corporations of the company and/or to any one (1) or more members of any such related or inter-related company or corporation related to any such company or corporation as outlined in section 2 of the Companies Act, for any purpose in the normal course of business of the company, on such terms and conditions as the board may deem fit. This resolution does not authorise financial assistance to a director or a prescribed officer or any company or person related to a director or prescribed officer.”

Reasons for and effect of special resolution number 1

The main purpose for this authority is to grant the board the authority to enable the company to provide financial assistance, when the need arises, to the potential recipients envisaged in the special resolution in accordance with the provisions of section 45 of the Companies Act. The company may not provide the financial assistance contemplated in section 45 of the Companies Act without a special resolution. The above resolution provides the board with the authority to allow the company to provide direct or indirect financial assistance, including but without limitation by way of the provision of warranties or the provision of indemnities or a loan, guaranteeing of a loan or other obligation or securing of a debt or other obligation, to the recipients contemplated in special resolution number 1.

It is difficult to foresee the exact details of the nature of financial assistance that the company may be required to provide over the next two (2) years. It is essential, however, that the company is able to organise effectively its internal financial administration. The general authority in

special resolution number 1 will allow the company to continue to grant financial assistance to the relevant parties in appropriate circumstances.

For these reasons and because it would be impracticable and difficult to obtain shareholder approval every time the company wishes to provide financial assistance as contemplated above, it is necessary to obtain the approval of shareholders, as set out in special resolution number 1. If approved, this general authority will expire at the end of two (2) years from the date on which this resolution is approved. It is, however, the intention to renew the authority annually at each AGM.

11. SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 2 – APPROVAL OF REMUNERATION PAYABLE TO NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS AND THE CHAIRMAN

To approve, by way of separate resolutions, the remuneration payable to non-executive directors and the chairman as outlined below:

  • 2.1 “RESOLVED THAT the remuneration payable to non-executive directors be increased to R452 500* per annum.”

2.2 “RESOLVED THAT the remuneration payable to the chairman of the board be increased to R2 161 000* per annum.”

  • These amounts are exclusive of VAT. For clarity, to the extent that VAT is applicable, the company is authorised to pay the VAT thereon in addition to the proposed remuneration.

The above remuneration under special resolutions 2.1 and 2.2 is to be effective from 1 March 2022 and to be paid in arrears. This is effectively a 4% (four percent) increase in fees.

The exception to this is the social, ethics and transformation committee member where a 6% (six percent) increase has been proposed to achieve better market alignment.

Reasons for and effect of special resolutions numbers 2 and 3

The reason for proposing special resolutions numbers 2 and 3 is to request approval for remuneration paid to non-executive directors, in respect of services rendered as directors in terms of section 66 of the Companies Act, so as to ensure that such remuneration remains market-related and accords with the level of responsibility being placed upon directors.

The proposed remuneration was accepted by the board after a recommendation by the remuneration committee, which considered the quantum of fees being paid to non-executive directors and to the chairman of similar-sized listed companies.

The remuneration committee, with input from management, benchmarked the fees

currently payable with those payable by similar-sized companies in order to determine market-related fees.

The chairman of the board does not receive any additional remuneration for participation in the subcommittees of the board.

13. SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 4 – APPROVAL OF REMUNERATION PAYABLE TO NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS IN RESPECT OF UNSCHEDULED/EXTRAORDINARY MEETINGS

“RESOLVED THAT non-executive directors be paid an amount of R23 906* per meeting in respect of special/extraordinary meetings of the board/board subcommittees”.

  • This amount is exclusive of VAT. For clarity, to the extent that VAT is applicable, the company is authorised to pay the VAT thereon in addition to the proposed remuneration.

The above remuneration is to be effective from 1 March 2022 and to be paid in arrears. Payment of fees for extraordinary meetings is at the discretion of the chairman of the board and chairman of remuneration committee.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING continued

Reasons for and effect of special resolution number 4

From time to time, directors may be called upon to attend unscheduled meetings as part of the fulfilment of their role as directors of the company. It is considered fair that directors should be compensated for the attendance of such meetings.

14. SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 5 – APPROVAL OF REMUNERATION PAYABLE TO NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS IN RESPECT OF AD HOC MEETINGS OF THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE

“RESOLVED THAT members of the investment committee be paid an amount of R4 754* per hour in respect of ad hoc meetings.”

