    (1) Organic growth: increase in revenues at constant consolidation
        scope and exchange rates.

    (2) Currency impact is calculated by applying the average exchange
        rate for the prior year to the current fiscal year figures


For the first nine months of Fiscal 2006, the Group's organic revenue growth reflects:

--demonstrated expertise in Healthcare and Seniors markets in all geographies (+8.1%)

--the strength of the Group's international presence: Rest of the World (+14%),

--continuing innovation and excellent development in the Service Voucher and Cards activity (+16.9%).

Sodexho CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board.  Michel Landel said: "Our ongoing efforts to improve client retention and increase sales on existing sites, alongside a continuing dynamic sales effort, are at the heart of our long term strategy of organic growth. We are confident that we will slightly exceed our organic growth objective for the current year, Fiscal 2006. Organic growth should be above 5.5%."

Organic growth revenue analysis

(See table in Annex 2 and a selection of new clients in Annex 3)

Food and Management Services

--North America: + 4.3%. Organic growth benefited from last year's commercial development in Healthcare and Seniors and from good revenue growth from existing sites in Education.

--Continental Europe: + 5.8%. Continuing positive trend in Healthcare and Seniors and leisure activities in Paris area.

--United Kingdom and Ireland: + 3.1 %. Increase in line with the Group's recovery strategy.

--Rest of the World: +14%. Double-digit growth driven by strong, dynamic sales.

In North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. , revenues in Business & Industry increased by 1.9% resulting, in particular, from improved client retention. In Defense, discussions are continuing with the US Marine Corps.

The excellent organic growth of almost 7% in Healthcare and Seniors can be attributed to the following factors:

--Ramping-up of contracts signed last year, notably those concluded with New York City New York City: see New York, city.
New York City

City (pop., 2000: 8,008,278), southeastern New York, at the mouth of the Hudson River. The largest city in the U.S.
 and with Hermann Memorial (Texas);

--The strength of the Seniors segment:

--Continuous expansion of the range of services, particularly the management and maintenance of sophisticated clinical technology equipment.

In Education, satisfactory sales development on existing sites, including in Facilities Management, helped increase revenue growth by +3.6%.

In Continental Europe Continental Europe, also referred to as mainland Europe or simply the Continent, is the continent of Europe, explicitly excluding European islands and, at times, peninsulas. , the +6.6% increase in Business & Industry revenue resulted from the signature of new contracts, especially in Central Europe Central Europe is the region lying between the variously and vaguely defined areas of Eastern and Western Europe. In addition, Northern, Southern and Southeastern Europe may variously delimit or overlap into Central Europe. , Spain and France, as well as very satisfactory development of leisure and tourism activities in the Paris region The Paris region, Île-de-France, is the region surrounding France's capital city, Paris. It is the translation from the French expression, région parisienne. This most recent use of the term results in part from the creation in 1961 of the .

In Healthcare and Seniors (+8%), growth reflects the ramping up of several major contracts signed during the previous fiscal year, as well as retention rate improvement.

Slower growth in Education (+1%) reflects Sodexho's continued selective approach, particularly in public sector markets.

In the United Kingdom and Ireland, revenue increased thanks in particular to the strong sales efforts of the Correctional Services and Defense teams. In defense markets, Sodexho strengthened its leadership during the year following the award of several major new contracts.

The growth rate in Healthcare and Seniors (+19.4%) is largely attributable to the ramp-up of previously signed Private Finance Initiative contracts.

In the Rest of the World, organic growth in food and facilities management accelerated to + 14%.

In Latin America Latin America, the Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, and French-speaking countries (except Canada) of North America, South America, Central America, and the West Indies. , robust development has largely been driven by strong demand in the mining sector and continuing improvement in client retention.

In Remote Sites, solid sales team initiatives, in light of favorable business conditions in the oil, gas and mining sectors, resulted in the signing of new contract awards, in particular in Australia and Africa.

Finally, in China and India, the Group continues to rapidly expand its activities.

Service Vouchers and Cards

Organic growth: +16.9 %

Sales for the nine months increased to 273 million euro, resulting from an issue volume (face value multiplied by the number of service vouchers and cards) of 4.8 billion euro.

Traditional service offerings (Restaurant Pass and Food Pass) achieved new success as a result of:

--Sales force dynamism in all countries,

--An increase in the par value of services in several Latin American countries List of American countries

Nations:
  •  Antigua and Barbuda
  •  Bahamas
,

--Demonstrated synergies with Food service activities.

Innovative new service offerings are also growing rapidly: Childcare Pass has started well in the United Kingdom as has Flexipass in the Czech Republic Czech Republic, Czech Česká Republika (2005 est. pop. 10,241,000), republic, 29,677 sq mi (78,864 sq km), central Europe. It is bordered by Slovakia on the east, Austria on the south, Germany on the west, and Poland on the north. . This latter innovation enables Czech companies This is a list of Czech corporations:
  • Aero Vodochody
  • Agrofert
  • Bata Shoes, now headquartered in Switzerland
  • Budweiser Budvar
  • ČEZ
  • ČKD Vagonka
  • Czech Airlines
  • Czech Railways
  • OKD
  • Pilsner Urquell
  • Poldi
  • Sazka
  • Sigma Lutín

Outlook

--To reinforce its global leadership position in Food Services food services Hospital services A 24/7 department in a hospital that provides for the nutritional needs of inpatients–eg, those needing special diets, preparing meals and transporting them to the floor and, through the cafeteria, the hospital staff and
