SERHSDNA annual report 2012


Institutional Area

Dear shareholders, We have been suffering from this crisis for almost 5 years and it is affecting us all, though not everyone in the same way. However the general situation in the country is still bad: consumption fails to recover, unemployment is constantly on the increase, company and individuals’ accounts are worse and worse every day and the banks, as they have had to solve their own problems, are failing to play an efficient role to help companies and families. However, the most worrying thing is that the general future perspectives are not at all clear. But if we look at the internal situation of our Group, we will see that our situation is different, we have reaped the rewards of the last four years, starting new initiatives, seeking greater efficiency, streamlining structures, eliminating unproductive operations, grouping sales operations, enhancing online sales, starting up innovation plans and using new technologies, amongst many other things. The result of all of this is that we will most certainly be able to overcome the difficulties and the financial year 2013 will bring in an advance in our turnover and an improvement in our results. Although the results for 2012 are not what we expected because the situation has caught us at the end of our restructuring process, and although the state of the country’s economy has not been good, our company has covered the capital increase it proposed in October 2012. It has managed to share out dividends and shares amongst the shareholders for nearly €2.7 million by applying the innovative Dividend Choice program. To be more specific, most of the 74.26% of shareholders opted to purchase shares, whereas the remaining 25.74% chose to receive the corresponding amount in cash. SERHS closed 2012 with a turnover of €465 million and operating profits (EBITDA, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) amounting to €18 million. Today our corporation is formed by an average payroll of 2,500 workers and a shareholding of 1,533 partners, 43.77% of whom are workers or relatives of workers. Our company has not passed unnoticed in the economic sector of our country, and here I clearly refer to our contribution to national income, understood as an indicator of prosperity not only of the people forming part of the Group, but of the country in general. Our contribution to the national income in 2012 amounted to €82.92 million. In the last five years, this figure has been €444.53 million. However, in order to move on, and in the Grup SERHS as a pioneering tourist company in Catalonia we are very aware of this, a company like ours has to invest. The present environmental circumstances have made us cautious when investing in recent years. However, we have not failed to invest in areas we considered essential for the future growth of our business. The amount of investment made by the Group in the last five years has been €78 million, and in the last year 2012, it amounted to €7.8 million, 47.38% of which

we put into new investments. One of the areas in which we have invested each year has been the development and improvement of new technologies, for we believe this is the only way to reduce costs and to have faster and more reliable information on our customers and our surroundings. This last year it was difficult to maintain the volume of our sales, firstly because of the market situation and also because in SERHS we pay great attention to profitability and receipts, which we will continue to do in 2013 with the utmost attention. With respect to 2013, one fact is we can look at with optimism is the good evolution of the sales being felt in the SERHS Tourism division. Our leadership in the markets of the Eastern bloc countries, and particularly Russia, the increase in online sales and, in our case, the market in the Spanish state, made us optimistic about the result of the tourist season. We must also highlight the good development of our activities in Brazil, where we are working to start up new business opportunities.

If we look at

the internal situation

of our Group, we will see that our situation

is different, we have

reaped the rewards of

the last four years. One

of the areas in

which we have invested each

To finish, I would like to reiterate the work done to adapt the structures of our Group to the present times, enhancing an organisation where each division has clearly defined its objectives and taken on human resources with sufficient capacity to achieve them, which will mean that in addition to being able to overcome the turbulence of the present times, we will be well prepared to take a large step forward into the future.

year has been the development and

improvement of new technologies.

I do not want to finish without thanking both our employees for their continued effort, commitment and their strong feeling of belonging, and our partners for the confidence and support they always show. Thank you very much

Structure and Origins of SERHS

ADNSERHS informe anual 2012


Institutional Area

“Serveis Mancomunats d’Hostaleria i Similars”, a cooperative with the abbreviated name of SERHS, was founded in 1975 to face the crisis in the tourist business and specifically to cover the concerns of the hoteliers in Calella (El Maresme region). Our institution, now a large corporation, leads the tourist sector in Catalonia and is among the leaders in the Spanish State. The present SERHS now works on three continents and is formed by 63 active companies. It has an average payroll of 2,570 workers and a shareholding of 1,586 partners, 44% of whom are workers or relatives of workers in SERHS. Six large divisions make up the SERHS business, which also show considerable operative synergies between them: distribution (perishables and non-perishables); tourism and travel; hotels; food management and production; projects and equipment; services and new technologies. As a business corporation, SERHS also works in other areas of activity such as real estate, property and portfolio. Our growth, which is based on diversification, has brought new customers into the Group and has enhanced its territorial expansion inside and outside Spain. In order to face the future challenges, the Grup SERHS realises that it has to continue to base its activity on its important human structure, with one clear target: “to invest in future”, which means investing in innovation, training and in the application of new technologies without forgetting the philosophy based on the diversification of sectors and territories always within our field of action, and above all in giving a comprehensive service that includes all business divisions.