  • This amount is exclusive of VAT. For clarity, to the extent that VAT is applicable, the company is authorised to pay the VAT thereon in addition to the proposed remuneration.

The above remuneration is to be effective from 1 March 2022 and to be paid in arrears. This is effectively a 4% (four percent) increase in fees.

Reasons for and effect of special resolution number 5

Meetings of the investment committee are held on an ad hoc basis. An hourly rate to determine the remuneration of members of this committee is deemed to be fair in the circumstances.

15. SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 6 – APPROVAL OF NON-RESIDENT DIRECTORS’ FEES

“RESOLVED THAT fees payable to directors who are non-resident of South Africa will continue to be 130% higher than the fees payable to directors who are resident in South Africa, as outlined in special resolutions number 2, 3, 4 and 5.”

This resolution is conditional upon special resolutions 2, 3, 4 and 5 being passed.

The proposed remuneration is effective 1 March 2022 and to be paid in arrears. This is effectively a 4% (four percent) increase in fees (see table below).

Gail Klintworth is a member of the social, ethics and transformation committee and Olivier Weber is a member of the risk and sustainability committee and investment committee.

Reasons for and effect of special resolution number 6

The proposed remuneration payable to non-resident, non-executive directors was determined after taking into account market benchmarking of fees being paid to non-resident, non-executive directors in similar-sized listed companies.

The remuneration committee has considered the proposed remuneration and the board has accepted the recommendations of the remuneration committee.

16. SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 7 – GENERAL AUTHORITY TO REPURCHASE SHARES IN THE COMPANY

“RESOLVED THAT the company and/or any subsidiary of the company are hereby authorised, by way of a general authority, from time to time, to acquire the company’s own ordinary shares upon such terms and conditions and in such amounts as the directors of the company and, in the case of an acquisition by a subsidiary(ies), the directors of the subsidiary(ies), may from time to time decide, but subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, the Listings Requirements and the MoI, and subject to the following conditions:

  • 16.1 That this authority shall be valid until the next AGM of the company, or for 15 (fifteen) months from the date of passing of this resolution, whichever period is shorter.

  • 16.2 That any repurchases of shares in terms of this authority be effected through the order

book operated by the JSE trading system and done without any prior understanding or arrangement between the company and the counterparty, such repurchases being effected by only one appointed agent of the company at any point in time.

  • 16.3 That the acquisitions in any one financial year shall be limited to 5% (five percent) of the issued share capital of the company at the date of this AGM, provided that any subsidiary(ies) may acquire shares to a maximum of 10% (ten percent) in the aggregate of the shares in the company.

  • 16.4 That any acquisition of shares, in terms of this authority, may not be made at a price greater than 5% (five percent) above the weighted average market value of the shares over the five (5) business days immediately preceding the date on which the acquisition is effected.

  • 16.5 The repurchase of shares may not be effected during a prohibited period, as defined in the Listings Requirements unless the company has a repurchase programme in place, where the dates and quantities of securities to be traded are fixed and details of the programme have been submitted to the JSE in writing. The company will instruct an independent third party, which makes its investment decisions in relation to the company’s securities independently of, and uninfluenced by, the company, prior to the commencement of the prohibited period to execute the repurchase programme submitted to the JSE.

  • 16.6 That an announcement on the Securities Exchange News Service (SENS) containing full details of such acquisitions of shares, will be published as soon as the company and/or its subsidiary(ies) has/have acquired shares constituting, on a cumulative basis, 3% (three percent) of the number of shares in issue at the date of the AGM at which this special resolution number 7 is considered and passed, and for each 3% (three percent) in aggregate of the aforesaid initial number, acquired thereafter.

Tiger Brands Limited Notice of annual general meeting 2021

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING continued

  • 16.7 After considering the effects of a maximum repurchase, the directors are of the opinion that:

  • 16.7.1 The company and the group will be able to pay its debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business for a period of 12 (twelve) months after the date of notice of the AGM.

  • 16.7.2 The consolidated assets of the company and its subsidiaries (the group) fairly stated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, will be in excess of its consolidated liabilities for a period of 12 (twelve) months after the date of notice of the AGM.

  • 16.7.3 The share capital and reserves of the company and the group will be adequate for ordinary business purposes for the period of 12 (twelve) months after the date of the notice of AGM.

  • 16.8 The board of directors has passed a resolution approving the repurchase and confirm that the company and its subsidiary(ies) have passed the solvency and liquidity test and that, since the test was performed, there have been no material changes to the financial position of the group.”

