Attachment to Appendix 4C

Summary of period 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018

Wingara Ag Ltd (ASX:WNR) is pleased to present the Company’s Appendix 4C for the 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018 quarter.

Quarter ended 31 March 2018 Review

  • Wingara unaudited operating EBITDA to exceed $1m for the 12 months ending 31 March 2018.

  • Construction is progressing well on the Raywood site and is ahead of the construction schedule. Wingara is still on track to achieve its production target of 70,000T by 31st March 2019.

  • Entered into agreement for the acquisition of Austco Polar Cold Storage business on 1 March 2018 which was subsequently settled on 16 April 2018. This transaction will further strengthen Wingara’s underlying cashflow, add a strategic export facility, enhance our product offering to the existing client base, and capture additional meat export revenue.

Monday, 30[th] April 2018

WNR’s unaudited management reports for the year ending 31 March 2018 is set to deliver an operating EBITDA in excess of $1m.

Total production achieved year-to-date 31 March 2018 was 33,000T and this is a 19% increase in export volume for the full year compared to the previous 12 months ending 31 March 2017.

Capital expenditure for the March 2018 quarter totalled $3.925m, of which $2.296m is directly related to the Raywood Hay Processing project. The project is progressing well with favourable weather events putting civil and construction works ahead of schedule. Inventory shed is complete whilst the processing shed is now being assembled. The processing machine is on target to be delivered in July 2018, and commissioning to be completed in the September quarter. Wingara is still on track to achieve its production target of 70,000T by 31[st] March 2019.

The Capital expenditure item also included $1.55M for deposit paid to the vendors of Austco Polar Cold Storage. In March, Wingara announced the acquisition of Austco Polar Cold Storage for $18.5 million. This acquisition provides a platform for Wingara to diversify its earnings base and provide an opportunity to expand its product range to its Asian customer base. This acquisition was successfully settled on 16 April 2018.

The Appendix 4C follows.
