REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL REVIEW

CPT ’s revenue for the half year ended 31 December 2011 was $20.3 million, a 4% increase on the prior corresponding half year’s revenue of $19.6 million. Australian Revenue decreased 2% to $13.8 million (2010: $14.1m) and international revenue increased 18% to $6.5 million (2010: $5.5m). EBITDA for the half year was $1.0 million (2010: $1.2 million).

CPT’s cash position of $2.3 million was strengthened by $1.4 million compared to the prior corresponding period by the more efficient usage of supplier credit and enhanced treasury management practices.

CPT’s net profit after tax for the half year ended 31 December 2011 was $0.8 million, (2010: $0.6m), benefiting from the recognition of a deferred tax asset in the USA where CPT is now making sustainable profits.

Earnings per share and diluted earnings per share was 2.17 cents per share (2010: 1.66 cents and 1.65 cents respectively).

Based on the first half results CPT Global Limited will pay a fully franked dividend of 1.5 cents per share which is in line with its policy of a high dividend payment ratio on net profit after tax.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Australia

Performance of the Australian operations has remained consistent with prior periods. The growth which has occurred in the Melbourne and Sydney markets (2% and 26% respectively) has been offset by revenue reductions in the Canberra market where a number of client projects have been completed. A series of business development initiatives have been undertaken to replace these projects and a number of opportunities exist to rebuild revenue in the second half of the year.

As in prior years, the Australian business has played a vital role in supporting the growth of the international business by providing staff expertise to North America and Europe.

International

International operations continue to grow as CPT’s value proposition gains further recognition overseas. The opportunity pipeline is strong and several new clients have engaged CPT to assist in the management of their IT infrastructure spend.

During the period CPT completed many small engagements (Phase 1) at Fortune 500 Companies, with three clients committing to the more lucrative Phase 2 projects, where CPT shares in the financial success provided to the client. There are many clients in Europe and North America currently considering the potential to proceed to Phase 2 on a risk / reward basis. We anticipate that a number of these clients will proceed at some stage over the next 12 months, leading to further expansion of the International business. In addition, a number of long term contracts with CPT’s larger International clients have been renewed again.

Although profitable, CPT is still awaiting a more substantial return on the business development investments made over the past few years. The economic slowdown in Europe has delayed many opportunities and CPT has incurred significant cost in attempts to close a number of these prospects.

A substantial investment has been made in the enhancement of CPT’s service centre to support the expected growth in the international business. The company’s capability has been built to achieve scalable productivity as the centre will be able to service many overseas clients simultaneously from Australia using CPT’s proven methodologies.

3

CPT Global Limited & Controlled Entities - Half-Year Report

We believe that CPT’s growth opportunities and ability to deliver in a cost effective manner are strong. Whilst the economic environment has had an impact on the speed in which growth occurs, CPT is well placed to handle the growth when and as it occurs.

OUTLOOK

The Australian operation is solid, with growth opportunities in each of CPT’s geographical markets. The Melbourne market will continue to grow as a number of the company’s tier 2 clients have increased their demand for CPT services, lifting their relationship to a more strategic level. The Sydney presence will also grow as the number of CPT clients continues to build while CPT’s activity in Canberra will increase as new client projects commence.

The International operation is likely to grow at a faster pace given the number and size of the opportunities currently in the pipeline. We plan to expand the International management team early in 2012 to deal with the expected growth.

CPT is positive about the outlook for the second half of the 2012 financial year and our financial position remains sound.

ROUNDING

The amounts contained in this report and in the financial report have been rounded to the nearest $1,000 (where rounding is applicable) under the option available to the company under ASIC Class Order 98/0100. The company is an entity to which the Class Order applies.

AUDITORS DECLARATION

HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE HALF-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT

Basis of Preparation

These general purposes interim financial statements for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2011 have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of CPT Global Limited and its controlled entities (referred to as the Group). As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year within the Group. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2011, together with any public announcements made during the following half-year.

Accounting Policies

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements, except in relation to the matters discussed below.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The critical estimates and judgments are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the June 2011 annual report.

Since the last annual reporting date, there has been no material change of any contingent liabilities or contingent assets.

NOTE 4: BORROWINGS

The economic entity has a financing facility of $1,832,000 provided by its bank on an ongoing basis. The financing facility is secured by a first registered company charge (mortgage debenture) over the carrying value of the total assets of the parent entity. Interest is charged at 1.0% above the reference rate. At the end of the reporting period this facility was not utilised.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CPT GLOBAL LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of CPT Global Limited and controlled entities (“the consolidated entity”) which comprises of the Statement of Financial Position as at 31 December 2011, the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising of a summary of significant accounting policies, other selected explanatory information and the directors’ declaration.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 , and for such control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial report is not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. As the auditor of the consolidated entity, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the half-year financial report of CPT Global Limited and controlled entities is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (i) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (ii) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
