Business Performance: During the period each of the group's trading entities reported profits before group overheads. The profit generated by the trading operations amounted to approximately $900k with the parent cost structure incurring $620k of costs resulting in a group profit of $288k for the six months. Geneva Financial Services (Geneva), which is responsible for the "new business lending" experienced good lending growth during the period and delivered a $0.5m profit before group overheads. Quest Insurance Group Limited's (Quest) produced a $0.2m profit before group overheads. Stellar Collections (Stellar) which holds the residual old ledgers and old business assets, produced a profit of $200k before group overheads Pacific Rise Limited (PRL) holds an investment in regional medical property produced a $35k profit before group overheads. Balance Sheet: The settlement of the rights issue during the period improved the company's equity to total assets ratio to 33.1% Operating Costs: The group's operating costs compared to the same period last year decreased by $700k (20%). Rights Issue During the period the Group raised an additional $6.1m of new equity via a rights issue during May 2014. A total of $0.6m of this was taken up by public shareholders and the remaining $5.5m was taken up by Federal Pacific Group (Fedpac), under their underwrite agreement with the company. Fedpac settled its share take up by converting their $5m shareholders loan to equity with the balance being settled in cash. As a result Fedpac raised its shareholding in the company to 57.42%. Funding: The group has two components to its funding: a. Geneva (the new business model) has a $30m securitisation facility which is currently drawn to $21.6m. b. Stellar has a three year $5.0m debt funding package which includes loan by directors. Standard and Poors Credit Rating: The company does not currently have a financial credit rating. Strategic Direction: The Group is now well placed to expand its lending programs and this is now the primary focus of the Board. The Group is also in a position to revisit its collections operations and explore opportunities that exist in the market to expand. Insurance business premium sales are linked to the group's lending volumes and improvements in lending are expected to flow through to the insurance business results. Summary and outlook: The $0.3m reported profit for the first 6 months of the year is a pleasing result following on from the $4.2m loss reported at March 2013. There remain challenges ahead to grow lending volumes but the Board are confident that this can be achieved while maintaining asset quality.
