CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Overview
Andrews Sykes' trading continues to be resilient as sectors in which we trade show ongoing demand, despite the unprecedented challenge in the form of the coronavirus pandemic. We continue to be thankful and proud of our team members as they respond as essential service providers.
The Group's revenue for the 6 months ended 30 June 2021 (the "period") was GBP35.7 million, an increase of GBP2.2 million compared with the same period in 2020. Operating profit for the period was GBP8.0 million compared with GBP7.0 million in 2020, an increase of GBP1.0 million, reflecting the increased revenue. Overall, net funds increased by GBP2.0 million from GBP7.7m million as at 31 December 2020 to GBP9.7 million as at 30 June 2021 .
Operations review
Our main hire and sales businesses in Europe all reported improved revenues in the period. Revenue at Andrews Sykes Hire in the UK improved by 6.1% compared with the same period in 2020. Our businesses in the rest of Europe experienced a significant rebound in revenue, improving 28.8% compared to the same period in 2020, on the back of reduced covid restrictions and increased business activities. Consequently, the combined operating profit for the UK and European hire businesses in the period was GBP1.4 million above the level achieved in 2020.
Andrews Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, our UK air conditioning installation business, was particularly affected by the coronavirus pandemic as our engineers were not allowed access to certain customer sites in order to carry out their work. Whilst revenue increased 20.5% in the period compared to the first six months of 2020, it still remains 34.5% lower than the corresponding period in 2019. Tight cost control has meant this business generated a profit of GBP0.2m in the period as compared to a small loss in the first half of 2020.
Khansaheb Sykes, our business based in the UAE, continued to experience a difficult trading environment during the period due to the coronavirus pandemic and reduced demand during Ramadan. Revenue was 28.2% lower than the first half of 2020 and operating profit decreased by GBP0.7 million compared with the first half of 2020.
Profit for the financial period and Earnings per Share
Profit before tax for the period was GBP7.6 million compared with GBP7.2 million in the same period last year. This GBP0.4m increase is attributable to the GBP1.0 million improvement in operating profit, a net foreign exchange loss on inter-company balances of GBP0.1 million (2020: gain of GBP0.4m) due to the strengthening of Sterling compared with the Euro and the UAE Dirham, and a net increase of GBP0.1 million in interest charges.
The total tax charge for the period increased by GBP0.1 million to GBP1.3 million (2020: GBP1.2 million), an effective tax rate of 17.5% (2020: 16.1%), mainly due to the lower profit generated by Khansaheb, on which no tax is payable, increasing the overall effective tax rate.
Profit after tax in the period was GBP6.2 million (2020: GBP6.1 million). Basic earnings per share increased by 0.40 pence, or 2.8%, to 14.79 pence (2020: 14.39 pence) reflecting this increase in profit .
Dividends
The final dividend of 11.50 pence per ordinary share for the year ended 31 December 2020 was approved by members at the AGM held on 15 June 2021. Accordingly, on 18 June 2021 the Company made a total dividend payment of GBP4.85 million which was paid to shareholders on the register as at 28 May 2021.
The board continues to adopt the policy of returning value to shareholders whenever possible. The Group remains profitable, cash generative and financially strong. Accordingly, the board has decided to declare an interim dividend of 11.90 pence per ordinary share which in total amounts to GBP5.0 million. This will be paid on 5 November 2021 to shareholders on the register as at 8 October 2020. The ordinary shares will go ex-dividend on 7 October 2021 .
Outlook
Whilst certain of the Group's business operations continue to be affected by the coronavirus pandemic, for example the performance of Khansaheb remains depressed compared to historical levels, demand in Europe has increased and the pumps business in the UK continues to perform in line with last year's levels and above pre pandemic levels. Management remains optimistic that the business will continue to improve as the economy recovers fully but are mindful that we live in uncertain times and circumstances can change very quickly .

The total effective tax charge for the financial period represents the best estimate of the weighted average annual effective tax rate expected for the full financial year applying tax rates that have been substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. UK corporation tax has been provided at 19%. In the UK budget on 15 March 2021, the chancellor announced that the rate of corporation tax in the UK will increase from 19% to 25% with effect from 1 April 2023. This increase will increase the amount of corporation tax payable in the UK. Deferred tax has been calculated based on the rates that the directors anticipate will apply when the temporary timing differences are expected to reverse .

7 Pensions
The Group closed the UK Group defined benefit pension scheme to future accrual as at 29 December 2002. The assets of the defined benefit pension scheme continue to be held in a separate trustee administered fund. Over recent years the Group has taken steps to manage the ongoing risks associated with its defined benefit liabilities.
As at 30 June 2021 the Group had a net defined benefit pension scheme surplus, calculated in accordance with IAS 19 using the assumptions as set out below, of GBP3,606,000 (30 June 2020: GBP479,000; 31 December 2020: GBP498,000). The asset has been recognised in the financial statements as the directors are satisfied that it is recoverable in accordance with IFRIC 14.
Following the triennial recalculation of the funding deficit as at 31 December 2019, a revised schedule of contributions and recovery plan was agreed with the pension scheme trustees in March 2021 and was effective from 1 January 2021. In accordance with this schedule of contributions and recovery plan, the Group will be making regular contributions of GBP110,000 per month for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2022, and GBP10,000 per month for the period 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2025 or until a revised schedule of contributions is agreed, if earlier. Consequently the Group expects to make total contributions to the defined benefit pension scheme of GBP1,320,000 during 2021.
Assumptions used to calculate the scheme surplus
The IAS 19 figures are based on a number of actuarial assumptions as set out below, which the actuaries have confirmed they consider appropriate.
30 June 30 June 31 December 2021 2020 2020 Rate of increase in pensionable salaries n/a n/a n/a Rate of increase in pensions in payment 3.3% 2.9% 2.9% Discount rate 1.8% 1.4% 1.3% Inflation assumption - RPI 3.3% 2.9% 2.9% Inflation assumption - CPI 2.7% 1.9% 2.3% Percentage of members taking maximum tax-free lump sum on retirement 75% 75% 75%
The demographic assumptions used for 30 June 2021, were the same as used in 31 December 2020, 30 June 2020 and the last full actuarial valuation performed as at 1 April 2020.
Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set based on advice in accordance with published statistics. The mortality table used at 30 June 2021, 30 June 2020 and 31 December 2020 is 100% S3PA CMI2018 with a 1.25% per annum long term improvement for both males and females, heavy tables for males and medium tables for females.
