Factors impacting comparability of our 2Q 2012 and 2Q 2011 results
Unfavorable impact from the strengthening of the US dollar: The US dollar
appreciated by 18% against the ZAR during 2Q2012 which negatively impacted
our reported results;
Net taxation benefit related to the replacement of STC with a dividends
withholding tax in South Africa: As a result of a recent change in South
African tax law that will replace STC with a dividends withholding tax, our
tax expense decreased by $11.8 million, as we recorded a $20.0 million
deferred tax benefit which was offset by an $8.2 million foreign tax credit
valuation allowance;
Inclusion of revenue contribution from KSNET at lower operating margin
(before acquired intangible asset amortization) than our legacy business:
The inclusion of KSNET for a full fiscal quarter contributed to an increase
in revenues for the 2Q 2012; however, because KSNET has an operating margin
(before acquired intangible asset amortization) that is lower than our
legacy businesses, it reduced our overall operating margin. KSNET also
contributed to the increase in selling, general and administration and
depreciation and amortization expenses;
Lower revenues from hardware, software and related technology sales segment:
Hardware, software and related technology sales were adversely impacted by
lower revenues from all major segment contributors;
Lower intangible asset amortization related to acquisition: Additional
intangible asset amortization related to the acquisitions of KSNET and Eason
was more than offset by the full impairment of Net1 UTA`s intangibles in
2011;
Lower interest income and increased interest expense resulting from KSNET
acquisition: We paid the KSNET purchase price with a combination of cash and
long-term debt, which reduced interest income and increased interest
expense; and
Fiscal 2011 unrealized foreign exchange gain and transaction-related
expenses: During the 2Q2011, we recognized, in selling, general and
administration expense, an unrealized foreign exchange gain of $2.7 million
and incurred transaction-related expenses of $1.8 million, primarily for the
acquisition of KSNET.
Comments and Outlook
"Our 2Q 2012 results continued the strong momentum of our businesses from
the previous quarter," said Dr. Serge Belamant, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Net1. "I am particularly pleased with SASSA`s decision to award
the social grants tender on a national basis to Net1, as well as the
conclusion of our BEE transaction, both of which put us in a strong
strategic position to drive long-term growth. We are honored and privileged
to provide the highest levels of service and convenience at the lowest cost
to the South African government as well as its citizens. Our focus over the
next several months will be to execute on the expectations laid upon us by
providing a comprehensive, seamless and superior service to this important
constituency," he concluded.
"The next twelve months will require substantial investment in capital
equipment and establishment costs as we implement the new SASSA contract,"
said Herman Kotze, Chief Financial Officer of Net1. "The substantial
increase in the beneficiaries, although at a lower price, should increase
our monthly pension and welfare revenue by approximately 45% in ZAR and once
we are fully phased in, at the very least maintain our operating income that
we generate from our current contract. We currently expect to be fully
phased-in by the second quarter of fiscal 2013. We anticipate capital
expenditure of $45-$50 million during the next twelve months. The next three
quarters are difficult for us to predict at this time, given the timing and
magnitude of investments required in any given quarter, however we
anticipate still being profitable on a fundamental earnings basis for the
second half of fiscal 2012," he concluded.
Results of Operations by Segment and Liquidity
Our frequently asked questions and operating metrics will be updated and
posted on our website (www.net1.com).
South African transaction-based activities
Segment revenue was $46.4 million in 2Q 2012, down 1% compared with 2Q 2011
in USD and up 17% on a constant currency basis. In ZAR, the increase in
segment revenue was primarily due to modest growth in our pension and
welfare business, the acquisition of Eason`s prepaid airtime and electricity
business and increased transaction volumes in rural merchant acquiring and
MediKredit. Segment operating income margin was 34% compared to 40% a year
ago and has declined due to the inclusion of increased low-margin prepaid
airtime sales and Eason intangible asset amortization. Excluding
amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, 2Q 2012 segment operating
income margin was 38%, compared to 43% during 2Q 2011.
International transaction-based activities
KSNET continues to be the largest contributor to this segment. XeoHealth
generated additional implementation revenue during 2Q 2012 and since
December 2011, has begun to generate recurring transaction-based revenues.
