Chairman's Statement
Operation review
I am pleased to report that the business has continued to strengthen in the first six months of the year and has achieved a significant increase in revenues following the increase in the level of orders booked during 2014. In addition orders booked during the first half of the year have enabled the business to maintain a strong orderbook and helped to improve the visibility of the business into the future.
The operating results for the first six months of the year demonstrate the progress that the Group has made over the last 18 months. Revenues have increased by 22.6% to GBP11.4 million compared with GBP9.3 million in 2014. Gross profit has increased by 21.8% to GBP3.0 million compared with GBP2.5 million in 2014. With administrative expenses having only marginally increased by 3.2% to GBP2.8 million from GBP2.7 million in 2014, profit from operations before exceptional items achieved in the period was GBP0.3 million compared with a loss of GBP0.1 million in 2014.
At 30th June 2015 the business had confirmed orders from customers of GBP13.4 million compared with GBP12.5 million at 30 June 2014, an increase of 7.2%, demonstrating the continued progress that the business has made during the first half of 2015. These orders will be delivered during the second half of the current year and into 2016.
The second half of the year is traditionally stronger than the first half year and looking at the revenues already scheduled over the remainder of the year I would anticipate this trend continuing during the second half of 2015. For this reason the Board is confident that the business will achieve its market expectations for the full year.
The growth that has been reported in the first six months of the year has been largely from the core business with the US, France and Taiwan performing particularly strongly. The UK has continued to underperform but has revenues scheduled in the second half of the year substantially higher than those achieved in the first half of the year. I have previously reported that the business has undertaken three investments in new product lines and I am pleased to report that in the first six months of the year the Bonding line that was set up in Taiwan is now delivering good revenues. Work has continued with the other investments in Ripdraw and Densipaper to build the pipeline of opportunities and there remain significant opportunities for both of these investments to deliver a return for the Group.
Other matters
The Group retains a piece of land located at Blackheath in South East London. The Board continues to work with its advisors on realising the potential of the land and will advise Shareholders when there is further information to report.
