Solid performance
-- H1 2016 results benefitted from geographic diversity; strong US performance offsetting weaker European market conditions
-- Adjusted EBITDA of US$7.5m (2015: $8.2m) and $8.0m on a constant currency basis (2015: US$8.0m), in line with 13 July trading update guidance of not less than $7.5m
-- Total Group Gross Profit margin down 3.0ppts principally due to business mix. With the growth in Air revenues, particularly in US Air, a greater proportion of the group's gross profits have been derived from the relatively lower margin Air services.
-- Adjusted PBT and Adjusted EPS benefitted from a material foreign exchange credit of US$4.6m in H1 (2015: $0.1m)
-- Adjusted EPS reduction on a constant currency basis principally due to a provisional tax charge of $1m (2015: $nil)
-- Aircraft under management up 10% to 153 (2015: 139)
Outlook: Stronger second half performance expected with full year broadly in line with management expectations
-- Strong US trading performance expected to continue in H2 -- EU Air benefitting from cost reductions implemented during the period
-- EU Ground traditionally stronger H2 supported by longer term contracts within a challenging European market
-- Further progress expected in MENA with a promising contract pipeline
-- The Board expects a stronger second half performance and full year results to be broadly in line with management expectations
Strategic ambition to double the scale of the business
-- Strong organic growth potential across the group's services and geographies -- Recent acquisitions being successfully integrated -- Further acquisition opportunities identified in fragmented global market place -- Growth strategy in place to double the scale of the business over the next two years
Marwan Khalek, Chief Executive Officer commented:
"The fundamental strength of our business, which is underpinned by contracted revenues and geographical diversity, together with the proven industry experience of our management team and the expertise and commitment of our staff, have ensured that once again we have delivered a solid performance, despite the challenging conditions that we continue to experience in our European market. This illustrates the resilience of our business model.
Our growth strategy is on track. Organic growth will continue apace through the expansion of services and geographies and we have a clearly defined path to continue our acquisitive growth in a highly fragmented global business aviation services sector. Our strategic goal is to double the scale of the business over the next two years."

Business Review
US Business
USD thousands June 2016 June 2015 Change Air Ground Air Ground Air Ground Total Group Revenue 109,805 6,180 76,217 6,170 44.1% 0.2% Total Group Gross Profit 9,034 2,718 6,642 2,626 36.0% 3.5% Gross Profit % 8.2% 44.0% 8.7% 42.6% (0.5ppt) 1.4ppt Total Group Adjusted EBITDA(1) 2,583 999 1,547 1,351 67.0% (26.1%) Adjusted EBITDA % 2.4% 16.2% 2.0% 21.9% 0.4ppt (5.7ppt) 1 - excludes intra group branding fees as described in the basis of preparation within the financial revenue section --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The US operations have continued to perform strongly in H1 delivering increased revenues and gross profits compared to the same period in 2015.
Air
US Air performed particularly strongly, achieving Total Group Revenues of $109.8m (2015: $76.2m) and Total Group Gross Profit of $9.0m (2015: $6.6m) to deliver organic growth of 44% and 36% respectively. The strength of this performance reflects a high contract win rate in our core management business, resulting in a number of significant contract additions during the period; in addition, the growth in our aircraft under management from our Wheels Up contract continued to progress well. US Air had 105 aircraft under management as at June 2016, up from 78 in June 2015, an increase of 35% and up from 93 in December 2015, an increase of 13%.
Tender activity within our core management business remains high. Subject to the successful outcome of these tenders, together with the contracted growth under the Wheels Up contract, a further 30 aircraft, at a minimum, are expected to be added to the fleet between now and the end of 2018.
US Air Total Group Adjusted EBITDA was $2.6m (2015: $1.5m), an increase of 67.0%, with the Adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.4% (2015: 2.0%). The Adjusted EBITDA margin has been depressed as a result of up-front investment, principally in infrastructure and IT systems, to support the current and expected rapid growth in aircraft numbers.. With these costs now expensed and these infrastructure projects nearing completion, the US Air Adjusted EBITDA margins are expected to increase towards the business model target of 5.0% over the next two years.
