KERING 2014 First-Half Results
Sound operating performance in the first-half
Revenue up 4% and improved recurring operating margin on a comparable basis
Solid sales growth for the Luxury activities: up 6% on a comparable basis
Positive trends in Sport & Lifestyle
Negative foreign currency impact
Excellent level of free cash flow from operations
François-Henri Pinault, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Kering delivered a sound performance in the first half of 2014, with revenue up 4% and improved recurring operating margin on a comparable basis. The Luxury activities reported further sales growth, driven by a solid performance from directly operated stores, and their recurring operating income rose in the period. At the same time, the Sport & Lifestyle activities posted higher comparable sales - an encouraging trend as Puma's ambitious relaunch is proceeding according to plan. Our overall performance during the period confirms the strength, appeal and strategic coherence of our brands. In an unsettled operating environment, we are pursuing the implementation of our strategy, all the while keeping tight control over costs and safeguarding our gross margins. This enables us to anticipate an improvement in our operating performance in the second half of the year."

Operating performance
In a weaker economic climate, Kering's revenue from continuing operations for the first half of 2014 amounted to €4,747 million, up 1.5% on first-half 2013 as reported and 4% based on a comparable Group structure and exchange rates. The Group recorded revenue growth of 4.1% on a comparable basis in the first quarter of 2014 and 4% in the second quarter (1.2% and 1.8% respectively on a reported basis).
Exchange rate fluctuations had a negative €196 million effect on revenue during the period.
The Luxury activities posted year-on-year revenue growth of 5.7% based on comparable data, reflecting solid performances by directly operated stores across all geographic areas. Revenue generated by the Sport & Lifestyle activities edged up 0.4% on a comparable basis in a persistently mixed operating environment and with ongoing difficult market conditions for Footwear in Western Europe.
The Group's balance in terms of geographic presence and sales formats makes it more resilient to changes in the economic environment despite the volatility in the global economy over the last several quarters. Revenue generated outside the Eurozone climbed 4.9% in the first half of 2014 (based on comparable data) and accounted for 78% of the Group total, versus 79% in 2013 (on a reported basis). Growth in mature markets was sustained at 3.1% (based on comparable data), driven by Japan and North America. Emerging markets were up 5.6% on a comparable basis, and accounted for 38.1% of sales, including 26.2% generated in the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan).
In first-half 2014, Kering's recurring operating income amounted to €810 million, down 3.9% on the first half of 2013, but up 6.2% at comparable exchange rates. Recurring operating margin came in at 17.1% (versus 18.0% for the first six months of 2013 and 17.0% at comparable exchange rates).
At €967 million, EBITDA was 1.7% lower than in first-half 2013 on a reported basis, but some 8% higher than in the first half of 2013 on a comparable exchange rate basis. The EBITDA margin stood at 20.4% in first-half 2014, down 0.6 points on a reported basis from the first half of 2013, but up 0.4 points at comparable exchange rates.
Financial performance
Net finance costs totaled €105 million in the first half of 2014 and the cost of net debt decreased to just under €87 million.
Net income, Group share came to €185 million for the first six months of 2014, up 7% on the first-half 2013 figure of €173 million. The Group reported a €348 million net loss under discontinued operations during the period, of which €300 million related to Redcats.
Net income, Group share from continuing operations came in at just under €533 million versus nearly €559 million in first-half 2013. Adjusted for non-recurring items net of tax, net income, Group share from continuing operations totalled €555 million compared with €582 million in first-half 2013.
Earnings per share amounted to €1.47 in the first six months of 2014 (€1.37 in first-half 2013). Earnings per share from continuing operations stood at €4.23 (€4.44 in first-half 2013). Excluding non-recurring items, earnings per share from continuing operations totaled €4.41, versus €4.63 in the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Highlights of first-half 2014
Kering reorganises its Luxury activities to accelerate the growth of its brands
In order to foster the continuing expansion of its Luxury business resulting from both its organic growth and the acquisitions carried out in recent years, in April 2014, Kering announced the creation of two new divisions - "Luxury - Couture & Leather Goods" and "Luxury - Watches & Jewelry" - both reporting to François-Henri Pinault, the Group's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Marco Bizzarri has been appointed as CEO of "Luxury - Couture & Leather Goods" and Albert Bensoussan as CEO of "Luxury - Watches & Jewellery". Gucci, whose Chairman and CEO is Patrizio di Marco, remains under the direct supervision of François-Henri Pinault.
Sale of La Redoute
On June 3, 2014, Kering announced that it had closed the sale of La Redoute and Relais Colis to Nathalie Balla, Chairman and CEO of La Redoute, and Eric Courteille, Chief Administrative Officer of Redcats.