SERHS INCREASES THE SHARE CAPITAL TO 96.025 MILLION EUROS On 4 October 2012, the Extraordinary General Assembly of Shareholders of the Grup SERHS unanimously agreed that the share capital would pass from the present 93.15 million euros to the figure of 96.025 million euros, an increase of 3.09%. The Assembly was held in the Castell Jalpí in Arenys de Munt, the company headquarters. It was attended and represented by 351 shareholders, accounting for 61.09% of the SERHS share capital. In addition to going over the group’s main business activities, the agenda dealt with the subject of approving the balance sheet closed on 30 June of this year, and which served as a basis for carrying out the capital increases to proceed to share out one released share for every 60 shares under ownership. The issue of new shares was also approved for placement on sale amongst the same shareholders or potential partners. SERHS will have a total of 41,750,000 shares. DIVIDEND SHARE-OUT

Business activities

Dear shareholders, We continue to invest in the future and wager on new technologies and innovation. The first Innovation Plan of the Grup SERHS, which was started in 2010, has now achieved its objective: to make a deep analysis of the company’s activity and organisation and to prioritise, cooperate and work in an organised manner, assessing risks and opportunities, being more creative and knowing how to manage and get the most out of innovation. We have gone for a committee of transversal innovation in which all divisions of the Grup SERHS are represented by at least one person. Both projects, winners of the “Eudec System Operation” and “Development of the online channel” of SERHS Distribution are now in the final straight of their development and are expected to be introduced in June 2013. And we also continue to wager on management through talent thanks to the training of our managers with more contents related to the Group and corporate areas, finance, management skills and process improvement. The Training Plan for managers is now in its fifth edition, and a further nine are planned. A total of around a hundred managers will be trained over the four years that the project will last. Our firm stake on new technologies also means materialising the Documentary Management Plan, in which the digitalisation process of all invoices received in all SERHS companies was introduced, and since mid-2012, the process of issuing invoices is also electronic, thus fostering the aim of achieving an office without papers. Along the same line we find the digitalisation process of employment and mercantile dossiers, which will include the electronic signature. In the Grup SERHS, not only are we overcoming the difficulties, which is already enough for companies today, but we have continued to undertake new projects, new investments, new agreements, assessing new opportunities to allow us in the short, medium or long term to continue developing a business strategy in accordance with the way we do and understand business. Some of these milestones are mentioned in the business activity report that you will be able to read in the following, but I would like to highlight the most important by way of summary, because some of their magnitudes show the solidity and position of our group on the market in the face of the general economic situation we are unfortunately experiencing. Tourism in the Spanish state is not at the best time of its history, and therefore in SERHS Tourism, increased sales have been enhanced, particularly in the emission markets such as the Russian, the British, countries of Eastern Europe and Nordic countries. This division is a clear example of the development of technology based on continuous improvement, and has therefore increased investment in the area of technology in order to strengthen our technological platform and the services offered to customers. The part of the group’s hotel division this year brought in the first urban hotel in the city of Barcelona, the SERHS Rivoli Rambla, a four-star establishment in the centre of the city which has led the division with a first and large step towards achieving one of the main master lines established in its expansion plan. The second step was to turn it in 2013 into the first Chinese Friendly Hotel in Barcelona, providing it with an opportunity to open to the Chinese market. We must not forget SERHS’s own products, such as the rural villages which aimed to consolidate their scientific activity proposal amongst the youngest with the initiative “Experience Science in the Rural Villages.” With this aim, it pushes the objective of becoming a Scientific Family Tourism Destination.

Supported by the Department of Applied Physics of the UPC (Catalonia Polytechnic University), which backs the educational content, they offer workshops and activities related to science for children, always seeking added value for our customers. With regard to distribution, we must highlight the integration of cold, cool and frozen in the six distribution platforms that until now only distributed non perishable goods. These are located in Catalonia and now bring refrigerated and frozen products into their portfolio, products which previously were only served from Tordera and Tarragona. Customers, restaurant and hotel professionals, are provided with a wide range of more than 6,000 articles through a single integral spokesperson.

In the Grup SERHS we continue to undertake new projects, investments, agreements, assessing new opportunities that allow us to continue to develop a business strategy in accordance with the way we do and understand business.

