East Europe Area<br />

(million Euro) 30 June <strong>2009</strong> 30 June 2008 Change<br />

Revenue 160,7 233,8 (73,1)<br />

Operating Margin -0,7 14,9 (15,6)<br />

Operating Margin % -0,4% 6,4% (6,8%)<br />

The decline in operating profit and revenue experienced in Eastern Europe during the first<br />

half of <strong>2009</strong> was second only to that seen in Russia.<br />

The only significant exception was found in Turkey, where there was a notable rise in sales<br />

(+6.6%) and operating profit (3.4 million euro); this positive performance reflects an<br />

improvement in the market situation due to the introduction of government incentives and an<br />

increase in the Group's market penetration.<br />

Results in Poland were penalised by the marked depreciation of the zloty with respect to the<br />

first half of the prior year (28.8% fall in the average exchange rate) and the overall weakness<br />

of demand (down in the second quarter following a positive first quarter), although the limited<br />

price increases made during the second quarter did have some positive effect.<br />

Although positive operating profit is expected for the full year, this Area - as elsewhere - will<br />

only return to acceptable levels of profitability when market demand picks up again.<br />
