Operational Highlights

Our strategy of driving increased profitable sales through gross margin improvement, radical simplification of business operations, rigorous cost control and the prioritisation of our Skinny Tan brand, is working.

Financial performance is markedly improved vs H1 2020. Our previously announced strategy has been implemented with a disciplined approach to marketing and overhead costs.

Short-term impact on revenue (revenues of c. GBP3.7m versus H1 20: GBP4.1m) primarily driven by ceasing loss-making sales promotions and reducing marketing investment in lower priority brands such as Nuthing.

Adjusted EBITDA improved significantly to GBP0.7m loss (H1 21 restated: GBP1.2m loss).

We have further improved our return on marketing spend to 38.1% (H1 21: 40.0%, H2 21: 39.2%) and have reduced less-efficient marketing spend during the low tanning season to ensure we have the right ammunition to maximise returns over the peak H2 tanning season (UK + US).

Our Liberty Poole collaboration continues to yield benefits and is helping to increase the share of our business in the key 18-25 age group.

Global Amazon relationship already delivering material sales in lead UK market at a healthy margin.

Enhanced e-commerce operational excellence with 76% of customers giving Skinnytan.co.uk 5 stars.

Joint venture agreement signed in December 2021 to accelerate sales of the Prolong medical device, with InnovaDerma plc retaining 45% stake in the business, and enabling the Group to focus on its topical products.

Outlook

The Board remains optimistic that the transformation plan enacted this year, as well as underlying improved consumer consumption and retail momentum versus last year will enable the business to continue its improvement trajectory over the second half year with a return to profitability this year remaining the Board's intention. The second half of our financial year has historically been considerably stronger than the first, driven by Skinny Tan in the UK, and this is expected to be the case again this year. We continue to closely monitor residual impacts of COVID-19 and other global impacts on underlying beauty category consumption and we believe they will continue to improve towards the peak tanning season in the UK.

Blake Hughes, CEO InnovaDerma plc, commented:

"We continue to make good progress in simplifying and reshaping our business as we focus on delivering sustainable, profitable revenue growth. It is pleasing to see that our strategy is delivering tangible financial improvements.

"We have a strong foundation for the second half of the year, especially as the focus on Amazon and our Liberty Poole collaboration are delivering strong benefits, even before peak tanning season. This will be supported by our well-honed digital capabilities and conversion optimised e-commerce site and exciting new Skinny Tan product launches which have already received excellent retailer support."

Non-Executive Chairman's statement

I am pleased to deliver the Company's interim results for the period ended 31 December 2021.

The Company's change in strategy, to concentrate on driving increased profitable sales, ceasing loss making promotions and prioritising Skinny Tan, has been endorsed by the improvement in the Company's operating performance for the six months to 31 December 2021, as outlined in the Trading Update issued on 12 January 2022 and in the interim results announced today.

I am pleased to be able to report an improvement in gross margin, EBITDA and EPS.

Strategic report: Chief Executive's report

As previously detailed in our annual results published in December, the Group has implemented a number of necessary operational and financial interventions to transform and future-proof the business. The action plan focused on:

   1.   Optimising our organisation 

Our business is only as strong as our people and how they collaborate as a team. The focus remains to ensure that we have the right people, in the right country, with the right skills, focused on the right targets and powered by the right mindset.

   2.   Strengthen our financial foundations 

During H1 21 we have significantly reduced the EBITDA loss versus the prior year, with a laser-like focus on improving gross margins, reducing non-productive inventory, cutting low return costs and introducing real time accurate financial profitability metrics.

   3.   Focusing our resources on our priority brands 

Skinny Tan is our flagship brand and number one priority. Despite its ongoing success there remain significant profitable growth opportunities when compared to successful global beauty brands. Given the effects of the pandemic we have further strengthened our e-commerce foundations in the UK market, through the previously untapped potential of Amazon as a key driver of future profitable growth.

   4.   Improve our customer experience online and in store 

Our enhanced brand architecture and new packaging is rolling out on priority brands Skinny Tan and Charles + Lee, and we expect both to enhance the consumers' online and instore shopping experience. Initial consumer and retailer reaction to the new packaging, as well as our new product innovations for 2023, has been extremely positive..

