Contrary to expectation, 2007 turned out to be a very difficult year for Søndagsavisen a-s.
The consolidated revenue was DKK 1,737.7 million, which is 4 % higher than in 2006.
The consolidated operating profit was DKK 45.2 million, which is DKK 134.8 million lower than in 2006.
The consolidated profit before tax was DKK 30.3 million, which is DKK 144.2 million lower than in 2006.
The results are in accordance with the most recently published expectations.
Strongly intensified competition, falling prices, a declining total market and higher distribution costs, including distribution salaries in particular, meant that the Group's net profit for 2007 was significantly lower than expected.

Revenue from the Danish activities rose moderately by 4 % from DKK 1,353.4 million in 2006 to DKK 1,404.1 million in 2007. Operating profit, on the other hand, declined sharply from DKK 155.3 million in 2006 to DKK 7.8 million in 2007, due primarily to causes within newspaper publication and distribution.
Competition intensified in the market for distribution of unaddressed printed matter in Denmark. Increased competition led to falling prices, which is a significant cause of the lower profit. The volume of unaddressed printed matter and newspapers grew less than expected and this together with an increase in the number of households with "No advertisements, please" signs caused the total number distributed to drop compared with 2006.
Distribution costs, which are mainly wage and salary costs, rose disproportionately in 2007 due to the general shortage of labour. Forbruger-Kontakt built up national mid-week distribution in the first quarter of 2007. However, the distribution costs were much higher than expected, so the mid-week coverage was subsequently reduced again.
In addition, packaging costs rose at Forbruger-Kontakt's two distribution terminals in Taastrup and in Tilst near Århus. Printed matter has generally become heavier, which makes efficient handling difficult. Conversion of the six packing lines has been started in order to achieve greater packing efficiency. The conversion made it necessary to make a DKK 18.5 million writedown on plant and machinery in 2007.
The market for retail ads was much more competitive in 2007 than in 2006, and Søndagsavisen lost market shares because of intensified price competition. At the same time, the market for national advertising did not develop as expected, so in the middle of the year it was decided to discontinue the North Jutland edition.
In January 2007, Søndagsavisen and OFiR introduced a coordinated ad campaign with the aim to become Denmark's largest medium in the recruitment-ad market. Substantial investments were made in marketing, software development and in an increase in the sales force. Søndagsavisen achieved high growth rates in the market for recruitment ads, particularly in the Jutland editions. As several of the new online functions were delayed, OFiR was unable to achieve the estimated sales in 2007.
Competition in the printing market was intensified and Helsingør Dagblad lost several printing jobs towards the end of 2007. In addition, an edition competing with Helsingør Dagblad's local weekly was launched. This, too, affected results negatively.
The results of the Group's associated company LokalAvisen Holding ApS, which publishes the local mid-week newspapers Fjordbyerne Frederikssund and Fjordbyerne Roskilde did not come up to expectations. As a result, the capital contribution was written down partially by a total amount of DKK 5.0 million.
In Sweden revenue rose by DKK 16.1 million, or 6 %, to DKK 269.1 million in 2007. Operating profit in 2007 was DKK 30.9 million, up DKK 9.4 million on 2006.
In 2006, the advertisement market improved thanks to the Swedish parliamentary elections. Otherwise, market trends from 2006 to 2007 were generally flat in Sweden where the job segment increased while the market for housing ads declined. Despite this general trend, Søndagsavisen's Swedish subsidiary GISAB succeeded in increasing revenue, and GISAB improved its market share in housing ads in particular.
GISAB's principal activity is the publication of the free weekly newspaper "Mitt i", which is published in 31 individual editions in Greater Stockholm. GISAB also publishes five local newspapers outside Stockholm, which in 2007 had higher growth rates and improved earnings as a result of the implementation of concepts and utilisation of synergies from "Mitt i".
In September 2007, Södertälje Posten was acquired. For many years, GISAB has been publishing a newspaper in the Södertälje area, and the acquisition makes it possible to merge the two newspapers and realise synergy gains.
