MANDARIN ORIENTAL INTERNATIONAL LIMITED

HALF-YEARLY RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30TH JUNE 2017

OVERVIEW

Group earnings were lower during the first half of the year primarily due to the impact of the ongoing renovation of the London property. The collective results of the Group's other hotels were largely in line with the first half of 2016.

In June, the Group announced it was undertaking a review of its long-term strategic options with regard to The Excelsior, Hong Kong, including testing market interest in a possible sale of the property for redevelopment.

PERFORMANCE

Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the first six months of 2017 were US$62 million, down from US$71 million in the first half of 2016.

Underlying profit for the period was US$15 million, compared with US$25 million in 2016, and underlying earnings per share were USc1.19, compared with USc1.97 in 2016. With no non-trading items during the period, profit attributable to shareholders was also US$15 million. This compares to US$23 million in 2016, after deducting US$2 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of Mandarin Oriental, Boston.

An interim dividend of USc1.50 per share has been declared, unchanged from last year.

At 30th June 2017, the Group's net debt was US$321 million, compared to US$297 million at the end of 2016.

GROUP REVIEW

Overall Group earnings were lower during the first half of the year mainly due to the impact of the ongoing phased renovation in London. The Group's results were also negatively impacted by inclusion for the first time of the traditionally weak first quarter of the Boston hotel, which was acquired at the end of April 2016. Elsewhere, weaker results in Jakarta and New York were more than offset by improved performances in Paris, Munich and Washington. Results across the rest of the portfolio, including Hong Kong, were broadly stable.

The renovation of Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London remains on schedule, with the first phase due to complete in August. The second phase, which will commence in September, is expected to complete in the second quarter of 2018.

STRATEGIC REVIEW OF THE EXCELSIOR, HONG KONG

Following an announcement in June, the Group is pursuing strategic options for The Excelsior, Hong Kong, which include the possible sale of the property for redevelopment. The wholly-owned property, which is the Group's only four star hotel, is situated on a prime commercial site that has approval for the development of a commercial building. The process is continuing and a further announcement will be made once a decision is reached on the preferred course of action.

NEW DEVELOPMENTS

The Group announced four management contracts during the first half of 2017. New hotels, each with branded residences, are scheduled to open in Dubai and Honolulu in 2020, and in Melbourne in 2022. The Group has also taken over the management of a hotel in Santiago, Chile, which will be rebranded as Mandarin Oriental, Santiago once an extensive guestroom and public area renovation has been completed.

OUTLOOK

While earnings will continue to be impacted into 2018 by the renovation of the London property, the Group's strong brand, healthy balance sheet and portfolio growth will support its future performance.

Tax relating to components of other comprehensive income or expense comprises cash flow hedges of US$0.1 million (2016: nil).

Tax on profits has been calculated at rates of taxation prevailing in the territories in which the Group operates.

Share of tax of associates and joint ventures of US$1.1 million (2016: US$1.0 million) is included in share of results of associates and joint ventures (note 4).

   6.    EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share are calculated on the profit attributable to shareholders of US$15.0 million (2016: US$22.9 million) and on the weighted average number of 1,257.2 million (2016: 1,255.9 million) shares in issue during the period.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated on profit attributable to shareholders of US$15.0 million (2016: US$22.9 million) and on the weighted average number of 1,261.0 million (2016: 1,261.2 million) shares after adjusting for the number of shares which are deemed to be issued for no consideration under the share-based long-term incentive plans based on the average share price during the period.

The weighted average number of shares is arrived at as follows:

 
                                       Ordinary shares in millions 
                                                     2017     2016

Fair value estimation

(i) Financial instruments that are measured at fair value

For financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the balance sheet, the corresponding fair value measurements are disclosed by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

(a) Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly ('observable current market transactions')

The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined using rates quoted by the Group's bankers at the balance sheet date. The rates for interest rate swaps and caps and forward foreign exchange contracts are calculated by reference to market interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

The fair values of unlisted investments, which are classified as available-for-sale and mainly include club and school debentures, are determined using prices quoted by brokers at the balance sheet date.

(b) Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data ('unobservable inputs')

The fair values of other unlisted securities, which are classified as available-for-sale, are determined using valuation techniques by reference to observable current market transactions (including price-to earnings and price-to book ratios of listed securities of entities engaged in similar industries) or the market prices of the underlying investments with certain degree of entity specific estimates.

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the six months ended 30th June 2017 and the year ended 31st December 2016.

The table below analyzes financial instruments carried at fair value at 30th June 2017 and 31st December 2016, by the levels in the fair value measurement hierarchy:

 
                                                        Observable

(ii) Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value

The fair values of current debtors, bank and cash balances, current creditors and current borrowings are assumed to approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

The fair values of long-term borrowings are based on market prices or are estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates.
