Chairman's Statement

 

I am pleased to present the results for the year ended 31 May 2016.

 

Results

In the year ended 31 May 2016 Leeds Group made a profit after tax of £1,039,000 (2015: £1,053,000). Pre-tax profit fell by 4.1% to £1,507,000 (2015: £1,571,000), and was affected close to the year-end by the bankruptcy of a major German customer which was partially offset by credit insurance. Despite this setback, pre-tax profit finished slightly ahead of our budget for the year and close to last year's level.

 

Net assets at 31 May 2016 increased to £15,512,000 (2015: £13,822,000) and the value per share was 56.5p (2015: 50.2p). Earnings per share for the year were 3.8p (2015: 3.8p). Following capital expenditure of £4,156,000 in the year (2015: £298,000), chiefly on the acquisition and extension of the German warehouse and office facility, the Group closed the year with net bank debt of £2,646,000 (2015: net cash £596,000).

 

Hemmers-Itex Textil Import Export GmbH ("Hemmers")

Total fabric sales in the year by Hemmers, Leeds Group's principal trading company, increased modestly by 1.0% to 13.789 million linear metres (2015: 13.633 million). Revenue in Euro terms increased by 8.8%, reflecting the sales price increases that were necessary to preserve margins in the face of the depreciation of the Euro against the US dollar. Pre-tax profit in Euro terms was €1,705,000 (2015: €1,871,000) and was affected by the bankruptcy of a significant customer referred to above.

 

In sterling terms, revenue was £32,775,000 (2015: £31,151,000) and pre-tax profit was £1,309,000 (2015: £1,443,000).

 

During the year Hemmers invested heavily in purchasing and extending the warehouse and office facility in Nordhorn at a cost to date of approximately €5,000,000 (£3,700,000). The entire project comprising warehousing, office space and an enlarged sales area is very close to completion.

 

In December 2014 Hemmers acquired a 50% interest in Stoff-Ideen-KMR GmbH ("KMR"), a chain of 14 retail fabric and haberdashery stores. KMR has now relocated to the Hemmers facility and now rents a portion of the new warehouse extension, enabling both businesses to improve inventory management. In this, the first full year of our investment in KMR, the business has continued to source a significant proportion of its stock purchases from Hemmers, and has grown with the opening of two new stores in Saarbrücken and Bamberg, with further new stores planned to open in the next few months.

 

Chinoh-Tex, the Hemmers subsidiary based in Shanghai, achieved external sales revenue of £3,497,000 (2015: £3,708,000) and pre-tax profit of £267,000 (2015: £305,000). Some European customers previously dealing with Chinoh-Tex bought from Hemmers this year, but Chinoh-Tex maintained its sales volume by developing sales in China and other far eastern markets. Though small, ChinohTex continues to provide valuable assistance to its European parent in terms of purchasing, quality inspection and bulk shipping of material bought in China.

 

Dividend

Leeds Group has made a significant investment in KMR, and in the purchase and expansion of the Nordhorn facility, where a further £1,000,000 is committed to complete the project in the current financial year. Therefore, as last year, the Directors do not propose a dividend. In the opinion of the Board, this maximises the long-term value of the Group to the benefit of all shareholders.

 

Employees

On behalf of shareholders, I thank the management and staff of Hemmers and ChinohTex for their continued hard work and commitment that has produced such a highly satisfactory result.

 

Outlook

We continue to believe potential growth opportunities exist for Hemmers in their traditional wholesale business, and that even greater potential exists in the retail business in which we have invested more recently. We continue to monitor possibilities to accelerate this growth potential by way of acquisition.

 

At this early point in the current financial year, sales have been in line with the expectations of the Board.

