CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT 
 
 
The interim results for the six months to 31 March 2009 reflect the impact that 
the global economic downturn has had on the Group's business. This is in line 
with many other small manufacturers and in our case was aggravated by the sharp 
fall in sales which began in the second quarter, a result of aggressive 
de-stocking by our major customer. 
 
 
The Group is reporting H1 2009 revenue of GBP888,000, a decrease of 30% compared 
with the same period last year (H1 2008 GBP1.26 million). Group gross profit was 
GBP362,000, a fall of 46% from GBP670,000 in H1 2008. Cost of sales decreased by 
a disproportionate 11% or GBP67,000 reflecting the relatively fixed production 
salaries which account for 59% of the cost of sales for H1 2009. The Group made 
an H1 2009 operating profit of GBP26,000, compared with a loss of GBP777,000 in 
H1 2008, after accounting for a credit on the exchange difference on the 
intercompany loan between Hardide plc and Hardide Coatings, Inc. Removing the 
effect of this charge would result in a similar operating result to H1 2008, but 
with much lower revenue. Similarly, the Group pre tax loss narrowed to GBP54,000 
compared to a loss before tax of GBP891,000 in the same period last year. 
 
 
During the course of the reporting period, the Board was required to make some 
difficult decisions to protect the future of the business. In March 2009, the 
manufacturing facility in Houston was hibernated and a redundancy programme was 
implemented in the UK. These decisions were not made lightly but were absolutely 
necessary to provide a more stable platform from which the business can grow as 
conditions improve. At the same time, the plan to reduce significantly the cost 
and expense base has resulted in H1 2009 savings of over GBP300,000 compared 
with the same period last year. This does not take into account savings to be 
made on the hibernation of the Houston plant and post-period steps to further 
reduce the cost of sales. 
 
 
It has however been a time of advancement as well as frustration. Crucially, the 
unique Hardide technology continues to win new and strategically significant 
customers and there has been no loss of sales due to product failure or 
under-performance. The coating is continually being proven as an enabling 
technology with the power to offer unprecedented commercial and technical value 
to customers. The opportunities for increasing penetration into existing 
markets, for converting the strong development pipeline and for exploiting the 
new titanium and diamond coating markets are high.  The Board is confident that 
Hardide remains a business with significant potential. 
 
 
All staff and members of the Board have made substantial contributions during 
this difficult period and I would like to thank them for that and for their 
loyalty and commitment.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REVIEW 
 
 
The last year has been one of extreme turbulence and uncertainty in the global 
economy, fuelling a downturn which has impacted businesses in most industrial 
sectors worldwide. The oil sector has been subject to extreme volatility which 
saw the oil price fluctuating by over US$100 per barrel during the year, falling 
to less than US$40 in December 2008. In the final part of the period to 31 March 
2009, the Group experienced the impact of this global situation as our key 
customers in the oil and gas, construction and automotive sectors dramatically 
reduced their production output and expressed uncertainty over their future 
demand for the Hardide technology. It should be noted that no customers have 
reduced orders due to dissatisfaction with the product. 
 
 
The Board took swift and decisive action in March 2009 to protect the future of 
the business as soon as the extent of the decrease in customer orders was 
identified. A Group cost reduction plan was implemented which saw the US 
manufacturing plant hibernated until sales are sufficient to re-start 
operations. The plant was safely shut down and production was seamlessly 
transferred to the UK. No customers were lost as a result of this move. 
 
 
In the UK, a redundancy programme unfortunately resulted in the loss of five 
positions.  It is extremely disappointing that this was necessary as the Group 
has been making notable progress in commercialising a coating for titanium, in 
testing for the coating of diamonds and diamond grit with customer partners, and 
in converting blue chip customers after more than 18 months of stringent 
testing. However, the re-structured organisation and a reduced and streamlined 
cost base means that the business is well placed for macro-economic recovery and 
the return to previous sales levels from existing customers. 
 
