K3 BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY GROUP PLC
("K3" or "the Group")
Announces
Unaudited
Half Yearly Report
For the six months to 30 June 2009
Key Points
Commenting on the results, Tom Milne, Chairman of K3, said,
"Market conditions have been very challenging and the impact of this is evident in our results for the first half of the year. Nonetheless, the Group's overall performance has been encouraging in the face of the downturn and broadly in line with management expectations. Although new business has been tougher, new contract wins within our two core business units were pleasing and will help underpin services income into the second half.
While the trading environment is expected to remain difficult, there is a high degree of resilience to the business, with a significant proportion of the Group's revenue underpinned by high levels of predictable income arising from annual software licence renewals and maintenance income. In addition, as we enter the second half of the financial year, the Group's new business sales pipelines look stronger and cash generation remains healthy. We are also continuing to look for complementary acquisitions."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
OVERVIEW
Market conditions have been very challenging and the impact of this is evident in our results for the first half of the year. Nonetheless, the Group's overall performance has been encouraging in the face of the downturn and broadly in line with management expectations, with revenues of £15.9m and adjusted profit from operations1 of £1.54m. In addition, cash generation remains strong.
Lower than predicted services revenue affected results in the first quarter. This largely reflected the late closure of orders in 2008. Services income returned to satisfactory levels in the second quarter. Although new business has been tougher, new contract wins within our two core business units were very pleasing and will help underpin services income in the second half. A total of 24 new contracts were signed across the Group in the first half, with an aggregate contract value of £4.5m compared to 20, worth a total of £2.4m, in the same period last year.
During 2008, in response to the slowdown, we embarked on an overhead reduction programme. This continued into 2009, at a cost of £0.2m in the first half but the programme should benefit second half results by up to £0.65m and is expected to deliver savings in excess of £1m in a full year. We are continuing to seek improved efficiencies across the businesses and to deliver further cost saving initiatives throughout the Group.
Over recent years, we have been increasingly focused on developing additional software modules to enhance our Microsoft Dynamics and other Microsoft-based product offerings. The strategy of 'Developing Dynamics' to extend the footprint of the core Dynamics product into our prime supply chain markets helps to create both a competitive edge and to improve our margins. We now own an extensive and growing library of Intellectual Property ("IP") to sell to our customer base and which, in due course, we could consider distributing through other global Microsoft partners.
Looking ahead over the remainder of the year, while the trading environment is expected to remain difficult, there is a high degree of resilience to the business, with a significant proportion of the Group's revenue arising from annual software licence renewals and maintenance fees. It should be noted though that a major part of these predictable, recurring revenue streams fall in the second half of the year and, more specifically, in the last financial quarter. This, coupled with the benefit of our cost initiatives, helps underpin our expectations in the second half. The sales pipelines in our two core businesses are encouraging and the Group remains strongly cash generative. By the end of 2009, we expect net debt to reduce to approximately £9m (31 December 2008: £13.0m).
We continue to look for complementary acquisitions.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
For the six months to 30 June 2009, the Group generated revenue of £15.9m (2008: £17.1m), with the Retail Software Division contributing £9.83m (2008: £10.45m) and the Manufacturing Software Division contributing £6.12m (2008: £6.66m) to this result.
Adjusted profit from operations*1 was £1.54m (2008: £2.32m) while profit from operations was £0.68m (2008: £1.51m).
Profit before tax was £0.13m (2008: £0.91m). Adjusted earnings per share*2 were 3.1p (2008: 5.6p). After amortisation of acquired intangibles (net of tax) of £0.58m (2008: £0.54m) and cost of share based payments (net of tax) of £0.04m (2008: £0.04m), basic earnings per share were 0.5p (2008: 3.1p). As in the prior year, earnings per share are expected to rise significantly in the second half of the financial year, reflecting the impact of the second half weighting of annual software licence fees in our Manufacturing Software Division.
The tax charge of £0.02m includes the benefit of £0.15m credit relating to deferred tax on acquired intangibles (2008: £0.17m).
At 30 June 2009, the Group had an overdraft of £0.68m (2008: £0.77m) and bank loans of £12.16m (2008: £15.19m). In the second half, we expect strong cash flow arising from customers' annual software licence fee renewals and maintenance and support renewals, specifically in our Manufacturing Software Division, where we expect to bill in excess of £6m in October.
Dividends
In line with the Group's dividend policy, there is no interim dividend but the Directors intend to propose a final dividend with the results for the full financial year.
