According to the strategy, Baltika grows ca 9% per year until 2014, reaching the sales of 1.13 billion kroons. Topline growth has planned based on experience, general assumptions and the growth of BG brands. Main drivers of the sales remain to be Monton and Mosaic with the sales growth by the year 2014 of 171 million kroons for Monton and 109 million kroons for Mosaic. Main reasons for Baltika's situation today are declining sales caused by people's radically changed buying behaviour. Almost 66% of consumers stopped buying new clothes during the crisis. Sales growth bases on increasing purchasing power, quickening consumption and BG brands focusing more on the needs of their target customers. With the intention to enhance the efficiency of the business model, Baltika Group continues monitoring its markets and stores portfolio and developing its brands. Gross margin is going to be improved - the target is 54,9% by 2014. Main drivers of the growth are the stabile intake margin and lower markdowns needed due to the overall improvement of the economy and better stock situation. By the year 2014, OPEX will decline by 17,5% and the OPEX/sales ratio is going down from today's 67,5% to 43,3%. 1 EUR = 15,6466 EEK Ülle Järv Member of the Management Board +372 6302 731
