Kasumiaruanne
3. kvartal 2009
Müügitulud
2009. aasta 3. kvartalis kasvas Ettevõtte tulu 12,1 miljoni euroni, mis on 8,6%
suurune kasv võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga. Põhitegevuse tulu koosneb
peamiselt era- ja juriidilistele klientidele osutatud veemüügi ning
reoveeteenuse tulust nii teeninduspiirkonnas kui väljaspool. Samuti sisaldab see
Tallinna linnalt saadavat sademetevee kogumise süsteemide käigushoidmise ja
hoolduse tasu. Alates 1. juulist 2009 sisalduvad väljaspool teeninduspiirkonda
osutatud teenuste müügituludes Maarduga sõlmitud 30-aastase opereerimislepingu
müügitulud.
Tulud veemüügist ja reoveeteenustest kasvasid võrreldes eelmise aasta 3.
kvartaliga 9,2% võrra 11,1 miljoni euroni, tulenevalt 12,8% suurusest
tariifitõusust alates 1. jaanuarist 2009 kombinatsioonis allkirjeldatud
teguritega.
Sektorite lõikes jagunesid muutused järgnevalt. Müük eraklientidele kasvas 9,1%
võrra 5,8 miljoni euroni. Müük äriklientidele teeninduspiirkonnas kasvas 1,3%
võrra 4,2 miljoni euroni. Müük klientidele väljaspool teeninduspiirkonda kasvas
72,0% võrra 0,81 miljoni euroni, peamiselt tulenedes Maardu opereerimislepingu
rakendumisest. Saadud ülereostustasu oli 0,27 miljonit eurot, kasvades 28,7%
võrreldes 2008. aasta sama perioodiga.
2009. aasta 3. kvartalis vähenesid eraklientide müügimahud 3,3% võrra võrreldes
2008. aasta 3. kvartaliga. Meie arvates selgitab seda majanduslik olukord
koosmõjus seniste tarbijate siirdumisega lähivaldadesse.
Müük juriidilistele klientidele teeninduspiirkonnas langes 10,2% võrreldes 2008.
aasta 3. kvartaliga. Enamus kaotatud müügimahust tuleneb ettevõtete poolt
rakendatud üleüldistest kokkuhoiumeetmetest või tootmise vähenemisest ning
ettevõtete siirdumisest Tallinna äärealadele.
2009. aasta 3. kvartalis kasvas sademetevee teenuse ja tuletõrjehüdrantide
süsteemide käigushoidmise ja hoolduse tasu 0,1% võrra 0,73 miljoni euroni
võrreldes 2008. aasta sama perioodiga. See on kooskõlas lepingu nõuete ja
sätetega, mille kohaselt sademetevee ja tuletõrjehüdrantide kulud arveldatakse
tegelike kulude ja töödeldud mahtude alusel.
Müüdud toodete ja teenuste kulu ja brutokasumi marginaal
Põhitegevusega seotud müüdud toodete ja teenuste kulu oli 2009. aasta 3.
kvartalis 4,5 miljonit eurot, so 0,35 miljonit eurot ehk 8,4% võrra rohkem kui
eelmise aasta samal perioodil.
2009. aasta 3. kvartalis ei saavutanud Ettevõte saastetasu osas
sooduskoefitsienti 0,5, mistõttu oli makstavate keskkonnamaksude suurus 3.
kvartalis 0,30 miljonit eurot, võrreldes 0,13 miljoni euroga 2008. aasta samal
perioodil. 2008. aasta 3. kvartalis saavutas Ettevõte sooduskoefitsiendi 0,5,
aga makstavat saastetasu on mõjutanud ka maksumäärade tõus 20% võrra, mida
osaliselt tasakaalustab puhastatud koguste langus. Kuna sissetuleva heitvee
reostuskoormus on jätkuvalt suurenenud, analüüsis Ettevõte hulga alternatiive
heitvee puhastamisprotsessi tõhustamiseks ning et kasutada optimaalselt
kemikaale saavutamaks 0,5-kordne koefitsient järgmistes kvartalites. 2009. aasta
3. kvartalis kinnitati otsus investeerida heitveepuhastuse järgmise etapi
ehitusse, mis võimaldab puhastada suurenenud reostuskoormust vastavalt nõutud
standarditele.
Kvartali kemikaalikulud olid 0,36 miljonit eurot, mis on 12,8% vähem kui 2008.
aasta samal perioodil. Saavutasime selle tulemuse puhastatud reovee hulga,
doseeritud kemikaalide ja eriti soodsate kemikaalihindade kombinatsioonis.
