Geneva chalks up another $6.2 mill in losses

Tuesday 14th of June 2011

The loss compares with the previous year's $5 million net loss and compares with the $1 million net profit forecast in last year's repayment plan.

GFNZ says the shortfall reflects $3.9 million more in write-offs than then projected and "a shortfall in projected income from new lending and third party debt collection activities" of $3.2 million, offset by $1.9 million in operating cost savings.

"While exiting these ledgers is proving costly, unlike the new business model, where there is an opportunity to expand profitability, the old business model ledgers have a finite and reducing cost of exit."

The company says its auditors have raised a fundamental uncertainty over the value of its $2.3 million deferred tax asset. "The company and the group have concluded that it is probable that they will utilise the value of this asset, based on future earnings forecasts. If these forecasts are not achieved, it may be necessary to make further (non-cash) write down(s) of this asset."
