Press release
Silla di Gaggio Montano, June 18, 2015 – Today the Board of Directors of Piquadro S.p.A., which designs, manufactures and distributes professional and travel leather goods featuring innovative designs and cutting edge technology, approved the Draft Separate Financial Statements for the year April 1, 2014 – March 31, 2015 and the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2015.
The Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2015 showed consolidated revenue of € 67.21 million, up 6.6% on the previous year (€ 63.05 million). The increase in revenue is attributable to the sales' growth in Italy and abroad, in the Wholesale channel as well as in the DOS channel including e-commerce.
The revenues of the Wholesale channel, which represent 64.0% of the Group's total turnover as of 31 March 2015, showed a 6.6% increase. Such a growth was driven by the sales in the domestic market, while sales in the European Wholesale channel have suffered from the decrease in orders from two of the most important foreign markets for Piquadro, Russia and Ukraine, due to the recent events involving the two countries.
The drop in Russia and Ukraine determined a 16.1% decrease in the European Wholesale revenues, even if Wholesale revenues grew by 14.4% in the other European countries, driven by Germany (+8,1%) and Spain (+9.7%).
Consolidated revenues from the DOS channel also grew by 6.6% compared to the previous year. Sales in the DOS channel, calculated as the worldwide average growth rate of revenues from DOS existing at 1 April 2014, was a positive 2.9% at current exchange rates (for the same number of business days and constant exchange rates, SSSG – Same Store Sales Growth was +2.0%)
The DOS channel includes e-commerce revenues, which have recorded a 42.6% increase.
Under a geographic point of view, the Group's revenues as of March 31 2015 show an 11.8% increase in the domestic market, which still represents, an important share (75.7%) of the Group's revenues. In the European market the Group recorded sales for € 11.7 million with a 7.6% decrease compared to the same period of the year 2013/2014 due to orders reduction in
Russia and Ukraine. It must be incidentally underlined that, with the exclusion of those two countries, the revenues in the European market were up over 17%. In the extra-European markets, where the Group sells over 19 countries, revenues decreased by 4.9% due to the current reorganization of distribution in Asia, which brought about the closure of ten DOS in Hong Kong, China and Taiwan to start over with the management of the Chinese distributor with which was recently signed an agreement.
EBITDA of the Piquadro Group as of 31 March 2015 was € 8.79 million with a ratio of 13.1% to net sales (14.1% in the previous). At March 31, 2015, the Group spent about € 3.7 million in Marketing and Communication activities (€ 3.3 million at March 31, 2014) to develop and promote the Piquadro brand.
EBIT of the Piquadro Group was € 5.96 million with a ratio of 8.8% to net sales, down 7.5% compared to the previous year (€ 6.439 million at March, 31 2014 equal to 10.2% of net sales). Such a decrease is attributable to the rising production costs, especially in the last quarter of the financial year, due primarily to the appreciation of the U.S. currency against euro which has been partially balanced by the Parent Company's forward covers, with effects on the financial management and on the Net Profit before income taxes as well.
The Company's Net Profit before income taxes stands at € 5.94 million (+8.7 compared to the previous year) and is affected by income taxes, including the effects of deferred taxation, which amounted to € 1.86 million, for an overall tax rate of 39.5% (35.8% for the previous year).
The Group's Net Profit was equal to € 4.08 million, up about 16.2% compared to € 3.51 million recorded in the previous year.
Net Financial Position as of March 31, 2015 stands at € 7.0 million with an improvement of about € 3.2 million thanks to a € 7 million free cash flow. The dividends distribution on the Consolidated Net Profit of year 2013/14 was € 1 million (approximately 27.7% payout on the Consolidated Net Profit) and investments in tangible and intangible assets were approximately € 1.6 million.
"The 2014-15 financial year closed with strong international growth," affirms Marco Palmieri, Chairman and Managing Director of Piquadro. "Sales were impacted by the negative dynamics in the Russian market and reorganization of the Chinese market, from direct to indirect distribution, but there was growth nonetheless, involving all channels and all markets. The performance of ecommerce was extremely positive, and we expect further increases in the future. Excellent cash flow resulted in a reduction of over € 3 million in our NFP," Palmieri continued. "The dynamic in the early months of the current financial year confirms this growth, and with highly positive like-for-like sales in direct retail we are optimistic about the new openings in New York and Kuala Lumpur and our first single-brand franchised outlet in China, inaugurated just a month ago."
