MANDARIN ORIENTAL INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT OF RESULTS
FOR THE YEARED 31ST DECEMBER 2017
OVERVIEW
Underlying profit was slightly lower than the prior year primarily due to the impact of the renovation of the London property. The combined results of the Group's other hotels improved in 2017.
The Group is continuing to review strategic options for The Excelsior, Hong Kong, including the possible redevelopment of the site into a commercial building.
PERFORMANCE
Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization were in line with the prior year at US$158 million, despite the adverse impact of the London renovation. Underlying profit declined from US$57 million in 2016 to US$55 million in 2017. Underlying earnings per share were USc4.37 compared with USc4.56 in 2016. With no non-trading items during the year, profit attributable to shareholders was also US$55 million, unchanged from 2016.
Following an independent valuation of the Group's owned properties, the net asset value per share was US$4.57 at 31st December 2017, compared with US$3.10 per share at the end of 2016. This increase mainly reflects the higher valuation of The Excelsior, Hong Kong.
In light of the ongoing programme of renovations, the Directors recommend a reduced final dividend of USc1.50 per share. This, together with the interim dividend of USc1.50 per share, will make a total annual dividend of USc3.00 per share, compared to USc4.00 per share in 2016.
At 31st December 2017, the Group's net debt was US$327 million, compared to US$297 million at the end of 2016. Gearing as a percentage of adjusted shareholders' funds at 31st December 2017, after taking into account the market value of the Group's property interests, was 6% compared to 8% at the end of 2016.
GROUP REVIEW
Despite a generally improved performance across the portfolio, notably in Hong Kong, underlying profit was slightly lower, mainly due to the impact of the renovation in London.
The renovation of Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London remains on schedule. The first phase was completed in September 2017, and the second phase is expected to complete in the second quarter of 2018.
Hotel Ritz, Madrid closed at the end of February 2018 to commence a EUR99 million restoration, of which the Group will fund its half share. The renovation will be extensive, covering all guestrooms and public areas, and will include the restoration of many interior architectural features. The hotel is expected to reopen towards the end of 2019.
STRATEGIC REVIEW OF THE EXCELSIOR, HONG KONG
In June 2017, the Group announced that consideration was being given to its strategic options for The Excelsior, Hong Kong. A subsequent review of market interest in a potential sale did not give rise to any acceptable offers. The Group is still considering all options for the site, including possible redevelopment as a commercial property, although no decision has yet been made.
NEW DEVELOPMENTS
Seven new management contracts were signed and announced in 2017. Mandarin Oriental hotels, each with branded residences, are scheduled to open in Dubai and Honolulu in 2020, in a second location in London in 2021 and in Melbourne in 2022. A new hotel project in Beijing, which will feature 72 guestrooms located in a traditional hutong quarter, is expected to open in 2019. The Group also took over the management of two existing hotels during the year, in Santiago, Chile and on Canouan in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. In time both will be rebranded as Mandarin Oriental properties.
In the first two months of 2018, the Group announced two further projects. In Barcelona, it will brand and manage 34 Residences, in an existing property close to Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona, opening in 2020. In Viña del Mar, a coastal resort in Chile, the Group will manage a 195-room hotel, also due to open in 2020.
In the next 12 months, the Group expects to open its first hotels in the Middle East, in Doha and Jumeirah Beach, Dubai, as well as Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing in Beijing.
PEOPLE
On behalf of the Directors, I would like to acknowledge the contribution of all colleagues throughout the Group for continuing to facilitate the exceptional experiences we provide to our guests.
Dr Richard Lee and Lord Powell will step down from the Board at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting and will not seek re-election. We would like to thank them for their contributions to the Company. We are very pleased that Jack Chen, a senior executive of Taikang Insurance Group, Inc., has been invited to join the Board with effect from 9th May 2018.
OUTLOOK
In 2018, profit will be impacted by the final stages of the renovation of Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London as well as the commencement of the renovation of Hotel Ritz, Madrid. In the longer term, however, Mandarin Oriental will benefit from these investments as well as the strength of its brand and the opening of new hotels under development.
Ben Keswick

GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S REVIEW
2017 has been a busy year and a considerable amount has been achieved. The Group's hotels generally performed well with Revenue Per Available Room ('RevPAR') increasing by 5% in US dollar terms on a like-for-like basis(1) . Underlying EBITDA(2) also held firm despite the adverse impact from the renovation of our London property. Progress on this renovation, alongside receiving approval from the city authorities for the restoration of Hotel Ritz in Madrid, have been highlights. The Group also embarked on a strategic review of The Excelsior hotel in Hong Kong, which is continuing. Moreover, seven new development properties were announced during the year.
