Braime Group PLC
("Braime" or the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries
the "Group")
Interim Results for the six months ended 30th June 2022
The Company presents its unaudited interims results for the six
months ended 30 June 2022:
Performance
As set out in our 2021 Annual Report announced on 27(th) April
2022, the directors had significant concerns about the
macro-economic challenges facing the Group. These concerns remain,
however, the directors are very pleased to report that Group sales
revenue for the first six months of 2022 increased by 17% to
GBP21.3m when compared to GBP18.2m for the same period in 2021,
while profit before tax increased to GBP1.6m compared to GBP885,000
for the same period in 2021. The retained profit for the six-month
period includes a further GBP350,000 provision for repairs to our
chain cell area in anticipation of additional costs as previously
announced in June 2022. Profit from operations before exceptional
items was GBP2.1m compared to GBP984,000 for the same six
month-period last year. All sectors of the Group have performed
strongly, following a sustained surge in customer demand, which the
directors attribute to recovery from the covid pandemic alongside
constraints in the supply chain which have driven up prices. The
automotive sector has continued to perform well after the upturn in
the spring of 2021 and the 4B division has also seen strong
performances especially in the USA and Australia.
The performance of the Group has benefited from Sterling
weakening against the US dollar during 2022. A significant
proportion of the Group's income is earned in the USA, and
consequently, Sterling weakening from a rate of 1.348 at the end of
2021 to 1.214 at the end of June 2022 results in an increase in
profit for the Group when reported in Sterling. The results also
include GBP186,000 of profit (shown in other operating income)
derived from the disposal of the Group's property in Lamotte
Warfussee, following the relocation of 4B France's business to its
new warehouse at Villers Bretonneux. Accordingly, the trading
performance of the Group in the first half of the year has
surpassed previous periods.
Dividends
In line with the Group's policy to maintain dividend growth,
balanced alongside the Group's requirement for investment in
capital to support long term growth, the directors have decided to
increase the interim dividend from 4.25p to 4.75p per share. This
dividend will be paid on 14th October 2022 to the Ordinary and 'A'
Ordinary shareholders on the register on the 30th September 2022.
The associated ex-dividend date is 29(th) September 2022.
Braime Pressings Limited
External sales revenue of GBP3.0m in the first 6 months of 2022
was 13% up on the same period last year driven by strong demand
from the automotive sector as well as an increase in steel
commodity prices which has driven up sales prices. Intercompany
sales also increased by GBP666,000 driven by stronger turnover in
the 4B division. The manufacturing division made a profit before
tax of GBP516,000 as a result of the higher demand for its
products.
4B Division
Our distribution division's external sales revenue of GBP18.3m
increased by 18% when compared to GBP15.6m for the same period last
year. Intercompany trading increased by 17% to GBP3.1m compared to
GBP2.6m for the same period in 2021. The division has benefitted
from an increase in demand across most geographical and product
sectors as customers have started to invest in new projects
following the Covid pandemic. The GBP2.8m increase in external
sales has had a positive direct impact on profitability, with
profit after tax for the 4B division for the six-month period
increasing to GBP1.4m as compared to GBP494,000 for the same period
last year.
Balance Sheet
Net assets of the Group as at 30th June 2022 amounted to
GBP17.3m (30th June 2021 - GBP15.4m). Tangible fixed asset
additions in during the period amounted to GBP893,000. Of this,
GBP570,000 relates to the new climate-controlled warehouse at our
Leeds headquarters which became operational in May 2022. Other
capital investments relate to items of manufacturing equipment and
IT expenditure. Intangible fixed asset additions of GBP725,000
relate to the purchase of the exclusive sales rights and customer
lists for a specialised range of electronic components used in the
bulk material handing industry, which complement and enhance the 4B
division's existing products.
Inventory of GBP11.2m has increased by GBP2.1m when compared to
30th June 2021 and increased by GBP1.1m when compared to 31st
December 2021. This is in part due to large increases in raw
material prices, and in part, due to stocking up to meet increased
customer demand and mitigate against turbulence in the supply
chain. Trade receivables of GBP8.5m have increased by GBP1.0m when
compared to 30th June 2021 and increased by GBP2.3m when compared
to 31st December 2021. This increase is a direct consequence of the
rise in revenue in 2022, and in fact, the Group's overall debtor
days are lower than as at June 2021 and the same as at December
2021. Trade payables of GBP6.1m have increased by GBP729,000 when
compared to 30th June 2021 and increased by GBP1.2m when compared
to 31st December 2021 in line with expectations from the increased
purchases of stock.
