Interim Results

For the Six Months ended 30 June 2014

 

Starcom (AIM: STAR), which specialises in the development of wireless solutions for the remote tracking, monitoring and protection of a variety of assets and people, announces its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2014.

 

 

Highlights

 

·     Revenue for the period of $2.91m (H1 2013: $3.49m)

·     Gross Margin of 51.7%

·     Loss for the period of $557,000 (H1 2013: $89,000)

·     Successful fundraising of £2.0m

·     Four new products being released in 2014

                  

 

Michael Rosenberg, Chairman of Starcom, commented, "The impact of the loss of sales in Ukraine and slower than anticipated growth from sales of the WatchLock caused revenues in the first six months to fall below the same period last year.  However, based on our existing pipeline of projects it is anticipated that revenues for the second half of 2014 will more than compensate for the slow first half and are expected to show an improvement on total sales for last year though somewhat below market expectations."

CHAIRMEN'S STATEMENT

 

 

Revenue for the period was $2.92m (H1 2013: $3.5m), with gross profit of $1.51m (H1 2013: $1.98m). The Company recorded an operating loss of $671,000 (H1 2013: profit $609,000), with a total comprehensive loss of $557,000 (H1 2013: loss $89,000). The gross margin was 51.7% a reduction from the comparative period last year (H1 2013: 56.7%). The Company achieved a large reduction in trade payables, with $1.2m due at 30 June 2014 (30 June 2013: $2.43m).

 

During the period a total of £2m was raised by way of a placing of 13.3m new shares at a price of 15p. These funds have been applied in providing additional working capital and further strengthening the support and sales team within the business.

 

Product development continues across all the areas of the business as we continue to respond to customers' needs.

 

 

HELIOS

The new versions of Helios, the Company's vehicle tracking system, are proving successful in the market following their launch in Q2 2014. The Helios TT (track and trace) which is aimed at the motorcycle market is already gaining sales in that sector due to its low price point and easy installation. It is available in a waterproof case that offers maximum protection from water damage; being particularly useful in extreme weather conditions.

 

The recently launched Helios Hybrid has been developed to address the problems of covering areas without cellular coverage, ensuring real time tracking monitoring and management in any area. This is an innovative integration between the Helios GSM/HSPA vehicle location unit and an iridium satellite module. Although the unit cost for this module is higher than standard models, by removing the dependence on mobile communication the hybrid system works anywhere on the globe and as a result this product has been well received by the market, and the Company expects to see sales in the second half of the year.

 

The Company is currently developing a partnership with a strong player in the market which will enhance the potential of the product in this very fragmented market.

 

 

TRITON

Triton is one of the most advanced systems available in the world for the real time tracking of dry containers and the new version of Triton has now successfully completed a wide range of environmental tests. The units were successfully tested in extreme temperatures of -40°C up to +85°C and monitored other detrimental factors such as humidity and vibration. The success of these tests should prove the robustness of the unit, thus enhancing the opportunities for growth in revenues from this product.

 

The Company is currently running pilots with several potential customers and is now producing the product commercially with some initial sales expected in the second half of 2014.

 

 

KYLOS

Kylos is both an asset and people locator. The new compact version is greatly reduced in size, making it concealable and more portable. It can be set as a personal locator to be used with children or pets or any asset which needs tracking, such as merchandise as it moves from one location to another regardless of distance or method of transportation. Following a period of development, this product is expected to be launched into the market shortly.

 

 

WATCHLOCK

The second generation of Watchlock is under development and should be ready for market during the first half of 2015. This will be a more compact and cheaper version of the existing model and will feature a much improved battery life as well as additional functions that will improve the security of the product. As a result much of the marketing activity for this product is aimed at producing sales in 2015. The Company has seen a slower performance of Watchlock sales from its partner, Mul-T-Lock, which is also due to a refocusing of its marketing efforts on the anticipated launch of the second generation Watchlock.

 

Sales in North America are still being affected by the requirement for the system to be approved by certain regulatory authorities in the US. The Company has complied with all necessary requirements and is now awaiting formal approval.

