* Cheap Chinese Imports Killing Local Shoemakers
------------------------------------------------
Two luxury shoe manufacturers in Romans-sur-Isere have gone to
the wall, signaling what may be the end of the country's shoe
industry, Agence France-Presse says.

Just weeks after Stephanie Kelian left more than a hundred
employees jobless, Charles Jourdan, another of the town's famous
shoemaker, also fell into receivership.  AFP says the 88-year-old
Christian Dior supplier had failed to pay EUR9 million (US$11
million) in debt.

The collapse is being blamed on cheap Chinese imports swamping
the market and hurting local manufacturers.  Many believe
shoemaking in France, which prides itself for fashion and
craftsmanship, is as good as dead.  Right now, there's only one
shoemaker left in Romans-sur-Isere -- Robert Clergerie, a firm
started by a former Charles Jourdan employee in 1981.

INFINEON TECHNOLOGY: In Talks with X-Fab over Munich Plant
----------------------------------------------------------
Semiconductor manufacturer Infineon Technology is holding talks
with a local rival regarding the sale of its controversial Munich
Perlach plant, Die Welt says.

Infineon confirmed it is in talks with X-Fab, but insiders say
the negotiations have been "difficult" and it remains unclear
whether a deal would be reached.  If Infineon decides to sell the
site, it could realign the closure funds to help X-Fab save as
many of the 800 jobs at the plant.

Meanwhile, trade union IG Metall has stepped up its effort to
stop the closure.  The union revealed Thursday it had asked
Infineon to start talks early September.  In February, Infineon
head Wolfgang Ziebart revealed plans to phase out the site in
2007, citing falling demand for the plant's special microchips
and lagging production technology.

Founded in 1999, Infineon Technologies employs around 36,000
workers worldwide.  In fiscal year 2004, the group achieved
EUR7.19 billion in sales and EUR61 million in consolidated
surplus.

NORDEX AG: Reports Better H1 Figures; Aims for Breakeven in H2
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the first half of fiscal 2005 (January 1 to June 30), the
Nordex Group registered a sharp increase in order receipts over
the previous year.  Thus, order receipts rose by around 38% to
EUR157.5 million (previous year: EUR113.9 million).  The Company
attributes this to rising customer confidence following the
completion of the recapitalization program in the spring.  In the
second quarter alone, the Company registered a 175% rise in order
receipts to EUR122.8 million (previous year: EUR44.6 million).

This was accompanied by a substantial increase in business
volumes, with revenues in the period under review climbing by 17%
to around EUR105 million (previous year: EUR89.5 million).
Whereas the first quarter had been dragged down by short-falls on
the supply side on account of the Company's weak financial
condition at that time, revenues in the second quarter doubled to
EUR65.6 million (previous year: EUR33 million).  Of this, roughly
53% was generated outside Germany (previous year: 51%).  At 71%,
the multi-megawatt N80/N90 turbines were the main sales driver
(previous year: 44%).

In the first half of the year, operating loss before tax,
interest and exceptionals contracted by around 21% to EUR9.3
million (previous year: EUR11.7 million) thanks in particular to
the increase in capacity utilization in the second quarter.
Operating loss in the second quarter stood at EUR2.1 million
(previous year: EUR6.5 million).  In June, the month in which the
greatest revenues were generated, Nordex broke even at the
operating level with profit of EUR2.1 million (previous year:
loss of EUR2.7 million).

The Nordex Group's financial situation has been decisively
rein-forced thanks to the recapitalization program.  As a result,
the equity ratio rose to 27% as of June 30, 2005 (December 31,
2004: 1.3%).  At the same time, Nordex had net cash at banks of
around EUR4.2 million, replacing the net bank liabilities of
around EUR28.2 million which it had held on December 31, 2004.

To ensure efficient capacity utilization, Nordex increased its
working capital ratio to 16.8% (December 31, 2004: 7.3%) by
specifically commencing work on and pre-financing current
projects.  This relatively low ratio is primarily due to the
continued high ratio of advance payments of 116.1%.  Cash flow
from financing activities was positive again for the first time,
rising by EUR46.5 million to EUR35.2 million as a result of the
Company's capital increase.

