The robust like-for-like growth in Turkey experienced in Q4'2019 has continued into the current year.  The Group is focused on addressing the issues and challenges in Russia, including appointing new management and adopting a new marketing strategy.  In Russia, the Group's advertising spend was materially higher in the first half of 2019 compared to its budgeted advertising expenses for the same period in 2020, as management is budgeting a flatter profile of advertising through the current year, and plans to use celebrity endorsement, a different channel mix, and simpler, price-led advertisements.  This year will be a year of transition in Russia in which the Group will focus on getting the new team established and strengthening the operating model, whilst also adapting its strategic approach.

 

Outlook

 

Whilst the Group remains comfortable with its medium-term financial guidance, the Board is mindful of the considerable current uncertainty surrounding the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on the business and wider economy in the countries in which the Group operates.  Therefore, the Board is not in a position to provide meaningful guidance on the likely financial and operating results for the current year. 

 

The Board believes that certain features of the Group's business may help it withstand the adverse impact of the pandemic including the essential nature of food services to consumers, its focus on delivery to customers, the growing reluctance of customers to leave their homes to dine out or buy groceries for fear of contracting the virus, and the affordable nature of the product at a time when domestic budgets may be under pressure. In the year to date, the pandemic has had a relatively small impact on the business with the exception of a reduction in dine in business in our Turkish restaurants (although our delivery and take out operations continue as normal). 

 

There is no indication whether governmental measures will have an effect in preventing a further spread of the disease around the world and therefore the duration of the pandemic.  If the pandemic and its impact on the business last for a protracted period, it is likely to have a more detrimental effect on the financial performance of the Group. The Group has taken proactive measures to ensure that its customers and employees continue to be safe and has established an internal task force to ensure that the supply chain is managed, critical inventory is available, and restaurants remain adequately staffed.  The Group appreciates that the Turkish government has indicated its preparedness to support companies and encourage banks to maintain access to credit facilities so as to assist the corporate sector manage through the crisis and maintain employment.

 

The Board is closely monitoring the potential impact of the pandemic on the Group, particularly with regard to the wellbeing of our colleagues and customers, has a comprehensive contingency plan in place and will further update the financial market in due course. 
 

The Russia Plan

The Group is implementing a detailed plan to address the challenges in the Russian market and continues to take proactive steps, including:

i.  hiring a new management team comprising CEO, COO and CFO;

ii.  making long term improvements to product, service and technology and further investment in the brand;

iii.  adopting a new marketing strategy making use of celebrity endorsement, cluster-based pricing, different channel mix, and simpler, price-led advertisements;

iv.  launching new products at entry level pricing;

v.  creating regional castles - starting with the Krasnodar area in the south;

vi.  expanding the use of corporate stores as well as franchise stores on to the aggregator platform; and

vii.  cost cutting measures.

Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Officer, Aslan Saranga said:

 

"On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to report another year of solid growth in 2019.  We continued to grow our store portfolio, adding 41 stores during 2019 and reaching a total of 765 stores across our four countries of operations.

"The Turkish business performed strongly in 2019 despite macro headwinds and posted a rising performance in each successive quarter.  Due to the recovery in macro parameters, the strong momentum has continued in Turkey into Q1 2020.

"In Russia, we successfully resolved certain issues with regional franchisees by acquiring and converting their stores to corporate stores.  The challenge in Russia in terms of like-for-like growth in 2019 was mainly attributable to record advertising spend by online aggregators fighting for market dominance and increasing delivery fast food competition through the aggregators.  We have completed the appointment of our Russian management team and launched a new marketing strategy in Russia with effect from the end of February to address the new market dynamics.

"We continue to focus on product innovation to drive growth; a key element of the Group's success to date.  Following our introduction of the co-branded KitKat® chocolate pizza and "Dürümos" wrap, we introduced four additional types of oven-baked sandwiches in Turkey.  We have relaunched the wrap and the pizza Quadro (rectangular pizza) at attractive entry level prices in Russia.  Additionally, we will start trialling the loyalty programme in Russia during 2020.

"Digital continues to drive our business forward with significant growth achieved in both of our markets. Online ordering as a percentage of delivery has reached 70% across the Group, an increase of more than nine percentage points from 2018, with the Russian business exceeding 80%.

"The Board is closely monitoring the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group, particularly with regard to the wellbeing of our colleagues and customers. It has a comprehensive contingency plan in place and will further update the financial market in due course."

Notes

(1) System sales are sales generated by the Group's corporate and franchised stores to external customers and do not represent revenue of the Group.

