I. REVIEW OF FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2007

ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A. Review of the First Quarter 2007 Financial Results

In the first quarter of 2007, Attica Group operated in the markets (geographic segments) of the Adriatic Sea, the North Sea, and the Greek domestic market. Our vessels serve the leisure travelers, with or without their private vehicles and trucks for the transportation of goods.

Total revenue for the Group in the first quarter stood at €59.5 mln against €51.4 mln during the same period in 2006, showing an increase of 15.8%. Earnings before taxes, investing and financial results, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) showed a considerable increase and stood at €7.8 mln against €2.8 mln during the same period in 2006. Group's profit after taxes and minority interests stood at €9.3 mln against losses of €0.5 mln during the same period in 2006. It must be pointed out that the above results of the first quarter 2006 refer to the Group's continuing operations and do not include the Baltic Sea operation, as the vessels that served this line were sold in April 2006.

The market breakdown of the Group's total revenue is as follows: Adriatic Sea 55.0%, domestic routes 36.6%, and North Sea 8.4%. Respectively, the revenue breakdown per geographic segment is:

  • In the Adriatic Sea revenue increased by 20.5% over a 12.9% increase in the number of sailings.
  • In the domestic routes revenue increase by 28.9% over a 22.6% increase in the number of sailings.
  • In the North Sea revenue decreased by 9.7% over the same number of sailings.

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

The increase of the Group's operating profitability (EBITDA) is attributed to the Adriatic Sea and Greek domestic market mainly due to the increase in revenue in both markets and the simultaneous reduction of the vessels' operating expenses. A contributor of this reduction was the drop by 16% of the average fuel oil price (380cst) during the first quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006.

Attica Group's results in the first quarter of 2007 include extraordinary capital gains of €12.5 mln from the sale of Superfast X. In the same period, the parent company received Euro 19.1 mln as capital return from its subsidiary Superfast Deka MC. and it also received from its subsidiary group Superfast dividends amounting Euro 29.8 mln.

The Group's cash and cash equivalents stood at the end of the first quarter of 2007 at €119.2 mln against €100.1 mln at the end of the same period in 2006.

It should be noted that the Group operates in a highly seasonal sector particularly in the passenger and private vehicle segments with peaks between July and September and a slowdown between November and February. The freight segment exhibits no seasonality throughout the year.

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 at a price of €112 mln. The gains from the sale of the vessel stood at €12.5 mln and are posted in the results of the first quarter of 2007. Superfast X operated on the Scotland – Belgium route in the North Sea since May 2002 until it was replaced by Blue Star 1 as of the end of January 2007.
  • In February 2007 the RoRo m/v Marin was redeployed from the route Uusikaupunki – Rostock in the Baltic Sea to the route Patras – Venice in the Adriatic Sea.
  • In February 2007 the parent company increased its stake in the stock of Minoan Lines S.A to 22.25%.
  • During February 2007 the regular tax audit of the parent company was completed for the fiscal year 2005. No additional taxes were imposed after this audit. Furthermore, the regular tax audit for the fiscal years up to and including 2005 for the subsidiaries of SUPERFAST Group was completed. Additional taxes amounted €175,294 and were posted in the 2006 results.

Operational Review

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 quarter of 2007 stood at 96,614 passengers, 16,768 private vehicles, and 30,698 freight units. Compared with the same period last year, traffic increased by 35.7% in the passenger traffic segment, by 34% in the private vehicle traffic segment, and 35.1% in the freight unit segment. It must be pointed out that the number of vessels remained the same in the first quarter of 2007 compared with the same period in 2006.

The above increase in traffic volumes is attributable not only to the increase of the load factors, but also to the increase by 20% of the departures.

Since February 10th 2007 the Group has an enhanced presence in the Adriatic Sea through the redeployment of the RoRo vessel m/v Marin from the Uusikaupunki – Rostock route to the Patras – Venice route. The other Group's RoRo vessel m/v Nordia that used to operate in the Baltic Sea was being chartered out from November 2006 until October 2008 to the French Company Fret Cetam.

The Blue Star Group was present in the Adriatic Sea (Patras – Igoumenitsa – Bari route) with one vessel (Blue Horizon) against two vessels (Blue Horizon and Blue Star 1 that was redeployed on the Rosyth – Zeebrugge route in the North Sea) during the first quarter in 2007. Total carryings for Blue Star Group for the first quarter 2007 stood at 20,537 passengers (a 16.3% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2006), 2,792 private vehicles (a 18.0% decrease), and 6,478 freight units (a 20.5% decrease).

