“The Ability To Deliver Consistent Performance And Value In Varying Economic Circumstances.”

The following edited extract was taken from the company’s 2014 Annual Report to shareholders.

“In the period under review, our focus remained on extracting greater efficiency and business synergies to continuously improve our competitiveness, delivering on business plans and budgets, as well as creating stakeholder value.

Your Group’s performance has again demonstrated the benefits of a diverse portfolio strategy and the ability to leverage scope and geographic coverage. Further, we believe there is even more room to grow our market share in the respective sectors, irrespective of a challenging macroeconomy.

For a second consecutive year, the Group has crossed $6 billion in revenue and achieved over $1 billion in PBT. Total assets have grown and now exceed $13 billion with liquidity metrics either preserved or improved.

On a sectoral basis, our financial services sector declined by 23% as local and international portfolios generated $97 million less than the prior year. The strong gains in our automotive, trading and distribution segment offset the decline in the manufacturing, packaging and brewing segment.

Our operations in the USA, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, Grenada and St. Kitts have all performed well.

On a reported basis, revenues generated were $6.1 billion ($6.2 billion ???? 2013), PBT was $1,065 million ($1,144 million – 2013) and earnings per share (EPS) is $3.???????? ($4.31 – 2013). Operating profit (before tax and share of results of associates and joint ventures) exceed the billion dollar mark for the fifth consecutive year at $1,000 million ($1,164 million ???? 2013).

All balance sheet liquidity metrics have been preserved or improved as we grow our asset base and debt is minimal as reflected by our increasing interest cover ratio of 2????.25 (25.12 – 2013).
Our balance sheet has never been stronger but we are never complacent. We remind ourselves that adaptability not just strength is key to long term sustainability. In 2014, your Group committed investments of $184 million ($2????6 million ???? 2013) across several Sectors in business improvement and new business projects.

The ANSA McAL Group has long been one of the most successful and respected conglomerates in the region, both for our results and integrity. We see our integrity as integral to our success.” BM
