Chief Executive's Interim Operating Statement

As you would expect, 2020 has been a very challenging year for the Group so far. The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted all areas of our business in every territory we operate. The challenge to our staff, clients, promoters and operators has been enormous and I am extremely grateful to them all for their help, resilience and understanding. I would have liked for my first report as CEO to have been during more normal times, however, I am proud of how the Group has coped with the challenges it has faced and I look forward to better times in the future.

Trading during the period

Prior to lockdown, trading in the UK and Germany had been going to plan and we were looking forward to a successful 2020. However, the period of lockdown from mid-March until the summer and the continuing restrictions and economic climate have had a profound effect on our key territories of the UK and Germany.

During lockdown, almost all of our activities had to stop and as a result, all bookings for that period were cancelled or postponed. For three months, we recorded virtually no revenue. Additionally, for revenue that had already been recognised for confirmed bookings, significant credits had to be raised and provisions of GBP464k made in relation to possible cancellations of existing promotional bookings in the UK. This led to a substantial decrease in revenue across the Group and significant losses in the first half of 2020.

This put considerable strain on the existing cash reserves of the business, however, we have been able to stabilise and underpin our position by utilising the UK Government backed CBIL Scheme to borrow an additional GBP1 million as well as salary support schemes in both the UK and Germany. The effect of this has been that we continue to function as normal and meet our commitments as they become due, while still having significant cash headroom in the business. Unfortunately, we also had to take the decision to rationalise and reshape the business to cope with the immediate and anticipated medium term reduction in trade. As a result, we had to make a number of redundancies, predominantly in the UK. This is particularly upsetting as a number of these people had been with the business for many years. We have also made significant savings in office rents with a move to smaller and less expensive, although more suitable and attractive accommodation in Glasgow, and other overheads as we have looked to reduce costs wherever appropriate.

The Board also took the unprecedented step of cancelling the final dividend for 2019. I am very grateful for the messages of support that we had from shareholders supporting this decision. We have always been a business that likes to pay dividends and we will aim to reintroduce them as soon as it is prudent for us to do so.

Emerging from lockdown

Germany began to emerge from lockdown before the UK and after a few months of rebuilding trade, we are now almost back to normal levels of trading in Germany in each month. However, confidence among some operators remains fragile and we are working hard to rebuild this before the important Christmas trading period begins.

In the UK, we have been emerging from lockdown in stages. The first of our main venues to reopen were retail parks in June, followed by shopping centres a few weeks later. Since then, the majority of our trade has been in retail bookings as brand experience and customer acquisition business has remained difficult to implement. Restrictions on media budgets and nervousness about running activations whilst social distancing needs to be maintained has led to activity cancellation and has had a strong depressive effect on the brand business. We have, however, successfully retained good levels of retail business driven by the demand for short-term pop-up style activity which can operate without long term commitment and we have focussed our sales resource to selling key products and services that are relevant to the current market.

The one major venue type that remained closed for the majority of bookings was railway stations, but I am happy to advise that we have now restarted booking in selected stations with promoters showing interest in resuming their business. The fact that we are not solely focused on one venue type has been crucial in restarting the business and we continue to look to diversify our venue portfolio further.

We have also launched a new initiative called "Revive" which specifically targets occupation of vacant retail shops with local, online and new-to-market retailers. There is real demand for this from property owners and we have successfully delivered our first bookings.

Outlook

As I write this, Covid-19 cases in the UK are on the rise again and local restrictions are being put in place in many areas of the country. Our industry is slowly recovering, but is by no means back to normal. When we forecast the outlook for our business earlier this year, we assumed scenarios where there were further lockdowns. Although this would be extremely unwelcome news for us, we are confident that we will be able to trade through such events and emerge in a position to take advantage of the recovery. We have good cash headroom, are streamlined and very focused on achieving results and seeing the grass roots of recovery in bookings from 2021 onwards.

