PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

KSG Agro S.A., separately referred to as "KSG Agro" or the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries referred to as the "Group", remains among the largest vertically integrated agricultural groups in the Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine, present in all major sectors of the agricultural market, including production, storage, processing and sale of agricultural products. Its key operating activities are breeding of pigs, processing of pork and production of wheat and sunflower.

IMPACT OF THE WAR EVENTS IN UKRAINE

On 24 February 2022, Russia started a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Because the Group's key assets and operations are in Ukraine, the Group might be significantly affected by these events. Management's analysis of the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Invasion, as well as management's strategy and actions to mitigate those risks, are outlined in Note 7 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The outcome of the Invasion, however, is impossible to predict at this time.

Since the start of the Russian Invasion, no fighting occurred in close vicinity to the Group's assets. The Group's pig farm and its crop fields are located in the centre of Ukraine, which hasn't seen any fighting yet.

As at the date of this report, the Group had successfully completed its summer harvesting campaign and does not expect significant interruptions to its production cycle in the near future.

Where possible, the judgments and estimates used in the accompanying financial statements were updated to reflect the impact of the ongoing war events. However, adopting a more conservative approach, management only considered the events that had an unfavourable effect on such judgments and estimates.

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

The Group continues to implement its simple strategy of focusing on three winter crops, two summer crops and pigs of a single breed. The Group's products, being basic food products, are always in demand, and remain in especially high demand in 2023, during war time.

In the first half of 2023, the Group exported 4.2 thousand tonnes of grain crops (wheat, corn, barley), mainly to Asia and Africa. Export deliveries were made within the framework of the existing grain corridor through the ports of Odesa and the Odesa region.

During late May to early June, the Group completed the sowing of sunflower on an area of 7.3 thousand hectares and is currently engaged in chemical and mechanical soil treatment using mechanical cultivators and rotary harrows. The crops appear to be in good condition.

The sowing campaign was carried out as planned, without major interruptions from the war activities.

Earlier in June, the Kakhovka Dam on the Dnipro River was destroyed as a result of the war, flooding the areas downstream and drying up several irrigation canals upstream. While the Group partly relied on water supplied from those canals, those supplies were not essential to the Group's operations. The Group switched to alternative sources of water and does not anticipate water shortages in the near future. None of the Group's locations are downstream from the Dam and hence were not affected by the flooding.

As at the date of this report, the Group has completed its harvesting campaign of winter crops. The yields were 3 tons per hectare for barley, 2.5 tons per hectare for rapeseed, and 5 tons per hectare for wheat.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Consolidated financial results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

In thousands of US dollars	Six months 2023	Six months 2022	Change, %
Revenue	7,406	6,022	+23%
Gain/(loss) on biological transformation, net	192	1,636	-88%
Cost of sales	(5,804)	(5,604)	+4%
Gross profit	1,794	2,054	-13%
Operating profit	936	1,484	-37%
Depreciation and amortisation	676	737	-8%
EBITDA	1,612	2,221	-27%
Profit for the period	1,040	858	+21%

Revenue in 2023 was comparably larger, due to lower sales in the first quarter of 2022, which were heavily affected by the start of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine. Just like the prior year, in 2023 the Group used more of its own grain for feed production instead of purchasing it (to decrease reliance on outside suppliers of feed components during wartime), but in 2023 the Group also started exporting crops, thereby increasing the volume of sales as compared to 2022.

Details by segment are disclosed in Note 12 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

The Board is currently formulating a new development strategy to expand the Group's activity in the European Union, with a clear target to have the majority of the Group's assets and revenues in the EU within the next 3 to 5 years. This could be achieved through a series of mergers and acquisitions, and financed by a mix of own and borrowed funds, including additional issues of shares.

The Board does not plan to dispose of the Group's existing assets in Ukraine. On the contrary, the focus of the new strategy is to expand and invest, thereby reducing the potential risks of investing only in Ukraine and mitigating the negative effects on the Group's business of the current macroeconomic situation in Ukraine.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

All significant events that occurred after the end of the reporting period are described in Note 15 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL RISKS

Credit risk

The Group takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Exposure to credit risk arises as a result of the Group's sales of products on credit terms and other transactions with counterparties giving rise to financial assets.

Credit risk concentration

The Group is exposed to the concentration of credit risk. Management monitors and discloses concentrations of credit risk by obtaining monthly reports with exposures to customers with individually material balances.

Market risk

The Group takes an exposure to market risks. Market risks arise from open positions in (a) foreign currencies, (b) interest bearing assets and liabilities, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements. The Group does not have significant interest-bearing financial assets, while the Group's bank and other loans are interest-bearing.

