Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union, using
accounting policies which are consistent with those set out in the financial

New and amended standards adopted by the group
There are no IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that are effective for the first

3. Segmental Reporting
In the opinion of the directors, the group has one class of business, being
that of research and development. The group's primary reporting format is
determined by the geographical segment according to the location of its
establishments. There is currently only one geographic reporting segment,
which is the UK. All costs are derived from the single segment.
4. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable
shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding
during the period.
Reconciliations are set out below:

incurred the effect of outstanding share options and warrants is considered
anti-dilutive and is ignored for the purpose of the loss per share
calculation. As at 31 May 2017 there were 10,011,904 outstanding share options
and 1,572,310 outstanding share warrants.
