TALLINNA SADAM STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 28.02.2005
AS TALLINNA SADAM (PORT OF TALLINN) ECONOMIC RESULTS 2004, UNAUDITED
SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE RESULTS
During the second half of 2004 18.07 million tons of cargo passed through the
harbours of the Port of Tallinn, which is 0.9 million tons (or 5.2%) more than
in the same period of 2003. The total cargo volume passing through the
harbours of the Port of Tallinn in 2004 was 37.42 million tons, which is 2.5
million tons (or 7.2%) more than in the year 2003. The total cargo volume of
bigger Baltic Sea east coast ports in 2004 was 299 million tons, a growth of
17.8%. Thus, the growth of cargo volume in the Port of Tallinn fell below the
overall market growth in the region and that was primarily due to the powerful
start of Russian new port projects.
During the second half of 2004, 3.94 million passengers passed through the
harbours of the Port of Tallinn, which is 0.67 million passengers (or 20.6%)
more than in the same period of 2003. The total number of passengers passing
through the harbours of the Port of Tallinn in 2004 was 6.74 million, which is
0.88 million (or 14.9%) more than in the year 2003.
The consolidated sales revenue of the Port of Tallinn for the second half of
2004 was EEK 511 million (EUR 32.6 million), which is EEK 49 million (EUR 3.1
million) more than the sales revenue for the same period last year. The total
sales revenue for 2004 was EEK 1 062 million (EUR 67.9 million), an increase
of 10.5%. The increase in sales revenue was primarily due to increase in port
dues and passenger dues, which grew by EEK 47 million (EUR 3.0 million or 9%)
and EEK 35 million (EUR 2.2 million or 38%) respectively.
The consolidated operating expenses (excl. other expenses) for the second half
of 2004 comprised EEK 286 million (EUR 18.2 million), a decrease of EEK 10
million (EUR 0.7 million) compared to the same period of 2003. The total
operating expenses for 2004 were EEK 523 million (EUR 33.4 million), a
decrease of EEK 34 million (EUR 2.1 million). The decrease in operating
expenses was mainly due to decreases in depreciation, sponsorship and
marketing expenses, salaries, representation expenses and other operating
expenses.
The consolidated net profit for the second half of 2004 was EEK 99 million
(EUR 6.3 million), which was EEK 58 million (EUR 3.7 million) less than for
the same period of 2003 – primarily due to an increase in dividend income tax
expense in the second half of 2004. The total net profit for 2004 was EEK 398
million (EUR 25.4 million), an increase of EEK 167 million (EUR 10.7 million).
The increase in net profit was primarily due to increased sales revenue and
decreased operating expenses, the effect of which was somewhat decreased by an
increase in interest expenses due to increased borrowings. In addition, the
expenses incurred by the Port of Tallinn for the financing of ice-breaking
works by the Estonian Maritime Administration in the amount of EEK 119.3
million (EUR 7.6 million) shown as other expenses, decreased the net profit
for 2003.
During the second half of 2004 a total investments into fixed assets in the
amount of EEK 313 million (EUR 20.0 million) and during 2004 EEK 1.04 billion
(EUR 66.6 million) were made. Majority of the investments were related to
construction of new quays with supplementary infrastructure in Muuga Harbour
and Paldiski South Harbour. In Muuga Harbour the biggest projects were the
construction of a coal terminal, a quay for container ships, railways and
viaducts. In Paldiski South Harbour new land area for port expansion was
purchased, reconstruction of quay no.6 and dredging of port aquatory was
performed.
On 21 January 2005, the Supervisory Board of Port of Tallinn resolved to
establish a subsidiary with the share capital of EEK 49 thousand (EUR 2.56
thousand). The subsidiary shall provide heat and water, sewage supply and
operate respective infrastructure.
