This was from the results


Some serious cost cutting



Our focus on overheads necessarily included cutting our payroll bill. This led
to the redundancy of a key individual who has been with the company since
floatation. Geoff Russell left on 1st November 2006 because his role in the
business was severely curtailed by the disposal of the automotive division.
Geoff has not been replaced, since his role has ceased to exist. The Board
wishes Geoff well for the future.



Our review led to a number of further staff losses, some of which were effected
by redundancies and others by not replacing those leaving naturally. Overall,
we have cut staff costs on a month by month basis subsequent to the year end by
over 40%.



Other overheads were also subjected to our critical gaze. Establishment costs
have reduced dramatically because the disposal of the automotive division means
that the group no longer incurs the cost of the Acton offices and showrooms. We
now operate from a small office in Chesham, which is sufficient for our
circumstances at the current time, given that all new business presentations are
made at our clients' premises. This is, in any event, the norm for a buildings
focussed glass surfacing company, whereas an automotive glass surfacing business
needs a workshop type premises.



I am pleased to report that subsequent to the year end, overheads are now
annualising at a level which should allow the company to trade profitably on an
ongoing basis.
