The balance of goodwill and the intangibles associated with backlog, customer relations and technology relate to
the acquisition of AEG PS by the Company on September 10, 2009.
During the period to September 30, 2010 goodwill on acquisition of AEG PS was reduced by €2.150 million
representing the transfer to the Company of 250,000 Founder shares in settlement of certain transaction-related
expenses. Goodwill was further reduced by €2.414 million following the determination of the tax audit of AEG
Power Solutions GmbH, the Company’s subsidiary in Germany. Under the agreement for the acquisition of AEG
PS, 500,000 shares and €5 million cash were held in escrow pending finalisation of the tax audit. This has now
been concluded and the Company expects an amount of €2.414 million to be returned to it from escrow. This
represents a reduction in the price paid for the acquisition of AEG PS and accordingly goodwill has been re-
duced.
The goodwill and intangibles on acquisition are subject to annual impairment testing. A test was carried out at
June 30, 2010 and no impairment was identified other than the charge for Backlog of €2.605 million shown
above. The impairment test will be repeated in the fourth quarter of 2010 in line with the Group’s normal policy.
