CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REVIEW
Introduction
Overall, I am pleased with our first half performance. It was a tricky period
as, like many IT service providers, we were contending with a challenging
macro environment which impacted client budgets and, in certain cases, led to
changes in project scope. This resulted in revenue declining by 7% YoY.
Whilst this impacted Group revenue in the Period, I am pleased to report that
we made substantial progress on profitability, as we implemented operational
efficiencies across the business, reduced headcount, and increased
utilisation. As a result of these actions, our gross profit margin improved
substantially, up 4% to 37.1% (H1 FY23: 32.9%), with Adjusted EBITDA rising by
180% to £1.4m (H1 FY23: £0.5m), representing an Adjusted EBITDA margin of
7.3% up 4.8% from H1 FY23.
Our Sales Bookings in the Period were £12.6m, underpinned by three key client
wins with the Department of Business and Trade (£1.9m, 1 year contract),
Government Digital Service (£5.0m, 2 year contract) and Ministry of Justice
(£3.8m, 1.5 year contract). We expect there to be periods of peaks and
troughs in our Sales Bookings, as the nature, size, and timing of available
contracts varies and suits different types of providers.
In the meantime, our Contracted Backlog remains strong and provides good
contractual coverage for the remainder of FY24 and into FY25. Our cash
position at the Period end was £7.9m and, with no debt within the business
and a focus on positive free cash flow in FY25, our balance sheet looks
strong.
Strategic Market Opportunity
We remain optimistic about the digital transformation opportunity within the
UK public sector market. There is a strong commitment to the digitisation of
government, and this has been reaffirmed by the latest strategies issued by
central government, health, defence, police, and local government
organisations. We are confident that, regardless of whichever political party
forms the next Government, there remains a very real need for digitisation and
legacy application transformation across the public sector. The analysts at
TechMarketView are currently forecasting that the market will grow to £18.2b
by 2026.
Moreover, the disaggregation of large IT contracts continues to be a strong
theme across government, and we expect the response to the high-profile Post
Office Horizon IT Inquiry to reinforce this approach. Previous high-profile IT
failures have increased negative sentiment towards the 'Big IT' providers, and
this has benefited smaller, more agile, organisations such as Made Tech. This
is a trend we expect to continue.
Whilst we recognise artificial intelligence ('AI') is in the midst of a 'hype
cycle,' we expect the desire to capture AI-led benefits to play an
increasingly important role in driving the digital transformation agenda, as
government organisations have to strengthen and upgrade their digital and data
core in response.
We expect Made Tech to benefit from these strong market drivers and to see
significant growth opportunities from 2025 onwards.
Clients
We extend our gratitude to our clients for their unwavering commitment to Made
Tech. Our goal is to serve as a robust digital partner, delivering outcomes
that not only meet but exceed the needs of our clients and the citizens they
serve.
Our relationship with our clients remains exceptionally strong, which is
testament to our collaborative approach and dedication to quality. Over the
last few years, we have successfully retained all key clients, underscoring
the trust and value we bring to these partnerships and positioning the Group
well for the significant opportunities which lie ahead.
In our commitment to continually assess and enhance client satisfaction, we
have undertaken our first formal Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) exercise. The
results were highly encouraging, with Made Tech achieving a score of 8.1 out
of 10 across our client base. This score reflects our consistent delivery of
high-quality services and our clients' satisfaction with our work.
Our client portfolio is well-diversified, reducing the Group's dependency on
any single client and enhancing our financial stability. We have twelve key
clients, who each contribute more than circa £1 million per annum. Among
these, eight clients contribute over £2.5 million annually. This broad spread
of large clients not only showcases our capability to engage and deliver on
significant projects but also helps to de-risk our revenue streams.
During the Period, we welcomed a significant new government department to our
portfolio of clients. This addition is particularly exciting as we believe
this client holds the potential to become a key account over the coming years.
Our ability to attract a client of such high-calibre speaks volumes to our
reputation in the market and our team's hard work and dedication.
Frameworks
Our market access has been further strengthened in the Period through our
successful inclusion in several key government procurement frameworks. Being
part of such frameworks is essential for facilitating our engagement with key
public sector entities, enabling us to contribute more effectively to the
digital transformation initiatives across various government departments.
HMRC - DALAS Framework
We were very pleased to have secured a place on the HMRC DALAS framework.
While the initial contract opportunities have been delayed, we are optimistic
about the opportunity this presents for the years ahead.
