Results 2018

Operating revenue (MHRK)

AD Plastik Group AD Plastik d.d.

Positive impact on revenue

• Realization of new projects in the parent company for Renault, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford
• Revenue of the new member of AD Plastik Group (6.2% of Group's revenue in 2018)
• Recovery of the Russian market

Negative impact on revenue

• Strong kuna against the euro (impact on the revenue of the parent company)
• Weakening of the Russian ruble (impact when converting revenue realized in the Russian companies to kuna)

Costs of launching new projects have affected a slightly lower EBITDA margin, which still remains above the industry average.

FINANCIAL RESULT	-52,142	-33,924	65.06	16,218	60,480	372.92

More favorable financial result at the AD Plastik Group's level (HRK 18.2 million) and the parent company (HRK 44.3 million) has been achieved. It is a result of:

• Lower negative exchange rate differences due to elimination of the currency exposure of the parent company to the Russian ruble (HRK 19.4 million in the Group, that is HRK 19.2 million in the parent company)
• Increment of value of the financial share of the subsidiary company AD Plastik Kaluga by HRK 12.3 million
• Larger dividend payout by the affiliated company EAPS by HRK 12.5 million
• Decrement of financing costs (HRK 5.8 million in the Group, that is HRK 6.3 million in the parent company)

The Group's and parent company's record net profit realized is the result of revenue growth and favorable net financial result.

NFD (MHRK) NFD/EBITDA

Group's net financial debt grew by HRK 59.8 million, mostly due to acquisition of Tisza Automotive.

Financial results for Q1 2019

Operating revenue

In the first three months of 2019 AD Plastik Group realized operating revenue amounting to HRK 348.3 million. Operating revenue from the European market amounted to HRK 277.2 million and it increased by 15.8 percent compared to the same period last year despite a drop in the number of newly registered vehicles of 3.3 percent in the EU market. Its growth was largely influenced by the revenue of the new associated company Tisza Automotive.

Revenue amounting to HRK 71.1 million was realized in the Russian market and it decreased by 15.29 percent compared to the same period last year. The decline in operating revenue was affected by decreased revenue from the sales of tools and a significantly weaker average ruble against the euro exchange rate compared to the same period last year. In the first quarter 392 thousand new vehicles were registered in the Russian market, representing a 0.3 percent decline compared to the same period last year.

EBITDA

This year's EBITDA trend is not comparable to the previous year due to the different stages of production cycles within the company. Namely, the first part of the year was marked by the final stage of the production cycles of the key vehicles of the AD Plastik Group, that is phase 1 of the Twingo, Smart and Renault Clio. More specifically, a modification of serial production of the mentioned models with redesigned and modernized versions is in process. Thus, a serial production of the Twingo phase 2 began in late March, and the start of serial production of the Smart phase 2 and Renault Clio 5 is expected in the second quarter. The start of production for new models will have resulted in EBITDA growth by the end of the year.

FINANCIAL RESULT	-10,025	838	-	6,442	7,853	121.9

The net financial result was more favorable due to the lower negative exchange rate differences, which were partly a result of the decline in foreign currency exposure of Russian companies and partly of the strengthening of the Russian ruble exchange rate compared to December 31, 2018.

Net profit

Net profit (MHRK) Net profit margin

A lower level of profitability has expectedly reflected on a decrease in net profit of the Group and the parent company. Growth in profitabilty in the second part of the year will also be reflected on net profit growth.

Debt

NFD (MHRK) NFD/EBITDA

Increase in net financial debt largely stems from the realization of a loan to finance investments in the parent company. EBITDA growth and regular repayment of credit liabilities in the second part of the year are expected to decrease indicator NFD/EBITDA.
