Sales of the Airline Catering division rose by EUR 17.72 million or 7.0%, from EUR 251.82 million to EUR 269.54 million in the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year. Asiana Airlines in New York, Etihad Airways in Düsseldorf, Jet Airways in London, Oman Air in Milan and Kuwait Airways in Frankfurt have to be highlighted. In Turkey, the division managed to increase its quantitative figures which in turn boosted sales in TRY, although the latter were equalized due to the collapse of the exchange rate in the course of translating from TRY to EUR in the Group income statement. The airline catering market in Austria, with the exception of Emirates, showed moderate growth.

Sales of the International Event Catering division for the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year increased to EUR 39.68 million from EUR 31.46 million in the corresponding period of the previous business year. The growth was derived from international sports mega-events as much as from classic events.

The Restaurants, Lounges & Hotel division reported sales of EUR 52.61 million for the first three quarters of 2011/2012, up from EUR 47.19 million in year-on-year terms. The increase is due mostly to an expansion of the lounges segment. Further growth was added by the new "Henry" gourmet brand.

Earnings

Consolidated earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) for the DO & CO Group amounted to EUR 24.87 million for the first three quarters of 2011/2012, higher by EUR 5.38 million than in the first nine months of the previous business year. The EBIT margin could be raised from 5.9% in the past year to 6.9% in the first three quarters of 2011/2012. EBITDA for the DO & CO Group was EUR 37.17 million, an increase of EUR 4.27 million over the figure for the previous year. The EBITDA margin was reported at 10.3% (first three quarters of 2010/2011: 10.0%).

Costs of materials and services as a proportion to sales rose to 43.2% from 42.1% in the previous period. In absolute terms, this increase made up EUR 17.05 million (+12.2%) at a sales growth rate of 9.5%.

Personnel expenses as a proportion of sales could be cut from 31.3% to 31.0%. In absolute figures, they rose from EUR 103.54 million to EUR 112.32 million.

At EUR 12.30 million in the first three quarters of 2011/2012, depreciation and amortization were EUR 1.11 million lower than in the previous year.

Other operating expenses amounted to EUR 63.83 million, EUR 3.83 million or 6.4% higher than in the previous year.

The tax ratio (taxes as a proportion of the untaxed income) was 26.4% in the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year (compared to 29.4% in the first three quarters of 2010/2011).

For the first three quarters of 2011/2012, the Group achieved a consolidated result of EUR 14.86 million, a plus of EUR 4.61 million or 44.9% in year-on-year terms. Earnings per share thus are EUR 1.53 or 17.7% above the previous year's term.

Statement of Financial Position

Current assets were up by EUR 26.12 million, a rise to EUR 192.05 million from EUR 165.93 million on the balance sheet day of 31 March 2011, driven by an increase in other short-term receivables and assets. This increase in other short-term receivables and assets is the result of including the escrow accounts set up in connection with the acquisition of the shares in Kyiv Catering LLC and a diversification into assets that can be realized at short notice in order to guard against inflation, default and foreign currency exposure risks.

Consolidated equity (adjusted by goodwill book values) recorded a rise by EUR 14.93 million, from EUR 143.58 million as of 31 March 2011 to EUR 158.51 million as of 31 December 2011.

The equity ratio (after adjustment by goodwill book values) is set at 58.2% (vs. 57.8% on 31 March 2011).

Current liabilities showed an increase over the previous year, rising by EUR 11.92 million from EUR 84.49 million to EUR 96.41 million compared to 31 March 2011, as a consequence mainly of an expansion of business activities and seasonal variations.

Cash Flow

At EUR 40.19 million, the cash flow from result was higher by EUR 6.01 million than in the previous year's period (EUR 34.18 million in the first three quarters of 2010/2011). Due to a seasonally caused change in the working capital, the cash flow from operating activities is at EUR 35.88 million (compared to EUR 48.84 million in the first three quarters of 2010/2011).

Cash flow from investment was EUR –51.09 million (compared to EUR –11.47 million for the first three quarters of 2010/2011). This substantial increase is mainly the result of payments for the acquisition of other short-term assets, and it includes the escrow accounts set up in connection with the acquisition of the shares in Kyiv Catering LLC and the diversification course into assets that can be realized at short notice as a hedge against inflation, default and foreign currency exposure risks, which was pursued in the second quarter of the 2011/2012 business year and which amounts to EUR 20.54 million. Payments for additions to tangible and intangible assets made up EUR 11.90 million, which is only slightly higher than the previous year's figure.

