Profit and Loss Statement
2nd quarter 2007
Sales
In the 2nd quarter of 2007 the Company's total sales increased, year on year, by
9.9% to 176.4 mln EEK. Sales from the Company's main operating activities were
164.4 mln EEK. Sales in the main operating activity principally comprise of
sales of water and treatment of wastewater to domestic and commercial customers
within and outside of the services area, and fees received from the City of
Tallinn for operating and maintaining the stormwater system.
Sales of water and wastewater treatment were 152.9 mln EEK, a 10.7% increase
compared to the second quarter of 2006, resulting from the 10.8% increase in
tariffs from 1 January 2007 for the Company's residential and commercial
customers.
Included within this amount were the following increases by sector: Sales to
residential customers increased by 11.7% to 79.8 mln EEK. Sales to commercial
customers within the service area increased by 9.2% to 65.5 mln EEK. Sales to
commercial customers outside of the service area - primarily bulk volumes of
wastewater treatment services provided to the surrounding municipalities -
reached 524 000 m3 or 3.9 mln EEK. Overpollution fees received were 0.7 mln EEK
higher than in the 2nd quarter of 2006.
In the 2nd quarter of 2007 sales from the operation and maintenance of the
stormwater and firehydrant system increased by 10.4% to 9.1 mln EEK compared to
the same period in 2006. This is in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the contract whereby the stormwater and firehydrant costs are invoiced based on
actual volumes treated. This is contractually agreed up to 2015.
Sales revenues from other operating activities, at 12 mln EEK (mainly
connections and stormwater construction) remained at a similar level to the 2nd
quarter of 2006.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin
The cost of goods sold for the main operating activity was 57.1 mln EEK in the
2nd quarter of 2007, an increase of 2.7 mln EEK or 5% from the equivalent period
in 2006.
In the 2nd quarter of 2007 the Company has for the second successive quarter
recorded zero failures in all pollution measures taken, and as a result the
amount of pollution tax payable reduced by 2.2. mln EEK.
The Company continues to face increasing pressure on chemical prices
especially coagulant. However these price increases have been partially offset
by lower polymer dosages used, which resulted in a total quarterly charge of 5.3
mln EEK for chemical costs, which represents an 8.8% increase compared to the
corresponding period in 2006.
Salaries increased by 0.9 mln EEK or 7.7%. As a consequence of the highly
competitive labour market and rapidly growing salaries. In late 2006 all
salaries were reviewed and increased to ensure competitiveness in the market and
retain key personnel. However, the figure also reflects the efficiencies made
from improvements in working practices that have led to a decrease in the
headcount. In the 2nd quarter of 2007, the average number of people working for
the Company was 305 people, compared to 326 people in the 2nd quarter of 2006.
Other cost of goods sold in the main operating activity increased by 3 mln EEK,
or 37% year on year. In the 2nd quarter of 2007 the company made a provision of
1.3 mln EEK for the possible payment of servitude fees for the tolerance of
technological structure on the private land. According to the new law that came
in force in March 2007, the owners of the land can apply for the payment of a
tolerance fee, if technological structures are established on their land. In
addition, other costs increased due to a one-off increase in gas expenditures
and increased costs on a number of support services contracts, such as
transport, and security services reflecting the significant increase in labour
costs in Tallinn.
As a result of all of the above the Company's gross profit for the 2nd quarter
of 2007 was 108.8 mln EEK, which represents an increase of 13.8 mln EEK, or
14.5%, compared to the gross profit of 95.0 mln EEK for the 2nd quarter of 2007.
Operating Costs and Operating Margin
Marketing expenses increased by 1.1 mln EEK to 3.3 mln EEK during the 2nd
quarter of 2007 compared to the corresponding period in 2006. At the beginning
of the 2nd quarter, the company formed a new business unit focusing on new
business development. The related costs, including the preparation works for
launching the new Veemees trademark (Waterman), have been accounted under
marketing costs. The increase in depreciation charges accounted within marketing
expenses is due to the inclusion of the depreciation related to the completion
of the last stage of implementation of the Customer Information and Billing
system (KLIF).