We are strongly positioned with business strategies aimed at online sales with web sites adapted to each kind of business such as the Eudec product, with a wide range of products and references basically for the hotel, restaurant, health and education sectors; that of SERHS Equipment with a website on machinery sales, furniture and household items for hostelry and groups; that of SERHS Distribution which also, from this year, includes refrigerated and frozen products; the Human SERHS consulting website, specialised in Integral Human Resource Service; and Migjornser, the new channel which is intended to show the wide portfolio of services and products they can offer and also achieve online sales of certain products.

Our relationships with large companies such as FC Barcelona, RCD Espanyol and Port Aventura remain in force and the sign is that they will continue to trust in us. This year, in addition to these, we have brought in companies of the like of Barcelona Zoo, Vic Hospital Consortium, an old people’s unit of the Corporació Parc Taulí in Sabadell, thus extending the portfolio of sectors on the level both of health care and leisure. Finally, we find the section of Corporate Social Responsibility. In 2012, this was a year for consolidating the projects and policies forming part of the Values Plan started in 2008. A catalogue of posts and organisation charts, policy of reconciliation of working and family life, welcome to new workers, equal opportunities between men and women, help to families and supportive and social agreements are some of the outstanding projects this year. In a second block, you can find the economic and financial information corresponding to the year closed at 31 December 2012. These consolidated figures have been assessed by the FauraCasas Auditors i Consultors auditing company, which bore witness to the annual accounts after auditing the figures.

Business activities TRAINING SERHS MANAGES THROUGH TALENT At the end of 2011, the Development Plan for Management Personnel: SERHS manages through talent was started up. The plan was designed to work on the aspects which all people forming part of the SERHS management team have to have, and therefore includes subjects which are typical to the Group and more corporate: financial aspects, management skills and process improvement, all accompanied by a coach to help to develop skills. Five editions of the Plan have now been carried out of a total nine expected. In total almost a hundred managers will be trained over the four years it will last.

BUSINESS VALUES

INNOVATION With regard to innovation, 2012 served to work on, enhance and conclude the profile of the two winning projects of the SERHS Innovation Plan 2011, which will be totally implemented by the middle of 2013: SERHS Food: Operation of the Eudec System.

FINAL WORK

DIGITALISATION

After a period in which the broad lines of opportunity to improve the corporation more reflectively and analytically were established and worked on, now we start a new period with more open and collaborative participation, open to all people in the Group. The aim is to achieve innovation with a much more transversal presence throughout the Group.

DOCUMENTARY MANAGEMENT PLAN As part of the Social Responsibility Values Plan, in 2011, the Documentary Management Plan appeared with the objective of identifying, working and optimising the documentary management processes in all functions affecting the companies of the group. Through digitalisation, the plan enables: centralised storage of documents in electronic format using a single, central bank to guarantee security; control of the life cycle and flow of the documents; direct accounting of the bills received; digital documents to be sought and recovered using Web technology, fast and simple access to be provided for multiple users with advanced search tools, and; the dissemination of the use of electronic signatures.

A new Adhoc Innovation Committee was therefore constituted to achieve this transversality and agility. With the name of “The Path of Ideas” we must highlight the principal project of this new stage, an idea management program intended to ensure that all workers in the Group might give their proposals and work with those of their colleagues.

The digitalisation process includes four basic and strategic processes: the personal file, mercantile documentation, electronic signature and supplier and creditor billing. As for the last of these, 2011 saw the start of the system being implemented in some of the SERHS companies, and the remaining will be brought in in 2012. Along the same lines, since the middle of 2012 the invoice issuing process has also been electronic, fostering the aim of achieving an office without papers. In 2013 too, the project began to digitalise the labour and mercantile files, which will include an important step: the electronic signature. This will relieve offices of paper and speed up the signing process.

Additionally, and making use of the new SERHS Portal, a permanent space is created on innovation, which will collect all of the internal and external information related to this field.

SERHS Hotels has extended its collaboration agreement with the Hotel El MontanyĂ with a rental contract.

