Overview - financial summary H1 FY23

·      Results in line with management's expectations - H1 FY23 has seen
growth on H1 FY22, in both constant and actual currency ('FX') rates, despite
the economic uncertainty and exit from Omicron at the start of FY23. FX
benefited revenue growth by circa +9%

·      As anticipated, there was a switch back to in-person delivery
after COVID, and this meant that Digitally-enabled revenues decreased 7% on
prior year:

o  In-person deliveries grew from 4% in H1 FY22 to 15% of delivery revenue in
H1 FY23. MindGym's business model can flex between in-person and Digital
delivery as needed

o  Digitally-enabled revenues represented 71% of total revenue (H1 FY22: 84%)

o  On demand digital product revenues grew 3% to £2.8m (H1 FY22: £2.7m),
representing 11% of total revenue (H1 FY22:11%)

·      Repeat revenue(3) remained strong at 87% of Group revenue

·      Gross margin increased by 1.6 percentage points from H1 FY22 to
87.5% due to the higher mix of Design and Advisory ('D&A') revenues where
related costs are included within administrative expenses

·      Staff costs have increased by 6% to £17.2m, largely reflecting
wage inflation

·      Profit before tax of £0.6m (H1 FY22: £17k) is in line with
Board expectations. This includes an incremental £0.5m of amortisation
related to Performa, which had not commenced in H1 FY22

·      Cash balance at 30 September 2022 of  £4.5m (31 March 2022:
£10.0m). The movement includes:

o  £2.2m of capital investments

o  £1.6m decrease in trade and other payables, reflecting primarily the
impact of bonus and commission timings

o  a £3.5m increase in trade and other receivables; we expect much of this
receivables increase to unwind in H2 FY23, resulting in an improvement in cash
conversion and cash position

·      The Group retains a £10m debt facility (£6m RCF, £4m
accordion) which matures after three years, providing additional flexibility
if required.  The facility remains undrawn as at 2 December 2022

·      The Board continues to prioritise investment for growth in
digital over the coming years, and therefore no interim dividend will be paid
for the period ended 30 September 2022. Once the Board has greater clarity on
the performance of its digital investments, and of the broader economic
outlook, we will revisit our dividend policy

 

Overview - operational summary H1 FY23

 

New client framework agreements(4)

o  Secured a number of significant framework agreements during H1 FY23,
including our largest ever, with a global energy company, with revenues
forecast to be in excess of £10m over the next 24 months

o  Other framework agreements, each between £1m-£3m, are also expected to
drive revenues in H2 FY23 and FY24

 

Accelerated innovation

o  Continued strategy of investing in innovation to drive growth through
market-leading research and products

o  The Leadership Point of View ('POV') was launched at the end of FY22, with
the related whitepaper launched in H1 FY23.

o  Our new Wellbeing POV ('Wellworking') was launched during H1 FY23; the
whitepaper will be published in Q4 FY23, when we also be launching five new
Wellworking live and eWorkout products

o  The 'Precision Coaching' whitepaper (MindGym's proprietary coaching
methodology), is being launched in January 2023, and will drive interest in
Performa, MindGym's digital 1:1 coaching SAAS platform.

 

Digital development

o  Performa continues to receive positive early feedback

o  Continued enhancements to the Performa platform user experience and the
portfolio of c.100 eWorkouts

o  Beta trials of the new Organisational Diagnostics solution start in H2
FY23 which covers culture, DEI, wellbeing and leadership

 

(3)Repeat revenue is defined as revenue from clients that have purchased
products and services in one or more of the previous three years.

(4) MindGym defines framework agreements as client projects, normally
involving substantial levels of client investment over time. These often
include separate, but related, stages of work. In most scenarios, the service
provider will deliver all of the stages, but these are unlocked over the life
of the framework.

 

 

Current Trading & Outlook

 

·      MindGym's outlook for the full year remains unchanged, despite
the impact of economic headwinds, notably in the US

·      Second half growth includes the benefit of the large corporate
frameworks

 

 

Octavius Black, Chief Executive Officer of Mind Gym, said:

 

We are encouraged by our first half performance and the significant momentum
going into the second half, as a result of securing our largest ever framework
agreement. In a volatile economic environment with a tight labour market,
MindGym is increasingly well placed as the 'go to' partner to address the
talent challenges that all organisations struggle to resolve.

