Proven Investments reports net profit attributable to shareholders of US$1.32 million or 0.24 US cents per share. In 2014 the company reported profit of US$2.25 million or 0.76 cents per share but included net extraordinary gains of US$1.36 million. Of note total comprehensive income is negative $300,000 after recording a loss $1.6 million in unrealized losses.
Revenue for the three months period net of interest cost amounted to US$5.64 million, an increase of 84.45 percent over the three months ended June 2014 of US$3.06. The increased revenue is mainly from the consolidation of Access Financial Service results into the Group.
For the three months ending June 2015, operating expenses increased by 63 percent to US$3.4 million from US$2.1 million in the prior year period as a result of increases in administrative and general expenses, from the inclusion of PWL Transition and AFS in the financials of the Group.
Proven in the commentary accompanying the quarterly results states that earnings per share is 0.24 US cents but in the financials the company reports it as 0.33 US cents. There is no explanation for the difference and no indication in the report of the number of shares issued, a major omission. The company has 551,595,777 issued ordinary shares according to the Jamaica Stock Exchange which means that earnings is 0.2377 US cents per share or 0.95 US cents for the year. The stock at last traded price of 18.5 US cents is selling at 20 times earnings based on the first quarter results annualised in a market that has an average of 6.5 times this year’s earnings.