The demand for luxury travel continues to grow strongly, which is encouraging. However, the luxury hotel landscape is evolving at a rapid pace, as global high net worth travellers increasingly look for unique experiences, while competition becomes more intense and diverse. New players are emerging in various forms, whether that be additional luxury brand operators producing new offerings, or disruptors seeking to enter the luxury hospitality space with alternative accommodation facilities. Technology is also increasingly playing its part in the variety of services and facilities on offer to guests and in the way in which brands engage and interact with their customers.
1 The like-for-like comparison includes all hotels that were operational for the entire year of both 2016 and 2017. As Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London was only partially closed as a result of the renovation during the period, the hotel is included in the like-for-like comparison. All references to RevPAR are in US dollar terms, unless stated otherwise.
2 The Group uses earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ('EBITDA') to analyze operating performance.
STRATEGY
Against this volatile background, Mandarin Oriental's vision - to be recognized as the world's best luxury hotel group - keeps us focused on what we do best and positions the Group for growth within the evolving market environment. Having grown from our Asian roots into a global brand, we currently operate 31 hotels and eight residences in 21 countries and territories. The Group holds equity interests in many of its hotels and also manages hotels on behalf of third party owners. As the Group expands, its management business is likely to account for an increasing proportion of the Mandarin Oriental portfolio.
Nonetheless, owned assets remain at the heart of the Group's portfolio and if we are to sustain our market position it is crucial that we invest appropriately in these owned properties. Mandarin Oriental's strong balance sheet makes it well placed to do this, while providing the means to consider selective investment opportunities in strategic destinations that have long-term asset growth potential.
Historically, the Group has been highly dependent upon corporate business with many of its properties being located at the heart of business districts. However, leisure travel is an increasingly important segment for us and we must adapt to offer a broader range of luxury leisure experiences, as well as business ones. At the same time, we will need to build further our reputation as an operator of resort properties.
An increasingly significant component of the luxury hospitality business today is the branding and managing of residential developments. The majority of the Group's recently announced developments incorporate a residential component.
The Group remains focused on ensuring that its hotels are positioned amongst the leaders in their individual markets. We continue to invest in the core brand attributes of exceptional design and architecture, restaurant and bar concepts, spa and wellness facilities, all of which are underpinned by intuitive personalized service. We stay alert to new trends and opportunities, ensuring the brand remains relevant to today's multi-generational audience. Recent new concepts include the opening of The Aviary NYC at Mandarin Oriental, New York and PDT Hong Kong at The Landmark Mandarin Oriental.
The Group's global recognition continues to be reflected in numerous awards from respected associations, and in 2018, Group restaurant outlets were awarded 21 Michelin stars across the portfolio, more than any other hotel brand in the world.
2017 PERFORMANCE
Underlying EBITDA of US$158 million were in line with the prior year, despite the disruption of the London renovation throughout 2017. Underlying profit was US$55 million in 2017, compared to US$57 million in 2016.
In Asia, RevPAR was up 8% overall in 2017 on a like-for-like basis as demand trends improved generally across the region. Several properties delivered double-digit RevPAR growth and an improved performance from the Group's wholly-owned Hong Kong hotels was particularly notable.
Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong achieved a 6% increase in RevPAR over the previous year. The hotel experienced improved leisure demand, while corporate demand was broadly stable, which helped the hotel to maintain its overall competitive position in the market. Its wide range of restaurants and bars attracted more hotel guests and the local community, with food and beverage revenues up 5% over the previous year.
The Excelsior, Hong Kong also benefited from improved city-wide demand, with increased occupancy leading to a 7% uplift in RevPAR. The Group continues to review a variety of strategic options for the site, including possible redevelopment as a commercial property, and a further announcement will be made once a decision is reached.
Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok benefited from improved visitor arrivals to the city in 2017, which led to an increase in RevPAR of 8% in local currency terms, or 14% in US dollar terms, as a result of a stronger baht. The 2016 renovation of the Garden Wing was also a positive factor in the property's overall performance.
Mandarin Oriental, Jakarta had another difficult year with RevPAR down 16%. Increased competition, together with very weak corporate demand, put pressure on average rates and occupancy levels.
In Europe, while the renovation of the London property negatively impacted the Group's overall results, improved performances across the rest of the region led to a RevPAR increase of 4% on a like-for-like basis.
Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London's performance was affected by the phased renovation and by ongoing security concerns in the city. Consequently, RevPAR was down 37%. The first phase of the renovation was completed in September 2017, and the new Knightsbridge wing rooms have been well received. The second phase, involving the Hyde Park wing, is now underway. When complete in the second quarter of 2018, the hotel will be in a strong position to reassert its claim to be the leader in luxury hospitality in the city.
Mandarin Oriental, Munich and Mandarin Oriental, Geneva delivered strong performances, with RevPAR up 12% and 10% respectively. Both hotels reinforced their market-leading positions in their individual markets.
Hotel Ritz, Madrid closed at the end of February 2018 for the start of a long-awaited restoration, which will involve the careful renovation of the hotel's many fine interior architectural features and the significant upgrade of its facilities and services, while maintaining its unique character. The hotel is expected to reopen in late 2019.
In The Americas, overall trading conditions were broadly in line with the prior year with RevPAR for the region up 1% on a like-for-like basis. Notably, Mandarin Oriental, Washington D.C. benefited from the Presidential Inauguration and stronger city-wide demand, which led to RevPAR growth of 19%. Mandarin Oriental, New York had a weaker year in 2017 with RevPAR down 6%, primarily due to lower leisure demand, although the hotel was able to maintain its competitive position in the market.
DEVELOPMENT
Currently, the Group has 15 hotels and nine residences under development which are likely to become operational within five years. All are management contracts with no equity participation, but as I stated earlier, consideration will continue to be given to investing in properties on an exceptional basis where they are felt to be strategic to our long-term positioning. The Group is focused on building its portfolio in major global city centre locations where the brand is currently absent, developing a strong resort portfolio and reinforcing the Group's position in existing markets by expanding its presence with new properties.
Additional resources have been added to the Group's development effort with a view to building a stronger pipeline of new openings over the coming years. While the Group has achieved a global reach, its strong reputation belies the modest size of its current hotel portfolio. This gives us a large and wide-ranging number of possible locations in which new properties can be considered. During the course of 2017, this was exemplified by the announcement of seven new management contracts as follows:
A new 125-room hotel and 107 branded residences in Honolulu on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, and a second property in Dubai, comprising 259 rooms and 158 branded residences. Both projects are scheduled to open in 2020.
A new 197-room hotel and 146 branded residences in Melbourne, Australia, due to open in 2022, will mark the Group's first entry into Australia.
A second, luxury hotel project in Beijing comprising 72 rooms located within the Qianmen East Hutong Quarter, close to Tiananmen Square. The hotel, which is due to open in 2019, will provide guests with a rare opportunity to experience luxury living in traditional and authentic Beijing surroundings.
A second London property on Hanover Square in the heart of London's Mayfair district, with 50 rooms and 80 branded residences. Mandarin Oriental Mayfair is expected to open in 2021.
Also during the year, the Group took over the management of two operating hotels. One is located in the city centre of Santiago, Chile, and the other is a luxury resort on Canouan in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Both projects will be rebranded as Mandarin Oriental properties in due course, thereby introducing the brand to two new important markets.
Since the start of 2018, the Group has announced a new management agreement for a 195-room beach front resort in Viña del Mar in Chile. Most recently, the Group announced an agreement to brand and manage 34 Residences by Mandarin Oriental, close to Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona. Both projects are due to open in 2020.
In the next 12 months, the Group expects to open its first hotels in the Middle East, in Doha and Dubai, as well as Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing in Beijing.
STRUCTURE
To date the Group has been organized in geographic segments with senior executives holding management responsibility for Asia, Europe and The Americas. With effect from 1st January 2018 a Chief Operating Officer has been appointed with all operating hotels reporting to him either directly or indirectly. This will help to ensure that consistent operating standards are maintained across our global portfolio as we grow. A Chief Relationship Officer has also been appointed to manage many of the Group's key owner relationships as well as to oversee the development of new properties in the period prior to their ramp up for opening by an operating team.
CULTURE
At the heart of Mandarin Oriental's reputation as a luxury hotel group is its culture, derived from its oriental heritage and an unwavering focus on exceptional service that delivers personal experiences and moments of delight. I would like to personally thank our 12,000 colleagues for their dedication, commitment and loyalty in providing this exemplary service and to ensuring the smooth operation of our properties around the world. Sustaining and building upon the strong culture and professionalism of our colleagues is key to our present and future success. As we grow, so too does the challenge of sustaining this culture and point of differentiation, but I am confident that our colleagues will continue to rise to the task.
