The Group's performance is all the more creditable in that we intentionally refrained from mass discounting evident elsewhere across our industry. Whilst still offering value for money to our customers, this has served to protect margins and maintain the brand value of our premium casual dining concepts. "The measures we have taken to refinance the business over recent months leave us well placed to progress with our expansion plans when the time is right. We have had an encouraging start to trading in the initial weeks of the year and remain confident of the future prospects for the Group." 19 April 2010 Enquiries: +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Individual Restaurant Company | | | Plc | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Steven Walker, Chief Executive | 020 7457 2020 (today) | | | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Vernon Lord, Finance Director | 0161 839 5511 (thereafter) | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Altium | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Mike Fletcher | 0845 505 4343 | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | David Foreman | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | College Hill | 020 7457 2020 | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Justine Warren | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Matthew Smallwood | | +---------------------------------+---------------------------------+ Chairman's statement Introduction Individual Restaurant Company plc ("IRC" or "the Group"), a leading restaurant operator with 33 premium casual dining restaurants throughout the UK which trade under the Piccolino (22) and Restaurant Bar & Grill (11) brands, announces its audited results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2009. As anticipated, trading conditions continued to be challenging in 2009. However, against this backdrop the Group is pleased to announce profit before tax (before non trading costs) for the year of GBP1.3m which was ahead of market consensus. Net debt reduced in the year by GBP3.4m down to GBP12.4m (2008: GBP15.8m). As a multiple of EBITDA (before non trading costs), the year end net debt was just below 2.5 times compared with 3.0 times in 2008. Financial performance Revenues have increased across the Group by GBP0.9m (1.7%) to GBP53.3m (2008: GBP52.5m). Restaurant EBITDA* decreased across the Group by GBP0.7m to GBP8.8m (2008: GBP9.5m). This was partially offset by central cost savings of GBP0.4m. As a result EBITDA for the year of GBP5.0m was down GBP0.3m on 2008. In anticipation of a challenging economic environment in 2009, the Group implemented a cost saving programme which achieved annual savings of GBP2.1m, GBP0.1m ahead of target, including the GBP0.4m of central cost savings referred to above. The gross margin for the period remained in line with 2008. Both Restaurant Bar & Grill and Piccolino offer customers excellent value for money. This is verified by the regular comparative pricing surveys which the Group undertakes in respect of other leading casual dining restaurant brands. As previously reported, the Group has taken a strategic decision to refrain from entering the mass discounting market which has been widely practised across the restaurant sector. Tactical promotions have occasionally been implemented to maintain margins and preserve the brand value of the Group's premium casual dining concepts. The Board is confident this remains the correct, long term strategy and will benefit the Group in the future. Central costs in 2009 were GBP3.8m (2008: GBP4.2m) representing 7.1% of revenue (2008: 8.0%). Savings were generated primarily from reduced headcount. Finance cost in the year fell to GBP0.7m (2008: GBP1.0m). The savings resulted from a lower average net debt level throughout the year combined with a significant reduction in base rates as, for the first six months of the year the Group's facility was still tracking the base rate. Profit before tax and non trading items was GBP1.3m (2008: GBP1.8m). Year on year profit before tax and non trading items fell GBP0.5m due entirely to an uplift in the annual depreciation charge from GBP2.6m to GBP3.1m. The uplift in the depreciation charge was due principally to restaurants opened in 2008. In the year non trading costs totalled GBP2.2m (2008: GBP0.6m), arising predominately from two areas: onerous lease provisions totalling GBP1.2m and business restructuring costs of GBP0.9m. The onerous lease provisions comprised GBP0.8m relating to the conversion of Wandsworth Piccolino to a Group training and trialling centre and an increase in the provision on Zinc Birmingham of GBP0.4m. In the current property market conditions it has proved difficult to find a suitable buyer for this unit and as a result the two year ongoing cost provision when the unit was closed in 2007 has been exhausted, necessitating a new provision for a further two years. Business restructuring costs for the year of GBP0.9m included closure costs at Wandsworth, bank arrangement fees resulting from our bank refinancing and costs associated with the successful equity fundraising completed in July 2009. There was a tax credit in the year of GBP0.1m (2008: a charge of GBP0.6m) which resulted from a movement in the deferred tax balance. After non trading items and tax the Group incurred a loss for the year of GBP0.8m (2008: profit of GBP0.5m). Cash flow and Balance Sheet Net debt reduced in the year by GBP3.4m down to GBP12.4m (2008: GBP15.8m). The reduction in net debt was driven by two factors. Firstly the Group completed an equity fundraising of GBP2.6m. As above the costs associated with this are shown on the consolidated income statement as part of business restructuring costs. Secondly the Group generates strong cash flow from operations, GBP3.4m in 2009, which, after interest and maintenance capital expenditure resulted in GBP1.4m of free cash flow. With net debt at GBP12.4m, gearing was 29% (2008: 38%). Interest costs of GBP0.7m were covered by EBITDA generated in the year by a factor of almost eight times (2008: five times). As a multiple of EBITDA the year end net debt was just below 2.5 times compared with 3.0 times in 2008. The available headroom on the banking facility was GBP6.1m compared with GBP2.7m in 2008. Following the successful equity fundraising, the Group held discussions with its banking partner and negotiated the cancellation of the planned facility amortisation of GBP1.0m scheduled for December 2009. Having very comfortably passed all year end banking covenant tests the Group has held further discussions with its bank in 2010. As a result of those discussions the loan is now non-amortising (under the previous facility amortisation payments totalling GBP2.0m and GBP2.5m were due in 2010 and 2011 respectively) and the term of the facility has been extended twelve months to January 2013. This new facility is a positive step for the Group and will allow the Group to return to estate growth when the timing is right. Future outlook and current trading The Group anticipates that trading conditions in 2010 will be as challenging as 2009. In common with most of the industry, trading over the first two weeks of 2010 was affected by the adverse weather conditions which kept many customers at home. The impact of these conditions was felt most acutely outside of the South East of England where a disproportionate number of the Group's restaurants are based. The first quarter of 2010 has also seen many operators returning to the same discount-led promotions used in 2009. The Group will continue with its strategy of avoiding the margin erosion resulting from such policies, concentrating instead on the quality of its people, food, customer service and restaurant cleanliness to drive long term financial success. Pleasingly, despite the impact on sales from the snow and short term challenges resulting from competitor discounting, trading performance (as measured by EBITDA) is marginally ahead of last year after the first eight weeks of trading. This year will see a keen focus on organic growth from the Group's existing portfolio of restaurants. Likewise, we will maintain our tight grip on cost control going forward. Leases have been signed on four sites, Aberdeen, Knutsford, the City of London and Dorking. The quantum and timing of these openings will be determined by trading performance, which, as already stated, we expect to remain challenging in 2010. No new sites will be opened in the first half of 2010. The Board believes that the Group's results in such a difficult and challenging year as 2009 demonstrate the robustness of its brands and business models and remains confident of the future prospects for Individual Restaurant Company.

The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009 have not yet been filed at Companies House, but will be in due course. The auditor has reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 498 (2) of the Companies Act 2006. The 2009 statutory accounts are prepared on the basis of the accounting policies stated in the Consolidated Interim report for the period ended 30 June 2009. Copies of the June 2009 interim report can be found on the Company's website at: www.individualrestaurantcompanyplc.co.uk. Going concern The Group has a credit facility of GBP18.5m repayable in January 2012, subject to annual review. The credit facility is subject to amortisation prior to maturity. Based on heavily sensitised forecasts to 31 March 2011, the Group will remain compliant with the covenants. The directors have prepared heavily sensitised forecasts. Reasonable enquiries have been made and assumptions taken with regard to cashflow and prudent sensitivities. The Board is satisfied that should the lower of these estimates be achieved, the Group will generate sufficient working capital to meet all of its liabilities through implementing a number of cost saving initiatives which could be easily implemented should the need arise. The group has held discussions with the bank in 2010 and has successfully refinanced the loan facility. The loan is now non-amortising and the term of the facility has been extended by twelve months to January 2013. It is the opinion of the Directors that forecasted profit will be achieved and that the Group will continue to attract customers to its restaurants. In addition, support from the Group's bankers has been confirmed.
