Final Results

Mavinwood PLC 14 March 2007 Mavinwood plc Preliminary results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2006 Financial highlights: 2006 2005 £'000 £'000 Turnover 42,453 15,264 Profit before taxation 1,589 528 Underlying adjusted profit before tax * 4,958 1,495 Basic earnings per share 0.10p 0.05p Adjusted fully diluted earnings per share* 0.80p 0.53p +51% Acquisitions completed during the year: Wansdyke for £11m on 10 February Independent Inspections for an initial consideration of a net £10m on 18 July Mono for an initial consideration of £6m on 7 September *before goodwill amortisation, share based payments charge and notional interest on contingent consideration Kevin Mahoney, Chief Executive of Mavinwood said: 'These are very good results as we continue to build strong positions in both our targeted markets, emergency repair and document handling. The three acquisitions we made during the year are performing well and as with all our acquisitions are benefiting from continuity of senior management. We anticipate further benefits as we continue to integrate the businesses. Our net debt is £17.6m which gives us significant scope to make further acquisitions in cash. When we floated on AIM in 2004 our strategy was to build a market leading UK support services business in our chosen sectors. These results confirm that we are delivering on this strategy' Mavinwood plc Kevin Mahoney 020 7661 9650 Mike Vincent 020 7661 9651 Threadneedle Communications John Coles 020 7936 9604 BACKGROUND Mavinwood was launched on AIM on 5 November 2004 and is pursuing a buy and build strategy in the support services sector. The strategy is to acquire and develop support services businesses which have the potential for growth, either organically or in combination with other complementary businesses. The focus is on the emergency repair (especially where there is an insured repair) and document handling sectors. CHIEF EXECUTIVES REVIEW RESULTS Turnover in 2006 was £42,453,000 (2005:£15,264,000) and the profit before tax was £1,589,000 (2005: £528,000). The profit before goodwill amortisation, share based payments charge and notional interest on contingent consideration was £4,958,000, (see Profit before taxation section below) (2005: £1,495,000). The basic earnings per ordinary share were 0.10p, (2005: 0.05p). However, the measure we focus on as a Board is the fully diluted earnings per share before goodwill amortisation, share based payments charge and notional interest on contingent consideration. At this level, the earnings per share for 2006 were 0.80p compared to 0.53p in 2005. This is an impressive growth of some 51%. At 31 December 2006, net debt of the Group amounted to £17,649,000 (2005: £4,335,000). The Mavinwood Group comprises two divisions, Emergency Repair and Document Handling. EMERGENCY REPAIR 2006 2005 £'000 £'000 Sales ANSA * 25,884 12,973 Independent Inspections/Mono ** 8,631 - -------- -------- Total 34,515 12,973 ======== ======== EBITA*** ANSA * 3,843 1,589 Independent Inspections/Mono ** 944 - -------- -------- Total 4,787 1,589 ======== ======== * ANSA 6 months in 2005 ** Independent Inspections 5 1/2 months and Mono 4 months in 2006 *** Excluding share based payments charges The significant increase in sales and profit in this division is principally due to the fact that ANSA was only included for six months in 2005 compared to a full twelve months in 2006 and that the 2006 figures include Independent Inspections for five and a half months and Mono for four months. This division includes three businesses which serve principally the insured repair sector. Approximately 90% of sales in 2006 were to the leading insurance companies and we also service a range of housing associations and commercial companies. All three businesses share a common business process which is: •Take the emergency call from the customer via the insurer •Arrange a survey to validate or repudiate the claim and cost out the repair •Undertake the repair either by directly employed labour or sub contractors ANSA specialises in drainage surveys and repair; Independent Inspections in flooring surveys and restoration and Mono in building fabric surveys and repairs, often due to water damage. ANSA and Independent Inspections are national businesses and Mono is currently a regional business in the North West. There is some customer overlap between the businesses but one of our opportunities moving forward is to offer all our services to a wider range of customers. All these businesses operate to high service standards. Examples of key performance indicators that are monitored on a continuous basis are: •Response times in terms of contacting a policyholder after they report an insured event •Courtesy of staff and customer satisfaction •Average cost per claim There are integration benefits to flow between the businesses which have begun in late 2006. A range of integration projects are underway including: •Assessing and optimising IT platforms •Purchasing initiatives •Extending Mono's reach across the country •Optimising back office functions •Reviewing marketing opportunities and widening the service offering As well as good organic growth within the division, we will continue to look for bolt on acquisitions which would further enhance our offering. Turning to the highlights within each operation: ANSA ANSA's volume of instructions grew satisfactorily comparing 2006 with calendar 2005. The business tends to produce higher volumes in the