Patrick DeSouza, Executive Chairman of Water Intelligence, comments:

"The Group's first half of the year performance continues to build on our strongly positive 2012. We have remained focused on increasing profitability and will continue to do so; however, from our much stronger financial position, we have flexibility to invest in further accelerating longer-term growth.  We are especially pleased with the good start to our insurance sales channel which will reinforce royalty growth and provide a vehicle for building a global brand. Demand remains strong for our value proposition and for addressing the important problem of water loss around the world.  Such demand will remain with us for the foreseeable future providing our company with a big opportunity to make a positive difference in the world."

Executive Chairman's Statement

Market demand and political will for preventing water loss remains strong around the world.  As we noted in our Annual Report, approximately 15% of daily water use in the U.S. is lost due to leakage.  Around the world, loss of this precious resource is even greater.  Given our increasing profitability, Water Intelligence is positioned well to grow operations to provide solutions to address the demand for solutions.  Our core business of using world-class technology to pinpoint water leaks - whether residential, commercial or municipal - so that they can be remediated non-invasively is strong and growing; and the deteriorating state of global infrastructure raises our sights on our growth trajectory.  From our existing $60 million service footprint (franchisee sales and corporate sales), we have the opportunity to grow the business by adding more service trucks via our franchisees or corporate locations.  Our service footprint also provides ready sales and distribution points as we push ahead in commercializing our UK products. We are now opening our fifth location in Australia.  We consider international expansion to remain an important driver.

Earlier this year, when we released strong 2012 results, we indicated that we were off to a good start for 2013.  In fact, the first half of the year has turned out to be very good both in absolute terms and in comparison to the first half of 2012:  We achieved growth in revenue and earnings; a stronger balance sheet in terms of cash and net borrowings; and accelerated execution on an insurance adjuster sales channel that reinforces future growth in recurring income.  The bottom-line reflected the success of our operating strategy.  Earnings per share on a fully-diluted basis reached 4 cents for the first half of 2013 compared with 2.8 cents for the first half of 2012; whilst, profit before tax during the first half of surpassed profit before tax for all of 2012.  We believe that we can sustain our growth trajectory in the long-run.

Revenue for the first half of grew 8.5% when compared to the first half of 2012 and crossed $3.54 million.  This growth path tilted upward relative to all of 2012 when we grew at 6%.  Our sales mix remained both services and products. Our strategy has been to become a "one-stop shop" for water leak solutions.  Expressed in a different way: Provide more solutions to the same customer that we have acquired. 

On the services side, royalty income from our non-invasive leak detection franchise business continued to grow steadily at 5% during the first half of compared to the first half of 2012 and reached $2.39 million for the period.  Such royalty income plus sales from our corporate-run locations imply a growing system-wide footprint of approximately $60 million in sales to customers across our entire franchise business.  With the addition of our insurance adjuster sales channel, we can expand this base of existing business and fill-in coverage across the United States and, ultimately, step-by-step, internationally.  On the product side, we were pleased to introduce our Leakfinder product to our franchisees to reinforce our competitive edge.  Its sales in the U.S. provide a balance to the sales of products in the UK.

Operating profits for the first half of 2013 reached $713,000 which represented growth of 24% over that achieved for the first half of 2012.  Profit before tax for the first half of 2013 reached $615,000 which represented growth of 35% over that achieved during the first half of 2012.  Notably, our level of profit before tax for the first half of 2013 exceeded the $531,000 that achieved for the entire of 2012. 

During the second half of the year and beyond, we plan to build on these results and continue to invest in our competitive strategy. As noted above, our American Leak brand is a valuable asset in that many environmental or sustainable companies have neither an existing installed base of customers to build upon nor current profitability.  We have three operating priorities that take advantage of this reality and we will deploy some of our increased profits to accelerate our strategic goal of becoming a global brand.

First, we plan to drive the growth of our franchise business through the continued development of an insurance adjuster sales channel.  American Leak is the only nationwide brand for non-invasive leak detection and, as a result, is attractive to insurance customers that need to pinpoint water leaks in order to address residential and commercial claims of water damage anywhere in the U.S.  We have added personnel to execute this strategy and will continue to invest in this area given that we have already seen results in terms of added revenue and earnings.  In keeping with our aspiration to become a global brand, it should be noted that similar insurance dynamics occur around the world.

Second, after we reinforce growth in our franchise business and increase the value of our franchisees' operations, we plan to invest some additional resources in new franchise sales to further expand our footprint.  We also plan to work with our franchisees to put more "trucks on the road" to expand our $60 million system-wide sales footprint both in the U.S. and abroad, particularly Australia and Canada.

