Results for the Full Year Ended 30 June 2017
Dublin, 7 September 2017: Cpl Resources Plc ('Cpl', the 'Group' or the 'Company'), Ireland's leading employment services group, today announced results for the year ended 30 June 2017.
Highlights
-- Proposal to return EUR25 million in capital to all shareholders by way of a Tender Offer -- Revenue increased by EUR21.8 million, to EUR455.2 million -- Gross Profit increased by 3% to EUR71.8 million -- 3% increase in Profit before tax to EUR15.8 million -- Earnings per share of 43.7 cent (2016: 43.9 cent) -- Total dividend per share of 11.5 cent (2016: 11.0 cent)
John Hennessy, Chairman commented:
"The Group's results for the year ended 30 June 2017 show growth in revenue and profit before tax, reflecting expansion of our team, development of our service offering and broadening of our geographical footprint.
In recent months, the Board has considered a range of strategic and financial options to enhance shareholder value, particularly taking account of the continued generation of positive cash flows by the Group. Cpl remains a profitable, cash generative business and has built up a net cash position of EUR33.6 million as at 30 June 2017. Following careful consideration and having taken appropriate advice, the Board has determined that a return of surplus capital is in the best interests of shareholders. Consequently, subject to shareholder approval, we intend to return up to EUR25 million of surplus capital, in the form of a tender offer, to shareholders.
The Board is recommending a final dividend of 5.75 cent per share. This will bring the total dividend for the year to 11.5 cent per share.Based on current trends and circumstances in our main markets we expect to deliver further growth in our business during the financial year to 30 June 2018."
Anne Heraty CEO added:
"We continued to grow our international footprint opening offices in Munich and Boston during the year. We now have over 40 offices in 10 countries. These offices provide Cpl clients with the international reach they need especially in resourcing local talent. We also made further strategic progress with the acquisition of RIG Healthcare Group. This is Cpl's first entry into the locum doctor market and enhances the Company's operating presence in the UK, following the acquisition of Clinical Professionals in September 2015.
We will continue to invest wisely to capture opportunities for growth. Cpl has a strong balance sheet with net assets of EUR103.7 million generated over the 27 years of continuous profitability. We believe our balance sheet and strong cash flows give us the resources to invest in the growth and expansion of our business while also returning capital to shareholders."

* as % of gross profit
The Group's results for the year ended 30 June 2017 show growth in revenue and profit before tax, reflecting expansion of our team, development of our service offering and broadening of our geographical footprint.
Our revenue grew by EUR22 million in the financial year, up 5% on the prior year, and Group gross profit and profit before tax grew by 3% in the year. The demand for talented temporary staff among our clients grew at a stronger pace than for permanent employees across most sectors during the year, with temporary fees growing by 12%. The demand for permanent staff was adversely affected by changes in regulation in the healthcare sector and concerns about Brexit, which slowed recruitment decisions by certain employers. Our profit before tax is modestly ahead of the prior financial year, which, in light of the changed mix of business between temporary and permanent recruitment in the year, is a positive performance.
At year end, the Group had a strong balance sheet, with net assets of EUR104 million at 30 June 2017, up from EUR94 million in the prior year. We ended the year with net cash of more than EUR33 million, after investing EUR10 million in RIG Healthcare Group and funding the working capital demands arising from the continued growth in our temporary business. It is in this context that we are pleased to announce the intention to return capital to shareholders by way of a tender offer.
Tender Offer
In recent months, the Board has considered a range of strategic and financial options to enhance shareholder value, particularly taking account of the continued generation of positive cash flows by the Group. As part of this the Board has, and will continue to, review acquisition and investment opportunities which may optimise value for shareholders and in June this year we were pleased to announce the acquisition of a 91% shareholding in RIG Healthcare Group.
Cpl remains a profitable, cash generative business and has built up a net cash position of EUR33.6 million as at 30 June 2017. Following careful consideration and having taken appropriate advice, the Board has determined that a return of surplus capital is in the best interests of shareholders.
Consequently, subject to shareholder approval, we intend to return up to EUR25 million of surplus capital, in the form of a tender offer, to shareholders (the "Tender Offer"). As was the case in the Group's previous return of capital to shareholders in 2011, the return of capital will be made by way of a fixed price tender offer structure. The Tender Offer will be made at a price per Ordinary Share of EUR6.75 (the "Tender Price").