Ground
US Ground delivered a solid financial performance during the period whilst materially expanding its operational capabilities . Three new bases were added in Bedford, White Plains and Chicago, taking the total number of bases to nine. This network of hubs provides US Ground with national coverage supported by its mobile units, which now total 30, with a further 10 being added during the period. US Ground can now service its customers' line maintenance requirements on a national basis. The benefits of this expanded capability is expected to be reflected in US Ground's performance during H2 2016 and beyond.
US Business Outlook
The outlook for the US business is positive in H2 2016 for both US Air and US Ground, with further contracted aircraft arriving in H2, the benefits of scale in US Air beginning to materialise, and a full contribution from the commencement of new line maintenance bases.
European Business
Europe is the only division in the group that is affected by any material foreign exchange movements, primarily between UK GBP to USD. The commentary below is based on constant currency performance unless otherwise stated.
USD thousands June 2016 June 2015 Change Constant Currency Change Air Ground Air Ground Air Ground Air Ground Total Group Revenue 55,630 18,601 69,994 18,867 (20.5%) (1.4%) (15.2%) 6.7% Total Group Gross Profit 4,209 9,930 7,519 11,474 (44.0%) (13.5%) (41.9%) (7.5%) Gross Profit % 7.6% 53.4% 10.7% 60.8% (3.1ppt) (7.4ppt) (3.4ppt) (8.0ppt) Total Group Adjusted EBITDA 946 4,039 1,166 6,698 (18.9%) (39.7%) 11.7% (34.2%) Adjusted EBITDA % 1.7% 21.7% 1.7% 35.4% 0.0ppt (13.8ppt) 0.5ppt (13.6ppt) --------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- --------- ---------- --------- ----------
Europe has delivered a satisfactory performance in H1, given the challenging trading conditions. This is due to three factors: the bedding-in of optimisation initiatives started at the tail end of last year; the decisive actions by management to right-size the operational infrastructure of the business during the period; and the stability provided by Gama Aviation's longer term contracts.
Air
Europe Air experienced a challenging period with Total Group Revenue and Total Group Gross Profit declining by 15.2% and 41.9% respectively. These declines were the result of the decision to terminate a number of underperforming legacy contracts, particularly those operated in Africa but serviced from Europe. Whilst some of these contracts delivered relatively good Gross Profit margins they also consumed a disproportionate amount of management time and overhead as well as presenting an unattractive credit risk profile.
Consequently, and despite the decline in Revenue and Gross Profit, Europe Air Total Group Adjusted EBITDA was up by 11.7%, which represents a 0.5ppt improvement in margin. By improving the quality of the revenue stream, whilst taking early and decisive actions to reduce costs, Europe Air is back on a path of delivering a steady improvement in EBITDA margins towards the business model target of 5% as revenues recover and grow again.
Ground
Europe Ground Total Group Revenues increased by 6.7% whilst Total Group Gross Profits decreased by 7.5% with the Gross Profit margin down 8.0ppts. The revenue growth results from new business wins at our Farnborough and Fairoaks maintenance facilities. Whilst the decline in the Gross Profit margin reflected a particularly strong performance in the comparative period due to some ad-hoc high margin design work, the margins in the current period have returned to more typical, sustainable levels of around 50%.
Europe Ground's business performance has typically been significantly weighted towards H2. 2016 is expected to demonstrate a similar profile, underpinned by longer term government contracts. In these more challenging markets, the timing of discretionary spend on modifications, improvements and refurbishments works has been harder to predict with a tendency for such projects to be deferred or put on hold pending an improvement in sentiment and confidence. Such uncertainty is expected to persist through H2.
European acquisitions
The acquisitions of Aviation Beauport within Europe Ground and Flyertech Limited in Europe Air are being integrated successfully. Revenue synergies are beginning to be generated from these acquisitions and further benefit is expected during H2.
European business outlook
Whilst market conditions remain challenging for both Air and Ground in Europe, especially in discretionary maintenance, performance in H2 is expected to benefit from the stability of longer term contracts in Ground and the cost reductions and improvement initiatives in Air supporting a significant increase in H2 performance. This is consistent with prior years.
