Unaudited Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2012

@UK PLC (AIM:ATUK.L), the cloud ecommerce marketplace, today announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2012.

Financial

• Revenues decreased by 13% to £1.095m (2011: £1.255m) due to a slow-down in company formations
• High gross margin ecommerce revenues increased by 13.5% to £563k (2011: £496k)
• Loss before tax increased to £363k (2011: £222k)
• Net Assets increased to £416k (2011: (£138k))
• Strong set of cash generating renewals for H2

Operational

• New UK sales force generated over £3.5m of proposals being submitted in H1 (2011: £0.3 m) and 77% organic growth in ecommerce revenues
• Indian office launched and profitable
• Visa collaboration progressing well, currently in discussions on two significant international customer opportunities
• First implementation of Care Marketplace has completed user acceptance testing and is proceeding into pilot
• @UK named as approved supplier within two UK public sector frameworks
  • UK Government's G-Cloud framework
  • Four year national eCommerce framework agreement for all UK public bodies

Ronald Duncan, Executive Chairman, commented, "Our new sales force is delivering a significant number of low value analysis proposals. These should convert over time into higher value marketplace implementations. Thus we expect significantly higher future revenues as these progress through the sales and implementation cycle.

"Our international expansion is progressing well, and we have two high value opportunities where we have identified tens of millions of dollars in savings.

"Last year we had a strong second half, which means that we have a strong set of cash generating renewals to fund the second half of this year. This along with expected new sales gives us confidence in our ability to deliver full year results in line with expectations."

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Summary

Both our new sales team and international expansion are progressing well. Our UK sales delivered 77% organic growth in ecommerce revenues after taking out the effects of the major GeM contract win last year.

We have continued to increase the volume of proposals from 67 with a combined value of £1m, which were announced on 30 March 2012, to 140 with a value of £2.3m, which were announced on 24 May 2012, to 180 proposals with a value of £3.5m by the end of June. The proposals are converting to purchase orders and invoices and were a key element of the £212k of increased underlying ecommerce sales in the period. Given the team started in February it is still too early to determine the rate of conversion of proposals into cash, but we are continuing to build up the pipeline and refine the conversion. As we move through the second half we anticipate a significant increase in conversion and by 2013 we hope to be in a position to accurately forecast from sales activity to delivery.

We have two significant overseas opportunities. The first is in the target Asia Pacific region and the other is a US State. In both cases we have analysed billions of the organisation's spend and identified tens of millions of dollars of potential benefits through the implementation of an @UK Marketplace, demonstrating the global relevance of our system. We do not yet know how long these will take to convert into sales however the customer benefits are significant, and we would hope that they deliver in the next year.

In addition to this, our Indian office is now profitable and growing and while still early days, the signs are positive and our learning is very valuable for further roll out.

Financial results

Revenue for the six months to 30 June 2012 was £1,095,000, a decrease of 13% from £1,255,000 in the same period in 2011. This resulted in a decrease in gross profit to £841,000 (2011: £915,000).

Ecommerce revenues increased by 13.5% to £563,000 (2011 £496,000), delivering a gross profit of £510,000 (2011 £440,000) an increase of 16%. The comparable period is affected by the GeM contract win and after stripping out the effects of this significant contract win the underlying organic growth was 77% to £488,000 (2011 £276,000), resulting in an increase of 98% in gross profit to £435,000 (2011 £220,000).

Operating costs were £1,194,000 (2011: £1,122,000). After deduction of a charge for share based payments of £8,000 (2011: £9,000) the operating loss increased by 67% to £361,000 (2011: £216,000).

After finance costs of £2,000 (2011: £6,000), the loss before tax was £363,000, compared to £222,000 in 2011.

Cash increased to £94,000 (2011:£15,000).

Net Assets increased to £416,000 from the previous interim position of negative assets of £138,000.

Operational and Performance Review

The focus in the first half of the year has been in two key areas - the development of our overseas capabilities, in particular via our agreement with Visa, and the development of our UK sales team.