Elektrikulud kasvasid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis võrreldes eelmise aasta sama
perioodiga 0,02 miljoni euro ehk 4,1% võrra, kõrgema elektrihinna mõjul.
Palgakulud kasvasid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis võrreldes eelmise aasta sama
perioodiga 0,10 miljoni euro ehk 11,0% võrra, seoses AS Maardu Vesi 23 töötaja
ülevõtmisega.
Kulum vähenes 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga
0,001 miljoni euro ehk 0,3% võrra.
Transpordikulud vähenesid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis võrreldes eelmise aasta sama
perioodiga 0,04 miljoni euro ehk 13,1% võrra, kütusehindade alanemise ning
masinate rendihindade vähendamise koosmõjul.
Muud müüdud toodete ja teenuste kulud kasvasid 0,14 miljoni euro ehk 34,3% võrra
võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga, seoses Maardus opereerimise kuludega.
Ülaltoodud mõjude tulemusena oli 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis ettevõtte brutokasum
7,6 miljonit eurot, mis on 0,61 miljoni euro või 8,7% võrra rohkem kui 2008.
aasta 3. kvartali 7,0 miljoni euro suurune brutokasum.
Ärikulud ja ärikasumi marginaal
Turustuskulud vähenesid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis võrrelduna 2008. aasta 3.
kvartaliga 0,02 miljoni euro võrra 0,16 miljoni euroni. Seda mõjutas peamiselt
kulude kokkuhoid, mis uue struktuuri kohaselt jaotas osa kulusid ümber müüdud
toodete ja teenuste kulu alla 2009. aastal.
2009. aasta 3. kvartalis kasvasid üldhalduskulud 0,03 miljonit eurot 0,79
miljoni euroni.
Mitmete sisseostetavate teenuste lepingute õnnestunud läbirääkimiste tulemusena
on saavutatud uute, soodsate hindade rakendamine enamikele kuluartiklitele.
Juhtkonna eesmärgiks on efektiivsust veelgi tõsta protsesside ja töö
organiseerituse põhjaliku läbivaatuse tulemusena.
Muud äritulud/kulud
Äritulud/kulud võrkude rajamistest ning sihtfinantseerimisest andsid 2009. aasta
3. kvartalis tulu 0,36 miljonit eurot võrreldes 0,36 miljoni euro suuruse tuluga
2008. aasta 3. kvartalis. Muud äritulud/kulud andsid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis
kokku kulu 0,01 miljonit eurot võrreldes 0,06 miljoni euro suuruse kuluga 2008.
aasta 3. kvartalis, peamiselt halvenenud võlgade kogumise tõttu, mida
tasakaalustasid saadud viivised 2009. aastal. Siiski peaks arvestama, et üle 99%
võlgadest kogutakse õigeaegselt.
Ülaltoodud mõjude tulemusena oli ettevõtte ärikasum 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis 7,0
miljonit eurot, mis on 0,66 miljonit eurot rohkem kui 6,4 miljoni euro suurune
ärikasum 2008. aasta 3. kvartalis. Võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga
kasvas ärikasum 10,4%.
Finantskulud
Ettevõtte neto finantskulud olid 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis 0,46 miljonit eurot,
mis on 0,19 miljoni euro ehk 29,5% võrra vähem kui 2008. aasta 3. kvartalis.
Võrrelduna 2008. aasta 3. kvartaliga on Ettevõtte intressikulud langenud 58,9%
võrra, Euribor-i määra languse tõttu ning kuna vahetasime fikseeritud
intressimääraga (4,19% + Euribor-i määr) laenu ujuva intressimääraga laenu
vastu. Ettevõte otsustas vähendada ujuva intressiga laenu riske pikas perioodis
ning sõlmis 2009. aasta mais kolm intressi swapi lepingut, iga leping 15
miljonit eurot. Kõik lepingud hakkavad kehtima tulevikus, 30 miljoni euro
suurusele põhisummale kohaldatavad lepingud hakkavad kehtima 30. novembril 2009
ja ülejäänud 15 miljoni euro suuruse põhisumma osas käivitub leping 28. mail
2010. Kuna hetkel on nende lepingute ennustatav õiglane väärtus negatiivne, siis
nendega seotud provisjonid vähendavad intressikulude vähenemise ning teenitud
finantstulude mõju 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis.
