Chairman's Statement
These results reflect the impact of the restructuring activities
undertaken by Pivot Entertainment Group plc since the year end.
This includes the completion of the refinancing of the AIB
facility, the sale of non-core business assets and the strategic
investment by Pivot Entertainment LLP. This represents significant
progress towards restoring the strength of the Group and our stated
goal of reshaping the Group into a highly-focused, transatlantic
media and entertainment company.
The restructuring and divestment activity included;
-- Sale of The Finishing Touch (Corporate Events) Ltd in
February 2011 to ExEvents Ltd, a subsidiary of Rivington Street
Holdings plc for cash considerations of GBP100,001. In addition,
ExEvents has agreed to pay 50% of net profits generated by existing
TFT customers over each of the next three years;
-- Sale of First Artist Sport Ltd to Jon and Phil Smith for an
initial cash consideration of GBP1 in May 2011. Additional
consideration is payable to the Group equal to the sum of 5 per
cent of revenue generated in excess of GBP3 million in the years
ended 30 November 2011 and 2012.
-- The departure of Jon and Phil Smith from the Board with
compromise agreements totalling GBP280,000 paid in cash;
-- The rationalisation and restructuring of the Group will be
complete with the winding up of the remaining operations of the
Sport division being Promosport SrL, the Italian based football
management agency.
The activities directed at restoring the financial and
management strength of the Group during this interim period
included;
-- Strategic investment in December 2010 by Pivot Entertainment
LLP of $4 million (GBP2.5 million) in the Group via a subscription
of 9,900,000 new ordinary shares at 11 pence per share representing
GBP1.1million and an unsecured loan for the remainder, being GBP1.4
million;
-- Appointments of David Stoller as Executive Chairman and
Jeremy Barbera as Chief Executive following investment by Pivot
Entertainment LLP. Shirley Stapleton was also appointed to the
Board as Finance Director;
-- Placing of 10,000,000 new ordinary shares at a price of 20
pence per share raising GBP2 million (before expenses) in February
2011, followed in March by a further placing of 8,700,000 new
ordinary shares at a price of 23 pence per share, which raised a
further GBP2 million (before expenses);
-- Conversion of Pivot Entertainment unsecured loan of
GBP1.4million (plus interest) into 7,401,615 ordinary shares at a
conversion price of 20 pence per share in March 2010;
-- Conclusion of a new GBP14.8million revolving credit facility
with Allied Irish Bank and a reduction in bank debt from the year
end value of GBP18.0 million through funds raised for the share
placing;
-- Appointment of Marcus Yeoman as Non-Executive Director in May
2011.
The results for the 6 months ended 31 May 2011 show the

*Adjusted EBITDA is stated before exceptional items.
Shareholders should note that in these results there is a
reclassification of continuing and discontinued operations compared
to last years' interim results as a consequence of the disposal
during the period of The Finishing Touch (Corporate Events) Ltd,
which was previously included in continuing operations.
The operating companies achieved solid revenue growth of 11.7%
to GBP39.4 million (6 months ending 31 May 2010: GBP35.2 million).
EBITDA for these operations grew to GBP1.50 million (6 months
ending 31 May 2010: GBP1.32 million), being a 13.6% increase, shown
below.
A strong performance of the theatre marketing business in the US
has driven the Group results in this period. EBITDA for
discontinued operations shows a reduction in loss of GBP2.16
million.

