Boxhill Technologies PLC
31 October 2017
Dissemination of a Regulatory Announcement that contains inside
information according to REGULATION (EU) No 596/2014 (MAR).
Boxhill Technologies PLC
("Boxhill" or the "Company" or the "Group")
Half-Yearly Report for the period ended 31 July 2017
31 October 2017
Chairman's Statement
The half year to 31 July 2017 has seen significant balance sheet
improvements despite a reduction in revenue (GBP559,000 H117 versus
GBP1,125,000 in the six months to 31 July 2016) delivering an
operating loss for the six months to 31 July 2017 of GBP358,000.
This compares to an operating profit of GBP288,000 for the six
months ended to 31 July 2016. The operating loss is somewhat offset
by the revaluation of equity investment in Timegrand which takes
Total Comprehensive Income for H1 2017 to GBP141,000. (GBP288,000
in H1 2016).
The first half of the year has seen continued investment in
technology roll out and regulatory and compliance management in the
payments division. Unfortunately certain planned H1 revenues have
slipped into H2 due to circumstances outside the group's control.
Having said that, the independent assessment of Timegrand has
valued the software at GBP1.5m contributing to a 27% improvement in
total assets rising to GBP3,641,000 (from GBP2,848,000 in the first
half of 2016).
The Company continues to expand its geographical reach and roll
out new technologies. In H1 2017 we have successfully launched
multi-currency vIBANs (virtual international bank account numbers)
for individuals and corporations and introduced SMS based two-stage
verification of payments from accounts. The total number of
accounts is increasing steadily with over 2000 registered users.
EmexGo account users have the unique ability to fund by, and pay
out to, any card from any issuer world wide.
EmexPay, the credit card processing business, has seen growth in
revenues growing at an average of 95% per month as customers
reintegrate after the disruption to services last year - and this
trend is expected to continue throughout the year. Additionally,
new China Union Pay facilities agreed in September opens up further
opportunities for existing and new merchants to access what is the
largest card payment organisation in the world.
The Emex branded companies have been present at a number of key
trade and specialist industry events, including recent attendance
at SIBOS (Swift International Banking Operations Seminar) in
Toronto and they will be exhibiting at Sigma (Summit of iGaming) in
Malta in November.
Our network of corresponding financial institutions continues to
grow with new key relationships in Europe, Africa and the
Caribbean. New licence applications are in progress in Mauritius
and central Europe, both of which are due to be granted in the very
near future, improving our ability to deliver services
worldwide.
Prize Provision Services Limited ("PPS"), which operates The
Weather Lottery, is operating as expected and in line with
projections. PPS has recently launched the Sports Club Lottery
http://sportsclublottery.com, a sister product to The Weather
Lottery, which is focussed solely on helping local sports clubs
raise additional funds through the operation of their own
subscription lottery. Additional account management staff have been
hired by PPS and tasked with increasing participants playing the
lotteries which the company administers on behalf of its
clients.
Soccerdome Ltd holds a stake in Nineteen Twelve Holdings Ltd,
the owner a 5-a-side football centre in Nottingham, operated by
Astro Kings Ltd. As outlined in the Full Year Results published 7
July 2017, the football pitch business is no longer considered an
operating segment of the Group. The venture faces strong
competitive challenges following the expansion in number of
all-weather pitches available in the region over recent years.
Naturally, this has led to a highly competitive marketplace. The
directors do not expect there to be any significant impact upon the
group from this venture.
Boxhill's payments division has a very healthy sale pipeline
with a number of significant transactions in progress which are
expected to close in the coming few weeks which will yield revenues
well in excess of the entire business H1 revenues.
Finally, the company is pleased to announce that all historical
legal matters have successfully been bought to a close.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT
1. Accounting policies
Basis of Accounting and Preparation
These interim results for the six months ended 31 July 2017 have
been prepared using the historical cost and fair value conventions
on the basis of the accounting policies set out below. This interim
report has been prepared in accordance with IFRS's, it is not in
accordance with IAS 34 and therefore is not fully compliant with
IFRS.
These interim results have been prepared under the historical
cost convention. Areas where other bases are applied are identified
in the accounting policies below.
The financial information set out in this interim report does
not constitute statutory accounts as defined in the Companies Act
2006. The Company's statutory financial statements for the year
ended 31 January 2017 have been filed with the Registrar of
Companies. The auditor's report on those financial statements was
unqualified.
This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements
with respect to the operations, performance and financial position
of the Group. By their nature, these statements involve uncertainty
since future events and circumstances can cause results and
developments to differ materially from those anticipated. The
forward-looking statements reflect knowledge and information
available at the date of the preparation of this announcement and
the Company undertakes no obligation to update these
forward-looking statements. Nothing in this Interim Financial
Report should be construed as a profit forecast.
