30-09-09	Relax Group PLC - Interim Results	RNS
This news article is displayed preformatted as it may contain results tables RNS Number : 9133Z Relax Group PLC 30 September 2009 Relax Group PLC INTERIM Report and Accounts for the SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 jUNE 2009 The Relax Group today announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2009. Relax Group plc is a leading provider of a range of consumer debt related solutions, including Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs), Protected Trust Deeds (PTDs), Debt Management Programmes (DMPs), bankruptcy, secured loans and remortgages, to over-indebted individuals. Financial Headlines * Total group revenue �2.9m (6 months to 31 July 2008 restated: �5.8m) * Operating loss before exceptional charges �2.5m (6 months to 31 July 2008 restated loss: �0.7m ) * Basic loss per share 22.27p (6 months to 31 July 2008 loss: 7.16p) * Net debt increased to �4.1m (31 July 2008: �3.3m) * Historical results have been restated for a change in accounting policy in relation to intangible assets Operational Headlines * Credit crunch and, in particular, lack of available lines of credit to loan providers has severely affected the secured loans brokerage business acquired with Relax Finance in 2008 * Loan brokerage business re-engineered to sell remortgage products and life insurance * Overall revenues also reduced by a revision of accounting estimates used in evaluating work in progress * Appointment of Ken Gaskell as Chief Executive Officer on 20 July 2009 and John Simms as Acting Finance Director on 11 August 2009 * Strategic review completed and turnaround plan initiated * Headcount reduced from 224 at December 2008 to 127 by September 2009 Outlook * The Group's cost base has been reduced significantly and the resultant leaner business is well positioned to benefit from favourable market conditions in the debt management sector and the anticipated recovery in the remortgage broking market * As has been previously announced, banking facilities have been closely monitored. It is expected that the change in accounting policy will have an effect on the formal banking covenants going forward. The Group's bankers have provided financial support and continue to do so however, the Group requires a capital injection to reduce debt and provide working capital to grow the business * The Group is at an advanced stage in negotiations to raise further funds and the future of the Group is dependent upon a successful conclusion to the discussions with its lenders and the capital injection Enquiries: Ken Gaskell/Bernard Asher 020 7898 0512 Relax Group plc Stephen Keys/Beth McKiernan 020 7397 8900 Cenkos Securities plc INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT for the SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 jUNE 2009 Results In the six months to 30 June 2009, group turnover was �2.9m (6 months to 31 July 2008: �5.8m) and the operating loss before exceptional charges was �2.5m (6 months to 31 July 2008 loss �0.7m). The reduction in turnover was largely due to the impact of the credit crunch on the secured loans brokerage business where the lines of credit available to the providers of such loans reduced dramatically and a revision of accounting estimates used in evaluating work in progress. The increased operating loss is due to the reduced turnover coupled with increased operating costs due to including Relax Finance for a full six months. Exceptional charges of �4.2m, largely non-cash adjustments due to revision of accounting estimates in the valuation of work in progress, result in an overall loss for the period of �6.8m (6 months to 31 July 2008 loss �1.7m). The basic loss per share was 22.27p (6 months to 31 July 2008: 7.16p). Net debt, consisting of bank loans and overdrafts less cash and cash equivalents, at 30 June 2009 was �4.1m (31 July 2008: �3.3m). Senior Management Changes Ken Gaskell was appointed as Chief Executive on 20 July 2009, taking over from Paul Carter who has stepped down to pursue other interests. On 11 August 2009 the group announced that Trevor Moore, the Finance Director had left the group and John Simms had been appointed as Acting Finance Director. Strategic Review Following his appointment, the new Chief Executive Officer, Ken Gaskell, initiated a detailed review of the group's operations in order to define a strategy to establish operational improvements, return the group to profitability and for future growth. The Chief Executive Officer has now concluded this strategic review which has been adopted by the Board. The key conclusion was that the Group has suffered historically, principally from: * paying premium prices for acquisitions * over-manning and an excessive cost base due to delays in integrating the acquired businesses and in reacting to market changes * poor business and management discipline A detailed financial review has also been undertaken, including a review of accounting policies. This has led to a change in accounting policy for the treatment of Intangible Assets and a review of accounting estimates, in particular for the calculation of work in progress ('WIP'). Intangible assets have been reduced by �7.7m and WIP by �4.0m. The strategic review has formed the basis of a detailed business turnaround plan, the first part of which has concentrated on further reducing the cost base of the group and has now largely been completed. The Group's strategy is to focus on profitable growth opportunities in the rapidly growing debt management and remortgage markets. However the issues noted above have left the Group in a heavily indebted position, and further funding is required to pay down a backlog of creditors, reduce debt and to provide the working capital investment required to grow revenues in order to return the Group to profitability. Funding process The Group is reliant on the existing and extended support of its bankers and creditors. As has been previously announced, banking facilities have been closely monitored. It is expected that the change in accounting policy will have an effect on the formal banking covenants going forward. The Group's bankers have provided financial support and continue to do so however, the Group requires a capital injection