Thanks to amendments to Swedish legislation, Swedish companies with newspaper publication activities will obtain repayment of the advertising tax that was paid in 2007. The amended legislation increased the revenue and the profit from the Swedish activities by DKK 7.8 million in 2007 and accounts for a significant part of the improved profit performance compared with the previous year.
Norsk Avisdrift's revenue in 2007 was DKK 38.9 million, which is at the same level as the revenue in 2006.
To cut costs, the circulation in Stjørdal was reduced, and the commercial newspaper Byens Næringsliv was inserted into Byavisa Trondheim.
The operating profit of Norsk Avisdrift in 2007 was DKK 0.7 million, which represents an improvement of DKK 0.9 million compared with 2006.
MatchWork was successful in the UK in 2007, increasing revenue by 25 %.
The building up of a German and a Swedish MatchWork office progresses as planned.
Consolidated revenue from the Group's total newspaper and distribution activities amounted to DKK 1,646.7 million in 2007, up by 4 % on the previous year. Operating profit, on the other hand, was significantly lower, amounting to DKK 47.2 million in 2007 compared with DKK 173.6 million in 2006.
The revenue from the Group's Internet activities came to DKK 91.0 million in 2007, representing growth of DKK 13.3 million, or 17 %. Operations returned a loss of DKK -2.0 million in 2007. This result was DKK 8.4 million lower than in 2006.
The main causes of the significantly lower results from the Internet activities are the coordinated ad campaign launched by Søndagsavisen and OFiR in 2007 with the objective of expanding the Group's position as the largest actor in the market for recruitment ads. An increase in the sales labour force, investment in new online facilities as well as marketing were significant elements of the campaign and led to substantially higher costs. However, delay in the development of the new online facilities meant that the job portal did not achieve the expected revenue growth and market share.
The MatchWork activities developed as planned, with high growth rates driven by the activities in the UK in particular. Also the internationalisation strategy with expansions in Germany and Sweden progressed as planned.
In 2007, FORUM.dk focused on developing new forward-oriented products. Revenue was lower in 2007 compared with 2006 due to reorganisation. At the end of the year the organisation and product offerings were in place.
At 1 January 2007, OFiR a-s increased its ownership interest in MDA Holding ApS, whose primary activity is to operate BoligPortal.dk. The ownership interest was increased from 50 % to 77.5 %. As a result, the company is recognised as a subsidiary in 2007. Previously it was recognised as a joint venture.
BoligPortal.dk is Denmark's largest portal for housing rentals. It has more than 450,000 visitors every month. The activity develops very favourably and better than expected.
At 1 November 2007, the company Min Reklame ApS was acquired. MinReklame ApS operates the portal MinReklame.dk and is the leading company within digital advertising for retail chains in Denmark. MinReklame.dk distributes, among other things, printed matter on a digital basis to more than 150,000 consumers per month.
As future growth is especially expected to be generated by the online activities, it was decided to expand the Executive Board by one manager. On 8 October 2007, Hans Henrik Lund took up his position as manager and member of the Executive Board of Søndagsavisen a-s, with responsibility for the Group's total Media-Online activities.
The Group's poor financial performance has made it necessary to focus on innovation and commercial development of the Group's core business areas. In that connection, managerial and organisational changes have been made.
As stated in Announcement No. 15-07 of 25 September 2007, Benny Juul Lundgaard resigned as CEO and member of the Executive Board of Søndagsavisen a-s. For five years, Benny Juul Lundgaard was responsible for the Group's distribution activities, including Forbruger-Kontakt. Furthermore, Announcement No. 17-07 of 8 October 2007 stated that on 24 October 2007 Christian Lanng Nielsen would take up his position as CEO of the Group's total distribution activities and become a member of the Executive Board of Søndagsavisen a-s.
Moreover, cost adaptation to the changed market conditions was commenced. At the same time, increased focus was placed on strengthening the organisation's competencies.
In 2008, consolidated revenue is expected to be DKK 1,600 – 1,650 million. Expectations for consolidated profit before tax in 2008 are DKK 0 - 20 million. The Group's total operating investments are expected to amount to DKK 70 million.
The expectations for the profit performance in 2008 are disappointing, and the year will be used to bring the Group forward into a position where we will again be able to produce satisfactory results.
