The consolidated equity amounted to € 142.9 million as at 31 December 2020, compared with € 143.4 million as at 31 December 2019.
The net financial indebtedness of the Group increased by € 6.6 million in 2020 to € 98.7 million (excluding lease commitment debts - IFRS 16 Leases). This increase may be attributed primarily to the investments made during the financial year and, in particular, to the acquisition by our subsidiary Biobest of the American company Beneficial Insectary Inc. in November 2020. The consolidated cash position is sound at € 49.5 million.

The Floridienne Group turnover in 2020 amounted to € 373.9 million, down 9% compared with € 410.3 million in 2019. This reduction of € 36.4 million or 9% of the turnover may be attributed mainly to the loss of certain salmon trading markets, the negative impact of Covid-19 on our Food Service sales and the exit of IKA from the consolidation scope on 30 September 2020 following its sale.
The EBITDA amounted to € 38 million as at 31 December 2020, up € 3.7 million compared with € 34.4 million as at 31 December 2019. The three Divisions of the Floridienne Group stood up well to the historically difficult context linked to the Covid-19 pandemic, recording a stable or improved EBITDA compared with the previous financial year.
Amortisations and impairments amounted to € 18.7 million. The impairments relate mainly to certain activities in our Life Sciences Division (€ 2.9 million) and € 1.2 million recorded on 30 June 2020 on the goodwill of activities of the German company IKA, our PVA stabilisers subsidiary.
The operating result fell by € 1.6 million owing to the extraordinary impairments recognised. It stood at € 19.4 million in 2020, compared with € 21 million the year before.
The sale of IKA was concluded on 6 October 2020 and resulted in an accounting loss of € 1.6 million recognised in impairments for € 1.2 million (booked as at 30 June 2020) and in the result from disposal of non-current assets for € 0.4 million.
The Group therefore closed its 2020 financial year with a consolidated net result of € 8.4 million, down € 4.7 million compared with € 13.2 million in 2019. The Group's share of the net result fell to € 4.3 million, compared with € 9.1 million as at 31 December 2019.

In 2020, the equity situation was impacted mainly by:
• The consolidated result for the period of € 8.4 million.
• The dividends paid to non-controlling shareholders in certain consolidated companies for the 2020 financial year amounting to € -2.3 million.
• The change in conversion rate adjustments (€ -5.8 million).
• The re-assessment of debts linked to the selling and buying options with minority interests (- € 1.5 million).
• A transaction affecting the percentage held in subsidiaries without entailing a modification in the controlling interest (€ 0.6 million).
Please note, as regards the 2019 financial year, Floridienne did not distribute dividends owing to the uncertainties linked to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
As regards the 2020 financial year, the Board of Directors will put a proposal to the Floridienne Annual General Meeting to pay a gross dividend of € 2.3 per share.

In the context of the statutory audit of the consolidated financial statements of FLORIDIENNE SA (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together referred to as 'the Group'), we hereby submit our statutory auditor's report. This report includes our report on the consolidated financial statements and the other legal and regulatory requirements. These parts should be considered as integral to the report.
We have been appointed in the capacity of statutory auditor by the general shareholders' meeting of 5 June 2018, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors ("bestuursorgaan" / "organe d'administration") issued upon recommendation of the audit committee. Our statutory auditor's mandate expires on the date of the general meeting deliberating on the annual accounts closed on 31 December 2020. We have performed the statutory audit of the consolidated financial statements of FLORIDIENNE SA for at least 20 consecutive periods.
We have performed the statutory audit of the Group's consolidated financial statements, which comprise the consolidated statement of the financial position as at 31 December 2020, the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. The consolidated statement of financial position shows total assets of 390.756.(000) EUR and the consolidated income statement shows a profit for the year then ended of 8.443.(000) EUR.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group's net equity and financial position as at 31 December 2020, as well as of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and with the legal and regulatory requirements applicable in Belgium.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the 'Statutory auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements' section in this report. We have complied with all the ethical requirements that are relevant to the audit of consolidated financial statements in Belgium, including those concerning independence.
We have obtained from the Board of Directors and company's officials the explanations and information necessary for performing our audit.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Statutory auditor's report Financial Year 2020
Without qualifying our opinion expressed here above, we draw attention to Note 15 [Other non-current and current assets] of the consolidated financial statements containing a description of the uncertainty related to the fair value valuation of the investment in the company Larzul, shown in other non-current financial assets (2,6 MEUR), and the receivables held on that company (1,5 MEUR), particularly with

