Singapore Time on 27 th August, 2013 have been posted to shareholders. Copies of the Annual Report and Accounts are available on the Company s website: Financial highlights: Revenue has grown by 24% in INR terms and 9% in USD terms Guarding services has grown by 20% in INR terms and 5% in USD terms Facilities Management services has grown by 36 % in INR terms and 20% in USD terms Profit before taxation of Group has grown by 29% in INR terms to 159 million ( : INR 123 million) and 12% in USD terms to 2.92 million ( : US$ 2.60 million) Profit after taxation of Group has grown by 36 % in INR terms to million ( : INR 78.6 million) and 18% in USD terms to 1.97 million ( : US$ 1.67 million) The Directors are pleased by the performance but, due to significant negative fluctuations of currency, the performance in reporting currency is modest compared to that reported under the functional currency Commenting on the results, Manjit Rajain, Executive Chairman of Mortice said: We have had another good year with success in achieving organic growth driven by new and expanded contracts. The economic environment remains challenging; and we have organized the business to focus on long-term Security and facilities management opportunities. We expect outsourcing opportunities will continue to grow, with a trend towards more clients seeking to access integrated services. We are positioned to build further on our long track record of sustained profitable growth. Chairman s Statement for Annual Report Overview Our Company is continuing its focus on growing its integrated facility management operations through increasing our number of large customers. The Company is also exploring possibilities of growing its electronic security segment. The Company s existing security business continues to perform very well whilst having tremendous potential for further growth. Results I am delighted to announce the financial results of the Group for the financial year Our performance during the year has been very good with strong revenue and profit growth, particularly in local currency terms and despite a moderation of macro economic growth in India. Our strategy of providing services that exceed client expectations [and those of our competitors] has helped us retain our key clients whilst winning new clients and contributed to the improved financial performance of the Group during the year. It is my pleasure to note that our revenue increased from US$61.09 million (INR 2, million) to US$ million (INR 3, million) compared to the previous financial year. This revenue growth equates to 24.0% in INR terms, and 9.2% in US dollars, a lower amount due to the strengthening of US dollars during the year.

2 Mortice Limited 2 Further, the Group has continued to be profitable with profit before taxation ( PBT ) increasing to US$2.93 million (INR million) (2012: US$2.61 million equivalent to INR million) representing an increase of 12.3% in US dollar terms and 29.1% in INR terms. Revenue at our security business has increased by 5.5% to US$46.43 million (INR 2, million) (2012: US$44.02 million equivalent to INR 2, million) although PBT decreased (in US dollar terms) to US$1.84 million (2012: US$1.90 million) but increased by 10% in INR terms from INR million to million. The main reason for the growth has been the winning of several significant new contracts during the year in manufacturing, real estate, commercial complexes, hospitality, telecoms and banking across India. Revenue at our facility management business has increased by 20.1% to US$20.13 million (INR 1, million) (2012: US$16.76 million equivalent to INR million) and PBT has increased by some 60% in US dollar terms and 82.2% in INR terms to US$1.20 million (INR million) (2012: US$0.75 million equivalent to INR35.81 million).the main reason behind this significant increase is due to winning several high margin contracts in the hospitality, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, banking and FMCG sectors across India. We are determined to continue our existing performance in this segment which will enhance our overall growth Our facility management business has historically been higher margin than our security business and our focus during the year of concentrating on more profitable contracts has positively contributed to PBT both in absolute terms and also from a margin perspective. Whilst we are confident our Group can continue to grow organically within its existing geographies, the Board is exploring the possibility of growth by acquisition as well as organic growth into new regions. Outlook The current economic condition of India continues to be good although statistical analysis indicates that growth will be more moderate than has been the case in more recent years. We therefore need to be cautiously ambitious and our ability to provide excellent services to our clients will enable Mortice to continue generating strong and improving financial results.
