SCIENCE IN SPORT PLC
("SiS" or the "Company")
INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2018
Science in Sport plc (AIM: SIS), a leading sports nutrition
company that develops, manufactures and markets sports nutrition
products for professional athletes and sports enthusiasts, is
pleased to announce its unaudited results for the 6 months ended 30
June 2018.
Highlights
-- Revenues increased 20% to GBP9.93 million (H1 2017: GBP8.27
million) demonstrating continued strong growth, with the Company's
e-commerce platform delivering 30% growth across all markets. All
e-commerce channels now account for 53% of total revenues (H1 2017:
51%).
-- Investment in H1 driving strong momentum into H2, full year
revenue outlook in line with expectations.
-- International markets performed strongly with growth of 53%,
half the growth being driven by increased investment in the USA and
Italy which are trading in line with expectations, as is the
Australian business. International revenue accounts for 34% of
total revenue (H1 2017: 27%).
-- Increased strategic investment in International market
expansion and e-commerce platform to capture the strong growth
resulted in an increased underlying operating loss of GBP1.64
million* (H1 2017: -GBP1.14 million). The planned increased
investment, against a backdrop of tightly controlling costs, will
lead to a larger than expected EBITDA loss for the full year vs
market expectations.
-- Core business** is profitable at the half year for the first
time with GBP0.3 million EBITDA including GBP0.6 million loss in
new strategic vertical of Football, compared with breakeven H1
2017, continuing the trend from H2 2017.
-- Delivered against Company objective of maintaining gross
profit margin which remained consistent with H1 2017 at 59%.
-- New product development continued to be a key growth driver
and delivered GBP0.6 million of sales (H1 2017: GBP0.2 million)
contributing 35% to overall revenue growth and strong second half
pipeline in place.
-- Increased investment in marketing was focused on driving
brand awareness in International markets and on growing the
e-commerce business customer database by 22% net to 645k, despite
248k opting out under new GDPR legislation.
-- Significant investment in a major upgrade to the e-commerce
platform, logistics and financial systems and people in all markets
to support growth strategy.
-- Cash and cash equivalents of GBP10.7 million (H1 2017: GBP3.9
million) post fund raise in November 2017. Funds have been utilised
for investment in International markets, e-commerce platform and
investment in systems in all markets to support accelerated
growth.
-- The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Liberum
Capital Limited as nominated advisor and sole broker with immediate
effect.
* excludes depreciation, amortisation, and share based
payments
** core is defined as UK, EU and ROW, excluding strategic
markets USA, Italy & Australia, but including Football.
Stephen Moon, Science in Sport's CEO, said: "I am pleased that
we had a strong start to the year. We have achieved yet another
period of substantial growth, which saw revenue increase 20% year
on year, in line with expectations. Post period end we have seen
very strong growth in the three months to August as new initiatives
generate increased revenue in H2 as planned."
"The pace of change from offline to online across the retail
market is accelerating faster. The SIS brand is well placed to take
advantage of this structural shift and we continue to invest in our
people, technology and brand awareness to underpin our growth
ambitions. We launched our football business during the first
quarter, having secured an exclusive nutrition partnership with
Manchester United and we have already seen an impact on sales to
elite clubs. Growth from our own e-commerce platform has
accelerated strongly following commissioning our new web platform
across all strategic markets. Our strategy of focusing on online
and international growth continues to deliver results."
"Group operating losses reflect the increased investment in new
international markets, football and our e-commerce platform. The
core business has moved into profit at the half year for the first
time as we leverage the advantage of a strong gross margin and
tightly controlled costs. Having reached the milestone of
profitability in our core business and with promising early signs
in the USA, we are very confident for the future of the SIS
brand."

BUSINESS REVIEW
Overview and Strategy
We are delighted to report another strong set of interim
results, both financially and operationally. The six months to 30
June 2018 saw a period of strong revenue growth with half year
sales up 20% to GBP9.93 million from GBP8.27 million for the same
period last year, driven by International expansion, the launch of
Football and investing in our e-commerce business. This continues
to demonstrate the effectiveness of our growth strategy, as we
further extend our UK and International presence as a leader in the
global endurance sports nutrition market.
As part of our growth strategy, the Company has invested heavily
in International markets, focusing on the USA, Italy and Australia.
