1. COMPANY PROFILE
TeleMasters is a fully licenced fixed-line telecommunication service provider.
It operates exclusively in the South African corporate market. The company
provides clients access to the most efficient and effective telecommunication
technologies and services.
2. FINANCIAL RESULTS
2.1 Statement of compliance and basis of preparation
The interim financial statements for the three months ended 31 December 2011
have been presented in accordance with the framework concepts and the
measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting
Standards, the information required by IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, the
South African Companies Act, as amended, the AC500 Standards as issued by the
Accounting Practices Board and the JSE Listings Requirements. The results have
been prepared in accordance with accounting policies of the Company that are
consistent with those applied in the audited annual financial statements for the
year ended 30 September 2010 and the reviewed results for the year ended 30
September 2011. These results were prepared under the supervision of Brandon
Topham CA(SA) and have not been reviewed or audited by the Company`s auditors.
2.2 Commentary on financial results and prospects
The first quarter reflects management`s expectations as voiced earlier that 2012
will be a tough transitional year. The traditional least-cost routing (LCR)
turnover decreased by 35% over the corresponding previous period due to the loss
of 2 large clients that reached the end of tender periods. Expectations are that
no more LCR tenders will be issued in future. The licenced telecoms services are
being rolled out and have reached 260 clients. The challenge is to exceed the
loss of revenue with the conversion of 600 long-standing current clients and the
acquisition of new clients to the company`s Digital Direct service. A further
R1.6m has been invested in capital acquisition in order to upgrade the
interconnect facilities to be independent of 3rd party vendors and so increase
the quality of service. The company has amended its billing, processes, sales
model, logistics and technical support to serve the requirements of cellular and
fixed line billing and facilitate geographic number porting successfully. A
number of learning experiences were inevitable and structural and procedural
adjustments were made to decrease response time and increase efficiency of
service provision. The company expects an ever-increasing level of quality and
its current level of voice service quality rivals any other offering in the
market. With increased billing the company will realise economies of scale in
its operations and fixed cost components. Operating expenditure has remained
constant and active measures to reduce this are being implemented. Gross margin
is expected to increase as number porting is rolled out and incoming call
revenues are realised. The company has sufficient reserves to ensure the roll
out of the needed technology. A lower interim dividend for the period was
declared to allow for conservative cash flow management.
2.3. Dividends
On 21 December 2011, the board declared a quarterly interim dividend of 1 cent
per share, which was paid to all shareholders recorded in the share register of
the Company at the close of business on Friday, 13 January 2011.
During the first quarter of the prior financial year, which ended on 31 December
2010, the Company declared an interim dividend of 4 cents per share for that
quarter.
2.4. Acquisition of property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment acquired during the quarter comprise various items
of Furniture and fittings, Motor vehicles, Office equipment, IT equipment and
Routers and handsets.
3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The directors are not aware of any matter or circumstance arising since the
reporting date which would have a material effect on the consolidated results or
the consolidated financial position of the Company as reported.
4. CHANGES IN THE COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD & SHARE CAPITAL
There have been no changes to the composition of the board nor to the share
capital of the Company.