The cash flow from financing activities totalled EUR –5.51 million (first three quarters of 2010/2011: EUR 39.18 million).

Employees

The average number of employees increased from 3,778 to 4,124 in year-on-year terms. This change was due mostly to the enlargement of the company's business activities in Turkey, Austria, the UK and USA.

Airline Catering

Through its consistent pursuit of a premium strategy guiding its product and service, Airline Catering as DO & CO's largest division was able to prolong its excellent sales and profit growth performance into the third quarter of the 2011/2012 business year.

Worldwide, DO & CO's gourmet kitchens in New York, London, Frankfurt, Munich, Milan, Malta, Salzburg, Vienna, Linz, Graz and another nine locations in Turkey are creating new standards for the premium segment of the airline catering business.

More than 60 airlines are included in DO & CO's customer portfolio, among them major Austrian ones such as the Austrian Airlines Group and NIKI, as well as numerous well-known international airlines such as Turkish Airlines, British Airways, Singapore Airlines, Oman Air, Cathay Pacific, Emirates Airlines, Etihad Airways, Qatar Airways, Royal Air Maroc, South African Airways, Jet Airways, Iberia, Air France and Asiana Airlines.

In the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year, the Airline Catering division produced sales of EUR 269.54 million, corresponding to a growth rate of 7.0% over the previous year. At 74.5%, its share of the Group sales is slightly lower than in the corresponding period of the past business year.

EBITDA and EBIT could once again be substantially boosted in year-on-year terms. At EUR 28.52 million, EBITDA is higher by EUR 2.73 million (+10.6%), and EBIT rose from EUR 14.43 million to EUR 17.59 million (+21.9%). The EBIT margin could be raised from 5.7% in the first three quarters of 2010/2011 to 6.5% in this business year's corresponding term.

The positive performance of sales and margins continued right into the third quarter of the 2011/2012 business year.

Performance at the locations in London, Milan, Frankfurt, New York and Munich was particularly positive. Sales growth at these locations was driven foremost by the acquisition of new customers during the last quarters and an expansion of the Company's business volume with existing customers. In New York, DO & CO won a tender by Asiana Airlines for a daily longdistance flight to Seoul. DO & CO Germany has obtained the catering contract for four weekly long-distance flights from Düsseldorf to Abu Dhabi. Consequently, the premium carrier Etihad Airways is now supplied by three DO & CO locations in Germany. Furthermore Jet Airways in London, Oman Air in Milano and Kuwait Airways in Frankfurt have to be highlighted as new customers.

In Turkey, growth rates were achieved in terms of quantities, sales and profits, although the rise in sales and profits was cancelled out due to the collapse of the TRY in the course of translating TRY to EUR in the Group's profit and loss statement. Altogether, third-party customers as much as Turkish Airlines, DO & CO's main customer, performed well. The growth achieved by Turkish Airlines has been due to the expansion of its fleet, especially in the long-range flight segment.

Moreover, Air Berlin Turkey – a cooperative venture of Air Berlin and Pegasus Airlines – could be welcomed as a new customer. This involves catering in Antalya for about 32 charter flights between Germany and Turkey per week during the peak season.

The Airline Catering locations in Austria also reported moderate growth rates, fuelled especially by the performance of Emirates.

The International Event Catering division made EUR 39.68 million in sales in the first three quarters of 2011/2012, a clear increase over the previous year's period (EUR 31.46 million in the first three quarters of 2010/2011).

For the first three quarters of 2011/2012, the division reported an EBITDA of EUR 4.41 million, an improvement from EUR 3.44 million in year-on-year terms. The EBITDA margin could be boosted from 10.9% to 11.1%. EBIT rose from EUR 2.67 million to EUR 3.84 million, and the EBIT margin was substantially better than in the previous year (9.7% vs 8.5% for the first nine months of 2010/2011).

Highlights of the Major Events segment in the third quarter included the four Formula 1 grands prix. Following Suzuka and Korea, New Delhi was a new host. The experienced DO & CO team handled the challenge with the same supreme professionalism as it did at the final event of the season in Abu Dhabi. At these four races, altogether more than 25,000 VIP guests enjoyed the culinary treats prepared by DO & CO. When including these four grand prix races, DO & CO handled altogether 16 grand prix events in the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year – one more than in the previous year.

Classic Events during the first three quarters of 2011/2012 made for satisfactorily full order books. Among the high points of the third quarter were the VIP catering for Red Bull Salzburg at the Austrian Championship and the UEFA Europa League, ski racings organized by ÖSV at Flachau and Lienz and numerous events held by well-known companies in the private economy.

