Harvard International plc (AIM: HAR)

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 September 2011

Harvard International plc ("Harvard", "the Company" or "the Group") is a distributor of consumer electronic goods in the UK and Australia

KEY POINTS

   --      First half of 2011/12 performance is in line with the Board's expectations 

-- Consumer confidence and spending remain depressed in both the UK and Australia. Demand for Consumer Electronic (CE) products has fallen by more than 20% when compared with the same period last year

-- Operating profit for the first half of GBP0.3m (2010: loss GBP0.6m) benefiting from increased sales of Digital Television Recorders (DTRs) and Set Top Boxes (STBs)

-- Turnover was significantly impacted by the planned strategic exit from high volume, low margin, product categories such as TV's in the UK. Sales down to GBP23.1m (2010: GBP30.1m). Gross margin rose to 23% (2010: 11%)

-- In the UK, DTR's launched successfully with more than 100,000 units sold this financial year

   --      Australia's results improved when compared with the weak performance in the previous year 

-- Flooding in Thailand has led to severe disruption in the global hard disk drive supply chain. This will reduce DTR production resulting in a shortage of units and higher prices. It is expected that the net effect will reduce full year operating profits by up to GBP0.5m

-- On 28 September 2011 the Board announced that it had received an approach from Chengdu Geeya Technology Co. Ltd. ("Geeya") that may or may not lead to a possible offer for Harvard. All necessary shareholder approvals have now been obtained for Geeya to proceed with the transaction, a GBP0.5m escrow deposit has been received and the Company has been told the offer remains in line with the anticipated timetable

Bridget Blow, Chairman, comments:

"We have delivered an improved performance in both the UK and Australia despite difficult market conditions. Demand for consumer electronic products is expected to remain depressed going in to 2012, however digital switch over programmes and demand for DTR products will continue to support our business model in both the UK and Australia. We continue to build on our strategy of targeting the DTR, STB and Apple accessory segments through investment in people, brands and products."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Group Performance

Against a backdrop of continued weakness in the global economy, particularly in the consumer electronics (CE) sector, we have improved profitability and remained on target with our strategic plan.

The Group reported an operating profit for the first half of the financial year of GBP0.3m (2010: loss GBP0.6m). Revenue for the period fell to GBP23.1m (2010: GBP30.1m) and Gross Margin improved to 23% (2010: 11%) reflecting our planned strategic exit from low margin, high volume products which had accounted for GBP13m of sales in the comparative period last year.

Operating profitability improved as a result of increased consumer demand for digital set top boxes (STB's) and digital television recorders (DTR's) and an improved business performance in Australia.

Flooding in Thailand has led to severe disruption in the global hard disk drive supply chain. This will reduce DTR production resulting in a shortage of units but higher prices. It is expected that the net effect will reduce full year operating results by up to GBP0.5m.

The digital switch over (DSO) timetable resulted in an increased need for working capital as short term STB inventory levels rose. Net cash at the end of the period remained ahead of target at GBP13.3m (2010: GBP15.0m).

Dividend

The Board is not proposing the distribution of a dividend at this time.

Board changes

On 30 March 2011 the Board announced the resignation of the Group's Finance Director, Colin Grimsdell, and his departure was confirmed in August.

In September the Board announced the appointment of Robert Thompson as Finance Director of the Company. Robert had been the acting interim Finance Director and was previously the Group's Head of Finance. His extensive experience and knowledge of the business will add a strong complementary skill base to the Group's senior leadership team.

Possible Offer for Harvard International plc

On 28 September 2011 Harvard announced that it had received an approach from Geeya, a Chengdu based public company admitted to trading on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in China, that may or may not lead a possible offer for Harvard. Geeya manufactures and supplies digital television network equipment and its products include a full series of digital TV products from head-end to terminal-end, including digital television support systems and consumer digital appliances, including digital set top boxes.

A further announcement was made by the Company on 10 October 2011, which was made under Rule 2.4 of the City Code, stating that it had in principle reached agreement with Geeya valuing each issued and to be issued Harvard share at 45 pence per share. It is anticipated that the offer will be made in cash and is subject to a number of pre-conditions prior to Geeya being able to announce a firm offer for the Company; including the receipt of all necessary approvals from regulatory authorities in China relating to the offer.

