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. 
 
Capital Management 
 
The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, cash, loans and equity.
The Group's objective when managing capital is to maintain the cash position
to protect the future on-going profitable growth which will reflect in
shareholder value. 
 
At 30 June 2016 the Group had a closing cash balance of £895,422 (2015:
£1,040,822) and an outstanding mortgage of £1,109,256 (2015: £1,137,484). 
 
21.       FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) 
 
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 2016 is £1,109,256 (2015: £1,137,484).
Interest is payable at 2.4% above the base rate (2015: at 2.4% above the base
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. 
 
A 1% increase in interest the interest rate payable would have a negative
impact the profit and loss account of £11,052. A 1% decrease in interest the
interest rate payable would have a positive impact the profit and loss account
of £11,052. 
 
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.

The prior year provision for onerous leases relates to the estimated cost of
warehouse leases that the Group would continue to bear once the archiving
relocated to the Restore units. 
 
As Restore occupied the premises for longer than anticipated, part of the
provision for onerous leases was released in the year. Restore have now fully
vacated all of the premises used by Ancora.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016 
 
1.   ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
Basis of preparation 
 
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with
applicable United Kingdom law and accounting standards (United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard
102, "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and
the Republic of Ireland" ("FRS102") and the Companies Act 2006. 
 
The directors have continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the
financial statements. 
 
Merger relief 
 
The Company is entitled to merger relief offered by the Companies Act, and the
shares issued when the subsidiary undertaking, IPPlus (UK) Limited, was
acquired are shown at their nominal value. 
 
Deferred taxation 
 
Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences where the transactions or
events that give the Company an obligation to pay more tax in the future, or a
right to pay less tax in future, have occurred by the year end. Deferred tax
assets are recognised when it is more likely than not that they will be
recovered. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis using rates of
tax that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end. 
 
Investments

Shares in subsidiary undertakings are included at original cost less any
amounts written off for permanent diminution in value. 
 
Land and buildings 
 
Land and buildings are stated at cost, net of depreciation and any provision
for impairment. 
 
Related Party Transactions 
 
The Company maintains Group intercompany balances with 100% owned
subsidiaries, and therefore has taken advantage of Section 33 of FRS102 which
states that transactions between a parent and its 100% owned subsidiaries do
not need to be disclosed. 
 
2.   PROFIT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 
 
The Company has taken advantage of section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and
has not included its own profit and loss account in these financial
statements.  The loss for the Company for the year was £70,050 (2015: Profit
£6,065). 
 
3.   PERSONNEL REMUNERATION 
 
The Company has no employees, therefore personnel remuneration was £nil (2015
£nil). All employee costs are borne by the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiaries. 
 
4.   INTEREST INCOME 
 
The Company received interest from bank deposits and balances with Group
Companies of £33,440 (2015 £2,115).

9.   DIVIDENDS 
 
The directors have proposed no final dividend of in respect of the year ended
30 June 2016 (2015: 0.15 pence per share). 
 
A special interim dividend of 3.16 pence per share declared on 07 November
2016 (2015: nil pence per share), and is expected to be paid on 9 December
2016. As this was proposed post year end no liability has been recognised in
