  clients include ongoing insurance entities and those in run-off. In 2008, it 
  generated profits after tax of GBP7 million and disclosed net assets of GBP20 
  million 
  *  The acquisition of PRO is in line with Tawa's strategy of building up a 
  portfolio of diversified run-off businesses 
 
The strong positive movement of financial markets and the enhanced liquidity of 
the Tawa Group's reinsurance carriers have enabled Tawa to significantly 
deleverage its balance sheet during the first half of the year by reducing 
goodwill and repaying bank debt within the balance sheet. The acquisition of PRO 
will strengthen the Group's revenues from recurring fees and improved stable 
cash flows. 
 
 
Gilles Erulin, Tawa plc Chief Executive, commented: "We look forward to 
welcoming the PRO team to the Tawa Group where their invaluable knowledge of the 
run-off market and global platform will be of considerable benefit in achieving 
our strategic goals. We are also pleased that Swiss Re has confirmed that PRO 
will enjoy preferred provider status for servicing its run-off operations. The 
deferred consideration element has been agreed between Swiss Re and Tawa to 
ensure we work hand in hand to increase the profitability and value of PRO over 
the coming years." 
 
 
Jonathan Isherwood, Member of Executive Board, Global Head of Claims and 
Liabilities, Swiss Re, commented: "PRO has been a small but successful part of 
Swiss Re since 1996. Today marks an important next step in PRO's development. We 
believe that the combination of skills and experience of PRO and Tawa Group will 
create the best opportunities for future growth of the business. On a personal 
note, we have enjoyed working with the Tawa team during this process and are 
confident that we can continue to partner together going forward."

Tawa plc is an investment vehicle formed in 2001 with the purpose of acquiring 
or developing assets and business in the run-off segment of the insurance

Interim results 
 
 
Highlights 
 
 
Tawa returns to profit and significantly strengthens its balance sheet with the 
repayment of $37.4 million of debt. 
 
 
During the first six months of 2009, Tawa returned to profit following the 
turbulence within the bond markets during 2008. Net profits for the period were 
$2.3 million up from $1.4 million in the six months to 30 June 2008. The Group 
also achieved a capital extraction of $40 million from its subsidiary, KX Re, of 
which $37.4 million was utilised to repay bank debt taken on at the time of KX 
Re's acquisition. 
 
 
The Group continues to develop further opportunities within the run-off market 
including acquisitions, market service initiatives and consultancy assignments. 
Recent sales of companies in run-off, which have been put out to tender, have 
indicated that prices are becoming more realistic. However, prices are still 
high and Tawa remains determined to maintain pricing discipline and will not 
jeopardise shareholder value by not adequately reflecting risks within its 
pricing of portfolios. 
 
 
Financial results 
 
 
Ongoing operations contributed $2.9 million to overall profits. During the 
interim period the Group reviewed goodwill held on the balance sheet and reduced 
it by $5 million. Overall, including the goodwill reduction, the continuing 
operations returned an accounting loss of $2.1 million. The profit on 
discontinued operations was $4.4 million, resulting in a Group net profit of 
$2.3 million. 
 
 
During the period Group net assets increased by $5.6 million, from $214.6 
million at 31 December 2008 to $220.2 million ($1.95/GBP1.18 per share) at 30 
June 2009. 
 
 
Dividend and dividend policy 
 
 
In line with the Group's dividend policy a final dividend for the year ended 31 
December 2008 of 0.8 cents (0.5 pence) per share was paid in July 2009. The 
Group does not propose the payment of a dividend relating to the interim period. 
 
 
Operational results 
 
 
The Group's operations are underwriting run-off, run-off management and other 
corporate activities. 
 
 
Underwriting run-off 
 
 
Underwriting run-off comprises the Group's insurance subsidiaries in run-off, 
namely KX Re and PXRE. The objective for the Group is to reduce insurance 
liabilities by accelerating the natural run-off of the portfolios to enable 
extraction of capital with regulatory consent. The underwriting run-off profit 
for the period was $5.7 million and the Group reduced net insurance liabilities 
by $22.1 million. A dividend of $40 million was paid on 25 June 2009 by KX Re 
which was utilised to repay bank borrowings of $37.4 million and to provide 
working capital for the Group. 
 
 
Run-off management 
 
 
Run-off management represents the results of the Group's providers of run-off 
management and consultancy services. The revenue comprises income from 
consultancy services, inspections performed, run-off fees and expenses 
recharged. Profit for the period was $1.4 million which was broadly in line with 
the business plan. 
 
 
Other corporate activities 
 
 
Other corporate activities summarises acquisition activity, the Group's 
investment in its associated undertaking CX Re, the change in the deferred 
consideration attributable to the sale of 87.35% of the shares of CX Re in March 
2006 and the costs of developing the Group's business. 
 
 
Through the Group's remaining investment in CX Re and the deferred 
consideration, which is dependent on the ultimate earn-out of the company, the 
Group's results are affected by changes in the net assets of CX Re. During the 
interim period CX Re net assets increased by $5.0 million to $52.3 million. The 
principal contributory factors were: 
 
 
  *  The significant rally within the bond markets and the strengthening of Sterling 
  since March 2008 has provided a benefit of $12.7 million to the balance sheet. 
  This performance has validated the company's investment strategy of retaining 
  investments with unrealised losses to enable the company to benefit from future 
  unwinding of losses, subject to regular review of the security of investments 
  and the overall risk profile of the portfolio. The investment managers have 
  taken the opportunity afforded by the improvement in the bond prices to reduce 
  the holdings of Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities ("CMBS") and to invest in 
  certain new issues of bonds of which several have the backing of the US 
  Treasury. The average credit rating of CX Re's investment portfolio remains AA+. 
 