SERHSDNA annual report 2012


NEW INCORPORATIONS The SERHS Hotels division continues to wager on national and international expansion. The roadmap of the Expansion Plan passes through acquiring hotels under rental or management, and particularly in urban destinations, Brazil, prime international destinations and other beach, mountain or urban options, provided that they allow us to continue to give service value to our customers and assure economic viability and increase our potential. Following this Strategic and Expansion Plan, the SERHS Hotels division in 2012 bought in its first urban hotel in Barcelona. The hotel SERHS Rivoli Rambla since the past 1 August is the division’s new acquisition under rental and has become the first hotel in the city of Barcelona. The four-star hotel establishment is on the Ramblas, in the heart of Barcelona. It is an emblematic establishment in the city by which SERHS Hotels continues to fulfil the roadmap within its Expansion Plan. STRATEGIC AGREEMENTS In the past October 2012, the SERHS Hotels division signed an agreement with Review Pro, a leading supplier of software for monitoring reputation online. With this agreement, SERHS Hotels takes a further step towards absolute control over what is comprehensively said on the net. In order to better adapt to the demands of customers and tourism staying in the division’s hotels, the hotel SERHS Rivoli Rambla has become the first Chinese Friendly Hotel in the city of Barcelona. This agreement was signed in March during the I World Conference of Chinese Friendly Cities in Seville. This organisation provides all of its associates with systems to be positioned and increase the number of Chinese visitors to their businesses through models of communication and marketing, training tools for their teams to be able to more successfully reach the Chinese market and, in short, the necessary resources to get the best out of this new opportunity for opening up to the Chinese market. The new rental contract with the Hotel El Montanyà for the coming years reaffirms and consolidates the roadmap in the expansion plan. The SERHS Hotels division will continue operating this leading and emblematic resort widely known in the sector. OUTSTANDING PRODUCTS AND SERVICES “Scientists wanted,” is the new wager with which the Vilars Rurals intend to consolidate their proposal of scientific activities amongst the youngest, complementing the concepts learned at school with scientific experiments. With more than 30 experiments for parents and children backed, designed and supported by the Catalonia Polytechnic University. Apart from the entertaining and didactic side, the Vilars Rurals intend to use them to transmit values such as respect, solidarity, education, teamwork, self-esteem and sharing. Most of the workshops are done using recycled materials such as plastic bottles, refreshment cans, cups, cardboard and paper, etc so that the children might be able to reproduce the experiments simply at home. The main subjects are meteorology, astronomy, physics, chemistry, sustainability and geology. The new agreement with Catalonia Polytechnic University continues to offer and enhance the enjoyment-educational side to be transmitted through the Vilars Rural trademark, thus giving the SERHS rural hotel establishments added value. SERHS Hotels reinforces its specialisation in organising and planning all kinds of events: company meetings, congresses and conventions, groups, incentives and sports stays to turn them into a unique, tailor-made experience. SERHS Hotels Corporate & Events provides customers with a wide range of possibilities for each of the events in rural and natural, urban or international surroundings with a totally personalised service, placing the human team and its facilities, meeting rooms, spaces and technology as required to make every event a success.

COETTC 2012 Award for Excellence to SERHS Food.


NEW PRODUCTS AND SERVICES SERHS Food has set out on a virtual adventure with the new Eudec product online store (www.eudec.com). This Web offers a wide range of products and references basically for the hotel, restaurant, health and education sectors so that users can buy more comfortably and simply. Since 2006, FCB has trusted in the experience and efficiency of SERHS Food and therefore reached an agreement to carry out, in addition to the general points in Camp Nou, the restaurant service in the balconies and VIP rooms of the stadium. The UEFA has also chosen ARC’s Catering for the VIP service at the champions league games held at Camp Nou. We must also highlight the performance of the EuroForum 2012 service by ARC’s Catering, an event which is put on every two years where the restaurant service was served for three days in Barcelona in such emblematic places as the Casa Batlló, el Palauet, the Cercle de Lectors and the dome of the Les Arenes shopping centre. Finally, another event which was covered by ARCS CATERING was the restaurant service of the Europa Race in Barcelona old port for all participants in the regatta. The Castell Jalpí has been the base for numerous institutional activities in the region and media activity such as the filming of the mythical TV3 Catalan series La Riera, where the Castell stage was used as the Casino of the soap opera. At the same time the Castell is the company headquarters for the Grup SERHS were a large number of meetings and events are held that require the solemnity and majesty of its surroundings and facilities, as is the case of a fashion parade by a clothing company from Canada, Ribkoff, which was held this year in the castle’s August Borràs room. The new development this last year for Fleca SERHS, the company that offers an integral service of wheat-based products for hospitality, restaurants and groups, has been to develop different references of Russian bread to expand its offer and customer satisfaction. The large affluence of tourists from Eastern Europe coming to the hotels and restaurants on the coasts has made Fleca SERHS adapt to the circumstances with a very positive result both in the Maresme area and Tarragona, where it has also been introduced in the hotels of PortAventura. In January 2012, the Take Eat Easy restaurant-cafeteria was opened in the World Trade Centre in Barcelona, a new business line in the SERHS Food Division. This is a new business concept in its product portfolio, a new concept of restaurant service to set up in business parks. In the first year since it was opened, it has achieved a figure of 50,000 menus, that is, it has served an average 225 menus each day and 60,000 breakfasts amongst other services. NEW STRATEGIC AGREEMENTS AND ADJUDICATIONS In this sense, we highlight the adjudication of the global proposal for managing the restaurant and catering areas of Barcelona Zoo for the coming two years. SERHS Food provides visitors to the zoo with four restaurant points, a cabin of natural products, a sweet shop, five impulse food points and cafeteria, the staff dining room, the vending machines distributed around the park, moving hotdog points, popcorn, slush, etc. and also the menus of the Casal Zoo and birthday parties. The adjudications particularly included the fact that in January 2013, SERHS Food was chosen to develop the management and operation of the Consorci Hospitalari de Vic restaurant service and that of the Hospital Fundació de la Santa Creu de Vic. The integral restaurant service was contracted by public tender for feeding patients, staff and managing the bar cafeterias in five health care centres: Manlleu Hospital, Residència Nadal, Clínica de Vic and to cafeterias, one public and another for staff at Vic General Hospital. Finally, in February the corporation’s food division started to give the integral restaurant and cafeteria-bar service for the public entity Sabadell Gent Gran Centre de Serveis, S.A. which forms part of the Corporació Parc Taulí. In this case SERHS Food manages the food and diet services for the 130 residents in the centre and the meals on the table, the cafeteria-bar and the cleaning service for a time of four years.

