INEOS Group Holdings
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

 

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

Ineos Group Holdings plc (Ineos Group Holdings or the "Company"), was incorporated on May 14, 2001 as a holding company to house the ownership interests in certain chemical businesses acquired and controlled by a common owner. Our results of operations reflect the purchase of Ineos Chlor from July 3, 2006; Ineos Vinyls from July 26, 2006 and the Dormagen EO/EG business from August 31, 2006.

 

The consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries of the Company. Intra-group transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation. The financial and operating results for any period less than a year are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited, with the exception of the balance sheet as at December 31, 2006 which has been extracted from audited financial statements.

 

 

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The financial information has been prepared using accounting policies in accordance with UK GAAP. The financial information has been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the Company's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2006.

 

 

3. SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

 

Class of business

 

The Company reports under the following four business segments: O&P North America, O&P Europe, Refining and Chemical Intermediates. The previously reported Corporate segment was a legacy from the Innovene acquisition. During the course of 2006 we restructured the operations of Innovene and removed the corporate activities that were previously included in this segment. The remaining activities have now been fully absorbed by the business segments.

 

The turnover and operating profit attributable to each different class of business as measured under UK GAAP is as follows:

Adjusted pro forma EBITDA before exceptionals

 

Adjusted pro forma EBITDA before exceptionals for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 was €623.2 million, after an adjustment of €15.0 million for lost margins at our Chocolate Bayou facility and €25.8 million in respect of the acquisition of the ChlorVinyls business which did not occur until the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted pro forma EBITDA before exceptionals for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 was €1,179.7 million, after an adjustment of €68.0 million for lost margins at our Chocolate Bayou facility and €35.5 million in respect of the acquisition of the ChlorVinyls business which did not occur until the third quarter of 2006. The Chocolate Bayou adjustment reflects the estimated impact of lost margins in the period from both lost volumes and higher costs as a result of the August 10, 2005 fire at the Chocolate Bayou facility. The acquisition adjustment reflects the results of the ChlorVinyls business as if it had been acquired on January 1, 2006.