Despite the decrease in carryings, the Group achieved a positive EBITDA during the first quarter of 2007 (€0.2 mln) against a negative EBITDA during the same period in 2006 (-€0.7 mln).

Overall, Attica Group achieved an EBITDA of €4.6 mln in the Adriatic Sea operations during the first quarter of 2007 against €0.6 mln during the same period in 2006.

Market shares for the Superfast Group on the Greece – Italy- Greece routes stood for the first quarter of 2007 at 33.5% in passengers (against 27.7% during the same period in 2006), 29.6% in private vehicles (against 25.3% during the same period in 2006), and 26.7% in freight units (against 20.7% during the same period in 2006). The respective shares for the Blue Star Group is 7.0% in passengers (against 10.6%), 4.6% in private vehicles (against 6.6%), and 5.5% in freight units (against 8.3%). Market shares are derived by the Greek port authorities of Patras and Igoumenitsa.

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 for the vessel, with the same number of sailings, stood at 15,528 passengers (a 0.3% increase compared to the first quarter of 2006), 5,223 private vehicles (a 5.7% increase), and 6,229 freight units (a 15.2% decrease).

Earnings before interests, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) in the first quarter of 2007 stood at -€0.8 mln against earnings of €0.3 mln during the same period in 2006.

The Greek Domestic Market

In the Greek domestic market (Piraeus – Cyclades, Rafina – Cyclades, and Piraeus – Dodecanese), the Group's subsidiary Blue Star Group achieved during the first quarter of 2007 a considerable revenue growth and an increase in its operating profitability.

During the first quarter of 2007 the departures increased by 22.6% compared with the same period last year. The reason for this increase was the acquisition of the vessel Diagoras and its deployment in the Piraeus – Dodecanese route. The carryings during the first quarter of 2007 stood at 511,868 passengers (a 13.1% increase compared to the first quarter of 2006), 69,646 private vehicles (a 14.6% increase), and 27,642 freight units (a 28.0% increase).

Earnings before taxes, investing and financial results, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of Blue Star Group in the Greek domestic market during the first quarter of 2007 stood at €4.0 mln against €2.2 mln during the same period in 2006.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General information

ATTICA HOLDINGS S.A. ("ATTICA GROUP") is a Holding Company and as such does not have trading activities of its own. The Company, through its subsidiaries, mainly operates in passenger shipping and in travel agency services.

The headquarters of the Company are in Athens, Greece, C. Karamanli Avenue 157, 16673, Voula.

The number of employees, at period end, was 9 for the parent company and 1.282 for the Group, while at 31/03/2006 was 9 and 1.536 respectively.

Attica Holdings S.A. shares are listed in the Athens Stock Exchange under the code ATTICA.

The corresponding codes under Bloomberg is ATTEN GA and under Reuters is EPA.AT.

The total number of common bearer shares outstanding as at 31 March 2007 was 104.173.680. Each share carries one voting right. The total market capitalization amounted to € 458.364 thousand approximately.

The interim financial statements of the Company and the Group for the period ending at 31 March 2007 were approved by the Board of Directors on May 23, 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 1/01-31/03/2007 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.

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 ending 31 March 2007.

  • 2.1. Adoption of new IFRS and Interpretations from 1/1/2007 The Group will implement on 1/1/2007 for the first time IFRS 7 and Interpretation 11. More analytically:
  • 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 1/01/2007.

2.1.2. 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, which becomes effective on 1 March 2007, is not applicable to the operations of 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.

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 1/01-31/03/07 totaled an amount of € 92 thousand.

5. Financial statements analysis

The figures of the period 1/01 – 31/03/2007 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 exist in the first quarter of 2006,

b) the vessel Blue Star 1 has been redeployed from the Adriatic Sea to the North Sea in January 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. The Company'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.

Τhe Group has chartered out from 29/11/2006 the RoRo Nordia to the French company Fret Cetam. The time charter will last until October 2008, with daily hire € 11 thousand.

The Company, as a holding company, does not have any sales activity and for this reason there is no revenue analysis by Geographical segment.

The consolidated results and other information per segment for the period 1/01 – 31/03/2007 are as follows:

5.6.1. Reclassified items – Change in Presentation

The Group was presenting the depreciation expenses as a separate item in each period's income statement in order for the reader to have a direct access to the EBITDA information. By the interim period 1/1-30/06/2006 the depreciation expenses are distributed on the cost of sales and the administrative expenses according to their origin. From this change in presentation there was and there is no effect neither to any period's result nor to the balance sheet or to the earnings after taxes per share or to the shareholders equity. The above reclassifications had as a result the increase (or the decrease) for the period 1/01-31/03/2006 of the following items.