This is a cleaning and disinfection system that uses no chemical products and which offers maximum savings and sustainability in the process of cleaning and disinfecting in the hospitality sector.

SERHS EVENING

Institutional events

This is an emblematic celebration which has been put on since the first year of SERHS’ existence and comprises a gala dinner with shareholders, customers, suppliers and figures from the economic, institutional and social worlds. In September 2012, it was held at the Castell Jalpí in Arenys de Munt and was attended by the Minister for Enterprise and Occupation, Mr Francesc Xavier Mena. It gathered nearly 400 people. The SERHS awards were also given during the evening for the professional career of the “Distinguished worker” and the “Manager of the year” chosen among the teams of all of the companies forming the group, and to a company for its “Trajectory and commitment with SERHS”, which was awarded to Mapfre last year. EXPOSERHS This is an interactive business fair where we can find leading companies in different areas of hospitality, food and collectives.

The event devoted to professionals of hostelry, restaurants and collectives was once more held at the Camp Nou facilities on 17 and 18 April of this year. More than 100 exhibiting brands from all areas of activity, 93% repeating from other years, successfully presented their products to those attending. The right Honourable Mr Felip Puig, Minister of Enterprise and Occupation of the Government of Catalonia, was responsible for presiding the opening ceremony of ExpoSERHS 2013. SERHS FORUM Addressed to all members of the group, shareholders, workers and collaborators of the corporation. The Forum started with the intention of seeing and getting a different view of the different sectors or current subjects forming the economic, social and cultural life of our country. Mr Frans van der Hoff, Doctor in Theology and the economy, theoretician of fair trade in its modern dimension, led the Forum SERHS 2012 held at the Castell Jalpí in Arenys de Munt on the past 13 November. His talk dealt with “The importance of ecological production and the construction of a fair market” based on carrying out ecological policies in developing areas such as Oaxaca (southern Mexico) where the father has been working for over 30 years, and how to look for a different kind of economy by seeking Fair Trade proposals.

Internal communication

Communication between the company and its workers is basic for the good operation of a corporation of the size of the Grup SERHS. This is why the Group is in favour of establishing fluid, two-way, open communication with all of the members who form part of the corporation, through the tools created specifically for this. As this is a very wide group, the fact belonging to the group allows the staff to benefit from considerable advantages everywhere. Channels of communication: NEW EXCLUSIVE PORTAL FOR SERHS WORKERS AND SHAREHOLDERS NEW PLATFORM FOR COLLECTING IDEAS FROM WORKERS THROUGH THREE PROGRAMS: “AND YOU, HOW WOULD YOU DO IT?” “THINK BIG” “THE CHALLENGE” SERHS MAGAZINE PRESENCE ON THE PRINCIPAL SOCIAL NETWORKS Advantages for the SERHS people: INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL DISCOUNTS USING THE SERHS CARD PARTICIPATION IN THE SHAREHOLDING, ALL SERHS WORKERS CAN BE SHAREHOLDERS WITH CONSIDERABLE TAX BENEFITS

