ORIOR holds firm in challenging market environment

In a number of key product areas ORIOR increased its market share. In line with its overall strategy, ORIOR acquired a number of smaller companies which complement the product range and whose products were already largely distributed via ORIOR. Bolstered by this strengthening of its core business, its strong innovation and renewed management team, ORIOR is well placed to meet future challenges. >>>

ORIOR grows in a stagnant overall market and achieves a clear increase in profit
Zurich, 22 February 2011 ORIOR AG, one of Switzerland's leading producers of meat products and fresh convenience foods, achieved record revenues and a further improvement in profits in the 2010 financial year. In a largely stagnant food sector, revenues were 1 percent higher than in the previous year at CHF 505.5 million. The rise was exclusively due to organic growth. Despite continuing price pressure, ORIOR increased its EBITDA by 3.8 percent to CHF 54.2 million, which pushed the EBITDA margin up to 10.7 percent. Profit for the year went up 12.4 percent to CHF 26.9 million. The Board of Directors is proposing to the forthcoming Annual General Meeting that it approve a dividend of CHF 1.90 per share, representing a distribution ratio of approximately 42 percent. Thanks to the inflow of funds from earnings and last year's IPO, ORIOR was also able to strengthen its balance sheet significantly. Current liabilities were cut from CHF 103.7 million to CHF 88.6 million, while equity rose substantially from CHF 69.0 million to CHF 170.3 million, giving an equity ratio of 43.8 percent. CEO Rolf U. Sutter (56), who over the last twelve years has built ORIOR AG into one of the most successful food companies in Switzerland, and who led it to an IPO in April 2010, is handing over operational management to Remo Hansen (49), on 1 May 2011. Mr. Hansen is currently in charge of the Pastinella and Fredag competence centres and is a longstanding member of ORIOR Group's Management Board. Rolf U. Sutter is due to be elected Chairman at the constituting meeting of the Board of Directors that takes place after this year's AGM. >>>

ORIOR Group increases sales and profits
Zurich, 31 August 2010 ORIOR Group, catering primarily to retailers and food service professionals and successfully listed on the Swiss stock market since April of this year, generated record results in the first half of the 2010 fiscal year. Despite lower raw material prices and corresponding reductions in selling prices, the company managed to increase first-half sales by 1.6 percent y-o-y to a new record high of CHF 246.7 million. The positive trend in private consumption contributed to an even greater 4.4 percent increase in sales volumes. Despite growing pressure on prices, earnings growth outpaced the increase in sales and volumes: Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose by 5.8 percent to CHF 26.1 million, resulting in an EBITDA margin of 10.6 percent. EBIT increased by 6.7 percent to CHF 19.4 million and profit for the period rose by 3 percent to CHF 10.3 million despite non-recurring costs associated with the stock-market listing. The pleasing course of business during the first half of the year and the inflow of capital from going public had a positive impact on ORIOR's balance sheet. Net debt was reduced from CHF 121.1 million at the end of December 2009 to CHF 88.6 million while shareholders' equity nearly tripled to CHF 153.9 million, resulting in a solid equity ratio of 40.7 percent. >>>
