MYTILINEOS HOLDINGS S.A. : Press Release - EXTROVERT PROFILE BOOSTS GROWTH FOR MYTILINEOS GROUP - Exports exceeded €1.2 billion
|
2011 Highlights:
- Turnover up 62%*
- Operating profitability (EBITDA) up 30%*
- Exports exceeded €1.2 billion, posting an annual growth of 80%
- Record-high results for METKA, which makes it to the world's top 10 companies in the sector
- Significant contribution from the Energy Sector – 14% of Group EBITDA
- Completion of thermal power plants investment plan
- Metallurgy sector under cost pressures due to domestic factors
In 2011, the Group posted significant growth in terms of business volumes for the second year in a row (with turnover more than doubling during the two-year period 2010-2011), benefiting the most from the strong growth of exports and the start of the Energy Sector's increased contribution to the Group's financial results. This performance was achieved despite the decline in the profitability of the Metallurgy Sector, which was adversely affected by the developments in the global markets as well as by the increased cost pressures which were due to domestic factors and whose negative impact was particularly strong during the second half of the year.
In particular, the Group's consolidated turnover for 2011 stood at €1,571.0 million against €969.0 million for 2010, with earnings before tax, interest, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) standing at €208.7 million, up from €160.3 in 2010. Net profit after tax and minority rights stood at €42.6 million against €46.2 million in 2010.
It should be noted here that, to ensure comparability, the figures given above for turnover and EBITDA for 2010 do not include €32.4 million of non-incurring income, representing discounted income from projects of ETADE S.A., a METKA subsidiary sold to TERNA S.A. in January 2010. The corresponding impact on net profit after taxes and minority rights for 2010 stands at €14.6 million.
The EPC Projects Sector posted the strongest growth of business volumes in 2011, with record-high sales and profitability. In particular, the turnover of the Group's subsidiary METKA climbed to €1,003.7 million from €581.3 million in 2010, a rise attributed to the significant acceleration in the implementation of signed contracts abroad, especially in the Turkish and Syrian markets. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) stood at €161.6 million, up from €101.3 million last year, with the EBITDA margin sustained at a high level (16.1%). Net profit stood at €115.0 million against €60.7 million in 2010.
It should be noted here that, to ensure comparability, the figures given above for turnover and EBITDA 2010 do not include €32.4 million of non-incurring income, representing discounted income from projects of ETADE S.A., a METKA subsidiary sold to TERNA S.A. in January 2010. The corresponding impact on net profit after taxes and minority rights for 2010 stands at €26.4 million.
This performance establishes METKA as one of the strongest players in the EPC market for energy projects in Europe and beyond, as well as one of the leading Greek exporting companies, with a signed backlog standing at nearly €1.7 billion. METKA is today carrying out simultaneously EPC projects totalling 5,000 MW in 6 countries.
METKA's recent successes in securing projects in developing markets such as Iraq and Algeria serves as proof of the company's strong competitive international presence and open up good prospects for expanding the share it currently holds in the market of power projects in Europe, Turkey, N. Africa and the Middle East.
The Group's Metallurgy and Mining Sector posted an increase of 4% in turnover, which stood at €521 million, mainly driven by the increased aluminium production. Core profitability, however, posted a decline, as a number of domestic factors, such as the delay in arriving at a final agreement with the PPC on the pricing of electricity, the special taxes levied on the consumption of electricity and natural gas, and the increased financial costs, have burdened significantly this particular activity.
The sector's performance was also negatively affected by the global situation, which was characterised by the rise in the prices for energy and raw materials and the weakened US Dollar.
In view of the above negative developments, the Management is going ahead with a new ambitious programme aimed at curtailing operating costs. The initial agreement for the acquisition of the bauxite operations of S&B in Greece, in order to improve the competitiveness of the Metallurgy Sector for the next twenty years, forms part of this programme. The "FUTURE" programme focuses on 10 key areas that the company is addressing in parallel, and is scheduled for completion at the end of 2013.
The Energy Sector posted for the first time a turnover in excess of €130 million, and its contribution accounts for 14.4% of the Group's total operating profitability (EBITDA) for 2011. This performance is considered very satisfactory, considering that it was driven primarily by the Ag. Nikolaos plant, which started its commercial operation in June. It is pointed out that the 437 MW thermal plant of KORINTHOS POWER is expected to enter into commercial operation during April, while the commercial license for the Ag. Nikolaos high-efficiency Combined Heat and Power Plant (Cogeneration Plant) is still pending.
Given the high efficiency of the Group's plants and the ability to secure Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) supplies on competitive terms, the Energy Sector is expected to post the highest growth in business volumes and to become the key driver that will shape the financial results for 2012.
The launch of the trial operation of the KORINTHOS POWER plant in December 2011 marked the completion of the first phase of the Group's thermal plants investment plan. The Group has now become the second largest player in the energy sector after the PPC, and is proceeding with new significant investments with a focus on the RES sector.
*The percent changes given in the highlights reflect the comparisons of figures for 2011 to those for 2010 and exclude the non-recurring income from the sale of ETADE S.A.
For more details, please contact:
Mrs Katerina Mouzouraki, MYTILINOS Group Press & Media Relations Supervisor (Tel.: 210 6877484, Fax: 210 6877400, e-mail: katerina.mouzouraki@mytilineos.gr).