Reasons for and effect of special resolution number 7

The reason for and effect of this special resolution number 7 is to grant the directors a general authority in terms of the Companies Act and subject to the Listings Requirements for the acquisition by the company or one of its subsidiaries, of the company’s own shares on the terms set out above.

In terms of paragraph 5.72(c) of the Listings Requirements, a special resolution is required to approve a general repurchase by the company of its securities, which shall be valid only until the next AGM, but shall not be valid for a period greater than 15 (fifteen) months from the date of the passing of this resolution.

The directors are of the opinion that it would be in the best interests of the company to renew the current authority for the repurchase of shares of the company, by it or its subsidiaries, allowing the company or its subsidiaries to be in a position to repurchase the shares issued by the company, should the market conditions and price, as well as the financial position of the company, justify such action, as determined by the directors.

Repurchase of shares will only be made after careful consideration where the directors consider that such repurchase will be in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.

In terms of the Act, the board must make a determination to acquire its shares only if it reasonably appears that the company will satisfy the solvency and liquidity test immediately after completing the proposed acquisition and the board has acknowledged by resolution, that it has applied, and reasonably concluded that the company will satisfy, the solvency and liquidity test immediately after completing the proposed acquisition in accordance with the Act.

This general authority to acquire the company’s shares replaces the general authority granted at the AGM of the company held on 17 February 2021.

COMMENTARY

OVERVIEW

This year, Tiger Brands joins a select group of South African companies that have celebrated their centenary. The company has come a long way since starting out as a small family business in Newtown, Johannesburg, to become Africa’s largest listed manufacturer of fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), with trusted brands that form part of every South African’s shopping basket. Although the past few years have presented particularly high levels of volatility and uncertainty, with rapidly changing production and consumption patterns and increasing social, economic and environmental pressures, all of which have been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, our longevity reflects the company’s resilience, the inherent strength of our brands and the quality of our people.

Inspired by our strong history, our strategic priorities are aimed at improving the performance of our core portfolio while positioning the company for sustainable long-term growth.

Tiger Brands’ results for the year ended 30 September 2021 reflect steady progress against our strategic priorities with an improved underlying performance from the core business which was negated by the costs related to the product recall and the civil unrest that took place in July 2021. These costs amounted to R732 million (pre-tax).

The write-off of stock related to the civil unrest (R85 million), as well as the product recall (R308 million), has been accounted for through cost of sales. Customer refunds related to the product recall have been accounted for as a reduction in revenue, while other related costs have been accounted for through the relevant expense functions in the income statement.

In terms of the group’s underlying performance, the year under review can be characterised as a year of two halves, with a solid first half result, driven primarily by a strong first quarter, offset in part by slower top line growth in the second half. Despite revenue challenges, cost savings and efficiency initiatives were sustained, resulting in positive operating leverage for the full year.

Total revenue from continuing operations (excluding the product recall and civil unrest) increased by 5%, underpinned by price inflation of 7%, which was partially offset by an overall volume decrease of 2%. As a result of the costs related to the product recall and civil unrest, operating income from continuing operations declined to R2,2 billion from R2,5 billion the previous year. Gross margin and operating margin declined to 28,5% (2020: 30,1%) and 7,2% (2020: 8,3%), respectively. In addition, naked margins came under pressure due to the high level of agricultural commodity cost push not being fully recovered through selling price increases. However, this was offset by a steady improvement in manufacturing efficiencies, resulting in a marginal improvement of overall gross margins (excluding the product recall and civil unrest) to 30,3% from 30,1% in the prior year. Operating income (excluding the product recall and civil unrest) increased 20% to R3,0 billion.

The impairment charge in the current period of R154 million relates primarily to property, plant an equipment in the Deciduous Fruit business.

Net financing costs for the year amounted to R54 million (2020: R97 million), benefiting from lower interest rates and lower average debt levels, due primarily to improved debtor collections. A foreign exchange loss of R9 million was recorded due to the significant strengthening of the rand against other major currencies during the year under review. This negatively impacted the translation of foreign currency cash balances, relative to a net foreign exchange profit of R40 million reported last year.

Income from associates decreased by 2% to R346 million despite an improved performance from all three associate companies in local currency. National Foods’ reported outcome, which has been accounted for in line with IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies was adversely impacted on currency translation. As previously reported, Tiger Brands disposed of its 49% shareholding in UAC Foods effective 1 September 2021. The loss on the sale of UAC amounted to R11 million.

