PARIS, May 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

• Total revenues increased 3% to € 568 million 

•    Resort revenues increased 2% reflecting higher guest spending partially offset by anticipated moderate decrease in volumes

• EBITDA at € 3.1 million, up € 1.4 million

•    Net loss narrowed by 10% reflecting the positive impact of the 2012 refinancing and an improved operating margin

Euro Disney S.C.A. (the "Company"), parent company of Euro Disney Associés S.C.A. ("EDA"), operator of Disneyland® Paris, reported today the results of its consolidated group (the "Group") for the first six months of fiscal year 2013 which ended March 31, 2013 (the "First Half").

    Average spending per room (in EUR)    207.84      207.29        231.33

Commenting on the results, Philippe Gas, Chief Executive Officer of Euro Disney S.A.S, said:

"Delivering 3% revenue growth during our first semester is encouraging given the current economic environment and clearly demonstrates the resiliency of Disneyland Paris. Three years ago, we made the decision to increase our investments in the guest experience and the Resort in general and therefore focus on guest spending growth. Our results for the first semester are in line with this strategic choice with a 4% increase in guest spending and a slight decrease in visitation.

"We are seeing the first concrete benefits of the debt refinancing transaction, with substantial interest charge savings for the first semester. With the refinancing, we also benefit from greater flexibility to continue to invest in order to further strengthen the appeal of Disneyland Paris.

"In the second half of the year, we will continue to build on both the success of the 20th Anniversary celebration, which was extended for another 6 months, and the strong commitment of our Cast Members to keep delivering on our brand promise. At the same time, we remain cautious for the rest of the year in light of the continued challenging economy."

Seasonality

The Group's business is subject to the effects of seasonality and the annual results are significantly dependent on the second half of the fiscal year, or April 1 to September 30, which traditionally includes the high season at Disneyland® Paris. Consequently, the operating results for the First Half are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.  

Revenues by Operating Segment  

                                                 First Half        Variance
    (EUR in millions, unaudited)                2013     2012  Amount          %
    Theme parks                                311.4    304.8     6.6       2.2%
    Hotels and Disney Village(R)               228.2    224.5     3.7       1.6%
    Other                                       21.5     21.8   (0.3)     (1.4)%
    Resort operating segment                   561.1    551.1    10.0       1.8%
    Real estate development operating segment    6.6      1.3     5.3        n/m
    Total revenues                             567.7    552.4    15.3       2.8%

n/m: not meaningful

Resort operating segment revenues increased 2% to € 561.1 million from € 551.1 million in the prior-year period.

Theme parks revenues increased 2% to € 311.4 million from € 304.8 million in the prior-year period, due to a 4% increase in average spending per guest to € 45.97, partly offset by a 2% decrease in attendance to 6.7 million. The increase in average spending per guest was due to higher spending on admissions, food and beverage and merchandise. The decrease in attendance was due to fewer guests visiting from France, Spain and Belgium.

Hotels and Disney Village® revenues increased 2% to € 228.2 million from € 224.5 million in the prior-year period, reflecting a 17% increase in Disney Village revenues, partly offset by a 1.8 percentage point decrease in hotel occupancy to 78%. The increase in Disney Village revenues mainly reflected the opening of a new boutique, World of Disney, in July 2012.  The decrease in hotel occupancy resulted from 24,000 fewer room nights sold compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to fewer guests visiting from Spain, as well as lower business group activity, partly offset by more guests visiting from the United Kingdom.

Other revenues, which primarily include participant sponsorships, transportation and other travel services sold to guests, decreased 1% to € 21.5 million from € 21.8 million in the prior-year period.  

Real estate development operating segment revenues increased by € 5.3 million to € 6.6 million, from € 1.3 million in the prior-year period. This increase was due to one land sale closed during the First Half while no land sale closed in the prior-year period.

Costs and Expenses  

                                    First Half        Variance
    (EUR in millions, unaudited)   2013     2012  Amount          %
    Direct operating costs (1)    527.4    513.4    14.0       2.7%
    Marketing and sales expenses   68.0     69.5   (1.5)     (2.2)%
    General and administrative
    expenses                       54.8     54.2     0.6       1.1%
    Costs and expenses            650.2    637.1    13.1       2.1%

Direct operating costs primarily include wages and benefits for employees in operational roles, depreciation and amortization related to operations, cost of sales, royalties and management fees. For the First Half and the corresponding prior-year period, royalties and management fees were € 32.7 million and € 31.6 million, respectively.