 (2) Like-for-like growth is a comparison of sales between two periods that compares system sales of existing system stores. The Group's system stores that are included in like-for-like system sales comparisons are those that have operated for at least 52 weeks preceding the beginning of the first month of the period used in the like-for-like comparisons for a certain reporting period, assuming the relevant system store has not subsequently closed or been "split" (which involves the Group opening an additional store within the same map of an existing store or in an overlapping area).

(3) EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and non-recurring and non-trade income/expenses are not defined by IFRS. These items are determined by the principles defined by the Group management and comprise income/expenses which are assumed by the Group management to not be part of the normal course of business and are non-trading items. These items which are not defined by IFRS are disclosed by the Group management separately for a better understanding and measurement of the sustainable performance of the Group.  Please refer to Note 3 in the Consolidated Financial statements for a reconciliation of these items with IFRS.

(4) Adjusted net income is not defined by IFRS.  Adjusted net income excludes income and expenses which are not part of the normal course of business and are non-recurring items. Management uses this measurement basis to focus on core trading activities of the business segments and to assist it in evaluating underlying business performance.  Please refer to Note 3 in the Consolidated Financial statements for a reconciliation of this item with IFRS.

(5) Net debt and adjusted net debt are not defined by IFRS. Adjusted net debt includes cash deposits used as a loan guarantee and cash paid, but not collected during the non-working day at the year end. Management uses these numbers to focus on net debt including deposits not otherwise considered cash and cash equivalents under IFRS.  Please refer to Note 16 in the Consolidated Financial statements for a reconciliation of these items with IFRS.

(6) Delivery system sales are system sales of the Group generated through the Group's delivery distribution channel.

(7) Online system sales are system sales of the Group generated through its online ordering channel.

(8) Group like-for-like growth is a weighted average of the country like-for-like growths based on store numbers as described in Note (2) above.

DP Eurasia achieved strong operational growth in the year, with a further 41 stores added to the store portfolio.  The Group increased its system sales by 21.8% year-on-year, driven by a combination of like-for-like sales growth and store openings.

The Turkish operations' system sales, representing 62% of Group system sales, increased by 14.9%.  Despite the slow start to the year due to the lingering effects of the 2018 macro volatility, the Group achieved 13.1% like-for-like growth in Turkey, mainly attributable to the strategies that were undertaken in sales and marketing.  The "Dürümos" wrap launch, celebrity endorsed advertising campaigns and cluster-based pricing combined with the rapidly improving macroeconomic parameters in the second half of the year drove growth.  As a result of the volatile situation in the first half of the year, a total of 17 stores were opened in the Turkish segmentActive management and optimisation of the Turkish estate, which is ordinary course of business for the Group, continued in 2019.  26 stores were transferred from corporate to franchisee ownership, with an additional eight transfers in the opposite direction.

The Russian operations' system sales, representing 37% of Group system sales, increased by 34.8% (17.5% based on RUB).  This increase was driven primarily by store openings.  The Russian operations achieved like-for-like sales growth of 0.7% for the year, with growth affected by the increased competition especially in terms of aggregators and fast food players that are supported by them.  The Group intends to replicate the success it had turning around like-for-like growth in Turkey in early 2019 by deploying similar strategies in Russia in 2020, including celebrity endorsed advertising campaigns and cluster-based pricing.  The regional franchisee disagreements were resolved with the Group acquiring a majority of the stores in the regions.  A total of 22 stores were acquired in Russia during 2019, while the Group continued its refranchising efforts with 20 stores transferred from corporate to franchisee ownership.  Russian franchised stores amounted to 82, representing 40% of the Russian store portfolio.

The Group's like-for-like growth continues to be driven mainly by the performance of its online ordering platforms.  Online delivery system sales as a share of delivery system sales reached 70% for the year, which represents a 9.1 percentage point increase on a year-on-year basis.

In Turkey, online system sales like-for-like growth for the period was 32.6%, as a result of which online delivery system sales as a share of delivery system sales reached 64.2% for the period, a 9.8 percentage point increase from a year ago, aided also by an increase in volumes through the aggregator.

In Russia, online system sales like-for-like growth for the period was 15.4%, as a result of which online delivery system sales as a share of delivery system sales reached 82.0% for the period, a 5.9 percentage point increase from a year ago.

Online system sales continued to outpace the overall system sales growth at 39.8% for the Group.  Turkish online system sales grew by 33.5%, while Russian online system sales grew by 49.0% (29.9% based on RUB).

