Wimm-Bill-Dann Implements State-of-the Art IT System

MOSCOW--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods [NYSE: WBD], the largest Russian producer of healthy food products, today announced the launch of a major project to implement a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) information system. The company has chosen Oracle, the leading global provider of enterprise software, as vendor. The project, which will be the largest such project in the Russian food industry, will allow Wimm-Bill-Dann to substantially increase the efficiency of its performance.

The project will encompass all key areas of corporate activity, including finance, production, purchasing, logistics and distribution at all of Wimm-Bill-Danns enterprises in Russia. The optimization of these processes will create a reliable foundation for making quick and effective management decisions and ensure they are seen through to completion. In addition, the new ERP system will make the companys financial reporting to both Russian and international accounting standards even more transparent and timely.

Over last 15 years the steady expansion of production facilities and trading affiliates allowed Wimm-Bill-Dann to become a leading food company in Russia. The further development of the company will require not just growth in its sheer scale but also the more efficient use of resources and an increase in the transparency of business processes, noted Tony Maher, the CEO of Wimm-Bill-Dann.

Leading international consulting companies are participating in the project. Deloitte is advising on the development of the business model, with BearingPoint engaged in the implementation of the information system. The vendor of the ERP solution is providing Oracle E-Business Suite software and technical support. The primary stage of the installation of the ERP system is due to be completed by the end of 2009.

Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC was founded in 1992 and is the largest manufacturer of dairy products and a leading producer of juices and beverages in Russia and the CIS. The company produces dairy products (main brands include: Domik v Derevne, Neo, 2Bio, 33 Korovy, Chudo and more), juices (J7, Lubimy Sad, 100% Gold), Essentuki mineral water and Agusha baby food. The company has 37 manufacturing facilities in Russia, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Georgia with over 21,000 employees. Wimm-Bill-Dann became the first Russian dairy producer to receive approval from the European Commission to export its products into the European Union.

In 2007 Standard & Poor's Governance Services confirmed WBD's Corporate Governance Score 7+ (7.7 accordingly on the Russian national scale), which makes the Company's score the highest rating in Russia. That result reflects the effective work of the Board of Directors and, in particular, the real influence of independent directors in the decision-making process and the adherence of the controlling shareholders to the highest standards of corporate governance.

ST PETERSBURG, Russia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC [NYSE: WBD], the leading producer of health and wellness foods in Russia and the CIS, today announced the opening of a diary mega-farm just outside St Petersburg. Wimm-Bill-Dann is putting a lot of effort in developing its own farms in order to ensure the high quality of the whole manufacturing chain from raw milk to the final product.

The mega-farm complex was built in Volosovsk District near St Petersburg, on the base of the Trud collective farm, which was acquired by Wimm-Bill-Dann in 2005. The new farm is one of the most advanced livestock facilities not only in Northwest Russia but in the whole of the country. Wimm-Bill-Dann invested more than US$12 million in the construction of the mega-farm, which is designed for 1,200 Holstein milking cows.

The farm is equipped with state-of-the-art Swedish equipment made by the DeLaval company. Due to the innovative method of maintaining cows in free stalls and the constant monitoring of the health of the animals with the aid of computer equipment, Wimm-Bill-Danns experts anticipate achieving productivity of 8,500 kilograms of high-quality milk per forage cow.

The construction of the mega-farm was undertaken with the support of the Russian federal and regional governments as part of a national project for the development of the countrys agricultural sector. Wimm-Bill-Dann is an active participant in this program. This is the fourth such major project for the company in developing Russias livestock industry. Wimm-Bill-Dann is completing a mega-farm for 2,700 cattle in Krasnodar Region and is carrying out the reconstruction of two livestock farms in the Kuban. The total investment of the company in developing the agricultural sector over the past three years exceeds US$40 million.

Russias leading producer of health and wellness foods, Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods [NYSE: WBD], today announced a new corporate structure and management positions that will go into effect from March 1st, 2008. As part of the restructuring, the existing Dairy and Baby Food business units, along with the Holding company, will be combined into a single structure: Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods.

Wimm-Bill-Dann has grown significantly over the last two years and has successfully built leading positions in many categories, such as baby food, yogurts and desserts, premium cheese, beverages, traditional dairy and functional products.

At the same time, Wimm-Bill-Dann has been aggressively simplifying its legal structure. It has, as of today, halved its number of legal entities from 68 to 34. In addition, some functions such as procurement, key account management, legal and information technology, have already been centralized.

