Chief Executive Officer's Statement

Overview

I am pleased to report on our third full year of activity as mirada plc. After a transitional period covering our first two years of restructuring, mirada has expanded as an international group with a significant increase of activities outside of our original markets, the UK and Spain. This has been possible through the implementation of our product-focused strategy and to the development of our international partnerships with leading players like Ericsson.

The Group has concentrated its activity on the core business, improving its margins and maximising the usage of our main areas of expertise. The growth of our Digital TV business, the main area of our product-focused strategy, not only during the previous financial year but also during the first months of the present fiscal year, demonstrates that we are following the right path.

The partnership agreement with Ericsson in which mirada's innovative Electronic Program Guide, Navi, is included in Ericsson's IPTV product catalogue, the development of our multiscreen product (iris), and the international expansion of our Broadcast synchronisation tool (xplayer) are now leading our sales activities, gaining new customers in the United States, Italy, Mexico, Chile and Brazil.

I want to thank again our employees, customers, shareholders and partners for their continued support in the evolution of our business.

Trading review

This year the Group's focus has been to concentrate on developing the core areas of the business which we believe have the greatest potential for growth, its Digital TV and Broadcast activities. We made a significant investment in improving our products to accommodate the needs of the market, and position the company on the cutting edge of our market sector. Towards the end of the year we started to commercialise our Digital TV products on a royalty-based model which will in the future lead to higher recurring revenues than our previous professional services based business. We have also made considerable effort to extend the reach of xplayer to markets beyond the UK where xplayer is the market leader.

Although overall revenues decreased during this period of focusing on the Digital TV and Broadcast businesses, gross margins increased to GBP4.0 million (77%) from GBP3.7 million (65%) in the prior year. I would like to stress how important our product-based strategy is to the future growth of the company. Management considers it essential to continue investing in this strategy as the improvement in the potential margins and recurrent nature of the royalty based revenues will generate an important increase in the value of the Group for our stakeholders.

The Group is also focusing on increasing its international activities (everything outside of the UK and Spain, the original markets) the revenues from these activities increased by 40% to GBP1.6 million compared to GBP1.1 million in the prior year. During the period under review the Company announced two strategically important contract wins, one in Mexico with the cable operator Cablecom who will be the first customer to use our iris technology in Latin America, which we believe will be the first of many agreements for this product in the region; and secondly a remote recording (iPhone based) tool for a large South American telecommunication operator. Both agreements are perfectly replicable, using our core IPR, the majority of these revenues will be recognised in the current year.

Additionally, in April and May, post period end, we announced two more deals, one with an important European satellite digital TV platform which is worth more than EUR0.8 million, and the other being our first significant sale of the Navi product through our IPTV partnership with Ericsson. We can now announce that this customer is GVT, a major telecommunications operator in Brazil, who launched its Digital TV service this month. Revenues earned through the Ericsson partnership include set-up fees and future royalty revenues based upon the number of subscribers using the Ericsson IPTV platform. Management expects that with the current deals in place, provided Ericsson's customers achieve their commercial expectations, it will represent revenues in excess of EUR4.0 million for mirada during the first four years of commercial activity. In addition to the Latin American expansion, the company started its activity in the United States, and we expect to announce our first relevant deals during the present period.

On 10 December 2010 we announced that Richard Alden, previously a Non-Executive Director of the Company, was appointed as Non-Executive Chairman. From 2000 to 2009 Richard was the Chief Executive Officer of Grupo Corporativo ONO S.A. ("ONO"), the largest alternative telecoms (broadband/telephone/digital TV) operator in Spain. He is a prominent industry figure with a proven track record and a number of international contacts that will be invaluable as the Group progresses with its international expansion.

Financial overview

During the period revenues were GBP5.1 million, down from GBP5.7 million in the previous year, however gross profit increased from GBP3.7 million to GBP4.0 million. Loss from continuing activities before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation was GBP1.0 million compared to GBP0.5 million in the previous year. This result was partly due to substantial resources being allocated to both improving existing products and the development of new products for the Digital TV business. Assistance with the funding of this valuable development was received by way of a Spanish Government backed development loan of EUR0.5 million which is repayable in six equal instalments from June 2014 to December 2016.

