Zytronic plc



Preliminary Results for the year ended 30 September 2012 (unaudited)



Zytronic plc, a leading specialist manufacturer of touch sensors, announces its preliminary results for the year ended 30 September 2012.



Highlights



§ Profit before tax increased by 18% to £4.2m (2011: £3.6m)

§ EPS increased by 21% to 22.2p (2011: 18.3p)

§ Total dividends for year increased by 10% to 8.5p (2011: 7.7p)

§ Touch revenue accounts for 71% of group revenue (2011: 70%)

§ Gross profit margin increased to 36.3% from 33.7%

§ Net cash generated from operations of £4.6m (2011: £4.5m)

§ Net cash balance less borrowings increased by £1.8m to £2.3m



Commenting on the results, Chairman, Tudor Davies said:

"The continuing MPCT technical advances and the successful public roll-out of our PCT touch products for vending applications has resulted in further opportunities from major global food and drinks companies, and also for ATM and ticketing applications

The company posted 18% profits growth last year to end
September despite largely flat revenues of £20.4 million due to challenged European end markets. Zytronic is blessed with exiting growth potential as the touch screen displays market evolves.

Peter Botham, of Brown Shipley, is hoping to bounce back in 2013 with AIM-listed Zytronic, which makes touch screens, after seeing his 2012 selection May Gurney Integrated Services lose more than a third of its value.

“From smartphones to tablets and fridges, the use of touch screen devices is set to explode even further and, with patented technology and the ability to manufacture directly from the original piece of glass, Zytronic’s market value of £47m looks set to advance strongly in the next year,” he said.

In IC this week, Zytronic loses its touch.

Touch sensor products maker Zytronic warned less than a fortnight ago that profits in the first seven months of its financial year had halved. The shares have too, and the scope for any significant recovery appears some way off as customers remain reluctant to commit orders. Visibility has always been an issue for Zytronic, given it has little idea what's in store more than six weeks in advance. Coca cola and its free style drinks machines are blamed for a big slug of the lost half year revenue.

"Although Zytronic (ZYT) had a profits warning as recently as May, I'm a fan of the company, which has bounced back on news that it is close to signing a contract with a major fizzy drinks company. The business, which is based in Gateshead, manufactures touch screens for industrial customers and already counts Coca-Cola as one of its biggest clients."
