Financial Review

The Company has started 2011 with a strong performance making a net profit after tax to 30 June 2011 of €3.0 million and revenues of €16.2 million.    

The Carbon projects business generated revenue of €11.6 million and segment profit increased to €5.3 million for the period. This is due to the successful completion of projects and fair value price variances during the period.  Once Camco has completed a project through achieving the key regulatory milestone of registration and has provided its technical services, revenue recognition is triggered.

The Energy and Carbon Advisory business has further improved profitability delivering €4.2 million revenue and a segment profit of €0.7 million.

The Clean Energy Project Development and Investment business incurred a net loss of €0.8 million whilst the focus remains on signing and developing projects for future production. 

The unrealised €1.4m adverse movement in exchange differences on translation of foreign operations relates predominantly to the Group's USD assets (the SEA and US joint ventures) which depreciated in EUR terms due to a 9% swing on the USD/EUR exchange rate in the period.

As at 30 June 2011 the Company had a net cash balance of €14.9 million.  The Company had a net operating cash inflow for the period of €2.3m.

Post 30 June 2011 period end, the EUA and CER forward curve has reduced.  Camco's commercialisation strategy is to sell credits as projects mature.  Therefore the Company is less impacted by short-term movements in carbon prices.  However, if the current carbon price reduction persists, it may adversely impact our accrued income balance at year end.

 

 

 

Segment Operational Review as at 30 June 2011

Carbon Project Development

The period saw Camco's post 2012 carbon portfolio increase significantly to 41.5 million tonnes.  These tonnes are scheduled to deliver during the period 2013 to 2020.  Camco signed, during the period, carbon development agreements for 20 wind projects in China with capacity of over 1,000MW.

Our teams completed projects in the period that will now begin to deliver an estimated 4.8 million tonnes of emission reductions certificates to Camco and commercial value to our partners.  Deliveries and forward sale transactions closed locked in prices for 1.9 million in specie tonnes of the pre 2012 portfolio and revenue share delivered a further 3.0 million tonnes.

Camco has been expanding its carbon portfolio in North America and has over 2.0 million tonnes of emissions reductions under contract to date.  Camco has seven projects registered with the Climate Action Reserve, predicted to deliver over 1.0 million tonnes, and another four projects on track for registration by the end of 2011.

Energy and Carbon Advisory

Camco's Advisory business continued to grow in the first half of 2011, with contract wins of €2.5 million gross profit value.  There was a particularly strong demand for consultancy in the UK from both public and private sector clients in the run up to the introduction of the Carbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency Scheme and Feed-in Tariffs. In addition, demand for Camco's services in Africa has increased.

Clean Energy Project Development and Investment

Camco has expanded its Clean Energy project operations in North America and Asia, increasing its pipeline of projects for development in both regions.

In North America Camco has put together a consortium, AgPower Group LLC, with extensive experience in building anaerobic digesters that successfully convert manure and other agricultural organic feedstock into renewable energy.  The initial focus is on the dairy sector with a view to expanding into other agricultural feedstock areas. Our team has reached financial close and commenced construction of a 4.5MW biogas installation, which will convert manure from over 10,000 cows into energy.  This capacity translates into 39.4 GWh of generation. Completion of construction is anticipated in the first half of 2012. The project is wholly owned by Camco and operated by AgPower LLC.

Camco, with its partners, was awarded a share of a $1.5 million grant from the US Department of Agriculture to develop a program to improve nitrogen management practices on farms and reduce N2O emissions, a potent greenhouse gas.

Our South East Asian team (part of the Company's joint venture in Malaysia) signed new carbon projects expected to deliver 1.9 million tonnes in Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand, providing a strong basis for growth in the region.

 

Outlook

All three business segments are experiencing growth and delivering projects.  The Carbon business is progressing well to complete more projects this year and further increase its portfolio. Fair value income performance for the carbon business will be subject to carbon price market volatility, if current carbon prices persist these may adversely impact our accrued income balance. The Company will continue to commercialise carbon projects as they mature.  The Advisory business has a strong order book and is expected to continue its expansion in the UK and Africa.   The Clean Energy project business will continue to develop with good market conditions in both Asia and North America.

