I believe reflecting the flexibility of its business model. this gives shareholders grounds for continued confidence in the fundamental strengths and resilience of the business. A year ago the outlook for our Investment Banking division was somewhat uncertain but we remained confident that the short term Total income for the year to 27 September 2009 was £212.3 impact would be containable. Having reported an operating loss of million, 2.8% up on last year, against a fall in the FTSE 100 average £0.8 million at the interim stage (excluding redundancy costs), the level across each financial year of 21.6%. Pre-tax profits excluding division has been able to end the year in the black. Trading activity redundancy costs and amortisation of the intangible asset – client and the level of enquiries that are being received suggest that the relationships were £32.1 million, 12.7% down on last
