Chairman's Statement
The Group has again delivered record interim results with further growth in both revenue and operating profit. The Group continues to see positive results from its strategy of focusing on providing essential engineering services into regulated markets where long-term maintenance and renewal requirements are funded mainly through operational expenditure budgets.
Results
Group operating profit, prior to amortisation charges, increased by 7% to GBP10.5m (2015: GBP9.8m), on revenue up 5% to GBP265.1m (2015: GBP252.1m). Operating margin measured on this basis increased to 4.0% (2015: 3.9%) with earnings per share prior to amortisation charges increasing by 9% to 13.31p (2015: 12.24p). Profit before income tax increased by 14% to GBP8.8m (2015: GBP7.7m).
In Engineering Services, revenue grew by 6% to GBP221.3m (2015: GBP209.8m), representing 84% (2015: 83%) of Group revenue with operating profit prior to amortisation charges increasing by 8% to GBP10.4m (2015: GBP9.7m), giving an improved operating margin of 4.7% (2015: 4.6%).
In Specialist Building, the Board continues to focus on contract selectivity and risk management. The business, which operates mainly in the High Quality Residential market in London and the Home Counties, delivered an operating profit of GBP1.1m (2015: GBP1.0m) on revenue of GBP44.4m (2015: GBP42.5m).
Dividend
In line with its progressive policy, the Board is increasing the interim dividend by 18% to 2.65p (2015: 2.25p) per share which will be paid on 4 July 2016 to shareholders on the register at 3 June 2016.
Order book
The Group's order book at 31 March 2016 increased by 9% to GBP515m (2015: GBP471m). The Group's expected revenue for the second half of the financial year is fully secured.
Cash
At 31 March 2016, the Group had net debt of GBP4.2m (2015: GBP13.9m). The Board expects to report a net cash position at the end of the financial year.
Board changes
In March 2016, Brian May announced his retirement as Chief Executive, effective 30 September 2016. Paul Scott, who is currently Director of Engineering Services, will succeed Brian. Paul joined the Board in 2014 and was previously Managing Director of the Group's principal nuclear business, Shepley Engineers Limited.
The Board was strengthened further by the appointment on 31 March 2016 of Andries Liebenberg, Managing Director of the Group's largest business, Amco Rail, which is a leading supplier of infrastructure services to Network Rail.
Outlook
The Group continues to make good progress as a leading provider of engineering support services in the UK's Energy, Environmental and Infrastructure markets. The requirement for long-term maintenance and renewal activities drives programmes of non-discretionary spending in our target markets, often over several years, which provides good visibility of future workload with committed funding.
It remains the Board's strategy to grow our Engineering Services business, both organically and through selective earnings enhancing acquisitions. The growth in our order book and good cash generation gives the Board confidence that the Group will deliver strong results for the full financial year. Renew remains on track to achieve its target of a 4.5% Group operating margin for the year ending 30 September 2017.

Chief Executive's Review
As a leading provider of engineering services supporting critical UK infrastructure, Renew operates in the Energy, Environmental and Infrastructure markets. These mainly regulated markets, which include nuclear and fossil power generation sites, water and gas pipelines and the rail and wireless telecoms networks, have high barriers to entry.
Engineering Services
During the first half of the financial year, Engineering Services revenue grew by 6% to GBP221.3m (2015: GBP209.8m) and accounted for 84% (2015: 83%) of Group revenue. When non-recurring revenue recorded in 2015 is excluded, organic growth was 12%. Operating profit prior to amortisation increased by 8% to GBP10.4m (2015: GBP9.7m) with an operating margin of 4.7% (2015: 4.6%) with further improvement expected in the second half of the financial year.
At 31 March 2016, the Engineering Services order book was GBP416m (2015: GBP382m), an increase of 9%.
Energy
Renew provides integrated engineering support to assets in the nuclear, fossil, gas and renewable energy markets.
In Nuclear, the Group is active on 14 of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority's 17 nuclear licenced sites across the UK. The majority of our work is undertaken at the Sellafield nuclear site in Cumbria where we have operated for almost 70 years and are the largest mechanical and electrical contractor on site. Our work is delivered through 11 framework agreements focusing on the long-term care and maintenance of operational plant in the waste treatment or reprocessing, decommissioning, demolition and clean up operations.
We continue to develop our range of integrated engineering services and recently expanded our capabilities with the acquisition of Nuclear Decontamination Services Limited, which operates at Sellafield as well as other UK nuclear sites.
The strength of our relationships at Sellafield is evidenced by our recent appointment to the major 10-year Decommissioning Delivery Partnership Framework which has an estimated value of GBP500m over the term. This framework is an essential part of Sellafield's long-term decommissioning strategy and includes provision for additional spend up to GBP1.5bn.
