Chair's Statement
2024 is proving to be a much more positive year for Winkworth than 2023, albeit that the first half increase in completed sales has lagged the level of sales agreed. With this uptick, we expect the ratio of sales to rentals within our full year gross revenues to be above the 48:52 ratio achieved in the first half of 2024 and the full year 2023.
Part of this is due to the recovery in demand for houses, an important segment of the market in which Winkworth excels. As has been mentioned previously, we have seen an increased number of families moving home, some down-sizing, some relocating, and some moving up.
We invested in our operations in 2023 with some impact, of course, on our profitability. But we anticipate that this investment will bear fruit towards the end of this year and into 2025.
Over the last six months I have had the enjoyable opportunity of visiting several of our franchisees, some in new offices and some in more established ones, and I have found there is a very strong Winkworth spirit that augurs well for the future. The steps taken to refresh our organisation over the last 18 months have been positively received by our franchisees. From my visits, I see great teamwork, locally focused, with a great selection of property to market and the skill sets to close transactions.
Our equity-owned offices have expanded, and we are targeting good profitability from all four businesses in 2025. I have confidence that these offices are increasingly providing not only an important financial contribution to the Group, but also training grounds for future franchisees. The franchisee who we bought out of Tooting, for example, is now very successfully running Streatham and Herne Hill, having reinvested in these offices with some help from the Group.
Winkworth's strategy is to optimise its network's capacity to offer customers a cross-section of suitable property in both the sales and rental markets, and so to generate a high level of enquiries. Every month our website receives on average 360,000 enquires and delivers over 4,500 enquiries to our offices, which no small, independent company can match. It is the cross-section of property that we handle and the number and quality of the properties on our database that drives our sales and rentals success and defines Winkworth's market position and the power of our long-established brand.
I have great confidence, therefore, in Winkworth's long-term growth prospects. We have extended our network in the London boroughs and some of these extra offices result from expansion by our existing franchisees - we expect this trend to continue. Outside of London, areas such as Exeter, Reading and Norfolk have exciting growth plans for 2025.
Finally, I would like to thank John Nicol, who is retiring as a non-executive director, for his 10 years of service. John has made a very valuable contribution to the group during his tenure and we wish him every success with his future plans.

CEO's Statement
Despite interest rates remaining relatively high in the first half of this year, 2024 has to-date been very encouraging. An increase in sellers coming to the market has drawn out demand from buyers and this, combined with more positive economic news, has led to far better conditions than 2023, when uncertainty over the outlook for interest rates weighed on activity.
Network sales revenue in H1 2024 was up by 9% on H1 2023, but sales agreed is a much stronger 21%, reflecting extended conveyancing times which will push much of this activity into H2 2024 completions. A return to popularity of city living, as post pandemic patterns continued to normalise, but without significant price escalation, led to London recording the highest level of growth, with sales income increasing by 11%, outperforming the average performance of our network.
We were pleased to note that this latest increase in activity meant that, since 2019, our national market share for sales agreed has grown by 36%¹. We have combined this expansion in market share with a resolute focus on delivering on our proposition to clients and we are proud of the fact that, according to the latest data, Winkworth has the highest conversion rate from new instruction to exchange of £1m+ homes of the top ten estate agents in London².
In line with the trend that started in August last year, lettings growth slowed, with network revenue up by 4% in H1 2024 but applicants 3% down on last year, as tenants hit affordability ceilings and the reversal of the move out of London to the country finally settled down, albeit with rental prices remaining at high levels. Our network growth in the country markets, where there is greater affordability, meant that lettings revenue there outperformed the network average, with growth of 8%.
The combination of a slowing of the rental market and an uptick in sales activity meant that our sales to lettings revenue ratio moved from 47:53 in H1 2023 to 48:52% in H1 2024. This healthy balance of income reflects our ability to benefit from a more active sales market, while revenues remain underpinned by our important lettings and management business.
In H1 2024, gross revenues of the franchised network of £27.9m were 6% higher year-on-year (2023: £26.4m). Total sales income was 9% higher at £13.4m (2023: £12.3m) while Lettings and Management increased by 4% to £14.5m (2021: £14.0m).
At £5.14m, Winkworth's revenues were 20% higher than H1 2023 (H1 2023: £4.27m), and profit before taxation rose by 26% to £1.02m (H1 2023: £0.81m). The Group's cash stood at £4.12m at 30 June 2024 (H1 2023: £4.23m) and ordinary dividends of 6.0p per ordinary share were declared for the first half of the year (H1 2023: 5.8p).
This year we have focused on evolving the business, with the appointment of a new executive director to the board and two new non-executives. In addition, we have increased investment into our digital know-how and new business teams to expedite growth, prepare for potential legislative changes and deliver on digital projects to future-proof our business. We believe that these increases in costs will deliver greater revenue growth in the medium term.
We are on track to deliver on our annual target of eight new offices, having in H1 2024 already opened three and with a further five in the pipeline. In addition, we refranchised four offices in H1 2024 and have a further seven refranchises under negotiation. Of this total of 12 new offices or talented new operators, it is planned that 9 will be in the London area.
Our entrepreneurial manager partnerships at our equity-owned offices have continued to grow their market share and revenue contribution, with progress in three out of four of our ventures being above expectations. New management in the fourth has now settled in and this change is expected to bear fruit in 2025.
Outlook
Now that the election is behind us and a government with a strong majority is now in place, ending years of political uncertainty, and with interest rates set to decline, early indications suggest that activity in the property market will increase. Sales agreed have noticeably accelerated since the general election in early July 2024. This increase in activity has been fuelled by the highest number of properties on the market in the last five years and so reflects supply meeting demand rather than demand driving price increases. We therefore expect price increases to be modest in a new era of higher interest rates and taxation.
In the lettings market, we see more uncertainty as the market awaits the implementation of new legislation. We anticipate that there will be a further reduction in supply as landlords exit the market and aren't replaced, particularly in the short term as some look to speed up their exit in anticipation of increases in capital gains tax.