 

 

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Sales for the period were lower than expected, amounting to $2.92m compared with $3.5m for the same period last year. Gross margins remained strong at 51.7% (H1 2013: 56.7%).

 

Total comprehensive loss for the period was $557,000, compared with $89,000 for the same period last year, mainly as a result of reduced sales as well as an increase in operating expenses to $2.18m (H1 2013: $1.37m), owing to the rise in sales and marketing, research and development costs, and which included one off costs for the placing of new shares during the period and additional travel expenses.

 

Although the level of trade receivables at the half year was high, many of these are now being collected and cash generation is at an acceptable level to support current trading.

 

Furthermore, the Company achieved a large reduction in trade payables, being $1.2m at the period end (H1 2013: $2.43m).

 

 

OUTLOOK

The slow start to the year was compounded by the loss of sales to Ukraine, which in the 2013 financial year represented around 20% of sales. The Company has been impacted further by slower than expected WatchLock revenues, partly due to the delays caused in the US by regulatory authorities and the lack of traction from the Company's partner, Mul-T-Lock.

 

The Company has been encouraged, however, with the addition of a new Guatemalan distributor, as announced on 27 May 2014, which has placed orders for a significant number of units from across the Company's product portfolio. Revenue of $400,000 is expected to be received in respect of the order during the year and the three year contract represents a total value of $1.8m. Furthermore, post the period end, the Company announced that it had signed a three year supply and support agreement with a major new distributor operating across Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and Central America, with an initial order already received.

 

The Company has a strong pipeline of new prospects and during the year a large number of potential new customers have been identified around the globe. The Board anticipates that sales for the second half will improve and confidently expects that total revenues for the year will exceed the comparative figure for 2013. However, although the Company expects to be profitable, revenue and profit figures are expected to be lower than current market expectations. The Board remains optimistic on prospects and the new product launches, such as the Triton and WatchLock II, coupled with a wider range of clients, should enable growth to continue in 2015.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

U.S. Dollars in thousands

 

NOTE 1 -

GENERAL INFORMATION

 


  a.

The Reporting Entity





Starcom plc ("the Company") was incorporated in Jersey on November 28, 2012. During February 2013 the Company signed an asset purchase agreement with Starcom Systems S.A., a Panamanian company that specializes in easy-to-use practical wireless solutions that combine advanced technology, telecommunications and digital data for the protection and management of people, fleets of vehicles, containers and assets and engages in production, marketing, distribution, research and development of G.P.S systems.




In accordance with the agreement, Starcom Systems S.A. sold to the Company for a nominal consideration its business and assets, including its holdings in Starcom G.P.S. Systems Limited, an Israeli company that engages in the same field.




Subsequent to completion of the transaction, the Company transferred to an additional company in Jersey, Starcom Systems Limited, its entire activity, except for its holdings in Starcom G.P.S Limited, for a nominal consideration. Thus, the Company became a holding company, holding 100% of Starcom Systems Limited and approximately 97% of Starcom G.P.S Limited, where Company operations are conducted.




During 2013, the Company acquired the remaining 3% of Starcom G.P.S. Limited.




On February 27, 2013 the Company's shares were admitted to trading on London's Stock Exchange Alternative Investment Market ("AIM") following a successful Initial Public Offering ("IPO") raising £ 2.72 ($ 4.09) million before expenses, reflecting a Company valuation of £ 14.2 ($ 27.53) million.

On February 3, 2014 the Company raised £ 2 million before expenses. For additional detail in regard to the infusion of capital see Note 3.

NOTE 2 -

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGE IN THE GROUP'S ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 





 a.

Basis of preparation



The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the preparation of financial statements for interim periods, as prescribed in International Accounting Standard No. 34 ("Interim Financial Reporting").

The interim consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements as of 31 December, 2013 and for the year ended on that date and with the notes thereto,

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2013 are applied consistently in these interim consolidated financial statements, except adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of 1 January 2014, as detailed in Note 2c below.