Turning to fiscal 2005 as a whole, Nordex projects order receipts
of over EUR300 million (previous year: EUR237 million) and
revenues of a total of EUR280 million (previous year: EUR214
million).  Thanks to the favorable capacity utilization, the
Company should post operating profit in the second half of 2005.
On the basis of its current cost structure and revenues of EUR75
million per quarter, Nordex expects to break even at the
operating level.  Management reaffirms its target of a further
reduction in operating loss to around EUR2 million in fiscal 2005
as a whole.

PRIMACOM AG: First-half Losses Swell to EUR60.1 Million
-------------------------------------------------------
Cable network operator Primacom failed to capitalize on higher
turnover, thus suffering another loss for the first six months of
the year, Borsen Zeitung says.

Despite a 6.8% hike in turnover to EUR110.2 million during the
period, Primacom still saw its first-half operating profit drop
to EUR5.74 million from last year's EUR11.63 million.  The
results were greatly affected by the group's dismal second
quarter, booking only EUR1.83 million in operating profit, a big
drop from last year's EUR6.16 million.  The group's
second-quarter EBITDA slipped 15% to EUR22.9 million.

According to Borsen Zeitung, Primacom's results were greatly
affected by its costly financial restructuring.  The group's
first-half net loss ballooned to EUR60.1 million from EUR52
million.  Primacom's consolidated debt currently stands at
EUR999.6 million with liquid funds set at EUR396,000.  The
group's negative equity also deepened from EUR198.4 million to
EUR258.5 million.  The group can still avail of the remaining
EUR448.3 million from a EUR1 billion credit line acquired in
2000.

ALITALIA SPA: Join Strike Next Week, SULT Tells Other Unions
------------------------------------------------------------
Cabin crew union Sindicato Unitario Lavoratori Transporti (SULT)
is urging workers in the transport sector all over the country to
join in their strike on Sept. 6-7, The Associated Press says.

The union representing Alitalia's flight attendants called on
flight controllers, railway and mass transit employees to join
the two-day strike to protest the carrier's refusal to include
the union in current labor talks.

Originally scheduled for this week, the strike had to be delayed
to avoid violating a ban on transport strikes during the summer
season.  In a last ditch effort, labor minister Roberto Maroni
tried to mediate between the two contending parties last week,
but had to give up when Alitalia stood firm on its decision.

Alitalia accuses SULT of violating labor agreements.  Already, it
has suspended arrangements like direct deduction of union dues
from paychecks, saying it couldn't honor such schemes since SULT
has not been acting in good faith during contract renewal
negotiations.  SULT denies the allegations.

FIAT SPA: Sends Italian Executive to Struggling Chinese Unit
------------------------------------------------------------
Fiat S.p.A. has appointed the first Italian executive ever to
head its struggling carmaking joint venture in China, according
to the Financial Times.  Paulo Massi is to become chief executive
of Nanjing Fiat.

Nanjing Fiat is operated with Nanjing Auto, one of China's oldest
carmakers.  The enterprise failed to take off with the rapid
growth in the Chinese car market over the past five years.

AFX notes that the appointment follows Nanjing Auto's decision to
acquire failed U.K. carmaker MG Rover.  It could suggest Nanjing
Auto is pushing to sell cars independently, the report said.
Nanjing Fiat's vehicle sales fell 45% to 3,590 in the first
quarter of the year.  Its market share in 2004 was 1.4%.

Fiat S.p.A., headquartered in Turin, is one of the largest
industrial groups in Italy and the fourth largest European-based
automobile manufacturer.  It reported revenues of EUR34.2 billion
for the 9-month period to 30 September 2004.  The founding
Agnelli family owns about 30% of the Company.

ELEKTRIM SA: Wins Back Control of PTC
-------------------------------------
Elektrim Telekomunikacja (ET) has reclaimed ownership of Polish
mobile telecoms operator PTC, according to Reuters.

A Polish court has handed back control of east Europe's biggest
mobile operator to ET, a joint-venture controlled by Vivendi and
an affiliate.  The ruling is Vivendi's first victory after ET
lost its 48% stake in PTC in February.

