The Group uses an Employee Benefit Trust (EBT) to purchase shares in the
Company to satisfy entitlements, granted since the Company's AGM in 2015,
under the Group's Long Term Incentive Plan and Save As You Earn schemes. 
During the year the Group purchased 20,000 ordinary shares (2015: nil) of 2
pence for a total consideration of £77,000 (2015: £nil).  The cost of the
shares held by the EBT is deducted from retained earnings.  The EBT is
financed by a repayable on demand loan from the Group of £77,000 (2015: £nil).
 As at 30 November 2016 the EBT held a total of 20,000 ordinary shares of 2
pence (2015: nil) at a cost of £77,000 (2015: £nil) and a market value of
£84,000 (2015: £nil). 
 
11.          Acquisition 
 
On 4 December 2015 the Group, through its subsidiary Porvair Filtration Group,
Inc., purchased the trade and assets of TEM Filter Company. The trade is the
manufacture of specialist filters and is based in the USA.  The total
consideration is $5,220,000 (£3,576,000); $4,350,000 (£2,880,000) was paid on
4 December 2015, with the balance being contingent and due for payment before
31 May 2017.  The contingent consideration is estimated based on the forecast
performance of the acquired business in its first year of ownership by the
Group.  At the time of acquisition this was expected to be $750,000
(£497,000).  Based on the actual performance of the division, this amount is
estimated to be $870,000 (£696,000).  The difference between the initial
assessment of contingent consideration and the revised estimate of $120,000
(£87,000) has been charged to the income statement in the year.  The maximum
contingent consideration is $1,200,000 (£960,000). The direct costs of
acquisition, which were charged to the income statement, were $58,000
(£38,000).  In the period since acquisition, the business has contributed
$3,691,000 (£2,678,000) of revenue and $916,000 (£665,000) of operating profit
to the Group results.

The goodwill attributable to the acquisition relates to the acquired customer
base and non-contractual relationships, the synergies between the business
acquired and the existing operations of the Group and the potential to develop
the acquired technologies, which do not meet the criteria for capitalisation
as intangible assets.  The goodwill recognised is attributable to the
Microfiltration division and is expected to be deductible for income tax
purposes.  The purchase is accounted for as an acquisition.
