HALF-YEARLY RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30TH JUNE 2012
OVERVIEW
The Group's Asian hotels continued to enjoy good trading environments in the first half of 2012, with improved performances in most locations. In other regions, results were influenced by uncertain economic conditions. Four new management contracts were announced in the period, increasing the brand's global presence to 45 hotels in operation or under development.
PERFORMANCE
Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the first six months of 2012 were US$81 million, compared to US$84 million in the first half of 2011 which benefited from US$16 million branding fees partially offset by US$11 million of pre-opening expenses relating to the Paris hotel.
The Group's underlying profit for the period was US$29 million, compared to US$33 million in the same period in 2011. Underlying earnings per share were US¢2.91, compared with US¢3.33 in 2011.
Profit attributable to shareholders was US$30 million, which includes the write back of a US$1 million provision against asset impairment. This compares to US$43 million in the first half of 2011, which included a US$10 million gain following the grant of a long-term leasehold interest in London at no cost.
An unchanged interim dividend of US¢2.00 per share has been declared.
GROUP REVIEW
Subsidiaries
At the Group's two wholly-owned Hong Kong hotels, occupancy levels remained relatively stable throughout the period enabling average rates to increase moderately. In Tokyo, further recovery from the effects of last year's natural disaster led to an increase in overall occupancy to 57%, compared with 42% in the first half of 2011. In Jakarta, a strong Indonesian economy enabled the hotel to increase revenue per available room ('RevPAR') by 33% in local currency terms.
In Europe, performances were impacted by a reduced level of corporate business, although demand from the leisure sector was more resilient. In both London and Geneva, RevPAR was lower than the comparable period. In Munich, however, a strong increase in average rate resulted in an improved performance. The Paris hotel, which celebrated its first anniversary in June, is building market share while maintaining a high average rate.
In The Americas, the Washington D.C. hotel did well to increase its overall revenues despite reduced occupancy.
Associates and Joint Ventures
The share of results of associates and joint ventures increased during the period, principally due to improved operating performances in Singapore, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.
DEVELOPMENTS
Management contracts for new hotels under development in Bodrum in Turkey, Marrakech in Morocco, and Chengdu in China were announced in the first half of the year. In addition, the Group has successfully taken over the management of an existing 127-room luxury hotel in the United States, which has been rebranded Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta. Within the next 18 months, four new hotels are scheduled to open in Guangzhou, Taipei, Shanghai and Milan.
Mandarin Oriental currently operates 28 hotels and has a further 17 hotels under development. Together these represent over 11,000 rooms in 28 countries. In addition, the Group operates or has under development 14 Residences at Mandarin Oriental connected to its properties.
OUTLOOK
While Mandarin Oriental's performance for the remainder of 2012 will inevitably be influenced by fragile global economic conditions, the Group's results will reflect a full year of trading in Paris and recovering demand in Tokyo and Bangkok.
