Terry Leahy, Chief Executive, comments:
'Today's figures demonstrate what a great British success Tesco is at home and
abroad. The last year has been an exciting time for retail and a great year for
Tesco. Sales in our core UK market have grown by more than 14%. We have seen a
step change in non-food with an increase in market share. Our retail services
are helping us to grow profits strongly by giving our customers choice and
value. Internationally we have grown profits by an impressive 44%.'
* Underlying pre-tax profit excludes net loss on disposal of fixed assets (£9m),
integration costs (£45m) and goodwill amortisation (£54m).
** Pre tax profits post minority interest.
*** Sales and profit exclude USA and Korea start up losses
Underlying operating profit on the following pages refers to operating profit
excluding integration costs and goodwill amortisation.
FINANCIAL
Group sales including VAT increased by 18.7% to £33.6bn (2003 - £28.3bn) up
16.7% to £33.0bn on a 52 week basis.
Group underlying pre-tax profit increased by 21.9% to £1,708m, up 20.2% to
£1,684m on a 52 week basis. Pre-tax profit increased by 17.6% to £1,600m (2003 -
£1,361m).
We have made one accounting adjustment which brings us in line with the latest
guidance issued in November 2003 on revenue recognition given by the Accounting
Standards Board in relation to FRS 5. The total impact is a £395m reduction in
sales this year and £333m last year. This does not materially impact sales
growth. Profit and cash flow are not impacted at all.
UK sales on a 52 week basis grew by 14.2% to £26.4bn (2003 - £23.1bn) of which
6.7% came from existing stores and 7.5% from net new stores. Existing store
growth has been driven by strong volumes of 6.6%.
UK underlying operating profit on a 53 week basis was 17.7% higher at £1,526m
(2003 - £1,297m). The operating profit margin increased 0.1% to 6.2%.
Total international sales grew by 29% to £6.7bn and contributed £306m to
underlying operating profits, up 44% on last year. The operating profit margin
grew from 4.5% to 5.1%.
In The Rest of Europe sales rose by 27.5% to £3.8bn (2003 - £3.0bn) and
contributed an underlying operating profit of £184m, up 30.5% on last year.
In Asia sales were up 31.1% to £2.8bn and we made an underlying operating profit
of £122m up 71.8% on last year.
Our share of Total joint ventures' and associates' profit (excluding goodwill
amortisation) for the year was £99m compared to £72m last year. Tesco Personal
Finance profit was £160m and our share was £80m, up from £48m last year.
Tesco.com made a profit of £28m up from £12m and we achieved sales of £577m, up
29% on last year.
Net interest payable was £223m (2003 - £180m). Interest cover is strong at 8.2
times.
Tax has been charged at an effective rate of 31.1% (2003 - 30.5%). Prior to
accounting for the net loss on disposal of fixed assets, goodwill amortisation
and integration costs, our underlying tax rate was 29.5% (2003 - 29.6%).
Underlying diluted earnings per share increased by 16.7% to 16.31p (2003 -
13.98p). Diluted earnings per share increased by 11.3% to 14.93p (2003 -
13.42p).
The Board has proposed a final dividend of 4.77p (2003 - 4.33p). This, together
with the interim dividend of 2.07p (2003 - 1.87p), gives a total dividend of
6.84p (2003 - 6.20p). This represents an increase of 10.3%, significantly ahead
of inflation and in line with our policy of strong dividend growth whilst
increasing cover. Dividend cover increases to 2.38 times from 2.25 times last
year. The final dividend will be paid on 25 June 2004 to shareholders on the
Register of Members at the close of business on 30 April 2004. Shareholders will
continue to have the right to receive the dividend in the form of fully paid
ordinary shares instead of cash. The first day of dealing in the new shares will
be on 25 June 2004.
Group capital expenditure for the year was £2.3bn (2003 - £2.1bn). We anticipate
group capital expenditure to be around £2.4bn next year. UK capital expenditure
was £1.5bn, including £735m on new stores and £272m on extensions and refits.
Total international capital expenditure was £765m including £322m in Asia and
£443m in Europe.
Although we are investing heavily for growth a strong balance sheet and credit
rating are important to us. Operating cash flows are outstripping capital
expenditure. This year, we generated £2.9bn of operational cashflow and spent
£2.3bn on capital expenditure, leaving £0.6bn to help cover non-operating cash
outflows such as tax, dividends and interest costs.
Working capital improvements contributed £0.5bn to cashflow this year and whilst
£50m is due to the 53rd week, the rest is due to increased management focus.
In January we strengthened our balance sheet further by placing 315 million
shares, raising £773m which was used to pay down debt. Subsequently our credit
rating was confirmed at A+, by S&P.
Gearing has now reduced to 51%, from 73% last year, and return on capital
employed has increased to 10.5% from 10.2%.
Year end debt has reduced to £4.1bn, from £4.7bn last year end.
Post year end we completed a property joint venture deal which provided £650m of
competitive funding.
We have an award winning defined benefit pension scheme for staff. It is a young
scheme with over 120,000 members and only 10,000 pensioners. Our FRS 17 post tax
pension deficit was £472m at the year end reducing from £540m last year.
STRATEGY
All four parts of the strategy have contributed to our excellent results:-
• Core UK;
• Non food;
• Retailing Services; and
• International.