   5.   Modernising our customer acquisition marketing model 

We now have in place a modern, nuanced digital marketing strategy that leverages the full gamut of digital media. As well as our expertise in social media advertising, the model now includes a strong focus on cost-effective e-mail marketing and high-return influencer marketing, all supported by a conversion optimised e-commerce site.

Our performance

Our strategy of driving increased profitable sales through gross margin improvement, radical simplification of business operations, rigorous cost control and the prioritisation of our Skinny Tan brand, is working.

Skinny Tan is the Company's largest brand (84% of revenue) and highest priority future growth driver. The previously communicated strategic decision to move away from certain loss leading sales led to a reduction in sales but is consistent with the Group's strategic focus on longer-term profitability. Amazon is now the Company's 3rd largest retailer, with further significant future growth anticipated as we enter the peak tanning season. This sales channel is becoming increasingly significant whilst allowing us to achieve a healthy margin.

Charles + Lee has shown excellent retail sales growth though revenues of c. GBP0.3m remain slightly below last year (H1 20: GBP0.4m) with the difference driven by shipment phasing. Positioned around 'No-nonsense, high-performance Aussie-made male grooming' we are successfully focusing the brand at the entry premium tier, adjusting pricing up c.10%, and with excellent growth potential.

Investment in Roots and Nuthing has been deprioritised as we focus on Skinny Tan and Charles + Lee as the Company's priority growth brands.

As previously announced, the Company entered into a Joint Venture for the Prolong brand in Dec 2021. Prolong revenues prior to the partnership agreement are included in our consolidated figures. Revenues after the partnership agreement are excluded from our consolidated figures and from future forecasts, however, InnovaDerma will directly benefit from any future dividends which are paid by the Joint Venture and/or any proceeds achieved by a future sale of the business.

Financial review

The Group has reported an increased gross profit of GBP2.1m, up 3.1% compared to the same period in the prior year, despite a decrease in revenue of 9.5% versus the previous year. This is due to a gross margin improvement of 690 basis points to 56.3% as the Group continues to focus on profitable sales, rather than revenue generation at the expense of profits.

Marketing efficiency continues to improve, to 38.1% (H1 21: 40.0%, H2 21: 39.2%), as the Group diversifies its digital strategy, including a strong focus on cost effective e-mail marketing and a conversion optimised e-commerce site, that goes beyond a pure Facebook play.

Adjusted EBITDA improved to GBP0.7m loss, as compared to GBP1.2m loss in the same period in the prior year, as a consequence of improved gross margin, diversified marketing strategy, greater recovery of e-commerce delivery costs, and tighter overhead cost control.

Cash

Cash reaches a seasonal low at the half year as we invest in appropriate levels of inventory ahead of the peak Skinny Tan UK sales peak months in H2. We reached this position at 31 December 2021 with cash at hand of GBP1.3m (H1 21: GBP0.15m), less structured, low-cost borrowings of GBP1.2m repayable in 2-5 years. The prior year cash position was achieved via extreme creditor position which precipitated the H2 21 fundraise.

Previous ad hoc funding, including seasonal invoice factoring, deferred VAT (COVID-19), and HMRC repayment plans, have been replaced by a single CBILS loan of GBP950k drawn down in full on 2 July 2021.

Dividends

The Board has elected not to declare an interim dividend.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

For the six months ended 31 December 2021

   1.          General information 

InnovaDerma plc is a Group incorporated and domiciled in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006. The address of its registered office is 27 Old Gloucester Street, London, United Kingdom, WC1N 3AX.

The principal activity of the Group is the development, distribution and sale of skincare, haircare, beauty and life science products in the markets that it operates.

   2.          Accounting policies and critical accounting judgements 

2.1 Basis of preparation

These financial statements are presented in pounds sterling because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates.

The Group's interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU.

The annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted for use by the European Union. A copy of the statutory accounts for the year ended 30 June 2021 has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified and did not contain any statements under Section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation have been followed in this unaudited interim financial information as those which were applied in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021.

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not year effective for the year ended 30 June 2022 and have therefore not been applied in preparing this interim financial information.

The interim accounts are unaudited and do not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.

