Logicacmg Interim Management Statement


TIDMLOG

30 April 2009

Logica reports strong Q1 orders

Logica is today issuing an interim management statement based on unaudited
results for the first quarter ended 31 March 2009.

2009 2008 Q1 growth % (pro Q1 growth %
actual reported forma*) (actual)

Q1 REVENUE (GBPm) 954 856 0 11




* Q1 2008 revenue adjusted for the impact of acquisitions and disposals at Q1
2009

exchange rates was GBP958 million





Revenue for the first quarter in line with 2008 on a pro forma basis and up 11%
on a reported basis despite a challenging economic environment

First quarter orders increased 16% over 2008 on a pro forma basis, with two
major outsourcing deals driving book to bill of 122%

Accelerated cost savings of GBP75 million on track

Cash performance in the first quarter underpinning year end net debt/EBITDA
guidance

Second half market conditions unlikely to be much different from first half of
2009



Andy Green, CEO of Logica, said:

"I am pleased that we maintained revenues for the first quarter at last year's
level. Order performance remained strong, boosted by outsourcing wins with
TeliaSonera and the UK's National Policing Improvement Agency. We are
executing against our Programme for Growth, which we expect will deliver
margins at least in line with 2008 despite difficult market conditions."



Overview

Revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was GBP954 million, with positive currency
impact contributing to 11% reported revenue growth (2008 reported: GBP856
million). On a pro forma basis, first quarter revenue was in line with 2008
with expected weakness in Financial Services and IDT offset by growth
elsewhere.

Outsourcing Services revenue was up 9% and represented 33% of total revenue
(2008: 30%). Revenue in the more cyclical non-outsourcing business (Consulting
and Professional Services) declined 4%, with the most significant impact in the
Netherlands and some slowing in Sweden.

Strong first quarter order intake, with orders up 16% over 2008, resulted in a
book to bill for the first three months of 122% (2008: 105%). This was driven
by particularly good order intake in Outsourcing Services, with book to bill at
131% (2008: 99%). Orders growth in the non-outsourcing business was 6% on a
pro forma basis, resulting in a book to bill of 118% (2008: 107%). We had a
number of significant new wins in our high growth areas. While the overall
pipeline of opportunities remains good, the level of orders and revenue in
Consulting and Professional Services in the first half is likely to be impacted
by increased pricing pressure, longer customer decision-making cycles and a
lower number of working days in the second quarter than in 2008.



Programme for Growth

The Programme for Growth remains at the core of our strategy to deliver real
value to our shareholders. The plan, which we initially set out in April 2008,
aims to reduce costs and reinvest in strengthening the sales capability of
Logica and to improve execution with the intention of making us our customers'
most trusted innovation partner. In November 2008 and February 2009, we
announced that we intended to accelerate the cost savings which underpin the
programme and to slow the investments in light of market conditions. Our 2009
cost savings of GBP75 million and investments of GBP30 million in sales and
marketing remain on track and the expected overall cost of the programme
remains at GBP145 million.



Outlook

Our strategic shift over the last twelve months to improve our sales capability
and contest and win more long-term, outsourcing contracts resulted in a strong
order intake in the last quarter of 2008 and in the first quarter of 2009. As
a result, we expect to see Outsourcing revenue benefiting increasingly through
2009. In Consulting and Professional Services, the market has become more
difficult through the first quarter, as customers look to reduce costs in the
context of a more challenging economic environment. In light of this, overall
first half revenue is likely to show a slight decline.

Second half market conditions are unlikely to be much different from those in
the first half of 2009. Despite market conditions, we expect to deliver full
year adjusted operating margin at least in line with last year.



Employees

We had 39,812 employees at the end of March, compared to 39,937 as at the end
of December 2008. Six month annualised attrition was 11% at the end of March
(14% at the end of December 2008). We now expect it to be below 8% for the
full year.

With attrition declining significantly, we have largely stopped recruiting in
our larger European geographies and are taking action to maximise utilisation.
In addition, we are acting decisively to reduce headcount further in the
geographies where we see significant weakness. At the end of March, we had
around 5,150 employed in our nearshore and offshore centres. We will continue
to prioritise growing these centres as onshore headcount declines.



