Following the trading update in February, Wingara is pleased to announce it has met guidance in each of its key financial benchmarks. The following activities have led to a significant improvement to the overall the financial position of Wingara across the key metrics of Revenue, EBITDA and Assets from FY18 to FY19.
-
Expansion of fodder accumulation and storage capacity: The successful accumulation of fodder during the 2019 season puts the Company is in good position to capitalise on strong demand over the next six months.
-
Demand for Austco Polar blast freezing and logistic services at a historically high level: Significant demand has led to the implementation of efficiency and capacity improvement programs completed in December 2018. These efficiencies lead to an improvement in underlying EBITDA from Austco Polar when compared to last year.
-
Increasing supply capability to meet demand: Phase 1 development of the Raywood facility is now complete. Wingara will have the ability to deliver throughput of up to 110,000 metric tonnes of fodder products per annum to meet increased demand when Phase 2 and 3 are fully completed and operational.
-
Export market penetration: Wingara has continued to increase its business profile, partnerships and contracts in Japan, South Korea, China and Taiwan.
“We have made considerable progress over the last year. The acquisition of Austco Polar to the Wingara platform means we have the distribution capability to supply both high quality protein and fodder to meet the increasing demand from Japan, South Korea, China and Taiwan. This is reflected in our financial result with Revenue and EBITDA multiplying for FY19. This provides the ideal platform for further improvements and growth in FY20.”