Market developments and intensified competition have reduced the profitability of the newspaper and distribution markets. This necessitates a new mindset and commercial development of the core business in Denmark.
The strategy and evaluation of the present commercial basis of the Group are being revised, and the Group's future growth is largely expected to be generated by online activities. Expansion of newspaper and distribution activities outside of Denmark is therefore stopped.
The growth in the online activities is expected to be generated both organically and through acquisitions. To finance the potential acquisition of online activities, a process, which aims at selling Gratistidningar I Sverige AB, Norsk Avisdrift AS and MatchWork World Wide A/S has been initiated.
It is believed that the three companies represent considerable value, both in absolute terms and in relation to the Group's overall market cap.
High interest from potential buyers is expected as the three companies are all healthy, well run and hold an attractive market position in the markets where they operate.
In the interest of the continued operations the possibilities of a sale will be evaluated as soon as possible. If the uncertainty at the financial markets or other issues refrain the Group from achieving a price, which is in line with the Group's perception of the companies' value the companies will not be sold and continue to be run and grown inside the Group.
The work on expanding the Group's online activities will under all circumstances be intensified. In fact, there is an ongoing process involving the addition of more specialist and managerial competence in this area. During the year, a more strongly focused strategy is expected to be launched for the online activities.
The expectations for the distribution activities in Denmark in 2008 are characterised by substantial uncertainty relating to the revenue and profit performance. Management is therefore charged with the important job of restoring stability, predictability and a sound economy in the business.
Like the other initiatives, the conversion of the packing systems at the distribution terminals is expected to reduce the cost base of the distribution business in the long term. The salary expenses, on the other hand, especially those relating to the distribution of the printed matter, are expected to be under pressure due to the low unemployment, which makes it difficult to recruit and retain distributors.
The revenue and profit of Helsingør Dagblad A/S are expected to be lower in 2008 compared with 2007, reflecting a declining printing market and increased competition in the local newspaper market.
The market for recruitment ads is believed to remain at a high level in 2008, while the market for other advertisements is expected to be adversely affected by the Danish economy and the price competition among the free dailies and the rest of the newspaper market including Søndagsavisen.
The organisation and product portfolio of FORUM.dk are now in place. 2008 should show a profit and positive growth rates on a par with the general growth rates in the Internet market.
Most of BoligPortal.dk's growth has so far been generated in the market in Jutland. In 2008, the focus will be on increasing the market share in Greater Copenhagen.
Total Internet activities are expected to deliver a profit for 2008.
In Sweden, the aim is still to increase the revenue within retail trade and job ads in particular despite a generally flat market. Furthermore, the process of incorporating concepts and utilising synergies from "Mitt i" is continued in connection with the expansion of the newspaper editions outside Stockholm. In 2008, moderate revenue growth and improved results are anticipated as a result of continued rationalisation and efficiency improvements.
In Norway the revenue in 2008 is expected to be at the same level as in 2007, and a profit is expected to be returned.
MatchWork UK is expected to show continued growth. However, revenue may be affected negatively measured in Danish kroner due to the weakening of the British pound. The building up of the activities in Germany and Sweden are expected to continue to develop positively.
The Group's total operating investments are expected to be of the order of DKK 70 million. Investments comprise IT solutions and IT hardware at a total amount of approx. DKK 44 million and an investment of approx. DKK 26 million in plant and machinery at the two distribution terminals in Taastrup and in Tilst near Århus.
For approval at the general meeting on 4 April 2008, the Board of Directors recommends that no dividend be paid due to the Group's performance for the year. In 2006, the dividend rate was 20 %.
The Group's total gross profit for 2007 was DKK 475.6 million, representing a gross margin of 27.4 %. The gross profit in 2007 was DKK 85.3 million lower than in 2006, mainly reflecting higher production costs within distribution activities.
In connection with a conversion of Forbruger-Kontakt's two distribution terminals in Taastrup and in Tilst near Århus, a total writedown of DKK 18.5 million was made on plant and machinery. This, too, has a negative effect on the year's gross profit.