Maksustamiseelne kasum
Ettevõtte maksustamiseelne kasum oli 2009. aasta 3. kvartalis 6,6 miljonit
eurot, so 0,86 miljonit eurot rohkem kui 5,7 miljoni euro suurune
maksustamiseelne kasum 2008. aasta 3. kvartalis.
2009. aasta 9 kuu tulemused
2009. aasta 9 kuuga kasvas Ettevõtte tulu 36,5 miljoni euroni, mis on 6,2%-line
kasv võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga. Veemüügi ja reoveeteenuse tulu oli
33,6 miljonit eurot, mis on 6,2% võrra enam kui 2008. aasta 9 kuuga.
Ettevõtte maksustamiseelne kasum oli 2009. aasta 9 kuuga 17,6 miljonit eurot, so
0,40 miljonit eurot enam kui 17,2 miljoni euro suurune maksustamiseelne kasum
2008. aasta 9 kuuga.
Ettevõtte 2009. aasta 9 kuu puhaskasum oli 13,7 miljonit eurot, mis on 0,72
miljonit eurot enam kui 2008. aasta sama perioodi puhaskasum suuruses 13,0
miljonit eurot.
Bilanss
2009. aasta 9 kuu jooksul investeeris Ettevõte põhivarasse 9,6 miljonit eurot.
Lõpetamata-, materiaalne- ja immateriaalne põhivara oli 2009. aasta 30.
septembri seisuga 140,5 miljonit eurot. Käibevara suurenes 9 kuuga 1,2 miljoni
euro võrra 23,4 miljoni euroni, nõuded ostjate vastu vähenesid 0,15 miljoni euro
võrra. 2009. aasta 9 kuuga on rahajääk pangas suurenenud 1,4 miljoni euro võrra.
Lühiajalised kohustused vähenesid 9 kuu jooksul 4,3 miljoni euro võrra 8,0
miljoni euroni. See tulenes peamiselt EBRD laenu tagasimakse tõttu 5,2 miljoni
euro võrra vähenenud Pikaajaliste pangalaenude tagasimaksetest järgmistel
perioodidel, 0,38 miljoni euro võrra vähenenud Hankijate võlgadest ning 1,1
miljoni euro võrra suurenenud Ostjate ettemaksetest.
Ettevõte hoiab jätkuvalt oma finantsvõimendust sihiks võetud 50% tasemel. 2009.
aasta 30. septembri seisuga oli kohustuste osakaal varast 50,7%. Pikaajalised
kohustused olid 2009. aasta septembri lõpu seisuga 75,1 miljonit eurot, mis
koosnes peaaegu täielikult kolme pikaajalise pangalaenu jäägist. Hetke kogu
võimalik laenuressurss on 95 miljonit eurot, millest Ettevõte on kasutanud 75
miljonit eurot. Hetke kaalutud keskmine intressimäär on 0,55%, kogu võimaliku
laenuressursi puhul oleks intressimäär 0,67%.
Rahakäive
2009. aasta 9 kuu jooksul oli Ettevõtte äritegevuse rahakäive 19,3 miljonit
eurot, mis on 2,5 miljonit eurot vähem kui 2008. aasta samal perioodil. Langus
Ettevõtte äritegevuse rahakäibes tuleneb 1,7 miljoni euro suurusest ühekordsest
EBRD laenuga seotud finantskulu maksest, mida kajastati 2. kvartali aruandes.
Lisaks sellele mõjutas 2008. aasta 1. kvartalit positiivselt 2007. aasta lõpus
väljastatud suurte teenusarvete laekumine. Perioodilise põhitegevuse ärikasum on
jätkuvalt peamine tegur ettevõtte äritegevuse rahakäibe kasvus.
2009. aasta 9 kuu investeerimistegevuse raha sissevool oli 0,90 miljonit eurot,
so 0,44 miljonit eurot enam kui 2008. aasta 9 kuu jooksul. Selle peamisteks
põhjusteks olid vähenenud ehitushinnad ning ehituste ajastus. 2009. aasta 9 kuu
jooksul investeeris Ettevõte 9,6 miljonit eurot - 7,6 miljonit eurot võrkudesse
(sh 4,9 miljonit eurot laiendamiseks ja arendamiseks), 0,82 miljonit eurot
Paljassaare sade- ja reovee puhastusjaama uuendamiseks, 0,28 miljonit eurot vee
kvaliteedi säilitamiseks (Ülemiste veepuhastusjaam ja toorvee kvaliteet) ja 0,91
miljonit eurot muudeks investeeringuteks (IT, investeeringute väärtuse
säilimine, veemõõtjad jne).
