21st Century Technology : Adoption of FRS 101

Adoption of Financial Reporting Standard (FRS) 101- Reduced Disclosure Framework

21st Century Technology plc (AIM; C21), one of the UK's leading specialist technology service providers to the transport industry, announces that following the publication of a suite of new financial reporting standards by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), 21 Century Technology plc is required to make certain changes to the accounting framework (currently UK GAAP) for its entity financial statements, for periods commencing on or after 1 January 2015.

Accordingly, the Board has elected to present the non-consolidated financial statements of the parent company (21 Century Technology plc or 'Parent') under FRS 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework (FRS 101) - the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland with Reduced Disclosures for the year ending 31 December 2015 and thereafter until further notice.

It should be stressed that the reduced disclosures apply only to the non-consolidated accounts of the Parent. The consolidated accounts for the Group (comprising 21 Century Plc and its subsidiary undertakings) will continue to be prepared under full IFRS.

Once the reduced disclosures are applied, this will reduce the burden and cost of the Parent's statutory reporting obligations without adversely impacting the presentation of the Group financial statements. The Board considers this to be in the best interests of the Parent and the Group.

The Directors have considered the criteria required to apply the reduced disclosure framework and have satisfied themselves that 21 Century's parent company is eligible to adopt the reduced disclosure framework, providing shareholders with 5% or more of the shares in issue do not object.

A shareholder in 21 Century may serve objections to the use of the disclosure exemptions on 21 Century's parent company non-consolidated accounts, in writing, to Glenn Robinson, the Company's Finance Director at its registered office (Units 3-4 ZK Park, 23 Commerce Way, Croydon CR0 4ZS) not later than 9 March 2015