Major emphasis has been on building brand awareness and
implementing our proven online customer acquisition and conversion
model, both of which will continue to be key strategies in our
International expansion. In addition to strategic markets, we are
seeing good growth in a number of regions, as well as imminent
launches in new territories including China and Latin America.
We secured our exclusive nutrition partnership with Manchester
United Football Club in February, to spearhead our entry into the
new vertical of Football. This powerful endorsement has resulted in
growing elite usage, with more than 70 elite clubs now purchasing
from the Company. Education and product trial will be key to
gaining long term leadership in the sport and to this end an online
Football content hub has been launched. Progress is beginning to be
made in retail channels and SiS.com
The Core business has continued to perform well, and the Company
continues to invest in brand awareness to broaden visibility and
availability of our product across all retail and online channels.
The Core business is in profit at the half year for the first time
and will deliver further EBITDA in the second half.
We delivered against our objective of maintaining gross margin,
offsetting shipping and duty costs related to our growing
International business and the mix change due to the growth of
lower margin protein products. We continue to manage overhead
growth, in order to underpin investment in the brand and to benefit
from operational gearing.
Investment in our e-commerce platform and financial and
logistics systems continues, for both the Core market and to
facilitate effective logistics and high customer service levels in
strategic International markets. We invested significantly in the
development and launch of a new Magento 2 e-commerce platform in
Q1.
The Board continues to believe that there are significant growth
opportunities for the Company over the next few years. To maximise
these opportunities the Company will continue to invest in
International markets, Football, the e-commerce platform and
infrastructure, whilst growing profitability of the Core UK and EU
business.
Financial Summary
The 6 months to 30 June 2018 was a period of good revenue
growth, with sales up 20% at GBP9.93 million (H1 2017: GBP8.27
million). International and e-commerce sales growth was
particularly strong, reflecting the continued investment in our
e-commerce platform and brand awareness.
Gross profit of 59.0% (H1 2017: 58.8%) is reflective of our
low-cost manufacturing facility in Nelson which remains a strategic
advantage.
The underlying operating loss of GBP1.64 million (H1 2017:
GBP1.14 million loss) reflected the accelerated investment in all
markets in marketing, sales and e-commerce of GBP5.66 million (H1
2017: GBP4.67 million). The Core UK and EU business was profitable,
and will continue to deliver further profit in H2, in line with
management expectations.
Overheads excluding sales and marketing were GBP2.94 million (H1
2017: GBP2.39 million) for the six months. The increase was
primarily due to the premises, IT and legal and professional costs
associated with new overseas operations, together with additional
investment in new product development, and the impact of upskilling
finance, IT and HR from July 2017.
Cash and cash equivalents at the period end were GBP10.66
million (H1 2017: GBP3.88 million). Cash outflow since the year end
represents continued operational investment as planned to support
the strongly growing International and e-commerce businesses. In
addition, significant investment has continued in the e-commerce
platform to accelerate customer conversion, investment in systems
to further support International expansion with the integration of
third party logistics in the Italy and USA, as well as the
introduction of SAP to support finance and operations across the
whole business.
Sales Channels
Our e-commerce platform continues to be a key focus in 2018 and
has achieved growth across all markets of 30% for the period (H1
2016: 87%). The Company upgraded to the web platform Magento 2,
which was launched at the end of March. This was a significant
upgrade with new functionality as well as enhanced customer
experience. Third-party online performed well, growing 19% in the
period, with Amazon performing strongly with 34% growth.
Traditional retail channels saw a decline in the first half of
3% overall. Encouragingly, High Street sales have seen 7% growth
through new distribution with Superdrug and Holland & Barrett.
However, the Heartland of independent cycle and running shops
declined 7% compared with 2017, reflecting the continuing pressure
on this channel from online, although SiS continues to dominate
shelf space in the channel. Distribution in Grocery has continued
to come under space pressure from other lifestyle-oriented
categories, although we remain optimistic about the medium-term
potential of the channel, through extending distribution and new
product introduction.
International sales across all channels grew 53%, and 34% of
total revenues came from existing and new overseas markets (H1
2017: 27%). Additional digital marketing spend has been channeled
into the new strategic International markets of USA and Italy. We
have invested for growth in these markets in the first half, and we
are seeing growth accelerating in the third quarter as planned. The
infrastructure is in place in these markets to enable further
leverage going forward.