Revenue

Group revenue grew by 14.4% to TRY 980.2 million.  Turkish segment revenue grew by 15.4% to TRY 559.3 million, while Russian segment revenue grew by 13.1% to reach TRY 420.9 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

The Board maintains that adjusted EBITDA is the most relevant indicator of the Group's profitability at this stage of its development.  The Group has adopted IFRS 16 from 1 January 2019 but has not restated comparatives for the 2018 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transition provisions in the standard, the Group has applied the modified retrospective method for adoption.  As such, the Board believes that analysing the adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) serves as a better comparative for the prior period.

The Group's adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) grew by 12.6% to TRY 124.5 million.  Adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) for the Turkish segment, which includes the Azerbaijani and Georgian businesses, was TRY 108.7 million, a year-on-year increase of 12.6%, and adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) for the Russian segment was TRY 24.5 million, a year-on-year increase of 2.7% (a decrease of 10.3% based on RUB).  Additionally, costs relating to our Dutch corporate expenses (excluding those that relate to our initial public offering) reduced adjusted EBITDA by TRY 8.7 million in 2019.  The comparable adverse effect of this item was TRY 9.8 million in 2018.

In 2019, the Group's adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) margin as a percentage of system sales was 9.1% compared to 9.8% in 2018.  The main reasons for the decrease were the reduction in the Russian segment margin and the mix effect associated with the Russia segment becoming a larger part of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16) margin as a percentage of system sales for the Turkish segment (including Azerbaijan and Georgia) recorded an immaterial decrease to 12.5% from 12.8% as the Group was successful in preserving margins.

The Russian segment margin decreased to 4.9% from 6.4%.  The main reason for the decrease is the lower like-for-like growth in Russia due to increased competition and the longer than expected ramp up times in regional stores.  The Group changed its beverage supplier in Q3 2019 and began testing on one of the aggregator platforms in Q4 2019, where it is generating incremental sales.  The Board continues to remain confident in the medium- and long-term potential of the Russian market for DP Eurasia.

Adjusted Net Income

For the year ended 31 December 2019, adjusted net income (excluding IFRS 16) was TRY 2.9 million.  The increased financial expenses (excluding IFRS 16) were offset by the increase in operating profit (excluding IFRS 16).  The increase in tax expense (excluding IFRS 16) was more than offset by the increase in foreign exchange gains (excluding IFRS 16), resulting in a positive adjusted net income (excluding IFRS 16).  Despite not having any hard currency denominated loans, the Group recorded a foreign exchange gain of TRY 6.8 million due to the intragroup loans made from Turkey to Russia versus a foreign exchange loss of TRY 18.8 million in the previous year.

Capital expenditure and Cash conversion

The Group incurred TRY 106.8 million of capital expenditure in 2019.  The Turkish segment capital expenditure was TRY 37.2 million and the Russian segment capital expenditures amounted to TRY 69.6 million (RUB 800 million).  The Russian segment capital expenditure was higher than previous guidance due to the acquisition of franchised stores in the regions.

Cash conversion, defined as (adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16)- capital expenditure)/adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16)) for the period was 14.2% (2018: 28.5%) for the Group and 65.8% (2018: 61.9%) for the Turkish segment. The Russian segment had negative cash conversion as it is in a period of rapid expansion relative to its size.

Adjusted net debt and Leverage

Excluding the impact of IFRS 16, the Group's adjusted net debt at 31 December 2019 was TRY 226.5 million.  Following the refinancing of its Euro denominated loans in Russia with a Rouble denominated bank facility in 2018, the Group does not carry any hard currency denominated loans on its balance sheet.  In 2019, the Group switched a portion of its Rouble denominated bank loans to Turkish Lira denominated bank loans to align the currency of its bank loans more closely with the currency breakdown of its EBITDA.  As a result, at 31 December 2019, 52% of the Group's bank borrowings were denominated in Turkish Liras, compared to 13% a year ago, while the remainder is denominated in Roubles.

The Group continues its prudent and conservative approach to debt and its leverage ratio (defined as adjusted net debt (excluding IFRS 16)/adjusted EBITDA (excluding IFRS 16)) was 1.8x as at 31 December 2019 (2018: 1.4x).

The main reasons for the increase in the Group's indebtedness were the unusually high interest rates in Turkey during the first three quarters of 2019, RUB's appreciation against the TRY and the extra capital expenditure incurred for the acquisition of the regional franchised stores.  Currently, more than 90% of the Group's Turkish Lira denominated bank loans have fixed interest rates for 2020 as the Group looks to take advantage of the relatively lower interest rates currently available.

NOTE 2 -   BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

2.1  Principles of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the parent company, DP Eurasia N.V. and its subsidiaries for the year ended at 31 December 2019. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company (the "acquisition date").

