The Board of Directors of L'Oréal met on February 11^th, 2013 under the
chairmanship of Jean-Paul Agon and in the presence of the Statutory Auditors.
The Board closed the consolidated financial statements and the financial
statements for 2012.
Commenting on the annual results, Mr Jean-Paul Agon, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of L'Oréal, said:
"2012 was a good year for L'Oréal on many fronts. The Group achieved strong
sales growth, and once again demonstrated its ability to outperform the beauty
market, and to gain market share, even in the more difficult markets of
Western Europe and the United States. 2012 was also a very good vintage in
terms of innovations - amongst the most remarkable in the industry - in each
of our Divisions and major business segments.
2012 also marked a milestone in the acceleration of the Group's
internationalisation, as the "New Markets" became the number one geographic
zone.
Lastly, the profits and cash flow have grown very strongly, reaching record
levels, and confirming the power of our business model.
In view of these successes and improvements, we are facing the future with
optimism and confidence. Confidence in the positive dynamics of our market.
Confidence in the strength of our "Beauty for all" mission, in our
"universalisation" strategy, and in our ambition to conquer one billion new
consumers. And finally, confidence in the fundamentals of L'Oréal: its
research, its ability to innovate and create high quality products, its
outstanding portfolio of brands, its business model, which creates both value
and cash flow, and lastly the unique strength of its teams.
The Group is thus well prepared to outperform the market in 2013, and to
achieve another year of sales and profit growth."
The Board of Directors has decided to propose to the Annual General Meeting of
April 26^th, 2013 the payment of a dividend of 2.30 euros per share, an
increase of +15% compared with the previous year, and the setting up of a new
share buyback plan amounting to 500 millions in the 1^st half of 2013.
The Board will also propose to the Annual General Meeting the renewal of the
terms of office of Mrs Françoise Bettencourt Meyers, of Mr Peter
Brabeck-Letmathe and Mr Louis Schweitzer. It will also propose the appointment
as new Board Director of Mrs Virginie Morgon, Executive Board Member and Chief
Investment Officer of Eurazeo, one of the leading investment companies listed
in Europe.
*Diluted net earnings per share, based on net profit excluding non-recurring
items after non-controlling interests.

