5. Reconciliation of adjusted profit/(loss) before tax
The adjusted profit/(loss) before tax is considered by the Board to more
accurately reflect the underlying operating performance of the business on a
go-forward basis and complements the statutory measure as reported in the
Consolidated Income Statement.
The reconciliation of profit/(loss) before tax to adjusted profit/(loss)
provided below includes items that are:
• non-recurring in nature, such as redundancy costs incurred from
time to time, acquisition costs and results of the Group's equity accounted
associate, which are not core to operations or future operating performance.
• non-cash moving items which arise from the accounting treatment of
share based payments and the amortisation of acquired intangibles which affect
neither future operating performance nor cash generation.
The above definition has been consistently applied historically and is the
measure by which the market generally judges PBT performance.

At 30 September 2017, the Group had an undiscounted deferred tax asset of
£422,000 (2016: £311,000). The asset comprises principally short term timing
differences and future tax relief available on the exercise of outstanding
employee share options in Oxford Metrics plc.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been measured at an effective rate of
17% and 38% in the UK and USA, respectively (2016: 17% and 38%,
respectively).
The inclusion of legislation to reduce the main rate of corporation tax from
20% to 19% from 1 April 2017 and then a further reduction to 17% from 1 April
2020 was substantively enacted on 15 September 2016.
The tax assessed for the year is higher than the standard rate of corporation
tax in the UK of 19.5% (2016: lower than the standard rate of 20%).
The differences are explained as follows:
2017 2016
£'000 £'000
Profit on ordinary activities before tax 1,528 2,373
Expected tax income based on the standard rate of 298 475
corporation tax in the UK of 19.5% (2016: 20%)

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss)
attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number
of ordinary shares in issue during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares (share options). For share options a calculation is
done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair
value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Company's
shares) based on the monetary value of the subscriptions rights and
outstanding share based payment charges attached to outstanding share options.
The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of
shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise price of the share
options.