The Board believes that a return of capital in the amount proposed represents the most effective use of those shareholder funds and that the continued strength of the Group's balance sheet, and its cashflow generation after the return of those funds, will be sufficient to pursue the Group's stated growth objectives. The Tender Offer provides all shareholders with choice (that is, the discretion to participate) and certainty of value. Those shareholders who do not wish to participate can retain their full existing investment in the company.
Further details on the Tender Offer are included in the section entitled "Proposed Tender Offer".
People
Once again our people have delivered outstanding service to our clients and candidates during the year. The continuous growth in our business poses challenges to our teams, and they have responded well to these challenges. Our customers continue to give us very positive feedback on the service they receive.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank all of our people for their commitment, dedication and hard work, delivered daily for the benefit of the whole Group. I also wish to thank our clients and candidates for their continued support, their valuable input and their loyalty to our business.
Board & Executive announcements
In March 2017, Colm Long was appointed to the Board as an independent non-executive director. Colm has extensive experience of media and digital businesses and has contributed very positively to the Board since his arrival. We are delighted to welcome him and look forward to working with him in the future.
As the Group embarks on its next phase of growth, the Board has appointed Mark Buckley, current CFO, to the position of Deputy CEO and COO for the Group, with responsibility for operational performance and delivery of service to clients. We look forward to working with Mark as he takes on these important roles.
I am also delighted to announce that Lorna Conn has been appointed CFO of the Cpl Group. The Board and management look forward to working with Lorna, who will join us on 2 October 2017.
Earnings per Share, Proposed Dividend & Dividend Policy
Cpl has delivered earnings per share in the twelve months to 30 June 2017 of 43.7 cent. The Group also has a progressive dividend policy which reflects underlying earnings growth and our continued financial strength.
The Board is recommending a final dividend of 5.75 cent per share. This will bring the total dividend for the year to 11.5 cent per share. The dividend, if approved by the shareholders, will be payable on 6 November 2017 to shareholders on the Company's register at the close of business on the record date of 13 October 2017.
Outlook
Economic indicators, including employment trends, are generally positive in our principal markets. Our industry is highly competitive, and our continued growth remains sensitive to events affecting the wider European and global economies. As the UK moves towards its planned departure from the EU, the terms of which remain unclear, "Brexit" continues to give rise to uncertainty in our main markets. We will continue to monitor these developments closely, and assess and respond to their implications for our business.
Based on current trends and circumstances in our main markets we expect to deliver further growth in our business during the financial year to 30 June 2018.

Chief Executive Review
In the financial year to 30 June 2017 Cpl delivered growth in revenues, gross profit and profit before tax. Our revenue increased by 5% to EUR455.2 million, gross profit and profit before tax increased by 3% to EUR71.8 million and EUR15.8 million respectively. Our net cash balance is EUR33.6 million post our investment of EUR10 million in the acquisition of RIG Healthcare in June 2017. Growth in our temporary placement and managed services business was strong and outpaced permanent placement which was impacted by regulatory changes to international nurse recruitment in the UK.
Financial Highlights
The Group increased its revenue by 5% to EUR455.2 million in the year to 30 June 2017 (2016: EUR433.4 million). Gross profit increased by 3% to EUR71.8 million (2016: EUR70.1 million). The Group's gross margin was 15.8% (2016: 16.2%). Profit before tax was EUR15.8 million (2016: EUR15.4 million) and our diluted earnings per share was 43.7 cent (2016: 43.9 cent).
Our operating expenses were EUR56.4 million, 3.1% higher than last year. Our conversion rate of gross profit to profit before tax was 22.0% (2016: 22.0%).
Most of our cost base is people related and the other main components are offices and investment in our technology infrastructure. We continued to invest in technology to improve productivity and ensure ease of use for our clients and candidates. One of our key projects during the year was the investment in a web and mobile based App that harnesses the latest in smartphone technology for booking and managing temporary staff. The App manages all aspects of front and back office including: communications, bookings, scheduling, timesheet management, accounting and compliance. It is designed to drive efficiencies, increase recruiter productivity and improve service levels to our candidates and clients.
Our balance sheet remains strong with net assets of EUR103.7 million (2016: EUR93.7 million). Goodwill and intangible assets increased by EUR8.5 million to EUR26.0 million, reflecting the acquisition of RIG Healthcare Group on 6 June 2017. Trade and other receivables stood at EUR 99.7 million, up from EUR90.3 million at 30 June 2016. From a financial perspective managing working capital is key to our success. Cash flow in the year was strong with EUR10.1 million of net cash generated prior to the RIG acquisition, to bring the closing net cash balance to EUR33.6 million.
