Interim Statement
The past six months have been like a perverse, real-life Squid
Game. But without the teal tracksuits and ball of cash. Every week
has levelled up some new challenges:
Green light! Government restrictions easing, restaurants and
bars, allowed to re-open.
Red light! Everyone pinged to self-isolate by Track and
Trace.
Green light! Events and exhibitions back on, demand for print and display, improving.
Red light! HGV driver shortages, distribution costs and
wholesale energy prices rising.
Green light! Business, bouncing back strongly.
Red light! Stock shortages and importing shipping containers
costs 10x more than 2019.
Yet we've made progress. We want to thank our teams and our
partners for working through this adversity and continuing to build
the future.
Our interim period started 1(st) April 2021. Cast your mind back
to the Spring and the UK was in another lockdown. In May and June,
some restrictions eased. We all celebrated 'freedom day' on July
19(th) , with the majority of remaining restrictions lifted.
We sell to businesses. We help promote them offline and online.
Displays, exhibitions, printing and signage. Websites, search
engine optimisation and ecommerce. With each tweak of the rules,
more business activity came back. August and September were our
best trading months since November 2019.
Trading Results and Cash
Turnover during the six-month period increased to GBP6.31m
(2020: GBP5.25m). Gross profit improved to GBP3.44m (2020:
GBP2.96m). Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 54.5% (2020:
56.3%). Last year, in the height of The Original Lockdown 1.0,
product sales were hit hard. Higher margin digital services and
subscription fees were more resilient. This year, sales of
displays, printing and signage have rebounded a little. That change
in product mix explains the reduction in percentage margin.
We've talked before about the changes we made to reduce our
overheads. That's been by upgrading equipment, deploying software
and combining two factories into one. With our cost-base now reset,
modest improvements in gross profit have meant that EBITDA (which
is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation)
rose to GBP0.39m (2020: loss of GBP0.13m). Our loss after tax
reduced to GBP0.63m compared with GBP1.17m for the same period last
year.
In the last few announcements we've discussed our goal of
achieving 10-15% EBITDA in the mid-term. We're encouraged that
trading in August and September were both within that range. That
coincided with restrictions being fully removed.
Our overheads were GBP3.04m compared to GBP3.08m in the same
period last year. Within overheads, staff costs were GBP1.91m
(2020: GBP1.94m). The comparative period benefited from the
Government's Job Retention Scheme. This year that contributed
GBP0.14m (2020: GBP0.49m) of support.
At 30 September 2021, the Company had cash of GBP2.67m (2020:
GBP3.68m) and debt of GBP7.16m (2020: GBP7.35m). Our operating
activities generated GBP0.43m of cash (2020: GBP0.33m).
Capital expenditure was GBP0.34m (2020: GBP0.37m). The total
includes GBP0.31m (2020: GBP0.32m) invested in the ongoing
development of our platform which underpins our operations and is
licensed to our partners.
Trading Review
We think of our Group as two business units: our
software-as-a-service platforms and our company stores (we call
this business unit Nettl Systems); and our manufacturing hub (it's
based in Manchester and we call it Works Manchester). Last time we
said we'd provide more transparency on how those two business units
performed.
Nettl Systems
We licence our software and brands to graphic professionals.
Designers, printers, signmakers, marketing agencies and other
graphic professionals use our marketing tools, workflow management
system and supply chain to deliver better service to their local
clients. We own five Nettl company stores. We use these to refine
new initiatives and develop best practice. We have hundreds of
partners who licence our systems.
Partners pay us a monthly subscription (from GBP300 to
c.GBP1,000) which gives them access to our systems, training and
support. They're able to buy factory-direct print and display to
resell to clients along with centralised digital marketing services
like SEO, Social Media and Paid Search. We call some of them 'brand
partners' because they use the Nettl or printing.com brand in
conjunction with their own. They're our exclusive partner in their
neighbourhood. We licence printing.com and Nettl directly in the UK
and Ireland. We also licence Nettl in Belgium, France, the
Netherlands and in the USA. In Australia and New Zealand, we have a
master licence agreement. We've supported partners through
difficult trading conditions. Those that have adapted to the new
way of working have weathered the storm. Some who've not been able
to make the digital leap, have left the network. Whilst that's
regrettable, we must focus energy on helping those that can to do
more.
