Business Review

Financial Results

Revenue for the six months ended 31 March 2014 was £1,670,993 (H1, 2013 £476,285) a 250% increase. The loss on operations and attributable to equity shareholders was £123,092 (H1, 2013 loss £408,938).

Revenue included £119,982 of licence fee and project management fee income. (H1, 2013, £25,806)

Administrative expenses incurred in the day to day running of the business were £575,261 (H1, 2013 £615,530), a 7% reduction.

As at 31 March 2014 as reported in the statement of financial position, the company does not have distributable reserves and is unable to declare a dividend.

The loss per share was 1.10 pence (H1, 2013 0.111pence).

Overview

The first half of 2014 has seen significant changes to the company. The highlights were:

• Like for like revenue up by 250%
• New UK distribution arrangements implemented in UK
• $3.2M (circa £1.9M) forward order book at half year
• Administrative expenses reduced by 7%
• Losses substantially reduced by 70%


Revenue reported is supported by a strong order book of $3.2M (circa £1.9M) which is scheduled for delivery in the second half of the year. We therefore expect full year sales to be in the order of £3.5M.

Average margins in the first half were lower at 29% due to the transfer of existing stocks to Megaman and
continued supply to existing customers at reduced margins due to the change in distribution strategy. Gross margins in the second half are expected to recover significantly. Overall gross profit was much improved at £490,539 (2013 £228,239) an increase of 115%

We have continued to develop our distribution channels in the UK with the rollout to Maplin now at 180 stores. The new distribution arrangements have also been agreed with Maplin and B&Q in the period demonstrating their continued commitment. On line retail also continues with Amazon and other on line retailers. With the Megaman presence and positioning we expect these channels to build consumer sales further over the coming months.

We are now also turning our attention to international markets to seek to create similar distribution arrangements to Megaman in the UK. Securing agreements with the right partners takes investment and time but we do expect these efforts will start to impact next financial year.

Administrative expenses in the period were reduced by £40,269 or 7%. We plan on further switching this
spend to accelerate our product development and away from general administration. We plan to further develop our expertise in Radio Frequency with more software and hardware capability. This will enable the business to have a UK centred technology development team providing creativity, flexibility, focus and speed to market through the sound LightwaveRF platform we have created.



Product Development Strategies

Our focus on product, software and app development is centred around four strategies; 1. Products (covering Lighting, electrical, Eco monitoring, heating, cooling and security), 2. Apps, 3. Cloud Services/Data Mining and 4. Licencing.

Strategy 1 - Products

The business continues to introduce at pace a broad range of radio frequency controlled devices which on final launch of the new heating range will number over 100. The key step forward with the heating products is the introduction of an enhanced LightwaveRF protocol with two way communication to enable products to report on their status and to pass on commands. We now have a comprehensive range of lighting & electrical and heating products with further development underway. These will be further complemented by additional security products and new ways of Eco monitoring later in the year. We remain differentiated from our competition by the depth of our range but also our ability to control most household devices from one App.

Strategy 2 - Apps

We have already launched significantly enhanced Apps to the market during this trading period and added heating to the Apps capability. We plan to launch our first web app with more comprehensive scheduling functions for easier set up on PC, Mac and Tablet formats. We have shown our new smart watch app at the recent Gadget Show. All of these platforms will see further investment over the coming months.

Strategy 3- Cloud Services and Data Mining

Significant investment has now been made in to our web services and data capture for the University of Warwick. We can now monitor and record a range of parameters including temperature, room occupancy and window opening. We believe that this micro and macro monitoring of data and environmental control response will create more power to the LightwaveRF cloud platform with further revenue streams.

Strategy 4- Licensing

We are now actively pursuing a further broadening of the range by embedding LightwaveRF technology in partner products creating a "Connected by LightwaveRF" range of products. Not only does this accelerate the range of control available but adds a potentially new income stream from licence arrangements.

Outlook

The management team believe strongly in reinvesting in the company's technology and brand at this stage in the companies evolution. While we are fully focussed on underlying profit and cash generation from our revenues we expect to make significant commitment to continued product development investment. The year should see a turnaround in the previous losses suffered by the business.

1325 GMT [Dow Jones]--WH Ireland rates LightwaveRF (LWRF.LN), "the only pure-play home automation company quoted in London," as a speculative buy. While "valuation at this early stage is more of an art than a science," the brokerage feels the rollout of new lighting and heating product ranges could double the share price. The home automation sector is "white hot" and it is little wonder that Google paid $3.2 billion for Nest, says WH Ireland, which has a 70p target price on LightwaveRF,
