Results 
 
 Gledhow Investments plc ("Gledhow" or the "Company") is pleased to announce 
   its half year results ("interim results") for the current financial year. 
       The period covered is from 1 October 2018 to 31 March 2019. These are 
          unaudited interim results. 
 
       The Company continues to pursue its investment strategy which has the 
          objective of achieving long-term capital growth. 
 
    The Company had cash of GBP 85,890 at the period end. The Company made a 
          pre-tax loss of GBP 58,255. 
 
   The Company had a pre-IPO exposure to Block Energy PLC, with an outlay of 
   GBP55,500. The Company has disposed of this entire position for GBP175,463, a 
 216% uplift on its original investment. GBP134,963 of the disposal came after 
          the period end. 
 
       Despite the uncertain economic environment the Company is in a strong 
  position, thanks to its strong cash position, and we look forward to being 
 able to make opportunistic investments in small to medium sized undervalued 
          companies as they arise.

   small to medium sized quoted or unquoted companies. These investments are 
carried in the accounts as current asset investments and are valued at lower 
          of cost and net realisable value.

          reviewed by the auditors of the Company.
