❖ <strong>2012</strong> IN RETROSPECT FOR TIVOLI ❖❖<strong>2012</strong> IN RETROSPECT FOR<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s stages buzzed with activity indoors as well asoutdoors, and the business area Games went onlinewith the opening of tivolicasino.dk. In other words, ithas been a “year of culture and entertainment.”Already in February, <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s first own production(in cooperation with The One and Only Company)Grease premiered, and after that, music, ballet andtheatre productions followed in rapid succession at theConcert Hall and the Glass Hall Theatre. The combinationof guest performances, new own productionsand shows produced by others lead to considerablybetter capacity utilisation of the halls than last year.A total of 332,000 people enjoyed a production at<strong>Tivoli</strong> in <strong>2012</strong>.Concerts and shows at <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s stages represent animportant part of the <strong>Tivoli</strong> concept. Also in this area,the activity level was raised considerably with theintroduction of the Music Week giving each day of theweek its own entertainment profile.<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s visitor profile in <strong>2012</strong> reflects our culturalfocus with a steep increase in the target group referredto as “cultural consumers” who primarily visit <strong>Tivoli</strong>to enjoy a show: The growth in cultural visitors isoffset by a decrease in visits by the target group“teens” who are defined in <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s surveys as youthsof the same age visiting <strong>Tivoli</strong> together to go on therides (in other words, there may be 13-19-year olds inthe other target groups, eg in connection with a familytrip). As it is part of the <strong>Tivoli</strong> concept to “cater foreveryone”, this also illustrates why some years are“years of dining” and others “years of culture orentertainment”: in order for <strong>Tivoli</strong> to remain relevantfor all target groups.The number of foreign tourists among <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s visitorsis slowly increasing again. Since the onset of theglobal economic crisis, <strong>Tivoli</strong> has participated activelyin efforts to reinforce tourism in Copenhagen andDenmark in cooperation with tourist organisationsand other major stakeholders. A fruitful dialogueis going on, and various marketing initiatives havebeen launched, whereas the giant leaps, such as fullremoval of VAT on hotel nights and restaurant visits,are slow to come. These measures are crucial to giveDanish tourism the same framework conditions as therest of Europe.VISITOR Segmenter PROFILE Sommer SUMMER <strong>2012</strong>2010 2011<strong>2012</strong>30%25%20%15%10%5%0%Families with children Teens Cultural consumers Bon vivants Friends Business Others13


❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖THE SUMMER SEASONThe Danish Meteorological Institute summed up the weather in <strong>2012</strong> inthe following words: “A slightly colder year with excess precipitation anda small deficit of sun compared to the period 2001-2010. Second sunniestwinter 2011-<strong>2012</strong> and coldest summer since 2000.”One of the advantages of a cool spring is that the gardens present a fine appearance.The flowers last longer, and visitors to <strong>Tivoli</strong> also get a chance to see theearly plants which wilt down before the beginning of the season in years with awarm spring. But other than that, cold summer weather is not the best news for<strong>Tivoli</strong>. It is in the warmth of the sun that <strong>Tivoli</strong> really unfolds to its visitors. Thatis when they will sprawl on the lawn in front of the Open Air Stage, enjoy foodas grandma made it on the terrace of Brdr. Price, take an extra spin on the StarFlyer and summon their friends to go to a Friday Rock event.WE MIX BUSINESS WITH PLEASUREOur Business Club is growing, and several new sponsors have joined in <strong>2012</strong>. At thesame time, our cooperation with the professional travel industry is strengthening,and still more people meet and celebrate at <strong>Tivoli</strong>.For most people <strong>Tivoli</strong> is synonymous with entertainment and amusement as well as qualityand tradition. This is a good combination for many professional purposes, and <strong>Tivoli</strong>’sSales Department is directing targeted efforts at creating relations between businesses and<strong>Tivoli</strong>. The professional travel industry has for some years been focusing on cruise tourism;this area has been reinforced in <strong>2012</strong> through developing the skills of tourist guides as wellas special <strong>Tivoli</strong> packages with focus on the amenity values of the Gardens.The <strong>Tivoli</strong> Business Club is back at full strength following some years’ setback due tothe general crisis. In <strong>2012</strong> the club had 162 member companies which meet for lectures,networking and <strong>Tivoli</strong> experiences. Our sponsor portfolio has grown with the addition of awine partner, a lighting partner, a car partner and a sponsor of Christmas at <strong>Tivoli</strong> to thealready established working relationships with, among others, <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s climate partner andthe main sponsor of the Friday Rock events. An overall list of sponsors is provided on thelast page of the <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong>.A POPULAR NAMEMany products and services would like toleverage on <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s good name, but <strong>Tivoli</strong> prefersto decide for itself who should have that privilege.<strong>Tivoli</strong> has reinforced its efforts to protect the <strong>Tivoli</strong>brand. A number of infringement cases have beennoted in recent years in which firms have used <strong>Tivoli</strong>’sname or theme world for products and serviceswithout having entered into an agreement with <strong>Tivoli</strong>.In <strong>2012</strong> licence agreements were made within food,books, arts and crafts as well as toys. A Portuguesehotel chain had to refrain from registering its name(<strong>Tivoli</strong> Hotels & Resorts) as a trademark based on<strong>Tivoli</strong> Denmark’s rights.Most of the cases arose unintentionally and are beingsettled amicably, but it does happen that we have totake legal action. In any circumstances, it is absolutelyessential to focus on the area, both to protect ourname and to be able to use it commercially as part ofour business.Therefore, <strong>Tivoli</strong> has now updated and developed itsIPR (Intellectual Property Rights) strategy adding,among other things, guidelines for use by the media,business partners, suppliers and others of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’sname, logo and theme world.14


