Interim Results
Braime (T.F.& J.H.) (Hldgs) PLC
20 September 2006
Sales of £5.21m for the first six months of 2006 were almost unchanged compared
to the same period of 2005 (£5.14m). However, the operating loss increased from
£104,000 in 2005 to £225,000 in 2006 and after adjusting for finance costs, the
net group loss increased from £81,000 to £218,000. The directors have decided
that, in these circumstances, it is not possible to pay an interim dividend.
The unsatisfactory result is due to the continuing losses sustained by our
manufacturing business.
During the first half of 2006, a significant restructuring program, regrettably
including redundancies, has been undertaken to reduce the overhead costs of
Braime Pressings Limited. Two substantial long term contracts for new presswork
have been secured. Supplies to one of the new customers began in mid July. In
the case of the second customer, tooling orders were placed in early September
and production is due to commence in March/April 2007. The combined effect of
the reduction in our overhead costs and the contribution from the additional
work will return the group to profit in 2007, providing the other subsidiaries
continue to trade satisfactorily.