Raha väljavool finantstegevusest oli 2009. aasta 9 kuuga 18,8 miljonit eurot
võrreldes 2008. aasta 9 kuu 20,1 miljoni euro suuruse raha väljavooluga. Antud
summad peegeldavad vastavate aastate dividendimaksete suurust ning nendega
seotud maksukulusid. Ettevõte maksis tagasi ja refinantseeris täielikult EBRD
laenu, tulenevalt vajadusest finantseerida ulatuslike torustike rajamise
programmiga seotud investeeringute väljaminekuid kuni 2011. aastani, nagu
eelpool kirjeldatud.
Eelnevate tegurite mõjul oli raha sissevool 2009. aasta 9 kuu jooksul 1,4
miljonit eurot võrrelduna 2,1 miljoni euro suuruse raha sissevooluga 2008. aasta
9 kuuga. Raha ja raha ekvivalentide saldo oli 2009. aasta 30. septembri seisuga
16,1 miljonit eurot.
Töötajad
2009. aasta 3. kvartali lõpus töötas ettevõttes 349 töötajat, võrreldes 323
töötajaga 2008. aasta 3. kvartali lõpus. Keskmised täistöökohaga töötajate arvud
olid vastavalt 336 töötajat 2009. aastal ja 310 töötajat 2008. aastal. Keskmiste
täistöökohaga töötajate arv on tõusnud peamiselt Maardus opereerimise tõttu.
Dividendid ja aktsiahinna muutused
2008. aasta majandustulemuste põhjal maksis Ettevõte 14 700 318 eurot dividende.
Sellest 639 eurot maksti B-aktsia omanikule ja 14 699 679 eurot, so 0,73 eurot
aktsia kohta A-aktsia omanikele. Dividendid maksti välja 2009. aasta 12. juunil
vastavalt 01. juunil 2009 fikseeritud aktsionäride nimekirjale.
AS Tallinna Vesi on noteeritud OMX Main Baltic Marketil kauplemiskoodiga TVEAT
ja ISIN EE3100026436.
2009. aasta 30. septembri seisuga olid üle 5%-list otseosalust omavad AS
Tallinna Vesi aktsionärid:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| United Utilities (Tallinn) BV | 35.3% |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Tallinna Linn | 34.7% |

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parvus AM on deklareerinud, et nende osalus ületab 10% ning AKO Capital on
deklareerinud enda kaudseks osaluseks üle 5% aktsiakapitalist.
Kvartali lõpus, 30. septembril 2009, oli AS Tallinna Vesi aktsia sulgemishind
10.50 eurot, mis on 25,0% kõrgem võrreldes kvartali alguses olnud 8.40 eurot.
Samal perioodil OMX Tallinn indeks tõusis 48,8%.
Põhitegevusega seotud arengud 2009. aastal
Ettevõte alustas alates 1. juulist 2009 opereerimist Maardus. Leping tagab
Maardu elanikele ligipääsu Ettevõtte poolt pakutavale Euroopa Liidu nõuetele
vastavale joogiveele ja heitvee puhastusele. Antud leping on esimene sellelaadne
ja näitab teiste linnade ja omavalitsuste valmidust teha koostööd AS-iga
Tallinna Vesi enda kogukonna nimel.
3. kvartalis esitati Ettevõte Ettevõtluse Arendamise Sihtasutuse ja Eesti
Kaubandus-tööstuskoja korraldatud konkursil konkurentsivõimelisima ettevõtte
tiitlile ning septembris see tiitel Ettevõttele ka omistati.
Langenud müügi numbrite tõttu on esimesed 9 kuud olnud Ettevõtte jaoks rasked.
Meil on siiski heameel teatada, et algatatud kulude kokkuhoiu programm ning
edukad lepingute läbirääkimised on suutnud kompenseerida langust tuludes.
3. kvartalis esitas Ettevõte taotluse vee- ja kanalisatsiooniteenuse tariifide
muutmiseks 1. jaanuarist 2010. Tallinna linnavalitsus kiitis -0,9% hinnamuutuse
heaks 30. septembril 2009. Tariifimuutus hakkab kehtima 1. jaanuarist 2010 ning
koosneb -0,9% THI muutusest, 0% K-koefitsiendist ning 0% seadusemuudatusest.