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Group on the basis set out in sections below. The financial results of the subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group or deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

 

Subsidiaries are all companies over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity.

 

The subsidiaries fully consolidated, the proportion of ownership interest and the effective interest of the Group in these subsidiaries as of 31 December 2019 are disclosed in Note 1.

 

The result of operations of subsidiaries acquired or sold during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the acquisition date or until the date of sale.

 

The statements of financial position and statements of comprehensive income of the subsidiaries are consolidated on a line-by-line basis and the carrying value of the investment held by the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated against the related shareholders' equity. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

 

Consolidation of foreign subsidiaries

 

Financial statements of subsidiaries operating in foreign countries are prepared in the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate. Assets and liabilities in financial statements prepared according to the Group's accounting policies are translated into the Group's presentation currency, Turkish Liras, from the foreign exchange rate at the statement of financial position date whereas income and expenses are translated into TRY at the average foreign exchange rate. Exchange differences arising from the translation are included in the "currency translation differences" under shareholders' equity.

 

The foreign currency exchange rates used in the translation of the foreign operations within the scope of consolidation are as follows:

                      31 December 2019          31 December 2018 

                                                                       Period  Period  Period  Period

Currency                                                           End  Average  End  Average

 

Euros                                                             6.6506  6.3484  6.0280                 5.6751

Russian Roubles                                         0.0955  0.0872  0.0753                   0.0760                                                                                               

 

 

2.2  Functional and presentation currency

 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency").

 

The consolidated financial statements are presented in TRY, which is the Group's presentation currency.

 

NOTE 3 - SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The business operations of the Group are organised and managed with respect to geographical positions of its operations. The information regarding the business activities of the Group as of 31 December 2019 and 2018 comprise the performance and the management of its Turkish and Russian operations and head office.

 

The Group has two business segments, determined by management according to the information used for the evaluation of performance and the allocation of resources, the Turkish and Russian operations. Other operations are composed of corporate expenses of Dutch companies. These segments are managed separately because they are affected by the economic conditions and geographical positions in terms of risks and returns.

The group applied IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade, lease and other receivables based on historical losses. The Group analysed the impact of IFRS 9 and the historical losses that were incurred in 2019 also impacted the expected credit losses going forward, resulting in an additional TRY 606 recorded as provision for doubtful receivables. The Group also assessed whether the historic pattern would change materially in the future. The expected credit loss applied per aging bucket is shown as below:

 

  Not due

  0-30 days

  31-90 days

  91-180 days

  181-360 days

NOTE 17 - TAX ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND TAX EXPENSE

 

Corporate tax

 

The Group is subject to taxation in accordance with the tax regulations and the legislation effective in the countries in which the Group companies operate. Therefore, provision for taxes, as reflected in the consolidated financial statements, has been calculated on a separate-entity basis.

 

The Netherlands

 

Dutch tax legislation does not permit a Dutch parent company and its foreign subsidiaries to file a consolidated Dutch tax return. Dutch resident companies are taxed on their worldwide income for corporate income tax purposes at a statutory rate of 25%. No further taxes are payable on this profit unless the profit is distributed.

 

Services incurred by Dutch parent companies may generally be divided into two kinds of services being group services for which costs are incurred for the economic and commercial benefit of subsidiaries and shareholder services for which costs are incurred for activities provided in the capacity of the shareholder. All costs incurred by the Company are shareholder services (costs incurred for activities provided in the capacity of shareholder) and not group services (costs incurred for the economic or commercial benefit of subsidiaries).

 

Since shareholder services are not for the benefit of any one specific subsidiary, it is not required to re-charge these fees or costs to a subsidiary or to subsidiaries.

 

If certain conditions are met, income derived from foreign subsidiaries is tax exempted in the Netherlands under the rules of the Dutch participation exemption. However, certain costs such as acquisition costs are not deductible for Dutch corporate income tax purposes. Furthermore, in some cases the interest payable on loans to affiliated companies is non-deductible.

 

When income derived by a Dutch company is subject to taxation in the Netherlands as well as in other countries, generally avoidance of double taxation can be obtained under the extensive Dutch tax treaty network or under Dutch domestic law.

 

Dividend distributions are subject to 15% Dutch withholding tax. However, under the Netherlands' extensive tax treaty network, this rate can, in many cases, be significantly reduced if certain conditions are met.