Revenue by geography

The basis on which we are reporting revenue has changed to reflect our new
management structure and the prior year comparatives have been restated below.
The main change is that Germany is reported within the International segment.

2009 2008 Q1 growth % Q1 growth
Q1 REVENUE (GBPm) actual restated (pro forma*) % (actual)

Nordics 264 236 2 12

*A full set of 2008 revenue comparatives by country adjusted for the impact of
acquisitions and disposals and at Q1 2009 exchange rates is available on the
Logica website.

** Luxembourg is currently included in the revenue numbers for France,
rather than Benelux.



Nordics

Revenue was up 2% on a pro forma basis to GBP264 million (2008: GBP259 million),
with strong first quarter growth in Finland and Norway more than offsetting the
expected weakness in Sweden. Slowing in Sweden was primarily attributable to
the IDT segment, where we saw declines in non-outsourcing revenue.

Book to bill was 136% (2008: 117%), with a 18% increase in orders over the same
quarter last year. Both Sweden and Finland contributed good outsourcing order
intake in the quarter.





niche 010
0
France

Revenue was GBP209 million (2008: GBP205 million), up 2% on a pro forma basis
despite a lower number of billable heads than last year. Continued momentum
with Energy and Utilities customers contributed to good revenue growth. The
consulting business was robust despite the more difficult economic
environment.

Book to bill was 133% (2008: 102%), with a 33% increase in orders on last year
resulting from a significant win in Financial Services. We continue to see new
opportunities spread across all sectors.



UK

First quarter revenue in the UK was up 4% on a pro forma basis to GBP182 million
(2008: GBP175 million). Public Sector represented 58% of revenue and was up
10%. The actions taken in 2008 have resulted in good utilisation in the UK
business with more resources allocated to supporting Public Sector growth.

Book to bill was 121% (2008: 102%). A 24% increase in orders over last year
was driven by a GBP76 million, 7-year contract with the National Policing
Improvement Agency (NPIA) to deliver a national database for the Police Service
across the UK, contributing to a good order backlog in the Public Sector. The
pipeline remains more heavily weighted to Public Sector and Telecoms, with
Financial Services continuing to be the most challenging sector.



Benelux

In February, we announced that we would be taking decisive action to respond to
a slowing market. As a result, we substantially changed the leadership team
and transitioned to a new management structure. We are well advanced in our
plans to align the organisation and the cost structure to our new model. The
model will centralise the delivery resources to maximise utilisation and
further reduce the number of subcontractors. As a result of the actions being
taken, we expect to reduce headcount in the Netherlands by around 300.

The trends we saw in the Benelux in the fourth quarter of 2008 continued into
the first quarter, leading to a revenue decline of 11%. Revenue was GBP163
million (Q1 2008: GBP183 million), with both the Netherlands and Belgium seeing
declines in revenue. Stable revenue with Public Sector and Energy and
Utilities clients was insufficient to offset a significant decline in Financial
Services and weakness in IDT.

The nature of the business mix in the Netherlands, which is more heavily
weighted to non-outsourcing business, resulted in a lower book to bill than in
other geographies. A good order performance in the Public Sector and Energy
and Utilities was masked by weaker first quarter order intake in Financial
Services and IDT, resulting in an overall book to bill of 87% (2008: 79%).





International

First quarter revenue in the International business was unchanged on last year
on a pro forma basis at GBP136 million (2008: GBP136 million), with 65% of our
International revenue coming from the Rest of Europe (2008: 68%).

Revenue in the Rest of Europe segment declined 4%. Germany and Iberia were the
largest geographies in this segment, representing 37% and 20% respectively of
total International revenue. (2008: 39% and 21%). First quarter revenue in
Germany declined 8% on a pro forma basis, with the continued impact of the team
which exited towards the end of the first quarter of 2008 and lower headcount
as we reduce numbers in light of a more difficult economic environment.
Outside Europe, revenue was up 9% on a pro forma basis.

