("Adapt IT" or "the Group")
UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED GROUP RESULTS for the six months ended
31 December 2011
INTERIM REPORT TO THE STAKEHOLDERS
8% increase in revenue
12% increase in operating profit
80% increase in earnings per share
74% increase in headline eps
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Revenue increased by 8% to R92,3 million (2010: R85,1 million) and profit from
operations was 12% higher at R7,2 million (2010: R6,5 million).
Interim earnings per share (EPS) improved by 80% to 6,19 cents per share (2010:
3,43 cps) with interim headline EPS (HEPS) 74% higher at 6,19 cps (2010: 3,56
cps). The minority buyouts of the previous financial year made a significant
positive contribution to earnings growth.
ITS Holdings (Pty) Limited increased its revenue and profitability through its
focus on the higher and further education sector whilst ApplyIT (Pty) Limited
improved its performance through securing offshore clients in the resources
sector. The continued tough trading conditions in the sugar industry negatively
impacted on the profitability of Adapt IT (Pty) Limited however, the environment
is anticipated to improve going forward.
STRATEGY AND PROSPECTS
The Adapt IT Group continued to pursue its long-term strategy to deliver
sustainable above average returns to shareholders by focusing on a combination
of organic and acquisitive growth.
The acquisition of BI Planning Services (Pty) Limited ("BiPS"), effective 1
January 2012, further enhances the Group`s product offerings and provides access
to customers within the Financial Services Sector. The Group will seek further
significant earnings enhancing acquisitions.
The Group continues to grow its footprint in the broader African and
International markets and maintains its tight focus on improving profit margins,
seeking greater operational efficiencies and engaging positively with all its
stakeholders in order to meet their expectations.
We envisage the second half of the year to remain challenging, however, we are
favourably positioned to take advantage of the opportunities presented by our
markets.
APPRECIATION
We express our thanks to our long-standing and new customers, partners and
service providers for their continued support and loyalty to the Group. We also
thank the Adapt IT Group employees for their continuous dedication and hard work
in serving our customers.
