            Preliminary Results for the year ended 31 December 2007            

                             CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT                              

Parkwood's revenue grew to �108 million in 2007 and, significantly, the Group's
order book increased to �532 million. The year was characterised by
acquisitions in Glendale the `green services' division, the award of
considerable new business in the Leisure Division and the refinancing of senior
debt and investment of further subordinated debt in our PFI/PPP ventures by the
Projects division. No buyer was found for the loss making patient transport
business of Parkwood Healthcare and the resultant onerous contract provision of
�0.66 million has led to a slight reduction in profit before tax to �2.50
million for the Group.

Results

Group revenue increased by 14% to �108 million (2006: �95.0 million) and profit
before exceptional items, amortisation and goodwill impairment charges rose 13%
to �3.10 million (2006: �2.73 million). Underlying earnings per share increased
22% to 12.0p (2006: 9.8p). Profit before tax was slightly down at �2.50 million
(2006: �2.53 million). However earnings per share increased slightly to 8.9p
(2006: 8.8p) as a result of the Company's policy of buying back shares under
the powers conferred at the last AGM.

Parkwood Leisure, despite continuing losses in the private sector health and
fitness business, performed in line with expectations generating operating
profits of �2.4 million. Glendale, although badly affected by the poor weather
in the summer, produced operating profits of �1.9 million. Parkwood Project
Management (PPM) had its best year ever, returning an operating profit of �0.3
million on sales of �2.7 million. The Healthcare division's operating losses
increased to �0.6 million (2006: �0.5 million), before the onerous contract
provision.

During the year the Group invested a further �1.7 million in subordinated debt
in PFI/PPP Special Purpose Companies (SPCs) and bought the remaining equity and
subordinated debt in the SPC responsible for the MOD Defence Animal Centre at
Melton Mowbray. Subordinated debt investments now total �4.5 million. Capital
raised and committed to the construction of new PFI/PPP facilities increased to
�78 million. Excluding this non-recourse debt, gearing at the year end was 96%
(2006: 82%). Cash balances at the year end increased to �5.1 million (2006: �
3.6 million).

Dividends

The underlying strength of the Group allows the Board to increase the proposed
dividend payable by 16% to 2.2p (2007: 1.9p). Payment will be made on 16 May
2008 to all shareholders on the register on 18 April 2008. Total dividends paid
and charged in 2007 were 3.2p (2006: 2.6p).

Strategy and Order Book

Parkwood is working to a three-year strategic plan for the years 2007-2009 and
revenues are already running ahead of the targets set. The challenge is to
increase margins to the target set in the strategic business plan. Banking
facilities are secured for 2008 and funds are in hand for over �8.0 million of
capital investment over the rest of the plan period.

The Board will reflect on its longer-term strategy in 2008 and consider its
options in what appear to be deteriorating macro-economic circumstances.

Parkwood's public sector order book increased by 29% to stand at �532 million
at the year end (2006: �412 million) and is calculated on the basis of revenue
arising in connection with existing contracts to a maximum ten-year horizon.
Including SPC revenue, �94 million of business is already secured for 2008.

Management and Board

I continue to serve as both Chairman and Chief Executive, although
consideration is being given to the appointment of a Chief Operating Officer
during the year. Brian May, a non executive director, resigned in September and
I express my thanks to him for his advice and support during his time with
Parkwood. A new non executive director will be recruited later in 2008. Terry
Bowman, who acted as Group Finance Director in an interim capacity in early
2007, was appointed to the Board in April. Sarah Kling and Richard Tolkien,
both reappointed during the year, are the two remaining non executive
directors; Sarah being the senior independent non executive director. Andrew
Holt continues as an executive director of the Group as well acting as the
Managing Director of Parkwood Leisure.

Staff

With staff costs amounting to 60% of Group revenues, a full review of human
capital within Parkwood was completed in November when staff numbers had risen
to 5,500 and the full time equivalent number to 3,400. Most of the increase
took place in the Leisure division and, as a result, a separate dedicated human
resources department was established for this business to focus on the
challenges created by the large number of seasonal and part-time staff.

Parkwood is a community based service business and our employees deal with day
to day issues that concern everyone: running health and fitness clubs and
cr�ches, teaching people to swim, maintaining parks and gardens, taking people
to hospital and providing care services. We once again congratulate staff for
the part they play in providing these important services to the communities in
which they live and work.

