Baltika Quarterly report 28.02.2013

Baltika's unaudited financial results, Q4 and 12 months 2012

Baltika ended the fourth quarter with 1,294 thousand euros profit before tax
and the net profit was 1,075 thousand euros. The year 2012 profit before tax
was 1,056 thousand euros and net profit 805 thousand euros. Baltika exceeded
the financial targets set for the year 2012, finishing the year with 3,725
thousand euros EBITDA, which is 24% higher than planned 3,000 thousand euros.

Performance exceeded the target owing to strong growth in sales efficiency (14%
against the projected 10%) and a marked improvement in the gross margin. Gross
margin in 2012 was 54.5%, increasing year over year 1.4 percentage points.
Solid sales results and the rise in the gross margin were underpinned by sales
growth in the Baltic countries and Russia. The best results were achieved in
Latvia and Russia where sales per square metre grew by 21% and 15%
respectively. Another contributing factor continued to be effective cost
control: the ratio of operating expenses to revenue improved by 5 percentage
points, 1 percentage point more than targeted.

The year 2012 was pivotal in both returning to profit and strengthening the
financial position. By divesting real estate, considerably reducing the loan
burden and improving its investment capabilities, Baltika has created a solid
basis and opened up new opportunities for future development.

2012 fourth quarter highlights

-- On 29 November 2012, Baltika signed an agreement for the purchase of the
Bastion trademark and the acquisition of retail stores operated under the
Bastion trade name. Six Bastion stores in Estonia were taken over from OÜ
Bastion by Baltika’s subsidiary OÜ Baltman and one Bastion store in Latvia
was taken over by Baltika’s subsidiary SIA Baltika Latvija. All seven
stores have been successfully integrated into Baltika’s retail system and
the figures for 2012 include the first Bastion sales within Baltika Group.
By adding Bastion to its brand portfolio the Group can expand its target
customer base, offer a wider product range and increase its market share in
the Baltics. Baltika believes that Bastion has strong retail and wholesale
potential in the Group’s home market, the Baltics, as well as in
Scandinavia and Eastern Europe.
-- On 28 December 2012, Baltika launched a revamped Monton concept flagship
store in the Piterland shopping centre in St Petersburg. Following this, in
February a revamped Monton concept flagship store was opened in Tallinn and
in Riga and in March a Monton concept flagship store will be opened in
Vilnius.
-- As agreed in 2012, on 28 January 2013 Pille Põldsam joined Baltman OÜ
Management Board. Pille Põldsam has gained experience at AS Stockmann group
– last position as the area manager of both Seppälä’s Estonian region and
Baltic and Ukrainian region. In Baltika Group, she will deal with the
Estonian market, being responsible for setting and meeting the retail sales
targets, organising the work of retail operations and managing the sales
and service teams.

Objectives for 2013

Baltika’s goals for 2013 are business expansion and profitable growth. To
achieve this, the Group will continue to implement its investment plan in 2013.
In line with its unveiled investment plan, in the next few years the Group
intends to open 25 new stores and to invest 5,000 euros in the retail system of
which around 3,000 euros will be invested in 2013. Renovation of almost 20
stores and the launch of around ten new stores, primarily in Latvia, Russia and
Ukraine will be made in 2013. According to the investment plan, the Group will
also continue to launch new-concept Monton stores and in the second half of
2013 will open the first new-concept Mosaic stores.

Priorities of 2013 include developing international competitiveness of all
Group brands. The Group will also continue to develop its additional sales
channels and grow their sales: in 2013 special attention will be paid to
increasing wholesale, franchise and e-store sales. In addition, to tap its
extensive experience and strong retail competencies, the Group is considering
the possibility of entering into franchising agreements for the sale of new
brands in its current markets.

Management’s targets for 2013 are to increase total sales over 10% and to at
least double the Group’s net profit. The targets are in line with the budget
approved by the company’s Supervisory Council on 13 February 2013.
