Europcar Mobility Group (Paris:EUCAR):

FY 2021 RESULTS HIGHLIGHTS

• Revenue: +28%¹ at €2,272m compared to 2020 (down -30% versus 2019 PF¹), driven by high RPD² and recovery in leisure customer demand from Q2 2021 onwards, in a context of limited fleet supply.

• Operating free cash flow conversion⁴: 49% (vs 42% in 2019)
• Strengthened balance sheet: 1.3x Corporate leverage (Corporate net debt to Corp. EBITDA⁴) and €240m Corporate net debt, building on the financial restructuring achieved in February 2021.

UPDATE ON THE TENDER OFFER

Europcar Mobility Group is continuing to cooperate with Green Mobility Holding in view of the completion of the tender offer.

The ongoing merger control procedure conducted by Green Mobility Holding with the European Commission, is making continuous progress:

• The Company and its Board of Directors have decided to exercise the Company’s option to extend the long-stop date until June 30th, 2022 under the tender offer support agreement entered into between the Company and Green Mobility Holding and the consortium members (Volkswagen, Attestor and Pon).
• The Company and the offeror, fully committed to completing the transaction, anticipate that the closing of the tender offer will occur during the second quarter of 2022. 

As a reminder, following the European Commission’s decision, the French financial market regulator (Autorité des marchés financiers) will announce the final date up to which shareholders of Europcar Mobility Group can tender their shares. In accordance with article 232-4 of the AMF general regulation, if the tender is successful, it will be automatically reopened within 10 trading days following the publication of the final result of the tender, under terms identical to those of the Offer. The AMF will publish the timetable for the reopening of the tender, which will remain open for at least 10 trading days.

2022 TRAJECTORY AND MID-TERM PROSPECTS

In the context of ongoing volumes constrained by fleet shortage, increased cost base (fleet and overall inflation) and unknown global impact arising from the Ukrainian conflict, the Group is not in a position to provide an outlook for 2022 and onwards.

However, the Group is well on track in the deployment of its strategic roadmap with already first concrete benefits in 2021. This will accelerate throughout 2022 with a focus on digitization of Customer experience and Operations. The Group is confident in its capacity to deliver long-term, sustainable and profitable growth.

Caroline Parot, CEO of Europcar Mobility Group, declared:

“In 2021, despite a slow start of the year due to COVID, the Group achieved a very good FY performance, both in terms of revenue recovery and profitability level.

This performance was possible thanks to the combined effects of our cost adaptation program "Reboot", the positive impact of our financial restructuring and the first deliveries of “Connect”, our strategic roadmap. From Q2 onwards, we were also able to efficiently leverage the “post-lockdown” appetite for travel, in a context of fleet scarcity.

In 2022, our overall focus will be on profitability versus volumes, as we anticipate a continuing tension between supply and demand. We also expect global inflation and the lasting semiconductor shortage, as well as the Ukrainian conflict, with unknown global consequences, to negatively impact our cost base and our business environment. We are therefore not in a position to provide any outlook for 2022 and onwards.

Nevertheless, as we move forward in the deployment of our “Connect” roadmap, with first concrete benefits already observable, we are confident in our capacity to deliver long-term, profitable growth, building our leadership on sustainable, shared, on-demand mobility services, which are at the core of the solutions our societies need.”

1. From revenue to MADC in 2021

Revenue in 2021: strong recovery, unusual pattern

After Q1 2021 heavily impacted by the pandemic, revenue started to recover, reducing progressively the gap versus 2019. Initially driven by the US, the recovery was then fueled by domestic markets in Europe, Southern Europe in particular with Leisure customers. Strong pricing fueled revenue, backed by constrained fleet volumes.

In all, the Group recorded a solid recovery in its revenue in 2021 compared to 2020, but unusual in terms of mix and seasonality pattern.

At constant exchange rates, revenue stood at €2,272m in 2021, up +28% versus 2020 with the breakdown by quarter as follow: -36% in Q1 2021, +89% in Q2 2021, +45% in Q3 2021 and +55% in Q4 2021.

At constant perimeter, compared to 2019, the Group reduced the gap throughout the year: -43% in Q1 2021, -41% in Q2 2021, -27% in Q3 2021 and -11% in Q4 2021. This translated into a -30% decline for the FY 2021.

Among the three Service Lines, Leisure recorded the strongest growth over the year 2021 (+65%) for CARS business. As for VANS & TRUCKS, revenue was up +12%, at €360m in 2021, returning to its 2019 levels (€362m).

Other income increased on higher petrol income and franchisee fees.

€m	Q4 2021	Q4 2020	% Change at constant currency	2021	2020	% Change at constant currency
Proximity	67.4	49.1	34.3%	270.3	247.9	8.0%
Professional	218.6	147.9	44.1%	713.9	612.7	15.1%
Leisure	238.9	102.2	126.2%	839.9	510.8	65.0%
CARS	524.9	299.2	70.7%	1,824.2	1,371.5	32.2%
VANS & TRUCKS	96.5	93.5	1.7%	360.3	318.5	12.3%
Rental Revenues (incl. Mobility)	621.4	392.7	54.5%	2,184.5	1,689.9	28.5%
Other income (incl. franchisee)	26.3	16.2	58.4%	87.7	71.0	23.3%
Total Revenues	647.7	409.0	54.6%	2,272.2	1,760.9	28.3%

MADC (Margin after Direct Costs): outstanding fleet management

In a context of vehicles scarcity, the Group deployed alternative solutions in terms of fleet management, using longer holding periods.

Compared to 2020, average fleet level dropped by -8% to ~232,000 vehicles in 2021.

Utilization rate jumped to 74.5% in 2021, well above 2020 level at 61.5%. As a result, fleet holding costs were down -10.8%, whilst revenue was up +28.3%, while also benefiting from favorable resale conditions on the second-hand market.

This, together with positive pricing, translated into a MADC that more than doubled over the year, to €854m (+119% at constant exchange rates) with a record 37.6% margin, +200 bps vs 2019.

2. From MADC to Adj. Corporate EBITDA: strong Corporate EBITDA margin in 2021

Corporate EBITDA stood at €284m in 2021, compared to a loss of -€172m in 2020 and €369m in 2019 PF, translating into Corporate EBITDA margin of 12.5% for the FY. Compared to 2019, the Group recorded a limited fall-through in Corporate EBITDA: €85m loss of EBITDA despite a -€966m drop in revenue.

As part of the cost adaptation plan, the Group continued to optimize its network and HQs costs in 2021 but without benefiting any longer from furlough measures from Q3 2021. This is reflected into a tight control of HQ and Network costs: down -27% on revenue down -30% in 2021 compared to 2019 PF.

3. From Adjusted Corporate EBITDA to Group net income

Depreciation expenses: down on the reduced Network.

Financial income and expenses not related to the fleet: down -25% to -€85m in 2021 vs -€112m at the same period last year, mainly coming from the removal of Corporate bonds, as part of the financial restructuring, and partially offset by new interest on state guaranteed loans and increased costs of the facilities (TLB and RCF) put in place post-restructuring.

Non-recurring expenses amounted to -€56m in 2021 (-€116m at the same period last year) with -€17m in Q4 2021 (-€86m in Q4 2020), as part of the restructuring costs linked to Reboot plan initiated in 2020, fees related to the contemplated offer and other one-off items.

Net financial restructuring costs: +€22m in 2021, recorded in Q1 2021.

Tax: +€8m in 2021 compared to +€41m in 2020. The change is mainly related to the level of deferred tax assets recognized on tax losses carried forward in particular with the losses generated in 2020.

Net income: the Group posted positive earnings of €29m in 2021 compared to -€645m in the same period last year.

CORPORATE FREE CASH FLOW, CORPORATE NET DEBT & FLEET DEBT

High Corporate Operating Cash Flow conversion

Corporate operating cash flow came in positive territory at €92m in 2021 compared to -€419m cash burn in 2020, leading to a high Operating free cash flow conversion of 49%⁵. This good conversion reflects the solid Corporate EBITDA performance, strong monitoring of non-fleet working capital, notably on collection activities, and tight control of cash expenses. Conversely, after a reduction in non-fleet capex in 2020 to preserve cash, the Group accelerated its capex in 2021 to support the deployment of Connect strategy.

All data in €m	2021	2020	2019 PF
Adjusted Corporate EBITDA (post IFRS-16)	283.6	(171.9)	388.7
Lease liability repayment (IFRS 16 Impact)	(95.2)	(104.2)	(110.4)
Adjusted Corporate EBITDA (pre IFRS-16)	188.4	(276.1)	278.3
Non-recurring expenses	(39.9)	(70.4)	(55.4)
Non-fleet capex	(60.6)	(33.3)	(75.4)
Change in NFWC and Provisions	25.2	(21.5)	0.7
Income tax paid	(21.1)	(17.2)	(29.9)
Corporate operating free cash flow	92.0	(418.6)	118.2

A sound financial position as at December 31^st, 2021

Corporate net debt increased to €240m as at December 31^st, 2021 from €93m proforma restructuring at December 31^st, 2020, mainly reflecting cash drain in Q1 2021.

As a reminder, in 2020 the Group reshaped its capital structure and reduced its indebtedness in a record time through €1.1bn corporate debt equitization and €255m new money equity injection on 26 February 2021, leading to Corporate net debt of €93m versus €1,426m reported.

Corporate liquidity accounted to €371m as at 31 December 2021 versus €587m proforma as at 31 December 2020 reflecting cash used for fleet financing. As at December 31, 2021, the Group has drawn €155m of the €225m fleet financing.

At December 31, 2021, Europcar Mobility Group holds a sound financial position, with an indebtedness ratio (Corporate net debt / Corporate EBITDA pre-IFRS 16) of 1.3x.

Successful refinancing fleet debt with sustainability-linked targets

Europcar Mobility Group successfully refinanced part of its fleet debt in Q3 2021 for a total of €2.2bn by proactively managing its debt profile: SARF refinancing for €1.7bn with a maturity at July 2024 and Senior Notes refinancing for €500m with a 3.0% coupon, maturing in November 2026. The gross proceeds from the Notes Offering, together with cash-on-hand, has been used for early redemption in full of the 2.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 issued by EC Finance plc (the “2022 Notes”).

CONNECT TRANSFORMATION PLAN

Designed in Q2/Q3 2020 then launched in 2021, the Connect strategic plan’s objective is to better address mobility use cases with a new go to market approach, enhancing and driving superior customer experience while creating value for the long-term to all stakeholders with a resilient and sustainable model.

Based on four enabling pillars (fleet, network, technology and organization/Talents & Culture), the Group delivered in 2021 the first steps of Connect transformation across Service Lines as well as on IT infrastructure:

• Leisure: enhanced customer digitalization with Key’n Go and Europcar Premium Pick Up.
• Proximity: successful launch of MyEuropcar in Germany in Q4 2021.
• Professionals: Launch of new innovative offer to facilitate the day-to-day life of our customers thanks to flexible, mid & long-term subscription solutions for companies and businesses for both Cars and Vans. Three new subscription solutions: “Flex”, “Superflex” and “Duo Flex”.
• Acceleration of the deployment of the connected vehicles: ~90% of the connected fleet in the UK and a growing proportion connected fleet in Vans & Trucks across countries.
• First steps in the launch of the Group’s new unified IT system in Portugal.

The Group is the first player to finance with sustainability-linked targets in the car rental sector. Europcar Mobility Group has established robust and ambitious sustainability performance targets, namely:

• Reducing carbon emissions for its car and van fleet to reach an average of 93 g CO2/km and 144 g CO₂/km respectively by the end of 2024

• Its target to have green vehicles (less than 50 g CO₂/km) account for 20% of its car and van fleet by the end of 2024.

Those two goals that constitute the sustainability performance targets applicable to the Sustainability-Linked Notes, will be tested for the first time in 2024. For the SARF, the Group has selected as green vehicles target as a percentage of the total Group’s fleet (20% of its car and van fleet by the end of 2024), which will be tested on an annual basis from 2022.

2022 TRAJECTORY AND MID-TERM PROSPECTS

Appendix 4: Impact IFRS 16 on Consolidated accounts, Adjusted Corporate EBITDA and Balance sheet

IFRS 16 is the standard on leases, with first application on January 1, 2019.

All leases contracts are accounted for in the balance sheet through an asset representing the “Right of Use” of the leased asset along the contract duration, and the corresponding liability, representing the lease payments obligation. Europcar Mobility Group is using the simplified retrospective method, according to which there is no restatement of comparative periods. Main impacts on 31 December 2021 consolidated statements are the following:
