Revenue: Close the Loop reported first half revenue of $92.3 million, up 2% from the prior period, driven mainly by Packaging division growth.
Profit Impact: The group posted a statutory loss of $26.9 million, heavily impacted by a $23 million write-down of intangible assets.
Underlying Earnings: Excluding write-downs and one-offs, underlying net profit was $2.5 million, down from $5.7 million last period due to softer ITAD volumes and unfavorable product mix.
Divestments: The company divested Alliance Paper and O F Flexo to focus on higher-margin, core businesses and relieve financial burdens.
Packaging Strength: Packaging saw 18% sales growth in South Africa and Australia, with EBITDA from Packaging up 27% on 18% sales growth.
Debt & Cash: Net debt increased slightly due to cash used in divestments, but borrowings decreased by $4 million and cash on hand remains strong at $24 million.
Outlook: Management expects positive cash flow in the second half, continued focus on debt reduction, and further growth in Packaging, with new markets targeted.