Outlook

Parkwood has a strong order book and has won sufficient new business for 2008.
A period of consolidation and a focus on the strategic objective of improving
net margins is now required, whilst the Group determines its strategy for the
years beyond 2009.

� Operating Profit before amortisation, goodwill impairment and exceptional
costs

The Trading Group saw adjusted operating profit increase by �0.42 million on
revenues which rose �9.5 million. As a result, operating margins increased
slightly to 3.5% (2006: 3.4%). This improvement in performance came about
through the good results achieved by Leisure and PPM offsetting the increased
loss within the Healthcare Division.

The SPC Group saw a significant improvement in performance at the operating
level as the Breckland contract reached full operational state and Realm
Services (DAC) (Realm) became a wholly-owned subsidiary having previously been
accounted for as an associate.

Total Group adjusted operating margin increased to 3.9% (2006: 2.6%).

Finance Costs

Net finance costs increased to �1.13 million compared to net income of �0.28
million in 2006. This was due primarily to the increase in the non-recourse PFI
/PPP interest charge in the SPC Group, which rose to �0.94 million (2006: �0.20
million income) as a result of the expensing of interest at Breckland, which
became fully operational in the year; interest having been capitalised during
the construction period.

The Trading Group incurred finance costs of �0.19 million (2006: �0.09 million
income) as a result of the expensing of interest relating to the Parkwood
Health and Fitness club at Salisbury after a six month fit-out period in 2006
and the debt service costs of the acquisition of IMDAC Limited (the parent
company of Realm).

Interest cover on recourse borrowings was 24 times, whilst non-recourse SPC
borrowings cover was below one. This latter figure is in line with the
financial models of the individual SPC's. Overall, the Group's interest cover
was 3.8 times.

Exceptional Items

The Group recorded a net exceptional charge of �0.36 million. This comprises
the provision for future losses on a patient transport contract within the
Healthcare division (�0.66 million) and a benefit related to the refinancing of
the Boxwood PFI Project (�0.30 million).

Taxation

The Group's tax charge reduced to 32.9% (2006: 34.2%).

The Group does not expect to pay any corporation tax in respect of 2007
profits, the charge relates to deferred tax liabilities.

Funding and Gearing

To illustrate the impact of PFI/PPP ventures on the Group's balance sheet, the
following table, taken from information within the financial statements,
analyses assets and liabilities between the Trading Group and the non-recourse
SPC Group.

The Group is not liable for any debt which an SPC may be unable to service as
the senior debt providers secure their investment by way of charge over the
tangible assets of the SPC and its contract with the ultimate client. As such
the debt is referred to as non-recourse in the Report and Accounts.

The increase in overall net debt of �17.55 million, after taking into account
of capital repayments of �0.65 million, principally comprised:

  * further expenditure on PFI/PPP capital projects totalling �7.40 million;
  * the recognition of �8.90 million of debt in Realm Services (DAC), which
    having previously been accounted for as an associate, became a wholly-owned
    subsidiary of the Group as a result of the acquisition of the majority
    shareholder;
  * �2.40 million of debt funding for the purchase of IMDAC Limited;
  * �0.70 million of other recourse borrowing relating to capital expenditure,
    and
  * increased cash balances of �1.47 million.
   
Within the overall increase, the level of recourse debt rose by �2.85 million
and non-recourse debt by �14.70 million.

Notes

1. Results and Accounting Policies

While the financial information included in this preliminary announcement has
been computed in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
("IFRS"), this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to
comply with IFRS. The Group expects to publish full financial statements which
comply with IFRS on or before 4 April 2008. The accounting policies used in
preparation of this preliminary announcement have remained unchanged from those
set out in the Group's 2006 annual report and financial statements and are
consistent with those in the full financial statements which have yet to be
published. The preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2007 were
approved by the board of directors on 10 March 2008.

The financial information set out above does not constitute the Group's
statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2007 or 2006 as detailed in
section 240 of the Companies Act 1985, but is derived from those accounts.
Statutory accounts for 2006 under IFRS have been delivered to the Registrar of
Companies and those for the year ended 31 December 2007, under IFRS, will be
delivered to the Registrar of Companies following the Company's annual general
meeting. The auditors have reported on these accounts; their report was
unqualified and did not contain a statement under s237(2) or (3) of the
Companies Act 1985.

3. Taxation

The effective tax rate for the year was reduced to 32.9% (2006: 34.2%). The
current year charge was higher than the basic UK rate due to impact of goodwill
impairment and intangible asset amortisation and expenses not allowable for
taxation.