❖ <strong>2012</strong> IN RETROSPECT FOR TIVOLI ❖<strong>Tivoli</strong> is a popular nameSummertime on the LawnMORE MUSIC IN THEGARDENSThe Music Week was introduced at the beginningof the summer season as a new way of thinkingentertainment in the Gardens.In order for <strong>Tivoli</strong> to retain a strong, musical profile,it was necessary to branch out with more music genresto complement the swing and light classical repertoireoffered by the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Big Band and the PromenadeOrchestra. The Music Week embraced both worldmusic (Mundo Monday), electronic music, (KarmaWednesday), experimental jazz (The Thursday Party)and the above-mentioned genres (Saturday Swingand The Tuesday Hour) besides Friday Rock and theenjoyable Family Sunday with all the <strong>Tivoli</strong> icons(Petzi, Pierrot, etc).This gave each day of the week a clear musical identity,and, at the same time, the Music Week was spreadout over the entire season. So, our visitors couldchoose to dance to the tunes of the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Big Bandeach Saturday from April to September and to playsinging games with Petzi and Ole Kibsgaard’s bandevery Sunday in the 24 weeks of the summer season.Karma Wednesday suffered from a great deal of badweather, and we only saw the concept - a cosy loungeatmosphere around the DJ on the lawn in front of theOpen Air Stage - fully unfold on few Wednesdays. Onthe other hand, Mundo Mondays offered many musicaltitbits with genres as different as Klezmer, Balkanpunk and reggae. The Thursday Party brimmed withdelight in playing when four drummers took turn ininviting musical friends onto the stage.Saturday Swing with the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Big Bandand dancing on the LawnSeveral music genres in <strong>2012</strong>15

The average rainfall per concert was 3.7 millimetrescompared to 2.4 millimetres in 2011, whichmakes <strong>2012</strong> the rainiest year – in terms of concerts– for four years.The concerts of the season fully illustrated the foodchain mechanisms of the musical industry. The FridayRock Festival allowed a number of artists whohave not yet had their break-through to show theirtalent in front of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s Friday Rock audience. Moreestablished names performed in double concerts, andthe night with I Got You on Tape and Who Made Whowas an artistically unique experience. The Wafandeand Kaka double concert introduced the new dancehallgenre at <strong>Tivoli</strong>. At the other end of the spectre, asa very established name, Kim Larsen came back to<strong>Tivoli</strong> after many years’ absence, and it was a pleasureto see how children, youths and grow-ups alikeenjoyed iconic Larsen’s music.

❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖A REAL TIVOLI BALLETThe Nutcracker was the last major ownproduction of the year and premiered at theConcert Hall on 22 November. The idea was tocreate a real <strong>Tivoli</strong> ballet with a family appeal.<strong>Tivoli</strong> has moved the plot of The Nutcracker toCopenhagen. The guests on Christmas Eve includeHans Christian Andersen, August Bournonville andBernhard Olsen, the director of <strong>Tivoli</strong>. Everybody isbringing gifts for Clara who, in her dreams at night,finds herself at <strong>Tivoli</strong> where the second act of theballet plays out. The ensemble consisted of 35 dancersfrom all over the world and not least 49 children whotook turns in performing. Peter Bo Bendixen’schoreography included a few references to formerchoreographers’ versions, but otherwise offered anabundance of elements, from the romantic pas dedeux between Clara and the Solider, over the swirlingsnowflakes to a flower waltz through the four seasonsof the year. Even a Spanish dance was fitted in,danced and choreographed by Selene Muños.HM Queen Margrethe’s set designs switched fromdetailed Biedermeierstube to the snow-covered towersof Copenhagen, on to a starry sky, <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s entrancegate and finally the Gardens with green leaves andcoloured lampions, just like in the old days. The morethan 100 costumes made at the Royal Opera HouseCovent Garden in London sparkled in all colours.Neat dresses with bustles, floor-sweeping floraldresses, handsome soldiers’ uniforms, cute mice andpiquant snowflakes followed each other at high speedaccompanied by Tjaikovskij’s atmospheric music andto the great delight of the audience. About 33,000visitors saw The Nutcracker, which will be back onstage in 2014.Her Majesty Queen Margrethe attended the premierein her capacity of set designer of the ballet. On stage,the Queen and the ensemble were applauded enthusiasticallyby the audience. HRH the Prince Consort,HRH Princess Benedikte and HM Queen Anne-Mariewere also among the first-nighters.Clara and the Soldier in an intimate pas de deux watchedby Pierrot and the children as lanterns18