second half of the year. From October we were also awarded 100% of volumes from one leading insurer instead of 50% and this arrangement will run for three years. Operating profit at ANSA has increased due to volume growth, cost reductions and productivity gains. Customers have benefited from strong performance in claims validation, service delivery and cost control. ANSA has extended its drainage services to a wider range of customers in the commercial sector. This initiative has had minimal impact in 2006 but good volumes of new work are coming through in 2007 to supplement business flowing from the renewal of a contract with a major high street retailer for 3 years. ANSA also owns a small business offering Health and Safety training. Revenues from ANSA Training dipped in 2006 as a number of trainers left the business. INDEPENDENT INSPECTIONS Independent Inspections' initial contribution was hampered by delays in bringing on new business from insurers and a weak volume of instructions in the last few weeks of the year. Whereas volumes through the year were running above 2005 levels, in December volumes dropped below those of December 2005. This was an industry wide issue and not peculiar to Independent Inspections. A series of profit improvement opportunities are being implemented in Independent Inspections in the second quarter. MONO Mono has progressed strongly under our ownership. Volumes are well up over the comparable four months in 2005 and the business is looking to widen the postcodes it covers outwards from the Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds area. The number of full time employees has increased from 337 at 7 September to 373 at 31 December 2006 and has increased further since the year end. DOCUMENT HANDLING 2006 2005 £'000 £'000 Sales Restore * 4,162 2,291 Wansdyke ** 3,776 - -------- -------- Total 7,938 2,291 ======== ======== EBITA*** Restore * 1,160 614 Wansdyke ** 1,258 - -------- -------- Total 2,418 614 ======== ======== * Restore 7 months in 2005 ** Wansdyke 11 months in 2006 *** Excluding share based payments charges The document handling division serves a wide range of customers, including law firms, corporates of varying sizes, financial services companies, councils and health trusts. Our customers are mostly based in London and the South across to Bristol and South Wales. The majority of sales are the storage and retrieval of archive boxes but also individual files and other material such as magnetic media and film. Scanning of documents on a selective basis is also offered to clients. Shredding of documents at the end of their useful lives is currently outsourced, although this would form a logical product extension. The key non-financial performance indicators are: •% accuracy in retrieving items •% of items retrieved in accordance with terms of service, such as same day or next day delivery We are well advanced with our integration plans for Restore and Wansdyke. Approximately £96,000 of integration costs have been charged against Wansdyke's profits in 2006. The Restore operating system of bar coding is being applied at Wansdyke and the back office functions are increasingly being integrated. Total employees at Wansdyke have dropped from 75 at February 2006 to 63 at 31 December 2006 by natural wastage as systems have become more automated. We operate a combination of freehold and leasehold sites at Wansdyke and Restore respectively. Due to the absence of rental charges, the return on sales at Wansdyke is higher than that at Restore. The market for the physical storage of archives continues to grow well in excess of GDP, with especially strong growth in sectors such as professional services. Overall volume growth in Restore and Wansdyke compared to the comparable period in 2005 was 7%. We still have significant amounts of undeveloped space at our underground storage facilities near Bath which we will be looking to fit out over the next couple of years CENTRAL COSTS Central costs have increased from £495,000 to £969,000. The Group has been fully operational throughout 2006 whereas in 2005 the Company was a cash shell for the first five months of that year. INTEREST Net interest payable amounted to £1,436,000 as we borrowed to fund the acquisitions of Wansdyke and Mono. Included within the net interest charge is £158,000 representing the notional interest on contingent consideration due on the acquisitions of Independent Inspections and Mono. The discount rate applied in this calculation was 7.9% PROFIT BEFORE TAXATION The profit before tax for the year ended 31 December 2006 was £1,589,000 (2005: £528,000). However, the Directors believe that an adjusted measure of profit before tax and earnings per share provides shareholders with a more appropriate representation of the underlying earnings derived from the Group's business. The items adjusted for in arriving at that underlying level are as follows: 2006 2005 £'000 £'000 Profit before tax 1,589 528 Amortisation of goodwill 2,172 860 Share based payments charge 1,039 107 Notional interest on contingent consideration 158 - ---------- ---------- Adjusted profit before tax 4,958 1,495 ========== ========== Neither the amortisation of goodwill nor the notional interest on the contingent consideration attracts any tax relief. The share based payments charge only attracts a potential benefit through deferred tax. TAXATION Due to the distortions caused by the non-deductibility of goodwill and the notional interest on the contingent