Interim Results

TV Commerce Holdings PLC 29 January 2008 Tuesday 29 January 2008 TV Commerce Holdings PLC TV Commerce Holdings PLC ('TV Commerce' or the 'Group'), the AIM-listed media and entertainment company, today reports its Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2007. Highlights / recent activity • Closure of TV Commerce Limited on 28 February 2007, results in disclosure of results as discontinued business. • Net assets of the Group at 30 June 2007 were £456,970. • Sanction of the High Court received on 23 January 2008, enabling the company to effect the capital reorganisation approved by shareholders at the AGM held on 10 August 2007. Commenting on the results TV Commerce Chief Executive Vince Stanzione said: 'The approval of the High Court to the capital reorganisation passed at the AGM will enable the Board to return the surplus funds to shareholders and effect an orderly wind down of the Company's affairs.'

This approval will enable the Board to effect a reduction in the capital of the Company, with surplus funds being returned to Shareholders in due course. This represents the conclusion of what has been a difficult period for the Group. At the time the Company's shares were first admitted to trading on AIM in February 2005, the prospects for the Group's business model depended upon the continuation of the regulatory regime covering the telecommunications and broadcasting market then in force. It was disappointing, therefore, that changes to that regime rendered this model unsustainable, at the time when the Group had become profitable. I have no doubt that Shareholder's interests have been preserved by the prompt action of the Board to shut down the operations of TV Commerce Limited and the steps taken to ensure that the remaining funds are returned as soon as possible. I would like to thank my fellow directors for their support during this period.
