Commenting on the results, Farouq Sheikh, Executive Chairman of CareTech, said:

'We have had a strong first half, delivering a robust performance against an unprecedented and challenging COVID-19 pandemic. The specialist social care services we provide remain vital in the UK and I am delighted to say we have been able to ensure these remain open and operating to our usual high-quality standards both during the period ended 31 March 2020 and to date.

I am extremely proud of the way our employees have responded to the pandemic and I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all of our staff and the Executive team for their leadership during this period. Their dedication to supporting our service users throughout this difficult time and achieving better outcomes on a daily basis has been truly inspiring. To proactively support our staff, a CareTech COVID-19 Fund was launched in March, allocating up to £1m of the Group's cash to support staff facing adversity. We are also prioritising the wellbeing of our employees by focussing our support on their health including mental health.

I am pleased to report that the Group's trading performance for the first half is in-line with market expectations. We are progressing well with our strategic objective of improving the Cambian business and we are well on track to deliver our medium term Cambian EBITDA margin target of 16% and deliver synergies of at least £5m by September 2020.

In February 2020, we completed an investment in the largest provider of private outpatient mental health services in the United Arab Emirates. CareTech is looking forward to expanding the pathway in the region into specialist social care and specialist education services.

In these uncertain times, CareTech has demonstrated the resilience of its business model and with the strength of cash flows available to the Group this puts us in a strong position to continue to grow market share'.

There will be a presentation of the results to analysts at 10.00am this morning via conference call. This presentation will be available after the conference call athttps://www.caretech-uk.com/investors/reports-and-presentations/financial-reports.aspx.

Chairman's Statement

CareTech has delivered a strong set of results for the six months to 31 March 2020.

The past six months have been both challenging and rewarding. The Group has continued to benefit from favourable demographics underpinned by the growth in outsourcing to the private sector. We continue to work extremely closely with Local Authorities and Regulators in providing high quality care and to achieve positive outcomes for our service users.

We have continued to deliver the highest standards of care during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Group has played a vital role in ensuring our services remain fully operational. The majority of service users we care for are children and adults with learning disabilities, mental health diagnoses and/or with challenging behaviours. Less than 3% of our service users fall into the formal NHS high-risk category groups for COVID-19, such as those with underlying health conditions, which is very different to that of elderly care services which have been significantly impacted by the virus.

In these unprecedented times, our focus has been on delivering safe services and the health, safety and wellbeing of our employees and service users. A COVID-19 taskforce, comprising both divisional leadership and members of the Group Executive Team, was set up at the outset of the pandemic outbreak. Through the use of a dynamic risk assessment tool we have been able to provide real time monitoring and support across all of our services as well as ensuring that we have a business continuity plan at each site. This covers arrangements to provide staff cover between services, utilising extra staff as necessary and overall reducing agency workers. Following the latest Government and Public Health guidance, we have strict precautions in place at our sites including enhanced levels of cleaning, additional hygiene facilities and social distancing. Enhanced precautions and safety checks have also been set up and only essential visits are taking place with oversight being provided remotely where possible and appropriate. Through all of the above and the incredible dedication of our staff, support teams and management, we continue to provide excellent support and care to those in our services.

To recognise the cost pressures on social care providers caused by COVID-19, higher sickness absence rates, personal protective equipment (PPE) costs and higher administration costs, additional funding of £1.6bn was announced by the Local Government Association in mid-March 2020. The Group is working closely with all Local Authorities in establishing a dedicated funding arrangement to support our services which will be collected during the second half. As a consequence, we are confident of meeting market expectations for the full year 2020.

Despite this challenging backdrop we continue to successfully integrate Cambian. Ofsted ratings have increased to 82% Good or Outstanding (from 77% at the time of acquisition) and best practice is being shared across the Group. However, due to COVID-19, Ofsted have suspended all routine inspections, which will delay the reporting of improved progress. The EBITDA margin of the Cambian business has improved to c.14% and we are in a strong position to achieve our medium term target of 16% pre synergies as set out at the time of acquisition. The Group confirms that it is on track to deliver £5m of pre-tax profit synergies for the year through further back-office integration, the relocation of Cambian's head office in November 2019, and streamlining IT and procurement.

