OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
-- Game-changing HBO Collaboration: The Eros-HBO collaboration is one of the most significant deals the Company has entered into. The collaboration was announced in December 2012, and two unique premium advertising free channels showcasing Hollywood and Bollywood content were launched in India, namely HBO Defined and HBO Hits, in March 2013 on the Dish and Airtel DTH platforms. It is anticipated that the channels will be live on other DTH and digital cable platforms in India during the course of the next few months. The early response from subscribers signals a positive outlook for the year ahead.
-- Diversified Portfolio of Releases: Major film releases in the period included; Housefull 2, Cocktail, Son of Sardaar, Khiladi 786,Teri Meri Kahanni, Vicky Donor and English Vinglish among the successful Hindi releases out of the total 30 Hindi films. Thuppakki, Maatraan and Kadal were the 3 notable Tamil releases in the year. The Company released a total of 77 films in the year in line with the prior financial year ended March 31, 2012. The hugely anticipated Kochadiayan (starring Rajnikanth) as well as Go Goa Gone (starring the Saif Ali Khan ) were postponed to the financial year ended March 31, 2014.
-- Consistent Box Office Track Record: The notable new trend within the growing box office in India was the higher than anticipated success of smaller budget films along with continued growth in high profile films with 9 films crossing the INR 100 crore box office gross collection mark in calendar year 2012 as compared to just 5 films in the previous year. Consistent with the Company's track record of picking winners in its portfolio, the Company had 2 out of the Top 10 Box Office films for calendar year 2012, namely Housefull 2 and Son of Sardaar. In addition, Vicky Donor as well as English Vinglish (which were lower budget high concept films), were not only critically acclaimed and won several awards but were also highly successful at the box office within India as well as internationally.
-- Strong Television Presales: A major television syndication deal was announced during the year with Viacom 18, which included a mixture of library, current and forthcoming titles. Further television licensing deals were secured with Zee TV and Star TV during the period. Pre-sales significantly underpinned television revenues for the year, again consistent with the Company's strategy to operate a de-risked business model.
-- New International Markets: Internationally, we continued to make distribution deals in new markets such as Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, Romania, Malaysia, Mynmar, Nigeria and other countries. We released the 2007 hit film Om Shanti Om for the first time theatrically in Japan and English Vinglish in South Korea.
-- Digital distribution leadership: ErosNow, our on-demand entertainment portal accessible via internet-enabled devices, went live in August 2012 with a commercial launch of www.erosnow.com. The ErosNow channel on YouTube continued to generate strong traffic and advertising revenues. ErosNow was the top ranked Indian channel on YouTube by Video Views crossing over 1.1 billion video views for over 8,500 uploaded videos. Music monetisation continued to be strong with a combination of licensing and self-distribution deals.
GROUP CEO & MANAGING DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT
I am pleased to report that Eros has seen a 10.2% increase in revenues (increase in constant currency) and a 3.7% increase in underlying EBITDA against a background of a 13.1% devaluation of the Indian Rupee when comparing the financial years ending 31 March 2012 and 2013. We are delighted not only with the success of our high profile films this year such as Housefull 2, Cocktail, Son of Sardaar and Khiladi 786, but also the critical as well as commercial success achieved by our lower budget movies such as Vicky Donor and English Vinglish.
The Indian box office continues to grow as more multiplex screens continue to be built every year and average ticket prices continue to rise with an increasing number of films (9 films in the calendar year ended December 31, 2012 versus 5 films in the prior calendar year) generating a net box office collection in excess of Rs 100 crores (approximately US $ 18.4 million) than the previous year. Compulsory cable digitisation, supported by the government of India, continues to fuel the demand for premium television content. Our collaboration with HBO to launch two advertising-free premium channels in India is a major strategic step forward for the Company into the high growth television broadcasting industry, which is the largest segment in the Indian media and entertainment sector. Against the backdrop of the 141 million cable and satellite homes in India in 2013, a rapidly growing viewing base (Source:KPMG-FICCI 2013), we are excited about the potential of the Eros-HBO collaboration and our ability to forge new distribution channels in order to further monetise our new film slate and unlock the value in our content library.
Digital new media and online consumption of content continue to show encouraging trends, be it on ErosNow on YouTube or our ErosNow movie and music subscription service. Licensing deals around the world across television, video or digital new media distribution formats continue to be prolific and we are proud to be pioneering the distribution of Indian films to new markets. South Korea and Japan have shown encouraging trends with the first few releases in those countries while we continue to make encouraging progress in Latin America and China.
We have an exciting slate to look forward to in the year ending March 31, 2014 with a mix of high profile and medium and small budget films. One of our major releases Kochadaiyaan (Tamil) starring Rajnikanth did not release as planned in the year ended March 31, 2013 and will be released to take advantage of a holiday weekend in this calendar year. With the success of the Tamil releases such as Maatraan and Thuppaki in the year ended March 31, 2013, the Company has made a conscious strategic move to scale up its Tamil global releases and has a strong line-up of Tamil films this year. This is consistent with the Company's strategy to maintain a portfolio approach and demonstrates its ability to scale the business.
