Interim Results for the six months ended 30th June 2023
The Company presents its unaudited interims results for the six months ended 30th June 2023:
Performance
At the time of our 2022 results announcement in April 2023, we noted that the year had began positively for the Group, albeit the post-pandemic economic effects, the energy crisis, and the Ukraine war made it even more difficult than usual, to predict future trading. The directors are therefore pleased to report that the Group's performance has remained strong in the first half of 2023.
Group sales revenue for the first six months of 2023 increased by 16% to GBP24.7m when compared to GBP21.3m for the same period in 2022, while profit from operations was GBP2.3m compared to GBP2.0m (before exceptional item) for the same six month-period last year. Profit before tax increased to GBP2.1m compared to GBP1.6m for the same period in 2022. Profit after tax for the first six months of 2023 was GBP1.5m compared to GBP1.1m in 2022. We also noted at the time of our announcement that the first quarter of 2023 saw the different parts of the Group performing quite differently, with the Asian regions relatively subdued, but with USA our key market, remaining particularly buoyant. This trend has continued into the second quarter of 2023.
The positive performance of the Group is despite Sterling strengthening against the US dollar during the first half of 2023. A significant proportion of the Group's income is earned in the USA, and consequently, Sterling strengthening (GBP to USD of 1:1.2714 at the end of June 2023 compared to 1:1.204 at the end of 2022) results in a decrease in profit for the Group when reported in Sterling. Similarly, as a result of Sterling strengthening against other currencies, foreign currency losses have been incurred by the UK companies, as they hold significant overseas intercompany loan balances.
During the year, the Group has continued to improve its Hunslet Road property, to enhance and maintain operational efficiencies. These results include GBP300,000 of ground repair costs, where the recent discovery of a second subterranean well to the rear of our property well has resulted in a temporary diversion of our dispatch operations.
Taking these factors into account, the underlying trading performance of the Group in the first half of the year is particularly pleasing.
Dividends
In line with the Group's policy to maintain dividend growth, balanced alongside the Group's requirement for investment in capital to support long-term growth, the directors have decided to increase the interim dividend from 4.75p to 5.25p per share. This dividend will be paid on 13th October 2023 to the Ordinary and 'A' Ordinary shareholders on the register on the 29th September 2023. The associated ex-dividend date is 28th September 2023.
Braime Pressings Limited
External sales revenue of GBP3.2m in the first 6 months of 2023 was 9% up on the same period last year, largely due to an increase in steel commodity prices which has driven up sales revenues. Intercompany sales also increased by GBP95,000, an increase of 4%. The manufacturing division made a profit after tax of GBP507,000 in the six-month period to June 2023, in line with the same period last year.
4B Division
Our distribution division's external sales revenue of GBP21.5m increased by 17% when compared to GBP18.3m for the same period last year. Intercompany trading was GBP3.1m, unchanged from the same period in 2022. As mentioned, the division has benefitted from an increase in demand in the USA, in particular in our electronics products, as customers have continued to invest in new projects following the upturn in activity that we witnessed in 2022. EBITDA rose by 13% to GBP2.6m. The results for the 4B division have been negatively impacted by foreign currency fluctuations and profit after tax for the 4B division for the six-month period increased by 11% to GBP1.5m compared to GBP1.4m for the same period last year.
Balance Sheet
Net assets of the Group as at 30th June 2023 amounted to GBP20.1m (30th June 2022 - GBP17.3m). Tangible fixed asset additions during the period amounted to GBP784,000. Of this, GBP359,000 relates to the enhancement of the chain cell facility and GBP97,000 relates to the installation of additional solar panels at our Leeds headquarters which takes our energy generated from green solar PV to 310kwH. Other capital investments relate to items of manufacturing and IT equipment, including GBP138,000 relating to a new moulding machine in the USA.
Inventory of GBP13.0m has increased by GBP1.9m when compared to 30th June 2022 but decreased by GBP264,000 when compared to 31st December 2022. The increase from June 2022 was in part due to large increases in raw material prices, and in part, due to stocking up at the end of 2022 to meet increased customer demand. This materialised in the first half of 2023 leading to the reduction in inventory levels compared to the year end. Trade receivables of GBP8.9m have increased by GBP445,000 when compared to 30th June 2022 as a consequence of the rise in revenue in 2023. Trade payables of GBP7.1m have increased by GBP1.1m when compared to 30th June 2022 but decreased by GBP1.5m when compared to 31st December 2022 reflecting the increase in activity as well as the stock purchasing profile during the year.