TRAINING The work of the training department starts with the analysis of the training needs and aspects of improvement that companies seek in order to turn them towards a solution that might have a direct impact on results. Along with the company, a series of aspects/skills are chosen which are worked on during the year, through training, in order to bring the basic aptitudes/skills of the staff into line with the Group’s present and future strategic objectives. In 2012, in all of the companies of the corporation, more than €300,000 was put into training. Specifically, a total of 392 training groups were made with a total of 3150 participants, supposing a total of over 40,000 hours in training. Since 2010, the Grup SERHS has had its own e-learning catalogue with more than 500 courses in different areas: sales skills, finance, office computer technology, Internet and basic tools, languages, management skills, quality, amongst others, and even university courses. Through this platform, in 2012 the Grup SERHS trained more than 65% of its employees. Unlike traditional training in attendance, with e-learning students become the active subject in the training as they are the ones who said there learning rhythm and decide on the days, times and places where they will study. Furthermore, there are individualised tutorials and 24/7 communication with the tutor throughout the course. The SERHS companies choose e-learning because it is a guarantee of quality for them, smaller expenses (administrative and travel) and the standardisation of the training content received by the workers (everybody receives the same training whatever their geographic location). Furthermore, as added value, the workers trained in this way become more skilful with ICT tools, which is essential today for any job.

PREVENTION OF OCCUPATIONAL RISKS

Human Resources

With respect to the Grup SERHS Associated Prevention Service, three important aspects stand out in 2012 and the first quarter of 2013. Firstly, the overall loss index of the companies of the Grup SERHS has clearly fallen in 2012 in comparison with 2011. This was specifically a fall of 1.63%. Two of the divisions causing this fall, in which the number of accidents requiring sick leave were reduced, were SERHS Distribution and SERHS Food. It must be said that most of the accidents were only light.

In the second term, in March 2013 OHSAS 18001 Certification for the Risk Prevention Management System was achieved for all of the companies of the Group. And finally, in the first quarter of 2013, a new Associated Prevention Service was created in hostelry and restaurants called ABANTSER, S.L., through which the team of professionals of the Grup SERHS Occupational Risk Prevention department intends to offer the same quality and excellent service in ORP to companies of the same sector, but outside the Group.


Environmental report


Environmental report

TRANSVERSAL MANAGEMENT PLAN The Grup SERHS in recent years has brought in criteria for protecting the environment within the general management of its business in a general policy of corporate social responsibility, and assuming part of the responsibility corresponding to them in preserving and improving the environment. In this sense, SERHS is moving slowly but steadily along the path to environmental excellence. The TÜV Rheinland auditing team, following the purpose of the audit, discovered that the company’s management system meets the requirements of the regulations, and is duly maintained and implemented. In order to favour exemplary environmental behaviour throughout our staff, and at the forefront of companies committed to the environment, the “Efficient Driving for drivers of industrial vehicles and support personnel” e-learning program was carried out. The aim of these courses is to apply new driving technologies that allow drivers to save fuel up to 15-20% and thereby reduce emissions into the environment and improve safety. Importance is still given to the Manual of Good Environmental Practices of all of the companies of the Group and can be accessed through the Welcome Manual on the SERHS intranet portal. Alongside this and in order to nurture responsible use of heating in the winter and air-conditioning apparatuses in the summer, the “Set an example, let’s save energy” campaign has been started to make workers aware with a series of recommendations to produce well-being and energy-saving.

SERHS DISTRIBUTION The distribution companies in the hostelry and collective sector carry out a very positive function for the whole of society in preserving the environment. The distribution of drinks in returnable and reusable packs (boxes or barrels) helps to reduce a large volume of packs. In recent years, a process has also been carried out to renew all of the forklift trucks in the stores, by replacing the diesel trucks with electric ones, a cleaner energy which avoids gas emission in the stores. In 2012, the process was started to renew the fleet of commercial and distribution vehicles in order to meet the requirements of the Euro 5 Regulation, which establishes the technical requirements for approving motor vehicles regarding atmospheric emissions. The plan is to renew 80 commercial vehicles between 2012 and 2013. The company NAM, NAM, S.L. achieved the ISO 14001 in 2011, technical certification intended to minimise the negative effects of its activities on the environment, and to achieve environmental improvement in its production by reducing its energy and material expenditure (pollution, paper, plastic etc.). On the level of waste management, all of the companies of the Division use authorised waste managers to deal with the waste they produce (mainly plastic, cardboard and organic product). With respect to certifications, Cediserhs, S.L. has also upgraded its quality certification by renewing the ISO 9001 and SERHS Distribution plans to certify all of the companies in the Division in 2013. SERHS HOTELS With respect to the division’s environmental report, in the Sant Hilari Rural Village work has been done on forest management by cleaning a large part of the forest surrounding the village and the adventure park. The beach hotels have also carried out a pilot test with the use of low consumption lighting and LED technology in order to achieve savings in electrical consumption in the Common areas. More specifically, in the SERHS Oasis Park hotel in

SERHSDNA annual report 2012


Calella, the cooling gas has been changed in the air-conditioning machinery in order to adapt them to European regulations and to ensure that they are not so highly polluting as the previous system on the ozone layer. Finally, at the Hotel SERHS El Montanyà Resort&Spa, the existing consumptions have been adjusted in order to reduce the cost.

SERHS TOURISM Within the Documentary Digitisation Plan and management efficiency in 2012, SERHS Tourism achieved nearly 80% of its billing without paper, directly online, following its objective to have 100% of its invoices in digital format by the end of the Strategic Plan 2014.

SERHS FOOD SERHS Food guarantees maximum safety and hygiene in food. The dishes are produced under rigorous diet control according to the strictest Food Safety and Hygiene regulations. We also have our own quality controls and certificates in the ISO 9001: 2008 standard of the Quality Management System, the ISO 22000: 2005 standard of the Food Innocuousness Management System, and the certificate of Environmental Management according to the ISO14001: 2004 standard. In mid-2012, the ISO 9001 certifications were achieved for the Vilassar factory and the ISO 14001 for the Eudec System in Calella Hospital. Also in 2012, positive results have enabled us to pass OHSAS 18001:2007 certification in the Prevention of Occupational Risks in the area of “Technical and administrative management of Catering services” carried out by DNV-Det Norske Veritas Business Assurance España, S.L. and certified by ENAC (National Certification Entity).

SERHS SERVICES These divisions promote the recycling of paper, printer cartridges and toners (the recycling procedure is established in the agreement that the Grup SERHS has with Ricoh). Centralised recycling is carried out of any electronic equipment in all of the companies of the Grup SERHS, either in collaboration with NGOs or taking the material directly to the disposal units. Both the new offices of SERHS New Technologies and the Data Processing Centre have rooms fitted out with programmed air-conditioning and heating to guarantee a suitable temperature, but also to ensure energy savings whenever possible (we optimise energy consumption as far as possible). The fact of intervening in automation/domestic robotic projects means that the SERHS New Technologies division helps the rest of the group companies to improve their energy efficiency and therefore to optimise their energy consumption. Regarding the introduction of technology to help to meet the objective of “Paper-free offices” we use multifunction devices, online collaboration tools (Google Apps) and digital invoicing has also been started up.

SERHS PROJECTS With the commercialisation of the E-water, an attempt is made to make customers aware of the possibility of caring for the environment by purchasing this such innovative apparatus. This is a cleaning and disinfection system that does not use chemical products. Numerous studies indicate that e-water or electrolyte water is more effective and safer than the alternatives such as acid compost and bleaches. As it is not toxic, it causes no irritation to eyes or skin. Furthermore, this apparatus gives considerable savings not only in cleaning, but also in water, as it does not have to be rinsed after disinfection.

Economic and financial information


Consolidated annual accounts

PresentATION

GENERAL EXPLANATION

This economic and financial information corresponding to the year closing at 31 December 2012, which we provide in the following, has been prepared from the accounting registers of Grup SERHS, S.A. and its subsidiaries in order to show the true and fair image of the equity, the financial situation and the results of the Consolidated Group.

For the effects of preparing the Annual Accounts for GRUP SERHS, S.A. and its subsidiaries (Consolidated Group), we must remember that the Group is made up of 59 active companies which, grouped by operative business divisions, has the following composition:

These consolidated figures are backed by the auditing of the company Faura-Casas Auditors-Consultors and, as revealed in the opinion which we attach further on, the annual accounts of 2012 express the true and fair image of the consolidated equity and financial situation of the Grup SERHS and its subsidiaries, and the results of their operations. In this dossier you can find: • •

In 2012 a business combination operation was carried out in three companies that already formed part of the consolidation perimeter, the merger by takeover by SERHS Fruits Distribució Global, SL (formerly Allelac, S.L.) with Costabonaser, S.L. and Fruites Pàmies, S.L. under a criterion of concentrating the distribution activities in the area, taking advantage of the synergies and rationalising the distribution process. Similarly, in 2012 the following companies left the Group consolidation perimeter: Gregalser, S.L. (by dissolution) and Hotel Maripins, S.L. (loss of direct and indirect participation of the Group) In application of current regulations as a result of the different participation percentages in the companies forming the consolidation perimeter, different consolidation procedures were used this year, which were: •

GLOBAL INTEGRATION method (Companies with a participation of over 50%). Consolidation method used in 2012 for all companies of the Group, mentioned above.

PLACEMENT IN EQUIVALENCE Method (Companies with a participation of between 20% and 50%) Companies consolidated by this method in 2012: “Viatges Sol i Esquí, SA” (travel agency), and “Baciverser, SL” (real estate company).

The Group’s functional currency is the Euro. Given the Group’s internationalisation in recent years, the Group now includes Brazilian and Moroccan companies in the consolidation perimeter and the transactions with foreign customers and suppliers using currencies outside the Euro have increased. This means that our Group is currently working with four kinds of different currencies: • Euros (EUR).- The principal working currency of our companies. • Dollars (USD).- The currency of certain operations with countries outside the EU. • Brazilian Reals (BRL).- The principal working currency of our companies in Brazil. • Dirhams (MAD).- The principal working currency of our companies in Morocco. The fact of working in different currencies and different accounting principles makes the consolidation process more complex as the financial statements have to be converted into a currency other than that of the Group, which is the Euro, which can cause conversion differences on the level of equity and on that of the results of the year due to exchange differences in the operations. Since 2010 the Grup SERHS has paid tax under the system of fiscal consolidation, with 36 subsidiaries coming into the consolidation perimeter in 2012.

Auditors’ Report at 31 December

AUDITORS’ REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL ACCOUNTS To the Shareholders of the GRUP SERHS S.A. We have audited the consolidated annual accounts of Grup Serhs S.A. and subsidiaries (Consolidated Group), which include the consolidated balance sheet at 31 December 2012, the consolidated profit and loss sheet, the changes to the consolidated net equity, the consolidated cash flow and the consolidated report corresponding to the financial year ending on this date. The administrators of the dominant company are responsible for drawing up the consolidated annual accounts according to the regulations of financial information applicable to the institution, which are identified in note 2.2 of the attached report, and particularly the accounting principles and criteria contained there. Our responsibility is to give an opinion on the mentioned consolidated annual accounts as a whole based on the work done in accordance with the regulations governing the account auditing activity in Spain, which requires the examination by selective tests of the evidence justifying the consolidated annual accounts and the evaluation of their presentation, the principles and criteria used and estimates made according to the applicable regulations on financial information. In our opinion the attached consolidated accounts for 2012, in all significant aspects, reflect the true and fair image of the consolidated wealth and consolidated financial situation of Grup Serhs S.A. and subsidiaries at 31 December 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows corresponding to the year ending on this date, according to the applicable regulations of financial information and particularly the accounting principles and criteria contained there. The attached management report for 2012 contains the explanations that the administrators consider appropriate on the situation of the consolidated group, the evolution of their business and other matters, and does not form an integral part of the consolidated annual accounts. We have checked that the accounts information contained in the mentioned consolidated management report coincides with that of the annual accounts for 2012. Our work as auditors is limited to checking the consolidated management report with the scope mentioned in this paragraph and does not include the revision of information other than that obtained from the accounting registers of Grup Serhs S.A. and subsidiaries.

Investment activity

The present circumstances in our surroundings makes us cautious when investing, without stopping the investments we believe essential for the future growth of our business. The volume of investments made by the Grup SERHS in 2012 was an overall amount of more than 7.8 million Euros. With the investment made this year, the overall investment made by the Grup SERHS in the five-year period 2008-2012 amounts to 78.0 million Euros (around 12,978 million of the former pesetas)

In 2012 we highlight the effect on the net equity (specifically the caption of value change adjustments) of the conversion into Euros of the financial statements of the Group companies working in another currency (especially Brazil). This caused a fall in the net equity of 4.7 million Euros over the previous year. Similarly, the fall in minority interests is partly due to the Hotel Maripins leaving the consolidation perimeter and also the effects of the increase of the direct and indirect participation by the Group in companies that already formed part of the consolidation perimeter, such as SERHS Fruits Distribució Global, S.L. and Nam-Nam, S.L. In recent years, we understand that we maintain an adequate financial structure with a correct balance between the use of long-term resources from Group operations and its shareholding and from indebtedness operations with third parties.

In this analysis, we highlight a deceleration in investment in recent years, meaning that the current circumstances have led us to be much more selective in investing and to wait for better times. However, we can see that the permanent resources continue to grow and have multiplied by almost three since 2002, a growth which in our own resources has amounted to 42.57 million Euros. We must also mention the evolution of the EBITDA and the CASHFLOW, which reflect the effects of the economic crisis since later 2008, but which are higher than those of 2002.

Operative revenue

The figure of consolidated operative revenue for the year closing at 31 December 2012 supposed a minimal fall of 1.57% over the previous year, which we consider satisfactory given the circumstances in this year caused by the crisis in which we are immersed. The effects of the fall in internal consumption have most been noticed in our SERHS Projects division and to a smaller extent in SERHS Tourism. The remaining divisions have withstood the repercussion of the fall in consumption we are suffering and have maintained their income with respect to the previous year.