In December, the final draw for the groups participating in the UEFA EURO 2012 took place in Kiev in December. The very positive feedback achieved by DO & CO for its first round in Ukraine reflected the company's intense preparatory work for the major event which is scheduled to take place in Poland and Ukraine in June/July 2012.

In the first three quarters of the 2011/2012 business year, the Restaurants, Lounges & Hotel division counted sales of EUR 52.61 million, an increase of about 11.5% over the previous year.

At EUR 4.24 million, EBITDA has surpassed the previous year's figure (EUR 3.66 million), and EBIT could also be raised in year-on-year terms, from EUR 2.39 million to EUR 3.44 million. The EBITDA margin (8.1%) exceeds that of the previous year, and the EBIT margin could be improved from 5.1% to 6.5%.

The DO & CO location at Stephansplatz in the heart of Vienna continues to perform excellently. Restaurants, coffee shops and the hotel have so far been able to look back at a successful business year.

The strongest growth in the first three quarters of the current business year was reported by the Lounges segment. Compared to the previous year's period, additional sales were rung up in particular by the Emirates Lounge at London-Heathrow and the Turkish Airlines Lounge in Istanbul. Between April and December, altogether more than 1 Mio passengers enjoyed the superior culinary offer at the lounges catered for by DO & CO (Vienna, Frankfurt, New York, London, Istanbul, Adana, Trabzon, Dalaman).

The "Henry" gourmet brand also contributes to the higher growth figures for the first three quarters. Customer frequency is steadily growing, confirming its underlying concept of healthy and fresh "to go" products and plans to expand the business in the 2012/2013 business year.

DO & CO Stock / Investor Relations

During the period under review, international financial markets continued to suffer a decline in share prices. The main reasons for the volatile price situation were tensions in the euro zone caused by the European debt crisis and uncertainties as to the future course of the economy.

DO & CO Stock

On 29 December 2011, the Austrian leading share index ATX closed at 1,891.68 points (31 March 2011: 2,882.18 points), thus experiencing a marked decline of 34.4% in the first three quarters of our 2011/2012 business year.

The DO & CO stock managed to do quite well in this negative and volatile market environment, closing at EUR 26.14 as of 29 December 2011, which corresponded to a reduction of 13.3%.

Similarly at the Istanbul Stock Exchange, the DO & CO stock did much better than the Turkish share index ISE 100 which slipped by 20.4% points to 51,266.62 points. The DO & CO stock, on the other hand, kept its decline to just 1.6%, closing at TRY 63.50 on 30 December 2011.

Trading volume

Outlook

We expect that the pervasive uncertainty will continue to generate an increased volatility of the market. In spite of this general feeling of precarity, no decline can yet be found in passenger figures among airlines nor any shrinking in the number of guests at events or enterprises operated by the Restaurants, Lounges & Hotel division.

At the international DO & CO locations, sales activities will continue to focus on the acquisition of new customers – DO & CO is permanently entering numerous catering tenders organized by major airlines. Assuming that DO & CO will be successful with some of its bids and that other premium customers will increase the number of their flights to destinations that harbor DO & CO locations, we are currently working to increase our capacities, especially at our New York and Frankfurt locations.

In Turkey, DO & CO's activity to position itself as a one-stop supplier of airline catering services confirms its course as a sound and successful strategy. The wide range of services – from classic catering and handling to global equipment and beverage management, a state-of-theart cabin crew training center and the deployment of about 150 "DO & CO Flying Chefs" meanwhile extended to all long-distance flights operated by Turkish Airlines – provides the underpinnings for further expansion on the Turkish market. The Company is also continuing its negotiations with Turkish Airlines with the aim of extending its airline catering contract in Turkey.

DO & CO has acquired a 51% stake in the largest airline catering company in Ukraine. At a market share of 60%, Kiev-domiciled Kyiv Catering LLC is the region's market leader for airline catering, employing some 500 staff. At present it has more than 20 airlines on its rolls. In the medium term, DO & CO aims to achieve growth in Ukraine not just by its airline catering business, but also by offering Vienna coffeehouse culture, gourmet shops and event catering. At present a new gourmet kitchen is being set up at the Kyiv Borispol International Airport which is scheduled to start operations in the first half of 2012. Whether Kyiv Catering LLC will be included in the consolidated financial statements depends on a positive ruling in the antitrust proceedings currently pending. The proceedings are expected to be completed in the next months.

