COMMENTARY
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The abridged condensed consolidated results for the year ended 28 February 2019 (“the year”) have been prepared in accordance
with the recognition and measurement requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), the disclosure and
presentation requirements of IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting
Practices Committee, the Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council, the Listings
Requirements of the JSE Limited and the Companies Act, 2008 (Act 71 of 2008), as amended. The accounting policies and method
of computation applied in preparation of these abridged condensed consolidated results are in accordance with IFRS and are
consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2018 with the exception of the
adoption of IFRS 9: Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”).
The Group has adopted IFRS 9 with a date of application of 1 March 2018. IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39: Financial Instruments: Recognition
and Measurement. It makes major changes to the previous guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets
and introduces an “expected credit loss” model for the impairment of financial assets. There have been no changes to the
classification and measurement of the financial instruments in the Group with the application of IFRS 9 and there was no material
impact on the financial statements.
There were no other new revised standards adopted that have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
This abridged report is extracted from audited financial information but is not itself audited. The board of directors of PSV
(“the Board”) takes full responsibility for the preparation of the abridged report and that the financial information has been
correctly extracted from the underlying financial statements.
The annual financial statements have been prepared under the supervision of the Financial Director, Roger Pitt CA(SA), and have
been audited by the Groups’ auditors, HLB CMA South Africa Inc., whose unmodified audit report is available for inspection at the
registered office of the Company.
Since the publication of the reviewed provisional condensed consolidated results for the year ended 28 February 2019 (“Reviewed
Results”), changes to the financial statements were required as a result from the audit. These changes, which related to the 2019
figures, are set out below:
The impairment of a group loan processed prior to the release of the Reviewed Results was incorrectly processed. The correction
of this entry resulted in:
o a reclassification of R2 422 749 between operating expenses and cost of sales;
o an adjustment of R678 370 to deferred tax; and
o and the resultant changes to profit, EPS, HEPS, deferred tax asset, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables,
reserves and cash flow.
NATURE OF BUSINESS
PSV is an industrial engineering holding company comprising two operating business segments namely:
• Industrial Supplies (including steel, piping, industrial tools and consumable supplies); and
• Specialised Services (including comprehensive cryogenic and gas systems and the supply and installation of geosynthetic linings).
INTRODUCTION
The Group has endured an extremely challenging 12 months with substantial financial losses against a background of extremely
difficult trading conditions and the departure of previous executive management. Newly appointed management is making
encouraging strides toward delivering a turnaround.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Despite strong revenue (+59%) and overall margin (+33%) growth in Industrial Supplies driven primarily by exports volume, the
Group was unable to convert this increase into overall profitability. Specialised Services fared poorly as the general economy
weighed heavily on the gas sector, its primary customer base. Poor execution and structural sector changes in geosynthetic lining
material supply and installation resulted in substantial losses. Turbo Agencies and Engineered Linings meet the requirements
contained in IFRS 5 to be treated as a disposal group and are accounted for as discontinued operations.
Profit after tax from continued operations was R1.3 million (2018: loss after tax of R0.75 million). Engineered Linings has been
defined as a disposal group in terms of IFRS 5 and has been reclassified as a discontinued operation. This has necessitated a
reclassification of the 2018 comparatives. Headline loss per share was 7.65 cents per share ("cps") (2018: Headline loss per share
of 0.23 cps).
Total cash flow from operating activities remained negative at R20.3 million (2018: R2.2 million). The Company's net cash increased
resulting in a reduced net overdraft of R13.7 million compared to R16.8 million overdraft in the previous year. This improvement
was largely due the issue of shares for cash to Regis Holdings Limited (“Regis”) which resulted in a cash inflow of R24.4 million.
As the goodwill in the statement of financial position relates to the Omnirapid cash generating unit, no impairment was considered
necessary.
The Company's statement of financial position remained constant due to the offset of the losses for the year and the issue of
shares to Regis.
OPERATIONAL REVIEW
Industrial Supplies
This segment contributed 74% (2018: 49%) to the Group’s consolidated reportable segment revenue, at an average gross profit
margin of 13.4% (2018: 17.2%).
The business continues to perform well and generates consistent cash flows which, against the general economic background and
sector dynamics is a credit to management. Relentless focus on execution, pricing and customer relationship management has,
and continues, to deliver strong volume growth and an expansion in the customer base. Despite a negative percentage contraction
in the gross margin (-3.8%), the strong volume growth has driven overall margin growth (+33%).
Turbo Agencies has been classified as discontinued operation.
Specialised Services
Specialised Services contributed 26% (2018: 51%) to the Group’s consolidated reportable segment revenue at an average gross
profit margin of 7.3% (2018: 23.0%).
The cryogenic vessel manufacturing business was impacted negatively by the economy generally and the resultant constrained
capex spend across the sector. The business operated at well below capacity and was unable to adjust its fixed and variable costs
sufficiently to compensate for the slowdown. Management pivoted toward the development and design of key intellectual
property elements which will serve it well going forward.
