EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
INTRODUCTION
The 26 week period to 29 July 2006 was another period of encouraging progress
for our core Sports Fascias. In the period we have successfully completed the
conversion of all the Allsports stores we intend to retain and they will
contribute to group profitability in the second half. We have also acquired 14
airport stores from Hargreaves (Sports) Limited. We believe airports provide an
excellent opportunity for us to trade successfully and to broaden our offer and
appeal.
The Fashion Fascias are in a year of transition with continuing conversions of
the legacy fascias (ATH-, AV) to the Scotts Fascia and ongoing disposals of
underperforming stores. The recent like for like trading of the Fashion Fascias
has been encouraging.
The result of this further progress is an improved operating profit after net
financing charges (before exceptional items) of £3.1 million (2005: £1.1
million).
Profit before tax in the period was £3.2 million (2005: loss before tax £2.6
million) helped by a net exceptional credit of £0.1 million (2005: exceptional
charge £3.7 million). Property rationalisation remains a major priority for the
balance of this year and further disposals will result in an exceptional charge
in the second half of the current year.
Profit for the period after taxation was £2.1 million (2005: loss £1.6 million).
SPORTS FASCIAS
The Sports Fascias have continued to trade positively and we believe they
benefit from a differentiated sports fashion led product positioning and a well
designed own brand and licensed brand proposition. This proposition has been
enhanced recently by the launches of Rivington and Brookhaven. The results of
the Sports Fascias are encouraging, and these Fascias account for all the growth
in first half revenues. Looking to the future, sustainable performance depends
on the continuing ability and desire of our branded supplier partners to
differentiate their product offer in different distribution channels.
Like for like sales figures for the ex Allsports store portfolio will not really
become meaningful until after the anniversary of all conversions having been
completed. The merchandising and buying issues surrounding changing the offer to
a JD offer in the converted stores has provided an enormously useful insight
into variations in demand patterns in smaller towns with different demographic
and footfall characteristics. We believe the lessons learned will eventually
enhance the performance of the overall Sports Fascias store portfolio.
Following the acquisition of 14 airport stores from Hargreaves, we now have 15
stores in airport locations, one of which is an ex Allsports store at Manchester
airport on the landside. The airport stores which were acquired are at Heathrow,
Gatwick and Stansted, in both landside and airside locations. They currently
trade under the Hargreaves, Nike, Quiksilver and Beach Party fascia names. The
Hargreaves stores now have a JD offer and we intend to refascia them as JD
stores as soon as is practicable. Although the security alerts of August have
dented recent trade in these stores we believe that airport retailing remains an
important opportunity for the Group.
FASHION FASCIAS
When we reported on last year's final results we said that the Fashion Fascias
would only provide profit to the business if some of the larger rented and over
rented ex JD Fashion Fascia stores could be disposed of. Useful progress has
been made in the necessary store portfolio rationalisation with the disposal of
three underperforming stores.
Stocks and overheads have been well controlled and margins have been maintained.
Whilst considerable progress has been made in the Fashion Fascias, which
represented only 7% of turnover in the first half, they will still be a
substantial loss maker in the current year because of property issues.
Nevertheless, the outlook for these Fascias is getting brighter and the current
like for like sales performance supports this view.
GROUP PERFORMANCE
Revenue, gross margin and overheads
Total Group revenue increased by 12.6% in the period to £235.9 million (2005:
£209.6 million) and by 3.1 % on a like for like basis (excluding Allsports and
the newly acquired airport stores).
Revenue increased by 3.2% on a like for like basis in the Sports Fascias
(excluding Allsports and the newly acquired airport stores). The Fashion Fascias
like for like sales performance was up 2.0% cumulatively in the half year
period.
Group gross margin increased in the period from 46.6% to 47.4% reflecting the
benefits of better stock management and efforts to improve bought in margin in
the Sports Fascias.
Overheads (excluding exceptional items) net of other operating income, which
include some Allsports integration costs, increased to 45.5% of sales (2005:
45.3%), partly as a result of increased transport and utility costs. Other cost
ratios have been well controlled, aided by the store rationalisation programme.
Operating profits and results
Operating profit (before net financing costs and exceptional items) increased by
£1.6 million from £2.8 million to £4.4 million. The Group operating profit
margin (before net financing costs and exceptional items) for the first half of
the year has therefore increased from 1.3% to 1.9%.
As a result of an exceptional credit of £0.1 million (2005: charge of £3.7
million), operating profit after exceptional items but before net financing
costs was £4.5 million (2005: loss of £0.9 million). The exceptional items
comprise:
£m
Onerous lease costs 1.2
Profit on disposal of non-current assets (1.3)
---------
Total (0.1)
---------
The onerous lease costs relate to vacant stores including failed ex First Sport
store assignments.
Profit before tax in the period was £3.2 million (2005: loss before tax £2.6
million) helped by the year on year movement in the net exceptional items.
Debt reduction and working capital
Net debt has increased from £23.3 million to £24.9 million in the twelve months
to 29 July 2006 but given the purchase of the 14 airport stores for £5.0 million
in the current period and Allsports for £15.0 million in October 2005, this
reflects a material underlying debt reduction. Gearing has decreased from 46% at
30 July 2005 to 45% at 29 July 2006.
Net debt has increased from £13.2 million to £24.9 million in the six months to
29 July 2006 but this reflects the normal trading and working capital cycles for
the first half year plus the purchase of the 14 airport stores for £5.0m.
Inventories have increased from £55.5 million at both 30 July 2005 and 28
January 2006 to £62.2 million as a result of the acquisitions of Allsports and
the 14 airport stores. Trade creditors continue to be paid to terms to maximise
settlement discounts.
STORE PORTFOLIO
Group store numbers increased in the period from 416 to 419 although the
disposal of some larger space stores meant that the total retail square footage
decreased from 1,277,000 sq ft to 1,256,000 sq ft. The split between the Sport
and Fashion Fascias is as follows:
Sport
No. of stores Retail ('000 sq ft)
At 28 January 2006 370 1,133

DIVIDENDS AND EARNINGS PER ORDINARY SHARE
The Board has considered the improved first half trading performance, current
trading conditions and the ongoing store rationalisation and has decided to
propose an increased interim dividend of 2.40p per ordinary share (2005: 2.30p).
The dividend will be paid on 12 January 2007 to shareholders on the register as
at close of business on 8 December 2006.
The adjusted basic earnings per ordinary share before exceptional items are
6.21p (2005: 2.49p).
The basic earnings per ordinary share are 4.45p (2005: loss of 3.29p).
CURRENT TRADING AND OUTLOOK
Trading since the period end has been satisfactory with year to date like for
like sales to 23 September 2006 in the JD Sports Fascias (excluding Allsports
and the newly acquired airport stores) now up by 4.0%. The Fashion Fascias like
for like sales for the same period are now up by 5.7% against weak comparatives.
Overall the Board expects results to continue to improve with trading to date
currently running marginally ahead of market expectations. The final result
remains heavily dependent upon sales performance during the key Christmas
trading period.
EMPLOYEES
We have achieved a lot across the Group since the last year end and this would
not have happened without the commitment of all our staff and management. The
Board extends its thanks to all involved who have contributed to our continuing
success.

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with accounting
policies set out in the Group's audited financial statements for the 52 weeks
ended 28 January 2006. The interim financial report does not include all of the
information required for full annual financial statements.
The interim financial report has been prepared on the basis of the recognition
and measurement requirements of EU-IFRS applied in the financial statements at