Cash flow
The net cash position of the Group at the end of June 2022 was
GBP201,000 overdrawn. Cash generated from operations before working
capital movements was GBP2.5m. Working capital (inventory,
receivables and payables) increases for the six-month period came
to GBP1.7m as a consequence of increased trading activity outlined
above. Provisions, which all relate to the Chain Cell project,
increased by GBP115,000, being the net of the additional GBP350,000
mentioned above and amounts utilised during the period, whilst
investment in capital projects gave rise to outflows of GBP1.6m.
Proceeds from disposal of GBP218,000 relate primarily to the sale
of the old French property. The impact on cash of loans movement
was negligible, the Group having repaid GBP233,000 of capital
whilst taking up new loans of GBP236,000. Overall, net cash reduced
by GBP1.2m during the six months to 30th June 2022. The business
has sufficient headroom within its GBP3.5m bank overdraft facility
and management remain focused in ensuring that working capital
requirements, particularly for stock and debtors, are carefully
monitored and controlled.
Principal exchange rates
The Group reports its results in Sterling, its presentational
currency. The Group operates in six other currencies and the
average of the principal exchange rates in use during the half year
and as at 30th June 2022 are shown in the table below, along with
comparatives. As mentioned previously, a significant proportion of
the Group revenues are in the USA, and the Group has incurred
foreign exchange gains from the strengthening of the US dollar
against the Sterling since 31st December 2021. The gain on
translation of overseas assets amounted to GBP604,000 for the
six-month period, as shown in the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income table on page 5.

Notes to KPI's
1. Turnover growth
The Group aims to increase shareholder value by measuring the
year-on-year growth in Group revenue. Revenues are up due to the
strong demand in both the manufacturing and material handling
sectors and a rise in raw material prices.
2. Gross margin
Gross profit (revenue less change in inventories and raw
materials used) as a percentage of revenue is monitored to maximise
profits available for reinvestment and distribution to
shareholders. Gross margin is in line with the same period last
year. This is particularly pleasing given the increase in unit cost
of sales. The directors continue to monitor the margins carefully
for further movement.
3. Operating profit
Sustainable growth in operating profit is a strategic priority
to enable ongoing investment and increase shareholder value.
Operating profits have improved as a direct result of the increase
in sales in both the manufacturing and the 4B division.
4. Stock days
The average value of inventories divided by raw materials and
consumables used and changes in inventories of finished goods and
work in progress expressed as a number of days is monitored to
ensure the right level of stocks are held in order to meet customer
demands whilst not carrying excessive amounts which impacts upon
working capital requirements. Stock days have reduced despite the
absolute value of inventory increasing with as a result of the
strong sales performance in the period. This reflects management's
continued focus on working capital.
5. Debtor days
The average value of trade receivables divided by revenue
expressed as a number of days. This is an important indicator of
working capital requirements. Debtor days at 54 days are below the
standard payment terms of 60 days and have improved from the same
period last year. Management remain focused on reducing this to
improve cash.
Other metrics monitored weekly or monthly include quality
measures (such as customer complaints), raw materials buying
prices, capital expenditure, line utilisation, reportable accidents
and near-misses.
Outlook for the second half of 2022
As advised above, many aspects of our Group profile and the
exchange rate movement in the first six months of 2022 have
contributed to the Group's exceptionally good interim result, a
result which has far exceeded our expectations at the start of the
year.
Some of these factors may continue to benefit the Group for the
remainder of this year. However, at some point, the current global
recession is going to have negative effects on us too. The likely
fall in consumer demand will inevitably reduce the demand for truck
parts, both for new commercial vehicles and for spares, high demand
for which has been driven over the past 12 months by high consumer
demand post the pandemic. Most of the large infrastructure projects
which had been delayed by the pandemic have or are reaching
completion.
Although most of our customers handling, distributing and
processing cereals will continue to benefit from the current very
high commodity prices, ultimately even their new investment will be
more cautious given the increase in the cost of new machinery and
because of higher interest rates where needed to finance
investments. Large areas where investment has been very high in
recent years remain "no go" areas due to the ongoing conflict in
Ukraine.
While thus far, our margins have benefited from our policy of
substantially increasing our stocks ahead of the huge cost increase
in raw materials, the effect of these cost increases will
increasingly feed through and result in lower gross margins. We are
also going to see the direct negative impact of increases in our
own overhead costs following on from much higher energy and freight
costs. The unknown is not a question of if these negative factors
will affect us, but of when, and the degree.
Nevertheless, the Group remains well placed to weather these
adversities. Our main concerns, and principal risks, remain the
Group's exposure to currency fluctuations and the very large
negative impact of much higher costs on our cash flow. Cash flow is
an issue we are focused on and continuously and carefully
monitoring, while still aiming to complete the long-term capex
investments already in progress.
Employees
All our employees in the Group, regardless of location continue
to make a major contribution and we thank them for their
efforts.
