Chief Executive's Review
Results
I am delighted to announce our interim results for the six
months ended 31 March 2018, during which we continued to deliver
growth in revenues and profit.
Revenue for the period was GBP60.5m, an increase of GBP5.0m or
9.1% (2017: GBP55.5m). Revenue from our largest brand, Patisserie
Valerie, was up GBP5.4m or 13.2% to GBP45.8m (2017: GBP40.4m). Due
to a store closure in the prior year, revenue from our other brands
was down GBP0.3m or 2.6% to GBP14.7m (2017: GBP15.1m).
EBITDA for the period was GBP13.6m, an increase of GBP1.4m or
11.6% (2017: GBP12.2m) and pre-tax profit was GBP11.1m, an increase
of GBP1.4m or 14.2% (2017: GBP9.7m).
Basic earnings per share were 8.98 pence per share (2017: 7.95
pence per share) and diluted earnings per share were 8.92 pence per
share (2017: 7.88 pence per share), an increase of 13.0% and 13.2%
respectively.
The period started well with a good build up to Christmas with
our new festive range, including the limited edition Reindeer
slice, selling well. Sales were slightly hampered by the adverse
weather conditions. However thanks to our vertically integrated
supply chain and the flexibility of our workforce we were able to
limit the impact on profit. We finished the period strongly with a
record Mother's Day weekend and a good lead up to Easter.
The group achieved strong sales from our website of GBP2.6m in
the period, up GBP1.0m or 62.5% (2017: GBP1.6m). This was driven by
our social media strategy and the relaunch of our website in
February 2018, which provides customers with an enhanced user
experience, including video imaging of our products, tablet/mobile
compatibility and a streamlined checkout process. The revamped
website is proving successful.
We established a new product development team towards the end of
the prior year and are currently trialling a number of initiatives
in selected stores including a new menu, a new savoury range and in
store bake-off of morning goods. In January we also launched Slice
of the Month which is proving popular. All of these new product
initiatives are helping to drive incremental sales.
Our partnership with Sainsbury's continues. We have a supply
only agreement for a limited Patisserie Valerie range to be sold at
Patisserie Valerie branded counters within Sainsbury's stores. We
currently have counters in 31 Sainsbury's stores in addition to 14
click and collect locations. We will shortly be entering a further
10 Sainsbury's stores.
We continue to work hard to control our gross profit margin
which remained at 77.8% (2017: 78.0%). We benefitted in the period
from a number of contract renegotiations, and in some cases we
switched suppliers to mitigate inflationary pressures, along with
production efficiencies from investment in our bakeries in the
prior year. We remain proactive in managing our cost base and in
some cases we have seen a reduction in some of our core ingredient
prices.
Labour inflation now has the biggest impact on profit with
National Minimum Wage, National Living Wage and Apprenticeship Levy
costing an additional GBP0.3m in the period. Ongoing labour
inflation is built into our budgets and is being absorbed as the
group continues to grow. Staff retention and wellbeing is a key
area of strategic focus for us and we are investing in training,
rewards schemes and career planning for our employees.
Rent and rates reviews added GBP0.2m of cost in the period and
we have now had rent reviews at all of our key sites. We also made
a number of smaller savings on various non-direct spends which had
a cumulative positive impact of GBP0.4m.
Estate Development
We have successfully opened 10 new stores to date and are on
track to deliver the Board's annual target of 20 new openings.
The openings included five new geographical locations at
Basingstoke, Wigan, Cwmbran, Chesterfield and Carlisle. In addition
we opened new stores in Glasgow, Liverpool, Cardiff, Milton Keynes
and Sutton Coldfield.
The new store in Glasgow is our 13(th) store in Scotland and the
addition of stores in Cwmbran and Cardiff takes the number of
stores in Wales to four.
Our new openings are performing in line with management's
expectations.
