for 6 Months ended 28 February 2018
Cambria Africa PLC (AIM:CMB) ("Cambria" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its interim results for the six months ended 28 February 2018 (the "Period"). A copy of this announcement is available on the Company's website (www.cambriaafrica.com). This announcement follows the FY 2017 results and trading update published on 27 February 2018.
The Results and their comparatives have been restated to treat the closure of Payserv Zambia as discontinued operations. Therefore, Payserv Zambia's loss of $121,000 has been excluded from continuing operations for the same period in 2017.
Results Highlights for the Period:
The company has achieved significant improvements in profitability and EBITDA as a result of improved performance, the end of litigation expenses, and costs related to discontinued operations which were expensed in FY 2017.
*All results for FY 2017 are restated to exclude losses attributable to the discontinued operations of Payserv Zambia:

Other notable events:
Notable events during the Period include:
Settlement of Consilium Dispute in October 2017.
· Both parties agreed to settle all claims against each other;
· Cambria paid Consilium $223,000 ("the Settlement Amount");
· The security for costs previously lodged was released back to Cambria;
· All related legal costs, including the Settlement Amount have already been included in the financial results of FY 2017 with no roll-over to the Period ended 28 February 2018.
Appointment of Sibert Dube as Payserv Zimbabwe CEO.
Mr. Dube has identified the following areas of growth for Cambria's largest subsidiary by revenue and profit:
· Penetrating the consumer market where Payserv's market share is minimal compared to its commanding position (90% market share) in the corporate trade and salary payments;
· Capitalising on distributed ledger and other leading technologies to enhance its services
· Providing facilitation services to major players for distribution of inward international remittances;
· Expanding Tradanet's payroll-based loan processing to also include insurance sales and loan origination.
Prospects
The Company believes that new dispensation in Zimbabwe following the inauguration of President Emmerson Mnangagwa will result in a favourable business and investment climate. President Mnangagwa has announced and taken action on new business-friendly policies which are intended to attract investment, protect investment, and bring with it international balance of payments support. These developments vindicate Cambria's focus on Zimbabwe as providing the best investment opportunities and returns in the region.

Chief Executive's Report
Introduction:
I am pleased to report on Cambria's strong performance over the 6 months ended 28 February 2018. These results not only reflect the end of litigation expenses and discontinuing of unprofitable operations in Zambia, they are also testament to the considerable time, effort and resources invested since Cambria's management change in August 2015. I have repeatedly expressed my conviction that for Cambria, "Zimbabwe provides the best regional opportunity for successful investment and growth in the short to medium term." The Results are testimony to the soundness of our investment philosophy.
· EBITDA from continuing operations more than doubled to $1.67 million while PBT increased by $1.07 million to $1.44 million from $368,000 for the same period in 2017.
· Cambria achieved a record after-tax profit of $1.10 million - a 14-fold increase from $76,000 from continuing operations in 2017. Discontinued operations had no impact on interim results.
· The Consilium dispute was settled in October 2017 allowing more productive allocation of management resources. All related costs have been included in the FY 2017 results with no associated costs in this Period.
· Central costs for the Period were more than halved to $56,000 from $118,000 for the same period in 2017. Central costs were 1.23% of revenues.
· Debt levels, interest expense, shareholder equity & cash flows continued to show significant improvement during the Period.