Vivendi still stands to face several cases to secure the holding.
The company and troubled conglomerate Elektrim S.A. have been
fighting with Deutsche Telekom, a 49% shareholder, over PTC.  The
legal battles for the control of the firm are now pending before
the arbitration chambers and public courts in four European
countries.  The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the
British House of Lords had previously figured in the dispute.

Elektrim S.A. is a public holding company quoted on the Warsaw
Stock Exchange since 1992.  Its most valuable assets are Elektrim
Telekomunikacja Sp. z o.o., and Elektrownia Patnow-Adamow-Konin
S.A.  Since 1999 Elektrim has implemented a far-reaching
restructuring program to improve its operational efficiency and
strengthen its position in the market.  It plans to concentrate
in two industries -- telecommunications and power.

BARRY CALLEBAUT: Secures EUR850 Mln Revolving Credit Facility
-------------------------------------------------------------
Barry Callebaut AG, the world's leading manufacturer of
high-quality cocoa and chocolate products, said that it has
signed the previously announced Revolving Credit Facility with a
group of 15 banks.  This facility replaces the EUR575 million
Term and Revolving Facility in place since March 2003 and July
2004, respectively.  With EUR850 million, the facility is EUR110
million higher than initially planned, following the great
response from the banking market.  The company will cancel other
financing arrangements to compensate for the increased amount.
The facility was initially underwritten by ING, ABN AMRO, Fortis
and Natexis Populaires and subsequently offered to the syndicated
loan market.

The agreement consist of three parts:

(a) A Revolving Credit Facility of EUR435 million with a minimal
    tenor of 5 and a maximum of 7 years

(b) A Revolving Credit Facility of EUR250 million with a minimal
    tenor of 3 and a maximum of 5 years, serving as back-up for
    the company's Commercial Paper program

(c) A Revolving Credit Facility of EUR165 million with a minimal
    tenor of 5 and a maximum tenor of 7 years to refinance the
    High Yield Bond 2003-2010 as from March 2007.  The cost
    reduction as from fiscal year 2007/08 will be approximately
    CHF14 million p.a.

The margin of the new facility is linked to a rating grid and
starts with an applicable margin of 82.5bps for the first period
until November 2005.  The commitment fee is 35% of the margin.
However, as from December 2005 onwards, Barry Callebaut expects
to benefit from a lower applicable margin of 65bps.

"The new agreement is a milestone in our commitment to strengthen
our Balance Sheet and will greatly enhance our financial
flexibility and security," said Dieter Enkelmann, Barry
Callebaut's CFO.  "The oversubscription of more than 50% of the
facility based on terms typically found in the investment grade
syndicated loan market is evidence of the confidence the
financial community has in our operational performance and market
position."

The syndicate consists of ABN AMRO Bank NV (books), Fortis Bank
NV (books), ING Belgium NV (books), Natexis Banques Populaires as
Underwriters/MLA's, KBC Bank NV, Lloyds TSB Bank plc,
Cooperatieve Centrale Rabobank B.A. as MLA's, BNP Paribas, Credit
Suisse, Mizuho Corporate Bank Nederland NV as Lead Arrangers,
Banque LBLux SA, NIB Capital Bank NV, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking
Corporation as Arrangers and Dexia Bank
Belgium SA, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc as Co-arrangers.

With annual sales of more than CHF4 billion for fiscal year
2003/04, Zurich-based Barry Callebaut is the world's leading
manufacturer of high-quality cocoa, chocolate and confectionery
products - from the cocoa bean to the finished product on the
store shelf.  Barry Callebaut operates more than 30 production
facilities in 22 countries and employs more than 8,000 people.
The company serves the entire food industry, from food
manufacturers to professional users of chocolate (such as
chocolatiers, pastry chefs or bakers), to global retailers.  It
also provides a comprehensive range of services in the fields of
product development, processing, training and marketing.  Fiscal
year 2004/05 will close on August 31, 2005. Results for fiscal
year 2004/05 will be published on November 10, 2005 (press
conference and analysts' conference).

