Key Financials & Highlights - Australia

  • Net sales for second half of 2022 were increased by SGD 1.2 million. In the second half of 2022, the group had successfully negotiated with its key customers to increase the selling price, to compensate for cost inflation. The net effect on margins however was still negative as increases in prices were achieved later in the year, lagging increases in costs.
  • The average net selling price for Australia was SDG 10.77 for the second half of 2022, compared to SGD 9.41 with the same period of 2021.
Harvest tonnage (T) 769 771 1,497 1,582
Biomass end of quarter (T) 1,477 1,683 1,477 1,683

Key Financials & Highlights - Singapore

  • Net sales in the second half of 2022 were SGD 0.2 million lower than in the same period of 2021. Following the relaxation of pandemic restrictions, there was an uplift in sales to hotels and restaurants in the second half of 2022 compared with the same period in 2021. This recovery led to a change in sales mix which resulted in lower average selling price of five percent per kg in the Singapore market.
  • As previously communicated, a viral outbreak at our Semakau grow-out site in Singapore in December 2021, caused elevated mortalities which lasted throughout the first quarter of 2022. The site was harvested out in the second and third quarters. Limited stocking commenced at our new grow-out site at St. John's Island with vaccinated juveniles to carry out the planned SDDV (Scale Drop Disease Virus) vaccine field trial.

Operating Highlights – Brunei • Total sales of approximately B\$109K with sales tonnage of 12 tonnes since

  • commencing limited local and International sales to Singapore during the trial harvest in May 2022.
  • Operational and facilities improvements at RAS resulted in approx. 90% survival
  • Group Brunei R&D Trials plans for year 2023.
  • The diagnostics laboratory has been completed and commissioned. Together with animal health technicians and vets, this allows for quick local diagnostics and PCR of bacterial and viral pathogens.
  • Signed lease to Sg Paku 13ha pond site as an alternative to Pelumpong sea nursery site. This is part of Barramundi Group Brunei's 2023 trial R&D plans and future development.
  • Preliminary broodstock and hatchery facility development and planning has commenced, to provide ability to self-supply fry and fingerlings.

Key Financials & Highlights- Fassler

• Fassler's revenue for the second half of 2022 increased by SGD 1 million (17 per cent) compared with the same period of 2021 following a more aggressive digital marketing strategy, joint promotions with an online shopping platform and an increase in selling price to customers. However, early gains were eroded with the sudden and significant increases in key raw materials, cold storage and energy costs. While these increases were gradually fed through to end customers from the second quarter of 2022, there was a significant impact on our EBITDA-margin.

Outlook

  • On 27 December 2022, we announced a strategic partnership for our Australian business. On 10 January 2023, the extraordinary general meeting approved the sale of 75 per cent of our Australian subsidiary, Marine Produce Australia Pty Ltd ("MPA") to Wild Ocean Australia Pty Ltd ("WO"), in accordance with this partnership. The associated share sale agreement and shareholder agreements are signed today, 28 February 2023. The completion of the transaction is now awaiting the change of control approvals from certain stakeholders of MPA.
  • The partnership gives us a strategic Australian partner who can co-lead the application of 13 lease sites, and thus strengthens the growth potential for the farming operations in Australia. The structure of the partnership implies that we retain an effective economic interest of 50.5 percent in our Australian operations.
  • WO also owns and operates the Darwin Fish Market, which will strengthen our market position outside Australia with access to premium Australian seafood.
  • For our current operations, we expect continued strong demand for seafood in our markets. We continue to see inflationary pressure on raw materials in both farming and processing. When price increases are gradually being passed on to end consumers, this should protect our margins.