In the interim period, revenue from Nettl Systems increased by
30% to GBP3.45m (2020: GBP2.66m). Within this segment, company
stores increased by 61% to GBP1.24m (2020: GBP0.77m). In the second
half of 2020, we rolled three businesses into our Birmingham and
Dublin company stores. If we exclude them this year, like-for-like
sales were GBP0.98m, up 27%. Licence fee and subscription income
increased to GBP1.04m (2020: GBP0.98m). The products our partners
sell - like signage, printing and promo goods - they buy from us at
wholesale prices, totalling GBP1.17m (2020: GBP0.92m).
Works Manchester
We manufacture signs, displays and a wide range of marketing and
promotional materials. And we sell those via our Image Group client
service team and Marqetspace.com. Revenue for Works Manchester
increased to GBP2.86m (2020: GBP2.59m). Sign sales were flat at
GBP1.92m (2020: GBP1.92m). That's really because in 2020 we were
flat out making social distancing signage, floor graphics and hand
sanitizers. So clients could make their premises covid-secure.
Marqetspace only sells to professional trade buyers. Sales
recovered on that channel to GBP0.94m (2020: GBP0.67m).
Works Manchester has a fairly fixed overhead base. When volumes
drop below certain levels, as they did due to Covid, the unit loses
money. As volumes improved, only modest increases were required to
flow straight to the bottom line. That's because, with batch
production, reduced volume is like flying an aircraft with empty
seats. We've worked hard to win new clients and expand what we can
do. In part that's come from a software upgrade we call 'Plans'. It
allows our sales teams and partners to build bespoke product
quotes, without any central support or admin. They configure their
multi-part projects in a simple interface, upload graphic files and
send straight to production. In the background, the system
intelligently plans the workflow, routing to the right machines,
calculating time and materials. It means we can be more responsive
to client requests and our partners can do more self-service.
Like most businesses, we've experienced cost increases across
almost every line item. Paper, aluminium printing plates,
distribution and energy have all seen double-digit rises. As
long-term contracts have ended, or stock is depleted, we've faced
increased costs. In the second half, we've increased our wholesale
and retail prices and it seems likely they'll have to increase
again. Our competitors have been forced to do the same. It's highly
likely that increased energy and input costs, coupled with
not-yet-back-to-normal demand and the removal of government support
will be too much for many printers to bear.
Works Manchester has plenty of capacity. It would benefit from
ingesting more external volume. We continue to look for strategic
partners or other opportunities to get more from this resource.
The Software Circle
In summer 2020, we ran a summer school for interns with London
Business School. We've developed a team of analysts and searchers.
They are looking for software businesses for us to acquire and
become part of the Group.
We've contacted hundreds of businesses, using the same kind of
sales and marketing techniques we use to target Nettl partners.
We're particularly interested in software businesses serving
vertical markets. Perhaps where the owner is thinking about
retirement planning. Often they're looking for a commercial partner
to take care of their team and client base. We're an ideal home to
provide continuity of support and maintain relationships.
The kind of businesses we've been getting to know include
management information systems, risk management systems and help
desk systems. Ideally, those businesses will be selling to SMEs and
that gives us cross-selling opportunities. We'll retain their
brands and we're not on some sort of masochistic plan to migrate
them to our platform. They'll keep their technology stack and we'll
integrate their finance function into the Group.
Whilst we're not rushing to do deals, we're hopeful of adding
businesses to the Group. We've got a number of ongoing discussions
and will provide further updates as things come to fruition.
If you own a software business or one of your mates is banging
on about theirs, please hop to www.grafenia.com/acquisition or

It's a WorksThing
When we acquired Image Group in 2017, we wanted to learn how to
manufacture and install signage at scale. The team were using a
third-party application to build estimates and schedule production.
Like much of the industry, it was used in conjunction with sketches
and text messages. Installations managed by Whatsapp and little
black books.
By their nature, sign and graphics orders are a lot more bespoke
than printed marketing. We've talked about 'Plans' before. It's
been the biggest part of our platform upgrade to go live. Building
an estimate previously took a lot of knowledge of the technical
aspects of manufacturing. How many fixings to add, how many hours
of labour to factor in.
