INTERIM REPORT

Half year ended 30 September 2019

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Despite all the political and economic uncertainties in the UK, our six month figures to 30th September showed profit before tax down only a little on the prior period, but ahead of our internal budget, at GBP363k (2018: GBP402k) on sales of GBP6.920m (2018: GBP6.722m).

Although the UK market is showing up some classic signs of a downturn, we received enough orders, particularly for our newer products, backed up by our export sales, to produce the current result.

I cannot believe that yet again that I have to bring up Brexit as the reason for continued uncertainties, which could affect the next six months quite dramatically. To this must now be added the Election here in UK, as well as others coming up elsewhere in the world. It is very difficult to forecast how all these factors will affect our second half trading.

We are proposing an interim dividend of 5.5p per share (2018: 5.5p), which will be paid on 20 March 2020 to ordinary shareholders registered at the close of business on 21 February 2020.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT

   1.            BASIS OF PREPARATION OF INTERIM REPORT 

As permitted, IAS34 'Interim Financial Reporting' has not been applied in this interim report. The information for the period ended 30 September 2019 is not audited and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2019 were given an unqualified audit report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The interim accounts for the half year ended 30 September 2018 were also unaudited.

   2.            ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting 

The report has been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee as adopted by the European Union.

The group has not availed itself of early adoption options in such standards and interpretation. IFRS 16 Leases has been adopted in the period, the effect at the Half Year is to recognise the right of use asset of GBP133k and the finance lease liability of GBP132k.

IFRS 16 brings all operating leases onto the statement of financial position. The Group has used the modified retrospective transition approach on adoption of IFRS 16 Leases, where the initial right of use asset values recognised on property leases of GBP159k are equal to the present value of the future lease payments as at the date of transition (1 April 2019).

The net impact on the consolidated income statement is a decrease in profit before taxation of GBP1k. Finance costs have increased by GBP2k with the pre-IFRS 16 rental charge of GBP29k replaced by a depreciation charge GBP28k.

The principal accounting policies adopted are as set out in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2019, except for changes due to the adoption of IFRS16. The valuation of inventories is considered to be the main area in terms of significant accounting estimates and judgements.

The retirement benefit scheme liability recognised in these interim accounts reflects the estimated change in the deficit at 30 September 2019 from the movements in discount rates and inflation during the six months.

   3.            DIVIDENDS 

An Interim dividend of 5.5p per share is proposed, payable on 20 March 2020 (paid 22 March 2019: 5.5p).

   4.            EARNINGS PER SHARE 

The basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the relevant profit after taxation of GBP294,000 (30 September 2018: GBP312,000) by the average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period being 2,534,322 (2018: 2,534,322). The number of shares used in the calculation is the same for both basic and diluted earnings.