Book to bill was 124% (2008: 124%), with good order intake in Central Europe
offsetting slowing in the Rest of World.

Outsourcing Services revenue was up 9% to GBP315 million (2008: GBP289 million).

Book to bill was strong at 131% (2008: 99%), with two major wins over GBP20
million. Orders were up 44% to GBP412 million, with the largest orders in the
quarter coming from the Nordics and the UK.



Minority interests and acquisitions

We have now completed the GBP48 million buyout of minority interests in WM-data,
with the final payment having been made on 10 March 2009.

Operating cashflow and cash performance in line with our expectations continues

Je weet het natuurlijk nooit hoe de markt reageert maar een hogere opening is zeker mogelijk. De pre-opening geeft nu 2 cent hoger aan. Ik heb er voor het eerst wat ondergezet om nog wat binnen te halen, op de eerste paniek, als het licht tegen zou vallen maar schijnbaar gaat dat niet gebeuren vandaag. Door de 90 cent heen is een waarschijnlijker senario maar je weet het nooit.

Mensen die zo kort voor de cijfers nog een advies geven zijn bij mij niet geloofwaardig. Want ik neem aan dat ze de cijfers zo vroeg niet hebben. Schijnbaar spelen daar andere belangen om er voor nog even een sell advies in te gooien. Volgens mij zijn de meeste analisten redelijk positief. Neem Iris daarvoor is het de favoriet in de sector, deze zal vandaag ook wel komen met een analyse van de cijfers en daar hecht ik meer waarde aan dan een in mijn ogen onterecht sell advies 10 dagen voor de cijfers. Ik zou zeggen wacht 10 dagen en geef dat dat advies met onderbouwing van de cijfers.

Logica verhoogt banenreductie in Nederland tot 300
AMSTERDAM (Dow Jones)--De Brits-Nederlandse computerservice onderneming Logica PLC (LON.LN) maakte donderdag bekend dat het aantal banen dat in Nederland geschrapt wordt met 200 zal stijgen tot 300 arbeidsplaatsen.

Chief financial officer Seamus Keating vertelde tijdens een telefonische persconferentie dat in aanvulling op de al aangekondigde 1300 wereldwijd te reduceren banen bij het bedrijf er in Nederland nog eens 200 bij komen als gevolg van een sterk gedaalde vraag naar adviesdiensten.

Volgens Keating is de adviesvraag in Nederland sterk gedaald door de economische crisis, vooral in de financiele sector.

Veel meer banen weg bij Logica Nederland
Telegraaf
Van een onzer redacteuren

LONDEN – De Brits-Nederlandse automatiseerder Logica gaat meer banen schrappen in Nederland. De vorig jaar aangekondigde saneringsronde van 100 ontslagen wordt uitgebreid naar in totaal 300. Dat meldde de top van het bedrijf gisteren tijdens een toelichting op de eerstekwartaalcijfers.
Hoewel Logica in het eerste kwartaal een hogere omzet behaalde, zag het bedrijf vooral een terugloop van de vraag in de divisie ’Advies en Professionele Dienstverlening’. Logica voorziet een verdere daling van de omzet in deze divisie in het tweede kwartaal.
„De voor ons leidende indicatoren geven aan dat de markt in 2009 niet zal verbeteren”, aldus financieel topman Seamus Keating. De marktomstandigheden zijn ook voor Logica zwaarder geworden. Daardoor denkt de automatiseerder dat in de eerste helft van het jaar de omzet waarschijnlijk iets lager zal uitkomen dan vorig jaar.
Bij de presentatie van de jaarcijfers over 2008 zei Logica nog beter te kunnen presteren dan de markt. Nederland is het zorgenkindje van het bedrijf, maar in de Britse en Scandinavische landen meent Logica een goede positie te hebben. In Nederland is de financiële sector, die door de wereldwijde economische problemen sterk onder druk staat, relatief belangrijk voor Logica. Maar ook in Zweden en Duitsland merkt Logica de economische neergang.
Het bedrijf zei niet te verwachten dat de moeilijke marktomstandigheden in de tweede helft van dit jaar sterk zullen verschillen van het eerste halfjaar. Niettemin sprak Logica de verwachting uit een brutowinstmarge te halen die „ten minste” in lijn ligt met die van vorig jaar.


