<strong>2011</strong> has been a very eventful year, both<br />
politically and economically.<br />
The reason is to be found in a fundamentally changing world. This level<br />
of change typically goes hand in hand with crisis. These changes have<br />
an impact on the economic activity, our markets, our clients and our suppliers.<br />
Eventually resulting in changes in the way we conduct business.<br />
In this context, our Group proves to be strong and healthy. Once more<br />
we have achieved our budget objectives and made a satisfactory profit<br />
this year, for which we thank our teams. The <strong>Alcopa</strong> Group is dynamic<br />
and able to seize the opportunities that present themselves in this difficult<br />
economic era. At the same time, we are implementing our long-term strategic<br />
ambition: “To become a major, independent and international player<br />
at the forefront of mobility and distribution”.<br />
In this respect, the past year has been very busy with the creation of<br />
many partnerships that are strengthening our position: with the Rietje<br />
and Bruyninx Groups (Modis), SsangYong (Alcadis), our developments in<br />
parts & accessories (Moteo), Vinco-Technibureau (EOL), the real estate<br />
transactions which have contributed greatly to our annual result and the<br />
first projects from AlcoDev, our diversification branch.<br />
Regarding 2012, we will make every effort to continue the good operational<br />
performance achieved in <strong>2011</strong> in spite of major uncertainties and<br />
an extremely tough condition in our market places. We will also continue<br />
to consolidate our group by further investing in new partnerships, both in<br />
Belgium and abroad.<br />
Finally, we would like to stress the importance of the <strong>Alcopa</strong> company values<br />
which are the foundations of our overall strategy. We are convinced<br />
that fostering entrepreneurship at all levels in the group is essential to<br />
deliver the desired performance in a very respectful fashion with regards<br />
to our clients, stakeholders and employees. And we would like to express<br />
our personal gratitude and appreciation for the continued support of our<br />
shareholders.<br />

Hyundai is the 4th largest automotive<br />
brand worldwide, and still growing<br />
thanks to multiple model launches and<br />
impressive image-building. Alongside a<br />
strong SUV range, the new i-models are<br />
now very well received in our markets<br />
with the new i40 as key-launch in <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
This model will allow Hyundai to take a<br />
major step in the expansion of its fleetbusiness.<br />
Only one year after the revival of SsangYong,<br />
the brand is now established in Benelux,<br />
Poland, Switzerland and Germany, and the all<br />
new Korando received positive feedback from<br />
press and dealers. The focus is now on the<br />
expansion of our dealer network and on the<br />
improvement of image and brand awareness<br />
to increase the market share.<br />
In the compact car-segments, Suzuki<br />
remains a leading company. With a clear<br />
market-trend of downsizing, the Alto<br />
city-car and the very popular Swift are<br />
the perfect models to meet new market<br />
demands. Various special series delight<br />
the customers and make us keep the<br />
momentum for these products which are<br />
