("Barkby" or the "Company")

 

Interim Results   for the 26 weeks ended 31 December 2020

 

The Barkby Group PLC (AIM:BARK), the diversified business group, announces its unaudited interim results for the period ended 31 December 2020.

 

Charles Dickson, Executive Chairman of the Barkby Group, commented:

 

"Barkby has weathered the COVID-19 pandemic largely due to the success of our highly cash generative commercial property development business. Activity within that division is returning to pre-pandemic levels with a number of new opportunities in the pipeline.

 

As the economy reopens, our pubs and coffee business are poised for significant growth and a return to profitability. All of our pubs opened on the 12th of April for outside service only and trading has been very encouraging. We are also seeing strong accommodation bookings for May 17th onwards, which is a positive sign for future demand. 

 

The Group's investments in SleepHub and Verso Biosense are performing well with both businesses recently announcing significant new collaboration agreements.

 

Our diversified structure and strategy has allowed us to support the most heavily impacted businesses without a significant increase in external bank debt or equity funding from shareholders.  As previously announced, the Tarncourt lending facility, which was put in place at the point of the IPO, has been increased to £5m to provide further liquidity.

 

The Group is in a strong position to benefit from the further lifting of government lockdown restrictions. We look forward to the next 12 months with increasing confidence, while recognising uncertainties remain."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

I am pleased to announce the interim results for The Barkby Group PLC for the period ended 31 December 2020.

 

Over the last six months our primary focus has been the wellbeing of our staff and customers, and I would like to thank our team for their unwavering commitment during this unprecedented period. Despite the obvious challenges that the first half of the year presented, the team worked hard to position the business appropriately and we are looking forward to the future with confidence as the economy begins to unlock.

 

During the six months to 31 December 2020 our pub venues reopened twice, in July and December, following the lifting of the UK Government restrictions in place at that time.  The Board was encouraged by these reopening processes, which saw customers returning across all venues, demonstrating the popularity and resilience of our venues. The Board believes that this is a positive indicator for when we are able to fully reopen.

 

The opportunities that Barkby is seeing in the hospitality sector, in terms of available sites and potential business acquisitions, are even stronger than the Board had anticipated at the time of the Company's admission to AIM. The Board is confident that the current dynamics in the hospitality property market will allow the Group to secure new sites at significantly reduced rents and with lower capital costs per site.

 

All of our pubs have now reopened for outside service only and early trading has been very encouraging. We are also seeing strong bookings from 17 May onwards and the Board is optimistic that trading conditions will remain strong over the summer months due to pent up demand and staycations.

 

At Centurian, a contactless test drive procedure was implemented in response to lockdown restrictions, including personalised videos sent to customers before site visits. A "click and collect" sales model proved to be effective, and in many cases produced faster purchase decisions. We also invested in our digital marketing and social media platforms, which has aided the revenue growth.

 

Centurian was profitable at EBITDA level for the 26-week period to 31 December 2020 and trade remains strong, however given the uncertainty around consumer behavior we will continue to monitor performance carefully.

 

The Group also continues to deliver on its strategy of investing in growth businesses with the ability to disrupt. Investments in SleepHub and Verso Biosense are performing well, with significant commercial progress being made at both companies. I am particularly excited about the potential of both businesses to supplement Group earnings for FY2022.

 

Our liquidity remains strong and the diversification of the business means that the Group is in a strong position to benefit from the lifting of government restrictions. I look forward to the next 12 months with increasing confidence.

 

Current Trading

 

Further to our trading update of 3 March 2021, the Group makes the following updates:

 

Commercial Property Development

 

We are seeing the market return to pre-pandemic levels and we have six major tenants due to sign agreements to lease units in two of our pipeline development sites. We are also seeing more opportunity in the market and are looking to significantly grow our development pipeline over the next six months.

 

Saffron Walden

 

The land was acquired by the Company in 2010 and is still held at book cost. A series of successful planning applications have been made since the land was acquired, and the site now has planning permission for the construction of 35 residential units. We have exchanged contracts to sell the site for c.£2.85m which will result in a profit on sale of £1.8m, which is expected to be recognised in the current financial year. Completion of the sale is expected during the summer of 2021.

 

Wellingborough

 

We have made a further planning application to add a drive-thru fast-food restaurant on the front of the site to meet a pre-identified requirement from a national branded operator. Construction is due to start in autumn 2021.

 

Maldon

 

We have now submitted a planning application to develop a 15,400 sq. ft. mixed-use retail and trade scheme at the site. We are planning to start construction towards the end of the year.

 

Huntingdon

 

We submitted a planning application for a 30,000 sq. ft trade scheme at Huntingdon last year and have subsequently amended the application to take into account the change in tenant requirements. We expect to receive planning this year and commence works in 12 months' time.

 

Further opportunities

 

We are currently in legal negotiation to acquire a further development site in the South East. We are also actively exploring opportunities to significantly expand the real estate side of our business, which we believe is core to the Group's business and where we see significant growth opportunities.

 

 

Barkby Pubs

 

G iven the recent Government guidance of 17th May for reopening indoor hospitality, we will be in a strong position to benefit from restricted international travel, staycations, pent up demand for hospitality and changing consumer behavior.

 

Workshop Coffee

 

We are seeing a very encouraging pickup in wholesale revenues as venues reopen. We are planning to reopen two of our retail locations around the 17 May as lockdown restrictions are lifted.  Whilst the pandemic has seen excellent growth in Workshop's online platform, the Board are optimistic that we can also return to strong growth across our retail business once restrictions are lifted fully.