During the year ended March 31, 2015, the Parent Company reported revenue of approximately € 63.7 million, up 7.3% compared to the revenue reported in the year ended March 31, 2014. The revenue trend was largely attributable to the positive performances achieved on the Italian market (approximately +11.6%) as well as the extra-European area (+18.6%), while on the European market the Group recorded a 12.1% decrease due to orders reduction in Russia and Ukraine.
The Parent Company's EBITDA for the year was approximately € 6.6 million compared to € 8.6 million in the previous year and represented 10.4% of the Company's revenue at March 31, 2015 (14.5% for the year ended March 31, 2014). The Parent Company's EBIT amounted to € 4.8 million, approximately 7.6% of revenue, down approximately 28.2% compared to financial year 2013/2014 (11.4% of revenues).
The Company's Net Profit before income taxes stands at € 4.6 million (€ 5.6 million at March 31, 2014), affected by € 1.6 million of income taxes resulting in a total tax rate of 34.8% (35.5% for the previous year).
Net Profit of Piquadro S.p.A. for the year ended March 31, 2015 decreased approximately 16.6%, from € 3.6 million to € 3.0 million.
At March 31, 2015, Net Financial Debt of Piquadro S.p.A. was € 8.6 million with an improvement of € 3.1 million thanks to a free cash flow of approximately € 5.2 million. The dividends distribution on the Consolidated Net Profit of year 2013/14 was € 1 million (approximately 27.7% payout on the Consolidated Net Profit) and investments in tangible and intangible assets were approximately € 1.2 million.
The development dynamics of the Piquadro Group in the 2015-16 financial year will be affected by our renewed capacity to continue the path of international growth begun and fueled by the investments made in recent years and linked to the more glamorous repositioning of the brand.
The management believes that in the 2015-16 financial year the Group may continue to grow at rates similar to those of 2014-15. Despite the current context of rising production costs, due primarily to the appreciation of the U.S. currency against the euro, the management expects that profitability will also improve because of the benefits deriving from the complete reorganization of a few less profitable geographical areas of business. In that context, the management will be closely monitoring margins and operating costs to increase the R&D effort and international marketing with the objective of increasing brand visibility and awareness.
At the next Shareholders' Meeting, scheduled for 23 July 2015 at 11 a.m. in first call at the head offices of Piquadro S.p.A., and in second call at the same time and place on 27 July, the Board of Directors of Piquadro S.p.A. will propose the distribution of a dividend of € 0.04 per share, calculated on the shares outstanding at today's date (50,000,000 shares).
The total amount of the proposed dividend is therefore € 2 million. The dividend will be placed in payment from 5 August 2015 (date of record 4 August 2015) by detaching coupon no. 8 on 3 August 2015.
This memorandum presents a few alternative performance indicators to permit a better assessment of the profitability and financial operation of the Group. Those indicators must not be regarded as substitutes for the conventional ones contemplated in the IFRS. More specifically, the alternative indicator presented is EBITDA (gross operating margin) defined as earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest, and current income taxes. With regard to the financial reporting schedules contained in the memorandum, please note that auditing activity has not yet been completed on these data.
The manager responsible for preparing the Piquadro S.p.A.'s, financial reports, Roberto Trotta, declares – pursuant to paragraph 2 of Article 154-bisof Italy's Legislative Decree 58/1998 – that the accounting information contained in this press release and relevant to first nine months 2014/2015 results, corresponds to the documented results, books, and accounting records.
The financial statements as of March 31, 2015 are currently being audited and the report on operations as well as the corporate governance and ownership structure report are also being reviewed by the independent auditors. The audit process is underway.
The Board of Directors today approved the Remuneration Report pursuant to art. 123-ter of Legislative Decree 58/1998 (the Consolidated Law on Financial Intermediation "TUF") and the implementation of the regulations issued by the Consob. The Board has also resolved to present and submit to the advisory vote of the next Shareholders' Meeting the first Section of the Report, illustrating the Company's Policy on remuneration for the Directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, pursuant to art. 123-ter of the TUF.