 

 

 

Turkey

 

The Corporate Tax Law was amended by Law No, 5520, dated 13 June 2006. Most of the articles of the new Corporate Tax Law (No 5520) came into force on 1 January 2006. Corporate tax is payable at a rate of 22% (31 December 2018: 22%) on the total income of the Group after adjusting for certain disallowable expenses, exempt income and investment and other allowances (e.g. research and development allowance). No further tax is payable unless the profit is distributed (except for withholding tax at the rate of 19.8%, calculated on an exemption amount if an investment allowance is granted in the scope of Income Tax Law Temporary Article 61).

 

With the Law on Amendments to Certain Laws and Tax Laws and Decrees by the Courts dated
28 November 2017, the tax rate has been changed to 22% for corporate tax and advance tax of corporate earnings for the 2018, 2019 and 2020 taxation periods.

 

Companies are required to pay advance corporate tax quarterly at the rate of 22% on their corporate income in Turkey. Advance tax is payable by the 17th of the second month following each calendar quarter end. Advance tax paid by corporations is credited against the annual corporate tax liability. If, despite offsetting, there remains a paid advance tax amount, it may be refunded or offset against other liabilities to the government.

 

Russia

 

Income taxes have been provided for in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with legislation enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The income tax charge comprises current tax and deferred tax and is recognised in profit or loss for the year, except if it is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity because it relates to transactions that are also recognised, in the same or a different period, in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

 

Current tax is the amount expected to be paid to, or recovered from, the taxation authorities in respect of taxable profits or losses for the current and prior periods. Taxable profits or losses are based on estimates if financial statements are authorised prior to filing relevant tax returns. Taxes other than on income are recorded within operating expenses as established in Chapter 25 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Corporate tax is payable at a rate of 20% (31 December 2018: 20%) as identified in Article 247 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation Special rules may apply in cases where a different from 20% tax rate is used.

 

Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method for tax loss carry forwards and temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with the initial recognition exemption, deferred taxes are not recorded for temporary differences on initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction other than a business combination if the transaction, when initially recorded, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. Deferred tax balances are measured at tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, which are expected to apply to the period when the temporary differences will reverse, or the tax loss carry forwards will be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets recognition of Fidesrus

 

Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Various factors are considered to assess the probability of the future utilisation of deferred tax assets, including past operating results, operational plan, expiration of tax losses carried forward, and tax planning strategies. If actual results differ from these estimates or if these estimates must be adjusted in future periods, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows may be negatively affected. In the event that the assessment of future utilisation of deferred tax assets must be reduced, this reduction will be recognised in the income statement.

 

Based on the change in the tax code in the Russian Federation after 31 December 2015, previously applied limitation on carry forward tax losses for a ten-year period has been abolished and any losses incurred since 2007 will be carried forward until fully recognised.

 

Domino's Russia recognizes tax assets for the tax losses carried forward to the extent that the realisation of the related tax benefit through the future taxable profits is probable. Domino's Russia recognise deferred income tax assets arising from tax losses, tax discounts and other temporary differences with the estimates and assumptions relying on Domino's Russia management's five-years business plan and potential growth opportunities in Russia.

NOTE 18 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

According to an amendment to the Sberbank Loan Agreement signed by the Group's Russian subsidiary and Sberbank, the Company and its Turkish subsidiary were required to sign the amendment as guarantors by 27 February 2020. At 20 March 2020, the deadline to meet this requirement has been extended by Sberbank to 30 April 2020. The Group expects no difficulty in meeting this requirement.

 

We see the potential for a prolonged period of uncertainty following the COVID-19 worldwide outbreak and related market volatility, which have had relatively little impact on our business operations year to date. Currently, our stores are open and operating as normal with the exception that customers are not able to eat-in in our Turkish stores (although our delivery and take-away businesses continue as normal). Future adverse impacts from the COVID-19 outbreak may include, but are not limited to, employees contracting the disease, difficulty in recruiting new employees, decrease in demand for our products, reduced store operating hours, temporary bans imposed by government on eat-in and/or take-away services, store closures for an unspecified period of time and the Group not being able to perform its obligations under the Master Franchise Agreements. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, its ability to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

We have no indication whether governmental measures will have an effect in preventing a further spread of the disease around the world and therefore the duration of the pandemic. If the pandemic and its impact on the business last for a protracted period it is likely to have a more detrimental effect on the financial performance of the Group. The Group has taken proactive measures to ensure that our customers and employees continue to be safe. The Group has already established an internal task force to ensure that the supply chain is managed, critical inventory is available, and restaurants remain adequately staffed.  We appreciate that the Turkish government has indicated its preparedness to support companies and encourage banks to maintain access to credit facilities so as to assist the corporate sector manage through the crisis and maintain employment.
