NOTES TO THE FULL YEAR RESULTS
1. Basis of preparation
In accordance with Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006, the Group confirms
that the financial information for the years ended 30 September 2016 and 2015
are derived from the Group's audited financial statements and that these are
not statutory accounts and, as such, do not contain all information required
to be disclosed in the financial statements prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The statutory accounts
for the year ended 30 September 2015 have been delivered to the Registrar of
Companies. The statutory accounts for the year ended 30 September 2016 have
been audited and approved, but have not yet been filed.
The Group's audited financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2016
received an unqualified audit opinion and the auditor's report contained no
statement under section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial information contained within this preliminary statement was
approved and authorised for issue by the Board on 28 November 2016.
2. Accounting policies
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies set out in the full financial statements for the year
ending 30 September 2015.
There were no new standards and amendments to standards which are mandatory
and relevant to the Group for the first time for the financial year ending 30
September 2016 which had a material effect on this preliminary statement.
3. Accounting estimates
The preparation of the preliminary statement requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of
accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income
and expenses. In preparing this preliminary statement, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and
the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to
the audited consolidated financial statements as at, and for the year ended,
30 September 2015.
4. Going concern
As at the date of this report, the Directors have a reasonable expectation
that the Group has adequate resources to continue in business for the
foreseeable future. During the year all the Group's expiring banking
facilities have been renewed on existing or improved terms. Accordingly, this
preliminary statement has been prepared on the going concern basis.
5. Risks and uncertainties
The operation of a public company involves a series of risks and uncertainties
across a range of strategic, commercial, operational and financial areas. The
principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material impact on the
Group's performance over the next twelve months (for example, causing actual
results to differ materially from expected results or from those experienced
previously) are the same in all material respects as those detailed on pages
23-26 of the 2015 Annual Report and Financial Statements.
6. Segmental information
Business segments
IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal
financial information reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Group's CODM has been identified as the Board of Directors who are
primarily responsible for the allocation of resources to the segments and for
assessing their performance. The disclosure in the Group accounts of
segmental information is consistent with the information used by the CODM in
order to assess profit performance from the Group's operations.
The Group operates one global business segment engaging in the manufacture and
supply of ingredient solutions for the flavour, fragrance and FMCG markets
with manufacturing sites in the UK, US and Kenya. Many of the Group's
activities, including sales, manufacturing, technical, IT and finance, are
managed globally on a Group basis.
Geographical segments
The following table provides an analysis of the Group's revenue by
geographical market:

rental income of £17,000 (2015: £17,000). No country included within 'Other'
contributes more than 5% of the Group's total revenue. There were no
customers which represented more than 10% of Group revenue (2015: largest
customer represented 12.1% of Group revenue).

as follows:

not rank for dividend.

Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary
shares in issue and ranking for dividend during the year, adjusted for the
effect of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The number of shares used
to calculate earnings per share (EPS) have been derived as follows:
2016 2015

not been included as a deduction from equity at 30 September 2016. The
dividend was paid on 14 October 2015 to those shareholders on the register at
9 September 2016. The proposed final dividend for the year ended 30 September
2016 of 3.00 pence will be voted on at the Annual General Meeting on 27
