MASTERMAILER, Dull Boring Repetitive Business. (MMHP)     

goldfinger - 15 Mar 2007 12:38

But plenty of repeat profitable orders and ongoing product development.

Mastermailer Holdings plc

Mastermailer Holdings is a specialist supplier of secure stationery, providing
A4-laser printer-compatible mailers, primarily for use in the UK pay advice
market. The Company has developed and patented a unique glue which enables its
mailers to be permanently sealed without the use of high-pressure sealing
machines, thus making the Mastermailer attractive to small and medium-sized
businesses having relatively small, though regular, print runs.

Founded by directors Stephen and Claudia Black, the Company has recorded
profits in the last two financial years (to 30 June) and the current year is
progressing ahead of expectations. With the proceeds of the GBP850k placing,
the Company expects to reduce debt and expand sales, with the intention of
expanding into Europe, and ultimately North America and Asia.

Mastermailer is also currently exploring new uses for the Mastermailer and
developing new products; of the latter, the Company expects to have positive
news before the end of the current financial year.

Dawnay, Day Corporate Finance is Mastermailer's corporate advisor and Dawnay,
Day Corporate Broking is Mastermailer's corporate broker.

Mastermailer Holdings PLC - Interim Results


MASTERMAILER HOLDINGS PLC

INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
31 DECEMBER 2006


Mastermailer Holdings PLC ("Mastermailer" or "the Company"), which sells and
distributes the unique single-sheet, laser-compatible, self-seal mailer,
announces its interim results for the half year ended 31 December 2006.

* Turnover up 37% to - GBP 632,325 (2005: GBP 460,525)

* Pre-tax profit up 40% to - GBP 162,910 (2005: GBP 116,345)



CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

FINANCIAL RESULTS

I am pleased to report that Mastermailer has continued its rapid growth of
sales and profits to a record level in the half year to 31 December 2006.
Sales have risen by 37% to GBP 632,325 and profits by 40% to GBP 162,910. This
is in line with the company's projections and margins continue at historical
levels.

EXPANSION OF SALES OVERSEAS

The company attended an international trade show (Paperworld 2007) in Frankfurt
in January 2007. This elicited considerable interest in Mastermailer products
from print management companies, envelope distributors, business stationery
suppliers and commercial printers from all over the world. The company has now
begun the process of developing sales relationships with appropriate third
parties to produce results in line with its business plan i.e. growth in Europe
in this calendar year followed by America and elsewhere in 2008.

CURRENT TRADING

The business continues to trade in line with its projections maintaining its
margins and sales and profit growth.


FUTURE PROSPECTS

Despite the fact that the completion of the recent IPO created a major
diversion for management, the time required did not deflect the company from
its primary purpose of increasing sales, profit and shareholder value. The
Board is confident that the benefits from growing sales relationships, together
with product opportunities under development, will see the company continuing
its rapid expansion and growth in earnings.

soul traders - 29 Mar 2007 11:58 - 16 of 23

not bad, GF. Annualised current PE is therefore about 15.4 times post-tax profits. Things look okay if growth continues at current rate.

What I don't understand is why the company is paying so much tax on its profits. I thought the first 1.5 mil was tax-free.

goldfinger - 29 Mar 2007 23:05 - 17 of 23

EPS 5.4p despite a first time full tax charge. ST thats from the Prospectus.

Nice to see they have moved up today on the results and forward P/E should be less than 10.

Would have thought that this one now should be looking at an AIM listing.

goldfinger - 30 Mar 2007 12:32 - 18 of 23

I reckon these are trading on a prospective P/E of around 11 to the year end.

2nd half seems to be stronger.

Looking very cheap and we may get an update on product development.

goldfinger - 20 Apr 2007 09:49 - 19 of 23

Top notch news for an Ofex company this. Close brotheres increasing their stake and I dont blame them on a stock with a forward P/E of just over 11, way too cheap.....

Thanks for the post, GF.

O/T have you seen WGB - doing very nicely at present!

goldfinger - 20 Apr 2007 10:53 - 21 of 23

ST, will have a look, many thanks.

goldfinger - 16 Jul 2007 13:12 - 22 of 23

Phone call last week to the company by poster eyecatcher on another board...


I tried to have a word with Chris Sandison this morning, but no joy, however the lady I spoke to, who I took to be his secretary, I asked if she was busy, not expecting a response.
'I'm only the accountant' she explained, 'but busy isn't the word; ---, sales are going very (a decided emphasis on the 'very', I noted) well'.

Then deciding she had better be careful, very politely ended my call.

Not a lot to go on, but better than nothing.

I might have to go shopping.

goldfinger - 07 Nov 2007 13:00 - 23 of 23

SP up 2p today.

Results out by end of month.

Fingers crossed, should get a good write up if they are good and we get news on product development.
