The integration of the newly acquired EOS business continues as planned and we remain excited about the long-term prospects of this business as the Welfare to Work arena continues to be at the heart of government policy.

We have made an encouraging start to 2011 and believe the Group remains well placed to report another year of solid progress."

Chairman's Statement

 

I was appointed Chairman of the Staffline Group on 19 May 2011 so it is with great pleasure that I write my first statement.

 

The Group has continued to thrive in what remains a challenging environment, one which has seen mixed trading conditions for a number of our customers.  Although growth in this period has slowed compared to the previous period, our performance continues to outstrip many of our peers with revenues for the six months up by 45% to £120.9 million and profit before tax up 38% to £2.9 million. This performance continues to highlight the stable nature of our business and the long term confidence many of our customers have in our services. 

 

The shape and size of the Group continues to evolve with the number of OnSites growing by 6 to 141 during the six month period and the acquisition of EOS taking us into the Welfare to Work arena where we believe good long term growth is achievable. 

 

I fully expect us to have further opportunities to expand our business through both organic growth and additional selective bolt-on acquisitions.  We remain keen to explore possible initiatives that complement our OnSite model and will continue to evaluate additional opportunities that exist in training and Welfare to Work programmes.

 

I am delighted with the progress of the Group, which continues to benefit from opportunities that exist around our outsourced model. We continue to develop strong relationships across our customer base, providing both service continuity and excellent revenue visibility.  We look forward to the remainder of the current financial year with confidence.

Chief Executive's Statement

 

Introduction

 

The Group has traded well in the first six months of the current financial year despite the worsening economic climate faced by a number of our customers.  We have however been able to counter this trend through further organic growth and selective acquisitions.  This success is clearly visible in the strong revenue and profit growth most of which we attribute to the take up of our OnSite model. 

 

The continued strength of our business allowed the Board to increase the full year dividend by 100% during 2010.  We intend to support our progressive dividend policy by proposing an interim dividend (payable on 11 November 2011) of 2.9p per share (H1 2010: 2.4p), to shareholders on the register at 14 October 2011, a rise of 21%. 

 

Our established strategy now underpins Staffline's successful track record since flotation:  a strong focus on organic growth complemented by bolt-on acquisitions.  We intend to continue to pursue both of these strategies and believe this approach will continue to deliver opportunities to expand our offering whilst creating further value for our shareholders.

 

 

Acquisitions

 

In April 2011 the Group completed the acquisition of Eos Works Ltd (previously Fourstar Employment and Training Ltd), in some ways our most significant transaction to date.  Eos is one of three organisations with a Department of Work and Pensions awarded Work Programme contract for the Solihull, Birmingham and Black Country area of the West Midlands.  This contract has an expected value of £90 million over a five year period and is the first of a new type of Welfare to Work contract let by the Coalition Government.  Payment is largely made upon successful outcomes rather than on initial service provision.  This suits the culture of Staffline given our strong growth over the past few years on the back of results orientated outcomes for clients.

 

The Group completed two bolt-on acquisitions during the period, of Kelburn Industrial based in the North East and Ethos Recruitment based in Northamptonshire.

 

The Group also announced the acquisition of certain assets and commercial relationships from Arnashade Recruitment Limited ("Arnashade"), following the company's administration on  July 15 2011.  Arnashade, based in Luton, Bedfordshire, specialises in industrial recruitment servicing a number of corporate customers in the Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire area.

 

 

Market Overview

 

PAYE and Travel and Subsistence Schemes:

As previously stated we are continuing to see more schemes being introduced by umbrella companies and labour providers where contractors are deemed to be self-employed, directors of their own Limited Companies, employed through various offshore jurisdictions or employed through 'Pay Day by Pay Day' models.  Most of these methods have been the subject of briefs issued by HMRC this year describing them as non-compliant.  Despite operators of these schemes having a considerable financial advantage over Staffline, a large number of potential customers are starting to realise that 'Pay Day by Pay Day' models do not necessarily deliver a credible legally compliant staffing solution.   Staffline remains, in many cases, the staffing provider of choice.

