TIDMMCOZ RNS Number : 6365D Cosentino Signature Wines plc 04 December 2009 4th December 2009 COSENTINO SIGNATURE WINES PLC FINAL RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008 Chairman's Statement Introduction 2008 was a very challenging year for the entire wine industry. Our Company had been operating at record profits and revenue through September 2008 when the economic downturn hit in the USA. The wine industry was hit particularly hard, especially the luxury and ultrapremium wine sectors. Demand quickly shifted to wines in the $10 to $15 price range, sales to distributors dropped dramatically as distributors struggled to get their inventories down to less than 30 days on the floor from their historic highs of seven and eight months, and wine club sales began decreasing as consumer credit tightened. Management and the board of directors reacted quickly. After concluding that the wine industry would remain hard hit throughout 2009 and perhaps would only barely begin to recover in 2010, the Company moved to drastically reduce its cost base and increase efficiencies. This included the abandonment of the Company's non essential properties and equipment that were the subject of its 2007 sale and leaseback agreement. The Company is now operating only in its Yountville facility in the Napa Valley, California and through new affordable leased facilities in Woodbridge, California at substantial cost savings. Financials Turnover for the period was US$10.2 million (2007: US$11.0 million). Loss per share was US$(0.92) relative to income per share of US$0.01 in 2007. Loss before tax but including discontinued operations was US$(14.2) million relative to income before tax, but including income from discontinued operations of US$0.3 million in 2007. The Directors are not recommending a dividend for the full year. Operations In the fourth quarter of 2008, after experiencing record trading through September 2008, the global credit crunch took hold and wholesale and retail sales for the Company were well below average. To counter the sharp drop in revenue for the foreseeable future, the Company embarked on a significant cost cutting plan. As a major component of the plan, the Company decided to discontinue the operations and abandon three of its production facilities. These operations included the facilities, vineyards and equipment at the Pope Valley, Clements and Lockeford properties that were the subject of the 2007 sale and leaseback transaction. In discontinuing the operations, the leased facilities and equipment were formally returned to the lessor in February 2009. Two of the Company's brands were discontinued and all operations in these facilities, other than the winding down, ceased in 2008. The decision to abandon the brands and facilities was made because the facilities were operating at significantly less than 50% of capacity and because due to the general economic decline, management and the board of directors became convinced that the wine industry would not recover quickly enough in the near term future in order to allow the necessary increased production levels to operate these facilities profitably. As a result, management concluded that the Company could no longer afford to produce these brands and operate these facilities. Management estimates that the abandonment of these properties along with the additional company-wide cost cutting measures that management put in place at the end of 2008, will save the Company approximately $4 million annually in operating costs. Management strongly believes that all near term Company efforts should be directed to its core brand, Cosentino Winery, and its related operating facilities in Napa Valley, and newly leased production and storage facilities in Woodbridge California. Management Our management team is fully in place and all top executive positions are reporting directly to me. Although 2008 has been a very disappointing year, I want to thank our small and tireless management team and the loyal and hard working employees of the Group. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our colleagues for their hard work during this difficult year. As we deal with the challenges facing our Company and industry in 2009, I am proud to have our strong team with me every step of the way. Current status of our Senior and Subordinated Notes and the Sale and Leaseback Agreement The Company is currently in default on its senior and subordinated notes payable as well as the 2007 sale and leaseback agreement covering the returned abandoned properties and equipment. We are currently operating under forbearance agreements with our senior and subordinated lenders and our relationships with our lenders are good. We are in negotiations with several potential lenders to refinance our existing debt and to provide additional working capital to the Company. We are also mediating the dispute over our sale and leaseback arrangement. Summation Operations for the Company are now stable and we have begun to recover lost ground along with the rest of the wine industry. As a result of our quick and drastic cost cutting measures which were instituted in the fourth quarter of the year, the Company has been able to reduce its operating costs by nearly $4 million dollars annually. Those annual cost savings have more than compensated for the lost revenue and lower pricing that the Company and the industry are now enduring. The Board of Directors and I have been working diligently to obtain new financing for the Company in this very difficult lending environment. We look forward to be in a position to make favorable announcements in the future. ........................
