LIVEWAVE MEDIA PLC ("Livewave" or the "Company")
Preliminary Results for the six months to 31 December 2007
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
The six months to 31 December 2007 has been a period of positive development for Livewave.
The Company made its first acquisition in November 2007 when it bought the entire share capital of
Wavefinder Ltd, a publisher of quality information consumer books covering the ski and surfing
industries. Wavefinder is recognised as one of the leading brands in its area of business and is
expanding its exploitation of its intellectual properties into the internet and other media.
Turnover for the 6 months to 31 December 2007 was �30,504 (�nil) and the loss for the half year was
�38,015 (6 months to 31 December 2006: �71,421 loss) equivalent to 0.56 pence per share (1.27 pence
loss per share).
The Board's strategy is to grow the business in the area of action sports and live music events and we
currently are in advanced stages of negotiations with a view to acquiring a business in this area. The
Board believes that there are considerable growth prospects in this area and by combining the two
elements will attract a loyal and core following aimed at the 16-30 age range.
I look forward to reporting further progress in due course
Chris Akers
Chairman

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1. Accounting policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amount, event or actions,
actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates.
The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
Operating loss
Operating loss is stated after charging administrative costs, but before interest receivable and other
gains and losses.
Trade receivables
Trade and other receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair value, and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. A provision is established when there
is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due. The amount of any
provision is recognised in the income statement. The directors consider that the carrying amount of these
assets approximates to their fair value.
Cash and Cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, call deposits held with banks, and other short-term highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The directors consider that the
carrying amount of these assets approximates to their fair value.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised
cost, using the effective interest rate method. The directors consider that the carrying amount of these
liabilities approximates to their fair value.
Share Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new
shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds, net of tax.
2. Status of financial information
The interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2007 have not been audited or reviewed by the
Company's auditors and do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 240 Companies Act
1985. The figures for the twelve months to 30 June 2007 have been extracted from the audited annual
accounts.