General administration expenses increased by 2.8 mln EEK to 15.3 mln EEK in the
2nd quarter of 2007 as a consequence of an increase in salaries and other
general administration expenses. Approximately 0.8 mln EEK accounted for
switching from owning the computers into the lease contracts as well as
outsource the maintenance of software development - a corresponding reduction
can be found in the depreciation charge. In addition a lower proportion of
administrative salaries were capitalised due to the completion of the final
stage of the Customer Information and Billing system (KLIF).
Included within the above cost categories are staff costs. These totaled 19.1
mln EEK in the 2nd quarter of 2007, which is a 2.2 mln EEK or 12.7% increase
compared to the same period in 2006, which as mentioned earlier was due to of
the company wide revision of salaries.
Other net income/expenses totaled a cost of 0.4 mln EEK in the 2nd quarter of
2007 compared to a cost of 0.2 mln EEK in the 2nd quarter of 2006.
As a result of all of the above the Company's operating profit for the 2nd
quarter of 2007 was 89.7 mln EEK, an increase of 9.6 mln EEK compared to an
operating profit of 80.1 mln EEK achieved in the 2nd quarter of 2006.
Financial expenses
Net Financial expenses were 10.6 mln EEK in the 2nd quarter of 2007, which is a
decrease of 0.2 mln EEK or 1.8% compared to the 2nd quarter of 2006. The
Company`s interest costs have increased by 18% compared to the 2nd quarter of
2006. This is due to the fact that half of the Company`s loans are connected to
the 6 month Euribor rate, which has increased from 2.643% at the beginning of
2006 up to 4.315% at the end of the 2nd quarter of 2007. The increase in
interest expenses is offset by an increase in financial income earned during the
2nd quarter of 2007, as a result of improved cash management which led to more a
favourable cash position, and increasing interest rates.
With current rising interest rates the Company`s loans have quite favourable
terms, with 37.5 mln EUR (586.7 mln EEK) fixed at 4.19% plus risk margin (48
bps), 37.5 mln EUR (586.7 mln EEK) has a floating rate at six months Euribor
plus risk margin (24 bps), from which 20.4 mln EUR (319.2 mln EEK) is hedged
with a collar interest rate swap, where the Company pays 4% if the six months
Euribor rate is between 4-5%.
Profit Before Tax
The Company's profit before taxes for the 2nd quarter of 2007 was 79.2 mln EEK,
which is 9.8 mln EEK higher than the profit before taxes of 69.3 mln EEK for the
2nd quarter of 2006.
Results for the first six months of 2007
During the first six months of 2007 the Company's total sales increased, year on
year, by 13.4% to 381.8 mln EEK. Sales from the Company's main operating
activities were 325.5 mln EEK. Sales of water and wastewater treatment were
303.2 mln EEK, a 10.7% increase compared to the first half of 2006.
The Company's profit before taxes for the first six months of 2007 was 174.5 mln
EEK, which is 10.1 mln EEK higher than the profit before taxes of 164.4 mln EEK
in the relevant period in 2006. The results fo the first half of 2007 were
impacted by the fact that the Ministry of Environment gave final approval to the
success of the nitrogen project, which resulted in the release of a provision
worth 13.3 mln EEK for environmental taxes. The results for the first half of
2006 were impacted by the sale of excess land in Paljassaare worth 24.1 mln EEK.
When eliminating these one-offs, the underlying profit before tax has increased
by 21 mln EEK to 161 mln EEK i.e. 15% year-on-year.
Balance sheet
During the six months of 2007 the Company invested 88.3 mln EEK into fixed
assets. Tangible, intangible and unfinished assets were 2,134.2 mln EEK at 30
June 2007. Current assets decreased by 36.3 mln EEK in the first six months of
the year, which was largely attributable to a decrease in cash reflecting the
dividend payout.