Interest rate risk

Risk of changes in interest rates is generally related to interest-bearing loans. Loans issued at variable rates expose the borrower to the 'cash flow' interest rate risk, while loans issued at fixed rates expose the borrower to the 'fair value' interest rate risk.

Currency risk

Foreign currency exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The Group is mostly susceptible to the currency risk with regard to its long-term loan from a related party.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. Liquidity risk is managed by monitoring monthly rolling forecasts of the Group's cash flows. The Group seeks to maintain a stable funding base mostly through proper management of its working capital and using short-term bank and company loans to cover the cash gaps.

In assessing day-to-day performance of the business, management excludes 'other financial assets' and 'other financial liabilities', as those mostly comprise old non-trade balances subject to restructuring, and analyses the change in the resultant 'adjusted working capital'. Based on management's assessment, the adjusted working capital is sufficient.

Capital Risk Management

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders as well as to provide financing of its operating requirements, capital expenditures and Group's development strategy. The Group's capital management policies aim to ensure and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the overall cost of capital and flexibility relating to Group's access to capital markets.

In thousands of US dollars	30 June 2023	31 December 2022
Bank and other loans	27,634	27,735
Less: cash and cash equivalents	(153)	(271)
Net debt	27,481	27,464
Total equity	(11,855)	(12,458)
Net Debt to Equity Ratio	(2.3)	(2.2)

Management monitors on a regular basis the Group's capital structure and may adjust its capital management policies and targets following changes in its operating environment, market sentiment or its development strategy.

Management believes it is responding appropriately to all the risks identified in order to support the sustainability of the Group's business in the current circumstances.

The registered office of the Company is at 24, rue Astrid, L-1143 Luxembourg and the Company number with the Registre de Commerce is B 156 864.

The Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") produces, stores, processes and sells agricultural products, mostly crops, pork and pigs in live weight, and its business activities are conducted mainly in Ukraine.

2. GROUP STRUCTURE

S.A. holds 57.96% of the issued share capital of the Company, 0.21% of shares are treasury shares and the remaining 41.83% are free float shares listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

Principal activities of the entities forming the Group and the Company's effective ownership interest in these entities as at 30 June 2023 and 31 December 2022 were as follows:

	Country of	Effective ownership, %

The Group fully consolidates all subsidiaries, including those where it owns less than 51 per cent of the equity shares. Based on the contractual arrangements between the Group and other investors, the Group has the power to appoint and remove the majority of the board of directors of these subsidiaries. Relevant activities of the subsidiaries are determined by their boards of directors based on simple majority votes. Therefore, management of the Group concluded that the Group has control over the subsidiaries and the subsidiaries are consolidated in these financial statements.

3. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT AND GOING CONCERN

In determining the appropriate basis for preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors and management are required to consider whether the Group can continue in business for the foreseeable future.

Financial performance of the Group is naturally dependent upon weather conditions in areas of operation and the wider economic environment of Ukraine. To mitigate these risks, the Group continues to implement its strategy of focusing on more profitable segments, pig breeding and crop farming, and improving their performance.

As discussed in the Group's last annual financial statements, management are not aware of any uncertainties which might jeopardize going concern, other than the outcome of the ongoing Russian Invasion, its impact on the security of the Group's assets and its long-lasting effects on Ukrainian economy. Management's analysis of the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Invasion, as well as management's strategy and actions to mitigate those risks, are outlined in Note 3 of the Group's last annual financial statements.

The Board of Directors concluded that, based on the above analysis, and except for the uncertainty regarding the outcome of the ongoing Russian Invasion, its impact on the security of the Group's assets and its long-lasting effects on Ukrainian economy, there is reasonable expectation that the Group can continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are being issued. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

4. ADOPTION OF NEW OR REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS

Management have reviewed the following new and amended IFRS Standards and Interpretations and adopted the ones that are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023:

• New standard IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts;
• Amendments to IAS 1, IAS 8 and IAS 12.

As a result of the review, management conclude that adoption of the above Standards and Interpretations will not have any material effect on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in both current and future periods.

5. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations of IFRS issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"), and as adopted by the European Union.

Specifically, these financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting and should be read in conjunction with the Group's last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2022 ('last annual financial statements').

These financial statements are condensed, i.e. they do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that management deemed significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

The accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Group's last annual financial statements. Any changes in accounting policies during the interim period are also expected to be reflected in the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ending 31 December 2023.

