CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction

I am pleased to report the Group's results for the six months ended 30 June
2007, the highlights of which are as follows:

  * European Patent Office announces grant of a patent for use of its
    parametric Model Predictive Control technology.
   
  * Joint Research and Development project to convert a diesel powered Minibus
    into the first Greek hydrogen fuel cell powered minibus.
   
  * Founder, Professor Stratos Pistikopoulos, win's this year's Royal Academy
    of Engineering MacRobert Award.
   
  * Greek subsidiary enters a Strategic Alliance agreement with Tropical SA and
    receives three commercial contracts for hydrogen based electrical power
    generators.
   
Results and dividends

The Group's loss before taxation for the six month period ended 30 June 2007
amounted to �467,536, (2006: loss �188,182) after charging �149,798 relating to
the amortisation of patents on turnover of �37,844 (2006: �9,084). Loss per
share is 0.10 pence and the directors do not recommend the payment of an
interim dividend.

Trading

The Group has two trading subsidiaries, Parametric Optimization Solutions
Limited, in the UK, and ParOS Technology EPE, in Greece. The strategy of these
subsidiaries in the short and medium term is to generate revenue by building
prototype products for use within industrial businesses, entering into
partnerships with manufacturers and securing consulting projects with companies
that supply products that are able to use the Group's intellectual property.

Outlook

The directors are satisfied by the progress made with the Group's strategy of
focusing on commercialising technology that provides cost effective control for
the energy systems of the future. In particular, the award of a European Patent
and winning the first commercial contracts are significant events during the
period.

The directors hope to be able to report further progress for the year as a
whole.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM REPORT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2007

 1. The interim financial statements have not been audited and they do not
    constitute full financial statements within the meaning of s240 of the
    Companies Act 1985. The comparative figures for the year ended 31 December
    2006 have been extracted from the Group's full financial statements.
    Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2006 have been filed with
    the Registrar of Companies and have been reported on by the Group's
    auditors. The auditors' opinion was not qualified, but contained an
    Emphasis of Matter paragraph relating to the valuation of the intangible
    asset.
   
 2. Basic and diluted loss per share has been calculated using a loss for the
    financial period of �459,947 (�188,182 loss for the six months ended 30
    June 2006 and �1,917,808 loss for the year ended 31 December 2006) and a
    weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period 1
    January 2007 to 30 June 2007 of 472,950,195 (376,977,458 for the six months
    ended 30 June 2006 and 425,308,920 for the year ended 31 December 2006).
    Due to the loss in the period, share options in issue are non dilutive.
   
 3. Goodwill of �753,845, arising on the acquisition of Parametric Optimization
    Solutions Limited, was capitalised. Goodwill is not amortised, however, the
    recoverable amount of goodwill is tested for impairment annually or when
    events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The
    impairment charge for the year ended 31 December 2006 was �375,000; this
    was deducted from the carrying value.
   
 4. Intangible Assets (Patents) owned by Parametric Optimization Solutions
    Limited totalling �4,531,178 have been capitalised. Intangible Assets are
    amortised over their useful life of 20 years. The amortisation charge for
    the six months ended 30 June 2007 is �149,798 (�nil for the six months
    ended 30 June 2006 and �236,697 for the year ending 31 December 2006). The
    recoverable amount of intangible assets is tested for impairment annually
    or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be
    impaired. The impairment charge for the year ended 31 December 2006 was �
    795,735; this was deducted from the carrying value.
   
 5. Copies of this interim report will be posted to all of the Company's
    shareholders shortly. Further copies can be obtained by writing to The
    Company Secretary, ParOS plc, One Hammersmith Grove, Hammersmith, London W6