Loss from continuing activities before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation is a key performance indicator ("KPI") used by management and removes the impact of one-off and non-cash transactions (see note 4). Other KPIs used by management are as follows:

- Gross profit margin: The Group's continued move towards a product based strategy and its focus on the higher margin core activities has led to an increase in the gross profit margin from 65% in the year ended 31 March 2010 to 77% in the year under review.

- Overseas activities: Management believe that one of the major drivers for growth for the Group will come from its ability to increase its activities outside of mirada's traditional markets, being the UK and Spain. During the year revenues generated from these international customers increased by 40% to GBP1.6 million and and amounted to 31% of the Group's total revenues compared to 20% in the prior year.

Retained loss for the year equalled GBP7.1 million (GBP7.5 million), however this was after deducting a charge for the impairment of goodwill of GBP4.9 million (see note 13 for further details) and the loss from discontinued operations of GBP0.14 million (2010: GBP1.11 million).

During the year, despite the current economic climate the Group received additional bank financing of GBP1.0 million, it was able to do this by demonstrating a robust business plan with a strong pipeline of revenues and the ability to earn recurrent future revenues based upon its new licencing model. During the year the Group also raised a further GBP0.3 million by way of a placing, participants in this placing included directors who invested GBP0.05 million, and issued further convertible loan notes totalling GBP0.2 million. In addition mirada has also entered into negotiations to secure additional bank facilities to provide for the general working capital requirements of the group and to support its continued product investment. mirada is also pursuing other fund raising options, including development grants, should sufficient bank facilities not be raised (see note 2).

Operational Review

Areas of business

mirada is an audiovisual interaction technology company providing both interactive products and software development services. We trade in complementary areas around the media business, with some smaller independent activities in certain other markets:

Digital TV operators:

We have more than 10 years of experience in technologies from Interactive TV to advanced navigational services. We have a solid network of partners and we are internationally recognised for our skill base. Our products comprise user interfaces for content navigation and consumption over Digital TV receivers (TV and set-top boxes), Personal Computers (PCs) and Companion devices (tablets and smartphones). Our major products are Navi, integrated over the Ericsson IAP IPTV platform, and iris, our multiscreen proposition mainly addressed to the cable television markets.

Broadcasters:

Our focus is the distribution and support of our xplayer product, a successful synchronisation tool for Channels that allows them to link the live programming to interactive services, from EPG information to PVR reminders or second screen (PC, companion devices) applications.

Other areas:

mirada has experience and business activities in other areas: B2B Gaming, activities for which have reduced significantly post year end, Interactive Marketing and mirada connect which provides cashless payment solutions for the car parking market. Management believe, however, that the main areas of growth for the business will be in the Digital TV and Broadcast activities.

Outlook

The Group experienced its first successes in its extension into the product-based strategy during the period which has continued into the current year with contracted revenues in the Digital TV business already substantially higher than the previous year. Our international expansion is continuing, reducing the reliance on our traditional UK and Spanish markets. We have important distribution contracts for our core business, with an increasing portfolio of opportunities, and projects up and running that are generating a solid ground for our financial sustainability.

The management continued its policy of cost control and is committed to optimise further the efficiency of our activities. In addition to that, we have secured additional funding from bank facilities and investment from Directors and management which goes some way to prove the confidence that the team have in the future of the Company.

Our global agreement with Ericsson in the IPTV market is evolving very positively, with a first important reference in the Brazilian market and many more joint opportunities across the world. We foresee that the revenues generated from this line will exceed our initial expectations as we increase the number of customers using our Navi technology.

We believe that the Group now has the products in place to allow it to grow at a good pace, and we will continue updating the market as we consolidate the increasing number of opportunities ahead of us.

Notes to consolidated financial statements

1. General information

mirada plc is a company incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act 2006. The address of the registered office is Bentima House, 168-172 Old Street, London, EC1V 9BP.

The financial information set out in this document does not constitute the company's statutory accounts for 2010 or 2011. Statutory accounts for the years ended 31 March 2010 and 31 March 2011 have been reported on by the Independent Auditors. The Independent Auditors' Reports on the Report and Financial Statements for each of 2010 and 2011 were unqualified and did not contain a statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006. The Independent Auditors' Reports on the Report and Financial Statements for 2011 drew attention to an emphasis of matter due to the uncertainty over going concern.

The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2010 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2011 will be delivered to the Registrar in due course.