Cash flow
The net cash position of the Group at the end of June 2023 was GBP886,000 compared to an overdrawn balance as at 30th June 2022 of GBP201,000. Cash generated from operations before working capital movements was GBP1.7m. Working capital (inventory, receivables and payables) increases for the six-month period came to GBP1.5m as a consequence of increased trading activity outlined above. Investment in capital projects gave rise to outflows of GBP784,000. There were proceeds from new loans of GBP1.2m, of which GBP978,000 related to bank loan for the re-development of the chain cell, (as reported in our end-of-year announcement in April 2023), with the balance relating to robotic equipment financed under hire purchase arrangements. Overall, net cash increased by GBP100,000 during the six months to 30th June 2023. The business has good headroom within its GBP3.5m bank overdraft facility and management remain focused in ensuring that working capital requirements, particularly for stock and debtors, are carefully monitored and controlled.
Principal exchange rates
The Group reports its results in Sterling, its presentational currency. The Group operates in six other currencies and the average of the principal exchange rates in use during the half year and the closing rates as at 30th June 2023 are shown in the table below, along with comparatives. As mentioned previously, a significant proportion of the Group revenues are derived in the USA. The Group has incurred foreign exchange losses as a result of the strengthening of Sterling against the US Dollar since 31st December 2022.
The loss on translation of overseas assets amounted to GBP505,000 for the six-month period, as shown in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income table on page 5.

Notes to KPI's
1. Turnover growth
The Group aims to increase shareholder value by measuring the year-on-year growth in Group revenue. Revenues are up due to the strong demand in the material handling sectors and a rise in raw material prices.
2. Gross margin
Gross profit (revenue less change in inventories and raw materials used) as a percentage of revenue is monitored to maximise profits available for reinvestment and distribution to shareholders. Gross margin is ahead of the same period last year as strong demand has provided the opportunity to increase selling prices on certain product ranges. The directors continue to monitor the margins carefully for further movement.
3. Operating profit
Sustainable growth in operating profit is a strategic priority to enable ongoing investment and increase shareholder value. Operating profits have improved as a direct result of the increase in sales in both the manufacturing and the 4B division and a reduction in property repair costs.
4. Stock days
The value of period-end inventories divided by raw materials and consumables used and changes in inventories of finished goods and work in progress expressed as a number of days is monitored to ensure the right level of stocks are held in order to meet customer demands whilst not carrying excessive amounts which impacts upon working capital requirements. Stock days have increased from the level as at June 2022 as a result of increased inventory unit prices and but decreased compared to stock days as at December 2022 as stock built up at the end of 2022 have been utilised. Management are focused on reducing the level of stock days.
5. Debtor days
The value of period-end trade receivables divided by revenue expressed as a number of days. This is an important indicator of working capital requirements. It is pleasing to see that debtor days at 57 days are lower than the equivalent figure as at June 2022 and from the figure as at December 2022 despite the increase in sales activity. Management remain focused on reducing this to improve cash.
Other metrics monitored weekly or monthly include quality measures (such as customer complaints), raw materials buying prices, capital expenditure, line utilisation, reportable accidents and near-misses.
Outlook for the second half of 2023
4B USA remains buoyant as the US economy continues its post Covid boom; but historically is likely to be negatively affected by the usual uncertainty and delays in committing to new Capex investments as the US approaches a Presidential election in 2024.
Our subsidiaries in the Asia region, 4B China, 4B Asia and 4B Australia are all affected by the very unusual current recession in the Asian economies and 4B France is now starting to feel the same downturn in the EU. However, both our UK operations are still performing well. 4B Braime Components has recently launched globally several exciting new products and Braime Pressings in the autumn will be trialing two new very promising long-term contracts.
Overall, we think 2023 will continue the run of good results in recent years, even though it is unlikely that the Group will be able to repeat last year's record result, because global trading conditions have deteriorated substantially. In 2024 and in the longer term, the Group remains well placed to make further progress. Our hard-working staff have become accustomed to successfully overcoming new challenges and outperforming the general market. Meanwhile the Board continues to focus on developing new products and new markets.
Employees
All our employees in the Group, regardless of location continue to make a major contribution and we thank them for their efforts.