Revenue was $28.8 million in 2Q 2012, up 66% in USD compared with 2Q 2011and
95% higher on a constant currency basis, primarily as a result of the
inclusion of KSNET for a full quarter as well as contributions from
XeoHealth. Segment operating income margin remained consistent at 1%.
Excluding the amortization of intangibles but including the start-up costs
related to Net1 Virtual Card and XeoHealth in the United States and MVC
activities at Net1 UTA, operating income margin was unchanged at 12%.
Smart card accounts
Segment revenue was $7.3 million in 2Q 2012, down 14% compared with 2Q 2011
in USD and up 1% on a constant currency basis. Operating income margin
remained consistent at 45%.
Financial services
UEPS-based lending contributes the majority of the revenue and operating
income in this operating segment. We continue to incur start-up expenditures
related to our SmartLife business and other financial services offerings.
Segment revenue was $1.9 million in 2Q 2012, up 18% compared with 2Q 2011 in
USD and 39% higher on a constant currency basis, principally due to an
increase in lending activities. 2Q 2012 segment operating income margin was
53% compared with 62% during 2Q 2011 and decreased primarily due to start-up
expenditures incurred by SmartLife.
Hardware, software and related technology sales
Segment revenue was $7.6 million in 2Q 2012, down 49% compared with 2Q 2011
in USD and 40% lower on a constant currency basis. The decrease in revenue
and operating income was due to a lower contribution from all contributors
to hardware and software sales. Excluding amortization of all intangibles,
segment operating margin was 13% compared to 16% during 2Q 2011.
Cash flow and liquidity
At December 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $81 million, down
from $95 million at June 30, 2011. The decrease in cash was due to a
strengthening in the USD against the ZAR, the repayment of principal under
our KSNET debt and the acquisition of SmartLife and the Eason prepaid
electricity and airtime business, offset by cash generated from operations
and a net settlement received from the former shareholders of KSNET. For 2Q
2012, we utilized net cash of $6.2 million for operating activities,
compared to cash flow of $5.0 million in 2Q 2011. Excluding the impact of
interest paid under our Korean debt, the decrease in cash provided by
operating activities resulted from the timing of receipts of accounts
receivable in our South African transaction-based activities operating
segment offset by increased profitability. Capital expenditures for 2Q 2012
and 2011 were $5.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
US securities laws require that when we publish any non-GAAP measures, we
disclose the reason for using the non-GAAP measure and provide
reconciliation to the directly comparable GAAP measure. The presentation of
fundamental net income and fundamental earnings per share and headline
earnings per share are non-GAAP measures.
Fundamental net income and fundamental earnings per share
Fundamental net income and earnings per share is GAAP net income and
earnings per share to adjusted for (1) the amortization of acquisition-
related intangible assets (net of deferred taxes), (2) stock-based
compensation charges and (3) unusual non-recurring items, including the
effects of a change in South African tax law and the creation of a valuation
allowance related to foreign tax credits, amortization of KSNET debt
facility fees, transaction-related costs and an unrealized foreign exchange
movements. Management believes that the fundamental net income and earnings
per share metric enhances its own evaluation, as well as an investor`s
understanding, of our financial performance. Attachment B presents the
reconciliation between GAAP and fundamental net income and earnings per
share.
Headline earnings per share ("HEPS")
The inclusion of HEPS in this press release is a requirement of our listing
on the JSE. HEPS basic and diluted is calculated using net income which has
been determined based on GAAP. Accordingly, this may differ to the headline
earnings per share calculation of other companies listed on the JSE as these
companies may report their financial results under a different financial
reporting framework, including but not limited to, International Financial
Reporting Standards.
HEPS basic and diluted is calculated as GAAP net income adjusted for the
loss (profit) on sale of property, plant and equipment, net of related tax
effects, the loss attributable to the sale of 10% of SmartLife and the
profit on liquidation of SmartSwitch Nigeria. Attachment C presents the
reconciliation between our net income used to calculate earnings per share
basic and diluted and HEPS basic and diluted.