 

Our investment in innovation and digital continues to deliver. New
publications on leadership, coaching and wellbeing will set the agenda and
equip our clients to invest in ways that transform their business in half the
time and for a fraction of the cost.  Our development of the Performa
platform will build momentum for our new 1:1 coaching service in FY24, and our
new organisational diagnostics solution, currently in beta trials, which
furthers our objective to be the primary strategic partner providing an end-to
end service for our clients.

Half Yearly report

 

Business overview

 

Revenues in H1 FY23 increased 11% on H1 FY22, reflecting underlying growth and
the benefit of currency (FX) tailwinds. Whilst the US grew at 20% in the
period, EMEA revenues have declined by 2% although this reflects some EMEA
managed sales which were delivered, and therefore reported, in the US. MindGym
works with 64% of the FTSE 100 and 57% of the S&P100.

 

Repeat revenue remained robust at 87%, in line with FY22 full year, slightly
down on H1 FY22 (92%).

MindGym has won a number of significant framework agreements during H1 FY23,
including its largest ever in respect of a global energy company, as well as a
number of others each between £1m-£3m, which are expected to drive revenues
in H2 FY23 and through FY24

 

Revenue from the Group's top 25 clients contributed 40% of revenue which is
down from the 47% seen for the same period in FY22, reflecting a broadening of
our client base.

 

Digitally-enabled revenue decreased 7% on prior year levels to £18.9m, (H1
FY22: £20.3m) to represent 71% of total revenue (H1 FY22: 84%), driven by the
anticipated growth of in-person deliveries which grew from 4% in H1 FY22 to
15% of delivery revenue in H1 FY23. MindGym's business model can flex between
in-person and Digital delivery as needed. Existing on demand digital product
revenue grew by 3% to £2.8m (H1 FY22: £2.7m) to represent 11% of total
revenue (H1 FY22: 11%).

 

We continue to invest for growth through accelerated innovation and digital
development:

·      Our investment since FY20 has increased the pace of our
innovation. The Leadership POV has been successfully launched, and Wellbeing
("Wellworking") was launched in H1 FY23, with significant interest from our
clients. The related whitepaper on Wellbeing ("Wellworking") and five new live
products and eWorkouts on this PoV will be launched in Q4 FY23

 

·      The 'Precision Coaching' whitepaper (MindGym's proprietary
coaching methodology), which will drive interest in Performa, MindGym's
digital 1:1 coaching SAAS platform, is being launched in January 2023

 

·      Performa continues to receive positive early feedback and we
anticipate momentum building over the next 12-24 months. We will also launch a
new organisational diagnostics solution for culture, DEI, wellbeing and
leadership, with Beta trials starting in H2 FY23; and enhancements to the
eWorkouts solutions in the second half of this financial year

 

 

Financial Performance

 

Revenue in H1 FY23 increased 11% (2% on a constant currency basis) on H1 FY22
to £26.8m (H1 FY22: £24.1m):

 

·      In EMEA, revenue decreased by 2% to £10.1m (H1 FY22: £10.3m),
representing 38% of total revenue. EMEA revenues have been reduced by EMEA
managed sales which were delivered, and therefore reported, in the US. Revenue
from the top 25 clients decreased to 59% of regional revenue (H1 FY22: 66%),
reflecting the broadening of the client base

 

·      In the US, revenue increased by 20% (4% on a constant currency
basis) to £16.7m (H1 FY22: £13.9m), representing 62% of total revenue.
Revenue from the top 25 clients was broadly flat at 54% of regional revenue
(H1 FY22: 55%)

 

Revenue from digital products in H1 FY23 was £2.8m (H1 FY22: £2.7m),
representing 11% of total revenue (H1 FY22: 11%). Digitally-enabled revenue
(including workouts delivered virtually) decreased by 7% to £18.9m (H1 FY22:
£20.3m), representing 71% of total revenue (H1 FY22: 84%), due to some switch
back to in-person deliveries after COVID.

 

Gross profits margins at 87.5% are up 1.6 percentage points up on prior year.
This largely reflects the growth of D&A work in the period, in part
supporting the significant framework agreements that are being won; this will
result in significant revenues over H2 FY23 and FY24. Whilst we have seen cost
of sales increases driven by the increased share of in-person delivery, these
are more than offset (in absolute terms) by the higher prices of in-person
delivery.

 

Overheads of £22.7m in the period increased by 10% (H1 FY22: £20.6m),
reflecting wage inflation and the carryover of headcount increases in FY22
with salary costs increasing 6% and average headcount increasing 2% to 324 (H1
FY22: 319). The price increases implemented in the year, coupled with
operational efficiencies, have more than offset the wage inflation we have
seen. Share based payments were £28k in the period (H1 FY22: £0.3m),
impacted by the reversal of historic charges due to attrition. Awards to
management, including relevant performance conditions, were granted in July
2022.