 

 

Life Sciences

 

Cambridge Sleep Sciences Ltd ('CSS')

 

Disruption to sleep during the COVID-19 pandemic has been widely reported. According to The Telegraph, the British Sleep Society found 70% of British people aged 40 to 63 have reported changes to their sleep patterns during the pandemic. 

 

The need for help to restore natural sleep patterns has never been greater and the opportunity for CSS is significant. P&S Intelligence state that the global sleeping aids market size was $78.7 billion in 2019, and it is projected to witness a CAGR of 7.1% during the period 2020 to 2030.

 

Since our last update, SleepHub has announced three new partnerships to enable it to capitalise on this market opportunity.

 

Probitas Technologies, a specialist IT distributor across EMEA, will initially be offering SleepHub to the Portuguese, Spanish and French markets. Health and wellbeing ecosystem creators, Nexus Digital Technology, will make SleepHub available as part of their health and wellbeing app. Finally, My Benefits World will be making SleepHub available to thousands of employees through its online employee benefits solution. 

 

These partnerships follow the recent announcement of the new collaboration agreement between CSS and Parkinson's Concierge, to help address sleep issues associated with Parkinson's Disease.

 

We are exploring licensing opportunities for the IP of SleepHub. We have had discussions with several potential partners and see this as a significant revenue source as we develop the IP further.  CSS is currently developing a second generation of SleepHub products and expects these to be available in Q3 2021. These will likely include wireless earbuds, a CSS App and further technology enhancements to the product experience.

 

 

Verso Biosense Ltd

 

Our female health investment, Verso Biosense, has continued to make excellent progress. Engineering breakthroughs have allowed us to progress faster than expected, resulting in major improvements in next generation chip sets, monitoring functions, electronics and garment design. We will be moving into a clinical study in Q2 2021.

 

Since our last update we have announced partnerships with London's Women Clinic and Homerton University Hospital.  Both parties will collaborate with Verso, using its uterine monitoring device to refine the technology and biosensing platform to meet the needs of its fertility patients. Verso's platform captures critical in-vivo, biosensing data for optimisation and personalisation of IVF treatment, providing actionable insights for clinicians and patients.

 

 

Liquidity

 

We have managed cash tightly through all three national lockdowns and have increased cash headroom by refinancing the current £3.5m Tarncourt facility into a new £5m facility with Tarncourt, with an expiry of 30 June 2023.

 

Furthermore, the Group has taken a £450k loan secured against the freehold of the Wellingborough site from James Dickson, a significant shareholder in the Company and CEO of Workshop Coffee.

 

The Group currently has net cash available of c.£1.5m as at 31 March 2021. The Board have taken the steps of consulting with their major shareholders regarding a potential equity raise and our shareholders have confirmed their continued support should the Board wish to raise further capital.

 

 

Summary

 

The Group continues to deliver on its strategy to accelerate and maximise opportunities within its existing businesses and to invest in exciting businesses with the ability to disrupt.  Having weathered the COVID-19 pandemic we now look forward to trading conditions improving across the most impacted parts of our business. 

 

The diversification of the business means that the Group is in a strong position to benefit from the lifting of government lockdown restrictions.  Early trading signs are positive and we expect further improvements as restrictions loosen further in the coming weeks and months.

 

We would like to thank all our employees, suppliers, shareholders and other stakeholders for their continued support during the period and into the future and we look forward to the next 12 months with confidence, while recognising uncertainties remain.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

26 weeks ended 31 December 2020

 

1.  GENERAL

 

These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements are for the 26 weeks ended 31 December 2020 (3 July 2020 to 31 December 2020).  They do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the 15 month period ended 2 July 2020 (1 April 2019 to 2 July 2020), which were prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union ("EU").

 

The statutory accounts for the 15 month period ended 2 July 2020 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies.  Those accounts have received an unqualified audit report and did not contain statements or matters to which the auditors drew attention under the Act.

 

The Directors are satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.  Accordingly, these interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors are of the opinion that the Company has sufficient funds to meet their ongoing working capital and committed capital expenditure requirements.  A detailed disclosure outlining going concern considerations was provided in the statutory accounts for the 15 month period ended 2 July 2020.  The Directors performed their going concern review as at 31 March 2021 and have concluded that no matters have arisen since that date to change the conclusion of the review.

 

The interim financial information is unaudited, no dividend has been declared or paid in this interim period.

 

2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The principal accounting policies and methods of computation have remained unchanged from those used in the preparation of the financial statements for the 15 month period ended 2 July 2020 and are expected to be used for the financial statements for the 52 week period ending 1 July 2021.

In July 2020, the Group borrowed £1m from HSBC under the UK Government's Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme.  The loan provided extra liquidity to support, in particular, the Group's Hospitality and Consumer division after a period of severe disruption due to Covid-19.

 

The completion in August 2020 of the Group's Hastings development and subsequent collection of the resulting trade receivables enabled other loans totalling £4.2m at 2 July 2020 to be repaid in the period ended 31 December 2020.

 

The Group has access to a term loan facility with Tarncourt Investments LLP, a related party.  During the period ended 31 December 2020, the Group drew down £1.6m from the facility.  The £3.5m facility was due to expire in July 2021, but has been refinanced into a new £5 million facility which now expires on 30 June 2023.  The balance owed on this facility is presented as a non-current liability at both 2 July 2020 and 31 December 2020.