Selling and marketing expenses amounted to DKK 205.0 million in 2007, which is DKK 24.6 million, or 14 %, more than in 2006. The increase is primarily driven by the coordinated advertising campaign, which was launched by OFiR and Søndagsavisen in 2007 with the objective of expanding the market position within recruitment advertisements.
Total administrative expenses amounted to DKK 231.0 million in 2007. The administrative expenses rose by DKK 25.6 million, or 12 %, compared with the previous year. The increase is due to the generally higher level of activity, which is, among other things, reflected in higher staff costs.
The share of the profits/(losses) of associates after tax was DKK -7.5 million against a profit of DKK 2.1 million in 2006. The negative development is mainly due to a partial writedown of the capital contributed to the Group's associate LokalAvisen Holding ApS. The writedown totalled DKK 5.0 million.
The Group's profit before tax was DKK 30.3 million in 2007, corresponding to an EBT margin of 2 %. The profit was DKK 144.2 million lower than in 2006, due primarily to strongly increased competition, falling prices, a falling total market and higher distribution costs.
The Group's total tax is DKK 6.2 million and corresponds to an effective tax rate of 20.5 %. The tax rate is affected by non-recognised tax assets and the effect of the reduction of the Danish corporation tax rate from 28 % to 25 %.
The year's total investments in intangible assets and non-current assets amounted to DKK 129.7 million.
Forbruger-Kontakt's distribution terminal at Taastrup was expanded, and plant and machinery in both Taastrup and in Tilst near Århus were converted and expanded. The related investments in buildings and plant and machinery totalled DKK 71 million. Investments were also made in hardware and software as well as other operating assets related to maintenance of the existing business.
The year's cash flows in 2007 amounted to DKK -112.4 million.
Cash flows from operating activities in 2007 amounted to DKK 108.7 million, which is DKK 73.7 million lower than in the previous year. However, the reduction, which is due to lower operating results, is to some extent compensated for by a lower payment of corporation tax.
Cash flows from investing activities in 2007 of DKK -165.1 million were increased by DKK -39.4 million compared with the previous year. The increase was driven by higher investments in intangible assets and non-current assets as well as purchases of subsidiaries, which mainly comprised Södertälje Posten in Sweden, MinReklame ApS and the increased ownership interest in MDA Holding ApS.
Purchases of treasury shares at a total amount of DKK 23.5 million accounted for the greater part of the negative development of cash flows from financing activities, which in 2007 amounted to DKK -56.0 million against DKK -20.5 million in 2006.
The Group's free cash flow was DKK -24.7 million in 2007, which is a reduction of DKK 165.5 million compared with 2006. The cash conversion rate was thus -54.7 % in 2007 against 78.2 % in 2006.
The Group's net interest-bearing debt increased from DKK 100.7 million at 31 December 2006 to DKK 207.8 million at year-end 2007. The debt is composed of equal amounts of long-term mortgage credit financing and short-term operating credit.
Net interest-bearing debt as a ratio of EBITDA rose from 0.4 in 2006 to 1.7 in 2007 and the interest cover was 18.3 at year-end 2006 against 4.2 at year-end 2007.
Including the increased net interest-bearing debt the Group's financial gearing rose from 0.2 in 2006 to 0.4 in 2007.
The Group's invested capital amounted to DKK 698.0 million at year-end 2007, increasing by DKK 92.0 million against the previous year. The increase reflects the increased net interest-bearing debt. The increase in invested capital in connection with the lower result is reflected in the return on invested capital (ROIC). ROIC was significantly reduced in 2007, being 6.9 % compared with 2006 when the return on invested capital was 33.3 %.
On 31 December 2007, the Group's equity amounted to DKK 490.1 million, down DKK 15.3 million on the previous year. The negative trend primarily reflects distributed dividend and purchases of treasury shares, which, however, are partially compensated for by the net profit for the year.
In the course of 2007, the Group purchased a total of 300,000 treasury shares in a total amount of DKK 23.5 million equivalent to an average price of DKK 78.3. At year-end 2007, the total holding of treasury shares was 1,518,000.
The Group's Annual Report for 2007 is expected to be issued on Tuesday 18 March 2008.
