Final results for the year ended 30 June 2017

Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to report that turnover for the year ended 30 June 2017 was £5.7 million (2016: £4.8 million), an increase of 19 percent. The Group incurred an operating loss in the year of £16,000 (2016: £858,000 loss), a loss before taxation for the year of £193,000 (2016: £1,017,000 loss) and a profit after taxation of £179,000 (2016: £753,000 loss). The profit per share was .54p (2016: 2.28p loss).

QM Systems

2016/17 has seen a marked improvement in performance both in revenue and profit generated. Turnover for the year was £4.05 million (2016: £3.42 million) an increase of approximately 17 percent. Operating profit for the year was £42,000 (2016: £348,000 loss). This marks a very significant turnaround in profitability for the year. The increase in profitability was fuelled through further improvements to efficiency which was partly due to changes undertaken in the previous year,  further changes during 2016/17 and through a growth in revenue which was achieved with a slightly lower headcount at 30 June 2017.

A number of key projects have been successfully delivered during the year and we continue to maintain an excellent record for delivery and support with our existing client base. Many of QM System's existing clients are now placing regular additional business. In addition, we have established business with five new clients during the period. Recruitment of a new Business Development Manager in September 2016 has led to a marked increase in monthly quotation activity. This has provided access to a number of new and potential clients across industry sectors that we previously did not cover. These are tending to be for larger contracts which, typically, take longer to be awarded. During the last 12 months the size, scope and value of QM Systems' quotes have significantly increased and most of these projects have still to be awarded.

Interest in our own Manufacturing Execution System has continued to gain momentum and we have added two new clients to the growing client base for this product. This system is unique in its ease of configurability by our end clients and enables QM Systems to offer a complete production line package including manufacturing, assembly, ongoing test and final test which when combined with our own CAA system creates a 'one stop shop' for our clients' production requirements. This approach has considerable flexibility and scalability and this is leading to a lot of interest.

After the political uncertainty of the previous two years. it is reassuring to see a double-digit growth in revenue and a return to a healthy profit during 2016/17. We aim to build on these successes for the current financial year as we drive this dynamic and exciting business forward.

Technology Division

The technology division made an operating loss of £83k (2016: £353k) this includes the corporate costs of the group. Attendance at key industry events, supported by articles in trade media fuelled a unit sales growth for the year which although tempered initially in the UK post Brexit, quickly recovered. With our international marketing strategy also achieving increased interest from new and existing export market, overall performance has been consistent with expectations. Previous sales success has also driven additional revenue growth this year with past clients returning for Servicing, System Upgrades and Accessories. Rejection again of our H2020 phase 2 grant re-application was a considerable disappointment. However, following consultation with our advisers we shall continue re-submitting what we hope will be regarded as improved applications, building on feedback we receive from the assessors.

A concerted R&D effort this year has led to significant reduction in our unit build costs and the development of a new high-end product variant based on our popular e-Safe design. Launched as e-SafePRO at an international utilities event in May 2017, this new system is expected to have a significant impact on future sales growth going forward.

Adien

Adien turned itself around during the year increasing turnover by 10% to £1,364,000 and delivering a profit before tax to the Group of £16,000 (2016: £163,000 loss). With a degree of certainty in the political world this improvement is expected to continue.

The first quarter of the current year has seen good contract wins in Northern Ireland, Scotland and the North of England. The activity levels in Scotland are improving at a significant rate and the medium to long term potential in Northern Ireland is increasing monthly as most major infrastructure projects now have funding in place. Demand for Adien's services in England is relatively steady, however there are now signs of increased activity within certain sectors namely; Transport: airports, highways and rail. In addition, the power generation and distribution and water treatment sectors are growing in demand.

Currently Adien's order book and the value of quotes for contracts still to be awarded indicates that business will continue to develop at a sustainable level.

SUMO

On 13 October 2017, the Company sold it's 28.4 percent joint venture interest in the ordinary share capital of SUMO Limited to me for a consideration of £197,499, being the original cost of the investment, subject to shareholder approval. The consideration will be satisfied in cash. I have agreed to pay the consideration immediately and therefore the payment of £197,499 will be treated as a loan on identical terms to the existing loans due to me. If approved by shareholders, the result will be that the amount outstanding on loans due to me will be reduced by £197,499 and the Group will record a book profit on sale of £143,000.

I have agreed that in the event that SUMO effects a fundraising at a pre-money valuation in excess of £700,000 (equivalent to £2 per SUMO share, being the price I paid) before 30 June 2018, or SUMO effects a sale of the company or an IPO at a price greater than £2 per SUMO share before 13 October 2020, then further consideration of 50 per cent. of the value of such excess will be payable in cash to the Company by me.

The independent directors, Randal MacDonnell and Soumitra Padmanathan, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, Allenby Capital Limited, consider that the terms of the sale of the investment in SUMO, and the loan provided by me, are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders of PipeHawk are concerned.

