Mariella Burani Fashion Group registers 7.9% growth
November 15, 2008 (Italy)

The Board of Directors of Mariella Burani Fashion Group Spa approved the consolidated financial statements for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 which reflect:

• Revenues of €562.2 million (+7.9%) from €520.9 million in 9M 2007.
• EBITDA of € 106.6 million (+76%) vs. €60.6 million in 9M 2007.
• EBIT of € 91.5 million (+117.2%) vs. €42.1 million in 9M 2007.
• Pretax income of €65.4 million (+ 201.2%) vs. € 21.7 million in 9M 2007.
• Net Financial Position (Debt) of € 174.5 million, vs. € 260.6 million at June 30, 2008, that reflects the sale of 49% of APBags to 3i as well as the consolidation of the Net Debt of Finduck, resulting in a optimal consolidated debt/equity ratio at September 30, 2008 of 0.41.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS - 9M 2008:
Consolidated revenues increased 7.9% over the prior year period from € 520.9 million to € 562.2 million reflecting the acquisition of Finduck, the capital gain realised on the sale of 49% of AP Bags to 3i, strong growth realised by the Group’s Leather Goods subsidiary (Antichi Pellettieri), partially offset by the sale of certain businesses in the prior year:

• The Apparel division was negatively impacted by the deconsolidation of the Group’s multi-brand retail division,
• The Leather Goods division (Antichi Pellettieri) realised 44.8% revenue growth during the period reflecting the first time consolidation of Finduck and strong organic revenue growth from the footwear and handbags division, with Baldinini footwear and accessory collections and Coccinelle and Braccialini handbag and accessory collections performing particularly well,
• The Jewellery division realised 21.1% revenue growth during the period, benefiting from the Rosato jewellery collections, particularly in emerging markets,
• the Digital Fashion division continues to expand and reflected 44% revenue growth during the period,
• Revenues from third party licenses grew by 29.6% during the period, while
• Revenues in emerging markets, currently representing 34,4% of Group sales, increased by 17% during the period.

Ebitda reached €106.6 million for the period (+76%) vs. € 60.6 million in 9M 2007, reflecting an Ebitda margin of 19% (vs. 11.6% for the same period in 2007). Ebitda growth is attributed to the first time contribution of Finduck, the net capital gain realised on the sale of 49% of AP Bags to 3i, and to the Group’s positive sales mix, that reflects:

• Growth in revenues generated from the Leather Goods and Fashion Jewellery divisions, accounting for 65.2% of revenues in 9M 2008;
• Export sales, representing over 63.2% of 9M 2008 revenues with emerging markets generating 34.4%; revenues generated by the Group in the US and Japan are limited to 5.5% of the Group’s revenues;
• Own brands which generated 84.2% of revenues;
• Direct distribution channels that generate 60.5% of revenues with 23.1% generated from DOS and Franchisees.

Ebit increased to €91.5 million (+117.2%) from € 42.1 million of the same period 2007. Pretax income increased to € 65.4 million (+201.2%) for 9M 2008 vs. € 21.7 million in 9M 2007.

Net Financial Position (Debt) of € 174.5 million, vs. € 260.6 million at June 30, 2008, reflecting the sale of 49% of APBags to 3i as well as the consolidation of the Net Debt of Finduck, resulting in a optimal consolidated debt/equity ratio at September 30, 2008 of 0.41.

OUTLOOK:
As witnessed in the results, the accessible luxury goods market continues to offer MBFG numerous opportunities and the Group is benefiting from its established position in this market segment as well as its consolidated presence in emerging markets, a key growth driver. In addition, the Group’s presence in the USA and Japan, today considered higher risk markets, is limited to 5% of MBFG’s total revenues.

The positive performance in the first nine months of the year, the encouraging sell-out statistics of the Autumn/Winter 2008-2009 collections, combined with the contribution of Finduck Srl and the benefits of our strategic partnerships, give management confidence in the near and long terms prospects for the business.

Royal Chie collection fusion of elegance & eco-friendly
November 15, 2008 (Japan)

For 2008-09 Royal Chie presents a collection that is a fusion between elegance and chemical technology in an eco-friendly format. A collaboration between fur, an eco-friendly material, and the ecological material created by ECO CIRCLE, the world’s most advanced recycling system from Teijin Fiber Limited, the elegant and innovative Royal Chie collection was launched in New York, Tokyo, Fukuoka, Matsuyama and Kumamoto. The designs combine ecological materials manufactured by Teijin Fibers Limited of the Teijin Group, ECO RECTAS and luxury furs.

With her longstanding interest in the global environment, designer Chie Imai of Royal Chie has won international recognition for her policy of not disrupting natural ecosystems and only using the highest quality farmed furs. Ms. Imai conceived this eco-friendly fashion collection after meeting with Teijin Limited who expressed the hope to create awareness of their closed-loop recycling system for polyester fiber around the world.

Chie Imai realized that an initiative with a strong concern for the environment resonated with her and the new collection was conceived. Chie Imai is now challenging the fusion of two worlds that have never before met – fur and ecology. The result is furs that are part of the “green movement”.

They highlight Chie Imai’s exquisite design aesthetic paired with most technologically advanced waterproof and breathable fabric in bold jewel tones such as teal, crimson and mustard mixed with luxurious fur trims and embellishments. Teijin Fiber Limited, the core company of the Teijin Group's polyester fiber operation, has developed the world’s first closed-loop recycling system using chemical recycling technology for polyester.

Collaborating with some 80 participating apparel manufacturers and sporting gear manufacturers based in Japan and overseas, Teijin Fibers Limited provides product development, collection and recycling. In this system, the polyester is chemically decomposed at the molecular level and recycled in products that are of the same quality as products produced directly from petroleum.

As a result, ECO CIRCLE has found a way around the issue of inferior quality in recycled items. Since the products can be repeatedly recycled, it is possible to conserve oil and eliminate waste. Compared to polyester products produced from petroleum, this process reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions by approximately 80%.

Chie Imai launched her fur collection in Fukuoka in 1982. At that time, the accepted colors for fur were black, brown and white but Chie Imai wanted furs that were lightweight and vividly colored. She searched everywhere but could not find such furs so she decided to make them herself. In order to bring out beautiful hues, she dyed the furs in vivid colors, and cut them by hand into small squares, which she arranged into color schemes.

She then carefully patched the squares together to create originalpieces. This was the beginning of “Mosaique” de Chie, colorful and lightweight modern furs that can be folded. Since 1982, she has presented annual collections in Tokyo and Fukuoka.

In 1999 she became the first Asian designer invited to open the New York Fur Collection whose participants include Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent and Oscar de la Renta. Since 2001 she has expanded the collection show to five cities in addition to Tokyo. She has been awarded commendations from the Asian-American Advisory Council and New York City for the fine artistry of her work.

The Royal Chie Collection by Chie Imai uses only farmed fur. As fur can be recycled, it is possible to turn a well-loved piece into a new product. A fur of durable and high quality can be treasured for years and passed from parent to child; it is not something you wear once or twice and toss, and it never becomes waste. Since the ultimate destination of fur is back into the ground, it is transformed into new energy in the natural environmental cycle.

November 11, 2008 (India)
