Operating performance for the third quarter of 2012
During the third quarter of 2012, Luxotticas growth trend continued at a steady pace. In an overall global macroeconomic environment that was increasingly challenging, Luxottica achieved positive results across all regions, delivering improved results for the eleventh straight quarter.
In the third quarter of 2012, the Groups net sales increased from Euro 1,523.8 million to Euro 1,783.5 million, up 17.0% (+6.7% at constant exchange rates2). In the first nine months, net sales grew by 15.7% (+8.2% at constant exchange rates2) to Euro 5,453.8 million (Euro 4,713.5 million during the same period in 2011).
The third quarter results confirm the Groups excellent performance, which testifies to Luxotticas commitment to serving its customers and consumers., commented Andrea Guerra, Chief Executive Officer of Luxottica.
We have generated a record positive free cash flow4 of Euro 271 million, permitting a further reduction in net debt and strengthening our balance sheet.
Both the Wholesale and Retail divisions have worked enthusiastically and with strong determination within all regions where the Group is present. It is important to note the strong continuous growth achieved in North America which exceeded our initial expectations, the acceleration in Western Europe (+9% in quarter), and the recovery in the Mediterranean region.
Investments in emerging markets continue to pay off. We are very satisfied with our operating margin results, which improved by 100 basis points at the Group level. We are confident that our balanced business model and sales momentum constitute an excellent base as we head towards the end of 2012 and will allow us to take advantage of future opportunities.
EBITDA for the third quarter of 2012 rose by 24.0% over the same period in 2011, increasing from Euro 276.0 million (on an adjusted basis)3,4 in 2011 to Euro 342.1 million in the current period. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA 3,4 for the first nine months of 2012 reached Euro 1,103.6 million, an increase over the Euro 911.1 million recorded for the same period in 2011.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2012 grew by 26.1% year-over-year, equalling Euro 248.9 million (Euro 197.4 million on an adjusted basis)3,4 The Groups operating margin increased from 13.0% (on an adjusted basis)3,4 in the same period of 2011 to 14.0% in the current quarter.
During the first nine months of the year, adjusted operating income3,4 amounted to Euro 839.8 million, up by 23.2% compared with Euro 681.6 million in the same period of 2011. The Groups adjusted operating margin3,4 therefore rose to 15.4% in the first nine months of 2012, from 14.5% during the same period in 2011.
Net income for the third quarter of 2012 increased to Euro 138.6 million (Euro 106.1 million on an adjusted basis3,4 in 2011), up 30.6%, resulting in EPS (earnings per share) of 0.30 Euros for the quarter (at an average Euro/US dollar exchange rate of 1.2502). EPS in US dollars was US$ 0.37 for the third quarter of 2012.
Strict control over working capital during the third quarter enabled Luxottica to accumulate a record positive free cash flow4 of Euro 271.0 million. This facilitated a reduction in net debt,4 which totalled Euro 1,887 million at September 30, 2012 (Euro 2,032 million at the end of 2011), and resulted in a net debt to adjusted EBITDA3,4 ratio of 1.4x at September 30, 2012.
Luxottica recorded solid and balanced growth during the third quarter of 2012 in both the Wholesale and Retail divisions.
Wholesale division
During the third quarter of 2012, the Wholesale division continued to achieve excellent results in terms of both net sales and profitability, while increasing its presence and exploiting opportunities in fast-growing regions.
Sales performance in key areas, such as North America and the emerging markets, stood out this quarter. Double-digit growth was recorded in China, Turkey, Mexico, India, Brazil and Eastern Europe. Excellent results were also achieved in Western Europe, with Nordic countries, France, Germany and the UK up double-digits in the quarter. Performance in Italy was slightly negative, while Spain returned to growth.
Wholesales strong results were driven by the success of our new collections, our ability to establish unique and long-term relationships with our customers and by consistently offering a best-in-class service. The strength of our brand portfolio is also at the root of this success, with double-digit growth in Ray-Ban, Oakley and the luxury segment.
The Wholesale divisions net sales rose to Euro 646.8 million from Euro 555.1 million in the third quarter of 2011 (+16.5% at current exchange rates and +10.7% at constant exchange rates2). On a nine-month basis, net sales were Euro 2,161.8 million, improving by 13.8% at current exchange rates (+10.3% at constant exchange rates2) as compared with Euro 1,900.2 million in the first nine months of 2011.
Operating income grew to Euro 124.8 million, compared with Euro 104.9 million during the third quarter of 2011. The operating margin grew from 18.9% in the third quarter of 2011 to 19.3% for the third quarter of 2012. In the first nine months of 2012, the operating margin was 23.4% (23.2% in the same period of 2011).