Other skilful amateurs participatedin <strong>Tivoli</strong> Open Stage events during which <strong>Tivoli</strong>makes the Lawn Stage available for ½ hour’s performanceon certain afternoons.The gratuitous pleasures are key to <strong>Tivoli</strong> as musicand entertainment make up an essential part of the<strong>Tivoli</strong> experience. Georg Carstensen himself foundedthe <strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys Guard as a 30-man guard of honour.No doubt, he would rejoice in the spectacular paradeand the high musical level achieved by the 100 boysof the Guard today. The <strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys Guard is developingcontinuously and, in addition to the traditionalparades and concerts, now also contributes the eightmanensemble referred to as the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Pumpkin Bandor the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Pixie Band depending on the season andrepertoire.Georg Carstensen 200 years oldHundreds of gospel singers performingat the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Gospel Festival21

❖ <strong>2012</strong> IN RETROSPECT FOR TIVOLI ❖The <strong>Tivoli</strong> Ballet School saw the light of dayRISING STARSOffering both a music school and a ballet school,<strong>Tivoli</strong> must be commended for doing its sharein strengthening the growth layer in Denmarkwithin artistic education.The first tiny steps of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s new ballet school weretaken in the school summer holidays with a summercamp for 160 dance-loving girls and boys. Sincethen, the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Ballet School has grown, now havingweekly lessons, 80 ballet pupils and a growing waitinglist. The ballet school now has its own director – NielsBalle of the Royal Danish Ballet. With the competentteachers employed, the school will be able to developand expand in the long term.The <strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys Guard is long established as oneof Denmark’s top places of musical education forboys. Martin Åkerwall has been recruited as artisticdirector of the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys Guard Band, furtherstrengthening the Band’s profile. An internal andtotally unscientific survey shows that 60-70 of theapproximately 300 boys who have retired from the<strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys Guard Band are today pursuing a careerin the Danish music industry.102BOYS IN THE TIVOLIBOYS GUARDA music education in the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Boys GuardBand can lead to many things23

The menu is touched bythe French bistro cuisine, whereas the décor is of theelegant, yet relaxed, style which characterises all ofNimb. The front part of the large, new restaurant isfitted out as a lounge where you are invited to enjoy acup of coffee or a drink any time of day.In Nimb’s small gourmet restaurant, Nimb Louiseopened under the management of Allan Poulsen whocame with a background from the inn Henne KirkebyKro and a title as Chef of the Year (2008). Therestaurant focused on the Nordic cuisine with a strongpersonal touch and a great sense of adventure. In spiteof favourable reviews across the board, the restaurantdid not manage to attract a sufficient customer baseto be able to operate, and it closed at the turn of theyear.Instead the premises will be added to the Nimb Hotelwhich needs to expand its capacity. A total of threenew suites will be made which can be combined toform Copenhagen’s most impressive luxury suiteopening out on <strong>Tivoli</strong>.The brothers Adam and James Price opened their restaurantBrdr. Price i <strong>Tivoli</strong> in the restaurant premisesof the Glass Hall Theatre, which previously housedBelle Terrasse and later The Paul. The Price familyhas close links with <strong>Tivoli</strong> through the PantomimeTheatre. The English Price family of artists helpedestablish pantomime in Denmark around the year1800 and since supplied <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s Theatre with severalmime artists. In recent history, James Price has composedmusic for a number of ballets based on HansChristian Andersen’s fairytales with choreography byDinna Bjørn and set designs by HM Queen Margrethe.Adam Price had been a food critic for a number ofyears when he ventured into a cooking show on TVwith his older brother James. Following the successof the TV show Dining with Price, the brothersestablished a restaurant in the centre of Copenhagenand then in <strong>Tivoli</strong>. The ownership is shared with thecompany behind Dragsholm Castle.The Price brothers’ restaurant at <strong>Tivoli</strong> serves Danishfood as grandma made it; filled patty shells, chickenpot roast with cucumber salad and cream horns withjam, traditional Danish open sandwiches and <strong>Tivoli</strong>cakes.

Easy food offers fruit juices,burgers with a high content of fibres and organic hot dogs. The newestproposition is organic fish ‘n’ chips served freshly made and smokinghot in a practical box.

❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖HALLOWEEN GETS SCARYThe newest <strong>Tivoli</strong> season saw a record number ofvisitors and turned up the scary volume.Two novelties characterised the <strong>2012</strong> autumn season.Firstly, the season was extended with an extra week tospan two weeks of October. The great success experiencedby Halloween at <strong>Tivoli</strong> since the beginning of2006 led to an expectation that Danes who travel inthe traditional school holiday week in October wouldlike to experience <strong>Tivoli</strong> the following week. Moreover,the Swedish autumn holiday started on Friday of thatweek, which also spoke in favour of keeping <strong>Tivoli</strong>open.The other novelty was a development of the Halloweenconcept targeting teens and young adults, a scaryHalloween. The autumn season originally presentedby <strong>Tivoli</strong> targeted families with small childrenunder the motto “unscary scares” with charmingwitches and friendly scarecrows. To catch slightlyolder children, Halloween must be scarier, and<strong>Tivoli</strong> therefore opened <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s Scary Zone in theSkærsilden fun house and the Alley every day at 6 pmwhen the youngest visitors had probably gone home towatch children’s shows. The Skærsilden fun house wasturned into a haunted house with real actors and lotsof scary effects. Visitors went through the house ingroups of six to achieve the optimal scare. The smallcapacity turned out to be a challenge. Hundreds ofcourageous visitors were queuing, sometimes for hourson end. Luckily most of them found the scare worthwaiting for, but a capacity increase must be pursued.In the Alley our visitors were met by actors disguisedas visitors and employees, bringing small surprisessuch as a balloon that suddenly burst.The two novelties contributed towards achievingthe record number of 418,000 visitors for Halloweenat <strong>Tivoli</strong>.Unscary scares remained for the very youngestchildren at Halloween SquareAfter 6 pm Halloween at<strong>Tivoli</strong> got scaryThe Skærsilden fun house was turned into a haunted house26

We are very pleased to note that<strong>Tivoli</strong> made it again on to the Top 5 of the Best LargeWorkplaces in Denmark, this time as No 4.A good dialogue in the Works Committee and generallywithin the organisation enhances job satisfaction,and it is no secret that <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s employees are indeedvery proud to work here.In <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Tivoli</strong> rooted out the concepts of “red” and“green” service attendants which distinguishedbetween those looking after a ride (green) and thoseinspecting at the entrances and in the Gardens (red).Following relevant training, our service attendantsare now able to perform all types of inspection tasksresulting in far greater flexibility in terms of dutyplanning and avoidance of bottlenecks. Ultimately,this gives our visitors a better experience, which iswhat <strong>Tivoli</strong> is all about. <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s service attendantshave welcomed the new challenges; a new health& safety organisation and new duty schedules for<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s workmen have also been established.<strong>Tivoli</strong> has entered into a cooperation agreement withSentosa Islands, a large resort with a theme park, amarina, golf courses, etc situated on an island off thecoast of Singapore. Employees from Sentosa Islandhave visited <strong>Tivoli</strong>, for short or long periods, and<strong>Tivoli</strong> employees have paid study visits to SentosaIsland.

❖ FUTURE PLANS FOR TIVOLI ❖❖FUTURE PLANS FOR TIVOLI<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s strategic plans usually cover a 3-year periodbased on the consideration that, beyond three years,so many assumptions will have changed that the planswould have to be adjusted significantly anyhow.The global crisis experienced in recent years has notmade planning for the future any easier. It looksas if Danish economy will remain hibernating forsome years to come. Denmark is still one of the mostexpensive countries for tourists. At the same time,changes are in store for the experience industry inCopenhagen. In H1 <strong>2012</strong> Den Blå Planet, NationalAquarium Denmark, in Amager will open. The newattraction is expected to boost Copenhagen as adestination to an extent that will benefit the entireexperience industry.The same applies to the re-opening of the d’Angleterre,which will be a key competitor to the NimbHotel while providing Copenhagen with more attractivehigh-end overnight accommodation options.<strong>Tivoli</strong> must therefore pursue two paths in the yearsto come. We must strengthen our core business bydeveloping <strong>Tivoli</strong> as we are doing with the MerryCorner, which will be extended by 600 square metresin 2013 and added a new theme area inspired by theworks and age of Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe.Another project has roots in <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s own past. Whenthe Roller Coaster completes its 100th year in 2014, itwill appear as when new, with snow-clad peaks. Thepeaks were removed in the 1920’s at the request of thecity authorities but will return in connection with theanniversary.The other path that will be pursued is to reinforcethe business with all-year activities in branches ofthe experience industry which have so far representedonly a minor part of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s business. <strong>Tivoli</strong>casino.dk is an example of this. The <strong>Tivoli</strong> Edge is anotherproject whose realisation is still being pursued.In the very near future we know for certain that theconstruction work around <strong>Tivoli</strong> will continue. Therenovation of the headquarters of the Confederationof Danish Industries will be completed, and it will berevealed to which extent the <strong>Tivoli</strong> experience will beaffected by the new glass building. At Axel Squareconstruction on the Scala site has begun. In a consultationresponse <strong>Tivoli</strong> has expressed concern about theimpact of the new building on the impression of theMain Entrance viewed from both Axel Square and thestreet Vesterbrogade, which is being re-arranged too.<strong>Tivoli</strong> expands with three new rides33


❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖❖CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s CSR policy operates with three stakeholders;visitors, employees and our surroundings. Initiativesdirected at our surroundings comprise environmentalinitiatives as well as safeguarding of our cultural heritageand the donations of tickets and Season Passesmade by <strong>Tivoli</strong>, in particular to deprived children.Tickets and Season Passes can be counted andmeasured, but <strong>Tivoli</strong> contributes in other ways too, egby assisting hundreds of school children and studentsin writing essays about <strong>Tivoli</strong>. Furthermore, in <strong>2012</strong>we entered into a working relationship with theschool Vesterbro Ny Skole as part of the CopenhagenMunicipality “Plus Programme” which matchesschools and enterprises to provide the oldest lower secondaryschool children with a realistic and vocationalangle on their education.Neighbourliness is one of the items of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s CSRpolicy, and good neighbourliness was the subject ofthe first dialogue meeting with residents of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’sneighbouring residential properties. It is obviousthat when you live right next to Denmark’s largestamusement park, you will be able to feel, see and hearit. Topics discussed at the dialogue meeting includedthe sound level at Friday Rock events, fireworks, wildrides and inadequate parking. <strong>Tivoli</strong> encouraged itsneighbours to establish a tenants’ forum and alwaysto contact <strong>Tivoli</strong> whenever specific issues are imminent.It was also agreed that a dialogue meeting is tobe held annually.One of the successes in the environmental area in<strong>2012</strong> was the replacement of almost 11,000 incandescentbulbs by LED low-energy bulbs, and the switchover by the “tram” on Line 8 from a diesel-powered toan electrically powered engine.<strong>Tivoli</strong> finds it important to contribute to the labourmarket. Therefore, we continuously train trade apprenticesand office trainees, and we have establishedseveral “acute jobs” and jobs under section 56 of theDanish Sickness Benefits Act.During the year, <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s name and reputation weresubject to public debate several times. People haveA total of 85,000 bulbs must be replaced by low-energy bulbsThousands of school children comeinto contact with <strong>Tivoli</strong> every year34


❖ Corporate Social Responsibility ❖high expectations of <strong>Tivoli</strong> when it comes to conduct,and it is considered a scoop when a person, an organisationor a group of people indicate that <strong>Tivoli</strong> is notliving up to these expectations.Our sponsor partnership with Kopenhagen Furprompted many comments and protests from animalwelfare advocates who used Facebook in particularto voice their views. The organisation Anima wasvery active in parts of the press and also organised ademonstration against the partnership. Apart frommaking <strong>Tivoli</strong> introduce stricter rules for its Facebooksite to avoid threats and harassment, this debate doesnot make <strong>Tivoli</strong> change its stance for the time being.The partnership with Kopenhagen Fur enables <strong>Tivoli</strong>to develop Christmas at <strong>Tivoli</strong>. At the same time,the two brands may reap mutual benefits in terms ofinternational marketing.Another debate which left its mark on the media fora little while originated in a complaint from a motherwho felt unfairly treated at the <strong>Tivoli</strong> Bodega whenshe wanted to breastfeed her baby. The issue spreadvery fast through the social media so before <strong>Tivoli</strong> hadeven received and read the mother’s official complaint,which was sent at night by e-mail, reactions camefrom a number of other people speaking for or againstbreastfeeding in public. Several politicians alsocommented on the issue. In addition to expressing itsregret at the poor service experienced by the mother,<strong>Tivoli</strong> also, induced by this incident, emphasised thatnaturally <strong>Tivoli</strong> is for everyone, including breastfeedingmothers. As several of <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s restaurantsare operated by tenants who are allowed to a greatextent to make their own rules for guest behaviour, amapping of established practice has been necessary.It is our objective that all visitors to <strong>Tivoli</strong> should feelwelcome and that nobody should feel embarrassedor harassed. The best solution is mutual respectbetween all parties, but improved information on theguidelines in the individual establishments may alsobe required.<strong>Tivoli</strong> publishes its statutory statement of corporatesocial responsibility for <strong>2012</strong> in accordance withsection 99a of the Danish Financial Statements Act onthe Company’s website, including additional informationon policies, developments in <strong>2012</strong> and expectedactivities in 2013.The statement of corporate social responsibility forthe four areas is accessible on http://www.tivoli.dk/~/media/Files/Pdf/Aarsrapporter/csr<strong>2012</strong>uk.pdf11,000INCANDESCENT BULBSWERE REPLACED BYLED LOW-ENERGY BULBSIN <strong>2012</strong>Line 8 is now running on electricity35