 

Profit before tax in the period was £0.6m (H1 FY22: £17k); this includes an
incremental £0.5m of amortisation related to Performa, which had not
commenced in H1 FY22.

 

Basic earnings per share in the period were 0.85 pence (H1 FY22: loss of -0.01
pence). Diluted earnings per share were 0.84 pence (H1 FY22: -0.01 pence).

 

The Group continued to invest in its new digital products with £2.1m (H1
FY22: £2.4m) capitalised during the period, which meets the definition of
development costs under IAS 38, "Intangible assets". Total intangible assets
were valued at £9.8m at 31 September 2022. A further £0.1m was capitalised
in tangible assets in the period relating to IT equipment and office fixtures
and fittings.

 

The balance sheet remains secure with no bank debt; cash at bank at 30
September was £4.5m, a reduction of £5.5m from the year-end balance at 31
March 2022 of £10.0m. This was due predominantly to £2.2m capital
expenditure, a £1.6m decrease in trade and other payables related to the
impact of bonus/commission timings, and a £3.5m increase in trade and other
receivables; we expect much of this receivables increase to unwind in H2 FY23,
resulting in an improvement in cash conversion and cash position. Overdue debt
has reduced to 9% of trade debtors from 10% in H1 FY22.

 

The Group retains a £10m debt facility (£6m RCF, £4m accordion) which
matures after three years, providing additional flexibility if required.  The
facility remains undrawn as at 2 December 2022.

 

Overall net assets increased by £1.7m to £21.3m in the six months to 30
September 2022.

 

 

Dividend

 

The Board continues to prioritise investment for growth over the coming years,
and therefore no interim dividend will be paid for the period ended 30
September 2022. The dividend policy is reviewed annually.

 

 

Outlook

 

MindGym's outlook for the full year remains unchanged, despite the impact of
economic headwinds, notably in the US.

 

Second half growth includes the benefit of large corporate frameworks.

MIND GYM PLC    NOTES TO THE GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.   General information

Mind Gym plc ("the Company") is a public limited company incorporated in
England & Wales and its ordinary shares are traded on the Alternative
Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange ("AIM"). The address of the
registered office is 160 Kensington High Street, London W8 7RG. The group
consists of Mind Gym plc and its subsidiaries, Mind Gym (USA) Inc., Mind Gym
Performance (Asia) Pte. Ltd and Mind Gym (Canada) Inc. (together "the Group").

 

The principal activity of the Group is to apply behavioural science to
transform the performance of companies and the lives of the people who work in
them. The Group does this primarily through research, strategic advice,
management and employee development, employee communication, and related
services.

 

2.   Basis of preparation

The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the AIM Rules for Companies. As permitted, the
Company has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 "Interim Financial Statements" in
preparing this interim financial information. The condensed interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements
for the year ended 31 March 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European
Union, including interpretations issued by the International Financial
Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"), and with the Companies Act 2006
applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The unaudited interim financial
information does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of the
Companies Act 2006. This interim report, which has neither been audited nor
reviewed by independent auditors, was approved by the board of directors on 1
December 2022.

 

Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022 were approved by the Board
of Directors on 9 June 2022 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The
report of the auditors on those accounts was unqualified, did not contain an
emphasis of matter paragraph and did not contain any statement under Section
498 of the Companies Act 2006.

 

The interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis
under the historical cost convention.

 

The interim financial statements are presented in pounds sterling. All values
are rounded to £1,000 except where otherwise indicated.

 

The accounting policies used in preparing the interim results are the same as
those applied to the latest audited annual financial statements.

 

3.   Segmental analysis

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal
reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, who is responsible
for allocating resources and assessing performance of the business. The chief
operating decision maker has been identified as the Board. The Group has two
operating segments: EMEA (comprising the United Kingdom and Singapore) and
America (comprising the United States and Canada).

Both segments derive their revenue from a single business activity, the
provision of human capital and business improvement solutions.

The Group's business is not highly seasonal and the Group's customer base is
diversified with no individually significant customer.

Share Option Plan ("LTIP"). The options granted to date vest subject only to

revenue, adjusted earnings per share and total shareholder return.

 

The awards granted in the six months to 30 September 2022 are subject to
performance conditions based on revenues and EBITDA. Some awards granted
during this time period are time bound only.
