The Group’s net profit after tax has increased to $360,000 for the six months ended 31 December 2016 compared to $36,000 in 2015. This was due to improved strategies and reductions to costs throughout the business. The Group is confident that as it continues to invest in growth opportunities and improve its commitment to engaging further with customers, financial results will continue to improve in the second half of the year. Growth in the scaffolding division is expected to continue while the consumer division, although pursuing new opportunities, will be weaker without the sales to the Masters hardware chain following its closure (sales ceased August 2016) and challenges to growth in the outdoor storage business.

The Group's revenue from continuing operations for the half-year ended 31 December 2016 was $14,344,000 (2015: $15,036,000), a decrease of 4.6% compared with the prior year. The decline coming from the Consumer division which was 24.2% lower in revenue primarily as a result of the closure of the Masters hardware chain (sales ceased Aug 2016) and a large one off sale in the prior year's first half. The scaffold division continues to grow its revenue having increased of 7.7% between the periods.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (continued)

Review of Operations and Financial Results (continued)

The Group’s net profit after tax was $360,000 (2015: $36,000). The improved performance for the Group was in spite of the lower revenue as the business has continued to make improvements and reduce costs. The consolidated EBITDA increased from $1,072K for the six months ended 31 December 2015 to $1,149K for the six months ended 31 December 2016, which is an increase of 7.2%.

For the comparative 6 months, gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) declined from 46.6% in 2015 to 41.0% in 2016. The decrease being as a result of increased costs from overseas purchasing and selective lower sales prices to stimulate growth in the consumer division. The Group's depreciation & amortisation expense has decreased from $519K to $378K. This was largely a result of an impairment charge in the prior year lowering the depreciation base.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,412,000 for the six months ended 31 December 2016, compared to $555,000 for the six months ended 31 December 2015 enabling the business to increase its repayment of borrowings and purchases of plant & equipment.

The Group will continue with its engagement with customers to seek ways that will further add value to their business as well as to invest in growth opportunities. The Group is confident that these initiatives should be able to deliver improved financial results for the remainder of the financial year and into the future.

Review of Operations

(i) Consumer Products - Paint Applications and Outdoor Storage Solutions

Revenue for the consumer division decreased by 24.2% compared with the prior period. The closure of Masters during the first half of the year was extremely disappointing having positioned ourselves as the largest supplier within their paint accessories department. With the announcement of the potential closure of Masters and the Home Timber & Hardware chain occurring back in January 2016, this gave Oldfields time to minimise the impact as well as to initiate other plans to help mitigate the impact of the loss in revenue. The division is working hard to rejuvenate the offer with improved packaging, customer engagement and innovation.

Sales within the outdoor storage segment continue to be challenging. The segment is not core thereby limiting the allocation of investment that would otherwise be needed to create profitable growth of shed sales.

(ii) Scaffolding Division

For the six months ended 31 December 2016 the scaffold division revenues have increased by 7.7% compared to the previous period. The Australian building industry continues to expand however this is primarily in the eastern states as there is a clear softening in South & Western Australia. To ensure all branches continue to grow, the scaffold division has worked hard to increase the communication between state managers. This has assisted in identifying market opportunities as well as to improve the utilisation rates of the scaffold hire fleet.

International scaffold sales have increased compared with the prior year having benefited from working more closely with key accounts. This approach will continue and has resulted in the current investigation of an expanded range. The scaffold manufacturing operations in China continues to support the business well and is working on initiatives to lower its costs and decrease delivery times on its supply to customers.

Financial Position

The net assets of the Group have increased by $277,000 from $3,963,000 at 30 June 2016 to $4,240,000 at 31 December 2016.

A key area of focus for the second half of 2017 will be to concentrate on profitable growth opportunities to further improve the net asset position of the Group.

Outlook

Revenue growth that is both profitable and sustainable is a major focus of the management team for the second half of the financial year. By engaging with our customers to understanding their needs, the business is confident that it can respond to changes in the market, increase its importance to customers, and continue to deliver improved profitability.

Dividends

Since the start of the financial year, no dividends have been paid or declared by Oldfields Holdings Limited.

Note 3 Fair Value Measurements

The Group measures and recognises the following assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis after initial recognition: - Derivative financial instruments

The Group does not subsequently measure any liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

(a) Fair value hierarchy

AASB 13 requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement can be categorised into as follows:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Measurements based on quoted prices Measurements based on inputs other than quoted Measurements based on unobservable (unadjusted) in active markets for identical prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the inputs for the asset or liability. assets or liabilities that the entity can access at asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. the measurement date.

The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. If all significant inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3.

  • If the DSLN is repaid or partially repaid after the first 5 years, the amount of interest paid will be dependent upon the share price of the Company, but capped at 12% p.a.;

  • In the event that the weighted average share price of the Company is the same or below the issue price (10 cents) of the capital raised at the time of the repayment after the first 5 years, the only payment due will be the original debt;

  • The DSLN noteholder will also be entitled to receive a payment to the equivalent value of any dividend payment made by the Group;

  • Entitlement to a dividend-triggered payment will be based on the face value of the DSLN divided by the issue price upon commencement of the facility agreement; and

  • Other normal conditions apply in respect to meeting gearing and interest cover ratios.

Accordingly, the DSLN has been identified as containing two main components: the core debt and a derivative element capturing the capital appreciation payment, interest and dividend-triggered entitlement. The core debt has been discounted by 12% to net present value over the expected term of the DSLN (being 10 years) and is included in non-current borrowings. The assessed value of the derivative takes into account the expected cash flows incorporating the term (10 years) and a discount rate of 12%.

There were no changes during the period in the valuation techniques used by the Group to determine Level 2 fair values.

Due to their short-term natures, the carrying amounts of current receivables, current trade and other payables and current interest bearing liabilities is assumed to approximate their fair value.

Note 4 Segment Information

General Information

Identification of reportable segments

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), being the Board of Directors, in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

The Group is managed primarily on the basis of product category and service offerings as the diversification of the Group's operations inherently have notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.

Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following:

  • The products sold and/or services provided by the segment;

  • The manufacturing process;

  • The type or class of customer for the products or service;

  • The distribution method; and

  • Any external regulatory requirements.

Types of products and services by segment

  • (i) Consumer Products

The consumer products segment manufactures and markets paint brushes, paint rollers, painters tools, garden sheds and outdoor storage systems.

  • (ii) Scaffolding

The scaffolding segment manufactures and markets scaffolding and related equipment. In addition, this segment is engaged in hiring scaffolding related products to the building and construction industry.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Oldfields Holdings Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Oldfields Holdings Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a statement of accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year’s end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal 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 Auditing Standard 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, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Oldfields Holdings Limited, 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 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of Oldfields Holdings Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

BDO East Coast Partnership ABN 83 236 985 726 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee.

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Oldfields Holdings Limited 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 2016 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

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