MANDARIN ORIENTAL INTERNATIONAL LIMITED

HALF-YEARLY RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30TH JUNE 2013

 

OVERVIEW

Most of the Group's hotels benefited from positive trading conditions in the first half of 2013, with pleasing performances achieved across the majority of the portfolio. Two new luxury hotels opened in Guangzhou and Shanghai and a new management contract for a hotel in Istanbul was announced in the period. The Group's total global portfolio of properties in operation or under development is now 45 hotels in 27 countries.

 

PERFORMANCE

Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the first six months of 2013 were up 34% at US$107 million. The first half benefited from US$7 million of one-off items relating to the acquisition in February of the freehold rights of the Group's Paris hotel. Underlying earnings have also benefited from the resulting increased contribution from the Paris hotel and rental income from the two retail units. The Group's underlying profit for the period was US$54 million, compared to US$28 million in 2012. Underlying earnings per share were US¢5.36 compared with US¢2.83 in 2012. Profit attributable to shareholders was US$57 million, which includes the writeback of a US$3 million provision against asset impairment. This compares to US$30 million in the first half of 2012, which included the writeback of a US$1.5 million provision against asset impairment.

 

An interim dividend of US¢2.00 per share has been declared, unchanged from 2012.

 

GROUP REVIEW

At the Group's two wholly-owned Hong Kong hotels occupancy and average rates were in line with the same period in 2012, despite a softening in corporate demand. The Group's other Asian hotels performed well, particularly in Tokyo where visitor arrivals continued to increase.

 

In Europe, improved results in Munich, further stabilization in Paris and a solid performance in London more than compensated for subdued results in Geneva, where market conditions remained difficult.

 

In The Americas, demand increased as the trading environment improved, resulting in higher occupancies and average rates across the region.

 

DEVELOPMENTS

Within the next 18 months, four new hotels are scheduled to open in Taipei, Marrakech, Bodrum and Beijing.

 

In May, the Group announced a new management contract for a luxury hotel that will be developed on a prime waterfront site in Istanbul, which is scheduled to open in 2016.

 

Mandarin Oriental currently operates 29 hotels and has a further 16 hotels under development. Together these represent over 11,000 rooms, with 19 hotels in Asia, 12 in The Americas and 14 in Europe, Middle East and North Africa. In addition, the Group operates or has under development 14 Residences at Mandarin Oriental connected to its properties.

 

PEOPLE

Simon Keswick stepped down as Chairman in May, and remains a non-executive Director. We appreciate greatly his tremendous contribution as Chairman of the Company since his appointment in 1986.

 

OUTLOOK

While the economic outlook is uncertain, Mandarin Oriental remains in a strong competitive and financial position.

Mandarin Oriental International Limited

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

1.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The condensed financial statements have not been audited or reviewed by the Group's auditor pursuant to the UK Auditing Practices Board guidance on the review of interim financial information.

 

The following standards, amendments and interpretations which are effective in the current accounting period and relevant to the Group's operations are adopted in 2013:

 

IFRS 10

Consolidated Financial Statements

IFRS 11

Joint Arrangements

IFRS 12

Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

IFRS 13

Fair Value Measurement

Amendments to IFRS 7

Disclosure - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial

Liabilities

Amendments to IFRSs 10, 11

and 12

Consolidated Financial Statements, Joint Arrangements

and Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities:

Transition Guidance

Amendments to IAS 1

Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income

IAS 19 (amended 2011)

Employee Benefits

IAS 27 (2011)

Separate Financial Statements

IAS 28 (2011)

Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

Annual Improvement to IFRS

2009 - 2011 Cycle

There have been no changes to the accounting policies described in the 2012 annual financial statements except for the adoption of IAS 19 (amended 2011).

 

IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements' replaces SIC Interpretation 12 'Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities' and most of IAS 27 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements'. It contains a new single consolidation model that identifies control as the basis for consolidation for all types of entities. It provides a definition of control that comprises the elements of power over an investee; exposure of rights to variable returns from an investee; and ability to use power to affect the reporting entity's returns.

 

IFRS 11 'Joint Arrangements' replaces IAS 31 'Interests in Joint Ventures' and SIC 13 'Jointly Controlled Entities - Non Monetary Contributions by Venturers'. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations (whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities of the joint arrangements) or joint ventures (whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements). Joint operations are accounted for by showing the party's interest in the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and/or its relative share of jointly controlled assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, if any. Accounting for joint ventures is now covered by IAS 28 (2011) as proportionate consolidation is no longer permitted.

1.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

IFRS 12 'Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities' requires entities to disclose information that helps financial statements readers to evaluate the nature, risks and financial effects associated with the entity's interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and unconsolidated structured entities. Disclosure required includes significant judgements and assumptions made in determining whether an entity controls, jointly controls, significantly influences or has some other interest in other entities.

 

IFRS 13 'Fair Value Measurement' requires entities to disclose information about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value, as well as information about the uncertainty inherent in fair value measurements. The standard applies to both financial and non-financial items measured at fair value. Fair value is now defined as 'the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date' (i.e. an exit price).

 

Amendments to IFRS 7 'Disclosures - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities' focus on disclosures of quantitative information about recognized financial instruments that are offset in the balance sheet, as well as those recognized financial instruments that are subject to master netting or similar arrangements irrespective of whether they are offset.

 

Amendments to IFRSs 10, 11 and 12 on transition guidance provide additional transition relief to IFRSs 10, 11 and 12, limiting the requirement to provide adjusted comparative information to only the preceding comparative period. For disclosures related to unconsolidated structured entities, the amendments will remove the requirement to present comparative information for periods before IFRS 12 is first applied.