 

Management Share Issue

As part of Camco's existing Long Term Incentive Plan, Scott McGregor (CEO) and Yariv Cohen (President) have each been awarded 2,750,000 Ordinary Shares at nominal value which may vest between now and 30 September 2012 should certain future share price and operational performance targets set by the board be met.

Notes

Significant accounting policies

Camco International Limited (the "Company") is a public company incorporated in Jersey under Companies (Jersey) Law 1991.  The address of its registered office is Channel House, Green Street, St Helier, Jersey JE2 4UH.  The consolidated interim financial report of the Company for the period from 1 January 2011 to 30 June 2011 comprises of the Company and its subsidiaries (together the "Group").

 

Basis of preparation

The annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2010 have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU ("Adopted IFRSs").  The interim set of financial statements included in this half-yearly report has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRSs as adopted by the EU. The interim set of financial statements has been prepared applying the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the company's published consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010.  They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2010.

This interim financial information has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the annual financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2010.  The accounting policies have been consistently applied across all Group entities for the purpose of producing this interim financial report.

The financial information included in this document does not comprise of statutory accounts within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991.  The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 December 2010 are not the company's statutory accounts for that financial year within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. Those accounts have been reported on by the company's auditors and delivered to the Jersey Financial Services Commission. The report of the auditors was unqualified.

 

Estimates

The preparation of the interim financial report in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.  The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

 

Presentation of Cash Flow Statement

Presentation of Reporting cash flows from operating activities has been changed from direct method (whereby major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments are disclosed)  to the indirect method, (whereby profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments, and items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows) . Comparatives have been also changed to indirect method.



 

Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be  recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the non-current asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Management must be committed to the sale, which  should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of  classification.

When the Group is committed to a sale plan involving loss of control of a subsidiary, all of the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary are classified as held for sale when the criteria described above are met,  regardless of whether the Group will retain a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary after the sale.

Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

 

1   Segmental Reporting

Operating segments

The Group comprises of the following main reporting segments:

 

1.    Carbon: The Carbon Project Development teams provide CDC consultancy services on carbon asset development, commercialisation and portfolio management.

2.    Advisory: The Energy and Carbon Advisory teams provide strategic, commercial and technical expertise accrued over two decades to deliver low carbon energy and sustainable development solutions.

3.      Investments: The Clean Energy Project Development and Investment teams collaborate with industry, project developers, equipment providers and investor groups to create emissions-to-energy projects and maximise sustainable energy production across a range of industries; including agricultural methane, industrial energy efficiency, coal mine methane, municipal solid waste, biomass and landfill gas.

Inter segment transactions are carried out at arm's length.

3 Initial Revenue Recognition

Once Camco has completed a project by achieving the key regulatory milestone of registration and fulfilment of all technical services to secure successful operation, revenue recognition is triggered.   Revenue is initially recognised as accrued income, the amount of which is a discounted cash flow based on the predicted volume of carbon credits to be delivered to Camco and the price at which those credits can be commercialised.  This may either be fixed contractually or float with the carbon market.

 

4 Subsequent Revenue Movements

As the project delivers credits, Camco will commercialise these and obtain cash in return, at this point cash (or an account receivable) is recognised and the corresponding accrued income derecognised. Alternatively, Camco may forward sell the title of credits to deliver on a project, in which case cash is received in advance of the credits but the corresponding derecognition of accrued income occurs in the same manner. If the price achieved for the sale of the credits is above that initially recognised on the credits, then additional revenue will be recognised; if it is lower, then a reduction in revenue will occur. Any amendments to credit sale or purchase contracts may have a similar effect.

 

If the predicted volume of carbon credits to be delivered by a project increases or decreases, both revenue and accrued income will increase or decrease with it. The same will happen with the forecast carbon market price if the project does not have a fixed contractual sales price.

 

A project may be de-risked as it matures and there is greater security over the credit stream, leading to additional revenue.  As cash receipts grow closer, the discount made at the point of initial revenue recognition also unwinds however this is recognised as interest income.
