Interim Results

Internet Music & Media PLC 19 March 2004 To be embargoed until 1.30pm on 19 March, 2004 INTERNET MUSIC & MEDIA PLC Interim Results for the six months ended 30th June 2003 Chairman's Statement I am reporting the interim results for Internet Music & Media Plc for the six month period ended 30th June 2003. The results for the period under review show a loss before and after taxation of £0.658 million. To a large extent these results have been superseded by events. On 28th March 2003 the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with certain investors to provide interim financing. Following this, the investors provided loans totalling £0.482 million during the period March to September 2003. Notwithstanding this additional finance, the Company was unable to stem the losses incurred by its subsidiaries Groovetech LLC, in the USA and Groovetech Limited, in the UK and in September 2003 these subsidiaries ceased operations. Administrative receivers were subsequently appointed to Groovetech Limited. As a result, the Company asked the Stock Exchange to suspend trading in its ordinary shares on AIM, pending clarification of its financial position. The investors referred to above, have now agreed to provide a further line of credit for the Company of £50,000 which the Directors believe will enable it to continue to trade at least until 31st August, 2004 during which time the Directors will investigate potential acquisitions. Should agreement be reached on the terms of any such transaction, existing shareholders are likely to suffer substantial dilution. The Company has now requested that trading in its ordinary shares on AIM is restored with immediate effect.