 

Amendments to IAS 1 'Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income' improve the consistency and clarity of the presentation of items of other comprehensive income. The amendments require entities to separate items presented in other comprehensive income into two groups, based on whether or not they may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future. Items that will not be reclassified − such as remeasurements of defined benefit pension plans − will be presented separately from items that may be reclassified in the future − such as deferred gains and losses on cash flow hedges. The amounts of tax related to the two groups are required to be allocated on the same basis.

 

IAS 19 (amended 2011) 'Employee Benefits' requires, for defined benefit plans, the assumed return on plan assets recognized in the profit and loss to be the same as the rate used to discount the defined benefit obligation. Previously, the Group determined income on plan assets based on their long-term rate of expected return. It also requires past service costs to be recognized immediately in profit or loss. Additional disclosures are required to present the characteristics of defined benefit plans, the amount recognized in the financial statements, and the risks arising from defined benefit plans and multi-employer plans. The Group has applied the amended standard retrospectively and the comparative financial statements have been restated in accordance with the transition provisions of the standard. Details of the effect of the change are set out below.

 

1.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

IAS 27 (2011) 'Separate Financial Statements' supersedes IAS 27 (2008) and prescribes the accounting and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements. There is no impact on the consolidated financial statements as the changes only affect the separate financial statements of the investing entity.

 

IAS 28 (2011) 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures' supersedes IAS 28 (2008) and prescribes the accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures and sets out the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures.

 

Amendment to IAS 1 'Presentation of Financial Statements' clarifies the disclosure requirements for comparative information when an entity provides a third balance sheet either as required by IAS 8, 'Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors'; or voluntarily. When an entity produces an additional balance sheet as required by IAS 8, the balance sheet should be as at the date of the beginning of the preceding period - that is, the opening position. No notes are required to support this balance sheet. When management provides additional comparative information voluntarily - for example, profit and loss account, balance sheet - it should present the supporting notes to these additional statements.

 

Amendment to IAS 16 'Property, Plant and Equipment' clarifies that spare parts and servicing equipment are classified as property, plant and equipment rather than inventory when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment. The previous wording of IAS 16 indicated that servicing equipment should be classified as inventory, even if it was used for more than one period. Following the amendment, this equipment used for more than one period is classified as property, plant and equipment.

 

Amendment to IAS 32 'Financial Instruments: Presentation' clarifies that income tax related to profit distributions is recognized in the profit and loss account, and income tax related to the costs of equity transactions is recognized in equity. Prior to the amendment, IAS 32 was ambiguous as to whether the tax effects of distributions and the tax effects of equity transactions should be accounted for in the profit and loss account or in equity.

 

Amendment to IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' clarifies the disclosure requirements for segment assets and liabilities in interim financial statements. A measure of total assets and liabilities is required for an operating segment in interim financial statements if such information is regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and there has been a material change in those measures since the last annual financial statements.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are calculated on the profit attributable to shareholders of US$56.8 million (2012: US$29.7 million) and on the weighted average number of 1,001.3 million (2012: 997.8 million) shares in issue during the period. The weighted average number excludes shares held by the Trustee of the Senior Executive Share Incentive Schemes.

 

Diluted earnings per share are calculated on profit attributable to shareholders of US$56.8 million (2012: US$29.7 million) and on the weighted average number of 1,003.5 million (2012: 1,000.4 million) shares after adjusting for the number of shares which are deemed to be issued for no consideration under the Senior Executive Share Incentive Schemes based on the average share price during the period.

Acquisition of Paris freehold interest

On 8th February 2013, the Group completed the acquisition of the freehold interest in the building housing Mandarin Oriental, Paris and two prime street front retail units from Société Foncière Lyonnaise for €290.0 million (US$388.9 million). The Group had paid a €10.0 million (US$13.1 million) advance deposit in late 2012; and the remaining balance together with transaction expenses of US$5.5 million was paid in February 2013.

 

The acquisition was partly funded by new five-year €150.0 million (US$201.1 million) debt facilities, with the balance from the Group's cash reserves.

 

Pursuant to this acquisition, one-off items totalling US$7.4 million have been credited to the profit and loss account in February 2013. These one-off credits include the release of lease accrual of €3.0 million (US$4.0 million), the capitalization of acquisition costs (US$1.5 million), as well as an exchange gain arising on acquisition (US$1.9 million).

Fair value estimation

(i) Financial instruments that are measured at fair value

For financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the balance sheet, the corresponding fair value measurements are disclosed by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

 

(a) Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities ('quoted prices in active markets')

The fair value of listed securities, which are classified as available-for-sale, is based on quoted prices in active markets at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used for listed investments held by the Group is the current bid price.

 

 

11.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

Fair value estimation (continued)

(b) Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly ('observable current market transactions')

The fair values of all interest rate swaps and caps, cross-currency swaps, forward foreign exchange contracts and credit default swaps are determined using rates quoted by the Group's bankers at the balance sheet date which are calculated by reference to market interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

 

The fair values of unlisted investments, which are classified as available-for-sale, are determined using prices quoted by brokers at the balance sheet date.

 

(c) Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data ('unobservable inputs')

The fair value of unlisted securities, which are classified as available-for-sale, is determined using valuation techniques by reference to observable current market transactions (including price-earnings and price-book multiples of listed securities of entities engaged in similar industries) or the market prices of the underlying investments with certain degree of entity specific estimates.

 

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.

(ii) Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value

The fair values of debtors and prepayments, bank balances and other liquid funds, creditors and accruals and current borrowings are assumed to approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

 

The fair values of long-term borrowings are based on market prices or are estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates.

 

 

 

12.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In the normal course of business the Group undertakes a variety of transactions with certain of its associates.
