Most notably, on January 25th, BTS Group successfully sold USD 327mn (or THB 10,000mn) worth of convertible bonds to overseas investors. BTS Group had limited the issuance to THB 10,000mn, even though the eventual demand was closer to USD 8 800mn. The bonds are THB denominated, so there is no currency risk on the outstanding principal. The bonds (and the Bangkok Bank letter of credit that backs them up) have an all-in in borrowing cost of 2.5% for the first 2 years, thereafter 0% for years 3 through 5. This represents a saving of 2.875% (or THB 287.5mn) per year for the first 2 years and 5.375% (or THB 537.5mn) per year thereafter, thereafter assuming that the bondholders lders hold to maturity or convert before that. Equally important as Thailand endures the current inflationary and rising interest rate environment is that the issuance enabled the Group to fix the rate of its primary borrowings. Current consensus is that the Bank of Thailand will raise the repurchase rates by an additional 0.5% by the end of 2011. If this proves to be the outcome, then the savings achieved by this issuance will become even more significant.

In 3Q 10/11, BTS SkyTrain recorded the highest rider ridership in its history with 39.7 mn n passengers, averaging 481,632 passengers per weekday. This translated into record revenue for the Mass Transit business. The Media business also achieved record quarterly revenue, as it continues to aggressively expand its business into the modern trade sector. Whilst net results were still impacted by certain non-recurring items and a high interest cost that was the legacy of the acquisition loan utlised to purchase BTSC in May, the BTS Group is well on the way to a successful completion of what has been a year of considerable transition.

On November 29th, BTSC executed the operation and a maintenance agreement with Krungthep Thanakom Company Limited for the operation and maintenance of the 5.25km extension from On On-nut to Bearing. This 5-station station extension is expected to open in August 2011 and will increase the O&M fee income by approxim approximately THB 630mn in the first year. Further, BTSC has agreed to purchase 35 new ‘middle cars’ and these are expected to be delivered in mid-2013 mid as the he BTS Group continues to position itself to benefit from the continued expansion of Bangkok’s mass transi transit network. In spite of the recent achievements, much work remains to be done. th Further restructuring is already underway, and as of January 26 , the Company has reduced the par value of the shares wiping out the share discount account and reducing the retained losses of the company. This will enable the company to pay dividends to shareholders, subject to future profitability. We look forward to bringing you more updates on this in 4Q 10/11. Yours faithfully,
Daniel Ross Financial Director

Financial Highlights • • • • •
Total operating revenue of THB 1,625.7mn in 3Q 10/11, representing growth of 18.5% YoY Operating EBIT margin of 24.7% in 3Q 10/11, compared to 21.7% in 3Q 09/10 New historic high ridership on BTS SkyTrain achieved; Total quarterly ridership of 39.7mn passengers in 3Q 10/11 New record revenue from Media business achieved; THB 370.4mn in 3Q 10/11 Net income of the Group of THB 26.6mn, compared to THB 228.7mn in 3Q 09/10 weighed down by interest costs
Quarterly Performance – 3Q 10/11 As the acquisition of the shares of BTSC and its subsidiaries was considered to be a business combination under common control, the Company has restated the consolidated and separate financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2010 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended 30 December 2009, as if BTSC and its subsidiaries, acquired in May 2010, had been a subsidiary of the Company since it was established. BTSG Holdings Public Company Limited (“BTSG” or the “Company”) and subsidiaries (together, the “Group”) recorded consolidated total revenue of THB 1,700.9mn in 3Q 10/11, an increase of 7.6% (or THB 121.4mn) from THB 1,579.5mn in 3Q 09/10. Operating revenue also rose 18.5% to THB 1,625.7mn. The increase was from improved revenue across all our primary business sectors. Revenues from the Mass Transit, Media, Property and Services businesses accounted for 63.9%, 22.8%, 11.4% and 1.9% of total operating revenues respectively. Operating Revenue6 (THB mn) Mass Transit6

Gross profit margin
Total expenses rose by 13.5% to THB 1,296.4mn (and less than the increase in operating revenue) hence the Group saw an improvement in its gross margin to 43.2% compared with 39.8% in the previous year. Selling and administrative expenses increased 14.6% or by THB 46mn to THB 360.9mn on the back of increased investment in Abstracts brand (although this fell QoQ) as well as professional fees related to warrant listing and extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. In addition, the group realised a loss on exchange of THB 11.4mn in 3Q 10/11 in relation to an accounting policy for the Euro component of the advance payment for new rolling stock (35 middle cars). Although operational EBIT9 grew by 35.0% YoY to THB 401.6mn, (from THB 297.5mn in 3Q 09/10), interest costs remained a heavy burden, rising to THB 343.8mn in 3Q 10/11 (compared with THB 193.4mn in 3Q 09/10). Weighed down by this interest cost, the Group reported a net profit of THB 26.6mn (versus THB 228.6mn in 3Q 09/10); a decline of THB 205.6mn or 94.0% compared with 3Q 09/10. Net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent was THB 12.3mn. Besides operational items, the Group benefited from two non-recurring items in 3Q 10/11 of THB 38.6mn. This is due to a gain on debt settlement (THB 14.8mn) from reversal of cash deposited as collateral for settled cases as well as gain on the sale of Belle Development shares (THB 23.8mn). Total assets stood at THB 63,446.7mn, a 3.5% increase from End March 2010. The key changes in the structure of the balance sheet (such as increase in shareholders’ equity from THB 23,820.6mn to THB 37,578.0mn, decrease in ‘Accounts payable from subsidiaries’ acquisition’ from THB 21,155.7mn to THB 0mn) are as a result of the re-statements of accounts in relation to the acquisition of shares in BTSC as a business combination under common control, and these are explained in more detail in the Notes to the financial statements. The Group also saw an increase in fixed assets by 3.2% or THB 1,701mn as a result of the investment in BRT cars, new land at Phayathai as well as construction progress on the Four Points hotel at Surasak. 9
operational EBIT excludes gain on debt settlement (THB 14.8mn in 3Q 10/11, THB 142.7mn in 3Q 09/10) and loss on exchange (THB 11.4mn in 3Q 10/11, THB .5mn in 3Q 09/10)\

