CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Despite a reduction in revenue resulting from the current global recession,
previously reported cost measures have allowed the Company to deliver a GBP1.05m
profit which is a 22% increase over the same period last year.
Operational Review
In the vehicle telematics sector, Cybit supports nearly 50,000 mobile assets for
approaching 2,000 customers. Order intake from our UK focused installed base
and new business teams declined by circa 20% when compared with the same period
last year. There was however an increase of 4% over second half performance last
year which gives us confidence that the UK vehicle telematics market is starting
to recover.
New customer wins during the first half have included CLC, Hobart and UK
Drainage Network. Although renewal rates held up at circa 80% of units, orders
intake was behind the same period last year. Significant expansion and renewal
deals were however signed with existing customers including May Gurney,
Linbrook, Fowler Welch and Iron Mountain.
Vehicle telematics order intake at the group level was relatively flat at
GBP8.5m but encouragingly showed growth of 13% over the second half of last
year. This leads us to believe that the European market as a whole is slowly
starting to recover.
Cost and cash management continue to remain an absolute priority and we continue
to focus on operational efficiencies and process improvements within the
business.
Financial Performance
Revenue in the first half reduced by 16% from GBP12.3m to GBP10.3m when compared
with the same period last year. However, it is pleasing to note that as a
result of cost saving measures implemented over the last twelve to eighteen
months, pre-tax profit increased from GBP0.86m to GBP1.05m.
Gross cash, excluding bank overdrafts, increased from GBP2.67m at 31st March to
GBP3.38m at 30th September. Cash balances, including overdrafts, stood at
GBP2.5m at September. Net cash, after all group bank borrowings, stood at
GBP1k as a result of investment in acquisitions, own book and capital
investment
As at 30th September, the internal lease book included GBP7m of profit that will
be recognised over the next three to five years. This is down from GBP7.7m at
31st March 2009
At the end of the period, the Group had GBP3m of cash available from the HSBC
revolving credit facility plus an unused overdraft facility of GBP0.5m.
Operational Performance
Our business incorporates three sectors; Vehicle Telematics, Maritime Solutions
and Private Mobile Radio based tracking and precise positioning. Order intake
from our precise positioning and maritime businesses declined substantially in
the period from GBP2.1m to GBP1.2m. This is a direct result of the current
significant downturn in both the oil and gas exploration and fisheries
management markets. Although order intake was down, revenues from our Cybit
Positioning Solutions business held up as we continued to deliver against
outstanding order commitments. We are now starting to see increased activity in
this sector which gives us confidence in the longer term prospects.
Within our BlueFinger Maritime business a lack of order intake during the first
half will most likely impact the full year performance of this business. Delays
to a number of significant projects have impacted order intake although we are
starting to see increased activity levels which could result in an upturn
towards the end of the fiscal year.
Technology
During the first half, most of the development effort relating to
Fleetstar-Online was focused on delivering enhancements to key areas such as
CANbus, business/private mileage and enhancing logistics capabilities such as
estimated time of arrival and temperature monitoring. The team also delivered a
new map display environment which integrates digital and satellite maps.
A significant program of work has been undertaken with the Truck24 platform.
This involved the implementation of a new hardware and database environment
which will improve scalability and resilience as the installed base continues to
grow.
Indirect Channels
In general, the UK SMEs have been badly affected by the current recession and in
common with many companies in our market, order intake from our reseller
community has declined by circa 55% over the same period last year. We are
starting to see signs of recovery and hope to see improvement during the final
quarter of the current fiscal year.
International Operations
Truck24
The performance of Truck24 was very strong with order intake increasing from
circa EUR600k to EUR2.3m as a result of both new and existing customers investing in
our technology.
Revenue performance for the first half increased from GBP1.4m to GBP1.7m with
the business delivering profit and cash to the Group.
Cybit AB
This has been another successful period of growth for our Scandinavian
operation. Order intake for the first six months increased significantly over
the same period last year and we now have customer installations in Sweden,
Denmark, Norway and Finland.
Revenues during the period increased from GBP0.2m to GBP0.6m and the business
contributed both cash and profit to the Group.
Acquisition of Integra Telematics Contracts
In September, Cybit was assigned contracts to provide telematics services to
customers of Integra Telematics, a subsidiary of Glasgow based GDS Mobile
Communications Limited.
Integra's customer base includes a significant number of infrastructure
providers in the local government and construction sectors as well as five large
Scottish councils. The addition of these contracts has consolidated Cybit's
position as one of the leading providers of telematics solutions to Scottish
based customers. As part of the deal, GDS has become a reseller and installer of
Cybit solutions.
Cybit has already made significant progress migrating customers from the Integra
platform to Fleetstar-Online.
Post period event
Since the period end, the Board of Directors announced that they had reached
agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition of the entire issued
and to be issued ordinary share capital of Cybit Holdings plc, by Cyberspace
Bidco Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Francisco Partners, the global
technology-focused private equity firm.
The Board firmly believes that this transaction is in the best interests of
shareholders and delivers value which would take much longer to achieve as a
listed company. The financial and operational flexibility afforded by Francisco
Partners' private ownership will enable Cybit to continue to drive growth to the
benefit of both our customers and employees.
Finally, I would like to place on record my thanks to Richard and the team in
ensuring that an offer, capable of being recommended by the Board, has been made
to shareholders. If shareholders vote in favour and the proposed acquisition
completes, Richard expects to leave the business following a handover period and
I wish him well in his future ventures.