Today, the Board of Directors also approved the Corporate Governance Report for the year ended on March 31, 2015, which contains information on Company's compliance with the Governance Code for listed companies promoted by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and the additional information required by applicable legislation.
The today's Board of Directors' meeting also resolved to call an ordinary Shareholders' Meeting for July 23, 2015 and, if necessary, in a second convening, for July 27, 2015 in order to resolve on the following matters, as well as to approve the Financial Statements as of March 31, 2015:
The Shareholders' Meeting call notice will be published by the Company pursuant to applicable laws and in compliance with the provisions of the Company's By-laws on June 20th, 2015, on Piquadro website www.piquadro.com, in the "Libero" newspaper and on the authorized storage system "NIS-Storage" accessible at .
The renewal of the authorization request from the Shareholders' Meeting for the purchase and sale of own shares has the main objective of stabilizing the price of the Company's shares and supporting liquidity but also to make it possible to create, if the Board of Directors will deem it necessary, a 'Share Stock' – to be used as consideration in case of extraordinary dealings, even by means of shares' exchange, with third parties in the interest of the Company - in accordance with market practice no. 2 referred to in Consob Resolution 16839/2009. The proposal of the Board, if approved by the Shareholders' Meeting, envisages that the Board is authorized to purchase own shares in the maximum number permitted by the Law, for a period of 12 months from the authorization date - that is, until the Shareholders' Meeting which will approve the Financial Statements as of March 31, 2016 - by using the reserves available as posted in the last duly approved Financial Statements. These operations may be carried out, in one or more installments, by purchasing shares, pursuant to art.144-bis, paragraph 1, letter b, of the Issuer Regulations, in regulated markets following operating modalities provided for in the regulations for the organization and management of the markets themselves, which do not permit the direct combination of the purchase negotiation proposals with predetermined sale negotiation proposals.
The purchases may be made with modalities different from those indicated above pursuant to art. 132, paragraph 3, of the TUF or other regulations from time to time applicable at the time of the transaction. The share purchase price will be identified accordingly from time to time, with regard to the method preselected for the execution of the transaction and in accordance with the provisions of law, regulations or accepted market practices, within a minimum and a maximum which may be determined using the following criteria:
If the own shares purchase transaction are carried out within the accepted practices with reference to the liquidity support activity referred to in point 1 of Consob Resolution 16839/2009, notwithstanding the further limits provided for by such Resolution, the price for the purchase negotiation proposals must not be higher than the higher of: a) the price of the most recent independent transaction or b) the current price of the highest independent purchase negotiation proposal present in the market in which the purchase proposals are submitted.
The proposal of the Board also envisages authorization for the sale, in one or more installments, of any own shares purchased, at a consideration, which will be set by the Board of Directors, not 20% lower than the reference price, which the share registered during the Stock Exchange session on the day before each transaction.
The authorization to the sale of own shares is also requested to the Shareholders' Meeting, from the authorization date - that is the Shareholders' Meeting which will take place on July 23, 2015 with no time limits.
If the own share sale operations are carried out within the accepted practices in relation to the market liquidity support activity, as referred to in point 1 of Consob Resolution 16839/2009, without prejudice to the further limits provided for by that Resolution, the price for the sale negotiation proposals must not be lower than the lower of: a) the price of the most recent independent transaction and or b) the current price of the lowest independent sale negotiation proposal present in the market in which the sale proposals are submitted.
The Company does not currently hold own shares; the subsidiary companies do not hold any Company's shares.
The annual report (which also includes the report on operations, the draft separate financial statements, consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2015) and the Corporate Governance Report will be made available to the public at the Company's registered office, on the internet site www.piquadro.com in the Investor Relations section and on the authorized storage system "NIS-Storage" accessible at , within the terms provided for by current applicable laws.
The Directors' Report on the authorization request from the Shareholders' Meeting for the purchase and sale of own shares will be distributed with the modalities provided for by the applicable laws - and, therefore, also on the internet site www.piquadro.com in the Investor Relations section - at the time of distribution of the Report on the Agenda (art. 125-ter of the TUF) and, in any case, within the terms provided for by the Law.
The Remuneration Report pursuant to art. 123-ter of the TUF will be distributed at the times and with the methods provided for by the applicable standards - therefore, also consultable at the internet site www.piquadro.com in the Investor Relations section - within the terms provided for by the Law.
