Interim Results
Anexo Group plc (AIM: ANX), the specialist integrated credit hire and legal services provider, is pleased to report its maiden set of interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2018 ('H1 2018'). The Board is pleased to report a successful first six months of the financial year with management confident in meeting the Board's expectations for the full year.
As noted in the Group's admission document, the management took a decision in 2017 to focus on motorcycle claims and settling existing claims in progress rather than new claims generation. This resulted in reduced activity during the six months ended December 2017 ('H2 2017') and into H1 2018. As a result, the first six months trading of 2018 is behind the strong first half of 2017.
This strategy was reversed in late 2017 following the decision to raise funds on public markets. The number of sales representatives and vehicles on hire have increased during the period resulting in an increased number of claims which is expected to impact positively on future periods. Growth in the number of vehicles on fleet and on hire has continued into the current period with vehicles on hire reaching 1,241 as at 31 August 2018. The funds raised at IPO have underpinned this expansion.
Operational Highlights
-- Increased the vehicle fleet to 2,293 at 30 June 2018 (H1 2017: 1,568) -- Vehicles on hire increased by 27% to 1,240 at 30 June 2018 (H1 2017: 974) -- Maintained utilisation rates around target, reaching 82% at 30 June 2018 (H1 2017: 80%) -- Focused on settlement rates which are currently trending upwards -- Staff employed at Bond Turner increased by 29% to 215 at 30 June 2018 (H1 2017: 167)
-- Successful recruitment for the new Bolton office which has widened the recruitment pool and injected the experience and skill of 12 highly experienced, industry renowned litigators (an increase of 27%) to increase settlements, and add to existing skill sets within the firm
-- Number of new cases funded increased 12% to 2,588 (H1 2017: 2,306)
Financial Highlights
-- Turnover reached GBP23.5 million in H1 2018 (H1 2017: GBP22.9 million), representing growth of 2.6% over the prior period and 6.9% above that reported in H2 2017 (GBP21.9 million)
-- Adjusted profit before taxation reached GBP6.8 million in H1 2018 (H1 2017: GBP8.5 million). This represents an 11.6% increase in adjusted profit before taxation over that reported for H2 2017 (GBP6.1 million)
-- Adjusted EPS at 5.4 pence for H1 2018 (H1 2017: 6.4 pence)
-- At June 2018 the Group had net cash balances of GBP6.0 million (June 2017: Net cash balance of (GBP6.9 million)).
* Adjusted results exclude certain expenses incurred as part of the flotation
Commenting on the Interim Results, Alan Sellers, Executive Chairman of Anexo Group plc, said:
"Following our successful Admission to AIM in June this year, we are pleased to report that Anexo has continued to make positive operational and financial progress. With the funds raised at IPO now underpinning our expansion, we continue to grow our credit hire division through the investment in fleet, quality staff and systems. This has allowed us to secure the quality business which predicates our high recovery rates.
"As outlined at IPO, the Group is simultaneously focused on the expansion of its legal services business so as to allow the credit hire business to grow whilst improving cash generation levels. It is pleasing to see that Anexo has swiftly demonstrated its ability to execute its growth strategy, increasing employment levels across the division and the signing of a lease for a new Bolton office which will broaden our fee earning potential.
"There is an ever-increasing market opportunity and our hybrid, scalable business model is well placed to grown in both the credit hire and legal claims markets, delivering near-term returns for our shareholders."