 

Gangmaster Licencing Authority (GLA):

We continue to fully support the GLA in its efforts to eliminate the unfair exploitation of workers and have lobbied at the highest levels in Government to ensure that the organisation is as far as possible unaffected by cutbacks in Government expenditure. 

 

Health and Safety Systems, ISO 9002 and Investors in People:

Despite an increase this year of over 42% more working hours than H1 2010, Staffline are very pleased to report a reduction on the mid-year accident frequency rate to 0.25.

This is as a result of Staffline's continuous commitment to Health, Safety and the well being of all our workers by continuing to ensure effective training and thorough auditing of our procedures. 

 

Agency Worker Regulations (AWR):

AWR are being introduced on 1 October and require amongst other things that our contractors enjoy broadly the same employment benefits as permanent employees including basic pay, holiday pay and other benefits. This is changing the way we employ people.  However we remain confident that AWR provides us with an opportunity to extend the level of service we offer our clients and will enable us to continue to grow organically.

 

 

Current Trading

 

Staffline continues to grow, albeit at a slower pace than last year.  Trading conditions look set to toughen for the remainder of 2011 with margins remaining under pressure, however our business continues to perform in-line with our expectations.  We have spent considerable time building a business of scale and flexibility, which offers a 'reassurance of quality' under a recognised brand to our customers. 

 

Whilst the broader economic trends are not as strong as the previous year, our track record remains intact and we believe that our business has never been in better shape.

 

The Board is therefore confident that the Group remains well placed to meet market expectations for the full year.

Finance Director's Statement

 

Financial Results

 

Sales revenues have grown by 45% to £120.9m (H1 2010: £83.4m) reflecting the impact of strong demand from existing customers, new business wins in 2010 and 2011 and also the impact of acquisitions. The charge for amortisation of intangible assets has increased by £555,000 to £823,000 during the half year.

 

Gross margin has increased to 11.8% (H1 2010: 11.2%) due to the change in the business mix. Pre-tax profit has increased by 38% to £2.9m (H1 2010: £2.1m).   Post tax profit has improved 40% to £2.1m (H1 2010: £1.5m).

 

Earnings per share

 

Basic earnings per share have increased by 39% to 9.7p (H1 2010: 7.0p).The diluted earnings per share also improved to 9.2p (H1 2010: 6.6p) and the diluted earnings per share before amortisation increased by 64% to 12.6p (H1 2010: 7.7p).

 

Balance sheet and cash flow

 

The Group's balance sheet has strengthened considerably during the first half although net current assets have fallen by £1.8m to £0.6m (H1 2010: £2.4m) due to the impact of the acquisitions and deferred consideration.   The significant growth in trade receivables is due entirely to the growth in sales, with the average number of debtor days remaining steady. The increase in trade payables is due to the growth of the business and the impact of the estimated deferred consideration of acquisitions. The goodwill has increased by £818,000 and intangible assets by £2,815,000 as a result of the acquisitions during the period. The property, plant and equipment increased by £1,148,000 due mainly to assets acquired with Fourstar Group Ltd (now Eos).

 

Due to timing of payments net debt has been eliminated at the period end, with the group having a net £2.4m of cash compared to December 2010 when we had £2.3m net debt.

 

The Group generated £3.9m cash from operations before working capital movement in the first half (H1 2010: £2.5m). Of this amount £2.0m (H1 2010: £0.5m) was used in working capital to fund the growth and £3.4m (H1 2010: £1.3m) was invested in acquisitions which had £8.3m of net cash. In addition corporation tax accounted for £1.2m (H1 2010: £0.4m), interest payments £43,000 (H1 2010: £62,000) and capital expenditure £0.2m (H1 2010: £0.1m).

