COMMENTS
The directors of OneLogix are pleased to present the unaudited condensed
interim financial results for the six months ended 30 November 2008 ("the
interim period").
Basis of preparation
The accounting policies and method of measurement and recognition applied in
preparation of the unaudited condensed interim financial statements are
consistent with those applied in the audited annual financial statements for
the previous year ended May 2008.
The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (`IFRS`),
International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 and the Companies Act (Act 61 of
1973), as amended.
These condensed interim financial results have not been audited or reviewed by
the company`s auditors.
Review of operations
The group`s businesses continued their positive growth trend and performed in
line with expectations during the interim period. The strategic entry into new
niche markets in the logistics sector successfully diversified operations.
Vehicle Delivery Services ("VDS") - recognised superior levels of service
continued to underpin performance as VDS further entrenched its position as a
major competitor in the vehicle logistics market. A strong position in the
cross-border vehicle logistics market was maintained, while market share in the
contracting local passenger market continued to grow aided by consolidation in
the sector. Ongoing investment in people and infrastructure has continued to
realise benefit for the company.
Commercial Vehicle Delivery Services ("CVDS") has proved a successful venture
for entry into the local commercial vehicle logistics market. Leveraging
existing group capability, the company performed ahead of expectations.
PostNet, a national franchised chain of 225 business service outlets for the
high growth SME market, sustained its record performance. The business
continued to demonstrate its resilience to market contraction, evident
throughout its 14 year history, and remains a defensive asset with healthy
growth potential in the OneLogix group.
Media Express continued to perform well and retained a substantial share in the
price sensitive niche market of express delivery service. The group continues
to investigate new opportunities within and associated with this market niche
as additional avenues for future growth. Integrated opportunities with PostNet
are yielding positive results.
Press Support and Magscene together distribute upwards of 30 million newspapers
and magazines per annum direct to the end user. Press Support will continue to
capitalise on opportunities in the airline industry, in which it has an
established footprint, and further its penetration of the leisure and hotel
industry. Magscene intends to increase its spread of titles and control over
distribution channels. Going forward, focus will further be on expanding market
share and improving operational efficiencies in order to optimise
profitability.
4Logix and Gijima are relatively high revenue, low margin businesses that offer
logistics solutions for the rail of bulk commodities to ports throughout South
Africa. A number of long-term contracts continued to drive a steady and
sustainable performance. There is currently a concentrated focus on expansion
into related bulk commodity markets.
Financial results
Solid trading performances resulted in continued growth for OneLogix in the
interim period.
Revenue increased by 31% to R327 million from R249 million for the comparative
interim period ended 30 November 2007 ("the comparative period"). Operating
profit grew by 16% from R33,2 million to R38,4 million, representing 11,7% of
revenue. Revenue grew disproportionately to operating profit due to significant
increases in the fuel price during the period. Net profit before tax was up 14%
to R32 million. This was negatively impacted by increased lending rates in the
interim period. Profit after tax increased 17% to R22,8 million, supported by
the decrease in the Corporate Income Tax rate from 29% to 28%. Headline
earnings per share ("HEPS") grew by 15% to 8,3 cents from 7,2 cents.
Notwithstanding increased working capital requirements commensurate with growth
in revenue, as well as payment of tax (see below), cash flow from operations
increased 86% from R19,6 million to R36,4 million. The group invested R40,3
million in infrastructure, of which R20,0 million relates to expansion of the
VDS fleet, R16,8 million to storage facilities, R2,6 million to IT
infrastructure and R0,9 million to other assets.
As previously announced all tax losses have been reversed and the company is
now in a tax-paying position. Accordingly taxes of R8,0 million were paid
during the interim period, compared to R1,9 million in the comparative period.
The group`s debtors days have improved despite growth in revenue and strict
working capital policies remain in place.
Prospects
Revenue is historically weighted to the first half of the financial year.
Adverse economic conditions globally and locally are expected to impact on the
group in the six months ahead to year-end, particularly as regards the
contracting automotive industry. However, this economic landscape is expected
to drive significant consolidation in the sectors in which the group operates.
The attractive acquisition opportunities expected to arise, which could enhance
the group`s current areas of focus and facilitate expansion into aligned niche
markets, should help to offset a potential slowing of organic growth.
The group`s focus on highly competitive offerings to growth niche markets
remains a key strength, which is well supported by established infrastructure
and experienced and motivated management.
People
We are satisfied that the strong management teams and staff, undergoing
continual training and skills development, are well equipped to deliver on
strategic and operational objectives.
We thank our management, employees, business partners, customers, suppliers,
business advisors and shareholders for their continued and invaluable support.