The results for the six months ended 31 July 2017 were approved
by the Board on 30 October 2017.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial
statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company
(its subsidiaries) made up to 31 January and 31 July each year.
Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the
financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its
activities.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the
year are included in the consolidated income statement 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 the accounting policies used
into line with those used by the Group.
Business combinations
All business combinations are accounted for by applying the
acquisition method. Business combinations are accounted for using
the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the
date on which control is transferred to the Group.
The Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:
the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus
the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the
acquiree; plus
the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree;
less
the net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is
recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated
with the issue of debt or equity securities, are expensed as
incurred.
Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value
at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is
classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is
accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the
fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit
or loss.
Where fair values are estimated on a provisional basis they are
finalised within 12 months of acquisition with consequent changes
to the amount of goodwill.
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income
and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted
investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of
the Group's interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are
eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the
extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Intangible assets
Expenditure on research activities is recognised in the income
statement as an expense as incurred.
Expenditure on development activities is capitalised if the
product or process is technically and commercially feasible and the
Group intends to and has the technical ability and sufficient
resources to complete development, future economic benefits are
probable and if the Group can measure reliably the expenditure
attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production
of new or substantially improved products or processes. The
expenditure capitalised includes the cost of materials, direct
labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads and capitalised
borrowing costs. Other development expenditure is recognised in the
income statement as an expense as incurred. Capitalised development
expenditure is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and
less accumulated impairment losses.
Expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands is
recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred.
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are
stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated
impairment losses.
For intangible assets with finite useful lives amortisation is
charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful lives of intangible assets unless such lives are
indefinite. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life and
goodwill are systematically tested for impairment at each balance
sheet date. Other intangible assets are amortised from the date
they are available for use. The estimated useful lives are as
follows:
Licences, patents and trademarks 25 years
Capitalised development costs 10 years
In addition to amortisation, at each balance sheet date the
Group reviews the carrying amounts of its intangible assets to
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have
suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the
recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine
the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Recoverable amount is
the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. An
impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately, unless the
relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the
impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where an
impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the
asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable
amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed
the carrying amount that would have been determined had no
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the
Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on consolidation represents the excess cost of
acquisition over the Group's interest in the fair value of the
identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary at the date of
acquisition. Goodwill is initially recognised as an asset and
reviewed for impairment at least annually. Any impairment is
recognised immediately in the income statement and is not
subsequently reviewed.
Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment
losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is not
amortised but is tested annually for impairment. In respect of
equity accounted investees, the carrying amount of goodwill is
included in the carrying amount of the investment in the
investee.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised when the service is rendered:
-- Lottery business revenue represents takings received for
entry into the lottery prize draws. Revenue is recognised on the
date that the draw takes place.
-- Football pitch revenue represents cash takings received for
pitch bookings, recognised on the day of use by the customer.
-- Payment processing revenue is recognised when transactions are processed.
-- Digital wallet revenue is recognised at the point when a chargeable transaction occurs.
Taxation
Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and
deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the income statement except to
the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity,
in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the
taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment
to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following
temporary differences are not provided for: the initial recognition
of goodwill; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that
affect neither accounting nor taxable profit other than in a
business combination, and differences relating to investments in
subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in
the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is
based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the
carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted
or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is
probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the temporary difference can be utilised.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation and any recognised accumulated impairment
losses. Useful lives are reviewed annually by the Directors.
Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have
different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of
property, plant and equipment.
Leases in which the Group assumes substantially all the risks
and rewards of ownership of the leased asset are classified as
finance leases. Where land and buildings are held under leases the
accounting treatment of the land is considered separately from that
of the buildings. Leased assets acquired by way of finance lease
are stated at an amount equal to the lower of their fair value and
the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the
lease, less accumulated depreciation and less accumulated
impairment losses. Lease payments are accounted for as described
below.
Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of
an item of property, plant and equipment. Land is not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
-- buildings 20 years
-- plant and equipment 4 years
-- fixtures and fittings 4 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are
reviewed at each balance sheet date.
Leased assets
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the
income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in the income
statement as an integral part of the total lease expense.
Finance lease payments
Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance
charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance
charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to
produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining
balance of the liability.
Financing income and expenses
Financing expenses comprise interest payable, finance charges on
shares classified as liabilities and finance leases recognised in
profit or loss using the effective interest method, unwinding of
the discount on provisions, and net foreign exchange losses that
are recognised in the income statement (see foreign currency
accounting policy). Borrowing costs that are directly attributable
to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that
takes a substantial time to be prepared for use, are capitalised as
part of the cost of that asset. Financing income comprise interest
receivable on funds invested, dividend income, and net foreign
exchange gains.
