CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Results
Group revenue in the six months to 30 June 2021 increased by approximately 14% to GBP19,262,000 compared to GBP16,927,000 in the six months to 30 June 2020.
There was a 9% increase in gross profit from GBP5,556,000 to GBP6,066,000. Gross profit margin decreased to 31.5% compared to 32.8% in the prior period primarily as a result of increased supplier and freight costs, not all of which could be passed onto customers.
Operating expenses decreased marginally from GBP4,078,000 to GBP4,063,000 in the six months to 30 June 2021 due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, in particular restricting travel and exhibitions as well as reduced inventory storage costs.
As a result of the above, there was a significant increase in operating profit to GBP2,003,000 compared to GBP1,478,000 in the prior year period.
Finance costs were GBP96,000 in the six months to 30 June 2021. This compared to a cost of GBP69,000 in the prior year period.
The profit before taxation for the period was GBP1,907,000 compared to GBP1,409,000 last year, a 35% increase.
There was a tax charge of GBP305,000 during the period compared to GBP268,000 in the prior period. This reflected the increased level of profitability.
Net profit for the period to 30 June 2021 was GBP1,602,000 compared to GBP1,141,000 in the six months to 30 June 2020.
Basic earnings per share in the six months to 30 June 2021 was 31.2 pence per share compared to 22.7 pence per share in the prior period.
Net assets at 30 June 2021 increased by approximately 22% to GBP18,568,000 against GBP15,266,000 at 30 June 2020.
Cash and cash equivalents were GBP5,850,000 at 30 June 2021 which compared to GBP6,322,000 at 30 June 2020. The purchase of the land in Castle Bromwich utilised GBP1,425,000 of cash as previously announced. We continued to carefully manage cash and cash equivalents through the control of our working capital.
Net cash after borrowings was GBP2,144,000 against GBP5,289,000 at 30 June 2020, the movement was primarily the result of the purchase of the land at a cost of GBP2,850,000 in April 2021 and related development costs to date. This was coupled with the return to a more normalised level of stock holding, other than bicycles, following the lower levels held at 30 June 2020.
Trading update
To improve transparency we have divided the Group into 4 key reporting segments:
Toys, Sports and Leisure
Toys, Sports and Leisure revenue includes sales from all wheeled and other toys, outdoor sports and leisure ranges, including golf. Revenue grew by approximately 9% to GBP7,539,000 compared to GBP6,936,000 in the same period last year despite a very strong comparative during lockdown.
I n our licensed property ranges, Paw Patrol, Nerf and Peppa Pig were significantly ahead of the prior period. Other licences, such as Trolls and Toy Story, reduced following movie releases in previous years.
In own brands, sales of Hedstrom outdoor play products and Kickmaster football training along with uMoVe and Stunted scooters were all ahead of the previous year to date period.
Revenue from our Ben Sayers golf business was also considerably ahead of the prior year period and the forward order book remains strong.
Bicycles
The bicycles segment comprises all bicycle turnover from independent bicycle dealer (IBD), national retailer and online customers for bicycles with a 12" wheel and above but excludes electric bicycles. Revenue of GBP5,489,000 (2020 - GBP5,550,000) was broadly in line with the prior period with the exception being our lightweight children's bicycle range Squish, which was materially ahead of the same period last year.
Both IBD and national retailer demand continued to be very strong but as we reported in our AGM statement, our greatest challenge continues to be to receive sufficient stock of bicycles to maintain timely supply to our customers.
Despite these supply chain issues the sales order book for bicycles remains exceptionally strong at over GBP20 million.
Home & Garden
Revenue from our Home & Garden segment, which comprises sales made predominantly by our Expressco direct to consumer business, was GBP4,216,000 (2020 - GBP3,704,000), approximately 14% ahead of the previous year period despite the relatively poor weather prior to June 2021, with May 2021 being the fourth wettest on record and coldest since 1996, supply chain issues in June and a strong comparative period. However, we performed well in a number of categories, most notably gazebos, party tents, heating, garden storage and various other home categories.
We continue to invest in our key home & garden websites; Garden Comforts by Garden & Camping ( www.garden-camping.com ) and At Home Comforts by Jack Stonehouse ( www.jackstonehouse.com ) and have recruited additional digital marketing and product development/buying resources for the second half of the year which we expect to have a positive impact in 2022 and beyond.
eMobility
The eMobility segment includes revenue derived from sales of ebicycles (Falcon, Dawes, Claud Butler and Elswick), escooters (Li-Fe and Wired) and mobility scooters (Pro Rider). There was significant revenue growth of approximately 174% during the period with revenue of GBP2,018,000 to 30 June 2021 compared to GBP737,000 in the prior year period.
We have been very pleased with the growth in both ebikes and escooters and, subject to changes in Government legislation with regards to escooters, anticipate further growth in this area.
Mobility scooter revenues were approximately 16% behind the prior year and continued to be most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Outlook
The challenges previously reported have continued over the last two months since our AGM update. Global demand remains high with shipping containers still in short supply. Input costs, having risen significantly during the year to date, have yet to return to more reasonable levels.
We continue to manage these challenges well, where necessary deferring shipments and seeking alternative shipping routes to minimise cost whilst seeking to maintain timely supply of product.
Group revenue to 31 August 2021 was approximately GBP27.6 million compared to GBP24.2 million for same period in the prior year.
Therefore, the outlook for the remainder of 2021 remains positive and the Board are confident that with revenue to 31 August 14% ahead of the prior year and a current sales order book of approximately GBP30 million (2020 - GBP11.9 million), the Group will deliver another strong year.
Dividend
Due to the strong performance of the Company in the first half of the year we are declaring a 10% increase in the interim dividend to 3.43p per share (2020 - 3.12p per share) payable on or about 15 November 2021. We will continue to review our dividend strategy and pay a progressive dividend where profits permit. The ex-dividend date will be 7 October 2021 and the record date 8 October 2021.
Board update
As previously announced, the Company are actively seeking an additional Non-Executive Director who will enhance the existing skills of the Board.
Property update
Following the acquisition of land adjacent to the Company's Birmingham premises in April 2021, we are pleased to report that the existing buildings have been demolished and the site cleared. Planning permission is shortly expected to be granted and the tender process is nearing conclusion. Construction works are expected to commence thereafter, we expect the construction cost to be in the region of GBP4m due to rising material costs and we are aware that there is currently a delay in sourcing certain building materials, particularly steel and cladding. The Board will keep investors informed of future developments.
Investor presentation
The interim results presentation for investors will be posted on the Company's website. Investors are encouraged to contact the Company with any questions about the business by telephone, using the website or by emailing our dedicated shareholder email address investorrelations@tandemgroup.co.uk .