Other highlights
In the first six months of 2014, Kering redeemed the remaining €550.1 million of the bond that was issued in 2009 and matured in April 2014. This bond was originally issued in two tranches representing an aggregate €800 million, of which €249.9 million was redeemed in 2011. Also during the period, the Group redeemed the €150 million bond issued in June 2009.
Subsequent event
On July 30, 2014, Kering and Ulysse Nardin announced that they had signed an agreement under which Kering will acquire the haute horlogerie brand's entire share capital. The brand will become part of Kering's "Luxury - Watches & Jewelry" division, which is headed by Albert Bensoussan. The transaction is subject to the approval of the competition authorities and is expected to be finalised during the second half of 2014.
Outlook
Kering will continue to implement its action plans aimed at stepping up the organic growth and operating cash flow generation of each of the brands of its Luxury activities. The results of these plans already began to feed through in the first six months of 2014 despite the difficult market context, and for Gucci in particular, they should lead to a return to positive revenue trends in the second half of the year.
Going forward, Kering will pursue its strategy of rigorously managing and allocating its resources which should enable the Group to improve its operating performance in the second half of 2014 in spite of the still unsettled business environment.
At its meeting on July 30, 2014, the Board of Directors, under the chairmanship of François-Henri Pinault, approved the condensed consolidated financial statements for the first half of 2014 that were subject to a limited review.
This press release is a free translation of the French original press release available on our website: www.kering.com.
Main definitions
IFRS 5 - Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
In accordance with IFRS 5 - Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, the Group has presented certain activities as "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations". The net income or loss from these activities is shown on a separate line of the income statement, "Net income (loss) from discontinued operations", and is restated in the statement of cash flows and income statement for all reported periods.
Assets and liabilities relating to assets held for sale are presented on separate lines in the Group's statement of financial position, without restatement for previous periods. Assets and liabilities relating to discontinued operations are not presented on separate lines in the Group's statement of financial position.
As stated in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, Groupe Fnac and the Redcats group are classified as "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations".
Definition of "reported" and "comparable" revenue
The Group's "reported" revenue corresponds to published revenue. The Group also uses "comparable" data to measure organic growth. "Comparable" revenue is 2013 revenue restated for the impact of changes in Group structure in 2013 or 2014, and for translation differences relating to foreign subsidiaries' revenue in 2013.
Definition of recurring operating income
The Group's total operating income includes all revenues and expenses directly related to Group activities, whether these revenues and expenses are recurring or arise from non-recurring decisions or transactions.
"Other non-recurring operating income and expenses" consists of unusual items, notably as concerns the nature or frequency, that could distort the assessment of Group entities' economic performance, as defined by French national accounting board (Conseil national de la comptabilité - CNC) recommendation No. 2009-R-03.
Consequently, Kering monitors its operating performance using "Recurring operating income", defined as the difference between total operating income and other non-recurring operating income and expenses (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements).
Recurring operating income is an intermediate line item intended to facilitate the understanding of the Group's operating performance and which can be used as a way to estimate recurring performance. This indicator is presented in a manner that is consistent and stable over the long-term in order to ensure the continuity and relevance of financial information.
Recurring operating income at comparable exchange rates for 2013 takes into account the currency impact on revenue and operational expenses, the effective portion of currency hedges and the impact of changes in exchange rates on the translation of the recurring operating income of consolidated entities located outside the eurozone.
Definition of EBITDA
The Group uses EBITDA to monitor its operating performance. This financial indicator corresponds to recurring operating income plus net charges to depreciation, amortisation and provisions on non-current operating assets recognised in recurring operating income.
EBITDA at comparable exchange rates is defined using the same principles as for recurring operating income at comparable exchange rates.
Definition of free cash flow from operations and available cash flow
The Group also uses an intermediate line item, "Free cash flow from operations", to monitor its financial performance. This financial indicator measures net operating cash flow less net operating investments (defined as purchases and sales of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets).
"Available cash flow" corresponds to free cash flow from operations plus interest and dividends received less interest paid and equivalent.
Definition of net debt
As defined by CNC recommendation No. 2009-R-03 of July 2, 2009, net debt comprises gross borrowings, including accrued interest, less net cash.
Net debt includes fair value hedging instruments recorded in the statement of financial position relating to bank borrowings and bonds whose interest rate risk is fully or partly hedged as part of a fair value relationship (see Note 18 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements).
The financing of customer loans by fully-consolidated consumer credit businesses is presented in borrowings. Group net debt excludes the financing of customer loans by consumer credit businesses.
