Climate indices were vir tually stable compared with 2018, but remained 7% below the 30-year average. Portugal and France were the area’s biggest contributors, with nearly 85% of earnings.

Overall, the 4% increase in volumes (2% on a like-for-like basis) and unit margins (+1%) resulted in stable Ebitda, while the combined ef fec ts of the cost of energy-saving certificates in Corsica (CEE) and provisions for

the increase in employee-related liabilities in Switzerland (€5.1 million) took Ebit down 8%.

In total, 19 island facility set-ups provide local distribution of fuels (395 gas stations, aviation, commercial, LPG, lubricants and bitumen), managed from the 7 operational headquar ter s loc ated in Bar bados, Guadeloupe, Bermuda, Jamaica, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands and Haiti. The economic environment has improved, driven by growth in the United States, generating positive leverage in an area where Rubis Énergie has invested heavily, both commercially and in new customer prospecting.

The fiscal year 2019 saw a sharp increase of 16% in unit margins on stable volumes (+1%), taking Ebit up a significant 34%: • the contribution of the French departments in the Americas was up 8%, but was nevertheless short of the level reached in 2017, as it was still penalized by a steep increase in environmental taxation (energy- saving certificates); • the zone’s biggest contributor (Eastern Caribbean) logged a record year in fiscal

2019 (+61%), benefiting from a revaluation of margins; • Jamaica recorded strong growth of 58%, due in part to the exceptional refund of tax wrongly levied, while business was down in the Bahamas due to Cyclone Dorian, and aggressive market conditions in the aviation and automotive fuel distribution network segments; • Haiti enjoyed growth thanks to an exceptional margin structure.
