tax is
as follows:
2011 2010
GBP GBP
-------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
(Loss) on ordinary activities before
tax (115,245) (167,458)
-------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
Standard rate of UK corporate tax at
28% 32,269 46,888
-------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
Adjustments - (losses) for which no
relief currently available (32,269) (46,888)
-------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
Tax charge for the year - -
-------------------------------------- ---------- ----------
No deferred tax asset has been recognised in relation to the
capital losses of GBP17m carried forward at 30 June 2011 as the
directors do not consider that there is any certainty that capital
gains will be achieved which can be relieved against these
losses.
No tax would be payable if the unlisted investment was sold at
the carrying value in the Balance Sheet at 30 June 2011 due to the
availability of the capital losses as detailed above. The taxable
gain that would be relieved is approximately GBP9m. The company has
no other fixed asset investments. On this basis, neither a deferred
tax asset nor liability has been provided in the financial
statements.
No deferred tax asset has been recognised in the financial
statements on the trading losses of GBP3.3m carried forward at 30
June 2011 as the directors do not expect the company to make any
trading profits in future accounting periods. The company will
continue to incur management expenses until such time as it can
realise its sole investment, in Scottish Resources Group
Limited.

at GBP96m, represents a fair assessment. This maintains the value
of our holding at GBP15.45m and our net assets therefore come out
at GBP15.5m (9.9p per Palmaris share).
