Wood-based panels are manufactured through the compression of wood waste into solid panels. These panels have a variety of applications in the construction, furniture manufacturing and shop fitting industries. Packaging consumables and machinery are products and machines which cater for a wide variety of packaging requirements in the industrial, agricultural and commercial sectors. FINANCIAL RESULTS The Group delivered strong revenue and gross profit growth of 17%, with revenue of R392 million for the six months ended 30 June 2015 growing to R459 million for the six months ended 30 June 2016, while gross profit grew from R110 million to R129 million. The Board Distribution and Adaptation segment grew revenue by 16% while the Packaging segment grew revenue by 32%, with the latter driven by the expansion of the Gauteng branch of Packit Packaging Solutions and the introduction of new product lines in this segment. Operating expenses were 18% higher than that of the six months ended 30 June 2015. This increase reflects spending to deal with increased activity and to expand existing operations. In addition, the Group's bad debt expense for the six months ended 30 June 2016 was R1.3 million more than that of the previous corresponding period but still within norm for the Group. The high turnover growth of 17%, tempered by increased operating expenditure, lead to earnings growth of 13% for the six months ended 30 June 2016 compared to the previous corresponding period. The Board is thus pleased to report that earnings and headline earnings per share increased from 6.8 cents for the six months ended 30 June 2015 to 7.6 cents and 7.7 cents respectively for the six months ended 30 June 2016. The capital structure of the Group remains sound with a debt to equity ratio of 25% (30 June 2015: 32%) and a net asset base of R183 million at 30 June 2016 (30 June 2015: R159 million) after a distribution to shareholders out of share premium of 5.5 cents per share amounting to R9.5 million. The Group's current ratio at 30 June 2016 was 1.6 (30 June 2015: 1.6). The Group acquired plant and equipment and motor vehicles at a cost of R7.5 million during the reporting period of which R6.7 million was financed by instalment sale liabilities. The significant net overdraft position at 30 June 2016 of R38 million (30 June 2015: R31 million) was the result of paying a large supplier earlier than its normal trading terms for this month only and is the same arrangement which existed on 30 June 2015. The effect on net cash thus reversed during the following month. PROSPECTS On a macro-economic level, KayDav is concerned about deteriorating growth forecasts for South Africa and the effect it might have on investment in property and furniture. On an enterprise level the Group will continue to focus on its value offering to customers in order to maximise its market share. The Group's Packaging business is still a small player in the industry and we are confident of strong growth going forward, especially in the Gauteng market. The Board Distribution and Adaptation segment currently enjoys significant market share and will therefore be more affected by slow or negative macro-economic growth, however we remain convinced that responding to the needs of our customers gives us opportunities for growth. KayDav remains open to acquisition opportunities which will create sustainable value for shareholders. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS The Group made a cash distribution of 5.5 cents per share to shareholders on 23 May 2016. CHANGES TO DIRECTORATE Frank Davidson was appointed as independent non-executive director on 30 June 2016. Shareholders are referred to the Group's SENS announcement on that date in respect of this change.