The interim dividend paid was 5.75 cent per share. The Board is recommending a final dividend of 5.75 cent per share for the year to 30 June 2017, resulting in a total dividend per share for the year of 11.5 cent, a 5% increase from the prior year.
Operations Review
Cpl's capability spans the entire employment lifecycle and includes permanent, temporary and contract recruitment, workforce management, training, outsourcing and outplacement. We have a diverse range of clients from market leading multinationals to small and medium enterprises.
Cpl is a recognised leader in permanent and temporary recruitment. Our business is based on matching the capabilities of our candidates to our clients in a rapidly changing marketplace. We operate through distinct specialist brands in a wide range of sectors including technology, finance and legal, healthcare, pharmaceutical, life science, sales, engineering, HR, light industrial and office administration.
Our managed services and outsourcing business assumes accountability for selected business process on behalf of clients. Cpl brings value to our clients by creating measurable improvements and cost savings in areas that are viewed as non-core to our clients. Our main service offerings are: Contact Centre Outsourcing, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and HR Consulting Services (which includes outplacement). These projects are normally contracted for a number of years. During the year we delivered managed services/outsourced projects to over 15 clients including leading organisations in the financial services, technology and pharmaceutical sectors.
Key Performance Indicators 2017 2016 Gross margin 15.8% 16.2% Operating margin 3.4% 3.6% Conversion Ratio Operating Profit 21.4% 22.0% Profit before tax 22.0% 22.0% Permanent fees as % of the total gross profit 36.3% 41.5% Temporary fees as % of the total gross profit 63.7% 58.5% Contractor and temporary staff headcount at the year-end 11,504 11,367 Average number of recruiters during the year (incl. RIG) 547 503 ------------------------------ -------- --------
Due to the change in business mix between permanent and temporary fees our gross margin in the year to June 2017 was 15.8%, a reduction of 40 basis points. Most of our growth occurred in our temporary business. Our permanent placement business which generates 100% gross margin represented 36.3% of total gross profit whereas in the year to June 2016 it was 41.5% of total gross profit.
We improved our margin on temporary business to 10.7% (2016: 10.1%)
Our operating margin was 3.4%, a year on year reduction driven mainly by the change in business mix, increase in staff numbers, investment in offices and technology infrastructure. Taking a long-term view of the business, we will continue to invest in talent and technology. We expect in the coming year to see an improvement in our operating margin through an increase in productivity due to the investment already made.
Permanent
Most of our permanent placement work is undertaken on a contingent basis, which means we only generate revenue when the candidate is placed in a role. If the time to successfully place candidates is extended this impacts our cost base and recruiter productivity.
Last year I highlighted that international nurse recruitment in the UK was undergoing significant change driven mainly by changes in regulation and concerns about "Brexit". This impacted our performance in permanent placements in the year to June 2017. While other divisions such as technology, pharma and financial services performed well, it was not sufficient to compensate for the reduction in international nurse recruitment in the UK.
Permanent fee revenue decreased by 10.3% to EUR26.1 million (2016: EUR29.1 million).
Looking ahead to 2018, we believe international nurse recruitment is stabilising and the demand for talent in the technology, pharma and financial services sector remains strong.
Temporary
Our temporary and contracting business provides clients with qualified, skilled people on short and long terms assignments. Demand for temporary and contract staff remained strong during the year and we grew net fee income by 11.7% to EUR45.7 million (2016: EUR41.0 million). We were able to build on the improvement in temporary and contract staffing margins that we experienced last year. Margin in year to 30 June 2017 was 10.7% (2016: 10.1%).
We finished the year with 11,504 temporary staff and contractors working on behalf of Cpl on client projects. Our clients recognise the value that temporary and contract staffing can bring to managing total labour costs. It adds a variable cost component to a company's other-wise fixed labour costs. At the same time many of our candidates are also seeking more flexibility. Highly skilled professionals particularly in ICT and engineering are choosing to work on a project basis.
Driven by this increasing demand from our clients and candidates for greater flexibility, temporary and contract staffing continues to represent an area of significant growth opportunity.