Across all International markets we are further developing our
relationship with Amazon, particularly in the USA. International
distributors contributed to our progress, with new markets such as
Russia, China and South America contributing to our growth
strategy.
Product Innovation
In the first half, 35% of total Group sales growth was delivered
through new products. One of the key launches in the first six
months was an Athlete Health range, formulated alongside six-time
Grand Tour winners Team Sky and available exclusively through
e-commerce channels.
We have also developed Beta Fuel with Team Sky, a high
carbohydrate isotonic sports drink, launched in July following a
successful trial period which included the fuelling of Chris Froome
in his Giro D'Italia victory.
The outlook for the remainder of 2018 is very positive. REGO
Power and Whey Power, developed in conjunction with Manchester
United, launched in August in the protein and recovery
categories.
We have continued to invest in this strategically important area
and have a strong pipeline of novel products. We expect innovation
revenue growth to be consistent with the contribution to sales made
in previous periods, and to continue to underpin our growth going
forward and maintain our position as the leading endurance sport
nutrition business
People
We have invested in commercial teams in the USA and Italy and
Football as well as investing in senior management in our supply
chain to accelerate our continued growth.
Investment in training and skills across both sites has
continued, with focus and investment on project management
skills.
Outlook
Whilst the trading environment in the UK remains difficult, we
are confident of delivering revenue growth in line with market
expectations for 2018. The Core UK and EU business will be
increasingly profitable at EBITDA level for the year. Accelerated
investment in e-commerce, International markets and new executive
management talent in the second half will underpin expected growth
plans for 2019.
Early progress in the USA supports our confidence to invest for
further growth over the coming years and new International
opportunities continue to present themselves. The investment in our
e-commerce platform has resulted in increased momentum in all
markets and this will be a key element of our long term growth
strategy.

Notes to the interim financial information
For the six months ended 30 June 2018
1. Basis of preparation
This interim report has been prepared using the same accounting
policies as those applied in the annual financial statements for
the year ended 31 December 2017, and those expected to be adopted
in the financial statements for the year ending 31 December
2018.
The Directors believe that the operating loss before
depreciation, amortisation and impairment of intangibles,
share-based payments and exceptional items measure provides
additional useful information for shareholders on underlying trends
and performance. This measure is used for internal performance
analysis.
Underlying operating loss is not defined by IFRS and therefore
many not be directly comparable with other companies' adjusted
profit measures. It is not intended to be suitable substitute for,
or superior to IFRS measurements of profit. A reconciliation of
underlying operating profit to statutory operating profit is set
out on the face of the statement of comprehensive income.
The condensed financial information herein has been prepared
using accounting policies consistent with International Financial
Reporting Standards in the European Union (IFRS). While the
financial figures included in this interim report have been
prepared in accordance with IFRS applicable for interim periods,
this interim report does not contain sufficient information to
constitute an interim financial report as defined in IAS 34.
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption not to apply
IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' since compliance is not
required by AIM listed companies.
This interim report does not constitute statutory accounts as
defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 and has been
neither audited nor reviewed by the Company's auditors Moore
Stephens LLP, pursuant to guidance issued by the Auditing Practices
Board.
The interim report should be read in conjunction with the annual
financial statements period ended 31 December 2017.
The statutory Accounts for the last period ended 31 December
2017 were approved by the Board on 20 March 2018 and are filed at
Companies House. The report of the auditors on those accounts was
unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of
emphasis and did not contain a statement under section 498 of the
Companies Act 2006.
The unaudited interim report was authorised by the Company's
Board of Directors on 18 September 2018
2. Segmental reporting
The Group's operating segments are determined based on the
Group's internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision Maker
(CODM). The CODM has been determined to be the Chief Executive
Officer, with support from the Board and senior management team.
The performance of operating segments is assessed on earnings
before interest, tax and depreciation, excluding equity-settles
share option charges recognised under IFRS 2 "Share-based
payment".
The Core segment manufactures and sells sports nutrition in the
UK through SiS.com, third-party etailers, grocers, high street and
heartland bike shops. Also included in this segment is sales to
Europe (excluding Italy) through distributors and online.