Strategic Report

 

Business review

The Companies Act 2006 requires the directors to set out in this report a fair review of the business of the Group during the year ended 31 May 2016, including an analysis of the position of the Group at the end of the year and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group. This information includes a discussion of the Key Performance Indicators used by the directors to monitor the business which are:

 

· Sales volumes and revenue

· profit before tax

· gross profit margin

· earnings per share

· operating overheads and central costs

· working capital levels

 

Group result

Group revenue in the year was £36,272,000 (2015: £34,859,000), and pre-tax profit was £1,507,000 (2015: £1,571,000). Although sterling at 31 May 2016 was 6.2% weaker against the Euro than had been the case a year earlier, its average rate for the year as a whole was stronger by 3.6%. Group revenue and pre-tax profit would have been greater by £871,000 and £43,000 respectively had the results of overseas subsidiaries been translated at last year's average rates.

 

Profitability in Hemmers was adversely affected by the bankruptcy late in the year of a major customer, which was covered in part by credit insurance.

 

The average value of the Euro throughout the year was USD 1.105 (2015: USD 1.351). A weaker Euro increases the Euro cost of stock invoiced in US Dollars but this transaction effect was not significant; margins were close to their 2015 level by the combined effects of the stockholding period, forward exchange contracts and sales price increases.

 

The parent company has granted a loan denominated in Euros to its subsidiary Hemmers and, as sterling depreciated sharply at the end of the financial year, an unrealised gain arose of £100,000 (2015: unrealised loss £253,000).

 

The tax charge in the year was £468,000 net of a deferred tax credit of £28,000 relating to temporary differences on financial derivatives. Earnings per share were unchanged from 2015 at 3.8p.

 

Hemmers Europe

This German-based business is engaged in the import, warehousing and wholesaling of fabrics.

 

Sales volumes increased in the year by 1% to 13.789 million linear metres (2015: 13.633 million) while sales revenue rose by 8.8% to €44,309,000 (2015: €40,735,000), with the growth achieved predominantly in the German home market.

 

As mentioned above, despite the weakness of the Euro gross margins were little changed at 21.5% (2015: 22.2%). Overhead expenditure in local currency (excluding the charge for bad and doubtful debts) increased by 6.5% as a result of the modest sales volume increases and cost inflation.

 

Pre-tax profit for the year was €1,705,000 (2015: €1,871,000) with the profitability from continued sales growth proving insufficient to compensate for the need to provide against receivables due from a large customer entering bankruptcy. Administrators have been appointed and are seeking to achieve asset sales and a financial reconstruction but a conservative 100% provision was considered appropriate.

 

In December 2014 Hemmers acquired a 50% interest in Stoff-Ideen-KMR GmbH ("KMR"), a chain of retail fabric and haberdashery stores, at a cost of €500,000 (£383,000). KMR is operated as a joint venture and in May 2015 each of the two joint venture partners subscribed for additional capital of €250,000 (£192,000) bringing the total investment by Hemmers to €750,000 (£575,000). The Group's share of the post-tax income of KMR in the year was £51,000 (5 months to 31 May 2015: £13,000).

 

During the year Hemmers purchased the warehouse and offices it had leased for the previous ten years for €2,700,000. Having already constructed a freehold extension in 2008, construction of a further extension to provide additional warehousing and office space was begun in the year at budgeted cost of €3,000,000 (£2,300,000). We had planned to complete this project by 31 May 2016, but building work was suspended for a while in the autumn owing to excessively wet conditions. At the date of this report, full occupation of warehouse and offices is imminent. Part of the extension will be leased to KMR, and neither KMR nor Hemmers will now need to continue to rent warehousing outside the Nordhorn facility.

 

The final phase of the warehouse extension will increase the total size of the facility to approximately 17,000 square metres and will be completed early in the current year with the purchase and installation of additional machinery to increase our capacity to meet the customer requirement to double-fold our fabrics before sale. This will eliminate the need to outsource this work and so reduce cost.

 

Largely as a result of this investment programme, the Hemmers bank debt, net of cash, increased in the year to £3,647,000 (2015: £1,077,000). This bank debt is secured on the assets of Hemmers.

