MARFIN INVESTMENT GROUP FINANCIAL RESULTS: NINE MONTHS 2013
Further enhancement of operating EBITDA profitability from business operations to €60.6m vs. €36.8m in 9M 2012 Consolidated 9M 2013 revenues of €941.1m, a 3.1% annual reduction, due to the prolonged adverse economic and market conditions. On a quarterly basis, the annual rate of revenue decline decelerated further (-2.3% y-o-y in Q3 2013 vs. -3.1% in Q2 2013 and -4.2% in Q1 2013).
EBITDA from business operations 1 of €60.6m, a 65% annual improvement compared to €36.8m in 9M 2012, attributed to widening gross profit margins, cost containment effectiveness and improved efficiency. The profitability improvement is primarily associated to better results from ATTICA, FAI and HYGEIA. Consolidated reported EBITDA of €49.8m, vs. €26.9m in 9M 2012.
Consolidated net loss, after tax and minorities, of €129.8m, adversely impacted by one-off deferred taxes (€35m pre-minorities) and discontinued operations’ losses (€17.3m). The relevant loss in 9M 2012 amounted to €966.1m.
9M 2013 Net Asset Value (NAV) at €1.22bn, translating to a NAV per share of €1.59.
Cash balances, including restricted cash, of €196m at consolidated and €100m at parent company level. Group receivables from the Greek state at €109m on 30.09.2013 vs. €126m on 31.12.2013.
Continuous dynamic asset rebalancing, aimed at deleveraging, yields the desired results, as consolidated gross debt declined by €59m. Group net debt at €1.67bn vs. €1.70bn in FY2012.
The successful completion of the sale of Olympic Air to Aegean Airlines, in late October, resulted to a capital gain of approximately €43m. The capital gain will appear on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group in Q4 2013.

KEY EVENTS AND HIGHLIGHTS OF 9M 2013:
VIVARTIA 9M 2012 9M 2013 Sales €471.0m €447.2m FMCG €318.6m €312.3m Food Services €157.4m €138.9m EBITDA €11.3m €11.1m FMCG €7.8m €6.2m Food Services €3.5m €5.0m Net Income after minorities €(37.3)m €(45.6)m
Dairy: the division significantly outperformed the market thanks to important new product launches in value accretive segments (premium milk and yogurt). Despite market consumption decline of 9% in the total Dairy & Drinks market, Vivartia’s Dairy revenues declined 3% y-o-y, resulting in significant market share gains (market share in the overall Dairy & Drinks market at 23.8% in 9M 2013 vs. 22.4% in FY2012).
Frozen Vegetables & Dough: the Frozen Foods division reported 3% annual sales growth vs. 1% y-o-y decline in the total market. This resulted in market share gains (market share in frozen vegetables at 64.2% in 9M 2013 vs. 61.0% in FY2012 and in frozen dough at 22.7% in 9M 2013 vs. 21.6% in FY2012), while it also validated the effectiveness of the strategy of increasing brand awareness and penetration as well as price competitiveness attracting new users and gaining market share.
Food Services (FSE - Goody’s Group and Everest Group): performance continued to be adversely impacted (revenues down c12% y-o-y) by the combination of the protracted recession in Greece (resulting to lower consumption) and the high VAT rate of 23%, which had a clear negative effect to profitability. As of 1 August 2013 and for a pilot period until the end of the year, the VAT rate has been reduced back to 13% (vs. 23% previously), which appears to have an initial positive effect on consumption. Importantly, FSE’s travel related business (airport, vessels and national road motorist service stations) has been positively affected by the improved summer tourism, posting sales growth of 4% y-o-y. The travel related business is largely responsible (+135% y-o-y) for the substantial improvement to the Food Services EBITDA.
Vivartia remains focused and committed on a major, company-wide, cost containment effort, which in the last 3 years has yielded cumulative savings of €73m. These include organizational (synergies and economies of scale through the operational merger of business units, e.g. merger of Goody’s and Everest administrative functions) as well as operational savings (production cost, pack materials, energy costs etc.). The ongoing cost rationalisation is expected to generate more tangible benefits in the coming quarters (annualised effect of the above and new planned interventions).

Investor Release 2 December 2013
Bottom-line results have been burdened by €11.6m one-off deferred taxes, due to the increase in the corporate tax rate in Greece (from 20% to 26% as of 1 January 2013).
To address the worsening market conditions in Greece, Vivartia has embarked on the internationalisation of its operations. These major initiatives involve: FMCG: in September 2012, Vivartia signed a Joint Venture (JV) agreement with Exeed Industries, the industrial arm of National Holding, for an exclusive cooperation on the food and agriculture sector in the UAE, GCC and MENA region, with a geographical scope that encompasses in excess of 330m consumers. The strategic aim is to become a significant regional player and the market leader in UAE. The JV will also focus on the set up of a dairy, juice and tea processing plant in the UAE with planned start of production in Q4 2014. In the beginning of 2013 the JV started its operation, while in August 2013 it started the importation of current Vivartia products (frozen vegetables and dough) along with new products specifically designed and formulated to the Middle East regional market’s needs. Food Services: establish international presence through the signing of master franchise agreements in order to set up a network in the Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Albania and other Balkan countries (Montenegro, FYROM). The first 2 stores in Belarus commenced operations in October, while another 2 stores are planned to commence operations by the end of 2013. Exports: Vivartia has launched a strategy to increase the share of exports and international business in the overall revenues (currently combined at 7% of group sales). In this context, the company has visible presence in the three biggest global food exhibitions every year, while its organisation structure is based on countries/regions instead of products.
ATTICA GROUP 9M 2012 9M 2013 Sales €207.2m €214.8m EBITDA €13.8m €32.4m Net Income after minorities €(15.0)m €4.2m
In 9M 2013, group revenues increased 3.7% y-o-y, thanks to higher traffic volumes in both the domestic market (+6% y-o-y in passengers, +2% y-o-y in private vehicles and +5% in freight units), following the deployment of one additional vessel in the domestic market (in July 2012 Blue Star Patmos sailed on her first maiden voyage in the North Aegean), as well as the Adriatic Sea routes (+13% y-o-y in passengers, +13% y-o-y in private vehicles and +2% in freight units).
Importantly, Attica’s traffic volume growth across all categories in the Adriatic Sea far outpaced that of the total market (+7% y-o-y in passengers, +7% y-o-y in private vehicles and +1% in freight units for the total market in the Adriatic Sea), resulting in market

Investor Release 2 December 2013
share gains. Overall, in 9M 2013 Attica managed to maintain and even strengthen its leading market position in both the domestic market and the Adriatic Sea routes.
Group EBITDA more than doubled y-o-y to €32.4m (vs. €13.8m a year ago), on account of the aforesaid revenue increase, lower fuel costs (fuel cost per metric tonne, expressed in € terms, declined c9% y-o-y), efficient fleet management (journey time and frequency of service on certain routes adjusted for the level of demand) as well as ongoing cost rationalisation (SG&A declined c5% y-o-y). Most importantly, Attica delivered a positive net result (after tax) for the first time since 9M 2009.
In early April 2013, Attica concluded the sale of the Ro-Pax vessel Superfast VI to Genting Group for €54m in cash. Following the vessel disposal, Attica reduced its debt obligations by repaying c€50m to its lenders, including the full repayment of the loan related to the disposed vessel as well as partial repayment of other loans.
In April 2013, Blue Star Patmos (the youngest passenger ferry in operation in the Mediterranean Sea) received the best ferry award in the International Shipping Awards event organized in Rotterdam by ShipPax magazine. Blue Star Patmos received two awards: one for her exceptional design and one for her outstanding interior concept.
In May 2013, Attica renewed its joint service agreement with ANEK Lines (originally signed in May 2011) for another 3 years (until May 2017) related to the employment of vessels of the two companies in the international route Patras-Igoumenitsa-Ancona and the domestic route Piraeus-Heraklion, Crete.
Attica is at an advanced stage of negotiations with lender banks to restructure existing debt facilities. Note that the group has maintained its debt leverage below 50% of fleet book value, whilst completing its fleet renewal programme.
Attica continuously assesses a series of actions for further cost containment and working capital management, aimed at strengthening its liquidity. Additionally Attica examines plans for deployment in new routes and evaluates alternative fleet deployment combinations.
HYGEIA GROUP 9M 2012 9M 2013 Sales €177.9m €171.1m EBITDA €12.7m €14.5m Net Income after minorities €(10.3)m €(11.4)m
In 9M 2013, amidst a seasonally weak quarter (Q3) and challenging operating conditions, which translated into 3.8% annual revenue decline, the Group delivered a healthy operating EBITDA growth of 15% y-o-y to €14.5m.
Group bottom-line results were adversely impacted by (a) €2.5m one-off deferred taxes, due to the increase in the corporate tax rate in Greece (from 20% to 26% as of 1 January

2013) and (b) losses from discontinued operations of €4.3m, related to the disposal of Evangelismos hospital in Cyprus (vs. €3.1m discontinued operations losses in 9M 2012).
In March 2013, Hygeia completed the sale of its 65.76% stake in Achillion Hospital in Cyprus to an associate physician. The transaction improved the group’s liquidity and financial position by €11m. The hospital was built in 2004 in a 7,000 sqm facility located in Limassol with 90 licensed beds (70 active), 8 operating theatres, 3 delivery rooms and 1 Intensive Care Unit.
In late April 2013, Hygeia completed the sale of its 97.32% stake in Evangelismos hospital in Paphos, Cyprus to associate physicians. The transaction improved Hygeia’s liquidity and financial position by €3.8m. The hospital has 71 licensed beds (42 active), 8 operating theatres and 3 delivery rooms. With this transaction, Hygeia has disengaged completely from Cyprus, while group deposits in financial institutions in Cyprus did not exceed €100,000.
SINGULARLOGIC 9M 2012 9M 2013 Sales €40.2m €36.1m EBITDA €0.2m €0.1m Net Income after minorities €(4.8)m €(5.8)m
9M 2013 revenues were adversely impacted by the prolonged challenging market conditions (declining IT spending, particularly in the SME segment and protracted delays in public sector projects), as well as the absence of last year’s revenues related to the two general elections in Greece. Nevertheless, operating profitability (EBITDA) remained at break-even levels, on the back of transformational management initiatives (including, among others, thorough operational restructuring, cost cutting, product offering rationalisation, new product launches and a more focused sales approach).
SingularLogic remains committed to growing its market share in its home market.
In January 2013, SingularLogic was awarded a €3.3m project by the Athens Bar Association related to on-line services for lawyers, judges and citizens.
In April 2013, SingularLogic completed successfully the recertification of all of its core operations according to ISO9001 and ISO14001 by Bureau Veritas Certification. The company has been ISO14001 certified for operating in an environmentally responsible manner since 2011.
