Interim report H1 2018

Highlights Goodvalley improved operational efficiency in Q2 2018 and continued to invest in stable renovations to increase capacity and efficiency going forward, while simultaneously making headway with the Goodvalley brand and name launch. The Group delivered strong operational performance and stable underlying business development across segments during the quarter, while the financial performance was impacted by lower volumes sold in the Pig segment. We were pleased to record strong operational performance in the second quarter driven by our continued efforts to enhance efficiency across the Group. The financial results for the quarter were affected by the long-term investments in building a stronger business by upgrading our facilities and launching our new branded products in Poland in August. While these accelerated investments in the future combined with the drought in Europe this summer and expectations of unfavourable pig and feed price developments for the remainder of 2018 entailed an adjustment of our outlook earlier this month, we are proud that we still expect to deliver very strong results under challenging market conditions, says CEO Tom Axelgaard.

Q2 2018 Group revenue declined to DKK 374 million (Q2 2017: DKK 421 million) due to lower pig prices and temporarily reduced capacity following stable renovations.

Pig segment revenue declined to DKK 263 million (Q2 2017: DKK 307 million) following lower prices and volumes mainly due to temporary reduced capacity in connection with stable renovations in Ukraine and lower finisher capacity in Poland, entailing an Adjusted EBITDA of DKK 68 million (Q2 2017: DKK 112 million).

The Arable segment generated revenue of DKK 9 million (Q2 2017: DKK 0 million) and moderately lower EBITDA of DKK 11 million (Q2 2017: DKK 13 million) due to reduced yield expectations in Poland following the dry Summer period.

Financial performance GROUP BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Goodvalley continued to deliver strong operational performance and generate solid KPIs in the second quarter of the year as the Group increased the number of pigs sold per sow to 31.4 (Q2 2017: 30.9) in Q2 2018 and 32.1 (H1 2017: 30.9) in H1 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017. Goodvalley maintained a strong feed conversion ratio of 2.74 (Q2 2017: 2.73) in the quarter and 2.74 for the half year (H1 2017: 2.74). The ongoing stable renovations in Ukraine progressed to plan and will be completed during 2018 to increase capacity and contribute to a further strengthening of the Group s overall operational efficiency. These efforts in combination with lower capacity at the Group s farms in Poland and a decrease in pig prices entailed lower revenue and earnings in the second quarter and the first half of 2018. INCOME STATEMENT Revenue In Q2 2018, revenue came to DKK 374 million (Q2 2017: DKK 421 million) following a decline in volumes sold in the Pig segment as well as lower average pig prices. These developments were partly offset by slightly higher revenue in the Arable segment and stable performance in the Energy segment. Total income amounted to DKK 446 million (Q2 2017: DKK 536 million) in Q2 2018 following fair value gains of DKK 68 million (Q2 2017: DKK 107 million). H1 2018 revenue amounted to DKK 725 million (H1 2017: DKK 786 million), and total income was DKK 856 million (H1 2017: DKK 943 million). Cost of goods sold The cost of goods sold was stable at DKK 343 million (Q2 2017: DKK 340 million) in Q2 2018, which was negatively impacted by higher cost in the Arable segment caused by challenging weather conditions and the expansion of the Group s land bank in Ukraine as well as increased costs in the Pig segment related to ongoing stable renovations. The quarter was positively impacted by lower costs in the Pig segment as a result of the decrease in volumes. In H1 2018, cost of goods sold was stable at DKK 630 million (DKK 631 million). SG&A Sales, general and administrative expenses increased to DKK 30 million (Q2 2017: DKK 20 million) in Q2 2018, mainly relating to the strengthening of the Group s organisation and brand, entailing higher salary cost for administrative functions and increased branding costs as well as elevated costs for IT projects. In H1 2018, the Group s SG&A amounted to DKK 56 million (H1 2017: DKK 37 million). The launch of the Goodvalley brand and name progresses to plan and is expected to entail total costs of approximately DKK 20 million during 2018 of which DKK 6 million is included in H1 figures.

EBITDA improved to DKK 2 million (Q2 2017: DKK -1 million) in Q2 2018, corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 0.9% (Q2 2017: -0.3%). The increase was driven mainly by lower input prices and an increase in volumes sold, which was partly offset by delayed contracts with a few customers.

