ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEARED 31st JULY 2016
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
ACCOUNTS
Headline Group profit for the year before tax, including an unrealised surplus in revalued property as required by the International Financial Reporting Standards was GBP3,752,000 compared with GBP3,544,000 last year. If the impact of revalued property is disregarded, then a truer reflection of Group performance emerges in the form of an underlying profit before tax for the year under review of GBP3,616,000 (including GBP186,000 profit from property sales) which compares with the figure for underlying profit last year of GBP3,755,000 (including GBP1,318,000 profit from property sales and joint venture property sales).
The Board is recommending a Final Dividend of 2.15p nett making a total for the year of 3.07p nett which compares with 3.02p nett for the previous year. After waivers by members holding over 50% of the shares, the Final Dividend will cost the Company no more than GBP421,000.
TRADING ACTIVITIES
Group construction activities carried out including private residential sales increased by 42%. Disregarding private residential sales Group construction activities increased by 23%. Own work capitalised increased by 125%. Group revenue increased by 39% and headline Group profit before tax increased by 6%. Underlying Group profit before tax excluding the unrealised surplus in revalued property decreased by 4%.
Turnover in contracting was more than last year and the loss was reduced. As forecast private residential sales were more than the previous year. Sales and profit in precast concrete manufacture increased.
The two large mixed social housing and private residential developments at Seafield Street and Pilton Drive, Edinburgh, continue to make satisfactory progress. A third phase of social housing at Pilton Drive and a further social housing contract at Fleming Place (adjacent to Seafield Street) have commenced.
Occupancy levels at our industrial estates continue to be satisfactory. A joint venture industrial development at Gartcosh near Glasgow is contemplated. Although interest in our commercial office premises has improved, take up of voids is still slow.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
Work in hand in contracting is slightly less than at this time last year and there is little prospect of more work in the short term. Accordingly, turnover in this sector will be down on last year. Prices remain competitive.
Private residential sales will be less than last year. It is by no means certain that current property valuation levels will be maintained at the end of the current financial year.
At this early stage it is difficult to make an informed forecast of the outcome for the current year. However, bearing in mind the foregoing circumstances and that the reduced turnover will impair the recovery of fixed overhead costs, it seems unlikely that the profit for the current year will match last year's profit.