KEY BUSINESS UNIT UPDATES
MASS TRANSIT In 3Q 10/11, quarterly ridership reached 39.7mn mn passengers, representing a 5.0% increase compared to 2Q 10/11 or 4.7% 4.7 increase YoY. The total 3Q 10/11 ridership number of 39.7mn passengers represents a new record of quarterly passenger in BTSC operational histo history. Meanwhile, our monthly ridership sets up a new historic high of 13.3mn passengers in November 2010. An average fare price in 3Q 10/11 also improved from THB 24.10 in 2Q 10/11 and THB 24.06 in 3Q 09/10 to THB 24.20.

The above performance is reflected in 3Q 10/11 Mass Transit revenues, which saw 9% increase YoY to THB 1,038.9mn. In addition additio to farebox revenue which increased to THB 959.5mn in line with ridership growth, O&M revenue also rose by 84.4% to THB 79.3mn du due to contribution from the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) operating contracts. The cost of farebox actually declined in 3Q 10/11 compared compare to 3Q 09/10 primarily due to lower salary (bonus) costs than the previous year. The gross profit margin of the Mass Transit business improved YoY to 40.7% from 35.8% although the QoQ decline (2Q 10/11: 43%) was attributable to payment of staff incentives in this quarter. During 3Q 10/11, the BTS SkyTrain implemented the new signaling system on the Silom line, which aims to red reduce uce headway and offer and improved service frequency to passengers. However, during the transition stage and the introduction of the some of the new 44-car trains, the BTS SkyTrain service experienced 3 major delays due to radio signal interference. All m major issues have now been resolved however, there continue to be minor delays on an infrequent basis. As of end December, 4 of the 12 new 44-car car trains were in service and all 12 are expected to be in service by February 2011. th
On November 29 , BTSC executed ed the operation and maintenance agreement with Krungthep Thanakom Company Limited for the operation and maintenance of the 5.25km extension from On On-nut to Bearing. This 5-station station extension is expected to open in August 2011 and will increase the O&M fee income of the Group considerably. In the first year of operations, the fee income to BTS Group will be approximately THB 630mn.

3Q 10/11
(3 months ending 31 December 2010)
MEDIA During 3Q 10/11, the advertising industry grew 15% YoY according to AGB Nielsen. The BTS Group focuses on the transit and in-store sectors, and these sub-sectors outpaced the overall industry growth seeing YoY increase of 62% and 56% respectively. Against this backdrop, the Group’s Media business revenue reached THB 370.4mn in 3Q 10/11 (a 27% or THB 77.9mn increase YoY and a 7% increase QoQ), a record since the company was formed. Recent growth is primarily as a result of aggressive expansion in the modern trade sector (new contract for Tesco FM as well as mature occupancy for Tesco LCD and Carrefour static media) as well as the benefits from the Point-of-View (PoV) acquisition. BTS-related revenue also grew at a double-digit rate QoQ as both In-train LCDs and On-station static media benefited from seasonally high spending. Despite a decline in the media business gross profit margin to 66.5% in 3Q 10/11 from 68.9% in 3Q 09/10 (as the proportion of non-BTS related media increased), the operational EBIT margin (excluding other income) showed improvement to 51.3% (from 49.4% in 3Q 09/10) thanks to a considerable shrinking in selling and administrative expenses to sales ratio to 15.2% (from 19.5% in 3Q 09/10). In November 2010, the Group was officially granted the right to operate advertising space in and outside the BRT cars for a concession period of 6.5 years. Contribution of Revenue (Media business)

3Q 10/11
(3 months ending 31 December 2010)
PROPERTY The Group’s Property business saw revenues increase by THB 57.5mn (or 46.1%) to THB 182.7mn in 3Q 10/11 compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. This was as a result of a policy to accelerate sales of its Thana City project (THB 53.0mn in 3Q 10/11 versus THB 14.0mn in 3Q 09/10) as well as higher completions of Baan Aur Athorn (THB 95.1mn versus THB 62.1mn in 3Q 09/10). Nevertheless, property business realised lower hotel management revenue in 3Q 10/11 compared to 3Q 09/10 due to an decrease in revenue from Eastin Muang Thong Thani hotel management contract which was terminated in December 2009.

SERVICES Our Services business saw revenue rise to THB 30.9mn (compared to THB 22.6mn in 2Q 10/11 and THB 0.5mn 3Q 09/10). 3Q marks the continuation of the peak season at Thana City Golf, and the Group also benefited from marketing activities surrounding the visit of Greg Norman to the course. Despite achieving a gross profit margin of 45%, selling and administrative expenses rose considerably to THB 13.9mn due mainly to employee benefits expense. Hence, the Group saw only small amount of net income from Thana City Golf. Absolute Hotel Services Co. Ltd (AHS) continued acquiring new management contracts regionally during the period. The company successfully debuted its new Eastin Easy brand in 3Q 10/11 in the Indian and Indonesian markets. In the meantime, U Inchantree Kanchanaburi officially opened in 3Q 10/11.