** Before impairments and non-operational items.

19

Tiger Brands Limited Notice of annual general meeting 2021

www.tigerbrands.com

COMMENTARY continued

The effective tax rate before impairments, non-operational items and income from associates, declined from 32,0% to 29,1%, largely due to an increased benefit in respect of special investment allowances claimed on qualifying capital projects in the current year as well as lower non-tax deductible expenditure.

Earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations increased by 21% to 1 070 cents (2020: 886 cents), while headline earnings per share (HEPS) from continuing operations declined by 6% to 1 127 cents (2020: 1 196 cents).

EPS from total operations increased by 87% to 1 142 cents (2020: 612 cents), and HEPS from total operations increased by 20% to 1 127 cents (2020: 940 cents).

The relatively higher rates of increase in EPS from total and continuing operations, compared to the year-on-year percentage changes in HEPS, are primarily due to the significant impairment charges of R603 million recorded in 2020, all of which relates to continuing operations. These impairment charges were excluded from the calculation of HEPS. The increase in HEPS from total operations is primarily due to the losses recorded in Value Added Meat Products (VAMP) in 2020 compared to a small profit in the year ended 30 September 2021. Consistent with the previous year, VAMP has been treated as a discontinued operation. The total after-tax profit for the year from discontinued operations amounted to R120 million (2020: R453 million loss). This primarily relates to the release of foreign currency translation reserves following the closure of Deli Foods as well as profit on the sale of trademarks, property, plant and equipment at Deli Foods and VAMP.

SEGMENTAL OPERATING PERFORMANCE

Domestic revenue in the second half was adversely impacted by volume declines across the Grains portfolio, Groceries and Snacks & Treats, compounded by lower overall price inflation relative to the first half. Despite the

muted second half growth, Domestic revenue for the year increased by 5% to R27,6 billion, resulting from price inflation of 8%, less the impact of overall volume declines of 3%. The effective containment of costs, together with an improvement in production efficiencies, resulted in positive operating leverage, with Domestic operating income** (excluding the product recall and civil unrest) increasing by 19% to R2,9 billion.

Grains

Revenue increased by 5% to R14,6 billion, reflecting price inflation of 10%, while overall volumes declined by 5%. Our ability to pass through some input cost inflation, combined with cost savings across the segment, resulted in operating income increasing by 11% to R1,4 billion and the operating margin expanding to 9,4% from 8,9% in the prior year.

After a strong start to the year, Milling and Baking experienced a challenging second half, driven predominantly by Bakeries and Sorghumbased products. Revenue from Milling and Baking increased by a muted 2%, driven by average price inflation of 8% which was mostly offset by an overall volume decline of 6%. Operating income declined by 9% to R1,0 billion.

Maize enjoyed a strong recovery in the second half. Despite a year-on-year volume decline, primarily due to increased in-home consumption last year, margins improved in the second half, resulting in a positive performance for the year. The wheat-to-bread value chain continued to experience margin compression because of adverse category dynamics, with deep discounting in the market remaining prevalent. Higher selling prices were more than offset by the impact of reduced volumes. In addition to higher than expected electricity and fuel costs, lost sales and increased expenses caused by the civil unrest in KwaZulu-Natal, further negatively impacted performance. Sorghum-based products experienced a particularly difficult year as a result of higher conversion and distribution costs, which was compounded by lower sales volumes as competition intensified.

** Before impairments and non-operational items.

20 Tiger Brands Limited Notice of annual general meeting 2021

COMMENTARY continued

Revenue in Other Grains increased by 13% to R4,5 billion, comprising price inflation of 15% and an overall volume decline of 2%. Despite the impact of the civil unrest on the Rice business, its timely return to normal operations helped to ensure that it sustained its strong first half performance. As a result, the Rice business delivered a strong year-on-year improvement, underpinned by higher selling prices and sound cost management. Following muted revenue growth in the first half, Pasta volumes benefited as consumer behaviour favoured the category. Improved demand coupled with strong in-store execution resulted in Fatti’s & Moni’s gaining market share. Although growth in its core oats offering was sustained in the second half due to a successful winter campaign, an adverse mix impacted Jungle’s overall second half performance. Nonetheless, Jungle achieved a pleasing full year performance.

Price increases coupled with improved efficiencies resulted in operating income in Other Grains increasing significantly to R353 million (2020: R114 million).