Tariifi muutus on -0,9% teeninduspiirkonnas ning sellelähedane väljaspool
teeninduspiirkonda, olenevalt individuaalsetest lepingutest ümbritsevate
omavalitsustega.
16. septembril allkirjastas Ettevõte Tallinna linnaga Teenuslepingu muudatuse.
Allkirjastatud muudatus kajastab ehitushindade vähenemist, praegust
makromajanduslikku olukorda ning pooltevahelist head koostööd. Ettevõtte poolt
kantavate ehituskulude languse tõttu väheneb ka Tallinna linna poolt
kanalisatsioonivõrgu laiendamise eest ettevõttele makstav hüvitis. Tallinna linn
tasub 2009. aasta novembris ja detsembris arenduskomponendi kuluna 0 eurot
kuupmeetri eest ning 2010 jaanuarist alates 0,56 eurot kuupmeetri eest senise
0,58 euro asemel. Selle vähenduse tulemusel on osapooled kokku leppinud
kompensatsiooniperioodi lühendamises kolme ja poole aasta võrra juunini 2014.
Pooled on samuti kokku leppinud sademeveesüsteemi ehitamise maksetingimustes,
mille esialgse versiooni kohaselt tasus Tallinna linn igal aastal 3,4 miljonit
eurot 2008-2011 kava ehituskulude baasil, kuid nüüdse kokkuleppe kohaselt tasub
Tallinna linn sademeveesüsteemi ehitamise eest nelja-aastase maksegraafikuga
kuni 2012. aasta lõpuni. Võrreldes 2007. aasta novembris sõlmitud esialgse
lepinguga ei ole nende muudatuste mõju ettevõtte majandustulemustele
märkimisväärne, samuti ei mõjuta need muudatused kanalisatsioonisüsteemi
väljaehitamist aastaks 2011.
Tuginedes esialgsele projektile ning tasuvusanalüüsile kiitis Ettevõte 3.
kvartalis heaks investeeringu Biofiltrisse. Järgneva kahe aasta jooksul
investeerib AS Tallinna Vesi ligi 12,8 miljonit eurot Paljassaare
reoveepuhastusjaama. Aastatel 2010-2011 uuendatakse tahkeid aineid eemaldavaid
võrestikke, elektrialajaamu ning ehitatakse välja täiendav puhastusetapp,
eesmärgiga parandada veelgi heitvee puhtust ning eemaldada reoveest rohkem
lämmastikku. Tegemist on nii efektiivsust kui ka keskkonnahoidu suurendava
investeeringuga, sest tõhusam lämmastiku reoveest eemaldamine parandab veelgi
Soome lahe ning Läänemere puhtust. Paljassaare reoveepuhastusjaama täiendava
puhastusetapina rajatakse biofilter, mille esimesed puhastusmoodulid valmivad
2011. aasta esimeses pooles. Biofilter kujutab endast reoveepuhastusjaamas üht
moodulite blokki, kus mikroorganismidest koosneva biokile abil puhastatakse
sellest läbinõrguv reovesi. Biofiltri ülesandeks on lämmastiku eemaldamine
reoveest ning selle saavutamiseks vajavad mikroorganismid metanooli. Esialgse
kava kohaselt rajatakse 8 sellist moodulit, kuid töödeldava reoveekoguse
kasvades on võimalik lisada täiendavaid mooduleid vastavalt vajadusele.

Profit and Loss Statement
3rd quarter 2009
Sales
In the 3rd quarter of 2009 the Company's total sales increased, year on year, by
8.6% to 12.1 mln EUR. Sales in the main operating activity principally comprise
of sales of water and treatment of wastewater to domestic and commercial
customers within and outside of the service area, and fees received from the
City of Tallinn for operating and maintaining the storm water system. Starting
from 1 July 2009 the sales to the outside service area includes sales from a 30
year O&M contract signed with the city of Maardu.
Sales of water and wastewater services were 11.1 mln EUR, a 9.2% increase
compared to the 3rd quarter of 2008, resulting from the 12.8% increase in
tariffs from 1 January 2009 for the Company's residential and commercial
customers combined with the factors described below.
Included within this amount were the following changes by sectors. Within the
service area, sales to residential customers increased by 9.1% to 5.8 mln EUR.
Sales to commercial customers increased by 1.3% to 4.2 mln EUR. Sales to
customers outside of the service area increased by 72.0% to 0.81 mln EUR, mainly
due to the implementation of the Maardu's operating contract. Over pollution
fees received were 0.27 mln EUR, a 28.7% increase compared to the 3rd quarter of
2008.