Middle East business
USD thousands June 2016 June 2015 Change Air Ground Air Ground Air Ground Total Group Revenue 8,889 1,945 10,473 1,390 (15.1%) 40.0% Total Group Gross Profit 715 773 957 543 (25.3%) 42.4% Gross Profit % 8.0% 39.7% 9.1% 39.1% (1.1ppt) 0.6ppt Total Group Adjusted EBITDA (19) 67 (229) (313) 91.7% 121.4% Adjusted EBITDA % (0.2%) 3.4% (2.2%) (22.5%) 2.0ppt 25.9ppt ------------------ ------- ------- ------- -------- --------- --------
Middle East performed well in H1 achieving break even at the Adjusted EBITDA level (2015, ($0.5m loss). Middle East Air has a number of promising managed aircraft tenders under way and the Middle East Ground business continues to generate a positive EBITDA contribution with new parking and hangarage contracts expected to contribute in H2.
Asia business
USD thousands June June 2015 Change 2016 Air Air Air Total Group Revenue 8,539 1,426 498.8% Total Group Gross Profit 223 152 46.7% Gross Profit % 2.6% 10.7% (8.1ppt) Total Group Adjusted EBITDA - (171) 100% Adjusted EBITDA - (12.0%) - % ------------------ ------ ---------- ---------
The Air division within the Asia business continues to grow albeit from a start-up position. The June 2016 revenue had the benefit of a full 6 months' trading versus only one month's trading in the prior year. As expected in the start-up phase of this business, the gross profits will fluctuate. There remains a promising pipeline of managed aircraft deals with the intention to establish Ground services in the future. The business is expected to steadily build towards making a positive contribution to the Group.
The Fleet
The aircraft fleet increased 10% in the period to 153 as at 30 June 2016 (2015: 139). The fleet comprises aircraft types from all the major manufacturers with a bias toward larger, more capable aircraft. The scale of the global fleet size has a positive influence on contract value and ancillary service volumes such as fuel, training and insurance; allowing for increased leverage during negotiations with suppliers.
We continue to review the managed aircraft contracts across the globe for contract quality within the group exiting those contracts that no longer represent the appropriate level of commercial value, replacing them with customers where we can deliver the margin as a result of enhanced service offerings.
Group Outlook: Stronger second half performance expected with full year broadly in line with management expectations
Further growth is expected in US and Middle East in H2. Whilst in Europe, despite challenging market conditions especially in discretionary modifications and improvements, the stability of longer term contracts in Ground and the cost reductions in Air are expected to support a typically stronger H2 performance. Accordingly, the Board expects the full year to be broadly in line with its expectations.
Strategic Goal: doubling the scale of the business over the next two years
The Global Business Aviation Services market remains highly fragmented thus creating a significant and tangible consolidation opportunities. The company will continue to seek to capitalise on these opportunities and management has set a clear strategic goal to double the scale of the business over the next 2 years.
It will do so by continuing its dual track strategy of organic and acquisitive growth. Organic growth will continue to be delivered through the expansion of services and geographies. Acquisitive growth will be delivered through the acquisition of strategic targets in a clearly defined matrix. Gama Aviation's leading market position, its presence, its scale, its core competencies, its reputation and its healthy balance sheet together provide a strong operational and financial platform to execute on this strategy, and deliver its strategic objectives.
Financial Review
Basis of presentation of financials
In order to aid understanding of Gama Aviation's overall group and business performance, the financial highlights and the analysis by region are shown on a Total Group basis (for revenue, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA) and therefore reflect 100% of the performance of associates. Gama Aviation typically receives a fee in return for allowing its associates the use of the Gama Aviation brand. Accordingly, such branding fees are excluded from the EBITDA on this Total Group basis but are recognised within Gama Aviation's statutory adjusted EBITDA.
Under IFRS statutory accounting rules, the trading results of associates cannot be consolidated into Gama Aviation Plc's statutory group revenue, gross profit or adjusted EBITDA and are instead shown as a single line on the profit and loss account as a net share of its equity investment.
Revenue and Gross Profit
Total group revenue on a constant currency basis was up 16.3% to $213.4 (2015: $183.4m), yielding a gross profit of $28.5m (2015: $30.1m), a decrease of 5%. This margin drop is a reflection of the increasing proportion of lower margin US Air revenue as a percentage of the total group revenue outstripping the growth in revenues in the higher margin Ground business.
Statutory revenue has decreased by 11.7% to $101.6m (2015: $115.1m). This reduction is primarily as a result of the ending of certain underperforming contracts in the EU Air division.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA generated on a constant currency basis was flat at $8.0m (2015: $8.0m).