Excluding the impact of the product recall, Groceries’ sales were negatively impacted by a competitive trading environment, low seasonal demand in the first half and unusually quiet trade over Easter. Full year revenue was unchanged at R5,5 billion. This was underpinned by price inflation of 8%, offset by a similar percentage decline in total volumes. Consistent factory performance and expense management discipline resulted in operating income increasing 12% to R397 million despite experiencing significant increases in certain raw materials and packaging costs.

As previously reported, Tiger Brands’ claim under the contract with the third-party supplier, arising from the product recall, is in the process of being assessed. In October 2021, we issued formal correspondence to the third-party supplier setting out the scope of our claim. The supplier has since referred the claim to its insurers who have appointed a loss adjuster to assess the claim. The process is still at its early stages and we will continue to engage with the supplier to find a speedy resolution to the matter.

Consumer Brands

As was the case in the first half, the Baby category results were disclosed under the Consumer Brands segment. These results were previously reflected under Home, Personal Care and Baby. This change aligns external segmental disclosure with management reporting and has no financial impact on the group results. Prior year segmental numbers have been restated to reflect this change.

The Consumer Brands portfolio delivered overall revenue growth of 4%, comprising price inflation of 7% and a 3% reduction in total volumes. The flat revenue performance in Groceries was offset by year-on-year top line growth in Snacks & Treats, Beverages, Baby Care and Out of Home. Price inflation and significantly improved manufacturing efficiencies were the primary drivers for operating income increasing 20% to R1,1 billion.

Production volumes within Snacks & Treats were adversely impacted by Covid-19-related absenteeism as well as the civil unrest in the second half of the year. These factors resulted in supply chain complexities with regards to lost production as well as raw and packaging material shortages. In addition, adjusted lockdown measures implemented in July 2021 resulted in lower demand in respect of impulse purchases. This, as well as subdued shopper engagement relating to seasonal events such as Easter, led to slower revenue growth in the second half. Nonetheless, revenue for the year increased by 7% to R2,3 billion, underpinned by price inflation of 8% and an overall volume decline of 1%. Operating income increased strongly by 37% to R234 million, driven by higher realisations together with the impact of ongoing cost improvement initiatives.

21

Tiger Brands Limited Notice of annual general meeting 2021

www.tigerbrands.com

COMMENTARY continued

Supported by a strong second half performance from the ready-to-drink category as well as concentrates (Oros), year-on-year revenue in Beverages increased by 6% to R1,7 billion. Operating income increased by 9% to R261 million, benefiting from a favourable product mix as well as improved factory efficiencies and sound cost management.

Baby delivered a strong performance, driven by a recovery in volumes across most segments. Revenue increased by 12% to R1,1 billion with equal price and volume growth. Operating income increased by 29% to R143 million, benefiting from a favourable product mix, waste reduction and lower distribution costs.

Home and Personal Care (HPC)

Overall revenue in HPC increased by 6% to R2,0 billion, resulting from sustained category leadership in the pesticides category (within Home Care), offset by a disappointing performance in Personal Care reflective of the adverse consumer dynamics specific to this category.

The solid volume uplift in Home Care was underpinned by a strong summer campaign at the start of the year, which included the benefits of effective in-store execution and innovation. This performance was sustained in the second half with revenue for the year ending 11% up. Operating income increased by 20% when compared to the prior year, due to improved efficiencies, better material usage variances and tight overall cost control.

Although Personal Care enjoyed a recovery in operating income in the second half, it was not enough to offset the weak start to the year. Volatile category demand together with retailers prioritising essential categories during the civil unrest, resulted in a volume reduction of 6% for the year. Despite selling price inflation of 3%, the lower volumes resulted in revenue declining by 3% to R643 million. Operating income declined to R47 million from R79 million the previous year.

Exports and International

Total revenue for the Exports and International businesses increased by 7% to R3,6 billion. This was primarily attributable to a strong start to the year as trade resumed in Nigeria following resolution of the trademark dispute with a former distributor. The second half, however, proved challenging for Exports, the Deciduous Fruit business as well as our operation in Cameroon. Operating income for the year reduced by 7% to R96 million as a result of increased losses in Deciduous Fruit.

The second half performance of the Exports segment was negatively affected by low levels of demand, while border congestion impacted sales into Mozambique. Operating income of R71 million reflects the improved performance in the first half, which was partly offset by the impact of industrial action at the Davita facility (powdered soft drinks and seasoning) during the third quarter.

