Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

for the six month period to 30 June

 

1 General information

 

The address of the Company’s registered office is Avis House, Park Road, Bracknell, Berkshire, RG12 2EW.

 

2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies

 

This condensed consolidated interim financial information has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Except for the calculation of the tax charge (see Note 8) and further exceptions described below, the accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation applied are consistent with those adopted in the Group's latest annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

New standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards - effective in the six month period ended 30 June 2011

The following new standards, amendments to standards or interpretations are mandatory for the first time for the six months commencing 1 January 2011 and have been applied by the Group where relevant but have had no significant impact on the Group's condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

   

IFRS 10, Presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements where an entity controls one or more other entities (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IFRS 12, Disclosure of interests in other entities (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IFRS 13, Fair value measurements and related disclosures (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IAS 24 (revised), Related party disclosures (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IAS 32, Financial instruments: presentation (amendment - 'Classification of rights issues') (effective 1 February 2010).

 

   

IFRIC 14 (Amendment), Prepayments of a minimum funding requirement (effective 1 January 2011).

 

   

IFRIC 19, Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments (effective 1 July 2010).

Note that the following new standard, interpretations and amendments to published standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after the stated effective date, and have therefore not been adopted to date:

 

   

IFRS 9, Financial instruments (effective 1 January 2013).

IFRS 9, “Financial instruments”, a proposed replacement for IAS39, comprises three individual phases as follows:

1) Classification and measurement - a number of minor changes to the measurement of financial assets and liabilities are proposed.

2) Impairment - a number of amendments to impairment rules including assessment of credit losses are proposed.

3) Hedge accounting - current proposals are expected to make hedge accounting simpler and easier to apply than is currently the case under IAS39.

Management are currently reviewing the impact of the above. The impact of phases 1 and 2 are expected to be limited other than further disclosure amendments. The impact of phase 3 would impact the accounting for some of the Group’s current hedging arrangements.

Segment Reporting

In accordance with IFRS8, Operating segments, the Group adopts a “management approach” to segment reporting such that segmental information is in the form which management uses internally for assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to operating segments. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker being the Group Chief Executive.

for the six month period to 30 June

 

2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies (continued)

 

Underlying measures

In addition to total performance measures, the Group also discloses additional underlying performance measures, including underlying profit and underlying earnings per share. The Group believes that these underlying performance measures provide additional useful information on business trends. The term “underlying” is not defined under IFRS, and may therefore not be comparable with similarly titled profit measurements reported by any other company. It is not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, IFRS measures of profit.

These underlying measures are calculated based on reported profit before exceptional items, certain re-measurement items and adjustments to reflect the realised gains and losses on foreign exchange forward contracts and accrued interest cash flows on certain derivative financial instruments (economic hedge adjustments).

 

3 Revenue

 

The Group provides international vehicle rental services. Revenue is derived entirely from continuing activities. The Group experiences a natural increase in demand from Leisure customers over the European summer holiday months which generally results in lower revenue generated in the first half of the year as compared to the second half.

Revenue is analysed below and comprises rental income, licensee income and the disposal of vehicles not subject to manufacturer repurchase agreements.

For management purposes the Group does not apply IAS 16 in terms of reporting revenue from disposal of vehicles not subject to manufacturer repurchase agreements, and instead nets such revenue against the related net book value arising upon disposal in cost of sales. The revenue from the sale of such vehicles was €106.9 million (2010: €155.8 million) (see Note 3).

2 

Other revenue includes income from the sale of fuel, sub-licensee income, the provision of foreign exchange services to rental customers and other incidental operating income.

Arise in the corporately-owned business segment.

No adjustment is made between segments to recharge in the Income Statement the value of the Avis brand, licence rights, or to allocate the value of goodwill written off to reserves in previous periods. Avis goodwill of €1,080.4 million arising before 1 March 1998 was fully written off to reserves, and Budget goodwill of €33.9 million arising on 12 March 2003 was fully impaired and charged to the Income Statement in previous periods. The remaining book value of goodwill at 30 June 2011 is allocated to the corporately-owned segment. Had the value of Avis goodwill, brand or licence rights been charged to the segments, the individual segment results would be materially affected. An element of the value of Budget brand rights is recharged between corporately-owned and Budget Licensee operations where the Budget brand is used, amounting to €0.5 million (2010: €0.4 million).

The increase in total assets reflects the seasonal nature of the business and the proportional distribution of these assets within each segment is consistent with those disclosed in the last Annual Report.

a) Costs relating to the proposed acquisition of the Group by Avis Budget Group, Inc. are being incurred and recognised as exceptional items. While many of these costs are contingent upon the transaction completing, €2.1 million related to national insurance costs associated with share options has been recognised in the current period.
b) Professional, legal, consultancy and other costs were incurred in the prior period in conjunction with a refinancing and Rights Issue. Certain of these costs, together with the write-off of unamortised issue costs arising upon cessation of existing facilities, have been recognised as exceptional costs.
c) In the prior period the Group disposed of a leasehold interest in a UK property. Prior to sale, a carrying amount of €2.0 million regarding the Group's interest in the property was recognised as a current asset. The total disposal proceeds, net of expenses, were €6.8 million. Accordingly, a premium of €4.8 million was recognised.
d) During the prior period, a re-assessment of remaining restructuring provisions which had previously been recognised led to a €0.2 million exceptional credit.
e) During the period, the Group recognised realised gains of €2.3 million (2010: losses of €2.4 million) and unrealised losses of €1.8 million (2010: losses of €1.8 million) on non debt-related financial instruments, and realised losses of €20.4 million (2010: losses of €6.5 million) and unrealised gains of €20.6 million (2010: gains of €1.3 million) on debt-related financial instruments.
f) Economic hedging arrangements have been entered into for which the Group is unable to apply hedge accounting under IAS 39. To the extent that IAS 39 does not permit hedge accounting, economic hedge adjustments are applied to recognise in the Group’s underlying results those movements in the fair value of derivatives that offset movements in the value of the items being economically hedged (which themselves are recognised in the Group’s underlying results).