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated accounts as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

|---|---|
| Valuation of Goodwill As of December 31, 2020, the net goodwill included in the assets of the FLORIDIENNE Group's statement of financial position amounts to 96.405 KEUR and represents 24,7 % of total assets. The details of goodwill are presented in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements. Under IFRS (IAS 36 – Impairment of assets] , the company is required to perform an annual impairment test on goodwill. Based on the annual impairment test on goodwill, the Board of Directors concluded that no impairment loss on goodwill was to be recognized. The main assumptions and sensitivities are presented in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements. We have considered that the valuation of goodwill and the annual impairment test on these assets constitute a key audit matter since ▪ the importance of these assets in FLORIDIENNE's consolidated financial statements; ▪ the judgment and the accounting estimates required by the Board of Directors in the assessment of potential impairment losses, which are based in particular on assumptions (prospective data and valuation parameters) that are influenced by the current and future economic conditions. |
Our audit approach to assess the goodwill valuation is based on a detailed analysis – on a sample base - of the forecasts and the annual impairment test. The work included, amongst others: ▪ an assessment of the mathematical accuracy of the calculations; ▪ a reconciliation with the prospective data approved by the Board of Directors; ▪ an analysis of the assumptions used in the underlying analysis process of the annual impairment test prepared by the Board of Directors, including expected future cash flows, growth rates, discount rates and other relevant assumptions; ▪ a test of the "robustness" of assumptions used by challenging them with past experience, and particularly the assumptions applied in previously used models (back testing). Furthermore, we have assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of the disclosures provided by the company in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 36. |

| Accounting for business combinations In 2020, the FLORIDIENNE Group entered into a business combination (IFRS 3 – Business combinations) through obtaining control over the American company Beneficial Insectary (Lifescience division) as from the 30th of November 2020. As a result of this transaction, the group performed a provisional purchase price allocation resulting in the recognition of a goodwill for a total amount of 30.274 KEUR. The final purchase price allocation was not yet finalized, as the group has 12 months following the date of obtaining control (IFRS 3). We considered that the Beneficial Insectary business combination was important for our audit because of the judgments applied in the provisional allocation of the purchase price, particularly in relation to the contractual bonuses provided for in the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA). |
With regard to the accounting of the acquisitions, we have, amongst others, ▪ reviewed the acquisition agreements, assessed the appropriateness of the accounting treatment and evaluated the disclosures to the notes to the consolidated financial statements with that regard [Note 32]. ▪ Performed specific procedures on the opening balance of that company, particularly based on financial and legal due diligence reports; ▪ tested the identification and consistency of the underlying assumptions used in the determination of the value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by the Group; |

The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and with the legal and regulatory provisions applicable in Belgium, and for such internal control as the board of directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the board of directors either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a statutory auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statement.
In carrying out our audit, we comply with the legal, regulatory and normative framework applicable to the audit of consolidated financial statements. The scope of the audit does not comprise any assurance regarding the future viability of the company nor regarding the efficiency or effectiveness demonstrated by the board of directors in the way that the company's business has been conducted or will be conducted. Our responsibilities regarding the application by the Board of Directors of the going concern principle are described hereafter.

We communicate with the audit committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit as well as significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit.
We also provide the audit committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and, where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the audit committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year, and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our statutory auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.

The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and the content of the directors' report on the consolidated financial statements and other matters disclosed in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements.
As part of our mandate and in accordance with the Belgian standard (revised version 2020) which is complementary to the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in Belgium, it is our responsibility to verify, in all material aspects, the director's report on the consolidated financial statements and the other information included in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements, as well as to report on these elements.
Aspects related to Board of Director's report on the consolidated financial statements and to the other information included in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements
In our opinion, after having performed specific procedures in relation to the director's report, the director's report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements for the same financial year, and it is prepared in accordance with article 3:32 of the Code of companies and associations.
In the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements, we are also responsible for considering, in particular based on the knowledge we have obtained during the audit, whether the director's report on the consolidated financial statements and other information disclosed in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements (i.e. Group Profile, Key Figures of the Group and Corporate Governance Statement) contains any material misstatements, i.e. any information which is inadequately disclosed or otherwise misleading. Based on the procedures we have performed, there are no material misstatements we have to report to you. We do not express any form of assurance whatsoever on the director's report on the consolidated financial statements.
The non-financial information required pursuant to article 3:32, § 2 of the Code of companies and associations is included in the director's report on the consolidated financial statements, section "Statement on non-financial information / Corporate Social Responsibility". In preparing this nonfinancial information, the company did not rely on a recognized European or international reference framework. Furthermore, we do not express any assurance on the individual elements included in this non-financial information.
