Atlantic Grupa: Significant revenue and net profit growth

In 2015, Atlantic Grupa recorded sales of HRK 5.4 billion, which is a 5.6 percent growth compared to the previous year. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amount to HRK 404.0 million, and are lower by 8.3 percent, primarily due to the increase in prices of raw materials and unfavourable foreign currency exchange rate movements, while net profit after minority interests amounts to HRK 242.3 million, which is a 21.1 percent growth compared to 2014.

Among key business developments in 2015, we point out the reorganization of distribution operations with the establishment of distribution companies in the markets of Germany and Austria, which proves the strong focus on further internationalization. The year was marked by further strengthening of distribution in the region, and in Croatia we should mention the contract with the new principal, Phillips Hrvatska. Also, after less than a year since the beginning of construction, the new energy bars factory in Nova Gradiška, in which HRK 100 million were invested, began its operations. The latest Atlantic Grupa's acquisition – the company Foodland, was successfully integrated, and today with the Bakina tajna brand it presents a new business unit, Gourmet. At the end of the year, the agreement on the sale of the tea business was signed with the Spider Group, a long-term contractual partner in the production of teas under Cedevita and Naturavita brands. In 2016, the focus will remain on the internationalization and growth in the existing markets, and special attention will be given to liquidity, financial liabilities and risk management.

"Despite challenging macroeconomic conditions on most markets, in 2015 we recorded sales growth and improvement in net profitability and, according to the latest survey of Euromoney, Atlantic Grupa received the award as the best-managed company in Croatia and the best-managed company in the food and beverages sector in Central and Eastern Europe. Continuing the development of operations in the region, the focus of our future development is on the developed western markets, where our brands Argeta, Bakina tajna, Donat Mg,