Interest income and interest payable is recognised in profit or
loss as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Dividend
income is recognised in the income statement on the date the
entity's right to receive payments is established. Foreign currency
gains and losses are reported on a net basis.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets excluding
goodwill
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying
amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have suffered an
impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable
amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent
of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate
cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group
estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to
which the asset belongs. An intangible asset with an indefinite
useful life is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is
an indication that the asset may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair values less costs to
sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a
pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for
which the estimate of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit)
is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying
amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised as an expense
immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued
amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a
revaluation decrease.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying
amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is increased to the
revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the
increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised
for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of
an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately, unless the
relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the
reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation
increase.
Foreign currencies
The individual financial statements of each Group company are
presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in
which it operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the
consolidated financial statements, the results and financial
position of each Group company are expressed in Pounds Sterling,
which is the functional currency of the Group, and the presentation
currency for the consolidated financial statements.
In preparing the financial statements of the individual
companies, transactions in currencies other than the entity's
function currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at the rates of
exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each
balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are
denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates
prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items carried at
fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are
translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value
was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of
historical costs in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the
period in which they arise.
Share based payments
Share-based payment arrangements in which the Group receives
goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments
are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payment
transactions, regardless of how the equity instruments are obtained
by the Group.
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted
to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a
corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the
employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards. The fair
value of the options granted is measured using an option valuation
model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the
options were granted. The amount recognised as an expense is
adjusted to reflect the actual number of awards for which the
related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to
be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is
based on the number of awards that do meet the related service and
non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For
share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant
date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect
such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between
expected and actual outcomes.
Share-based payment transactions in which the Group receives
goods or services by incurring a liability to transfer cash or
other assets that is based on the price of the Group's equity
instruments are accounted for as cash-settled share-based payments.
The fair value of the amount payable to employees is recognised as
an expense, with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the
period in which the employees become unconditionally entitled to
payment. The liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date and
at settlement date. Any changes in the fair value of the liability
are recognised as personnel expense in profit or loss.
Other than for business combinations, the only share based
payments of the Group are equity settled share options and certain
liability settlements. The Group has applied the requirements of
IFRS 2 - Share-based Payments.
For share options granted an option pricing model is used to
estimate the fair value of each option at grant date. That fair
value is charged on a straight line basis as an expense in the
income statement over the period that the holder becomes
unconditionally entitled to the options (vesting period), with a
corresponding increase in equity.
For shares issued in settlement of fees and/or liabilities, the
Directors estimate the fair value of the shares at issue date and
that value is charged on a straight line basis as an expense in the
income statement (for fees) or reduction in the balance sheet
liability (for liabilities) with a corresponding increase in
equity.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net recognised
value. Cost comprises direct materials using the first in first out
(FIFO) basis. Net recognised value represents the estimated selling
price less estimated costs of completion, marketing and
selling.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand and demand
deposits and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in
value.
Trade receivables
Trade receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair
value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method. Appropriate allowances for
estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in profit and loss
when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. The
allowance recognised is measured as the difference between the
asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future
cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate compound at
initial recognition.
Trade receivables do not carry any interest and are stated at
their nominal value as reduced by appropriate allowances for
estimated irrecoverable amounts.
Financial liability and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified
according to the substance of the contractual agreements entered
into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a
residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of
its liabilities. Equity instruments are recognised at the amount of
proceeds received net of costs directly attributable to the
transaction. To the extent that those proceeds exceed the par value
of the shares issued they are credited to a share premium
account.
Bank borrowings
Interest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recorded at the
proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges,
including premiums payable on settlement or redemption and direct
issue costs, are accounted for on an accrual basis in profit or
loss using effective interest rate method and are added to the
carrying amount of the instrument to the extent that they are not
settled in the period in which they arise.
Trade payables
Trade payables are not interest-bearing and are stated at their
nominal value.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present
obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the
Group will be required to settle that obligation. Provisions are
measured at the Directors' best estimate of the expenditure
required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, and
are discounted to present value where the effect is material.
2. Earnings per ordinary share
The calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings
per share is based on the results and weighted average number of
ordinary shares as follows:
6 month 6 month 12 month
Period ended Period ended ended
31-Jul 31-Jul 31-Jan
2017 2016 2017
(unaudited) (unaudited) (audited)
Attributable to equity 141 288 2
----------------------------- ----------------------------- -------------------
Weighted average number of
ordinary shares:
Basic 2,147,496,437 1,570,115,484 1,722,496,437
----------------------------- ----------------------------- -------------------
In June 2010 the Company issued 24 million options to subscribe
for Ordinary Shares of 0.1p each. At the period end 8.1 million
options were outstanding. As the exercise price for all of these
options was greater than the average share price in both periods,
the options are not dilutive and therefore diluted earnings per
share is the same as basic earnings per share.