1) Cosmetics sales
PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS
In a market affected by the slowdown in southern European countries, and the
low weight of the New Markets, the Professional Products Division posted +2.1%
like-for-like and +6.7% reported growth in 2012.
* In the technical products category, the new-generation long-lasting hair
colourant ODS2 (Oil Delivery System) was rolled out worldwide under the
brands INOA2 by L'Oréal Professionnel, Chromatics by Redken and, at the
end of the year, ColorInsider by Matrix.
Haircare is growing strongly, boosted by hair oils, and by the rising
momentum of the Division's luxury brands: Kérastase, with Cristalliste and
with the recent launch of Initialiste, the first beauty serum with plant
stem cells, along with Pureology and Shu Uemura Art of Hair.
* The Division is making progress in Germany, France and the United Kingdom,
but sales have receded in southern Europe because of a decline in salon
visits. In the United States, the year was marked by SalonCentric's supply
chain reorganisation. The Division's positions are rising strongly in the
New Markets in Eastern Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
CONSUMER PRODUCTS
The Consumer Products Division achieved sales growth of +5% like-for-like and
+8.9% based on reported figures, driven by strategic advances in Western
Europe and North America, along with major product initiatives.
* Haircare is growing strongly, thanks to the good results of the renewal of
Elvive by L'Oréal Paris, its new Arginine Resist for fragile hair, and
hair oils.
In hair colourants, the year-end was marked by the launch of Olia by
Garnier, the first home-use hair colourant to feature ODS technology. This
initiative, which marks a breakthrough in the market, is making a strong
start in Western Europe, and will then be rolled out worldwide.
The facial skincare category is growing, thanks to the worldwide success
of RevitaliftLaser by L'Oréal Paris, a major anti-ageing innovation with a
high concentration of Proxylane, and BB Cream by Garnier, whose success
has effectively created a completely new category.
Finally, the make-up category was enlivened by the innovative Volume
Express Mega Plush mascara by Maybelline and by the start of the
internationalisation of the Essie brand.
* The Division set a new all-time record for market share in Western Europe
- notably in France - along with North America. In the New Markets, the
Division is improving its positions in Mexico, Chile, Indonesia, Thailand
and Turkey.
L'ORÉAL LUXE
In 2012, L'Oréal Luxe sales grew by 8.3% like-for-like and +16% based on
reported figures. In each of the four quarters, the Division significantly
outperformed market growth, thanks especially to the dynamism of Lancôme, and
the good performances in Asia and North America.
* The Lancôme brand grew strongly, driven by innovations - in facial
skincare with Génifique Yeux Light Pearl, and in fragrances with the
launch of La Vie est Belle, the top worlwide launch of the year in its
category - and thanks to the brand's new premium luxury positioning, with
Absolue L'Extrait. The year 2012 also brought a change of status for Yves
Saint Laurent, which received the Prestige Brand of the Year award from
the American magazine WWD: the brand is strengthening its multi-business
segment dimension with the launch of Forever Youth Liberator facial
skincare, the success in make-up of Vernis à Lèvres, and more recently,
the European launch of the women's perfume, Manifesto.
The strategic facial skincare category is growing strongly. The successes
of Lancôme are backed up by the powerful worldwide growth of Kiehl's and
the expansion of Clarisonic in instrumental cosmetics in the United
States.
Women's fragrances are also being supported by the launch of Ralph
Lauren's Big Pony Collection for Women and by the rising momentum of
Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf.
In make-up, the end of the year was notable for the launch of Maestro
foundation by Giorgio Armani, with a remarkably innovative formula, and
finally for the acquisition in December of the Californian make-up brand
Urban Decay.
* The Division outperformed the market in all the major zones and in Travel
Retail.
ACTIVE COSMETICS
2012 was a particularly good year for the Division, with sales growth of 5.8%
like-for-like, and 7.5% based on reported figures, which is roughly twice as
fast as the trend in the dermocosmetics market.
* 2012 brought a new start for Vichy, driven by its new brand identity, and
strong initiatives such as Idéalia, in skincare, and Dercos Neogenic, the
first hair redensifying treatment with stemoxydine.
The La Roche-Posay brand, strongly established with 25,000 dermatologists,
is maintaining its strong growth rate, and has in fact become the top
dermocosmetics brand in Brazil. Its latest innovation, Redermic-R is
extremely promising.
The Division's relay brands are making a strong contribution to its
success. SkinCeuticals, the premium medical and professional brand, is
continuing its internationalisation.
* Lastly, 2012 was the first-ever year in which the Division made more than
50% of its sales outside Western Europe. It also made a breakthrough in
North America, and is maintaining its strong dynamism in Latin America.
