Chief Executive's Statement
Operating Review
I am pleased to report our annual results for the year ended 30th June 2006.
Having achieved regulatory authorisation in August 2005 and LSE membership in
May 2006, we have since focused on building up both our customer base, and our
profile with investment banks and brokers in the City, together with further
developing our systems. As expected, revenue over this profile-building phase
has been minimal. Total administrative costs have risen in the year from
#274,000 to #882,000, however this includes eleven months depreciation charge on
the system costs compared to nil last year and a full year amortisation charge
of #375,000 on the value of the investment compared to nil last year. Whilst the
losses have increased, we have strengthened the balance sheet by virtually
doubling the cash in the bank from the previous year end to almost #1,000,000.
Current Trading
In line with expectations, trading has been at a minimal level as we have
cleared regulation and begun marketing ourselves to the issuers. This is a
time-consuming but essential task and I'm happy to report that we have made good
progress in gaining profile. As we have been introducing city investment banks
to our platform we have had the opportunity to make various IPOs available to
our growing user base of private investors. Consequentially we have linked up
with Stocktrade and Etrade to bring the All IPO platform to their customers.
The IPOs we have carried this year have varied in size from small unlisted or
Ofex junior market stocks to VCT funds to Full List products. Each has
highlighted the capabilities of the system to seamlessly take offers and make
them available on the net quickly, efficiently and effectively. In addition, we
have been able to make selected AIM products available as well as QinetiQ, which
was a Full List privatisation.
QinetiQ was a last minute public offering which was available for just a short
period of time and even then only via an awkward set of technical
accommodations. However it generated healthy levels of private investor
subscription through the site, which demonstrated the ease and flexibility of
using the All IPO platform on a bigger scale and sets the scene for future
involvement in larger flotations.
As time passes, the size and number of IPOs obtained by All IPO has increased
and this pipeline has continued to grow as the City becomes accustomed to the
potential of our platform.
All IPO is still at an early stage of exploiting the opportunity of online IPOs
while our progress is accelerating and our pipeline of potential IPOs expands.
In our short time as a company, we have rebuilt the platform, been cleared by
the FSA via a detailed and exhaustive evaluation, been accepted as members of
the London Stock Exchange and made IPOs available from unlisted, Ofex, AIM and '
Full List' companies. In addition, we have presented our credentials to all the
major investment banks and many associated parties and strengthened our balance
sheet with an institutionally-backed secondary placing.
Prospects
The potential of the market and the efficiency, cost-effectiveness and ease of
use of All IPO was underlined again after the year end with our involvement in
the privatisation flotation of Aer Lingus. As a well known corporate brand, the
float generated significant private investor demand on All IPO. The ability of
All IPO to provide private investors with access to the Aer Lingus IPO, an Irish
stock denominated in Euros, in such a short time frame is a clear demonstration
of the power and flexibility of the All IPO platform. Meanwhile the Government
has stated that it wishes to privatise many of its shareholdings in enterprises
such as the Tote and British Energy and we are working hard to win inclusion for
the private investor.
All IPO is an excellent solution for any transaction that is to be made
available to a large group of individuals and as such is an ideal,
cost-effective route for any government transactions that are not restricted to
institutions. We are therefore optimistic that we will be part of the process,
as we were with QinetiQ.
With All IPO entering a new phase we have taken the opportunity to reshape our
Board with Chris Newland, Robert Emmet and Robert Clinton joining and Jacob
Kinde, Frank Dullaghan and Haakon Overli stepping down. We'd like to thank them
very much for their input over this formative period of the business and wish
them good luck with their respective burgeoning business affairs.
All IPO is now in the next phase of its development where we are confident of
bringing increasing product flow to the system and beginning to monetise the
opportunity. Our steady progress leads us to expect solid gains in the coming
year.
