WORTHINGTON GROUP PLC
Interim Financial Statements
for the half year ended
30 September 2011
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
The company recorded a loss of GBP187,000 (2010: GBP162,000) for the period after all head office and pension scheme costs. This includes non-cash charges in the period of GBP55,000 (2010: GBP121,000) in relation to pension scheme finance costs and GBP61,000 in relation to share based payments.
We are pleased to report that Trimmings by Design, our associated company, continued to trade profitably in the period and we recognised a profit of GBP19,000 (2010: loss GBP39,000) in the period. In addition we also received a dividend distribution of GBP44,000 (2010: GBPnil) in the period.
All of our tenants have now vacated the Keighley site and the buildings have been completely demolished in readiness for development and to remove any requirement for us to pay rates.
On 1(st) November we advised you that additional information had been requested by the local authority planners to enable them to proceed with our application. We, together with our architects and consultants, have met with the planners to discuss their further requirements and that information is being prepared so that our application can progress. We are in discussions with potential developers and JV partners with regard to the development and have received some useful input as to other potential opportunities for the site which may modify the content of our planning application going forward. We will notify the market if we revise our application and will accordingly advise you of any significant changes. Whilst receipt of planning permission is clearly taking longer than we had hoped we remain confident that the site will gain permission for a very significant development which is in the interests of the local area and a significant opportunity for Worthington.
We continue to monitor the pension scheme investments and liabilities, which represent the key risk to the company at present. Details of our principal risk factors can be found in the director's report on page 4 of the 2011 Annual Report and Accounts. There have been no significant changes to the principal risks in the half year to 30 September 2011.
We are in discussions with and have identified a number of potential acquisition opportunities but we must accept that our bargaining position as to the company's potential value does to some extent depend on the result of our planning application. Again when we have anything significant to report we will advise shareholders accordingly.
We remain positive as to the outcome of our planning application and that the other opportunities we are considering will secure the future of Worthington