AEGEAN AIRLINES S.A. : Financial Results 2011
|
2011 Results
Revenue grew by 13% to €668m, driven by international network expansion and international traffic growth that reached 15% through the operation of 102 routes (schedule & charter), which compensated - in terms of revenue – the weak demand in the domestic market.
Net result after taxes came to a loss of €27.2m compared to losses of €23.3m in 2010. It is noted that FY2010 result was burdened by one-off social contribution tax charges of €8m.
Rising fuel costs and the significant weakness in demand from Greek consumers for both domestic and international travel, throughout the year and especially during the last quarter of the year, were the main factors behind the deterioration of operating result.
More specifically, fuel costs rose by €62m to €184m, with the biggest part of the rise - of €45m - stemming from the 39% rise in the price of oil.
Despite the loss making result, the Company achieved an improvement in operating cashflow, allowing for the investment in slots in London Heathrow and Paris CDG airports, whilst also maintaining a healthy capital structure with cash and cash equivalents at €166.8m.
Mr. Dimitris Gerogiannis, Managing Director, commented:
« During 2011, cost containment efforts through the fleet homogeneity and productivity gains, were not enough to offset the consequences of the crisis and the effect of oil prices that rose by 39%. In addition, international expansion yielded commercial benefits but had a short-term burden on financial results, as is the case for any new investment. The environment continues to be weak with a further drop in demand in the first quarter of 2012. Within this deteriorating environment, our efforts concentrate on cost cutting initiatives, the improvement of our competitiveness through the offering of attractive fares and the continuous adjustment of our network depending on market conditions, our strategy and any opportunities that arise. »

As at 31/12/2011, Group’s total debt amounted to 146.45 m Euros from 99.03 m Euros in 2010, increased by 47.88%, mainly due to the increase in long-term bank liabilities and other obligations of the subsidiaries operating in the energy sector (from 70.66 m Euros in 2010 to 95.25 m Euros in 2011), as a result of the construction of a new wind farm of 35,4MW by AIOLIKI ADERES S.A., and due to the increase in trade and other obligations of Parent Company (from 14.04 m Euros to 21.31 m Euros), as a consequence of the prolongation of the repayment period to the principal supplier FUJITSU GENERAL Ltd.