We currently have builders on site in three locations;
Lancaster, Battersea and Belfast Forestside. These stores are
expected to be open by the end of May 2018. The Belfast Forestside
opening will be our fifth store in Ireland and will be serviced
from our bakery in Belfast. All of the Irish stores continue to
perform strongly and provide management with growing confidence in
the prospects for the region.
In the period we closed two stores following lease expiries and
we exited one concession arrangement.
All of our new openings are profitable from the first week of
trading and are all funded from operating cash flows. We have an
exciting pipeline which is well developed.
We remain confident in our ability to grow our estate and
continue to believe that there is a large addressable market in the
UK and Ireland.
Cash flow & Financing
In the period we generated operating cash flows of GBP14.7m, up
GBP2.9m or 24.9% (2017: GBP11.7m). We paid GBP2.8m in corporation
tax and spent GBP5.0m in capex on our estate leaving free cash
flows of GBP6.8m, up GBP1.9m or 40.0% (2017: GBP4.9m). We returned
GBP2.4m to shareholders in dividend payments and generated GBP2.9m
of proceeds from the exercise of employee share options resulting
in net cash at the end of the period of GBP28.8m (2017:
GBP16.2m).
Our experienced Estates team continues to deliver high quality
new stores at an average expenditure of GBP0.25m per site, which
continue to deliver payback in less than 24 months.
The final dividend for the year ended 30 September 2017 of 2.4
pence per share or GBP2.4m in total was paid to shareholders in the
period. The Group remains cash generative and the Board has
declared an interim dividend for this financial year of 1.44 pence
per share representing a 20% increase year on year. The interim
dividend will be paid on 13 July 2018 to shareholders on the
register at the close of business on 1 June 2018.
Our business model converts profit to cash efficiently and
delivers consistent and predictable cash flows. The Group continues
to be funded from operating cash flows and reserves, and with a
cash balance of GBP28.8m at the period end, is well positioned to
make strategic acquisitions should appropriate opportunities
arise.
Current trading and outlook
Trading after the period end is in line with management's
expectations. We have just launched our new summer menu which
includes a new range of ice creams and iced lattes. Three new
stores are due to open shortly and with a well-developed new store
pipeline I am confident of a good second half to the year.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHED 31 MARCH 2018
1. General information
Patisserie Holdings plc (the 'Company') and its subsidiaries
(collectively the 'Group') operate in the casual dining sector
offering cakes, pastries, snacks, meals and hot and cold drinks
across the UK.
The Company is a public limited company which is listed on the
AIM of the London Stock Exchange and incorporated and domiciled in
England and Wales. The registered office of the Company is 146 -
156 Sarehole Road, Birmingham, B28 8DT. This document along with
copies of the Annual Report and Accounts may be obtained from the
registered office or via the Investor section of the Company's
website at www. patisserie-valerie.co.uk
2. Basis of preparation
The condensed financial statements have been prepared using
accounting policies consistent with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Financial Reporting
Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations as endorsed by
the European Union and in accordance with IAS34 - "Interim
Financial Reporting". The same accounting policies, presentation
and methods of computation have been followed in the preparation of
these results as were applied in the Group's latest annual audited
financial statements.
The financial information for the year ended 30 September 2017
does not constitute the full statutory accounts for that period.
The Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2017 have been filed
with the Registrar of Companies. The Independent Auditor's Report
on the Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2017 was
unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of
emphasis, and did not contain a statement under 498(2) or 498(3) of
the Companies Act 2006.
The condensed financial statements have been prepared under the
historical cost convention and financial information is presented
in sterling and has been rounded to the nearest thousand (GBP'000)
unless otherwise stated.
3. Segmental information
Management has determined the operating segments based on the
reports reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM")
comprising the Board of Directors. During the six month period to
31 March 2018, there have been no changes from prior periods in the
measurement methods used to determine operating segments and
reported segment profit or loss.
The segmental information is split on the basis of those same
profit centres, however, management report only the contents of the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income and therefore no
balance sheet information is provided on a segmental basis in the
following tables.
