Interim Management Report

We are pleased to report on the Group's progress during the period under review, as we gain traction as the global market leader in the provision of industrial asset management, auction and valuation services.

As a company we have asset, industry and market-leading expertise, coupled with powerful eCommerce tools, to deliver innovative solutions to help companies around the world optimise asset utilisation, reduce CAPEX, and dispose of surplus assets and value assets transparently and accurately. We have thirty-sixoffices across twenty countries servicing the needs of our multi-national blue-chip client base, which include manufacturing corporations, financial institutions, insolvency practitioners and asset based lenders.

For the six months to 30 June 2011 the Group delivered a Gross Revenue of GBP16.2m (2010:GBP20m). As a result, Direct Profit, our key measure of revenue, was GBP11.9m (2010: GBP13.8m), albeit at an improved margin of 73.2% (2010: 69.2%) as the business continues its transition to a better quality business model of higher margin, multinational corporate accounts and away from the traditional "one-off" auction business. Tight cost control remains a key focus for the Group and resulted in administrative expenses of GBP13.1m, being 3% below 2010.

The Group reported an Adjusted Operating Loss* of GBP1.3m (2010: profit GBP0.3m) after the deduction of the net finance costs of GBP0.1m (2010: GBP0.1m) and an Adjusted Loss before Tax* of GBP1.4m (2010: profit GBP151k). For the six months ended 30 June 2011, the Adjusted basic earnings per share was a loss of 15.6p per share (2010: Adjusted earnings of 0.5p per share).

Trading review

As outlined in the AGM Statement published on 23 June 2011, trading for the first half of 2011 was soft in North America. This was primarily due to a reduced number of one-off plant closures, as well as general economic uncertainty which caused many companies to postpone major capital expenditure decisions and focus on maximising productivity from their existing capital assets. The current economic situation remains a significant factor behind this conservative approach, making companies reluctant to buy new assets or dispose of unused ones until they develop greater clarity regarding future needs and trends. However, we do expect gradual improvement in our North American performance over the remainder of 2011.

The trends experienced in North America underline the important rationale behind our strategic shift of increasing the number of corporate 'forward flow' agreementswith large companies for the provision of industrial asset management, auction and valuation services. These agreements, which typically are multi-year service agreements with large global corporations, deliver significant recurring revenues and give the Group greater visibility and scalability over the medium term.

Indeed, the Group continues to make solid progress delivering on this key strategic aim. It has signed 11 new global corporate forward flow accounts in 2011 to date, taking our total number of active forward flow accounts to 50. We are also in advanced contract negotiations with 16 other multinational companies and look forward to updating the market on these developments in due course. These agreements should provide significant additional revenues to the Group in the second half of 2011 and in subsequent years. For example, the top 15 forward flow accounts averaged over GBP500k each of fees during 2010. In addition, 90% of key account contracts have been renewed; further evidence of the customer satisfaction our service delivers. The Group continued its investment in growing its sales and marketing capabilities, such as the Go-Optimize(R) services suite, which helps large corporations pro-actively manage their surplus assets. We believe it will be an important contributor to future growth and it continues to be well received in the market.

In the six months ended 30 June 2011, Direct Profit was generated as follows:

 
 GBP million              2011   2010   Change 
 Commission sales         9.1    10.2   (10.4%) 
 Professional services    2.4    2.0     21.1% 
 Other                    0.4    1.6    (77.4%) 
                         -----  -----  -------- 
                          11.9   13.8   (14.0%) 
                         -----  -----  -------- 
 

* Adjusted (loss)/profit before tax and adjusted (loss)/earnings per share, is before amortisation of acquired intangible assets and share based payment charges (note 8).