Financial position

The broadly breakeven result means that the Group continues to be in a net liability position and reliant on my continuing financial support.

My letter of support dated 14 November 2016 was renewed on 30 October 2017 for a further year. Loans, other than those covered by the CULS agreement, are unsecured and accrue interest at an annual rate of Bank of England base rate plus 2.15%.

In addition to the loans I have provided to the Company in previous years, my fellow directors and I have deferred a certain proportion of our fees and the interest due to us until the Company is in a suitably strong position to make the full payments. Further fees and interest amounting to £71,000 were deferred in the year ended 30 June 2017. At 30 June 2017, these deferred fees and interest amounted to approximately £1.6 million in total, all of which have been recognised as a liability in the Company's accounts.

Strategy & Outlook

The PipeHawk Group remains committed to creating sustainable earnings-based growth and focusing on the expansion of its business with forward-looking products and services. PipeHawk acts responsibly towards its shareholders, business partners, employees, society and the environment - in each of its business areas.

PipeHawk is committed to technologies and products that unite the goals of customer value and sustainable development. The year under review has been a massive turnaround year, following the substantial losses in the previous two years, all divisions of the Group are currently performing well and the Directors remain optimistic in their outlook for the Group.

Notes to the Report and Accounts

1.         Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards as adopted by the EU and under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies are set out below.

A number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued but are not yet effective and in some cases, have not yet been adopted by the EU.

The directors do not expect that the adoption of these standards will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group in future periods, except that IFRS 9 will impact both the measurement and disclosures of financial instruments and IFRS 15 may have an impact on revenue recognition and related disclosures. At this point it is not practicable for the directors to provide a reasonable estimate of the effect of IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 as their detailed review of these standards is still ongoing.

In addition, the directors are in the process of considering the potential changes that may occur to the financial statements under IFRS 16 "Leases". This is expected to apply to periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019 and the assessment will be made over the next year and reported in future financial information.

Basis of preparation - Going concern

The directors have reviewed the Group's funding requirements for the next twelve months which show positive anticipated cash flow generation, prior to any repayment of loans from the Executive Chairman. The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the entity has adequate resources to continue in its operational exercises for the foreseeable future.  The directors have furthermore obtained a renewed pledge from GG Watt to provide ongoing financial support for a period of at least twelve months from the approval date of the group statement of financial position. It is on this basis that the directors consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of preparation within these financial statements. A material uncertainty exists regarding the ability of the Group to remain a going concern without the   continuing financial support of the Executive Chairman.           

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Turnover by geographical market
United Kingdom	5,671	4,745
Europe	28	68

	5,702	4,813

The group operates out of one geographical location being the UK. Accordingly, the primary segmental disclosure is based on activity. Per IFRS 8 operating segments are based on internal reports about components of the group, which are regularly reviewed and used by Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") for strategic decision making and resource allocation, in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The Group's reportable operating segments are as follows:

·      Adien - Utility detection and mapping services

·      Technology Division - Development, assembly and sale of GPR equipment

·      QM Systems - Test system solutions

The CODM monitors the operating results of each segment for the purpose of performance assessments and making decisions on resource allocation. Performance is based on external and internal revenue generations and profit before tax, which the CODM believes are the most relevant in evaluating the results relative to other entities in the industry. Segment assets and liabilities are presented inclusive of inter segment balances, as inter-segment pricing.

In utility detection and mapping services one customer accounted for 10% of revenue in 2017 and 11% in 2016.  In development, assembly and sale of GPR equipment one customer accounted for 23% of revenue in 2017 and 10% in 2016.  In automation and test system solutions one customer accounted for 23% of revenue and 15.5% in 2016.

Information regarding each of the operations of each reportable segments is included below, all non-current assets owned by the group are held in the UK.

The Group has tax losses amounting to approximately £2,470,000 (2016: £2,492,000), available for carry forward to set off against future trading profits. No deferred tax assets have been recognised in these financial statements due to the uncertainty regarding future taxable profits.

Potential deferred tax assets not recognised are approximately £490,000 (2016: £490,000)

4.         Profit per share

Group

Basic (pence per share) 2017 - 0.54; 2016 - 2.28 loss per share

This has been calculated on a profit of £179,000 (2016:  £753,000 loss) and the number of shares used was 33,020,515 (2016: 33,020,515) being the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year. 

Diluted (pence per share) 2017 - 0.47; 2016 - 2.28 loss per share

This has been calculated using earnings of £259,000 being the profit for the year plus the interest paid on the convertible loan note (net of 20% tax) of £80,000. (2016: £753,000 loss) and the number of shares used was 55,247,667 (2016: 33,020,515) being the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year of 33,020,515 adjusted for shares deemed to be issued for no consideration relating to options of 2,227,152 and convertible instrument of 20,000,000. In the prior year the potential ordinary shares included in the weighted average number of shares are anti-dilutive and therefore diluted earnings per share is equal to basic earnings per share.