Geeya reserves the right to waive any of the pre-conditions, but even if all of the pre-conditions are satisfied or waived, there can be no certainty that a firm offer will be forthcoming. Geeya continues to seek the approvals from regulatory bodies in China and, following the approval by Geeya's shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting held on 24 November 2011, is now in the process of formally lodging all regulatory documentation with the regulatory bodies in China . Geeya has informed the Company that approval from the principle regulatory body, the Chinese Securities Regulatory Commission, is expected to be provided within three months from the date of the documentation being formally lodged. Every effort is being made by Harvard and Geeya to ensure that the period in which regulatory consents are obtained is as short as possible and Harvard will continue to update its shareholders as the transaction progresses.

Outlook

Demand for CE products is expected to remain depressed going in to 2012, however DSO programmes and demand for DTR products will continue to support our business model in both the UK and Australia. The flooding in Thailand is likely to impact the first half of 2012 but at this stage it is difficult to quantify. We continue to build on our strategy of targeting the DTR, STB and Apple accessory segments through investment in new products and strengthening the Group's sales and marketing capabilities. Events such as the Olympics and the roll out of new digital internet based services are expected to provide additional market support.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT

Despite CE markets having weakened further in the UK and Australia, with year on year sales in many product categories down by more than 20%, we have delivered an improved operational performance. Considerable progress continues to be made in establishing the Group's growth platform through our strategy of targeting the DTR, STB and Apple accessory segments with investment in people, brands and products. Externally we continue to examine options for further partnerships which might add value to the business.

UK Digital Media Boxes

UK STB sales have been supported by the DSO timetable and our involvement with the government's assistance scheme. The Group's strategic plan has been designed so that once the DSO programme has been completed, our new higher price point, DTR products will already have become well established supporting our future growth and development. London is the next region timetabled to switch to digital which will support sales through the final quarter of this financial year and into the first quarter of 2012/13. The UK DSO programme is expected to be completed by the end of 2012.

The DTR segment has been targeted as one with high margins and growth potential but relatively few competitors. Our current DTR product range, distributed under the Goodmans brand and retail customers' own-label brands, has continued to increase sales, helped by new products selling in excess of 100,000 units since going on sale in May. This has resulted in our accounting for a 30% market share during the period which helped support Group turnover and margins.

In August we announced the creation of our new brand, View 21, through which we will launch a market leading range of DTR's in both the UK and Australia. These are currently being developed in partnership with ANT plc and the first product releases are expected to coincide with the London DSO timetable and the 2012 Olympics.

October's severe flooding in Thailand caused major disruption to the manufacture of hard disk drives (HDD) resulting in component shortages and higher prices. CE producers globally have been affected and at present markets are volatile. We have responded quickly to the situation but have had to reduce our planned DTR output for the second half. Once the situation stabilizes, and HDD output returns to pre disruption levels, we expect output to recover to meet growing consumer demand for DTR functionality.

The integration of internet broadband platforms with digital media services continues to evolve on a global scale. Next summer's London Olympics is expected to become a catalyst for the launch of new services which will heighten consumer awareness and demand. We believe that our extensive knowledge and experience in the STB and DTR segments, together with our enhanced technological capabilities and understanding, will enable us to actively participate in this attractive market opportunity and gain market share.

Apple Accessories

Demand for Apple accessories remains relatively strong, with Apple's new product pipeline supporting sales, and the iLuv brand continues to attract broad retail interest. We have recruited a new sales and marketing team to drive performance and as a result of this investment expect to see the number of stockists expand further in the second half of the year.

Australia

In Australia, where the Group distributes a broader range of CE products, sales and profitability have improved despite depressed consumer demand. We have maintained leading market positions for STB and DAB radio products and have started to supply retailers with iLuv audio products. A significant contract with a large retailer to supply TV's also contributed to a markedly improved outcome for the period and we continue to explore opportunities to increase turnover in a market that is less competitive than the UK.

The Australian DSO programme has commenced in some rural parts of the country and will continue to roll-out towards 2013 when the major cities are due to switch to the digital signal. We have already signed agreements with some state government assistance schemes and will be well positioned to supply the broader consumer market with our newly developed DTR products.

The condensed consolidated interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the EU. It does 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 for the year ended 31 March 2011.

The information relating to the six months ended 30 September 2011 and 30 September 2010 is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts for the purposes of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 March 2011 are not the Company's statutory accounts for that financial year. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2011 were approved by the Board of Directors on 27 July 2011 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors on those accounts was unqualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and did not contain a statement under Section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with that disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 March 2011.