The Direct Profit from Commission Sales from auction transactions accounted for 76% of total Direct Profit, compared to 74% in 2010. The proportion of sales conducted online increased to 86% compared to 76% in 2010. This is in part due to the growing popularity of the Group's Industry Exchanges, which are becoming a recurring destination site for buyers and sellers of used equipment. This is a strong endorsement which shows that corporations are embracing the transparent and efficient online method for obtaining the best value for resale equipment. Professional services, comprised primarily of valuation fees, accounted for 20% of total Direct Profit up from 14% in 2010, based mostly on increased business with large global financial services clients. Other Direct Profit, comprised primarily of principal deals which are no longer regarded as a core activity as they increase the Group's exposure to financing commitments and fluctuations in asset values, declined from 11% to 3%.

As explained above, North America had a disappointing first half with Direct Profit down GBP2.6m on 2010 to GBP5.1m. A key factor was the reduction of Direct Profit from Principal deals, down GBP1.2m to GBP0.3m. Commission Sales in North America experienced weakness and were down GBP1.4m to GBP3.9m as large corporations had fewer plant closures than in the prior period and they deferred major capital expenditure decisions. Professional Services, however, grew by 3% to GBP0.9m. As a consequence, North America accounted for 43% of the Group Direct Profit, down from 56% in 2010.

Europe delivered a solid performance in the first six months. Direct Profit was GBP4.7m, in line with 2010. In particular, Professional Services grew by 22.3%, mostly due to greater demand in the UK. Commission Sales were GBP3.5m, down 4.6% on 2010, following the delay of two major auctions. However, improvements in the overall mix of business led to a significant increase in the European margin up from 59.9% in 2010 to 74.8% in 2011.

Asia had an excellent start to the year with a Direct Profit of GBP2.0m, up 48.1% on last year. In particular, Korea won a substantial contract to close 3 factories which helped increase the Direct Profit on Commission Sales from GBP1.2m to GBP1.7m, delivering a 43.0% increase over the prior period. In addition, Professional Services grew by 139.9% from GBP0.1m to GBP0.3m principally driven by companies requiring asset valuations due to restructuring, liquidations and mergers.

The Group derives more than half of its revenues in US dollars, so movements in the Sterling-US Dollar rate affect our reported revenues. Given that the US dollar has weakened by 6% in the last year against Sterling, the impact of exchange rates in the first half of 2011, although not significant, has tended to understate the reported revenues.

The Group continues to monitor its cash flow requirements and at 30 June 2011 the Group's net debt position was GBP4.2m (2010: GBP0.9m). The main increase in net debt since the year end is due in part to funding the trading activity of the first half, an increase in net working capital of GBP4.2m (of which the reduction in amounts due to clients were GBP3.5m), payments to the defined benefit pension scheme of GBP0.4m and software development capital expenditure of GBP0.4m.

In April 2011, the Group renewed and increased its main banking facilities. The term loan of GBP1.1m was increased to GBP2.4m with a maturity date of July 2014. Each of the Working Capital and the Principal Deal facilities were increased from GBP2.2m to GBP3.4m until April 2012. At June 2011 the combined headroom on the above facilities was GBP4.9m.

Outlook

We continue to implement our strategy to position the business for growth by providing global companies with the best surplus asset management solutions available. Our success at signing additional global corporations to our multiyear forward flow contracts demonstrates that we are on target with this goal. These new contracts, along with our existing base of global clients, will increasingly bring greater revenues, improved visibility to our revenue, and increase our cash flow. It will also enhance our Industry Exchanges so that they become the trading platform of choice. In addition, we expect to benefit from improved performance from our existing products and services as momentum within our markets gathers pace.

The company expects a strong second half, given a number of large asset disposal programmes scheduled before year end. Despite disappointing first half results, the final performance for the year will depend upon the outcome of these programmes. The pace at which new forward flow accounts are being signed gives the Board confidence as to the opportunity for the Group's global online business services and its prospects as a whole.

Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial information

1. General information

GoIndustry-DoveBid plc ('the company') and its subsidiaries (together 'the Group') is the global market leader in the provision of asset management, auction and valuation services relating to industrial equipment.

The Group has offices in locations across Europe, North America, and Asia.

The company is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in the United Kingdom. The address of its registered office is 1-6 Lombard Street, London, EC3V 9JU.

The company is listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange (GOI).