On 4 February 2020, CareTech completed the acquisition of a 51% interest in AS Investments Holding Ltd and AS1 Investments Holding Ltd (the 'AS Group') which holds a majority equity interest in the Macani Medical Center and American Center for Psychiatry and Neurology respectively. The AS Group was established in 2015 by Shafqat Malik, co-founder and CEO, to introduce best in class mental healthcare services in the United Arab Emirates. The partnership is already discussing a number of opportunities through the provision of special education needs services in the region and a wider social care provision.

CareTech is well placed, through its innovative care pathway, to address the demands of a growing and evolving marketplace and the Board remains confident of the Group's performance for the remainder of the year which continues to trade in line with market expectations. Looking forward, the Group will continue to extend both UK geographic coverage and the range of outcome based Care Pathway services. This will be achieved through both organic development, re-provisioning our services to address demand and through bolt-on acquisitions in particular focused on the higher acuity service provision.

Financial Results

Results in this section are presented for H1 2020 on a non-statutory illustrative basis excluding the impact of IFRS 16 'Leases' ('IFRS 16') to enable comparison with 2019 performance. Included in the Group consolidation results and reported in Adults Services and Children's Services operating segments for the six months ended 31 March 2020 are the AS Group's Revenue, EBITDA and other income statement items together with cash flows following completion on 4 February 2020.

Group revenue in the half year has increased by 8.3% to £208.5m from £192.5m reflecting the continued turnaround in Cambian, re-positioned services coming online and fee increases. Local Authorities continue to demand flexible high-quality care solutions for children and adults with mid-to-higher acuity care needs.

The National Minimum and Living Wage increased from 1 April 2020. As with prior years, annual fee negotiations with Local Authorities are well underway and we expect fee increases to cover the additional costs resulting from increases in salaries to front line staff as Local Authorities recognise that front line staff are an integral part of quality care delivery.

Divisional EBITDA before unallocated costs increased by 7.9% to £48.6m (2019: £45.1m) and Group underlying EBITDA(i) increased by 14.1% to £38.0m (2019: £33.3m) reflecting the synergy saving from the Cambian acquisition. Underlying EBITDA(i) margin has increased from 17.3% to 18.2%.

Underlying profit before tax(ii) increased by 25.1% to £25.9m (2019: £20.7m) and underlying basic earnings per share(ii) was 18.44p (2019: 15.82p).

A key feature of this business is its strong cash flow generation. EBITDA to cash conversion(iii) remained strong for the period from 1 October 2019 to 31 March 2020 at 92% against a backdrop of the relocation of Cambian's back office to CareTech's head office in November 2019 and mobilising working from home arrangements in response to COVID-19. Other key cash flows during the first half included £4.8m spent on developments, £2.2m of integration costs, £4.7m on the UAE acquisition, payment of the interim dividend of £4.1m and corporation tax payments of £2.0m. Net debt was £287.4m as at 31 March 2020 compared with £291.1m at September 2019.

Net assets have increased to £353.0m as at 31 March 2020 (2019: £328.4m).

Service user capacity and occupancy

The Group's net capacity as at 31 March 2020 was 5,044 places (September 2019: 5,079 places), the decrease attributable primarily to the Fostering division reflecting COVID-19 restrictions in places available. Adults Services capacity was 1,967 (September 2019: 1,968), Children's Services 1,948 (September 2019: 1,933) and Fostering 1,129 (September 2019: 1,178).

At 31 March 2020, occupancy levels in the blended estate increased to 81% (September 2019: 80%) and occupancy in the mature estate remained constant at 85% (September 2019: 85%).

Operating review

We are the pre-eminent provider of children's and adults services for those with a learning disability, mental health or challenging behaviour across the UK. We are increasingly developing and offering services across this broad spectrum 'Care Pathway', so that we are able to provide care and support for a vulnerable person on their life journey for a young person through to adulthood.

