FY2019 Full Year Results Presentation to 30 September 2019

Disclaimer & Basis of Preparation
This presentation is provided for information purposes only and has been prepared using information provided by the company. The information contained in this presentation is not intended to be relied upon as advice to investors and does not take into account the investment objectives, financial situation or needs of any particular investor. Investors should consider their own individual investment and financial circumstances in relation to any investment decision.
Certain statements contained in this presentation may constitute forward-looking statements or statements about future matters that are based upon information known and assumptions made as of the date of this presentation. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from any future results or performance expressed, predicted or implied by the statements contained in this presentation.
The Select Harvests Limited financial statements are prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Urgent Issues Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001. This includes application of AASB 141 Agriculture in accounting for the current year almond crop, which is classified as a biological asset. In applying this standard to determine the value of the current year crop, the Company makes various assumptions at the balance date as the selling price of the crop can only be estimated and the actual crop yield will not be known until it is completely processed and sold. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results, and have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Note*: All financial comparatives are based against the last 12 month audited financial period being the Financial Year ended 30 June 2018.

Secure access to diverse water sources:
-
River Water
-
− Aquifers
Positions the company to maximise harvest volume & reduce variance.
Building world class properties and a globally competitive low cost business.

Targeting an Above Average Yield Per Acre @ Maturity

0.0 0.0 0.45 0.92 1.16 1.28 |
| 7+ | 1.2 | 1.35 |
Note:
Biennial Nature of Crop
- The almond crop is biannual in nature with +/- 10% per annum variation in tonnage possible
Variation between Regions and Farms
- Yields are not uniform and vary across both farms and growing regions
Post Economic Maturity Yield
- The yield for post economic maturity farms deteriorates as tree age increases
Significant tonnage upside available with a higher yield per acre at maturity

Water Market Pricing
■ Water prices have decoupled from supply and demand fundamentals
-
The drought is having a major impact on water prices, but is not the only factor underpinning higher water prices
-
Influence of increased permanent cropping on demand and deliverability
-
Governments policies and intervention: buybacks, water efficiency grants, trade restrictions between zones (IVT) inter valley trading, inconsistent carry-over policies, and extraction licenses above sustainable resource availability
-
Environmental flow obligations and timing
-
Sophisticated financial investors in both entitlement and annual allocation markets
-
Global commodity prices remaining buoyant
Water Storage vs. Annual Allocation Prices
==> picture [467 x 198] intentionally omitted <==
. The drought is having a major impact, but is not the only factor underpinning higher prices Our water strategy protects us from the full impact of the recent price increase

The ownership of water has changed
■ The share of permanent entitlements owned by non-water users and the environment has increased significantly

Murray-Darling Basin water market inquiry
■ SHV will participate in the ACCC’s Murray-Darling Basin water markets inquiry
-
SHV supports the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) system. Clearly defined water property rights and tradable markets supported by robust price mechanisms have significantly improved water use efficiency and agricultural output across the MDB.
-
The water markets have evolved significantly since the MDB Plan was set up in 2012. The ACCC inquiry is a good opportunity to address the current issues impacting water markets, take advantage of new technology and re-align water markets to community expectations.
■ Our submission to the ACCC inquiry will highlight five key issues:
-
The growth and entry of non-irrigator sophisticated financial investors.
-
The lack of accurate, comprehensive and timely data on water market activity.
-
The need for transparent and robust market rules similar to ASX.
-
The requirement for water brokers to be regulated similar to ASX stock brokers.
-
Increase collaboration between Federal and State governments to harmonise environmental flows, carryover and inter valley trading.