SIDENOR S.A. (FORMER ERLIKON) : FISCAL YEAR 2011 RESULTS
|
Athens, Wednesday March 28 2012
ANNOUNCEMENT
FISCAL YEAR 2011 RESULTS
In 2011, SIDENOR Group achieved an increase in its turnover, both in terms of volume and value. More specifically, consolidated turnover increased by 25.6% standing in the fiscal year of 2011 at 1,247.4 mil. euro compared to 993.4 mil. euro in 2010, as a result of the Group’s strategic decision to expand its product portfolio adding new value added products, as for example flat products and special steels, the penetration of the Group in new geographic markets and the significant increase of the turnover of the subsidiary CORINTH PIPEWORKS.
During 2011, consolidated EBITDA decreased by 30.4% at 34.8 mil. euro compared to 50 mil. euro in 2010. Consolidated results before taxes stood at losses of 59.4 mil. euro compared to losses of 30 mil. euro in 2010, while net consolidated results after taxes and minority rights stood at losses of 48.9 mil. euro (or losses of 0.5084 euro per share) compared to losses of 23 mil. euro (or losses of 0.2391 euro per share) in the fiscal year 2010. It is noted that the financial results have been negatively affected by the continuous significant drop in the construction activity in Greece.
For 2012, taking into consideration the changing conditions in the European and international markets, the main pillars of the Group's growth strategy are to strengthen its market share in the existing markets where the Group already operates, the geographic penetration into new developing markets which absorb a great deal of the current global demand as well as the expansion of the product range. Moreover, Group’s management focuses on the continuing utilization of the high potentials of the Group’s production facilities and the optimization of the operating cost as well as the strengthening of the sales and distribution network, as recently realized with the start of operation of the new subsidiary SIDERAL Shpk in Albania.
Publication: Wednesday March 28, 2012, following the end of ATHEX’s trading session.

Financial Performance 2011:
The M. J. Maillis Group achieved a turnover of €279 million in 2011, up 6.5% compared with 2010, as a result of the Group’s on-going economic recovery.
The gross profit margin at 18.32% increased by 1.6 percentage points in comparison to the previous year, as a result of the improved production cost and the increased sales volume, even though the Group, due to limited cash availability, continued to purchase raw materials at non competitive prices and terms.
Excluding extraordinary income and expenditure principally arising from foreign exchange differences and non recurring income and expenses, operating EBITDA for 2011 amounted to €8,867 million (compared with €4,018 million in 2010).
Total EBITDA, with upward trend, amounted to €6,908 million (compared with -€11,243 million for 2010) as a result of improved gross profit margin and lower operating expenses. It is noted that the EBITDA of 2010 had been burdened with impairment of assets and know how amounting to €10 million.
Profit before tax amounted to €1.8 million compared with a loss of €58.5 million for the corresponding period of 2010 while profit after tax amounted to €1.7 million compared with losses of €63.5 million for the corresponding period of 2010. Profitability in 2011 was the result of positive EBITDA, as it is described above, extraordinary gain arising from the debt restructuring, as it is described in detail in Note 19 of the financial statements, lower extraordinary provisions compared with 2010 and the positive impact of deferred taxes there was an adverse effect from foreign exchange differences.
Restructuring:
As announced on 30 September 2011, the Group has completed the negotiations with its lenders with respect to the debt restructuring and on that date signed the final agreements with its debt providers. Furthermore, as announced on 7 October 2011, the Group completed the financial restructuring process resulting in:
- The refinancing of existing loans amounting to 190,27 million Euros,
- New financing of working capital amounting to 16 million Euros, and
- The completion of a debt-to-equity conversion (capitalization) of existing debt amounting to 74.9 million Euros. With the completion of the restructuring process and as a result of the debt-to-equity share capital increase that resulted in the issuing of 249,748,542 new ordinary, registered shares, with a par value of EUR 0.30 per share, the Company’s lenders acquired a total participation of 77.4% in the Company.
The financial statement impact of the finalisation of the debt restructuring was accounted for as of 6 October 2011, the effective date of completion of the restructuring process.
Group’s Management considers that the signing of the debt restructuring will enable a new positive era of sustainable growth for the Group.

