RNS Number : 6319B Webis Holdings PLC 30 October 2009 Webis Holdings plc ("the Group") Trading Statement 30 October 2009 The board of Webis Holdings plc, the global on-line gaming group, is pleased to provide the following trading update in relation to the Group's performance for the current financial year. European Wagering Services ("EWS") EWS, our pari-mutuel operation, continues to generate growth despite a backdrop of generally negative industry trends. The current economic climate within the United States has impacted on racetrack attendance and consequently the size of betting pools has reduced. Nevertheless, the traffic through the link2bet.com website is experiencing consistent month-on-month growth, which has fully offset a reduction in business through the call centre. It remains the board's intention, as part of its long-term strategy for EWS, to continue to increase marketing spend on the site to attract higher margin leisure players, in particular by using promotions in US-focused horse and greyhound related media. The board has also committed to increased marketing activity within Europe during the Breeders' Cup, which takes place at Santa Anita racetrack in California on 6 and 7 November 2009, where a strong contingent of European horses will be taking on the best from the United States. EWS has obtained fully authorised access rights to the official racetrack pools for this prestigious event. betinternet.com ("betinternet") Turnover through the betinternet fixed-odds sportsbook has remained consistent at last year's final quarter level, although the business was not immune to the widely reported adverse results at the start of the current football season, which have had a negative effect throughout the sports betting industry. This initially affected the gross margin for the sportsbook, although from mid-September onwards, results have been more favourable. At the start of the period, the business also experienced a downturn in 'high-roller' play within its casinos and as a result betinternet's overall margin for the first half thus far, including casinos and games, has been lower than expected. However, in line with the Company's strategy, betinternet has continued to both increase the variety of markets on offer and enhance the sportsbook's internal systems, with a view to generating a sustained increase in the margin during the second half. In summary, because of the factors affecting betinternet at the start of the current financial year, the Group's overall performance for the first five months is below the board's expectations. Trading conditions over the last few weeks have, however, improved and the board continues to be optimistic as to the Group's prospects for the rest of the current financial year. The board's confidence in its strategies for both businesses also remains undiminished. The board expects to release its Interim Report for the period ending 29 November 2009 during February 2010.

Chairman's Statement
Introduction
It gives me great pleasure to report the results of Webis Holdings plc for the financial year ended 31 May 2009. The Company has again generated strong growth during the year and this is reflected in a 20% increase in Group turnover to £140m (2008: £117m) and a £542,000 increase in EBITDA to £757,000 (2008: £215,000). The Group also generated a pre-tax profit of £452,000 (2008: £347,000 loss).
During the year, the Company made a number of advances within its pari-mutuel operation, European Wagering Services Limited ("EWS") and its sportsbook operation, betinternet.com (IOM) Limited ("betinternet") despite the challenging global economic climate.
European Wagering Services
EWS' business model has remained resilient and the operation has successfully widened its sources of income across its call centre, internet and B2B revenue streams and is now generating good growth through the upgraded link2bet.com website, which was launched in September 2008. The strategy of bringing website development work in-house has had a positive impact as this has enabled us to maintain better control over our schedule of planned program enhancements. The board anticipates that business through the website will continue to be the key growth area for EWS in the forthcoming year and plans to invest in additional development resource to enable us to further improve our customers' experience within a shorter timeframe.
As planned, we have upgraded some of our EWS technical hardware systems to assist with the integration of additional payment solutions to the link2bet website. These upgrades have the added benefit of enhancing reliability and access to the hub for our B2B customers and provide us with a platform to build future improvements more speedily and effectively.
In addition to these technical advances, increasing racetrack content has also been a continuing key focus of the EWS operation. The previously notified approval to use Churchill Downs and Magna racetrack content is still pending, whilst the board reviews the potential impact of Magna Entertainment Corp's unexpected filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States. We continue to monitor developments and assess our position in relation to this matter.
EWS has built up a strong relationship with its California-based racetrack settlement agent and this has resulted in a more efficient and cost-effective collection process. Recently, a small number of minor racetracks in the US have entered administration, indicating how the economic downturn is impacting leisure spend in the US. EWS has a limited exposure to racetrack failures and the board regularly monitors its position on a track-by-track basis to keep this exposure to a minimum.
betinternet
The betinternet.com sportsbook saw growth in full year turnover, particularly during the second half as a result of an increased marketing spend and the introduction of a new affiliates' scheme that was launched in November 2008.
