Unquoted investments included in non-current available-for-sale investments have a carrying amount of £5.9 million at 30th
September 2016 (30th September 2015 £8.4 million, 31st March 2016 £5.9 million). There is no active market for these
investments since they are investments in a company that is in the start up phase and in investment vehicles that invest in
start up companies and are categorised as level 3. The investment vehicles hold some investments in quoted companies and so
the fair value technique is based on the percentage ownership of the value of the underlying assets. 
 
Definition and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures 
 
for the six months ended 30th September 2016 
 
The group uses various measures to manage its business which are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). The group's management believes these measures provide valuable additional information to users of the half-yearly
accounts in understanding the group's performance. 
 
Sales excluding precious metals (sales) 
 
The group believes that sales excluding precious metals is a better measure of the growth of the group than revenue. Total
revenue can be heavily distorted by year on year fluctuations in the market prices of precious metals. In addition, in many
cases, the value of precious metals is passed directly on to our customers. 
 
Underlying profit and earnings 
 
These are the equivalent GAAP measures adjusted to exclude amortisation of acquired intangibles (note 5), major impairment
and restructuring charges, profit or loss on disposal of businesses, significant tax rate changes and, where relevant,
related tax effects. The group believes that these measures provide a better guide to the underlying performance of the
group. These are reconciled in note 4. 
 
Working capital days 
 
Non-precious metal related inventories, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables (including any classified
as held for sale) divided by sales excluding precious metals for the last three months multiplied by 90 days. 
 
Return on invested capital (ROIC) 
 
Annualised underlying operating profit divided by the monthly average of equity plus net debt for the same period.