In the 3rd quarter of 2009, the volumes sold to residential customers dropped
3.3%. We believe that this is due to the combination of the economic recession
and the fact that people have continued to move to the surrounding areas of
Tallinn.
The volumes sold to commercial customers inside the service area decreased by
10.2% compared to the relevant period in 2008. The majority of the reduction in
sales volumes in Tallinn is a result of the macroeconomic impact of companies
reducing their production volumes and implementing efficiency measures,
supplemented by companies moving to surrounding municipalities.
The sales from the operation and maintenance of the storm water and fire-hydrant
system increased by 0.1% to 0.73 mln EUR in the 3rd quarter of 2009 compared to
the same period in 2008. This is in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the contract whereby the storm water and fire hydrant costs are invoiced based
on actual costs and volumes treated.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin
The cost of goods sold for the main operating activity was 4.5 mln EUR in the
3rd quarter of 2009, an increase of 0.35 mln EUR or 8.4% from the equivalent
period in 2008.
In the 3rd quarter of 2009 the Company did not achieve the beneficial 0.5
coefficient for pollution tax, and the amount of pollution tax payable was 0.30
mln EUR compared to 0.13 mln EUR in 3rd quarter of 2008. In the 3rd quarter of
2008 we achieved the 0.5 coefficient, but the increase in pollution tax payable
is also impacted by the increase in tax rates year on year by 20%, partly offset
by the reduction in treatment volumes. As the pollution level of the incoming
sewage has continued to increase the Company has analyzed a range of
alternatives to improve the waste water treatment processes and to use the
optimum level of chemicals to achieve the 0.5 coefficient in the forthcoming
quarters. In the 3rd quarter of 2009 an investment into an additional stage of
waste water treatment was approved, which will enable the increasing pollution
load to be treated to the levels required to achieve these standards.
Chemical costs were 0.36 mln EUR, representing a 12.8% decrease compared to the
corresponding period in 2008. This result is the combination of volumes treated,
chemicals dosed and the particularly favorable price impact.
Electricity costs increased by 0.02 mln EUR or 4.1% in the 3rd quarter of 2009
compared to the 3rd quarter of 2008 due to higher electricity prices.
Salary expenses increased in the 3rd quarter of 2009, year on year, by 0.10 mln
EUR or 11.0% mainly due to the take over of 23 employees from Maardu Vesi.
Depreciation charges decreased in the 3rd quarter of 2009 by 0.001 mln EUR or
0.3% year on year.
Transport costs decreased by 0.04 mln EUR, or 13.1% year on year, due to the
combination of the reduction in fuel prices and reduced rates for rented
machines.
Other cost of goods sold in the main operating activity increased 0.14 mln EUR,
or 34.3% year on year, due to the costs of operating in Maardu.
As a result of all of the above the Company's gross profit for the 3rd quarter
of 2009 was 7.6 mln EUR, which is an increase of 0.61 mln EUR, or 8.7%, compared
to the gross profit of 7.0 mln EUR for the 3rd quarter of 2008.
Operating Costs and Operating Margin
Marketing expenses decreased by 0.02 mln EUR to 0.16 mln EUR during the 3rd
quarter of 2009 compared to the corresponding period in 2008. This is mainly the
result of the efficiency program, which via the implementation of a new
structure, reallocated part of the costs to the cost of goods sold and general
administration expenses in 2009.
In the 3rd quarter of 2009 the General administration expenses increased by 0.03
mln EUR to 0.79 mln EUR year on year.
Via successful negotiation of a range of outsourced service contracts new,
beneficial rates have been achieved for most of the cost items. The management's
target is to achieve further efficiencies through a thorough review of processes
and work organization.
Other net income/expenses
Income/expenses from constructions and government grants totaled a net income of
0.36 mln EUR, in the 3rd quarter of 2009 compared to a net income of 0.36 mln
EUR in the 3rd quarter of 2008. The rest of the other income/expenses totaled an
expense of 0.01 mln EUR in the 3rd quarter of 2009 compared to an expense of
0.06 mln EUR in the 3rd quarter of 2008, from a combination of slightly worsened
debt collection balanced by received penalties in 2009. It should be noted
however that, more than 99% of debt is collected in a timely manner.