Notes to Editors:
Anexo is a specialist integrated credit hire and legal services provider founded by Executive Chairman, Alan Sellers. The Group has created a unique business model by combining a direct capture Credit Hire business with a wholly owned Legal Services firm.
The integrated business targets the impecunious not at fault motorist, referring to those who do not have the financial means or access to a replacement vehicle. Through its dedicated sales team and network of 1,000 active referrers around the UK, Anexo provides customers with an end-to-end service including the provision of Credit Hire vehicles, assistance with repair and recovery, the management and recovery of costs, and the processing of any associated personal injury claim.
The Group was admitted to trading on AIM in June 2018 with the ticker ANX. For additional information please visit: www.anexo-group.com.
Executive Chairman's Statement
On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to introduce Anexo's maiden set of interim results since the Group's successful admission to trading on AIM in June 2018. The Group has performed strongly in H1 2018, notwithstanding the commitment the senior management demonstrated during this period to gain admission, whilst delivering growth compared to H2 2017. The performance in the period is in line with management's expectations and has been impacted by the investment made in lead generation, driving the increase seen in the number of vehicles on the road, which is supportive of the Board's expectations for the full year.
Admission to AIM
The placing that accompanied Anexo's admission to AIM raised GBP25.0 million before expenses, of which GBP10.0 million was raised for the Group, and GBP15.0 million for the Selling Shareholders, of which not less than GBP5.0 million was repaid to the Group. The response from investors to the admission was positive, demonstrating confidence in both Anexo's strategy and the management team's ability to deliver and generate returns. The Board joins me in welcoming all our new shareholders and thanking them for their continuing support of the Group.
Financial review
Although considerable time was spent preparing for the AIM admission during H1 2018, the management team remained focused on growing the Group's operational businesses and we are pleased that these maiden results for six months ended 30 June 2018 represent an improvement over that seen in the previous six months as management decisions took effect. A summary of the Group's key financial performance is set out in the table below:
Financial Highlights
6 months ended 6 months 6 months ended
30 June 2018 ended 31 December
GBP'000s 30 June 2017 2017

Revenue 23,458 22,879 21,946
Gross Profit 16,578 17,005 16,613
Gross margin (%) 70.7% 74.3% 75.7%
Profit before taxation 5,338 8,498 6,069
Adjusted profit before

Adjusted EBITDA* 7,777 8,954 6,545
Adjusted EPS* (pence) 5.4 6.4 4.9
* Adjusted results exclude certain expenses incurred as part of the flotation
Highlights of the Group performance include:
-- Revenues increased from GBP22.9 million in H1 2017 to GBP23.5 million in H1 2018, an increase of 2.5%, and by 6.9% from the revenue reported in H2 2017, the growth coming from the legal services business reflecting the focus during that period on investment in staff numbers to drive case settlements and cash generation.
-- Whilst revenues increased period on period, gross profits reduced slightly between H1 2017 and H1 2018 (GBP0.4 million, 2.5%) and remained consistent with that reported in H2 2017. The slight reduction reflecting a change in insurance provider, H1 2017 benefitting from rebates agreed with the Group's former insurer, who effectively withdrew from the market in 2017. The increased net insurance cost impacted gross margins with further insurance cost increases associated with the sharp increase in vehicle numbers seen in H1 2018.
-- Adjusted EBITDA reduced from GBP9.0 million in H1 2017, to GBP6.5 million in H2 2017, then rising to GBP7.8 million in H1 2018, these movements reflecting both the insurance costs noted above and variations in the performance of the credit hire business, which was effectively managed for cash in the latter part of 2017, this trend being reversed in H1 2018.
Dividend
As outlined in the Group's AIM admission document, Anexo is not paying an interim dividend in 2018 but the Board intends to recommend the payment of a dividend of 1.5 pence per Ordinary Share for the current financial year ending 31 December 2018.

