Trading Statement

· Half Year Group sales anticipated to be up by more than 30% and profit before tax anticipated to be substantially ahead of prior year

· Continued expansion of customer base

· Product offering expanded through the creation of Minimise Solutions Limited and Minimise Finance Limited

APC Technology Group PLC (AIM: APC), is pleased to provide an update on its current trading and anticipated results for the six months ended 28 February 2014.

The first half of 2014 has seen a continuation of the progress made in 2013. The Group is expected to report sales of approximately £12.1m (2013 H1: £9.2m) and to declare a profit before tax of at least £700,000 (2013 H1: £47,000) when it publishes its interim results at the end of May this year. The Group's energy efficiency focused businesses, trading under the Minimise brand, experienced continued growth in revenue, both through orders from existing customers, in particular Wm Morrisons Supermarkets PLC, and an increasing number of orders from new customers, including Network Rail. As a result of efforts to expand the customer base, the pipeline of new potential business has also grown significantly this year with notable progress being made with a number of the blue chip organisations across a range of sectors in both the UK and North America.

Related to this, the Group has continued to expand its energy efficiency focused product offering and has recently established an energy efficiency consulting business, Minimise Solutions Limited, which will help customers develop and then implement an effective energy management strategy. In addition, the Group can confirm that it is in advanced discussions to acquire a majority interest in a small, specialist, funding business with the view to offering customers turnkey financing solutions for energy efficiency projects through a specially created subsidiary, Minimise Finance Limited. A further announcement will be made in due course. It is anticipated that both of these businesses will provide additional routes to market and the opportunity for the Group to broaden the scope of engagement with key customers, which will further develop the recurring revenues that the Group is now beginning to create.

APC's electronic components business continues to trade profitably albeit on a marginally lower turnover. That said, a number of recently awarded contracts from major customers has resulted in an increased order book, which helps to underpin the business prospects for this division for the second half of the year.

The Group's associate company, Invisible Systems Limited (ISL), successfully developed relationships with a number of new customers during the period both through Minimise and directly. In particular, it has secured business with FastNet, a subsidiary of Telcom SA Limited, which is expected to lead to increasing revenues during the current financial year.

The Group anticipates announcing its interim results on 30 May 2014.

Contract win and Acquisition


APC Technology Group PLC (AIM: APC), is pleased to announce that it has received an order for the installation of LED lighting at three buildings operated by one of the UK's foremost high street banks.

The order, valued at £0.425 million, is expected to be fulfilled during the remainder of this financial year and the very early part of the next financial year and is expected to be the first of a number of projects from this customer.

In addition, further to its announcement of 16 July 2014, APC has now commenced the delivery of LED lighting at one of the UK's major food and clothing retailers for the installation into refrigeration units in its approximate 500 stores. The retailer requested that delivery of the order commenced in advance of the purchase order being raised to avoid delay when adding Minimise as an approved supplier thereby enabling the project to be completed by mid-September 2014. Whilst too early to determine with certainty, it is expected that the majority of this order will be invoiced at the end of the current financial year or very early in September. The order, which has an initial value of £1 million, is expected to increase in value when the full 500 stores have been surveyed and this contract is anticipated to be part of a wider roll out of low energy lighting to this retailer in which the Group hopes to participate.

Minimise remains in the final stages of negotiations for orders with other new and significant customers in various market sectors which, if placed, will generate significant growth and further reduce reliance on any one customer in the next financial year.

APC is also pleased to report that it has reached an agreement regarding the acquisition of a 10 per cent. interest in Open Energy Market Limited ("OEM"), the UK's first autonomous online energy procurement platform for corporate energy users, for £0.2 million in cash. Subject to certain performance milestones, APC has the option to purchase a further 15 per cent. of OEM, at the same valuation, over the next 12-18 months.

OEM's online procurement platform, which will be marketed and sold as a service offered by APC's Minimise Solutions business, provides energy buyers direct access to the UK's top 14 gas and electricity providers offering an efficient and fully transparent way to manage their energy procurement. OEM's customer base includes both public and private sector companies and the technology is proven to generate total energy cost savings of between 2 per cent. and 10 per cent. over traditional procurement methods.


Mark Robinson, Chief Executive Officer of APC Technology Group, commented:

"We are very pleased to be engaged with two significant new customers, evidence of the on-going progress we are making in growing the depth of our customer base. Negotiations with further household names are ongoing and I look forward to reporting further news in due course.

"The investment we have made in OEM, whose mission it is to increase transparency in the energy broking market, perfectly complements our growing range of solutions and we're delighted to be able to welcome them on board. Through OEM's disruptive technology, we believe we are able to offer a compelling approach; enabling corporations to more efficiently control their energy procurement while at the same time helping them to control consumption through the technologies offered by Minimise Energy."

A big rebound due here.
Well oversold.