 

 




 

 


b.

Use of estimates and judgments

 

 



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management of make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

 



The judgment of management, when implementing the Group accounting policies and the basic assumptions utilized in the estimates that are bound up in uncertainties are consistent with those that were utilized to prepare the annual financial statements.

 

 




 

 


c.

Changes in the accounting policies

 

 

 



The Group applies, for the first time, certain standards and amendments as detailed below. As required by IAS 34, the nature and the effect of these changes are disclosed below.

 

Amendments to IAS 32, "Financial Instruments: Presentation regarding Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities":

 

The IASB issued amendments to IAS 32 ("the amendments to IAS 32") regarding the offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities. The amendments to IAS 32 clarify, among others, the meaning of "currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off" ("the right of set-off"). Among others, the amendments to IAS 32 prescribe that the right of set-off must be legally enforceable not only during the ordinary course of business of the parties to the contract but also in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of one of the parties. The amendments to IAS 32 also state that in order for the right of set-off to be currently available, it must not be contingent on a future event, there may not be periods during which the right is not available, or there may not be any events that will cause the right to expire.

 

The amendments to IAS 32 are to be applied retrospectively from the financial statements for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2014 or thereafter. Earlier application is permitted.

 

Implementation of the amendments to IAS 32 did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

 

Amendments to IAS 36, "Impairment of Assets":

 

In May 2013, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 36, "Impairment of Assets" ("the amendments") regarding the disclosure requirements of fair value less costs of disposal. The amendments include additional disclosure requirements of the recoverable amount and fair value. The additional disclosures include the fair value hierarchy, the valuation techniques and changes therein, the discount rates and the principal assumptions underlying the valuations.

 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2014 or thereafter. Earlier application is permitted.

 

The appropriate disclosures will be included in the Company's financial statements upon the first-time adoption of the amendments.

 

 

           IFRIC 21, "Levies":

 

In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21, "Levies" (IFRIC 21") regarding levies imposed by governments through legislation. According to IFRIC 21, the liability to pay a levy will only be recognized when the activity that triggers payment occurs.

 

IFRIC 21 is effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2014 or thereafter. Earlier application is permitted.

 

The Company is evaluating the possible impact of the adoption of IFRIC 21 but is presently unable to assess its effect, if any, on the financial statements.

 


IFRS 15  Revenues from Contracts with Clients


This Standard changes the existing guidelines in regard to recognition of revenues and presents a new module for revenue recognition from contracts with clients. The Standard determines that there are two approaches to revenue recognition: At one point or over a period of time. The module includes five stages for analysis of transactions in order to determine the timing of revenue recognition and its amount. Concurrently, the Standard determines new disclosure requirements that are broader than those currently in existence.





The Standard will be implemented for annual periods commencing with January 1, 2017, with the possibility of early adoption. The Standard includes various alternatives for the transfer period, so that companies may choose one of the following alternatives at the time of initial implementation: full retrospective implementation, full retrospective implementation including practical reliefs; or implementation of the Standard commencing with its initial implementation date, while amending the balance of surplus at that date in regard to transactions that are as yet not completed.





The Group has not as yet examined the implication of implementation of the Standard on the financial statements.



  

IFRS 9 (2014) Financial Instruments

 

In accordance with the Standard, there are three main categories for measurement of financial instruments: depreciated cost, fair value through the statement of operations and fair value through other comprehensive income. The basis of classification for receivable instruments is based on the transaction module of the entity for management of financial instruments and the characteristics of the forecasted cash flows of the financial instrument. Investment in capital instruments will be measured by fair value through the statement of operations (unless the company chose, upon initial recognition, to present the changes in fair value in other comprehensive income).

 



The Standard will be implemented at annual periods commencing January 1, 2018, with the possibility of early adoption. The Standard may be implemented retroactively, except for some reliefs.

 



The Group has not as yet examined the implication of implementation of the Standard on the financial statements.

 



d.  Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments.