                            *   *   *

In July, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'BB+'
long-term corporate credit ratings on Switzerland-based cocoa and
chocolate products supplier Barry Callebaut AG and its Belgian
subsidiary Barry Callebaut Services N.V.  The outlook remains
stable.

At the same time, Standard & Poor's assigned its 'BB+' long-term
senior unsecured bank loan rating to Barry Callebaut's proposed
EUR740 million credit facility, which is currently fully
repayable in 2010.

SWISS INTERNATIONAL: Bares Winter Schedule
------------------------------------------
Swiss International Air Lines will be offering flights to 42
European and 27 intercontinental destinations in its 2005/06
winter schedules.  The new timetable sees the further development
of SWISS' growing collaboration with Lufthansa and Star Alliance
members TAP Portugal and Austrian Airlines.  SWISS will operate
its winter schedules with a 70-aircraft fleet.  In view of market
conditions in the Basel region, SWISS will be substantially
reducing its services to and from EuroAirport
Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg.

SWISS and Lufthansa will be harmonizing their services between
Switzerland and Germany from the start of the 2005/06 winter
schedules on October 30.  All Lufthansa and all SWISS flights
between the two countries will be operated on a code share basis.
The new arrangement offers substantial benefits and added value
for customers of the two partners, in the form of more
frequencies, additional destinations and better connections
(through coordinated timetables) at the three hubs of Zurich,
Frankfurt and Munich.  SWISS and Lufthansa are also working to
create additional code share services, which will be gradually
introduced between their hubs and further European and
intercontinental destinations.

SWISS is also expanding the code share services it operates
together with Star Alliance members TAP Portugal and Austrian
Airlines.  All flights between Switzerland and Portugal (from
Zurich to Lisbon and from Geneva to Lisbon and Porto) will now
operate as code shares with TAP Portugal, and all services to
Vienna from Basel, Geneva and Zurich will be operated as code
shares with Austrian Airlines.  Further code share agreements are
currently being planned.  Details of these will be communicated
in due time.

SWISS will offer its own services to a total of 69
destinations -- 27 intercontinental and 42 European -- in its new
winter schedules.  These will be operated by a fleet of 70
aircraft.

SWISS' own service pattern to and from Zurich will remain
virtually unchanged, with a network of 41 European and 27
intercontinental destinations.  SWISS' own operations will be
supplemented by numerous code share services to various points in
Europe and farther a field.  All SWISS services between
Switzerland and Germany will be harmonized with those of
Lufthansa.  In cases in which the two carriers previously
competed against each other with almost simultaneous departures,
these flights will now be spread out, offering customers a denser
overall network of frequencies throughout the day.  SWISS
customers will enjoy no fewer than 54 daily services between
Zurich and Germany, compared with the present 35.

Service from Geneva will see the addition of Frankfurt, Munich,
Dusseldorf, Vienna and Porto to the SWISS network, through code
share agreements with Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines and TAP
Portugal.  Flights to Lisbon will be operated solely by TAP
Portugal from the beginning of September onwards, following the
introduction of the new code share agreement between the carrier
and SWISS.  Service will be withdrawn from the Geneva-Rome route
at the beginning of October.  Otherwise, SWISS' Geneva-based
service pattern remains unchanged for the winter schedules.
SWISS will thus offer seven of its own and 13 code share
destinations from Geneva.  The code share flights to the
Lufthansa hubs of Frankfurt and Munich will substantially expand
the range of connecting services available to customers from the
Geneva region.

Basel: SWISS announced back in January 2005 that, for economic
reasons, it is no longer able to maintain its services to and
from Basel in their present form.  In the current competitive
environment, small regional aircraft cannot be viably operated.
In view of this, the planned collaboration with regional carriers
has also proved impossible.  As a result of these developments,
SWISS has redefined its Basel-based services.  From October 30
onwards, SWISS will serve London City, Brussels and Amsterdam
from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg using one Embraer 145
and one Avro RJ100.  Frankfurt, Munich and Dusseldorf will also
be served from Basel through a code share agreement with
Lufthansa, and Vienna will be similarly served via a code share
with Austrian Airlines.