2012 will be a difficult year due to the on-going recession in the European economy coupled with the domestic financial and liquidity crisis.

KLEEMANN HELLAS S.A. : FINANCIAL RESULTS 2011
|
The Group of Kleemann presented profitability and increase in its turnover in the fiscal year 2011 and was recently rated by ICAP GROUP and classified as one of the “Strongest Companies in Greece”.
More specifically, based on the ICAP score, KLEEMANN HELLAS S.A. is ranked amongst a group of companies with the lowest credit risk in Greece. The ICAP Group is recognized by the Bank of Greece as an External Organization of Credit Ratings and by the European Central Bank as an Acceptable Source of Credit Ratings and from the Hellenic Capital Market Commission Market Authority-ESMA as a Credit Rating Agency.
Regarding financial figures, turnover of the Group amounted to 91,2 mln euros showing an increase of 0,3% compared to the previous fiscal year. Despite the losses incurred in the Greek market, the Group managed to achieve increased sales through the strengthening of its presence in the international market, raising the percentage of exports in the total turnover to 68,0% from 55,3% in 2010.
Moreover, the company succeeded in further increasing the geographic dispersion of its clientele and specifically was active in 75 countries as compared to 63 in 2010 and 57 in 2009 (increase of 31,6% compared to 2009). Simultaneously, it increased the number of its clients by 42% compared to 2010, when the respective increase compared to 2009 was 37%. Approximately 17% of the value of exports in 2011 came from new clients.
The Group’s gross margin in 2011 amounts to 30,6% reduced in comparison with the relative last year period where it was 33,8%. This reduction is due to higher raw material prices, as well as the intensification of efforts to penetrate developing new markets. Similarly affected is the net profit margin, while it also includes high provisions for doubtful debtors amounting to 3,5 mln euros. Also, it is aggravated by one-off administrative expenses – attributed to growth, training and support issues of the new subsidiaries in China and the United Kingdom.
As a result, the consolidated profit before tax in the examined period amounted to 2,4 mln euros, from 5,8 mln euros reduced by 58,6% in comparison with 2010. Earnings before interest, tax and amortization (EBITDA) totaled 6.1 mln euros, compared to 8,9 mln euros in 2010, reduced by 32,4%, while Profit after tax and non controlling interests amounted to 0,1 mln euros, from 2,3 mln euros in 2010.
For the fiscal year 2011, the Board of Directors does not intend to propose the distribution of dividend to the annual General Meeting.
As regards 2012, penetrating new markets will continue to be the Group’s main objective, in order to balance the losses of the domestic market, as it successfully achieved in 2011.
“KLEEMANN’s response to the crisis is extraversion and the geographical dispersion of its clientele. In the context of this strategy, we aim to further enhance our presence in countries where we are already active, develop new bases through the founding of subsidiaries, as well as to open new markets all over the world”, states KLEEMANN’s management. |

Announcement in accordance
with paragraph 4.1.4.4. of ATHEX regulation
March 28th, 2012. Athens, Greece – Within the framework of the release of M. J. MAILLIS S.A. financial statements for the 01/01/2011 – 31/12/2011 period and in accordance with paragraph 4.1.4.4. of ATHEX regulation, the investment public is informed that the company’s shares remain listed in the “Under Supervision” category to which they were transferred on 3/4/2009 following the ATHEX BoD decision reached on 3/4/2009. The reason for the transfer to the “Under Supervision” category was that based on the 31/12/2008 full year financial statement, losses for the yearly period exceeded 30% of net position without any actions towards improvement of the situation via a share capital increase (article 3.1.2.5. of ATHEX regulation).
Since then, the Group has launched an extensive restructuring and cost reduction program, the results of which are already evident in the improvement of company operations and in the reduction of operating costs. As it becomes evident from the group's full year financial results 2011, all financial indicators are improved. The restructuring’s second phase is in progress and we expect further reduction in expenses and production costs as the program unfolds.
