Overview:
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The improved profit over the equivalent period last year has been due to satisfactory returns from our tea operations together with significantly reduced finance costs and a weaker Kenya Shilling. The early Avocado Fuerte seasons results were adversely affected by both volume and logistics.
The prospects for the Hass Avocado season are not as yet quantifiable and Tea prices have come down from last years levels.
In view of the above uncertainties and the need to maintain a positive cash balance for further development investment, the Directors do not recommend the payment of an Interim Dividend.
