Interim results for the six months ended 30th June 2011 
 
The significant increases in sales revenue achieved in recent years has 
continued in the first six months of 2011, with sales revenue up by 16% from GBP 
8.32m in 2010 to GBP9.66m in 2011. 
 
Profit before tax rose from GBP396,000 to GBP427,000, an increase of 7.8%. We 
believe this slower rate of growth stemmed from a relative fall in the gross 
margin in turn caused primarily by a large jump in commodity prices. 
 
The group was cash negative in the first six months as a result of increases in 
debtors and inventories supporting the increase in sales revenue. The group 
also continued to invest in capital machinery to improve the efficiency of the 
manufacturing business. 
 
Accordingly the directors have decided to maintain the interim dividend at the 
same level as paid in 2010. A dividend of 2.40p per share will be paid on 14th 
October 2011 to the Ordinary and `A' Ordinary shareholders on the register on 
30th September 2011. 
 
Performance of group companies 
 
4B division 
 
All the subsidiary companies within this division have continued to perform 
well ahead of both the same period last year and above budget, although margins 
have been eroded in some product lines due to the massive increase in the cost 
of materials. Inevitably in a fiercely competitive market, it has been 
difficult to gain full and immediate acceptance of these cost increases by 
customers. 
 
Pressings division 
 
We are seeing increasing demand from existing contracts and have secured sales 
for additional parts. However, in spite of the enormous efforts made by our 
staff, we have continued to experience frustrating delays in the launch of 
these critical new contracts. As a result of these costly delays, the 
manufacturing business continues to lose money. 
 
Outlook 
 
The group as a whole has made a positive start in the first half of 2011, 
although the world wide explosion in commodity prices has had a negative effect 
on our margins and is creating instability and a general lack of confidence 
among our customers. 
 
Up to this point in time, we have been fortunate in that the bulk of the 
group's sales are to the commercial agro market world wide and the strength of 
this sector has sheltered us from the recession. However, we are now seeing the 
first signs of a fall off in demand, even within this sector, caused by the 
growing economic uncertainty and the increasing difficulty in securing finance 
for projects. 
 
In these circumstances, it is important that we improve our stock management 
within the 4B division and that we eliminate the losses in the manufacturing 
division by finally bringing the new contracts on stream.

Notes to the interim financial report 
 
1. Accounting policies 
 
Basis of preparation 
 
The interim financial report has been prepared using accounting policies that 
are consistent with those used in the preparation of the full financial 
statements to 31st December 2010 and those which management expects to apply in 
the group's full financial statements to 31st December 2011. 
 
This interim financial report is unaudited. The comparative financial 
information set out in this interim financial report does not constitute the 
group's statutory accounts for the period ended 31st December 2010 but is 
derived from the accounts. Statutory accounts for the period ended 31st 
December 2010 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors 
have reported on those accounts. Their audit report was unqualified and did not 
contain any statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. 
 
The group's condensed interim financial information has been prepared in 
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (`IFRS') as adopted 
for the use in the European Union and in accordance with IAS 34 `Interim 
Financial Reporting' and the accounting policies included in the Annual Report 
for the year ended 31st December 2010, which have been applied consistently 
throughout the current and preceding periods. 
 
2. Earnings per share and dividends 
 
Both the basic and diluted earnings per share have been calculated using the 
net results attributable to shareholders of T.F. & J.H. Braime (Holdings) 
P.L.C. as the numerator. 
 
The weighted average number of outstanding shares used for basic earnings per 
share amounted to 1,440,000 (2010 - 1,440,000). There are no potentially 
dilutive shares in issue. 
 
                                                                          2011
