Summary


In the third quarter of 2015, net sales increased by 14.7% totaling Ch$170,206 million, in comparison to the Ch$148,412 totaled in 2014. The increase in sales is explained by higher sales in the 'Wine' Operating Segment as well as the 'Others' Operating Segment. Both segments contributed 15.8% and 3.2% in value respectively.


The 'Wine' Operating Segment registered growths in most relevant markets. The increase of 15.8% in value in the third quarter was driven by higher sales in Exports Markets of 16.0% in value boosted by an increase of 9.7% in volume; higher sales in Chilean Domestic Markets of 6.4% and 2.9% in value and volume; higher sales in the us operation of 21.3% and 5.9% in value and volume respectively and a positive impact derived from exchange rate fluctuations.


Fetzer's total wine sales to third parties (excluding shipments to distribution subsidiaries) in Chilean pesos increased 21.3% during the third quarter of 2015, driven by higher commercialized volumes in both, domestic (4.7%) and export markets (20.1%). The average sales price in the domestic market, in U.S. dollars, registered an increase of 1.3% in comparison to 3Q14.


In the quarter, Argentinean total wine sales to third parties (excluding shipments to distribution subsidiaries) increased 28.3% in value and registered flat volumes. The rise in sales was mainly driven by higher average sales price in US dollar and a positive impact derived from exchange rate fluctuations.


In the quarter, the operating income plus depreciation and amortization totaled Ch$27,686 million, representing an increase of 28.9% in comparison to the same period of 2014. The result is explained by higher commercialized volumes; premiumization in the mix of sales and a positive effect from currency fluctuations.

  1. Consolidated Sales in 'Wine' Operating Segment


    Consolidated Sales that come from the 'Wine' Operating Segment increased 15.8% in the third quarter of 2015 explained by higher commercialized volumes, a premiumization of sales and a mid-single digit of positive effect derived from exchange rate fluctuations.


    1. Export Sales


      Export sales from Chile and distribution subsidiaries increased 16.0% to Ch$113,729 million as compared to Ch$98,071 million in 3Q2014. The increase in sales was driven by higher commercialized volumes (9.7%) during the quarter. In addition, Export Sales were beneficiated by a positive effect that came from the exchange rate due to the depreciation of the Chilean peso against U.S. dollar (17.3%) and Sterling pound (8.9%) that was partially offset by the appreciation of Chilean peso against the Brazilian Real (24.5%), Euro (1.4%), Norwegian (10.9%) and Swedish (3.9%) kroners, Mexican peso (6.4%) and Canadian dollar (2.4%).