22

Tiger Brands Limited Notice of annual general meeting 2021

COMMENTARY continued

Revenue in the Deciduous Fruit business declined by 6% due to a challenging second half performance as demand in key export markets remained subdued. The business recorded an increased operating loss of R147 million primarily due to the relative strength of the rand and higher global shipping costs. A business optimisation review process is underway in respect of the Deciduous Fruit business, while we continue to pursue a potential disposal.

Chococam recorded an exceptional milestone this year with revenue exceeding R1,0 billion. This was driven primarily by strong volume growth across all segments, underpinned by successful innovation, optimal pricing and improved distribution to neighbouring countries. Operating income increased by 16% in rand terms to R172 million (10% increase in local currency). This was assisted by improved efficiencies and lower conversion costs.

Cash generated from operations increased by 34% to R4,0 billion. This included an overall improvement in working capital requirements despite the group’s conscious decision to increase inventory levels across the portfolio in anticipation of Covid-19-related supply chain disruptions. The group ended the year in a strong net cash position of R2,2 billion (2020: R1,8 billion). Total capital expenditure increased 8% to R1 billion, with replacement capex amounting to R762 million (2020: R659 million) and the balance relating to expansionary projects.

CHANGES IN DIRECTORATE

In February 2021, Mr Makhup Nyama retired from the board after 10 years of service, while Mr Ian Burton resigned from the board in June

2021, in turn stepping down as chairman of the investment committee. Ms Geraldine FraserMoleketi is appointed chairman of the investment committee with effect from 19 November 2021.

Having served on the board since August 2010, Ms Maya Makanjee will be stepping down as an independent non-executive director of the company with effect from 31 December 2021. Consequently, she will also step down as chairman of the social, ethics and transformation committee and member of the governance, nomination and remuneration committees. Ms Emma Mashilwane will be appointed chairman of the social, ethics and transformation committee, with effect from 2 January 2022.

Mr Mark Bowman will step down as an independent non-executive director with effect from the close of the annual general meeting on 16 February 2022. Consequently, he will also step down as chairman of the remuneration committee and member of the investment committee as well as the nomination and governance committees. Mr Donald Wilson will be appointed chairman of the remuneration committee with effect from 17 February 2022.

Advocate Mahlape Sello, SC, was appointed as a member of the audit committee with effect from 20 August 2021. Advocate Sello, SC, is currently an independent non-executive director of the company and chairman of the risk and sustainability committee.

Ms Deepa Sita, chief financial officer, will assume responsibility for Tiger Brands’ procurement function with effect from 1 December 2021. This is aligned with the development of a best-in-class supply chain model and Ms Sita’s extensive experience in this field.

COMMENTARY continued

CLASS ACTION UPDATE

As previously reported, the awaited subpoena appeal relating to the request by the company for various third parties to provide epidemiological information required for the Class Action lawsuit was finally heard by the Supreme Court of Appeal on 5 November 2021. Judgment is not expected to be handed down before the end of this calendar year. The parties continue to attend to pre-trial preparations, including discovery in terms of the Rules of the Court.

OUTLOOK

We acknowledge that the challenging economic climate and pressure on the consumer will remain. Against this backdrop, the company has made progress in strategically positioning itself for the future. Our strategy is supported by five key pillars namely:

  • › Meet the needs of the consumer

  • › Optimise the supply chain

  • › Be obsessed about cost savings and efficiencies

  • › Build a growth pipeline

  • › Ignite our people.

We have continued to accelerate our efforts towards consumer and shopper orientation and strengthened our focus on meeting consumers’ needs. Given the constrained consumer environment, our priority has been on delivering value for the consumer. We have made plans to roll out additional innovation in the value space, while several renovations are underway in the health and nutrition segment. We have launched the Black Cat brand as our third power brand, joining Jungle Energy and TV Bar to capitalise on the rising trend in snacking.

In line with our second and third strategic pillars, we have enhanced our supply chain and our cost-saving initiatives and efficiency programmes are expected to gain momentum, supported by increased technology investments.

In the medium to long term, the recent launch of the Tiger Brands Venture Capital Fund, which has led to the receipt of over 500 expressions of interest, will provide inorganic growth opportunities. We are in the final stages of making an offer for a business which is closely aligned to our health and nutrition strategy, while a further nine opportunities are being assessed. These initiatives, together with the reinvigorated and focused Africa growth strategy are expected to be supportive of top-line growth while driving our fourth strategic objective of building a growth pipeline.