Payserv's consolidated EBITDA increased by 17% for the six months ended 28 February 2018 to $1.55 million from $1.32 million compared to the same period in 2017. Profit before tax increased by 18% to $1.44 million from $1.22 million and consolidated PAT increased by 19% to $1.11 million from $926,000 in 2017. This was achieved on the back of a 16% increase in revenues to $3.66 million from $3.14 million. All these figures exclude the results of the discontinued operations of Payserv Zambia.
Overheads represent 49% of Revenues (52% in 2017). The company is identifying opportunities to improve profitability by reducing overheads and investing the savings in improving its technology.
Paynet Zimbabwe
Paynet Zimbabwe is actively present in, transacting with and contributing to, the profitability of all financial institutions in Zimbabwe.
Whilst 80% of Paynet Zimbabwe's revenue growth has historically been from corporate clients, where Paynet has an estimated market share of 90 - 95%, significant growth opportunities are being targeted from new initiatives. These include:
· Leveraging our technology and position of trust with financial institutions into the consumer market where Paynet's market share is minimal;
· Exploring distributed ledger technologies to enhance transaction security and reduce transaction costs;
· Developing non-transactional EDI products for the Insurance and Securities Industries;
· Establishing our foothold as a last-mile service provider to multiple international remittance operations by improving their distribution channels and value addition;
· Establishing stronger cost controls on Paynet overheads to maximise the impact of increases in transaction volume and minimise the impact of possible reversals in transaction volume as a result of competition, economic downturns, or a cut in public sector employment;
· Increasing revenues by rationalising transaction pricing which remains among the lowest in the industry, despite the commanding market position in our sector.
Payserv Zambia operations discontinued
Payserv Zambia was discontinued in FY 2017. In line with International Financial Reporting Standards, Payserv Zambia's performance for the Period ended 28 February 2017 is reflected separately as a "discontinued operation" and excluded from the balance of Payserv's & Cambria's continuing operations. This resulted in showing a profit from continuing operations for the six months ended 28 February 2017 instead of a small loss. Payserv Zambia had no impact on the Results for the Period.
Autopay Zimbabwe
We continue to believe that Autopay is not achieving its full potential in the market. Nevertheless, and despite a lack of marketing and innovation, the division has maintained profitability.
This division continues to be plagued by declining private sector employment and increasing numbers of contract workers paid through wallets. The segments of Autopay consist of 1) full service Payroll Bureau; 2) Software and licensing to major corporates and 3) Online SME payroll process.
Management is continuing the process of realigning Autopay's strategy to increase its penetration into the SME market where it has historically been poorly represented, leveraging its integral relations with Paynet's payment services and Tradanet's loan services, and the possible acquisition and development of its supporting software architecture.
Tradanet
Tradanet's recovery in loan volumes continued by a modest 5% to $63.3 million during the Period mainly as a result of the reinstatement of Credit Partners and the introduction of other new products, particularly Flexicredit, a card based loan product, which increased 924% as it replaced CPS loan product (a straight line of credit) which dropped by 82%. Credit partners' loans which were reinstated by CABS in 2017, have now grown to about 11% of total advances.
Tradanet also expects to increase its revenues through other new products it has received or is seeking approval from CABS:
· Flexicredit Hybrid - a product directed at employees of larger publicly held corporates which can be evaluated by reliance on publicly disclosed information;
· Insurance Premium Financing;
· Automobile ownership financing.

Millchem has recorded an after-tax profit during the 6 months ended 28 February 2018, its first profit in more than four years. This result was helped in no small part by the cooperation of our bankers who provided the needed remittances to import raw materials.
· $899,000 in revenues reduced by 34% to achieve a more profitable product mix,
· 31% gross profit margin - a nearly 2-fold increase from 16% in 2017,
· $248,000 turnaround in EBITDA to $110,000 from a loss of $138,000,
· $254,000 turnaround in PAT to $102,000 from a loss of $152,000,
· $191,000 reduction (53%) in administrative expenses from $358,000 to $167,000.
Consilium Dispute
The Consilium Dispute was settled during the Period, in October 2017. However, all the settlement and legal costs directly associated with the dispute were accounted for in FY 2017. As this was a full and final settlement, Cambria did not during the Period, and will not be incurring any further costs in relation to this matter in FY 2018. With the distraction of a major legal dispute and associated expenses behind us, we can direct our exclusive focus on investing in the "new Zimbabwe" by exploring organic and acquisitive opportunities.
Board of Directors and Compensation
Cambria's Directors have supported my role as CEO providing direction and management support without compensation since my appointment in July 2015. As the ultimate beneficiary of over 66% of Cambria shares, I continue to serve without compensation. It is my intention that we should begin compensating those who have dedicated themselves with extraordinary conviction to Cambria. Proposals for the use of Cambria shares as compensation are being finalised and will be announced in due course.
I expect to continue serving the Company without compensation in FY 2018.
Intended VAL Loan Conversion and Open Offer
Cambria and VAL have entered into discussions regarding the intended conversion by VAL of a substantial portion of its loans into Cambria ordinary shares. It is further intended that an Open Offer will be extended to shareholders once any such conversion is finalised to afford them the right to match any such conversion on the same terms and conditions in proportion to their shareholding. The Open Offer will also allow shareholders of record to apply for unallocated shares over and above their own allocation. An appropriate announcement will be made in due course as soon as the related terms have been finalised.
