Trading Update
The Board of Totally plc (AIM: TLY), a leading provider of a range of healthcare services across the UK, today announces an update on trading for the 12-month period ended 31 March 2020, ahead of the audited final results which are expected to be announced in July 2020.
Based on draft unaudited numbers the Group anticipates reporting EBITDA* for the year ended 31 March 2020 ahead of consensus market expectations on lower than expected revenue. Revenue is expected to be below consensus market expectations due to delays encountered with the NHS awarding new tenders primarily as a result of Brexit and the general election. However, following the acquisition of Greenbrook Healthcare in June 2019 and the launch of the Group's new insourcing business, Totally Healthcare, the Group has achieved some margin improvement and further operating efficiencies across the Group which have had a positive impact on EBITDA in the period.
As at 31 March 2020 the Company was in a healthy financial position with £8.9m of cash and no debt financing**.
Totally continues to make progress with its stated strategy and, over the course of the 12-month period, announced in excess of £30m of value in new contracts and over £20m in contract extensions across its operating subsidiaries. The Group also completed the transformational £11.5m acquisition of Greenbrook Healthcare in June 2019 and, in October 2019, launched its new insourcing business, Totally Healthcare, which is performing strongly. These activities and successes have placed the Group in a strengthened position as it enters the new financial year.
As announced on 27 March 2020, Totally is currently focusing all efforts on standing shoulder to shoulder with the NHS in the fight against COVID-19. Patient and staff wellbeing remains the Group's top priority as it continues to deliver critical front-line services across the UK and Ireland.
* EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation and excludes one-off exceptional items
** Following the adoption of IFRS 16, the Company has reported operating lease commitments as a debt on its balance sheet however these do not affect the day to day working capital available to the Group
