FINANC NCIAL HI HIGH GHLIGH GHTS TS EBIT result for agribusiness of $45.8m - down on prior year’s record $53.7m but positive performance given Dairy and Aquafeed sector headwinds and no dry season for Supplements blocks. Poultry - sales volumes grew 111kt (10.6%) for the year to 1,155kt on the back of continuing population & white meat consumption growth, to reach 60% of total Ridley sales volumes for the first time. Aquafeed - solid performance on kingfish, barramundi and prawn volumes, despite outbreak of White Spot Disease in Logan River region. Cessation of Huon trading activity has impacted salmon volumes, the replacement of which is a longer term prospect. Ridley has affirmed its support to Tasmanian salmon industry growth through its commitment to a new feedmill in Tasmania. The Novacq TM novel prawn feed ingredient project is still in development phase with no profit and loss impact for the year. Dairy - a positive result given the depressed industry sentiment at the start of the year but well short of last year’s record sector earnings. The year finished positively, with the prospect of improved milk prices and rebuilding of dairy herds. Rendering - competition to secure red meat raw material has been intense due to the low level of abattoir throughput, thereby raising offal prices and squeezing margins. White meat and fish raw material volumes have been maintained to generate an overall slight earnings improvement across both Rendering sites. Packaged Products - continued upward trend in earnings arising from improvements in all aspects of customer value & service delivery. Supplements - highlighted separately this year due to the absence of a northern Australia dry season which decimated the demand for dry season supplementary blocks. Energy - significant increases in energy costs have been experienced across all sites and partially absorbed in FY17, with further rises predicted for the years ahead. 7
