Summary
The Board of Directors and Management of FirstFarms A/S have today reviewed and adopted the unaudited interim financial accounts for the period 1 January – 30 September 2019.
FirstFarms increases turnover and result significantly based on growth in the pig production
FirstFarms has in the accounting period realised a turnover of DKK 204.0 million compared to DKK 168.4 in the same period in 2018, an EBITDA of DKK 70.0 million and an EBIT of DKK 32.5 million. EBITDA and EBIT are improved with DKK 27.2 million and DKK 11.4 million, respectively compared to the same period last year.
- The price on piglets and slaughter pigs has been below budget in Q1, 2019 but significantly above in Q2 and Q3, 2019. Together with increased efficiency in production, this has contributed to a satisfactory result for the first 9 months of 2019. Satisfactory pig prices are still expected for the rest of 2019.
- The harvest yields have been marginal below budget, due to a very dry year; especially in Romania.
- The milk price has been lower than budget. A milk price is expected on the current level for rest of the year. The milk production has been on par with the budgeted.
- The take-over of Hospoda Invest A/S, according to company announcement no. 10/2019, is included in the figures from 17 July 2019 and onwards. The company owns and operates 1,500 hectares and has 2,300 sows with production of piglets and slaughter pigs.
- FirstFarms maintains the upward adjusted expectations, as published in company announcement no. 13 of 20 October 2019, of an EBITDA of DKK 90-95 million and an EBIT of DKK 43-48 million. In 2018, there is realised an EBITDA of DKK 57 million and an EBIT of DKK 26 million.
Anders H. Nørgaard from FirstFarms A/S says: "It is going well in FirstFarms. Our purchase of companies the last 3 years has generated the expected growth. We now see the effect of our ambitious and sustainable growth strategy, and we expect a solid result for 2019."

FirstFarms
Management report for the period 1 January – 30 September 2019
FirstFarms has in the accounting period realised a turnover of DKK 204.0 million compared to DKK 168.4 in the same period in 2018, an EBITDA of DKK 70.0 million and an EBIT of DKK 32.5 million. EBITDA and EBIT are improved with DKK 27.2 million and DKK 11.4 million, respectively compared to the same period last year.
In the first 9 months, the equity is increased with DKK 9.0 million, in consequence of a result of DKK 15.8 million and an exchange rate adjustment of DKK -3.5 million and payment of dividend of DKK 3.3 million.
The price on piglets and slaughter pigs has been below budget in Q1, 2019 but significantly above in Q2 and Q3, 2019. Together with increased efficiency in production, this has contributed to a satisfactory result for the first 9 months of 2019. Satisfactory pig prices are still expected for the rest of 2019.
The harvest yields have been marginal below budget, due to a very dry year; especially in Romania.
The milk price has been lower than budget. A milk price is expected on the current level for rest of the year. The milk production has been on par with the budgeted.
The take-over of Hospoda Invest A/S, according to company announcement no. 10/2019, is included in the figures from 17 July 2019 and onwards. The company owns and operates 1,500 hectares and has 2,300 sows with production of piglets and slaughter pigs.
Risk assessment
FirstFarms has in the annual report for 2018 described the most essential risks for the company, and it is the management's opinion that this description is still adequate. The annual report and the risk assessment can be found on the company's website www.firstfarms.com.
Accounting policies
The interim financial report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Presentation of interim financial reports" as adopted by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies.
Accounting policies are, except for the below mentioned, unchanged compared to the consolidated financial statement and annual report for 2018, to which is referred.
FirstFarms A/S has implemented the standards and interpretations, which become effective for 2019. IFRS 16 has had a significant impact for the interim financial report for 2019. The new regulation entails, that values of rent contracts and operational leasing shall be recognised.
A leasing asset and a leasing liability is recognised in the balance sheet, when the Group according to an entered leasing contract, regarding a specific identified asset, gets the leasing assets available in a leasing period, and when the Group obtains right to almost all the economic advantages from use of the identified asset and the right to decide on the use of the identified asset.
The leasing asset is at initial recognition measured at cost price, which corresponds to the value of the leasing liability.
Subsequently, the asset is measured at cost price deducted accumulated depreciations. The leasing asset is depreciated over the shortest of the leasing period and the leasing life. The depreciations are recognised on a straight-line basis in the income statement.

FirstFarms
At initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at the present value of the future lease payments discounted by an alternative loan rate. The following lease payments are recognised as part of the lease liability:
- Fixed payments
- Payments covered by an extension option, which the Group most likely expects to utilise
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost price under the effective interest method. The lease liability is recalculated, if the Group changes its assessment of whether an extension or termination option is reasonably expected to be utilised.
The Group presents the leasing asset under the respective types of assets and the lease liability under debt to credit institutions.
Significant accounting estimates, assumptions and assessments
The lease period
The lease period contains the leasing contract's non-terminable period, periods covered by an extension option, which the Group reasonably expects to utilise, and period covered by a termination option, which the Group reasonably expects not to exercise.
A large part of the Group's land contracts in Slovakia can be terminated by both FirstFarms and the lessor once a year. It is the company's assessment, that due to the special circumstances that arise from the landlords' perspective, there are significant financial barriers to terminate the agreements. Based on the company's experience, that a significant part of the leases is prolonged, the management has assessed, that a lease period of 5 years for these lease contracts is more likely.
FirstFarms has chosen the simple model of recognition.
The consequence for assets and liabilities and the income statement are shown in the table below:
| DKK 1,000 | 01.01.2019 | 30.06.2019 |
|---|---|---|
| Land | 27,536 | 21,963 |

| Short term debt to credit institutions | 11,341 | 11,098 |