UK opportunities

The increased strength of our UK sales team has begun to deliver results. We now have 6 people in the team, increasing from 1 at this time last year. We have seen a significant increase in the number of SpendAnalysis and GreenAnalysis proposals being sent to NHS organisations and other public sector bodies, and we are making significant inroads into the 10,000 opportunities that we have identified.

There is a growing awareness of the need to implement Carbon Accounting across organisations, being driven by actions such as the UK Government's announcement that all companies listed on the London Stock Exchange shall be required to report their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from April next year. We have established ourselves as the market leader in product level carbon footprinting, and this has been an important factor in contract wins across public and private sector as organisations move from scope 1 (electric bills) to scope 3 (the entire carbon footprint of the organisation), and we believe will be a driver for future growth.

The UK private sector represents a growing area of opportunity for @UK and we are using our unique carbon reporting solution, alongside our global ecommerce solutions to help develop our presence in private sector procurement.

Another area being targetted by our UK sales team is the Social Care Marketplaces, building on the success of our leading early adopter client. There are approximately 160 local Government organisations who are required to implement individual budgets for citizens receiving care in the community and we have a lot of interest in our pilot site which is the first system to have citizens purchasing their own care.

GeM, our marketplace for all the UK's higher education sector, is progressing well, passing 10,000 users on its first anniversary. The focus for the next year is very much around growing transactions through the marketplace and ensuring that suppliers maximise their revenue generative opportunities across all of our customers. GeM suppliers are provided with a free @UK website for trading on GeM only, once they broaden out these websites across all of our buying communities they pay an annual licence fee. There are around 800 suppliers on GeM representing a significant up-sell opportunity for eCommerce and product level carbon coding.

We have delivered BASDA Utilities and Green XML and are now working on commercial pilots with the leading utility companies in preparation for rollout to their major customers. The pilots are due to complete by October 2012 followed by rollout in 2013.

The period has also seen @UK be named as an approved supplier under two UK public sector framework agreements.

In February we were delighted to be named as an approved supplier for the UK government's G-Cloud framework in each of the four lots of the framework. The G-Cloud is an initiative designed to consolidate cloud-based IT services into a shared framework for use by public authorities. Access to this framework will enable public sector IT services to be increasingly innovative, versatile and cost effective, through the ability to rent IT services on a pay per usage basis. The framework was tendered with an estimated value of £60 million. @UK believes it has a strong competitive position within the framework since it has the largest UK user base on its Platform as a Service offering, and believes it is the most efficient and greenest cloud provider.

In May, @UK was awarded a four year national eCommerce framework agreement for all UK public bodies. @UK was the only organisation named in all three lots of the framework, being Catalogue Solution, Spend Analysis and P2P Transaction Exchange and is therefore the only organisation that can provide a complete solution under the framework.The framework covers all UK public bodies, comprising the NHS, local authorities, educational establishments, police and emergency services, central Government departments and their agencies, registered charities, housing authorities and social landlords.

The Board believes both frameworks have the potential to be significant drivers of new business in future periods.

International opportunities

It is evident that our products are relevant in many markets outside the UK. While no significant revenues were derived in the period from international markets, we believe they have the potential to be significantly larger than the UK. Our initial focus is on markets that are culturally straightforward for us to do business in, with Australia and New Zealand representing significant opportunities. Whilst it is early days, we have interest in our entire product suite and in particular the combined proposition with Visa to embed electronic payment within the marketplace. In South East Asia in particular there is a real appetite for leading edge technology solutions and we hope to have live pilots up and running during 2013.

Outlook

Overall we are satisfied with progress in the first half, where we have put significant investment into building a pipeline across a wide range of opportunities.

Last year we had a strong second half, which means that we have a strong set of cash generating renewals to fund the second half of this year. This along with expected new sales gives us confidence in our ability to deliver full year results in line with expectations.