Gainsand losses arising due to differences between the transactiondate rates and the rates at the dates of paymentare recognised in financial income and expenses in theincome statement.Receivables, payables and other monetary items in foreigncurrencies are translated at the exchange rates at thebalance sheet date. Any differences between the exchangerates at the balance sheet date and the rates at the date ofcontracting the receivable or payable or the rates in thelatest <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> are recognised in financial incomeand expenses in the income statement.Derivative financial instrumentsDerivative financial instruments are initially recognisedin the balance sheet at cost and are subsequently remeasuredat their market value.The market value of derivative financial instruments isrecognised in other receivables or other payables. Positiveand negative values are offset only where the Companyhas a right to and intention of settling several financialinstruments on a net basis. Market values of derivative financialinstruments are calculated on the basis of currentmarket data and recognised valuation methods.Changes in the market value of derivative financialinstruments that are designated and qualify as marketvalue hedges of a recognised asset or a recognised liabilityare recognised in the income statement as are anychanges in the value of the hedged asset or the hedgedliability related to the hedged risk.Changes in the part of the market value of derivativefinancial instruments that is designated and qualifiesas a hedge of future cash flows and which effectivelyhedges changes in the value of the hedged transactionare recognised in equity. When the hedged transaction isrealised, any gain or loss on such hedging transactions istransferred from equity and recognised in the same itemas the hedged transaction.Changes to the market value of derivative financialinstruments which do not qualify for hedge accountingare recognised in financial income and expenses in theincome statement as they occur.LeasesThe Company has not entered into any finance leases.Payments made under operating leases are recognisedin the income statement on a straight-line basis over thelease term.INCOME STATEMENTRevenueRevenue comprises net revenue as well as other operatingincome, see definitions below.Net revenueNet revenue comprises operating income by way ofearnings from entrance fees to the Gardens, includingearnings from the sale of Season Passes, earnings fromrides, rental income from buildings, premises, etc as wellas income from the sale of services.Income is recognised in the income statement providedthat delivery and transfer of risk have been made beforeyear end and provided that the income can be measuredreliably and is expected to be received.Where a service is delivered over several financial periods,such as earnings from the sale of Season Passes, it isaccounted for on an accruals basis.Net revenue is measured at fair value exclusive of VATand duties charged on behalf of third parties. All types ofdiscounts granted are recognised in net revenue.Revenue from cash games is presented net of prizepayments and gaming taxes.Other operating incomeOther operating income comprises items of a secondarynature to the activities of the enterprises, includingprojecting fees earned, sponsorships received and gainson the sale of intangible assets and property, plant andequipment.Other external expensesOther external expenses comprise expenses for leasingof premises, office expenses, external cash handling, IT,legal assistance and consulting services.Financial income and expensesFinancial income and expenses comprise interest, capitalgains and losses on securities, payables and transactionsin foreign currencies, amortisation of financial assets andliabilities as well as extra payments and repayment underthe on-account taxation scheme, etc.Tax on profit for the year<strong>Tivoli</strong> A/S is included in the joint taxation under Chr.Augustinus Fabrikker Aktieselskab.

❖ notes ❖attributable to equity transactions is recognised directlyin equity.BALANCE SHEETIntangible assetsIntangible rights acquired upon business combinationsare measured at cost less accumulated amortisation andimpairment losses. Intangible rights are amortised on astraight-line basis over their expected useful life (up to 10years). Development projects are measured at cost.Property, plant and equipmentLand and buildings as well as other fixtures and fittings,tools and equipment are measured at cost less accumulateddepreciation and impairment losses. Cost comprisesthe cost of acquisition and expenses directly related to theacquisition up until the time when the asset is ready foruse.The cost of assets of own construction comprises directand indirect expenses for materials, components,sub-contractors and labour. Borrowing costs directlyrelated to the acquisition, construction or manufacturingof a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost ofthe asset. Subsidies are deducted from cost. The cost of atotal asset is decomposed into separate constituent partswhich are depreciated separately if the individual partshave different useful lives.Subsequent expenses, eg to replace parts of an item ofproperty, plant and equipment, are recognised in the carryingamount of the asset in question when it is probablethat payment will result in future economic benefits tothe Company. The carrying amount of the parts replacedis derecognised in the balance sheet and transferred tothe income statement. Expenses for ordinary repair andmaintenance are recognised in the income statement asincurred.Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on astraight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of theassets, which are:BuildingsReconstruction of buildingsSpecial installationsRides, stationaryRides, mobileGardensOutlets, stalls, etcTools, equipment and ITLand is not depreciated.20-50 years10-15 years10 years15-25 years10 years5-10 years6-10 years3-6 yearsThe basis for depreciation is calculated taking intoaccount the residual value of the asset and is reduced byany impairment losses.The residual value is determined at the date of acquisitionbased on a specific assessment and is reassessedannually. Where the residual value exceeds the carryingamount of the asset, depreciation ceases.In the event of changes to the depreciation period or theresidual value, the effect on depreciation is recognisedprospectively as a change of accounting estimate.It should be noted specifically that the physical life of<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s rides may be significantly longer than theirentertainment life. <strong>Tivoli</strong> has chosen to depreciate therides over their entertainment life.<strong>Tivoli</strong> does not apply residual values for rides since mostof the individual ride cannot be re-established withoutmaterial changes to the constituent parts of the asset incase of dismantling of the ride.Profits and losses on the disposal of property, plant andequipment are calculated as the difference betweenselling price less costs to sell and carrying amount at thetime of sale. Profits or losses are recognised in the incomestatement under other operating income or other externalexpenses.Debt instruments receivableDebt instruments receivable are recognised in assetson the transaction dates. Debt instruments receivableare initially recognised at fair value adjusted fortransaction expenses directly related to the transaction.Subsequently, debt instruments receivable are measuredat fair value calculated on the basis of recognised valuationmethods for unlisted securities.Unrealised value adjustments are recognised directly inequity except for impairment losses and any reversal ofsuch losses. On realisation, the accumulated value adjustmentrecognised in equity is transferred to financialincome and expenses in the income statement.Impairment of non-current assetsThe carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewedon an annual basis to determine whether there is anyindication of impairment. If so, the recoverable amountof the asset is calculated. The recoverable amount is thehigher of the fair value of the asset less estimated costs tosell and value in use. Value in use is calculated as the netpresent value of expected future cash flows from the assetor the cash-generating unit of which the asset forms part.Impairment losses are recognised where the carryingamount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds therecoverable amount of the asset or the cash-generatingunit. Impairment losses are recognised in the incomestatement.It is <strong>Tivoli</strong>’s assessment that the Company has only onemeasurable cash-generating unit corresponding to thelegal entity <strong>Tivoli</strong> A/S.Impairment losses on non-current assets are reversedto the extent of any changes to the assumptions andestimates on which the impairment loss was based.47


❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖Impairment losses are reversed only where the newcarrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carryingamount that the asset would have had after depreciationif the asset had not been impaired.InventoriesInventories are measured at cost calculated under theaverage cost method. Where net realisable value is lowerthan cost, inventories are written down to the lowervalue.The cost of goods for resale comprises cost of purchase,transport and handling costs.The net realisable value of inventories is calculatedat selling price with deduction of costs to sell and isdetermined allowing for marketability, obsolescence anddevelopment in expected sales sum.ReceivablesReceivables are measured at amortised cost. Provisionsfor bad debts are made.PrepaymentsPrepayments comprise prepaid expenses relating tosubsequent financial years and are measured at amortisedcost.EquityProposed dividend is recognised as a liability at the timeof adoption at the <strong>Annual</strong> General Meeting (the time ofdeclaration). Dividend expected to be distributed for theyear is disclosed as a separate equity item.Current tax and deferred taxCurrent tax liabilities and receivables are recognised inthe balance sheet at the amount calculated on the taxableincome for the year adjusted for tax on taxable incomesfor prior years.Deferred tax is measured under the balance sheet liabilitymethod in respect of all temporary differences betweenthe carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities.However, deferred tax is not recognised in respect ofitems where temporary differences have arisen at the timeof acquisition without affecting the profit for the year orthe taxable income. In cases where the computation of thetax base may be made according to different tax rules,deferred tax is measured on the basis of Management’sintended use of the asset and settlement of the liability,respectively.Deferred tax assets, including the tax base of tax losscarry-forwards, are recognised at the value at which theyare expected to be realised, either by elimination in taxon future earnings or by set-off against deferred tax liabilitieswithin the same legal tax entity and jurisdiction.Deferred tax is measured on the basis of the tax rules andtax rates that will be effective under the legislation at thebalance sheet date when the deferred tax is expected tocrystallise as current tax. Changes to deferred tax due tochanged tax rates are recognised in the income statement.Financial liabilitiesMortgage loans and loans from credit institutionsare recognised initially at the proceeds received netof transaction expenses incurred. Subsequently, thefinancial liabilities are measured at amortised cost usingthe “effective interest method”; the difference between theproceeds and the nominal value is recognised in financialexpenses in the income statement over the loan period.Other liabilities are measured at amortised cost.Deferred incomeDeferred income comprises payments received in respectof income for subsequent years measured at amortisedcost.Cash flow statementThe cash flow statement shows cash flows for the yearbroken down by operating, investing and financing activities,changes for the year in cash and cash equivalents aswell as cash and cash equivalents at the beginning andend of the year.Cash flows from operating activities are calculated underthe indirect method as profit before tax adjusted for noncashoperating items, changes in working capital, interestpaid and corporation tax paid.Cash flows from investing activities comprise cash flowsfrom business acquisitions and sales, acquisition anddisposal of intangible assets, property, plant and equipmentand other non-current assets.Cash flows from financing activities comprise changesto the amount or structure of share capital and relatedexpenses as well as cash flows from the raising of loans,repayment of interest-bearing debt as well as dividenddistribution to shareholders.Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank andin hand.Segment reportingAt <strong>Tivoli</strong>, management responsibility is divided on eightmain areas managed by Vice Presidents. Five of the mainareas generate revenue, whereas the three remainingmain areas undertake administrative functions withinIT, Finance, Marketing and HR as well as operation andmaintenance of the Gardens. Only the first five mainareas are considered reportable according to IFRS 8. Themain area Gardens is broken down on Service and F&Bas previously.Depreciation, amortisation and financial expenses arenot allocated on to the main areas. Therefore “Profitbefore depreciation, amortisation and impairment” hasbeen chosen as a performance measure in the segmentreporting. Similarly, the balance sheet has not beenbroken down on main areas and therefore total assets permain area are not presented.48