Third, we plan to continue with the development of our product business both in the US and the UK.  As noted, we are pleased with our U.S. Leakfinder  sales in 2013. With our installed franchise system as a source of internal sales or a source of sales and distribution to third parties, there are on-going synergies with our product business.  To be sure, our UK products, especially Domestic Reporter, have been subject to a longer sales cycle than anticipated with UK water utilities. However, the utilities continue to test our Domestic Reporter and have gathered positive feedback from end-user customers. We believe in our UK products and their potential contribution to strong upside growth in the UK, EU and, ultimately, the US as we tap into our broad customer footprint in the U.S.  Given that we have made our investment in Domestic Reporter, there is no trade-off with our other growth plans.

Our strong organic growth in earnings provides some of the working capital needed over time to achieve an exciting global brand.  We have reduced our bank debt on schedule.  Borrowings have been reduced to $2.54 million at June 30, 2013 from $3.06 million at June 30, 2012.  Meanwhile, cash on the balance sheet has increased to $770,000 at June 30, 2013 from $365,000 at June 30, 2012.  As indicated in our annual report, our creditworthiness provides us an opportunity to refinance our bank credit agreement at attractive rates given the current financial environment.  Such refinancing will free up additional working capital.

We are still very much excited about the opportunities ahead to create a global brand. Our long-term macro-view with respect to the importance of water enables us to have confidence in building shareholder value irrespective of the economics affecting other industrial sectors.

Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Information

for the six months ended 30 June 2013

1   General information

The Group is a leading provider of water monitoring products, leak detection equipment and remediation services. The Group's strategy is to focus on providing a critical mass of water management products and services and to be a "one-stop" shop for leak alerts, precision, non-invasive leak detection and remediation.

The Company is a public limited company domiciled in the United Kingdom and incorporated under registered number 03923150 in England and Wales. The Company's registered office is Hexagon Business Centre, Hexagon House, Station Lane, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX28 4BN.

2   Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards

No new IFRS standards, amendments or interpretations became effective in the six months to 30 June 2013 which had a material effect on this interim consolidated financial information.

3   Significant accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

This interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2013 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting'. This interim consolidated financial information is not the group's statutory financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified, did not include references to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis of matter without qualifying their report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2013 is unaudited. In the opinion of the Directors, the interim consolidated financial information presents fairly the financial position, and results from operations and cash flows for the period. Comparative numbers for the six months ended 30 June 2012 are unaudited.

This interim consolidated financial information is presented in US Dollars ($), rounded to the nearest dollar.

Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.

Foreign currencies

(i) Functional and presentational currency

Items included in this interim consolidated financial information are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates ("the functional currency") which is considered by the Directors to be the Pounds Sterling (£) for the Parent Company and US Dollars ($) for American Leak Detection Holding Corp. This interim consolidated financial information has been presented in US Dollars which represents the dominant economic environment in which the Group operates and is considered to be the functional currency of the group. The effective exchange rate at 30 June 2013 was £1 = US$1.52084 (30 June 2012: £1 = US$ 1.57095).

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of interim consolidated financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, the resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed in the relevant notes.

In preparing this interim consolidated financial information, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012.

4   Prior year adjustment

On 29 July 2010 the controlling interest in the parent Company was exchanged for 91.57% of the issued share capital of ALDHC a Company registered in the United States of America, under the rules of a reverse acquisition and prescribed by IFRS 3 Business Combinations. On 27 August 2010 the Company acquired the remaining issued share capital of ALDHC as part of the same transaction.

Under IFRS3, and for accounting purposes, the subsidiary ALDHC (the legal parent) has been deemed to have acquired the parent, Water Intelligence plc (formerly Qonnectis plc). The net assets of Water Intelligence plc have been recognised at their pre-acquisition carrying amounts and the goodwill arising has been recognised.

5   Revenues

In the opinion of the Directors, the operations of the Group currently comprise four operating segments, being the franchises, corporate owned stores and otheractivities including product and equipment sales and head office costs.

The Group mainly operates in the US, with operations in the UK and certain other countries. In the six months to 30 June 2013, 97% of its revenue came from the US based operations, the remaining 3% of its revenue came from either UK or overseas based operations.

No single customer accounts for more than 10% of the Group's total external revenue.

Segment information

The Group adopted IFRS 8 Operating Segments with effect from 1 July 2008. IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group.

Information reported to the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (being the Executive Chairman), for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of division performance is separated into three segments

-       Franchisor royalties

-       Corporate-operated stores

-       Other activities including product and equipment sales