With respect to the Company's public filing dated May 2, 2012 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with its proposed listing on the NYSE, the Board continues to believe that the listing will give the Company a definite strategic advantage while giving access to additional equity capital and liquidity as well as trading with a more comparable peer group with broader analyst coverage. The Company remains actively engaged in the listing process with its advisory group and hopes to conclude the US listing process later this year, subject to regulatory and other permissions and compliances.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
This financial review is primarily based upon the comparison of our results for the year ended March 31, 2013 with those of the year ended March 31, 2012. Unless otherwise stated percentage growth relates to the percentage comparison between these two years.
Overview
The primary geographic areas from which we derive revenue are India, Europe and North America, with the remainder of our revenue generated from an area that we report as the rest of world. Outside of India, we distribute films to South Asian expatriate populations and in countries where we release Indian films that are subtitled or dubbed in local languages. Although we expect the portion of our revenue attributable to India to continue to grow, we will continue to opportunistically pursue new global distribution opportunities.
Our one operating segment, film content, derives revenue from three channels: theatrical, television syndication and digital and ancillary sources. The contribution from these three distribution channels can fluctuate year over year based on, among other things, our mix of films and budget levels, the size of our television syndication deals and our ability to license music in any particular year.
Underlying Results* Reported Results 2013 2012 Change 2013 2012 Change (in thousands, except percentage amounts) Revenue $ 215,346 $206,474 4.3% $ 215,346 $206,474 4.3% Gross Profit 81,344 89,430 (9.0%) 81,344 89,430 (9.0%) EBITDA* 160,596 154,805 3.7% 158,708 149,517 6.1% Operating profit* 56,924 66,727 (14.7%) 55,036 61,438 (10.4%)
*EBITDA is profit before depreciation of tangible assets, amortisation of intangible assets, finance costs, other gains and losses and income tax. Operating profit is profit before net finance costs, other gains and losses and income tax. The Underlying EBITDA and operating profit results add back share based payment charges.
We released 77 films in the year ended March 31, 2013 compared to 77 in the year ended March 31, 2012.
Higher revenue was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations, in relation to both the Indian Rupee and Sterling against the US dollar, with the Indian Rupee 13.1% lower at March 31, 2013 than at March 31, 2012. As 62.8% (2012: 66.3%) of our revenues arise in India our reported US Dollars numbers continue to be impacted by the Rupee re-rating.
Revenue
Revenue was $215.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $206.5 million in the year ended March 31, 2012 an increase of $8.8 million, or 4.3%.
Revenue by customer location from India was $135.3 million in the year ended March 31 2013, compared to $136.9 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 1.2% principally reflecting the growth in theatrical revenue offset by the impact of foreign exchange and television sales impacted by the HBO collaboration. Revenue from Europe was $35.1 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $26.9 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $8.2 million, or 30.5%, principally reflecting an increase in television sales and other revenues. Revenue from North America was $12.7 million in the year ended March 31 2013, compared to $8.4 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $4.3 million, or 51.2%, principally reflecting increased digital and syndication revenues. Revenue from Rest of World was $32.2 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $34.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 6.1%, principally reflecting a slight decrease in television partially offset by revenue from distribution in new territories.
Our total revenue growth was primarily attributable to an increase in theatrical revenue in the year ended March 31, 2013, as a result of our film slate releases and the continued wider screen releases in India The revenue growth in our theatrical revenues reflected in particular the success of our globally released films
Cost of sales
Cost of sales increased by $17.0 million, or 14.5%, for the year ended March 31, 2013 to the year ended March 31, 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase in film amortisation costs of $15.4 million in the period, driven by an increased investment in new release slate as well as catalogue films in the year ended March 31, 2013 and the cumulative impact of amortisation costs associated with our increased catalogue films. Other costs of sale, which principally consist of advertising and print costs, increased by $1.5 million reflecting an increase in advertising costs offset by a reduction of print costs and associated costs as we continued to increase globally the usage of digital prints as opposed to physical formats.
Gross profit
Gross profit was $81.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $89.4 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $8.1 million, or 9.0%, driven primarily by the increase in cost of sales, which was partially offset by an increase in revenues. As a percentage of revenue, our gross profit margin reduced to 37.8% from 43.3% in the years ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012.
Administrative costs
Administrative costs, including rental, legal, travel and audit expenses, were $26.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $28.0 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 6.1%, which was driven by a decrease of $3.4 million of share based payment charges compared to the year ended March 31 2012, and $1.7 million of additional overhead. As a percentage of revenue, administrative costs were 12.2% in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to 13.6% in the year ended March 31, 2012. The share based payment charges comprise the ongoing charges arising from the Indian IPO share option scheme and the JSOP scheme introduced in April 2012. As at March 31, 2012, costs incurred in respect of the anticipated listing on the New York Stock Exchange, excluding costs in relation to employees which have been taken to the profit or loss, have been deferred and is shown with in prepaid charges in trade and other receivables.
