ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A. Review of Financial Results for the six months ended June 30, 2007

Review of financial results

In the first half of 2007, Attica Group operated in the Adriatic Sea, the Greek domestic market and the North Sea with four Superfast vessels, eight Blue Star vessels and the RoRo Marin. The RoRo Nordia has been chartered out to the French company Fret Cetam.

Total revenue for the Group in the first half stood at € 144.8 mln against € 133.1 mln during the same period in 2006, posting an increase of 8.8%. Earnings before taxes, investing and financial results, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased by 36.9% and stood at € 30.1 mln against € 22.0 mln in the same period of 2006. Group's Profit after taxes and minority interests stood at € 42.1 mln against € 1.9 mln in the same period of 2006. It must be pointed out that the above results of the first half 2006 refer to the Group's continuing operations and do not include the three Superfast vessels operation in the Baltic Sea which was sold in April 2006.

The breakdown of the Group's total revenue per market is as follows: Adriatic Sea 49.3%, domestic routes 39.8%, and North Sea 8.6% while other income represents 2.3% of total revenue. The changes in revenue per market compared to the same period of last year are as follows:

  • In the Adriatic Sea revenue increased by 10.4% over a 5.4% decrease in the number of sailings.
  • In the domestic routes revenue increased by 20.3% over a 15.8% increase in the number of sailings.
  • In the North Sea revenue decreased by 10.4% while the number of sailings remained unaltered.

It should be noted that the financial results of the first half of 2006 and 2007 are not directly comparable due to fleet redeployment.

The considerable growth in operating profitability (EBITDA) is attributed to the increase in revenue in the two main Group's operating markets, the Adriatic Sea and the Greek domestic market. At the same time, the vessels' operating expenses increased at a slower pace compared to the increase in revenue mainly due to the reduction by 9% of the average fuel oil price (380cst) during the first half of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. However, it should be mentioned that fuel oil prices keep recording an upward trend. An indicative evidence of this situation is the fact that fuel oil prices of July 2007 have exceeded previous year's highest prices posted in July 2006.

Attica Group's profit after taxes and minority interests grew to Euro 42.1 mln and include extraordinary capital gains of € 12.5 mln from the sale of Superfast X and capital gains of € 27.7 mln from the sale of Group's parent company's total participation in the share capital of Minoan Lines.

Profits after taxes for Attica Holdings S.A. (parent company) stood at € 55.6 mln (€ 22.7 mln in the first half of 2006) and are derived mainly from the dividend of € 29.9 mln received from the subsidiary Superfast Group and from the capital gains of € 27.7 mln from the sale of the total participation in the share capital of Minoan Lines.

An important factor for the proper understanding of first half's results, is the fact that Group sales are highly seasonal particularly in the passenger and private vehicle segments where the highest traffic is observed between July and September while the lowest traffic is observed between November and February. On the other hand, freight sales are not affected significantly by seasonality.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement

Attica Group improved further its strong cash position which stood at € 214.1 mln on 30.06.2007 against € 193.0 mln on 30.06.2006. Group's cash flow from operating activities during the first half 2007, more than doubled and stood at € 18.1 mln against € 7.1 mln compared to the same period in 2006. At the same time, the Group's longterm liabilities have decreased significantly.

It must be noted that parent company Attica Holdings S.A., received as share capital return the amount of € 19.1 mln from its subsidiary Superfast Deka MC, due to the sale of Superfast X.

Developments in the Group

The most important developments for the Group in the current period are:

  • The Group sold in February 2007 the vessel SUPERFAST X for € 112.0 mln. The profit from the sale of the vessel stood at € 12.5 mln and is posted in the results of the first half of 2007. Superfast X which was operating in the Scotland – Belgium route in the North Sea, was replaced by Blue Star 1 as of the end of January 2007.
  • In February 2007 the RoRo Marin was redeployed from the Baltic Sea route to the Patras – Venice route, in the Adriatic Sea.
  • In February 2007 the parent company increased its stake in the share capital of Minoan Lines S.A. to 22.5%. The total participation was sold in June 2007 for € 94.7 mln, leaving a profit of € 27.7 mln.
  • In June 2007, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders decided upon the distribution of dividend for the fiscal year 2006 of € 8.33 mln or Euro 0.08 per share. The payment of the dividend began on Monday 9th July, 2007.

Volumes carried and market analysis

Adriatic Sea

Total carryings for the Superfast fleet (Superfast V, Superfast VI, Superfast XI, Superfast XII) in the routes Patras – Ancona, Patras – Igoumenitsa – Ancona, and Patras – Igoumenitsa – Bari during the first half of 2007 stood at 243,231 passengers, 44,958 private vehicles, and 59,946 freight units. Compared with the same period last year, traffic increased by 29.3% in the passenger traffic segment, by 25.5% in the private vehicle traffic segment, and by 37.2% in the freight unit segment.

The above increase in traffic volumes is attributable to the increase in the load factors and to the increase by 13.5% of the departures.

Since the beginning of February 2007, the Group increased its presence in the Adriatic Sea through the redeployment of the RoRo Marin from the Baltic Sea route to the Patras – Venice route.

Blue Star Group was present in the Adriatic Sea (Patras – Igoumenitsa – Bari route) with one vessel, Blue Horizon, due to the redeployment of Blue Star 1 on the Rosyth – Zeebrugge route in the North Sea. Despite a 46% decrease in the number of sailings, the Group marked a significant improvement in volumes carried and revenue per sailing compared to the same period last year. Total carryings of Blue Star Group for the first half 2007 stood at 55,052 passengers (40.7% decrease compared to the first half of 2006), 7,076 private vehicles (34.8% decrease), and 13,799 freight units (34.8% decrease).

Blue Star Group achieved a positive EBITDA in the Adriatic Sea market during the first half of 2007 (€0.6 mln) against a negative EBITDA during the same period in 2006 (- €0.4 mln).

Overall, Attica Group achieved a considerable increase in EBITDA in the Adriatic Sea operations during the first half of 2007 which stood at € 10.2 mln against € 3.3 mln in the same period of 2006.

Market shares for the Superfast Group on the Greece – Italy- Greece routes stood for the first half of 2007 at 30.5% in passengers (against 24.5% during the same period in 2006), 26.3% in private vehicles (against 22.0% during the same period in 2006), and 26.2% in freight units (against 19.2% during the same period in 2006). The respective shares for the Blue Star Group is 6.9% in passengers (against 12.4%), 3.7% in private vehicles (against 6.1%), and 5.9% in freight units (against 9.8%).

Market shares are derived by the Greek port authorities of Patras and Igoumenitsa.

The Greek Domestic Market

In the Greek domestic market (Piraeus – Cyclades, Rafina – Cyclades and Piraeus – Dodecanese), the Group's subsidiary Blue Star Group achieved a considerable revenue growth and an increase in its operating profitability in the first half of 2006. In the first half of 2007 the sailings increased by 15.8% compared with the same period last year, due to the acquisition of the vessel Diagoras and its deployment in the Piraeus – Dodecanese route. The carryings in the first half of 2007 stood at 1,502,805 passengers (1.9% increase compared to the first half of 2006), 196,759 private vehicles (0.7% increase), and 58,210 freight units (17.9% increase).

Earnings before taxes, investing and financial results, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of Blue Star Group in the Greek domestic market in the first half of 2007 stood at € 18.8 mln against € 15.2 mln in the same period of 2006.

North Sea

The Group operated in the North Sea (Rosyth, Scotland – Zeebruge, Belgium) at the beginning of the year with the vessel Superfast X which was replaced by Blue Star 1 on 29th January 2007. Total carryings on the same number of sailings, stood at 48,538 passengers (1.4% decrease compared to the first half of 2006), 16,342 private vehicles (4.1% increase), and 11,546 freight units (20.3% decrease). It must be noted that the garage capacity of Blue Star 1 is smaller compared to the one of Superfast X that was operating in the North Sea route in the first half of 2006.

Earnings before taxes, investing and financial results, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the first half of 2007 stood at € 0.9 mln against € 3.5 mln in the same period of 2006.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM INFORMATION

To the Shareholders of "Attica Holdings SA"

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying Balance Sheet of "Attica Holdings SA" (the "Company") and the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group") as of 30 June 2007, the related Statements of Income, Changes in Equity and Cash Flows of the Company and the Group for the six-month period then ended and selected explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed interim financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union and applied in interim financial reporting ("IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", to which the Greek Auditing Standards refer. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Greek Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

In our opinion, the content of the interim report of the Board of Directors for the six month period is in agreement with the aforementioned financial statements.

The total number of common bearer shares outstanding as at 30 June 2007 was 104.173.680. Each share carries one voting right. The total market capitalization amounted to € 579.206 thousand approximately.

The interim financial statements of the Company and the Group for the period ended June 30, 2007 were approved by the Board of Directors on August 8, 2007.

Due to rounding there may be minor differences in some amounts.

2. Significant Group accounting policies

The accounting policies used by the Group for the preparation of the financial statements for the period 1/1-30/6/2007 are the same with those used for the preparation of the financial statements for the fiscal year 2006.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) which have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the interpretations which have been issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee as adopted by the European Union. More specifically, for the preparation of the current period's Financial Statements the Group has applied IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

In addition, the Group has prepared the financial statements in compliance with the historical cost principle, the going concern principle, the accrual basis principle, the consistency principle, the materiality principle and the accrual basis of accounting.

For the fiscal year 2007, the going concern principle does not apply for the 100% subsidiary SUPERFAST DEKA M.C., the shipowning company of SUPERFAST X, who sold the above vessel and therefore it does not have any trading activity.

The preparation of the financial statements calls for the use of estimates and assumptions which must be in line with the provisions of generally accepted accounting principles.

The above estimates are based οn the knowledge and the information available to the Management of the Group until the date of approval of the financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2007.

2.1. Adoption of new IFRS and Interpretations from 1/1/2007

International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) have issued new Standards and Interpretations, the implementation of which is mandatory for accounting periods starting from January 1, 2007 or subsequently.

The view of the Management of the Group about the effect of the application of these new Standards and Interpretations, on the financial statements of the Company and the Group, is set out below:

2.1.1. IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and supplementary adjustment of IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, Capital Disclosures.

IFRS 7 requires further disclosures about:

a) the significance of financial instruments for the entity's financial position and performance

b) qualitative and quantitative information about the exposure to risks arising from financial instruments, including minimum determined disclosures about credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk.

IFRS 7 replaces IAS 30 and the disclosures required by IAS 32.

The presentation requirements of IAS 32 remain unaltered.

The Group will implement IFRS 7 and the amendment of IAS 1 on the annual financial statements of the fiscal year which begins on 1/1/2007.

2.1.2. Interpretation 7, Applying the Restatement Approach under IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies.

Interpretation 7 requires entities to apply IAS 29 in the reporting period in which an entity first identifies the existence of hyperinflation in the economy of its functional currency, as if the economy had always been hyperinflationary.

The above interpretation is not applicable to the operations of the Company and the Group.

2.1.3. Interpretation 8, Application scope of IFRS 2 Share-based payment.

Interpretation 8 clarifies that IFRS 2 will apply to any arrangement when equity instruments are granted or liabilities (based on the value of an entity's equity instrument) are incurred by an entity, when the identifiable consideration appears to be less that the fair value of the instruments given.

The above interpretation is not applicable to the operations of the Company and the Group.

2.1.4. Interpretation 9, Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives

Interpretation 9 requires an entity to assess whether a contract contains an embedded derivative at the date an entity first becomes a party to the contract and prohibits reassessment unless there is a change to the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows.

The above interpretation is not applicable to the operations of the Company and the Group.

2.1.5. Interpretation 10, Interim Financial reporting and Impairment

Interpretation 10 requires that, an entity shall not reverse an impairment loss recognised in a previous interim period in respect of goodwill or an investment in either an equity instrument or a financial asset carried at cost.

This Interpretation has not been adopted by the European Union.

2.1.6. Interpretation 11, Application scope of IFRS 2 Group and Treasury Share Transactions.

For the scope of accounting treatment, the transactions in which employees are granted rights to equity instruments, are regarded as equity settled –share based payments even in the case in which the company chooses or has the obligation to buy such equity instruments from third parties.

The same is followed in the financial statements of the parent company, when employees of its subsidiaries are granted rights to equity instruments of the parent company.

The above interpretation is not applicable to the operations of the Company and the Group.

2.2. Adoption of new or revised IFRS on and after 1/1/2008

2.2.1. IFRS 8 Operating Segments

The Group will implement on 1/01/2009 IFRS 8 "Operating Segments", which replaces IAS 14 "Segment Reporting" and requires the information disclosed to the users of the financial statements to be the same with those that the management uses internally in order to assess its segment performance.

2.2.2. IAS 23 Borrowing Costs (Revised)

The revised IAS 23 provides that an entity should capitalize the borrowing cost to the extent that is attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset and shall be capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.

Any other cost should be recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

The Group will not be affected by the revision of IAS 23 because it already applies the alternative treatment for the recognition of the borrowing cost which was provided by the previous version of IAS 23. This treatment is the same treatment that is provided by the revised IAS 23.

2.2.3. Interpretation 12, Service Concession Arrangements (is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008).

Interpretation 12 deals with the way service concession operators should apply existing IFRS to account for the rights and obligations they undertake in service concession arrangements. In accordance with this Interpretation the operators should not recognise the relevant infrastructure as tangible assets, but should recognise a financial asset or an intangible asset. Interpretation 12 is not applicable to the operations of the Group.

Attica Premium S.A.

Reconciliation of intercompany balances:

Superfast Group 7.013 7.818
Blue Star Group 2.688 833

The transactions between Attica Premium S.A. and the other companies of Attica Holdings S.A. have been priced with market terms.

Furthermore, there are intercompany transactions between Superfast Dodeka (Hellas) Inc. and Co Joint Venture and Blue Star Group amounting € 9.333 thousand approximately.

4.2. Participation of the members of the Board of Directors to the Board of Directors of other companies

There are no changes from what is referred in the annual Financial Statements of year 2006.

Office rent paid by the Group to Odyssey Maritime Inc. and Pellucid Trade Inc., companies controlled by Pericles Panagopulos family, for the period 1/1 - 30/6/07 totaled an amount of € 183 thousand.

4.3. Guarantees

The parent company has guaranteed to lending banks the repayment of loans of the Superfast vessels.

4.4. Board of Directors and Executive Directors' Fees

Executive Directors' Fees (Managing Director, Authorized Director, Financial Director, Sales Director, Technical Director, Hotel Director) totaled an amount of € 893 thousand.

5. Financial statements analysis

The figures of the period 1/1 – 30/6/2007 are not fully comparable with the corresponding figures of continuing operations of the previous year because:

a) the car passenger ferry Diagoras was acquired by the Group in July 2006 and therefore didn't operate in the first half of 2006,

b) the vessel Blue Star 1 has been redeployed from the Adriatic Sea to the North Sea in January 2007 replacing of the vessel SUPERFAST X, which has been sold in February 2007,

c) the freight-only RoRos, Nordia and Marin have been redeployed from the Baltic Sea routes and especially the RoRo Nordia has been chartered from 29/11/2006 to the French company Fret Cetam and the RoRo Marin from 10/02/2007 has been deployed in the Adriatic Sea and particularly on the Patras – Venice route.

5.1. Revenue Analysis and Geographical Segment Report

The Group has decided to provide information based on the geographical segmentation of its operations.

The Group operates in the Greek Domestic Routes, in Adriatic Sea and in North Sea. The Group's vessels provide transportation services to passengers, private vehicles and freight.

Seasonality

The Group's sales are highly seasonal. The highest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed during the months July, August and September while the lowest traffic for passengers and vehicles is observed between November and February. On the other hand, freight sales are not affected significantly by seasonality.