Financial performance ARABLE The Arable segment generated revenue of DKK 9 million (Q2 2017: DKK 0 million) in Q2 2018 comprised of external revenue from sales of crops and internal revenue from sales of crops for feed and energy production. The Arable segment accounted for 2% of Group revenue before segment eliminations (Q2 2017: 0%). Total income came to DKK 89 million (Q2 2017: DKK 67 million) in Q2 2018 and includes revenue and the change in fair value of Goodvalley s crops in progress at the balance sheet date as well as grants and other income. The increase is mainly driven by an increase in the Group s total arable land to approximately 34,500 hectares following the acquisition of PE Galytski Agrarni Investytsii in Ukraine in April 2018, adding 6,500 hectares of leasehold farmland in the Ivano-frankivsk region. EBITDA declined to DKK 11 million (Q2 2017: DKK 13 million) in Q2 2018 as the dry summer period in Poland reduced yield expectations, entailing a negative impact on the fair value of the Group s crops in progress. In H1 2018, the Arable segment generated revenue of DKK 17 million (H1 2017: DKK 0 million) and EBITDA of DKK 16 million (H1 2017: DKK 20 million).

Outlook Based on year-to-date performance as well as our current expectations for the rest of the year, we maintain our recently adjusted outlook for the financial year 2018 for the Group as a whole as announced in company announcement no. 11/2018 on 10 August 2018. Goodvalley expects to generate revenue of DKK 1,400-1,550 million and Adjusted EBITDA of DKK 280-325 million. The outlook is impacted by the drought in Europe during the summer and based on assumptions for 2018 of a higher cost of feed in the Pig segment and lower performance in the Arable segment, alleviated to some extent by the Group s geographical diversification. Goodvalley s financial performance for the year is furthermore expected to be affected by lower revenue and Adjusted EBIT- DA in the Pig segment driven by ongoing stable renovations and the Group s decision to expand production of pigs raised without antibiotics ( RWA ) as well as expectations of an average market price for slaughter pigs of DKK 11.1 per kilo in 2018 against previous expectations of DKK 11.2 per kilo. In addition, the Group expects higher marketing expenses following a decision to accelerate its launch of own Goodvalley branded products in Poland based on positive feedback from consumers. The outlook for 2018 is furthermore based on fixed exchange rates as well as the prevailing economic situation in Goodvalley s markets. The outlook represents our current expectations for the development in the Group s revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, and Goodvalley s EBITDA may thus deviate significantly from this outlook.

Such statements are subject to uncertainty as factors within and beyond Goodvalley s control may cause actual performance and results to differ materially from the forecasts in this report. Such factors include, among other things, the fair value of pigs, global and local market prices of pork meat, changes in consumer preferences and demand, consumer purchasing power, competition, any outbreak of animal diseases or epidemics, the supply of utilities, development in financial markets and changes or amendments to legislation, regulation or the political situation in Goodvalley s markets.

Note 1 - Accounting principles This interim financial report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies. The accounting policies are unchanged from those applied in the Annual Report for 2017, to which reference is made, besides as stated below. Leasehold rights Payments to take over leases are classified as leasehold rights. Leasehold rights are amortised over the lease term or the useful life if this is shorter. The basis of amortisation is reduced by any write-downs. As described in the Annual Report for 2017, the income statement is presented partly by function in order to better reflect the management of the Group. EBITDA is considered to be a key financial figure for the group stakeholders, why depreciation and amortisation is presented in one line on the face of the income statement. Income statement split by function is illustrated below: GROSS PROFIT FULLY SPLIT BY NATURE: DKK MILLION H1 2018 H1 2017 GROSS PROFIT FULLY SPLIT BY NATURE: Gross profit reported 226 312 Staff expenses 110 91 SG&A (28) (16) Gross profit by nature 308 387 INCOME STATEMENT SPLIT BY FUNCTIONS (DEPRECIATION AND AMORTISATION): Revenue 856 943 Cost of goods sold including depreciation and amortisation (686) (686) GROSS PROFIT 170 256 Other operating items - - SG&A, including depreciation and amortisation (60) (43) EBIT 110 214 DEPRECIATION AND AMORTISATION CONSIST OF: Amortisation of intangible assets - - Depreciation of tangible assets (60) (60) TOTAL DEPRECIATION AND AMORTISATION (60) (60) DEPRECIATION AND AMORTISATION ARE ALLOCATED AS FOLLOWS: Cost of goods sold (56) (55) Sales and administrative costs (4) (5) TOTAL DEPRECIATION AND AMORTISATION (60) (60) Goodvalley has implemented all new and amended standards (IFRS) and interpretations (IFRIC) as endorsed by the EU and which are effective for the financial year 1 January 31 December 2018.
