ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
FY2011 Full Year Results Announcement
==> picture [107 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
Photon Group Limited (ASX:PGA) today announced its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2011.
Highlights:
-
Normalised earnings: Based on unaudited preliminary accounts for the 12 months to 30 June 2011, Net Revenue was down 4.8% and EBITDA was down 24.9% from the prior corresponding period, after removing the contribution of businesses sold during the year.
-
Reduction of debt: Total unconditional cash liabilities were reduced by 68 per cent, from approximately $450 million at 30 June 2010 to $146 million at 30 June 2011. Raised $76 million from asset sales at an average multiple of 9 times run-rate EBITDA.
-
Restructure of the portfolio: Following the operational restructure, more than 85 per cent of earnings coming from business units with EBITDA of more than $3 million, and the number of business units reduced from 45 to 22.
-
Improved management and operational improvements: Key changes were made across the company to bring in stronger management to improve performance. In many cases, new leadership teams are in the early days of a process of operational improvement.
Photon CEO Jeremy Philips said: “Significant progress was made in cleaning up some major issues at Photon in fiscal 2011. The company reduced debt more quickly than originally anticipated, implemented a more streamlined strategy based on a restructured portfolio, and improved the quality of management in key areas.
“These changes are yet to fully flow through to the operating results of all business units, however, we are confident the steps being taken are necessary and are creating a solid foundation for rebuilding the company.”

Notes:
-
The businesses sold in December 2010 contributed $16.1 million of Net Revenue and $3.9 million of EBITDA in 1H2011. In FY2010 these businesses contributed $34.5 million of Net Revenue and $9.3 million of EBITDA.
-
FY2010 EBITDA normalised for significant items impacting EBITDA of $28.4 million.
-
The non-cash impact of equity incentives was positive in FY2011 due to the write-back and reduction of costs associated with unvested options that have expired. Net equity incentives in FY2011 have had approximately $0.8 million positive impact, versus a $2.3 million expense in FY2010.
-
FY2011 NPAT includes $13.6 million non-cash benefit (net of $7.0 million non-cash deferred tax liability) due to revaluation of deferred consideration liabilities during the period (FY2010: $(5.6) million non-cash expense).
-
FY2011 net loss after tax and significant items was $59.7 million after significant items including noncash losses of $24.0 million on sale of subsidiaries and non-cash impairment charges of $36.0 million against the carrying value of the Search Marketing division (incurred in 1H2011) and $34.3 million against the carrying value of the Australian Agency division due to loss of material client in May 2011. A non-cash tax benefit of $4.6 million was recognised as a result of these losses.
-
Excludes non-cash amortisation of acquired intangibles (FY2011: $4.9 million; FY2010: $8.6 million)
-
Net Revenue and EBITDA in the Australian Agencies division is 7% and 22% down respectively compared with the prior corresponding period. This has been largely driven by lower spending from a small number of large clients compared to the prior period and poor performance by a number of the smaller agencies where steps are being taken to improve performance including upgrading management and restructuring.
-
Net Revenue and EBITDA in the Field Marketing division was in line with the prior corresponding period; and
-
Net Revenue and EBITDA in the International division is 9% and 29% down respectively compared with the prior corresponding period. The main contributor of this variance was the lower results of Naked and The Leading Edge (TLE).
The impact of the stronger Australian dollar during the period has had a $2.2 million negative impact on the EBITDA performance of the Group (mainly in the International division) versus the same period last year.
Key Developments during FY2011
Due to significant efforts across the group, the company has made substantially greater progress during the year than initially expected, particularly in three key areas:
1. Reduction of Debt
-
The company started FY2011 with total cash liabilities of over $450 million. Following the recapitalisation and the subsequent pay-down of debt from operating cash-flows and asset sales, as of June 2011 the company’s total unconditional cash liability is $146 million, comprising $118 million of bank debt under facilities in place until September 2013 and a further $28 million of unconditional cash deferred consideration payments. The deferred consideration payments are due over the next four years, with $15 million of those payments expected to be due in the next six months and the substantial portion of the balance due by first quarter 2012. Further capped cash deferred consideration payments become due upon Photon hitting certain EBITDA and leverage targets as outlined in Photon’s prospectus of 17 August 2010.
-
Over time the company will target a lower level of overall gearing to better suit its natural operating leverage and exposure to the economic cycle.
-
During the year the company completed a number of asset sales on attractive terms. The company remains highly pragmatic and continues to actively explore opportunities to create value. However, given there may not be buyers for the company’s non-core businesses at
==> picture [107 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
acceptable prices, the working assumption continues to be to focus on operational improvements. The company will not sell assets at discounted prices.
2. Operational Restructure
-
At the start of the year, Photon consisted of 45 individual operating units, spread across 14 countries. The majority of these units had less than $3 million in earnings and some had little prospect of ongoing viability, or required significant uneconomic investment to continue.
-
The quality of the portfolio was improved by selling, closing or merging businesses as appropriate. In doing this, many of the most substantial fragilities in the portfolio were removed, making the company easier to manage, more transparent, and more sustainable. The company now has a portfolio of 22 businesses, with more than 85 per cent of earnings coming from businesses with EBITDA of more than $3 million. The company is continuing efforts towards scaling up its businesses to increase performance and sustainability of earnings.
-
Photon sold six businesses during the year for a total of $76 million being an average multiple of approximately nine times run-rate EBITDA.
-
The company also merged over a dozen businesses to build stronger units with deeper capabilities and management and more compelling client offerings. For instance Bellamy Hayden was merged with Naked in Australia, which has created a highly regarded strategic and creative agency, and CPR into the Hotwire Group to expand Hotwire’s product offering to public affairs and take advantage of Hotwire’s international experience.
-
Photon substantially exited from search arbitrage and related businesses through sales and closures. In all, Photon acquired these eclectic operations for $130 million over a number of years. They had no connection with Photon’s other businesses and had minimal value.
3. Management and Operational Improvements.
-
The company made a number of key changes to strengthen management. In many cases, new leadership teams are in the early days of operational improvement. For instance:
-
Matthew Melhuish, previously CEO of BMF, moved into the role of Head of Australia Agencies and is leading greater collaboration amongst the Australian business.
-
Craig Hart, previously President of Retail Agencies Asia at Omnicom, joined to lead the Field and Retail Marketing division, and is building on this strong collection of businesses.
-
Steve Gatfield joined as Chairman of Naked Communications based in New York. Steve’s experience running a substantial global network will be invaluable in the next stage of Naked’s development.
-
The company increased its focus on operational improvements to capture benefits from scale, rather than simply operating as an unrelated collection of independent businesses with common ownership.
-
In addition, we have been re-working incentive arrangements in the company to create a sustainable model.
Ongoing Progress
Many of the company’s operating units achieved great external recognition and new client wins during the year. Photon has several world-class businesses in Australia and internationally which continued their record of delivering outstanding work for clients.
In the international division, two of the company’s most promising global franchises, Naked Communications and TLE, are still well below their peak performance of prior years. Improving their performance is a high priority.