Adjusted EBITDA is stated before exceptional costs of $1.3m, details of which are included in note 3, discontinued operations of $0.1m, which are the operating losses incurred on the group's owned aircraft that are deployed on ad-hoc charter only and also before depreciation and amortisation of approximately $1.9m (2015: $2.0m).
The Branding Fee adjustment results from the variance between the branding fees paid to the group by its associates and the associates' independent performance on a standalone basis excluding branding fees.
Depreciation and Amortisation
Depreciation for the period was $1.1m (2015: $1.0m). Amortisation for the period was $0.8m (2015: $1.0m)
PBT and EPS
The Adjusted PBT and Adjusted EPS both benefitted from a material foreign exchange credit of $4.6m in H1 (2015: $0.1m). EPS includes a provisional tax charge of $1.0m (2015: $nil).
Taxation
We expect a tax rate of between 10-15% for FY 2016 with a number of brought forward losses in the Europe and US regions.
Forex
Within our global services business, we operate and manage geographically mobile assets. As a result, Gama Aviation is exposed to a number of currencies. With the exception of the EU, the rest of the regions trade in USD which is the same as our Group reporting currency.
The material currency exposure for Gama Aviation is within our EU operations in UK GBP to USD. Gama Aviation experiences both realized and unrealized trading gains/losses on these exchange rate movements. These impact our EBITDA. As the Pound weakens against the dollar, the UK businesses suffer both trading and translational losses.
However, Gama Aviation presently has a natural hedge within PBT. The intercompany loan structure within the group works in the opposite direction. As the UK GBP weakens against the USD, the group experiences foreign exchange gains within finance income.
Given the volatility of the GBP to USD exchange rates in the days before the H1 reporting date, Gama Aviation experienced sizeable losses within its Adjusted EBITDA and material gains within its finance income.
The use of the constant currency reporting helps to illustrate the underlying performance of the business in the absence of these foreign exchange movements.
An independent foreign exchange review has been carried out on the Gama Aviation business identifying a few small improvements that can be made and these are being put in place. The review concluded that Gama Aviation is managing its foreign exchange exposure in an appropriate way given the size of the business.
Cash
Cash increased by $1m to $9.5m, (Dec 2015: $8.5m).
Operating cash inflow before movements in working capital increased 86% to $4.9m (June 2015: $2.6) and the working capital movement improved by 28.0% to ($5.9m), (2015 ($8.2m)). The Group is actively engaged in improving its working capital management.
Net Debt as at 30 June was ($13m) (June 2015: $0.2m) (Dec 15: ($9m)) as the Group drew on some debt to fund the recent acquisitions in March and June.
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 1.8x as at 30 June (June 2015: $nil).

The accompanying notes are an integral part of this interim financial information.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM STATEMENTS
1. Basis of preparation
Gama Aviation Plc, formerly Hangar8 Plc, (the "Company") is a company domiciled in England. The basis of preparation of this financial information is consistent with the basis that will be adopted for the full year accounts which will be prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union.
While the financial figures included in this half-yearly report have been computed in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim periods, this half-yearly report does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as that term is defined in IAS 34.
This interim financial information has neither been audited nor reviewed pursuant to guidance issued by the Auditing Practices Board and the financial information contained in this report does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.
2. Accounting policies
The condensed consolidated interim financial information has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with those set out in the historical financial document within the admission document except as set out below. These accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in this Financial Information.
Critical accounting estimates & judgements and principal risks & uncertainties
There have been no changes to any of the Group's critical accounting estimates and judgements of its principal financial risks with the exception of the accounting estimates and judgements on the fair value of intangibles under IFRS 3.
Going concern
The Directors are of the opinion that as at 30 June 2016, the Group and Company's liquidity and capital resources are adequate to deliver the current strategic objectives and business plan and that both the Group and the Company remain a going concern.
3. Exceptional Items and discontinued operations
Operating profit is stated after exceptional items and before discontinued activities.
Exceptional items relate to the transaction costs incurred in the current period of $0.5m (2015: $3.5m) and integration and business re-organisation costs of $0.8m (2015: $2m).
The Discontinued activities relate to the losses generated by the owned aircraft within the group that are held for sale as part of the group strategy to exit the business model of owned aircraft that are deployed solely for the purposes of ad-hoc charter.
4. Taxation
The tax charge for the half year is calculated on the basis of the estimated full year effective tax rate and therefore an estimated corporation tax charge for the period of $1.0m (2015: $Nil).