Operational Review
Retail Software Division
Revenue at the Retail Software Division in the first half of the financial year decreased by 6% to £9.83m (2008: £10.45m) and adjusted profit from operations*3 was £1.16m (2008: £1.61m). The UK business performed robustly in difficult market conditions and although revenue decreased to £7.80m (2008: £8.02m), the adjusted profit from operations*4 increased by 9% to £0.85m (2008: £0.78m). This was as a result of both tight financial management and the margin benefit arising from owning IP. The UK operation closed £2.0m of new business contracts in the first half (2008: £1.2m) and I am pleased to report that it has a strong pipeline in the second half.
Our Netherland-based business, K3 Nederland, contributed £2.02m (2008: £2.43m) to revenue and £0.31m (2008: £0.83m) to adjusted profit from operations*5. The impact of the credit crunch and subsequent recession in Europe lagged behind the UK, with the downturn being felt predominantly in the first half of this year rather than the second half of last year. Despite this, K3 Nederland closed two new business contracts in the period, the benefits of which will come through in the second half and beyond. We have also made changes to the senior management team, which will strengthen the business.
We have continued to develop our own IP throughout the first half and our library of IP now includes a full multi-channel offering with call centre management, online ordering, internet kiosks and .net point of sale capability, all integrated into the Division's core Dynamics Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") offering. We have also developed our own IP within the fashion and brewing sectors as well as further software modules for electronic funds transfer, business information, mobile technology, sales portals, customer relationship management and fiscal solutions for a number of territories.
As we enter the second half of the financial year, we have preferred supplier status on a number of key deals and are starting to see some movement on a number of projects that have been deferred over the past 12 months.
Manufacturing Software Division
Revenue at the Manufacturing Software Division was £6.12m (2008: £6.66m) and adjusted profit from operations*6 was £0.53m (2008: £1.02m). K3 Supply Chain Solutions ("SCS"), our Syspro business which we reorganised at the beginning of the year, performed strongly, contributing revenue of £4.1m (2008: £4.1m) and adjusted operating profit*7 of £0.38m (2008: £0.28m). The business closed 14 new deals over the period, worth a total of £2.1m (2008: 10 worth £1.1m) with the average contract sizes increasing significantly. As previously mentioned, results from SCS, which represent our core activity within the Division, are heavily weighted towards the second half of the year when over £6m annual software licences and support contracts are invoiced in October.
Our Microsoft Dynamics AX business (specialising in process manufacturing) underperformed as new business deals were deferred. As a result, sales reduced to £0.80m (2008: £1.14m) producing an adjusted loss*8 of £0.3m (2008: £0.18m profit). We have taken action to reduce the cost base and have refreshed the sales team. The pipeline of potential new business looks strong and there are a number of deals at an advanced stage which could benefit results in the second half.
Our Walton-on-Thames business generated sales of £1.26m (2008: £1.45m) and adjusted operating profits*9 of £0.45m (2008: £0.56m). The business saw one major upgrade in the year, with the conversion of a customer's existing legacy system to Syspro. Contracted orders and interest in our Microsoft CRM based solutions are increasing and we are investing further in this area in the second half.
Our library of IP in the Manufacturing Software Division now includes software for advanced planning and scheduling, warehouse management, delivery route planning, recipe management, personnel, and time and attendance systems.
Central Costs
Central costs decreased from £0.31m to £0.14m as we achieved reductions to the central cost base, a process which continues. Our share of associated company losses in the period was £0.024m (2008: nil).
Outlook
The outlook for the second half is encouraging with the benefit of increased service activity from deals closed in the first half as well as improving margins and stronger new business pipelines.
In the current environment, the Group's resilience is very evident, underpinned by high levels of predictable income (software licence renewals and maintenance income), which coupled with account management income represent approximately 75% of our annualised revenues in 2008, a level that we see continuing in 2009, even when our new business wins are taken into account.
Cash generation remains strong and our borrowings are expected to be around £9m at the year-end (31 December 2008: £13.0m).
We continue to seek complementary acquisitions in our marketplace where we see increasing opportunities for consolidation. Meanwhile, we consider that the Group remains well-positioned to make good progress in the second half of the year and beyond.

The financial information has not been prepared (and is not required to be prepared) in accordance with IAS 34. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the Group for the purposes of preparation of this financial information
The presentational requirements of IAS 1 (revised) have been adopted in these interim statements as this standard will be effective for the Group's full year financial statements to 31 December 2009. IFRS 8 Operating Segments will also be adopted in the Group's full year financial statements to 31 December 2009. The adoption of these standards will have no impact on the results or net assets of the Group.
The financial information in this statement relating to the six months ended 30 June 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2008 has neither been audited nor reviewed pursuant to guidance issued by the Auditing Practices Board.