Underlying EBITDA
Underlying EBITDA profit was $160.6 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $154.8 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $5.8 million, or 3.7%, driven by the increase in revenue, offset by an increase in cost of sales. As a percentage of revenue, our underlying EBITDA profit margin reduced slightly to 74.6% from 75.0% in the years ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012.
Underlying operating profit
Underlying operating profit was $56.9 million in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to $66.7 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $9.8million, or 14.7%. As a percentage of revenue, our underlying operating profit reduced to 26.4% from 32.3% in the years ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 reflecting the changes in gross profit margin.
Net finance costs
Net finance cost in the year ended March 31, 2013 was $1.5 million, compared to $1.0 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, a movement of $0.5 million. The change is primarily attributable to continued investment in film slate impacting net debt levels during the year.
Other gains and losses
Other losses in the year ended March 31, 2013 of $7.9 million principally comprise a $5.6 million interest rate hedging charge (a non-cash item), a net foreign exchange loss of $1.9 million and loss on sale of assets of $0.4 million. In the prior year ended March 31, 2012 we had a loss of $6.8 million principally arising from a foreign exchange loss of $1.1 million, a $4.3 million interest rate hedging charge and $1.3 million in respect of a provision for our available-for-sale equity investments. The foreign exchange loss in the year ended March 31, 2013 was mainly derived from the fall of the rupee and sterling as compared to the US dollar which impacted US dollar denominated loans in our Indian subsidiary and sterling deposits.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense in the year ended March 31, 2013 was $11.9 million, compared to $10.1 million in the year ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $1.8 million, or 17.8%. Our effective tax rate was 26.1% in the year ended March 31, 2013, compared to 18.8% in the year ended March 31, 2012. The ongoing increases in the effective rate reflect the increase in the amount of taxes due within India in the year ended March 31, 2013 together with the impact of net hedging charges which are not deductible for tax purposes. Our income tax expense in the year ended March 31, 2013 included $7.1million of estimated current tax expense and $4.8million of estimated deferred tax expense. The increase in tax was also impacted by dividend distribution tax payable on the dividend declared by our Indian subsidiary.
Earnings per share
Earnings per share ("EPS") in the year ended March 31, 2013 were impacted by the decrease in reported profits. Basic EPS in the year ended March 31 2013 was 22.9 cents, compared to 31.9 cents in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 28.2%. Fully diluted EPS in the year ended March 31, 2013 was 22.7 cents, compared to 31.4 cents in the year ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 27.7% which were impacted by the decrease reported profits and an increase in the non-controlling interest in Eros International Media Limited, partially offset by a lower dilution of the share options held by employees
Other financial information
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates at the applicable statement of financial position date. For the purposes of consolidation of foreign operations, all income and expenses are translated at the quarterly average rate of exchange during the periods covered by the applicable statement of income and assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the statement of financial position date. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against a foreign currency, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars decreases. When the U.S. dollar weakens, the value of our sales and expenses in that currency converted to U.S. dollars increases.
Recently, there have been periods of higher volatility in the Indian Rupee and UK Sterling as compared to U.S. dollar exchange rate, including the years ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013. This Indian Rupee volatility is illustrated in the table below for the periods indicated:
Indian Rupee rate to the U.S. Dollar Period End Average (1) High Low March 31,2012 50.87 48.01 53.71 44.00 March 31, 2013 54.29 54.30 56.09 52.74
(1) Represents the average of the exchange rates on the last day of each month during each period presented.
This volatility in the Indian Rupee and UK Sterling as compared to the U.S. dollar has impacted our results of operations as shown in the table below comparing the reported results against constant currency comparables based upon the average rate of exchange for year ended March 31, 2013. In addition to the impact on gross profit, the volatility during the year ended March 31, 2013 also led to a non-cash foreign exchange loss of $2.0 million principally on our Indian subsidiaries' foreign currency loans and sterling deposits in other group entities in the year ended March 31, 2013 compared to a non-cash foreign exchange loss of $1.1 million in the year ended March 31 2012 reflected in other gains and losses.
2012 Unaudited 2013 2012 Constant Reported Reported Currency Decline Revenue $ 215.3 $ 206.5 $ 195.4 (11.1) Cost of sales (134.0) (117.1) (109.1) 8.0 Gross profit $ 81.3 $ 89.4 $ 86.3 (3.1)
The impact of the decline in the Rupee to the US Dollar is shown in the above table which shows that on a constant currency basis the gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2012 would have been reduced by $3.1 million or 3.5%.
