13 September 2010

NetDimensions (Holdings) Limited

("NetDimensions" or the "Company")

 

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2010

 

NetDimensions is a global software provider that provides companies, government agencies and other organizations with enterprise-class performance, knowledge and learning management related software and services, enabling its clients to manage the delivery and administration of their training programs.

 

NetDimensions continues to deliver strong trading performance

 

Financial Highlights

·; Revenue increased 11% to US$3.38m (H1'09: US$3.05m)

·; Loss of US$0.26m (H1'09: Profit of US$0.41m) includes a US$0.15m unrealized exchange loss and an operating loss of US$0.08m primarily due to planned infrastructure build-up

·; Headcount up to 73 from 50 at the end of H1'09 (Headcount at year end: 56)

·; Cash at bank of US$6.3m - equates to 16.7p in cash per share (based on 30 June 2010 currency rates)

·; Second half sales are expected to be stronger, in line with the Company's historical trends

 

 

Operations Highlights

·; Completed acquisition of the EKP client business from Intellego Holdings plc, the Company's UK-based reseller

·; Established a UK office in Guildford near London, to handle the acquired customers and generally strengthen our services and support capabilities in the Europe, Middles East and Africa (EMEA) region

·; Added 45 new clients including the Copesan Services, Inc., the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa Limited and the Central Bank of Kenya

·; Launched the 6.1 version of the Company's flagship product, The Enterprise Knowledge Platform

 

Commenting on the results Roger Durn, Chairman, said: "We have achieved encouraging revenue growth, especially in the EMEA region despite uncertainty and ongoing European financial turmoil, and added 45 new clients in the last six months. With this solid first half performance and our current pipeline, we expect to continue to see strong sales growth during the second half of the year."

 

"NetDimensions has decided it is time to invest in geographic expansion and broadening the product and services portfolio, both organically and strategically, to leap frog our growth for 2011 after our successful acquisition and integration of the EKP client business from Intellego Holdings plc. In addition, shortly after the half-year close the Company settled a patent infringement case, which the board believes is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. These moves are likely to lead to some short-term profit reduction but enhance the Company's long-term viability and market position."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

 

Financial Summary

 

The Company made good progress in supporting 2010 growth with a sales increase of 11% to US$3.38 million for the first half of the year (2009: US$3.05 million); however, infrastructure investment expenses and an unrealized exchange loss led to a loss of US$0.26 million for the period.

 

Despite the European market uncertainty in the first half of the year, revenues increased in the EMEA region, an area in which we have placed great emphasis in our sales and marketing strategy. EMEA generated 58.2% of total revenues compared to 42.6% in the same period in 2009.

 

As of 30 June 2010, the Company maintained a strong cash position with cash balances of US$6.3 million and no debt.

 

The Board is not recommending the payment of dividend at this time due to cash conservation for future Company growth. However, it is the Board's intention to pay dividends in the future.

 

Operations Review

 

In the first half of 2010, NetDimensions acquired its United Kingdom reseller's EKP distribution business and related assets and subsequently set up a UK operation to strengthen the Company's EMEA-wide marketing and sales activities.

 

As part of the Company's goal of continuous product improvement, we released a new version of our flagship product, EKP 6.1. In addition,after the period end we launched Mobile EKP (mEKP), an entirely new product classdesigned to give users anywhere, anytime learning on a Flash drive.

 

First half new client wins came from both direct and partner-led sales worldwide. In the six months under review, we won 45 new clients, many of which operate in highly regulated, compliance driven environments and aim to generate efficiencies through the application of NetDimensions products.

 

Current Trading and Outlook

 

NetDimensions' business continues to expand and generate strong cash flow. We have maintained a healthy cash level, with cash balances on 30 June 2010 of US$6.3 million, mostly held in US Dollars (31 December 2009: US$7.44 million). This equates to approximately 16.7p in cash per share at 30 June 2010 currency rates (31 December 2009: 16.5p in cash per share).

 

NetDimensions' strong cash position since flotation has provided a solid financial base for the company to continue to develop and improve its market offerings. The Board believes that having prudently maintained the Company's cash balance has left NetDimensions well placed to take advantage of strategic acquisition opportunities, which it believes will significantly enhance long-term shareholder value.

We believe our target markets will continue to show demand despite the current economic uncertainties, particularly in highly regulated and compliance driven industries and in outwardly focused, extended enterprise deployments.

 

These last six months have been a successful period with the Company recording encouraging revenue growth. The Board is confident the Company is positioned to continue to expand.

(b) Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)

 

The Group applies IFRS 3 (Revised) "Business Combinations" prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition data is on or after 1 January 2010. The requirements in IAS 27 (Revised) "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements" in relation to accounting for changes in ownership interests in a subsidiary after control is obtained and for loss of control of a subsidiary are also applied prospectively by the Group on or after 1 January 2010.

 

As there was no transaction during the current interim period in which IFRS 3 (Revised) and IAS 27 (Revised) are applicable, the application of IFRS 3 (Revised), IAS 27 (Revised) and the consequential amendments to other IFRSs had no effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the current or prior accounting periods.

 

Results of the Group in future periods may be affected by future transactions for which IFRS 3 (Revised), IAS 27 (Revised) and the consequential amendments to the other IFRSs are applicable.

 

The application of the other new and revised IFRSs had no effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the current or prior accounting periods.

 

The Group has not early applied the following new or revised standards, amendments or interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

 

(b) Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)

 

 

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and will be effective from 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted. The Standard requires all recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to be measured at either amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that (i) are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows and (ii) have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at fair value. The application of IFRS 9 might affect the classification and measurement of the Group's financial assets.

 

The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of other new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Group.

 

In addition, the Group acquired a list of customers which has been classified as intangible assets and certain available-for-sale securities during the period. The accounting policies of available-for-sale financial asset arising from the acquisition are summarized as below:

 

Available-for-sale financial assets

 

The Group classifies its financial assets as available-for-sale and measured at fair value with fair value gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income.

 

When financial assets classified as available for sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the income statement as "gains and losses from investment securities".

 

Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognized in the income statement as part of other revenue. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in the income statement as part of other revenue when the Group's right to receive payments is established.

11. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

 

The Group has settled a complaint for patent infringement served within the United States on 25 March 2010 by the US District Court, Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division. The plaintiff was IpLearn LLC, a California Limited Liability Company, and was against eight defendants, which included the Group. The Board believes that there has been no patent infringement, but has decided that settling the dispute quickly is in the best interest of both the Company and its shareholders. The settlement terms are confidential under United States law but all outstanding matters have been resolved.
