22Q2 2014 Results
Impact of new sales contracts on gross operating margin
Normalised 2014 GOM to provide a like-for-like comparison and neutralize
the impact of the change in sales contracts
This change results in an estimated one-time additional charge of
~ €25-30 M in 2014 and ~ €5-10 M in 2015, with no cash impact
■ Change in structure of salesforce compensation following implementation of new
contracts starting in April 2014: ~75% recognized as incurred (fixed part + expenses) vs
~40% previously
■ No change in accounting principles: incremental variable component of sales cost
recognized with revenues (cost of contract acquisition) whilst fixed component +
expenses recognized as incurred
Results in an additional non-cash charge in P&L in 2014 and 2015:
■ In 2014: Variable compensation paid in 2013 but deferred to 2014 under old contract,
and fixed compensation + expenses paid in 2014 under new contract (previously
partially deferred to 2015 as variable compensation)
■ In 2015: Variable compensation paid in 2014 under old contract and deferred to 2015

SoLocal group Financial Earnings Q2 2014 Slides

  • 1. INVESTOR PRESENTATION 2ND QUARTER, 2014 WEDNESDAY 30 JULY 2014
  • 2. 2Q2 2014 Results Disclaimer This document contains forward-looking statements. Although Solocal Group believes its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, these statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, among other things: the effects of competition, usage levels, the success of investments by the Group in France and abroad, and the effects of the economic situation. A description of the risks borne by the Group appears in section 4 "Facteurs de risques" of the Solocal Group’s "Document de Référence" filed with the French financial markets authority (AMF) on 15 April 2014.