Direct operating costs increased 3% compared to the prior-year period due to expenses related to new guest offerings, labor rate inflation and increased costs associated with higher real estate development activity.

Marketing and sales expenses decreased 2% compared to the prior-year period due to lower sales activities and media initiatives.

Net Financial Charges  

                                      First Half               Variance
    (EUR in millions, unaudited)     2013         2012     Amount            %
    Financial income                  0.5          2.9      (2.4)      (82.8)%
    Financial expense              (26.3)       (38.9)       12.6      (32.4)%
    Net financial charges          (25.8)       (36.0)       10.2      (28.3)%

Financial income decreased by € 2.4 million compared to the prior-year period due to a lower average level of cash and cash equivalents and lower short-term interest rates.  

Financial expense decreased by € 12.6 million due to a lower average interest rate on debt following the 2012 refinancing.  

Net Loss

For the First Half, the net loss of the Group amounted to € 108.4 million compared to € 120.9 million for the prior-year period.

Cash flows

Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2013 were € 68.7 million, down € 45.6 million compared with September 30, 2012, and down € 161.7 million compared with March 31, 2012. These variances resulted from:

                                                                First Half      Variance
    (EUR in millions, unaudited)                               2013       2012
    Cash flow (used in) / generated by operating activities  (19.8)       12.3    (32.1)
    Cash flow used in investing activities                   (52.2)     (83.8)      31.6
    Free cash flow used                                      (72.0)     (71.5)     (0.5)
    Cash flow generated by / (used in) financing activities    26.4     (64.2)      90.6
    Change in cash and cash equivalents                      (45.6)    (135.7)      90.1

    Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period            114.3      366.1   (251.8)
    Cash and cash equivalents, end of period                   68.7      230.4   (161.7)

Free cash flow used for the First Half was € 72.0 million compared to € 71.5 million used in the prior-year period.

Cash flow used in operating activities for the First Half totaled € 19.8 million compared to € 12.3 million generated in the prior-year period. This decrease resulted from higher working capital requirements. Changes in working capital during the prior-year period benefited from the deferral into long-term debt of € 33.9 million of royalties and management fees, as permitted by the 2005 restructuring debt agreements. No such benefit occurred in the First Half following the removal of this deferral mechanism after the 2012 refinancing.  

Cash flow used in investing activities for the First Half totaled € 52.2 million compared to € 83.8 million used in the prior-year period. This decrease was driven by the level of investments made in the prior-year period in the World of Disney boutique, which opened in July 2012, as well as the timing of capital expenditures related to a new attraction based on the Disney.Pixar movie Ratatouille, scheduled to open in the Walt Disney Studios® Park in 2014.

Cash flow generated by financing activities totaled € 26.4 million for the First Half compared to € 64.2 million used in the prior-year period. During the First Half, the Group drew an amount of € 30.0 million from the € 250.0 million standby revolving credit facility granted by The Walt Disney Company ("TWDC")[2]. In the prior-year period, the Group repaid € 64.3 million of its bank borrowings, consistent with the scheduled maturities before the 2012 refinancing.

In accordance with the scheduled maturities agreed as part of the 2012 refinancing, the Group is only required to repay € 1.4 million of its borrowings with TWDC in the last six months of fiscal year 2013.

DEFINITIONS

EBITDA corresponds to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance defined under IFRS, and should not be viewed as a substitute for operating margin, net profit / (loss) or operating cash flows in evaluating the Group's financial results. However, management believes that EBITDA is a useful tool for evaluating the Group's performance.

Free cash flow is cash generated by operating activities less cash used in investing activities. Free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance defined under IFRS, and should not be viewed as a substitute for operating margin, net profit / (loss) or operating cash flows in evaluating the Group's financial results. However, management believes that Free cash flow is a useful tool for evaluating the Group's performance.

Theme parks attendance corresponds to the attendance recorded on a "first click" basis, meaning that a person visiting both parks in a single day is counted as only one visitor.

Average spending per guest is the average daily admission price and spending on food, beverage and merchandise and other services sold in the theme parks, excluding value added tax.

Hotel occupancy rate is the average daily rooms occupied as a percentage of total room inventory (total room inventory is approximately 5,800 rooms).