(1) Adults Services

Adults Services offers a flexible, person-centred approach with support offered on an individual planned basis both within a registered residential setting and in step-down supported housing. Specialist Services comprise the Adult Mental Health Services and Oakleaf Care (Hartwell). Specialist Services works in partnerships with the NHS to ensure a successful transition out of acute care, delivering pathways to independence. The typical age profile for service users in our adult services ranges from young adults to middle age with a very small portion of elderly people.

Revenue increased by 6.3% to £66.0m and EBITDA by 6.0% to £15.9m. Capacity fell by 1 place since September 2019 to 1,967 with 20 supported living contracts coming to an end offset by 19 new beds being brought into service.

Across the Group the focus on quality continues with Care Quality Commission (CQC) quality ratings at 91% Good or Outstanding in Adults Services, which compares favourably to the national average of 84%.

The market for adult high acuity care and the support of people with learning disability is estimated to be £5.8bn(iv) and growing year on year due to demographics and individuals living longer. Demand remains high across the spectrum for the support of people with learning disabilities and the Group recognises an increasing complexity of need for referrals to specialist services within the Group.

We expect to see the benefit during the second half of the year and during 2021 of a number of larger specialist services projects.

(2) Children's Services

This division contains children's residential care homes, which includes facilities for children with learning difficulties and emotional behavioural disorders, and specialist schools.

Children's Services capacity is 1,948 (September 2019: 1,933). There has been a net increase of 15 during the first half from new developments across the CareTech and Cambian portfolio. Revenue grew by 9.6% to £121.5m (2019: £110.8m) and EBITDA grew by 9.6% to £29.0m (2019: £26.5m).

The OFSTED ratings for Children's services are 82% Good or Outstanding.

The market for specialist children's residential and education placements is estimated to be £5.1bn(v) and growing, driven by population growth and increasing survival rates of the current addressable population, as well as a greater awareness and, in certain cases, increased incidence of certain conditions amongst the underlying population.

(3) Foster Care

Fostering is an important part of our care pathway and represents a good family based alternative to residential care. In line with the rest of our portfolio we have focussed on more specialised fostering for those with a higher acuity need and support. We continue to train our foster carers with the skills required to manage more complex work and have linked the Fostering division with our residential team for children so that we can maintain an effective care pathway.

Whilst there has been a decrease in availability of placements due to COVID-19 restrictions to 1,129 (September 2019: 1,178), occupancy has not been impacted. Revenues for the division increased by 7.3% to £21.0mand EBITDA by 3.5% to £3.7m.

The OFSTED ratings for Foster Care is 100% Good or Outstanding.

The market size of foster care across England is worth £2bn(v) and growing given increased demand for a new family care environment which offers those we care for. Not only does this provide care within an ordinary family home setting but provides Commissioners a cost effective option.

Net debt

At 31 March 2020, the Group's net debt had decreased by £3.7m to £287.4m compared with net debt of £291.1m at 30 September 2019.

As at the end of March, the Group has immediately available liquidity of £60m, comprising £35m of available cash and £25m of undrawn revolver. The Group's existing long-term debt, totalling £322m, matures in 2022 and 2023. The financial covenants attached to our committed facilities are that EBITDA should be no less than 4 times interest, net debt should be no more than 4.5 times EBITDA and Loan-to-value should not be higher than 62.5%. As at 31 March 2020, we were operating comfortably within these ratios.

CareTech continues to have a strong active pipeline of investment in new properties, conversion work on properties acquired and bolt-on acquisition opportunities and will look to deploy free cash flow into these projects whilst reducing net debt/ EBITDA in the medium term to under 3.0x.

Impact of IFRS 16

A new accounting standard, IFRS 16 Leases, was adopted with effect from 1 October 2019. The standard requires leases which were previously treated as operating leases to be recognised as a lease liability with the associated asset capitalised and treated as a right of use asset.

The Group elected to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective approach, which means that comparative results for H1 2019 are not restated. On 1 October 2019, £71.6m of leases were recognised as liabilities on adoption of the standard and £72.1m capitalised as right of use assets.