We've turned this into a step-by-step visual process. Studios
can select a substrate, add as many parts as they need, in any
size. They can keep all artwork the same or specify different
designs for each copy. Then they can add standard finishes, like
lamination, or add stock-pick components like fixings or stands.
'The Imposer' tool works out the most efficient use of space. If
there are other orders with the same specification, they'll be
aggregated together onto the same sheets to minimise waste.
With that in place, we're finishing the final parts of digital
transformation. Every great install starts with a great survey.
Studios can self-survey using 'The Surveyor'. Pick up a tablet,
fill out the sections and snap pictures on-site. Back in the
studio, they build a plan, design the artwork and then request an
installation.
Communication is key. Complex manufacturing projects involve
several people. Every person added to a project disproportionately
increases the channels of communication. And that's a problem. With
so many ways of chatting, it's easy for critical changes to get
missed.
Our solution, 'The Arena', where everyone involved in the
project is included in a group chat. Linked directly to the
project. With all the details and history to view. An audit trail
of who said what to whom and when and what was agreed with her by
him.
Photos, progress and client sign off are all shared in a
timeline. Giving studios and clients confidence that everything's
going to plan.
We're launching this new system as WorksThing. It's an
end-to-end Software-as-a-Service for studios and sign makers. For
those that want to better manage their own installation teams. And
for those that want to sell and design displays and need the supply
chain and access to fitting teams.
Our Nettl company stores will be the first to add their
installers and contacts. Next our Nettl partners will be invited to
upgrade.
Right now we're inviting sign fitters to register at
www.worksthing.com . We have hundreds of professional buyers and
designers hooked into our platform. Many are subcontracting
fitting. Doing things manually. Flicking through little black
books. We'd like to send survey requests and fitting jobs to vetted
WorksThing fitters. It's free to join the waitlist.
WorksThing will be launching in 2022 and extends our offering to
a wider addressable market. It's the whole life cycle of a sign or
display order. From a chat box on your website, to an enquiry. To
an eye-catching online proposal, with sign off and deposit payment.
Building plans, ordering standard products and file management.
Surveys and installations synched with your calendar. And invoices
posted into Xero or Quickbooks. It's a modern tool, designed for
the manic reality of a complex world.
Outlook
We're currently in the second half of our financial year.
Trading in October was ahead of last year and November should end
better than last year.
We've come out of the pandemic in better shape than we went into
it. We're focusing our attention on building more recurring revenue
streams. That's by a mix of buying software companies. And by
building tools to licence to professionals in the graphic arts,
print and sign sectors. And to give our Nettl stores and partners
access to the best systems, to deliver a client experience that's
beyond what they're used to.
Who knows what the next black swan event will be. As your granny
probably told you, worry is just a misuse of your imagination. So
we're using ours to imagine a future, where Nettl is at the heart
of every community. And building for that day.

Notes
(forming part of the interim financial statements)
1 Basis of preparation
Grafenia plc (the "Company") is a company incorporated and
domiciled in the UK.
These financial statements do not include all information
required for full annual financial statements and should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements of the Company as at and
for the year ended 31 March 2021. Those accounts have been reported
on by the Company's auditors and delivered to the Registrar of
Companies. The report of the auditors was: (i) unqualified; (ii)
did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors
drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report;
and (iii) did not contain a statement under section 498 (2) or (3)
of the Companies Act 2006.
These interim financial statements are prepared on the same
basis as the financial statements for the
year ended 31 March 2021, in which our full set of accounting
policies, including critical judgements and key sources of
estimation uncertainty, can be found.
The Directors review a two-year forecast when approving the
interim financial statements to ensure that adequate cash resources
are in operational existence to support trading for the foreseeable
future.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were
approved by the Board of Directors on 19 November 2021.
2 Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies applied by the Company in these
condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as
those applied by the Company in its consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
3 Segmental information
The Company's primary operating segments are geographic being UK
& Ireland, Europe and others. The secondary segmental analysis
is by nature of sales channel and service.
This disclosure correlates with the information which is
presented to the Chief Executive (CEO), the Chief Operating
Decision Maker pursuant to IFRS 8, who reviews revenue (which is
considered to be the primary growth indicator) by segment. The
Company's costs, finance income, tax charges, non-current
liabilities, net assets and capital expenditure are only reviewed
by the CEO at a consolidated level and therefore have not been
allocated between segments.
