HERALD STAFF


By Peter Johnson
Herald staff
London-based Crown Corporation, a company turnaround specialist, is to invest close to one billion dollars in Argentine projects in the medium term, a company executive told the Herald.
Crown Corporation’s chief executive, Wolfgang Menzel, said that in a first phase the investments will total some 630 million dollars, with the lion’s share going into house building projects.
Operating through Lambert Financial Investments Ltd, the company has targeted five main areas where investments will be carried out, mainly construction, waste management, water treatment and security prevention projects.
Lambert Financial’s president for Latin America, Alberto Camjalli, said that the company is in talks with a number of companies and has already signed an investment deal with the Alemarsa construction company.
Menzel highlighted the fact that of prime importance are the human and ethical standards of the companies they invest in and hoped that Crown’s contribution to management will widen the horizon of local businessmen that may have never operated abroad.
Menzies also added that besides providing management assistance and technology, it could also bring foreign companies to Argentina to operate if goods providers do not exist locally.
This would appear to be the case in the security prevention area where Menzies talked about setting up manufacturing facilities for explosives and drug sniffing equipment and high tech bullet proof vests.
Asked why Argentina was so attractive at the moment, especially when the future is less than certain, both Menzel and Camjalli emphasized that this is a golden opportunity to invest in Argentina, “due to the low labour costs and qualified workforce.”
In response to a question about the return on investment expected by Crown, Menzel said “quite a bit more than the market average.”
According to Crown’s website, the company “draws on the industry and financial expertise of an experienced and knowledgeable team of professionals...to evaluate and identify operational priorities, undervalued assets, excessive costs and opportunities for growth and shareholder value appreciation.”
Crown Corp recently listed on London’s junior stock market AIM after raising over 200 million euros ($232 million) from European banks, with a market capitalisation of about 250 million pounds ($418 million), making it the sixth biggest company listed on AIM.
The company said it has raised funds to invest in and manage undervalued public companies that have lagged their peers, mainly in Canada and the United States.
Crown said a team of specialists will “reinvigorate” the underperforming companies by changing or providing management, providing additional capital and developing new business strategies. It said it would not commit more than 60 million euros or 25 percent of its net assets to any one acquisition.
Crown is incorporated in Bermuda and has offices across Europe.
 

hat da jemand ne Ahnung warum die jetzt auch in Stuttgart gehandelt werden kann ?

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

I have today been appointed Chief Executive of Crown Corporation Limited to
replace Dr Mariusz Rybak who has stepped down to pursue other business
interests. Dr Rybak has been chairman and chief executive of Crown since it came
to AIM in October 2003 and I wish to place on record, our sincere thanks for his
efforts during this period. We wish him well in his future activities.

Also stepping down today is our non-executive director, Mr Friedrich Kramer. We
thank him for his contribution over the last few years and wish him well in the
future.

The Company is now poised to make some significant changes, all aimed at
improving the returns on our capital and to our shareholders. Before setting out
these changes, I will quickly review the results and financial position of the
Company.

In November 2003, the Company obtained a number of large scale contracts in
South America which it was able to dispose of for a significant profit. The
gross proceeds of Euro280million (£190.4m) were satisfied by a bank guaranteed
promissory note, maturing on 31 May 2005. I am pleased to say these Promissory
Notes were repaid ahead of maturity and the proceeds, together with accrued
interest, have been deposited in term deposits with the Banco do Brasil.

The gross income for the period under review amounted to Euro285.9million
(£194.4m) and the profit on ordinary activities was Euro243.4million (£165.5m).
A dividend in kind has been paid of €219.5million (£149.3m) leaving
Euro23.9million (£16.2m) to carry forward. No further dividends are proposed and
the Company has no charge for taxation.

During 2004 and early 2005, your Board investigated a number of major investment
opportunities in the oil, property and mineral sectors. Unfortunately, the
stringent criteria demanded by your Board has resulted in no projects
progressing beyond the due diligence stage. It is now intended to broaden the
investment criteria to include smaller capitalisation companies, joint ventures
and pre-IPO funding. The Board also intends to provide corporate finance
advisory services and ongoing support to its investee companies on a more
formalised basis.

During the year, the Company distributed to shareholders by way of a dividend in
specie, the shares in a newly created company, Crown Pharmaceuticals Ltd (" Crown
Pharma" ). Within Crown Pharma were Euro235.01million (£169.8m) certificates of
bank deposits which were to be utilised to acquire a pharmaceutical business.
This transaction did not materialise and since the year end, the certificates of
deposits have been re-acquired by Crown in exchange for an issue of common
shares. This transaction is a related party transaction in view of Dr Rybak's
interests in the share capital of Crown Pharma. The directors (other than Dr
Rybak), who have consulted with Arden & Partners Limited, its new nominated
adviser, consider that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable so
far as the shareholders of Crown are concerned. Crown now holds over
Euro515million (£350.2m) in term deposits awaiting investment.

As part of the new strategy, the Board have agreed a number of new initiatives
aimed at improving the visibility and attraction of Crown as an investment. The
Founders Shares are to be converted to common shares on a one for one basis and
all common shares will rank pari passu in all respects with each other.

Crown has today agreed to acquire the whole of the issued share capital of
Langbar Capital Limited, a corporate finance and investment company, from me and
my family. It is intended to recommend to shareholders that the name of the
Company be changed to Langbar International Ltd at the forthcoming Annual
General Meeting on 25 July 2005. The Board will also be recommending the
introduction of a share option scheme to be used as part of the long term
incentive plans for senior executives in the Company.

