Altdorf, 27 April 2020 - Orascom Development Holding (ODH) successfully executed on its strategy, with continued strong operational and financial results for the year 2019. Revenues reached CHF 453.3 million in FY 2019, a growth of 33.2% compared to CHF 340.3 million in FY 2018 and surpassing the revenue target of CHF 400.0 million by 13.3%. Gross profit increased by 4.9% to CHF 114.1 million (FY 2018: CHF 108.7 million) and adj. EBITDA increased by 5.7% to CHF 74.3 million (FY 2018: CHF 70.3 million). EBITDA increased by 19.1% to CHF 55.5 million in FY 2019 (FY 2018 (Restated): CHF 46.6 million). ODH net loss decreased by 31.8% to CHF 31.3 million (FY 2018 (Restated): CHF 45.9 million). The main contributors to the bottom-line losses include: (i) the ODH's share of losses (CHF 15.7 million) from Andermatt Swiss Alps (ASA), the Group's largest associate and (ii) prudence-related to additional one-time impairments (CHF 21.5 million). These losses are non-cash items with no adverse impact on the Company's cash flows.

ODH has concluded an agreement with SIX Exchange Regulation AG with regard to accounting errors made in the 2018 annual financial statements in connection with the disposal of the "Royal" subsidiary. Instead of transferring the revaluation reserve in the amount of CHF 8.5 million related to the reclassification of the "Royal" property from owner occupied to investment property, the amount was erroneously reclassified to profit or loss for the financial year 2018. As part of the agreement, the Company has undertaken to correct this error in its 2019 annual financial statements published today, resulting, among other, in an increase of the loss for the financial year 2018 from CHF 37.4 million to CHF 45.9 million and a reduction of the earnings per share from CHF (1.05) to CHF (1.26). The cash position of the Company and total equity reported in the 2018 annual financial statements were not affected. In addition, the Company has agreed to make a donation of CHF 30,000 to the IFRS Foundation.

It is also worth noting that FY 2018 figures included Tamweel Group, Citadel Azur, Royal and Club Azur Hotels that were disposed during the financial year 2018. When figures of FY 2019 are normalised (pro-forma) for the revenues of the disposals, FY 2019 revenues would have increased by 43.9% to CHF 453.3 million (FY 2018: CHF 315.1 million); adj. EBITDA would have increased by 30.8% to CHF 74.3 million (FY 2018: CHF 56.8 million); and net loss would have decreased by 40.6% vs. CHF 52.7 million in FY 2018. The Group ended the year on a solid cash stance with a cash balance of CHF 186.0 million. We successfully placed our first five-year bond amounting to CHF 100 million with a coupon of 3.25%. Receivables continued to increase reaching a balance of CHF 154.7 million, a growth of 11.6% versus same period last year. Net debt stood at CHF 243.9 million by end of FY 2019 and cashflow from operations increased by 44.0% to CHF 80.9 million (FY 2018: CHF 56.2 million).

Group Hotels: Increased revenues, enhanced value, and product appeal
With efforts focused on promoting quality standards and product appeal for accelerated sales, the Group's Hotels achieved substantial growth in revenues and operating profits backed by the positive performance of Egypt and Oman tourism industry. In FY 2019, hotel revenues increased by 7.9%, from CHF 156.5 million in FY 2018 to CHF 168.8 million. Despite losses related to the appreciation of the Egyptian pound against foreign currencies, the hotel division reported a 4.9% growth in GOP y-o-y, from CHF 59.5 million in FY 2018 to CHF 62.4 million. The segment's EBITDA reached CHF 45.4 million in FY 2019. The EBITDA of the hotels were impacted by three main items: 1) FX Losses due to the appreciation of the Egyptian pound against foreign currencies. 2) The shorter Omani Khareef season which affected our hotels margins and 3) Royal & Club Azur hotels in Makadi were rented out during 2018 whereby their rent value was pure EBITDA hitting the bottom line, until they were sold in Q4 2018. Accordingly, when we normalize FY 2018 figures from the revenues of the disposals (Citadel Azur, Royal Azur, and Club Azur hotels), FY 2019 segment revenues would have increased by 12.5% compared to the same period last year.

Group Real Estate: sales target of the year successfully achieved
Net real estate sales reached CHF 483.9 million, a growth of 140.3% year-over-year, surpassing FY 2018 record of CHF 201.4 million and FY 2019 target, which ranged between CHF 445 to 470 million. Growth in new sales was driven by the strong demand across all destinations. The increase was driven by two factors: through a 102.4% increase in the number of contracted units to 1,698 vs. 839 units in 2018 and also through increasing the average selling prices per m² across all destinations. O West continued to be the largest contributor to new sales (52.8% of sales), followed by El Gouna (26.6% of sales), Oman (8.8% of sales), Lustica Bay (6.6% of sales) and Makadi Heights (4.9% of sales). Real Estate revenues increased by 83.6% to CHF 232.5 million (FY 2018: CHF 126.6 million) on the back of the increased construction progress across all destinations, in addition to the recognized land portion for the sold units in O West. EBITDA continued to increase and recorded a 76.5% growth to CHF 75.2 million in FY 2019 (FY 2018: CHF 42.6 million). Total deferred revenue from real estate that is yet to be recognized till 2023 increased by 108.3% to reach CHF 490.8 million in FY 2019 vs. CHF 235.6 million in FY 2018 and total real estate portfolio receivables also increased by 108.8% to CHF 611.7 million in FY 2019 compared to CHF 293.0 million in FY 2018, supported by the strong year-over-year growth in new sales.

