Corporate Presentation                                   11
Drivers of growth
Helping couples find the perfect vacation

•    New standard for saving Urlaubers time
•    Choices based on combination of user generated
     content and recommendations of our travel experts

     experience

Corporate Presentation                                        12

•   Successful brand campaign on selected TV stations, leading news portals,
    YouTube and outdoor advertising
•   Goal: Strengthen brand awareness and draw particular attention on booking
    opportunity
•   Campaign to be continued in Q4 2018 and 2019

•   Important note: Apples-to-apples comparison of brand marketing costs only
    possible Q3, 2018 and beyond

Corporate Presentation                                  14
Drivers of growth
Delivering superior, personal customer service

It’s one of our strategic pillars to connect real people with
real people
• We invested in people and scalability
• Our service center with 150 skilled travel agents is a
     sales channel, not a call center
• Calls to our team result in higher average selling price
     vs. online

Corporate Presentation                                          15
Drivers of growth
The best team in the travel industry
Attract the best Talents
•   We don‘t just hire from the best travel
    companies, but the best companies
    anywhere

Motivate Talents
•   We have a system to make all our employees
    shareholders of HCG; company shares are
    part of the salary package

Talent Investments
• 2017 step change investment into headcount
  in customer-facing service center, software
  developers and data science experts
• Going forward, no longer need to invest
  ahead of growth