In the last quarter of the 2011/12 business year, the International Event Catering division will once again be kept busy by a great number of sports events.

The Classic Events segment will handle the catering side of diverse winter sports events.

Following the ÖSV ski races at Lienz and Flachau in December, DO & CO will be responsible for catering for the competitions at Bad Kleinkirchheim, Schladming and Kitzbühel in fourth quarter. This winter, the ski circuit will stop twice at Schladming: in addition to the January race, the world cup finals will take up five days in March, in preparation of the 2013 world championship. In Kitzbühel, the traditional Hahnenkamm race will once again assemble numerous celebrities and leading figures from business, politics and sports who are offered an opportunity to enjoy superior gourmet entertainment.

At the ski jumping events, DO & CO will provide the requisite flights of culinary fancy at the Bergisel and Bischofshofen legs of the Four Hills Tournament.

DO & CO catering for Red Bull Salzburg will continue into the club's spring season, involving, in the fourth quarter, four matches of the Austrian Football Bundesliga and at least one within the scope of the UEFA Europa League.

The Major Events segment will concentrate on the Formula 1 grand prix in Kuala Lumpur in March 2012, where DO & CO is preparing to cater for about 2,000 VIP guests at the circuit in Malaysia.

The project team for the UEFA EURO 2012, which is scheduled to take place in Poland and Ukraine from 8 June to 1 July, will proceed with its preparations at full speed right through the last quarter of the current business year. At this third-largest sports event worldwide, DO & CO will be responsible for the VIP catering at all the venues for the third time in a row, following Portugal in 2004 and Austria/Switzerland in 2008.

Within the Restaurants, Lounges and Hotel division, DO & CO intends to gear up its expansionary course of the new retail segment. Based on the experience gained at the first shop at Neuer Markt in Vienna, DO & CO is extending its "Henry" brand to new locations. An outlet is scheduled to be opened at the Vienna Airport Skylink in June 2012. Plans for new locations in Austria and abroad are in the final stage of the decision-making process.

The lounges segment is also expected to achieve further growth. DO & CO is entering national and international tenders on an ongoing basis. With its takeover of the Turkish Airlines lounge at Bodrum DO & CO is now operating five Turkish Airlines lounges in Turkey. In the spring of 2012, the Austrian Airlines lounges will move to the new Vienna Airport Skylink, where a new HON lounge will be added which is agreed to get its catering from DO & CO as well.

The Vienna airport Skylink will also accommodate a part of the Demel segment: A Demel Café and shop will be opened directly adjacent to the Henry shop. This will offer passengers departing to non-Schengen countries an opportunity to sample the delights of the traditional imperial and royal pastry shop either directly on site or as a take-away.

For the classic DO & CO restaurants, such as those at Stephansplatz and Albertina, and for its Vienna hotel DO & CO expects that their highly positive performance will continue throughout the rest of the business year.

DO & CO won the bid for the catering services on ÖBB-operated trains in January 2012. Starting in April 2012, DO & CO will furnish, under a new quality brand, the culinary catering to passengers on all Railjet and IC/EC trains run by the Austrian Railways. Preparations by the experienced DO & Co team have already been started.

Same as in the past quarters, DO & CO is continuing on an ongoing basis its evaluation of potential targets for acquisition in the Airline Catering, Restaurants and Retail segments.

Generally, the DO & CO management is highly confident that it can continue its successful performance of the past years. A focus on innovation, superior product and service standards and excellently trained and committed staff provide the underpinnings for DO & CO to make the best possible use of all growth potentials.

Unless otherwise indicated, the interim financial statements are stated in thousands of euros (TEUR), as are the figures in the Notes. In adding up rounded figures and percentages, rounding differences may occur due to the use of automated computing aids.

2. Accounting and Valuation Principles

The accounting and valuation principles were the same as those applied in the previous year's consolidated financial statements.

3. Scope of Consolidation

Compared to 31 March 2011, the scope of consolidation (including DO & CO Restaurant & Catering AG) has been extended by the following companies in the first three quarters of 2011/2012:

  • DO & CO Procurement GmbH
  • DO & CO Gourmet Kitchen Cold GmbH
  • DO & CO Gourmet Kitchen Hot GmbH
  • DO & CO Pastry GmbH
  • DO & CO Airline Logistics GmbH
  • DO & CO Facility Management GmbH
  • DO & CO Special Hospitality Services GmbH
  • DO & CO HOSPITALITY MANAGEMENT POLAND SPÓŁKA Z OGRANICZONĄ OD-POWIEDZIALNOŚCIĄ
  • DO & CO EVENTS POLAND SPÓŁKA Z OGRANICZONĄ ODPOWIEDZIALNOŚCIĄ

The two Polish companies were set up in the third quarter of the business year, while all the other companies were founded in the second quarter of the business year. All of these companies were included in the consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2011 by way of a full consolidation process.