Group Destination Management: continued growth with scalability, more recurring revenues to the Group
The Destination Management segment continued to grow, securing more recurring revenue streams to the Group. Revenues increased by 39.9% to CHF 50.5 million in FY 2019 vs. CHF 36.1 million in FY 2018. The notable increase in revenues came as a result of the implementation of a rich calendar of events in the different destinations and improving the quality and profitability of our services and amenities. In 2019, more destinations were approaching their critical mass targets, starting off with Oman and then Montenegro.

Subsequent Events:

Changes in executive management team
It was with great sadness that ODH had to bid farewell to its CEO Khaled Bichara, who had suddenly passed away in a car accident on January 31, 2020. "We have lost a brilliant and beloved leader who personally touched the lives of so many of us during his time at the company. On behalf of our Board of Directors, management team and employees, we would like to extend our most heartfelt condolences and sympathy to Khaled's family", says Mr. Samih Sawiris who assumed the role of Executive Chairman as of February 4^th, 2020, to lead the Executive Management for an interim period until the appointment of a new CEO.

Samih Sawiris will lead and be assisted by an interim committee, which includes appointed members of the Board of Directors as well as members of Executive Management. In addition to Mr. Sawiris, the selected committee members are: Naguib S. Sawiris (Board member), Jürgen Fischer (Board member), Ashraf Nessim (Chief Financial Officer) and Abdelhamid Abouyoussef (member of the Executive Management). The role of the committee will be to (1) supervise and support management day to day, and (2) lead the appointment and onboarding of the new CEO.

Outlook 2020
The industry's prospects in much of the world have taken a dramatic turn because of COVID-19. Nevertheless, the health and well-being of all colleagues, guests, customers, and the communities in which ODH operates are the key priority and the company is taking all possible measures to secure a safe work and living environment. High hygiene and safety standards are in place at all destinations and offices, and the Group has implemented additional measures and precautions in line with guidelines from health authorities. ODH is confident in the resilience and capabilities of its teams to manage through the challenges that the industry currently faces. Our thoughts remain with the individuals and communities affected across the world as the public health response to COVID-19.

The necessary drastic measures undertaken by governments and countries worldwide, and the consistently changing situation amid Covid-19, makes it impossible to provide an accurate outlook on its ramifications on 2020 operational and financial results. Accordingly, the Group decided to abstain at the time being from providing full-year guidance on its 2020 results; however, we intend to provide an update of the evolving situation during all our quarterly results calls and market communications as needed.

It is important to note that ODH had passed through difficult and somehow similar situations before when it needed to act quickly and efficiently. We managed to overcome the hit from the Arab spring in 2011 and the Egyptian revolution in 2013 and still learned how to successfully operate with minimum OPEX. With this acquired knowhow, ODH was ready to respond effectively and quickly implement the necessary precautionary measures that enable us to reduce spending and preserve cash to the longest periods possible to ensure stability of the Group's destinations, in order to enable the destinations to resume their operations and planned investments once the business is back to meet the Group's planned strategic and financial targets.

The Group has a diversified portfolio of businesses, which includes Real estate, Hotels, Town management, Rental portfolio, and Land monetization. For FY 2019, the hotels revenue contribution was only 37% out of the total Group revenues decreasing from 46% for the FY 2018. The Group expects this percentage to continue to decrease in 2020, because of the increase in the revenue contribution from O West, in addition to the Group's focus of accelerating its land bank monetization, whereby, the Group has secured CHF 19.2 million of cash inflows through its school development agreements. The rapid execution of land monetization will help the Group to unlock its hidden land bank value to the market and will provide additional cash for speeding up the development of its destinations.

ODH remains committed to materially growing the Company and will actively appraise opportunities to make disciplined additions to the portfolio that will further bolster cash generation. "Our strategic ambitions remain clear - we will focus on generating cash, investing in opportunities, and returning capital to shareholders and we will be accelerating the monetization of our land bank moving forward", says Samih Sawiris. The Group has already identified specific land plots for the purpose of sale or sub-development of certain projects that might include - but are not limited to - new hotels, conference centers, schools, universities, hospitals, business parks and aqua parks. Facilities that are needed in everyday life and would be adding more value to the destinations, which will ultimately increase its livelihood and boost real estate sales further.

Taba Heights, Egypt
Taba heights witnessed a leap in its 2019 revenues following the commencement of a number of direct charter flights to Taba Airport and the increased allotments from European tour operators. This resulted in an increase in occupancy to 48% from only 33% in 2018. ARR reached CHF 35 (2018: CHF 26), and TRevPAR reached CHF 25 (2018: CHF 15). FY 2019 revenues increased by 46.6% from CHF 8.8 million to CHF 12.9 million in FY 2019, containing GOP losses at CHF 0.2 million close to a breakeven scenario. Mosaique, Strand, Bay View and Wekala hotels were operating at full capacity. Before the Covid-19 outbreak, the Group was anticipating an increase in tourist arrivals in Taba Heights in 2020, as several European countries had planned to increase charter flights to Taba airport after the German Authorities have removed the travel ban on Taba Airport. However, in March 2020, the main tour operating partner, one of the biggest in the East European market, suspended all existing and planned operation starting March 11 and through May 2020.

The Cove, UAE
The growing supply in Dubai hotels and the increased competition in Ras El Kheima, affected the hotel's occupancy levels, which witnessed a decline in demand in line with the overall trend in its competitive set. In FY 2019, the hotel reported a total revenue of CHF 27.0 million, and a GOP of CHF 9.6 million. However, the hotel remains one of the Group's most rewarding properties, contributing 15.4% of the Group's overall GOP. As of January 2020, Orascom Hotels Management took over the management of the hotel under a franchise agreement with Rotana Hotels & Resorts. Overall, the destination's total revenue reached CHF 29.1 million in FY 2019.