Functional and presentation currency

The currency of each consolidated entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The functional currency for most of the consolidated entities is the Ukrainian hryvnia. As the Group's management use USD when monitoring operating results and financial condition of the Group, the presentation currency of these financial statements is USD.

The exchange rates used for translating foreign currency balances were:

	USD	EUR
As at 31 December 2022	36.5686	38.9510
Average for the six months ended 30 June 2022	28.9066	31.7356
As at 30 June 2023	36.5686	40.0006
Average for the six months ended 30 June 2023	36.5686	39.5236
As at the date these financial statements are being issued	36.5686	40.2145

6. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Management make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management also make certain judgements, apart from those involving estimations, in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies.

The Russian Invasion of Ukraine had started in late February 2022 and is still ongoing as at the date these consolidated financial statements are being issued. Because the Group's key assets and operations are in Ukraine, a number of the Group's estimates, assumptions and judgments used to compile these consolidated financial statements might be significantly affected by these events. Furthermore, some assumptions involve varying degrees of uncertainty and would even be impossible to formulate at this time; especially those relating to the outcome of the Russian Invasion.

Where possible, the judgments and estimates used in these consolidated financial statements were updated to reflect the impact of the ongoing war events. Other judgments and estimates were the same as those that applied to the last annual financial statements.

7. RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE. CURRENT SITUATION

On 24 February 2022, Russia started a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. After an initial series of air strikes, which targeted key military infrastructure, Russian ground troops moved in across the whole length of the state border between Russia and Ukraine (north-east and east), as well as south from the annexed Crimea. Facing heavy resistance from the Ukrainian forces, Russian ground troops failed to gain a significant foothold in Ukraine fast enough and their ground progress has eventually stalled.

Since the start of the Russian Invasion, no fighting occurred in close vicinity to the Group's assets. The Group's pig farm and its crop fields are located in the centre of Ukraine, which hasn't seen any fighting yet.

Current situation

Since the start of the year, up to the date these consolidated financial statements are being issued, Russia's offensive efforts were still concentrated in Donbas, far from the Group's locations, while the Ukrainian army has been steadily laying the groundwork for a large-scale counter-offensive, planned to unroll over the course of the coming months. Neither the upcoming Ukrainian counter-offensive, nor Russian advances further in Donbas, are expected to directly affect the Group in the short-term.

Earlier in June, the Kakhovka Dam on the Dnipro River was destroyed, flooding the areas downstream and drying up several irrigation canals upstream. While the Group partly relied on water supplied from those canals, those supplies were not essential to the Group's operations. The Group switched to alternative sources of water and does not anticipate water shortages in the near future. None of the Group's locations are downstream from the Dam and hence were not affected by the flooding.

Management does not expect significant interruptions to its production cycle in the near future.

(ii) In December 2022, the Group negotiated new credit terms with TASCOMBANK which better reflect the Group's financing needs during wartime. The new terms are effective from the first quarter of 2023. Over the course of the year, the Group, therefore, plans to gradually repay its existing TASCOMBANK loans to receive new tranches, which would take advantage of these new terms.

Under the new terms, the established total credit limit for TASCOMBANK loans remains at UAH 450 million, interest rates for tranches in UAH are capped at 30% per annum and allow for partial compensation of the rate by state-funded programs, while interest rates for tranches in USD and EUR are fixed at 9% per annum.

Under the new terms, the bulk of the loan principal will be due in December 2025. While under the previous terms, a total of USD 9,568 thousand was already due by the end of 2023.

Information about operating segments for the six months ended 30 June 2022 is as follows:

	Pig Breeding	Crop Farming	Other	Total
Revenue, including:
- total sales of goods	5,095	1,682	251	7,028
- less: inter-segment sales of goods (i)	-	(1,664)	-	(1,664)

Cost of sales	(5,075)	(344)	(185)	(5,604)
Segment profit/(loss)	767	1,221	66	2,054

(i) To decrease its reliance on outside suppliers of feed components for wartime logistical reasons, in 2022 and 2023 the Group used more of its own grain for feed production instead of purchasing it, as compared to prior year. This also helped achieve a noticeable decrease in fodder costs for the pig business.

Seasonality of operations

Crop Farming segment, due to seasonality and implications of relevant reporting standards, in the first half of the year mainly reflects the sales of carried forward agricultural produce and effect of biological assets revaluation, while during the second half of the year it reflects sales of crops and effect of revaluation of agricultural produce harvested during the year. Also, crop farming has seasonal requirements for working capital increase during November-May, to finance land cultivation work. Other segments are not significantly exposed to seasonal fluctuations.