Multi-division summary by geographic zone
WESTERN EUROPE
The European context saw the decline of markets in the southern countries,
particularly in hair salons and the luxury segment, and the resilience of the
rest of Europe. At 12 months, L'Oréal sales increased by +0.6% like-for-like,
and +2.1% based on reported figures, thus raising its market share,
particularly in the Consumer Products Division, which consolidated its number
one position. The Group performed well, particularly in France - where the
acquisition of Cadum fully played its part - in the United Kingdom, in Germany
and in Northern Europe.
NORTH AMERICA
In North America, L'Oréal ended 2012 with growth of 7.2% like-for-like and
18.3% based on reported figures. The good results seen in 2011 were surpassed
in 2012. The Consumer Products Division became n°1 in its segment, thanks to
strong growth at Garnier, Maybelline and Essie. The end of the year was marked
by the strategic launch of L'Oréal Paris Advanced Hair Care. L'Oréal Luxe
outperformed its market, thanks especially to Clarisonic. The Active Cosmetics
Division significantly increased its presence in drugstores.
NEW MARKETS
* Asia, Pacific: L'Oréal achieved annual growth of +9.6% like-for-like and
+18.4% based on reported figures. The Group is increasing market share in
the region. While the selective channel context slowed in the second half,
particularly in South Korea and in Travel Retail, L'Oréal strengthened its
positions thanks to initiatives by Lancôme, Kiehl's and Yves Saint
Laurent.
In China, the Group grew faster than the market, especially with L'Oréal
Luxe, Maybelline and L'Oréal Paris Men Expert. India, Indonesia and
Thailand are particularly dynamic, driven by local initiatives such as
Colossal Kajal by Maybelline, and the Garnier Men range.
* Eastern Europe : With sales growth of +3.9% like-for-like and +5.1% based
on reported figures, the Group is continuing its recovery, and is once
again growing faster than the market. The turnaround is being driven by
the Professional Products Division, with its conquest of new hair salons,
particularly in Russia and Poland, and by the Consumer Products Division,
thanks to the success of Elvive Arginine by L'Oréal Paris and Garnier
ColorSensation hair colourants.
* Latin America : L'Oréal achieved like-for-like growth of +10.4% and +8.7%
based on reported figures, with increased growth in the second half. In
2012, L'Oréal became the market leader in Mexico, and expanded its
positions in Chile, Argentina and Uruguay.
L'Oréal accelerated its roll-out in the countries of Central America, and
in Colombia, with the acquisition of the Vogue brand, the mass-market
make-up leader in Colombia.
In Brazil, the initiatives of Elvive Arginine Resist, hair oils and hair
colourants led to an improvement in positions. The dynamism of the Active
Cosmetics Division in this zone is also worth noting.
* Africa, Middle East : With growth of +14.7% like-for-like and +17.6% based
on reported figures, the Africa Middle East zone recorded very good
performances in Turkey, the Gulf States and the Levant. 2012 was notable
for the rising momentum of new subsidiaries in Egypt and Kenya, and the
opening of a new subsidiary in Saudi Arabia.
2) The Body Shop sales
2012 was a year of acceleration for The Body Shop, whose sales grew by +4.9%
like-for-like and +11.4% based on reported figures.
The brand unveiled its new "Beauty with Heart" identity in 2012, and started
rolling out the new "Pulse" store concept. In addition, The Body Shop
continued its multi-channel approach with a strong increase in e-commerce.
In 2012, the brand strengthened its offering in skincare categories, with the
success of the Chocomania bodycare range, and in facial skincare, with the
innovative Drops of Youth.
The Body Shop achieved dynamic sales in the Middle East and in south-east
Asia, while recording solid scores in Europe.
3) Galderma sales
Galderma sales increased by +5.9% like-for-like and +12.9% based on reported
figures, with a fourth quarter which, as announced, reflected the impact of
competition from generics in prescription products, especially in the United
States.
Epiduo (acne) and Oracea (rosacea) are continuing to grow in the prescription
products category. Epiduo is the world's leading prescription product in the
topical acne treatment market.
Sales of over-the-counter (OTC) products increased strongly, driven by
Cetaphil (a hydrating and cleansing skincare range).
The strong growth of the Restylane range (dermal filler) and the success of
Azzalure (muscle relaxant) have this year once again helped to make Galderma
one of the world leaders in the aesthetic and corrective dermatology market.
Asia and Latin America are growing strongly.

in the context of arbitrage with advertising and promotion expenses.
Research expenses increased strongly at +9.7%, and remained stable as a

investments, at 955 million euros, amounted to 4.3% of sales, an identical
level to 2011. As a result, operating cash flow increased by 26.4%.

Group recorded, at December 31^st, 2012, a net cash surplus of 1,575 million
euros, compared with 504 million euros at end-2011.
The balance sheet structure is very solid. The reinforcement of shareholders'
equity compared with end-2011 is mainly the result of profit allocated to

price.
