Chief Executive's Statement

 

In January 2012, our major European OEM customer commenced factory production of a Dual-Fueltruck incorporating Clean Air Power's technology. It has long been Clean Air Power's objective to be incorporated on a major manufacturer's OEM platform. Traction in the European market is increasing, driven by customer demand. The order bank is growing, new product variants are being launched and new markets are under consideration. Despite the successful launch in January, there was a short term unavoidable break in production during the spring. This was due to the need for product variants for the Swedish and Dutch markets which have now been completed but we are encouraged that production has now recommenced in our customer's factory at an increased rate in order to address their customers' demand.

 

Clean Air Power's 'Genesis-EDGE' product in Europe is also gaining significant momentum due to the compelling drivers in the market place. The price of oil and the continued focus on reducing emissions is contributing to an increased focus and interest in the Dual-Fuel™ product. We have received and delivered 27 orders to a major logistics company and also received orders from Sainsbury's supermarkets for 49 systems during the first half of 2012. The Company also developed and launched a new 'Genesis-EDGE' product for a customer in Europe to meet demand using a Renault Magnum and have taken 50 advance orders. We continue to work with and focus on major fleet operators to demonstrate the benefits of Clean Air Power's Dual-Fuelproducts.

 

In the US significant market demand has been publicly expressed for a Dual-Fuel product with Clean Air Power, although OEM decision making process continues to be very protracted. It was recently announced that Navistar had changed their diesel strategy, has instigated a major management restructure and the Chief Executive has retired. The Directors of Clean Air Power can have no certainty as to the outcome or effect of these changes.

 

Therefore following the success of our own Genesis-EDGE product in Europe, and with a motivation to access the US market without further undue delay, we have decided to launch a Genesis-EDGE product in the US while in parallel continuing discussions with US manufacturers. A technical feasibility study has been completed, and a clear product development plan targeting a product first production in early 2014 has been put in place. The 18 month product development plan will require some updating of our test cell facilities along with certain other investments. The US Class 8 market is larger than the whole of Europe and we are currently evaluating distribution options. The relatively low cost of natural gas in North America is a compelling factor driving customer demand for natural gas vehicles and reduces the reliance on oil from the Middle East, a key objective for the US Government.

 

Group Structure

 

Clean Air Power has three commercial divisions; Dual-Fuel™ vehicle systems, Components and Emissions Reduction systems.

 

1) Dual-Fuel™ Vehicle Systems

 

Clean Air Power's patented Dual-Fuel™ system allows a diesel engine to run on a combination of diesel and natural gas, thereby generating significant reductions in NOx, particulate matter and CO2 emissions as well as generating fuel cost savings for the operator.

 

The technology is currently available in two main variants; the interfaced OEM product, where Clean Air Power's technology is incorporated into vehicles with the manufacturer's cooperation; and the Genesis-EDGE product, where the technology is added as an after market solution by Clean Air Power under its own brand.

 

There are three revenue streams derived from this division:

 

·; Sales of Dual-Fuel™ systems to manufacturers for installation on their production lines

·; Complete Dual-Fuel™ system conversions on a customer's vehicle on an after market basis carried out by Clean Air Power or its agents

·; Revenue from engineering services provided to manufacturers or third parties

 

The first half of this year has seen sales for this division increase by 136% to £3.3m (2011: £1.4m). This increase is due mainly to higher sales of our European OEM interfaced systems, sales of Genesis-EDGE systems in the UK and engineering services provided in the US.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Interfaced OEM Product

 

The Company's European OEM customers interfaced Euro 5 compliant product incorporating Clean Air Power's Dual-Fuel™ technology commenced factory production in January 2012, with initial markets of UK, Sweden and the Netherlands. The vehicles are produced, marketed and supported by the manufacturer.

 

Incorporating Clean Air Power's Dual-Fuel™ technology into these truck engines will deliver significant greenhouse gas emission reductions and fuel cost savings compared with standard diesel engines. Additionally, these Dual-Fuel™ trucks are expected to be approximately 30% more energy efficient than equivalent spark ignited natural gas engines. The engines can use natural or bio-gas as the main fuel and can also operate solely on diesel, an important feature as gas distribution infrastructure is immature in most markets.

 

Euro 5 compliant vehicles will be sold throughout the European Union until the end of 2013 when they will be superseded by Euro 6 compliant engines. Australia & the BRIC countries will be using Euro 5 compliant trucks for several more years.