Retail division
During the third quarter of 2012, the Retail division recorded solid and well-balanced growth across all regions. Net sales equalled Euro 1,136.7 million (Euro 968.7 million in the third quarter of 2011), +17.3% year-over-year (+4.4% at constant exchange rates2).
During the first nine months of 2012, net sales were Euro 3,292.1 million, up 17.0% compared with Euro 2,813.3 million in the same period of 2011 (+6.9% at constant exchange rates2).
The Retail divisions operating income increased from Euro 127.4 million on an adjusted basis3,4 in the third quarter of 2011 to Euro 166.2 million (+30.5%). The operating margin amounted to 14.6%, up from 13.2% on an adjusted basis3,4 in the third quarter of 2011. The adjusted operating margin3,4 in the first nine months of 2012 was 14.0% (12.6% in the 2011 period).
In terms of comparable store sales5, the Retail division grew by 5.9% during the quarter.
The North American optical business also exhibited positive trends in the current period with LensCrafters recording an increase in comparable store sales5 of 2.5%.
Sunglass Hut, the Groups sun specialty chain that operates in a number of countries, once again delivered record results, with overall comparable store sales5 up 8.8%. Stellar performance was achieved in the United States (+8.4%) and Mexico, which recorded an increase in excess of 30% in comparable store sales4 as a result of investments made over the last few months.
In Australia, the reorganization that began in February 2012 led to an 8.5% increase in comparable store sales5 in the optical segment during the third quarter (+6.2% for the current nine-month period). The contribution of OPSM to these results was significant, accelerating in the quarter with growth of 12%.

Non-IAS/IFRS measures: Adjusted measures
In order to provide a supplemental comparison of current period results of operations to prior periods, we have adjusted for certain non-recurring transactions or events.
We have made such adjustments to the following measures: EBITDA, EBITDA margin, operating income, operating margin, net income and earnings per share.
For comparative purposes, management has adjusted each of the foregoing measures by excluding non-recurring OPSM reorganization costs of approximately 22 million.
In addition, we have made adjustments to fiscal year 2011 measures for comparative purposes as described in the footnotes to the tables that contain such fiscal year 2011 data.
The Company believes that these adjusted measures are useful to both management and investors in evaluating the Companys operating performance compared with that of other companies in its industry because they exclude the impact of non-recurring items that are not relevant to the Companys operating performance.
The adjusted measures referenced above are not measures of performance in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IAS/IFRS). We include these adjusted comparisons in this presentation in order to provide a supplemental view of operations that excludes items that are unusual, infrequent or unrelated to our ongoing core operations.
These adjusted measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for items appearing on our financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS. Rather, these non-IAS/IFRS measures should be used as a supplement to IAS/IFRS results to assist the reader in better understanding the operational performance of the Company. The Company cautions that these adjusted measures are not defined terms under IAS/IFRS and their definitions should be carefully reviewed and understood by investors. Investors should be aware that Luxottica Groups method of calculating these adjusted measures may differ from methods used by other companies.
The Company recognizes that there are limitations in the usefulness of adjusted comparisons due to the subjective nature of items excluded by management in calculating adjusted comparisons. We compensate for the foregoing limitation by using these adjusted measures as a comparative tool, together with IAS/IFRS measurements, to assist in the evaluation of our operating performance.
See the tables on the following pages for a reconciliation of the adjusted measures discussed above to their most directly comparable IAS/IFRS financial measures or, in the case of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, to EBITDA and EBITDA margin, respectively, which are also non-IAS/IFRS measures. For a discussion of EBITDA and EBITDA margin and a reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA margin to their most directly comparable IAS/IFRS financial measures, see the tables on the pages immediately following the reconciliation of the adjusted measures.

Non-IAS/IFRS measure: EBITDA and EBITDA margin
EBITDA represents net income before non-controlling interest, taxes, other income/expense, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA margin means EBITDA divided by net sales.
The Company believes that EBITDA is useful to both management and investors in evaluating the Companys operating performance compared with that of other companies in its industry. Our calculation of EBITDA allows us to compare our operating results with those of other companies without giving effect to financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending, which items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a companys business.
EBITDA and EBITDA margin are not measures of performance under International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IAS/IFRS).
We include them in this presentation in order to:
· improve transparency for investors;
· assist investors in their assessment of the Companys operating performance and its ability to refinance its debt as it matures and incur additional indebtedness to invest in new business opportunities;
· assist investors in their assessment of the Companys cost of debt;
· ensure that these measures are fully understood in light of how the Company evaluates its operating results and leverage;
· properly define the metrics used and confirm their calculation; and
· share these measures with all investors at the same time.
