JOHN M. KENNAIR, MBE, Chairman said:
"We are pleased to announce a return to trading profitability in the first half
of 2010, following a year of unprecedented economic challenges in 2009. At the
2009 full year results we announced that we were introducing new photovoltaic
products and were beginning to see recovery in our PowerGlaz revenues. With
photovoltaic pricing more stabilised, six months into 2010 we continue to be
encouraged by a gradual pick up in PowerGlaz sales, coupled with a marked
increase in enquiries in this part of the business, spurred by the introduction
of the feed-in tariff in the UK.
Our architectural sales have continued to be impacted by the downturn in the
construction sector. The architectural business, and our other markets, have
also been disrupted by severe weather conditions at the start of 2010 which put
projects on hold.
The markets we operate in remain challenging but are showing signs of
improvement. For the company as a whole we maintain our view that 2010 will be a
year of steady recovery thanks to the cost cutting measures already implemented
and new products introduced by management. The second half of the year is
traditionally stronger and we anticipate this to be the case again in 2010. We
remain positive in our longer term outlook and are confident that the
introduction of the UK feed-in-tariff will bear fruit as the substantial
increase in enquiries for our photovoltaic products converts to sales."

Chairman's statement
_________________________________________________________________________
I am pleased to report on the results for the six months to 31 March 2010. The
directors anticipated that this year would be a year of recovery for the
business and group trading has returned to profitability following the
volatility that occurred last year in the group's markets.
Results
Sales in the six months to 31 March 2010 fell by 11% compared to the
corresponding period last year to GBP9.1m (2009 - GBP10.2m). Cost cutting
measures that were taken in 2009 have led to an improvement in gross margins
(even if the exceptional write down of inventories to net realisable value is
excluded from the 2009 figures - see note 2), and the group recorded a trading
profit of GBP0.3m for the period (2009 - loss GBP1.3m). Pre tax profits were
GBP0.1m (2009 - loss GBP1.6m before exceptional profit of GBP2.7m on disposal of
currency hedging contracts).
Trading
We have experienced more favourable conditions than last year in the markets for
our range of photovoltaic products, which are sold under the name PowerGlaz. In
particular, photovoltaic prices have been relatively stable during the period.
The architectural and specialist transport markets experienced a 38% fall in
turnover over the corresponding period last year and the architectural market
remains subdued.
The adverse weather conditions this winter over such a long period have caused
substantial delays in many of our major projects.
Cash, working capital and gearing
Over the six months, the group generated cash of GBP0.2m and reduced gearing to
55% compared with 57% at 30 September 2009.
Inventories remain higher than we would wish, but we expect these to reduce in
the second half of the year.
Dividends
The directors do not recommend payment of an interim dividend. They will review
the potential for proposing a final dividend when the results for the full year
are available.
Outlook
The introduction of a feed-in tariff (FIT) for the UK was announced in February
this year and came into effect on 1 April. The FIT makes investment in
renewable energy products attractive and has proved a significant boost to the
solar markets in other European countries where they have been in place for a
number of years.
Already, we have seen a very substantial increase in the number of enquiries in
the UK for all kinds of solar installations, including solar farms, industrial
buildings, supermarkets, housing projects and commercial properties.
The adverse weather conditions have also held back progress on the construction
of Romag's own FIT project, but this is now expected to be substantially
complete by the year end.
ROMAG HOLDINGS PLC
Chairman's statement (continued)
_________________________________________________________________________
Whilst the directors expect further improvement in the traditionally stronger
second half, the FIT will have only a small impact on trading in the current
financial year. However, the directors believe that the quality and diversity
of opportunities that the FIT is generating will produce a substantial increase
in sales and profitability in 2011 and beyond.

1. Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the group for the six
months ended 31 March 2010 consolidate the accounts of Romag Holdings plc and

policies set out in the group's 2009 annual report. The interim results are not
reviewed by the auditors, Ernst & Young LLP.
The adoption of International Accounting Standard 1 - 'Presentation of Financial
Statements (revised)' has required the 'Reconciliation of movements on reserves

recognised income and expense has been replaced with the 'Consolidated statement
of comprehensive income'.
