Subsequent to the year end it has been recommended that a final dividend of

financial year of 12.60p net per ordinary share (2016: 12.00p).

Basic earnings per 25p ordinary share from continuing operations is calculated
by dividing profit for the year from continuing operations attributable to
ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in
issue during the year.
For diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, the weighted
average number of ordinary shares is adjusted to assume conversion of all
dilutive potential ordinary shares (share options and warrants) taking into
account their exercise price in comparison with the actual average share price
during the year.
Discontinued operations
Basic earnings per 25p ordinary share from discontinued operations is
calculated by dividing (loss)/profit for the year from discontinued operations
attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares in issue during the year.
For diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations, the weighted
average number of ordinary shares is adjusted to assume conversion of all
dilutive potential ordinary shares (share options and warrants) taking into
account their exercise price in comparison with the actual average share price
during the year.

16. EVENTS ARISING AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD
On 1 November 2017, Glasson Grain Limited acquired 100% of certain trade and
assets, which together comprise a mill and related processing facilities
located at Montrose. The business is intended to be run as a going concern.
The acquisition will enable Glasson Grain Limited to better service customers
throughout Scotland. The consideration was £550,000, which is represented by
£1 paid on 1 November 2017 and £549,999 payable by 1 November 2020. The
payment of the deferred consideration is contingent on the resolution of
certain conveyancing issues which management expect to be satisfactorily
resolved within the three year period.
The business combination accounting is in progress and will be completed
before the next reporting period.
Assets acquired:
£000
Property, plant and equipment 550
Consideration 550
The Directors consider it impractical to estimate the recent historical
financial performance of the acquired trade and assets, as the operation was
one element of a larger business recently initially acquired by Origin UK
Operations Limited, and which was subsequently required to be divested for
competition remedy purposes.
17. RESPONSIBILTY STATEMENT
The Directors below confirm to the best of their knowledge:
· the financial statements, prepared in accordance with the applicable
set of accounting standards, give a true and fair view of the assets,
liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Company and the

performance of the business and the position of the issuer and the
undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a
