TEMBUSU INVESTMENTS LIMITED
('Tembusu' or the 'Company')
UNAUDITED HALF-YEARLY REPORT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2010
28 September 2010
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
As at 30 June 2010 the Company had cash balances of GBP1,027,193(31 December
2009: GBP1,096,141).
The Company has sought to guard its cash resources in difficult prevailing
economic climate, whilst continuing to evaluate potential investments and
transactions.
With the ongoing recovery in the economic cycle, we remain cautiously confident
that the opportunities available to, and prospects for, Tembusu can continue to
improve for the remainder of 2010 and into 2011.
Investing Policy
The Company's Investing Policy is to focus on identifying and acquiring quoted
and unquoted financial services businesses based in Asia, though other
geographical areas will be considered should appropriate opportunities occur
which could benefit the Company. By actively investing in businesses with
complementary areas of expertise, which may for example include real estate,
mortgage financing and other such activities, the Directors believe that it is
possible to generate considerable opportunities for the cross selling of
services between the different operations and countries. The Directors also
intend to continue to make minority investments in such financial services
businesses where it would be a passive investor but where those investments
provide the opportunity for enhancing the growth prospects of the Company.
In regard to the acquisitions that the Company expects to make, the Directors
may adopt earn-out structures, with specific performance targets being set for
the sellers of the businesses acquired, and with suitable metrics applied.
The Company may invest by way of outright acquisition or by the acquisition of
assets, including the intellectual property, of a relevant business,
partnerships or joint venture arrangements. Such investments may result in the
Company acquiring the whole or part of a company (which in the case of an
investment in a company may be private or listed on a stock exchange, and which
may be pre-revenue), and such investments may constitute a minority stake in the
company or project in question. The Company's investments may take the form of
equity, joint venture debt, convertible instruments, licence rights, or other
financial instruments as the Directors deem appropriate.
The Company will be both an active and a passive investor and the Directors will
place no minimum or maximum limit on the length of time that any investment may
be held.
There is no limit to the number of projects into which the Company may invest,
nor the proportion of the Company's gross assets that any investment may
represent at any time and the Company will consider possible opportunities
anywhere in the world.
There are no borrowing limits in the Articles of Association of the Company.
The Directors do not intend to acquire any cross-holdings in other corporate
entities that have an interest in the ordinary shares.
There are no restrictions in the type of investment that the Company might make
nor on the type of opportunity that may be considered other than set out in this
Investing Policy.
As the Company's ordinary shares are traded on AIM this provides a facility for
shareholders to realise their investment in the Company. In addition, the
Directors may consider from time to time other means of facilitating returns to
shareholders including dividends, share repurchases, demergers, schemes of
arrangement or liquidation.