In addition the Company has appointed Arden Partners Limited as its new
nominated adviser and broker. Crown has agreed to grant to Arden total of
3,120,000 warrants to subscribe for new common shares of Crown at 35p each,
exercisable for the period of two years from today. It is appropriate to thank
Nabarro Wells for their help and support during this initial period of the
Company's life.

The Board will be making further appointments in due course and it is proposed
to establish an Advisory Board to assist the executive team in assessing its
investment opportunities, the ongoing monitoring of investment performance and
to provide a depth of sector experience in the proposed areas of activity.

It is intended that the Company will be highly active and shareholders will be
kept abreast of the expansion programme. The strong net asset position of over
Euro3.53 per share (£2.40) and the highly motivated management team provide an
excellent platform for sustainable long term growth.

G Stuart Pearson
Acting Chairman and Chief Executive 7 June 2005

REVIEW OF BUSINESS

During the period under review Crown investigated a number of markets in pursuit
of its objectives of investing in under-performing companies and sectors. It
examined a number of possible transactions in the North American market,
particularly Canada, and various opportunities in Russia. A number of these
appeared to be attractive but, for various reasons, none of them were completed.

Crown was successful in acquiring substantial construction and supply contracts
in Argentina and Brazil; however, these proved to be less attractive for the
Group to fulfil and accordingly the Group profitably disposed of its interests
in the contracts for US$350million.

Crown is continuing to seek suitable investment opportunities. Various new
initiatives have been started since the year end and further details are set out
in the Chairman's Statement and the Post Balance Sheet Events paragraph below.

POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

On 6 June 2005, Crown Corporation Limited acquired the whole of the issued share
capital of Langbar Capital Limited, the consideration being satisfied by the
issue of 2,000,000 common shares in Crown.

On 6 June 2005, Crown Corporation Limited and CMC Crown Management Limited
(" CMC" ) mutually agreed to terminate the existing management contract forthwith,
and have entered into an agreement to convert the 100,000 issued Founder Shares
into common shares, ranking pari passu with the existing common shares. The
resolutions necessary to effect the conversion of the Founder Shares will be
proposed at the annual general meeting of the Company to be held on 25 July
2005. As part of the arrangements for this termination outstanding accrued
management fees totalling Euros10,700,000 will be satisfied as to Euros5,000,000
by the issue to CMC of new common shares of Crown at their average mid-market
closing price over the 30 dealing days following the date of this announcement
and as to Euros5,700,000 by the issue of loan notes redeemable on 31 May 2008
and convertible into common shares at the same average mid-market closing price.
It has also been agreed that payment of additional sums totalling approximately
Euros9,500,000 due to CMC or Dr Rybak or secured by him will be deferred. The
directors (other than Dr Rybak) who have consulted with Arden & Partners
Limited, its new nominated adviser, consider that the terms of the transaction
are fair and reasonable so far as the shareholders of Crown are concerned.

PROPOSED NEW NAME

A resolution will also be proposed at the annual general meeting on 25 July 2005
that the name of the Company be changed to Langbar International Limited.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

1. General Information about the Company

The Company was incorporated in Bermuda on 4 June 2003. The Company intended to
establish itself as a diversified holding company providing management and other
services to companies in which it would hold substantial interests.

Crown's primary objective is to create value for its shareholders by making
investments in publicly traded companies in which it can assume an active role
and have significant influence over the management and strategic direction of
such companies.

The Company has its registered office in Bermuda and representative office in
Lugano in Switzerland.

2. Accounting policies
Accounting convention

The attached financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention.

Finance costs

Finance costs of debt and non-equity shares are recognised in the profit and
loss account over the term of such instruments at a constant rate on the
carrying amount.

Foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the
rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign
currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All
exchange differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
Investments

Long term investments are described as participating interests and are
classified as fixed assets. Short term investments are classified as current
assets.

Participating interests are stated at cost in the company balance sheet. Other
investments listed on a recognised stock exchange are valued at the lower of
cost and mid-market value at the balance sheet date. Unlisted investments are
stated at cost. Provision is made for any impairment in the value of
investments.

Other financial instruments

The other current asset financial instruments or term debt supported by such
instruments are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Revenues

All net income arising from the disposal of assets held as investments is
treated as revenues.

3. Operating expenses From 4 June 2003
to
31 December 2004
------------------
€ 000s
------

Administrative expenses (2,554)
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets (5)
Dividend on founders' shares (management fees) (23,328)
--------
(25,887)

The founder shares are entitled to a fixed monthly dividend equal to 0.75% of
the net assets of the Company.

A founder share dividend of €23,327,611 for the above mentioned period, together
with any interest thereon, has been waived by CMC, Crown Management Corporation
Limited (CMC). CMC is the proprietor of the founder shares and is a company
controlled by Dr. M. Rybak, a Director of the Company.


4. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share have been calculated by dividing the profit on ordinary
activities after taxation and the profit retained (after dividend in kind) for
the period by 44,470,550 shares, being the weighted average of shares in issue
during the period from incorporation to December 31, 2004.

No adjustment is required to determine diluted earnings per share as the average
market price of the common shares during the period was below the exercise price
of the outstanding options.