The extension of the scope of consolidation does not affect the consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2011 nor the income statement for the Group for the first three quarters of the business year 2011/2012.

4. Currency Translation

The interim financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries were translated in accordance with the functional currency principle as outlined in IAS 21 (The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates). The functional currency of the foreign companies is the national currency of their country of registration since the subsidiaries are financially, economically and organizationally independent in their conduct of business. The only exceptions are two British companies.

The interim financial statements of eight foreign subsidiaries with registered offices outside the Community Territory of the Member States of the European Union and two subsidiaries with registered offices in Great Britain and Poland respectively were translated in accordance with the principles of the modified current rate method. The balance sheet items were valued at the mean rate on the reporting date of 31 December 2011. Income and expenses on the income statement were translated at the annual average rate.

Translation differences on the reporting date arising from the balance sheet were allocated to shareholders' equity without affecting profit and loss. Translation differences between the reporting date rate within the balance sheet and the average rate in the income statement were offset in shareholders' equity.

Non-realized translation adjustments in conjunction with monetary items economically allocable to a share in an associated company, particularly borrowings under company loans issued to subsidiaries, were recognized with no effect on profit or loss in an adjustment item from currency translation and offset in shareholders' equity.

The exchange rates applied in currency conversion for significant currencies developed as follows:

Reporting Date Rate Cum. Average Rate
in EUR 31 Dec 2011 31 Dec 2010 31 Dec 2011 31 Dec 2010
1 US Dollar 0.772857 0.748391 0.714028 0.767426
1 British Pound 1.197175 1.161778 1.145918 1.181179
1 Turkish Lira 0.409299 0.483232 0.416009 0.506874
1 Swiss Franc 0.822639 0.799744 0.825880 0.746240

5. Seasonal Nature of Business

Fluctuations in business volume are significant in Airline Catering and International Event Catering. The larger volume of flights and passengers among airline customers especially in the first and second quarters of the business year due to the holiday and charter season have a major influence on Airline Catering whereas for International Event Catering the main factor is the changing dates of large-scale sports events.

II. Notes to the Statement of Financial Position and Income Statement for the Group

II.1. Statement of Financial Position for the Group as of 31 December 2011

Financial assets 2,148 2,186 1,850 1,645
Total 78,223 83,683 80,601 86,140

The investments item contains stakes in Sky Gourmet Malta Ltd., Sky Gourmet Malta Inflight Services Ltd., ISS Ground Services GmbH and Fortnum & Mason Events Ltd, all of which are included in the consolidated financial statements at equity.

(2) Other Long-term Assets

in TEUR 31 Dec 2011 31 Dec 2010 31 Mar 2011 31 Mar 2010
Other long-term assets 3,350 1,219 3,277 1,770
Total 3,350 1,219 3,277 1,770

The other long-term assets of subsidiaries included in the consolidated accounts pertain primarily to long-term capitalized advance income tax payments by DO & CO Restaurants & Catering AG due to the latter having a business year ending on 31 March 2012 and thus diverging from the calendar year and due to deposit payments put down for leased facilities.

(3) Inventories

in TEUR 31 Dec 2011 31 Dec 2010 31 Mar 2011 31 Mar 2010
Raw materials and supplies 5,837 6,289 5,953 4,931
Goods 7,337 7,363 7,482 5,402
Total 13,174 13,652 13,436 10,333

(4) Trade Accounts Receivable and Other Current Accounts Receivable and Assets

The short-term assets with a residual term of less than one year can be summarized as follows:

in TEUR 31 Dec 2011 31 Dec 2010 31 Mar 2011 31 Mar 2010
Trade accounts receivable 39,590 30,395 31,870 31,213
Accounts receivable from companies with
distributed ownership

53,241 9,780 11,308 14,026
Total 92,831 40,174 43,178 45,239

The increase over 31 March 2011 in trade accounts receivables has seasonal causes but is also the result of passing on the cost of investments made in the Turkish Airlines Lounge in Istanbul. The rise in other current accounts receivables and assets follows from the creation of escrow accounts in connection with the acquisition of the shares in Kyiv Catering LLC and a diversification into assets that can be realized at short notice in order to hedge against inflation, default and foreign currency exposure risks.
