Turnover of the 1st SEMESTER 2009/2010

At the end of the first semester of its financial year 2009/2010, the Group achieved a 23.6% turnover growth (-4.1% at constant perimeter and exchange rates) at 287.9 million euros, against 233 million euros the previous financial year.

As regards the second quarter, turnover amounted to 137.4 million euros, therefore an increase of 27.9% (+3.5% at constant perimeter and exchange rates) year on year. The Group completed its first quarter's turnover growth in 15 months, at constant perimeter and exchange rates, year on year.

From the stand point of its operational Areas, the Group presents an inconsistent picture:

1Activities of holding companies and elimination of inter-areas turnover.

2 Growth rates reflect:

  • For South Area, favourable perimeter variation for 56.1%; constant perimeter performance would have been +1.9%.

  • South and North Areas experienced an economic trend turnaround (particularly in France) with respectively a quarter's turnover growth of 13.3%, at constant perimeter, and 5.3%. South Area is still positively impacted by Camif Collectivités acquisition, completed on 1 April 2009.

  • Centre and West Areas remain under economic crisis influence and achieved a quarter's turnover decrease around 7%, year on year.

• Finally, East Area that was hugely impacted by the economic crisis reached same quarter's turnover level than previous financial year.

The Group globally recorded a slight sales increase noticeable since the beginning of the civil year.

The Group's overall financial situation remains "solid". With about 90 million euros in cash and almost no debt, the Manutan Group has the necessary means to pursue its investments, like the implementation of a common information system tool and the construction of its future European Centre at Gonesse (Val d'Oise), that will support its future development.
