COMMENTARY
Performance review
The Group achieved disappointing interim results for the six months to 30 June
2011 with an attributable headline loss of R21,3 million compared to the R14,8
million attributable headline earnings for the same period last year. Group
revenue was flat at R654 million for the period.
The losses are largely attributed to 1time airline (Proprietary) Limited ("the
airline") which incurred increases in fuel prices, increased airport charges and
poor passenger demand during May and June. The aircraft maintenance business
turnaround is on track achieving close to breakeven for the period.
Total balance sheet debt has been reduced and net working capital improved by
R61 million since the beginning of the year following the Safair Technical
(Proprietary) Limited ("Safair Technical") debt restructuring transaction in
February and the BEE funding transaction completed in March. Cash generated from
operations reduced to R4 million compared to the R46,3 million generated for the
same period last year.
1time airline
The airline`s financial performance was poor for the six months to June
incurring a R34,7 million attributable loss compared to the R20,1 million profit
earned in the same period last year. Passenger revenue was flat at R565 million.
The losses were largely attributed to:
* a 6% passenger decline caused by abnormally poor demand in May and June
only partly offset by a 5% yield growth;
* airport charges increased by 24% for the period resulting in a R12 million
increase in airport costs; and
* average Rand fuel prices increased by 28% for the period increasing fuel
costs by R56,5 million for the period.
The 70% increase in Airports Company South Africa ("ACSA") passenger taxes from
1 October 2011 is a major concern and is expected to materially impact passenger
volumes in the second half. Exorbitant airport taxes will continue to constrain
tourism and business growth particularly in SADC countries.
The airline has performed well operationally and we are pleased that ACSA has
agreed to publish all airlines` monthly on-time performance based on actual
performance. For July 2011 the airline achieved 90% on-time performance, the
best of the low cost airlines. The first African MD80 flight simulator based at
OR Tambo has been certified and is operational. This will result in training
cost savings for the airline.
The airline has plans to expand capacity including the introduction of Lanseria
air services in the last quarter of 2011 to provide our customers with a greater
choice of destinations and affordable airfares.
The Maputo route was discontinued effective 31 August 2011 due to high airport
taxes and inadequate frequencies to satisfy the needs of the business market.
The airline is exploring opportunities in various other African destinations.
Aircraft fleet
The airline aircraft fleet renewal plan is currently in progress and the Group
expects to announce aircraft fleet changes during 2012 to ensure that the
airline maintains its position as the lowest cost operator in the domestic
industry.
Safair technical
The turnaround strategy at Safair Technical is achieving success. Attributable
losses have been reduced from R22,6 million in the preceding year to R1,4
million for the six months to June 2011.
Total revenue increased marginally to R139 million on higher third party demand.
Significant fixed cost savings have been achieved without impacting revenue
capacity.
Further revenue growth and cost savings are expected in the second half of 2011.
Safair technical restructuring
The Safair Technical restructuring has been successfully implemented in
accordance with the terms of the Letter of Intent as advised to shareholders in
the Subsequent Events note in the 2010 annual report.
In terms of the restructuring agreement Safair Operations (Proprietary) Limited
has assumed responsibility for approximately R50 million of Safair Technical
debt in exchange for a cession of leasehold improvements and the sale of
Lockheed equipment assets of an equivalent value. The transaction reduces Group
debt and is earnings enhancing on lower rental and interest costs. In terms of
the agreement 1time Holdings Limited acquired 28% of Safair Technical from
Safair Operations for R280 on 28 February 2011 to achieve a 100% shareholding.
RineshRamkissoon, previously CEO of South African Airways Technical
(Proprietary) Limited and General Manager of Qatar Airways was appointed as CEO
during May 2011.
Dividend policy
The Board has adopted a dividend policy of a minimum of eight times cover moving
into the 2011 financial year. This resulted from the successful BEE transaction,
however due to the losses reported for the period, no dividend has been
declared.
Basis of preparation and accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed financial
statements, which are based on reasonable judgements and estimates, are in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and are
consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year
ended 31 December 2010. These reviewed consolidated condensed interim financial
statements as set out in this report have been prepared in terms of IAS 34 -
Interim Financial Reporting, the Companies Act, 2008 (Act No 71 of 2008), as
amended, and the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited.
Review opinion
The consolidated condensed interim results for the period ended June 2011 have
been reviewed by the auditors of 1time, SAB&T Chartered Accountants. Their
unqualified review opinion is available for inspection at the offices of 1time
Holdings Limited.
Subsequent events
The Board is not aware of any material matter or circumstance arising since the
end of the interim financial period ended June 2011 up to the date of this
report.
Prospects
Prospects for the airline in the second half of the year are expected to improve
through higher revenues driven by higher demand in the seasonally stronger
second half and the introduction of expanded air services. Yield and demand will
be negatively impacted by the increase in airport taxes.
Margins and costs will however be driven by the oil price.
The turnaround strategy in Safair Technical is expected to achieve profitability
in the second half through higher revenue and lower costs with strong demand
from third party maintenance customers.