consideration, the reported tax charge is 75.2% (2005:80.9%). However, the underlying tax rate during 2006 was 30.4%, as a percentage of adjusted profit before taxation. (2005: 30.2%). EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) Basic EPS is 0.10p, which compares with 0.05p in 2005. Basic EPS adjusted as above was 0.89p (2005: 0.56p). Assuming the exercise of all options and awards under the LTIP plus the conversion of the convertible A shares at an average price in 2006 of 13.93p (2005: 10.05p), the fully diluted adjusted EPS becomes 0.80p (2005:0.53p) an increase of 51%. SHARE ISSUES New equity was issued on three occasions in 2006. • 9.8m shares were allotted on 31 May at 11.0p to the vendors of Restore in settlement of contingent consideration due. This amount of £1,075,000 represented half the contingent consideration with the remainder settled in cash. • 100m new shares were placed on 17 July with existing and new shareholders at 12.0p per share. The proceeds of £12m were used to fund the cash element of the acquisition of Independent Inspections of £9m. The remainder or over-raise of approximately £1.8m after costs was used to reduce debt in the short term. A further 7.8m shares were allotted to the vendor of Independent Inspections with a value of £1m. • 2m shares were allotted at 15p per share on 7 September as part consideration for the acquisition of Mono. ACQUISITIONS Details of all the Group's acquisitions are set out in note 5 to this announcement. The total initial investment in these acquisitions was £30.4 million with estimated contingent consideration payable in cash of £5.0 million, subject to meeting profit improvement objectives. The maximum amount of contingent consideration payable is £5 million. During the year the Company paid £2,150,000 in contingent consideration relating to the 2005 acquisition of Restore. Approximately £0.5 million may be paid as contingent consideration in 2007. The Group will continue to pursue acquisition targets that support its product and service development. BALANCE SHEET Net assets increased to £42,075,000 in the year reflecting the share issues to part fund the acquisitions plus the profit in the year of £394,000. Goodwill on the five acquisitions, at 31 December 2006 was £52,418,000 (2005: £31,224,000). Tangible fixed assets totalled £11,084,000 (2005: £1,996,000) principally comprising the freehold underground storage facilities at Wansdyke, but also computer systems, storage racking and vehicles. Operating working capital (excluding cash) amounted to a net £2,566,000 at 31 December 2006. Net debt at the year end totalled £17,649,000 after deferred financing costs of £310,000. In order to part fund our acquisitions, we operate a number of facilities led by Allied Irish Banks, plc (AIB) which currently run through to September 2011. At 31 December 2006, the Group had unutilised committed bank facilities totalling £3,300,000 in addition to cash of £ 1,850,000. CASH FLOW The net cash inflow from operating activities after capital expenditure was £3,564,000, (2005: £1,027,000). This inflow is after taking account of an outflow of £2,369,000 in the year on working capital. This outflow is partially due to an outflow of VAT at Independent Inspections and Mono totalling £937,000. The VAT related to the sales of their respective office buildings just prior to acquisition. Gross capital expenditure totalled £1,168,000, (2005: £182,000). Significant expenditures comprised the fitting out of empty space in the underground storage areas at Wansdyke and installing new racking at both Restore and Wansdyke. At ANSA, we acquired the trade and assets of a small sub-contractor The Drain Technicians, for £143,000. In November 2006 we sold and leased back the vehicle fleet at Independent Inspections. This transaction realised £0.7 million in cash and will also result in operating savings on the fleet going forward, CHANGES IN UK ACCOUNTING STANDARDS With effect from 1 January 2006, the Group adopted FRS 20, Share Based Payments. FRS 20 seeks to reflect the cost of share based remuneration, including share option schemes, in the profit and loss account. The effect of FRS 20 has been reflected both in 2006 and in a restatement of 2005. OUTLOOK The Group ended the year with two well established divisions and a current market capitalisation in excess of £80 million. Integration benefits are coming through in the two divisions as well as good underlying organic growth. The emergency repair and document handling industries continue to grow strongly in 2007 and all our businesses are trading in line with expectations. We still plan to add further complementary businesses to these operations on a selective basis and given the cash generative qualities of the business, there is significant scope to acquire further businesses for cash.

Adjusted earnings per share which are before goodwill amortisation, share based payments charge and notional interest on contingent consideration have been presented in addition to the basic earnings per share since, in the opinion of the directors, this provides shareholders with a more appropriate representation of the underlying earnings derived from the Group's businesses.

The goodwill arising from the three acquisitions in 2006 is being amortised over 20 years. The amount of contingent consideration expected to be payable in respect of the acquisition of Restore was reduced by £0.5 million between 31 December 2005 and May 2006 due to profit levels attained.