Our fifth priority focus is on igniting our people and this forms the foundation of the company’s growth strategy. We have aligned internally on the desired culture for the company, as well as the underpinning values and winning behaviours. Our focus is now on accelerating strategy execution.

The strategic progress achieved this year, together with the non-recurrence of once-off items in 2021, are expected to result in an improved overall performance in the year ahead.

For Tiger Brands to flourish in the years ahead, it needs to realise the commercial opportunities associated with creating a more sustainable future. This is the underlying ethos of our sustainable future strategy as we recognise the responsibility to address our material environmental, social and governance (ESG) impact and continue to integrate this across the organisation.

Any forward-looking information has not been reviewed or reported on by the group’s auditors.

COMMENTARY continued

DECLARATION OF FINAL DIVIDEND

The board has declared a final ordinary dividend of 506 cents per share for the year ended 30 September 2021. This, together with the interim ordinary dividend of 320 cents per share, brings the total dividend for the year to 826 cents per share. In view of the company’s ungeared balance sheet and strong cashgenerating ability, it has been decided to determine this year’s total dividend on the company’s adjusted headline earnings. Consequently, HEPS was adjusted to exclude the impact of the product recall and the civil unrest, which took place in July this year. The company’s dividend policy of 1,75x cover has therefore been applied to HEPS after the aforementioned adjustments.

In accordance with paragraphs 11.17 (a) (i) to (x) and 11.17 (c) of the JSE Listings Requirements, the following additional information is disclosed:

  • › The ordinary final dividend has been declared out of income reserves

  • › The local dividends tax rate is 20% (twenty percent) effective 22 February 2017

  • › The gross final dividend amount of 506,00000 cents per ordinary share will be paid to shareholders who are exempt from the dividends tax

  • › The net final dividend amount of 404,80000 cents per ordinary share will be paid to shareholders who are liable for the dividends tax

  • › Tiger Brands has 189 818 926 ordinary shares in issue (which includes 10 326 758 treasury shares)

  • › Tiger Brands Limited’s income tax reference number is 9325/110/71/7.

Shareholders are advised of the following dates in respect of the final ordinary dividend:

Declaration date Friday, 19 November 2021
Last day to trade cum the ordinary dividend Tuesday, 11 January 2022
Shares commence trading ex the ordinary dividend Wednesday, 12 January 2022
Record date to determine those shareholders entitled Friday, 14 January 2022
to the ordinary dividend
Payment date in respect of the ordinary dividend Monday, 17 January 2022

Share certificates may not be dematerialised or re-materialised between Wednesday, 12 January 2022 and Friday, 14 January 2022, both days inclusive.

4 Following the closure of Deli Foods Nigeria Limited (Deli Foods) and the disposal of the UAC Foods Nigeria (UAC) associate investment, the foreign currency translation reserves have been released/charged to the income statement. This is in line with IAS 21, which requires the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate component of equity, to be reclassified from equity to profit or loss (as a reclassification adjustment) when the gain or loss on disposal of the foreign operation is recognised. The gain recognised in the income statement relating to Deli Foods amounted to R92,7 million and the loss relating to UAC amounted to R47,7 million.

NOTES

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGES TO THE GROUP’S ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of these results has been supervised by Deepa Sita, chief financial officer of Tiger Brands Limited.

The summarised consolidated preliminary financial statements are prepared in accordance with the requirements of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements for preliminary reports and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa. The Listings Requirements require preliminary financial statements to be prepared in accordance with the conceptual framework, the measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and also, as a minimum, to contain the information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting .

The directors take full responsibility for the preparation of the preliminary report and that the summarised consolidated financial statements have been correctly extracted from the underlying annual financial statements. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are consistent with those applied in the previous financial statements.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the summarised consolidated financial statements from which the summary financial statements were derived are in terms of International Financial Reporting Standards and are consistent with those accounting policies applied in the preparation of the previous consolidated financial statements. The majority of the group’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value in terms of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurements , are noted as level 1 hierarchy, which are valued based on quoted market prices.

Ernst & Young Inc., Tiger Brands Limited’s independent auditors, have audited the consolidated financial statements of Tiger Brands Limited from which the summarised consolidated financial results have been derived. The auditors have expressed an unmodified audit opinion on the consolidated annual financial statements. Any reference to future financial performance included in this announcement has not been audited or reported on by the group’s external auditors. The auditors’ audit report does not necessarily report on all the information contained in this announcement or financial results. Shareholders are therefore advised that in order to obtain a full understanding of the nature of the auditors’ engagement they should obtain a copy of the auditors’ audit report together with the accompanying financial information from the issuer’s registered office.