The financial impacts of IFRS 16 on H1 2020 are set out in the table below.

The changes in accounting resulting from the implementation of IFRS 16 will not affect the way liquidity is assessed against the Group's banking covenants, which will continue to be assessed as though the accounting rules had not changed. As such, headline financial leverage will continue to be measured on a consistent (i.e. 'frozen GAAP') basis in 2020 and the Group continues to target a headline financial leverage, excluding the increase in leverage associated with the implementation of IFRS 16, of below 3.0x in the medium term.

Our People

The Group's annualised retention rate sits at 75% and when compared with the industry average of under 70%, our retention rate remains favourable. Recruitment during the period and beyond continues to improve and applications have increased since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

CareTech remains committed to building the best leadership and workforce through skills enhancement and development of its staff. It is in the pilot stages of adding modules centred on 'Essential Skills for Care' to its induction programme. This is an innovative approach to providing a sound platform for our staff to help manage their career pathway with CareTech. This continuing commitment to learning and development will greatly enhance the delivery of great quality of care for individuals supported by the Group.

Additionally in the first six month of the trading year our Learning and Development Division has delivered 195 learning intervention courses. The training consists of statutory and mandatory elements, along with specific training for staff to enhance positive outcomes for the people we support. CareTech also has an in house Apprenticeship Training provider, DHA Learning Services, and up to the end of March 2020 over 900 staff were enrolled on an apprenticeship programme.

The Group launched an approved option scheme for employees ('CSOP') and a separate share scheme for executives ('EXSOP') in October and November 2019, respectively, which has resulted in over 500 Managers and Executives either being granted share options or holding jointly owned shares in CareTech. The Directors believe the Group's share schemes play an important part of staff incentivisation and retention. Over the coming months a further Save-as-you Earn ('SAYE') scheme will be launched and will be open to all colleagues. The 2016 SAYE scheme saw hundreds of staff gaining from participating in the scheme.

The Group was also immensely proud to launch the COVID-19 Staff Fund, a £1m fund set up by the Board to support our staff and their families through this unprecedented time which has brought many challenges for us all.During this period we have prioritised the wellbeing of our employees by focussing our support on their physical and mental health and have introduced new health and safety measures to all our services.

Social Responsibility

As a leading provider of specialist social care, we have the opportunity to support the wider social care sector. The CareTech Foundation, an independent grant-making corporate foundation in the UK social care sector, was set up with this objective in mind. Notable achievements over the last six months include:

· Increasing impact delivered through the Foundation's Partnership Grants, with some 105,000 beneficiaries supported directly and indirectly to date as set out in the Foundation's recently-published Impact Report (https://www.caretechfoundation.org.uk/impact-report-2018-2019/). The Company continues to provide additional in kind support, such as the recent visit to Pakistan by our Specialist Services team to advise on British Asian Trust's mental health programme

· Its headline support, alongside the company, of the Care Sector Ball 2019 which raised £200,000 for the Care Workers Charity and Alzheimer's Society

· Growth in the range of Community Grants provided to local causes, including: provision of state of the art equipment for a school for those with autism in London, support of the Inclusive Sports Festival in Birmingham; and, a series of five grants nominated by staff at CareTech's Greenfields School for charitable projects in their local community

· A significant increase in the support provided through the Foundation's Staff Hardship Fund and its match-funding scheme to support staff members' charitable fundraising.

As previously announced, to further support the CareTech Charitable Foundation, the Group has agreed to donate one million new ordinary CareTech shares to the Foundation ('New Shares'). This donation will provide the Foundation with additional income and demonstrates the Group's commitment to wider society, to its staff, and its desire to play a strong leadership role within the social care sector. In connection with the donation, the CareTech Foundation will enter into a lock-up undertaking not to sell the New Shares without the CareTech Board's approval. Application has been made for admission of the New Shares to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange ('Admission'), with issue of the New Shares and Admission expected to take place on or around 22 June 2020.