EBITDA and EBITDA margin are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for items appearing on our financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS. Rather, these non-IAS/IFRS measures should be used as a supplement to IAS/IFRS results to assist the reader in better understanding the operational performance of the Company. The Company cautions that these measures are not defined terms under IAS/IFRS and their definitions should be carefully reviewed and understood by investors. Investors should be aware that Luxottica Groups method of calculating EBITDA may differ from methods used by other companies. The Company recognizes that the usefulness of EBITDA has certain limitations, including:
· EBITDA does not include interest expense. Because we have borrowed money in order to finance our operations, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits and cash flows. Therefore, any measure that excludes interest expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not include depreciation and amortization expense. Because we use capital assets, depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits. Therefore, any measure that excludes depreciation and expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not include provision for income taxes. Because the payment of income taxes is a necessary element of our costs, any measure that excludes tax expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
· EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and
· EBITDA does not allow us to analyze the effect of certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect our net income or loss.
We compensate for the foregoing limitations by using EBITDA as a comparative tool, together with IAS/IFRS measurements, to assist in the evaluation of our operating performance and leverage.
See the table on the following page for a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable IAS/IFRS financial measure, as well as the calculation of EBITDA margin on net sales.

1 The adjusted figures exclude the following measures:
(a) an extraordinary gain of approximately 21 million (3 and 9 months ended September 30, 2011) and 19 million (for the year 2011) related to the acquisition, in 2009, of a 40% stake in Multiopticas Internacional;
(b) non-recurring costs related to Luxotticas 50th anniversary celebrations of approximately 12 million, including the adjustment relating to the grant of treasury shares to Group employees; and
(c) non-recurring restructuring and start-up costs in the Retail Division of approximately 11.8 million (3 and 9 months ended September 30, 2011) and 11.2 million (for the year 2011);
2 Non-recurring OPSM re-organization costs of approximately 9.6 million in 2011 and 21.7 million in 2012 are also excluded from adjusted figures.
Non-IAS/IFRS measure: Net Debt to EBITDA ratio
Net debt to EBITDA ratio: Net debt means the sum of bank overdrafts, current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt, less cash. EBITDA represents net income before non-controlling interest, taxes, other income/expense, depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that EBITDA is useful to both management and investors in evaluating the Companys operating performance compared with that of other companies in its industry. Our calculation of EBITDA allows us to compare our operating results with those of other companies without giving effect to financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending, which items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a companys business. The ratio of net debt to EBITDA is a measure used by management to assess the Companys level of leverage, which affects our ability to refinance our debt as it matures and incur additional indebtedness to invest in new business opportunities. The ratio also allows management to assess the cost of existing debt since it affects the interest rates charged by the Companys lenders.
EBITDA and ratio of net debt to EBITDA are not measures of performance under International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IAS/IFRS).
We include them in this presentation in order to:
· improve transparency for investors;
· assist investors in their assessment of the Companys operating performance and its ability to refinance its debt as it matures and incur additional indebtedness to invest in new business opportunities;
· assist investors in their assessment of the Companys cost of debt;
· ensure that these measures are fully understood in light of how the Company evaluates its operating results and leverage;
· properly define the metrics used and confirm their calculation; and
· share these measures with all investors at the same time.
EBITDA and ratio of net debt to EBITDA are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for items appearing on our financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS/IFRS. Rather, these non-IAS/IFRS measures should be used as a supplement to IAS/IFRS results to assist the reader in better understanding the operational performance of the Company. The Company cautions that these measures are not defined terms under IAS/IFRS and their definitions should be carefully reviewed and understood by investors. Investors should be aware that Luxottica Groups method of calculating EBITDA and the ratio of net debt to EBITDA may differ from methods used by other companies. The Company recognizes that the usefulness of EBITDA and the ratio of net debt to EBITDA as evaluative tools may have certain limitations, including:
· EBITDA does not include interest expense. Because we have borrowed money in order to finance our operations, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits and cash flows. Therefore, any measure that excludes interest expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not include depreciation and amortization expense. Because we use capital assets, depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate profits. Therefore, any measure that excludes depreciation and expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not include provision for income taxes. Because the payment of income taxes is a necessary element of our costs, any measure that excludes tax expense may have material limitations;
· EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
· EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs;
· EBITDA does not allow us to analyze the effect of certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect our net income or loss; and
· The ratio of net debt to EBITDA is net of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, thereby reducing our debt position.
Because we may not be able to use our cash to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, this measure may have material limitations. We compensate for the foregoing limitations by using EBITDA and the ratio of net debt to EBITDA as two of several comparative tools, together with IAS/IFRS measurements, to assist in the evaluation of our operating performance and leverage.
See the table on the following page for a reconciliation of net debt to long-term debt, which is the most directly comparable IAS/IFRS financial measure, as well as the calculation of the ratio of net debt to EBITDA. For a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable IAS/IFRS financial measure, see the table on the preceding pages.