The financial information set out in these preliminary results has been prepared using the recognition and measurement principles of International Accounting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations adopted for use in the European Union (collectively Adopted IFRSs). The accounting policies adopted in these preliminary results have been consistently applied to all the years presented and are consistent with the policies used in the preparation of the statutory accounts for the period ended 31 March 2011. The principal accounting policies adopted are unchanged from those used in the preparation of the statutory accounts for the period ended 31 March 2010. New standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards, which have been adopted by the group have not been listed, since they have no material impact on the financial statements.

2. Significant accounting policies

Going concern

During the year ended 31 March 2011 the Group recorded a loss before interest, taxation, depreciation, impairment of goodwill, amortisation and discontinued operations of GBP1.01 million and a loss after taxation of GBP7.10 million. At 31 March 2011 the Group had total net assets of GBP4.08 million and net current liabilities of GBP1.79 million, and during the year ended 31 March 2011 had an operating cash outflow before movements in working capital of GBP1.59 million.

In assessing the going concern of the Group, the directors have prepared forecast information for the period ending twelve months from their approval of these financial statements. As part of producing these forecasts the directors have considered both the recent and expected contract wins and the likely cash inflows to be derived from the Group's forecasted trading activities. Given the nature of the Group's activities, there is a degree of uncertainty surrounding the timing and amount of such cash inflows. In addition Mirada plc has also entered into negotiations to secure additional bank facilities to provide for the general working capital requirements of the group and to support its continued product investment, it is also pursuing other fund raising options should sufficient bank facilities not be raised. Although the negotiations are at an advanced stage and the Directors are confident that sufficient funds will be raised, no binding agreements are in place at the date of approval of these financial statements On the basis of these forecasts and the underlying assumptions together with the anticipated additional financing, the directors believe that the Group will have sufficient funding to continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

The directors have concluded that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue to trade as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, given the current opportunities available to secure additional financing for the Group, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting.

3. Segmental reporting

The Company has 302,540 (2010: 315,167) potentially dilutive ordinary shares arising from share options issued to staff. The Company also has potentially dilutive ordinary shares arising from the convertible loan. These have not been included in calculating the diluted earnings per share as the effect is anti-dilutive.

The deferred shares are not included in the earnings per share or diluted earnings per share. These shares have no voting rights and are non-convertible and therefore do not form part of the ordinary share capital used for the loss per share calculation.

Basic and diluted loss per share from discontinued operations was GBP0.007 (2010: GBP0.06).

6. Share capital

At the General Meeting and Extraordinary General Meeting of mirada plc held on 12 January 2011 authority was received for the Company to undertake a capital reorganisation and capital cancellation.

Capital reorganisaton

The capital reorganisation had the effect of reducing the nominal value of the ordinary shares from GBP1.00 to 1 pence per ordinary share. In order to maintain the same number of fully participating ordinary shares after the capital reorganisation as there were before such reorganisation, each ordinary share was subdivided into one new ordinary share and ninety-nine B Deferred Shares.

Immediately before the capital cancellation there were 19,805,485 GBP1.00 ordinary shares in issue. Immediately after the capital cancellation there were 19,805,485 GBP0.01 ordinary shares and 1,960,743,015 GBP0.01 B Deferred shares.

Capital cancellation

The capital cancellation comprised the cancellation against the Company's profit and loss account of the existing 8,210,178,477 0.1p A Deferred Shares, 690,822,639 GBP0.01 Deferred Shares and the new 1,960,743,015 GBP0.01 B Deferred Shares created by the capital reorganisation. This capital reorganisation was completed on 2 March 2011, as confirmed by an Order of the High Courts of Justice.

A breakdown of the authorised and issued share capital in place as at 31 March 2011 is as follows:

In the Company's General Meeting held on 12 January 2011 a resolution was passed to amend the Articles to remove the statement of authorised share capital of the Company and any related references thereto within the Articles. The Companies Act 2006 abolishes the requirement for a company to have an authorised share capital and these amendments reflected this.

On 9 February 2011 the Company raised GBP300,000 via the issue of 1,500,000 GBP0.01 ordinary shares at a price of GBP0.20 each. Participants included in this issue included Richard Alden, the Non-Executive Chairman, and Francis Coles, a non-executive director, who both subscribed for 125,000 ordinary shares.