2.2 Going concern

The Directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In reaching this conclusion the Directors have considered the financial position of the Group, its cash, liquidity position and borrowing facilities together with its forecasts and projections for 12 months from the approval date that take into account reasonably possible changes in trading performance. The going concern basis of accounting has therefore continued to be adopted in preparing the financial statements.

The Group has taken into account the uncertainty due to the economic impact of COVID-19, and has made prudent forecasts, incorporating mitigating actions, based on current knowledge. It has also secured a CBILS loan of GBP950k, drawn down in full on 2 July 2021.

2.3 Prior year restatement

The Group has restated the prior year comparatives to correct the following prior period accounting errors:

-- To expense marketing costs incorrectly capitalised totalling GBP1,249k for the year ended 30 June 2018, GBP984k for the year ended 30 June 2019, and GBP840k for the year ended 30 June 2020.

-- Write down inventory due to incorrect allocation of cost of sales by GBP413k in the year ended 30 June 2019 and by GBP1,428k in the year ended 30 June 2020.

-- Impairment of goodwill on acquisitions of GBP2,566k relating to Leimo / Grow Lase, Prolong and Stevie K, to correctly reflect the Group accounting policies.

-- An amortisation charge relating to intangible assets, totalling GBP489k for the year ended 30 June 2018, GBP235k for the year ended 30 June 2019, and GBP215k for the year ended 30 June 2020, to correctly reflect the Group accounting policies.

-- GBP701k reduction in goodwill of Skinny Tan, due to incorrect accounting for step acquisition of Skinny Tan Pty Ltd.

-- Register accruals totalling GBP392k for audit, tax and legal fees and bonus payments predominantly for the year ended 30 June 2020.

   --         Register GBP60k bad debt provision relating to the year ended 30 June 2020. 

-- Recognise GBP78k share-based payment expense in the statement of changes in equity for the year ended 30 June 2020, reallocated from the statement of comprehensive income.

-- GBP408k intercompany loan exchange movements reallocated from foreign exchange reserve to administrative expenses

-- Recognise amortisation of GBP32k and depreciation of GBP14k for the period ended 31 December 2020, not previously recorded.

-- Recognise corporation tax charges for the year ended 30 June 2017 of GBP217k and for the year ended 30 June 2018 of GBP118k.

-- Derecognise a deferred tax asset of GBP18k due to uncertainty of sufficient future profits in those subsidiaries.

-- To reclassify exceptional items of GBP196k and listing expenses of GBP76k to administrative expenses, and other operating income of GBP59k to cost of goods sold, in the period ended 31 December 2020.

-- Reduce corporation tax liability by GBP1,387k as a result of the above-listed adjustments.

-- Reduce the non-controlling interest by GBP184k as a result of the above-listed adjustments.

These changes have had a material impact on the Group's reported statement of comprehensive income and statement of financial position for the financial year 31 December 2020. Please refer to note 11 for further details of the restatement.

   3.             Operating segments

IAS 33 requires presentation of diluted EPS when a Group could be called upon to issue shares that would decrease earnings per share or increase the loss per share. For a loss-making Group with outstanding share options, the net loss per share would be decreased by the exercise of options. Therefore, as per IAS33:36, the anti-dilutive potential ordinary shares are disregarded in the calculation of diluted EPS.

    9.            Related party transactions 

On 3 December 2021, Ergon Medical Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of InnovaDerma plc, subdivided its 3,614 GBP1 Ordinary A shares into GBP0.10 shares and re-designated them Ordinary B shares and issued 51,060 new Ordinary A shares to Mark Ward, Non-Executive Director of InnovaDerma plc. The issue of new shares dilutes InnovaDerma plc's shareholding in Ergon Medical Limited to 45%. The transaction is an effective step disposal and as such Ergon Medical Limited is now an associate rather than a subsidiary of InnovaDerma plc.

On 3 December 2021, InnovaDerma plc signed a deed of release forgiving in full debt totalling GBP805,310 owed by the Ergon Medical Limited to InnovaDerma plc and its subsidiaries. It is this debt forgiveness that gives rise to the loss on disposal of investment in the period.

Other than those disclosed within this note, there have been no other transactions with related parties.

   10.           Events after the reporting date
