Business review by geography

Bookings and revenue margin growth in Core and Expansion markets was solid in the first quarter. In Core bookings the growth was driven by solid performance in Spain, Italy and France and in particular the flight business which experienced strong growth rates. In our Expansion markets the increase relates to Germany, as well as the UK and International markets.

Business review by Flight/Non-Flight

Progress in strategic initiatives continued to deliver solid growth in flight bookings and revenue margin, driven by both Core and Expansion markets. Revenue margin in flight experienced solid growth due to continued efforts to improve product, re-orient price and channel performance.

Non-flight business bookings continued to grow, driven by our core markets. Booking growth in most non-flight products, except for packaged tours which continued to decrease.

Non-flight revenue margin grew for the third consecutive quarter. The growth was primarily driven by a 9% increase in revenue margin per booking which itself was driven by development of metasearch, non-transactional revenue and growth in our cars, hotels and dynapacks business.

Outlook

The focus for FY2017 will be on improving the profitability and investing in the long term sustainability of the business.

We aim to invest in areas that reinforce our long term sustainability and are in the best interest of the customer, even if it leads to a trade-off between short term and long term results. We will also reduce areas in which we are not as profitable and are not as strategic to long term success.

On phasing, we expect a strong first half which will underpin most of the growth expected this year and which will allow us to accelerate the investments in the transformation of the business in H2 leading to a lower second half of the year.

The annual targets for fiscal year 2017 are as follows:

  • Bookings:In excess of 10.7 million
  • Revenue margin: In excess of €463 million
    • Adjusted EBITDA: €105 million (+10% growth), +/- €2 million
  • *NOTE

    Core Markets: Spain, Italy, and France

    Expansion Markets: All except the Core Markets

    International Markets: All except the Core Markets, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the Scandinavian countries