2. Basis of preparation

This unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information is for the six months ended 30 June 2011. The information has been prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. This report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ('IFRIC') Interpretations and the Companies Act 2006, as applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.

The financial information in this interim announcement does not constitute statutory financial statements within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The unaudited interim financial information was approved by the Board on 13 September 2011.

The statutory accounts of GoIndustry-DoveBid plc for the year ended 31 December 2010 have been reported on by the Company's auditor, Baker Tilly UK Audit LLP, and have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditor was unqualified and did not contain statements under Section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.

3. Accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in this condensed consolidated interim financial information are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, as described in those annual financial statements.

Exceptional items are disclosed and described separately in the financial statements where it is necessary to do so to provide further understanding of the financial performance of the Group. They are material items of income or expense that have been shown separately due to the significance of their nature or amount.

Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.

4. Estimates

The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial information, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, with the exception of changes in estimates that are required in determining the provision for income taxes and disclosure of exceptional items.

5. Financial risk management

The Group's principal risks and uncertainties remain as stated on pages 33-36 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010.

6. Seasonality of operations

The primary business of the Group is the provision of services associated with the valuation and sale by auction of used industrial equipment. No significant seasonality occurs in the Group's activities.

7. Segmental analysis

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board, acting as the strategic steering committee that are used to make strategic decisions.

The Board considers the business both from a geographical and a revenue stream perspective. Geographically, management considers the performance in Europe, North America and Asia Pacific ("APAC").

The reportable operating segments derive their revenue from commissions and billable expenses arising from auctions, fees from valuations and other professional services and commissions and billable expenses arising from principal deals, of both buy and guarantee types.

The Board assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of both direct profit (gross profit) and operating profit levels. In addition to investment income and finance costs, operating profit excludes the effects of equity-settled share-based payments and amortisation of acquired intangible fixed assets (see Note 8).

Sales between segments are carried out at arms' length. The following table presents revenue and profit information regarding the Group's operating segments for the six months ended 30 June 2011 and 2010 respectively

9. Income tax expense

The Interim charge for income tax is accrued using the estimated average annual effective income tax rate for each tax jurisdiction, applied individually to the pre-tax income of each jurisdiction for the period. However, as the Group has tax losses in most jurisdictions, no meaningful average annual effective income tax rate for the Group can be calculated.

It is not practicable or meaningful to produce an analysis of past due trade receivables because the Group does not have standard credit terms on all its sales. In the majority of auction sales, the Group's receivables form part of the auction proceeds that are collected into the client account and settled with the Group at the same time as they are settled with the client, typically within 4-6 weeks of the auction. However, in more complex cases the payment terms may be linked to the dismantling and shipping of an asset from one location to another, such that a drawdown might only be made when the assets have reached shipping point.

The fair value of current and non-current borrowings equals their carrying amount, as the impact of discounting is not significant.

Of the bank loans totalling GBP4.4m, GBP1.9m relates to loans used to fund principal transactions and working capital which are secured by charges over the assets of those companies and a parent company guarantee from GoIndustry-DoveBid plc. These facilities are in place until 30 April 2012. There is also a term loan facility of GBP2.3m that is due to mature on 1 July 2014. These US loans have a floating interest rate of 3.25% above LIBOR.

The loan held of GBP0.15m is repayable on demand, bears interest at a floating rate of 2.5% above UK Base Rates and is secured by a guarantee over the assets of that company.

The convertible loan notes are held by GoIndustry-DoveBid plc, mature on 31 December 2011 and bear interest at 12% per annum. The notes are convertible at any time into 1p New Ordinary shares at a price of GBP2.80 per share (30 June 2010: 1p New Ordinary shares at GBP2.80 per share). The notes may be redeemed by the Company at par at any time after 31 December 2010.

The subordinated loan notes are held by GoIndustry DoveBid, Inc. (formerly called DoveBid, Inc.) and do not bear interest. The loan notes are unsecured, subordinated to other debt of the Group and are repayable in 60 monthly instalments ending 30 November 2011.
