MANDARIN ORIENTAL INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
HALF-YEAR RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30TH JUNE 2023
OVERVIEW
The Group performed strongly in the first six months of 2023, recording an
underlying profit of US$28 million, a significant improvement compared to the
underlying loss in the first half of 2022 and more than double 2019. The
Group's portfolio of managed hotels continues to grow, with several new
openings planned in 2023 and significant additions made in the period to the
pipeline.
MANAGEMENT BUSINESS PERFORMANCE
The Group's combined Revenue per Available Room ('RevPAR') was well ahead of
both 2022 and 2019. The Group continued to deliver strong rates in many
locations, with resorts performing especially well. Occupancy also
strengthened significantly across all regions compared to the first half of
2022.
Particular strength was seen in Europe and the Middle East where almost all of
the hotels achieved record rates and strong occupancies, with RevPAR well
above both 2022 and 2019 levels. In America, hotels also delivered higher
RevPAR than in prior years, driven by improved occupancy. In Asia, RevPAR
performance from the Chinese mainland hotels improved significantly from 2022
and 2019 levels, due to the relaxation of travel restrictions. Hong Kong
continued its recovery after the relaxation of travel restrictions in early
2023. Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong saw higher numbers of both international
and Chinese mainland visitors, leading to robust improvements in both rate and
occupancy from 2022 levels.
The combined total revenue of hotels under management in the first half of
2023 was US$882 million, representing a 30% increase compared to the same
period last year, and 38% higher than 2019.
NEW DEVELOPMENTS
The growth of the Management Business continues at pace, with several new
openings scheduled in the second half of 2023, comprising:
- four new hotels: a beachfront retreat in Costa Navarino, a second
London hotel in Mayfair, a resort in Muscat and the opening of a landmark
hotel in Zurich;
- a rebranding in Riyadh; and
- a standalone residences project on Fifth Avenue in New York.
Our hotel in Singapore remains on track to reopen in September 2023, following
a comprehensive renovation.
The Group's pipeline continues to grow, with four new hotel management
contracts and a standalone residences project in Madrid announced in the first
half of the year. The new hotel management contracts include a beach resort
in Mallorca, a new landmark hotel and residences in Athens, a hotel and
residences in Bankside - reinforcing the brand's strong position in London -
and a redevelopment of our hotel in Miami. These developments expand the
Group's pipeline to 27 hotels - 14 of which have residences - and two
standalone residences over the next five years.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Underlying profit for the first half of 2023 was US$28 million, substantially
improved compared to an underlying loss of US$21 million in the equivalent
period in 2022, driven by the recovery of key owned hotels in Asia. The result
also exceeded 2019 levels, due to the increasing scale and record level of
profitability of the Management Business, particularly in Europe and the
Middle East, although this was slightly offset by the more gradual recovery of
business in Hong Kong and the temporary closure of the Singapore hotel in
March 2023 for refurbishment.
The Group sold its Jakarta property during the period. The hotel will
continue to be managed as a Mandarin Oriental hotel. This transaction
generated a post-tax gain on disposal of US$43 million. The valuation of the
Causeway Bay site under development decreased between 31st December 2022 and
30th June 2023, resulting in a non-trading loss for the Group of US$141
million. Total losses attributable to shareholders were US$69 million in the
first half of 2023, compared to losses of US$18 million in the same period
last year.
Net debt fell to US$233 million at 30th June 2023, from US$376 million at the
end of 2022. The Group remains well funded, with headroom of US$840 million
in its available cash and committed facilities. Gearing as a percentage of
adjusted shareholders' funds was 5% at the end of June 2023, taking into
account the market value of the Group's properties.
An interim dividend of US¢1.50 per share has been declared.
PEOPLE
Laurent Kleitman will succeed James Riley as Group Chief Executive with effect
from 1st September 2023. Laurent joins the Group from Parfums Christian
Dior, the largest luxury fashion beauty business of LVMH. We want to thank
James for his seven years as Group Chief Executive. He has been instrumental
in continuing to expand Mandarin Oriental's development pipeline, elevating
the Mandarin Oriental brand globally and driving a wide range of
sustainability initiatives across the Group.
OUTLOOK
Mandarin Oriental performed well in the first half of 2023. There was
particularly strong operating and financial performance by the Management
Business, which is well set for further growth. The strength of the Group's
brand, together with its existing portfolio of properties and strong pipeline,
give the Board confidence in the future success of Mandarin Oriental.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION
The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS
34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and on a going concern basis. The condensed
financial statements have not been audited or reviewed by the Group's auditors
pursuant to the UK Auditing Practices Board guidance on the review of interim
financial information.
There are no changes to the accounting policies as described in the 2022
annual financial statements. A number of amendments were effective from 1st
January 2023. Those relevant to the Group's operations are set out below:
Amendments to IAS 12 - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising
from a Single Transaction
(effective from 1st January 2023)
The amendment requires deferred tax to be recognised on transactions that, on
initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible
temporary differences. They typically apply to transactions such as leases of
lessees and decommissioning obligations and require the recognition of
additional deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Amendments to IAS 12 - International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules
(effective for annual reporting period commencing on or after 1st January
2023)
The amendment provides a temporary mandatory exception from deferred tax
accounting in respect of Pillar Two income taxes and certain additional
disclosure requirements. The Group is in the process of assessing the
estimated impact of Pillar Two income taxes to its consolidated financial
statements and appropriate disclosures will be made in the financial
statements for the year ending 31st December 2023.
The Group has not early adopted any amendments that have been issued but not
yet effective.

1,263.8 million (2022: 1,263.7 million) shares in issue during the period.
Diluted loss per share is calculated using loss attributable to shareholders
of US$69.2 million (2022: US$18.3 million) and the weighted average number of
1,263.8 million (2022: 1,263.8 million) shares in issue after adjusting for
the number of shares which are deemed to be issued for no consideration under
the share-based long-term incentive plans based on the average share price
during the period.
The weighted average number of shares is arrived at as follows:

Fair value estimation
(i) Financial instruments that are measured at fair value
For financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the balance
sheet, the corresponding fair value measurements are disclosed by level of the
following fair value measurement hierarchy:
(a) Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly ('observable current
market transactions')
The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined using rates
quoted by the Group's bankers at the balance sheet date. The rates for
interest rate swaps and caps and forward foreign exchange contracts are
calculated by reference to market interest rates and foreign exchange rates.
The fair values of unlisted investments mainly include club and school
debentures, are determined using prices quoted by brokers at the balance sheet
date.
(b) Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable
market data ('unobservable inputs')
The fair values of other unlisted investments are determined using valuation
techniques by reference to observable current market transactions (including
price-to earnings and price-to book ratios of listed securities of entities
engaged in similar industries) or the market prices of the underlying
investments with certain degree of entity specific estimates or discounted
cash flow by projecting the cash flows from these investments.
There were no changes in valuation techniques during the six months ended 30th
June 2023 and the year ended 31st December 2022.
The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value at 30th
June 2023 and 31st December 2022, by the levels in the fair value measurement
hierarchy:

(ii) Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value
The fair values of current debtors, bank and cash balances, current creditors,
current borrowings and current lease liabilities are assumed to approximate
their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these assets and
liabilities.
The fair values of long-term borrowings are based on market prices or are
estimated using the expected future payments discounted at market interest
rates. The fair values of non-current lease liabilities are estimated using
the expected future payments discounted at market interest rates.