 
 
  *  Net discounted claims reserves and provision for expenses reduced in the period 
  from $169.1 million to $158.9 million. There was a net incurred deterioration on 
  insurance risks of $3.6 million. In addition CX Re strengthened its ULAE (a 
  provision for future management costs) by $5 million. 
 
 
 
Future prospects 
 
 
The Group is well positioned to deliver its strategy of investing in the run-off 
market, whether acquiring run-off portfolios, as a service provider, or 
developing innovative products for the industry. Its short term key goal remains 
extraction of capital from the insurance carriers in which it has invested as 
well as creating further value for its shareholders by making considered, 
appropriately priced investments in run-off portfolios and developing innovative 
service products for the global insurance market.

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements For the period ended 30 
June 2009 
 
 
 
 
 
 
1General information 
 
 
Tawa plc (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together the "Group") are engaged 
in two principal business activities: 
 
 
  *  The acquisition and run-off of insurance companies that have ceased 
  underwriting; and 
  *  The provision of run-off management services to acquired insurance companies. 
 
The interim consolidated financial statements do not constitute statutory 
accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 and should be read 
in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year 
ended 31 December 2008. A copy of the statutory accounts for that year has been 
delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts 
was not qualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the 
auditors draw attention by way of emphasis without qualifying the report, and 
did not contain any statements under section 237(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 
1985. 
 
 
The Directors have considered the position of the Group's investments and assets 
compared to the technical provisions and other liabilities. In addition they 
have assessed the Group's liquidity with regard to expected future cash flows. 
They have also considered the performance of the business, as discussed in the 
interim results. On 25 March 2009 the Financial Services Authority confirmed 
that they had no objection to a $40 million capital reduction from subsidiary KX 
Reinsurance Company Limited. Part of the KX Reinsurance Company Limited initial 
capital distribution was utilised to repay in whole the outstanding acquisition 
debt of $37.4 million. The remainder was used to provide working capital at 
Group level. In light of these reviews the Directors have concluded that it is 
appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim report. 
 
 
The Directors confirm that the risks disclosed in the Company's consolidated 
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2008 are still relevant for 
the current period and the remaining period to the year end. A description of 
these risks is included in note 5 to the 31 December 2008 consolidated financial 
statements, namely; insurance risk, market risk (including interest rate risk), 
credit risk, liquidity risk, foreign currency risk and risk related to the 
Group's deferred assets. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2Significant accounting policies 
 
 
The annual financial statements of Tawa plc are prepared in accordance with IFRS 
as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements 
included in this interim report has been prepared in accordance with 
International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by 
the European Union. 
The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are 
followed in these condensed financial statements as were applied in the 
preparation of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 
31 December 2008. 
 
 
During the period ended 30 June 2009 the Group adopted the following significant 
standards and revisions to standards: 
  *  IFRS 8 (Revised) "Operating Segments" with effect from 1 January 2009. IFRS 8 
  requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports 
  about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Group Chief 
  Executive to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. In 
  contrast, the predecessor Standard (IAS 14 Segment Reporting) required the Group 
  to identify two sets of segments (business and geographical), using a risks and 
  rewards approach. 
  *  IAS 1 (Revised) "Presentation of financial statements" with effect from 1 
  January 2009. The revised standard aims to ensure comparability both with the 
  Group's financial statements of previous periods and with the financial 
  statements of other entities. The adoption of the revised standard has no effect 
  on the results reported in the consolidated financial statements. It does 
  however result in certain presentational changes in the Group's financial 
  statements, including: 
  *  the presentation of all items in the income statement in two financial 
  statements, a "Condensed consolidated income statement" and a "Condensed 
  consolidated statement of comprehensive income". 
  *  During the period the Group adopted some amendments to standards and 
  interpretations which had no significant effect on the consolidated financial 
  statements. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
3Segmental information 
 
 
Following the adoption of IFRS 8, the Group's reportable segments have not 
changed as the business segments reported to the Group Chief Executive follow 
clear lines with distinct risk and rewards which formed the basis under IAS 14. 
 
 
The Group's reportable segments under IFRS 8 are therefore identified as 
follows: 
  *  Underwriting run-off; 
  *  Run-off management services; and 
  *  Other corporate activities. 
 
 
 
The other corporate activities segment includes corporate expenses and other 
activities not related to the core business segments and which are not 
reportable segments due to their immateriality. Certain expenses and taxes are 
not allocated across the segments. 
 
 
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group's 
accounting policies. Segment profit represents the profit earned by each segment 
without allocation of central corporate expenses and tax expense. This is the 
measure reported to the Group Chief Executive for the purposes of resource 
allocation and assessment of segment performance. Amounts reported for the prior 
period have been restated to conform to the requirements of IFRS 8.

8    Goodwill 
 
 
As at 30 June 2009 the run-off management segment carried goodwill. For the 
purpose of testing goodwill for ­impairment, the Group compares the 
cash-generating unit's current carrying value of goodwill with the higher of its 
fair value less costs to sell or value in use. 
 
 
Current acquisition activity within the Group has been significantly below 
anticipated levels and the reduced likelihood of future acquisitions being 
completed has led to the recognition of impairment losses. 
 
 
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is its value in use. The 
current estimate of the cash-generating unit's value in use is $13.2 million 
using a discount rate of 10%. Compared to the current carrying value of the 
cash-generating unit's goodwill of $18.2 million an impairment loss of $5 
million has been recognised in the Group's interim report. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
9    Financial liabilities - borrowings 
 
 
The Group repaid and terminated a term and revolving loan of $37.4 million on 25 
June 2009.

liability. Consequently, the Group had no insurance related, or other, 
contingent liabilities as at 30 June 2009 (30 Jun 2008 and 31 Dec 2008: no 
contingent liabilities).
