COMMENTS
The directors of OneLogix are pleased to present the unaudited condensed
consolidated interim financial results for the six months ended 30 November 2010
("the interim period"), reflecting an exceptionally strong performance. The
group effectively capitalised on the progressive upturn in the niche markets in
which it operates through continued reinforcement of its leading market position
in its areas of operation to achieve the results.
Basis of preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 `Interim
financial reporting`, the AC 500 series of interpretations, the requirements of
the South African Companies Act and the Listings Requirements of the JSE
Limited. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information
should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited annual financial
statements for the year ended 31 May 2010 ("the annual financial statements"),
which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (`IFRS`).
Accounting policies and computations are consistently applied as in the annual
financial statements. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements
have not been audited or reviewed by PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc.
Review of operations
As a result of prior strategic planning and implementation of initiatives and
systems, the group`s companies were well-positioned to benefit from the recent
improvement in the niche markets in which it operates.
Vehicle Delivery Services ("VDS") maintained its robust track record with a
continued strong performance. The economic recovery worked to the company`s
advantage, revitalising its market of operation. This was underpinned by
infrastructure investments, an historically proven market leading position,
stellar customer service, sound business processes and efficiency levels.
With similarly boosted market conditions, Commercial Vehicle Delivery Services
("CVDS") also performed ahead of expectations. The customer base was expanded
and the company`s exceptional delivery record maintained.
PostNet`s 231 franchised stores, operating in the resilient SME sector,
continued to deliver a stellar performance and maintained superior profit
margins. PostNet`s annuity-based revenue ensures that it remains a defensive
asset for OneLogix with continued promising growth prospects.
Magscene delivered a more stable performance during the interim period, which is
expected to be maintained going forward.
The RFB Logistics ("RFB") acquisition has proven beneficial to the group, as
anticipated. RFB serves a diversified customer base in the general freight and
abnormal load market. Notwithstanding a highly competitive environment, the
company outstripped expectations. The performance was largely attributable to an
expanded fleet, upgraded administration processes, consistently good customer
service and appropriate exploitation of group synergies.
During the period the group established OneLogix Projex ("Projex"). Projex works
closely with RFB and specialises in the project logistics and abnormal transport
market. Highly experienced management has ensured that a substantial and loyal
customer base has been built, which bodes well going forward.
Onelogix`s most recent acquisition, Atlas Panelbeaters, also continued to
perform ahead of expectations. A thorough review of operations, improved and new
infrastructure and development of management have ensured continued success.
Discontinued operations
The outstanding sale conditions relating to the disposal of certain of the
group`s media interests to Media24 Limited have been fulfilled, and the deferred
payment of R5,5 million was received in December 2010.
The statement of comprehensive income and the cash flow statement distinguish
discontinued operations from continuing operations. Comparative figures have
been restated.
Specific share repurchase
As previously announced on 27 July 2010, the specific share repurchase and
subsequent cancellation of 8 million shares, purchased from Jeremy Eaton and The
Eaton Family Trust at R0,85 per share, have been implemented (in accordance with
the Companies Act, 1973 and the JSE Listings Requirements) with effect from 30
August 2010.
Financial results
Revenue from continuing operations for the interim period increased 51% on the
back of a significant upturn in the automotive and abnormal load markets as well
as the first time contributions from the newly acquired and established
businesses (see Review of Operations above).
Operating profit, representing 11,5% (November 2009: 11,4%) of revenue, rose by
52% from R26,2 million to R39,8 million. The increase is attributable to an
improved utilisation of infrastructure within the group on the back of greater
workload and higher revenue being generated during the interim period. A charge
of R1,5 million relating to the BEE share trust, of which R0,6 million related
to employees of discontinued operations, was incurred during the interim period.
The fleet is currently fully operational and deployed across the group`s
businesses, with further expansion being considered.
Due to the comparatively lower lending rates as well as substantially increased
cash resources, net finance costs decreased by 55% from R5,2 million to R2,3
million. This further enhanced profit before taxation which increased 79% from
R21,0 million to R37,5 million.
Headline earnings per share ("HEPS") grew 47% from 7,0 cents to 10,3, cents.
HEPS from continuing operations was up 72% from 6,0 cents to 10,3 cents.
Increased revenue generation and strict working capital structures saw cash flow
from operations from continuing operations increase 152% from R19,8 million to
R49,9 million.
During the interim period the group invested R42,8 million in continuing
operations infrastructure as follows: R32,1 million for fleet, R7,3 million for
property developments, R1,5 million for IT infrastructure; and R1,9 million for
other assets. Net proceeds on disposal of tangible assets raised R1,4 million.
New interest-bearing borrowings of R35,6 million were raised during the interim
period, set off by repayments of interest-bearing borrowings of R31,4 million.
Capital distribution No. 2, totalling R6,1 million was paid in the interim
period. A further R6,8 million was invested in the share repurchase transaction
as detailed above (see Specific Share Repurchase).
Cash resources at the reporting date increased by 84% from R32,6 million to
R60,0 million, which is in line with the cash holdings at 31 May 2010 of R60,2
million.
Capital distribution
Shareholders are advised that a cash capital distribution of 4,0 cents per share
(November 2009: 3,0 cents) by way of a capital reduction out of share premium
has been declared for the interim period ("interim capital distribution No. 3").
The salient dates in respect of the capital 2011
distribution are as follows:
Last day to trade cum dividend on Thursday, 17 March
Shares will trade ex dividend from Friday, 18 March
Record date Friday, 25 March
Payment of dividend Monday, 28 March
Shareholders may not de-materialise or re-materialise their shares between
Friday, 18 March 2011 and Friday, 25 March 2011, both dates inclusive.
The interim capital distribution, amounting to R8,1 million, has not been
recognised as a liability in the condensed consolidated interim financial
statements. It will be recognised in shareholders` equity (utilised against
share premium) in the year to 31 May 2011.
OneLogix will continue to assess the payment of interim and final capital
distributions in light of the board`s ongoing review of earnings, after
providing for long-term growth and cash/debt resources, the amount of reserves
available using a going concern assessment and covenants of banking facilities
providers.
Prospects
Revenue is traditionally weighted to the first half of the financial year.
Notwithstanding this, the outlook for the full financial year to May 2011
remains positive. The group is expected to continue benefitting from its proven
leading market positions, superior customer service and solid business processes
supported by a skilled and motivated management team. OneLogix also has a
comparatively large cash reserve and will continue to assess appropriate
earnings-enhancing acquisitions.
In the interests of increasing the liquidity of the OneLogix share and to
accommodate demand, certain directors have agreed to release a limited amount of
their personal shareholdings onto the market during the coming months.
People
Tsakani Matshazi resigned as a non-executive director of OneLogix (and of all
the OneLogix subsidiaries of which she was a director) with effect from 22
November 2010. Tsakani was appointed to the board of OneLogix and its
subsidiaries as a representative of the company`s empowerment partner and
shareholder, Izingwe Holdings (Pty) Limited. As she has left Izingwe to pursue
new interests, she has resigned her OneLogix positions. We thank her for the
valuable contribution over the years and wish her well.
Ashley Basil Ally has been appointed as non-executive director of OneLogix in
Tsakani`s stead, with Debrah Ann Hirschowitz as an alternate director to Ashley.
We remain satisfied that our management teams and staff, undergoing continual
training and skills development, are well-equipped to deliver on strategic and
operational objectives.
We thank our management and employees for their efforts and tenacity which have
driven our success. We further extend our appreciation to our business partners,
customers, suppliers, business advisors and shareholders for their ongoing
invaluable support.