 

The Company has held discussions with manufacturers regarding the development of a Dual-FuelTM solution for vehicles compliant with the Euro 6 emissions regulations.

 

Genesis-EDGE Vehicle System

 

The 'Genesis-EDGE' system was developed specifically as an after market solution which can be installed without the need for formal co-operation of the engine manufacturers. The solution does not interface directly with the vehicle's engine management system and up to 60% of the diesel normally used by the vehicle is substituted with natural gas. The emissions and fuel savings are therefore lower than would be expected on a fully interfaced system, but still economically attractive in our target markets.

 

The Company has received orders from a major logistics company for 27 systems and 49 systems for Sainsbury's during the first half of 2012. The Company has also successfully developed a new variant of the product, using a Renault Magnum 13 litre truck to meet demand from a new customer in Spain.

 

Following the launch of the Genesis EDGE product in Australia last year it has been necessary to carry out additional product development to deal with the specific operational demands of the market place which we anticipate will be completed in quarter 4 of 2012.

 

In total, 100 systems have been delivered in the first half of 2012 being a mixture of OEM and Genesis EDGE.

 

2) Components Division

 

This division designs and delivers innovative hydraulic valves, natural gas injectors and filters for natural gas engines. These components enable automotive and engine manufacturers to build low-emission spark ignited natural gas vehicles that meet worldwide emissions regulations.

 

This business is relatively mature and supplies manufacturers with parts for their engine production. In addition there are recurring revenues from maintenance and servicing requirements. Sales for 2012 are in line with expectations at £0.5m, being £0.1m lower than the same period last year to June 2011 which had been anticipated. Orders already received for delivery in the second half of 2012 are £0.4m.

 

3) Emissions Reduction Division

 

This division provides systems for large stationary engines incorporating catalysed substrates supplied by specialist manufacturers and can be integrated during the initial installation or retro-fitted to older existing engines and plants.

 

This division also supplies catalytic converters for vehicles. These units have been used on 7.6L natural gas engines to control emissions to deliver sub EPA2010 emission levels for their truck and bus operating customers.

 

The year to date sales are lower than expected due to performance issues with the base spark ignited natural gas engine which was manufactured by our customer. The Board does not expect to receive any further orders for this product in the foreseeable future.

 

Financial Review

 

Sales for the first six months in our key Dual-Fuel™ division have significantly outperformed last year. Sales of our Components Division are in line with expectations while the smaller Emissions Reduction Division has seen sales lower than expected following delays in obtaining orders from a key customer.

 

The six month period to 30 June 2012 has seen revenue increase substantially to £3.9m from £2.1m for the same period in 2011. This has been due mainly to a strong performance in our Dual-Fuel™ vehicle systems division which includes revenue from engineering development.

 

Gross profit increased to £2.1m from £1.2m in June 2011, whilst gross margin fell slightly to 54% (2011:57%).

 

Operating loss reduced to £0.6m representing a £0.7m improvement on the £1.3m loss for the same period in 2011. This is due mainly to the increase in sales of Dual-Fuel™ vehicle systems.

 

The net result after tax for the period was a loss of £0.6m, a £0.7m decrease on the £1.3m loss for the same period in 2011. The basic loss per share for the period was 0.44p (2011: 1.67p).

 

Investments in fixed assets were £0.7m for the period compared with £1.0m in the first half of 2011. The majority of these amounts relate to capitalisation of labour and expenses incurred in developing new products.

 

The cash position as at 30 June 2012 was £1.5m compared with £2.4m as at the end of 2011.

 

The cash position is lower than had been expected, mainly due to slower sales of our Genesis-EDGE product in Australia and the break in production with the European manufacturer as discussed above. Consequently the Board are considering further financing options to ensure that it can meet its future working capital requirements and these are discussed in note 2.

 

Outlook

 

The first half of 2012 has been the most successful for the Company since its IPO in 2006. The commencement of factory production of the European OEM product, good sales of Genesis-EDGE units in the UK market and successful development of Renault Magnum product variant for the European market in our Dual-Fuel™ division provide three strong revenue streams.

 

Orders in hand and indications from customers suggest that performance in each of these areas will remain strong during the second half of the year.

 

In the US the continuing delta between the price of diesel and that of domestically produced natural gas is encouraging operators and manufacturers to consider alternative options to fuel their vehicles. Adoption of natural gas as a road fuel is rapidly increasing driven by financial and energy security factors.

