The Group owns 167,229 (2014: 167,229) shares and these are held as Treasury Shares. This value is deducted in the
Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and is reflected in the weighted average number of shares in issue during the
period (Note 10). 
 
During the year, the share price fluctuated between 20 pence and 14 pence and closed at 15 pence on 30 June 2015. 
 
Contingent rights to the allotment of shares 
 
The Group has granted the following share options, in respect of ordinary shares of 1p each, which were still valid and
unexercised at 30 June 2015.

 4 November 2013  600,000           1.00p          See below           
 
 
These options were granted at an exercise price of 1 pence each on 4 November 2013. The options are conditional on certain
vesting criteria including an annual Group Profit before Tax target for the year ended 30 June 2016. 
 
The weighted average fair value of the November 2013 LTIP granted during the period, determined using the Black-Scholes
valuation model, was 14.12 pence per option. The significant inputs into the model were mid-market share price of 28 pence
at the grant date; exercise price shown above; an expected 10 year time to expiry; an annual risk- free interest rate of
0.5%; dividend yield of nil; volatility of share price of nil. 
 
No share options are currently exercisable. The Weighted Average Exercise Price of share options outstanding at 30 June
2015 was 1p, with a weighted average life of 12 months and at 30 June 2014 was 3.6p, with a weighted average life of 17
months. 
 
No share option charge has been recognised during the year because management are of the opinion that the performance
conditions will not be met.

21.     FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 
 
The Group uses various financial instruments including cash, trade receivables, trade payables, other payables, loans and
leasing that arise directly from its operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to maintain adequate
finance for the Group's operations. The existence of these financial instruments exposes the Group to a number of financial
risks, which are described in detail below. The directors do not consider price risk to be a significant risk. The
directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks, as summarised below, and these remain unchanged from
previous years. 
 
Financial risk management and objectives 
 
The Group seeks to manage financial risk to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to
invest cash assets safely and profitably. The directors achieve this by regularly preparing and reviewing forecasts based
on the trends shown in the monthly management accounts. 
 
Interest rate risk 
 
The total loan balance at 30 June 2015 is £1,137,484 (2014: £1,160,455). Interest is payable at 2.4% above the base (2014:
at 2.55% above the three month LIBOR rate) (note 17). 
 
The Group finances its operations through a mixture of cash and loans and has some risk to interest rate movements which
are not deemed significant in the short term. 
 
Credit risk 
 
The Group's principal financial assets are cash and trade receivables, with the principal credit risk arising from trade
receivables. In order to manage credit risks the Group conducts third party credit reviews on all new clients, takes
deposits where this is deemed necessary and collects payment by direct debit on all new Ansaback and Ancora accounts,
limiting the exposure to a build up of a large outstanding debt. The Group also conducts third party credit reviews on
CallScripter accounts, which also have an agreed payment plan tailored to the risk of the individual client. 
 
Liquidity risk 
 
The Group aims to mitigate liquidity risk by closely monitoring cash generation and expenditure. Cash is monitored daily
and forecasts are regularly prepared to ensure that the movements are in line with the directors' strategy.

Foreign currencies 
 
During the year exchange gains of £829 (2014: charge of £22,403) have arisen and at the year-end £1,679 (2014: £nil) was
held in foreign currency bank accounts. It is the Group's policy to hold limited amounts in foreign currency in order to
reduce exposure to currency risk. The Group does not sell or buy any currency forward or enter into any hedging contracts. 
 
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction and monetary
assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates ruling at the year end. At present foreign
exchange is minimal and hedging and risk management is not deemed necessary.

28.          DISPOSAL OF ANCORA SOLUTIONS DIVISION 
 
Ancora Solutions provided secure document removal, archiving, confidential data destruction and library move services to
the medical and scientific industries, as well as industrial and professional sectors. 
 
Prior to the disposal, Ancora Solutions was reorganised and removals were ceased with a consequent reduction in staff,
including the divisional Managing Director. This gave rise to a total reorganisation cost of £100,166. 
 
Subsequent to this reorganisation, on 31 December 2014 the Group disposed of the division to Restore PLC. Under the terms
of the Disposal, Restore PLC purchased the entire fixed assets, payroll and existing contracts of Ancora in return for a
cash consideration of £500,000. 
 
Revenues and expenses, gains and losses relating to the discontinuance of this division have been eliminated from the loss
from the Group's continuing operations and are shown as a single line item on the face of the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income. 
 
Operating losses until the date of disposal are summarised below: 
 
                                               2015£      2014£