People
Our talented and experienced team are committed to our core values of accountability, respect, customer focus, effective communication and empowerment. In 2017, Cpl Resources plc was recognized in the Best Places to Work program's large category. This recognition is important for the Group as attracting and retaining the best talent in the industry is key to operational excellence which delivers real value to our clients.
Management Team & Appointment of CFO
Our management team continues to evolve. I am delighted Mark Buckley has taken on the role of COO and deputy CEO. We are also delighted to welcome Lorna Conn to the team. Lorna has been appointed as our CFO of the Group. Lorna trained as a Chartered Accountant with Deloitte and has held a number of senior finance roles both in Ireland and the US. Her most recent role was Finance Director at ISS Ireland, part of the ISS Group Plc. Lorna joins us on 2 October 2017.
I would like to thank our talented and dedicated colleagues for their commitment to delivering for our candidates and clients. I am delighted to welcome those people who joined Cpl during the year and I also want to thank our loyal customers for their partnership and support during the year.
Strategy
Our strategy to develop a balanced business mix and therefore avoid overdependence on any one service, sector, or geography remains unchanged. We generated 63.7% of our net fee income from temporary recruitment and 36.3% from permanent recruitment.
We continued to expand organically in new markets. We opened offices in Munich and Boston during the year. Our business outside Ireland now accounts for approximately 25% of the Groups net fee income. We have over 40 offices in 10 countries. These offices provide Cpl clients with the international reach they need especially in resourcing local talent.
Ardlinn, our executive search brand, which we launched in July 2016 to support our clients recruiting top level C-suite talent has had a very successful first year and is profitable. They have completed a number of international assignments, recruiting high impact leadership talent for clients. We will build on this success by expanding the team in the coming year.
Now more than ever CEO's and boards are acutely aware of the critical role key leadership talent plays in building competitive advantage. We believe Ardlinn is well positioned to source and attract the right leadership talent for our clients.
Acquisition
We focus mainly on organic expansion, while using selective acquisitions to build platforms in new sectors or markets with good long-term potential. We are keen to deepen our presence in high value sectors such as Healthcare which is labour intensive and experiencing skills shortages. The acquisition of RIG Healthcare is a further step in extending the Group's footprint in the healthcare sector.
In June 2017, we acquired a 91% shareholding in RIG Healthcare Group (RIG) for a cash consideration of EUR9.5m. RIG Healthcare Group, the trading name of RIG Locums Limited and RIG Medical Recruit Limited, is a UK specialist healthcare recruiter with a focus on market niches within the Locum Doctors and Allied Health Professions. They have five offices across the UK.
RIG supplies qualified medical professionals to the UK's National Health Service (NHS) with a particular focus on radiography, occupational therapy, pharmacy and physiotherapy. Healthcare recruitment, staffing and training has long been one of Cpl's most important sectors in Ireland and the UK. RIG will complement the Company's existing portfolio of healthcare brands which include: Cpl Healthcare, Kate Cowhig International Healthcare Recruitment, Servisource Healthcare and Private Homecare. The acquisition is Cpl's first entry into the locum doctor market and enhances the Company's operating presence in the UK, following the acquisition of Clinical Professionals in September 2015.
Outlook
As we enter the year to June 2018, market conditions across the sectors in which we operate are mixed. Economic trends are favourable with strong employment growth in Ireland and the Eurozone. Unemployment in Ireland is expected fall to less than 6% by year end and unemployment in the Eurozone is expected to fall below 9%. Despite this there are considerable risks on the horizon. In Cpl, we are mindful of the uncertainty that 'Brexit' creates in our core markets and we are closely monitoring the potential impacts both positive and negative of 'Brexit' on our business. On the positive we have seen an increase in enquiries from companies looking to establish in Ireland and increased demand for insurance financial services and fintech talent. On the negative, there are threats to employment in sectors exposed to the UK.
From a longer-term point of view, we operate in attractive markets with a strong business model and significant global clients. All indicators suggest that the labour market is tightening and there is a widening skills gap in a number of specialist skills areas. Our key focus is on supporting clients in sectors and occupations where these skills gaps occur. This places higher value on our services and presents us with growth opportunities.
We will continue to invest wisely to capture opportunities for growth. Cpl has a strong balance sheet with net assets of EUR103.7 million generated over the 27 years of continuous profitability. We believe our balance sheet and strong cash flows give us the resources to invest in the growth and expansion of our business while also returning capital to shareholders.

