DFDS ANNUAL REPORT 2009 FOREWORD 7 ROUGH WATERS AND EXPANSION We achieved a result for 2009 among the best in the sector, and we took a decisive step towards our vision of a European, sea-based transport network. Early in 2009, when it became clear that the global recession would inevitably cause a significant decline in financial performance, we set ourselves the financial goal of achieving one of the best results in the sector. As a result of a great team effort, a number of significant operational adjustments and DFDS’ strategically solid market position in Northern Europe, we have met this goal. BENT ØSTERGAARD NIELS SMEDEGAARD CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD PRESIDENT AND CEO ROUGH waters Our business model was challenged in 2009 by the historically steep decline in freight volume at the start of the year caused by the recession. In all material respects, our strategy and business model have been validated. This applies to the value of a network of routes that reduces the vulnerability of each individual activity, and also to integrated passenger and freight routes. It applies to our capacity to secure freight volumes through long-term industrial contracts and our own trailer business, plus the insight and understanding of the freight market that follows. On top of this comes our focus on creating value for freight customers through solutions that cuts across business areas. Finally, our increasingly integrated management model has ensured an effective implementation of operational adjustments. However, the recession has also raised questions about the flex- ibility of our tonnage. Our business model must be able to handle the sudden fluctuations that undoubtedly from time to time will impact the market. One priority is to optimise our ability to plan and manage the balance between owned and chartered tonnage, particularly with regard to the flexibility from timing of the return or extension of chartered tonnage. EXpansion DFDS’ network strategy is the driving force behind the acquisition of Norfolkline. This acquisition will enable us to achieve significant econo- mies of scale and make progress toward our vision of a European, sea- based transport network. The merger of our companies will generate significant synergies, and we expect that the transaction will enhance our profitability as soon as the market recovers. The acquisition is still subject to approval by the relevant competition authorities. THANK you! An unusually low degree of visibility characterised 2009, and a degree of uncertainty still surrounds the future economic outlook. In this situation, we are therefore particularly grateful for the loyalty and perseverance of our staff, customers, shareholders and other partners. 8 STRATEGY DFDS ANNUAL REPORT 2009 FROM ROUTES TO NETWORKS The increasing size of freight customers encourages consolidation in DFDS’ vision order to support delivery of competitive transport solutions. These require wide market coverage, innovative customer concepts and ef- n A European, sea-based transport network that provides ficient information systems. There is also a need for ongoing streamlining competitive, differentiated and value-generating transport of operations in order to achieve lower unit costs.
