* Organic development, i.e. adjusted for currency, publication shifts, acquisitions and divestments.

Johan Lindgren, Eniro's President and CEO, commented:

―Our plan for turning around the revenue development proceeds according to schedule. Revenues for the first quarter were down 13 percent organically due to weak demand for printed directories, and weak order intake last year. The revenue development is an improvement from the previous reporting period. Our goal to turn around the negative revenue development by increasing the attractiveness of our core services, implementing a broader offer and improving sales efficiency, while having a more efficient cost structure, remains. There is however a significant time lag from sales contact to revenue recognition, which implies that of the revenues for 2011 around 40 percent were sold during the preceding year.

A number of activities have been initiated to increase sales efficiency. At the same time, the number of employees is aligned to the size of the operations, and the pace of activities within product development has been reduced to a sustainable level. We have an attractive product portfolio and there is positive sentiment in the sales force. Mobile services is presently our individually most successful offering in Sweden and Norway, showing a strong growth of order intake, however from low levels.

We are continuously improving our online offering. New versions of eniro.se and gulesider.no with product search started to be sold in the first quarter 2011 and in the second quarter this functionality will be launched also in Denmark. We have also a new sponsored link platform, Scandinavia Ad Network, and are starting to promote the new business-to-business service Proff in all of Scandinavia.

Based on our order intake to date, our outlook remains firm. For 2011, a single-digit organic revenue decline is expected. We estimate a sequential improvement quarter by quarter with an exception of the fourth quarter, which has more scheduled print publications. A turn around to organic revenue growth is expected in 2012. Total cost reductions are expected to be SEK 200 M in 2011. In 2012, the cost base is estimated to be reduced by an additional SEK 200 M.‖

Voice

The segment Voice includes directory assistance services including the brands Eniro 118 118 in Sweden, 1880 in Norway and from January 2011 also 0 100 100 in Finland. Voice accounted for approximately 19 percent of Eniro's revenues in 2010 excluding divested Finnish operations.

The market for personal search services is undergoing major changes. At the same time as competition is increasing, traditional voice services are declining. Eniro is working to enhance Voice services with the objective of offering a personal search service that encourages increased usage and is working actively with price models.

Revenues for Voice amounted to SEK 205 M (235), an organic decline of 9 percent. Volumes declined in all markets due to the increasing number of smartphones and in Norway intensified competition. Declining volumes were partly compensated by previously implemented price increases.

EBITDA amounted to SEK 52 M (83) and the EBITDA margin was 25 percent (35).

Poland

The segment Poland includes Eniro's offline and online operations in Poland under the brand Panorama Firm. Poland accounted for around 7 percent of Eniro´s revenues in 2010 excluding divested Finnish operations.

Revenues in Poland amounted to SEK 41 M (57), an organic decline of 18 percent. The decline is a result of weak demand for print directories. A limited number of directories were published during the first quarter. Most of the Polish directories are published during the second half of the year.

Online revenues increased from a low level and management has taken actions to improve the online offer. A review of the sales organization will be made in the second quarter.

EBITDA for Poland amounted to SEK -19 M (-14).

Earnings, cash flow and financial position

Earnings

Operating result for the first quarter amounted to SEK 7 M (35).

Net financial items for the period amounted to an expense of SEK 84 M (53) and were negatively affected by higher interest rates and positively affected by lower indebtedness and an exchange gain of SEK 10 M (19).

Earnings before tax for the first quarter of 2011 amounted to a loss of SEK 77 M (loss: 18).

Net income per share amounted to SEK -0.53 (0.37) for the first quarter of 2011.

Taxes

For the first quarter 2011, Eniro recognized a positive tax of SEK 24 M (24).

As a result of loss carryforwards from the liquidation of the German company Eniro Windhager GmbH, Eniro is not expected to pay any income taxes in Sweden in the years ahead.

The underlying tax rate for the most recent twelve months was 20 percent (17).

Investments

During the first quarter, Eniro's net investments in business operations, including online investments, amounted to about SEK 35 M (41).

Operating cash flow

Operating cash flow declined to SEK -78 M (-61) due to lower EBITDA and higher tax payment.

Tax payments amounted to SEK 165 M and included SEK 101 M in additional tax regarding the period 2001-2005 in the subsidiary Eniro Holding AS (Findexa Norway AS) acquired in 2005, according to the final ruling from the Norwegian tax authority received in 2010.

Financial position

Refinancing of credit facilities was carried out on January 13, 2011. The terms of the new facility are summarized below. For more detailed information see pages 67-68 in the annual report for 2010.

The facility matures on November 30, 2014, with the possibility of advanced amortization without additional costs. At the refinancing on January 13, 2011, the facility amounted to SEK 4,830 M, of which SEK 300 M was an unutilized credit facility. The facility comprises NOK 1,516 M, DKK 81 M and the balance in SEK.

Planned yearly amortization (paid semi-annually) amounts to SEK 200 M in 2011, SEK 300 M in 2012, SEK 400 M in 2013 and SEK 250 M in 2014. In addition, a facility of SEK 197 M matures during 2012.

No dividend can be considered as long as interest-bearing net debt in relation to EBITDA is more than 3.0. The loan is secured by shares pledged in all significant subsidiaries. In addition, other security in the form of such assets as brands, IP rights and internal loans were pledged.