 
The rigorous application of cost reduction initiatives has enabled the Group to 
drive further operating and cost efficiencies by more than GBP300,000 or 24% 
when compared to H1 2008. Gross margin reduced to 41% from 53% in H1 2008 but 
variable-only margin remained at 76% compared with 77% in the same period last 
year. 
 
UK: Hardide Coatings Limited 
Hardide Coatings Limited, the UK operating company, was hit by the softening of 
the oil and gas market in particular. A combination of redundancies, robust cost 
controls, regular forecasting and a sharply reduced cost and expenses base 
offset the impact. 
 
 
In February 2009, the sales resource was enhanced with the appointment of Nick 
King as Business Development Manager. A senior and highly experienced business 
development professional, Nick joined from Praxair Surface Technologies Ltd. He 
brings more than 30 years experience of the surface treatment market and an 
extensive network of contacts. Nick is a strong addition to the management team 
and has already made a valuable contribution to our more focused product and 
market strategy. 
 
 
The Applications Development Committee led by Technical Director, Dr. Yuri Zhuk 
has been making good progress on a number of strategically and financially 
significant new applications. In March 2009, the Group was pleased to announce 
that it had successfully developed a process to enable the Hardide coating of 
titanium. This is a significant breakthrough for the coating of a 
high-performance metal commonly used in the aerospace, defence and motorsport 
industries. Furthermore, the Group has been making encouraging progress in the 
development of a new variant coating for diamond which is in test with three 
customer partners. Sampling is underway for a number of other pre-qualified and 
prioritised new general industrial and aerospace applications. 
 
 
Hardide's strategy is clear and recognises the importance of short-term cash 
generation. In order to turn the significant prospects for Hardide into 
performance, the Group is working with customer partners to develop priority 
markets and is accelerating applications that diversify its customer base and 
end-user markets. By leveraging the Group's unique technology to deliver 
unparalleled component performance and cost-benefits to customers, Hardide can 
fulfil a niche that is open to no other provider. 
 
 
Meanwhile, safety and environmental issues continue to receive high priority 
from the Board and management, and performance levels remain high and in-line 
with all statutory requirements. 
 
 
US: Hardide Coatings, Inc. 
It has previously been acknowledged that the sales cycle for the technology in 
the US was taking longer than expected. When compounded by the effects of the 
depressed economy, this situation meant that the Group could not sustain the 
operation of the Houston plant without jeopardising the prospects of the entire 
business. This led to the hibernation of the facility at the end of March 2009. 
All production was transferred to the UK site, and no customers were lost in the 
process. Dan Wilson, US-based Business Development Manager, was retained as an 
employee and together with the UK operations and engineering teams, he played a 
key role in the smooth transition of customers, samples and production parts. 
The intention is for the US plant to re-open when the UK reaches capacity and/or 
when US sales are sufficient to support the re-start of operations. 
 
 
The US continues to generate a healthy pipeline of qualified parts in test, and 
has secured two significant post-period conversions, including FMC Technologies, 
which have taken more than 18 months of engineering and testing to realise. 
 
 
Outlook 
In the three months since this reporting period, the Group has continued to 
experience difficult trading conditions and uncertainty from customers, 
culminating in a fundraising which is pending conclusion at the time of 
announcing these results. 
 
 
There is no doubting the severity of the global recession. We have faced and 
tackled complex challenges, but I believe that Hardide has the structure, 
strategy and people in place to re-establish an upward sales trend which will 
set the direction for sustainable growth in future shareholder value. I am 
confident in the recovery and growth of demand for Hardide's technology.

Production at the group's US operation in Houston ceased at the end of March 
2009. All plant and machinery is remaining in situ, as our current intention is 
that the plant will be reopened in due course. A full assessment of the impact 
of the hibernation on the carrying value of the fixed assets, and of the 
intercompany loan from Hardide plc, will be made in the full year audited 
accounts. As at the date of these financial statements, the value of US fixed 
assets in the group balance sheet was GBP661,000 and the value of the 
intercompany loan was GBP5,062,000.