• Logica voorziet dat de omzet daalt in het eerste halfjaar.

De orderontvangst nam in het eerste kwartaal met 16% toe vergeleken met een jaar eerder. Het bedrijf kreeg grote orders van het Scandinavische telecomconcern TeliaSonera en het Britse National Policing Improvement Agency. De omzet in het afgelopen kwartaal nam met 11% toe tot £954 miljoen (€1,06 miljard).
Logica zag de inkomsten uit outsourcing met 9% toenemen. De omzet in die sector is goed voor een derde van de totale inkomsten van Logica.
Beleggers reageerden gisteren negatief op de berichten van Logica. Terwijl de meeste aandelen in Amsterdam stegen, zakte het aandeel Logica met 1,2% naar 86 eurocent.

Logica-ceo: het moet duidelijk zijn wie de leider is
4 mei 2009 | Het Financieele Dagblad

Johan Leupen

Automatiseerder Logica haalt de bezem door zijn Nederlandse tak. De zojuist aangetreden directeur Wilbert Kieboom legt uit hoe hij het nieuwe bedrijf voor zich ziet.

Amsterdam

Toen Logica de Nederlander Wilbert Kieboom in januari naar voren schoof als nieuwe Benelux-directeur, was al meteen helder dat de Nederlandse tak onder het mes zou gaan; Kieboom (ex-coo Atos) heeft de reputatie van meedogenloze saneerder, en bestuursvoorzitter Andy Green had al laten merken dat hij niet tevreden was met de inzakkende winstmarges van de Nederlanders, voorheen voorhoedespeler binnen het concern.

Vorige week was het zover en maakte Logica bekend 300 medewerkers gedwongen ontslag te geven. Kieboom sprak met deze krant over de nieuwe richting die hij wil geven aan de organisatie.

Waarom was dit nodig?

'Dit is een reactie op de prestaties. Concurrenten gaan zeer agressief de markt op, wij konden niet meer mee. Logica heeft veel te lang geopereerd op een veel te hoog kostenniveau.'

Uw voorganger Paul Schuyt heeft niet op tijd ingegrepen?

'Het is volstrekt irrelevant wat mijn voorganger deed. Het verleden is niet slecht geweest. Maar de tijden van toen zijn veranderd. De totale IT-wereld is in zes maanden tijd volledig omgeslagen.'

Waar gaat u mee afrekenen?

'We zijn dwars door de hele organisatie gegaan. Ik trof een structuur aan van autonome cellen, gedecentraliseerde macht. Het nadeel is dat je alles dupliceert. Er waren heel veel mensen die dezelfde dingen deden. Misschien is er zelfgenoegzaamheid ingetreden. Het was broodnodig om de dubbelingen eruit te halen.'

Hoe reageerde men op u?

'Er ontstaan af en toe spanningen, dat is heel normaal, dat weet je van tevoren bij dit soort trajecten. Maar ik moest dit direct adresseren. Deze situatie mocht niet te lang duren. Je mag niet te lang openlaten wie het management is, wie de leiders zijn. Als dat duidelijk is, zul je zien dan mensen zich er vanzelf achter scharen. Ik zal even wat minder populair zijn. Dan is dat maar zo.'

U bent afkomstig van Atos, dat ook wel dozenschuiver van de IT genoemd wordt. Gaat u van Logica een tweede Atos maken?

'Nee, ik ga dit bedrijf beter maken dan Atos. De prijsdruk is het hoogst op het commodity-stuk. We maken hier juist een keus voor meer maatwerk, daar zit de echte toegevoegde waarde. Meteen bij mijn aantreden in januari hebben we erop aangestuurd om alleen nog hoogopgeleiden door de proeftijd heen te laten. Dat was een vooruitziende blik van het management.'

Van u dus.

'Van mij en de andere managers. Zoiets beslis je nooit alleen.'
