Finance lease liabilities are in respect of leased investment property. Many of
the leases provide for contingent rents in addition to the rents above which
are a proportion of rental income. Finance lease liabilities are effectively
secured as the rights to the leased asset revert to the lessor in event of
default.

The group leases out its investment properties under operating leases. The
future aggregate minimum rentals receivable under non-cancellable operating
leases are as follows:

Company Accounting Policies
for the year ended 31 December 2014

The following are the main accounting policies of the company:

Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention, as modified by the revaluation of investment properties, and in
accordance with applicable UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Dividends received

Dividends are credited to the profit and loss account when received.

Depreciation

Provision for depreciation on tangible fixed assets is made in equal annual
instalments to write each item off over its useful life. The rates generally
used are:

Motor vehicles 25 - 33 per cent
Office equipment 10 - 33 per cent

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies have been
translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. All
exchange differences are taken to the profit and loss account.

Investment properties

The investment property portfolio is included in the financial statements at
open market valuation. An external professional valuation is carried out
annually by professional external surveyors. Surpluses and deficits arising on
valuations are taken direct to the revaluation reserve. No depreciation or
amortisation is provided in respect of freehold and leasehold investment
properties. The directors consider that this accounting policy, which is not in
accordance with the Companies Act 2006, results in the accounts giving a true
and fair view. Depreciation or amortisation is only one of many factors
reflected in the valuation and the amount which might otherwise have been shown
cannot be separately identified or quantified.

On the 23rd of December 2014, the investment property portfolio was transferred
within the group to Bisichi (Properties) Limited, a 100% owned and controlled
subsidiary of the company.

Investments

Investments of the company are stated in the balance sheet as fixed assets at
cost less provisions for impairment.

Financial instruments

Bank loans and overdrafts

Bank loans and overdrafts are included in creditors on the company balance
sheet net of the unamortised cost of financing.

Interest payable on those facilities is expensed as a finance cost in the
period to which it relates.

Debtors

Amounts due from subsidiary undertakings are held at present value where the
interest that would be recognised from discounting future cash payments is
considered to be material. Other debtors do not carry interest and are stated
at their nominal value as reduced by appropriate allowances for estimated
recoverable amounts.

Creditors

Creditors are not interest bearing and are stated at their nominal value.

Joint ventures

Investments in joint ventures, being those entities over whose activities the
group has joint control as established by contractual agreement, are included
at cost, less impairment.

Deferred taxation

As required by FRS 19 "Deferred Tax", full provision is made for deferred tax
arising from all timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses
in the financial statements and recognition in the tax computation, except for
those timing differences in respect of which the standard specifies that
deferred tax should not be recognised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
calculated at the tax rates expected to be effective at the time the timing
differences are expected to reverse.

Leased assets and obligations

All leases are "Operating Leases" and the annual rentals are charged to the
profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term. Rent free
periods or other incentives received for entering into a lease are accounted
for over the period of the lease so as to spread the benefit received over the
lease term.

Pensions

The company makes contributions to a money purchase scheme and the costs are
charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Share based remuneration

The company operates a share option scheme. The fair value of the share option
scheme is determined at the date of grant. This fair value is then expensed on
a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on an estimate of the
number of shares that will eventually vest. The fair value of options granted
is calculated using a binomial model or Black-Scholes-Merton model. Details of
the share options in issue are disclosed in the Directors' Remuneration Report
on pages 29 and 30 under the heading Share option schemes which is within the
audited part of this report.

32. Dividends

The aggregate amount of dividends comprises:

                                                                    2014  2013
                                                                              
                                                                   £'000 £'000
                                                                              
Final dividends in respect of prior year but not recognised as       427   425
liabilities in that year:                                                     

The aggregate amount of dividends to be paid and not recognised as liabilities
as at year end is £427,000 (2013: £425,000).
