* prior year comparatives are not provided above since the Group was not formed until May 2009 when the Company acquired Frontier IP Limited by way of a reverse takeover.

Neil Crabb, Chairman, said:

"We have made encouraging progress during the past year, both with the launch of dedicated funds for our university partners and with the growth of our equity portfolio. Since the start of the new financial year, we have continued to build on this position, with the ongoing development of the pipeline of spin-outs with both university partners and the potential for other IP commercialisation funds.

The Group is also well placed to benefit from the opportunities to secure additional university partners. As research institutions across the UK seek to capitalise on their intellectual property, we are seeing growing demand for our services and we are in active discussions with a number of institutions. We remain very positive about growth prospects for the business."