 

The decision to develop a variant of our Genesis-EDGE product for the important US market puts the control and timing of a US product launch back into the hands of the Company. Following the conclusion of our initial evaluation study this development activity will require the upgrading of some of our facilities and is expected to take around 12 months.

 

In parallel to this internal product development we will continue discussions with manufacturers and developers in relation to future products compliant with Euro 6 and US2010 emissions regulations.

 

Components sales are expected to remain in line with expectations as the year progresses and management focus will be maintained in these areas as the Dual-FuelTM division sales continue the excellent growth.

 

We are delighted to see the success of our Dual-FuelTM products validating the product development activity and the strategy pursued in recent years. The Company's focus on OEM level quality and cost control remain unchanged With our technology now adopted by and proven with a major European truck manufacturer and industry leading logistics operators in the UK, we have increased confidence in our ability to access new markets, fully exploit existing markets and develop new products in the future.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Clean Air Power Limited for the six months ended 30 June 2012 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 10 September 2012. Clean Air Power Limited is a public limited Company incorporated in Bermuda whose shares are publicly traded.

 

All of the revenues and operating assets relate to the Group's principal business activities, being vehicle conversion sales, sales of components and an emissions reduction business. Revenue is stated net of value added tax.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of preparation

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2012 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting; and using the recognition and measurement principles of International Accounting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations adopted for use in the European Union (collectively 'Adopted IFRS').

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in sterling and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (£'000) except when otherwise indicated.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and do not constitute statutory accounts and therefore do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's financial statements as at 31 December 2011. The financial information for the preceding year is based on the Group's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2011 upon which the auditors issued an unqualified opinion.

 

Accounting Policies

 

The accounting policies adopted in preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2011.

 

Going Concern

 

The Group's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Chief Executive's Statement and the financial position of the Group is described within the Statement of Financial Position. As described in the Chief Executive's review, the Company has experienced delays in decisions of US OEMs and lower sales for its Genesis-EDGE product in Australia due to product application development issues. In the short to medium term, the Group plans to develop its 'Genesis-EDGE' product to meet the demand for the US market and is working towards completing the product application development for the Australian market. The Board recently announced the successful results of the US Genesis product validation and will embark on a development program in the next month. This will allow the Group to offer an after market solution in the US whilst OEM discussions continue.

 

The Company's ability to meet its future working capital requirements is dependent on it being able to generate significant revenues and/or successfully conclude financing options. The Company's business plan required funds to be generated from a US product development contract or alternatively equity would be required. It is unlikely that the issues giving rise to the delays in OEM decisions will be resolved in the short term and therefore the Company will require further funding. The directors have prepared projections of the trading results for the foreseeable future which they consider to be prudent. The directors will pursue further short and medium term financing options and, following discussions with Company's brokers and the recent commercial successes, are confident that appropriate solutions can be found.

 

In the absence of firm commitments in relation to these financing options, the Directors have concluded that these circumstances represent a material uncertainty that casts doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Nevertheless the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For these reasons, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report.

3. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Management identify and assess risks to the business using a common model. The Group has a number of exposures which can be summarised as follows: manufacturer co-operation; in house product development; adaptation of core technology; gas supply; regulatory framework; competition/intellectual property; additional capital requirements; employees and trading risks. These risks and uncertainties facing our business were reported in detail in the 2011 Annual Report and Accounts and all of them are monitored closely by the Group's Management Board.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO CLEAN AIR POWER LIMITED

 

Introduction

 

We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the Interim Results for the 6months ended 30 June 2012 which comprises the Interim Consolidated Income Statement, the Interim Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Interim Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Interim Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, the Interim Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the related explanatory notes 1 to 10. We have read the other information contained in the Interim Results report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

 

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with guidance contained in ISRE 2410 (UK and Ireland) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

 

Directors' Responsibilities

 

The Interim Results report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the Interim Results report in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting," as adopted by the European Union.

 

As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the company are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this Interim Results report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting," as adopted by the European Union.

 

Our Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the Interim Results report based on our review.

 

Scope of Review

 

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Conclusion

 

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the Interim Results report for the 6 months ended 30 June 2012 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union.

 

Emphasis of Matter - Going Concern

 

In reaching our conclusion, which is not qualified, we have also considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in note 2 to the interim financial statements concerning the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The conditions described in note 2 indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed set of financial statements in the Interim Results report do not include the adjustments that would result if the company was unable to continue as a going concern.