to reduce debt and provide working capital to grow the business. The Group is at an advanced stage in negotiations to raise further funds and the future of the Group is dependent upon a successful conclusion to the discussions with its lenders and the capital injection. Until these matters are resolved there remains fundamental uncertainty over the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. The interim financial information does not include any adjustments that might arise if the Group were not to be a going concern. Operating Review * IVAs and Debt Management * revenues in this segment were down 30% compared to the prior year, largely as a result of more appropriate application of the accounting policy covering revenue recognition. The revision of the accounting estimates used in evaluating work in progress has distorted the comparison of the revenues and has resulted in an exceptional charge in the six months to 30 June 2009 which coupled with the over-manning in the debt management businesses has resulted in a segment loss of �5.0m for the period. * the cost base of this segment has been reduced significantly during the period and since 30 June 2009. The administration of the Scottish trust deeds has been transferred from the Aberdeen office to the IVA administration department in Chesterfield which itself has been streamlined and headcount has been reduced overall from 123 staff at December 2008 to 55 staff at August 2009. * Secured Lending and Remortgages * revenues have fallen to �0.3m in the period from �2.1m in the previous period due to the collapse of the secured lending market at the end of 2008 * following the closure of the Doncaster office at the end of 2008, the headcount has been further reduced by 18 staff to 26 staff * The brokerage operation has been refocused into the remortgage and the related life insurance market, however the segment result was a loss of �1.7m due to the revenue reduction and delays in reducing the cost base Outlook The Group's cost base has been reduced significantly over the last nine months. Although headcount has halved since the final quarter of 2008, management are confident that improved efficiencies in operational processes give the Group more than adequate capacity to take full advantage of favourable trading conditions in the debt management sector. The secured lending staff are now fully trained and experienced in the remortgage market which is showing very positive signs of recovery. We expect this will enable revenue growth in that segment. The Group remains optimistic that the restructured business is capable of delivering well above market growth rates, although this is subject to a successful fund raising to stabilise the group's financial position.

FUNDAMENTAL UNCERTAINTY The Group is reliant on the existing and extended support of its bankers and creditors. The directors are currently in negotiations regarding proposals for re-financing the Group. These negotiations are progressing in a positive manner however there is no guarantee that they will lead to a successful re-financing and there is therefore fundamental uncertainty in respect of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. The interim financial information does not include any adjustments that might arise if the Group were not to be a going concern. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION The interim financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2009 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting', as adopted by the European Union. The interim financial report is unaudited and has not been reviewed by the auditors. The financial information does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The company's accounting reference date was changed to 31 December from 31 July during 2008 and the comparative figures in this report are shown for the six month period to 31 July 2008 and for the five month period to 31 December 2008. The comparative figures for the period ended 31 December 2008 have been extracted from the Group's financial statements, on which the auditors gave an unqualified opinion, were approved by the Board on 4 June 2009 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The comparative figures have been restated to include the effects of the change in accounting policy and the correction of prior period errors described in notes 4 and 5 below. The restatements have not been audited. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies that have been applied in the preparation of the Interim Financial Statements are the same as will be applied in the preparation of the forthcoming annual financial statements and are the same as were applied in the preparation of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2008 other than as set out in note 4 below. 4. ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGE The directors have reviewed the accounting policy applied by the Group in regard to Intangible Assets - Databases. The Group acquires data on potential customers by purchase of data from specialist lead providers and by the capture of data using the various internet websites operated by the Group. This data is used by the selling and customer service teams to contact potential customers and market the Group's products. The data is retained but is not updated as a matter of course. In previous accounting periods the lead data purchase costs and data capture costs have been capitalised as an intangible fixed asset. In carrying out their review the directors have taken into account that the Group has no exclusivity arrangements or any rights to protect access by others to the customers and therefore has little control over any future economic benefits from this data. The Group does not sell on any of the data. The directors have concluded that the previously applied accounting policy is not appropriate and that lead data purchase and data capture costs should be expensed as incurred. The effects of this change in accounting policy have been applied retrospectively and the effects on the comparative information are shown below: Five months ended Six months ended 31 December 2008 31 July 2008 �'000 �'000 (Decrease) in revenue (1,888) (2,390) (Increase) in direct costs (1,782) (330) Decrease in income tax expense - 404 (Decrease) in profit (3,670) (2,316) As at As at As at 31 December 2008 31 July 2008 31 January 2008 �'000 �'000 �'000 (Decrease) in intangible (7,696) (4,608) (900) assets Increase in goodwill 988 988 - (Decrease) in trade and other (582) - - receivables Decrease in corporate income 404 404 - tax payable (Decrease) in equity (6,886) (3,216) (900) 5. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE AND PRIOR PERIOD ERRORS Revenue from services rendered is recognised in the income statement in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction at the balance sheet date. The revenue work in progress ('WIP') is included under trade receivables. The basis of valuing the revenue WIP including the phasing of work carried out over the life cycle of each product has been reviewed, taking into account the recoverability of the WIP from future revenues, in particular with regard to Trust Deeds where actual time costs are booked to cases for recovery on client fund distributions, and for Debt Management Plans where there is no formal end date and the ongoing monthly fees are relatively low. The outcome of the review has resulted in a change in accounting estimates which has reduced the carrying value of revenue WIP by �4,046,000 which amount has been included as an exceptional charge in the income statement for the current period. The valuation of the WIP included in the comparative periods has been reviewed and it has been found that the accounting policy had not been correctly applied in two respects. Firstly some elements of the WIP have been found to include amounts equivalent to output VAT and secondly some WIP had been included for transactions in the sales pipeline but not completed at 31 December 2008. Revenue in the income statement should not include VAT and revenue should only be recognised when the sale transaction has completed. These prior period errors have been corrected by retrospective restatement of the comparative amounts and the effects are shown below: Five months ended Six months ended 31 December 2008 31 July 2008 �'000 �'000 (Decrease) in revenue (611) (319) (Decrease) in profit (611) (319) As at As at As at 31 December 2008 31 July 2008 31 January 2008 �'000 �'000 �'000 (Decrease) in trade (1,111) (500) (181) receivables (Decrease) in equity (1,111) (500) (181) 6. SEGMENTAL REPORTING The Group has adopted IFRS 8 Operating Segments, which requires segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. Set out below are highlights of segmental performance based on IFRS 8 with full disclosure to be included at year end. Revenue and profit before tax are attributable to the Group's provision of a range of financial solutions including Individual Voluntary Arrangements, Scottish Trust Deeds, Debt Management Plans and Secured Loans or Second Mortgages, to over-indebted individuals. All revenue originated in the UK.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS All inter group transactions between Group enterprises have been eliminated on consolidation. During the period, the Group engaged Olivine Partners LLP and Olivine Capital Partners Limited of which Stuart Cumberland is a Member and Director respectively to undertake corporate finance and tax advisory services. Fees payable totalled �110,729 in the six month period to 30 June 2009, for professional services provided as a Director and for strategic tax advice. A total of �52,478 was outstanding as at 30 June 2009. The Company continues to honour a lease agreement with Paul Carter, the former Chief Executive Officer, for the provision of four separate office buildings at Gisborne Close, Ireland Business Park, Staveley, Chesterfield S43 3JT of which Paul Carter is the landlord. During the period the Company incurred rent and service charges in respect of the premises totalling �200,000. As at 30 June 2009 a total of �114,185 was due to Paul Carter. As part of the acquisition of Relax Finance Limited, the Company issued �300,000 in the form of unsecured loan notes which bear interest on the amount outstanding at the Barclays Bank base rate, redeemable in 20 equal monthly instalments of �15,000 each, beginning in January 2009. Ian Guy and Carl Kroger received �153,000 and �57,000 loan notes respectively. During the period no interest was paid to Ian and Carl respectively and at the period end �145,350 and �45,259 was outstanding on the loan notes. Included within creditors due within one year at 30 June 2009, is an amount of �130,000 due to Ian Guy, in respect of a loan made to Relax Group PLC on 30 April 2009. As at 30 June 2009 the Company's subsidiary undertaking, Relax Finance Limited, owed Ian Guy �24,244 in respect of loans made to the Company. 10.

17-09-09	Relax Group PLC - Update on strategic review	RNS
RNS Number : 2582Z Relax Group PLC 17 September 2009 17 September 2009 Relax Group plc ("Relax Group" or the "Group") Update on strategic review On 11 August 2009 the Group announced that the new management team led by Ken Gaskell was undertaking a strategic and financial review of the business and wider management structure. A lack of financial discipline, forward planning and aggressive accounting practices over the last three years coupled with delays in responding to market changes and over manning has left the Group in a heavily indebted position with a large backlog of creditors and a legacy of ongoing contractual lease commitments. Significant cost cutting measures have been taken and the Group is now in a position to grow the business back to profitability. This cannot be done, however, without a resolution of the Group's financial position. Further funding is required and the company is looking at equity fundraising options and is in discussion with its lenders. The Group is due to report its interim results for the six months ending 30 June 2009 on 30 September. These results will show a substantial loss and include significant write downs in relation to intangible and other assets. The results may also require a restatement of the reported figures for the five months ended 31 December 2008. The Group remains optimistic that the restructured business is capable of delivering well above market growth rates, subject to working capital support.