The supply and installation of geosynthetic linings business has been the key source of poor historical financial performance of
the Group. Geosynthetic linings have become a commoditised material with very low margins and the attached installation
industry is very fragmented. The legacy premise that substantial installation margins are available on large scale, and often, foreign
projects, was myopic in that it failed to account for the inherent supply chain and execution risks in such projects. The pressure
which this has exerted on an under-capitalised balance sheet has been problematic. The business has been classified as a
discontinued operation.
DIVIDENDS
No dividends were declared or proposed. The Board reviews the dividend policy annually.
CHANGES TO THE BOARD
The following changes to the Board occurred during the period under review.
Ms Lerato Mosiah resigned as an independent non-executive director with effect from 2 October 2018.
Mr Anthony de la Rue, who was appointed as Chairman of the Board, stepped down as Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee
and as Chairman of the Remuneration Committee with effect from 3 October 2018.
Mr Eric Ratshikhopha, who was appointed as Chairman of the Social and Ethics Committee, stepped down as Chairman of the
Board with effect from 3 October 2018.
Mr Roger Pitt was appointed as an independent non-executive director of the Board and Chairman of the Audit and Risk
Committee with effect from 3 October 2018.
Mr Carlos Fernandes was appointed as a non-executive director of the Board and Chairman of the Remuneration Committee with
effect from 3 October 2018.
Mr Abilio da Silva resigned as Chief Executive Officer with effect from 21 November 2018.
Mr Carlos Fernandes was appointed as Interim Chief Executive Officer with effect from 22 November 2018.
Mr Tony Dreisenstock resigned as Chief Financial Officer with effect from 1 February 2019.
Mr Ian Schmidt, who was appointed as Chief Financial Officer with effect from 1 February 2019, resigned with effect from 31 March
2019.
Mr Roger Pitt was appointed as Chief Financial Officer with effect from 31 March 2019, stepping down as an independent non-
executive director at the same date.
Mr Douglas Lorimer (“Doug”) was appointed as an independent non-executive director of the Board and Chairman of the Audit
and Risk Committee with effect from 17 May 2019. Doug has subsequently also been appointed as Chairman of the Remuneration
Committee with effect from 23 May 2019.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to the financial year-end on or about 20 March 2019, the Group entered into a loan agreement with Regis, in terms
of which, Regis loaned the business USD365 000 at US prime rate (currently 5.5%). The Company further entered into a loan
agreement with a subsidiary of Regis for a R9 million facility at a rate of SA prime plus 12.5% (currently 22.75%) on the utilised
portion and 5% on the unutilised portion.
GOING CONCERN
The Directors have made an assessment of the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to continue as going concerns.
Notwithstanding that the Group has made significant losses in the current financial year, the Board is confident that the Group
will continue as a going concern for the following reasons:
- we continue to enjoy the support of our shareholders and are pursuing a capital raising transaction;
- the Company has raised a loan from Regis for USD365 000 to support the working capital of the business;
- the Company has signed a further loan agreement with a subsidiary of Regis for an additional R9 million in order to fund
specific projects within the Group which have been identified as part of the turnaround process;
- the disposal of Turbo Agencies Botswana is nearing finalisation;
- the potential sale of Engineered Linings a loss-making operation will remove a cash drain on the business; and
- the Group is actively progressing its B-BBEE strategy which is expected to open up further opportunities for growth.
PROSPECTS
Industrial Supplies
Our focus is to broaden and grow the strong trading base while simultaneously evolving the operating and control environment.
Our priorities are responsible and appropriately leveraged trading, robust treasury management, succession and key account
development. This business delivers strong operational synergies with the cryogenics business.
Specialised Services
Against a backdrop of low growth in traditional industrial gas supply, manufacturing opportunities which are driven by ageing local
gas company fleets on both road tankers and static or standing vessels, exist for PSV.
Newer specification road tankers deliver a much greater cost efficiency via improved payloads and chassis weight. The business
has key elements of intellectual property pertaining to enhanced cost efficiencies and Africa road operating environment
specificities. Gas is typically low margin and savings in supply chain are hugely relevant to the gas companies. Across the vessel
manufacturing universe there are substantial supply constraints, manifested in long lead times on imported tankers.
Static tanks tend to have an element of standardised manufacturing and are generally produced to overall demand with specific
manufacturing slots rather than to specific orders, which materialise through marketing the continuity of the approach. To this
end, the business needs to continue to operate in the same manner, with efficient utilisation of the manufacturing bay with near
standard elements of manufacturing, thereby offering clients the opportunity to book production slots over time. This, together
with more fundamental elements such health and safety, certification and supplier accreditation, are key focus areas for the
division. The key benefits of this approach are lower unit costs and much reduced lead times.
Investing into these tactical advantages across road tankers and static tanks will, we believe, ultimately produce a sustainable
strategic advantage over importation.
The business is also one of only two local Vaporisers manufacturers. This component of the business has operated near to capacity
over recent periods, and we expect this to continue. Import replacement is unlikely due to the spatial elements of the design.
Other non-manufacturing elements of the business, such as the supply of specialised OEM cryogenic equipment and valves, and
maintenance exist as a value-add to customers and warrant higher margins than currently being achieved.
The applications bay, which focuses on specialised cryogenic engineering projects, typically for the Food and Beverage industry, is
an area of the business which is also under developed before its potential customer base.