 

Hemmers China

Chinoh-Tex is a textile trading subsidiary of Hemmers. It is based in Shanghai and has been trading for eight years. It purchases fabric from Chinese suppliers and in 2016 sold to customers in 31 countries. External sales increased marginally in the year to 2.202 million linear metres (2015: 2.191 million). 40% of sales were made to EU countries (2015: 60%) with the reduction caused chiefly by certain European customers being supplied from Hemmers rather than from Chinoh-Tex, who compensated for this by increasing sales in China to £597,000 (2015: £103,000) with significant growth also in Viet Nam.

 

External sales revenue fell by 5.7% to £3,497,000 (2015: £3,708,000) reflecting the changes to product and market mix, and gross margin fell slightly to 21.5% (2015: 22.0%). Overhead spending was reduced by 5.5% to £484,000 (2015: £512,000) and pre-tax profit amounted to £267,000 (2015: £305,000).

 

Importantly, ChinohTex continues to give valuable assistance to its European parent with the purchasing, inspection and shipping of material.

The voluntary liquidation of the CLG Holding BV, the Dutch holding company, was completed in the year.

 

Fixed Assets

Capital additions in the year amounted to £4,156,000 (2015: 298,000) and included expenditure of £3,697,000 in respect of the purchase and extension of the warehouse and office facility in Nordhorn. The net book amount of tangible fixed assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position is £5,864,000 (2015: £1,760,000). A further £1,000,000 has been authorised and committed to complete the Nordhorn project in the current year.

 

Working Capital

Working capital comprises inventories, trade and other receivables, and trade and other payables and increased in the year by just £127,000 (2015: £555,000). The directors anticipate that working capital will now rise to its annual peak over the next few months.

Debt Profile

The funding policy of the Group continues to be to match its funding requirement in trading subsidiaries in a cost-effective fashion with an appropriate combination of short and longer-term debt. The warehouse constructed in 2008 in Germany is financed by a 20-year loan at a fixed interest rate of 4.07%. Property investments in the year have been financed partly from cash generated in the year, but principally from loans at fixed interest rates between 1.65% and 3.4%. Working capital finance, when required, is via short term loans of three months currently attracting interest at approximately 1.4%.

 

Bank debt in the subsidiaries is secured by charges on inventories, receivables and property and is without recourse to the Parent Company.

 

Principal risks and uncertainties

Following the UK referendum result in favour of leaving the European Union ("EU"), the economic environment has become much more uncertain. However, the business of Leeds Group is conducted entirely by subsidiaries incorporated in Germany or China, and their exports to the UK account for approximately 4% of Group revenue. For this reason, the Directors do not believe that a material risk to Leeds Group will arise from the terms on which the UK will, in the future, have access to EU markets, and vice versa.

 

Of greater risk is the possibility of reduced demand owing to falling consumer confidence, although the business has proved robust in earlier recessions with some evidence that reduced consumer spending on ready-made apparel or furnishings generates increased demand for Hemmers fabrics that customers use to make equivalent goods in the home.

 

The currency markets in particular dislike the current air of uncertainty, and sterling immediately lost ground on news of the referendum result. This benefits Leeds Group since, as the pound weakens, the value of the revenues, profits and net assets of foreign subsidiaries is increased in sterling terms.

 

Leeds Group subsidiaries purchase the majority of their fabrics in US dollars, while the Euro is the principal currency in which Hemmers Europe sells its product. Thus the Euro/dollar rate is of greater significance to Leeds Group than the strength of sterling. Since the referendum result the Euro has not depreciated against the US dollar to a material extent, and at the date of this report is actually stronger than in the winter months of the financial year just ended. We shall continue to manage this transactional currency risk by a combination of forward exchange contracts with reputable banks and sales price increases where necessary.

 

Fire risk is mitigated by insurance, including consequential loss insurance to cover the loss of business opportunity while replacement stocks are obtained. There is an adequate disaster recovery programme in place with regard to essential computer systems. The commercial risks of operating in the highly competitive European fabric market are limited by the fact that Hemmers has a wide range of suppliers, and no customer accounts for more than 5% of revenues. The Directors therefore consider the principal operating risks of operating in this market to be credit risk, market risk in the form of fair value or cash flow interest rate risk, or foreign exchange risk.