OUTLOOK
In 2018, the Group will focus on building its development pipeline in both existing and new markets. At the same time, the continued investment behind our core attributes as well as new, innovative concepts and services will ensure that the Mandarin Oriental brand remains relevant to today's multi-generational audience. Earnings will be held back by the final months of the renovation of Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London as well as the commencement of the restoration of Hotel Ritz, Madrid. Looking forward however, the Group's results will benefit from enhanced contributions from these renovated flagship properties and from the growing pipeline of new hotels and residences as they open.

Mandarin Oriental International Limited
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Board has overall responsibility for risk management and internal control. The process by which the Group identifies and manages risk will be set out in more detail in the Corporate Governance section of the Company's 2017 Annual Report (the 'Report'). The following are the principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company as required to be disclosed pursuant to the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules issued by the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom and are in addition to the matters referred to in the Chairman's Statement and Group Chief Executive's Review.
1. Economic and Financial Risk
The Group's business is exposed to the risk of negative developments in global and regional economies and financial markets, either directly or through the impact on the Group's investment partners, third-party hotel owners and developers, bankers, suppliers or customers. These developments can result in recession, inflation, deflation, currency fluctuations, restrictions in the availability of credit, business failures, or increases in financing costs. Such developments may increase operating costs, reduce revenues, lower asset values or result in the Group being unable to meet in full its strategic objectives. These developments could also adversely affect travel patterns which would impact demand for the Group's products and services.
The steps taken by the Group to manage its exposure to financial risk will be set out in the Financial Risk Management section in the Financial Statements in the Report.
2. Commercial and Market Risk
Risks are an integral part of normal commercial practices, and where practicable steps are taken to mitigate such risks.
The Group operates within the global hotel industry which is highly competitive. Failure to compete effectively in terms of quality of product, levels of service or price can have an adverse effect on earnings. This may also include failure to adapt to rapidly evolving customer preferences and expectations. Significant competitive pressure or the oversupply of hotel rooms in a specific market can lead to reduced margins. Advances in technology creating new or disruptive competitive pressures might also negatively affect the trading environment.
The Group competes with other luxury hotel operators for new opportunities in the areas of hotel management, residences management and residences branding. Failure to establish and maintain relationships with hotel owners or developers could adversely affect the Group's business. The Group also makes investment decisions in respect of acquiring new hotel properties and undertaking major renovations at hotels in which it has an ownership interest. The success of these investments is measured over the longer term and as a result is subject to market risk.
Mandarin Oriental's continued growth depends on the opening of new hotels and branded residences. Most of the Group's new developments are controlled by third-party owners and developers and can be subject to delays due to issues attributable to planning and construction, sourcing of finance, and the sale of residential units. In extreme circumstances, such factors might lead to the cancellation of a project.
3. Pandemic, Terrorism and Natural Disasters
The Group's business would be impacted by a global or regional pandemic as this would impact travel patterns, demand for the Group's products and services and could also affect the Group's ability to operate effectively. The Group's hotels are also vulnerable to the effects of terrorism, either directly through the impact of an act of terrorism or indirectly through the impact of generally reduced economic activity in response to the threat of or an actual act of terrorism. In addition, a number of the territories in which the Group operates can experience from time to time natural disasters such as typhoons, floods, earthquakes and tsunamis.
4. Key Agreements
The Group's business is reliant upon joint venture and partnership agreements, property leasehold arrangements, management, license, branding and services agreements or other key contracts. Cancellation, expiry or termination, or the renegotiation of any of these key agreements and contracts, could have an adverse effect on the financial performance of individual hotels as well as the wider Group.
5. Reputational Risk and Value of the Brand
The Group's brand equity and global reputation is fundamental in supporting its ability to offer premium products and services and to achieving acceptable revenues and profit margins. Any damage to the Group's brand equity or reputation, including as a result of negative effects relating to health and safety, acts or omissions by Group personnel, information system breaches, and any allegations of socially irresponsible policies and practices, might adversely impact the attractiveness of the Group's properties or the loyalty of the Group's guests.
6. Regulatory and Political Risk
The Group's business is subject to a number of regulatory environments in the territories in which it operates. Changes in the regulatory approach to such matters as employment legislation, tax rules, foreign ownership of assets, planning controls and exchange controls have the potential to impact the operations and profitability of the Group's business. Changes in the political environment, including prolonged civil unrest, could also affect the Group's business.