Following the disposal of the Events Management business,
continuing operations comprise the London and NY-based theatre
marketing business of Dewynters Ltd and Spot & Company of
Manhattan, together with London based signage and fascia display
business of Newman Displays Ltd and the NY-based merchandising
operations of Dewynters Advertising Inc.
The London theatre marketing business supported the opening of
three new musicals; Million Dollar Quartet, Wizard of Oz and Betty
Blue Eyes and the opening of Ghost the Musical in Manchester.
Looking forward, the book of business continues to be a mix of
existing long standing clients, new openings and a diversifying mix
of business.
The London signage and fascia display business continues to
support both cinematic and theatrical clients. High profile events
that they have worked on include the Cannes Film Festival, Thor,
Sucker Punch and Hangover Part II. However, the upgrading works
currently underway in Leicester Square have meant the relocation of
many film premieres to other smaller sites. This has impacted
somewhat on budgeted revenues and will continue to do so until the
work is complete in 2012.
New York operations achieved revenue growth during the period
based on exceptionally strong billings. The solid performance
reflects a leading position in large Broadway musicals opening
during the spring of 2011 including Catch Me If You Can, Book of
Mormon, Baby It's You, Bengal Tiger, Wonderland and promotions for
Cirque Du Soleil-Radio City.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations include Promosport SrL, First Artist
Management Ltd and First Rights Ltd as well as the disposals in the
period of The Finishing Touch (Corporate Events) Ltd and First
Artist Sport Ltd. Promosport was put into liquidation on 23 March
2011. First Artist Management has remained a dormant trading
company since the business assets were sold in 2010 and will be
dissolved in the second half of the year, along with First Rights
Ltd, which ceased trading in October 2010.
Summary and Outlook
The Board is pleased to have completed the restructuring of the
Group. We believe that these changes will significantly improve the
future financial performance of Pivot Entertainment and create
additional shareholder value. The focus of the Group is now to
drive internal growth through business expansion and further
integration between our London and New York operations, and
external growth through acquisitions that will enable us to enhance
our digital and media capabilities and expand our multi market
consumer-based platform.

Unaudited notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements
For the six months ended 31 May 2011
1 Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial
statements are for the six months ended 31 May 2011. They have been
prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles
of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by
the European Union. This report should be read in conjunction with
the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 November
2010, which have been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European
Union and International Financial Reporting Interpretations
Committee ('IFRIC') Interpretations and the Companies Act 2006, as
applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.
The financial information in this interim announcement does not
constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of
the Companies Act 2006. The unaudited interim financial statements
were approved by the Board on 10 August 2011.
The comparative financial information for the year ended 30
November 2010 does not constitute statutory accounts within the
meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory
accounts of Pivot Entertainment Group plc for the year ended 30
November 2010 have been reported on by the Company's auditor, Baker
Tilly UK Audit LLP and have been delivered to the Registrar of
Companies. The report of the auditor was unqualified but contained
an emphasis of matter statement with regard to going concern. The
auditor's report did not contain statements under Section 498(2) or
498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial information for the six months ended 31 May 2011
is unaudited.
Comparative Information
The Group comparatives have been drawn up to the 6 months ended
31 May 2010.
The comparative results for the 6 months ended 31 May 2010 and
the year ended 30 November 2010 show a reclassification of the
disposal groups as detailed in note 8 between continuing and
discontinuing operations.
Accounting Policies
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the
interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent
with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual
financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2010.
The allocation of provisions between current and non-current
liabilities has also been re-stated to reflect the correct payment
periods as detailed further in note 16 in the statutory accounts
for the year ended 30 November 2010.
Going Concern
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a going concern basis. Given the circumstances set
out below, there remain material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt upon the Group's ability to continue as a going
concern.
During the reporting period, the Group has undergone significant
restructuring, including renegotiation of its borrowing facilities,
fund raising and the disposal of loss making subsidiaries.
1 Basis of Preparation (continued)
The Directors have prepared and reviewed detailed forecasts
which indicate that the Group will have sufficient cash flow to
meet its financial obligations as they fall due and return the
Group to profitability. The exception to this is further
obligations under deferred consideration liabilities. After
settling consideration of US$4.1 million in January 2011, the next
stage payment of US$4.2 million is payable in October 2011. It is
envisaged that per the cash flow forecasts, additional funds will
need to be raised, either through equity or debt to settle this
liability.
After making enquiries and considering the uncertainties
described above, the Directors have concluded that the Group has
adequate resources to continuing trading for the foreseeable
future. For these reasons, they continue to adopt the going concern
basis of accounting in preparing the Group interim financial
statements.
