In Q4 2013/2014 :
Turnover from the tourism business totalled €409.1 million and
was virtually stable on a like-for-like basis relative to Q4
2012/2013.
The Group outperformed a touristic market in France down - 4%1
in number of visitors, with the occupancy rate up to more than 80%
in the summer period. Sales with foreign customers and the healthy
performances at Center Parcs in the domestic Dutch and German
markets made up for the decline in French clients.
Accommodation turnover stood at €278.1 million, virtually
stable on a like-for-like basis (-0.4%) and up 0.7% excluding
supply effects2. Growth in occupancy rates (+3.4%) helped offset
the decline in net average letting rates (-1.8%) in a market
suffering from strong competitive pressure and despite the increase
in the VAT rate from 7% to 10% in France.
- Pierre & Vacances Tourisme Europe
contributed €153.9 million, 1.9% less than during the previous
summer but up 1% excluding supply effects.On a same-structure
basis, growth in turnover at the mountain sites and city residences
made up for a slight decline at seaside destinations, which
suffered from a fall in the number of French clients and shorter
lengths of stay. Growth in last-minute reservations in August
partly made up for sluggish business in July. Sites on the
Mediterranean coast were affected, with a sharper decline in
business at certain villages, also weighing on turnover generated
by leisure activities and catering.
- Center Parcs Europe contributed €124.2
million, up 1.4% relative to Q4 2012/2013, or +0,5% excluding the
Bostalsee effect.Turnover growth concerned the villages in Germany
(+2.4% excluding Bostalsee) and The Netherlands (+2.5%), whereas
the French villages incurred a 2% decline, primarily due to lower
net average letting rates (impact of the hike in VAT in
France).
Over 2013/2014 :
Turnover from the tourism businesses totalled €1,141.1 million,
up 0.9% relative to the previous year, with the Group again proving
the resilience of its tourism business and the appeal of its
offer.
Accommodation turnover rose 1.2% (+1.6% adjusted for
supply effects), driven by growth in the number of nights sold
(+2.3%) with net average letting rates down 1.1%, attributable to
the hike in VAT in France since 1 January 2014. The share of
international clients increased sharply, representing 55% of the
Group's accommodation turnover in 2013/2014, vs. 53% in
2012/2013.
- Property development
turnover
In Q4 2013/2014, property development turnover rose 54.7%
to €112.5 million, driven especially by the contribution from
Center Parcs Vienne (€53.2 million), the Deauville programme (€14
million) and Villages Nature (€8 million).
In 2013/2014, turnover totalled € 274.4 million vs.
€169.7 million in 2012/13, representing growth of 61.7%.
Property reservations to date with individual investors
are continuing at a robust pace (around 100 lots a month) in a
difficult property backdrop. These represent turnover of €234
million, or €291 million including reservations with institutional
investors (block sales of cottages at the Center Parcs Vienne).