FCA Digital Framework
We have also been awarded a place on the Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA')
Digital Framework in the Period. This allows us to engage directly with the
FCA and provides us with the opportunity to contribute to the enhancement of
digital services within the financial services sector.
MOD DIPs Framework
In a strategic collaboration, Made Tech has gained a place on the Ministry of
Defence's Defence Infrastructure Programme (DIPs) framework as a subcontractor
to a large prime contractor. This partnership enables us to contribute to
critical defence infrastructure projects, further diversifying our portfolio
and allowing us to support the nation's defence and security through digital
innovation.
Product Development and Commercialisation
During the Period, the Group achieved a significant milestone with the
official launch of its first suite of in-house developed, software products,
Housing Repairs, Housing Voids, and Evidence, marking a pivotal expansion of
our offering beyond services. By complementing our services with proprietary
products, we aim to offer a suite of comprehensive solutions which address the
specific needs of our clients. This strategic diversification enhances our
value proposition and strengthens our market position.
Furthermore, diversification and expansion into products aligns firmly with
our long-term strategy to cultivate a balanced and resilient business model.
The subscription products, launched in the Period, introduce a recurring
Software as a Service (SaaS) revenue model, characterised by its
predictability and favourable margin profile. This approach not only provides
a stable revenue stream for the Group, but it also fulfils the evolving
preference of our clients for solutions which offer continuous value and
support.
We have started to actively market these products and have already signed a
flagship client. The Company will focus on the commercialisation of these
products over the next 12-18 months.
People
The work we accomplish for our clients is a direct result of the dedication
and talent of our team at Made Tech. Our people are the backbone of our
success, driving innovation and excellence across all our projects.
We have observed a positive trend in employee satisfaction in the first half,
with our eSAT Employee engagement levels showing continuous improvement. This
upward trajectory in engagement is mirrored in our retention rates, which have
improved significantly to 87% as we concluded the Period. Such metrics not
only reflect the strength of our workplace culture but also the commitment of
our team to our collective goals.
Critically, we have managed contractor numbers with precision, maintaining
them at 5-6% throughout the Period. We expect to increase our use of
contractors in H2 FY24, as we prepare for the flexibility required around the
general election period.
The launch of our People Forum marks a significant step towards enhancing
engagement and decision-making within our team. This initiative aims to foster
a more inclusive environment, in which feedback and ideas can directly
influence our workplace policies and culture. The early successes of the
People Forum are promising, and we anticipate that it will play a crucial role
in our ongoing efforts to improve workplace satisfaction and engagement.
Our hybrid work model continues to be a cornerstone of our operational
approach, allowing team members to blend work from Made Tech offices, client
sites, and home. This flexibility supports our commitment to work-life balance
and productivity.
Leadership
Recognising the importance of experienced leadership in the profitable scaling
of our business, we are strengthening our senior team. We were delighted to
welcome Neil Elton to the Board as Chief Financial Officer and Wayne Searle as
Chief People Officer to the executive team. Neil brings a wealth of public
market and technology growth experience, while Wayne's role underscores our
commitment to prioritising our people, to ensure Made Tech is a place in which
everyone can grow, learn, and contribute to our clients' successes.
To align with our next growth phase and seize the opportunities ahead, we have
implemented several changes within our sales leadership. New appointments have
been made, with more set to join in H2. These strategic changes are designed
to strengthen our sales capabilities, ensuring we are well-positioned to meet
the demands of our expanding market presence and to continue providing
exceptional service to our clients.
Summary and Outlook
We expect to see continued improvements in margins and cash flow in H2 FY24,
aligning with our strategic focus on operational efficiency and financial
health, and are comfortably on track to meet our FY24 profit expectations,
albeit on slightly reduced revenue expectations.
The upcoming general election undoubtedly introduces a measure of uncertainty,
with potential slowdowns in new contract acquisitions likely, as clients
navigate the changing political landscape. However, we have good visibility
for the remainder of the current financial year and expect the vast majority
of our existing client contracts, being critical to the operation of
government, to continue unaffected.
Entering FY25, we project that approximately 90% of our revenue will be
secured from our Contracted Backlog and the renewal of ongoing contracts.
While we remain cautious about the potential impact of the election, Made Tech
is strategically positioned to capture emerging opportunities. Our focus
remains on driving year-on-year improvements in profitability and
transitioning towards generating positive free cash flow in the next fiscal
year.

Chief Executive Officer
CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER'S REVIEW
The unaudited half year results for the six months ended 30 November 2023 are
in line with management's expectations and show strong growth in profitability
and margins.
