• Increase in revenue and operating profit is largely due to the benefit of a full six months trading for acquisitions such as Capital SMART and ACM Parts.
-
Normalisations for the period were $9.4m – this relates to the paint supplier termination fee. The supplier termination fee was incurred as a result of Capital SMART’s paint transition to BASF, which is substantially complete.
-
Normalised EBITDAI includes the contribution from the disposed businesses (ACAD and Fully Equipped for H1) but does not include the accounting gain on disposal.
-
“Historical” normalisations significantly reduced.

Highlights and Trading Performance
-
Increase in revenue and EBITDAI is largely due to the benefit of a full six months trading for acquisitions such as Capital SMART and the additional 9 sites acquired in the prior half-year (HY 2020).
-
Heavy Motor continues to be a strong contributor to AMA Panel. Heavy Motor contributed 15% of AMA Panel’s EBITDA (compared to 10% of AMA Panel’s EBITDA in prior comparative period).
-
Capital SMART’s paint and consumables integration is substantially complete. Capital SMART is well positioned to achieve its synergy targets in H2 (as volumes fully return to pre COVID-19 levels).
-
AMA Panel’s revised terms from insurer customers have provided profitability improvement.
-
Vehicle Panel Repairs received circa $28 million in Government wage subsidies. These subsidies allowed us to support our workforce through this difficult trading period and have enabled the Group to make a faster recovery once community movement restrictions were eased.

Highlights and Trading Performance
-
The above results are for continuing operations only (ACM Parts and FluidDrive). Discontinued operations (ACAD and Fully Equipped group of businesses) contributed $7.0 million Normalised EBITDAI at 17% Normalised EBITDAI margin.
-
Increase in revenue is largely due to the benefit of a full six months trading for ACM Parts. The revenue and other income set out above is in relation to external customers only. However, a focus for ACM Parts in the past 12 months has been to increase sales into the Vehicle Panel Repairs Division, benefiting the bottom-line in that division.
-
ACM Parts expanded into Western Australia through the acquisition of Perth Brake Parts on 30 October 2020.
-
ACM Parts has been profitable during the period, including accounting for warehousing of consumables (previously funded by AMA Panel).
-
Now that ACAD and Fully Equipped have been sold, the key areas of focus in H2 2021 are to explore further synergies between ACM Parts and FluidDrive, and identify incremental revenue opportunities for both businesses.
