Operational Highlights

 

·    Focus on sustained profitable growth

o Maintained Operating profit of $13.8m ($13.7m H1 2016)

 

·    Real Time Processing ("RTP"): Continued strong revenue growth of more than 20% due to increase in revenue from Travel, Telecom & E-commerce verticals as compared to the previous year and a new business line acquired in Media & Entertainment vertical.

 

·    Back Office Services ("BOS"): Continued focus on recurring revenue streams and long term customer relationships resulted in strong revenue growth of 18%

 

·    Content Division: Sustainable long term growth prospects for content services:

o Major wins this year with our existing and new customers, which will facilitate growth in the coming months, for educational publishing and professional publishing divisions

o New contract signed with our largest Financial Publishing customer which is an opportunity for growth in existing services along with the     recommencement of some services provided in the past

o Decline of aggregate revenue in project-driven content services ($36m H1 2017, $38m H1 2016) is attributable to conclusion of one-time projects in digital solutions and enterprises divisions. However, the division continues to enjoy steady work streams from its core customers

·    Focused cost saving initiatives:

 

o Savings in "Other expenses" by more than 17% ($4.8m  in H1 2017 vs $5.8m in H1 2016) through rationalization of overheads e.g. travel, communication and professional expenses

o Running a leaner organization using technology effectively and optimizing utilization of the Company's resources

o Leveraging the Company's US based sales team for generating sales pipeline and cross-selling opportunities to all the business verticals of the Group

 

Continued focus on recurring revenue streams from business critical processes and long-term customer relationships.

 

Marc Vassanelli, Chairman of iEnergizer, commented:

 

"Reflecting the continued focus on recurring revenue streams from business critical processes and long term customer relationships, with both existing and new customers, we see real progress with the performance in the first half of this financial year, demonstrated by the growth in revenue, operating profits and profits before taxes.

 

"The Company's healthy cash position, together with its cash generative business model, puts us in a strong position to invest in both organic and inorganic growth opportunities in the periods ahead.

 

 "We expect current market trends to continue through the second half of the year with a continuing focus on underlying operating margins. We believe there is significant opportunity for us to continue to expand the business further using this approach."

IFRS 9 also includes new guidance regarding the application of hedge accounting to better reflect an entity's risk management activities especially with regard to managing non-financial risks. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 (but not yet endorsed in EU), while early application is permitted. The management is currently evaluating the impact that this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

 

·     IFRS15 Revenue from Contract with Customers

 

IFRS 15 supersedes all existing revenue requirements in IFRS (IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue and related interpretations). According to the new standard, revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. IFRS 15 establishes a five step model that will apply to revenue earned from a contract with a customer (with limited exceptions), regardless of the type of revenue transaction or the industry. Extensive disclosures will be required, including disaggregation of total revenue; information about performance obligation; changes in contract asset and liability account balances between periods and key judgments and estimates. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The effective date for adoption of IFRS is annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2018 (but not yet endorsed in EU). The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the above pronouncements on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

 

 

IFRS 16 Leases

 

On January 13, 2016, the International Accounting Standards Board issued the final version of IFRS 16, Leases. IFRS 16 will replace the existing leases Standard, IAS 17 Leases, and related interpretations. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure requirements for lessees. The effective date for adoption of IFRS 16 is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 (but not yet endorsed in EU), though early adoption is permitted for companies applying IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRS 16 on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

 

4.   SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGEMENT IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

 

When preparing the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.

 

The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group's last audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016.

11.  SEGMENT REPORTING

 

Management currently identifies the Group's three services lines real time processing, back office services and content delivery as operating segments on the basis of operations. These operating segments are monitored and strategic decisions are made on the basis of adjusted segment operating results.

The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by reportable segments. The Group's reportable segments are as follows:

 

1.    Real time processing

2.    Back office services

3.    Content delivery

4.    Others

 

The measurement of each segment's revenues, expenses and assets is consistent with the accounting policies that are used in preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. In addition, two minor operating segments, for which the quantitative thresholds have not been met, are currently combined below under 'Others'. Segment information can be analysed as follows for the reporting periods under review:

These non-current financial assets and liabilities, current financial assets and liabilities have been recorded at their respective carrying amounts as the management considers the fair values to be not materially different from their carrying amounts recognised in the statement of financial positions as these are expected to realise within one year from the reporting dates. Derivative financial instruments, recorded at fair value through profit and loss, are recorded at their respective fair values on the reporting dates.

 

 

13.  FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

No financial assets/liabilities have been valued using level 1 and 3 fair value measurements.

16.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 March 2016 and 2015.
