Interregnum plc (www.interregnum.com), is an AIM-listed technology
merchant bank (symbol: ITR). Established in 1992, it provides advisory
services including corporate finance, IP exploitation and commercial due
diligence to corporates, government, technology entrepreneurs, advisors and
investors. In addition it invests in technology companies, focused primarily
on principal equity stakes although, in some cases taking minority equity
stakes.


Last month Liontrust Investment Services Limited increased its interest to 13.4% of the issued share capital. Director Ian Taylor topped up at 5.69 pence in December.


Recent Trading Update 27 Jan 05

Interregnum's consolidated revenues for the six months ended 31 December 2004
showed an increase of more than 370% to 3.3m (1H 2003-4: 0.7m). This reflects
increased revenues from the Interregnum advisory business and from its
subsidiary Yospace, together with the full consolidation of the revenues of
Cellular Design Services (CDS) which was acquired in February 2004.

Consolidated operating losses were reduced to 719,000 (1H 2003-4: loss of
799,000).

Operating cash flow for period improved to -614,000 (1H 2003-4: -928,000), and
the cash balance at 31 December 2004 was 1.915m (31 December 2003: 1.1m)

Highlights from the three primary components of Interregnum's business were as
follows:

Interregnum Advisory Business
Advisory revenues increased to 453,000 (1H2003-4: 290,000), but this does not
yet show the full impact of the 7 new people hired during the period. On 16
December Interregnum acted as a placing agent alongside Collins Stewart in the
5.6m placing announced by Screen plc (AIM: SEN/L).

Investment Portfolio
The investment portfolio continued to perform well. New investments into the
portfolio increased to 458,000 (1H 2003-4: 125,000). These included 250,000
in Future Route, a supplier of software which helps financial institutions
detect and prevent credit card fraud, and 150,000 in Oilcats, a provider of
Supply Chain Content Management software and services to the Energy sector.

There were no significant realisations from the investment portfolio (1H 2003-4:
181,000), and the portfolio (net of provisions) was valued at 3.051m (31
December 2003: 2.499m)

Subsidiary Companies

CDS completed its first full trading period since its acquisition by
Interregnum, generating revenues (for the six months to 31 December 2004) of
2.313m, net before tax profits of 86,000, and net positive cash flow of
173,000. CDS has focused on higher-margin, complex wireless infrastructure
work, leading to deeper business relationships with operators such as O2, 3,
T-Mobile, and BT, with equipment vendors such as Nokia, and with large property
owners such as BAA.

Ken Olisa, Interregnum Chairman and Chief Executive commented: "We are pleased
with the progress of all parts of our business. CDS and Yospace are now making
significant contributions to group revenues, and we expect AVM to continue this
trend. The investment portfolio generally is performing well, and we are
particularly pleased with the speed at which the new members of Interregnum's
advisory team have been integrated into the business; we expect them to make a
substantial contribution to both advisory revenues and deal flow during the
second half of FY2003-4 and beyond."

Full interim results for this period are planned to be released at the end of February 2005

Any thoughts welcome!



SP has took of since the start of this year...

Welcome! Topped up myself this am 0.94p.
If Red-m is valued at 20-25m and we have a nice 45% which is worth say just over 10m. ITR only paid around 1.5m for it just over a year ago, now thats good buisness! Great thing is the Red-m float looks great and there seems to be a lot of growth to come from them, which is going to directly benifit us.

Also this mornings rns seems like another good coup for the company, ITM appear to be in financial trouble and we've probably got some of their assets at a good price.

"This acquisition is expected to increase AVM's revenues by approximately 2 million over the next 12 months"

We currently hold 82.35% of avm's equity, which means we'll be seeing most of that!

Agree it looks great business. The existing cap is covered by the value of the float. Nor can they have paid much for the AVM assets. Cash is not particularly strong although they are generating it quite rapidly. Not sure how they could pick up cash from the Red-M flotation except by selling some of their own stake.

Eric

From UK-Analyst.com:

"Technology investor, Interregnum (up 0.625p to 9.125p) delighted the market with news of a revenue enhancing acquisition that looks set to add a further 2 million pounds in sales to its subsidiary, Audio Visual Machines. The company acquired, for an undisclosed sum, the assets, key staff and order book of a business that the group hopes will firm its position as a leading player in the supply of audio visual solutions to major corporates. Today's news followed hot on the heels from an upbeat statement towards the close of last week, in which the company revealed its wireless communications subsidiary had completed a merger and was planning to float on AIM in the next 2 months."

Surprising to see the relatively low key trading reaction. Never mind, gives chance for top-up at bargain basement prices.

Eric

Eric,

Prior estimates for Red-M valuation were 20-25m, just realised i didn't include the 10-15m of cash raised also! More like 40m.

http://www.red-m.com/News/#

Nice try, dawsinho! If flotation values Red-M at 40m then an extra one-third of shares, say, will have been issued and ITR's share will therefore drop to around 30%. Of course, ITR have key executive roles and will be able to llok after their investment; they must believe this is the best way of building value rather than taking the money and going away. From what I've seen, I like their style. Quite happy, really, to double my money by July!

Eric

I'll be happy with that :-)

Red-m group look set to start trading on the 9th of June, quicker then i thought. Should get some news flow soon.

Good spot daws. Not long to wait. Again not picked up by market.

Eric

Red - m float postponement!

Bit confused by this, Bridgewell, Red-M's financial adviser has advised to hold the float for the time being because of aim market conditions even though the floatation had been positively received by investors...
Sold some my holding this am, cos i think the market wont be pleased with this news.
At least we know that red-m's value is around the 20-25m mark, which is still great business.

INTERREGNUM PLC

Portfolio Company Announces Postponement of AIM Flotation

Interregnum plc ('Interregnum'), the technology merchant bank, announces today
that following a significant deterioration in the market conditions for new
issues on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) during recent weeks, its
portfolio company Red-M Group ('Red-M') has been advised to postpone its planned
admission to AIM by Bridgewell, Red-M's financial adviser. The admission had
been planned to take place during the first half of 2005.

Interregnum believes that Red-M remains very well placed to succeed in the
growing market for wireless security and management products and services. The
Red-M business proposition has been positively received by prospective investors
and the company had raised 1.6m of new debt and equity funding as part of the
preparation for its IPO. Red-M therefore intends now to seek a private equity
round of funding as the best way of addressing this market opportunity.

Interregnum owns approximately 45% of the issued share capital of Red-M prior to
further fund raising, with the other principal shareholders being funds managed
by Apax Partners, Amadeus Capital Partners and Red-M's management.

Very quiet on this share. anyone else share my enthusiasm for ITR? I fancy a large mark up on the next RNS, re floatation.
Alan

Alan,

Expect the sp to react more when the floatation actually goes ahead! Very little dialog regarding proposed future dates of the floation though. Market conditions seem to be improving so its sit on your hands time and wait it out... In the mean time i expect some deals to be struck from Interregnum's advisory business and maybe some news regarding Destiny usa.

Daws

Hope so Daws, as I have held this for some time and it is rapdily becoming leader in my most boring share competition!!!
Alan

Alan,

Don't mind if this becomes the most boring stock in history, just as long as the sp keeps heading north! lol