Economic hedging arrangements have been entered into for which the Group is unable to apply hedge accounting under IAS 39. To the extent that IAS 39 does not permit hedge accounting, economic hedge adjustments are applied to recognise in the Group’s underlying results those movements in the fair value of derivatives that offset movements in the value of the items being economically hedged (which themselves are recognised in the Group’s underlying results).

 

8 Taxation

 

The underlying effective rate of taxation was reduced to 32% (2010: 43%) as a consequence of results arising in different jurisdictions impacting both current and deferred taxation, together with the satisfactory resolution of a number of historic matters. The current rate is calculated on the basis of an estimated underlying effective rate for the year ended 31 December 2011. The effective tax rate on exceptional items, certain re-measurement items and economic hedges is nil (2010: 45%), reflecting the mix of relevant items.

9 Earnings per share

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share are based on the earnings for the six month period and the weighted average number of shares in issue for the six month period attributable to equity holders of the Company.

Options have been granted to certain Directors and employees over ordinary shares of the Company and constitute the only category of potentially dilutive ordinary shares. These options increased the weighted average number of shares in 2011 as certain related performance conditions were fully satisfied and the prevailing market price was in excess of the option exercise price. In 2010, either the option exercise prices were in excess of the prevailing market share price or exercise of the options was subject to performance conditions which had not been fully satisfied by the period end.

The weighted average number of shares is as follows:

 

Millions of shares                 2011      2010

Diluted

          195.3         913.3   
       

 

 

    

 

 

 
After adjusting for the Rights Issue and own shares held, the weighted average number of shares in issue for the six month period was 193,630,611 (2010 adjusted: 123,478,411).

The decrease in the number of ordinary shares since 30 June 2010 period end represents the combined effect of the prior year Rights Issue and subsequent share consolidation.

 

13 Own shares held

 

As of the balance sheet date, own shares were held by the Avis Europe Employee Share Trust, a discretionary trust, to partially satisfy options and awards under a number of the Group’s share schemes. The Company’s shares had a nominal value of 10 pence (2010: 1 pence) per share.

At 30 June 2011, the Trust held 2,250,557 shares (2010: 6,955,848), which has been recognised as a reduction in shareholders’ equity. The movement in the number of shares held primarily comprises the full take-up of the Rights Issue allocation offset by an adjustment upon the share consolidation (see Note 9). The market price of the shares as at 30 June 2011 was 310.3 pence per share (2010 rebased combined effect of the prior year Rights Issue and subsequent share consolidation: 221.7 pence per share; 2010 as reported: 29.5 pence per share). The market value of own shares held as at 30 June 2011 was £7.0 million (2010: £2.1 million). None of the shares held at the period end are under option to employees, nor have they been conditionally gifted to them. The Avis Europe Employee Share Trust has not waived its right to any dividends on these shares.

15 Acquisition

 

On 4 February 2011, the Group completed the acquisition of the remaining 50% of the French joint venture, OKIGO. Post acquisition, the OKIGO operations have been absorbed within the operations of Avis France and have been relaunched as part of the Group’s new “Avis on Demand” hourly rental service. The results and cash flows arising subsequent to the acquisition are therefore not separately identifiable, but are not considered material, and accordingly are not disclosed separately. The details of the net liabilities acquired (being 100% of the net liabilities of OKIGO at the date of acquisition), goodwill and consideration are set out below. Goodwill represents the surplus of consideration over the net liabilities acquired.

16 Contingent liabilities

 

The Company and certain subsidiaries have provided unsecured guarantees to certain third parties within the normal course of business, the majority of which were in favour of certain lenders in respect of some of the Group's loan notes and borrowing facilities, together with guarantees provided to certain vehicle suppliers and property lessors. As at 30 June 2011, these guarantees totalled €710.9 million (2010: €893.2 million) of which €489.0 million (2010: €706.1 million) related to the Group's financing facilities and €64.1 million (2010: €66.4 million) related to insurance.

Certain Group companies are defendants in a number of claims and legal proceedings incidental to their operations. The Directors do not expect that any of these contingencies will have a material negative impact on the results or financial position of the Group.

Costs arising from the acquisition of the Group by Avis Budget Group, Inc. are being incurred by the Group, including professional, legal, and consulting fees, accelerated share option charges and associated national insurance costs, together with accelerated amortisation of issue costs in relation to certain committed debt and derivative facilities.

Save as disclosed herein and excluding intra-group indebtedness and guarantees, no member of the Group had at the close of business on 30 June 2011 any outstanding loan capital (including loan capital created but unissued), term loans or any other borrowings or indebtedness in the nature of borrowings, including bank overdrafts, liabilities under acceptances (other than normal trade bills) or acceptance credits, hire purchase commitments, obligations under finance leases, guarantees or other contingent liabilities.
