Exhibit 99.1
Central European Distribution Corporation Announces First Quarter 2011 Results
Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, May 4, 2011: Central European Distribution Corporation (NASDAQ: CEDC) today announced its results for the first quarter of 2011. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $156.7 million as compared to $149.8 million reported for the same period in 2010. CEDC also announced that net income on a U.S. GAAP basis (as hereinafter defined), for the quarter was $1.1 million or $0.02 per fully diluted share, as compared to net loss of $23.4 million or $0.34 per fully diluted share, for the same period in 2010. On a comparable basis, CEDC announced a net loss of $17.4 million, or $0.24 per fully diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011, as compared to net profit of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per fully diluted share, for the same period in 2010. The number of fully diluted shares used in computing the earnings per share was 71.3 million for 2011 and 69.6 million for 2010. For a complete reconciliation of comparable net income to net income reported under United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) please see the section “Unaudited Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures”.
William Carey, President and CEO commented, “First quarter performance was in line with our expectations in all three of our markets of Poland, Russia and Hungary in terms of top line and bottom line performance. We expect to see significant quarter on quarter improvement moving through the rest of the year in 2011. We are meeting the challenges head on that are confronting us today and are making good progress in resolving these key challenges in our markets and strengthening the overall management team to target profitable market share gains over the medium term.”
William Carey, President and CEO continued, “In Russia, we have been successful in obtaining the renewal of all of our required production and distribution licenses due so far, including for our main production facility, Topaz, which we received today. As the wholesalers we work with in Russia continue to go through their relicensing we are not expecting any significant issues to arise from this process beyond the short term destocking effect as wholesalers reduce their inventory levels prior to license renewal.
William Carey, President and CEO continued, “We have numerous initiatives planned in June and July regarding two new products that will be launched in Russia as well as restyling and re-launching a new communication campaign behind our biggest brand, Green Mark. We also completed the 100% buyout of the Whitehall Group in February, 2011 and strongly believe in the growth potential of spirits and wines over the next five years, as evidenced by the 19% growth of our import business in Russia in the first quarter.”
William Carey, President and CEO continued, “In Poland, we saw an 8% volume increase in our vodka portfolio that sharply contrasted with an overall Polish vodka market that was down 6.5% for the quarter. The strong growth was led by our new product Zubrowka Biala which accounted for approximately five percent market share after only five months on the market. We also have strong new product development and product restyling/re-launch of existing brands that are scheduled to start from May and continue through the rest of the year. We believe we have turned the corner regarding our vodka growth and continue to see strong import growth from our leading import portfolio which represents over 46% of our Polish revenue base today.”
The Company also reconfirmed its full year 2011 net sales guidance of $880-$1,080 million and its full year comparable fully-diluted earnings per share guidance of $1.05-$1.25
CEDC has reported net income and fully diluted net income per share in accordance with GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis, referred to in this release as comparable net income. CEDC’s management believes that the non-GAAP reporting giving effect to the adjustments shown in the attached reconciliation provides meaningful information and an alternative presentation useful to investors’ understanding of CEDC’s core operating results and trends. CEDC discusses results and guidance on a comparable basis in order to give investors better insight into underlying business trends from continuing operations. CEDC’s calculation of these measures may not be the same as similarly named measures presented by other companies. These measures are not presented as an alternative to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a performance measure, and you should not place undue reliance on such measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures can be found in the section “Unaudited Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” at the end of this press release.
CEDC is one of the largest producers of vodka in the world and Central and Eastern Europe’s largest integrated spirit beverage business. CEDC produces the Green Mark, Absolwent, Zubrowka, Bols, Parliament, Zhuravli, Royal and Soplica brands, among others. CEDC currently exports its products to many markets around the world, including the United States, England, France and Japan.
CEDC also is the leading importer of alcoholic beverages in Poland, Russia and Hungary. In Poland, CEDC imports many of the world’s leading brands, including brands such as Carlo Rossi Wines, Concha y Toro wines, Metaxa Liqueur, Rémy Martin Cognac, Sutter Home wines, Grant’s Whisky, Jagermeister, E&J Gallo, Jim Beam Bourbon, Sierra Tequila, Teacher’s Whisky, Campari, Cinzano, and Old Smuggler. CEDC is also a leading importer of premium spirits and wines in Russia with such brands as Concha y Toro, among others.
This press release contains forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including, without limitation, statements regarding expected sales and earnings guidance, the anticipated acquisition of production and distribution or other regulatory licenses, expectations of increased consumer demand for our products, integration of our acquired companies, and expected results of, and synergies relating to, our Russian businesses. Forward looking statements are based on our knowledge of facts as of the date hereof and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of CEDC to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by our forward looking statements.

| [A] | Represents the net after tax impact of the foreign currency revaluation related to our USD and EUR financing as a majority of these borrowings have been lent down to entities that have the Polish Zloty or Russian Ruble as their functional currency. The impact of foreign exchange revaluation is inherently unpredictable and we have not forecasted the impact thereof; changes in foreign exchange revaluation may have a material effect on our financial results. |
| [B] | In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, which impacts the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments that allow for either mandatory or optional cash settlements. FSP APB 14-1 will impact the accounting associated with our $310.0 million senior convertible notes. This FSP requires us to recognize additional non-cash interest expense on a retrospective basis, based on the market rate for similar debt instruments without the conversion feature. Furthermore, it requires recognizing interest expense in prior periods pursuant to the retrospective accounting treatment. FSP APB 14-1 has become effective beginning in our first quarter of 2009 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all presented periods, as applicable. |