❖tivoli ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2012</strong> ❖Note 2 – ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTSThe uncertainty of estimatesCalculation of the carrying amount of certain assetsand liabilities requires estimates, judgements andassumptions with respect to future events.The estimates and assumptions made are basedon historical experience and other factors whichManagement deems justifiable in the circumstances,but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable.The assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate,and unexpected events or circumstances may arise.Furthermore, the Company is subject to risks anduncertainties which may lead to the actual results deviatingfrom estimates. Particular risks to which theCompany is subject are mentioned in Management’sReview and note 32 to the Financial Statements.It may be necessary to change previous estimates dueto changes in the circumstances on which the previousestimates were based or due to new knowledge orsubsequent events.Estimates which are material to the financial reportingare made by, among other means, calculatingdepreciation, amortisation and impairment, residualvalues, provisions as well as contingent liabilities andassets.Accounting policiesAs part of its application of the Company’s accountingpolicies, Management makes judgements, in additionto estimates, which may materially affect the amountsrecognised in the <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong>.In <strong>2012</strong>, Management has made judgementsregarding:Residual valuesResidual values are determined at the time of acquisitionbased on a specific assessment. Managementbelieves that the residual value of rental buildings canbe determined as twice the minimum rental income.In the case of temporary structures or buildings forwhich there are specific plans to make major changes,the residual value is determined at DKK 0. For theNimb Building, the Concert Hall, the Glass HallTheatre and the Pantomime Theatre, the residualvalues have been determined at DKK 54 million,DKK 50 million, DKK 10 million and DKK 5 million,respectively.In Management’s assessment, as in previous years,residual values are not to be applied to the year’s newrides since most of the individual ride cannot be re-establishedwithout material changes to the constituentparts of the asset in case of dismantling of the ride.Useful livesIn Management’s assessment, the physical life of<strong>Tivoli</strong>’s rides may be significantly longer than theirentertainment life. <strong>Tivoli</strong> has chosen to depreciate therides over their entertainment life because the rideswill only be capable of generating positive net cashflows during their entertainment life.50

It is Company policy notto engage in speculation in relation to financial risks.The Group's financial management is directed solely atmanaging the financial risks relating to operations andfinancing.For a description of accounting policies and methods,including recognition criteria and measurement basis,reference is made to the relevant sections under accountingpolicies.Currency risk<strong>Tivoli</strong> A/S has only limited currency positions onexisting or expected future financial assets or liabilities.Liquidity risk<strong>Tivoli</strong> A/S' cash funds/overdraft facilities show materialfluctuations over the year due to seasonal fluctuations.The cash requirements are fully met by the current operatingprofit and the possibility of drawing on the bankoverdraft. The credit facility amounts to DKK 230 million(2011: DKK 230 million). Interest rate riskThe overdraft facility is a floating-rate facility. Therefore,interest income/expenses in the individual years willdepend on the short-term interest rate development.<strong>Tivoli</strong> A/S does not hedge this interest rate risk.An interest rate change of 0.5% will have a P/L effect ofsome DKK 0.7 million (2011: DKK 0.7 million).In connection with raising material, long-term loans, itis Company policy to ensure that the interest rate risk islimited. This is ensured by raising a fixed-rate loan orhedging the interest rate risk of a floating-rate loan fullyby an interest rate swap converting the floating rate to afixed interest rate.In 2008 the Company has raised a 20-year floating-ratemortgage loan of DKK 100 million for financing the Nimbreconstruction. At the same time, an interest rate swapwith a fixed interest rate of 4.97% was entered into forthe full term of the loan. Changes in the market value ofthe interest rate swap are recognised directly in Othercomprehensive income.If the floating interest rate is 1% above the fixed interestrate, the interest rate swap will have an annual positiveeffect on the Company's profit of DKK 1.0 million.If, however, the floating interest rate is 1% below the fixedinterest rate, the interest rate swap will have an annualnegative effect on the Company's profit of DKK1.0 million.Credit risksIn consequence of the Company's activities, receivablesonly arise to a minor extent. Furthermore, cash fundsare utilised to a large extent to reduce drawing on theoverdraft facility. Therefore, the Company is not materiallyexposed to credit risks.59
