Introduction 
 
 
During the period under review Avanti continued to consolidate its position as 
the UK's leading dedicated digital out of home media company, even in the face 
of the downturn in the global economy, and the UK media sector in particular. 
The Company's improved performance reflects the impact of our new strategy 
incorporating cost reduction and control, aligned with an emphasis on 
advertising sales growth, new business and new creative initiatives. 
 
 
 
 
Financial 
 
 
Revenue for the 6 month period was GBP2.39m (2007: GBP2.64m), a decline of 9.5%, 
but a 42.8% reduction in operating costs for the period from GBP2.81m to 
GBP1.63m led to a significant reduction in the operating loss to GBP1.63m (2007: 
loss of GBP2.46m). 
 
 
The continued level of losses was in line with our expectations, arising in part 
as a result of the restructuring costs incurred in implementing the Company's 
new strategy.  We have announced previously that the Company is continuing to 
seek further capital, and the Company continues to make progress in this regard. 
 
 
Avanti has successfully grown its year-on-year advertising revenues from 
national brands by 15% for the period, against a total market advertising 
decline of 7%*.  This growth follows a global shift from traditional media into 
digital out of home display which we anticipate is a trend that is set to 
continue in 2009 and beyond.

New Contracts 
 
 
Avanti has an increasingly strong new business pipeline. The Company has 
achieved a number of notable account wins during the current year including most 
recently the Queens Shopping Arcade in Cardiff, and a new 10 year agreement with 
the UK's premier shopping mall, Bluewater. Avanti is also pleased to announce 
that it has commenced roll-out of a digital screen network within the Sizzling 
Pub Company branded outlets owned by Mitchells & Butlers. Avanti already operate 
a network of digital screens within 71 'Scream' pubs also owned by the pub 
operator. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Funding 
 
 
The Company raised a total of GBP1.64m through equity share placings and 
convertible loans during the 6 months to 31st December 2008.  In particular we 
have announced that Neo Media Group SA ("Neo Media") now holds 29.98 per cent of 
the Company's issued share capital and a further GBP1.40m of Convertible Loans. 
 
 
While the Company had cash of GBP419,000 at the period end, the Board has been 
seeking to secure further short-term funding, and continues to explore potential 
sources of additional finance to enable the Company to take advantage of certain 
new business opportunities to support the development of the business. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Outlook 
 
 
The Company continues to develop its new relationship with Neo Media, and a 
number of new initiatives are emerging from the partnership.  At the same time 
the Board continues to identify new market opportunities, which, if they are to 
be exploited fully for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders, will 
require further capital investment in new networks, sales and marketing. While 
the Board is confident that the continued and successful implementation of the 
strategy will deliver medium to long term growth for the Company and its 
shareholders, the short term prospects are dependent upon a number of factors. 
 These include the prevailing general economic conditions, securing sufficient 
working capital for the Company's working requirements and for the on-going 
development and expansion of the business. 
 
 
Importantly Avanti is now successfully attracting a wider portfolio of blue chip 
advertiser brands to our networks, a number of whom are now repeat advertisers. 
 These include Guinness, Lucozade, Universal, Toyota, BBC, Vodafone, the Central 
Office of Information and Unilever. 
 
 
Innovation and new initiatives continue to be cornerstones of the Company's 
strategy, and in December Avanti successfully launched its new marketing 
initiative, "Digital Life", a consolidation play within the digital display 
sector. Digital Life is the start of greater collaboration with other 
organisations within the sector and a first of its kind.   We have also 
announced today the launch of "Digital Youth", a similar sales and marketing 
venture with Sub TV, the owner of the UK's largest universities' digital screen 
network. 
 
 
As a leader in this maturing media sector, in May Avanti will launch and host 
across its networks the world's first short film festival shown exclusively on 
digital out of home networks.  Art by Chance will screen 30 second films of all 
genres, including fiction, animation and documentary.  Art by Chance will take 
place in 59 cities across 11 countries including the UK, USA, Canada, Germany 
and the Netherlands. 
 
 
While market conditions remain challenging, Avanti is making steady and tangible 
progress at the forefront of the digital media sector. While the Company cannot 
escape the impact of the economic downturn, the Directors are convinced that 
Avanti is well positioned to generate significant growth once conditions in the 
media and advertising markets begin to improve.

Notes to the Interim Report 
For the six months ended 31st December 2008 
 
 
1.    The financial information contained in the Interim Report does not 
constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 240 of the Companies Act 
1985. The comparative financial information for the period ended 30th June 2008 
is an abridged version of the group's published financial statements for that 
year, which contained an unqualified audit report and did not contain a 
statement under s237(2) or s237(3) of the Companies Act 1985 and which has been 
filed with the Registrar of Companies. Neither the results for the periods ended 
31 December 2007 nor 31 December 2008 have been subject to audit or review by 
the auditors. 
 
 
2.    This financial information is prepared on a basis consistent with 
International Financial Reporting Standards and the accounting policies 
disclosed in the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2008. These interim 
financial statements do not contain all of the information which is required to 
be disclosed in order to comply with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' which 
is not compulsory for AIM listed companies. 
 
 
The Directors are currently engaged in raising further funds for the group. They 
are confident that their efforts will be successful and accordingly these 
interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. 
 
 
3.    The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is based on the loss 
attributable to ordinary shareholders, divided by the weighted average numbers 
of shares in issue during the period.
