3 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 3 Customer Value Management is based on customer trade offs between what they get and how much they pay, organised around customer facing processes and linked to internal business processes so pragmatic changes can be implemented Customer Value Management (CVM) Products & Services Prices & Costs Customer process Les Mills process Les Mills business processes Customer view Image & Reputation

4 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 4 The link with business processes is vital as these processes are the levers that managers can use to change customer perceptions of value and ultimately impact EBIT HR Operations Finance Sales and Marketing Customer Service Recruiting, retaining and training the right people Training Billing Communicating the value proposition of the Les Mills programmes effectively Providing the required level of service to the customers e.g. Initiative: Improve Programme Quality EBIT Impact Business processes… (across LMI and its agents) …influence customer perceptions of Les Mills performance… …which are modelled… …to provide clarity as to where Les Mills can focus its business improvement efforts and quantify what's at stake… Direct Financial Impact Cost of project Revenue gain Indirect Financial Impact Impact on customer perceptions which impacts share of wallet

5 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 5 We also know that what is important to customers can vary across their lifecycle so we also measure the key decision criteria customers use when deciding to spend on Les Mills programmes Performance on Key Decision Criteria determine likelihood to spend with Les Mills High Low New Relationship Trigger Point Customer perceptions (as shown by CVM) determine likelihood to change spend levels Time Illustrative e.g. Renegotiation of contract, bad service experience, new entrant in the market Level of consideration given to selection / changing Group Fitness Provider

6 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 6 A Customer Value Model has three key metrics which each serve a purpose in understanding perceptions of performance 3 2 1 CVM x.x ±xx Image and Reputation xx%x.x ± xx Prices and Costs xx%x.x ± xx Products and Services xx%x.x ± xx Absolute performance 1=poor, 10=excellent Change relative to 2004 survey Level of impact of driver 0-100% Impact weights vary by CVM model and by competitor CVM is a measure of the markets perceptions – as a result CVM scores take time to move as perceptions lag actions and therefore slowly change over time

7 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 7 There are a few things that need to be borne in mind when considering the results of a CVM survey

8 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 8 Number of Les Mills programmes Length of time using Les Mills programmes Proportion of timetable devoted to Les Mills programmes Number of members within the club Size of Group Fitness facilities in the club Attendance Internet connections of clubs Other Business Information Likelihood to reduce usage of Les Mills programmes in the next twelve months Customer views on who the main competition for Les Mills programmes are in each market Customer views on performance of main competition identified eClub usefulness Advanced Instructor Training usefulness Scorecard usefulness BODYPUMP ™ weight attributes Other Business Issues The five factors (rated in importance) which the customer considered in buying the Les Mills programmes initially Key Decision Criteria In addition to the customer value data, we collected data on key decision criteria, other business issues and information about the customers’ businesses as part of the survey

9 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 9 Actions that need to be carried out across all markets e.g. addressing programme quality issues Actions that need to be carried out on a market by market basis but are common across markets e.g. addressing price issues Actions that can only be carried out by LMI to address a particular issue in market e.g. change to programme content to address individual market issue Actions that need to be carried out to address issues particular to individual markets e.g. addressing billing issues Local Global LMIAgents Scope of Action Implementation of Actions The purpose of collecting this information is to form action plans to maximise profitability across the lifecycle, which because of the supply chain for Les Mills programmes, are undertaken by either LMI and / or the agent Les Mills CVM Action Framework

10 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 10 Response rates from the clubs were good enabling detailed information to be provided for seven markets – Australia, Brazil, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Baltic and U.S.A. – and indicative results for Japan China 1 response Brazil 88 responses Spain 2 responses France 74 responses Australia 81 responses Germany 59 responses The Netherlands 83 responses Baltic 92 responses Total Sample = 649 Japan 19 responses USA 151 responses The United States did not participate in the last CVM study and as a result this sample is different to the last study and this will influence the results shown

12 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 12 CVM Performance

13 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 13 The Japanese market is price sensitive with relatively poor performance in financial and non-financial costs Although pricing is determined on a market by market basis the current perceived underperformance can be addressed at both an Les Mills International level and a market level At a market level costs of operating the programs should be investigated to see how they can be reduced without impacting EBIT Les Mills International, working with the agents, should look to further develop and promote tools such as the scorecard and benefit calculators that club owners can use to measure success of the programs which will put the price in context and switch focus to the inherent qualities of the program which currently rate well Performance is relatively poor on non-financial costs which are also high impact drivers Issues causing this low performance should be investigated to understand what is causing this performance People associated with the Les Mills programs have a reputation for being fair, likeable and credible, which is important to customers Insights and Implications Japan Indicative only due to small sample size

14 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 14 Overall perceived value is good in Japan but the poor performance and high importance for prices and costs is reducing the overall score Prices and costs are important in Japan but performing poorly at 6.2 Image and reputation is also relatively important and like in most other countries Les Mills performs well in this area in Japan Performance on products and services is also relatively good at 7.6 Insights and Implications Japan Note: (1) Sample size n = 19 Perceived value of Les Mills products to clubs Image and Reputation Products and Services Prices and Costs Overall CVM Performance (1) Process xx%x.x Key: Impact Weight 2007 CVM Score Indicative only due to small sample size Perceived value of the Les Mills system to clubs

16 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 16 Using the programs Getting set up and going Using the services Products and services account for a relatively small amount of perceived value in Japan with performance generally being good although definitely lower for using the services and account management Products and Services Product and Services CVM Performance (1) Account management Billing Billing is one of the main drivers of perceived value and performs well Account management is the other leading driver but performance is relatively poor at 6.9 Using the services is also underperforming suggesting that some investigation should be placed into how to improve perceptions of the non-program aspects of the Les Mills system Insights and Implications Japan Note: (1) Sample size n = 19 Process xx%x.x Key: Impact Weight 2007 CVM Score Indicative only due to small sample size

18 J:\Les Mills Int\8007 Club CVM Proposal\Reports and Presentations\LMI Club Owner CVM Report v6.ppt 18 Ensuring programs are innovative and exciting Ensuring ongoing quality of programs Providing programs that generate a return on investment In general customers are happy with the inherent qualities of the programs, although they are less convinced that programs provide a return on investment Using the programs Using the programs CVM Performance (1) Providing updated programs on a timely basis Providing programs and training to recruit and retain the best instructors All aspects contribute to overall perceived value of using the programs However the two leading drivers, provision of programs and training to recruit and retain the best instructors and having programs that generate a return on investment are both underperforming All other aspects are performing well close to or above 8.0 Proving the return on investment of the programs is important in addressing poor price perceptions Although indicative due to small sample size, it is interesting to note that clubs perceive that programs do have a reputation for bringing in and retaining customers but do not rate the programs as highly on generating a return on investment As in other markets work is required to assist in the recruitment and retention of instructors Insights and Implications Japan Note: (1) Sample size n = 19 Process xx%x.x Key: Impact Weight 2007 CVM Score Indicative only due to small sample size
