  • Transportation EBITDA in Q4 2017/18 included an impairment provision for doubtful debt and a cumulative deferred

tax charge at SAGT.

  • Property EBITDA in Q4 2017/18 included a one-off revenue recognition at Rajawella Holdings Limited on the sale of

leasehold rights and lower fair value gains on investment in 2018/19.

  • The performance for the quarter also included an exchange loss at the Holding Company as a result of the appreciation
  • f the Rupee, in comparison to an exchange gain recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017/18.

Supermarkets - overview

▪ The Q4 FY2019 same store sales were driven by the same store footfall growth for the quarter, although the average basket vales were impacted by the current economic conditions

▪ Profitability margins were impacted by the cost of expanding and

  • perating new stores coupled with the one-off cost associated with

rebranding and refitting stores ▪ The blended margins in the ensuing year are expected to improve as a result of the benefit of a larger base of existing outlets showing an improvement in the performance. However, there may be a certain dilutive effect on margins due to the opening of new outlets

Impact analysis: Easter Sunday attacks 2019

▪ Sri Lanka witnessed a series of coordinated attacks on Easter Sunday, 21 April 2019, which resulted in a death toll of over 250 people and injured over 500 individuals. ▪ The attacks targeted several religious establishments and three city hotels including “Cinnamon Grand Colombo”; the flagship city hotel property of the JKH Group. The damages sustained to the hotel were limited to the “Taprobane” restaurant and the surrounding vicinity. ▪ The hotel commenced accepting new bookings soon after the incident while its restaurants were opened to the public from 30 April 2019 onwards. ▪ The tourism industry witnessed cancellations particularly given adverse travel advisories from key source markets within a few days of the incident. ▪ However, the safety and security measures are currently confirmed to be in place by the Authorities. ▪ Subsequent to the the initial cancellations, forward bookings of the Group’s hotels are already witnessing a pick-up.

Easter Sunday attacks: recovery seen to be in 12-18 months

▪ Studies of other travel destinations that were impacted by similar terrorism incidents indicate that destinations typically require 12 to 18 months to revert to pre-incident levels. ▪ Popular destinations which were affected by acts of terrorism such as Bali, Mumbai, Paris and Brussels have indicated a recovery in less than 18 months.

Easter Sunday attacks: recovery and way forward

25

▪ The GoSL has proactively initiated a range of measures and concessions to help the revival of the tourism industry.: ▪ Implement a public relations campaign to curtail the negative global media coverage whilst working towards the removal of adverse travel advisories for key tourist markets. ▪ A one-year moratorium on loans taken by the tourism related businesses. ▪ A proposed amendment to the Value Added Tax (VAT) for hotel and tour operators. ▪ The Group re-evaluated its short term plans for recovery of the Leisure businesses, particularly in the city hotels. Given the anticipated reduction in arrivals, particularly in the next 3 months, which is a relatively lower occupancy period. The mitigatory strategies for the immediate short term are as follows: ▪ Engage the domestic market to boost occupancy in the short term. ▪ Initiate marketing and outreach efforts once travel advisories on key tourist markets are removed. ▪ Develop agile cost structures within the hotel properties to remain flexible in managing short term operations costs. ▪ Critical evaluation of operating models to ensure optimum operating costs whilst maintaining the sustenance of the brand and service standards.