Credit Hire division
The Group continues to devote significant resource and focus to the take on processes that are essential in securing quality business which supports the continued success and excellent recovery rates historically reported. This investment in staffing and systems continues with recovery rates above historical averages.
During the six months to June 2018, management has successfully expanded the number of vehicles on hire by 424 (a 52% increase), the total rising from 815 at the start of the period to 1,240 at 30 June 2018. This increase has been supported by the recruitment of an additional 8 sales staff (31%), expanding our geographical coverage and demonstrates the significant growth opportunity available to the Group.
Following the effective withdrawal of our previous insurer from the market, we have secured a new, long term, insurance partner for the fleet as well as agreeing a 12-month extension to our primary long term funding facility so as to provide a robust platform for future growth alongside efficient deployment of the working capital generated from the IPO.
Legal Services division
H1 2018 H1 2017 H2 2017
New Cases Funded 2,588 2,306 2,130
The IPO funds were very much targeted at increasing capacity within the legal services business so as to allow the credit hire business to grow whilst improving cash generation levels. In terms of new cases funded there was a 12% increase on H1 2017 to H1 2018 and a 22% increase from H2 2017 to H1 2018. This trend continued to show improvement post the period end, in the quarter ended 31 August 2018 there were 1,686 new cases funded, a 49% increase when compared to the comparative period in 2017.
In the period we commenced lease negotiations for a new Bolton office alongside the recruitment of senior staff so as to hit the ground running once the office is operational. On 5 September 2018, the Group announced that the lease for the Bolton office had been signed and fit out works had commenced with a view to being fully operational in November 2018. The recruitment of staff is proceeding better than forecast and to date we have secured 12 senior fee earners for the new office which represents a 27% increase in qualified fee earners.
The Bolton office has unlocked logistical recruitment restraints by allowing the Group to access and secure highly skilled, vastly experienced litigators who are highly regarded in the industry. The cross section of staff includes individuals in the field of credit hire, who come with a range of skill sets with invaluable experience from both a claimant and defendant background. Their recruitment will not only lead to an increase in settlements, but it will also allow these individuals to impart their knowledge and experience amongst existing teams, adding to skill sets and elevating the skilled, litigious reputation of the firm further.
Trading Outlook
As we envisaged and targeted, trading in H1 2018 presents a significant improvement on that seen in H2 2017 as management decisions and investment have resulted in increasing claims generation. With over 1,200 vehicles now with our clients and headcount in Bond Turner increasing, trading for the full year is expected to be in line with expectations.
Post period end we have secured the lease for our new office in Bolton as well as started the recruitment process with the office expected to open in November 2018. The increased legal capacity will drive increase settlement numbers and rates, with a view to closing the gap between cases taken on and settlement to improve cash generation into 2019 and 2020, in line with our forecasts.
I believe Anexo is now well positioned to take advantage of the opportunities available to it and the Board looks forward to the future with optimism.

Anexo Group Plc
Notes to the Interim Statements
For the unaudited period ended 30 June 2018
1. Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies
Anexo Group Plc was incorporated on 27 March 2018. On 15 June 2018 the Company acquired 100 per cent of the issued share capital of Direct Accident Management Limited, Bond Turner Limited, Professional and Legal Services Limited, IGCA 2013 Limited and AMS Legal Services Limited.
Following this Group reorganisation the financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2018 have been prepared on a merger accounting basis as though this Group structure had always been in place and a full six month set of results is therefore presented. The first day of trading of the Group included in this six month interim statement was therefore 1 January 2018.
On 20 June 2018, Anexo Group Plc was admitted to the AIM market of London Stock Exchange Plc.
These interim unaudited financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies expected to be adopted for the period ending 31 December 2018 under the historical cost convention. These are in accordance with the Group's accounting policies as set out in the historical financial information included in the AIM Admission Document.
The recognition and measurement requirements of all International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRSs'), International Accounting Standards ('IAS') and interpretations currently endorsed by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and its committees as adopted by the EU and as required to be adopted by AIM listed companies have been applied. AIM-listed companies are not required to comply with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and accordingly the Company has taken advantage of this exemption.
None of the standards, interpretations and amendments effective for the first time from 1 January 2018, including IFRS 9 and IFRS 15, have had a material effect on the historical financial information. None of the standards, interpretations and amendments which are effective for periods beginning after 1 January 2019 and which have not been adopted early, are expected to have a material effect on the historical financial information.
The financial information contained in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts for the six months ended 30 June 2018 and should be read in conjunction with the historical financial information included in the AIM Admission Document.
The condensed unaudited financial statements for the six months to 30 June 2018 have not been audited or reviewed by auditors pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on Review of Interim Financial Information.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the going concern assumption.
The directors have assessed the future funding requirement of the Group, and have compared them to the levels of available cash and funding resources. The assessment included a review of current financial projections to December 2019. Having undertaken this work, the directors are of the opinion that the Group has adequate resources to finance its operations for the foreseeable future and accordingly, continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Interim Report.
2. Segmental Reporting
The Group's reportable segments are as follows:
-- the provision of credit hire vehicles to individuals who have had a non-fault accident, and
-- associated legal services in the support of the individual provided with a vehicle by the Group and other legal service activities.
Management monitors the operating results of business segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resources to be allocated and of assessing performance.