Over the past fifteen years Wimm-Bill-Dann has accumulated in-depth knowledge of all aspects of food manufacturing, marketing, and sales. The companys new organizational structure will facilitate the best use of its central functional expertise, at the same time preserving regional proximity to customers. In the evolving competitive environment, and in the face of ever increasing retail consolidation, Wimm-Bill-Dann will have a more focused approach and clear demarcation between headquarters and the regional management.

Hence, as of March 1st, 2008, the companys organizational structure will be re-aligned to further support accelerate growth. The main changes in Wimm-Bill-Danns organization are:

Dairy, Baby Food and the Holding company will be combined into a single WBD Foods structure;
WBD Beverages support functions will be either centralized under the new structure or aligned with WBD Foods;
WBD Foods will have a functional structure at the top level, with the creation of the two new roles of Vice President Operations and Vice President Sales; and
WBD International, a new entity, will develop and accelerate activities in Ukraine, Central Asia, the Caucasus region and exports to the rest of the world.
Commenting on the changes, Tony Maher, CEO of Wimm-Bill-Dann, said: I believe these steps will allow us to manage successfully our current and future growth as we work to achieve our ambitious strategic goals for the next five years and beyond. This restructuring will reduce the number of layers of management and will make the company leaner and more efficient. While we have exploited many synergies over the past number of years, we see additional opportunities that will make us an even stronger force in the marketplace and help reduce costs and accelerate revenue.

Effective March 1st, 2008, Oleg Kuzmin will assume the position of Vice President Operations and Grant Winterton will become Vice President Sales. Gary Sobel will take over the role of Vice President Marketing and Innovation.

Oleg Kuzmin, VP Operations

Previously served as the Head of the Dairy Business Unit, a position he has held since August 2004. Oleg joined Wimm-Bill-Dann in 1995 and has served in a number of management positions across the group. Olegs extensive expertise in manufacturing and his world class knowledge of the dairy industry will play a vital role in streamlining our operations at every level throughout the company.

Grant Winterton, VP Sales

Has served as WBD Group Head of Marketing and Innovation since November 2006. He has extensive experience in sales and marketing with multinational companies, including Wella Haircare, Campbell Soup Company (Arnotts Snacking) and Coca-Cola in Australia, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and China. Grants comprehensive knowledge of the standards of world class partnership with the modern retail trade, as well as his experience in independent retail trade distribution and activation, will allow us to build a single company-wide professional sales force which further improves customer service and retail execution.

Gary Sobel, VP Marketing and Innovation

He previously worked for Procter & Gamble for over 13 years in various senior positions in Canada, the US, the UK and Russia, and as an MD for Cadbury LLC.

The gross margin in the Dairy Segment decreased to 26.4% from 29.2% in the first quarter 2007, but despite such a sharp rise in raw milk prices decreased only slightly from 26.9% in the fourth quarter 2007.

Beverages

Sales in the Beverage Segment grew 25.8% to US$116.8 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to US$92.9 million in the first quarter of 2007 driven primarily by product mix and selling price increases. The average selling price increased 27.1% to US$1.02 per liter in the first quarter of 2008 from US$0.81 per liter in the first quarter of 2007. The gross margin in the Beverage Segment decreased to 38.0% from 39.9% year-on-year, due to rising raw materials cost pressure, which commenced in the latter part of 2007. Apple concentrate purchasing price almost doubled in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the same period last year. Despite such a sharp rise in raw material costs, gross margin in the first quarter 2008 remained in line with the fourth quarter 2007.

Baby Food

Sales in the Baby Food Segment grew 67.1% to US$59.7 million in the first quarter of 2008 from US$35.7 million in the first quarter of 2007. This increase was driven mainly by improved mix, volume growth and selling price increases. The average selling price rose 31.2% to US$2.42 per 1 kg in the first quarter of 2008 from US$1.84 per 1 kg in the first quarter of 2007. This increase was driven mainly by a healthier mix and the ruble price growth. The gross margin in the Baby Food Segment increased to 47.5% from 44.8% driven by constantly improving sales mix.

Key Cost Elements

In the first quarter of 2008, selling and distribution expenses as a percentage of sales remained almost flat at 15.0% comparing to 15.1% in the first quarter of 2007. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 5.8% in the first quarter of 2008 from 7.7% in the same period of 2007.