The following covenants exist:

  • Cash flow/interest and amortization
  • EBITDA/net interest expense
  • Interest-bearing net debt/EBITDA
  • Investments may not exceed a specified amount per year

The interest margins are calculated based on the debt applicable at each point in time according to the table below.

Interest-bearing net debt / EBITDA Margin %
Greater than or equal to 4.00:1 5.50
Less than 4.00:1 but greater than or equal to 3.00:1 4.50
Less than 3.00:1 but greater than or equal to 2.00:1 3.75
Less than 2.00:1 3.00

Since parts of earlier interest-rate swaps entered into in 2007 (NOK 1,350 M and SEK 360 M) remain valid, this affects the base interest rate on which interest is calculated.

The Group's interest-bearing net debt amounted to SEK 3,960 M on March 31, 2011, compared with SEK 3,951 M on December 31, 2010.

On March 31, 2011, the outstanding debt under the credit facility amounted to NOK 1,516 M, DKK 81 M and SEK 2,631 M.

Of this facility, NOK 1,350 M and SEK 360 M is hedged at a fixed interest rate until August 2012, corresponding to approximately 45 percent of the outstanding debt.

At the end of March 2011, Eniro had an unutilized credit facility of SEK 238 M. Cash and cash equivalents and unutilized credit facilities amounted to SEK 825 M.

The Group's indebtedness, expressed as interest-bearing net debt in relation to EBITDA, excluding other items affecting comparability, amounted at the end of the first quarter 2011 to 3.5 at the end of the period, compared with 3.3 on December 31, 2010.

Holdings of treasury shares

At March 31, 2011, Eniro held 4,370 treasury shares. These shares will be retained for use in the share-saving program. The average treasury share holding during the quarter was 4,370.

Other information

Retirement benefit obligations

As earlier communicated Eniro will reduce its pension liabilities by taking out insurance to Alecta. This will lead to an increased one-time cost in the second quarter 2011, mainly due to that actuarial losses are to be realized according to IFRS. The cost increase is estimated to approximately SEK 40 M and the total cash outflow is estimated to approximately SEK 75 M.

Unchanged market outlook for 2011 and 2012

Operating revenues

For 2011 the company expects a single-digit organic revenue decline, reflecting the current order intake levels as well as positive impact from improved market conditions and increased sales efficiency. A turn around to organic revenue growth is expected in 2012.

Costs

The total net cost reduction in 2011 is expected to be SEK 200 M compared to the cost base in 2010, excluding the effects from the divestments and restructuring of the online and offline operations in Finland. The one-time cost attributable to pension obligations is included in the net cost reductions. In 2012, total costs are estimated to be SEK 200 M lower compared to the total costs in 2011.

Capital structure

The target is a net debt in relation to EBITDA not exceeding a multiple of three.

Dividend

Priority will be assigned to the reduction of net debt in accordance with the net debt/EBITDA target.

Employees

On March 31, 2011, the number of full-time employees was 3,798 compared 3,929 on December 31, 2010. The number of employees by country is presented in the table below.

Reverse split

The rights issue implemented at the end of 2010 resulted in the number of shares rising significantly. To achieve a more appropriate number of shares in the company and to improve transparency regarding pricing of the shares, a 50 to-1 reverse split was carried out in January 2011.

The reverse split was approved at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on November 26, 2010. As authorized by the General Meeting, the Board set the record date at January 27, 2011.

Accounting policies from 2011

This interim report was prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as recognized by the European Union (EU). The structure of the year-end report complies with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

  • Improvements to IFRSs (Issued by IASB in May 2010)
  • IAS 24, ―Related party disclosures‖ (July 2010).
  • IAS 32 (Amendment) ―Financial instruments: Classification of rights issues‖. (December 2009).
  • IFRIC 14 (Amendment) ‖The limit on a defined benefit asset, minimum funding requirements and their interaction‖. (July 2010.
  • IFRIC 19, ‖Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments‖ (July 2010).

A detailed description of the accounting policies applied by Eniro is presented in the 2010 Annual Report.

Revenue distribution for combination packages

As of 2010, a joint sales force sells combination packages that include all of Eniro's distribution channels. Sales of the new combination packages began in February 2010 in Sweden and Norway and will gradually comprise a greater share of the Group's sales.

The Eniro Group has two main principles for revenue recognition. Revenues attributable to Internet services (online) are distributed over the period during which the service is provided, normally 12 months (deferral method). Revenues from Directories (offline) are recognized when the directory is published (publication method). Revenues from the combined packages will be distributed according to the revenue-recognition principles based on the value of commercial use either derived from price lists or customer surveys. The outcome of the two revenue recognition methods is reported quarterly from the first quarter of 2010 and is dependent on the value of the composition of the packages.

Publication dates

Revenues from the sale of printed directories are recognized when the various directories are published. Changes in planned publication dates can thus affect comparisons. In a comparison between 2011 and 2010 the net effect on operating revenue as a result of changed publication dates is estimated to SEK -36 M. See table below for distribution between quarters and markets.

Risks and uncertainties

Eniro has an annual process for conducting risk analysis, Enterprise Risk Management, which includes all parts of the business. Eniro strives to efficiently identify, evaluate and manage risks within the dimensions industry and market risks, commercial risks, operational risks, financial risks, compliance risks linked to laws and regulations and financial reporting risks.

See the annual report for 2010 pages 30-33 for a detailed description of some of the factors that may affect Eniro's business, financial position and net income.