ALBARAKA TURK: Receives 'B' Currency Ratings, Stable Outlook
------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings assigned Turkey's Albaraka Turk Ozel Finans Kurumu
A.S. Long-term foreign and local currency ratings of 'B'.
Additionally, the agency has assigned ratings of Short-term
foreign and local currency 'B', Individual 'D', National
Long-term 'BBB (tur)' and Support '5'.  The Outlook on all
Long-term ratings is Stable.

The ratings reflect ABTFH's enhanced profitability and asset
quality as well as its stable funding structure.  These are
balanced by its relatively low (albeit improved) capital and
small size within the Turkish financial system.

Profitability improved markedly in 2004 through reduced
provisions and operating costs and a higher contribution from
fees and commissions.  This resulted in better efficiency
measures.  ABTFH also benefited from a non-recurring gain on sale
of real estate and absence of a tax provision due to an
investment allowance attributable to leasing.  Non-performing
loans declined by 45% in absolute terms to 4.02% of funds granted
with 73% reserve at end-2004 compared with 8.11% and 53%,
respectively, in the previous year.   The bank has a stable,

DOGUS HOLDING: Sale of Garanti Stake to GE Prompts Review
---------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings put Dogus Holding A.S.'s Senior Unsecured foreign
and local currency 'B+' ratings on Rating Watch Positive for
possible upgrade.

The rating action follows the 25 August announcement of Dogus to
sell a stake of 25.5% of Turkiye Garanti Bankasi (Garanti, rated
'BB-') to GE Consumer Finance.  Dogus currently holds a share of
around 55.96% in Garanti and plans to retain a c.25.5%
shareholding in Garanti as a strategic holding. Earlier this
month, Dogus announced that it had reached an agreement with Koc
Holding and Migros regarding the sale of its 70.77% stake in its
Food Retail business, Tansas.  Of Dogus's 70.77% stake in Tansas,
approximately 27.2% is held via Garanti, while the remainder is
held by Dogus and its group companies.  The transactions remain
subject to regulatory approval.

Those two transactions will lead to a sizeable cash inflow. GE
Consumer Finance has agreed to pay more than US$1.5 billion for
the stake of 25.5% in Garanti. In addition, US$250 million will
be received from the sale of 49.2% of the founder's shares in
Turkiye Garanti Bank.

"Following discussions with Dogus management, Fitch anticipates
that the proceeds will eliminate the entire debt at the level of
Dogus Holding AS and within its other non-financial services
operation, turning it into a net-cash positive group," said
Karsten Frankfurth, Director in Fitch's Corporate Group in
Frankfurt. The cooperation with GE Capital is expected to
strengthen Garanti's business profile.

Fitch's report on the company in June defined the de-leveraging
at the holding level as a potential factor that could lead to a
change in its ratings.  Also, the current ratings of Dogus were
below that of Garanti due to structural subordination that
lenders in Dogus have compared to those in Garanti.

Fitch aims to resolve the Rating Watch status following a more
detailed review of the future dividend base of Dogus, its
strategy going forward and having received evidence that the
proceeds are used to repay debt.  Potential rating upgrades
(local and foreign currency ratings) in order to resolve the
Ratings Watch are likely to remain at a level of a single notch.

Turkey's sovereign rating is presently 'BB-') Outlook Stable.

GATE GOURMET: Offers Workers Generous Severance Pay
---------------------------------------------------
Ailing caterer Gate Gourmet said Sunday it has reached a deal
that might end the dispute with employees, The Associated Press
says.

Gate Gourmet, owned by U.S. private equity firm Texas Pacific
Group, is offering employees two weeks' pay for each year of
service, more than twice the British statutory level for
redundancy pay.

It said in a statement, "It is Gate Gourmet London's hope that
the results of this voluntary program and compensation payment
plan, coupled with a possible compulsory program and work rule
changes, will reduce its work force to levels agreed upon by the
union which will restore the company to economic viability."

Gate Gourmet sacked around 660 employees after staging a walkout
over the hiring of temporary staff, prompting sympathy action by
British Airways ground crew on August 11.  The walkout forced the
carrier to cancel hundreds of flights, stranding more than
100,000 travelers.

The caterer earlier warned of bankruptcy if the contract with
British Airways is not renewed.  The carrier has agreed to renew
the contract but on the condition that Gate Gourmet resolves its
dispute with workers.  Gate Gourmet has refused to reinstate all
the fired employees, earning the ire of unions, which have
threatened to stage another strike.

MOTHERWELL BRIDGE: Returns with a Vengeance
-------------------------------------------
One of the most famous names from Scotland's industrial past,
Motherwell Bridge, has been resurrected two years after the
original company collapsed.

MB Engineering Solutions, which was formed from the remnants of
the heavy engineering concern, announced it had bought back the
rights to use the Motherwell Bridge name as it revealed a strong
set of results for the year to June 2005, its first full year of
trading.

Chairman Hugh Hayes and his team have produced the turnaround in
less than two years from the collapse of the old Motherwell
Bridge Holdings group, and he sees the return of the Motherwell
Bridge name as fitting now that the group is trading profitably.

Trading in the year generated a profit before tax of GBP3.2
million, on turnover of GBP93 million.  Mr. Hayes noted that each
of the operating subsidiaries traded profitably in the year, in
some cases producing their best results for some time.

He said the management team and the 1,200 employees, most of whom
had been employed by the old company, had all made a major
contribution towards the results and could be justifiably proud
of what had been achieved so far.  The restoration of the
Motherwell Bridge name helped underline the recovery and gave the
group credibility, and this generated further confidence within
the customer base.

Mr. Hayes said: "Trading has been good and the robust business
disciplines introduced to the group have seen us generate a lot
of cash this year.

"We've paid GBP2.1 million off our term loans this year, paid
GBP1.5 million to the old Motherwell Bridge Group Pension scheme,
we've bought the Motherwell site for cash, and we've also spent
another GBP900,000 on other capital projects.  Deferred
consideration of GBP1.9 million relating to the acquisition of
the subsidiaries was also paid this year.  All in all, it was a
year of good progress for the new company."

Looking ahead, Mr. Hayes said that having established the
viability of each subsidiary, an operating and development
strategy had been agreed for each one, designed to help ensure
reliable, regular, and repeatable results in the medium to longer
term.  These strategies varied from company to company, and would
be reviewed regularly.

In the shorter term, he noted that order books and enquiry levels
were strong and better than at this time last year.  He described
the trading outlook as "generally positive," although he stressed
that the group still relied heavily on engineering contracts, the
timing of which was a critical variable and often outside the
control of the group.

He added that the group would meet all its scheduled external
commitments in the 2005/6 financial year, including term loan
repayments of a further GBP1.5 million, and the final payment of
GBP1 million due to the old pension scheme next month.

He added: "With the old history just about fully resolved now,
good management disciplines in place and sound trading results,
we can start looking to the future.  We've already invested in
and restructured the Motherwell site, opened a new site in
Falkirk for MB Inspection, and will open a new site for MB
Inspection in Aberdeen this autumn.

"It's not just about financial recovery now -- it's about
investment and development.  We are ambitious for the group, have
strong support from our banks, and have a whole range of options
on how we go forward, including acquisitions, or possibly by
joining forces with another company."

NETWORK RAIL: Pre-tax Loss Down GBP117 Million Under IFRS
---------------------------------------------------------
Network Rail published its financial information for the year
ended 31 March 2005 and the opening balance sheet at 1 April
2004, restated under International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).

For the year ended 31 March 2005 and previous financial years,
Network Rail Infrastructure Limited (NRIL) prepared its financial
statements under U.K. Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (U.K. GAAP).  European Union regulations require
listed companies in any member state to adopt IFRS for financial
years commencing on or after 1 January 2005.

NRIL has a regulatory requirement to report in the manner of a
listed PLC and therefore must comply with IFRS for the first time
for the year ending 31 March 2006.

The main changes to the results and financial position of Network
Rail Infrastructure Limited reported under U.K. GAAP for the year
ended 31 March 2005 are:

(a) Profit from operations of GBP539 million, GBP132 million
    higher than that under U.K. GAAP;

(b) Loss before tax of GBP47 million, GBP117 lower than that
    under U.K. GAAP; and

(c) Net assets of GBP3,610 million, GBP1,607 million lower than
    that under U.K. GAAP.