H1 2024 H1 2023 Change
Revenue £19.1m £20.6m -7%
Adjusted EBITDA £1.4m £0.5m +180%
Operating Loss (£1.1m) (£1.7m) +36%
Adjusted Profit after tax £1.3m £0.9m +44%
Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share (pence) (0.62) (1.12)
Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share (pence) 0.18 (0.05)
Revenue
Revenue for the Period of £19.1m (H1 FY23: £20.6m) was 7% down compared to
the same period in the prior year. A number of factors contributed to this
performance, including a lower-than-normal order book in certain parts of the
business and some client delays.
Sales bookings of £12.6m in the Period (H1 FY23: £32.6m) were 61% down
against strong prior year comparatives. Those strong sales bookings in prior
periods means that the Contracted Backlog, representing the value of
contracted revenue that has yet to be recognised, increased from £47.8m at
the end of H1 FY23 to £61.3m at the end of H1 FY24. This healthy order book
positions the Group well for the period ahead.
Gross Profit and Adjusted EBITDA
Gross Margin improved substantially during the Period to 37.1% from 32.9% in
H1 FY23. Adjusted EBITDA of £1.4m and margin of 7.3% in the first half was
also significantly ahead of H1 FY23 (EBITDA of £0.5m; 2.5% margin). Adjusted
EBITDA represents operating profit before depreciation, amortisation,
impairment of intangible assets, share-based payment charges and exceptional
items. An operating loss of £1.1m represents a 36% improvement on the same
period last year (H1 FY23: £1.7m).
Total headcount, including contractors, reduced to 388 people (H1 FY23: 484).
Over the past year, we have reduced our headcount, and improved our capacity
management and reporting processes, with the goal of optimising utilisation.
These initiatives have enabled us to improve productivity and better
capitalise on available resources, ultimately strengthening our margins,
whilst at the same time increasing investments in commercial resources to help
drive top line growth. Although we are pleased with the progress we have
already made in strengthening our margins, this remains an ongoing process and
we continue to see further opportunities to optimise our processes and
resourcing.
Share-based payments
The share-based payments charge for the Period under IFRS2 'Share-based
payments' was £0.5m (H1 FY23: £1.5m). This charge related to the awards made
under the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) and the Group Restricted Share Plan
('RSP'). The primary contributor to the reduction in the like-for-like charge
was the waiver of options by the CEO and COO in February 2023. As we continue
to invest in the senior management team, the Board expects the share-based
payments charge to increase in future periods.
Exceptional costs
Administrative costs include £0.3m of exceptional costs (H1 FY23: £0.5m)
associated with targeted integration and restructuring actions taken in the
first six months of this financial year. An impairment charge of £0.9m (H1
FY23: nil) relates to intangible assets associated with the creation of an
apprenticeship academy, developed alongside government departments including
the HMRC. Although the IP will continue to be used by the business, the Board
does not now view this as being a core revenue generating offering.
Earnings per Share ('EPS')
Adjusted diluted EPS increased to 0.18 pence (H1 FY23: loss of 0.05 pence),
driven primarily by the increase in adjusted EBITDA. This was partially offset
by the higher number of weighted average number of diluted shares.
On a statutory basis, basic and diluted EPS reduced to a loss of 0.62 pence
(H1 FY23: loss of 1.12 pence).
Capital Allocation, funding priorities and dividend
On admission to AIM in September 2021, the Group stated that its intention was
to make dividend payments. In the 2023 Annual Report we confirmed that we
would review the policy. The Board believes that the opportunities ahead of us
are significant and sees the government's increasing spend in digital as a
long-term trend. The Board has therefore resolved that the Company will
continue to prioritise investment in capital growth and, therefore, does not
recommend the payment of an interim dividend. The Board will continue to keep
this policy under review.
Balance Sheet
The Group is debt free and has a strong balance sheet with £7.9m net cash at
30 November 2023 (31 May 2023: £8.5m; 30 November 2022: £9.0m). Debtor days
have increased from 37 (H1 FY23) to 45 primarily as a result of client-side
delays in processing payments; management continues to work with clients to
resolve this.
The Group continues to develop new product IP, targeting local government
software applications that will help to substantially increase client
productivity. Made Tech has launched three new products to market over the
past year. Capitalised investment in new product reduced from £1.3m in H1
FY23 to £1.0m in H1 FY24, as the focus moved to the commercial rollout.