We continue to see good volumes of work on the established Multi Discipline Site Works Framework which runs to 2017 and is aligned to the largest scope of work at the Sellafield site, Production Operations Support. Other frameworks include the Bulk Sludge Retrieval programme, Site Remediation & Decommissioning Projects and the Bundling Spares Framework.
Working nationally for Magnox, the UK's largest nuclear decommissioning company, we operate as sole provider on the GBP30m E, C&I framework, recently completing the first year of this 4-year framework. Elsewhere, we have increased our workload with Westinghouse at Springfields where we have operated for over 20 years and we continue to be engaged in outage support at the Heysham and Hartlepool reactor sites.
In gas, our addressable market on the 30/30 Iron Mains Replacement Programme, which runs to 2032, is both substantial and visible. As I reported last year, revenue flow from frameworks for the delivery of these programmes has been slow and as a result this business has continued to perform below our expectations. Increasingly, our focus is on the large diameter medium pressure market in London where our particular skills are highly valued by our clients.
Environmental
We provide maintenance, renewal and emergency reactive services to support water and sewer infrastructure, flood alleviation and coastal protection works.
For Northumbrian Water, we operate as one of two providers on the GBP14m per annum AMP 6 Sewerage Repairs and Maintenance Framework. Work is also undertaken on the Major Waste Water, Clean Water and Maintenance and Trunk Mains Cleaning frameworks.
We have maintained our strong relationship with Wessex Water with our appointment to the AMP 6 Civils and EMI Delivery Partners Framework. This arrangement, which runs to 2020, is estimated at GBP350m over the term with potential for extension through the next AMP 7 period. In addition, we remain involved on their new Integrated Grid programme as well as on a range of civil engineering schemes.
Our long established relationship with Welsh Water continues with work being delivered via the Pressurised Pipelines Framework, the Major Civils Framework and the Emergency Reactive framework.
The first half of the year has seen good progress on the Environment Agency's GBP10m MEICA Framework which covers flood and water management sites throughout the Northern Region to 2019. In addition, works have commenced to repair the electrical system at the Fosse Barrier in York following our provision of emergency support during the winter flooding. Work is also undertaken nationally for the Environment Agency on four minor works frameworks.
In Land Remediation, we work for National Grid on a number of frameworks. During the period, we have also secured an GBP11m contract at Sighthill for Glasgow City Council.
Our long running specialist restoration activity at the Palace of Westminster is progressing with work well advanced on the second of four projects on the Cast Iron Roof programme. In the period we were also appointed to the four year Courtyards Conservation framework at this site.
Infrastructure
As one of the leading infrastructure services providers to Network Rail, we undertake off-track planned, reactive and emergency maintenance and renewal works.
We are sole provider on seven Infrastructure Projects frameworks with an advertised value of GBP450m over the five-year term of the current CP5 investment period. We also undertake high volumes of individual tasks through six Asset Management frameworks. These cover a wide range of essential assets including bridges, tunnels and embankments. We continue to develop our position as the major structures renewals and sole maintenance contractor in Scotland and notable schemes have included coastal line protection works at Saltcoats.
Our locally based delivery teams provide a 24/7 emergency response service on the rail network. The severe weather around the turn of the year saw our teams respond to critical infrastructure requirements for Network Rail. This included emergency works at Lamington Viaduct in the Upper Clyde Valley where the main line from Carlisle to Glasgow was closed for several weeks to repair extensive damage caused by flooding. We returned the line to operation ahead of schedule.
New awards include the three-year, GBP15m Historic Railways Estate Works framework for Highways England.
In wireless telecoms we work for the UK's cellular network operators and original equipment manufacturers. The corporate M&A activity in this market during 2015 caused volatility and adversely impacted our financial performance. Whilst the business has not yet returned to deliver our originally expected level of margin, it has traded profitably and in line with budget in the first half of this financial year. Consumer demand for faster, more capable mobile connectivity is driving the installation and expansion of 4G services which continues to provide the majority of our work.
Specialist Building
The Group has particular expertise and focuses on the major structural engineering works required in many High Quality Residential refurbishment projects in London and the Home Counties.
In the first half of the financial year Specialist Building revenue was GBP44.4m (2015: GBP42.5m), with an operating profit of GBP1.1m (2015: GBP1.0m). The forward order book increased by 11% to GBP99m (2015: GBP89m). This market remains robust and the Group has fully secured revenue for the second half of this financial year with very good visibility of workload through 2017.
Strategy
We continue to pursue our strategy of maximising organic growth whilst seeking further earnings enhancing acquisitions. Our independently branded subsidiary businesses deliver a large volume of tasks across critical infrastructure networks, supporting their day-to-day operation. Delivering planned and emergency maintenance services for our clients with our responsive, directly employed workforce provides a key differentiator in our markets, producing growth opportunities.
