2 Dealogic (Holdings) plc 2011 Interim Report
IntroductionThe company performed well in the first six monthsof 2011. Revenues were $58.0 million ($48.1 million2010), a growth of 21% over the same period lastyear, resulting from the continued growth in ourunderlying contract base and an active new issuemarket.
Profit before tax was $17.6 million (2010:$16.8 million) and, with an increase in the underlyingtax rate from 36.1% to 38.8% due to non-deductibleacquisition evaluation costs, profit after tax for theperiod reduced slightly to $10.9 million (2010:$11.0 million).
Diluted earnings per share increased by 30.6% to18.8 cents (2010: 14.4 cents) due to the reduction inthe average number of shares in issue following thetender offer in June 2010.
ResultsRevenue increased by 20.6% (19.1% in constantcurrency terms) to $58.0 million (2010: $48.1 million)during the first half of 2011, with our underlyingcontracted revenue base again growing by more than10% on the previous year. Capital markets activitywas at a higher level and less volatile than in 2010.Total revenue in the Americas, EMEA and Asia grewby 19%, 2% and 83% respectively.
Investment in staff and infrastructure continued, andwe also established a new development centre inBudapest, Hungary.
Total operating costs for the first six months were$40.3 million, an increase of 26.8% over the sameperiod in 2010 (2010: $31.7 million). This increaseresulted from rising staff costs, which increased by27% compared to 2010, and a one-off charge of$2.0 million arising from the evaluation of anacquisition which was not completed.
Operating profit improved by $1.4 million to$17.7 million although at a lower operating margin of31% compared to 34% in 2010.
Operating cash flows of $27.5 million (2010:$18.5 million) were generated during the six monthperiod and total cash-flow, before the purchase andsale of shares and movements in bank loans andfinancial assets, amounted to $7.4 million (2010:$3.1 million). At the end of the period the group hadcash of $25.4 million (2010: $20.7 million) againstbank loans of $18.5 million (2010: $34.4 million)giving a net cash surplus of $6.9 million (2010: deficitof $13.7 million).
De-listing and tender offerFollowing approval by the shareholders at thegeneral meeting on 7 July 2011, the companycancelled the trading of its shares on AIM, effectiveTuesday 19 July 2011.
The Company is required to make an interim reportbefore offering to purchase shares from thoseshareholders who do not wish or are unable to holdshares in an unlisted company. Shortly after thepublication of this interim report the Company willmake a tender offer to shareholders to buy backtheir ordinary shares at a price of 330 pence pershare.
Interim DividendAn interim dividend of 2.5 pence (4.1 cents), anincrease of 25% in sterling terms on last year (2010:2.0 pence, 3.1 cents), will be paid on 8 November 2011to shareholders on the register on 31 October 2011.
OutlookThe first six months of this year was a period ofrelative stability in the global primary capitalmarkets. More recently there has been a markedincrease in volatility and uncertainty in the capitalmarkets and we have seen a significant decline intransaction volumes. However we remain optimistic;and welcome all shareholders who wish to remain asshareholders in the unlisted company. I can assureyou of your Board’s commitment to build on oursuccesses of the past through continued innovation,investment in our people and delivering best of breedproducts and services to our customers.

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimatesand assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets andliabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Except as described below, in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, thesignificant judgements made by management in applying the group’s accounting policies and the keysources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financialstatements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2010.
During the six months ended 30 June 2011 management reassessed its estimates in respect of incometaxes and deferred taxes.
4. Operating segments
The group has adopted the “management approach” in identifying the operating segments as outlined inIFRS 8. Management has analysed the information that the Chief Operating Decision Maker reviews andhas concluded that the operating segments should reflect the geographic split of the business.
The group has three reportable segments: Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA); Americas; and Asia.

Income tax expense is recognised based on management’s best estimate of the weighted average incometax rate expected for the full financial year, applied to the pre-tax income for the interim period. Thegroup’s consolidated effective tax rate in respect of continuing operations for the six months ended30 June 2011 was 39.0% (1H 2010: 35.1%). The increase in the effective tax rate for the group was due tothe smaller reduction in tax charges relating to prior years recorded in 2011 compared to 2010, and theincrease in disallowable expenses for tax purposes. The underlying tax rate for 2011 was 38.8% (1H 2010:36.1%).