The Covid-19 pandemic has placed strain on global economies, has influenced customer trends and has influenced trading activities of the group. Many of Tiger Brands’ manufacturing and distribution sites were classified as essential services and continued to operate during the lockdown periods. To ensure the health and safety of our employees, a number of measures were implemented and continue to be in place. At period end, uncertainty remains on the longevity of the virus and its impact on future trading activities. This uncertainty has been considered in the key assumptions, estimates and judgements made by management when assessing provisions and impairment considerations.

2 IMPACT OF PRODUCT RECALL

During the second half of the 2021 financial year, a product recall was initiated on selected canned vegetable products within the Groceries business over safety concerns linked to defective cans. The defect was due to a deficient side-seam weld that could cause cans to leak. This defect was discovered in May 2021 and impacted products manufactured between 1 May 2019 and 5 May 2021. Approximately 64,6 million cans were identified as defective inventory that has been marked for destruction, of which 22,7 million cans were recalled from the trade.

For clarity, total impact of the product recall has been accounted for on the income statement as follows:

3 IMPACT OF CIVIL UNREST

The civil unrest in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) particularly impacted the Rice and Snacks & Treats businesses. This resulted in inventory write-offs of R85,2 million across the two businesses, which has been included in cost of sales. In addition to the inventory loss, there was physical damage and loss to property, plant and equipment. The unrest also resulted in lost sales across the business up to 31 August 2021. The group has adequate South African Special Risks Insurance Association (SASRIA) and general insurance cover for material damage to assets, inventory and business interruption. The total impact of the civil unrest has been accounted for on the income statement as follows:

5 IMPAIRMENTS

Goodwill and indefinite useful life intangible assets are tested for impairment annually (as at 30 September) and when circumstances that indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The group’s impairment tests for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are based on the value-in-use calculations. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash-generating units were disclosed in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2021. Property, plant and equipment in the Deciduous Fruit business (LAF) was fully impaired by R139,1 million (2020: R196,5 million). The downturn in LAF, which is predominantly an export sales business, continued from the previous reporting period which resulted in an impairment down to zero.

9 RESTATEMENT OF CUSTOMER REBATES

As part of the group’s continued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers compliance assessment it was noted that the company has historically presented certain rebate payable balances to customers as part of the trade and other payables balance as opposed to offsetting these against the trade and other receivables line as required by the accounting standard. This error has been corrected in the current year with rebate receivable balances of R416,8 million relating to the 2020 financial year and R398,5 million relating to the 2019 financial year being reclassified from the trade and other payables line to the trade and other receivables line. This affects the statement of financial position and statement of cash flow lines as follows:

10 RESTATEMENT OF OPERATING INCOME BEFORE IMPAIRMENT AND NON-OPERATIONAL ITEMS

As part of the JSE’s proactive monitoring of financial statements review, and the group’s continued IFRS compliance assessment it is noted that the group has historically presented abnormal items on the income statement. As previously defined in the group’s accounting policies, abnormal items included items of income and expenditure which are not directly attributable to normal operations or where their size or nature are such that additional disclosure is considered appropriate. Management has re-evaluated what is included as abnormal items based on the size, growth and evolving complexity of the group, and subsequently re-labelled this function to non-operational items which is detailed in the accounting policies of the group’s annual financial statements. As a result of this, it was deemed appropriate to restate the comparatives as it would be incorrect to classify certain costs as non-operational under the new function name.

The below costs are not deemed non-operational in nature and thus reclassified into other operating expenses:


operating expenses:
(R’million) 2020
Restructuring and related costs 68,2
Davita legal settlement 66,6
Early settlement of lease liability (10,7)
124,1

The cash operating profit for the prior year has been restated for the non-cash movement of the above.

A new subtotal referred to as operating income after impairments has been introduced.

11 NATIONAL FOODS HOLDINGS LIMITED

As disclosed in the 30 September 2021 financial statements, the equity-accounted results of National Foods Holdings Limited (NFH) included in these results have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies (IAS 29), with key accounting principles and judgements applied by the group. The results and net asset value of NFH have been translated into the group’s presentation currency at the closing exchange rate, in accordance with hyperinflationary provisions of IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates .
