MANAGEMENT REPORT OF THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND FACTS OF 2006 PRESENTED TO THE GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING

Dear Ladies and Gentleman Shareholders,

I welcome you and I wish to thank you for your participation and presence in this General Shareholders' meeting. During 2006 Sarantis financial results demonstrated a constant growth in turnover as well as improved profit margins, which served the company's reinforcement.

The financial results of the Group in 2006 were in line with the Management's estimations and strategy, according to which a particular emphasis was given to the strategic markets of fragrances & cosmetics and household products, aiming at the same time at the gradual boost of own products in the aforementioned categories. In addition, within the framework of the Group's strategy, foreign markets continued to present a satisfactory growth presenting higher growth rates compared to the Greek market, increasing their contribution in consolidated sales.

The consolidated turnover of Gr. Sarantis, at the end of 2006, amounted to 223.18 mil. euros, compared to 208.66 mil. euros in 2005, increased by 6.96%.

It should be noted that during 2006 we observed a satisfactory growth in the Group's two basic sectors of activity, the fragrances & cosmetics and the household products, and also a strong activity growth in markets of Eastern Europe. The Earnings before tax of the Group amounted at the end of 2006 to 29.65 mil. euro compared to 25.28 mil. euro in 2005, resulting to an impressive increase of 17.28%. The Earnings before Interest and Tax (EBΙΤ) in 2006 amounted to 29.81 mil. euro, increased by 5.91% compared to 2005 that stood at 28.15 mil. euro. The Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) reached 33.44 mil. euro in 2006, compared to 31.75 mil. Euro in 2005, therefore

increased by 5.31%. The lower increase of EBITDA compared to turnover led to the reduction of the gross margin to 14.98%, from 15.22% in the previous year. The Earnings after Tax and Minorities (ΕΑΤΑΜ) reached 22.67 mil. euro, compared to 19.33 mil. euro in, increased by 17.28%.

Analysing the turnover of the Group per sector of activity, we observe that the main sectors of activity, the fragrances & cosmetics, the household products and the health & care products, reported a satisfactory rate of growth +18.82%, +9.43% and +4.28% respectively. Specifically, the fragrances & cosmetics represent the 39.15% of the total consolidated turnover of the Group, followed by household products that contribute the 37.27%. The sales of strategic alliances products contribute the 14.67% to total turnover, and the health & care products the 8.92%. The significant increase of own products that amounts to 20.23% for the fragrances & cosmetics and 8.38% for household products must be emphasized.

Analysing the geographic distribution of the Group's turnover, we observe that the turnover in the Greek market represent the 49.20% of total turnover, while the remaining 50.80% (113.37 mil. euro), represent the Group's turnover in foreign markets. It is noted that, compared to 2005, the turnover of the Group in the old countries increased by 18.38% while in the new countries by 129.46%. The most important foreign markets in terms of growth remain those of Turkey (+42.75%), Czech Republic (+34.65%) and Serbia (+27.88%) and Bulgaria 24.39%, while the market of Russia and Hungary started creating income in comparison to 2005.

Analysing the earnings before tax and financial and investment results at the different sectors of activity, the highest contribution for 2006 was observed for the strategic alliances with 38.56% followed by fragrances & cosmetics with 25.62%. The participation of the household products was 25.41% followed by health & care products with 10.41%. The breakdown of earnings before interest and tax of fragrances & cosmetics and household products in own products and distributed results to 13.20 mil. euro for own products products, compared to 14.12 mil. euro in 2005, decreased by 6.51%.

Analysing the geographical distribution earnings of the Group's earnings we observe satisfactory results in Greece that reported a significant increase by 14.94%, with the old countries also reporting significant increase in earnings before tax and financials by 17.57%.

The management of GR. Sarantis SA expects that the positive trends observed during 2006 will also continue in 2007. Specifically, according to Management's estimations, the prospects regarding the increased demand for consumer products in the markets of Eastern Europe are expected to be strong in the next five years, particularly in the countries that recently became part of the European Union and in which the Group has already established subsidiaries. At the same time, the Management also examines the possibility of acquisitions in the new markets it operates, in every sector of strategic priority for the Group.

Α. General Information about the Company and the Group

The company "GR. SARANTIS SA, INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL COMPANY OF COSMETICS – CLOTHING – HOUSEHOLD AND PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS" under the trade name "GR. SARANTIS S.A." (hereinafter the "Company" or the "Parent") and its subsidiaries (hereinafter the "Group") operate in the field of production, trade and distribution of cosmetics, household and pharmaceutical goods. The Company and Group's domicile is in the Amarousio Municipality, 26 Amarousiou – Chalandriou Street, while the Group employs 1,517 individuals and the parent 646.

The company's shares are listed in the main market of the Athens Stock Exchange.

The financial statements of the Company and the Group for the period ended on September 30th 2005, were approved for disclosure by decision of the Board of Directors on 13/11/2006.

The subsidiary companies that have been included in the attached consolidated financial statements of the Group are described in note B (ii).

Β. Main accounting principles followed by the Group

The main accounting principles adopted during the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, are analyzed as follows:

i. Basis for the preparation of the financial statements

The statements have been compiled according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Council, which have been adopted by the European Union, and the Interpretations supplied by the Regular Interpretation Committee.

The Company will compile its financial statements according to IFRS for the first time for the fiscal year ending 31st of December 2005. No standards have been applied before their effective date.

The preparation of financial statements according to generally accepted accounting principles requires use of estimations and assumptions that affect the balances of asset and liability accounts. It also requires knowledge of the contingent assets and liabilities on the date of compilation of the financial statements as well as the presented income and expenses for the financial years under examination. Although these estimations are based on the (Group) Management's best knowledge, the actual results may eventually differ.

ii. Consolidation

(1) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements consist of the financial statements of the Parent and its subsidiaries. The following table presents the subsidiaries included in the consolidation, the consolidation method along with the relevant participation shares, and the activity of each subsidiary as well as their tax un-audited fiscal years.

(2) Subsidiary companies

Subsidiary companies are those on which the parent has control. The existence of possible exercisable voting rights during the compilation of the financial statements is taken into account in order to establish whether the parent controls the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated (full consolidation) apart from two (P. MARINOPOULOS S.A. and ELCA COSMETICS L.T.D.) along with its subsidiaries ESTEE LAUDER HELLAS S.A. and ESTEE LAUDER BULGARIA IM COSMETICS S.A, which are consolidated using the equity method.

The accounting method used for the consolidation is the acquisition method. The acquisition cost of a subsidiary is the fair value of assets provided, participating securities issued and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, plus any cost directly related to the transaction. The individual assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that comprise a business combination, are valued upon acquisition at fair value irrespective of the participation percentage. The cost in excess of the fair value of acquired items, is booked as goodwill. If the total acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the acquired items, then the difference is directly recognized in the results.

Intra-company transactions – Intra-company balances and unrealized profit from transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are eliminated as long as there is no indication of impairment for the transferred assets.

iii) Valuation of participations – securities

a) The company values its participations in subsidiaries and associates at acquisition cost less any impairment. The Company is at the stage of defining the recoverable value.

b) Investments in securities and shares

All financial assets are initially valued at their acquisition cost.

In accordance with IAS 39 financial assets, with the exception of investments in subsidiaries, associated companies and joint ventures, are classified in one of the following categories (a) available for sale, (b) financial assets valued at fair value through the income statement, (c) held to maturity, (d) loans and receivables.

The Group classifies investments in shares in one of the first two categories.

The subsequent valuation of financial assets depends on their classification. Investments available for sale and financial assets at fair value through the income statement are valued at fair value. Profits or losses from the valuation of investments available for sale (with the exception of impairment losses) are recorded directly in shareholders' funds in a special reserve account until they are sold, at which point the cumulative profits/losses that have been recoded in the shareholders' funds are recognized in the profit and loss account. Profits or losses from the valuation of financial assets valued at fair value through the income statement are recognized in the profit and loss account.

Investments held to maturity are valued at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation using the effective interest rate method and the relevant discounting results are recognized in the profit and loss account through the process of depreciation or upon disposal.

Note: The direct participation in companies S. Paros & Co and GREKOVET LTD were erased as result of their sale on 05/05/2006. The results from the sale of these participations are included in the Financial Statements of the fourth quarter 2006.

iv) Foreign Currency Conversion

(1) Measurement and reporting currency

The measurement and reporting currency of the Group as of January 1st, 2002 is the Euro, as a result the consolidated financial statements are presented in euros (€), the valuation currency of the parent company.

(2) Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currency are converted into euros using the rates in effect at the date of the transaction. Assets and liabilities in foreign currency at the date of compilation of the financial statements are adjusted so as to reflect the foreign exchange rates at the date of compilation. Profits and losses resulting from such transactions (and from the conversion of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency) are recognized in the income statement except when they are classified as equity as a recognized cash flow hedge.

(3) Group companies

The conversion of the financial statements of Group companies which have a different operating currency from the parent is performed as follows:

  • The assets and liabilities are converted using the rates in effect at the balance sheet date.

  • Equity is converted using the rates in effect at the date it emerged.

  • Income and expenses are converted using the period average rates.

The resulting foreign currency differences are booked in an equity reserve and are transferred to the income statement upon sale of these companies.

The goodwill and fair value adjustments that result from the acquisition of economic units abroad are converted using the balance sheet date rates.

v) Tangible fixed assets

Real estate property (land, buildings) is valued at fair value, at least every three years by independent surveyors. Increases in the book value of the real estate property, which arise from fair value adjustments, are registered in an equity reserve. Decreases in the book value reduce the reserve, if such a reserve had been previously created for the same asset. Decreases in value beyond the reserve, as well as decreases in the book value of assets for which there is no revaluation reserve, are recorded in the income statement as an expense.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciations of other tangible fixed assets are calculated using the straight-line method throughout their useful economic life, which is as follows:

Buildings 25-60 years
Machinery 8-10 years
Transportation means 5- 9 years
Fixtures and fittings 3-5 years

Other tangible fixed assets are valued at their acquisition cost less depreciation. Acquisition costs include all directly attributable expenditures for the acquisition of the items. The costs may also include profits or losses from the hedging of foreign exchange risk during the acquisition of these assets, which had been recorded in an equity reserve.

Repairs and maintenance are recognized as an expense in the fiscal year they are incurred. Significant subsequent additions and improvements are capitalized in the cost of the relevant fixed assets provided that they increase the useful economic life or/and the productive capacity of the fixed asset or they decrease its operating cost.

The residual values and the useful economic lives of tangible fixed assets are subject to revision at each annual balance sheet.

When the book values of tangible fixed assets exceed their recoverable amount, the differences (impairment) are recorded in the income statement as an expense.

Upon withdrawal or disposal of an asset, the relevant cost and accumulated depreciation is written off the respective accounts at the time of their withdrawal or disposal, and the relevant profits or losses are recorded in the income statement. When the withdrawn or disposed tangible assets have been valued at their fair value, the revaluation reserve –if any- which has been recorded in equity is transferred to the profits carried forward account at the time of the withdrawal or disposal.

(Relevant tables in pages 24-29)

vi) Impairment of assets

Tangible assets are examined for potential impairment loss, whenever facts or changes in circumstances indicate that their book value may not be recoverable. Whenever the book value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the respective impairment loss is recorded in the income statement. The recoverable amount of an asset is the largest amount between the estimated net sales value and its value in use. Net sales value is the plausible revenue from the sale of an asset in the context of an arm's length transaction, in which all parties engage willingly and in full knowledge, after the deduction of every additional direct cost required for the sale of the asset. On the other hand, value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to occur from the continued use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its expected useful economic life. If a company is not in a position to estimate the recoverable amount of an asset, for which there is indication of impairment, then it defines the recoverable amount of the cash-flow generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Reversal of the loss from the impairment of an asset that was recorded in a previous year is performed only when there are sufficient indications that such impairment no longer pertains or is reduced. In these cases the reversing entry is recognized as income.

The Management considers that none of the Company's fixed assets have suffered impairment and as a result no calculation of the assets' recoverable amounts was made.

vii) Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of the acquisition cost and the net realizable value. The cost is determined by the average weighted cost method. The cost for finished products and work-in-progress inventories includes the cost of materials, direct labor costs and the proportion of the general common production cost. Finance costs are not included in acquisition cost of the inventories. The net realizable value is estimated according to the current sale prices of the inventories in the context of ordinary activity, after the deduction of possible sale expenses whenever required.

(Relevant table in page 15)

viii) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are initially recorded at their fair value and subsequently valued at unamortized cost using the effective interest rate, after deducting impairment losses. Impairment losses (losses from doubtful receivables) are recognized when there is objective evidence that the Group is not in a position to collect the amounts owed in accordance with the contractual clauses. The amount of impairment loss is the difference between the book value of the receivables and the present value of the expected future cash flows, discounted using the effective interest rate. The amount of the loss is recorded as an expense in the profit and loss account.

(Relevant tables in pages 15-16)

ix) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, sight deposits and short term – up to 3 months – investments with high liquidity and low risk.

x) Financial assets

Financial assets include:

  • 1) Securities available for sale valued at fair value and affecting equity.
  • 2) Securities valued at fair value through profit and loss.

(Relevant table in page 17)

xi) Share capital

The common registered shares are classified as equity.

(Relevant table in page 23)

xii) Loans

Loans are recorded at their fair value. Subsequently, they are valued at unamortized cost using the effective interest rate.

The Management of the Group considers that the interest rates payable in relation to the loans assumed are equivalent to the current fair market rates, and therefore no conditions arise for the adjustment of the value of these liabilities.

Any difference between the amount granted (excluding the acquisition cost) and the repayment value is recognized in the profit and loss account during the lending period.

(Relevant tables in pages 19)

xiii) Leases

Finance leases, which effectively transfer all risks and benefits associated with ownership of the leased asset to the Group, are recorded as assets at a value which is equal, at the start of the lease, to the real value of the leased asset, or if it is lower, with the present value of the minimum lease payments. The lease payments are split into finance costs and reduction of the unpaid liability, so that a constant periodic interest rate on the remaining balance of the liability emerges. The finance costs are charged directly to the profit and loss account.

The leased assets are depreciated during the shortest time period between the useful economic life of the asset and the length of the lease and the depreciation period is set in accordance with their useful economic life.

Leases where the lessor holds essentially all the benefits and the risks resulting from the ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Leasing payments are recorded as an expense in the profit and loss account systematically throughout the course of the lease.

xiv) Income tax (current and deferred)

Current and deferred income tax is calculated based on the relevant items in the financial statements for each of the companies that are included in the consolidation in accordance with the tax laws in effect in Greece and in the foreign countries where the subsidiaries are based. Current income tax refers to the taxable profit of the Groups' companies as these were restated in accordance with the requirements of the tax law and was calculated based on the average tax rate in effect in 2006.

Deferred tax is calculated using the liability method on all the temporary tax differences at the balance sheet date between the tax base and the accounting value of the assets and liabilities.

The expected tax impact on the temporary tax differences is determined and reported either as future (deferred) tax liabilities or as deferred tax assets.

The Company records deferred tax assets for all tax-deductible temporary differences and deferred tax losses to the extent that it is considered probable that tax profits will be available in the future to offset the temporary tax-deductible differences.

The book value of the deferred tax assets is reviewed on the balance sheet dates and is reduced to the extent that it is not considered probable that tax profits will be available in the future to offset part or all of the deferred tax assets.

The current tax assets and liabilities for the current and previous years are valued at the amount that is expected to be paid to the tax authorities (or to be recovered from them), using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or effectively enacted as of the balance sheet date.

(Relevant tables in pages 19-21)

xv) Employee benefits

According to the provisions of L. 2112/20 the Group compensates retiring or dismissed employees, and the amount of the relevant compensation depends on the years of service, the level of wages and the reason for exit from employment (dismissal or retirement). In the case of exit from employment due to retirement the amount of the compensation that must be paid is equal to 40% of the amount that would be paid in the case of dismissal.

The employee benefit plans regarding compensation on exit from employment fall under the defined benefit plans, according to IAS 19 "Employee Benefits". The liability recorded in the balance sheet for defined benefit schemes is the present value of the commitment for the defined benefit, the changes that result from the unrecognized actuarial gains

and losses and service cost. The defined benefit commitment is calculated annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method. The interest rate on the long-term bonds of the Greek Government is used for discounting.

The actuarial gains or losses that result from the adjustments based on the historical data and which are above or below the margin of 10% of the cumulated liability, are booked to the income statement during the expected average insurance time of the participants in the plan. The service cost is booked directly to the income statement except in the case where the changes in the plan depend on the remaining service time of the employees. In this case the service cost is recognized in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the maturity period.

Short-term benefits to employees -monetary and in kind- are recorded as an expense when they accrue.

(Relevant table in page 22)

xvi) Provisions for risks and expenses

Provisions are booked when the Group has a present, legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably measured.

The Group recognizes a provision for onerous contracts when the expected benefits that will result from the contract are smaller than the unavoidable cost of the obligations ensuing from the contract.

Provisions for restructuring include the clauses for termination of leases and employee benefits for exit from employment and are recognized in the period during which the Group commits itself legally or constructively to carry out the relevant restructuring plan.

The provisions are reviewed at the end of each financial year and are adjusted so as to reflect the best possible estimates and in the cases where it is deemed necessary are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate. Contingent liabilities are not recorded in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability of an outflow of resources that embody economic benefits is very small. Contingent assets are not recorded in the financial statements but are disclosed if the inflow of economic benefits is probable.

xvii) Recognition of revenue

Revenue includes the fair value of the sale of goods and rendering of services, net of recoverable taxes, discounts and returns. Intercompany revenue within the Group is fully reversed. The recognition of revenue is performed as follows:

(a) Sales of goods

Sales of goods are recognized when the Group transfers goods to customers, the goods are accepted by them and the collection of the resulting claim is reasonably assured.

(b) Rendering of services

Revenue from the rendering of services is accounted for based on the stage of completion of the service rendered in relation with the estimated total cost.

(c) Revenue from interest

Interest revenue is recognized on a time proportion basis using the effective yield.

(d) Dividends

Dividends are accounted for as revenue when the right to receive payment has been established.

7. Income Tax

Income tax is analyzed as follows:

Group Company
2006 2005 2006 2005
Income tax for the period 6,955,577.92 5,419,586.82 2,312,755.47 1,056,292.44
Deferred tax 408,505.92 698,886.15 382,505.53 666,324.93
TOTAL 7,364,083.84 6,118,472.97 2,695,261.00 1,722,617.37

The amount for tax has been calculated using the actual tax rates of the previous years. The Management of the Group consistently follows a policy aiming to minimize the tax burden based on the incentives provided by tax laws.

Non tax deductible expenses mainly comprise provisions which are adjusted by the Management during the calculation of income tax.

Note: The European Committee decided that the tax-free reserves of article 2 of L.3220/2004 do not comply with the European Law. The treatment of this subject by the Ministry of Finance is pending. The maximum possible charge for the Group arising from the potential payment of the tax obligations amounts to 300,000.00 euro.

The deferred tax accounts are analyzed as follows:
