report informations INTRODUCTION Annual report 2019 | 1 Business Non-financial Financial Other Introduction report report report informations Report by the President of Management Board In the year when Mercator celebrated its 70th anniversary, it again proved it is a successful company of systemic importance, the largest retailer in Slovenia and the region. Positive trends were seen in revenue, EBITDA, as well as in the bottom line. Thus, Mercator is proving that the pursuit of its business strategy has been yielding positive results. In 2019, Mercator Group realized 1.8 % growth of comparable sales revenue by reaching EUR 2.1 billion. Group’s normalized EBITDA (including IFRS 16 effect) was higher by 60.5% and realized net profit for the year of EUR 4.7 million. Additionally, Mercator Group significantly decreased net debt/EBITDA normalized ratio from 7.2x to 5.2x. Mercator Group successfully continued with the realisation of its business strategy, and the execution of financial and business restructuring. On top on accomplishing its objectives regarding net debt/EBITDA ratio, we additionally improved the maturity profile of our financial liabilities. Transaction that involved sale of ten shopping centres in Slovenia was completed, and the proceeds were used for repayment of financial liabilities. Divestment of Roda Centre New Belgrade was also completed, and the proceeds were also used for repayment of financial liabilities and trade payables. In the last two fiscal years, Mercator Group has achieved a business turnaround, despite the complex business environment in which the Group operates. The Group is continuing with financial restructuring and increasing its performance. Mercator Group continues with investments into its network development and new store concepts and it is the leader in digitalization and at least a step ahead of the competition. We have successful and long-term cooperation with our local and regional suppliers through our regional commercial platforms My brand and We love local. Mercator Group has also successfully completed super-senior facility refinancing, which is proof that the confidence of banks into Mercator's stability and development opportunities are increasing significantly. In late May of 2019, Mercator Group companies and VTB Bank (Europe) SE signed the contract documentation for refinancing of the Mercator Group's super-senior facility in the amount of EUR 80 million at considerably better terms. Moreover, the company Mercator–S d.o.o. and AIK Bank signed contractual documentation for refinancing the Serbian Deal on the restructuring of the financial debt of the company Mercator–S d.o.o., in the total amount of EUR 90 million. At Mercator Group's second strategic conference called Opportunities of the Future we presented our key achievements, which fulfilled our forecasts and predictions presented in the Conference year before along with the plans of future development. More than 2,000 employees and our key business partners attended this esteem event. We continued with refurbishment programme focusing on differentiation elements as our competitive advantage. Immense success was the implementation of Mercator’s Minute store format which was finished Annual report 2019 | 2 Business Non-financial Financial Other Introduction report report report informations with highlight of the year - the opening of new Maxi Gourmet Market store in Ljubljana as a new flagship store in gourmet food store segment. Mercator Group has consolidated its position in of its operations, and it is ready for the new development cycle that will pave the way for its future growth and development. The Supervisory Board has already approved the largest investment in Mercator Group's history – the construction of a logistics and distribution centre in Ljubljana. The new logistics centre will be the foundation of business efficiency and the Group's further development. It is strategically important to successfully complete the process of transfer Mercator’s shares to the Fortenova grupa, d.d. and thus provide Mercator with a stable owner which will support Mercator’s growth in the future. Mercator's Management Board will pursue its efforts towards all stakeholders to support a successful and prompt transfer to Fortenova Grupa. Finally, let me add the following: I write this letter during a declared epidemic, in emergency conditions and in a time of uncertain future. I simply cannot ignore this fact. I wish to thank again to all employees for their effort,

  • Urban Food Policies in Ede and Ljubljana Comparative Case Study Analysis on Rural-Urban Linkages
    10 JULI 2020 URBAN FOOD POLICIES IN EDE AND LJUBLJANA COMPARATIVE CASE STUDY ANALYSIS ON RURAL-URBAN LINKAGES ROELEVELD, ROOS 961001700100 Wageningen University Information page Master thesis Urban Food Policies in Ede and Ljubljana – Comparative case study in times of COVID-19 December 2019 – July 2020 Author: Roos Roeleveld Student number: 961001700100 Mail: [email protected] Education program: Master Organic Agriculture Specialization: Sustainable Food Systems Chair group: Rural Sociology Thesis code: RSO-80433 Wageningen University & Research Supervisor: Henk Oostindie Date: 10-07-2020 Place: Beuningen 1 Preface I want to present you my thesis: ‘Urban Food Policies in Ede and Ljubljana’. It is a comparative case study between the municipality of Ede and the municipality of Ljubljana, carried out in times of COVID-19. This research stemmed from my interest in food systems and urban-rural relations, and my passion for developing better food policies at a regional level. I am in favor of a holistic approach, and that is where urban food policies are often about. It is a relatively new policy field, which asks for investigation, evaluation and comparison between different places. My curiosity about different cultures attract me to the Balkan. Unfortunately, my stay only could last for two weeks. The thesis is part of my master program Organic Agriculture (specialization Sustainable Food Systems) at Wageningen University & Research. I also hope that this report can provide the municipality of Ede and Ljubljana some new interesting insights which they can use in the development of their Urban Food Policy. I want to thank my supervisor Henk Oostindie for the guidance during my research process.