The most significant areas of change on the transition to IFRS
are:

(a) Investment properties and fixed assets

IFRS significantly widens the definition of an investment
property. For Network Rail this now captures the majority of its
Spacia estate and a number of serviced offices.  This has
required a significant reclassification from property, plant and
equipment to investment properties.

Items have been reclassified to investment properties at the same
value that they were held within property, plant and equipment.
The rationale for this is that net assets should not be increased
or decreased by the transfer, given that in setting the
Regulatory Asset Base, the Office of Rail Regulation determined a
single overall economic value for the business.  GBP789 million
has been reclassified in the balance sheet at 31 March 2005.

Under IFRS movements in the fair value of investment properties
are recorded through the income statement within operating
profit, whereas currently under U.K. GAAP movements are taken
through the revaluation reserve.  GBP81 million of investment
property revaluation is included within operating profit under
IFRS.  Reclassifying items from property, plant and equipment
reduced the depreciation charge under IFRS for the year ended 31
March 2005 by GBP30 million.

(b) Pensions

Under IFRS the Company's share of the full pension deficit is
recognized on the balance sheet.  Actuarial gains and losses in
subsequent years are recognized immediately in the balance sheet
through the statement of recognized income and expense, outside
the income statement.

The Company's share of the scheme deficit under IFRS was GBP414
million at 31 March 2005.  Recognizing the Company's share of the
scheme deficit on the balance sheet reduced the income statement
charge for 2005 by GBP21 million.  Previously under U.K. GAAP the
deficit was being charged to the profit and loss account over the
average remaining service lives of employees.

(c) Deferred taxation

Significant additional deferred taxation provisions are required
under IFRS, mainly due to the tax treatment of the revaluation of
the railway network.  Under IFRS deferred taxation is provided in
full on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying value in the financial
statements.  The additional deferred taxation provision is
treated principally as a reduction in the revaluation reserve.
The deferred taxation provision at 31 March 2005 is GBP1,444
million, compared to GBP152 million reported under U.K. GAAP.
Deferred taxation coupled with the provision for the pension
deficit is the major reasons for the decrease in net assets under
IFRS.

(d) Financial instruments

Network Rail has taken advantage of transitional exemptions and
will adopt IAS 32 and IAS 39 in full from 1 April 2005.
Pro-forma financial information showing the impact of these
standards had they been adopted from 1 April 2004 is provided in
the published documents.

                        About the Company

London-based Network Rail, through subsidiary Network Rail
Infrastructure, owns, manages, and maintains 21,000 miles of
track and 40,000 bridges and tunnels in the U.K.  The
not-for-profit company, was formed with backing from the U.K.
government in 2002 to acquire the former Railtrack PLC from
insolvent parent company Railtrack Group.  Railtrack went into
administration in 2001 after the government withdrew funding for
the company whose reputation was wrecked by a fatal crash in 2000
at Hatfield.  Its shareholders are suing the government for
"misfeasance of justice" and a breach of human rights to recover
GBP157 million.

The case ("Geoffrey Rutherford Weir and ors. v. The Secretary of
State for Transport HC03CO4185") is being held at the high court
of Mr. Justice Lindsay.  Jonathan Sumption is spearheading the
government's defense.  Geoffrey Weir is the shareholders' lead
claimant.  Keith Rowley QC is the shareholders' barrister.  The
investors are acting together as The Railtrack Private
Shareholders Action Group (RPSAG).

PENDRAGON FURNITURE: No Bids Yet for Business
---------------------------------------------
Administrators from Ernst and Young are still looking for buyers
for Bridgend-based furniture factories Pendragon Furniture
Limited and Contour, according to BBC News.  The future of the
company and its 200 workers has been placed in uncertainty after
the receivership of Christie Tyler in July.

The Christie Tyler Group has already disposed of some plants,
including the Cambria Mobel plant in Pontypridd and Deeside
Furniture in Flintshire.

Don McGregor of GMB union said his group is seeking legal advise
over the way the Christie Tyler Group had been put into
receivership.  The collapse placed under threat around 1,850 jobs
at a total of eight plants in Wales and England.
