HAMILTON, BERMUDA— Orient-Express Hotels Ltd., which owns and operates 40 deluxe hotels, restaurants, tourist trains and river cruise ships in 15 countries, posted results for the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2001. Net earnings for the full year 2001 were $29.9 million ($0.97 per common share), down 25% from the previous years net earnings of $40 million ($1.43 per common share.) Revenue dropped 5% to $261.3 million from $276.4 million in 2000. Devaluations of the Brazilian Real and South Africa Rand, plus a stronger-than-expected value of the U.S. dollar in relation to European currencies contributed to the earnings decline; however, the major cause was the impact of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. This fallout is shown in the fourth-quarter results, which generated net earnings of $3 million ($0.10 per common share) compared with $11.9 million ($0.38 per common share) in the fourth quarter of 2000.