Proposed Tender Offer
The Board is proposing to return up to EUR25 million of surplus capital to shareholders through the Tender Offer. As was the case in the Group's previous return of value to shareholders in 2011, the return of capital will be made by way of a fixed price tender offer structure and tenders will only be accepted at the Tender Price of EUR6.75 per Ordinary Share.
Background and reasons for the proposed Tender Offer
In the year to 30 June 2017, the Group reported strong operational and financial performance. The Group has continued to generate positive cash flow and as a result has built up a net cash position of EUR33.6 million as at 30 June 2017. In the absence of the proposed Tender Offer the Board would expect the Group's positive cash position to continue to increase further.
To date in 2017, the Board has considered a range of strategic and financial options to enhance shareholder value. The Board, in consultation with its advisers, reviewed a number of factors including:
-- the Group's current net cash position; -- the Group's ongoing earnings and cash flow generation;
-- the relatively low interest income capable of being generated by the Group's current cash balance; and
-- acquisition and investment opportunities.
Following this review, the Board (with the exception of Anne Heraty and Paul Carroll, who absented themselves from deliberations relating to the proposed Tender Offer) unanimously determined that a return of surplus capital is in the interests of shareholders. The Board believes that a return of capital in the amount proposed represents the most effective use of those shareholder funds and that the continued strength of the Group's balance sheet, and its cashflow generation after the return of those funds, will be sufficient to pursue the Group's stated growth objectives.
The Board concluded, following consultation with the Group's advisers, that a return of up to EUR25 million of capital by way of the Tender Offer is in the interests of the Group and its shareholders as it provides shareholders with both choice (that is, the discretion to participate) and certainty of value.
An independent committee of the Board, comprised of independent non-executive directors Breffni Byrne, Oliver Tattan and Colm Long, was formed to consider and settle the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, including the Tender Price.
Summary of the Tender Offer
The Tender Offer will be made to shareholders at the Tender Price of EUR6.75 per Ordinary Share. The Tender Price represents a premium of 15.2 per cent. to the closing price of EUR5.86 per Ordinary Share on 6 September 2017, (being the latest practicable date prior to this announcement) and represents a premium of 14.1 per cent. to the volume weighted average price over the three months to 6 September 2017.
The Group intends to purchase, in aggregate, up to 3,703,703 Ordinary Shares from shareholders at the Tender Price. These Ordinary Shares will subsequently be cancelled by the Group. Each shareholder will be entitled to sell up to approximately 12 per cent. of their shareholding, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Ordinary Shares (the "Guaranteed Entitlement"). Shareholders will also have an opportunity to sell more than their Guaranteed Entitlement to the extent that other shareholders tender less than their Guaranteed Entitlement. To the extent that any Shareholders have tendered less than their Guaranteed Entitlement, surplus tenders will be accepted in proportion to the number of additional Ordinary Shares tendered so that the total number of Ordinary Shares purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer does not exceed 3,703,703.
The Board reserves the right at any time prior to the anticipated completion of the Tender Offer and having regard to prevailing market conditions, to (i) vary the Tender Price; and/or (ii) change the maximum number of Ordinary Shares that can be tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer; and/or (iii) not proceed with the Tender Offer; if they conclude that the implementation of the Tender Offer at the Tender Price is no longer in the interests of the Group and/or its shareholders.
Each of the Directors has irrevocably committed to participate in the Tender Offer on a pro rata basis.
Benefits of a Tender Offer
The benefits of the Tender Offer, compared to other available options for a return of capital to shareholders, include that the Tender Offer:
a) provides those shareholders who wish to sell Ordinary Shares with the opportunity to do so;
b) enables those shareholders who do not wish to receive capital at this time to maintain their full investment in the Group;
c) is available to all shareholders (other than shareholders who may be resident in certain prohibited territories) regardless of the size of their shareholdings;
d) ensures equal opportunity to all shareholders to participate in the return of capital by offering the Guaranteed Entitlement to all shareholders; and
e) will have a positive impact on both the Group's earnings per share and dividend per share as all shares acquired under the Tender Offer will be cancelled.
Shareholder Approval
The Tender Offer will be subject to approval by Cpl's shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM"). A notice of EGM together with additional explanatory documentation setting out further detail with regard to the background to and reasons for, the terms and conditions of and instructions on how to participate in, the Tender Offer will be sent to shareholders in due course.
