The judgements and estimates which have the most significant effect on the
amounts recognised in the Interim report and financial information are
consistent with those reported in the Annual Report and financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013.
3. Segmental reporting
The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Board. The Board
reviews the Group's internal reporting in order to assess performance and
allocate resources, and to date has divided the Group into three reportable
business segments based on the Group's management and internal reporting
structure. The Board assesses the performance of the segments based on
revenue, gross profit, EBITDA before exceptional items and operating (loss) /
profit. These are all measured on a basis consistent with that of the
consolidated income statement. Revenue charged between segments has been
charged at arm's length and eliminated from the Group financial statements.
Revenue from external customers in the segmental analysis is also measured in
a manner consistent with the income statement. This is split by hospital
rather than by patient. CircleReading and CircleBath are contained within the
"Circle Independent" sector, while revenue earned from the Nottingham NHS
Treatment Centre is categorised within "Circle NHS". Geographic factors are
not considered as all of the Group's operations take place within the United
Kingdom.

The Group has provided for the carrying costs on the current design
development costs which were historically spent on its Manchester site as it
re-evaluates the model appropriate for that market. This impairment to assets
under construction has resulted in an exceptional charge of £2.782 million in
the profit and loss account.

7 Loss per share
Basic loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. Diluted loss per ordinary share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume the conversion of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares. Share warrants in issue represent the only category of dilutive
ordinary shares for the Group.
The following table sets out the computation for basic and diluted net loss per share for the six months ended 30 June 2014 and 2013 and the year ending 31 December 2013:

Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share (pence) (3.8) (4.7) (5.1)
There is no difference in the weighted average number of ordinary shares used for basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share as the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares outstanding is anti-dilutive.

11. Events after the balance sheet date
Refinance of Health Properties (Bath) Limited
On 1 July Medical Properties Trust ("MPT"), the specialist hospital Real
Estate Investment Trust based in the US, completed the purchase of the Bath
Hospital asset for £28.3m. The asset was previously owned by Health
Properties (Bath) Limited, a joint venture of which the Group controlled
38.7%. This sale fully extinguished the loans held by Health Properties (Bath)
Limited with Santander and Lehmans as well as an interest rate swap held in
conjunction with the Santander loan. CircleBath have signed a 15 year lease
agreement with MPT, with a further 15 year extension, which will see their
rent reduce by £1.0m to £2.5m a year. As part of the repayment of the
mezzanine debt, Circle Holdings plc had to pay a final recourse guarantee to
Lehman Brothers of £625,000.
Release of £2,000,000 escrow amount
In July 2014, an amount of £2,000,000 was released from escrow in Circle
Hinchingbrooke Limited as a result of the Group meeting certain conditions
set out within the contract.