 

Financing

 

The Group has financing facilities in place to support the future growth of the business. The current facilities include a term loan of £2.2m, repayable in quarterly instalments up to 2013, and an overdraft facility of £10m.

 

At 30 June 2011 the overdraft was undrawn. The average daily bank balance during the first half was a positive cash balance of £1,797,000 compared to an average overdraft of £161,000 last year. The overdraft facility was renewed in March 2011 for a period of 12 months.

 



Employees

 

The average number of employees has increased by 128 to 397 compared to the same period in 2010. Around half of the increase is due to the acquisitions in the first half.

 

We are continuing to invest significant sums in both internal and external training courses for our staff and always promote from within wherever possible. A further 28 members of staff passed their Certificate in Recruitment Practice during the period.

Notes to the interim report

For the six months ended 30 June 2011

 

1    basis of preparation

Staffline Group plc, a Public Limited Company, is incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom.

The interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2011 (including the comparatives for the period ended 30 June 2010 and the year ended 31 December 2010) were approved by the board of directors on September 5th 2011. Under the Security Regulations Act of the EU, amendments to the financial statements are not permitted after they have been approved.

It should be noted that accounting estimates and assumptions are used in the preparation of the interim financial information.  Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge and judgement of current events, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.  The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the interim financial information are set out in note 3 to the interim financial information.

The interim financial information contained within this report does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in the Companies Act 2006.  The full accounts for the year ended 31 December 2010 received an unqualified report from the auditors and did not contain a statement under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.

 

2   Accounting policies

The interim financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. 

 

The principal accounting policies and methods of computation adopted to prepare the interim financial information are consistent with those detailed in the 2010 financial statements.

 

3   critical accounting estimates and judgments

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future.  The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal actual results.  The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next accounting year are as follows:

 

Impairment of goodwill


The annual impairment assessment in respect of goodwill requires estimates of the value-in-use of cash generating units to which goodwill has been allocated to be calculated.  As a result, estimates of future cashflows are required, together with an appropriate discount factor for the purpose of determining the present value of those cashflows.

As part of the acquisition process a forecast is prepared which projects the financial performance of the business over the expected earn out period. These forecasts are reviewed and updated based on actual performance. Part of the cost of the acquisition is dependent on the trading performance of the acquired business following the transaction. The deferred contingent consideration is based on these estimates of the future performance of the acquired business.

5   Earnings per share

The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period. The calculation of the diluted earnings per share is based on the basic earnings per share adjusted to allow for all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Details of the earnings and weighted average number of shares used in the calculations are set out below:

7   acquisitions

On 4 January 2011 the Company acquired the trade and assets of Kelburn Industrial Limited, based in Newcastle and on 14 March 2011 the Company acquired Ethos Recruitment Limited, based in Daventry. Each of these organisations has a great reputation in their local markets and are well-established, professionally run businesses. They will add, in aggregate, around £6m in a full year to the Group's revenues and are expected to make a positive contribution to profitability in 2011. They have been acquired with small upfront payments and profit related payments over the next 18 months.

 

On 21 April 2011 the Company acquired Fourstar Group Limited from the Dutch company Lern Holding B.V, a company registered in the Netherlands, for £3m in cash, plus a deferred payment of £0.3m, satisfied from the Group's existing cash resources.  Fourstar was an incumbent provider of the Flexible New Deal Programme and has secured the Work Programme contract for the West Midlands.  Fourstar is paid for finding work for those claiming Job Seeker Allowance and Incapacity Benefit and keeping them in work. Staffline is well placed to utilise its database of jobs to place people back into work. The acquisition will also bring a strong relationship with the Department for Work and Pensions and provide access to potential new work streams. The acquisition is expected to generate circa £90m of revenue over the next five years, be earnings neutral in the first full year of ownership and earnings enhancing thereafter.  On 20 June 2011 Fourstar changed its name to EOS Works Limited.

On 22 July 2011 certain trade and assets of Arnashade Recruitment Limited were acquired from the receivers for a cash payment.