Current liabilities increased by 36.1 mln EEK to 189.2 mln EEK in the first six
months of the year. This was mainly due to increased investment payables.
The company continues to maintain its leverage level within its target range of
50-60% with total liabilities to total capital employed of 56% as at 30 June
2007. Long-term liabilities stood at 1,166.6 mln EEK at the end of June 2007,
consisting almost entirely of the outstanding balance on the two long-term bank
loans.
Cash flow
During the first six months of 2007, the Company generated 173.2 mln EEK of cash
flows from operating activities, an increase of 10.1 mln EEK compared to the
corresponding period in 2006. Operating profit continues to be main driver for
growth.
In the 2nd quarter of 2007 net cash outflows from investing activities were 25.7
mln EEK, which is 19.7 mln EEK more than in 2006. This was mainly due to
increased investment levels. In first six months of the year, the company
invested 88.3 mln EEK - 49.7 mln EEK networks extension and rehabilitation, 27.4
mln EEK Paljassaare wastewater treatment plant and wastewater treatment, 6 mln
EEK water quality (Ülemiste water treatment plant and raw water) and 5.2 mln EEK
other investments (IT, capital maintenance, meters, etc).
Cash outflows from financing activities were 196.5 mln EEK during the first six
months of the year compared to cash outflow of 157.7 mln EEK during the first
six months of 2006, reflecting increased dividend payments.
As a result of all of the above factors, the total cash outflow in the six
months of 2007 was 48.9 mln EEK compared to a cash outflow of 0.1 mln EEK in the
first six months of 2006. Cash and cash equivalents stood at 200.5 mln EEK as at
31 June 2007.
Employees
In the second quarter of 2007 the average number of employees was 305 people.
Dividends and share performance
Based on the results of the 2006 financial year, the Annual General Meeting of
shareholders of AS Tallinna Vesi voted to pay 196,010,000 EEK of dividends. Of
this 10 000 EEK was paid to the owner of the B-share and 196 000 000 EEK, i.e.
9.8 EEK per share to the owners of the A-shares. Dividends were paid on 15 June
2007.
As of 30 June 2007 AS Tallinna Vesi shareholders, with a holding over 5%, were:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| United Utilities (Tallinn) BV | 35.3% |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| City of Tallinn | 34.7% |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Morgan Stanley + Co International Equity client | 7.55% |
| account | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the end of the reporting period, 30 June 2007, the closing price of the AS
Tallinna Vesi share was 207.32 EEK (13.25 EUR), which is a 12% decrease since
the beginning of the year. This was partially due to fact that the company paid
out dividends on June 15th as well as on June 29th over 100 000 shares were
block traded at 8% below the market price. On the following trading day July
2nd, the share price increased by 5.66% to 219.10 EEK (14.00 EUR)
Operational achievements in 2007
The work on the new Paljassaare sludge processing building continues and will be
completed in the 3rd quarter of 2007. The project will allow for the more
effective and efficient operation and maintenance of this equipment and realise
further benefits in the operation of the wastewater and sludge treatment
processes. The sludge composting fields are to be completed in July 2007. These
projects enable the Company to continue with its environmentally friendly and
cost effective policy of disposing zero sludge to landfill. The total cost of
the project is over 40 mln EEK.
In the 2nd quarter, as in 1st quarter, all outfall effluent samples at all
locations complied with requirements and as a consequence the environmental
charges for the quarter attracted a 50% reduction.
In the 2nd quarter, the company's ISO and EMAS procedures were audited by DNV
and the continued accreditation is confirmed. At the same time the company
applied for OHSAS accreditation, the outcome of this audit was positive and
OHSAS accreditation is expected to be awarded in the 3rd quarter of 2007.
The Company launched to the market a new trademark Veemees, under which
maintenance, emergency and construction services related to water supply and
sewerage services will be offered to owners of private houses, housing
associations, apartment owners, real estate developers and construction
companies.