Finally, it was announced recently that my co-founder of the business and previous CEO, Matthew Bending, has retired from the business. I would like personally to thank Matt for leading the business for the past 20 years and for all the effort he put in to developing the idea of commercialisation into what it has become. I wish him well for the future.

Independent Review Report to SpaceandPeople plc

Introduction

We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2020 which comprises, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of cash flows, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the related explanatory notes. We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have reached.

Directors' Responsibilities

The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies.

As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union.

Our Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2020 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the AIM Rules for Companies.

Notes to the financial statements

For the 6 months ended 30 June 2020

   1.               General information 

SpaceandPeople plc is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Scotland (registered number SC212277) which is quoted on AIM (ticker: SAL).

This condensed consolidated interim financial information has been reviewed, but not audited, by the auditors, and their independent review is set out earlier in this report. It does not constitute statutory accounts as defined by Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The financial information for the 12 months to 31 December 2019 has been extracted from the statutory accounts for that period. These published accounts were reported on by the auditors without qualification or an emphasis of matter reference, and did not include a statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006, and have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information was approved by the board on 15 October 2020.

   2.               Basis of preparation 

This condensed consolidated interim financial information for the 6 months ended 30 June 2020 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim financial reporting'. The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Group for the period ending 31 December 2019 which were prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union, and those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.

   3.                Accounting policies 

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial information are consistent with those applied in the financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2019.

A reclassification of right of use assets and lease obligations arising from the application of IFRS 16 has been reported within the comparative 6 month period to 30 June 2019. There is no impact on the previously reported profit or equity as a result of the reclassification.

Going Concern

Given the current and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the effect that it has had on the business, the Directors feel that it is appropriate for specific mention to be made in these Interim Results.

As disclosed in the 2019 Financial Statements, the Group had ensured that it had sufficient liquidity as a result of utilising the CBIL and Job Retention schemes as well as carrying out an overhead reduction plan and agreeing payment plans with HMRC and cancelling the final dividend. This has helped the Group manage the financial implications of the pandemic well and cash reserves are better than had been anticipated at this time.

The majority of the Group's clients are now conducting business with us again and given the reduced running costs of the Group and the current cash position, the financial projections beyond October 2020 demonstrate that the Group is able to operate within its current funding arrangements for the foreseeable future. Although the Directors cannot foresee all possible circumstances that may affect the Group in the future, they believe that, taking account of the forecasts, future plans and available cash resources, the Group will have sufficient resources to meet its financial commitments as they fall due.

As such, the Directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

   4.               Segmental reporting 

The Group maintains its head office in Glasgow and an office in Hamburg, Germany. These are reported separately. The Group operates both Promotional Sales and Retail businesses in both the UK and Germany. The Group has determined that these are the principal operating segments as the performance of these segments is monitored separately and reviewed by the board.

The following table presents revenue and profit and loss information regarding the Group's two business segments - Promotional Sales and Retail, split by geographic area. Other segment represents the Groups investments in SpaceandPeople India.

UK promotional revenue and loss before tax in the 6 months to 30 June 2020 has been reduced by GBP464k as a result of a provision made for both possible and confirmed cancellations of bookings as a result of the temporary closure of venues during that period.

   5.          Non-recurring costs 

Management continued to assess the viability of the Indian business during the period. Following a review of the carrying value of assets and liabilities in S&P India Pvt Limited, debtors with the previous book value of GBP497k were deemed to be impaired and were written down in full. The directors consider this adjustment to be a non-recurring cost.

   6.          Prior year adjustment 

In the second half of 2019 a required adjustment was identified to reflect the impact of revenue under recognised as a result of a material error in the application of contract terms in the revenue calculation. This resulted in a prior period adjustment being made in the 2018 results. The 2019 adjustment included GBP26k in relation to the first 6 months and as such revenue has been increased by GBP26k in the six month period to 30 June 2019. The full amount of this revenue has been recovered.