CORE UK BUSINESS
We have seen UK sales grow by 14.2%, including 6.6% like for like volume,
contributing to 29% volume growth in the last five years. It has been a good
year and one of our strongest in recent times.
We have been investing in further improving our price position. £70m in January
and a further £70m yesterday are the two most recent price campaigns maintaining
our position as the UK's best value retailer.
During the year we opened 21 Extra stores, of which eight were new and 13 were
extensions giving us 83 in total.
We have further evidence that customers love our Express stores and we have
grown our share of the convenience market to 5.9%. We now have 277 Express
stores and the customer offer is the best in the convenience sector achieving
high sales per sq. ft. and increasing returns.
Our Step Change programme ensures efficiency savings are re-invested for
customers. We delivered savings of over £200m this year.
NON-FOOD
We are growing rapidly and are achieving our goal of being as strong as we are
in food.
Some highlights include:-
• being number one retailer in the baby goods market selling more than
both Boots and Mothercare combined;
• achieving 60% sales growth in DVD's; and
• Cherokee and Florence & Fred contribute to having the fastest growing
clothing offer in the UK.
RETAILING SERVICES
Retailing Services have seen further exciting developments in the year.
Tesco Personal Finance has had an exceptional year delivering a profit of £160m
in the year. (Tesco share is £80m).
Tesco.com achieved sales of £577m and delivers 120,000 customer orders per week.
This is a fast growing and profitable business with sales up 67% in the last
three years and generating £28m profit this year up from £12m last year.
Building a new Telecoms business is the latest stage of our strategy in
developing popular retail services. We have repeated our approach to banking,
delivering convenience and value to customers seeking lower phone bills from a
brand they can trust.
INTERNATIONAL
We are trading very well against our competitors. Sales are up by 29%, with very
strong volume growth. Profits have grown strongly by 44%, and operating margins
have increased from 4.5% last year to 5.1%.
This year we opened 37 hypermarkets giving us an additional 3m sq. ft. of new
sales space.
During the year we purchased KIPA, a small hypermarket business in Turkey and C
Two-Network, a convenience operator in Japan.
In Europe sales are up 27.5% and profits up 30.5%.
In Hungary we have seen strong like for like growth in a relatively buoyant
market. We opened seven hypermarkets in the year giving us 33 in total and are
the clear market leader.
In Poland market conditions are tougher and consumer spending is tight. We have
successfully completed the HIT integration and opened four further hypermarkets
this year giving us 38 in total and market leadership.
In Slovakia we are also market leader. This year we opened six new stores giving
us 23 in total. We opened our first two 30,000 sq. ft. compact hypermarkets and
our third hypermarket in the fast growing city of Bratislava.
In the Czech Republic market conditions are challenging. We opened five stores
this year giving us 22 in total.
In the Republic of Ireland we have seen strong sales and profit growth. Our
development programme has really moved on with eight new store openings. We have
a strong forward development programme including our first Extra store at Clare
Hall in Dublin.
In Asia sales are up 31% to £2.8bn and profits are up 72% to £122m.
In Thailand we have seen strong sales and increased market share. We opened five
hypermarkets, four compact hypermarkets and three Express stores. Margins have
improved and we are now self funding.
In Korea we are still seeing difficult economic conditions with the tightening
of consumer credit availability. We are pushing ahead and have opened seven
stores this year taking the total to 28. Our Korean family card is popular and
now used by 77% of shoppers and we are also busy developing banking products.
Sales, profits and returns have all increased this year.
In Taiwan we have four hypermarkets and seen strong like for like growth of 22%.
In Malaysia we now have five hypermarkets and a further two stores opening this
year.
Next year we plan to open a further 51 hypermarkets and 51 other stores in our
international markets.
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
We are committed to the communities in which we operate. This year our Corporate
Social Responsibility achievements have included:-
• Our award winning Race for Life sponsorship for Cancer UK, with 300,000
women taking part, raising £17.5m and helping with a fight for a healthier
lifestyle;
• Through our Computers for Schools programme we have given away over £84m
of computer equipment in the last 12 years; and
• Our Regeneration Partnerships continue to be a success. This year we
have opened three new sites at Shettlestone, Warrington and Batley creating
hundreds of jobs and training for the long term unemployed.
CONCLUSION
Our staff share in our success. This year staff have benefited from a total of
£148m from Save As You Earn and profit share. Our Profit Share scheme is open to
all staff with one year's service. Over 100,000 of our staff are now
shareholders.
All four parts of the strategy have contributed to our outstanding results this
year. We have an excellent plan for next year and believe we can continue to
deliver the best shopping experience for customers.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
Note 1 Accounting policies
These financial accounts have been prepared using the accounting policies set
out in the Annual Report and Financial Statements 2003, except for turnover
recognition.
The Group has revised its accounting policy for turnover in line with FRS 5
Application Note G 'Revenue Recognition' (issued November 2003). The principal
adjustments are to report turnover net of vouchers and on a commission-only
basis for mobile phone airtime sales. The impact of the change in policy is to
restate 2003 turnover and cost of sales by £333m. There is no impact on
reported profit or cash flow.
As in the prior year the group has continued to account for pensions and other
post retirement benefits in accordance with SSAP 24, but has complied with the
transitional disclosure requirements of FRS 17.