The Company's strategy has been to commit to a sustained run of horse racing sponsorship to re-establish the betinternet brand in the UK and Ireland. We have now been sponsoring regularly for over 18 months, predominantly at 'tier-one' racetracks including Ascot, Newmarket and Sandown Park. This sponsorship brings us strongly targeted brand exposure, especially where there is the added benefit of terrestrial television coverage in the UK and it is pleasing to see that this strategy continues to attract new customers to the website. Our horse racing betting turnover has gone from zero in 2007 to represent over 11% of our overall turnover in the last month of the financial year, with the majority of this business having been generated by new customers.
Another instant contributor to our sportsbook's growth has been the introduction of an enhanced 'In-Running' football offering, which allows our customers the opportunity to bet on matches as they are being played. We are now able to provide a number of different betting markets on a substantially increased number of live matches and have recruited specific 'In-Running' traders to augment this improved service.
Our new affiliate scheme has made a strong positive impact on our rate of customer acquisition. We are now offering a very competitive revenue share to affiliates for sign-ups through this scheme and are working closely with our affiliate partner, Income Access, to make our offering more attractive.
Overview of Results
The results for the financial year ended 31 May 2009 show Group turnover increased to £140 million (2008: £117 million) and gross profit increased by 21% to £3.4 million (2008: £2.8 million), representing a slightly improved gross margin of 2.43% (2008: 2.38%).
Earnings at EBITDA level increased to £757,000 (2008: £215,000) and operating profit of £475,000 (2008: £34,000) was achieved.
Operating expenses rose slightly for the year to £2.6 million (2008: £2.5 million) as we continued with our commitment to invest in sportsbook marketing. We have also improved our technical systems by investing in hardware upgrades for both EWS and betinternet which have added resilience and enhanced security within our customer-facing systems.
Excluding marketing, our general expenses are in line with 2008. The board anticipates a decrease in expenditure as our requirement for office space has significantly reduced, following the relocation off-site of our website hosting. Our existing leases are due to expire during the forthcoming year and we anticipate negotiating lower cost accommodation.
Further analysis of the results is presented in the Operational Review.
Convertible Loan Note
As announced in the Interim Report, the Company has agreed to extend the repayment date of a £300,000 convertible loan note with Burnbrae Ltd, from 23 February 2009 to 23 February 2011.
Proposed resolutions at the forthcoming AGM
At the forthcoming AGM, shareholders are being asked to consider and support a Special Resolution, the details of which are below. I would request that shareholders pay particular attention to resolution 6, which outlines the board's intention, subject to shareholder approval, to apply for court approval in due course to cancel the share premium account, thereby partially offsetting historical accumulated losses and enabling the board to utilise any future distributable reserves for the declaration and subsequent payment of dividends, as and when appropriate.
Summary
It has been another positive year for Webis Holdings and to be able to report the Company's most successful set of results ever in the face of a global downturn clearly demonstrates that the board's strategies continue to be set correctly for the business. We expect that the forthcoming year will provide us with continued expansion opportunities within both our sportsbook and EWS operations and we approach it with buoyed confidence.
My thanks go to the employees of Webis Holdings for their continued commitment and contribution throughout this successful year.
Denham Eke
Chairman
Operational Review
This year has been another period of strong growth for Webis Holdings plc, both in financial and non-financial terms. The Company has reached a position where it is able to take advantage of the opportunities available to an expanding global gaming company and, as outlined in further detail below, I believe that we have made good progress in capitalising on these opportunities this year, both within our pari-mutuel operation, European Wagering Services ("EWS") and our sportsbook, betinternet.com ("betinternet").
These results, which include the Company's highest operating profit in its history, have also been achieved in a year when the economic downturn has had a significant adverse impact on many industries. Although the gaming sector will never be completely immune to these external influences, it remains resilient, as it is able to offer alternative forms of entertainment for customers who choose to 'stay at home' more often than previously. With technology improving at such a fast rate, home entertainment, including online gaming, has become a compelling alternative to many traditional leisure activities. The advance of the 'Smartphone' now also offers the Company a new route to market that provides a significantly enhanced user experience for our customers and the Company plans to take advantage of this key growth opportunity in the new financial year. Now that the Company is cash-generative, it is also in a considerably stronger position to take advantage of this and other future developments in the sector.
Our pari-mutuel business, EWS, has remained our prime source of earnings during the financial year. It has continued to provide a very stable base and the developments to our link2bet.com website have been key to generating a better balance of EWS' revenues across our three routes to market - call centre, website and direct hub access The implementation of easy-to-use payment solutions for our website customers has been a crucial step forward and towards the end of the reporting period, following on from the website enhancements made, we initiated some low-level targeted marketing for link2bet.
We have continued to invest in EWS' technology, installing an additional hardware component which enables us to maximise our channels of distribution for both end-user customers and B2B solutions. We expect to have our hosting solution resolved in due course and we are currently considering alternatives that had not previously been available, the overriding aim being to choose a solution that maximises the long-term benefits to the Company and our customers.
The betinternet sportsbook has shown encouraging growth in turnover that bodes well for the future. In particular, we generated increased revenues in our sports betting channel, following the launch in November 2008 of our updated affiliates' scheme.
We are also pleased with the response to our new 'In-Running' football module that offers additional betting markets whilst matches are in progress. Since the launch of this product in February 2009, we now regularly offer 'In-Running' betting on approximately three times as many matches than previously and this is generating a sustained increase in betinternet's overall turnover and margin.
Another success has been the increased turnover that we are generating on horse racing. We have been promoting a number of attractive offers to customers to achieve this increase, such as 'Best Odds Guaranteed'. Whilst these promotions have an effect on margin, the board views this investment as key to its long-term strategy for the business. Our sponsorship programme at UK racetracks has been ongoing throughout the year and continues to bring us strong brand association and recognition in our target markets. We have budgeted for a similar strategy in the forthcoming year.
Although betinternet's overall margin was impacted by a series of poor football results towards the end of the European season and a reduction in our casino contributions at around the same time, we believe that we are making good progress in taking this part of our business forward.
Results
The Group achieved a profit for the period of £452,000 compared to a loss of £347,000 last year.
The Group generated an operating profit of £475,000 (2008:£34,000). Operating expenses remained in line with expectations. Within the financial year we were able to allocate funds to enable us to make a number of hardware upgrades for both EWS and betinternet.
Current trading and outlook
EWS' trading has performed in line with the board's expectations throughout the first quarter of the new financial year, despite evidence of an overall downturn in US pari-mutuel wagering. Following the re-launch of the link2bet website, EWS has tested various online marketing activities, mainly through targeted online advertising banners in thoroughbred and greyhound media. The overall effect of this activity, combined with the website improvements, has been encouraging, with a 31% increase in active customers using the link2bet service and with online turnover increasing by 26% in the first quarter compared with the same period last year. The new players recruited have generated a higher margin for EWS and are helping to move EWS' business mix significantly away from its historical reliance on 'high-roller' customers.
The board is optimistic about the outlook for EWS for the rest of the year. Following the positive results of the test marketing, we will be rolling out further targeted marketing activities, specifically aimed at recruiting recreational horse racing players. Our aim is to increase customer numbers on the site and improve the overall margin derived from on-line wagering. In addition, following the investment in the hardware and wagering platform, we believe that EWS is now better positioned to benefit from business development opportunities, mainly in the form of recruiting new B2B clients requiring direct access to a wagering hub.
We are in the process of introducing more automated systems for betinternet that will further reduce reliance on time-consuming, labour intensive processes. This will also allow us to expand our offering to customers, especially in the 'In Running' area on sports other than football, which in turn will enhance our competitive position.
In August 2009, we launched a 'Smartphone' application for betinternet that has been optimised for the iPhone and will also work on most mobile browsers. The board is of the view that most consumers will have browser-based mobile phones within the next two years and it makes most sense to develop an application that is future-proof, rather than trying to support a myriad of different handsets using differing technologies. The launch of this additional route to market has been well received by our customers, especially in Asia.
Whilst there has been no major football tournament this summer, the impact on betinternet's turnover was less than in previous years as we are now generating higher turnover from our horse racing offering than previously.
We have recently commissioned external reports on the usability and search engine performance of the betinternet.com website and plan to allocate development resource with a view to identifying further improvements in these specific areas during the forthcoming year.
In summary, the board believes that betinternet and EWS have the opportunity to further increase their market share in the forthcoming year. We continue to seek innovative ways to achieve this and the Group is now in a much stronger position to implement the board's long-term strategy for the business.

7 Earnings per ordinary share
The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based on the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the Period.
The calculation of the diluted earnings per share is based on the basic earnings per share, adjusted to allow for the issue of shares, on the assumed conversion of all dilutive options.
An adjustment for the dilutive effect of share options and convertible debt in the previous Period has not been reflected in the calculation of the diluted loss per share, as the effect would have
been anti-dilutive.