Operating profit increased 23.2% to US$63.4 million in the first quarter of 2008. EBITDA grew 29.0% to US$90.7 million.

Net financial expenses during the first quarter of 2008 decreased 41.2% to US$3.4 million compared to US$5.7 million in the same period of 2007. This was mainly a result of increased foreign currency gain. In the first quarter of 2008 foreign currency gain amounted to US$9.0 million compared to US$3.2 million for the same period of 2007.

Income tax expenses totalled US$17.2 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to US$13.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. The effective tax rate remained 28.7%.

Net Income

Net income increased 30.6% to US$41.9 million in the first quarter of 2008 from US$32.1 million in the first quarter of 2007.

EBITDA represents net income before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for interest income, currency remeasurement gains, bank charges and other financial expenses and minority interest. EBITDA margin is EBITDA expressed as a percentage of sales.

We present EBITDA because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operating performance. In particular, we believe EBITDA provides useful information to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties because it is used in the debt to EBITDA debt incurrence financial measurement in certain of our financing arrangements.

EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Moreover, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently or may use it for different purposes than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

EBITDA also should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of our liquidity. In particular, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business.

(13:10 28.08.08)

Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC [NYSE: WBD] today announced its financial results for the second quarter and half-year ended June 30, 2008.

Highlights of the first half of 2008:

Revenue growth in all segments

Gross profit increased 24.5% to US$470.4 million
Operating income rose 16.3% to US$126.0 million
Net income increased 19.4% to US$78.6 million

EPS increased to $1.79 from $1.50
I am pleased with the results we achieved in the second quarter of 2008 and first half of the year, said Tony Maher, Wimm-Bill-Danns Chief Executive Officer. Strong performance across each of our businesses drove overall sales growth of 25.6% for the second quarter and 30.0% for the first half of the year versus the comparable periods in 2007. Despite the uncertain macroeconomic environment and the dramatic worldwide increase in food prices, our business remains very solid and our position continues to improve.

Our dairy business delivered 23.8% sales growth in the second quarter versus the same period in 2007. Despite the slowdown in market growth we continued to improve our market share in all of our business units, pointed out Mr. Maher. Due to company-wide measures undertaken by us, our gross margin in Dairy improved sequentially to 30.1% in the second quarter from 26.4% in the first quarter of 2008. Our baby food business continued its impressive growth with sales increasing 63.4% in the second quarter versus the same period in 2007, outpacing market growth and strengthening our leading market share position. Gross margin in Baby Food in the second quarter of 2008 stood at 45.9%, up from 45.6% in the second quarter of 2007. Our beverage business achieved 19.3% growth in sales in the second quarter of 2008 versus the same period in 2007. Gross margin for the beverage business remained solid at 38.0% in the second quarter.

Group gross profit for the second quarter grew 23.0% over the same period last year driven by improved cost structure and enhanced efficiency. EBITDA for the second quarter increased 21.2% over the same period last year.

Dairy

Sales in the Dairy Segment increased 28.8% to US$1,105.4 million in the first six months of 2008 from US$858.4 million in the same period of 2007. The growth was organic, driven by pricing and offset somewhat by decline in volume. The average dollar selling price rose 37.0% to US$1.40 per kg in the first six months of 2008 from US$1.02 per kg in the same period of 2007 driven primarily by average ruble price growth. Our raw milk purchasing price grew 48.6% year-on-year in ruble terms (61.9% in US dollar terms) in the first six months of 2008. Despite such a sharp rise in raw milk prices the gross margin in the Dairy Segment decreased relatively slightly to 28.3% from 29.9% in the first six months of 2007. The gross margin in the Dairy segment improved to 30.1% the second quarter 2008 from 26.4% in the first quarter 2008.

The gross margin in the Beverages Segment decreased to 38.0% in the first six months of 2008 from 40.8% in the first six months of 2007, due to continued concentrate cost pressure. Apple concentrate purchasing price grew 92.2% in the first six months of 2008 compared to the same period last year. Despite such a sharp rise in raw material costs, the gross margin in Beverages remained solid at 38.0% in the second quarter of 2008, and in line with two previous quarters, due to improved product mix and efficiency.

Baby Food

Sales in the Baby Food Segment increased 65.1% to US$127.7 million in the first six months of 2008 from US$77.3 million in the same period last year. This was driven by a healthy balance of volume and pricing. The average selling price rose 31.4% to US$2.42 per kg in the first six months of 2008 from US$1.84 per kg in the first six months of 2007.
