11. Acquisition Obligations
The terms of an acquisition may provide that the value of the purchase
consideration, which may be payable in cash or shares or other securities at a
future date, depends on uncertain future events such as the future performance
of the acquired company. The Directors estimate that the liability for
payments that may be due is as follows:

12. Contribution of Newly Acquired/Commenced Ventures to the Results of the
Group
Proof Communications Ltd, Splash Interactive Pte. Ltd, Speed Communications
Agency Ltd and Brandon Hill Communications Ltd were all acquired in the second
half of 2014. In addition, The Weather Print and Digital Communications Ltd
was acquired on 13 February 2015 and also in the first half of 2015 the Group
commenced pre-launch activities in connection with its new Sports Marketing
venture. These entities contributed turnover of £4.0m, operating income of
£3.3m and headline operating profit of £0.3m to the results of the Group for
the six month period ended 30 June 2015, although it is almost impossible to
establish exactly how much of this contribution arose from the entities in
their own standalone right and how much arose from new business activity and
referrals generated from other Group Agencies as part of our efforts to
optimise collaboration and concinnity.