As a result of all of the above the Company's operating profit for the 3rd
quarter of 2009 was 7.0 mln EUR, an increase of 0.66 mln EUR compared to an
operating profit of 6.4 mln EUR achieved in the 3rd quarter of 2008. Year on
year the operating profit has increased 10.4%.
Financial expenses
Net Financial expenses were 0.46 mln EUR in the 3rd quarter of 2009, which is a
decrease of 0.19 mln EUR or 29.5% compared to the 3rd quarter of 2008. The
Company's interest costs have decreased by 58.9% compared to the 3rd quarter of
2008 as a result of the reduction in Euribor rates and the replacement of the
loan with a fixed interest rate (4.19% + Euribor rate), by loans with floating
interest rates. The Company has still decided to mitigate the floating interest
risk in the long term and in May 2009 we concluded 3 interest swap agreements,
each with a principal value of 15 mln EUR. All contracts have forward start
dates, for a base amount of 30 mln EUR, the forward start date begins on 28
November 2009, and for a base amount of 15 mln EUR the forward start date begins
on 28 May 2010. At this point in time the estimated fair value of these swap
contracts is negative, therefore the provisions related to the Swap fair value
partly offset the interest costs savings and the increase in financial income
earned during the 3rd quarter of 2009.
Profit Before Tax
The Company's profit before taxes for the 3rd quarter of 2009 was 6.6 mln EUR,
which is 0.86 mln EUR higher than the profit before taxes of 5.7 mln EUR for the
3rd quarter of 2008.
Results for the 1st nine months of 2009
During the first nine months of 2009 the Company's total sales increased, year
on year, by 6.2% to 36.5 mln EUR. Sales of water and wastewater treatment were
33.6 mln EUR, a 6.2% increase compared to the first nine months of 2008.
The Company's profit before taxes for the first nine months of 2009 was 17.6 mln
EUR, which is 0.40 mln EUR higher than the profit before taxes of 17.2 mln EUR
in the relevant period in 2008.
The Company's net profit for the first nine months of 2009 was 13.7 mln EUR,
which is 0.72 mln EUR higher than the net profit of 13.0 mln EUR in the
equivalent period in 2008.
Balance sheet
During the first nine months of 2009 the Company invested 9.6 mln EUR into fixed
assets. Non-current assets were 140.5 mln EUR at 30 September 2009. Current
assets increased by 1.2 mln EUR to 23.4 mln EUR in the first nine months of the
year, with customer receivables decreasing by 0.15 mln EUR and cash at bank
increasing by 1.4 mln EUR.
Current liabilities decreased by 4.3 mln EUR to 8.0 mln EUR in the first nine
months of the year. This was mainly due to decreases in the Current portion of
long-term borrowings by 5.2 mln EUR, as a result of the repayment of the EBRD
loan in May 2009, a 0.38 mln EUR decrease in Trade payables, and an increase in
Customer prepayments of 1.1 mln EUR.
The Company continues to maintain its leverage level within its target range of
50% with total liabilities to total capital employed of 50.7% as of 30 September
2009. Long-term liabilities stood at 75.1 mln EUR at the end of September 2009,
consisting almost entirely of the outstanding balance of three long-term bank
loans. The current total available loan facility is 95 mln EUR, from which we
have drawn down 75 mln EUR. The current weighted average interest margin is
0.55%, for the total available facility the margin is 0.67%.
Cash flow
During the first nine months of 2009, the Company generated 19.3 mln EUR of cash
flows from operating activities, a decrease of 2.5 mln EUR compared to the
corresponding period in 2008. The reduction in operating cash flows is due to
the payment of the one off financial costs of 1.7 mln EUR related to the
repayment of the EBRD loan as discussed in the 2nd quarter report. In addition
the first quarter of 2008 was positively impacted by proceeds of some big
services invoices issued at end of 2007. Underlying operating profit still
continues to be the main driver for growth in operating cash flows.
In the first nine months of 2009 net cash inflows from investing activities were
0.90 mln EUR, which is 0.44 mln EUR more than in 2008. This is mainly due to the
lower construction prices and timing of constructions. In 2009 the Company
invested 9.6 mln EUR - 7.6 mln EUR on networks (including 4.9 mln EUR on
extension and developments), 0.82 mln EUR at Paljassaare wastewater treatment
plant and sludge treatment, 0.28 mln EUR on water quality (Ülemiste water
treatment plant and raw water) and 0.91 mln EUR for other investments (IT,
capital maintenance, meters, etc).