Dividend

Our policy to increase the dividend broadly in line with the movement in underlying diluted earnings per share continues. Given the consistent earnings growth and cash generation, the Board is therefore declaring an interim dividend of 4.0p (2019: 3.75p) per share, to be paid on 23 November 2020 to shareholders on the Register of Members on 22 October 2020 with an associated record date of 23 October 2020. The Ordinary shares of CareTech will be marked ex-dividend on 22 October 2020.

Outlook and prospects

The Group has a resilient and proven business model and during these uncertain times has a robust financial position. We continue, through our staff teams and operational leadership, to manage services exceptionally well through COVID-19. The actions being taken, and continuing to be taken, ensure that we are realising only minimal operational and financial impacts relating to COVID-19, and we are confident in meeting market expectations for the full year.

We are recognised in the sector for providing first-class social care which represents good value and is focussed on providing high quality care to our service users. We have increased our stakeholder engagement and are committed to working with Local Authorities and Regulators to deliver more innovative services focussed on delivering positive outcomes for individuals.

Notes

1. Accounting policies

This interim report has been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies expected to be adopted for the year ending 30 September 2020. These are anticipated to be in accordance with the Group's accounting policies as set out in the latest annual financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2019 together with the adoption of IFRS 16.

All International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS'), International Accounting Standards ('IAS'') and interpretations currently endorsed by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and its committees as adopted by the EU and as required to be adopted by AIM-listed companies have been applied. AIM-listed companies are not required to comply with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and accordingly the Company has taken advantage of this exemption.

In the current year, the following new and revised standards and interpretations have been adopted:

IFRS 16

Leases

IFRIC 23

Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

Amendments to IAS28 (Oct 2017)

Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

Amendments to IFRS 9 (Oct 2017)

Financial Instruments

Amendments to IAS 19 (Feb 2018)

Employee Benefits

The annual improvements 2015-2017

Business Combinations, Joint Arrangements, Income tax and Borrowing costs

The amendments and interpretations listed above which were adopted did not affect the amounts reported in these interim financial statements, other than the impact of IFRS 16 is explained in note 8.

The financial information in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts for the six months ended 31 March 2020 and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2019. Financial information for the year ended 30 September 2019 has been derived from the consolidated audited accounts for that period which were unqualified.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months to 31 March 2020 have not been audited or reviewed by auditors pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on Review of Interim Financial Information.

This unaudited interim report was approved by the Board on 18 June 2020.

Going concern

The Group is financed by bank loan facilities that mature in 2022 and 2023. The Directors have considered the Group's forecasts and projections, and the risks associated with their delivery, and are satisfied that the Group will be able to operate within the covenants imposed by bank loan facilities for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the condensed consolidated financial information. In relation to available cash resources, the Directors have had regard to both cash at bank and a £25m committed undrawn revolving credit facility. The Group has undertaken extensive activity to identify and mitigate its exposure to plausible risks which may arise from COVID-19. Based on the Directors' current assessment of the likelihood of the COVID-19 risks arising together with their assessment of the planned mitigating actions being successful, the Directors have concluded it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.

2. Segmental information

IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be determined based on the Group's internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision Maker ('CODM'). The CODM has been determined to be the Chief Executive Officer as he is primarily responsible for the allocation of resources to segments and the assessment of the performance of each of the segments.

The CODM uses underlying EBITDA as reviewed at monthly Executive Committee meetings as the key measure of the segments' results as it reflects the segments' underlying trading performance for the period under evaluation. Underlying EBITDA is a consistent measure within the Group.

Inter-segment turnover between the operating segments is not material.

The interim results report segmental information on the Group's three operating divisions (and the comparative information has been represented on this basis):

· Adults Services;

· Children's Services; and

· Foster Care.

The condensed segmental results for the six months ended 31 March 2020, six months ended 31 March 2019 and year ended 30 September 2019 and the reconciliation of the segment measures to the respective statutory items included in the consolidated financial information are as follows:

Operations of the Group are primarily carried out in the UK, the Company's country of domicile. On 4 February 2020 the Group completed the acquisition of the AS Group, registered in the United Arab Emirates. All other revenues arise within the UK and all non-current assets are likewise located in the UK. No single external customer amounts to 10% or more of the Group's revenues.

No asset and liability information is presented above as this information is not allocated to operating segments in the regular reporting to the Group's CODM and are not measures used by the CODM to assess performance and to make resource allocation decisions.

3. Non underlying items

Non underlying items are those items of financial performance which, in the opinion of the Directors, should be disclosed separately in order to improve the readers understanding of the trading performance of the Group. Non underlying items comprise the following:

7. Business Combinations

On the 4 February 2020 Caretech Holdings plc acquired a 51% interest in AS Investments Holding Limited and AS1 Investments Holding Limited ('the AS Group') which holds a majority equity interest in an out-patient facility in Abu Dhabi and a mental health outpatient group of clinics (the 'Investment'). The initial consideration for the investment is £7.2m (which included £0.7m contingent consideration satisfied in May 2020), and a performance driven earn-out mechanism of up to £1.6m to be paid out in 2021.

As part of the acquisition the acquiree shareholders, who as part of the acquisition are now shareholders of Caretech Holdings plc., have provided a cash loan to the AS Group of £1.8m to be used for investment in future growth. This has resulted in a shareholder loan as noted in the cash flow statement.

The AS Group was established in 2015 to introduce best in class mental healthcare services in the Middle East and North Africa region. The Group has an agreement with a leading NHS Foundation Trust Hospital in the mental healthcare arena in the UK for the provision of services in the greater Middle Eastern area. The current operations comprise an out-patient facility in the emirate of Abu Dhabi offering the following services: child and adolescent mental healthcare services, adult psychiatry and psychology services, training, education, to professionals and bespoke services to schools. In addition, the Group owns a majority equity interest in a premier mental health outpatient group of clinics focussing on providing highest quality specialised medical care for neurological, psychiatric and psychological conditions. Key service offerings include psychiatry, psychology, occupational therapy and rehabilitation.

CareTech has been evaluating opportunities for international expansion, believing the Care Pathways strategy successfully delivered in the UK is equally applicable in other territories. The UAE is an attractive market because the need for improved capacity and expertise in specialist social care, special education needs and mental health services has been recognised and is expected to receive significant focus in the coming years.

The book values attributable to the acquisition were £2.0m net assets and provisional fair value and adjustments were £10.1m.

Goodwill arises as a result the surplus of consideration over the fair value of the separately identifiable assets acquired.

Costs relating to this acquisition are expensed in the Income Statement in accordance with IFRS3 and are identified in note 3 non underlying items.

Goodwill is attributable to the future economic benefits arising from assets which are not capable of being individually identified and separately recognised, these include value of the assembled workforce within the business acquired.

8. Impact of IFRS 16 - Accounting for leases

IFRS 16 'Leases' has been adopted by the Group on 1 October 2019 for the financial year ending 30 September 2020. IFRS 16 primarily changes lease accounting for lessees. Under the new standard, lease agreements give rise to the recognition of an asset representing 'right of use' assets, recognised on the balance sheet for almost all leases. This has resulted in a significant increase in both assets and liabilities recognised. The costs of operating leases previously included within operating costs has been split and the financing element of the charge is reported within finance expenses whilst the total expense recognised in the Income Statement over the life of each lease will be unaffected by the standard.

The Group elected to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective approach, which means that comparative results for 2018 are not restated. On 1 October 2019, £71.6m of leases were recognised as liabilities on adoption of the standard and £72.1m capitalised as right of use assets

The following assumptions are used when applying IFRS 16:

· The discount rates to be used to calculate the financing component is the Group's incremental cost of borrowing, which for this assessment, as the Directors consider that all of the leases included in each of these categories have similar characteristics, are as below;

- property - 3.5%;

- motor vehicles - 2.6%;

- equipment - 2.5%

· All short-term leases which expire on or before 30 September 2020 are excluded.

· All low value leases as defined in IFRS 16 have been excluded.

The financial impacts of IFRS 16 on H1 2020 are set out in the table below.
