Chief Executive's Statement
Results
For the half year your Company has achieved a profit of
GBP527,559, an increase on the GBP9,120 reported at this time in
2011.
The turnover is GBP5,476,188, an increase on last year's
GBP4,495,726. It is important to note that these results were
boosted both in the first half of last year and this year by the
income from two large contracts. The underlying sales in our
traditional markets have actually fallen reflecting the difficult
business environment which will have an impact on our results in
the second half.
Gross profit margins have increased this year due to the margins
achieved on a substantial one off contract, which was manufactured
in-house, meaning that additional overhead recovery was achieved
whilst fixed costs remained constant.
Trading
Our results have been sustained by the income from the large
contract. The turnover and return from our traditional markets have
been reduced due to two main factors - the erosion of margins
through pressure from our customers, and the reduction in the
volume and value of orders.
Your Company's management have followed a clearly defined
strategy to reduce overheads and adjust our operational structure
to respond to the current market requirements.
We have consolidated the sales offices, reducing the manpower
whilst working to deliver a motivated sales force, with our
representatives out in the field ably supported by an efficient
administration and effective supply chain. Strengthening the
management of our supply chain has been crucial for the continuous
review of our cost base to achieve best margin, and for achieving
best value in purchasing and so enhance our competitiveness and
profitability.
Staff
As part of the overall strategy to reduce overheads it has been
necessary to reduce staff costs. This has been achieved through a
reduction in staff numbers and an adjustment to the hours worked
each week. Some members of staff have been made redundant or
applications for voluntary redundancy have been accepted at all
levels of the business from the senior management to the sales
administration and shop floor. Changes in procedure and process are
resulting in improved efficiencies and productivity.
Whilst some of this work and associated costs were incurred in
the period to June, the majority of the costs will accrue in the
second half.
Following the completion of the one off contract during the
first six months, the management and staff have agreed to the
introduction of a thirty-four hour working week. This is a highly
effective cost saving measure, however I would like to see us
reverting to a thirty-seven and a half hour week as soon as
possible. Staffing attendance is being co-ordinated at all sites to
ensure optimum customer response.
The priorities are to retain jobs, skills and productivity.
Outlook
The overall economic environment is not inspiring. However this
Company in its very long history has weathered previous economic
storms, and the management and staff are working hard to bring our
overheads in line with our underlying turnover, and capitalise on
our heritage and our unique range of skills.
There are a number of exciting projects and rewarding sales
initiatives in hand.
The redevelopment of the Great Queen Street site is nearly
complete with a new tenant for the large ground floor and basement
retail areas, and the refurbishment of the first and second floors
that we are retaining for our own use. We will shortly be inviting
customers to come and visit the new Toye Club Room, and our
improved corporate sales offices.
Our sales team have been putting a great deal of energy into our
sales campaigns overseas and have identified good opportunities in
a number of market areas. We will continue to devote resources to
improving this promising trend.
An under-lying seam of finished product sale with minimal
administrative overhead is an important element for a stable
financial foundation for the business, and we are improving our
e-commerce provision and increasing our on-line sales. Our factory
shop in Bedworth serving the local community is doing well.
These are tough times that have meant tough changes for the
business. It is also a time of opportunity to deliver constructive
changes that will re-equip and adapt the Company for the future.
However I do not expect these improvements to have a material
impact on the second half of the year.

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements

The accounting policies and methods of computation followed in
the interim financial statement are consistent with those published

Reporting Standards (IFRS), and have been filed with the Registrar
of Companies. The auditor's report on these accounts was
unqualified and did not contain statements under Section 498 (2) or
Section 498 (3) of the Companies Act 2006 which deal respectively
with the maintaining of proper accounting books and records and the
availability of information to the auditors.
The Interim Report and Financial Statements were approved by the
Board of Directors on 28 September 2012. A copy of the interim
statement will be posted to shareholders and made available to the