The cash outflows from financing activities were 18.8 mln EUR during the first
nine months of 2009 compared to a cash outflow of 20.1 mln EUR during the same
nine months of 2008, representing the payouts of the dividend and associated
taxes. The Company repaid and fully refinanced the loan of EBRD due to the need
to finance the extensive network extension program and related investment
outflows until 2011.
As a result of all of the above factors, the total cash inflow in the nine
months of 2009 was 1.4 mln EUR compared to a cash inflow of 2.1 mln EUR in the
nine months of 2008. Cash and cash equivalents stood at 16.1 mln EUR as at 30
September 2009.
Employees
At the end of the 3rd quarter of 2009, the total number of employees was 349
compared to 323 at the end of the 3rd quarter of 2008. The full time equivalent
(FTE) was respectively 336 in 2009 compared to the 310 in 2008. The increase in
FTE is primarily due to Maardu.
Dividends and share performance
Based on the results of the 2008 financial year, the Company paid 14,700,318 EUR
of dividends. Of this 639 EUR was paid to the owner of the B-share
and 14,699,679 EUR, i.e. 0.73 EUR per share to the owners of the A-shares. The
dividends were paid out on 12 June 2009, based on the list of shareholders,
which was fixed on 01 June 2009.

Operational highlights in the nine months of 2009
The Company started operations in Maardu from 1st July 2009, to provide water,
wastewater and operations and maintenance. This will provide the citizens of
Maardu with an access to Tallinna Vesi's EU compliant water and wastewater. This
contract is the first of its kind and demonstrates the willingness of other
cities and municipalities to partner with Tallinna Vesi for the benefit of their
communities.
In the 3rd quarter the company was nominated for the most competitive service
company in Estonia and in September 2009 we won the award issued by the
Enterprise Estonia foundation and Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Due to fall in sales volumes it has been a challenging nine months for the
Company. We are still pleased to report that the cost efficiency programs we
have initiated and successful contract negotiations have enabled us to
compensate the fall in revenues.
The Company submitted the application for the tariff change from 1st January
2010 in the 3rd quarter. The City Government approved the -0.9% tariff decrease
for water and wastewater services on 30 September 2009. The tariff change is
applicable from 1st January 2010 and consists of -0.9% of CPI decrease, 0% of
k-coefficient and 0% of change of law. The -0.9% tariff change is applicable in
the main service area and is similar outside the main service area, depending
still on individual contracts with the municipalities.
On 16th September the Company signed an amendment to the Services Agreement with
the City of Tallinn. This amendment reflects the reduction in construction
prices, the current macroeconomic situation and the good cooperation between the
parties. As a result of the reduction in construction prices incurred by the
Company the compensation payable by the City of Tallinn for sewerage extensions
will reduce, the City will now pay a development component of 0.0 EUR per m3 in
November and December 2009 and 0.56 EUR per m3 thereafter instead of current
0.58 EUR per m3. As a consequence of this reduction the parties have agreed to
shorten the compensation period by 3.5 years to June 2014. AS Tallinna Vesi has
also agreed to a change in the payment profile for storm water constructions.
Initially the City paid 3.4 mln EUR each year based on the construction costs of
the program during 2008-2011, whereas now they will pay based on a four year
payment plan until the end of 2012. Compared to the original contract signed in
November 2007 the impact of all these changes is not material on the financial
results of the Company. None of this will affect the construction of the
sewerage system, which is still planned to be completed by 2011.
In the 3rd quarter the Company approved based on initial design and cost benefit
analysis the investment into Biofilter. Over the next two years AS Tallinna Vesi
intends to invest almost 12.8 mln EUR at its Paljassaare Wastewater Treatment
Plant. The investments in 2010-2011 include the renewal of the screening
equipment, replacement of electrical substations and major investment in an
additional treatment stage to further improve the effluent quality and remove
more nitrogen from the wastewater. The project is an investment into improved
efficiency and towards a more sustainable environment, as the more effective
removal of nitrogen from the wastewater improves the cleanliness of the Gulf of
Finland and the Baltic Sea. A biofilter has been selected as the additional
treatment stage and the first treatment modules of the biofilter should be ready
in the 1st half of 2011. The biofilter is a block of modules added as an
additional treatment stage, where intensive wastewater treatment is achieved
using microorganisms to clean the wastewater flowing through it. The main
function of the biofilter is to remove nitrogen from the wastewater and the
microorganisms use methanol to achieve this. The design is for 8 of these
modules to be constructed, future increase in loads could be treated by adding
additional modules.
