C O R P O R AT E P R O F I L E
We are a leading agri-food company that produces
multiple protein foods, with operations in five highgrowth emerging Asian markets. We have, over 40 years,
developed core competencies across the agri-food value
chain, including animal feed production, animal breeding,
livestock fattening and consumer food.
We are a market leader across multiple classes of
protein foods, with an emphasis on milk, poultry and
beef, complemented by growing businesses in swine
and aquaculture. In Indonesia, we are one of the two
largest producers of poultry, and we have replicated our
industrialized, vertically integrated business model for
poultry production in Vietnam, India and Myanmar. In China,
we successfully replicated our Indonesian dairy business
and are, today, one of a small group of leading producers
of premium milk that is of the highest quality available in
the market and that commands premium prices in China.
Given the growing affluence of the populations in our
target middle- and lower-income consumer groups, we
expect protein food consumption in these markets to

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this Prospectus constitute forward-looking statements. All statements
other than statements of historical fact included in this Prospectus, including those regarding
our financial position and results, business strategies, plans and objectives of management
for future operations (including development plans and dividends), are forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding our present and
future business strategies and the environment in which we will operate in the future.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking
statements included in this Prospectus reflect our current views with respect to future events
and are not a guarantee of future performance. A number of important factors could cause
actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statement. These include, but are not limited to:
changes in the anticipated demand and selling prices for our products;
changes in political, economic and social conditions and the regulatory environment in
the countries in which we conduct business, particularly in Indonesia and China;
our financial condition, business strategy, budgets and projected financial and operating
data;
v
Additional factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ
materially include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Risk Factors, Dividends,
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,
Business and Appendix FIndependent Market Research on Selected Food Markets in
Indonesia, China, India, Vietnam and Myanmar. These forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date of this Prospectus. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in
the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of
activity, performance or achievements. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking
statements after the date of this Prospectus to conform those statements to actual results,
subject to compliance with all applicable laws including the Securities and Futures Act and/or
rules of the SGX-ST.
ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are a limited liability company incorporated in Singapore. Most of our directors and
executive officers reside in Singapore. Substantially all of our assets are located in Indonesia,
China and Vietnam and substantially all of the assets of our Indonesian-citizen directors and
executive officers are located in Indonesia. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect
service of process upon us or such persons in relation to court proceedings outside
Singapore, Indonesia, China or Vietnam or to enforce against us any court judgments
obtained in such court proceedings.
PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND STATISTICAL INFORMATION
This Prospectus contains our audited combined financial statements as of and for the years
ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and our unaudited interim combined financial
statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2014. Our audited
combined financial statements and unaudited interim combined financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (FRS). FRS
differs in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in certain other
countries, including the United States.
Certain numerical figures set out in this Prospectus, including financial data presented in
millions or thousands and percentages, have been subjected to rounding adjustments, and,
as a result, the totals of the data in this Prospectus may vary slightly from the actual
arithmetic totals of such information. Percentages and amounts reflecting changes over time
periods relating to financial and other data set forth in Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations have been calculated using the
numerical data in our combined financial statements or the tabular presentation of other data
(subject to rounding) contained in this Prospectus, as applicable, and not using the numerical
data in the narrative description thereof.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We define EBITDA as profit before tax from continuing operations for the year/period before
interest, fair value changes in biological assets, foreign exchange adjustments, changes in
fair value of marketable securities, and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). EBITDA
and profit from continuing operations excluding increases in fair value of biological assets, net
of tax presented in this Prospectus are supplemental measures of our performance and
liquidity that are not required by or presented in accordance with FRS. EBITDA and profit
vi
from continuing operations excluding increases in fair value of biological assets, net of tax are
not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under FRS and should not be
considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance
measures derived in accordance with FRS or as an alternative to cash flow from operating
activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, EBITDA and profit from continuing operations
excluding increases in fair value of biological assets, net of tax are not standardized terms,
hence a direct comparison between companies using such terms may not be possible.
We believe that EBITDA facilitates comparisons of operating performance from period to
period and company to company by eliminating potential differences caused by variations in
capital structures (affecting interest expense and finance charges), tax positions (such as the
impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses), the
age and accumulated depreciation and amortization of assets (affecting relative depreciation
and amortization of expense), variations in fair value of biological assets, and foreign
exchange gains or losses. EBITDA has been presented because we believe that it is
frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating
similar companies, many of whom present such non-GAAP financial measures when
reporting their results. Nevertheless, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you
should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for analysis of, our financial
condition or results of operations, as reported under FRS. Because of these limitations,
EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in
the growth of our business.
We believe that the inclusion of profit from continuing operations excluding increases in fair
value of biological assets, net of tax as profit is useful to investors because it provides a
means of evaluating our Groups operating performance and results from period to period on
a comparable basis not otherwise apparent when the impact of the changes in fair value of
biological assets under FRS 41 is included. Profit from continuing operations excluding
increases in fair value of biological assets, net of tax is not a standard measure under FRS
and has limitations as an analytical tool, and it should not be considered in isolation from, or
as a substitute for analysis of, our financial condition or results of operations, as reported
under FRS.

SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and may not
contain all of the information that may be important to you, or that you should consider before
deciding to invest in the Offering Shares. You should read this entire Prospectus, including,
among other sections, our financial statements and related notes and the section entitled

OVERVIEW
We are a leading agri-food company that produces multiple protein foods, with operations in
five high-growth emerging Asian markets. We have, over 40 years, developed core
competencies across the agri-food value chain, including animal feed production, animal
breeding, livestock fattening and consumer food.
We are a market leader across multiple classes of protein foods, with an emphasis on milk,
poultry and beef, complemented by growing businesses in swine and aquaculture. In
Indonesia, we are one of the two largest producers of poultry, with over 40 years of
experience, and we currently produce approximately 1.5 million day-old chicks (DOCs) per
day. We have replicated our industrialized, vertically integrated business model for poultry
production in Vietnam, India and Myanmar. In China, we successfully replicated our
Indonesian dairy business and are, today, one of a small group of leading producers of
premium milk that is of the highest quality available in the market and that commands
premium prices in China. Given the growing affluence of the populations in our target middleand lower- income consumer groups, we expect protein food consumption in these markets to
rise. We intend to capitalize on this trend by increasing our production capabilities for
premium milk and animal proteins across our markets.
We have an industrialized approach to farming and food production. This allows us to
consistently produce high-quality proteins and to replicate our business model as we expand
our existing protein operations in and across our existing markets. In addition, the vertical
integration of our animal protein business from animal feed production to breeding and
commercial farming to slaughtering and food processing creates more opportunities to
capture value at different points in the value chain. It also provides us with greater food
security and traceability, which is important as we grow our downstream consumer food
brands.
We leverage the high quality of our raw materials to produce premium and mass market
consumer branded food products under leading brands such as So Good and Greenfields.
We have three operating segments: dairy, animal protein and consumer food. The following
table shows our business activities within each segment, the geographic locations where we
operate and the percentage of Group revenue and profit after tax contributed by each
segment for the year ended December 31, 2013.

CAGR for EBITDA of 21.6%. For the calculation of EBITDA, see Summary Combined
Financial Information and Other Information.
Dairy
We produce premium raw milk in China and Indonesia that rates at the top of each market in
terms of both quality and price. In China, we focus on producing premium raw milk that we
sell to leading dairies in China at premium prices. There is a substantial shortfall in the supply
of premium milk in China, as highlighted by several food safety scandals in recent years, and
we believe that we are well positioned to benefit from this shortfall and from the expected
growth in dairy consumption in that market. In Indonesia, we use all of our premium raw milk
in our downstream consumer dairy businesses to produce premium dairy products, in
particular premium fresh milk, marketed under our Greenfields brand to consumers in
Indonesia and other countries in Asia.
We operate a five-farm hub of dairy farms in China, with four of the farms in the operational
stage. We expect construction of the fifth farm to be completed by the end of 2014, with milk
production commencing in early 2015. We build our dairy farms pursuant to an industrialized
model of approximately 10,000 to 12,000 heads of cattle per farm. Each dairy farm is
standardized and replicable across locations and jurisdictions. In total, we invested
approximately US$300 million to build our first five-farm hub in Shandong. Our farms are part
of a small number of very large-scale farms in the PRC. According to the Industry Consultant,
as of 2013, large-scale farms (farms housing more than 1,000 heads of cattle) comprise
15.1% of the cattle population in the PRC. We sell our premium raw milk to some of the
leading dairy companies in China for their use in the production of premium fresh milk and
other dairy products. Our farms in China are located in Shandong province, and as of
December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had approximately 40,700 and 41,800 heads of
dairy cattle in China, with approximately 14,500 and 16,700 milking cows, respectively. We
produced over 130,000 tons of milk in China in 2013, and our average milk yield per milking
cow for 2013 was 11.5 tons per annum. Our premium raw milk in China is consistently at the
top of the market in terms of quality, consistently exceeding Chinese and international
standards for nutrition and safety. The quality of our raw milk is also reflected in its selling
price. In 2013, the average selling price of our milk was RMB 4.51 per kilogram, which was
approximately 25% higher than the average price of milk from ten major milk production
regions in China, according to the China Ministry of Agriculture1. In the first three months of
2014, the average price of our milk reached RMB 5.25 per kilogram. See BusinessOur
Dairy SegmentIntroduction.
We intend to expand our China dairy business and grow the number of our dairy farms in
China, commencing with the construction of another five-farm hub in Inner Mongolia. We
have entered into a framework agreement with the Chifeng City Government of Inner
Mongolia for the construction of this new five-farm hub, and we intend to begin construction
on the first additional farm before the end of 2014 and to complete the second five-farm hub
in 2018, which would bring our total herd size in China to approximately 120,000 heads of
cattle. On July 12, 2014, we entered into conditional lease agreements with local township
governments in Chifeng City for the construction of farms at two sites in Chifeng.
In Indonesia we operate a vertically integrated dairy business. We operate an industrialized
dairy farm to produce premium raw milk that we use for the production of our own
downstream dairy products, including fresh milk, UHT milk and premium cheeses. We market
and sell our downstream products under our own brands directly to customers in the retail
market, including to major food and beverage companies such as Starbucks. Our farm in
Indonesia is located in Malang, East Java, at an altitude that is conducive to raising highquality dairy cows, and as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had approximately
5,800 and 5,700 heads of cattle in Indonesia with approximately 3,000 and 2,900 milking
cows. We produced over 26,000 tons of raw milk in Indonesia in 2013, and our average milk
yield per milking cow for 2013 was 9.1 tons per annum. As in China, our raw milk in Indonesia
is of premium quality, which is reflected in its nutritional and safety standards, as well as in
the premium quality of and premium pricing for our downstream dairy products and the
leading market position of our Greenfields brand. We also export a portion of our downstream
dairy products to our key strategic customers, such as Starbucks and Cold Storage, in other
markets in Asia, including Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines. The success of our
vertically integrated Indonesian dairy operations is driving our strategy to increase our
upstream production capacity, and we have purchased land for a second dairy farm in Blitar,
East Java, which we expect to be fully operational by the end of 2016.
As of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had a total of approximately 46,400 and
47,500 heads of dairy cattle respectively, with approximately 17,500 and 19,500 milking cows
respectively, across our farms in China and Indonesia, compared to approximately 18,300
heads of cattle, with approximately 6,400 milking cows as of December 31, 2011.

Animal Protein
We produce multiple high-quality animal proteins (poultry, swine, beef and aquaculture), as
well as high-quality animal feed, across our target markets. Our animal protein operations are
vertically integrated and cover the entire value chain of animal protein production, from animal
feed to breeding and commercial farming to slaughtering and processing livestock and
supplying the raw materials for our downstream consumer food segment (see Business
Our Consumer Food Segment). We are one of the two largest poultry and poultry feed

Animal Feed
Commercial Farming:
poultry: grow out
cattle: feedlotting
swine: fattening
Slaughterhouse
Consumer Food
In our poultry business, we operate over 70 breeding farms and over 30 hatcheries to
produce DOCs, primarily in Indonesia, as well as in Vietnam, Myanmar and India. In 2013, we
sold almost 600 million DOCs across our markets. In 2013, we sold approximately 7% of our
DOCs produced in Indonesia internally to our own commercial farms for growing out, with the
remainder sold to contract farms or third parties. We have over 10,000 commercial farms in
our network, most of which are contract farms that are owned and operated by local farmers
who grow out the chicks on our behalf. We source most of our grandparent stock for chicken
from Aviagen, one of the worlds leading poultry genetics companies, and our industrialized
approach results in premium quality DOCs and feed conversion ratios that are among the
highest in the industry in Indonesia.
In our beef business, we are one of the largest beef cattle feedlot operators in Indonesia and
the largest importer of live beef cattle into Indonesia. We breed, fatten and process beef cattle
and have four feedlots in Indonesia with a total production capacity of 165,000 heads of cattle
per year. We also have cattle breeding operations in Australia, where our stations can hold
approximately 45,000 heads of cattle at any one time. We import the cattle bred at our
stations in Australia to Indonesia for fattening and processing, and we ship approximately
12,000 heads of cattle per year from our Australian operations to our feedlots in Indonesia.
Our beef business is operated as a fully integrated business, whereby breeding, feed,
fattening and slaughterhouse operations are carried out within our Group and are therefore
under unified control and operation.
In addition, we have swine breeding and distribution operations in Vietnam, where we sold
approximately 72,700 piglets in 2013. In 2012, we entered into a joint venture with Hypor, one
of the worlds leading suppliers of swine genetics, which enables us to operate the entire
chain of swine breeding farms, including nurseries and parent, grandparent and great
grandparent farms. In addition, we also produce small amounts of fish and shrimp in
Indonesia.
We produce premium-quality animal feed in Indonesia, Vietnam and Myanmar, both for our
own poultry, swine and aquaculture operations, as well as for sale to third parties. We sold
over 3.5 million tons of animal feed in 2013 across our markets, including both internal and
external sales. We formulate the feed to maximize its nutritional value depending on its end
use and brand it accordingly, and our feed brands are among the most recognized in
Indonesia.
Consumer Food
We use the high-quality milk and animal protein products that we produce in-house as raw
materials for our downstream consumer food segment. As a result, we are able to trace the
quality of the ingredients in our consumer food products all the way through the production
chain, which provides us with a high degree of confidence in the quality and reliability of our
consumer food products.
We make ambient-temperature and chilled/frozen meat products from chicken, beef and
seafood for the Indonesian market. Our So Good and Sozzis brands are leading brands in
Indonesia for premium processed meats, while our Real Good and So Nice brands focus on
the mass market convenience pack segment for UHT milk and meat, respectively. Due to the
high value-add element of our consumer food products and the changing consumer
preferences in our markets, we believe that our consumer food segment has significant
potential for future growth.
OUR STRENGTHS
We believe that we have the following competitive strengths:
Our industrialized approach to agri-food production and our vertical integration drive
our leadership positions and growth strategies.
Our agri-food production involves (i) large-scale standardization of our operations to create
efficiencies and facilitate replication, (ii) use of superior breeds, and (iii) a sophisticated
approach to animal husbandry, animal health and nutrition, including a strong focus on biosecurity. This approach provides us with a number of key strategic and financial advantages
compared to traditional farming, including the following:
economies of scale and cost savings that allow us to produce quality products at lower
costs, thereby driving our competitiveness and profitability. Economies of scale also
allow us to provide better animal health and nutrition, while mitigating risks of disease
outbreak through better biosecurity;
consistently high-quality animal protein products that are trusted by our customers who
are willing to pay premium pricing for quality and product traceability; and
advantages when we expand our business within existing markets or into new markets.
Our experience replicating our industrialized approach provides a cost-effective model
6
for continued growth. We have executed this strategy in connection with our entry into
the poultry market in Vietnam, India and Myanmar and into the dairy market in China.
In addition, the vertical integration of our animal protein business from animal feed production
to breeding to food processing, provides us with a number of significant competitive
advantages, including the following:
more opportunities to capture value at different points on the value chain and to continue
to diversify our business, enabling us to realize favorable profit margins compared to
less integrated farming operations;
controlling the entire protein food value chain provides us with greater food security and
traceability. This is becoming increasingly important in Asia and is a key driver for
premium pricing in our protein businesses and consumer food segment as consumers
become more aware of health and safety concerns involving food; and
as we consider new market opportunities across our five target markets for our five classes
of proteins, we have a better understanding of the risks and opportunities involved at each
stage of the value chain and are better able to target our entry point into the new market
opportunity accordingly.
We operate our business in multiple protein segments with leading market positions
We are a market leader across multiple classes of proteins, with an emphasis on poultry, milk
and beef, complemented by growing businesses in swine and aquaculture. We focus on
developing operational and technical expertise across each of our protein segments (which
form the bulk of animal protein consumption in Asia) to create leading market positions and
then replicate our successes as we expand our five classes of proteins in and across our five
target markets. For example, we are one of the two largest producers of poultry in Indonesia,
with over 40 years of experience, and are successfully replicating our Indonesian poultry
business model in Vietnam, Myanmar and India. We are also replicating the success of our
Indonesian dairy business in China, where we have increased our herd size by more than
three times, from 12,774 heads of cattle in 2011 to 40,691 heads of cattle in 2013.
We currently focus on the following protein segments where we believe there are significant
opportunities to strengthen our market positions:
Poultry
We have over 40 years of experience in poultry production and have developed a fully
integrated and industrialized business model across the entire value chain of poultry
production, from the manufacture of poultry feed, to breeding and commercial farming, to
the processing of chicken meat and the marketing of branded processed foods. This
business model provides us with a number of strategic and financial benefits that have
contributed to our market positions. In 2013, we had market shares in Indonesia of
25.1% by production capacity of DOCs and 21.9% by volume of poultry feed (excluding
aqua feed), which was the second-largest market share in Indonesia, with the nextlargest poultry feed producer holding a market share of 5.5%. We drew on our extensive
experience in the Indonesian poultry industry as we expanded in Vietnam, where we had
a 22% market share in 2013 by number of broilers produced. Similarly, we have also
been able to develop leading market positions for poultry in Myanmar and are developing
our poultry operations in India.
Dairy
We are one of a small group of leading, industrialized producers of premium raw milk in
Indonesia and China that is of the highest quality in terms of nutritional and safety
standards. In Indonesia, we use all of our premium raw milk in our downstream
consumer dairy businesses to produce fresh milk and premium cheeses marketed under
our Greenfields brand. According to the Industry Consultant, in 2013, our Greenfields
brand was the market leader for premium fresh milk in Indonesia, with an estimated
market share of 38.4% by value. In China, we currently focus exclusively on producing
premium raw milk that we sell at premium prices to leading dairies in China. In 2013, the
average price of our milk was RMB 4.51 per kilogram, approximately 25% higher than
the average market price of milk across ten key production regions in China.
In China, there is a structural supply shortage of raw milk that the Industry Consultant
expects to continue through 2018. The demand for raw milk increased at a compounded
average growth rate of 4.8% from 2008 to 2013 and, according to the Industry
8
Consultant, the current demand growth is outpacing the growth in production. Over the
same period, Chinas raw milk supply increased from 35.6 million tons in 2008 to
37.4 million tons in 2012 but declined by 5.7% (compared to 2012) to 35.3 million tons in
2013, as a result of extended dry conditions, contagious diseases amongst cows and the
exit of some small-scale dairy farms.
Swine
Swine remains the largest protein segment in a number of Asian emerging economies,
including China and Vietnam, which presents significant opportunities for industrialized
farmers in these markets. In Vietnam, we are replicating our industrialized approach to
farming in order to create a market-leading position for swine.
Beef
We believe there are attractive opportunities in Asian markets for beef products, as beef
consumption increases with rising levels of wealth. In particular, the Indonesian market
could be a strong growth area for our Group, as there is ample supply of quality feed in
that market. In China, we also intend to draw upon synergies with the expansion of our
dairy business in order to grow our beef operations in that market.
We have established a leading premium dairy business in China and Indonesia, which
is poised for substantial growth.
We have established premium dairy businesses in both China and Indonesia that, we believe,
place us at the top of the dairy market in both of these high-growth countries and position us
for sustainable and profitable growth. In China, we sell our premium raw milk to processors in
the rapidly developing premium dairy market. In Indonesia, we have the largest dairy farm
operation by volume of premium fresh milk produced, and we use our raw milk to produce
premium fresh milk and other premium downstream dairy products that we sell directly to
consumers. We believe that our success in producing high-quality milk, generating high yields
from our milking cows and receiving premium prices for our milk and milk products is due to a
number of factors, including the following:
Scale and design of farms: we have expertise in building and operating large-scale
industrialized dairy farms, with a standardized ten- to twelve-thousand-head farm design
that maximizes operational efficiency and quality. These farms are supported by
government policies to encourage large-scale farming in both China and Indonesia. In
China, incentives include (a) tax exemptions and rebates on value-added tax and
corporate income tax, (b) providing infrastructure support, including water and power,
and (c) granting long-term land leases at rates below market rate. In Indonesia,
incentives include value-added tax exemptions and import duty exemptions on the
import of certain capital goods. The quality of raw milk supplied from our farms is
significantly higher than the overall quality of raw milk supplied in each of these
countries, as the significant majority of raw milk is sourced from small-holder farms;
High-yielding livestock: we select the most suitable semen from our suppliers to optimize
the genetic mix of our cows and breed the highest-yielding cows. In addition, we use
sex-controlled semen in order to increase the birth rate of female cows on our farms.
9
Location of farms: in China, our first five-farm hub is located in Shandong province,
which has cool and dry weather and an abundance of fertile land and is proximate to
Beijing and Shanghai. We intend to commence building our second five-farm hub in
2014 in Inner Mongolia, which will have similar operational advantages. In Indonesia, our
farm is located 1,200 meters above sea level, with cool and dry weather and good
access to water. In addition, we have purchased land for a second dairy farm in Blitar,
East Java, Indonesia and we target completion of construction of this farm in the first half
of 2016.
We believe that our consistent application of these practices is the driving factor that
underpins the success of our dairy business. This success is reflected in the following:
Milk quality: our milk is of the highest quality in both the Chinese and the Indonesian
market. The protein and fat levels of our milk exceed both Chinese and international
industry standards by substantial margins, while our microbe counts and somatic cell
counts are only about one-tenth of the maximum counts allowed by those standards.
See BusinessOur Dairy Segment. Especially in the Chinese market, with its recent
history of food quality scandals involving milk, this high quality gives us a significant
advantage over many other milk producers in the market.
Premium pricing: the premium quality of our milk results in premium prices for our milk,
as customers look to use our milk for the production of their high-end dairy products. In
the first three months of 2014, our raw milk sold for an average price of RMB 5.25 per
kilogram, compared to an average price for milk for ten key production regions in China
of RMB 4.24 per kilogram, according to the China Ministry of Agriculture.2
Milk yields: our average milk yield per cow in 2013 was 9.1 tons per annum in Indonesia
and 11.5 tons per annum in China, compared to industry averages of 3 tons per annum
and 5.5 tons per annum in these countries.

10
meat consumption. To capitalize on this market opportunity, we use our high-quality protein
products to make processed meat products marketed under leading brands such as So Good,
So Nice and Best Chicken. In Indonesia, our consumer food segment has the second-largest
market share in frozen consumer food and the third-largest market share in
ambient-temperature food. Further, we also source milk from third parties in Indonesia to
produce UHT milk for the mass market segment in Indonesia in ready-to-drink small
convenience packs under the Real Good brand. We expect strong growth from this market
segment. We expect that our significant experience in the management, marketing and
distribution of our downstream brands and products will be instrumental in supporting our
expansion into the downstream dairy business in China.
Because we control virtually the entire production chain for most of these products, we have a
high level of traceability and quality control for our consumer foods, which provides us with a
strong reputation for quality and reliability, in particular with international food service
customers and leading modern retailers.
We benefit from a strong management team focused on growth and driving group
synergies across our business segments.
Our senior management team consists of experienced industry executives with a long history
in our Group and a clear long-term vision of our Groups business. This team is supported by
operational leaders who are integral to our success and future growth strategies and have
extensive experience in the day-to-day operations of farms, feedmills, food processing plants,
and all other aspects of our business. This combination of long-term vision and strong
operational expertise is the key reason for our Groups success in growing from one feedmill
more than 40 years ago to our market-leading poultry business, and more recently, our
sizeable dairy business.
We believe that the structure of our organization and the manner in which the business
segments operate with each other drive synergies across our Group. For example, in each of
our business segments:
our senior management team fosters an industrialized farming culture and approach to
operations. The strength and consistency of this culture facilitates collaboration across
business segments;
the operational segment leaders are highly experienced with significant industry and
technical knowledge. They have developed best practices for their businesses, and
these competencies can be shared across our Group; and
we benefit from the expertise and experience developed in other business segments by
sharing key resources when we expand into new markets or implement new growth and
operational initiatives.
OUR STRATEGY
We intend to drive the growth of our Group through the following strategic initiatives:
Expand our dairy business in China through the continued replication of our
successful business model
We intend to expand our China dairy business and grow the number of our dairy farms in
China, commencing with the construction of another five-farm hub in Inner Mongolia. We
have entered into a framework agreement with the Chifeng City Government of Inner
Mongolia for the construction of this new five-farm hub, and we intend to begin construction of
the first farm before the end of 2014 and to complete the second five-farm hub in 2018. See
11
Use of Proceeds. We expect the second hub to increase our total herd size in China to
approximately 120,000 heads of cattle by the end of 2018. For the construction and operation
of the second hub, we plan to replicate our current farm designs and operating systems in
order to achieve similar productivity to our current farms. We believe that this expansion will
allow us to capitalize on the current supply deficit for premium milk in China and to enlarge
our footprint as a leading premium milk producer in Asia.
Continue to grow and enhance the profitability of our core poultry business in
Indonesia
Our poultry operations in Indonesia are a core part of our business, providing us with the
strong foundation of a profitable, growing and cash flow-generative business segment. We
believe there are significant opportunities for growing this business as Indonesias per capita
income continues to rise and as we increase our feed capacity, our DOC production and the
reach of our downstream consumer brands. We plan to continue to build breeding farms and
aim to expand our production of DOCs from almost 600 million in 2013 by approximately 30%
in the next two years. In 2013, we invested approximately IDR492.4 million (US$47.2 million)
into growing our production capacity for DOCs in Indonesia, which consisted primarily of
construction of new breeding farms and hatcheries. We expect that this additional capacity,
along with additional capital expenditures into our DOC production capacity in 2014, will
underpin our growth plans for DOC production in Indonesia over the next two years. As we
grow our DOC production, we also intend to increase our feed capacity and production to
support our growth in DOCs.
To cater for more DOCs and to account for a shift in consumer preferences toward highquality processed foods, we plan to increase the capacity of our existing slaughterhouses and
to build additional slaughterhouses. Depending on the extent of these developments, we may
double our processing capacity in the next several years, and we expect that our sales from
processed or dressed poultry will increase as a proportion of our total sales.
Expand our animal protein business in our target markets
As we expect consumption of animal proteins to increase in Asia, we intend to expand our
animal protein business in certain of our five target markets. For example, we intend to
replicate our industrialized approach to farming in order to establish a market-leading position
for swine in Vietnam and to expand our poultry operations in Myanmar. Similarly, in China, we
intend to draw upon synergies with the expansion of our dairy business in order to grow our
beef operations. Across our five classes of proteins and our five target markets, we may
consider opportunities for acquiring existing businesses on a case-by-case basis. We
currently have no specific plans to expand into new animal proteins or new geographies
beyond that in which we currently operate.
Build on our high-growth consumer food brands
We believe that our consumer food business has significant potential for future growth, due to
the high value-add nature of the business, our competitive advantage resulting from our
vertical integration and the shifting preferences of consumers. We intend to capitalize on this
growth potential over the medium to long term by continuing to invest in our consumer food
business, both for ambient temperature meat products and chilled or frozen meat products.
We will seek to expand the reputation and market reach of our consumer food brands,
including Real Good for mass market UHT milk and So Good and So Nice for processed
meats. To that end, we intend to increase our manufacturing and processing capacity in
Indonesia and Vietnam and to expand our distribution capabilities in Indonesia, Vietnam and
Myanmar.

EBITDA is not a standard measure under FRS. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or construed as an
alternative to cash flows, net income or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of operating performance,
liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities. EBITDA does not account for
taxes, interest expense or other non-operating cash expenses. In evaluating EBITDA, we believe that investors should
consider, among other things, the components of EBITDA such as revenues and operating expenses and the amount by
which EBITDA exceeds capital expenditures and other charges. EBITDA presented herein may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures presented by other companies. You should not compare EBITDA presented by us to EBITDA
presented by other companies because not all companies use the same definition. You should also note that EBITDA as
presented herein is calculated differently from Consolidated EBITDA as defined and used in the Indenture governing our
21
US dollar-denominated senior notes due 2018 and EBITDA as defined for the purposes of our other indebtedness. See
Material IndebtednessIndebtednessUS Dollar-Denominated Senior Notes Due 2018.

We define profit from continuing operations excluding increases/decrease in fair value of biological assets, net of tax as
profit from continuing operations, net of tax excluding the fair value changes of our biological assets and the taxes thereon,

FRS 41 is an accounting standard that requires us to value our dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine measured on initial
recognition and at the end of the reporting year. The fair value movements from year-on-year under FRS 41 are non-cash
items and therefore are not used by us when measuring our Groups operational performance because they are not
reflective of the underlying business. We believe that the inclusion of this adjusted profitability measure (excluding FRS 41
fair value changes and the taxes thereon) is useful to investors because it provides a means of evaluating our Groups
operating performance and results from period to period on a comparable basis not otherwise apparent when the impact of
the changes in fair value of biological assets under FRS 41 is included. Profit from continuing operations excluding
increases in fair value of biological assets, net of tax is not a standard measure under FRS and should not be considered
in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, net income or any other measure of performance or as an
indicator of operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing
activities. It may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies and you should not
compare this measure with that of other companies because not all companies use the same definition.

RISK FACTORS
Prospective investors should carefully evaluate the following considerations and all other
information contained in this Prospectus before deciding to invest in our Shares. The risks
described below are not the only ones we face. There may be additional risks not described
below or not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial that turn out
to be material. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be
materially and adversely affected by any of these risks, should they occur or turn out to be
material. The market price of our Shares could decline due to any of these risks, and
investors may lose part or all of their investment in our Shares.
This Prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Our actual results of operations could differ materially from those anticipated in these forwardlooking statements due to a variety of factors, including the risks described below and those
discussed in the section entitled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of OperationsFactors Affecting Our Business, Financial Condition
and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this Prospectus. See Notice to Investors
Forward-Looking Statements.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Outbreaks of livestock diseases could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Outbreaks of diseases affecting livestock at our poultry, beef cattle, swine, aquaculture and
dairy farms or facilities could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Since 2003, the H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza, or bird flu, which is potentially lethal to
humans, has affected poultry flocks and other birds in several countries around the world,
including in Indonesia, China and Vietnam. Avian Influenza is highly contagious among birds
and can cause sickness or death of domesticated birds, including chickens, geese, ducks and
turkeys. Although we have an internal biosecurity policy and biosecurity measures in place at
all of our farms and production facilities, there can be no assurance that there will be no
outbreak in the future or that our biosecurity measures will be effective in the event of an
outbreak.
Previous outbreaks of the H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza in Indonesia have resulted in
reduced demand for chickens and a drop in the price of DOCs and chicken products we
produce and sell. In particular, the initial outbreak of H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza in
Indonesia in 2003 and 2004 resulted in a reduction in our gross profit for the first quarter of
2004 for our Indonesian poultry business of approximately 12.4% from the previous
comparative period. In March 2013, there was an outbreak of the H7N9 strain of Avian
Influenza in China, which spread to humans and resulted in deaths. The strain does not
appear to adversely affect the health of birds and, as such, it is difficult to detect prior to
human infection. Similar outbreaks could occur in the future, in Indonesia or elsewhere.
We currently source most of our grandparent stocks for DOCs from Aviagens foreign-based
operations (predominantly the United States). While no cases of Avian Influenza or other
livestock diseases have been reported in Aviagens U.S.- or Australia-based production
facilities, there can be no assurance that this will continue to be the case. Outbreaks of Avian
Influenza or other livestock diseases in the U.S. or Australia may result in a ban in imports by
the governments of the countries where we operate of grandparent stocks from these
countries. In the event of such outbreaks resulting in imposition of import bans, the cost of
breeder flocks of similar quality imported from alternative sources could be higher than the
cost of our current supplies. In addition, there can be no assurance that any such alternative
supplies would be readily available to meet our requirements or at all. Any long-term
23
interruption in supplies of breeder flocks would have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Similarly, a major outbreak of disease at any of our dairy farms in China or Indonesia could
have a significant adverse impact on our milk production capacity and volume. We vaccinate
our dairy cows according to the different stages of their growth at each of our dairy farms.
However, we cannot guarantee that animal diseases, including but not limited to, FMD,
brucellosis, bovine TB and bovine paratuberculosis, will not occur at our dairy farms or that
we will always be able to monitor or detect any illness or diseases among our cows or on
neighboring farms.
Our beef, swine and aquaculture operations are also vulnerable to disease and other
biological hazards. If disease outbreaks or other biological hazards are not successfully
contained by the bio-security measures we have in place, the volume of swine feed and
aqua-feed we produce and the size of our beef cattle may decrease, mortality rates could
increase and we may suffer production delays and shortages, which could have a material
adverse effect on our production and/or sales of our products, which would have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
Any future outbreak of a livestock disease could result in any of the following, all of which
could have a material adverse effect on our business:
the governments in the countries in which we operate may require us to destroy one or
more of our flocks or herds;
our dairy farms may experience a significant shortfall in our raw milk production;
one or more of our facilities may be placed in quarantine until the threat of disease
spreading is eliminated;
the importation of grandparent stocks into the countries in which we operate may be
prohibited; and/or
operations at this farm could lead to a stoppage of raw milk production which we would
require as a raw material for our downstream dairy products. This would materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. In
addition, our brand value and the perception of our customers towards our brand may be
adversely affected as well.
Exchange rate fluctuations and exchange controls and policies may materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects and the foreign currency value of our Shares and any future dividend
distributions.
We are exposed to risks related to exchange rate fluctuations, particularly with respect to the
US$. Our revenues in the countries in which we operate are denominated in IDR, RMB, VND,
INR and Burmese Kyat. However, many of our borrowings are denominated in US$ and we
pay the interest accruing under such borrowings in US$. In addition, the prices of some of our
raw materials (for instance corn) are linked to international commodity index prices, which are
in US$, and hence expose us to fluctuations in the US$ exchange rate. We have not hedged
all of our foreign currency exposure in the past. Unfavorable exchange rate fluctuations may
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations
and/or prospects.
In 2013, emerging market currencies (including those mentioned above) depreciated against
the US$ and there is no assurance that such currency depreciation will not continue. For
example, the IDR depreciated 21% against the US$ in 2013. In March 2014, the PRC
doubled the trading band for the RMB, which also led to the RMB further weakening against
the US$. Trading in these currencies may continue to experience significant volatility. Any
significant depreciation in the value of the currencies of the countries in which we operate will
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of
operations. Please also see Selected Combined Financial Information and Other
InformationCombined Statement of Comprehensive Income for information on our foreign
exchange adjustments for FY2011, FY2012, FY2013 and 1Q2014.
Further, our Shares will be quoted in Singapore dollars on the SGX-ST. Dividends, if any, in
respect of our Shares will be paid in Singapore dollars. Exchange rate gains or losses will
arise when the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into US$ for
financial reporting and Singapore dollars for repatriation purposes. If the functional currencies
of our subsidiaries depreciate against the US$ and the Singapore dollar, this may materially
and adversely affect our Groups reported financial results and dividends, if any, respectively.
Central banks in the countries in which we operate may intervene in the currency exchange
markets in furtherance of their policies, either by selling local currency or by using their
foreign currency reserves to purchase local currency. We cannot assure you that such
currencies will not be subject to depreciation and continued volatility, or that the various
governments will take additional action to stabilize, maintain or increase the value of their
respective currencies, or that any of these actions, if taken, will be successful. Modification of
the current exchange rate policies by any of the countries in which we operate could result in
significantly higher domestic interest rates, liquidity shortages, capital or exchange controls or
the withholding of additional financial assistance by multinational lenders. This could result in
a reduction of economic activity, an economic recession, loan defaults or declining interest by
our customers, and as a result, we may also face difficulties in funding our capital expenditure
and in implementing our business strategy. Any of the foregoing consequences could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects.
25
Our business is dependent upon the price and availability of corn and other feed raw
materials.
Our operations are dependent upon the price and availability of raw materials. The single
largest component of our cost of goods sold is the cost of raw materials used in the
preparation of feed, which accounted for 84.5% of our cost of goods sold in the year ended
December 31, 2013 and 88.3% of our cost of goods sold for the three months ended
March 31, 2014. We do not grow our own corn or other raw materials and do not intend to do
so in the near future. We also have not entered into any hedging transactions with respect to
the raw materials we use in our products.
The price and availability of corn and our other raw material requirements can therefore have
a significant effect on our cost of goods sold. We import a portion of our raw materials such as
corn, soybean meal, feed vitamins, animal protein meal and wheat products from the United
States, South America, China, India, Europe, Australia and Canada and purchase a
substantial amount of our corn from domestic farmers. Market prices for corn and soybean
meal may be subject to fluctuations resulting from weather, the size of harvests,
transportation and storage costs, governmental agricultural policies, currency exchange rates
and other factors and most of these suppliers deal with us on a spot basis due, in part, to
uncertainty caused by these factors. Worldwide corn prices, for example, have increased in
recent years due, in part, to increased demand for biofuels in the United States. Soybean
prices have also increased in recent years. In the event that one or all of our established
suppliers were to cease supplying to us or we are not able to negotiate a price for our key raw
materials that is acceptable to us and of sufficient quality, our business and results of
operations would be materially adversely affected.
In addition, although we have historically been able to pass on cost increases to our feed
business customers, there can be no assurance we will be able to continue doing so in the
future either on a timely basis or at all. If we are unable to pass on cost increases to our
customers and we are unsuccessful in alternatively managing our exposure to the effects of
raw material price fluctuations, our financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects
could be materially adversely affected.
We are dependent on a constant supply of good genetics.
The quality of our livestock depends initially on the supply of good genetics. There are limited
suppliers of such genetics and we may not always be able to obtain such genetics on terms
acceptable to us, or at all.
We are the sole importer into Indonesia of high-grade Indian River breed broiler from Aviagen
Inc., a U.S.-based poultry breeding company. Pursuant to our contracts with Aviagen, we
have the rights to sell and distribute Indian River breeds of DOC in Indonesia and in other
countries approved by Aviagen (including Vietnam, Myanmar and India). We import
grandparent stock for our layer hens from Lohmann Tierzucht.
We have also set up Japfa Hypor Genetics Company Limited (Japfa Hypor)1, a joint
venture with Hypor B.V., a global swine genetics company (Hypor), in Vietnam, and we
depend on Hypor to supply us with swine genetics for the production of a high performance
breed of pigs. We sell our specially formulated swine feed and high performance breed of
pigs to farmers in Vietnam. Please see Corporate Structure and OwnershipCertain
Commercial Arrangements relating to our SubsidiariesJapfa Hypor Joint Venture
Agreement.
While we have good and long working relationships with our suppliers for genetics, there can
be no assurance that we will be successful in negotiating our contracts with them in the

Commercial Arrangements Relating to our SubsidiariesJapfa Hypor Joint Venture Agreement.
26
future. Such suppliers may offer terms that are not commercially attractive to us or may
terminate the contracts or refuse to renew. In the event of a supply failure or the cessation of
our relationship with such suppliers, it may not be possible for us to source an alternative
supplier of high grade genetics in a timely manner or at all. In addition, we have invested
significantly in research and development, including development of complementary feed
products which may not be tailored to alternative breeds developed from genetics of other
suppliers. This may result in additional costs being incurred to redevelop complementary feed
products for alternative breeds developed from genetics of other suppliers. Any termination or
interruption of our supply relationship with suppliers of our genetics could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
We are exposed to product safety and quality-related risks that may harm our business
and reputation and subject us to product liability claims and/or regulatory action.
Product safety and quality is critical to our business and we rely heavily on our quality control
systems to ensure the safety and quality of our products. See Business for more details on
our quality control systems. While we believe that our quality control systems function
properly and we routinely inspect the safety and quality of products prior to their being
delivered to our customers, we cannot assure you that failures in our quality control systems
will not occur in the future. Such failures may occur due to technical malfunctions, including of
the instruments used to measure feed quality, chemical residue of feed, raw milk quality and
veterinary drug residue or through negligence or misconduct occurring during the production
or operating process which results in product contamination. Our safety and quality inspection
systems may not always be able to detect any such contamination or quality-related issues.
Contamination and quality-related issues may also result from residues introduced during the
storage, handling and transportation phases. Any such contamination or quality related issues
could cause us to suffer from monetary losses through product liability claims or penalties
assessed by government agencies or result in damage to our reputation, which would in turn
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects.
Our products (including raw milk and poultry) are also processed and handled by other third
party downstream manufacturers. If those downstream products are contaminated, and if the
contamination is ultimately traced back to our products, we could be subject to product liability
claims by individuals for damages, including, among other things, claims for medical
expenses, disability and even wrongful death and penalties assessed by government
agencies. In addition, our sales could be affected even if any contaminated downstream
products cannot be traced back to us, if such contaminated products cause any of our
customers to suffer reputational harm and lost sales, as this in turn could reduce demand for
our products.
We could be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in the safety and quality of the
food supply chain. These concerns could cause shoppers to avoid purchasing certain
products from us, or to seek alternative sources of supply for their food needs, even if the
basis for the concern is not valid and/or is outside of our control. Adverse publicity about
these types of concerns, whether or not valid, could discourage consumers from buying our
products and any lost confidence on the part of our customers would be difficult and costly to
re-establish. Any product contamination involving our competitors could also impact the
reputation of the industry as a whole and have a negative effect on our business.
We have been and could in the future be subject to restrictive governmental measures,
such as price or volume controls.
We may from time to time become subject to restrictive governmental policies, such as price
or volume controls, in the jurisdictions in which we operate. In particular, in April 2014, in an
effort to support small holder broiler farmers, the Indonesian government, through the Minister
of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia issued a letter pursuant to its price policy addressed to
leading Indonesian poultry companies, including us, requesting that these companies cap the
27
sales price for their DOCs and limit their production volumes. Specifically, the letter fixed the
maximum price for DOCs at Rp.3,200 per head and asked that producers decrease their
production of broilers and layers by 15%. The terms of the letter were effective for a period of
one month (commencing on April 15, 2014), subject to weekly evaluation as well as any
adjustment from time to time. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the measures that were the
subject of the letter are no longer in force. For details, see Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsFactors Affecting our Business,
Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRegulatory Environment and Appendix C
RegulationSummary of Relevant Indonesian Laws and RegulationsGeneral Trade.
The capped price of Rp.3,200 per DOC represented a significant discount to our prevailing
sale price for DOCs, which was Rp.4,517 per DOC in 2013.
There can be no assurance that the Indonesian government or the governments in other
jurisdictions in which we operate will not implement similar restrictive measures in the future.
The prolonged continuance of any such restrictive measures could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. See also The
interpretation and application of laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate
involve uncertainty.
Failure to comply with environmental regulations, could harm our operating results,
financial condition and reputation.
We are required to comply with environmental protection, health and safety laws and
regulations. Some of these regulations govern the level of fees payable to government
entities providing environmental protection services and the prescribed standards relating to
the discharge of effluent, or liquid waste. These laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in
which we operate require us to adopt measures to effectively control and properly dispose of
waste gases, waste water, industrial waste, dust and other environmental waste materials.
We produce a certain amount of solid waste and other environmental waste in our breeding,
farming and production processes and are subject to restrictions relating to the discharge of
such waste.
Due to the scale of our operations, it is inevitable that a large quantity of waste and emissions
is produced, some of which require appropriate disposal. Although we have installed or are in
the process of installing treatment systems and have adopted measures to control the
disposal of waste gases, waste water and other environmental waste materials and to reduce
the environmental impact of the discharged waste, there is no assurance that these measures
may be sufficient now or in the future.
In the event that environmental laws, regulations or government policies are amended and
more stringent requirements are imposed on us, we may incur significantly increased costs
and expenses and may need to allocate additional resources to comply with such
requirements.
In the course of our operations, we may have unknowingly emitted pollutants or otherwise
caused environmental damage or may have been in breach of applicable environmental laws
and regulations. Even with careful and regular monitoring, such environmental issues may
continue until they are brought to our attention. Any failures to comply with environmental
laws and regulations may lead to claims, liabilities or the suspension of our operations, and
thereby materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations
and/or prospects.
If we fail to comply with any of the relevant environmental laws and regulations, depending on
the type and severity of any violation, we may be subject to, among other things, warnings
from relevant authorities, imposition of fines and/or criminal liability, being ordered to close
down our business operations and suspension of relevant permits. As a result, our reputation
28
may be harmed and our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects
could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, because these laws and regulations
are becoming increasingly more stringent worldwide, there can be no assurance that we will
not be required to incur significant costs to comply with such laws and regulations in the
future.
The PRC
As at the Latest Practicable Date, Dongying Japfa (in respect of the beef feedlot in the PRC)
has not submitted its environmental impact assessment report. Dongying Japfa had
commenced construction at the beef feedlot prior to obtaining approval for its environmental
impact assessment reports. Each of DYAA, TAAA, DXAA and DSAA (in respect of Dairy
Farms 1 to 4 respectively) and Dongying Japfa (in respect of the beef feedlot) has not
obtained the official inspection and acceptance opinion from the local environmental
protection authorities as the environmental protection facilities are under construction.
Pollution discharge permits have also not been applied for due to the lack of the
aforementioned opinions.
The relevant regulations stipulate that approval should be obtained for the environmental
impact assessment report prior to construction and operations can only commence after
completing construction of the environmental protection facilities and obtaining the necessary
opinions. However, the four dairy farms and the beef feedlot began operations prior to
obtaining all necessary approvals and opinions. Under the relevant regulations, the
competent authorities may order us to suspend our production and may also impose penalties
of up to RMB100,000 per farm or feedlot for commencing operations without undergoing
inspections. In respect of Dongying Japfas failure to submit its environmental impact
assessment report, the competent environmental authority may order Dongying Japfa to
cease construction and rectify such failure within a specified time. Penalties of up to
RMB200,000 may be imposed for failing to undertake such rectification within the specified
time. Pollution discharge permits have also not been applied for and under the relevant
regulations, orders may be made for corrective measures to be undertaken within a specified
time limit and for a fine of up to RMB50,000 per farm or feedlot. There is no assurance that
the necessary approvals will be obtained in a timely manner or at all. Please see Business
Compliance.
Dairy Farms 1 to 4 accounted for approximately 28.8% of our Groups total net asset value
(the NAV) as at December 31, 2013 and contributed 3.5% and 22.3% of revenue and profit
before tax for the financial year ended December 31, 2013, respectively. Dongying Japfas
beef feedlot accounted for approximately 0.6% of our Groups total NAV as at December 31,
2013 and was not yet revenue generating.
Vietnam
As at the Latest Practicable Date, 42 of the 64 swine and poultry farms operated by Japfa
Comfeed Vietnam Limited Company (JCVN), Japfa Comfeed Long An Limited Company
(JCLA) and Japfa Comfeed Binh Thuan Limited Company (JCBT) have been leased from
lessors who, in breach of their obligations under the respective leases, have not obtained all
environmental licenses and permissions necessary for these farming activities. In addition,
JCLAs feedmill has not obtained a license to discharge waste. The lack of such licenses and
permissions may result in a suspension of the operations of the said farms, which could have
a material adverse effect on the business and financial condition of JCVN or JCLA, as the
case may be. Whilst our Vietnamese subsidiaries have commenced periodic monitoring on
the status of rectification and are working with the relevant lessors to resolve the issues
above by facilitating communication with the local and government authorities (only where
appropriate), there is no assurance that such issues will be resolved in a timely manner or at
all.
29
Our Groups animal protein business in Vietnam contributed 10.6% of our Groups revenue for
the financial year ended December 31, 2013. Please see BusinessComplianceTitles and
Licences Monitoring and Compliance.
Our title and leasehold rights over certain of the land we use may be subject to
significant legal uncertainties and defects.
There is no central title registry for real property in some of the jurisdictions we operate in.
The methods of documentation of land records in these jurisdictions have not been fully
computerized and are generally maintained at state and district level and updated manually
through physical records of all land-related documents and may not be available online for
inspection or updated in a timely manner. This could result in investigations into property
records being time consuming and/or inaccurate, which may impact our ability to rely on
them. In certain instances, there may be a discrepancy between the extent of the areas stated
in the revenue records and the areas stated in the title deeds, and the actual physical area of
some of the lands on which our farms are constructed. The land records are often handwritten and may not be legible, which make it difficult to ascertain the contents of the records.
Further, the land records are often in poor condition and at times untraceable, which impedes
the title investigation process. As a result, the validity of our title or leasehold rights over land
may not be clear or may be in doubt.
The PRC
There is no assurance that the lease contracts entered into by some of our PRC subsidiaries
in respect of approximately 12,367.5 mu of leased cropping land (ancillary to Dairy Farms 1, 2
and 3), and approximately 256.4 mu of farmland (comprising 19.33% of Dairy Farm 2) are
effective, due to incomplete supporting documents evidencing the lessors right to grant us
such leases. In addition, whilst TAAA has sub-leased collectively-owned rural land for Dairy
Farm 2 from the local government for a period of 40 years, this land was sub-leased by the
local government from villagers committees who in turn leased the land from villagers for
periods of between 17 and 40 years. As such, any lease term beyond the original underlying
lease terms between the villagers and the villagers committee may be void and require
renewal. There can be no assurance that the terms of such renewal will be on commercially
acceptable terms to any of the villagers committee, the local government and TAAA. Longterm leasing of collectively-owned rural land is subject to uncertainties, such as termination or
breach by local villagers or committees of the local villages or other relevant parties, which
are not risks associated with state-owned land. If any of the said leases are deemed to be
ineffective, we may be required to identify alternative cropping land and in the case of TAAA,
to relocate to alternative farmland and incur additional costs in doing so.
Some of our land lease contracts in the PRC stipulate a lease term of more than 20 years.
However, any period stipulated in such contract which is in excess of the initial 20-year term,
may be viewed as void under the relevant PRC laws and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries
may be required to renew such lease contracts after the initial 20-year term has expired. If
such renewal is required, there can be no assurance that the terms of renewal will be
commercially acceptable to us.
Vietnam
JCVN, JCLA and JCBT are also operating an aggregate of 64 swine and poultry farms under
medium term leases of between five to eight years where 39 lessors are in breach of their
obligations under the relevant leases. In respect of 29 of these farms, the lessors have not
duly registered in their name such land use rights in respect of some or all of their land and/or
the leased area is larger than the land area capable of being leased under the relevant land
use right certificate. For the land portion beyond the area specified in the land use right
certificate, the lessor may not have title over such land portion and the assets attached
thereto. In the absence of a duly registered land use right certificate, the leases over the
30
respective lands may be compromised by the rights of any adverse possessors or prior
owners of the lands or other title defects that the lessees may not be aware of. In addition, the
land-use purpose for 20 farms has not yet been amended in the relevant land use right
certificates to reflect the actual purpose (swine farming or poultry farming, as the case may
be) but remain the purpose originally permitted by the State when leasing the relevant lands
to the lessors concerned. The use of land for wrong purposes may expose the lessors to the
risk of the land being confiscated by the State. Whilst these lessors are in the process of
applying to the State for a change in land-use purpose, there is no assurance that such landuse purpose may be changed. 21 farms are leased from lessors who have not been licensed
to lease farms. Under Vietnamese law, lease agreements entered into by such lessors may
be rendered null and void and we may have to source for alternative farms. In addition, in
respect of four farms leased by JCBT, the lessors have mortgaged their land use rights to
lenders. In the event these lessors fail to discharge their respective obligations to the lenders,
the leased land may be foreclosed on by such lenders for enforcement under the relevant
mortgage agreements. Whilst such foreclosure will not extend to the assets of JCBT used on
such leased farms, the leases may be terminated and JCBT may not be able to operate
further from such farms. Whilst our Vietnamese subsidiaries have commenced periodic
monitoring on the status of rectification and are working with the relevant lessors to resolve
the issues above by facilitating communication with the local and government authorities (only
where appropriate), there is no assurance that such issues will be resolved in a timely manner
or at all.
Our Groups animal protein business in Vietnam contributed 10.6% of our Groups revenue for
the financial year ended December 31, 2013.
Please see BusinessComplianceTitles and Licences Monitoring and Compliance.
Indonesia
In Indonesia, the State Land Authority (Badan Pertanahan Nasional) adopts a negative stelsel
system in relation to the land registration process. This means that the land administration
system in Indonesia enables any party to apply for the right on a plot of land by proving
required ownership evidence in the form of a document or witness which has evidentiary
value. Should the measurement process by the State Land Authority and subsequent
verification and identification against the land book maintained by the State Land Authority
show that the right does not overlap with other existing rights, the State Land Authority will
make a public announcement and issue a land ownership decree in relation to such land. In
the event that there is no objection or claim to the designated land, the State Land Authority
will issue the certificate to the applying party. However, even if our Group has registered its
lands and obtained certificates under its name, it does not prevent the land from being
claimed by a third party who may claim to have rights over our Groups lands, as under
Indonesian law the court has no competency to refuse a claim without going through a
hearing process.
We are subject
requirements.
to
applicable
governmental
regulations,
including
licensing
We hold various licenses and permits issued by various government authorities and
regulatory agencies in the countries in which we operate, and such licenses and permits are
essential for the conduct of our business. For more information, see BusinessLicenses
and Appendix CRegulation.
These licenses and permits are generally subject to a variety of conditions which are either
stipulated in the licenses and permits themselves or under the particular legislation and/or
regulations. The continuation of these licenses and permits may be subject to periodic
examinations and/or random inspections by the relevant authorities to ensure that our
premises comply with all relevant regulations of the issuing authority.
31
Any breach or material non-compliance with the regulations of the issuing authorities may
result in suspension, withdrawal or termination or the relevant licenses and permits, financial
penalties or cessation of our operations.
In the ordinary course of business, we are required to undertake the renewal of various
licences and permits. Our operations are generally in emerging market economies where
such renewal processes generally take longer. We cannot guarantee that, upon the expiration
of any of our licenses and permits, we will be able to renew all necessary licenses and
permits in the future in a timely manner or at all or that we will not be subject to suspension,
withdrawal or termination of our licenses and permits. Any failure to secure renewal, or loss,
or a required license or permit, would materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
We are also in the process of applying for certain new regulatory licenses, approvals and
permits as most new projects commissioned by our Group would require relevant regulatory
approvals. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such licenses, approvals and
permits in a timely manner or at all. Certain of our business operations may already have
commenced and/or been operating for an extended period of time without the requisite
licenses, approvals and permits. Please see below and Failure to comply with
environmental regulations, could harm our operating results, financial condition and
reputation. and Our title and leasehold rights over certain of the land we use may be
subject to significant legal uncertainties and defects. Even if we are able to obtain such
licenses, approvals and permits, there is no assurance that the relevant authorities would not
hold us responsible for previous breaches as a result of operating without the relevant
licenses, approvals and permits and we may be subject to various sanctions including
monetary penalties which could materially adversely affect our financial performance and/or
results of operations. In addition, some of our land / farm lease agreements stipulate that the
lessor is responsible for obtaining the requisite licenses and approvals. There is no assurance
that such lessors have obtained the requisite licenses and approvals. In the event the relevant
authorities impose a monetary penalty on us or order us to suspend our operations, this may
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects.
Vietnam
The investment certificates of JCVN, JCLA and JCBT have not been updated to reflect the
expanded scope of business of these companies. As at the Latest Practicable Date, 60 farms
leased by these companies are located outside the designated locations under the respective
investment certificates. JCVN, JCLA and/or JCBT may be subject to an administrative fine
imposed by the licensing authorities in an amount of between VND5 million to VND7 million
(approximately US$237 to US$332). The authorities also have the power to require JCVN,
JCLA and/or JCBT to cease such non-compliance, which may result in these farm leases
being terminated, resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and/or prospects .
Two of JCLAs projects and one of JCBTs projects have been delayed beyond their
respective implementation schedules. Under the laws of Vietnam, the investment certificate of
a project may be withdrawn if such a project is terminated by the competent authority as a
result of being delayed for more than 12 months. A penalty of between VND15 million to
VND20 million (approximately US$711 to US$948) may also be levied in respect of such
delay. If the delay lasts for more than 24 months, the land leased to the relevant project may
also be recovered by the local authorities and the project can no longer be carried on. As at
the Latest Practicable Date, whilst no penalties have been levied or other action taken by the
authorities in respect of these delays, if any of the above occurs, it may result in a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
32
Our dairy business is influenced by a number of factors, some of which are beyond our
control.
The quality of our raw milk and yield of our dairy cows are two important determinants of the
success of our dairy business. Our raw milk quality and yield are influenced by a number of
factors that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:
feed supply factorsthe volume and quality of milk produced by dairy cows being linked
closely to the nutritional quality of the feed provided;
seasonal factorsdairy cows generally producing more milk in temperate weather than
in extremely cold or hot weather. Extended unseasonal cold or hot weather could
potentially lead to lower than expected raw milk production;
breeding factorsthe genetic quality of a dairy cow having a direct impact on the yield
and quality of milk produced by such dairy cow; and
health factorspotential outbreaks of diseases among our dairy cows and dairy cows
from neighboring farms.
The quality of our dairy cows is an important factor affecting the production of raw milk, which
is in turn dependent on the quality and supply of the Holstein Friesian dairy cows we import
from Australia. If at any time the quality of imported Holstein Friesian dairy cows we purchase
is compromised, the quality and yield of our raw milk may not be sustained at current levels or
improve at the rate we expect in the long term. Furthermore, the quality of our dairy cows has
a direct impact on the protein content and fat content of our raw milk, which in turn could
affect the price at which we can sell our raw milk.
Our animal protein business may be affected by our ability to import / export livestock.
Any unforeseen social, political or economic event in the countries from which we import our
livestock could have a negative effect upon our animal protein businesses. For example, in
Australia, a number of groups staged protests in relation to live exports of cattle which
resulted in a temporary disruption in the supply of live cattle to Indonesia. There is a risk that
such groups could become increasingly active and influence the relevant authorities to make
changes to current regulations and impose more rigorous standards upon the operations of
animal protein companies like us. Protests against live exports of livestock may also generate
negative press about animal protein companies in general.
The Indonesian government has also issued a list of beef cattle prices that are used as a
reference prices for importers and/or exporters of beef cattle (Market Reference Prices). If
the beef cattle prices in the local Indonesian market is below the applicable Market Reference
Prices, the Indonesian government can temporarily suspend the import of beef cattle. These
measures may have a material adverse effect on our ability to import cattle into Indonesia and
there is no assurance that our beef cattle business will be able to grow and/or be sustainable
in the future if such measures are maintained by the Indonesian government. In the event of a
temporary ban on the import of beef cattle into Indonesia, our business, financial condition,
results of operations and/or prospects could be materially adversely affected.
Rising operational costs could materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects.
The emerging market economies in which we operate are especially susceptible to higher
than usual levels of inflation as compared to developed economies. For example, the rate of
inflation in Indonesia and India was in excess of 8% for 2013. Such inflation rates may lead to
unsustainable rising labor and utilities costs, without a corresponding increase in our
productivity and/or revenues.
In the past few financial years, energy prices in Indonesia have risen dramatically, which has
resulted in increased energy-related costs for our feed production activities. We have also
33
experienced a significant increase in labor costs in jurisdictions such as the PRC and
Vietnam. Laws and regulations which facilitate the forming of labor unions, combined with
weak economic conditions, may result in labor unrest and activism. Such labor laws have
increased the amount of severance, service and compensation payments payable to
employees upon termination of employment, and may contribute to rising operational costs
and lower profit margins. If more of our personnel unionize, it may become difficult for us to
maintain flexible labor policies, and may increase our costs and have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
There can be no assurance that rising labor and utilities costs may not have an increasingly
adverse impact upon our operational costs and materially adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
Our insurance coverage may be inadequate.
Our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us from the key risks associated with our
business. We insure our principal assets against risk of physical loss or damage caused by
accident, fire, civil disorder and/or natural disasters. However, we do not have coverage
against losses arising from key risks such as Avian Influenza, as such insurance is not
customary, and is unavailable on commercially reasonable terms in the countries in which we
operate. Insurance for our livestock is not available in several of the countries in which we
operate in and is neither customary nor available in countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam and
India. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to maintain our
existing insurance coverage or obtain insurance policies on economically viable terms. If we
were to suffer a loss that is not adequately covered by insurance, our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected. For
more information, see BusinessInsurance.
We may not continue to benefit from favorable government policies.
We have benefited from government policies in certain jurisdictions in which we operate, such
as the PRC, Vietnam and Myanmar. Governments and local authorities have provided us
with, inter alia, preferential tax treatments, subsidies and other assistance such as access to
suitable sites for our operations, and assisted with access to infrastructure required for such
operations. For example, in the PRC, we have received preferential tax treatment and
subsidies as a result of such government policies that assist the dairy industry in order to
promote, among other things, improved industrialization and specialization levels of the
husbandry industry, accelerate the breeding and promotion of fine breeds of livestock and
increase milk yield of milking cows. In Vietnam, we have been granted preferential tax
treatments in respect of JCVN, some of which will expire in the next two years, whilst others
will be stepped-down. For more information, see Appendix CRegulation. If these
government policies change, our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
We face significant competition in the business segments in which we operate.
We face competition in each of our segments from other producers in the markets in which
we sell our products. In the animal protein segment, our primary competitor is the Charoen
Pokphand Group, which also offers a fully-integrated solution to its customers, and which
currently has a larger market share in the poultry breeding and feed production industries in
several of our key markets. For more information on the key competitors for our various
business segments, see BusinessCompetition. Key factors affecting our competitiveness
include price, product quality, brand identification, breadth of product line, distribution reach
and customer service.
For our dairy segment, we compete with other dairy players in China. Chinas dairy farming
industry, which historically has not been subject to high entry barriers or major restrictions,
34
continues to be extremely fragmented and is largely dominated by individual, small and midscale farms. However, there has been a gradual increase in the number of large-scale farms
in recent years due to the significantly higher efficiency and productivity of farms with scale,
the introduction of more favorable government policies towards such farms in the wake of the
melamine incident in 2008, and a greater focus on the safety and quality of raw milk supplies.
As such, we face competition from other large-scale domestic dairy farming companies who,
like us, produce premium raw milk for the high-end segment of the dairy products industry.
We also face competition from foreign suppliers that sell substitutes to raw milk, such as milk
powders, in the domestic China market. We cannot assure you that we will not be exposed to
increased competition from existing or future market players, some of whom may develop
products that are comparable to or superior in quality to, ours. In addition, if any of our
customers incorporates upstream dairy farming business into its operations, such customer
could cease to source raw milk supplies from us and, moreover, become one of our
competitors.
Further, as part of our integrated poultry and swine operations, we are able to bundle feed
and DOC/swine sales in order to offer an integrated package of services and products to our
farming customers, including technical advice to optimize results, productivity and the
competitive advantages of our customers. While our experience is that we gain a strategic
advantage from the integrated services and solutions that we offer, we cannot guarantee that
our integrated services and products will continue to appeal to present and future customers,
who may move to new or existing competitors who are able to offer similar products and
services more cheaply and individually, as and when required, rather than as part of an
integrated operation.
In addition, the poultry breeding and feed production business is highly competitive. The
poultry industry is still evolving technologically, particularly in relation to biotechnology
improvements in breed selection. The right breed, adjusted to local conditions, can lead to
significantly higher profits for farmers due to lower mortality, better growth rates and better
feed-to-weight conversion ratios. We exclusively use the Indian River breed, a breed which
has been specially tailored for tropical climate conditions, particularly in relation to tolerance
of heat, humidity and resistance to disease. We cannot guarantee that our competitors will not
offer new poultry breeds in the future, for example, as a result of their research and
development activities, that are genetically superior to our breeds and more appealing to
customers. Similarly, in our swine operations in Vietnam, there is no assurance that our
competitors will not be able to produce genetically superior breeds.
As Indonesia is a predominantly Muslim country, it is important that poultry be slaughtered
and maintained in a halal manner in accordance with religious requirements. Due to this and
other factors including import restrictions, imports of poultry products into Indonesia have
historically been relatively low. However, if (i) the import prohibition on chicken parts is
repealed, (ii) the regulation prohibiting chicken imports not certified as halal by the Indonesian
Council of Religious Scholars is amended, or (iii) the removal or reduction of the current 5%
import tariff on whole chickens is implemented, imports of chicken and chicken products
would be likely to increase and would adversely affect our business, financial condition,
results of operations and/or prospects. Foreign governments in markets where we export our
products may also impose quantity restrictions, introduce other non-tariff barriers or impose
higher taxes on imports to protect local producers.
Further, in the consumer food segment, we compete with other branded processed meat
producers. Increased competition may result in price reductions for our products and a loss of
market share and greater volatility in our revenues, which may, in turn, have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
35
36
Changes in consumer preferences away from our products could materially and
adversely affect us.
Changes in consumer preferences away from our products or negative publicity regarding
consumption of any of our products (for example, consumption of poultry) may reduce the
demand for our products. Consumer preferences for dairy, animal protein or consumer food
products can change for many reasons including changes in nutritional standards, health
advisories and general economic conditions.
Further, we are engaged in the production and sale of premium raw milk in China and dairy
products in Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the Philippines and Brunei. If the
consumers in these countries no longer consume large quantities of dairy products that are
manufactured using premium raw milk, the demand for our raw milk could diminish, which
would in turn adversely affect our business and results of operations. In addition, in the event
that there is any outbreak of animal disease affecting cows in Indonesia and/or China,
consumer confidence and interest in dairy products may be affected, which would in turn
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or
prospects.
Our growth strategy subjects us to various risks.
We plan to pursue a growth strategy that includes expanding our dairy and animal protein
businesses and further investing in our consumer food brands. Our growth strategies include
organic growth through the construction of new facilities as well as increasing our
manufacturing and production capacities and expanding our distribution capabilities. Risks
relating to our growth strategy include the following:
we may face increased costs, supply difficulties and competition in obtaining raw
materials for our operations;
we may not be able to hire and retain workers necessary for our expanded operations or
may have to pay higher wages for these workers than we expect; and
unforeseen circumstances and problems relating to our expansion projects may distract
our management from focusing on our existing operations.
We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify, acquire, or profitably manage our
expanded businesses without incurring substantial costs, or that we will not face delays or
other operational or financial difficulties in doing so.
We have substantial indebtedness and may be unable to satisfy certain covenants
under our senior notes or other debt facilities, which could materially and adversely
affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
As of March 31, 2014, our combined borrowings amounted to approximately US$1,065.2
million. For details, see Material Indebtedness.
Our high levels of indebtedness could have several important consequences, including, but
not limited to, the following:
we may be required to dedicate a portion of our cash flow toward repayment of our
existing debt, which will reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital,
capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements;
our ability to obtain additional financing in the future may be adversely affected;
37
there could be a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or
results of operations if we are unable to service our indebtedness or to comply with
covenants relating to such indebtedness or otherwise default on such indebtedness; and
On May 2, 2013, Comfeed Finance B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of PT Japfa, issued
senior notes denominated in US dollars with a nominal value of US$225 million due 2018 (the
Notes). The Notes bear interest at 6.0% per annum and are unconditionally and irrevocably
guaranteed by PT Japfa and certain of its subsidiaries. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes,
PT Japfa and its subsidiaries are subject to certain financial and other covenants. Among
other things, these covenants limit PT Japfas (and, where applicable, its subsidiaries) ability
to:
pay dividends, unless such dividend payments do not exceed 50% of PT Japfas
consolidated net income and meet certain other conditions;
repurchase shares of capital stock of PT Japfa or its subsidiaries and make certain other
restricted payments;
sell the capital stock of PT Japfas subsidiaries or, in the case of PT Japfas subsidiaries,
issue additional capital stock;
enter into transactions with related parties (which could constitute interested person
transactions for the purposes of Chapter 9 of the Listing Manual) unless such relatedparty transactions (as they are defined in the covenant) are entered into on terms that
are fair and reasonable and that are no less favorable to PT Japfa (and, where
applicable, its subsidiaries) than those that would have been obtained in a comparable
arms-length transaction with an unrelated party;
incur liens;
38
We may require additional capital in the future in order to continue to grow our
business, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all.
Our ability to grow our business and maintain our market shares in the segments in which we
operate, through the expansion of our operations and production capabilities, is dependent on
our ability to raise additional funds to implement our business strategy or to refinance our
existing debt or for working capital. There can be no assurance that such funds will be
available on favorable terms or at all. Additional debt financing may increase our financing
costs and reduce our profitability. Our financing agreements may contain terms and
conditions that may restrict our freedom to operate and manage our business, such as terms
and conditions that require us to maintain certain pre-set debt service coverage ratios and
leverage ratios and require us to use our assets, including our cash balances, as collateral for
our indebtedness. If we are unable to raise additional funds on favorable terms or at all as
and when required, our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects
could be materially adversely affected.
We may encounter difficulties in projects being developed in conjunction with
business partners or held by joint venture project companies.
On occasion, we enter into joint ventures or other arrangements with other parties as part of
our business. We currently have business ventures with third parties, including Black River
Capital Partners Fund (Food) LP (BR Fund 1) and Black River CPF (Food AustAsia CoInvestment) LP (BR Co-Fund 1, and together with BR Fund 1, the BR Group) (in respect
of AIH), Hypor (in respect of Japfa Hypor) and Aviagen (in respect of Central India Poultry
Breeders). The BR Group is managed by Black River Asset Management LLC (a subsidiary
of Cargill Inc., an unrelated third party). We expect to continue collaborating with these and
other third parties in the future. The success of these joint ventures depends significantly on
our good relationship with our joint venture partners and their satisfactory fulfillment of their
obligations. Typically, our joint venture partners contribute to our business ventures in the
form of capital contributions (such as the BR Group in respect of our dairy business) or
proprietary intellectual property (such as Hypor and Aviagen in respect of animal genetics).
See Corporate Structure and Ownership.
Joint ventures involve special risks. Our joint venture partners may:
have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours;
take actions or omit to take actions contrary to our instructions, policies or objectives or
in violation of good corporate governance practices or the law;
be unable or unwilling to fulfill their obligations under the relevant joint venture
agreements;
Depending on the extent of our interest in these joint ventures, we may not be able to control
or direct the actions of the joint venture and may need the cooperation and consent of our
partners to operate joint ventures; such consent may not always be forthcoming. For
example, the shareholders agreement for AIH requires prior concurrence between us and the
Black River funds on certain matters, such as capital expenditures, acquisitions and disposals
and the annual operating budget and business plan.
Any disagreement we may have with our joint venture partners may lead to an operational
deadlock, which could adversely affect the timing and completion of our projects. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to resolve such disagreements in a manner that will be in our
best interests, or at all, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
39
Our unrealized fair value gains or losses on biological assets may fluctuate from
period to period, are non-cash in nature and are derived from many assumptions, and
may materially adversely affect our financial results.
Our livestock are valued at fair value less costs to sell. The fair value of livestock is
determined based on either (i) the market prices as of the end of each reporting period
adjusted with reference to the age and cost of the dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine to
reflect differences in characteristics and stages of growth of the livestock, or (ii) the present
value of expected net cash flows from the livestock discounted at a current market rate,
where market prices are unavailable.
Any changes in the estimates may affect the fair value of our livestock significantly. Upward
adjustments do not generate any cash inflow for our operations. In addition, increases in
interest rates globally or in the jurisdictions we mainly operate in may impact the discount rate
used for deriving the present value of the biological assets, which in turn may negatively
affect the fair value of our livestock. As a result, our unrealized fair value gains or losses on
biological assets may fluctuate from period to period. For the years ended December 31,
2011, 2012 and 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had increases in fair
value of biological assets of US$7.5 million, US$6.6 million, US$6.3 million and
US$2.4 million, respectively.
Our unrealized fair value gains/losses on biological assets are also derived from many
assumptions. The principal valuation assumptions that we have adopted in applying the net
present value approach involve factors such as the culling rates of milking cows in their
various lactation cycles, the quality of dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine, the discount rate
and the expected average selling prices of raw milk, all of which are factors over which we
may not have full control. For further information, see Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
RISKS RELATED TO THE JURISDICTIONS IN WHICH WE OPERATE
Natural disasters and adverse weather in certain of the countries in which we operate
could disrupt the economy of such countries and our business.
Our operations, including our dairy farming, milk processing, breeding, commercial farming
and the transport and other logistics on which we are dependent may be adversely affected
and severely disrupted by climatic or geophysical conditions. Natural disasters or adverse
conditions may occur in those geographical areas in which we operate, including severe
weather, tsunamis, cyclones, tropical storms, earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions,
excessive rainfall and droughts as well as power outages or other events beyond our control.
In recent years, several particularly destructive natural disasters have occurred in the
countries in which we operate. Examples of these natural disasters include an underwater
earthquake that struck off the coast of Sumatra in December 2004, which caused a tsunami
that in turn caused widespread devastation in Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries,
Cyclone Nargis which made landfall in Myanmar in May 2008, and several major earthquakes
in China in 2008 and 2013 and in Indonesia in 2009. In particular, Indonesia is located in the
convergence zone of three major lithospheric plates and is subject to significant seismic
activity that can lead to destructive earthquakes and tsunamis, or tidal waves. A significant
earthquake or other geological disturbance or natural disaster in more populated cities and
financial centers could severely disrupt that countrys economy and undermine investor
confidence and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and/or prospects.
Adverse and severe weather conditions may also have an impact on our dairy farming,
breeding and commercial farming operations. For example, we use the Indian River breed of
DOC, a breed which has been specially tailored for tropical climate conditions, particularly in
relation to tolerance of heat and humidity. Any change in the climate may reduce the size,
40
quality, quantity and mortality of our chickens, and affect the price and demand for our
chickens and the chicken products we sell. Our Holstein Friesian dairy cows perform better in
cooler climates such as those in our farms in Shandong province in the PRC and our Gunung
Kawi farm in Malang, East Java, Indonesia. In the event heat stress is placed on our Holstein
Friesian dairy cows, yield and quality of raw milk could be affected, which may affect the price
and demand of our raw milk and processed milk products, as well as the profit margins of our
dairy business.
Labor laws in the countries in which we conduct a significant portion of our business
may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
Indonesia
Laws and regulations which facilitate the forming of labor unions, combined with weak
economic conditions, have resulted and may continue to result in labor unrest and activism in
Indonesia. In 2000, the Government issued Law No. 21 of 2000 on Labor Union (the Labor
Union Law). The Labor Union Law permits employees to form unions without employer
intervention. In March 2003, the Government enacted Law No. 13 of 2003 on Labor (the
Labor Law) which, among other things, increased the amount of severance, service and
compensation payments payable to employees upon termination of employment. If only one
labor union exists in a company, the Labor Law requires further implementation of regulations
that may substantively affect labor relations in Indonesia. The Labor Law requires bipartite
forums with participation from employers and employees and the participation of more than
50.0% of the employees of a company in order for a collective labor agreement to be
negotiated and creates procedures that are more permissive to the staging of strikes. Under
the Labor Law, employees who voluntarily resign are also entitled to payments for, among
other things, unclaimed annual leave and relocation expenses. Following the enactment,
several labor unions urged the Indonesian Constitutional Court to declare certain provisions of
the Labor Law unconstitutional and order the Government to revoke those provisions. The
Indonesian Constitutional Court declared the Labor Law valid except for certain provisions,
including relating to the right of an employer to terminate its employee who committed a
serious mistake and criminal sanctions against an employee who instigates or participates in
an illegal labor strike.
Labor unrest and activism in Indonesia could disrupt our Indonesian operations and could
affect the financial condition of Indonesian companies (including our Indonesian subsidiaries)
in general, depressing the stock prices of companies with operations in Indonesia or other
stock exchanges and the value of the Indonesian Rupiah relative to other currencies. Such
events could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.
In addition, any national or regional inflation of wages will directly and indirectly increase
operating costs and thus lead to a decrease in its profit margin.
The PRC
On June 29, 2007, the Standing Committee of the National Peoples Congress of China
enacted the Labor Contract Law, which became effective on January 1, 2008 and was
amended on December 28, 2012. The Labor Contract Law introduces specific provisions
related to fixed-term employment contracts, part-time employment, probation, consultation
with labor union and employee assemblies, employment without a written contract, dismissal
of employees, severance and collective bargaining, which together represent enhanced
enforcement of labor laws and regulations. According to the Labor Contract Law, an employer
is obliged to sign an unlimited-term labor contract with any employee who has worked for the
employer for ten consecutive years. Further, if an employee requests or agrees to renew a
fixed-term labor contract that has already been entered into twice consecutively, the resulting
contract must have an unlimited term, with certain exceptions. The employer must also pay
41
severance to an employee in nearly all instances where a labor contract, including a contract
with an unlimited term, is terminated or expires. In addition, the government has continued to
introduce various new labor-related regulations after the Labor Contract Law. Among other
things, new annual leave requirements mandate that annual leave ranging from five to 15
days is available to nearly all employees and further require that the employer compensate an
employee for any annual leave days the employee is unable to take in the amount of three
times his daily salary, subject to certain exceptions. As a result of these new measures
designed to enhance labor protection, our labor costs are expected to increase and we
cannot assure you that our employment practices do not or will not violate the Labor Contract
Law and other labor-related regulations. If we are subject to severe penalties or incur
significant liabilities in connection with labor disputes or investigations, our business and
results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
Political, economic and social conditions in the countries in which we operate may
adversely affect their economies, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our business, prospects, financial condition and/or results of operations may be adversely
affected by political and social developments that are beyond our control in Indonesia,
Myanmar, the PRC and Vietnam. Such political and social uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, the risks of frequent changes in government and government policy, internal
conflict, nationalism, expropriation, methods of taxation and tax policy, unemployment trends
and other matters that influence continued and stable business operations and consumer
confidence and spending.
Indonesia
In the last two decades, Indonesia has experienced a process of democratic change, resulting
in political and social events that have highlighted the unpredictable nature of Indonesias
changing political landscape. These events have resulted in political instability, as well as
general social and civil unrest on certain occasions in recent years. Separatist movements and
clashes between religious and ethnic groups have resulted in social and civil unrest in parts of
Indonesia. In the provinces of Aceh and Papua (formerly Irian Jaya), there have been
numerous clashes between supporters of those separatist movements and the Indonesian
military. In Papua, continued activity by separatist rebels has led to violent incidents. In the
provinces of Maluku and West Kalimantan, clashes between religious groups and ethnic groups
have produced thousands of casualties and refugees over the past several years. The
Indonesian government has attempted to resolve problems in these troubled regions with
limited success. Political and related social developments in Indonesia have been unpredictable
in the past. There can be no assurance that social and civil disturbances will not occur in the
future or that such social and civil disturbances will not directly or indirectly, materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
As a result of the economic crisis in 1997, the Indonesian government has had to rely on the
support of international agencies and governments to prevent sovereign debt defaults.
Indonesia continues to have a large fiscal deficit and a high level of sovereign debt, its foreign
currency reserves are modest, the Rupiah continues to be volatile and has poor liquidity, and
the banking sector is weak and suffers from high levels of non-performing loans. Government
funding requirements to areas affected by natural disasters, as well as increasing oil prices,
may increase the governments fiscal deficits. The inflation rate (measured by the year-on-year
change in the consumer price index) remains volatile with an annual inflation rate of 3.8% in
2011, 4.3% in 2012 and 8.4% in 2013. Interest rates in Indonesia have also been volatile in
recent years, which has had a material adverse impact on the ability of many Indonesian
companies to service their existing indebtedness. The economic difficulties Indonesia faced
during the Asian economic crisis that began in 1997 resulted in, among other things, significant
volatility in interest rates, which had a material adverse impact on the ability of many Indonesian
42
companies to service their existing indebtedness. Although the policy rate set by Bank
Indonesia was 7.5% as of July 10, 2014, as compared to a peak of 70.8% in late July 1998 for
one-month Bank Indonesia certificates, there can be no assurance that the recent improvement
in economic conditions will continue or the previous adverse economic condition in Indonesia
and the rest of Asia will not occur in the future. In particular, a loss of investor confidence in the
financial systems of emerging and other markets, or other factors, may cause increased
volatility in the international and Indonesian financial markets and inhibit or reverse the growth
of the global economy and the Indonesian economy.
The PRC
The economy of the PRC differs from the economies of most developed countries in a
number of respects, including the extent of government involvement, level of development,
growth rate and control of foreign exchange. Before its adoption of reform and open door
policies beginning in 1978, the PRC was primarily a planned economy. Since then, the PRC
government has been reforming the PRC economic system, and has also begun reforming
the government structure in recent years.
These reforms have resulted in significant economic growth and social progress. Although the
PRC government still owns a significant portion of the productive assets in the PRC,
economic reform policies since the late 1970s have emphasized autonomous enterprises and
the utilization of market mechanisms, especially where these policies apply to businesses
such as ours. Although we believe these reforms will have a positive effect on our overall and
long-term development, we cannot predict whether changes in the PRCs political, economic
and social conditions, laws, regulations and policies will have any adverse effect on our future
business, results or financial condition.
Our ability to continue to expand our business is dependent on a number of factors, including
general economic and capital market conditions and credit availability from banks or other
lenders. Recently, the PRC government articulated a need to contain the build-up of a
property bubble and may tighten its bank lending policies, including increasing interest rates
on bank loans and deposits and tightening the money supply to control growth in lending.
Stricter lending policies may, among other things, affect our and our customers ability to
obtain financing which may in turn adversely affect our growth and financial condition. We
cannot give any assurances that further measures to control growth in lending will not be
implemented in a manner that may adversely affect our growth and profitability over time.
In addition, the global economic recession and market volatility that persisted in the past two
years may continue and therefore we may not be able to sustain the growth rate we have
historically achieved.
Myanmar
Myanmar is experiencing major political and socio-economic reform following decades of
military rule. This series of reforms includes the release of long-time political prisoners and
the opening up of the country to foreign investment. There can be no assurance that
Myanmar will continue with its political and socio-economic reform policy and any return to
military rule and possible consequential political and economic sanctions on Myanmar may
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. In
addition, in recent years, there have been several deadly conflicts in Myanmar in the northern
Rakhine State between the Rohingya Muslims and Rakhine Buddhists. The conflict has led to
the displacement of thousands of people and there can be no assurance that such violence
and conflict will not occur in the future or that such social and civil disturbances will not
directly or indirectly, materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results
of operations and/or prospects.
43
44
The interpretation and application of laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which
we operate involve uncertainty.
The courts in the jurisdictions in which we operate may offer less certainty as to the judicial
outcome or a more protracted judicial process than is the case in more established
economies. Businesses can become involved in lengthy court cases over simple issues when
rulings are not clearly defined, and the poor drafting of laws and excessive delays in the legal
process for resolving issues or disputes compound such problems. Accordingly, we could
face risks such as (i) effective legal redress in the courts of such jurisdictions being more
difficult to obtain, whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation, or in an ownership
dispute, (ii) a higher degree of discretion on the part of governmental authorities and therefore
less certainty, (iii) the lack of judicial or administrative guidance on interpreting applicable
rules and regulations, (iv) inconsistencies or conflicts between and within various laws,
regulations, decrees, orders and resolutions, or (v) relative inexperience or unpredictability of
the judiciary and courts in such matters.
Enforcement of laws in some of the jurisdictions in which we operate may depend on and be
subject to the interpretation placed upon such laws by the relevant local authority, and such
authority may adopt an interpretation of an aspect of local law which differs from the advice
that has been given to us by local lawyers or even previously by the relevant local authority
itself. Furthermore, there is limited or no relevant case law providing guidance on how courts
would interpret such laws and the application of such laws to our contracts, joint operations,
licenses, license applications or other arrangements.
While we are not aware of any current specific instance of uncertainty in the interpretation and
applications of laws and regulations that would materially affect our Groups business and/or
financial position, there can be no assurance that there will be no unfavorable interpretation or
application of the laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate or that such interpretation or
application will not adversely affect our contracts, joint operations, licenses, license
applications or other legal arrangements. In certain jurisdictions, the commitment of local
businesses, government officials and agencies and the judicial system to abide by legal
requirements and negotiated agreements may be less certain and more susceptible to
revision or cancellation, and legal redress may be uncertain or delayed. If the existing body of
laws and regulations in the countries in which we operate are interpreted or applied, or
relevant discretions exercised, in an inconsistent manner by the courts or applicable
regulatory bodies, this could result in ambiguities, inconsistencies and anomalies in the
enforcement of such laws and regulations, which in turn could hinder our long-term planning
efforts and may create uncertainties in our operating environment.
The PRC
A substantial part of our dairy segment operations is conducted in the PRC and is governed
by PRC laws, rules and regulations. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes and
their interpretation by the Supreme Peoples Court. Prior court decisions may be cited for
reference, but have limited weight as precedents. Since the late 1970s, the PRC government
has significantly enhanced the PRC legislation and regulations to provide protection to
various forms of foreign investments in the PRC. However, the PRC has not developed a
fully-integrated legal system, and recently-enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently
cover all aspects of economic activity in the PRC. As many of these laws, rules and
regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions, the
interpretation and enforcement of these laws, rules and regulations involve uncertainties and
may not be as consistent and predictable as in other jurisdictions. In addition, the PRC legal
system is based in part on government policies and administrative rules that may have a
retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violations of these policies and
rules until some time after the violation. Furthermore, the legal protection available to us
under these laws, rules and regulations may be limited. Any litigation or regulatory
45
enforcement action in the PRC may be protracted and may result in substantial costs and the
diversion of resources and management attention.
Vietnam
The legal and regulatory framework in Vietnam is not as developed as in other more mature
economies. Furthermore, policy changes and interpretations of applicable laws can produce
unexpected consequences which could have a material adverse effect on domestic business
operators. Vietnam experienced severe hyperinflation and related economic difficulties in the
1980s resulting in the Vietnamese government adopting the doi moi comprehensive reform
program in 1986. The laws and regulatory apparatus affecting the economy and regulating
commercial and business activities have been developing since the doi moi policy and are in
a relatively early stage of development. As Vietnams legal system develops, it is expected
that inconsistencies and uncertainties in laws and regulations will be addressed as new laws
are interpreted and refined and older laws are repealed or updated. As such, it is difficult to
predict when Vietnams legal system will obtain the level of certainty and predictability
applicable in other jurisdictions that have a legal system that is more developed. Furthermore,
recognition and enforcement of legal rights through Vietnam courts, arbitration centres and
administrative agencies in the event of dispute is uncertain.
Terrorist attacks and terrorist activities and certain destabilizing events have led to
substantial and continuing economic and social volatility, which may materially and
adversely affect our business and/or property.
In Indonesia during the last ten years there have been numerous bombing incidents directed
towards the Indonesian government and foreign governments and public and commercial
buildings frequented by foreigners, including the Jakarta Stock Exchange Building and
Jakartas Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. There have also been other high profile
bombings in Bali in October 2002 and October 2005 and at the JW Marriott Hotel in Jakarta in
August 2003 and the JW Marriott Hotel and Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Jakarta in July 2009.
There have also been numerous bombing incidents across India in the last ten years,
including the 2006 Mumbai train bombings and at the Delhi High Court in 2011. A coordinated
series of attacks also took place in Mumbai in 2008, targeting high profile locations including
the Oberoi Trident and the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower.
In March 2014, a group of knife-wielding attackers stabbed people to death at a train station
in Kunming in the PRC.
Such terrorist activities could destabilize these countries and increase internal divisions
between their people. While in response to these terrorist attacks, the various governments
have institutionalized certain security improvements and undertaken certain legal reforms
which seek to better implement anti-terrorism measures and some suspected key terrorist
figures have been arrested and tried, there can be no assurance that further terrorist acts will
not occur in the future. Future acts of terrorism, violent acts and adverse political
developments may have a material adverse effect on us, our business, financial condition,
results of operations and/or prospects.
Domestic, regional or global economic changes may adversely affect our business.
The global economic crisis that began in 2008 has resulted in the global financial markets
experiencing significant turbulence originating from the liquidity shortfalls in the U.S. credit
and sub-prime residential mortgage markets, which have caused liquidity problems resulting
in bankruptcy for many institutions, and unprecedented major government bailout packages
for banks and other institutions. Any further government intervention, restrictions or regulation
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial performance, results of
operations and prospects. The global economic crisis has also resulted in a shortage in the
46
availability of credit, a reduction in foreign direct investment, the failure of global financial
institutions, a drop in the value of global stock markets, a slowdown in global economic
growth and a drop in demand for certain commodities.
This economic situation is further exacerbated by the recent debt crises in the Eurozone
(namely in Greece, Portugal, Spain, Ireland and Italy) and the potential impact of these crises
on the rest of Europe and the world. The global financial markets have also recently
experienced volatility as a result of the downgrade of U.S. sovereign debt and concerns over
the debt crises in the Eurozone. Uncertainty over the outcome of the U.S. and Eurozone
governments financial support and quantitative easing programs and worries about sovereign
finances generally are ongoing. It is difficult to predict the extent to which global markets are
affected by these conditions and the extent and nature of such effects on our markets,
products and business. Any prolonged downturn in general economic conditions would
present risks for our business, such as a potential slowdown in our sales to customers.
Although there are signs that the financial markets and economies in Singapore, Asia and the
global economy may be improving, whether a full and sustainable recovery will occur, and the
pace of the recovery, if any, or whether the global economy or parts of it will relapse into
recessionary conditions, remains uncertain. Any adverse economic developments in the
markets that we operate in or that have an indirect impact on the demand for our products
and our business could have material and adverse effects on our business, results of
operations, financial performance and prospects. In addition, the general lack of available
credit and lack of confidence in the financial markets associated with any market downturn
could adversely affect our access to capital as well as our suppliers and customers access to
capital, which in turn could adversely affect our ability to fund our working capital
requirements and capital expenditures.
Any limitations on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us could have a
material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.
We are a holding company incorporated in Singapore and operate a significant part of our
businesses through our operating subsidiaries in Indonesia, the PRC, Vietnam, India and
Myanmar. Therefore, the availability of funds to pay dividends to our Shareholders depends
upon dividends received from these subsidiaries. If our subsidiaries incur debts or losses,
such indebtedness or loss may impair their ability to pay dividends or other distributions to us.
As a result, our ability to pay dividends to our Shareholders will be restricted. Local laws and
regulations have differing requirements and restrictions on the ability of a company to pay
dividends to its shareholders.
The PRC
The principal laws and regulations governing distributions of dividends of foreign holding
companies include the PRC Company Law (
), the Foreign Investment
Enterprise Law (
) and the Administrative Rules under the Foreign
Investment Enterprise Law (
).
Under these laws and regulations, the Companys PRC subsidiaries, as wholly foreigninvested enterprises in China (WFOE), may pay dividends only out of their accumulated
after-tax profits, if any, determined based on PRC accounting principles, which differ in many
aspects from generally accepted accounting principles in other jurisdictions, including
International Financial Reporting Standards. The PRC laws and regulations also require
WFOEs to set aside at least 10% of their accumulated profits each year, if any, as statutory
reserve funds, unless such reserves have reached 50% of the registered capital of the
respective WFOE. These statutory reserves are not available for distribution as cash
dividends. Profits of a WFOE shall not be distributed before the losses in the previous
accounting years have been made up. Any undistributed profit for the previous accounting
years may be distributed together with the distributable profit for the current accounting year.
47
In addition, restrictive covenants in bank credit facilities or other agreements that we or our
subsidiaries have entered into or may enter into in the future may also restrict the ability of our
subsidiaries to provide capital or declare dividends to us and our ability to receive
distributions. For instance, under the facility agreement entered between our Groups PRC
dairy farm subsidiaries and (1) Rabobank Nederland Beijing Branch, (2) DBS Bank (China)
Limited, Tianjin Branch and (3) PT Bank Mandiri (Persero) TBK Shanghai Branch on
December 20, 2013, our Groups PRC dairy farm subsidiaries shall not declare, distribute or
make any dividends or payments to their shareholders until the ratio of the combined
Financial Indebtedness (as defined therein) of these subsidiaries to their combined EBITDA is
equal to or lower than 1x. The aforementioned restrictions on the availability and usage of our
major source of funding may impact our ability to pay dividends to our Shareholders. See
Material Indebtedness.
In addition, under the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC (
) and
the Regulation on the Implementation of the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC
(
), which took effect on January 1, 2008, dividends payable
by a foreign-invested enterprise to its foreign corporate investors who are not deemed as a
PRC resident enterprise are subject to a 10% withholding tax, unless such foreign investors
jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with the PRC that provides for a different
withholding tax arrangement. See Appendix CRegulationSummary of Relevant Chinese
Laws and Regulations. In our case, such withholding tax has historically amounted to 5%, as
a result of tax treaty arrangements.
Vietnam
Circular 186/2010/TT-BTC (Circular 186), issued by Vietnams Ministry of Finance and
which took effect on January 3, 2011, restricts the remittance of profits by our Vietnamese
subsidiaries to our Company. Circular 186 restricts the remittance of profits by companies
established in Vietnam to foreign shareholders to once each calendar year and only if the
Vietnamese company has paid corporate income taxes in Vietnam and has no accumulated
losses. The maximum allowable amount of remittance would be calculated based on the
declared dividends from the total net profits after tax for the particular financial year in the
Vietnamese companys audited financial statements, together with any declared dividends of
previous years which have not been remitted, less the amount of investment that the foreign
investor has committed to re-invest in Vietnam and less any costs or expenses incurred by or
for the foreign parent company which the Vietnamese subsidiary may have paid. The
company or foreign shareholder must file a notice with the tax authorities seven business
days prior to a remittance.
Government control of currency conversion may have a material adverse effect on
your investment.
At present, the RMB, VND, Burmese Kyat and INR are not freely convertible to other foreign
currencies, and conversion and remittance of foreign currencies are subject to the relevant
foreign exchange regulations. Under current PRC laws and regulations, payments of current
account items, including profit distributions may be made in foreign currencies without prior
approval from State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), but are subject to
procedural requirements including presenting relevant documentary evidence of such
transactions and conducting such transactions at designated foreign exchange banks within
the PRC that have the licenses to carry out foreign exchange business. Strict foreign
exchange control continues to apply to capital account transactions. These transactions must
be approved by or registered with SAFE or a local branch and repayment of loan principal
and investment in negotiable instruments are also subject to restrictions.
Under our current corporate structure, our source of funds will consist of dividend payments
from our subsidiaries in the PRC, Vietnam, Myanmar and India denominated in RMB, VND,
Burmese Kyat and INR respectively. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet all of
48
our foreign currency obligations or to remit payments out of these countries. If our
subsidiaries in the PRC are unable to obtain SAFE approval to repay loans to our Company,
or if future changes in relevant regulations place restrictions on the ability of the subsidiaries
to remit dividend payments to our Company, our Companys liquidity and ability to satisfy its
third-party payment obligations, and its ability to distribute dividends in respect of the Shares,
could be materially and adversely affected.
Regulation of direct investment and loans by offshore holding companies may delay or
limit us from using the net proceeds from the Offering to make additional capital
contributions or loans to our major overseas subsidiaries.
Any capital contributions or loans that we, as an offshore entity, make to our overseas
subsidiaries, including from the net proceeds from the Offering, may be subject to foreign
direct investment regulations in the respective jurisdictions.
For example, any of our loans to our PRC subsidiaries cannot exceed the difference between
the total amount of investment our PRC subsidiaries are approved to make under relevant
PRC laws and the registered capital of our major PRC subsidiaries, and such loans must be
registered with the local branch of SAFE. In addition, our capital contributions to our major
PRC subsidiaries must be approved by the Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) or its local
counterpart. We may also not be able to make long-term loans to our Vietnamese
subsidiaries unless we make additional contributions to the investment capital of these
subsidiaries. Additional contributions require the amendment of the investment certificates of
these subsidiaries and prior approval from the Ministry of Planning and Investment in
Vietnam.
We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain these approvals on a timely basis, or at
all. If we fail to obtain such approvals, our ability to make equity contributions or provide loans
to our overseas subsidiaries or to fund their operations may be negatively affected, which
may adversely affect our liquidity and ability to fund their working capital and expansion
projects and meet their obligations and commitments and would have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR OFFERING AND INVESTMENT IN OUR SHARES
Our Directors and Substantial Shareholders will retain significant control over our
Company after the Offering, which will allow them to influence the outcome of matters
submitted to Shareholders for approval.
Upon the completion of the Offering, our Directors1, Substantial Shareholders and their
associates will beneficially own in aggregate approximately 83.84% of our Companys postOffering issued Shares (assuming the Over-allotment Option is exercised in full). Therefore,
these persons will be able to exercise significant influence over matters requiring
Shareholders approval, including the election of directors and the approval of significant
corporate transactions. If they act together, they will also have veto power with respect to any
shareholder action or approval requiring a majority vote except where they are required by the
rules of the Listing Manual to abstain from voting. Such concentration of ownership may also
have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our Company, or
otherwise discourage a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of our Company
through corporate actions such as merger or takeover attempts notwithstanding that the same
may be synergistic or beneficial to our Group or our Shareholders.
49
have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context
of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Offering Shares and the effect the
Offering Shares will have on its overall investment portfolio;
have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in
the Offering Shares, including where the currency of the Offering Shares is different from
the prospective investors currency;
be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible
scenarios for economic and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to
bear the applicable risks.
Any future sales of our Shares by our Substantial Shareholders following the Offering
could adversely affect our Share price.
Following the Offering, we will have 1,727,470,391 issued Shares, of which 1,055,082,615
and 282,527,085 Shares, or 61.08% and 16.35% of our outstanding Shares, will be owned by
the Scuderia Trust and the Capital Two Trust, respectively (assuming the Over-allotment
Option is not exercised) Our Shares will be traded on the Main Board of the SGX-ST following
listing. For varying periods after the Listing Date, we and certain of our shareholders are
restricted from selling Shares. For more information, see Plan of Distribution.
Any future sale or an increased availability of our Shares may have a downward pressure on
our Share price. The sale of a significant number of Shares in the public market after the
Offering, including by our Controlling Shareholders, or the issuance of further new Shares by
us, or the perception that such sales may occur, could materially affect the market price of our
Shares. These factors also affect our ability to sell additional equity securities at a time and at
a price favorable to us. Except as otherwise described in the section entitled Plan of
DistributionNo Sales of Similar Securities and Lock-up in this Prospectus, there are no
restrictions on the ability of our Substantial Shareholders to dispose of their shareholdings.
There has been no prior market for our Shares.
Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for our Shares. Although we have
applied for our Shares to be listed on the Main Board of the SGX-ST, there is no assurance
that an active public market for our Shares will develop or, if it develops, be sustained, or that
the market price of our Shares will not decline below the Offering Price.
The Offering Price of our Shares may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading
market. You may not be able to resell our Shares at the Offering Price or at a price that is
attractive to you. The trading prices of our Shares could be subject to fluctuations in response
to variations in our results of operations, changes in general economic conditions, changes in
accounting principles or other developments affecting us, our customers or our competitors,
changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, the operating and stock price
performance of other companies and other events or factors, many of which are beyond our
control. Volatility in the price of our Shares may be caused by factors outside of our control or
may be unrelated or disproportionate to our results of operations.
50
Although it is intended that our Shares will remain listed on the SGX-ST, there is no
guarantee of the continued listing of our Shares.
Our Share price may fluctuate following the Offering.
The market price of our Shares may fluctuate as a result of, among others, the following
factors, some of which are beyond our control:
changes in market valuations and share prices of companies with similar business to our
Group which are listed and/or based in Singapore or the countries in which we operate;
changes in conditions affecting the industry, the general economic conditions or stock
market sentiments or other events or factors;
negative publicity involving our Company, any of our Directors, Executive Officers or
Substantial Shareholders, whether or not it is justified. Some examples are unsuccessful
attempts in joint ventures, takeovers or involvement in insolvency proceedings.
There are relatively few agri-livestock companies listed on the SGX-ST and as a result there
may be greater volatility in the price of our Shares due to various factors, including a lack of
knowledge on the part of investors in evaluating companies in this sector. A decline in any of
the factors listed above could adversely affect the price of our Shares.
Investors in our Shares will suffer immediate dilution, and may experience further
dilution, in the net asset value of our Shares.
The Offering Price of our Shares is higher than our net asset value per Share after adjusting
for the estimated net proceeds from the Offering and based on the post-Offering share
capital. If we were liquidated immediately following the Offering, each investor subscribing to
the Offering may receive less than the price paid for their Shares. Please refer to the section
Dilution of this Prospectus for details.
Singapore law contains provisions that could discourage a take-over of our Company.
The Singapore Code on Take-overs and Mergers and Sections 138, 139 and 140 of the
Securities and Futures Act (collectively, the Singapore Take-over and Merger Provisions)
contain certain provisions that may delay, deter or prevent a future take-over or change in
control of our Company for so long as our Shares are listed for quotation on the SGX-ST.
Except with the consent of the Securities Industry Council, any person acquiring an interest,
whether by a series of transactions over a period of time or otherwise, either on his own or
together with parties acting in concert with him, in 30% or more of our voting Shares is
required to extend a take-over offer for our remaining voting Shares in accordance with the
51
Singapore Take-over and Merger Provisions. Except with the consent of the Securities
Industry Council, such a take-over offer is also required to be made if a person holding
between 30% and 50% (both inclusive) of our voting Shares (either on his own or together
with parties acting in concert with him) acquires additional voting Shares representing more
than 1% of our voting Shares in any six-month period. While the Singapore Code on Takeovers and Mergers seeks to ensure an equality of treatment among shareholders, its
provisions could substantially impede the ability of shareholders to benefit from a change of
control and, as a result, may adversely affect the market price of our Shares and their ability
to realize any benefit from a potential change of control.
We may not be able to pay dividends in the future.
Our ability to declare dividends in relation to the Shares will depend on, amongst others, our
operating results, financial condition, other cash requirements including capital expenditures,
the terms of borrowing arrangements, the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us,
other contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our Directors. This, in turn,
depends on our strategy, the successful implementation of our strategy and on financial,
competitive, regulatory, general economic conditions and other factors that may be specific to
us or specific to our industry, many of which are beyond our control.
In addition, our Company is a holding company and we operate our business through our
subsidiaries. Therefore, our ability to pay dividends will be affected by the ability of our
subsidiaries to declare and pay us dividends or other distributions. The ability of our
subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends to us will be dependent on the cash income of and
cash available to such subsidiary and the operating results, financial condition, other cash
requirements including capital expenditures, the terms of borrowing arrangements and other
contractual restrictions of the relevant subsidiary and may be restricted under applicable law
or regulation.
For example, the relevant subsidiary may need approvals from tax and other regulatory
authorities before payment or repatriation of dividends or other distributions can be made,
which may not be forthcoming in a timely manner or at all. Please also see the section entitled
Risk FactorsRisks Related to the Jurisdictions in Which We OperateAny limitations on
the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us could have a material adverse effect on
our ability to conduct our business of this Prospectus. If any of our subsidiaries are unable or
are restricted in their ability to declare and pay dividends or other distributions to us, our
ability to pay dividends on our Shares may be adversely affected. In addition, covenants in
loan documents of the subsidiaries may restrict the ability of these subsidiaries to declare
and/or pay dividends, which in turn could have an adverse impact on our ability to declare and
pay dividends to our Shareholders. Please also see the section entitled Risk FactorsRisks
Relating to our Business and OperationsWe have substantial indebtedness and may be
unable to satisfy certain covenants under our senior notes or other debt facilities, which could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
and Dividends of this Prospectus for further details.
Shareholders may not be able to participate in future offerings or certain other equity
issues we may make.
In the event that we issue new Shares, we will be under no obligation to offer those Shares to
our existing Shareholders at the time of issue, except where we elect to conduct a rights
issue. However, in electing to conduct a rights issue or certain other equity issues, we may be
subject to regulations as to the procedure to be followed in making such rights offering
available to our existing Shareholders or in disposing of such rights for the benefit of such
Shareholders and making the net proceeds available to them. We may also choose not to
offer such rights to the holders of our Shares having an address in a jurisdiction outside
Singapore. Accordingly, holders of our Shares may be unable to participate in future offerings
of our Shares and may experience dilution of their shareholdings as such.
52
USE OF PROCEEDS
Based on the Offering Price of S$0.80 for each Offering Share, the net proceeds from the
Offering (after deducting underwriting and selling commissions and estimated offering
expenses payable by us, excluding any discretionary incentive fees) will be approximately
S$187.3 million (US$150.6 million) assuming the Over-allotment Option is not exercised and
S$216.4 million (US$174.0 million) assuming the Over-allotment Option is fully exercised.
We intend to use our net proceeds from the Offering primarily for the following purposes:
investment in our China dairy business and the construction of a second five-farm hub in
Inner Mongolia;
investment in our animal protein business in our target markets (including our swine
business in Vietnam, poultry business outside Indonesia and beef business in the PRC);
and

As at the Listing Date, our Group has the following facilities in place, which (including any
interest thereon) will be repaid or prepaid in full after the Listing Date out of the net proceeds:
a credit facility obtained by the Company from Credit Suisse AG, Singapore Branch on
April 9, 2012, for up to US$25 million, which was subsequently increased to
US$40 million. Proceeds from the facility were to finance the Companys working capital,
general investments and corporate requirements. See Material IndebtednessBank
Facilities; and
a bridge loan facility obtained by the Company from Coperatieve Centrale RaiffeisenBoerenleenbank B.A. (trading as Rabobank International), Singapore Branch
(Rabobank Singapore) on April 10, 2014 for US$30 million. This facility was fully
drawn down on June 30, 2014 and we used the proceeds from the facility to finance the
Companys working capital and general corporate requirements. See Material
IndebtednessBank Facilities.
The foregoing represents our best estimate of our allocation of our proceeds from the Offering
based on our current plans and estimates regarding our anticipated expenditures. Actual
expenditures may vary from these estimates, and we may find it necessary or advisable to
re-allocate our net proceeds within the categories described above or to use portions of our
net proceeds for other purposes. In the event that we decide to reallocate our net proceeds
from the Offering for other purposes, we will publicly announce our intention to do so through
a SGXNET announcement to be posted on the Internet at the SGX-ST website,
http://www.sgx.com.
53
Pending the use of our net proceeds in the manner described above, we may also use our net
proceeds for our working capital, place the funds in fixed deposits with banks and financial
institutions or use the funds to invest in short-term money market instruments, as our
Directors may deem appropriate in their absolute discretion.
We intend to make periodic announcements on the use of proceeds as and when material
amounts of Offering proceeds are disbursed, and provide a status report on the use of
proceeds in our annual report.
The announcement will state whether the use of the proceeds is in accordance with the stated
use and the percentage allocated disclosed above.
In the opinion of our Directors, no minimum amount must be raised by the Offering.
Expenses
We estimate that the expenses in connection with the Offering, and the application for listing,
including the underwriting and selling commissions (but excluding discretionary incentive fees)
and all other incidental expenses relating to the Offering will be approximately S$11.1 million
(US$8.9 million) assuming the Over-allotment Option is not exercised and approximately
S$11.8 million (US$9.5 million) assuming the Over-allotment Option is fully exercised. These
expenses are payable by us in proportion to the number of Offering Shares issued or sold by
us, respectively, in the Offering except for regulatory fees, SGX-ST listing and processing fees
which are payable by us. The breakdown of these expenses is set out below:

DIVIDENDS
Statements contained in this section that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause
actual results to differ materially from those which may be forecasted and projected. Under no
circumstances should the inclusion of such information herein be regarded as a
representation, warranty or prediction with respect to the accuracy of the underlying
assumptions by us, the Joint Global Coordinators, Joint Issue Managers, Joint Bookrunners
and Underwriters, or any other person. Prospective investors are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.
See Notice to InvestorsForward-looking Statements.
Past Dividends
Our Company has not paid dividends in the past.
Dividend Policy
We do not have a fixed dividend policy. All dividends we declare must be approved by an
ordinary resolution of our shareholders at a general meeting, except that our Board of
Directors may declare interim dividends without the approval of our shareholders. We are not
permitted to pay dividends in excess of the amount recommended by our Board of Directors.
Any dividends we pay will be out of our profits as permitted under Singapore law. In addition,
we depend largely upon the receipt of dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries,
associates and material entities to pay the dividends on the Shares.
When making recommendations on the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any,
our Companys Board of Directors will consider, among other things:
the general economic and business conditions and other factors deemed relevant by our
Board of Directors and statutory restrictions on the payment of dividends.
Payment of cash dividends and distributions, if any, will be declared in Singapore dollars and
paid in Singapore dollars to CDP on behalf of shareholders who maintain, either directly or
through depository agents, securities accounts with CDP.

DILUTION
New investors subscribing for and/or purchasing the Offering Shares at the Offering Price will
experience an immediate dilution in net asset value per Share immediately after the
completion of the Offering. Net asset value per Share is determined by subtracting our total
liabilities and minority interests from our total assets, and dividing the difference by the
number of Shares deemed to be outstanding on the date as of which the book value is
determined. Our net asset value per Share as of March 31, 2014 was S$0.65 per Share (as
adjusted for the Share Split (as defined herein)).
The Offering Price of S$0.80 per Offering Share exceeds the pro forma net asset value of
S$0.66 per Share as of March 31, 2014 (after adjusting for the Share Split and the issuance
of the Offering Shares in the Offering) by approximately 20.3 per cent. Since the Offering
Price per Share exceeds the net asset value per Share after the Offering, there is an
immediate dilution to investors in the Offering. Such dilution is illustrated in the table below:

Exchange Controls
Singapore
Currently, no foreign exchange control restrictions are enforced in Singapore.
Indonesia
There are no foreign exchange controls in Indonesia. Law No. 24 Year 1999 concerning the
Flow of Foreign Exchange and Exchange Rate System (Law No. 24/1999) provides that a
person may freely hold, use and transfer foreign exchange. However, pursuant to Law
No. 24/1999, Bank Indonesia imposes reporting requirements for the movement of assets and
foreign financial liabilities between residents and non-residents including the movement of
assets and foreign financial liabilities among nationals. Bank Indonesia Regulation
No. 14/21/PBI/2012 dated December 21, 2012 concerning Foreign Exchange Activities
Reporting holds corporate bodies and other bodies domiciled in Indonesia responsible for
submitting reports on foreign exchange activities whether for their own interests or those of
other parties. Information to be filed with Bank Indonesia includes: (i) all trading activities
involving goods, services, and other transactions between Indonesian and non-Indonesian
parties whether denominated in Indonesian or other currency; (ii) the balance of their foreign
financial assets and/or any foreign financial obligations by Indonesian residents both on their
own or a customers account whether denominated in Indonesian or other currency; and
(iii) any plan to secure or draw down an offshore loan. Indonesian resident is defined as an
individual, legal or other entity that is domiciled or intends to be domiciled, in Indonesia for at
least one year.
59
There is no restriction for Indonesian residents to open and hold offshore accounts.
China
A discussion on the relevant foreign exchange control laws is set out in Appendix C
RegulationSummary of Relevant Chinese Laws and RegulationsForeign Exchange.
Vietnam
Vietnam has historically imposed exchange control mechanisms designed to limit foreign
currency outflows, generally requiring the use of the Vietnamese Dong in domestic
transactions and attempting to channel foreign currencies into its banking system. The State
Bank of Vietnam primarily administers Vietnams foreign exchange control policy. In 2005, the
Standing Committee of National Assembly of Vietnam introduced Foreign Exchange
Ordinance No. 28/2005/PL-UBTVQH11 which was amended by Ordinance
No. 06/2013/UBTVQH13 on March 18, 2013 (together, Foreign Exchange Ordinance)
intended to stimulate the foreign exchange market by liberalizing current transactions control
and gradually reducing capital transactions control.
Under the Foreign Exchange Ordinance, any person or organization may exchange
Vietnamese Dong into foreign currency at credit institutions licensed to provide foreign
exchange services in Vietnam, provided that such person or organizations intention of using
foreign currency is permitted by Foreign Exchange Ordinance and they can provide the
relevant credit institutions with appropriate supporting documents. Foreign currencies may be
freely exchanged into Vietnamese Dong by individuals at licensed credit institutions.
In order to offer securities denominated in a foreign currency in a foreign jurisdiction, a
company resident in Vietnam is required to open a foreign currency issued securities capital
bank account at a licensed credit institution in Vietnam. Any receipt or payment relating to the
offering must be made through this account in accordance with the foreign exchange
regulations in effect.
For the purpose of investment in Vietnam, foreign direct investors including direct
foreign-owned enterprises and foreign parties in business co-operation contracts are required
to open capital contribution accounts at licensed commercial banks in Vietnam. All financial
transactions relating to the investment of foreign direct investors in Vietnam, including but not
limited to the capital investment into Vietnam, borrowing and repayment of foreign term loans
and after-tax profit remittance out of Vietnam, must be performed via such accounts.
Furthermore, foreign direct investors may repatriate their profits only if (i) they have fully
discharged their financial obligations to Vietnamese government, and (ii) they have submitted
to the competent tax authorities of Vietnam their audited financial statements and tax
finalization that does not contain any accumulated losses after carrying forward losses in
accordance with Vietnams corporate income tax laws. Foreign-invested enterprises and
foreign parties to business cooperation contracts may use their Vietnam dong earnings to buy
foreign currencies at licensed credit institutions and repatriate within 30 days after buying
foreign currencies. The investors must notify the tax authorities of such repatriation at least
seven business days prior to the repatriation.
India
A discussion on the relevant foreign exchange control laws is set out in Appendix C
RegulationSummary of Relevant Indian Laws and RegulationsCertain Foreign
Investment and Foreign Exchange Laws.
Myanmar
The Foreign Exchange Management Law (FEML) is the primarily legislation regulating
foreign exchange controls in Myanmar.
60
Pursuant to Section 7 of the FEML, foreign cash and other payment instruments can only be
transferred between the State and other countries according to the regulations issued by the
Central Bank. According to Section 8 of the FEML, other transfers may only be made
through person who has a foreign exchange licence. It follows therefore that transactions
between private banks and a company can be done through a bank issued with a foreign
exchange licence. This essentially grants the Central Bank of Myanmar (CBM) with control
over foreign currencies in Myanmar and foreign payment instruments such as loans; such
remit being consistent with the CBMs broad responsibility to monitor and regulate the
transmission of money in and out of Myanmar.
Notwithstanding the above, Sections 24 and 25 of the FEML also provide that there should be
no impediments to the repayment of ordinary transactions. Section 2(l) of the FEML defines
ordinary transactions as:
(a)
(b)
payments to be made as interest on loans and as net income from other investments;
(c)
(d)
Currently, there are no published CBM regulations specifically relating to the transfer of
foreign cash and other payment instruments. However, in practice CBM approval is currently
required for any foreign loan into Myanmarapproval being required for both the drawdown
and each repayment of such loans.
With respect to foreign loans the CBMs general position is that it will not permit foreign
entities to loan monies to Myanmar companies unless such foreign entity and such Myanmar
company are related companies. In addition, in practice obtaining approval from the
Directorate of Investments and Company Administration (DICA) would also be required
even though DICA is unlikely to object if CBM has given its approval.
With respect to the transfer of foreign money by a company holding a MIC Permit, the Foreign
Investment Law (FIL) requires the submission of Form 13 (Application to Transfer Foreign
Currency) to the Myanmar Investment Commission (MIC). However, due to the CBMs
broad responsibility for the transfer of money in and out of Myanmar, the MIC will, in practice,
typically seek CBM approval. In turn, the MIC would unlikely object to the Form 13 Application
if CBM has given its approval.

EBITDA is not a standard measure under FRS. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or construed as an
alternative to cash flows, net income or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of operating performance,
liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities. EBITDA does not account for
taxes, interest expense or other non-operating cash expenses. In evaluating EBITDA, we believe that investors should
consider, among other things, the components of EBITDA such as revenues and operating expenses and the amount by
which EBITDA exceeds capital expenditures and other charges. EBITDA presented herein may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures presented by other companies. You should not compare EBITDA presented by us to EBITDA
presented by other companies because not all companies use the same definition. You should also note that EBITDA as
presented herein is calculated differently from Consolidated EBITDA as defined and used in the Indenture governing our

FRS 41 is an accounting standard that requires us to value our dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine measured on initial
recognition and at the end of the reporting year. The fair value movements from year-on-year under FRS 41 are non-cash
items and therefore are not used by us when measuring our Groups operational performance because they are not
reflective of the underlying business. We believe that the inclusion of this adjusted profitability measure (excluding FRS 41
fair value changes and the taxes thereon) is useful to investors because it provides a means of evaluating our Groups
operating performance and results from period to period on a comparable basis not otherwise apparent when the impact of
the changes in fair value of biological assets under FRS 41 is included. Profit from continuing operations excluding
increases in fair value of biological assets, net of tax is not a standard measure under FRS and should not be considered
in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, net income or any other measure of performance or as an

raising high-quality dairy cows, and as of March 31, 2014, we had 5,743 heads of cattle in
Indonesia, with 2,855 milking cows. We produced over 26,000 tons of raw milk in Indonesia in
2013, and our average milk yield per milking cow for 2013 was 9.1 tonnes per year.
Our dairy segment accounted for 4.5% of our total revenue for the year ended
December 31, 2013 and 7.3% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31,
2014.
Animal ProteinWe produce multiple high-quality animal proteins (poultry, swine, beef and
aquaculture); as well as high-quality animal feed, across our target markets. Our animal
protein operations are vertically integrated and cover the entire value chain of animal protein
production, from animal feed to breeding and commercial farms to slaughtering livestock and
supplying the raw materials for our downstream consumer food segment (see Consumer
Food). Our animal protein operations include the following:
In our poultry business, we operate over 70 breeding farms and over 30 hatcheries to
produce day-old-chicks (DOCs), primarily in Indonesia, as well as in Vietnam,
Myanmar and India. In 2013 we sold almost 600 million DOCs across our markets. In
2013, we sold approximately 7% of our DOCs produced in Indonesia internally to our
own commercial farms for growing out, with the remainder sold to contract farms or
third parties. We have over 10,000 commercial farms in our network, most of which are
contract farms that are owned and operated by local farmers who grow out the chicks on
our behalf;
In the beef business, we are one of the largest beef cattle feedlot operators in Indonesia
and the largest importer of live beef cattle into Indonesia. We breed, fatten and process
beef cattle and have four feedlots in Indonesia with a total production capacity of
165,000 heads of cattle per year. We also have cattle breeding operations in Australia,
where our stations can hold approximately 45,000 heads of cattle at any one time. We
import the cattle bred at our stations in Australia to Indonesia for fattening and
processing, and we ship approximately 12,000 heads of cattle per year from our
Australian operations to our feedlots in Indonesia;
Our animal protein segment accounted for 87.0% of our total revenue for the year ended
December 31, 2013 and 85.9% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31,
2014.
Consumer FoodWe use the animal protein products that we produce in-house as raw
materials for our downstream consumer food segment, and we leverage the traceability of
these products to position our processed foods as high-quality and reliable consumer food
brands. We make ambient-temperature and chilled/frozen food products from chicken, beef
and seafood for the Indonesian market. Our consumer food segment accounted for 8.4% of
our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 6.8% of our total revenue for the
three months ended March 31, 2014.
67
In 2011, 2012 and 2013, our total revenues amounted to US$2,029.8 million, US$2,321.8
million and US$2,697.3 million, respectively, while our profit from continuing operations, net of
tax amounted to US$79.5 million, US$110.4 million and US$81.4 million, respectively. For the
three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2014, our total revenues amounted to US$675.8
million and US$690.1 million, respectively, while our profit from continuing operations, net of
tax amounted to US$25.4 million and US$22.0 million, respectively.
Basis of Presentation
We have included in this Prospectus our audited combined financial statements as of and for
the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and our unaudited interim combined
financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2014, which
have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act,
Chapter 50 and FRS. Our audited combined financial statements as of and for the years
ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and unaudited combined financial statements as
of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2014 have been presented in a
manner similar to a pooling-of-interests method to give retrospective application to
transactions involving entities under common control, as a result of a series of transactions to
effect our group restructuring. See Note 1.2 to our audited combined financial statements
included elsewhere in this Prospectus and Corporate Structure and Ownership. Our
unaudited combined financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31,
2014 include the results of operations and financial position of Japfa Comfeed Myanmar Pte
Ltd, which was formed under a joint venture agreement dated May 9, 2014 with retrospective
application from December 3, 2013, pursuant to which we own an 85.0% shareholding in
Japfa Comfeed Myanmar Pte Ltd. Our audited combined financial statements and unaudited
interim combined financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, our reporting currency.
Our functional currency is the Singapore dollar, as it reflects the primary economic
environment in which our Group operates, and our financial statements are translated into our
reporting currency at the end of each reporting year at the prevailing Singapore dollar to
U.S. dollar exchange rate. For further information, see Note 2 to our audited combined
financial statements included elsewhere in this Prospectus.
Factors Affecting our Business, Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We outline below a number of factors which have had important effects on our results of
operations and which we expect will continue to impact our financial performance in the
future.
Macroeconomic Factors and General Economic Conditions in Indonesia, China,
Vietnam, India and Myanmar
Our sales volumes of dairy, animal feed, poultry, cattle, swine and consumer foods depend
primarily on consumer demand for our products and for the end products of our customers.
Consumer demand for our products depends in large part on macroeconomic conditions in
our target markets, Indonesia, Vietnam, China, India and Myanmar. For the year ended
December 31, 2013, we generated 81.9%, 10.7%, 3.5% and 2.9% of our revenue from
customers in Indonesia, Vietnam, China and India, respectively. For the three months ended
March 31, 2014, we generated 76.7%, 10.4%, 5.7% and 3.3% of our revenue from customers
in Indonesia, Vietnam, China and India, respectively. Accordingly, our results of operations
may be affected by significant changes in economic and political developments in these
countries, which could affect the demand for and pricing of our products in these markets.
Significantly, as GDP per capita in our target markets grows, we expect the concomitant
increase in purchasing power in these markets to increase the proportion of dairy and protein
consumption. Similarly, if GDP per capita decreases, consumer purchasing power may also
decrease, which we expect would slow down the growth in or decrease consumption of
animal proteins. For consumers in Indonesia and other markets in which we operate, poultry
is a staple protein, and their purchasing power for animal proteins such as poultry and beef
68
directly correlates to the countrys GDP per capita growth and is affected significantly by
inflation and/or depreciation of the local currency. In Indonesia, we expect protein
consumption to consist primarily of poultry and beef, given the halal dietary requirements of a
significant majority of the Indonesian population. In all of our markets, sales volumes of
poultry, cattle and swine are also affected by changes in consumer preferences, including
changes in nutritional guidelines or health advisories. We also expect changes in demand for
our animal feed to move broadly in tandem with changes in macro-economic conditions and
with demand for our animal proteins in our target markets.
Prices and Availability of Raw Materials
For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and the three months ended
March 31, 2014, raw material costs constituted approximately 84.0%, 83.7%, 84.5% and
88.3%, respectively, of our total cost of sales, with raw material costs for our animal protein
segment comprising 77.4%, 75.2%, 77.6% and 82.0% of our total cost of sales for these
periods. Corn and soybean meal constitute the substantial majority of the raw materials that
we require for the production of our animal feeds. In 2013, approximately 40% of our corn and
100% of our soybean meal requirements in Indonesia were met by imports. We purchase the
majority of our corn and soybean meal on the spot market, in line with market practice in
Indonesia, Myanmar, India and Vietnam but, depending on market conditions, we may also
enter into forward purchase contracts. For soybean meal, we rely entirely on imports, as
soybean meal is not available in Indonesia. We expect demand for corn and soybean meal
imports in Indonesia to remain high in 2014. The availability and prices of these commodities
are influenced by various factors, including production levels, weather conditions, epidemic
diseases, global demand for such materials, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar and Rupiah
exchange rate (since imported corn and soybean meal are typically priced in U.S. dollars),
and changes in prices of other commodities such as crude oil. Local corn prices have
historically adjusted to global corn prices. For our China dairy segment, the concentrates we
use for our feed, which primarily consist of corn, soybean meal and cotton seed meal, are
readily accessible commodities in China. The forages we use for our feed mainly consist of
corn silage, grass forage and alfalfa, and their availability and price are more dependent on
local market conditions and can fluctuate accordingly. Corn silage can only be harvested once
a year, during August and September. To mitigate against any interruption of our forages
supply, we generally store a years supply of corn silage and at least two months supply of
alfalfa.
Any significant changes in the availability or the prices of our raw materials are likely to affect
our cost of sales. We have in the past been able to pass on increases in raw material costs to
our customers in certain of our business areas. In our animal feed business in Indonesia, for
example, we are generally able to pass on increases in the cost of raw materials (including
corn and soybean meal) into our poultry feed selling prices. Selling prices for feed are based
on a replacement cost plus margin methodology, and as cost increases apply to all feed
millers, the whole industry tends to move in tandem to pass them on. Although there is a time
lag in our ability to implement selling price increases, we typically hold two months of raw
material inventory, which has generally been sufficient time to fully pass on a cost increase. In
our poultry business, prices for DOCs and broilers are determined largely by supply and
demand in the market, which means that we do not have the same ability to pass on
increases in raw material costs, unless market prices move accordingly. In our dairy business
in China, prices for our raw milk depend largely on market forces, albeit influenced and
stabilized by government policies. While our margins have generally increased over the past
three years in our China dairy business because prices have increased, it is unlikely that we
would be able to actively pass on increases in raw material prices to our customers. For our
Indonesian dairy business, raw material price fluctuations tend to have a less direct effect on
the sales prices we offer to our customers, as we use our raw milk in the downstream
processing of our consumer food products, which contain significant value-adds. We expect
69
that these trends will continue across our various business lines and that prices and
availability of raw materials will continue to have a material effect on our results of operations.
Foreign Currency Fluctuations and Translations and Translation of Financial
Statements of Foreign Entities
Our results of operations and financial condition are materially affected by currency
translations of the results of operations and financial condition of our subsidiaries in
Indonesia, India, China, Vietnam and other countries whose functional currency is different
from our functional currency at the group level. Our functional currency is the Singapore
dollar, as the Singapore dollar reflects the primary economic environment in which we
operate, and our combined financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, our reporting
currency. As such, we are required to translate the results of operations and financial position
for each entity of the Group with a functional currency other than the Singapore dollar or the
U.S. dollar into Singapore dollars, and from Singapore dollars into U.S. dollars for
presentation in our combined financial statements. For each such entity of our Group, income
and expense items on its statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income are
translated at the average exchange rate between its functional currency and the Singapore
dollar for that reporting period, and assets and liabilities on its balance sheet are translated at
the exchange rate between its functional currency and the Singapore dollar as of the end of
that reporting period. The income and expense items are then translated from Singapore
dollars to U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate between the Singapore dollar and the
U.S. dollar for that reporting period and the assets and liabilities are translated from
Singapore dollars to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate between the Singapore dollar and the
U.S. dollar as of the end of that reporting period. The average exchange rates for the
reporting year for 2011, 2012 and 2013 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 used
for our combined financial statements were S$1:US$0.797, S$1:US$0.803, S$1:US$0.798
and S$1:US$0.790, respectively, and the exchange rates as of the end of the reporting year
for 2011, 2012 and 2013 and March 31, 2014 used for our combined financial statements
were S$1:US$0.772, S$1:US$0.817, S$1:US$0.789 and S$1:US$0.795, respectively.
Substantial currency fluctuations, particularly the depreciation of the local currencies of our
subsidiaries against the Singapore dollar, will result in translation adjustments that may
materially impact our results of operations and the comparison of such line items from year to
year.
Fluctuations in foreign currencies may also directly impact our business and results of
operations by affecting our profit margins where our costs of goods are predominantly
denominated in one currency and sales are made in another currency. For example, a
significant portion of our cost of raw materials for our animal feed produced and sold in
Indonesia is denominated in U.S. dollars, as we import all of our soybean meal and a
significant portion of our corn for our animal feed business in Indonesia. While we generally
have been able to pass on to customers any increases in the cost of raw materials as a result
of the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Rupiah, in the case of a severe depreciation
of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar, we may not be able to pass on, immediately or at all,
some or all of such an increase to Indonesian consumers, which would have an adverse
impact on our profit margin and our business and results of operations. In addition, a severe
depreciation of the Rupiah could dampen consumer confidence and spending power in
Indonesia and cause a decline in demand for our products. Conversely, if the Rupiah were to
appreciate against the U.S. dollar, we would expect profit margins on our animal feed sales in
Indonesia and our results of operations would improve.
Transactions by the Company in foreign currencies are recorded in Singapore dollars at the
prevailing exchange rates as of the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting
year, recorded monetary balances and balances that are measured at fair value and
denominated in functional currencies other than the Singapore dollar are reported at the
prevailing rates as of the end of the reporting year and the fair value dates, respectively. All
70
realized and unrealized exchange adjustment gains and losses are reflected in our statement
of profit or loss. As a result, any such adjustment gains and losses can have a material impact
on our results of operations.
Production Capacity for Dairy, Animal Feed, Poultry and Beef Cattle
We derived a significant portion of our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2011,
2012 and 2013 from our dairy, animal feed, commercial farm and DOC business segments,
and the results of these segments depend to a significant extent on their production
capacities. The volume of raw milk and animal feed and the number of broilers and DOCs that
we can produce annually are dependent on the availability of sufficient production capacity to
meet demand. In recent times, our ability to meet demand in certain of these segments has
been limited by our capacity, and changes to our capacity could have a significant impact on
our net sales. We are currently in the process of expanding our animal feed and DOC
production capacities, which we hope will allow us to better meet our customer demand.
Conversely, any reduction in our production capacities in these key business segments,
whether due to planned maintenance or unforeseen events, may impact our ability to meet
customer demand and could potentially reduce our net sales from the affected business
segment.
Outbreak of Livestock Diseases
Outbreaks of diseases affecting livestock at our poultry, beef cattle, swine, aquaculture and
dairy farms or facilities could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. For instance since 2003, the H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza, or bird
flu, which is potentially lethal to humans, has affected poultry flocks and other birds in several
countries around the world, including in Indonesia, China and Vietnam. Previous outbreaks of
the H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza in Indonesia have resulted in reduced demand for
chickens and drops in the price of DOCs and chicken products. In particular, the initial
outbreak of H5N1 strain of Avian Influenza in Indonesia in late 2003/early 2004 resulted in a
reduction in our gross profit for the first quarter of 2004 for our Indonesian poultry business of
approximately 12.4% from the previous comparative period. An outbreak of disease could
also have a positive effect on our results of operations if consumers perceive us as having
more stringent biosecurity policies and quality control standards than our competitors.
Prices of our Products
The prices of our products are affected by movements in market prices, demand and supply,
the prices of raw materials that we require for production, the quality of our products, and our
customer relationships and strategy, which could have an impact on the demand for our
products. As the selling prices of our feed products typically track the prices of major imported
raw materials, any increase in prices of our raw materials will generally result in an increase in
our selling prices, which could have an impact on the demand for our products. Our dairy,
DOC, broiler, beef, swine and consumer food products are primarily affected by demand and
supply conditions, which can cause our prices to vary due to volatility in market demand and
supply. The prices of our raw milk in China are also driven by the premium quality of our
products. We have established premium dairy businesses in both China and Indonesia and in
2013, the average price of our milk sold in China was approximately 25% higher than the
average market price of milk across ten key production regions in China, according to the
China Ministry of Agriculture. We are also able to sell our dairy products marketed under our
Greenfields brand at premium prices to consumers in Indonesia and other countries in Asia.
High prices can drive our revenue but may also dampen consumer demand. For details on
the average selling prices of our dairy, animal protein and consumer foods products, see the
tables on key operational data in BusinessOur Dairy Segment, BusinessOur Animal
Protein Segment and BusinessOur Consumer Food Segment.
71
such estimates and judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or actual conditions. In order to provide an understanding of how our
management forms their judgment about future events, including the variables and
assumptions underlying our estimates, and the sensitivity of judgments to different
circumstances, we have identified the critical accounting policies discussed below. For more
details, see Note 2 to our combined financial statements included in this Prospectus.
Fair Value of Biological Assets
Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell the assets. In determining the
fair value of the biological assets, the fair value of dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine is
determined based on either (i) the market-determined price as at the end of the reporting year
adjusted with reference to the species, age, growing condition, costs incurred and expected
yield to reflect differences in characteristics and/or stages of growth of the livestock or (ii) the
present value of expected net cash flows from the livestock discounted at a current marketdetermined rate, when market-determined prices are unavailable. Any change in the
estimates may affect the fair value of the livestock significantly. The professional valuers and
management review the assumptions and estimates annually to identify any significant
change in the fair value of the livestock.
Impairment of and Useful Lives of Biological Assets
Our Group assesses annually whether its biological assets that are not measured at fair value
less costs to sell have any indication of impairment. In instances where there are indicators of
impairment, the recoverable amounts of the biological assets will be determined based on
value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of management judgments and
estimates. It is impracticable to disclose the extent of the possible effects. It is reasonably
possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial year that are
different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the
balances affected.
We review the estimated useful lives of breeding chickens at the end of each reporting year.
Where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, the amortization charge is
increased.
Allowance for Doubtful Trade Accounts
An allowance is made for doubtful trade accounts for estimated losses resulting from the
subsequent inability of the customers to make required payments. If the financial conditions of
the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
payments, additional allowances may be required in future periods. Management generally
analyses trade receivables and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, and customer
creditworthiness when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful trade
receivables. To the extent that it is feasible, impairment and uncollectibility is determined
individually for each item. In cases where that process is not feasible, a collective evaluation
of impairment is performed. At the end of the reporting year, the trade receivables carrying
amount approximates the fair value and the carrying amounts might change materially within
the next reporting year but these changes would not arise from assumptions or other sources
of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting year.
Net Realizable Value of Inventories
A review is made periodically on inventory for excess inventory and declines in net realizable
value below cost and an allowance is recorded against the inventory balance for any such
declines. The review requires management to consider the future demand for the products. In
any case the realizable value represents the best estimate of the recoverable amount and is
based on the acceptable evidence available at the end of the reporting year and inherently
73
involves estimates regarding the future expected realizable value. The usual considerations
for determining the amount of allowance or write-down include ageing analysis, technical
assessment and subsequent events. In general, such an evaluation process requires
significant judgment and materially affects the carrying amount of inventories at the end of the
reporting year. Possible changes in these estimates could result in revisions to the stated
value of the inventories.
Useful Lives of Property, Plant and Equipment
The estimates for the useful lives and related depreciation charges for property, plant and
equipment, which includes leasehold land, buildings and site factories, machinery and
equipment, office furniture and fixtures, motor vehicles and assets not in use, are based on
commercial and other factors which could change significantly as a result of innovations in
response to market conditions. The depreciation charge is increased where useful lives are
less than previously estimated lives, or the carrying amounts written off or written down for
technically obsolete or assets that have been abandoned.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at carrying value. An assessment is made at each
end of the reporting year whether there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. If any
such indication exists, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the asset. The
recoverable amounts of cash-generating units if applicable is determined based on value-inuse calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates. It is reasonably possible,
based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial year that are different
from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the balances
affected.
Income Taxes
Our Group has exposure to income taxes in a number of jurisdictions, including Indonesia,
China, India, Vietnam, Myanmar and Singapore. Significant judgment is involved in
determining our Group-wide provision for income taxes. There are certain transactions and
computations for which the ultimate determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of
business. The administration and enforcement of tax, laws and regulations may be subject to
uncertainty and a certain degree of discretion by the tax authorities in these jurisdictions.
Although our Group believes the amounts recognized for income and deferred taxes are
adequate, these amounts may be insufficient based on the respective countries tax
authorities interpretation and application of these laws and regulations and our Group may be
required to pay more as a result. It is impracticable to determine the extent of the possible
effects of the above, if any, on the combined financial statements of our Group. Our Group
recognizes liabilities for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes
will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that
were initially recognized, such differences will have an impact on the income tax and deferred
tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
Deferred Income Taxes
Management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax
assets and liabilities and the extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized.
A deferred tax asset is recognized if it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be
available in the future against which the temporary differences and unused tax losses can be
utilized. Management also considers future taxable income and tax planning strategies in
assessing whether deferred tax assets should be recognized in order to reflect changed
circumstances as well as tax regulations. As a result, due to their inherent nature, it is likely
that deferred tax calculation relates to complex fact patterns for which assessments of
likelihood are judgmental and not susceptible to precise determination.

Principal Components of Our Combined Statement of Profit and Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income
Revenue
Our revenue consists of our total external sales derived from our various business segments
less the sales discounts that we provide to our customers. We derive our revenue primarily
from our dairy, animal protein and consumer food segments. Our revenue from our animal
protein segment primarily comprise revenue derived from sales of our animal feeds,
commercial farming, DOCs, beef cattle, swine, aquaculture and consumer food products
segments.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales primarily represents the costs of raw materials, direct labor costs, manufacturing
overheads (which include utilities, depreciation and rental costs) and changes in inventories
of finished goods and work-in-progress associated with our dairy, animal protein and
consumer food business segments, net of inter-segment eliminations. The cost of raw
materials is the most significant component of our cost of sales. Cost of raw materials
accounted for 84.0%, 83.7% and 84.5% of our overall cost of sales for the years ended
December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively, and 89.5% and 88.3% of our overall cost of
sales for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The raw materials
purchased by us from independent suppliers include raw materials for our dairy, animal
protein and consumer food segments. Set out below is a breakdown of our cost of sales by
business segment and each item as a percentage of our total cost of sales for the periods

which increased from Rp.32,752 per kilogram in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to
Rp.36,337 per kilogram in the three months ended March 31, 2014.
Revenue from Consumer Food. Our revenue from consumer food decreased 28.7% from
US$65.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to US$46.7 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to a decrease in sales volume of our ambient
temperature meat products driven by a decrease in demand as the depreciation of the Rupiah
at the end of 2013 affected purchasing power of our target market which cater more to lower
income customers, which was partially offset by an increase in sales of our chilled/frozen
meat products, which were not as affected by the depreciation of the Rupiah. Gross sales
volume of our ambient temperature meat products decreased from 11,964.7 thousand
kilograms in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to 10,631.2 thousand kilograms in the
three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross sales volume of our chilled/frozen meat products
increased from 1,796.8 thousand kilograms in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to
1,985.1 thousand kilograms in the three months ended March 31, 2014. Over the same
periods, the average selling price of our chilled/frozen meat products remained relatively
constant while the average selling price of our ambient temperature products rose slightly in
Rupiah terms.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales increased 6.1% from US$541.0 million in the three months ended March 31,
2013 to US$574.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to the
increase in cost of sales in our dairy segment and to a lesser extent, an increase in cost of
sales in our animal protein segment, partially offset by a decrease in cost of sales in our
consumer food segment.
Cost of Sales from Dairy. Our cost of sales from dairy increased 69.9% from US$16.6 million
in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to US$28.2 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2014. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by an increase in purchase
of raw materials, primarily feed, in line with the increase in the number of our dairy cows and
a positive change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress in the three months
ended March 31, 2013 as compared to a negative change in inventories of finished goods
and work-in-progress in the three months ended March 31, 2014, partially offset by a
decrease in manufacturing overhead and an increase in our average daily milk volume output
per milking cow. Our average daily milk volume output per milking cow increased as our dairy
cows progressed further in their lactation cycle, where they produce higher volumes of milk.
Cost of Sales from Animal Protein. Our cost of sales from animal protein increased 7.3% from
US$477.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to US$512.5 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in cost of sales was driven by increased
purchases of raw materials in line with increased sales volumes, partially offset by a higher
negative change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress as our stock of finished
goods and work-in-progress decreased over the period.
Cost of Sales from Consumer Food. Our cost of sales from consumer food decreased 28.8%
from US$46.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to US$33.4 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due a decrease in the purchase of our raw
materials in line with decreased sales, partially offset by a higher positive change in
inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress as our stock of finished goods and workin-progress decreased over the period. As our consumer food business is conducted
predominantly through our Indonesian subsidiaries, PT So Good Food and PT So Good Food
Manufacturing, whose functional currency is Rupiah, financial reporting was also affected by
the depreciation of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar from March 31, 2013 to March 31,
2014.
81
the balance sheet items and the income and expense items of PT Japfa whose functional
currency is the Rupiah. The gain from exchange differences in translating foreign operations,
net of tax in the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to the appreciation of
the Rupiah against the Singapore dollar over the period and the loss from exchange
differences in translating foreign operations, net of tax in the three months ended March 31,
2013 was primarily due to the depreciation of the Rupiah against the Singapore dollar over
the period. The exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore dollar were
Rp.8,990.1077 to S$1 as of March 31, 2014 and Rp.7,833.3065 to S$1 as of March 31, 2013.
The average exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore dollar were
Rp.9,239.9858 to S$1 and Rp.7,835.0936 to S$1 for the three months ended March 31, 2014
and March 31, 2013, respectively.
Total Comprehensive Income/(Loss)
As a result of the foregoing, we had total comprehensive income of US$50.1 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to total comprehensive income of
US$14.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013. Total comprehensive income
attributable to owners of the parent was US$33.5 million and total comprehensive income
attributable to owners of non-controlling interests was US$16.6 million in the three months
ended March 31, 2014.
Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2012
Revenue
Our revenue increased 16.2% from US$2,321.8 million in 2012 to US$2,697.3 million in 2013
primarily due to increases in revenue in our animal protein segment and dairy segment,
partially offset by a decrease in revenue in our consumer food segment.
Revenue from Dairy. Our revenue from dairy increased 69.9% from US$72.1 million in 2012
to US$122.5 million in 2013. Increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in sales
volume of our dairy products in China, which increased from 62,487 tons of raw milk sold in
2012 to 124,408 tons of raw milk sold in 2013 driven primarily by an increase in milking cows
(from 9,534 as at December 31, 2012 to 14,498 as at December 31, 2013) as we completed
construction of and commenced milk production at our third dairy farm in June 2013 and to a
lesser extent, to an increase in the average price of our raw milk. The average selling price of
our raw milk from our China operations increased from RMB4.22 per kilogram in 2012 to
RMB4.51 per kilogram in 2013.
Revenue from Animal Protein. Our revenue from animal protein increased 16.8% from
US$2,010.3 million in 2012 to US$2,347.2 million in 2013. This increase was primarily due to
increases in sales volume of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers and swine as well as increases
in average selling prices of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers, swine and cattle. Our gross
sales volume of animal feeds increased from approximately 3.0 million tons in 2012 to
approximately 3.5 million tons in 2013 primarily due to the full year operation of a new feed
mill completed in mid-2012, the addition of additional production machinery and improved raw
materials storage facilities. Our gross sales of DOCs increased from approximately
540.4 million chicks in 2012 to approximately 593.8 million chicks in 2013 primarily as a result
of increased production capacity with the addition of new breeding farms and hatcheries in
Indonesia and acquisition of our Vietnam operations in September 2012. Our gross sales
volume from commercial farming increased from 405,300 tons of broilers and approximately
5,900 piglets sold in 2012 to 534,800 tons of broilers and approximately 72,700 piglets sold in
2013 primarily as a result of increased production capacity due to the addition of a
commercial farm in Indonesia as well as the acquisition of our swine and poultry operations in
Vietnam in September 2012. In Indonesia, the average selling price of our animal feeds
increased from Rp.5,113 per kilogram in 2012 to Rp.5,784 per kilogram in 2013, the average
84
selling price of our broilers increased from Rp.13,438 per kilogram in 2012 to Rp.14,978 per
kilogram in 2013 and the average selling price of our DOCs increased from Rp.3,818 per
chick in 2012 to Rp.4,517 per chick in 2013. This increase in revenue was partially offset by
an decrease in our revenue from cattle sales, which declined from US$115.4 million in 2012
to US$83.2 million in 2013 due primarily to a decline in our sales volume of cattle which
decreased from approximately 69,000 in 2012 to approximately 47,000 in 2013.
Our animal protein business is conducted predominantly through our subsidiary, PT Japfa,
whose functional currency is Rupiah. As a consequence, revenue from animal protein from
2012 to 2013 as reported in U.S. dollars reflects the impact of the depreciation of the Rupiah
against the U.S. dollar from 2012 to 2013, which depreciated approximately 21.0% from
December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013. In Rupiah terms, revenue from our animal protein
segment increased 20.1% from 2012 to 2013.
Revenue from Consumer Food. Our revenue from consumer food decreased 4.9% from
US$239.4 million in 2012 to US$227.6 million in 2013 primarily due to the impact of the
depreciation of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar from 2012 to 2013 and to a lesser extent, a
decrease in our average selling prices. As our consumer food business is conducted
predominantly through our Indonesian subsidiaries, PT So Good Food and PT So Good Food
Manufacturing, whose functional currency is Rupiah, financial reporting from consumer food
was materially impacted by the depreciation of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar from 2012
to 2013, even as sales volumes increased. Gross sales volume of our chilled/frozen meat
products and ambient temperature meat products increased from 42.1 million kilograms in
2012 to 52.8 million kilograms in 2013. In both Rupiah and U.S. dollar terms, the average
selling price of our chilled/frozen meat products and ambient temperature meat products
declined over the same period.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales increased 17.3% from US$1,873.8 million in 2012 to US$2,198.1 million in
2013 primarily due to increases in cost of sales in our animal protein segment and dairy
segment, partially offset by a decrease in cost of sales in our consumer food segment.
Cost of Sales from Dairy. Our cost of sales from dairy increased 69.6% from US$41.8 million
in 2012 to US$70.9 million in 2013. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by an
increase in purchases of raw materials, primarily feed, and also increases in direct labor and
manufacturing overheads and the positive change in inventories of finished goods and workin-progress in line with higher sales volume in 2013, partially offset by an increase in our
average daily milk volume output per milking cow.
Cost of Sales from Animal Protein. Our cost of sales from animal protein increased 18.8%
from US$1,655.0 million in 2012 to US$1,966.6 million in 2013. The increase in cost of sales
was primarily driven by an increase in raw materials expenses which increased 21.1% from
US$1,408.5 million to US$1,705.1 million primarily due to increased purchases of raw
materials and also increases in direct labor and manufacturing overheads in line with
increased sales volumes of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers and swine, partially offset by
lower positive change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress.
Cost of Sales from Consumer Food. Our cost of sales from consumer food decreased 9.3%
from US$177.0 million in 2012 to US$160.6 million in 2013 primarily due to impact of the
depreciation of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar from 2012 to 2013. As our consumer food
business is conducted predominantly through our Indonesian subsidiaries, PT So Good Food
and PT So Good Food Manufacturing, whose functional currency is Rupiah, financial
reporting was affected by the depreciation of the Rupiah against the U.S. dollar from 2012 to
2013. This decrease was partially offset by a higher positive change in inventories of finished
goods and work-in-progress.
85
after issuance of the notes and were impacted by the depreciation of the Indonesian Rupiah
against the U.S. dollar in 2013. Foreign exchange adjustments losses in 2013 were also
partially due to unrealized exchange adjustment losses on balances denominated in Indian
Rupees due to the depreciation of the Indian Rupee against the Singapore dollar in the same
period.
Marketing and Distribution Costs
Marketing and distribution costs increased 14.3% from US$83.1 million in 2012 to
US$95.0 million in 2013 in line with the increase in our sales in 2013.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses increased 16.7% from US$173.5 million in 2012 to US$202.5 million
in 2013 primarily due to costs incurred in connection with the issuance of our U.S. dollardenominated senior notes due 2018 and in line with the increase in our production capacity
and sales in 2013. This increase in production capacity was due to expansion of our facilities,
primarily in Indonesia, which led to an increased in employee benefits expense and other
expenses which form part of our administrative expenses.
Finance Costs
Finance costs increased 17.6% from US$56.8 million in 2012 to US$66.8 million in 2013
primarily due to an increase in borrowings, including the issuance of the U.S. dollardenominated senior notes due 2018 and also the incurrence of additional debt by our dairy
segment. Our borrowings, excluding a non-interest bearing shareholders loan, increased by
approximately US$198.3 million in 2013. We used the increased borrowings for capital
expenditures, working capital and facility expansion, primarily in our animal protein and dairy
segments.
Profit before Tax from Continuing Operations
As a result of the foregoing, profit before tax from continuing operations decreased 22.8%
from US$148.8 million in 2012 to US$114.8 million in 2013.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased 13.0% from US$38.4 million in 2012 to US$33.4 million in
2013 in line with the decrease in our profit before tax from continuing operations.
Profit from Continuing Operations, Net of Tax
As a result of the foregoing, profit from continuing operations, net of tax decreased 26.3%
from US$110.4 million in 2012 to US$81.4 million in 2013. Profit from continuing operations,
net of tax attributable to owners of the parent decreased 21.6% from US$53.3 million in 2012
to US$41.8 million in 2013. Profit from continuing operations, net of tax attributable to owners
of non-controlling interests decreased 30.8% from US$57.2 million in 2012 to US$39.6 million
in 2013.
Remeasurement of the Net Defined Benefits Plan, Net of Tax
Our remeasurement of the net defined benefits plan, net of tax improved from a loss of
US$8.7 million in 2012 to a gain of US$7.2 million in 2013 primarily because the discount rate
in Indonesia underlying the actuarial assumptions used to compute the defined benefit
obligation liabilities for the purpose of the actuarial valuation increased from 5.75% in 2012 to
8.9% in 2013, which reduced the payment obligation of our subsidiary, PT Japfa under its
employee benefit plan. The discount rates used in the actuarial valuation of the defined
benefits obligations are predominantly derived from the medium- to long-term Indonesian
government bonds rates, which represent the risk-free rates. The bond rate used in the
actuarial valuation in 2012 was 5.75% and was determined by reference to the rates at the
87
end of the 2012 reporting period. The bond rate used in the actuarial valuation in 2013 was
8.9% as the bond rates had increased at the end of the 2013 reporting period. As a
consequence of the increase in the bond rates, the defined benefit obligation liability of our
Group reduced at the end of the 2013 reporting period. This re-measurement of the defined
benefit obligation liability gave rise to a gain of US$7.2 million in 2013.
Exchange Differences in Translating Foreign Operations, Net of Tax
Exchange differences in translating foreign operations, net of tax, increased 309.8% from a
loss of US$28.6 million in 2012 to a loss of US$117.2 million in 2013, primarily due to the
translation of the balance sheet items and the income and expense items of PT Japfa whose
functional currency is the Rupiah. The exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore
dollar were Rp.9,635.5687 to S$1 as of December 31, 2013 and Rp.7,878.5650 to S$1 as of
December 31, 2012. The average exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore
dollar were Rp.8,419.3886 to S$1 and Rp.7,540.9644 to S$1 for the years ended
December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The higher loss from exchange
differences in translating foreign operations, net of tax in 2013 was primarily due to the larger
after-tax adjustments made to reconcile (i) the translation of balance sheet items of PT Japfa
using the exchange rates as of December 31, 2013 to (ii) the translated balance sheet items
of PT Japfa of December 31, 2012 and changes in its balance sheet items due to the
translation of its income and expense items using the average exchange rates during 2013.
Total Comprehensive Income/(Loss)
As a result of the foregoing, we had total comprehensive loss of US$28.7 million in 2013 as
compared to total comprehensive income of US$73.1 million in 2012. Total comprehensive
loss attributable to owners of the parent was US$35.3 million and total comprehensive income
attributable to owners of non-controlling interests was US$6.6 million in 2013.
Year ended December 31, 2012 Compared to the Year ended December 31, 2011
Revenue
Our revenue increased 14.4% from US$2,029.8 million in 2011 to US$2,321.8 million in 2012
primarily due to general increases in demand across all our business segments.
Revenue from Dairy. Our revenue from dairy increased 87.8% from US$38.4 million in 2011
to US$72.1 million in 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in sales
volume of our dairy products in China, which increased from 20,225 tons of raw milk sold in
2011 to 62,487 tons of raw milk sold in 2012 driven primarily by an increase in milking cows
(from 3,777 as at December 31, 2011 to 9,534 as at December 31, 2012) as we completed
construction of and commenced milk production at our second dairy farm during 2012 and to
a lesser extent, to an increase in the average price of our raw milk in China. The average
selling price of our raw milk from our China operations increased from RMB4.06 per kilogram
in 2011 to RMB4.22 per kilogram in 2012.
Revenue from Animal Protein. Our revenue from animal protein increased 14.1% from
US$1,762.6 million in 2011 to US$2,010.3 million in 2012. This increase was primarily due to
increases in sales volume of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers and swine as well as increases
in average selling prices of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers, swine and cattle. Our gross
sales volume of animal feeds increased from approximately 2.6 million tons in 2011 to
approximately 3.0 million tons in 2012 due to new feed mill operations in Indonesia, the
addition of production machinery and improvements to our raw materials storage facilities.
Our gross sales volume of DOCs increased from approximately 487.5 million chicks in 2011
to approximately 540.4 million chicks in 2012 primarily as a result of increased production
capacity with the addition of new breeding farms and hatcheries in Indonesia. Our gross sales
volume from commercial farming increased from 293,600 tons of broilers in 2011 to 405,300
88
tons of broilers and 5,900 piglets sold in 2012 primarily as a result of an increase in
production capacity due to additional commercial farming operations in Indonesia in April
2011 and commencement of our swine operations in Vietnam in September 2012. In
Indonesia, the average selling price of our animal feeds increased from Rp.4,840 per kilogram
in 2011 to Rp.5,113 per kilogram in 2012, the average selling price of our broilers increased
from Rp.12,750 per kilogram in 2011 to Rp.13,438 per kilogram in 2012 and the average
selling price of our DOCs increased from Rp.3,232 per chick in 2011 to Rp.3,818 per chick in
2012. The increase in revenue was also due to a lesser extent to the increase in the average
selling price of our cattle, which increased from Rp.23,428 per kilogram in 2011 to Rp.27,568
per kilogram in 2012 due to the rise in demand for beef and the impact of government
regulations in Indonesia restricting the number of import permits for live cattle even as our
sales volume of cattle decreased over the same period from approximately 70,100 in 2011 to
approximately 69,000 in 2012.
Revenue from Consumer Food. Our revenue from consumer food increased 4.6% from
US$228.8 million in 2011 to US$239.4 million in 2012 primarily due to the increase in sales
volume in Indonesia and to a lesser extent, the inclusion of full year results of our Vietnam
consumer food business which we acquired in March 2011. Gross sales volume of our chilled/
frozen meat products and ambient temperature meat products increased from 41.9 million
kilograms in 2011 to 42.1 million kilograms in 2012 while in Rupiah and U.S. dollar terms, the
average selling price of our chilled/frozen meat products and ambient temperature meat
products declined over the same period.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales increased 12.7% from US$1,663.2 million in 2011 to US$1,873.8 million in
2012 in line with the increase in sales volumes across all our business segments.
Cost of Sales from Dairy. Our cost of sales from dairy increased 75.6% from US$23.8 million
in 2011 to US$41.8 million in 2012. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by an
increase in purchases of raw materials, primarily feed, and also increases in direct labor and
manufacturing overheads and the positive change in inventories of finished goods and workin-progress in line with higher sales volume in 2012, partially offset by an increase in our
average daily milk volume output per milking cow.
Cost of Sales from Animal Protein. Our cost of sales from animal protein increased 11.0%
from US$1,490.9 million in 2011 to US$1,655.0 million in 2012. The increase in cost of sales
was primarily due to a 23.4% increase in manufacturing overheads and 18.1% increase in
direct labor from 2011 to 2012 in connection with the addition of commercial farming
operations and new breeding farms and hatcheries and also increased purchases of raw
materials and higher positive change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress in
line with increased sales volumes of our animal feeds, DOCs, broilers and swine.
Cost of Sales from Consumer Food. Our cost of sales from consumer food increased 19.2%
from US$148.5 million in 2011 to US$177.0 million in 2012 primarily due to the increase in
raw material purchases in line with the increase in sales volume of our chilled/frozen meat
products and ambient temperature meat products in Indonesia and the inclusion of full year
results of our Vietnam consumer food business which we acquired in March 2011. It was
partially offset by a lower positive change in inventories of finished goods and work-inprogress.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit increased 22.2% from US$366.5 million in 2011
to US$448.0 million in 2012. Our gross profit margin increased from 18.1% in 2011 to
19.3% in 2012 primarily due to improvements of our gross profit margins in our dairy and
animal protein segments.

Finance Costs
Finance costs increased 35.6% from US$41.9 million in 2011 to US$56.8 million in 2012
primarily due to the Rupiah bond issued by PT Japfa in early 2012. See Material
IndebtednessIndebtednessRupiah Bond.
Profit before Tax from Continuing Operations
As a result of the foregoing, profit before tax from continuing operations increased 30.1% from
US$114.4 million in 2011 to US$148.8 million in 2012.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense increased 10.0% from US$34.9 million in 2011 to US$38.4 million in
2012 in line with the increase in our profit before tax from continuing operations.
Profit from Continuing Operations, Net of Tax
As a result of the foregoing, profit from continuing operations, net of tax increased 38.9% from
US$79.5 million in 2011 to US$110.4 million in 2012. Profit from continuing operations, net of
tax attributable to owners of the parent increased 19.8% from US$44.5 million in 2011 to
US$53.3 million in 2012. Profit from continuing operations, net of tax attributable to owners of
non-controlling interests increased 63.4% from US$35.0 million in 2011 to US$57.2 million in
2012.
Remeasurement of the Net Defined Benefits Plan, Net of Tax
Our remeasurement of the net defined benefits plan, net of tax increased 40.3% from a loss
of US$6.2 million in 2011 to a loss of US$8.7 million in 2012 because of the adoption of
FRS 19 at our Group level, which required recognition of changes in value of the net defined
benefits plan of PT Japfa as other comprehensive income/(loss).
Exchange Differences in Translating Foreign Operations, Net of Tax
Exchange differences in translating foreign operations, net of tax, increased 91.9% from a
loss of US$14.9 million in 2011 to a loss of US$28.6 million in 2012, primarily due to the
translation of the balance sheet items and the income and expense items of PT Japfa whose
functional currency is the Rupiah. The exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore
dollar were Rp.7,878.5650 to S$1 as of December 31, 2012 and Rp.7,059.9600 to S$1 as of
December 31, 2011. The average exchange rates between the Rupiah and the Singapore
dollar were Rp.7,540.9644 to S$1 and Rp.7,001.7400 to S$1 for the years ended
December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The higher loss from exchange
differences in translating foreign operations, net of tax in 2012 was primarily due to the larger
after-tax adjustments made to reconcile (i) the translation of balance sheet items of PT Japfa
using the exchange rates as of December 31, 2012 to (ii) the translated balance sheet items
of PT Japfa as of December 31, 2011 and changes in its balance sheet items due to the
translation of its income and expense items using the average exchange rates during 2012.
Total Comprehensive Income/(Loss)
As a result of the foregoing, total comprehensive income increased 25.2% from
US$58.4 million in 2011 to US$73.1 million in 2012. Total comprehensive income attributable
to owners of the parent was US$39.4 million in 2012 and total comprehensive income
attributable to owners of non-controlling interests was US$33.7 million in 2012.

Operating cash flows before working capital changes was a result of profit before tax from
continuing operations of US$27.2 million and positive non-cash adjustments of
US$41.3 million primarily for accrued interest expense and depreciation of PPE and the net
effect of exchange rate changes, partially offset by a smaller change in the fair value gain on
biological assets.
Net cash generated from operating activities was US$89.1 million in 2013, consisting of
operating cash flows before working capital changes of US$217.2 million, cash outflow due to
changes in working capital of US$93.3 million and taxes paid of US$34.8 million. Changes in
working capital primarily comprised purchases of biological assets primarily dairy cows for our
dairy segment in relation to commencement of operations of our third dairy farm in China,
which was partially offset by an increase in trade and other payables in line with such
purchases and higher than usual purchases of raw materials (primarily soybean meal) by
Annona in the fourth quarter of 2013 in anticipation of increased prices of raw materials
(including soybean meal). Operating cash flows before working capital changes was a result
of profit before tax from continuing operations of US$114.8 million and positive non-cash
adjustments of US$102.4 million primarily for accrued interest expense and depreciation of
PPE, partially offset by the net effect of exchange rate changes.
Net cash generated from operating activities was US$27.0 million in 2012, consisting of
operating cash flows before working capital changes of US$235.8 million, cash outflow due to
changes in working capital of US$163.5 million and taxes paid of US$45.4 million. Changes in
working capital primarily comprised purchases of raw materials for our animal protein
segment (primarily raw materials for our swine operations in Vietnam, which we acquired in
September 2012) and purchases of biological assets primarily dairy cows for our dairy
segment in relation to commencement of operations of our second dairy farm in China and
increases in trade receivables generally in line with increased sales, which was partially offset
by an increase in trade and other payables in line with increased inventory and biological
asset purchases. Operating cash flows before working capital changes was a result of profit
before tax from continuing operations of US$148.8 million and positive non-cash adjustments
of US$87.0 million primarily for accrued interest expense and depreciation of PPE, partially
offset by the net effect of exchange rate changes.
Net cash used in operating activities was US$23.2 million in 2011, consisting of operating
cash flows before working capital changes of US$179.6 million, cash outflow due to changes
in working capital of US$144.0 million and taxes paid of US$58.8 million. Changes in working
capital primarily comprised purchases of raw materials for our animal protein segment and
purchases of biological assets primarily dairy cows for our dairy segment and a decrease in
trade payables, which was partially offset by a decrease in trade and other receivables. The
decrease in trade and other payables and the decrease in trade and other receivables were
due to eliminations of trade and other payables and trade and other receivables accounts
between AIH and PT So Good Food due to consolidation at the combined Group level.
Operating cash flows before working capital changes was a result of profit before tax from
continuing operations of US$114.4 million and positive non-cash adjustments of
US$65.2 million primarily for accrued interest expense and depreciation of PPE partially offset
by gain on disposal of PPE, and the net effect of exchange rate changes.
Net Cash Flows (Used in)/From Investing Activities
In the three months ended March 31, 2014, our net cash used in investing activities was
US$47.9 million. This consisted primarily of cash payments of US$49.2 million used for the

primarily of cash payments of US$206.6 million used primarily for the construction and
expansion of our dairy farms in China including the acquisition of PPE in connection with the
expansion of our dairy farms in China (for which we made cash payments of US$32.4 million
(excluding payments towards biological assets)), the expansion of production capacity at our
existing feedmills (for which we made cash payments of US$26.2 million) and also the
expansion of breeding farms (for which we made cash payments of US$39.1 million), partially
offset by cash receipts of US$2.9 million of interest received on bank deposits and US$2.2
million of proceeds from the disposal of PPE.
In 2012, our net cash used in investing activities was US$242.2 million, consisting primarily of
cash payments of US$202.0 million used primarily for the construction and expansion of our

payments towards biological assets)) and the expansion of production capacity in existing
feedmills (for which we made cash payments of US$36.4 million), the expansion and
construction of existing and new breeding farms and hatcheries and the re-location of an
aqua-feedmill (for which we made cash payments of US$72.9 million) and US$51.0 million
net cash outflow at acquisition date in relation to the acquisition of two subsidiaries, PT
Agrinusa Jaya Santosa and Japfa Vietnam Investments Pte Ltd, partially offset by cash
receipts of US$5.9 million of interest received on bank deposits and US$6.8 million of
proceeds from the disposal of PPE.
In 2011, our net cash used in investing activities was US$148.0 million, consisting primarily of

with the construction of two poultry feedmills and expansion of capacity in existing feedmills
(for which we made cash payments of US$34.1 million), the construction of new breeding
farms and hatching facilities (for which we made cash payments of US$43.0 million) and
US$28.5 million net cash outflow at acquisition datenet of cash balance of a subsidiary, PT
Primatama Karya Persada, acquired, partially offset by cash receipts of US$17.6 million from
the disposal of PPE and US$3.1 million of interest received on bank deposits.
Net Cash Flows From/(Used in) Financing Activities
In the three months ended March 31, 2014, our net cash from financing activities was
US$83.5 million, consisting primarily of US$66.6 million from the proceeds from additional
bank loans in Indonesia, US$20.6 million in proceeds from additional shareholder loans from
shareholders of the Company and US$7.1 million in proceeds from the issuance of shares to
non-controlling shareholders of AIH and non-controlling shareholders of Japfa Comfeed

Initial phase of the feedlot is expected to be completed by the end of 2014.
In addition to the material capital expenditure disclosed in the table above, we have also
budgeted an aggregate of US$303.6 million for planned capital expenditures in 2014 (which
includes environmental, maintenance and construction capital expenditure) in (i) our animal
protein segment (including feed, breeding, aquaculture, beef and swine) spanning Indonesia,
Myanmar, Vietnam and India to the extent of US$218.3 million, (ii) our dairy segment in China
and Indonesia to the extent of US$55.3 million, and (iii) our consumer food segment in
Indonesia, Vietnam and Myanmar to the extent of US$30.0 million.
We anticipate that the funds needed for such capital expenditures will come from part of the
net proceeds from the Offering together with our internal cash and bank loans.
Our actual capital expenditures may differ from the amounts set out above due to various
factors, including our business plan, the progress of our capital projects, our financial
performance, market conditions, our outlook for future business conditions, and relevant
governmental approvals needed. To the extent that we do not generate sufficient cash flows
from our operations to meet our working capital needs and to execute our capital expenditure
plans, or to the extent certain governmental approvals may not be obtained in a timely
manner or at all, we may revise our capital expenditure plans or seek additional debt or equity
financing.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet liabilities that are not reflected in our financial
statements.
Risk Management
We are, during the normal course of business, exposed to various types of market risks,
including interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, among others. Our risk management
strategy aims to minimize the adverse effects of financial risk on our financial performance.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
The substantial majority of our business and sales are conducted in Indonesia, whose official
currency is the Rupiah. We also have substantial operations in China and Vietnam, whose
official currency is the Renminbi and Vietnam Dong, respectively. We import a certain amount
of corn and all of the soybean meal for our Indonesian animal feed business from sources
outside of Indonesia. Our foreign currency denominated liabilities as of March 31, 2014
include borrowings and trade payables denominated in U.S. dollars, Rupiah, Renminbi and
Vietnam Dong. We also pay interest on our U.S. dollar-denominated Notes. As a result, we
have certain exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations and market risk associated with such
exchange rate movements against the Singapore dollar, our functional currency, the U.S.
dollar, our Groups presentation currency, Renminbi, the functional currency of our China
operations and Rupiah, the functional currency of our Indonesian operations.
We manage our foreign exchange risks by performing regular review and by monitoring our
foreign exchange exposures.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Our exposure to the risk of changes in
98
market interest rates relates primarily to the fluctuation of the prevailing market interest rate
confined to bank deposits, which is immaterial to our profit before tax from continuing
operations and equity.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial
instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. We are exposed to credit risk
from its operating activities (primarily for trade receivables) and from its financing activities,
including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and
other financial instruments.
We face concentration customer credit risk in our China dairy business. As of March 31,
2014, our top three customers in our China dairy business accounted for approximately 84%
of our total dairy sales in China.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations as they fall
due. We manage liquidity risk by monitoring forecast and actual cash flows continuously and
keeping sufficient cash and cash equivalents.
Commodity Price Risk
We are exposed to commodity price risk resulting from changes in the prices of corn, soybean
meal and alfalfa, some of our principal raw materials. We mitigate our commodity price risk by
typically passing on any increases in the cost of raw materials to customers.
Seasonality
The Indonesian poultry industry is subject to seasonal fluctuations in demand. Typically,
poultry consumption is highest during Ramadan and lowest during the period immediately
following Ramadan and during the beginning of the school year. This seasonality may cause
our net sales to vary across different calendar quarters from year to year. In addition, our
dairy segment typically experiences lower milk production during the summer months. Milk
production is generally lower during the months of July through August for our China dairy
business and April through May for our Indonesian dairy business due to higher temperatures
which affect the production levels of our dairy cows during such periods. We are also subject
to seasonality in respect of our raw materials such as corn, which prices and supply are
subject to the seasonal fluctuations of corn harvests.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Singapore Accounting Standards Council has released revisions to several accounting
standards that may have a material impact on our future financial statements. We are
currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of such accounting standards may
have on our financial statements. See Note 39 to our combined financial statements.

CORPORATE REORGANIZATION
We have, prior to the Offering, implemented a corporate reorganization in preparation for our
listing on the SGX-ST, resulting in our Company becoming the holding company of our
Group. Certain details regarding the corporate reorganization from January 1, 2011 up to the
Latest Practicable Date are as follows:
AIH
Acquisition of AIH
On April 2, 2014, our Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Progressive
Investment Inc. (PII), Foxbar Investments Ltd. (Foxbar) and Viva Sino Investments Limited
(Viva) (collectively, the Progressive Group) for the purchase by our Company of an
aggregate of 134,953,572 fully paid ordinary shares and 6,343,571 partially paid ordinary
shares in, and comprising 61.9% of the issued shares in, the capital of AIH (AIH Shares) for
a consideration of US$554,456,870, comprising US$50,000,000 in cash and 168,256,634
new Shares1 in the capital of our Company issued to the Progressive Group (or to their
order). Following the completion of this transaction, our Company holds 61.87% of the issued
AIH Shares.
The above consideration also includes payment for the assignment of the rights of the
Progressive Group to our Company in respect of (i) the deed of undertaking dated July 19,
2012 entered into between BR Fund 1, Foxbar Investments Ltd, and AIH (Foxbar
Undertaking), under which BR Fund 1 had undertaken to Foxbar to pay 30.0% of its
realization value upon a realization event (AIH IPO or sale of its shares) less its cost of
investment, and (ii) the deed of undertaking dated August 13, 2010 entered between
BR Fund 1, PII and AIH (as amended on August 10, 2011) (PII Undertaking), under which
BR Fund 1 had undertaken to PII to pay 20.0% of its realization value upon a realization event
(AIH IPO or sale of its shares) less its cost of investment. At Foxbar/PIIs election, payment
can take the form of cash or AIH Shares or the form of consideration payable to BR Fund 1.
In addition, Foxbar and PII (respectively) are entitled to (in lieu of, or in combination with, its
other rights of election) purchase up to 30.0% and 20.0% (respectively) of BR Fund 1s AIH
Shares at a price equivalent to its pro-rated cost of investment. The AIH Shares subject to the
Foxbar Undertaking and the PII Undertaking aggregate to 14,014,286 AIH Shares or 6.1% of
the issued AIH Shares, subscribed for by BR Fund 1 at an aggregate of US$15.2 million.
Our Executive Deputy Chairman, Mr. Handojo Santosa, has controlling interests in PII,
Foxbar and Viva. Our Non-Executive Director, Mr. Hendrick Kolonas, has a non-controlling
interest in PII and Foxbar and our Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Tan
Yong Nang, has a non-controlling interest in Foxbar and Viva.
The acquisition was on an arms length basis and the consideration was determined by the
Company using the mid-point of a range of valuations based on listed companies comparable
to AIH and a see-through valuation for the Foxbar Undertaking and PII Undertaking based on
the valuation of AIH and BR Fund 1s cost of investment. The price at which the Shares of the
Company were to be issued was based on a sum-of-the-parts valuation of our Group prior to
the acquisition of AIH. The component valuations included the mid-points of a range of
valuations based on listed comparable companies to our Groups unlisted subsidiaries and
the market capitalization of PT Japfa just prior to the date of the sale and purchase
agreement.

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
We are a leading agri-food company that produces multiple protein foods with operations in
five high-growth emerging Asian markets. We have, over 40 years, developed core
competencies across the agri-food value chain, including animal feed production, animal
breeding, livestock fattening and consumer food.
We are a market leader across multiple classes of protein foods, with an emphasis on milk,
poultry and beef, complemented by growing businesses in swine and aquaculture. In
Indonesia we are one of the two largest producers of poultry, with over 40 years of
experience, and we currently produce approximately 1.5 million day-old chicks (DOCs) per
day. We have replicated our industrialized, vertically integrated business model for poultry
production in Vietnam, India and Myanmar. In China we successfully replicated our
Indonesian dairy business and are, today, one of a small group of leading producers of
premium milk that is of the highest quality available in the market and that commands
premium prices in China. Given the growing affluence of the populations in our target middleand lower- income consumer groups, we expect protein food consumption in these markets to
rise. We intend to capitalize on this trend by increasing our production capabilities for
premium milk and animal proteins across our markets.
We have an industrialized approach to farming and food production. This allows us to
produce consistently high-quality proteins and to replicate our business model as we expand
our existing protein operations in and across our existing markets. In addition, the vertical
integration of our animal protein business from animal feed production to breeding and
commercial farming to slaughtering and food processing creates more opportunities to
capture value at different points in the value chain. It also provides us with greater food
security and traceability, which is important as we grow our downstream consumer food
brands.
We leverage the high quality of our raw materials to produce premium and mass market
consumer branded food products under leading brands such as So Good and Greenfields.

Other Information.
Dairy
We produce premium raw milk in China and Indonesia that rates at the top of each market in
terms of both quality and price. In China, we focus on producing premium raw milk that we
sell to leading dairies in China at premium prices. There is a substantial shortfall in the supply
of premium milk in China, as highlighted by several food safety scandals in recent years, and
we believe that we are well positioned to benefit from this shortfall and from the expected
growth in dairy consumption in that market. In Indonesia, we use all of our premium raw milk
in our downstream consumer dairy businesses to produce premium dairy products, in
particular premium fresh milk, marketed under our Greenfields brand to consumers in
Indonesia and other countries in Asia.
We operate a five-farm hub of dairy farms in China, with four of the farms in the operational
stage. We expect construction of the fifth farm to be completed by the end of 2014, with milk
production commencing in early 2015. We build our dairy farms pursuant to an industrialized
model of approximately 10,000 to 12,000 heads of cattle per farm. Each dairy farm is
standardized and replicable across locations and jurisdictions. In total, we invested
approximately US$300 million to build our first five-farm hub in Shandong. Our farms are part
of a small number of very large-scale farms in the PRC. According to the Industry Consultant,
as of 2013, large-scale farms (farms housing more than 1,000 heads of cattle) comprise
15.1% of the cattle population in the PRC. We sell our premium raw milk to some of the
leading dairy companies in China for their use in the production of premium fresh milk and
other dairy products. Our farms in China are located in Shandong province, and as of
December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had approximately 40,700 and 41,800 heads of
dairy cattle in China, with approximately 14,500 and 16,700 milking cows respectively. We
produced over 130,000 tons of milk in China in 2013, and our average milk yield per milking
cow for 2013 was 11.5 tons per annum. Our premium raw milk in China is consistently at the
top of the market in terms of quality, consistently exceeding Chinese and international
standards for nutrition and safety. The quality of our raw milk is also reflected in its selling
price. In 2013, the average selling price of our milk was RMB 4.51 per kilogram, which was
approximately 25% higher than the average price of milk from ten major milk production
110
regions in China, according to the China Ministry of Agriculture1. In the first three months of
2014, the average price of our milk reached RMB 5.25 per kilogram. See BusinessOur
Dairy SegmentIntroduction.
We intend to expand our China dairy business and grow the number of our dairy farms in
China, commencing with the construction of another five-farm hub in Inner Mongolia. We
have entered into a framework agreement with the Chifeng City Government of Inner
Mongolia for the construction of this new five-farm hub, and we intend to begin construction
on the first additional farm before the end of 2014 and to complete the second five-farm hub
in 2018, which would bring our total herd size in China to approximately 120,000 heads of
cattle. On July 12, 2014, we entered into conditional lease agreements with local township
governments in Chifeng City for the construction of farms at two sites in Chifeng.
In Indonesia, we operate a vertically integrated dairy business. We operate an industrialized
dairy farm to produce premium raw milk that we use for the production of our own
downstream dairy products, including fresh milk, UHT milk and premium cheeses. We market
and sell our downstream products under our own brands directly to customers in the retail
market, including to major food and beverage companies such as Starbucks. Our farm in
Indonesia is located in Malang, East Java, at an altitude that is conducive to raising highquality dairy cows, and as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had approximately
5,800 and 5,700 heads of cattle in Indonesia with approximately 3,000 and 2,900 milking
cows, respectively. We produced over 26,000 tons of raw milk in Indonesia in 2013, and our
average milk yield per milking cow for 2013 was 9.1 tons per annum. As in China, our raw
milk in Indonesia is of premium quality, which is reflected in its nutritional and safety
standards, as well as in the premium quality of and premium pricing for our downstream dairy
products and the leading market position of our Greenfields brand. We also export a portion
of our downstream dairy products to our key strategic customers such as Starbucks and Cold
Storage, in other markets in Asia, including Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines. The
success of our vertically integrated Indonesian dairy operations is driving our strategy to
increase our upstream production capacity, and we have purchased land for a second dairy
farm, in Blitar, East Java which we expect to be fully operational by the end of 2016.
As of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had a total of approximately 46,400 and
47,500 heads of dairy cattle, with approximately 17,500 and 19,500 milking cows, across our
farms in China and Indonesia respectively, compared to approximately 18,300 heads of
cattle, with approximately 6,400 milking cows as of December 31, 2011.
See BusinessOur Dairy SegmentIntroduction.
Animal Protein
We produce multiple high-quality animal proteins (poultry, swine, beef and aquaculture); as
well as high-quality animal feed, across our target markets. Our animal protein operations are
vertically integrated and cover the entire value chain of animal protein production, from animal
feed to breeding and commercial farming to slaughtering and processing livestock and
supplying the raw materials for our downstream consumer food segment (see Business
Consumer Food). We are one of the two largest poultry and poultry feed manufacturers in
Indonesia, with over 40 years of experience in poultry production, and in 2013 we had a
domestic market share of 25% by production capacity of DOCs and 22% by volume of animal
feed (excluding aquafeed) sold. See Appendix FIndependent Market Research on

Selected Food Markets in Indonesia, China, India, Vietnam and Myanmar. We also have
poultry operations in Vietnam, Myanmar and India and beef operations in China. In addition,
we produce other classes of proteins, namely swine (in Vietnam) and aquaculture (in
Indonesia). We seek to replicate our successful industrialized operational model in Indonesia
for poultry and beef in and across our other markets and our other classes of proteins.
The following chart illustrates the fully integrated value chain for animal protein production.
Our operations include each of the steps in this value chain for certain of our proteins, such
as poultry and swine, and most of the steps for our other proteins. See also BusinessOur
Animal Protein SegmentIntroduction for a more detailed description of these steps.
Breeding Farms
Animal Feed
Commercial Farming:
poultry: grow out
cattle: feedlotting
swine: fattening
Slaughterhouse
Consumer Food
In our poultry business, we operate over 70 breeding farms and over 30 hatcheries to
produce DOCs, primarily in Indonesia, as well as in Vietnam, Myanmar and India. In 2013 we
sold almost 600 million DOCs across our markets. In 2013, we sold approximately 7% of our
DOCs produced in Indonesia internally to our own commercial farms for growing out, with the
remainder sold to contract farms or third parties. We have over 10,000 commercial farms in
our network, most of which are contract farms that are owned and operated by local farmers
who grow out the chicks on our behalf. We source most of our grandparent stock for chicken
from Aviagen, one of the worlds leading poultry genetics companies, and our industrialized
approach results in premium quality DOCs and feed conversion ratios that are among the
highest in the industry in Indonesia.
In our beef business, we are one of the largest beef cattle feedlot operators in Indonesia and
the largest importer of live beef cattle into Indonesia. We breed, fatten and process beef cattle
and have four feedlots in Indonesia with a total production capacity of 165,000 heads of cattle
per year. We also have cattle breeding operations in Australia, where our stations can hold
approximately 45,000 heads of cattle at any one time. We import the cattle bred at our
stations in Australia to Indonesia for fattening and processing, and we ship approximately
12,000 heads of cattle per year from our Australian operations to our feedlots in Indonesia.
Our beef business is operated as a fully integrated business, whereby breeding, feed,
fattening and slaughterhouse operations are carried out within our Group and are therefore
under unified control and operation.
In addition, we have swine breeding and distribution operations in Vietnam, where we sold
approximately 72,700 piglets in 2013. In 2012 we entered into a joint venture with Hypor, one
of the worlds leading suppliers of swine genetics, which enables us to operate the entire
chain of swine breeding farms, including nurseries and parent, grandparent and great
grandparent farms. In addition, we also produce small amounts of fish and shrimp in
Indonesia.
112
We produce premium-quality animal feed in Indonesia, Vietnam and Myanmar, both for our
own poultry, swine and aquaculture operations, as well as for sale to third parties. We sold
over 3.5 million tons of animal feed in 2013 across our markets, including both internal and
external sales. We formulate the feed to maximize its nutritional value depending on its end
use and brand it accordingly, and our feed brands are among the most recognized in
Indonesia.
Consumer Food
We use the high-quality milk and animal protein products that we produce in-house as raw
materials for our downstream consumer food segment. As a result, we are able to trace the
quality of the ingredients in our consumer food products all the way through the production
chain, which provides us with a high degree of confidence in the quality and reliability of our
consumer food products.
We make ambient-temperature and chilled/frozen meat products from chicken, beef and
seafood for the Indonesian market. Our So Good and Sozzis brands are leading brands in
Indonesia for premium processed meats, while our Real Good and So Nice brands focus on
the mass market convenience pack segment for UHT milk and meat, respectively. Due to the
high value-add element of our consumer food products and the changing consumer
preferences in our markets, we believe that our consumer food segment has significant
potential for future growth.
OUR STRENGTHS
We believe that we have the following competitive strengths:
Our industrialized approach to agri-food production and our vertical integration drive
our leadership positions and growth strategies.
Our agri-food production involves (i) large-scale standardization of our operations to create
efficiencies and facilitate replication, (ii) use of superior breeds, and (iii) a sophisticated
approach to animal husbandry, animal health and nutrition, including a strong focus on biosecurity. This approach provides us with a number of key strategic and financial advantages
compared to traditional farming, including the following:
Economies of scale and cost savings that allow us to produce quality products at lower
costs, thereby driving our competitiveness and profitability. Economies of scale also
allow us to provide better animal health and nutrition, while mitigating risks of disease
outbreak through better bio-security;
Consistently high-quality animal protein products that are trusted by our customers who
are willing to pay premium pricing for quality and product traceability; and
Advantages when we expand our business within existing markets or into new markets.
Our experience replicating our industrialized approach provides a cost-effective model
for continued growth. We have executed this strategy in connection with our entry into
the poultry market in Vietnam, India and Myanmar and into the dairy market in China.
113
In addition, the vertical integration of our animal protein business from animal feed production
to breeding to food processing, provides us with a number of significant competitive
advantages, including the following:
We have more opportunities to capture value at different points on the chain and to
continue to diversify our business, enabling us to realize favorable profit margins
compared to less integrated farming operations;
Controlling the entire protein food value chain provides us with greater food security and
traceability. This is becoming increasingly important in Asia and is a key driver for
premium pricing in our protein businesses and consumer food segment as consumers
become more aware of health and safety concerns involving food; and
As we consider new market opportunities across our five target markets for our five
classes of proteins, we have a better understanding of the risks and opportunities
involved at each stage of the value chain and are better able to target our entry point into
the new market opportunity accordingly.
form the bulk of animal protein consumption in Asia) to create leading market positions and
then replicate our successes as we expand our five classes of proteins in and across our five
target markets. For example, we are one of the two largest producers of poultry in Indonesia,
with over 40 years of experience, and are successfully replicating our Indonesian poultry
business model in Vietnam, Myanmar and India. We are also replicating the success of our
Indonesian dairy business in China, where we have increased our herd size by more than
three times, from 12,774 heads of cattle in 2011 to 40,691 heads of cattle in 2013.
We currently focus on the following protein segments where we believe there are significant
opportunities to strengthen our market positions:
Poultry
We have over 40 years of experience in poultry production and have developed a fully
integrated and industrialized business model across the entire value chain of poultry
production, from the manufacture of poultry feed, to breeding and commercial farming, to
the processing of chicken meat and the marketing of branded processed foods. This
business model provides us with a number of strategic and financial benefits that have
contributed to our market positions. In 2013, we had market shares in Indonesia of
25.1% by production capacity of DOCs and 21.9% by volume of poultry feed (excluding
aqua feed), which was the second-largest market share in Indonesia, with the nextlargest poultry feed producer holding a market share of 5.5%. We drew on our extensive
experience in the Indonesian poultry industry as we expanded in Vietnam, where we had
a 22% market share in 2013 by number of broilers produced. Similarly, we have also
been able to develop leading market positions for poultry in Myanmar and are developing
our poultry operations in India.
Dairy
We are one of a small group of leading, industrialized producers of premium raw milk in
Indonesia and China that is of the highest quality in terms of nutritional and safety
standards. In Indonesia, we use all of our premium raw milk in our downstream
consumer dairy businesses to produce fresh milk and premium cheeses marketed under
our Greenfields brand. According to the Industry Consultant, in 2013, our Greenfields
brand was the market leader for premium fresh milk in Indonesia, with an estimated
market share of 38.4% by value. In China, we currently focus exclusively on producing
premium raw milk that we sell at premium prices to leading dairies in China. In 2013, the
average price of our milk was RMB 4.51 per kilogram, approximately 25% higher than
the average market price of milk across ten key production regions in China.
In China, there is a structural supply shortage of raw milk that the Industry Consultant
expects to continue through 2018. The demand for raw milk increased at a compounded
average growth rate of 4.8% from 2008 to 2013 and, according to the Industry
Consultant, the current demand growth is outpacing the growth in production. Over the
same period, Chinas raw milk supply increased from 35.6 million tons in 2008 to
37.4 million tons in 2012 but declined by 5.7% (compared to 2012) to 35.3 million tons in
2013, as a result of extended dry conditions, contagious diseases amongst cows and the
exit of some small-scale dairy farms.
115
Swine
Swine remains the largest protein segment in a number of Asian emerging economies,
including China and Vietnam, which presents significant opportunities for industrialized
farmers in these markets. In Vietnam, we are replicating our industrialized approach to
farming in order to create a market-leading position for swine.
Beef
We believe there are attractive opportunities in Asian markets for beef products, as beef
consumption increases with rising levels of wealth. In particular, the Indonesian market
could be a strong growth area for our Group, as there is ample supply of quality feed in
that market. In China, we also intend to draw upon synergies with the expansion of our
dairy business in order to grow our beef operations in that market.
We have established a leading premium dairy business in China and Indonesia, which
is poised for substantial growth.
We have established premium dairy businesses in both China and Indonesia that, we believe,
place us at the top of the dairy market in both of these high-growth countries and position us
for sustainable and profitable growth. In China, we sell our premium raw milk to processors in
the rapidly developing premium dairy market. In Indonesia, we have the largest dairy farm
operation by volume of premium fresh milk produced, and we use our raw milk to produce
premium fresh milk and other premium downstream dairy products that we sell directly to
consumers. We believe that our success in producing high-quality milk, generating high yields
from our milking cows and receiving premium prices for our milk and milk products is due to a
number of factors, including the following:
Scale and design of farms: we have expertise in building and operating large-scale
industrialized dairy farms, with a standardized ten- to twelve-thousand-head farm design
that maximizes operational efficiency and quality. These farms are supported by
government policies to encourage large-scale farming in both China and Indonesia. In
China, incentives include (a) tax exemptions and rebates on value-added tax and
corporate income tax, (b) providing infrastructure support, including water and power,
and (c) granting long-term land leases at rates below market rate. In Indonesia,
incentives include value-added tax exemptions and import duty exemptions on the
import of certain capital goods. The quality of raw milk supplied from our farms is
significantly higher than the overall quality of raw milk supplied in each of these
countries, as the significant majority of raw milk is sourced from small-holder farms;
High-yielding livestock: we select the most suitable semen from our suppliers to optimize
the genetic mix of our cows and breed the highest-yielding cows. In addition, we use
sex-controlled semen in order to increase the birth rate of female cows on our farms.
Location of farms: in China, our first five-farm hub is located in Shandong province,
which has cool and dry weather and an abundance of fertile land and is proximate to
Beijing and Shanghai. We intend to commence building our second five-farm hub in
2014 in Inner Mongolia, which will have similar operational advantages. In Indonesia, our
farm is located 1,200 meters above sea level, with cool and dry weather and good
access to water. In addition, we have purchased land for a second dairy farm in Blitar,
East Java, Indonesia and we target completion of construction of this farm in the first half
of 2016.
116
We believe that our consistent application of these practices is the driving factor that
underpins the success of our dairy business. This success is reflected in the following:
Milk quality: our milk is of the highest quality in both the Chinese and the Indonesian
market. The protein and fat levels of our milk exceed both Chinese and international
industry standards by substantial margins, while our microbe counts and somatic cell
counts are only about one-tenth of the maximum counts allowed by those standards.
See BusinessOur Dairy Segment. Especially in the Chinese market, with its recent
history of food quality scandals involving milk, this high quality gives us a significant
advantage over many other milk producers in the market.
Premium pricing: the premium quality of our milk results in premium prices for our milk,
as customers look to use our milk for the production of their high-end dairy products. In
the first three months of 2014, our raw milk sold for an average price of RMB 5.25 per
kilogram, compared to an average price for milk for ten key production regions in China
of RMB 4.24 per kilogram, according to the China Ministry of Agriculture.2
Milk yields: our average milk yield per cow in 2013 was 9.1 tons per annum in Indonesia
and 11.5 tons per annum in China, compared to industry averages of 3 tons per annum
and 5.5 tons per annum in these countries.

Because we control virtually the entire production chain for most of these products, we have a
high level of traceability and quality control for our consumer foods, which provides us with a
strong reputation for quality and reliability, in particular with international food service
customers and leading modern retailers.
We benefit from a strong management team focused on growth and driving group
synergies across our business segments.
Our senior management team consists of experienced industry executives with a long history
in our Group and a clear long-term vision of our Groups business. This team is supported by
operational leaders who are integral to our success and future growth strategies, and have
extensive experience in the day-to-day operations of farms, feedmills, food processing plants,
and all other aspects of our business. This combination of long-term vision and strong
operational expertise is the key reason for our Groups success in growing from one feedmill
more than 40 years ago to our market-leading poultry business, and more recently, our
sizeable dairy business.
We believe that the structure of our organization and the manner in which the business
segments operate with each other drive synergies across our Group. For example, in each of
our business segments:
Our senior management team fosters an industrialized farming culture and approach to
operations. The strength and consistency of this culture facilitates collaboration across
business segments;
The operational segment leaders are highly experienced with significant industry and
technical knowledge. They have developed best practices for their businesses, and
these competencies can be shared across our Group; and
We benefit from the expertise and experience developed in other business segments by
sharing key resources when we expand into new markets or implement new growth and
operational initiatives.
OUR STRATEGY
We intend to drive the growth of our Group through the following strategic initiatives:
Expand our dairy business in China through the continued replication of our
successful business model
We intend to expand our China dairy business and grow the number of our dairy farms in
China, commencing with the construction of another five-farm hub in Inner Mongolia. We
have entered into a framework agreement with the Chifeng City Government of Inner
Mongolia for the construction of this new five-farm hub, and we intend to begin construction
on the first farm before the end of 2014 and to complete the second five-farm hub in 2018.
See Use of Proceeds. We expect the second hub to increase our total herd size in China to
approximately 120,000 heads of cattle by the end of 2018. For the construction and operation
of the second hub, we plan to replicate our current farm designs and operating systems in
order to achieve similar productivity to our current farms. We believe that this expansion will
allow us to capitalize on the current supply deficit for premium milk in China and to enlarge
our footprint as a leading premium milk producer in Asia.
Continue to grow and enhance the profitability of our core poultry business in
Indonesia
Our poultry operations in Indonesia are a core part of our business, providing us with the
strong foundation of a profitable, growing and cash flow-generative business segment. We
believe there are significant opportunities for growing this business as Indonesias per capita
118
income continues to rise and as we increase our feed capacity, our DOC production and the
reach of our downstream consumer brands. We plan to continue to build breeding farms and
aim to expand our production of DOCs from almost 600 million in 2013 by approximately 30%
in the next two years. In 2013, we invested approximately IDR492.4 million (US$47.2 million)
into growing our production capacity for DOCs in Indonesia, which consisted primarily of
construction of new breeding farms and hatcheries. We expect that this additional capacity,
along with additional capital expenditures into our DOC production capacity in 2014, will
underpin our growth plans for DOC production in Indonesia over the next two years. As we
grow our DOC production, we also intend to increase our feed capacity and production to
support our growth in DOCs.
To cater for more DOCs and to account for a shift in consumer preferences toward highquality processed foods, we plan to increase the capacity of our existing slaughterhouses and
to build additional slaughterhouses. Depending on the extent of these developments, we may
double our processing capacity in the next several years, and we expect that our sales from
processed or dressed poultry will increase as a proportion of our total sales.
Expand our animal protein business in our target markets
As we expect consumption of animal proteins to increase in Asia, we intend to expand our
animal protein business in certain of our five target markets. For example, we intend to
replicate our industrialized approach to farming in order to establish a market-leading position
for swine in Vietnam and to expand our poultry operations in Myanmar. Similarly, in China, we
intend to draw upon synergies with the expansion of our dairy business in order to grow our
beef operations. Across our five classes of proteins and our five target markets, we may
consider opportunities for acquiring existing businesses on a case-by-case basis. We
currently have no specific plans to expand into new animal proteins or new geographies
beyond that in which we currently operate.
Build on our high-growth consumer food brands
We believe that our consumer food business has significant potential for future growth, due to
the high value-add nature of the business, our competitive advantage resulting from our
vertical integration and the shifting preferences of consumers. We intend to capitalize on this
growth potential over the medium to long term by continuing to invest in our consumer food
business, both for ambient temperature meat products and chilled or frozen meat products.
We will seek to expand the reputation and market reach of our consumer food brands,
including Real Good for mass market UHT milk and So Good and So Nice for processed
meats. To that end, we intend to increase our manufacturing and processing capacity in
Indonesia and Vietnam and to expand our distribution capabilities in Indonesia, Vietnam and
Myanmar.

In China, we produce premium raw milk that is at the top of the market in terms of both quality
and price, and we sell that milk to some of Chinas leading dairy companies for the production
of premium fresh milk and other high-end processed dairy products. We recently passed the
audit process of Starbucks China to supply them with milk processed and packaged from raw
milk produced at Farm 2 in China and branded under our L Tian Yuan (
) brand.
In Indonesia, we do not sell the raw milk we produce but instead operate a vertically
integrated dairy business that includes the production of premium raw milk for use in our own
downstream production and distribution of premium processed dairy products, such as fresh
milk, cheese and whipping cream. We market these downstream dairy products under our
leading Greenfields brand in Indonesia, and we also export a portion of these products to
other markets in Asia, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia and the Philippines.
120
Our dairy farms are able to achieve significantly higher-yielding and higher-quality milk than
smaller-scale farms and most other larger scale farms in China. This has enabled us to
produce raw milk of a quality that consistently surpasses international nutritional and safety
standards and to sell our raw milk at premium prices. In 2013, for example, the average
selling price of our raw milk was RMB 4.51 per kilogram in China, which was approximately
25% higher than the average selling price of RMB 3.6 per kilogram for raw milk from ten
major production regions in China. See Appendix FIndependent Market Research on
Selected Food Markets in Indonesia, China, India, Vietnam and Myanmar.
We operate a five-farm hub of dairy farms in Shandong province, China, with four of the
dairy farms currently in the operational stage and the fifth farm under construction. We expect
construction of the fifth farm to be completed by the end of 2014 and the farm to commence
producing milk in early 2015. Our approach in constructing our dairy farms is to create a
standardized model that is highly industrialized, efficient and easily replicable, both in terms of
construction and in terms of operation. To this end, we developed the first five-farm hub in
Shandong, where we constructed five farms of substantially identical design and similar size,
each holding between 10,000 and 12,000 heads of cattle. This approach creates operational
efficiencies, enables us to construct additional farms more efficiently and without having to
design the new farm from scratch, and allows us to move personnel from one farm to another
more effectively. We intend to follow this standardized farm model as we expand to our
second five-farm hub in China. In April 2014 we entered into a framework agreement with the
Chifeng City Government, a prefecture-level city in eastern Inner Mongolia approximately
500km north of Beijing, that provides a basic framework for our acquisition of land and our
construction of a second five-farm hub in China. Pursuant to the agreement, we expect to
begin construction on the first of these five large, modern farms before the end of 2014 and to
complete the second five-farm hub in 2018. On July 12, 2014, we entered into conditional
lease agreements in respect of two sites in Chifeng for the construction of new farms with the
Alukerqin County Government. We expect this five-farm hub to have an aggregate holding
capacity of 60,000 cattle. We have chosen Chifeng as the location of our second five-farm
hub as it has abundant cropping land available to be leased to us, corn and alfalfa plantations
in the vicinity, suitable temperature and climatic condition for cattle farming and abundant
water sources. We expect completion of this second hub to increase the total size of our herd
in China to approximately 120,000 heads of cattle. Save in respect of the second five-farm
hub in Inner Mongolia, we currently have no other plans to expand our dairy farms in China.
However, if commercially viable, we may consider constructing a milk processing facility.
In Indonesia we operate one milk-producing dairy farm and one dairy processing plant for our
downstream dairy products, both located in Malang, East Java, Indonesia. In addition, we
have purchased land for a second dairy farm in Blitar, East Java, and we aim to begin
producing milk at this farm in the first half of 2016.

We strategically locate our farms in Shandong province because this area has cool and dry
weather, clean air and water, and an abundance of flat fertile land, which makes it suitable for
raising high-quality dairy cows and producing premium raw milk. In addition, Shandong
province lies in between Beijing and Shanghai and as such, our farms are in close proximity
to the processing facilities of our customers and to our suppliers of key raw materials (such as
corn silage, corn flake and cotton seeds) required for our dairy farming operations.
In Indonesia, we have one integrated operational dairy farm and one dairy product processing
plant, both located in Malang, East Java. Our farm is located 1,200 meters above sea level in
a region with dry weather and cool temperatures, to make it suitable for raising high-quality
dairy cows and producing premium raw milk. The farm also has good access to water and is
located away from populous areas. In addition, we have purchased land for a second dairy
farm with an area of 60 hectares and a capacity of 8,000 cows, located in close proximity to
the first farm. We have commenced preparatory work for the construction of the second farm
and expect to begin producing milk at this farm in the first half of 2016.

Breeding
For our dairy farms in China and Indonesia, we import female dairy Holstein heifers older than
10 months from Australia or New Zealand for the early stages of our operations. The selection
process for such imports is carried out via the Dairy Herd Improvement Association
computerized system and then through individual physical inspection and approval. Once the
heifer is selected and declared fit, it is then prepared in Australia or New Zealand before
being shipped to our dairy farms. Heifers are then artificially inseminated with semen from
high-quality bulls to begin the breeding cycle. After the birth of the calf, the heifer begins to
produce raw milk, which we collect for sale or for use in our downstream processing. We
currently sell all male calves (approximately RMB1,100 or IDR2 million per head) to third
parties, but, in the case of China, will increasingly transfer them to our own beef feedlot
operations in China. In our dairy farms, we raise the female calves until they reach a suitable
age for insemination and the breeding cycle is repeated. After an initial breeding phase, we
can use our own heifers for growing our herd further, as well as for starting a new herd when
we open a new farm. To populate our new dairy farms we intend to use both heifers and
milking cows from our existing dairy farms and to import new heifers and milking cows as
required.
124
We breed our own high-quality Holstein dairy cows to support our own farms in China and
Indonesia. We use artificial insemination technologies to breed our dairy cows and we use
high-quality bull semen purchased from the United States. We usually request our suppliers
to provide us with a list of the most productive Holstein bulls of that year. Taking into
consideration factors such as the milk yield of the bulls offspring, age, type of dairy cow and
the nutritional content of the raw milk produced by the bulls offspring, we select the most
suitable semen that we believe will optimize the genetic mix of our dairy cows. We use sexcontrolled semen for mature heifers in order to achieve female calf birth rates of
approximately 80%, which is significantly higher than normal female birth rates and which
enables us to more aggressively grow the herd. Our suppliers of Hostein bull semen provide
after-sales services and training to our staff in relation to disease control and breeding
techniques.
It typically takes a new born female calf approximately 14 months to become a heifer of the
appropriate breeding weight. At this stage, the heifer will be inseminated. After calving, the
lactation period begins and the cow is typically milked for approximately 305 to 340 days. A
cow has the highest milk production six to eight weeks after calving, after which its milk
production will decrease. A sufficient dry period is required to maximize the cows milk
production post-calving, and typically the cow is given a dry period of approximately
50 to 60 days prior to the next insemination.
Feeding
Our feed includes concentrates and forages. Concentrates, which primarily consist of corn,
soybean meal and cotton seed meal, are easily accessible commodities in China and
Indonesia. Forages consist mainly of corn silage, grass forage and alfalfa. We select
suppliers based on the feeds quality and price. Corn silage can only be harvested once a
year in China, during the period from August to September. As a result, we store a years
supply of corn silage in China to avoid any interruption of feed supply. We store at least two
months supply of alfalfa.
The feed nutrients required by each dairy cow can vary depending on a number of factors,
such as age, stage of lactation and milk production level. Our feed ration is in line with the
formula and practice used in California but tailored for our conditions in China and Indonesia.
We adopt total mixed ration, which involves the weighing and blending of all feedstuffs into a
complete ration to provide adequate nourishment to meet the dietary requirement of dairy
cows and to ensure well-balanced feed intake. The milk quality and yield of a dairy cow are
largely determined by the nutritional composition of its feed. We supplement our feed
composition with vitamins and minerals to further improve the average dairy cows daily
nutritional intake and digestion of our dairy cows. We do not use hormonal growth substances
to feed our dairy cows.
We take measures to ensure the good health of our female calves. We feed them colostrum
as soon as they are born, following which we switch to regular milk and feed them
approximately six litres of regular milk per day for eight weeks. In addition to milk, we feed the
female calves with grains and water. Once they begin to consume approximately one-and-ahalf kilograms of grain per day for three consecutive days, they are ready for weaning and are
kept on the same calf grain for one more week before we feed them with a calf grower.
Herd Management Technologies
We rely to a large extent on the US Herd Information System (Dairy Star) for the management
of our dairy farms. Our cattle in China and Indonesia are specifically identified by way of radio
frequency cow tags which are linked to the US Herd Information System (Dairy Star). This
software allows us to monitor each cow in terms of its basic information, genetic connection,
medical history and milk yield and also allows us to track every step of the production
125
process, including the breeding cycle. We perform a full stock-take on our dairy cows on a
quarterly basis.
The software generates various types of reminders to prevent mistakes due to employee
negligence or misconduct, including, among other things, the dry period reminders for
pregnant milking cows, the insemination reminders for mature heifers, the weaning reminders
for female calves and the barn-switching reminders. The US Herd Information System (Dairy
Star) improves the operating efficiency of our dairy farms and accuracy of our herd
management. Additionally, the software allows us to track the family tree of all bulls whose
semen we have used for insemination. We utilize this software to avoid utilizing semen from a
bull to inseminate any offspring of the same bull.
Furthermore, this software is capable of generating various types of reports regarding
different aspects of our operation, including but not limited to reports on different groups of
cows, reports on the daily milk yield per cow and reports on total milk yield. This software
consolidates all the information of our farms on a single network in each of China and
Indonesia to allow central monitoring and data analysis, which greatly enhances the
uniformity and standardization of our farm management.
Additionally, we utilize an automated activity monitoring system for heat detection to
determine the best time to inseminate our cows, thereby improving the rate of successful
inseminations and leading to a higher rate of pregnancies, shortened calving periods and
increased milk yields.
Cattle Welfare and Disease Control
It is our philosophy to give priority to cattle welfare. Cows produce more milk, have fewer
health problems and live longer if they live in a comfortable environment. We equip our dairy
farms with free-stall ventilated barns, which allow the cows to walk freely between the
bedding and the feeding area. As bedding material, we use high quality sand, which is
believed to be the most comfortable material for cows and is known for its ability to control the
spread of mastitis in cattle housing. To prevent cows from slipping and incurring feet injury,
we utilize non-slip grooves in cow barns and non-slip matting in milking halls and passways
from cow barns to the milking halls. Furthermore, we house our female calves in naturally
ventilated barns in China, which are heated during the winter months to keep them warm.
We have implemented a strict and effective disease control policy to maintain the overall
health of our herd. We perform routine checks on our dairy cows twice daily for our dairy
farms in China and Indonesia. In China from mid-November to mid-May every year, extra
monitoring is undertaken as diseases tend to be more prevalent during the colder months.
The incidence and prevalence of lameness and mastitis, the two most common diseases
affecting dairy farms, is relatively low in our farms. This is attributable to our good hygiene
practices, our well-managed free stalls, the clean environment of our facilities and our
attention to the health and welfare of our cattle.
Infectious diseases, such as FMD, brucellosis and bovine TB, are the major threats to the
dairy farming industry. We have adopted several disease control measures at our dairy farms,
including regular administration, typically on a quarterly basis, of the FMD vaccination and
regular testing for brucellosis and bovine TB. We vaccinate all of our female calves that are
over three months of age and the whole herd four times a year as part of our FMD prevention
measures. Because there is no vaccine to prevent bovine TB, we conduct regular testing of
the herd to keep the herd clean. We also require our employees to conduct regular testing to
make sure they do not carry the disease to the farm. To prevent brucellosis, a disease that
can spread quickly and lead to miscarriages, we regularly examine the herds at all of our
farms. Where there is risk of infection, we carry out farm-wide disinfection and immunization
to prevent the spread of the disease.
126
We have established disease control committees at all of our dairy farms, comprising our farm
managers, veterinary personnel and heads of each department. Upon detecting a disease
outbreak, we immediately quarantine the diseased dairy cows in a secured barn and carry out
farm-wide inspections and disinfection procedures to prevent the spread of the disease. We
also suspend the transfer of cows between different barns. In addition, we are required to file
reports with the local veterinary bureaus regarding any outbreak of classified diseases, such
as FMD.
We have not experienced any major outbreaks of diseases in our dairy farms in China and
Indonesia.
Quarantine and Treatment of Diseased and Dead Cows
We quarantine our diseased dairy cows in separate barns and our veterinary personnel
inspect them regularly. We seek prompt and appropriate treatment for our dairy cows. Where
medical treatment is not cost-effective or not feasible, the diseased dairy cows are culled, and
the affected areas are disinfected. Dairy cows that have been cured of any disease are milked
in a separate milking hall until their milk passes all of our tests and examinations. Generally,
dead cows and aborted foetuses are treated with quicklime which corrodes and disinfects the
carcasses before they are buried in specific and designated areas. The local government in
China is building a carcasses treatment facility expected to be operational by the third quarter
of this year. We plan to make full use of this government-initiated facility for treatment of dead
cows.
Strict Farm and Production Facility Protocol
Employees are required to change and disinfect themselves before entering the production
facilities and vehicles must be disinfected before entering the farm. If employees are returning
from a period of leave from work, they are required to be disinfected under UV rays for half an
hour before they are allowed back in the production facility. In addition, unauthorized vehicles,
persons, animals and equipment are prohibited from entering the farm. We disinfect our staff
living quarters, milking halls and our veterinary hospital regularly. For example, we disinfect
the veterinary hospital every day. Employees are required to wear gloves when handling dairy
cows or milk.
Waste Management and Environmental Issues
Dairy cows produce huge amounts of waste in the form of excrement and urine. We have
designed a comprehensive recycling system in each farm in China and Indonesia. Waste
water, following filtration, is recycled for cleaning and flushing barns. Manure is dried and
utilized by surrounding farmers as fertilizers for cropping which is used for our feed
production. Our farm design utilizes efficient and effective ways of effluent management using
specialized separation units. We have also undertaken the construction of bio-gas and waste
water treatment facilities as well as a large-scale waste water lagoon, rain water separation
system and the roofing of heifer barns to complete our environmental protection facilities.
Our Production Processes
We use automated milking systems at each of our dairy farms. The milk production process
comprises the following steps:
Pre-milking sterilizationbefore milking, the udders and teats of milking cows are
sprayed with sanitizing fluids. We also clean and sterilize the teat cups before milking.
Cleaningthe udders and teats of milking cows are wiped dry with dry towels within
30 seconds after sterilization.
Testingto ensure the quality and safety of raw milk, we discard the first three squeezes
of raw milk from the milking cows. Our dairy workers also check the health condition of
127
the milking cows udders at this stage. Upon observation of any signs of mastitis, the
milking cow will be immediately quarantined and checked by our veterinary personnel.
Milkingto commence the milking process, the dairy workers will attach the teat cups,
which are connected directly to a central milk tank, to our milking cows udders promptly
after finishing the above procedures to minimize the risk of infection.
Coolingthe raw milk produced from milking cows is immediately cooled to around 4 C.
Central collectionwe pipe all milk directly to our central milk tank and store the milk at
around 4 C.
Deliverywe directly pipe the raw milk from our central milk tank to the trucks of our
customers, who collect the raw milk at our farms.
All the pasteurization, sterilization and packing machines at our dairy farm in Indonesia are
controlled by a programmable logic controller to ensure a smooth flow of operations. For
packing, our Indonesian dairy farm uses TetraPak processing machines as well as TetraPak
and Evergreen filling machines. Our Indonesian dairy farm received ISO 22000 certification
for systematic procedure from Good Manufacturing Practice and Hazard Analysis and Critical
Control Point (HACCP) in November 2007.
Our Dairy Products
We use our premium raw milk produced in Indonesia to produce the following processed and
packaged premium dairy products:
Greenfields Extended Shelf Life Pasteurized Milk
Our Greenfields extended shelf life milk is ultra pasteurized to eliminate bacteria. To preserve
the freshness, the product is kept refrigerated at between 2 C and 4 C. Our full cream milk
does not contain any preservatives, additives, milk powder, hormones or antibiotics but
contains naturally occurring protein, vitamins and essential minerals such as calcium. The
milk is packed in Tetra or Evergreen packs in sizes of 1,000 ml, 946 ml, 500 ml, 236 ml and
200 ml in aseptic cartons and its shelf life is up to 40 days. We have also introduced a 2-litre
version in the form of plastic bottles with a shelf life of up to 28 days. Greenfields extended
shelf life pasteurized milk is available in five variants: full cream, low fat, skimmed, chocolate
and mochaccino. All Greenfields extended shelf life pasteurized milk is produced from our
own integrated dairy farm and milk processing facility, thereby guaranteeing the integrity of
the supply chain and ensuring full traceability of our Greenfields milk products.
Greenfields Ultra High Temperature Milk
Our ultra high temperature (UHT) milk is processed using UHT sterilization technology to
eliminate bacteria while preserving its freshness. The milk is packed in 1,000 ml TetraPak
aseptic cartons and the product shelf life is up to 9 months. Our Greenfields full cream UHT
milk does not contain any preservatives, additives, milk powder, hormones or antibiotics but
contains naturally occurring protein, vitamins and essential minerals such as calcium.
Greenfields UHT milk is available in four variants: full cream, low fat, skimmed and chocomalt.
The milk used for our UHT milk is generally sourced from external sources.
Greenfields UHT Whipping Cream
Greenfields whipping cream is made from premium fresh milk and produced using modern
methods and equipment so as to preserve its freshness and quality. Greenfields whipping
cream is available in 1,000 ml TetraPak cartons and has a product shelf life of up to six
months.
128
Our procurement department is responsible for acquiring feed, selecting suitable suppliers,
and coordinating with our quality control personnel to ensure that the delivered feed meets
our specifications and requirements. We source feed products from carefully selected feed
suppliers in and outside China and Indonesia to ensure reliable and high-quality feed
supplies. We select suppliers mainly through mutual negotiation, which enables us to procure
high-quality feed at reasonable costs. We compare the quality and prices of feed from several
suppliers, where possible, and consider each suppliers ability and track record to satisfy our
volume and delivery requirements. We provide specifications to our suppliers for feed,
including certain percentages of protein for calf feed, freshness requirement for alfalfa and a
certain percentage of water content for cotton seed meal. We procure almost all the feed from
multiple suppliers at the same time to minimize our dependence on any single supplier.
We have not entered into any long-term contracts with any of our suppliers. We maintain
good relationships with our feed suppliers. Because of our scale and the quantity of the feed
we typically purchase, we are able to obtain favorable prices for many of our concentrate
components. For our forage supplies, we generally enter into short-term purchase
agreements shorter than five months to purchase high-quality imported alfalfa. For corn
silage, we generally enter into short-term purchase agreements of between eight and
12 months with local suppliers, under which the local suppliers grow the corn silage according
to our specifications. We harvest the corn silage using large-scale harvesters to ensure the
quality of the corn silage. We maintain the right to refuse the delivery of concentrates and
forages if the feed fails to meet our standards.
OUR ANIMAL PROTEIN SEGMENT

Our animal protein operations are vertically integrated and cover the full value chain of animal
protein production, from animal feed to breeding and commercial farming to slaughtering and
processing livestock and supplying the raw materials for our downstream consumer food
segment (see Our Consumer Food Segment). We operate in Indonesia (where we have
vertically integrated poultry and beef operations as well as aquaculture operations), Vietnam
(where we have vertically integrated swine and poultry operations), India (where we have
vertically integrated poultry operations), Myanmar (where we have vertically integrated poultry
operations) and China (where we have beef operations). We acquired our operations in
Vietnam effective September 1, 2012. In Myanmar, we entered into a joint venture agreement
with Best Livestock Limited for the formation of our subsidiary Japfa Comfeed Myanmar Pte.
Ltd. effective from December 3, 2013, which commenced operations from January 1, 2014.
Japfa Comfeed Myanmar Pte. Ltd is 85.0% held by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Japfa
Myanmar JV Pte. Ltd., and 15.0% held by Best Livestock Limited.

As part of our animal feed operations, we produce specially formulated feed for poultry, swine
and aquaculture which we either sell directly to third parties or use internally for our breeding
operations. At our breeding farms, we breed high-performance DOCs, swine and beef cattle
based on an industrialized approach to ensure the consistency, quality and conversion ratio of
our breeds. In 2013, we sold approximately 7% of our DOCs produced in Indonesia internally
to our own commercial farms for growing out, with the remainder sold to contract farms or
third parties. The majority of broilers produced by our commercial farms are sold live to
poultry traders who distribute the broiler to the wet markets. Our commercial farming
operations involve grow-out feedlotting of our commercial broiler chicken, swine and cattle
which are then typically sold to third parties. A small percentage of our commercial broiler
chicken is also sent to our slaughterhouses and primary processing plants and then sold as
chilled or frozen whole chicken, chicken parts or chicken meat to restaurants and fast food
chains or for use as raw material by our consumer food segment.
Our animal protein segment contributed US$1,762.6 million, US$2,010.3 million, US$2,347.2
million and US$592.9 million, representing approximately 87%, 87%, 87% and 86% of our
Groups total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and the three
month period ended March 31, 2014, respectively.
The vertical integration of our animal protein production chain can be seen in the following
four principal steps:
Feedmill
Commercial
Farming
Primary
Processing
Breeding
Our operations include each of the steps in this value chain for poultry and swine and most of
the steps for our other proteins.

This market share data has been compiled by Frost & Sullivan (S) Pte Ltd, the Industry Consultant. As DOC production
output numbers were not publicly available for the major industry players, the Industry Consultant used production capacity
numbers (which were publicly available for the major industry players) as a proxy to calculate market shares for DOCs.

Poultry Feed
As of March 31, 2014, we operated 16 poultry feedmills in nine locations throughout
Indonesia; five poultry feedmills in Vietnam (which also produce swine feed); and five poultry
feedmills in India. We have constructed a feedmill in Myanmar which is now partially
operational and which we expect to be fully operational by August 2014. For the years ended
December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014, the
utilization rates (calculated as actual production output divided by production capacity) of our
poultry feedmills in Indonesia were 76%, 77%, 70% and 71% respectively.

Raw materials such as corn and soybean meal are ground before they are weighed and
dosed under an automated system. After dosing, the raw materials are mixed until they
become homogenous in our mixers before being sent to the pellet machines where they are
processed into pellets or crumble feed. Approximately 7% of the feed is bagged in mashed
form after mixing. The finished products are finally packed into plastic woven bags and stored
in warehouses dedicated to storing finished products.
Production of Customized Poultry Feed
Our poultry feed in pellet, crumble or mashed form can be fed directly to poultry. We market
our poultry feed under the Comfeed and Benefeed brands in Indonesia; Comfeed, Profeed
and Bonafeed brands in Vietnam and Comfeed and Benefeed brands in India. We offer a
range of poultry feed targeted at each stage of a birds maturity cycle with size of a pellet or
crumble and with nutritional content adjusted to maximize the development of the bird at each
stage of maturity. We also produce breeder feed and operate three dedicated breeder
feedmills. We are the only company in Indonesia with specialized breeder feedmills. These
feedmills ensure no mixing of different types of feeds, thus enhancing bio-security by
minimizing cross-contamination from broiler feeds.
We believe that our success in feed production is primarily attributable to our feed formulation
expertise. Our qualified nutritionists utilize a range of raw materials to create feed formulas
that are tailored to the particular breeds and climatic conditions in Indonesia, Myanmar, India
and Vietnam. We offer poultry feed that is customized to the needs of different poultry types,
namely feed that caters to the age of the broilers, feed for the breeder DOCs, feed for the
layer DOCs and feed for the layer. We also offer poultry feed which is specifically customized
for the Indian River DOCs, that we source from Aviagen.
133
We believe that our ability to customize our feed offers an important benefit to our customers
as specifically formulated poultry feed has been proven to enhance growth rates, while also
being cost efficient. Our poultry feed products are continually reformulated to take into
account research developments, particularly relating to nutrition and health of the poultry and
with the goal of reducing the consumption of each bird required to grow it to maturity and the
amount of time such maturity process typically requires.
In Indonesia, we have been successful in reducing the feed conversion ratio (i.e. total
amount of feed required per bird kilogram) on average from 1.737 kilograms per bird kilogram
to 1.636 kilograms per bird kilogram in the period from December 31, 2007 to December 31,
2013 and the average maturing period from 35.1 days to 32.7 days in the same period.
Procurement of Raw Materials
Raw materials account for approximately 90.0% of our poultry feed production costs. We
procure raw materials for our feed production segment from international suppliers via
Annona Pte. Ltd. (Annona), our wholly-owned subsidiary. Annona trades in agricultural
products and is the procurement arm for all feedmills across our Group. Annona purchases
raw materials such as corn and soybean meal, feed vitamins, animal protein meal and wheat
products from the US, South America, China, India, Europe, Australia and Canada. Aside
from economies of scale, the benefits of having centralized raw material procurement through
Annona include uniformity and tax incentives (as a result of Annona being part of the Global
Trader Programme). We believe that we are competitively placed to secure a stable supply of
raw materials at competitive prices from both domestic and international suppliers, many of
whom have established relationships with us. Annona also works with the production units
within our Group to ensure that the raw materials reach the feedmills in Indonesia, Vietnam,
India and Myanmar in a timely manner.
Typically 50.0% of our poultry feed mix is made up of corn, which provides a carbohydrate
component, with other principal ingredients including soybean meal, which provides a protein
component. Other components may also include rice bran, wheat bran, meat-bone meal, fish
meal, tapioca and vitamins. Depending on market prices, we may also utilize corn substitutes
including wheat, broken rice, sorghum and tapioca. For the year December 31, 2013 and the
three months ended March 31, 2014, approximately 45% and 41% of the corn we purchased
was sourced primarily from Annona. Our corn dryers are strategically located near corn belts
to ensure better access to fresh local corn supplies and to leverage on seasonal supply
fluctuations. We are able to buy and store corn at our storage facilities when market prices
are low. Corn that has been dried can typically be stored for approximately six months. Our
inventory levels may vary depending on whether it is a harvest season or festive season. We
generally maintain two to three months inventory of our raw materials. These capabilities to
source corn domestically enable us to lower our costs. In 2013, we set up Comfeed Trading
B.V., a company incorporated in the Netherlands to trade and procure commodities and
vitamins.
Our corn and soybean meal are imported primarily from Argentina, Brazil, and India. Although
the precise formula of our poultry feed varies and is determined, at least in part, by the
availability and prevailing market prices of raw materials and corn in particular, we seek to
produce poultry feed of consistent quality.
Quality Control
We conduct checks on all incoming raw materials so that only raw materials that meet the
quality standards determined by our quality control department are unloaded into our
warehouses. We operate an advanced feed technology system which includes a stringent
quality assurance program, in addition to which we conduct regular bench-marking activities,
including laboratory tests. 15 of our 16 feedmills in Indonesia have ISO 9001:2000
certification with the remaining one feedmill expected to receive such certification in 2015.
134
Our feedmills in Vietnam have also obtained ISO 9001:2008 certification, while the Supa
feedmill in India has obtained ISO 9001:2008 certification.
Customers
In Indonesia we sell approximately 60% of our poultry feed production directly to domestic
farmers and independent distributors located throughout Indonesia, using an in-house sales
team, with the remaining 40% utilized in our DOC breeding and commercial farming business.
Our top five poultry feed external customers accounted for 10.9%, 12.5%, 11.7% and 13.2%
of our net sales in poultry feed for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and
the three months ended March 31, 2014, respectively with no single customer exceeding 5%
of total net sales of our Indonesian poultry operations.
In addition, our feed production operations include certain supporting businesses. Our factory
in Wonoayu, East Java, for example, sold approximately 6.7 million kilograms of feed bags in
2012 and 6.2 million kilograms of feed bags in 2013, which we used to pack our poultry and
aqua-feed products. On a smaller scale, we also have operations in trading excess corn and
selling copra pellets and edible oils.
Breeding
We operate 57 DOC breeding farms and 24 hatcheries in Indonesia; 12 DOC breeding farms
and four hatcheries in Vietnam; one DOC breeding farm and one hatchery in Myanmar; and
two DOC breeding farms and three hatcheries in India. These facilities are enclosed and
climate controlled and are typically located in isolated areas which offer improved levels of
biosecurity.

In Indonesia, most of our broiler grandparent stock DOCs are sourced from Aviagen, which
supplies our Indian River broiler DOCs that are sent to our grandparent stock breeding farms.
Long-term cooperation with Aviagen has resulted in the refinement of this breed to suit
Indonesias tropical climate, leading to improved production performance. This is also linked
to the development of optimal-performance feed formulations which are produced in our
feedmills. Our contracts with Aviagen and its subsidiaries provide us with the rights to sell and
distribute Indian River DOC in Indonesia and other jurisdictions approved by Aviagen and
provide for the purchase of grandparent stock DOC at preset contract prices, which we
believe acts as a significant barrier to entry for potential new competitors and provides us with
a key advantage over our competitors. In June 2014, we entered into a joint venture with
Aviagen International in relation to the production of Indian River parent stock for our breeding
operations in India. We expect this joint venture to provide our operations in India with greater
135
control and reliability on the quality of India River parent stock DOCs. We also import
grandparent stock for our layer hens from Lohmann Tierzucht.
The Indonesian grandparent stock remain at our grandparent stock breeding farms for a
period of approximately 24 weeks (known as the growing period), after which the
grandparent stock reach reproductive maturity (from weeks 25 to 67). During this period,
fertilization occurs and hatching eggs are produced, which are then sent to our grandparent
stock central hatchery. Fertilized hatching eggs are placed in a holding room for a maximum
period of seven days, after which they are placed in an industrial incubator for 21 days (18
days in a setter and three days in a hatcher) to produce our parent stock. The parent stock
undergoes the same process at our parent stock breeding farms to produce final stock DOC.

Commercial Farming
We carry out commercial broiler farming operations through (i) farms that we either own or
operate on lease (Company Farms) or (ii) farms that are owned or rented by external
commercial farmers, with whom we have contract farming arrangements (Contract Farms).
In Indonesia, approximately 88% of our commercial farming operations in 2013 were through
contract farmers, who grow-out broiler DOCs to sizes that can be sold in the market, in
accordance with standard operating procedures established by us. The remaining 12% of our
commercial farming operations were through our Company Farms. As of March 31, 2014, we
owned 100 Company Farms and had in excess of 9,200 Contract Farms in locations
throughout Indonesia; 510 Contract Farms in India; and 271 farms in Vietnam (of which 33
were Company Farms and 238 were Contract Farms).
We operate Company Farms ourselves and the licenses and permits relating to the
operations and assets of the farms are held by us. On the other hand, Contract Farms are
operated by external commercial farmers with whom we have contract farming arrangements.
Licenses and permits relating to the operations and assets of the farm are held by the
contract farmer. Under our contract farming arrangements, we provide feed, DOCs,
medicines and vaccinations and technical support to the contract farmers. At harvest time, we
control sales of mature chickens produced at the Contract Farms. The mature chickens
produced at Contract Farms are mainly sold as live chickens, with a proportion used in our
poultry processing business segment. To ensure efficiency and performance, we require
contract farmers to implement our farm management techniques, including requirements as to
feed and vaccinations. Our contract farmers are primarily independent local commercial
farmers. The rationales for this farming model are that it gives us increased flexibility in
adjusting to fluctuations in regional demand, provides access to markets which are not
covered by our own commercial farms and minimizes our capital expenditure requirements
relating to our commercial farming operations. In addition, through profit-sharing
arrangements, our contract farmers are incentivized to improve productivity in the farming of
chickens. At the end of each growing period, the contract farmers receive their share of profits
calculated by reference to certain agreed-upon key performance indicators. Our contract
farming arrangements are typically for each grow-out cycle, so effectively after each harvest,
the contract farmer is free to switch to another producer of DOCs and feed.
The broilers produced by our Company Farms are mainly used in our poultry processing
business segment and for sale as live birds. Commercial farming in our Company Farms
provides us with the ability to control the quality and size of the broiler produced for our
poultry processing plants.
Primary Processing
We have slaughtering and primary processing operations in Indonesia. In Indonesia
approximately 80% of poultry is sold as live birds or as fresh meat at traditional wet markets,
some of which also act as slaughter yards. As of December 31, 2013, we operated six
slaughtering and primary processing plants in Bogor, Bali, Makassar, Salatiga, Purwakarta
and Sidoarjo, with a combined annual production capacity of 75.2 million kilograms as of
December 31, 2013. Our finished products include chilled or frozen whole chicken, chicken
parts and chicken meat. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and the
three months ended March 31, 2014, the utilization rates of our poultry processing facilities
were approximately 91%, 88%, 34% and 37%, respectively. The utilization rate of our poultry
processing facilities decreased in the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 due to the
commencement of operations at our processing plants in Purwakarta and Sidoarjo, Indonesia.
Through our modern processing plants, we are able to meet stringent customer demand for
traceability, consistency, freshness and hygiene. Our products have been certified as having
met the highest quality standards within the industry, and we have HACCP and halal
certifications.
137
farm is sent to our grandparent farms. Subsequently, parent stock produced at our
grandparent farms is sent either to our nursery farms, where piglets of 20 kilograms weight
are produced, or to our fattening farms, where they are fattened to 100 kilograms. Our piglets
are typically sold to distributors who further sell onwards to farmers. A small proportion of our
piglets are also sold directly to large farmers. The 100 kilograms swine produced at our
fattening farms are sold directly to slaughterhouses.
We are able to offer a combination of high quality piglets along with our specially formulated
swine feed to farmers.
Our Beef Cattle Operations
We have beef operations in Indonesia and China. Our beef operations in Indonesia are
integrated from breeding, fattening and processing. We have one of the largest beef cattle
feedlot operations in Indonesia and are the largest importer of live beef cattle into Indonesia
by import permits. As of March 31, 2014, we had four beef cattle feedlots, one beef breedlot
and one slaughterhouse located in Indonesia. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012
and 2013, the production capacity of our beef cattle feedlots was 165,000 head of cattle per
year. The utilization rate of our beef cattle feedlots for the years ended December 31, 2011,
2012 and 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 61%, 54%, 35% and 38%,
respectively. We sell the majority of our beef cattle to our customers who then slaughter and
deliver beef to our wet markets. Our beef cattle business segment focuses on fattening our
beef cattle from approximately 300 kilograms to approximately 500 kilograms.
In October 2013, we expanded our cattle breeding operations into Australia by completing the
acquisition of a cattle breeding station (Riveren Station and Inverway Station), in Northern
Territory, Australia, from which we import cattle into Indonesia. Both stations are located in
the Victorian River Downs area in Northern Territory of Australia and have a combined area of
555,000 hectares with a carrying capacity of 45,000 heads of cattle, which are predominantly
of the Brahman cross breed. The Australian cattle stations have a production capacity of
approximately 12,000 heads of cattle per year, which are sent to our feedlets in Indonesia for
fattening.
In addition to our operations in Indonesia, we are developing a 30,000 head feedlot in the
Hekou district in the Shandong province of China. The total area of the feedlot is 200 hectares
with an additional 500 hectares for cultivation. We completed construction of a part of the
feedlot in October 2013 and began housing and feeding Holstein bull calves in December
2013. Construction of the initial phase of the feedlot is under progress and is expected to be
completed by the end of 2014. The bull calves born at our dairy farms in China will be raised
in our feedlot and will provide a source of cattle for our beef business, thereby providing
integration across our dairy and animal protein beef segments.

Our breeder cattle undergo natural or artificial insemination at our breeding farms after which
they are pregnant for approximately nine months. The calves then grow for a period of
approximately 12 months before they are sent to our feedlots as feeder cattle. After a period
of approximately three months during which the feeder cattle undergo the fattening process at
the feedlots, the cattle will be sent to the wet markets for sale to distributors, or to our abattoir
for processing into beef products for consumption. Breeding is a relatively small component of
our beef cattle operations and the majority of our beef cattle operations relates to the fattening
stage.
Our Aquaculture Operations
Aquaculture Feed
Our aquaculture operations are managed by our subsidiary, PT Suri Tani Pemuka, which is a
leading producer of aqua-feed in Indonesia with minor interests in fish and shrimp ponds.
For the year ended December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014,
approximately 88% and 81% of our net sales from our aquaculture business were derived
from our aqua-feed business respectively. Our aqua-feed has many of the same basic
components as our poultry feed, although there are differences in the production process. We
believe we offer customers a complete solution to the growth requirements of aqua-life. All of
our floating feed is specific-pathogenic free which makes it less susceptible to bacterial
contamination. We offer two premium aqua-feed brands, Comfeed and Benefeed. Most of the
aquafeed that we currently produce is sold directly to local farmers and independent
distributors located throughout Indonesia. We will increase our aqua-feed production by
140
relocating operations of our feedmills at Cirebon to Purwakarta by the end of 2014 and by
commencing operations at one additional feedmill by the end of 2015, and increase our
geographical market coverage to meet the growing demand for our feed products. As of
March 31, 2014, we had five aqua-feed mills located in Gresik, Banyuwangi, Cirebon,
Lampung, and Medan. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and the
three months ended March 31, 2014, the production capacity of our aqua-feed mills was
approximately 280,000 tons, 280,000 tons, 318,000 tons and 79,500 tons, and the utilization
rate of our aqua-feed mills was 69%, 73%, 67% and 58%, respectively. For the year ended
December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014, approximately 91% and
88% of our total production was fish feed and the other 9% and 12% was shrimp feed,
respectively.
Supporting Facilities for Aqua-Feed
To support our sales in the aqua-feed business, we operate fish and shrimp hatchery ponds
to breed commercial grade fingerlings or seedlings for aqua-feed customers who have
insufficient means or know-how to acquire suitable starter-species for commercial farming
under specific localized environmental conditions. We believe such value-added auxiliary
facilities are important to our success in aqua-feed distribution. In addition, we operate an eel
farming operation, breeding Anguilla Bicolor and Anguilla Marmorata eels to maturity before
processing them for sale as ready-to-consume products. We operate our eel operation in
accordance with typical Japanese methods in order to produce a Kabayaki style finished
product. As of March 31, 2014, we operated three ponds located at Banyuwangi and Karang
Tekok in order to produce approximately 160 tons of live eels per year for domestic and
export markets.
Bio-security Measures
We believe that we have one of the most stringent bio-security systems in the animal protein
industry.
We believe that in animal protein production, prevention is the most viable and economically
feasible approach to the control of infectious disease agents. Accordingly, our bio-security
procedures are implemented with the objective of preventing the introduction and reducing
the number and spread of infectious disease agents in the animal protein production chain.
Our bio-security measures are premised on the three components below:
isolation (i.e. the process of keeping our livestock confined and protected in specialized
areas);
bio-security measures and stringent quality control policies. In addition, we are not aware of
any cases of infections having occurred at any of the facilities operated by our contract
farmers. None of our processing or production facilities have been quarantined.
In 2008, we acquired PT Vaksindo Satwa Nusantara, one of only three Indonesian companies
with research capabilities on the H5N1 (avian flu) virus. This acquisition has enabled our
breeding operations to develop vaccines internally which are also used by our operations in
other jurisdictions. We believe that we are the only integrated poultry company in Indonesia
able to produce autogenous vaccines able to protect our animals.
Although we have not experienced any material adverse financial impact as a result of the
outbreaks of Avian Influenza, it nevertheless poses a significant risk for us in the future and
there can be no assurance that we will not be severely affected by an outbreak in the future.
Disease prevention through vaccination is one of the aspects of bio-security measures which
we observe religiously. Our veterinary diagnostic laboratories and PT Vaksindo Satwa
Nusantara are set up to carry out diagnostics and vaccine development. PT Vaksindo Satwa
Nusantara engages with scientists at Erasmus MC, University of Rotterdam, NL; Institute of
Zoology, University of Cambridge, UK; University of Maryland, USA; and Agricultural
Research Service (ARS), Athens, GA, USA to conduct research and development on
vaccination and the prevention of poultry diseases. We aim to leverage on such technical
capacity to formulate cost-effective solutions to control the outbreak of diseases.
Our bio-security measures and stringent quality control policies provide us with a degree of
protection against infection. However, there can be no assurance that the policies and
procedures that we have implemented to date, and which we keep under regular review, will
provide us with adequate protection in the future. See Risk FactorsRisks Relating to our
Business and OperationsOutbreaks of livestock diseases could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We conduct ongoing staff training in bio-security measures, which is important to ensure safe
and hygienic operation of our business.
For our beef operations, every cattle that enters the production system is tagged via an
individual identification system which allows us to track the movement of each cattle
throughout the production process. Beef cuts are randomly tested for bacteria count and
residue to ensure levels are better than safety levels. All beef facilities comply with local
environmental regulations and discharged water is monitored regularly to ensure compliance.
Indonesia is among several countries that are free from foot and mouth disease and mad-cow
disease. To ensure Indonesia maintains its disease-free status, importation of livestock,
especially cattle, and beef are restricted to countries that have the same animal health
statuses. Our beef operations import feeder cattle only from Australia.
We have not had, in the last three years up to the Latest Practicable Date, any material
quality or safety issues in our animal protein segment which have had a material impact on
our business or results of operations.

We focus on chicken, beef and seafood ambient temperature meat products and chilled/
frozen meat products for the high-growth markets of Indonesia and Vietnam. In Indonesia, we
manufacture value-added chilled/frozen meat products such as breaded chicken meat,
chicken on bone, chicken and beef meatballs and seafood-based products, as well as
ambient temperature meat products such as chicken and beef sausages. We also
manufacture and market small-pack UHT liquid milk under the Real Good brand in Indonesia.
Our distribution network in Indonesia covers five regional sales branches and 32 sales
depots. Our main customers are hypermarket chains, supermarket chains, minimarket chains,
wholesalers, semi-wholesalers and retail shops. We also serve some institutional customers
(hotels, restaurants and caterers). In Vietnam we produce and market packaged ambient
temperature shelf-stable sausages.
Our So Good (for chicken nuggets, beef/chicken/fish/shrimp balls) and So Good Sozzis (shelf
stable sausages) and So Nice (shelf stable sausages) brands are leading brands in Indonesia
in the branded processed meat category according to the Industry Consultant. So Good brand
won the Top Brand award from 2008 to 2013 and So Nice won the Top Brand award from
2010 to 2013 awarded by Marketing magazine and Frontier research in Indonesia.
In Vietnam we manufacture and market branded shelf-stable sausages under the So Yumm
brand. Our meat processing and packaging facility is located at Binh Duong village just
outside Ho Chi Minh city. We have also established a sales office in Ho Chi Minh city to serve
as our marketing and distribution centre for Vietnam. As our consumer food operations in
Vietnam are still relatively new, we plan to focus on expanding on such operations.
We have commenced trial sales of our consumer food in Myanmar by exporting two test
shipments from our Vietnam consumer food operations. In addition, we plan to expand into
distribution of consumer foods in Myanmar which may be through arrangements with local
distributors.

In addition to our value added meat products (which comprise ambient temperature and
chilled/frozen meat products), our consumer food segment also produces and sells UHT milk;
distributes beef in Indonesia produced by our animal protein segment; and sells other snacks,
syrup and mayonnaise.
Our Products
The table below sets forth details of our products:

Products
ingredients for the next production process to make value-added chilled/frozen and ambient
temperature meat products.
We have five production processes for our productsthe frozen and chilled sausage line,
ambient temperature sausage line, nugget line, whole muscle line and meatball line.
For frozen and chilled sausages, the raw materials are first tempered before being separated
into batches. The tempered raw materials are chopped before undergoing a process called
vacuum stuffing. The sausages are smoked before being sent for primary packing. After being
frozen, the sausages are sent for secondary packing.
For ambient temperature sausages, the raw materials are first tempered before being
separated into batches. Following grinding and blending, the materials are emulsified before
they are processed for filling and cooking. The product is finally washed and dried before
being packaged as the final product.
For nuggets, the raw materials are first tempered before being separated into batches. The
materials undergo a process called forming to shape the nuggets before being coated. The
nuggets are subsequently cooked and frozen before they are packaged as the final product.
For whole muscles, the raw materials are first tempered before being separated into batches.
The materials are fed into a tumbling machine to be massaged into the requisite form before
they are coated and cooked. The whole muscle is frozen before they are packaged as the
final product.
For meatballs, the raw materials are first tempered before being separated into batches. The
tempered raw materials are chopped before undergoing a process called forming to shape
the meatballs. The meatballs are subsequently cooked and frozen before they are packaged
as the final product.
The manufacturing process for our UHT liquid milk products comprises three stages: receipt
of raw milk, cream separation and pasteurizing and UHT flavored milk production. Under the
first stage, raw milk is degassed and chilled in preparation of the next stage. The milk is then
separated into cream and skimmed milk. Cream is pasteurized and chilled before being sent
to cream storage. Skimmed milk is pasteurized, chilled and stored for the next stage involving
UHT liquid milk production. The pasteurized skimmed milk is transferred to a mixing tank
where ingredients and flavorings are mixed. The milk is then homogenized before it
undergoes ultra high temperature processing. The sterilized milk is transferred to an aseptic
tank before it is filled into TetraPaks and packed in corrugated cartons for incubation.
Quality Standards
We utilize a system called food safety management system, also known as FSMS. FSMS
ensures product consistency and safety through formulated product standard, food safety,
hazard analysis and critical control point policies. This system is applied to all of our factories
in Indonesia and Vietnam.
In Indonesia FSMS is certified ISO 22000:2005 by Bureau Veritas Quality International. All of
our consumer food products comply with Indonesia National Standard, Indonesia Food and
Drug Safety Body and Indonesian Halal Certification Body.
We have not had, in the last three years up to the Latest Practicable Date, any material
quality or safety issues in our consumer food segment which have had a material impact on
our business or results of operations.

SALES, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION
Dairy
In China, our dairy farms have entered into premium raw milk off-take contracts with the major
Chinese processing firms such as Yili, Mengniu, Bright Dairy and Nestle. Accounts
receivables are billed and collected twice a month from each customer. We intend to continue
having a diversified customer base by keeping the tenure of each off-take agreement to one
year or less.
To augment our established position in raw milk production and farming in China, we have
expanded into the downstream production of premium, branded dairy consumer products,
where we believe the demand for premium, branded dairy products remains strong. We
established our sales and distribution presence in Shanghai in December 2013 when we
incorporated Shanghai AustAsia Food Company Ltd. We are currently developing our first
consumer products for the Chinese market and we expect commercial operation to start by
middle 2014. We aim to target existing customers, such as major international coffee chains.
The go-to-market strategy will be similar to the way AIH entered the Hong Kong market by
initially targeting existing business-to-business customers such as major international coffee
146
chains. Discussions with these chains in China have been ongoing and we expect shipments
to commence at the end of 2014. We also expect to undertake further product developments
and channel and market expansions in China.
In Indonesia, the majority of our dairy products are exported to Singapore, Hong Kong,
Malaysia, Philippines and Brunei. Some of our dairy products produced in Indonesia are sold
to major retail chains and supermarkets in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong and coffee chains
such as Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Pacific Coffee in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong.
We distribute our finished products under our Greenfields brand through a network of our own
sales and distribution companies in Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia and
through distributors in markets such as the Philippines and Brunei. Our sales and marketing
strategy in respect of Greenfields is three-prongedgeography, products and channels. First,
in terms of geography, our key market is and remains Indonesia as it is Greenfields home
market and the country with the largest population in Southeast Asia and the largest potential
for growth in dairy consumption. We hold a commanding position in fresh milk in Indonesia. In
addition, we have targeted developed markets such as Hong Kong and Singapore where we
have established meaningful positions and thereby demonstrated our capability to compete
internationally. Recently we launched our fresh products into both Malaysia and the
Philippines, both of which are sizeable markets which lack good supply of local dairy
products. The customers in such markets are in the modern trade comprising supermarkets
and coffee chains. Second, in terms of products, we position ourselves as a premier supplier
of fresh dairy offerings which hold a premium over our competitors in terms of pricing and
position. We advertise our Greenfields milk as honest milk with a high assurance of its
quality given that all the raw milk is sourced from our own dairy farm where we control the
entire value chain. Third, in terms of channels, we sell our Greenfields milk in three main
channels comprising (i) modern retail (hypermarkets, supermarket and convenience stores),
(ii) coffee chains as well as (iii) hotels, restaurants and cafes.
The key function of our own distribution companies is to liaise directly with our key retail and
coffee chain customers and to conduct marketing and promotion activities appropriate for
each country. In addition, we develop marketing and public relations strategies with regional
consultants and oversee all new product developments.
Animal Protein Segment
We market our poultry feed under the Comfeed and Benefeed brands in Indonesia, Myanmar
and India; and Comfeed, Profeed and Bonafeed brands in Vietnam. The development of
these brands into reputable and recognized brands, with the requisite degree of brand
equity, has taken many years to achieve, through consistent product quality and high service
standards. We believe our brands are well known throughout the industry and to our
customers and offer an excellent value proposition to customers who are looking for quality,
consistency and reliability.
In Indonesia, we mainly undertake direct marketing by approaching poultry shops, dealers
and agents as well as end users. Our external sales of poultry feed in Indonesia accounted
for approximately 60% and 57% of our total poultry feed sales volume for the year ended
December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014 respectively. In India, our
poultry feed is sold through dealers and distributors and to farmers. Approximately 79% of the
total sales of poultry feed in India are made to external customers, while the remaining 21% is
consumed by our parent stock farms and commercial farms. Any excess DOCs not consumed
by our farms or commercial farms are sold directly to the traders and farmers. Broiler
chickens are sold in the market to traders in India.
We market our beef under Tokusen Wagyu Beef and Santori Beef (non-wagyu). We believe
that both our beef brands are known within the trade for their superior quality amongst
modern retailers such as supermarkets and restaurants.
147
We currently have an operational presence in 15 key regional hubs across the Indonesian
archipelago, thereby reducing logistics costs and decreasing time to market, allowing us
better access to local raw material sources, and placing us closer to our customers. Our
feedmills in India are located in the eastern, western and southern parts of India for ease of
transportation of feed to the customers located in the respective regions, thereby reducing
transportation costs. Similarly, our parent stock farms are located in the western part of India
while our commercial farms are located in Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka,
India, for the same reason. This proximity to customers also allows us to develop close
working relationships.
For the Indonesian market, most of our logistics activities are coordinated in-house,
particularly for areas where we have an established presence. For poultry feed, we sell
directly to our key customers and also through agents or poultry shops with whom we have
long-term, established relationships. We maintain control over these agents through strict
credit limits, terms of payment and uniform product pricing, as well as by requiring agents to
pledge assets, including land. We usually distribute the DOCs directly to our final customers,
who typically place an order on cash on delivery terms. Live broilers produced on our
commercial and contract farms are sold directly to regional wholesalers on cash before
delivery basis while chilled or frozen chicken is sold to wholesalers on prevailing credit terms.
We manage our distribution and logistics activities in-house at various regional hubs as part
of our overall supply chain management efforts. We generally outsource physical delivery
services for feed and other products, whereas we maintain and manage a fleet of chick-vans
for DOC delivery. We decide whether to outsource these activities or manage them in-house
largely according to the sensitivity of the products and the ability of existing vendors to deliver
to the standards required by us and our customers.
Consumer Food
In Indonesia and Vietnam, we have our own marketing department as well as a sales and
distribution department. The marketing department carries out marketing plans and activities
for our existing and new brands and products. This includes planning product launches,
determining pricing strategy, promotion strategy and sales and distribution strategy. The
implementation of these plans and strategies are handled and monitored by the marketing
team. Distribution of our products falls under the purview of our sales and distribution
department.
In Indonesia, we have invested in the development of our distribution operations. We have a
distribution network of five regional sales branches and 32 regional sales depots. Our direct
distribution coverage serves over 50,000 regular customers in modern channels, including
hypermarkets, supermarkets and minimarkets, as well as in traditional channel, including
agents (sub-distributors), wholesalers, semi wholesalers, and large-scale retail shops and
institutional clients.
The distribution strategy of our consumer food segment is to increase penetration into cities
and provincial townships with the highest population density and cold-storage retail
infrastructure.

We maintain our own fleet of more than 46 vehicles for our DOC business so as to maintain
our high bio-security standards and to ensure the timely delivery of DOCs. All DOCs must be
shipped to commercial farms, which are located within Indonesia, within 24 hours of their
birth.
Delivery of live cattle in Indonesia and China are sub-contracted to third-party trucking
companies. In Indonesia, we maintain a fleet of refrigerated trucks to distribute our beef
products to our customers.
We maintain our own fleet of more than 230 vehicles for our consumer food segment to
support our distribution network. Of these vehicles, approximately 60 vehicles are used for
delivery of chilled and frozen products while approximately 170 vehicles are used for ambient
temperature products.
INVENTORY CONTROL
Dairy
We use an integrated ERP system to monitor and control our inventory comprising raw
materials such as cocoa powder and packaging materials. We utilize a first in, first out
(FIFO) policy in respect of the raw milk produced to maintain freshness. Raw milk produced
is piped directly to our integrated processing plant where milk is produced. We generally seek
to maintain approximately three months inventory of raw materials (except milk) and
approximately six months inventory of packaging materials which we mainly import from
China.
Animal Protein Segment
Inventory levels in Indonesia are centrally monitored by our purchasing department in Jakarta.
We utilize a FIFO policy in respect of our inventory to maintain freshness. We maintain
inventory insurance for losses from certain damage and seek to minimize shortage, shrinkage
and demurrage by implementing tight performance standards for employee management of
inventory.
We generally maintain two to three months inventory of raw materials. Our raw materials
inventory is dependent upon the timing of harvests, festive seasons, actual and expected
weather conditions, and prevailing world market prices. We subject our incoming raw material
deliveries to on-the-spot quality control tests utilizing sophisticated lab equipment. This allows
us to immediately reject deliveries that fail to meet our specifications. Corn and certain other
raw materials must be kept dry and we therefore monitor moisture content in our silos and
operate corn dryers at strategic locations. As of March 31, 2014, we operated nine
stand-alone corn dryers in Indonesia located near major corn belts (two corn dryers in the
Central Java, two in South Sulawesi and five in the Lampung corn belts). Most of our
Indonesian feedmills also have corn dryers.
As of March 31, 2014, we operated two silos in Long An, Vietnam, four corn silos at Binh
Thuan, Vietnam, eight corn silos at Huong Chan, Vietnam, four corn silos at Thai binh,
Vietnam, and two corn silos at Hoa Binh, Vietnam.
Timely delivery and management of inventory is also essential in our DOC breeding business,
as we deliver more than 10.5 million DOCs per week in Indonesia and deliveries to customers
must be made within 24 hours.
Inventory monitoring in Myanmar is undertaken by our procurement department in Myanmar.
We utilize a FIFO policy in respect of our inventory to maintain freshness. In Myanmar, we
generally maintain approximately 1.5 to two months inventory of raw materials, including
major and seasonal raw materials such as maize, broken rice and soybean meal. Our raw
materials inventory is mainly dependent upon the timing of harvests, actual and expected
weather conditions, price trends, prevailing world prices and availability of warehouse
capacity. Myanmar has only two corn harvest seasons, straddling the April-May and the
October-January periods. Harvests are also affected during prolonged periods of rain. We
150
conduct strict quality and quantity checks on the raw materials we purchase from our
suppliers. The raw materials are stored at our warehouses and fumigation is conducted on a
monthly basis to preserve the quality of the raw materials.
Consumer Food
We use an integrated ERP system to monitor and control our inventory from raw materials,
packaging materials until finished goods items in all factories and distribution stock points.
The daily stock availability can be accessed through ERP online by the purchasing,
production, logistics and sales departments at the head office, factories and sales branches.
The ERP system also helps to ensure efficiency in stock levels and logistics costs, while at
the same time meeting the customer needs in the market.
Our raw material and packaging material requirements are centrally controlled by our
purchasing department and these are tied to the rolling monthly and weekly stock forecasts
and purchase orders from all sales branches. We utilize a FIFO policy using an ERP system
to ensure availability and to avoid expired products in our own warehouses and in the trades.

We employ a range of qualified technical staff, experts and professionals who have
industry-recognized qualifications, as well as significant previous experience in the industry.
On commencing employment with us, the staff is required to undertake induction and basic
skills training. Our technical staff is required to attend an in-house Total Productive
Maintenance training program, which includes specific training in relation to machinery and
our management staff receive communication and leadership skills training. We also send our
employees to seminars and training sessions held by external institutions.
We consider strong leadership skills to be a key factor in the success of our business and
reinforce this message through the Japfa Manager-Leader Training Program. In 2013, 295 of
our middle to top-level managers attended the program, which was conducted by our own
Training Communication Department.
We believe we have a good relationship with our employees. We have established a system
of employee cooperatives which work closely together with our management team to ensure
that the welfare of our employees is protected. We also conduct regular bipartite forums
between employees and management to encourage open communication. We have not

United States to produce seed Newcastle Disease Genotype VII reverse genetic as the
master seed live vaccine.
We also collaborate with the Queensland University, Australia to conduct research on
stereotyping to isolate the Coryza bacteria. Under this project, we aim to develop vaccines for
E coli and clostridium for poultry flocks usage.
Our aquaculture division engages in aqua-feed research and development. The goal is to
generate comprehensive knowledge about nutritional requirements of aqua-feed for different
fish. Unlike the experience with farm products on land, research data done by other countries
such as Japan are not readily applicable to the Indonesian water environment due to
differences such as water temperatures. As such, research and development has to be done
separately and independently by our aqua-feed division which is based in Indonesia.
We have four centers devoted to aqua-feed research. Our center in Cirebon deals with
various testing of mudfish and tilapia feed. Our Banyuwangi center in Indonesia deals with
research on eel and prawn feed, and our Gresik center in Indonesia deals with feed research
for fresh water fish such as milkfish, carp and Nile tilapia, while our Ciranjang center in
Indonesia deals with research for catfish, black and white pomfret and striped catfish. These
centers collect data findings to determine best formula for raw material mix for different fish,
including eel and shrimp, the digestibility of the aqua-feed produced and the percentage of
feed not ingested by the fish.
We spent US$542,784, US$485,843 and US$541,855 on research and development in 2011,
2012 and 2013 respectively, which amounted to 0.027%, 0.021% and 0.020% respectively of
our revenue for these years.

performance (which contributes to the determination of the bonus component) is a significant
indicator of their performance. Mr. Handojo Santosas bonus component is about 20% of his
total compensation and that of Mr. Tan Yong Nangs is about 40%, reflecting the different
roles they play in our Group, Mr. Handojo Santosas role being more strategic and
consultative and Mr. Tan Yong Nangs role being more operational.
Except as set out above, as of the date of this Prospectus, our Company does not have in
place any formal bonus or profit-sharing plan or any other profit linked agreement or
arrangement with any of its employees, and bonuses are expected to be paid on a
discretionary basis.

facility agreements have been negotiated to ensure that our Group can carry on with its
business in the ordinary course. To ensure our Groups compliance with the bank covenants,
these are monitored by all the financial controllers of the various business segments of our
Group on a regular basis. If there is a risk of a breach of any of the covenants under such
facilities, the Chief Financial Offer and/or the corporate finance team looking after banking
relations will engage with the respective lender to obtain a waiver or relaxation of the
covenant. To the best of the Companys knowledge, there has not been any material breach
of the material banking facilities currently entered into by entities within our Group. Set forth

and
(c)

having skills that are commensurate with our ambition to become a world-class
company.
Summary of PSP
A summary of the rules of the PSP is set out as follows:
(1)
Participants
Executive Directors and employees of our Group who have attained the age of twentyone (21) years and hold such rank as may be designated by our Remuneration
Committee from time to time shall be eligible to participate in the PSP.
Controlling Shareholders of our Company or Associates of such Controlling
Shareholders who meet the criteria above are also eligible to participate in the PSP if
their participation and awards are approved by independent Shareholders in separate
resolutions for each such person and for each such award.
The selection of a participant and the number of Shares which are the subject of each
award to be granted to a participant in accordance with the PSP shall be determined at
the absolute discretion of our Remuneration Committee, which shall take into account
criteria such as his rank, job performance and potential for future development, his
181
contribution to the success and development of our Group and, if applicable, the extent
of effort to achieve the performance target(s) within the performance period.
(2)
Administration
The PSP shall be administered by the Remuneration Committee with such powers and
duties conferred to it by the Board. A member of the Remuneration Committee who is
also a participant of the PSP must not be involved in its deliberation in respect of the
award granted or to be granted to him.
(3)
Size of PSP
The aggregate number of Shares which may be issued or transferred pursuant to
awards granted under the PSP, when aggregated with the aggregate number of
Shares over which options or awards are granted under any other share option
schemes or share plans of our Company, shall not exceed 15% of the total number of
issued Shares (excluding Shares held by our Company as treasury shares) from time
to time.
(4)
Maximum entitlements
Subject to the following, the aggregate number of Shares which may be issued or
transferred pursuant to awards granted under the PSP shall be determined by the
Remuneration Committee:
(5)
(a)
(b)
Awards
Awards represent the right of a participant to receive fully paid Shares free of charge,
provided that certain prescribed performance targets (if any) are met and upon expiry
of the prescribed performance period.
Shares which are allotted and issued or transferred to a participant pursuant to the
release of an award shall not be transferred, charged, assigned, pledged or otherwise
disposed of, in whole or in part, during a specified period (as prescribed by our
Remuneration Committee in the award letter), except to the extent approved by our
Remuneration Committee.
(6)
Details of Awards
Our Remuneration Committee shall decide, in relation to each award to be granted to
a participant:
(a)
(b)
(c)
the performance target(s) and the performance period during which such
performance target(s) are to be satisfied, if any;
(d)
the extent to which Shares, which are the subject of that award, shall be
released on each prescribed performance target(s) being satisfied (whether
182
fully or partially) or exceeded or not being satisfied, as the case may be, at the
end of the performance period; and
(e)
(7)
Timing of Awards
While our Remuneration Committee has the discretion to grant awards at any time in
the year, it is currently anticipated that awards would in general be made once a year.
An award letter confirming the award and specifying, inter alia, the number of Shares
which are the subject of the award, the prescribed performance target(s), the
performance period during which the prescribed performance target(s) are to be
attained or fulfilled and the schedule setting out the extent to which Shares will be
released on satisfaction of the prescribed performance target(s), will be sent to each
participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the making of an award.
(8)
Vesting of Awards
Subject to applicable law, our Company will deliver Shares to participants upon vesting
of their awards by way of either (i) an issue of new Shares; or (ii) a transfer of Shares
then held by our Company in treasury.
In determining whether to issue new Shares to participants upon vesting of their
awards, our Company will take into account factors such as (but not limited to) the
number of Shares to be delivered, the prevailing market price of the Shares and the
cost to our Company of issuing new Shares or delivering existing Shares.
The financial effects of the above methods are discussed below.
(9)
Termination of Awards
Special provisions in the rules of the PSP dealing with the lapse or earlier vesting of
awards apply in circumstances which include the termination of the participants
employment, the bankruptcy of the participant and the winding-up of the Company.
(10)
(11)
(12)
proxy or otherwise for voting unless specific instructions have been given in the proxy
form on how the vote is to be cast.
Disclosures in Annual Reports
Details of, among other things, the number of Shares comprised in awards and the number of
Shares comprised in award which have vested will be disclosed in our annual reports.
Financial Effects of the PSP
The PSP is considered a share-based payment that falls under FRS 102 where participants
will receive Shares and the awards would be accounted for as equity-settled share-based
transactions, as described in the following paragraphs.
The fair value of employee services received in exchange for the grant of the awards would
be recognized as a charge to the income statement over the period between the grant date
and the vesting date of an award. The fair value per share of the awards granted will be
determined using an option pricing model. The significant inputs into the option pricing model
will include, inter alia, the share price as at the date of grant of the award, the risk-free interest
rate, the vesting period, volatility of the share and dividend yield. The total amount of the
charge over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of each award
granted at the grant date and the number of Shares vested at the vesting date, with a
corresponding credit to the reserve account. Before the end of the vesting period, at each
accounting year end, the estimate of the number of awards that are expected to vest by the
vesting date is revised, and the impact of the revised estimate is recognized in the income
statement with a corresponding adjustment to the reserve account. After the vesting date, no
adjustment to the charge to the income statement is made.
The amount charged to the income statement also depends on whether or not the
performance target attached to an award is measured by reference to the market price of the
Shares. This is known as a market condition. If the performance target is a market condition,
the probability of the performance target being met is taken into account in estimating the fair
value of the award granted at the grant date, and no adjustments to the amounts charged to
the income statement are made whether or not the market condition is met. However, if the
performance target is not a market condition, the fair value per share of the awards granted at
the grant date is used to compute the amount to be charged to the income statement at each
accounting date, based on an assessment by our Chief Financial Officer at that date of
whether the non-market conditions would be met to enable the awards to vest. Thus, where
the vesting conditions do not include a market condition, there would be no cumulative charge
to the income statement if the awards do not ultimately vest.
The following sets out the financial effects of the PSP.
(a)
Share capital
The PSP will result in an increase in our Companys issued share capital when new
Shares are issued to participants. The number of new Shares issued will depend on,
inter alia, the size of the awards granted under the PSP. In any case, the PSP
provides that the number of Shares to be issued or transferred under the PSP, when
aggregated with the aggregate number of Shares over which options are granted
under any other share option schemes of our Company, will be subject to the
maximum limit of 15% of our Companys total number of issued Shares (excluding
Shares held by our Company as treasury shares) from time to time. If instead of
issuing new Shares to participants, existing Shares are purchased for delivery to
participants, the PSP will have no impact on our Companys issued share capital.
184
(b)
NTA
As described in paragraph (c) below on EPS, the PSP is likely to result in a charge to
our Companys income statement over the period from the grant date to the vesting
date of the awards. The amount of the charge will be computed in accordance with
FRS 102. When new Shares are issued under the PSP, there would be no effect on
the NTA due to the offsetting effect of expenses recognized and the increase in share
capital. However, if instead of issuing new Shares to participants, existing Shares are
purchased for delivery to participants, the NTA would be impacted by the cost of the
Shares purchased. It should be noted that the delivery of Shares to participants under
the PSP will generally be contingent upon the eligible participants meeting prescribed
performance targets and conditions.
(c)
EPS
The PSP is likely to result in a charge to earnings over the period from the grant date
to the vesting date, computed in accordance with FRS 102.
It should again be noted that the delivery of Shares to participants of the PSP will
generally be contingent upon the participants meeting the prescribed performance
targets and conditions.
(d)
Dilutive Impact
The issuance of new Shares under the PSP will have a dilutive impact on our
consolidated EPS.
(b)
(c)
to incentivize participants who are able to contribute to drive the growth and
profitability of AIH.
Participants
Under the rules of the AIH Share Option Scheme, full-time employees of the AIH
ESOS Group are eligible to participate in the AIH Share Option Scheme (Eligible
Participants) at the absolute discretion of the committee which was set up to
administer the AIH Share Option Scheme (the Committee).
The Committee shall be entitled, in their sole and absolute discretion, to select persons
other than those listed above as Eligible Participants, taking into account criteria such
as rank, job performance, creativity, innovativeness, entrepreneurship, years of service
and potential for future development, his contribution to the development and
profitability of the AIH ESOS Group, and the extent of effort and resourcefulness
required to achieve a positive result for one or more members of the AIH ESOS Group
within the performance period.
Persons who are Controlling Shareholders or Associates of a Controlling Shareholder
are not eligible to participate in the AIH Share Option Scheme.
(2)
Administration
The AIH Share Option Scheme shall be administered by the Committee with such
powers and duties conferred on it by the Board.
The Committee will comprise of 2 to 5 members duly authorized and nominated by the
directors of AIH, from time to time, to administer the AIH Share Option Scheme. A
member of the Committee who is also a participant of the AIH Share Option Scheme
must not be involved in its deliberation in respect of AIH Options granted or to be
granted to him.
(3)
(4)
Maximum entitlements
The aggregate number of AIH Shares to which a participant under the AIH Share
Option Scheme is entitled shall be determined at the absolute discretion of the
Committee.
(5)
(b)
AIH has carried out an initial public offering and listing of the AIHs shares on
any internationally recognized stock exchange on or before August 12, 2017 or
such other dates as the Directors may, with the consent of shareholders of the
AIH, approve in writing (IPO Condition).
The exercise price of each AIH Option shall be determined by the Committee for each
financial year, in the Committees sole and absolute discretion, and shall initially be
US$1.25 per AIH Share.
(6)
Grant of options
Under the rules of the AIH Share Option Scheme, there are no fixed periods for the
grant of AIH Options. As such, offers for the grant of AIH Options may be made at any
time from time to time at the discretion of the Committee. However, the Committee will
generally grant AIH Options once a year in February. In addition, no AIH Option shall
be granted during the period of 30 days immediately preceding the date of
announcement of AIHs (in the event it is listed) or our Companys interim or final
results (as the case may be).
In addition, in the event that an announcement on any matter of an exceptional nature
involving unpublished price sensitive information is imminent, offers may only be made
after the second day on which the SGX-ST and, where applicable, such internationally
recognized stock exchange on which the AIH is listed, is open for trading in securities,
from the date on which the aforesaid announcement is made.
(7)
Acceptance of Options
The grant of AIH Options shall be accepted within 30 days from the date of offer.
Offers of AIH Options made to grantees, if not accepted before the closing date, will
lapse. For the avoidance of doubt, each AIH Option which has been accepted shall
vest from the date of grant of the AIH Option.
(8)
Termination of Options
Special provisions in the rules of the AIH Share Option Scheme deal with the lapse or
earlier exercise of AIH Options in circumstances which include the termination of the
participants employment from the AIH Group, the bankruptcy of the participant and the
winding-up of AIH.
(9)
(10)
187
(11)
The exercise of an AIH Option at a discounted exercise price would translate into a
reduction of the proceeds from the exercise of such an AIH Option, as compared to the
proceeds that AIH would have received from such exercise had the exercise been
made at the prevailing valuation price of the AIH Shares. Such reduction of the
exercise proceeds would represent a monetary loss to AIH / our Company;
(b)
As the monetary cost of granting AIH Options with a discounted exercise price is borne
by AIH, our earnings would effectively be reduced by an amount corresponding to the
reduced interest earnings that AIH would have received from the difference in
proceeds from the exercise price with no discount compared to the discounted
exercise price. Such reduction would, accordingly, result in the dilution of our earnings
per Share.
(c)
The issue of new AIH Shares upon the exercise of AIH Options granted pursuant to
the AIH Share Option Scheme will have the effect of increasing AIH / our Companys
consolidated NTA by the aggregate exercise price of the new AIH Shares issued. On a
per AIH Share basis, the effect would be accretive if the exercise price is above the
NTA per AIH Share but dilutive otherwise.
(d)
The grant of AIH Options under the AIH Share Option Scheme will have an impact on
our Companys reported profit because under the Singapore Financial Reporting
Standards (SFRS), share-based payment requires the recognition of an expense in
respect of Options granted under the AIH Share Option Scheme. The expense will be
based on the fair value of the Options at the date of grant (as determined by the
option-pricing model) and will be recognized over the vesting period. The requirement
to recognize an expense in respect of options granted to employees is set out in
FRS102.
It should be noted that the financial effects discussed in (a), (b) and (c) above would materialize
only upon the exercise of the relevant AIH Options. The cost of granting AIH Options discussed
in (d) would be recognized in the financial statements even if the AIH Options are not exercised
in (d). Measured against these costs would be the desirable effect of the AIH Share Option
Scheme in attracting, recruiting, retaining and motivating directors and employees which could,
in the long term, yield greater returns for AIH and our Shareholders.
188
As each AIH Options are granted at zero consideration, there will be a cost to AIH (in that AIH
will receive from the participant upon the grant of the AIH Option to him, a consideration that
is less than the fair value of the AIH Option).
The cost to AIH / our Company in granting an AIH Option would vary depending on the
number of AIH Options granted pursuant to the AIH Share Option Scheme, whether these
AIH Options are granted at valuation prices or at a discount and the validity period of the AIH
Options. Generally a greater discount and a longer validity period for an AIH Option will result
in a higher potential cost to AIH / our Company. If such costs were to be recognized in
accordance with FRS102, it would have to be charged to AIH / our Companys profit and loss
account over the vesting period.
The issuance of new AIH Shares under the AIH Share Option Scheme will have a dilutive
impact on the consolidated EPS of AIH and our Company.
189
the conversion of our Company to a public limited company and the change of our
name to Japfa Ltd.; and
(b)
At an Extraordinary General Meeting held on July 23, 2014, our Shareholders approved,
among other things, the following:
(a)

(2)
(bb)
(3)
(4)
At an Extraordinary General Meeting held on July 31, 2014, our Shareholders approved,
among other things, the sub-division of each ordinary share in the capital of our Company into

As the rental payments in respect of the Daan Mogot Property and the Millenia Office were
lower than the prevailing rental rates for comparable premises, the rental of these premises
were not on an arms length basis but are not prejudicial to the interests of our Group and/or
minority Shareholders.
Our Group has also entered into medium-term leases for a period of five years commencing
April 1, 2014 with (i) PT OAS for the rental of the Daan Mogot Property and (ii) PT OP for the
Millenia Office. Rental for the office and the warehouse at the Daan Mogot Property is at the
rate of IDR95,000 / sq m and IDR 45,000 / sq m per month (including service charges)
respectively for FY2014 and rental for the Millenia Office is at the rate of IDR130,000 / sq m
(including service charges) per month for FY2014.
Under the terms of the leases, rental will be reviewed and may increase or decrease after
each year of the lease term provided that the new rental rate shall not exceed the rental rates
of office premise rental with comparable buildings / premises in the surrounding area of the
Daan Mogot Office and the Warehouse and Millenia Office. These lease agreements were
entered into on an arms length basis and on normal commercial terms as the rental rates
were based on the prevailing rental rates for comparable premises surrounding the (i) Daan
Mogot Office, such as SSK Building for office rental and Duta Kinzo and Era Prima
warehouses for the warehouse rental, and (ii) Millenia Office, such as Korindo Building, Green
Building, Mugi Griya Building and Graha Pratama Building.

US$10,000 per month (such lease, together with the lease for the medium term leases for the
Daan Mogot Property and Millenia Office, the Property Leases). The lease agreement was
entered into on an arms length basis and on normal commercial terms as the rental rate took
into consideration (i) the prevailing rental rates for comparable premises in the Orchard
Road / Tanglin area with close proximity to our corporate office and (ii) the average room rate
allowances of the senior executives entitled to stay at the Four Seasons Park apartment.

PT JSMU for a period of five years commencing April 1, 2014 for the provision of security
services and co-ordination with local and regional police departments by PT JSMU (the

(Fortunata) primarily for corporate functions and business entertainment. Fortunata is an
associate of Mr. Handojo Santosa. The aggregate value of rental and operational expenses
paid to Fortunata for FY2011, FY2012, FY2013 and for the Relevant Period, are as follows:

Lady Carla is maintained exclusively for the use of our Group, twenty-four hours a day and on
comparable rates to other similar fishing boats from third parties. As no other charterer is able
to provide our Group with such exclusivity and flexibility, we consider the rental of Lady Carla
to be on an arms length basis and on normal commercial terms.

Insurance Coverage
Our Group obtains mainly property all-risk insurance coverage in respect of certain of our
premises from PT Dinamika Prima Servitama (PT DPS) and PT Pan Pacific Insurance
(PT PPI). Property all-risk coverage includes insurance cover on our buildings, machinery,
office equipment, inventories and all assets on the insured premises. PT DPS and PT PPI are

As quotations obtained for similar insurance coverage from unrelated third party insurers were
comparable to the premiums proposed to be charged by PT DPS and PT PPI, the premiums
paid were on an arms length basis and on normal commercial terms.
Food Packaging
Our Group purchases packaging for our So Nice range of foods from PT Supratama Aneka
Industri (PT SAI). PT SAI is an associate of Mr. Hendrick Kolonas. The aggregate value of

and on normal commercial terms.
Membership Fees for HLMC
Our Group pays all club membership fees in respect of a Hang Lekir Members Club (HLMC)
membership owned by PT Citraphalaka Dewata (PT CD). The club membership is used for
corporate meetings and business entertainment and all senior and middle management of our
Group are entitled to use the club for business or personal leisure. PT CD is an associate of
Mr. Handojo Santosa. The aggregate value of membership fees paid on behalf of PT CD for

TAXATION
Singapore Taxation
The statements made herein regarding taxation are general in nature and based on certain
aspects of the current tax laws of Singapore, administrative guidelines and circulars issued by
the relevant authorities in force as of the date of this Prospectus and are subject to any
changes in such laws or administrative guidelines or circulars, or in the interpretation of these
laws or guidelines or circulars, occurring after such date, which changes could be made on a
retrospective basis. These laws, guidelines and circulars are also subject to various
interpretations, and the relevant tax authorities or the courts could later disagree with the
explanations or conclusions set out below. The statements below are not to be regarded as
advice on the tax position of any holder of our Shares or of any person acquiring, selling or
otherwise dealing with our Shares or on any tax implications arising from the acquisition, sale
or other dealings in respect of our Shares. The statements made herein do not purport to be a
comprehensive or exhaustive description of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant
to a decision to purchase, own or dispose of our Shares and do not purport to deal with the
tax consequences applicable to all categories of investors some of which (such as dealers in
securities) may be subject to special rules. Prospective shareholders are advised to consult
their own tax advisers as to the Singapore or other tax consequences of the acquisition,
ownership or disposal of our Shares. The statements below are based on the assumption that
our Company is a tax resident in Singapore for Singapore income tax purposes. It is
emphasized that neither our Company nor any other persons involved in this Prospectus
accept responsibility for any tax effects or liabilities resulting from the subscription for,
purchase, holding or disposal of our Shares.
Individual income tax
An individual is a tax resident in Singapore in a year of assessment if, in the preceding year,
he was physically present in Singapore or exercised an employment in Singapore (other than
as a director of a company) for 183 days or more, or if he resides in Singapore.
Individual taxpayers who are Singapore tax residents are subject to Singapore income tax on
income accruing in or derived from Singapore, unless the income is specifically exempt from
tax in Singapore. All foreign-sourced income received in Singapore on or after January 1,
2004 by a Singapore tax resident individual (except for income received through a partnership
in Singapore) is exempt from Singapore income tax if the Comptroller of Income Tax in
Singapore (Comptroller) is satisfied that the tax exemption would be beneficial to the
individual.
A Singapore tax resident individual is taxed at progressive rates ranging from 0.0 per cent. to
20.0 per cent. Non-Singapore resident individuals, subject to certain exceptions and
conditions, are subject to Singapore income tax on income accruing in or derived from
Singapore (other than employment income) at the rate of 20.0 per cent. Non-Singapore
resident individuals receiving Singapore employment income are taxed at a flat rate of
15.0 per cent or resident rates whichever gives rise to a higher tax payable.
Corporate income tax
A corporate taxpayer is regarded as resident in Singapore for Singapore tax purposes if the
control and management of its business is exercised in Singapore.
Corporate taxpayers who are Singapore tax residents are subject to Singapore income tax on
income accruing in or derived from Singapore and, subject to certain exceptions, on foreign
sourced income received or deemed to be received in Singapore. Under section 13(8) of the
Singapore Income Tax Act (ITA), foreign-sourced income in the form of dividends, branch
profits and services income received or deemed to be received in Singapore by Singapore tax
209
resident companies on or after June 1, 2003 are exempt from tax if the following prescribed
conditions are met:
(i)
such income is subject to tax of a similar character to income tax under the law of the
jurisdiction from which such income is received;
(ii)
at the time the income is received in Singapore, the highest rate of tax of a similar
character to income tax (by whatever name called) levied under the law of the territory
from which the income is received on any gains or profits from any trade or business
carried on by any company in that territory at that time is not less than 15.0 per cent.;
and
(iii)
the Comptroller is satisfied that the tax exemption would be beneficial to the person
resident in Singapore.
Certain concessions and clarifications have also been announced by the Inland Revenue
Authority of Singapore with respect to such conditions. In particular, companies engaged in
substantive business activities overseas that remit their foreign-sourced dividend, foreign
branch profits and foreign-sourced service income to Singapore but are unable to meet the
conditions for tax exemption under section 13(8) of the ITA may be granted tax exemption
under section 13(12) of the ITA if they remit their specified foreign income under specific
scenarios and satisfy the qualifying conditions.
A non-Singapore resident corporate taxpayer is subject to income tax on income that is
accrued in or derived from Singapore, and on foreign-sourced income received or deemed
received in Singapore, subject to certain exceptions.
The corporate tax rate is 17.0 per cent with effect from year of assessment 2010. In addition,
three quarters of up to the first S$10,000, and one-half of up to the next S$290,000, of a
companys chargeable income otherwise subject to normal taxation is exempt from corporate
tax. The remaining chargeable income will be fully taxable at the corporate tax rate.
New start-up companies will also, subject to certain conditions, be eligible for full tax
exemption on the first S$100,000 and 50% tax exemption on the next S$200,000 of their
normal chargeable income for each of their first three consecutive years of assessment.
Dividend distributions
Where our Company is treated as a tax resident of Singapore, dividends received in respect
of our Shares by either a resident or non-resident of Singapore are not subject to Singapore
withholding tax.
Under the Singapore one-tier corporate tax system, the tax on corporate profits is final and
dividends paid by a Singapore resident company are exempt from Singapore income tax in
the hands of a shareholder, regardless of whether the shareholder is a company or an
individual and whether or not the shareholder is a Singapore tax resident.
Gains on disposal of Shares
Singapore does not impose tax on capital gains. There are no specific laws or regulations
which deal with the characterization of whether a gain is income or capital in nature. Gains
arising from the disposal of our Shares may be construed to be of an income nature and
subject to Singapore income tax, if they arise from activities which are regarded as the
carrying on of a trade or business and the gains are sourced in Singapore.
For non-dealers in securities, gains derived from the disposal of equity investments made
during the period June 1, 2012 to May 31, 2017 will not be taxed if the divesting company
holds a minimum of 20% interest in the company whose shares are being disposed of and
such shareholding had been held for a continuous period of at least twenty four months prior
to the disposal.
210
In addition, shareholders who apply, or who are required to apply, the Singapore Financial
Reporting Standard 39 Financial InstrumentsRecognition and Measurement (FRS 39) for
the purposes of Singapore income tax may be required to recognize gains or losses (not
being gains or losses in the nature of capital) in accordance with the provisions of FRS 39 (as
modified by the applicable provisions of Singapore income tax law) even though no sale or
disposal of our Shares is made. Shareholders who may be subject to such tax treatment
should consult their own accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax
consequences of their acquisition, holding and disposal of our Shares.
Stamp duty
There is no stamp duty payable on the subscription of our Shares.
Where our Shares evidenced in certificated form are acquired in Singapore, stamp duty is
payable on the instrument of transfer of our Shares at 0.2 per cent of the consideration for, or
market value of, our Shares, whichever is higher. The stamp duty is borne by the purchaser
unless there is an agreement to the contrary. Where an instrument of transfer is executed
outside Singapore or no instrument of transfer is executed, no stamp duty is payable on the
acquisition of our Shares. However, stamp duty may be payable if the instrument of transfer is
executed outside Singapore and is received in Singapore.
Stamp duty is not applicable to electronic transfers of our Shares through the scripless trading
system operated by CDP.
Estate duty
Singapore estate duty has been abolished with respect to all deaths occurring on or after
February 15, 2008.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
The sale of our Shares by a GST-registered investor belonging in Singapore for GST
purposes through SGX to another person belonging in Singapore is an exempt supply which
is not subject to GST. Any input GST incurred by the GST-registered investor in making such
an exempt supply cannot be recovered from the Singapore Comptroller of GST.
Where our Shares are supplied by a GST-registered investor in the course of or furtherance
of a business carried on by such investor contractually to and for the direct benefit of a person
belonging outside Singapore and who is outside Singapore at the time the sale is executed,
the sale should generally, be considered a taxable supply subject to GST at 0.0 per cent. Any
input GST incurred by the GST-registered investor in making such a supply in the course of or
furtherance of a business carried on by such investor may be recoverable from the Singapore
Comptroller of GST, subject to the input tax recovery conditions.
Services consisting of arranging, broking, underwriting or advising on the issue, allotment or
transfer of ownership of our Shares rendered by a GST-registered person to an investor
belonging in Singapore for GST purposes in connection with the investors purchase, sale or
holding of our Shares will be subject to GST at the standard rate of 7.0 per cent. Similar
services rendered contractually to and for the direct benefit of an investor belonging outside
Singapore and who is outside Singapore when the services are performed would generally,
be subject to GST at 0.0 per cent.

In respect of the preceding paragraph:-
Price Stabilization
In connection with the Offering, the Stabilizing Manager (or persons acting on behalf of the
Stabilizing Manager), on behalf of the Underwriters, may over-allot Shares or engage in
transactions that stabilize or maintain the market price of the Shares at levels that might not
otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases to peg,
fix or maintain the price of the Shares. If the Stabilizing Manager creates a short position in
the Shares in connection with this Offering, that is, if they sell more than 37,200,000 Shares,
the Stabilizing Manager may reduce that short position by purchasing Shares in the open
market. The Stabilizing Manager may also elect to reduce any short position by exercising all
or part of the Over-allotment Option described above. Purchases of a security to stabilize the
price or to reduce a short position may cause the price of the security to be higher than it
might be in the absence of these purchases. Such transactions may be effected on the SGXST and in other jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so, in each case in compliance with
all applicable laws and regulations, including the Securities and Futures Act and any
regulations thereunder. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time
and shall not be effected after the earlier of (i) the date falling 30 days from the Listing Date;
and (ii) the date when the Stabilizing Manager or its appointed agent has bought, on the SGXST, an aggregate of 37,200,000 Shares, representing 15.0 per cent. of the total Offering
Shares, to undertake stabilizing actions, solely to cover the over-allotment of the Offering
Shares if any.
Neither we nor the Underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or
magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the
Shares. In addition, neither we nor the Underwriters make any representation that the
Stabilizing Manager will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once
commenced, will not be discontinued without notice (unless such notice is required by law).
The Stabilizing Manager will also be required to make a public announcement through the
SGX-ST in relation to the cessation of the stabilizing actions and the number of Shares in
respect of which the Over-allotment Option has been exercised not later than 8.30 a.m.
224
(Singapore time) on the trading day of the SGX-ST immediately after the day of cessation of
stabilizing actions.
Other Relationships
In addition, some of the Underwriters, the Co-Lead Manager and their affiliates have engaged
in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the
ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future
receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the Underwriters, the Co-Lead
Manager and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade
debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including
bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments
and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of our company or our
affiliates. The Underwriters, the Co-Lead Manager and their affiliates may also make
investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in
respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that
they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
Persons Intending to Subscribe and/or Purchase in the Offering
As of the date of lodgment of the Singapore prospectus with the Authority, we are not aware
of any person who intends to purchase and/or subscribe for more than five per cent. of the
Offering Shares pursuant to the Offering.

implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State; and the expression
Prospectus Directive means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto including
2010 PD Amending Directive to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State) and
includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State and the
expression the 2010 PD Amending Directive means Directive 2010/73/EU.
Each purchaser of the Offering Shares in the Offering located within a member state of the
European Economic Area will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed

PT Japfa Tax Dispute
PT Japfa had on December 6, 2012 submitted a letter to the Indonesian Tax Office
requesting the utilization of net book value on asset transfers in relation to inter alia,
the merger of PT Multibreeder Adirama Indonesia Tbk, PT Multiphala Adiputra and PT
Hidon into PT Japfa.
The head of the Indonesian Tax Office issued Decree No. KEP-71/WPJ.19/2013 dated
January 17, 2013 declining the utilization of net book value as the basis of calculation
as such request failed to fulfill the formal requirements under the Regulation of Ministry
of Finance No. 43/PMK.03/2008 dated March 13, 2008 on the utilization of net book
value on asset transfers in relation to merger, amalgamation, or business expansion
(Decree).
On February 14, 2013, PT Japfa filed a civil law suit against the Indonesian Tax Office
in respect of the Decree. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the civil law suit is still
on-going and PT Japfa is currently waiting for Tax Court to issue its verdict in relation
to the dispute.
In the event PT Japfa loses the civil law suit and has to use market value on the asset
transfer in relation to merger of PT Japfa and PT Multibreeder Adirama Indonesia Tbk,
PT Multiphala Adiputra and PT Hidon as the basis of calculation, PT Japfa may be
exposed to estimated additional tax liabilities of IDR114 billion (S$12.0 million) and a
penalty of two per cent per month on the additional tax liabilities of IDR114 billion, with
a maximum capped at 48 per cent, which is calculated from the time the tax liabilities

Revenue Recognition
The revenue amount is the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from
the gross inflow of economic benefits during the reporting year arising from the course
of the activities of the entity and it is shown net of any related sales taxes and rebates.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when significant risks and rewards of
ownership are transferred to the buyer, there is neither continuing managerial
involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over
the goods sold, and the amount of revenue and the costs incurred or to be incurred in
respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Rental revenue is recognized on a
time-proportion basis that takes into account the effective yield on the asset on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Interest is recognized using the effective
interest method. Dividend from equity instruments is recognized as income when the
entitys right to receive payment is established.
Employee Benefits
Certain subsidiaries of the Group are required to provide for employee service
entitlements in order to meet the minimum benefits required to be paid to qualified
employees as required under existing manpower regulations in Indonesia. Short-term
employee benefits are recognized at an undiscounted amount where employees have
rendered their services to the Group during the accounting periods. Post employment
benefits are recognized at discounted amounts when the employees have rendered
their services to the Group during the accounting periods. Liabilities and expenses are
measured using actuarial techniques which include constructive obligations that arise
from the Groups common practices. In calculating the liabilities, the benefits are
discounted by using the projected unit credit method. Termination benefits are
recognized when, and only when, the Group is committed to either; (a) terminate the
employment of an employee or group of employees before the normal retirement date;
or (b) provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made in order to encourage
voluntary redundancy.
Certain subsidiaries operate defined contribution retirement benefit plans in which
employees are entitled to join upon fulfilling certain conditions. The assets of the fund
are held separately from those of the entity in an independently administered fund. The
entity contributes an amount equal to a fixed percentage of the salary of each
participating employee. Contributions are charged to profit or loss in the period to
which they relate. These plans are in addition to the contributions to government
managed retirement benefit plans such as the Central Provident Fund in Singapore
which specifies the employers obligations which are dealt with as defined contribution
retirement benefit plans. For employee leave entitlement the expected cost of shortterm employee benefits in the form of compensated absences is recognized in the
case of accumulating compensated absences, when the employees render service
that increases their entitlement to future compensated absences; and in the case of
non-accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur. A liability for
bonuses is recognized where the entity is contractually obliged or where there is
constructive obligation based on past practice.
Share-Based Compensation
For the equity-settled share-based compensation transactions, the fair value of the
employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognized as
an expense. The total amount to be expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting
period is measured by reference to the fair value of the options granted ignoring the
effect of non-market conditions such as profitability and sales growth targets. Nonmarket vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options
that are expected to become exercisable. The fair value is measured using a binomial
A-13
option pricing model. The expected lives used in the model are adjusted, based on
managements best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions
and behavioural considerations. At each end of the reporting year, a revision is made
of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. It recognizes the
impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in profit or loss with a corresponding
adjustment to equity. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction
costs are credited to share capital when the options are exercised. Cancellations of
grants of equity instruments during the vesting period (other than a grant cancelled by
forfeiture when the vesting conditions are not satisfied) are accounted for as an
acceleration of vesting, therefore any amount unrecognized that would otherwise have
been charged is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Income Tax
The income taxes are accounted using the asset and liability method that requires the
recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the future tax consequence of events that have been
recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. The measurements of current
and deferred tax liabilities and assets are based on provisions of the enacted or
substantially enacted tax laws; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not
anticipated. Tax expense (tax income) is the aggregate amount included in the
determination of profit or loss for the reporting year in respect of current tax and
deferred tax. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized as income or as an
expense in profit or loss unless the tax relates to items that are recognized in the same
or a different period outside profit or loss. For such items recognized outside profit or
loss the current tax and deferred tax are recognized (a) in other comprehensive
income if the tax is related to an item recognized in other comprehensive income and
(b) directly in equity if the tax is related to an item recognized directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by
the same income tax authority. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed
at each end of the reporting year and is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any
tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. A
deferred tax amount is recognized for all temporary differences, unless the deferred
tax amount arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction
which (i) is not a business combination; and (ii) at the time of the transaction, affects
neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). A deferred tax liability or asset is
recognized for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in
subsidiaries, branches and associates, and joint arrangements except where the
reporting entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the taxable temporary
difference and it is probable that the taxable temporary difference will not reverse in
the foreseeable future or for deductible temporary differences, they will not reverse in
the foreseeable future and they cannot be utilized against taxable profits.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The functional currency of the Company is the Singapore dollar as it reflects the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Transactions in foreign
currencies are recorded in the functional currency at the rates ruling at the dates of the
transactions. At each end of the reporting year, recorded monetary balances and
balances measured at fair value that are denominated in non-functional currencies are
reported at the rates ruling at the end of the reporting year and fair value measurement
dates respectively. All realized and unrealized exchange adjustment gains and losses
are dealt with in profit or loss except when recognized in other comprehensive income
and if applicable deferred in equity such as for qualifying cash flow hedges. The
presentation currency is the United States dollar as the financial statements are meant
primarily for international users. For the United States dollar financial statements
A-14
assets and liabilities are translated at year end rates of exchange and the income and
expense items for each statement presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive
income are translated at average rates of exchange for the reporting year. The
resulting translation adjustments (if any) are recognized in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in a separate component of equity. The translations of S$
amounts into US$ amounts are included solely for the convenience of readers. The
reporting year end rates used are S$1 to US$0.789 (2012: S$1 to US$0.817; 2011:
S$1 to US$0.772) which approximate the rates of exchange at the end of each
reporting year. The average rates of exchange for the reporting years were S$1 to
US$0.798 (2012: S$1 to US$0.803; 2011: S$1 to US$0.797). Such translation should
not be construed as a representation that the Singapore dollar amounts could be
converted into US dollars at the above rates or other rates.
Translation of Financial Statements of Foreign Entities
Each entity in the Group determines the appropriate functional currency as it reflects
the primary economic environment in which the relevant reporting entity operates. In
translating the financial statements of such an entity for incorporation in the combined
financial statements in the presentation currency the assets and liabilities denominated
in other currencies are translated at end of the reporting year rates of exchange and
the income and expense items for each statement presenting profit or loss and other
comprehensive income are translated at average rates of exchange for the respective
reporting years. The resulting translation adjustments (if any) are recognized in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate component of equity until the
disposal of that relevant entity.
Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are interest and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing
of funds. The interest expense is calculated using the effective interest rate method.
Borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred
except that borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of a qualifying asset that necessarily take a substantial period of time to
get ready for their intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset
until substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its
intended use or sale are complete. Investment income earned on the temporary
investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is
deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
Government Grants
A government grant is recognized at fair value when there is reasonable assurance
that the conditions attaching to it will be complied with and that the grant will be
received. Grants in recognition of specific expenses are recognized as income over
the periods necessary to match them with the related costs that they are intended to
compensate, on a systematic basis. A grant related to depreciable assets is allocated
to income over the period in which such assets are used in the project subsidized by
the grant. A government grant related to assets, including non-monetary grants at fair
value, is presented in the statement of financial position by setting up the grant as
deferred income. The interest saved from government loans is regarded as additional
government grant.

Over the remaining lease terms
Not depreciated
financial position at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the
present value of the minimum lease payments, each measured at the inception of the
lease. The discount rate used in calculating the present value of the minimum lease
payments is the interest rate implicit in the lease, if this is practicable to determine, the
lessees incremental borrowing rate is used. Any initial direct costs of the lessee are
added to the amount recognized as an asset. The excess of the lease payments over
the recorded lease liability are treated as finance charges which are allocated to each
reporting year during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of
interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent rents are charged as
expenses in the reporting years in which they are incurred. The assets are depreciated
as owned depreciable assets. Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially
all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased assets are classified as operating
leases. For operating leases, lease payments are recognized as an expense in profit
or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease unless another
systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the users benefit, even if the
payments are not on that basis. Lease incentives received are recognized in profit or
loss as an integral part of the total lease expense. Rental income from operating
leases is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the
relevant lease unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of
the users benefit, even if the payments are not on that basis. Initial direct costs
incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying
amount of the leased asset and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease
term.
Intangible Assets
An identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance is recognized as an
intangible asset at acquisition cost if it is probable that the expected future economic
benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset
can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, an intangible asset with finite useful
life is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated
impairment losses. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized. An
intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life when, based on an
analysis of all of the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over
which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity.
The amortizable amount of an intangible asset with finite useful life is allocated on a
systematic basis over the best estimate of its useful life from the point at which the
asset is ready for use. The useful lives are as follows:
Formula and technology
Non-compete fees
Customer relationships
Computer software
20 years
5 years
6 years
5 to 7 years
Dairy cows, including milkable cows, heifers and calves are measured on initial
recognition and at the end of the reporting year at their fair value less costs to sell, with
any resultant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss for the year in which it arises.
Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset,
mainly transportation costs and excluding finance costs and income taxes. The fair
value of dairy cows is determined based on its present location and condition and is
determined independently by professional valuers.
The feeding costs and other related costs including the depreciation charge, utilities
cost and consumables incurred for raising of heifers and calves are capitalized, until
such time as the heifers and calves begin to produce milk.
Breeding chickens include grandparent stocks that produce hatchable eggs for parent
stocks, and parent stocks that produce hatchable eggs for trade livestock inventories.
Breeding chickens are classified as productive breeding chickens and unproductive
breeding chickens. Unproductive breeding chickens are stated at acquisition costs plus
accumulated growing costs. The accumulated costs of unproductive breeding chickens
are reclassified to productive breeding chickens at the optimal production age. In
general, unproductive broiler breeding chickens reach the optimal production age after
25 weeks and unproductive layer breeding chickens reach the optimal production age
after 20 weeks. Productive breeding chickens are stated at cost at the time of
reclassification from unproductive breeding chickens and are amortized over the
economic egg-laying lives of the breeding chickens after considering residual values.
Breeding cattle are cattle that are being nurtured for production of calves. Breeding
cattle are classified as productive breeding cattle and unproductive cattle.
Unproductive cattle are stated at acquisition costs plus accumulated growing costs.
The accumulated costs of unproductive cattle are reclassified to productive cattle at
the optimal productive age. In general, unproductive cattle reach the average optimal
production age after 15 months. Productive cattle are measured on initial recognition
and at the end of the reporting year at fair value less costs to sell, with any resultant
gain or loss recognized in profit or loss for the year in which it arises.
Breeding swine are swine that are being nurtured for production of piglets. Breeding
swine are classified as productive breeding swine and unproductive swine.
Unproductive swine are stated at acquisition costs plus accumulated growing costs.
The accumulated costs of unproductive swine are reclassified to productive swine at
the optimal productive age. In general, unproductive swine reach the average optimal
production age after 6 months. Productive swine are measured on initial recognition
and at the end of the reporting year at fair value less costs to sell, with any resultant
gain or loss recognized in profit or loss for the year in which it arises.
Segment Reporting
The Group discloses financial and descriptive information about its reportable
segments. Reportable segments are operating segments or aggregations of operating
segments that meet specified criteria. Operating segments are components about
which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief
operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing the
performance. Generally, financial information is reported on the same basis as is used
internally for evaluating operating segment performance and deciding how to allocate
resources to operating segments.
Subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity including unincorporated and special purpose entity that is
controlled by the reporting entity. Control is the power to govern the financial and
A-18
requires acquisition-date fair value; (ii) the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree measured in accordance with FRS 103 (measured either at fair value or as
the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the acquirees net identifiable
assets); and (iii) in a business combination achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair
value of the acquirers previously held equity interest in the acquiree; and (b) being the
net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities
assumed measured in accordance with this FRS 103.
After initial recognition, goodwill acquired in a business combination is measured at
cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized. Irrespective
of whether there is any indication of impairment, goodwill and also an intangible asset
with an indefinite useful life or any intangible asset not yet available for use are tested
for impairment at least annually. Goodwill impairment is not reversed in any
circumstances.
For the purpose of impairment testing and since the acquisition date of the business
combination, goodwill is allocated to each cash-generating unit, or groups of cashgenerating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination,
irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree were assigned to
those units or groups of units. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is so
allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is
monitored for internal management purposes and is not larger than a segment.
Assets Classified as Held for Sale
Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and any disposal groups are
classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through
a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The sale is expected to qualify
for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification,
except as permitted by FRS 105 in certain circumstances. It can include a subsidiary
acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Assets that meet the criteria to be classified
as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs
of disposal and are presented separately on the face of the statement of financial
position. Once an asset is classified as held for sale or included in a group of assets
held for sale no further depreciation or amortization is recorded. Impairment losses on
initial classification of the balances as held for sale are included in profit or loss, even
when there is a revaluation. The same applies to gains and losses on subsequent
remeasurement.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, an annual impairment
test is performed at the same time every year on an intangible asset with an indefinite
useful life or an intangible asset not yet available for use. The carrying amount of other
non-financial assets is reviewed at each end of the reporting year for indications of
impairment and where an asset is impaired, it is written down through profit or loss to
its estimated recoverable amount. The impairment loss is the excess of the carrying
amount over the recoverable amount and is recognized in profit or loss. The
recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value
less costs of disposal and its value in use. When the fair value less costs of disposal
method is used, any available recent market transactions are taken into consideration.
When the value in use method is adopted, in assessing the value in use, the estimated
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks
specific to the asset. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at
the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cashgenerating units). At each end of the reporting year non-financial assets other than
A-20
goodwill with impairment loss recognized in prior periods are assessed for possible
reversal of the impairment. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the
assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
measured, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been
recognized.
Inventories
Inventories in the animal protein, dairy and consumer food segments are measured at
the lower of cost (weighted average method) and net realizable value. Net realizable
value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. A
write down on cost is made where the cost is not recoverable or if the selling prices
have declined. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. In the case
of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share
of overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Financial Assets
Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition:
A financial asset is recognized on the statement of financial position when, and only
when, the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The
initial recognition of financial assets is at fair value normally represented by the
transaction price. The transaction price for financial asset not classified at fair value
through profit or loss includes the transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition or issue of the financial asset. Transaction costs incurred on the acquisition
or issue of financial assets classified at fair value through profit or loss are expensed
immediately. The transactions are recorded at the trade date.
Irrespective of the legal form of the transactions performed, financial assets are
derecognized when they pass the substance over form based on the derecognition
test prescribed by FRS 39 relating to the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership
and the transfer of control. Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the
net amount is reported in the statement of financial position if there is currently a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Subsequent measurement:
Subsequent measurement based on the classification of the financial assets in one of
the following four categories under FRS 39 is as follows:
1.
A-21
2.
3.
4.
A-22
Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition:
A financial liability is recognized on the statement of financial position when, and only
when, the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and it
is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or
cancelled or expired. The initial recognition of financial liability is at fair value normally
represented by the transaction price. The transaction price for financial liability not
classified at fair value through profit or loss includes the transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial liability. Transaction costs
incurred on the acquisition or issue of financial liability classified at fair value through
profit or loss are expensed immediately. The transactions are recorded at the trade
date. Financial liabilities including bank and other borrowings are classified as current
liabilities unless there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at
least 12 months after the end of the reporting year.
Subsequent measurement:
Subsequent measurement based on the classification of the financial liabilities in one
of the following two categories under FRS 39 is as follows:
1.
Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss: Liabilities are classified in this
category when they are incurred principally for the purpose of selling or
repurchasing in the near term (trading liabilities) or are derivatives (except for a
derivative that is a designated and effective hedging instrument) or have been
classified in this category because the conditions are met to use the fair value
option and it is used. Financial guarantee contracts if significant are initially
recognized at fair value and are subsequently measured at the greater of
(a) the amount determined in accordance with FRS 37 and (b) the amount
initially recognized less, where appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized
in accordance with FRS 18. All changes in fair value relating to liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss are charged to profit or loss as incurred.
2.
which an orderly transaction would take place for the asset or liability; and (d) the
appropriate valuation techniques to use when measuring fair value. The valuation
techniques used maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize
unobservable inputs. These inputs are consistent with the inputs a market participant
may use when pricing the asset or liability.
The fair value measurements and related disclosures categories the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value by using a fair value hierarchy of three levels.
These are recurring fair value measurements unless stated otherwise in the relevant
notes to the financial statements. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the
measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within
Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3
inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The level is measured on the
basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its
entirety. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have
occurred at the beginning of the reporting year. If a financial instrument measured at
fair value has a bid price and an ask price, the price within the bid-ask spread or midmarket pricing that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances is used to
measure fair value regardless of where the input is categorized within the fair value
hierarchy. If there is no market, or the markets available are not active, the fair value is
established by using an acceptable valuation technique.
The carrying values of current financial instruments approximate their fair values due
to the short-term maturity of these instruments and the disclosures of fair value are not
made when the carrying amount of current financial instruments is a reasonable
approximation of the fair value. The fair values of non-current financial instruments
may not be disclosed separately unless there are significant differences at the end of
the reporting year and in the event the fair values are disclosed in the relevant notes to
the financial statements.
Equity
Equity instruments are contracts that give a residual interest in the net assets of the
reporting entity. Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are
recognized at the amount of proceeds received net of incremental costs directly
attributable to the transaction. Dividends on equity are recognized as liabilities when
they are declared. Interim dividends are recognized when declared by the directors.
Provisions
A liability or provision is recognized when there is a present obligation (legal or
constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A provision is made using best
estimates of the amount required in settlement and where the effect of the time value
of money is material, the amount recognized is the present value of the expenditures
expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.
The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest
expense. Changes in estimates are reflected in profit or loss in the reporting year they
occur.
Critical Judgments, Assumptions and Estimation Uncertainties
The critical judgments made in the process of applying the accounting policies that
have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements
A-24
and the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation
uncertainty at the end of the reporting year, that have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities currently or within
the next reporting year are discussed below. These estimates and assumptions are
periodically monitored to ensure they incorporate all relevant information available at
the date when financial statements are prepared. However, this does not prevent
actual figures differing from estimates.
Fair Value of Biological Assets:
Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell. In determining the fair
value of the biological assets, the fair value of dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine is
determined based on either the market determined prices as at the end of the
reporting year adjusted with reference to the species, age, growing condition, costs
incurred and expected yield to reflect differences in characteristics and/or stages of
growth of the livestock; or the present value of expected net cash flows from the
livestock discounted at a current market-determined rate, when market-determined
prices are unavailable. Any change in the estimates may affect the fair value of the
livestock significantly. The professional valuers and management review the
assumptions and estimates periodically to identify any significant change in the fair
value of the livestock.
Impairment of and Useful Lives of Biological Assets:
The Group assesses annually whether its biological assets that are not measured at
fair value less costs to sell have any indication of impairment. In instances where there
are indicators of impairment, the recoverable amounts of the biological assets will be
determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of
management judgments and estimates. It is impracticable to disclose the extent of the
possible effects. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes
within the next financial year that are different from assumptions could require a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of the balances affected.
The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of breeding chickens at the end of each
reporting year. Where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, the
amortization charge is increased.
The carrying amount of the specific asset (or class of assets) at the end of the
reporting year affected by these assumptions is disclosed in the note on biological
assets.
Allowance for Doubtful Trade Accounts:
An allowance is made for doubtful trade accounts for estimated losses resulting from
the subsequent inability of the customers to make required payments. If the financial
conditions of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their
ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required in future periods. To
the extent that it is feasible impairment and uncollectibility is determined individually for
each item. In cases where that process is not feasible, a collective evaluation of
impairment is performed. At the end of the reporting year, the trade receivables
carrying amount approximates the fair value and the carrying amounts might change
materially within the next reporting year but these changes would not arise from
assumptions or other sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting
year. The carrying amount is disclosed in the note on trade and other receivables.
Net Realizable Value of Inventories:
A review is made on inventory for excess inventory and declines in net realizable value
below cost and an allowance is recorded against the inventory balance for any such
A-25
declines. The review requires management to consider the future demand for the
products. In any case the realizable value represents the best estimate of the
recoverable amount and is based on the acceptable evidence available at the end of
the reporting year and inherently involves estimates regarding the future expected
realizable value. The usual considerations for determining the amount of allowance or
write-down include ageing analysis, technical assessment and subsequent events. In
general, such an evaluation process requires significant judgment and materially
affects the carrying amount of inventories at the end of the reporting year. Possible
changes in these estimates could result in revisions to the stated value of the
inventories. The carrying amount of inventories at the end of the reporting year is
disclosed in the note on inventories.
Useful Lives of Property, Plant and Equipment:
The estimates for the useful lives and related depreciation charges for property, plant
and equipment, which includes leasehold land, buildings and site facilities, machinery
and equipment, office furniture and fixtures, motor vehicles and assets not in use, are
based on commercial and other factors which could change significantly as a result of
innovations and in response to market conditions. The depreciation charge is
increased where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or the carrying
amounts written off or written down for technically obsolete or assets that have been
abandoned. The carrying amount of the specific asset (or class of assets) at the end of
the reporting year affected by the assumption is US$586,019,000 (2012:
US$515,591,000; 2011: US$342,557,000).
Property, Plant and Equipment:
Property, plant and equipment are stated at carrying value of US$652,745,000 at
December 31, 2013 (2012: US$599,638,000; 2011: US$403,959,000). An assessment
is made for the reporting year whether there is an indication that the asset may be
impaired. If any such indication exists, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount
of the asset. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units if applicable is
measured based on value-in-use calculations. It is impracticable to disclose the extent
of the possible effects. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that
outcomes within the next reporting year that are different from assumptions could
require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the balances affected.
Income Taxes:
The Group has exposure to income taxes in a number of jurisdictions, including
Indonesia, China, India, Vietnam, Myanmar and Singapore. Significant judgment is
involved in determining the Group-wide provision for income taxes. There are certain
transactions and computations for which the ultimate determination is uncertain during
the ordinary course of business. The administration and enforcement of tax laws and
regulations may be subject to uncertainty and a certain degree of discretion by the tax
authorities in these countries. Although the Group believes the amounts recognized for
income and deferred taxes are adequate, these amounts may be insufficient based on
the respective countries tax authorities interpretation and application of these laws
and regulations and the Group may be required to pay more as a result. It is
impracticable to determine the extent of the possible effects of the above, if any, on the
combined financial statements of the Group. The Group recognizes liabilities for
expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where
the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially
recognized, such differences will have an impact on the income tax and deferred tax
provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

The goodwill was tested for impairment at the end of the reporting year. An impairment
loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit
exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cashgenerating unit (CGU) is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell or its value in
use. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based
on the value in use method as appropriate. The value in use is measured by
management. The value in use is a recurring fair value measurement (Level 3). The
quantitative information and key assumptions about the value in use measurement
using significant unobservable inputs for cash generating unit are consistent with those
used for the measurement last performed and is analyzed as follows:

The Group is exposed to fair value risks arising from changes in price of the dairy
products. The Group does not anticipate that the price of the dairy products will decline
significantly in the foreseeable future and management is of the view that there is no
available cost effective derivative or other contracts which the Group can enter into to
manage the risk of a decline in the price of the dairy products.
A-43
In general, the heifers are inseminated with semen when heifers reach an age of
approximately 14 months old. After an approximately 9 month pregnancy term, a calf is
born and the dairy cow begins to produce raw milk and the lactation period begins.

The share capital represents the share capital of the Company prior to the
Restructuring Exercise (Note 1.2).
The ordinary shares of no par value which are fully paid carry no right to fixed income.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
Capital Management:
The objectives when managing capital are: to safeguard the reporting entitys ability to
continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for owners and
benefits for other stakeholders, and to provide an adequate return to owners by pricing
the sales commensurately with the level of risk. The management sets the amount of
capital to meet its requirements and the risk taken. There were no changes in the
approach to capital management during the reporting year. The management
manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it where necessary or
possible in the light of changes in conditions and the risk characteristics of the
underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the management
may adjust the amount of dividends paid to owners, return capital to owners, issue
new shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.
The management monitors the capital on the basis of the debt-to-adjusted capital ratio.
This ratio is calculated as net debt/adjusted capital (as shown below). Net debt is
calculated as total borrowings including shareholders loans less cash and cash
equivalents. Adjusted capital comprises all components of equity.

for the reporting year 2012 resulted primarily from the increase in new debt.

was a favorable change with improved retained earnings.

approval from the relevant PRC authorities, the statutory reserve may be used to offset
any accumulated losses or increase the registered capital of the subsidiary. The
statutory reserve is not available for dividend distribution to shareholders.

expectations and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The
expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility over a period

The fair value of property, plant and equipment of PKP was appraised by an
independent valuer, KJPP Amin, Nirwan, Alfiantori & Rekan.
The goodwill arising on the acquisition of PKP is attributable to the anticipated
profitability of the distribution of the Groups products in the new markets and the
anticipated future operating synergies from the combination.
Subsequently on September 1, 2011, the operations of PKP were transferred and
merged with PT Ciomas Adisatwa, a subsidiary of JCI.
The contributions from the acquired subsidiary for the period between the date of
acquisition and the end of the reporting year were as follows:

Minimize interest rate, currency, credit and market risk for all kinds of
transactions.
2.
Maximize the use of natural hedge: favoring as much as possible the natural
off-setting of sales and costs and payables and receivables denominated in the
same currency and therefore put in place hedging strategies only for the excess
balance. The same strategy is pursued with regard to interest rate risk.
3.
Enter into derivatives or any other similar instruments solely for hedging
purposes.
4.
All financial risk management activities are carried out and monitored at central
level.
5.
All financial risk management activities are carried out following good market
practices.
6.
The main risk arising from the Groups biological assets is business risk. The Group
has institutionalized a comprehensive health management and quarantine system for
all its operations to ensure a consistently high standard of good healthcare
management and hygiene for its breeding livestock and dairy cows.
32C. Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The analyses of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial
recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 are disclosed in the relevant notes
to the financial statements. These include both the significant financial instruments
stated at amortized cost and at fair value in the statement of financial position. The
carrying values of current financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the
short-term maturity of these instruments and the disclosures of fair value are not made
when the carrying amount of current financial instruments is a reasonable
approximation of the fair value.
32D. Credit Risk on Financial Assets
Financial assets that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk and failures
by counterparties to discharge their obligations in full or in a timely manner consist
principally of cash balances with banks, cash equivalents, receivables and certain
other financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk is: the total of the fair
value of the financial assets; the maximum amount the entity could have to pay if the
guarantee is called on; and the full amount of any payable commitments at the end of
the reporting year. Credit risk on cash balances with banks and any other financial
instruments is limited because the counter-parties are entities with acceptable credit
ratings. Credit risk on other financial assets is limited because the other parties are
entities with acceptable credit ratings. For credit risk on receivables an ongoing credit
evaluation is performed on the financial condition of the debtors and a loss from
A-63
impairment is recognized in profit or loss. The exposure to credit risk with customers is
controlled by setting limits on the exposure to individual customers and these are
disseminated to the relevant persons concerned and compliance is monitored by
management. There is no significant concentration of credit risk on receivables, as the
exposure is spread over a large number of counter-parties and customers unless
otherwise disclosed in the notes to the financial statements below.
Note 24 disclose the maturity of the cash and cash equivalents balances.
As part of the process of setting customer credit limits, different credit terms are used.
The average credit period generally granted to trade receivable customers is about
7-60 days (2012: 7 60 days; 2011: 7 60 days). But some customers take a longer
period to settle the amounts.

The above amounts disclosed in the maturity analysis are the contractual
undiscounted cash flows and such undiscounted cash flows differ from the amount
included in the statement of financial position. When the counterparty has a choice of
when an amount is paid, the liability is included on the basis of the earliest date on
which it can be required to pay.
The liquidity risk refers to the difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial
liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. It is expected
that all the liabilities will be paid at their contractual maturity. In order to meet such
cash commitments the operating activity is expected to generate sufficient cash
inflows.

The analysis has been performed separately for fixed interest rate and floating interest
rate financial instruments. The impact of a change in interest rates on fixed interest
rate financial instruments has been assessed in terms of changing of their fair value.
The impact of a change in interest rates on floating interest rate financial instruments
has been assessed in terms of changing of their cash flows and therefore in terms of
the impact on net expenses. The hypothetical changes in basis points are not based
on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Apart from those involving estimations, management has made judgments in the
process of applying the entitys accounting policies. The areas requiring
managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, or areas where
assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed at
the end of this footnote, where applicable.
Critical Judgments, Assumptions and Estimation Uncertainties
The critical judgments made in the process of applying the accounting policies that
have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements
and the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation
uncertainty at the end of the reporting year, that have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities currently or within
the next reporting year are discussed below. These estimates and assumptions are
periodically monitored to ensure they incorporate all relevant information available at
the date when financial statements are prepared. However, this does not prevent
actual figures differing from estimates.
Fair Value of Biological Assets:
Biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell. In determining the fair
value of the biological assets, the fair value of dairy cows, breeding cattle and swine is
determined based on either the market determined prices as at the end of the
reporting year adjusted with reference to the species, age, growing condition, costs
incurred and expected yield to reflect differences in characteristics and/or stages of
growth of the livestock; or the present value of expected net cash flows from the
livestock discounted at a current market-determined rate, when market-determined
prices are unavailable. Any change in the estimates may affect the fair value of the
livestock significantly. The professional valuers and management review the
assumptions and estimates periodically to identify any significant change in the fair
value of the livestock.
Impairment of and Useful Lives of Biological Assets:
The Group assesses annually whether its biological assets that are not measured at
fair value less costs to sell have any indication of impairment. In instances where there
are indicators of impairment, the recoverable amounts of the biological assets will be
determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of
management judgments and estimates. It is impracticable to disclose the extent of the
possible effects. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes
within the next financial year that are different from assumptions could require a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of the balances affected.
The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of breeding chickens at the end of each
reporting year. Where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, the
amortization charge is increased.
The carrying amount of the specific asset (or class of assets) at the end of the
reporting year/ period affected by these assumptions is disclosed in the note on
biological assets.
Allowance for Doubtful Trade Accounts:
An allowance is made for doubtful trade accounts for estimated losses resulting from
the subsequent inability of the customers to make required payments. If the financial

transactions and computations for which the ultimate determination is uncertain during
the ordinary course of business. The administration and enforcement of tax laws and
regulations may be subject to uncertainty and a certain degree of discretion by the tax
authorities in these countries. Although the Group believes the amounts recognized for
income and deferred taxes are adequate, these amounts may be insufficient based on
the respective countries tax authorities interpretation and application of these laws
and regulations and the Group may be required to pay more as a result. It is
impracticable to determine the extent of the possible effects of the above, if any, on the
combined financial statements of the Group. The Group recognizes liabilities for
expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where
the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially
recognized, such differences will have an impact on the income tax and deferred tax
provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
Deferred Income Taxes:
Management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes,
deferred tax assets and liabilities and the extent to which deferred tax assets can be
recognized. A deferred tax asset is recognized if it is probable that sufficient taxable
income will be available in the future against which the temporary differences and
unused tax losses can be utilized. Management also considers future taxable income
and tax planning strategies in assessing whether deferred tax assets should be
recognized in order to reflect changed circumstances as well as tax regulations. As a
result, due to their inherent nature, it is likely that deferred tax calculation relates to
complex fact patterns for which assessments of likelihood are judgmental and not
susceptible to precise determination. The amounts of the deferred tax assets and
deferred tax liabilities at the end of the reporting year/ period are disclosed in Note 13.
Pension and Employee Benefits:
The determination of the Groups obligations and cost for pension and employee
benefits liability is dependent on its selection of certain assumptions used by
independent actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include among
others, discount rates, expected rates of return of assets, future annual salary
increases, annual employee turnover rates, disability rates, retirement age and
mortality rates. Actual results that differ from the assumptions are recognized
immediately in profit or loss as and when they occur. While the Group believes that its
assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in the Groups
actual experience or significant changes in the assumptions may materially affect its
estimated liabilities for pensionable and employee benefits and net employee benefits
expense. The carrying amount of the estimated liabilities for employee benefits at the
end of the reporting year/ period are disclosed in Note 27.
In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the Indonesian
Government Securities Yield Curve (risk free) with the year of expected remaining
working period of the employees.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific country
and is modified accordingly with estimates of mortality improvements. Future salary
increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the specific country.
Determination of Functional Currency:
In determining the functional currencies of the entities in the Group, judgment is
required to determine the currency that mainly influences sales prices of goods and
services and of the country whose competitive forces and regulations mainly
determine the sales prices of its goods and services. The functional currencies of each

For management purposes the Group is organized into the following major strategic
operating segments that offer different products and services: (1) animal protein,
(2) dairy and (3) consumer foods. Such a structural organization is determined by the
nature of risks and returns associated with each business segment and defines the
management structure as well as the internal reporting system. It represents the basis
on which the management reports the primary segment information. They are
managed separately because each business requires different strategies.
The segments and the types of products and services are as follows:
The animal protein segment includes production of multiple high-quality animal
proteins, including poultry, swine, beef and aquaculture, as well as high-quality animal
feed, across the Groups target markets.
The dairy segment includes production of premium raw milk in China and Indonesia
and premium downstream milk products such as premium fresh milk, premium UHT
milk and premium cheeses to consumers in Indonesia and other countries in Asia.
The consumer food segment uses the animal protein products that are produced inhouse as raw materials for downstream consumer food segment.
Inter-segment sales are measured on the basis that the entity actually used to price
the transfers. Internal transfer pricing policies of the Group are as far as practicable
based on market prices. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the
same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
The management reporting system evaluates performance based on operating profit
or loss and is measured in the same way as operating profit or loss in the combined
financial statements.
The following tables illustrate the information about the reportable segment profit or
loss, and assets and liabilities.

The Group is exposed to fair value risks arising from changes in price of the dairy
products. The Group does not anticipate that the price of the dairy products will decline
significantly in the foreseeable future and management is of the view that there is no
available cost effective derivative or other contracts which the Group can enter into to
manage the risk of a decline in the price of the dairy products.
In general, the heifers are inseminated with semen when heifers reach an age of
approximately 14 months old. After an approximately 9 month pregnancy term, a calf is
born and the dairy cow begins to produce raw milk and the lactation period begins.

None of the financial assets measured at amortized cost were reclassified to financial
assets at fair value during the reporting period.
As far as unquoted equity instruments are concerned, in cases where it is not possible
to reliably measure the fair value, such instruments are carried at cost less
accumulated allowance for impairment. Impairment losses recognized in profit or loss
for equity investments are not reversed.

The share capital represents the share capital of the Company prior to the
Restructuring Exercise (Note 1.2).
The ordinary shares of no par value which are fully paid carry no right to fixed income.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
Capital Management:
The objectives when managing capital are: to safeguard the reporting entitys ability to
continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for owners and
benefits for other stakeholders, and to provide an adequate return to owners by pricing
the sales commensurately with the level of risk. The management sets the amount of
B-36
capital to meet its requirements and the risk taken. There were no changes in the
approach to capital management during the reporting year. The management
manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it where necessary or
possible in the light of changes in conditions and the risk characteristics of the
underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the management
may adjust the amount of dividends paid to owners, return capital to owners, issue
new shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.
The management monitors the capital on the basis of the debt-to-adjusted capital ratio.
This ratio is calculated as net debt/adjusted capital (as shown below). Net debt is
calculated as total borrowings including shareholders loans less cash and cash
equivalents. Adjusted capital comprises all components of equity.

In applying merger accounting, financial statement items of the combining entities for
the reporting period in which the common control combination occurs, and for the
comparative period disclosed, are included in the combined financial statements of the
Group as if the combination had occurred from the date when the combining entities
first came under the control of the controlling party or parties. The share capital of the
combining entities have been reclassified to capital reserve in the combined financial
statements of the Group.
26C. Statutory Reserve
In accordance with the Foreign Enterprise Law applicable to the subsidiaries in the
Peoples Republic of China (PRC), the subsidiaries are required to make
appropriation to a statutory reserve. At least 10% of the statutory profits after tax as
determined in accordance with the applicable PRC accounting standards and
regulations must be allocated to a statutory reserve until the cumulative total of the
statutory reserve reaches 50% of the subsidiaries registered capital. Subject to
approval from the relevant PRC authorities, the statutory reserve may be used to offset
any accumulated losses or increase the registered capital of the subsidiary. The
statutory reserve is not available for dividend distribution to shareholders.
26D. Share Option Reserve
Share Option Plan
Under this plan, share options of one of the subsidiaries, AustAsia Investment
Holdings Pte Ltd (AIH), are granted to employees of the PRC subsidiaries of AIH with
four years service. The exercise price of the share options is equal to the market price
of the underlying shares on the date of grant. The share options vest if and when AIHs
initial public offering is completed and the employees fulfill continuous employment of
four years. The share options granted will not vest if the initial public offering is not
completed.
The fair value of the share options is estimated at the grant date using a binominal
option pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the
share options were granted. The contractual term of each option granted is ten years.
There are no cash settlement alternatives.
The expenses recognized for employees services received during the year/ period is
shown in the following table:

The expected life of the share options is based on historical data and current
expectations and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The
expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility over a period
similar to the life of the options is indicative of future trends, which may not necessarily
be the actual outcome.

Minimize interest rate, currency, credit and market risk for all kinds of
transactions.
2.
Maximize the use of natural hedge: favoring as much as possible the natural
off-setting of sales and costs and payables and receivables denominated in the
same currency and therefore put in place hedging strategies only for the excess
balance. The same strategy is pursued with regard to interest rate risk.
3.
Enter into derivatives or any other similar instruments solely for hedging
purposes.
4.
All financial risk management activities are carried out and monitored at central
level.
5.
All financial risk management activities are carried out following good market
practices.
6.
The main risk arising from the Groups biological assets is business risk. The Group
has institutionalized a comprehensive health management and quarantine system for
all its operations to ensure a consistently high standard of good healthcare
management and hygiene for its breeding livestock and dairy cows.
32C. Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The analyses of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial
recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 are disclosed in the relevant notes
to the financial statements. These include both the significant financial instruments
stated at amortized cost and at fair value in the statement of financial position. The
carrying values of current financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the
short-term maturity of these instruments and the disclosures of fair value are not made
when the carrying amount of current financial instruments is a reasonable
approximation of the fair value.
32D. Credit Risk on Financial Assets
Financial assets that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk and failures
by counterparties to discharge their obligations in full or in a timely manner consist
principally of cash balances with banks, cash equivalents, receivables and certain
other financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk is: the total of the fair
value of the financial assets; the maximum amount the entity could have to pay if the
guarantee is called on; and the full amount of any payable commitments at the end of
the reporting year. Credit risk on cash balances with banks and any other financial
instruments is limited because the counter-parties are entities with acceptable credit
ratings. Credit risk on other financial assets is limited because the other parties are
entities with acceptable credit ratings. For credit risk on receivables an ongoing credit
evaluation is performed on the financial condition of the debtors and a loss from
B-46
impairment is recognized in profit or loss. The exposure to credit risk with customers is
controlled by setting limits on the exposure to individual customers and these are
disseminated to the relevant persons concerned and compliance is monitored by
management. There is no significant concentration of credit risk on receivables, as the
exposure is spread over a large number of counter-parties and customers unless
otherwise disclosed in the notes to the financial statements below.
Note 24 disclose the maturity of the cash and cash equivalents balances.
As part of the process of setting customer credit limits, different credit terms are used.
The average credit period generally granted to trade receivable customers is about
7 60 days (31.12.2013: 7 60 days). But some customers take a longer period to
settle the amounts.

The above amounts disclosed in the maturity analysis are the contractual
undiscounted cash flows and such undiscounted cash flows differ from the amount
included in the statement of financial position. When the counterparty has a choice of
when an amount is paid, the liability is included on the basis of the earliest date on
which it can be required to pay.
The liquidity risk refers to the difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial
liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. It is expected
that all the liabilities will be paid at their contractual maturity. In order to meet such
cash commitments the operating activity is expected to generate sufficient cash
inflows.

The analysis has been performed separately for fixed interest rate and floating interest
rate financial instruments. The impact of a change in interest rates on fixed interest
rate financial instruments has been assessed in terms of changing of their fair value.
The impact of a change in interest rates on floating interest rate financial instruments
has been assessed in terms of changing of their cash flows and therefore in terms of
the impact on net expenses. The hypothetical changes in basis points are not based
on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

32H. Commodity Risks
Commodity risk is the risk of fluctuations in the price of raw material feed production
such as corn and soybean, which are commodities. Managements policies to mitigate
this risk are to use a formula that allows the use of raw material substitutes for the raw
materials commodities without reducing the quality of the products, and the transfer of
price increases to customers.
Besides the Group is continuously overseeing the optimal inventory level by entering in
a purchase agreement when there are cheaper prices with reference to the production
plan and materials requirements.

APPENDIX CREGULATION
SUMMARY OF RELEVANT INDONESIAN LAWS AND REGULATIONS
Animal Feed Production Industry
Regulation of the Indonesian animal feed production industry falls within the jurisdiction of the
Directorate General of the Agriculture and Chemical Industry. All industrial activities are
regulated by Industrial Law No. 3 of 2014 (Law No. 3/2014). All industrial businesses,
including the animal feed production industry, must obtain an Industrial Business License
which is issued by the Industry and Trade Department at the regency or municipality level,
and the license shall remain valid for as long as the company carries on its industrial
activities. Industrial licenses are regulated pursuant to Government Regulation on Industrial
Business License No. 13 of 1995 (Government Regulation No. 13/1995).
Environmental licenses are considered to be an important requirement in conducting
industrial business within Indonesia. A company which carries on animal feed production
activities must prepare an Environmental Monitoring Efforts Report or an Environmental
Management Efforts Report, as a prerequisite to an application for an Industrial Business
License. The objective of environmental licenses is to ensure that industry activities are not
conducted in a manner that may be harmful to the environment.
Companies that are engaged in production of animal feed must comply with provisions set out
in Ministry of Agriculture Decree Number 240/Kpts.OT.210/4/2003 on Guidance on Animal
Feed Production (Decree of 240/2003), as well as Minister of Agriculture Regulation
No. 65/Permentan/OT.140/9/2007 on Guidance on the Supervision of Animal Feed Quality
(Regulation No. 65/2007), and Minister of Agriculture Regulation Number 19/Permentan/
OT.140/4/2009 onStock Feed Registration Procedures and Requirements (Regulation
No. 19/2009). Under Regulation No. 19/2009, animal feed which is manufactured for the
purpose of sale and distribution must comply with certain quality standards and minimum
technical requirements, and it is therefore necessary to register animal feed production
operations with the Director General of Farm Production. After completing registration, the
company is required to submit an application to the Head of Livestock Agency, following
which an examination will be carried out to assess the quality of the animal feed which the
company produces. Provided that the feed complies with the relevant quality requirements,
the company will receive confirmation that the feed has passed the examination process and
the will be granted an Animal Feed Quality Certificate by the Animal Feed Quality
Examination Center under the Ministry of Agriculture or private accredited Animal Feed
Quality Examination Center. Before the animal feed can be produced and distributed for sale,
the feed must be registered with the Director General of Farm Production under the Ministry
of Agriculture.
Poultry and Cow Breeding and Farming
The poultry and cow breeding and farming industry is regulated by specific laws and
regulations relating to the importation of animals and, in particular, importation of certain
breeds, as well as separate laws and regulations in relation to poultry and cow farming and
breeding.
Under Government Regulation No. 16/1977, poultry husbandry in Indonesia is classified
according to four sub-categories, namely: (i) laying pullet husbandry; (ii) broiler husbandry;
(iii) final stock husbandry; and (iv) other poultry husbandry. Cow husbandry is classified into
two categories, namely (i) beef cattle husbandry; and (ii) dairy cow husbandry.
Generally, the main laws and regulations that govern farming activities in Indonesia are Law
No. 18 of 2009 on Animal Husbandry and Health (Law No. 18/2009) and the implementing
regulations that were issued prior to the enactment of Law No. 18/2009 such as Government
C-1
Regulation No. 16 of 1977 on Farm Business (Government Regulation No. 16/1977) and
Minister of Agriculture Decree Number 404/KPTS/OT.210/6/2002 on the Guidance of
Licensing and Registration of Farm Businesses (Minister Decree No. 404/2002), which
remain valid as long as they are not in conflict with Law No. 18/2009.
Under Law No. 18/2009, every farm must obtain a Farm Business License to conduct farming
activities above certain scale. Farms under such scale will be granted a Farm Registration
Certificate by the local regent/mayor in the area where the farm is located. The
aforementioned Farm Business License may be granted once a company has obtained inprinciple approval for its farming activities.
Further, Minister Decree No. 404/2002 stipulates that (i) farms with more than 10,000 laying
pullet stocks are required to obtain a Farm Business License while farms with 10,000 laying
pullet stocks are required to obtain a Farm Registration Certificate; (ii) farms with more than
15,000 broiler stocks/cycle are required to obtain a Farm Business License while farms with
15,000 broiler stocks/cycle are required to obtain a Farm Registration Certificate; and
(iii) farms with more than 100 cows are required to obtain a Farm Business License while
farms with 100 cows are required to obtain a Farm Registration Certificate.
Principal Approval
Under Minister Decree No. 404/2002, a company must apply to the local regent/mayor for
principal approval prior to obtaining a Farm Business License. The principal approval is
granted to enable Farm Business License applicants to start administrative and physical
preparation activities in relation to, among other things, their location permits, building
permits, expatriate permits, installation permits and other permits required by the prevailing
laws and regulations. The principal approval is valid for one year and may be extended once
for another one year term.
Farm Business License
The Farm Business License is issued by the local regent/mayor and is granted to a company
that has obtained principle approval and is ready to conduct production activities. The Farm
Business License is valid as long as the license holder conducts its farm business activities
and may be revoked if the license holder:
a.
does not conduct business activities within the 3 months after the issuance of the Farm
Business License or ceases its activities for one year;
b.
moves the farm location without prior consent from the license issuer;
c.
d.
does not submit a farm business report to the relevant authority three consecutive
time;
e.
transfers the license to another party without prior notification to the license issuer;
f.
g.
does not conduct infectious animal disease prevention and eradication and work safety
procedures in accordance with the prevailing laws and regulations.
Local regulations also have an important role in regulating farm businesses, particularly in
relation to poultry husbandry businesses. Some local governments may require farm
businesses to obtain an Avian Influenza-Free Certificate, particularly in local areas which are
at a risk of an Avian Influenza outbreak. Typically, local services (including the Livestock
Agency at Regency or City level) will conduct Avian Influenza examinations of local
husbandry sites. For more information, see Regulations relating to the prevention and
control of Avian Influenza.
Health issues are considered to be important in relation to poultry importation activities.
Poultry which is imported to Indonesia must be guaranteed as being free from any kind of
disease that may harm humans and other animals in Indonesia or which may be harmful to
the environment generally. In order to avoid the spread of any animal disease in Indonesia, all
animals which are imported are subjected to quarantine procedures before being granted an
entry permit to Indonesia. The purpose of these quarantine procedures is to ensure the health
of all animals being imported, given the potential significance of a spread of disease. Such
quarantine procedures may include examination of individual animals, isolation, observation,
treatment, confiscation, rejection, destruction or release, depending upon the outcome of a
veterinary examination.
Indonesia has a number of laws and regulations governing quarantine requirements and
procedures which include, among others, Law No. 16 of 1992 on Animal, Fish and Plant
Quarantine, Government Regulation No. 82 of 2000 on Animal Quarantine, and the Minister
of Agriculture Decree No. 422/Kpts/LB.720/6/1988, as amended by the Decree of Minister of
Agriculture No. 212/Kpts/LB.720/4/2001 on Animal Quarantine Regulation.
In order to guarantee the health of all imported animals, a health certificate is required to be
granted by the country of origin and the transit country, and such a health certificate must be
submitted for verification at designated entry locations. Imported animals that are quarantined
will be examined by quarantine veterinarians, and animals that are confirmed as being free
from disease may be released from quarantine and are permitted to enter Indonesia.
According to Indonesian laws and regulations, a number of documents are required for animal
importation including, among others, (i) a Certificate of Animal Health and Certificate of Origin
(both of which are granted by the country of origin), as set out in the Minister of Agriculture
Decree No. 07/Permentan/OT.140/1/2008 on Requirement and Procedure of Livestock
Semen, Seed and Cattle Import, (ii) a Temporary Animal Quarantine Permit (in order to put
the imported animals into quarantine) issued by the Quarantine Body under the Directorate
General of Livestock and (iii) an Entering Permission Letter, confirming authorization for the
animal(s) to enter Indonesia, as well as (iv) a Release Certificate issued by the veterinarian
under the Quarantine Body, Directorate General of Livestock which declares that such
animal(s) may be released from quarantine when certified to be healthy and free of disease.
Aquaculture
The key Indonesian aquaculture laws and regulations include, among others, Law No. 31 of
2004 on Fisheries, as amended by Law No. 45 of 2009, on Fisheries, Decree of Minister of
Marine and Fisheries No. KEP.02/MEN/2007 on Good Aquaculture Practices (Decree
No. 02/2007), Decree of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries Number KEP.01/MEN/2007 on
Requirements on System Quality and Safety of Fisheries Products on Production, Processing
and Distribution Process (Decree No. 01/2007), Decree of the Minister of Marine and
Fisheries Number KEP.28/MEN/2004 on General Guidance for Shrimp Farming (Decree
No. 28/2004), Regulation of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries Number PER.19/MEN/2010
on System Quality and Safety of Fisheries Products Control (Minister Regulation
No. 19/2010), and Regulation of the Minister of Marine and Fisheries Number PER.12/MEN/
2007 on Licenses in Fish Farm Businesses (Minister Regulation No. 12/2007).
C-3
Fisheries, including shrimp ponds and farms, must obtain a Fisheries Business License in
order to perform fisheries business activities. In addition, fisheries with capital investment
facilities must obtain a Capital Investment Recommendation of Fish Farm prior to obtaining
capital investment approval or a business license.
Whether or not a Fisheries Business License and Capital Investment Recommendation of
Fish Farm will be granted to a business will depend upon the size and location of the
fisheries, shrimp ponds and farms in question. For shrimp ponds which employ expatriates
and which are located in more than 12 nautical mills and/or in two provinces or more, the
license and recommendation will be granted by the General Director. The Governor is
responsible for granting Fisheries Business Licenses and Capital Investment
Recommendations of Fish Farms in respect of fisheries, shrimp ponds and farms which are
domiciled within the Governors administrative jurisdiction, which are located within four to
12 nautical mills and/ or consist of two regencies or more, and which do not employ
expatriates or use foreign capital. For fisheries, shrimp ponds and farms located in less than
four nautical mills and which do not employ expatriates, the Fisheries Business License and
Capital Investment Recommendation of Fish Farm will be granted by the Regent or Mayor of
the relevant administrative jurisdiction in which the fisheries, pond or farm is located.
Businesses which operate shrimp ponds must also apply Good Aquaculture Practices, which
is a form of guidance targeted at ensuring that shrimp ponds apply healthy and safe farming
practices in carrying out their activities. Good Aquaculture Practices must be applied in order
to obtain a Certificate of Good Aquaculture Practices. Shrimp ponds that do not obtain such
certification are prohibited from distribution their products as exported raw materials.
Businesses which operate shrimp ponds must take into account the environmental impact
which might occur as a result of such activities. Such businesses are required to prepare an
Environmental Management Efforts Report or an Environmental Monitoring Efforts Report,
which are aimed at ensuring that businesses are not carrying out activities which may be
harmful to the environment. Large shrimp ponds of over 50 hectares are required to carry out
an Environmental Impact Assessment. For more information, see Environmental
Regulation.
The activities of fisheries businesses are required to comply with certain provisions pursuant
to the Decree No. 28/2004 and Decree No. 02/2007. Under Minister Regulation No. 19/2010,
fisheries products must be certified, in order to ensure their quality and safety for distribution
to, and consumed by, humans. Business units that fulfill these quality and safety requirements
in respect of their fisheries products are granted certificates, namely:
a.
b.
Certificate of Good Fish Handling Practices, granted for fish freights and/or fishing
vessels by the Chief of Fishing Port or the Head of Provincial Fisheries Agency;
c.
Certificate of Good Fish Handling Practices, granted for fish collection, suppliers or
distribution unit by the Head of the Technical Implementation Unit of the Fish
Quarantine and Inspection Agency;
d.
Certificate of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point, granted by the Head of the Fish
Quarantine and Inspection Agency;
e.
Certificate of Health, granted by the Head of the Technical Implementation Unit of the
Fish Quarantine and Inspection Agency, Head of Laboratory or other competent
authority.
C-4
Breeding and farming activities of fisheries businesses are monitored by the competent
authority, which is a segment of the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries in the Republic of
Indonesia. Such monitoring activities are conducted in order to ensure the quality and safety
of fisheries products for human consumption.
Post-harvest Industries (such as slaughter houses and cold storages)
Minister of Agriculture No. 13/PERMENTAN/OT.140/1/2010 on Requirements of Slaughter
House for Ruminansia Animal and Meat Cutting Plant (Minister Regulation No. 13/2010).
In order to ensure and guarantee the quality and health of meat produced, slaughter houses
and cold storage operations must obtain a Veterinary Control Number (Nomor Kontrol
Veteriner, NKV). The granting of the NKV is dependent on fulfillment of certain hygiene and
sanitation technical requirements for buildings, facilities and infrastructures.
Under Minister Regulation No. 381/2005, prior to obtaining an NKV, slaughter houses and
cold storage operations must fulfill certain administrative and technical requirements. The
administrative requirements include obtaining a Deed of Establishment, a Domicile Statement
Letter, a Trading Business License, a Taxpayer Registration Number and a Nuisance
License. The technical requirements include obtaining an Environmental Management Efforts
Report or an Environmental Monitoring Efforts Report, in order to ensure that the companys
activities are not being carried out in a manner that is harmful to the environment. The NKV
must be stamped on the packaging of meat, eggs, and milk. The meat must also be certified
by a Statement Letter of Meat Hygiene by the Veterinary Doctor at the slaughter house.
Minister Regulation No. 13/2010 regulates the building or building area of a slaughter house.
The slaughter house must comply with the technical provisions of the Indonesian National
Standard of Slaughter Houses for Animal (SNI 01-6159-1999) and the Indonesian National
Standard of Slaughter Houses for Poultry (SNI 01-6160-1999). In addition, cold storage
facilities at slaughter houses that also produce chilled or frozen fresh meat must be a specific
size based on the number of frozen products stored there and must be maintained at a
required temperature.
A company that conducts animal slaughtering or meat cutting business must obtain an Animal
Slaughtering and/or Meat Cutting Business License, together with a Slaughtering House
Construction License from the Regent / Mayor of the administrative jurisdiction in which the
slaughter house is located. The Animal Slaughtering and/or Meat Cutting Business License
can be revoked if the company conducts slaughtering and/or meat cutting activities in a
location for which it has not obtained a Slaughtering House Construction License. Companies
are also required to have a veterinary doctor who is certified in the veterinary social hygiene
sector supervise their slaughter houses.
General Trade
On March 11, 2014, the President of the Republic of Indonesia passed Law No. 7 of 2014 on
Trade (Law No. 7/2014). Law No. 7/2014 requires all businesses operating in Indonesia to
secure proper licenses issued by the Minister of Trade, who may transfer or delegate its
authority over licensing to regional governments or a particular technical agency. Proper
licenses include relevant business licenses, special licenses, registration, recognition and
approval.
One of the basic licenses that must be secured is Trade Business License (Surat Izin Usaha
Perdagangan), which is regulated under the Minister of Trade Regulation No. 36/M-DAG/
PER/9/2007 on Trade Business License Issuance, most recently amended by Regulation
No. 39/M-DAG/PER/12/2011. The Trade Business License will remain valid and can be used
for as long as the company carries on its trade business activities.
Trade Business Licenses are of three types:
1.
Small-scale Trade Business License, for companies with capital < IDR 200 million;
C-5
2.
3.
Large-scale Trade Business License, for companies with capital > IDR 500 million.
If a business conducts its activities without securing proper licenses, penalties of up to four
years of imprisonment and an IDR 10 billion fine may be applied.
Governments Price Policy
According to Article 26 of Law No. 7/2014, under certain conditions that may disrupt national
trading activities, Government shall ensure the supply and price stabilization of important and
essential goods to maintain price affordability at consumer level and protect the revenue of
the producer of such goods. Further, Article 26 paragraph (3) of the Law No. 7/2014 stipulates
that Minister of Trade may set price policy, logistics and stock management, as well as import
and export management.
In relation to the above, on April 15, 2014, the Minister of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia
issued a letter in relation to the selling price of DOCs at the breeder level. Through this letter,
the Minister requested all poultry husbandry stakeholders to sell DOC/final stock at maximum
price of IDR 3,200/head and decrease the production of broiler and layer egg hatching by
15%. The letter states that this is to maintain the availability of supply and so that there would
be no retail price hikes in consumer level during national holiday. These measures listed in
the letter were effective for one month commencing on April 15, 2014, and shall be subject to
weekly evaluation as well as any adjustment from time to time. Further, the letter also
requires producers to supply DOCs to independent commercial farmers and to their own
farms at a ratio of 70:30. The letter was addressed to all the companies operating in poultry
breeding sector (which includes us) as listed in the letter and as coordinated by Federation of
Indonesia Poultry Husbandry (Gabungan Perusahaan Pembibitan Unggas or GPPU).
Regulations relating to the prevention and control of Avian Influenza
In order to prevent, control, and eradicate the Avian Influenza virus, the Directorate General
of Husbandry on Department of Agricultural has issued Decree No. 05018/Kpts/PD.610/F/
12/2008 on the amendment of Decree of the Directorate General of Husbandry No. 45/KPTS/
PD.610/F/06.06 on the Standard Operational Procedure (SOP) of Avian Influenza Epidemic
Control in Indonesia (Decree No. 05018/2008). The SOP has been a model for every state
and regional government in taking action to prevent, control, and eradicate Avian Influenza
throughout Indonesia. The Head of Husbandry Services or related government offices that
have responsibility for Husbandry and Animal Health Affairs in every province or regency in
Indonesia, together with the relevant society, will supervise the performance of controls of
Avian Influenza in their region.
The SOP provides directions and guidance in relation to the action which must be taken by
Poultry Business Industries in order to prevent the spread of Avian Influenza in Indonesia.
The SOP applies to all sectors of the poultry industry which consist of Large Scale Poultry
and Breeding Farms (Sector 1 and Sector 2), Middle Scale Poultry Farms (Sector 3), Small
Scale Poultry Farms (Sector 4) and Poultry Markets, Poultry Shelters, Poultry Slaughter
Yards and other locations of poultry nurseries in, among other locations, Zoos, Bird Parks,
Animal Parks and Poultry Breeding and Conservation Centers. The contents and chapters of
the SOP are:
1.
Internal policy on biosecurity, which stipulates the procedures for the first diseases
eradication defense which is conducted in order to prevent all possible contact/spread
of disease from an infected farm. Internal policy on biosecurity procedures apply to
every poultry farm, shelter and slaughter yard and all veterinary equipment.
C-6
2.
3.
Vaccination, which stipulates the procedures and techniques for vaccinations, with the
Government is responsible for the vaccination for Sector 4 of the poultry industry
(Small Scale Poultry Farm).
4.
Supervision and limitation of poultry traffic, products, equipment, and poultry waste,
which stipulates rules which are targeted at managing traffic, products, equipment, and
waste in relation to, among other things, DOC, broilers, layers, eggs, and stock feed.
5.
Early detection and pre-diagnostic judgment, which stipulates the initial action which
must be taken, and the procedure of reporting any cases of suspected Avian Influenza.
This chapter also stipulates directions in relation to rapid testing to detect Avian
Influenza and the making of a pre-diagnostic judgment on the basis of clinical,
pathological, anatomical, and epidemical indicators.
6.
Poultry restocking, which stipulates terms and conditions for re-stocking poultry back
into the cage after all disposal, disinfection and cage emptying actions are completed
in accordance with the stipulated procedures.
7.
Decree No. 05018/2008 governs the SOP which is to be applied in every region throughout
Indonesia, although it does not stipulate any sanctions for poultry businesses who fail to
comply with the SOP. However, regional government authorities may enact Regional
Regulations, Governor Regulations or Regent Regulations in relation to the prevention,
control, and eradication of Avian Influenza pursuant to Decree No. 05018/2008, which may
stipulate sanctions for non-compliance. Each individual region may therefore govern different
terms and conditions for the treatment of Avian Influenza problems according to local
considerations.
There are a number of prevailing regulations which apply in several regions and which govern
prevention of Avian Influenza as follows:
a.
b.
(1)
the Husbandry office or related government office which has responsibility for
Husbandry Affairs shall, together with participation from the relevant society,
perform certain supervisory duties; and
(2)
Governor of West Java Regulation No. 19/2007 on Intensification for Control of Bird
Flu Virus (Avian Influenza) in West Java.
The terms, conditions, and requirements stipulated in this regulation are similar to the
SOP which is stipulated in Decree No. 05018/2008.
c.
Environmental Regulation
Environmental protection in Indonesia is governed by various laws, regulations and decrees.
On October 3, 2009, Law No. 32 of 2009 on Protection and Management of Environment
(Law No. 32/2009) replaced Law No. 23 of 1997 on Environmental Management. However,
the implementing regulations in respect of Law No. 32/2009 have not yet been issued to date.
Therefore, the existing regulations, including Law No. 32/2009, Government
Regulation No. 27 of 1999 on Environmental Impact Analysis (Analisa Mengenai Dampak
Lingkungan or AMDAL) and Decree of the State Minister of Environmental Affairs No. 05 of
2012 on Types of Businesses/Activities that Require Environmental Impact Analysis
(Minister Decree No. 05/2012) are still applicable to the extent they do not conflict with
Law No. 32/2009.
Minister Decree No. 05/2012 stipulates, among other matters, that companies whose
operations have an environmental or social impact must obtain and maintain an AMDAL
document, which according to Government Regulation No. 27 of 2012 on Environmental
Licenses (Government Regulation No. 27/2012) consists of Guidelines on Environmental
Impact Analysis (Kerangka Acuan Analisis Dampak Lingkungan or KA ANDAL), an
Environmental Impact Analysis (Analisis Dampak Lingkungan or ANDAL), an Environmental
Management Plan (Rencana Pengelolaan Lingkungan or RKL) and an Environmental
Monitoring Plan (Rencana Pemantauan Lingkungan or RPL). Where the AMDAL document is
not required, a company must prepare an Environmental Management Effort (Upaya
Pengelolaan Lingkungan) and an Environmental Monitoring Effort (Upaya Pemantauan
Lingkungan).
Law No. 32/2009 introduced the environmental license (Izin Lingkungan). Pursuant to Law
No. 32/2009, any company that has an AMDAL or UKL/UPL must also submit an application
to obtain an environmental license (Izin Lingkungan) issued by the Ministry of Environmental
Affairs, governor, mayor or regent, as applicable. Government Regulation No. 27/2012
stipulates that the application for an environmental license must be submitted along with its
supporting documents, including: (i) AMDAL or UKL/UPL documents, (ii) deed of
incorporation of the business entity, and (iii) profile of business/ activity The granting of an
C-8
environmental license is based on either (i) an environmental feasibility study carried out by
an independent third party, which is approved by the AMDAL Assessment Commission
(Komisi Penilai Amdal), the Minister of Environmental Affairs, governor, mayor or regent, as
applicable or (ii) a recommendation in a UKL and UPL issued by the appropriate Government
or regional government institution responsible for the environmental management and control
of the relevant area. The environmental license shall be issued by the Minister of
Environmental Affairs, governor, mayor or regent, as the case may be, at the same time
during the issuance of the Decree of AMDAL worthiness (AMDAL approval) or UKL/ UPL
Recommendation.
Law No. 32/2009 requires that by October 3, 2011 all companies that have business licenses

by the Peoples governments at the county level, and filed with the land resource bureau at
the county level.
Water Drawing
Pursuant to the Regulation on the Administration of the License for Water Drawing and the
Levy of Water Resource Fees (
which was promulgated by the
State Council on February 21, 2006 and became effective on April 15, 2006, and the PRC
Law of Water (
) which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the
NPC on August 29, 2002 and became effective on October 1, 2002, Each organization or
individual that abstracts water resources shall apply for and obtain a water abstraction license
and pay water resources charges, except for the circumstances that (1) to abstract water by a
rural collective economic organization or any of its members from a pond or reservoir

Environment
Pursuant to the Regulations on the Administration of Construction Project Environmental
Protection issued and implemented (
) on November 29, 1998 by the
State Council and the Law of Environmental Impact Assessment of the PRC
(
) implemented on September 1, 2003, the PRC Government
established a system that evaluates the environmental impact of a construction project. A
construction unit should, prior to the commencement of construction of the construction
project, submit the construction project environmental impact report, environmental impact
statement or environmental impact registration form for approval. Besides, the construction
unit should, upon the completion of the construction project, file an application with the
competent department of environmental protection administration that examined and
approved the said construction project environmental impact report, environmental impact
statement or environmental impact registration form for acceptance checks on completion of
matching construction of environmental protection facilities required for the said construction
project. These enterprises must implement effective measures to prevent and control the
pollution and harm caused to the environment by waste gases, waste water, waste residues,
dust, malodorous gases, radioactive substances, noise, vibration and electromagnetic
radiation generated in the course of production, construction or other activities. Installations
for the prevention and control of pollution at a construction project must be designed, built and
commissioned together with the principal part of the project.

environmental protection; and
generally freely convertible for payments of current account items, such as trade and servicerelated foreign exchange transactions and dividend payments, but not freely convertible for
capital account items, such as capital transfer, direct investment, investment in securities,
derivative products or loans unless the prior approval by the competent authorities for the
administration of foreign exchange is obtained.
Dividend Distribution
The principal regulations governing distributions of dividends of foreign holding companies
include the PRC Company Law (
) amended on December 28, 2013 and
became effective from March 1, 2014, the Foreign Investment Enterprise Law
(
) effective from October 31, 2000, and the Administrative Rules
under the Foreign Investment Enterprise Law (
) effective from
April 12, 2001 and amended on February 19, 2014. Under these laws and regulations, foreign
invested enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any,
determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, wholly
foreign owned enterprises in China, like our PRC subsidiary, are required to allocate at least
10% of their respective accumulated profits after tax each year, if any, to fund certain reserve
funds unless these accumulated reserves have reached 50% of the registered capital of the
enterprises. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Profits of a wholly foreign
owned enterprise shall not be distributed before the losses thereof in the previous accounting
years have been made up. Any undistributed profit for the previous accounting years may be
distributed together with the distributable profit for the current accounting year.
According to the Agreement between the Government of the Peoples Republic of China and
the Government of a foreign country (Contracting Party), dividends paid by a company
which is a resident of a Contracting Party to a resident of the other Contracting Party may be
taxed in that other Party. However, such dividends may also be taxed in the Contracting Party
of which the company paying the dividends is a resident and according to the laws of that
Party, but if the beneficial owner of the dividends is a resident of the other Contracting Party,
the tax so charged shall not exceed (a) 5 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends if the
beneficial owner is a company (other than a partnership) which holds directly at least 25 per
cent of the capital of the company paying the dividends; and (b) 10 per cent of the gross
amount of the dividends in all other cases.
Labor and Employment
The Labor Contract Law of the PRC (
) (the Labor Contract Law)
whose amendments made on December 28, 2012 took effect on July 1, 2013, and whose
Regulations
on
the
Implementation
of
PRC
Labor
Contract
Law
(
) took effect on September 18, 2008, govern the relationship
between employers and employees and provides for specific provisions in relation to the terms
and conditions of an employment contract. The Labor Contract Law stipulates that employment
contracts must be in writing and signed. It imposes more stringent requirements on employers in
relation to entering into fixed-term employment contracts, hiring of temporary employees and
dismissal of employees.
The Regulation on Work-Related Injury Insurance (
), which was last amended on
December 20, 2010 and became effective on January 1, 2011, requires employers to pay
work-related injury insurance fees for their employees.
Under the Interim Measures Concerning the Maternity Insurance of Enterprises Employees
(
), which became effective on January 1, 1995, employers must pay
maternity insurance fees for their employees.
Under applicable PRC laws and regulations, including the Social Insurance Law of The PRC
(
), which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the NPC on
C-14
October 28, 2010 and became effective on July 1, 2011, and the Regulations on the
Administration of Housing Accumulation Fund (
), which was amended by
the State Council on March 24, 2002, employers and/or employees (as the case may be) are
required to contribute to a number of social security funds, including funds for basic pension
insurance, unemployment insurance, basic medical insurance, occupational injury insurance,
maternity leave insurance, and to housing provident funds. These payments are made to local
administrative authorities and employers who fail to contribute may be fined and ordered to
rectify within a stipulated time limit.
C-15
On November 29, 2005, the Law on Enterprises (as subsequently amended by Law
No. 38/2009/QH12 on June 19, 2009 and Law No. 37/2013/QH13 on June 20, 2013) (Law
on Enterprises) and the common Law on Investment (as amended by Law
No. 32/2013/QH13 on June 19, 2013) (Law on Investment) were promulgated to simplify
administrative procedures and provide more equal treatment to local and foreign businesses.
The laws together with their implementing regulations enable foreign investors to invest in any
sector of the Vietnamese economy except certain prohibited sectors (for example, projects
that are detrimental to national security, morals or are harmful to public health etc.) subject to
caps in specific circumstances as described below. In certain sectors (for example,
broadcasting and television, transportation, education and training, and hospitals and clinics
etc.), investments are subject to specific entry conditions. These conditions must, however,
be consistent with the market entry commitments that Vietnam has made in international
treaties, including the WTO commitments.
a.
Shareholder Rights
Under the Law on Enterprises, shareholders of a joint stock company, including minority
shareholders, have the right to vote at a general meeting of shareholders. A shareholders
resolution on most of the matters subject to a decision of shareholders will be passed by a
vote of such shareholders representing at least 65% (or a higher threshold prescribed by the
charter) of the voting shares present in person or by proxy at a general meeting. With respect
to key matters such as resolutions relating to the classes and number of shares of each class
to be offered for sale, amendments to the charter, the restructuring and/or dissolution of the
company, investments in or sales of assets equal to or exceeding 50% (or a lower percentage
as provided in the companys charter) of the total value of the assets of the company, a
proposal to pass such resolutions will require the approval of shareholders representing at
least 75% (or a higher threshold prescribed by the charter) of the voting shares held by those
present in person or by proxy at a general meeting. Approval of shareholders representing at
least 75% (or a higher threshold prescribed by the charter) of the total voting shares of the
company is required to pass a resolution by way of collecting written opinions.
Minority shareholders may gather into a group holding more than 10% of the total ordinary
shares of the company in question (or a smaller threshold prescribed by the companys
charter) for a consecutive period of at least six months so as to be entitled to (i) collectively
nominate candidates to the board of management (the BOM) and/or the inspection
committee; (ii) review and make a copy or extract of the minutes and resolutions of the BOM,
interim and annual financial statement and reports of the inspection committee; (iii) request
the convening of a general shareholders meeting in circumstances prescribed by law or the
charter; and (iv) where appropriate, to request the inspection committee to investigate a
particular issue relating to the management and/ or the administration of the operations of
such company.
A shareholder voting against the re-organization of the company (such as division,
separation, consolidation or merger) or against a change in the rights and obligations of
shareholders stipulated in the companys charter may demand that the company in question
redeems its shares at the market price or at a price determined in accordance with the
provisions prescribed in the companys charter.
C-16
Owners Rights
Under the Law on Enterprises, the incorporated owner of a one-member limited liability
company has the right to decide on all material issues relating to the operation of that
company, including but not limited to (i) contents of the companys charter and its amendment
or supplement; (ii) the development strategy and annual business plan of the company;
(iii) the structure of organization and management of the company; (iv) investment projects,
sale of assets or other transactions valued at 50% or more (or a smaller threshold if
prescribed by the charter) of total assets value recorded in the latest financial statement of the
company; (v) increase of the charter capital or transfer of a part or the whole of the charter
capital of the company to another organization or individual; (vi) use of profits after fulfilling
tax and other financial obligations of the company; and (vii) re-organization, dissolution and
bankruptcy of the company. The owner may authorize the Members Council to perform all
the rights and obligations of the owner in relation to the company.
Restrictions on the Owners Rights
The owner shall be entitled to withdraw the capital from the company only by transferring a
part or the whole of the charter capital to another organization or individual. If only a party of
the charter capital is transferred, the company shall have to transform into a limited liability
with two or more members or a joint stock company with at least three shareholders.
The owner must not withdraw profits if the company fails to fully pay off due debts and other
property liabilities.
A one member limited liability company is not permitted to reduce its charter capital. The
company may increase its charter capital by having the owner to inject more capital or by
receiving capital contribution from other investors (in which case the company shall have to
transform into a limited liability with two or more members or a joint stock company with at
least three shareholders).
C-17
Except for public companies (including listed companies) and companies operating in certain
industries and sectors (such as banks, advertising, telecommunication etc.) in which foreign
ownership is regulated, foreign investors are free to hold capital interests in Vietnamese
companies.
2.
Land Law
All land belongs to the people of Vietnam and is administered by the State for long-term use
by the people. Although private freehold ownership over land is not permitted, persons may
have legal rights to use land in Vietnam, and are regarded as land users. In case a land user
is granted long-term land use right, in effect, such person may have the rights similar to a
freehold ownership over such land. Vietnamese persons can have freehold ownership over
residential houses and apartments. The current regime of land management and use,
including the rights and obligations of land users, is set forth in the Land Law passed on
November 26, 2003 by the National Assembly of Vietnam (as amended by Law
No. 15/2008/QH12 dated June 3, 2008; Law No. 34/2009/QH12 dated June 16, 2009; Law
No. 38/2009/QH12 dated June 19, 2009; and Law No. 64/2010/QH12 dated November 24,
2010) and its implementing regulations (the Land Law). The Land Law shall be replaced by
the New Land Law No. 45/2013/QH 13 of the National Assembly of Vietnam dated
November 4, 2013, which shall take effect on July 1, 2014.
The State determines, amongst other things, the following matters in relation to land: the land
use period, land allocation and lease of land, land withdrawal, the purpose of the use of
particular land, land evaluation, land use fees, land rental rates, land tax and the rights and
obligations of land users. Land use rights are determined by reference to the category of land
use (agricultural, non-agricultural which includes residential and industrial land and unused
land) and the type of land user.
Land use rights may be acquired through (i) allocation by the State; (ii) lease from the State;
(iii) through an auction organized by the competent authority; (iv) lease from an authorized
lessor; and (v) taking transfer of land use rights (in the form of exchange, assignment,
inheritance, gift, donation or capital contribution).
An enterprise may elect to pay land use rights fees for the entire land allocation period (in the
event of land allocation) or alternatively, elect to pay land rental in annual installments (in the
event of a land lease). The method of payment will affect the rights (in particular the land use
rights) of the enterprise over the leased or allocated land. Enterprises who elect to pay the
land use fees not using State budget funds or pay land rental in lump sum will have rights
such as being able to mortgage the land use rights of the land and the buildings thereon, to
use the land use rights for the provision of guarantees and to make capital contributions in the
form of the land use rights. In comparison, an enterprise which elects to pay the land use fees
using State budget funds or to pay land rental by annual installments can only use the assets
on the land to make capital contribution or exercise collateral rights.
C-19
All legitimate land users are entitled to obtain land use right certificates in their
name. Similarly, all legitimate owners of property or buildings constructed on land are entitled
to obtain certificates of property ownership. These certificates constitute conclusive evidence
of the rights of land users and property owners. The land users must use the land for the right
purposes as permitted by the State in the relevant land use right certificates. The land use
right certificates also provide the basis for users to exercise their rights, such as to transfer, to
mortgage or to dispose of their land use rights or properties.
3.
a.
Parties have broad freedom to contract and to grant security. There are detailed rules on
creating security as stipulated under the Civil Code of Vietnam adopted by the National
Assembly on June 27, 2005, Decree 163 of the Government dated December 29, 2006 (as
amended by Decree 11 of the Government dated February 22, 2012) on security transactions
and the implementing regulations. Security over land and assets attached to land are also
specifically governed under the Law on Land adopted by the National Assembly on
November 26, 2003 as implemented by Decree 181 of the Government dated October 29,
2004 (as amended) and Inter-Circular 20/2011 of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of
Natural Resource and Environment dated November 18, 2011.
The laws of Vietnam make a distinction between two forms of assets, moveable and
immoveable. Immoveable assets consist of land use rights, buildings and other properties
attached to land. All other assets are deemed to be moveable. Creation of security over both
existing and future property is possible. Assets subject to security must be owned by the
security provider (except for property under the management of State-owned enterprises and
land use rights), transferable and not subject to dispute.
The laws of Vietnam recognize mortgages created over land use rights, buildings and
constructions facilities, where security can be granted in favor of credit institutions in Vietnam,
including foreign bank branches and finance companies licensed in Vietnam. However,
security granted over land use rights in favor of offshore entities is not referred to under the
law but this is usually interpreted to mean that land use rights cannot be mortgaged in favor of
offshore entities. However, enforcement of security is problematic and Vietnam cannot be
considered a creditor friendly jurisdiction.
b.
Labor Code
The new Labor Code of Vietnam was enacted by the National Assembly on June 18, 2012,
which took effect on May 1, 2013, to replace the old Labor Code issued on June 23, 1994 and
amended in 2002, 2006 and 2007. A large body of government and ministry regulations which
were issued to implement the old Labor Code may remain applicable in practice pending the
promulgation of the relevant regulations implementing the new Labor Code.
Labor contract
A labor contract must, with the exception of contracts with a term of less than three months,
be in writing and signed directly between an employee and the authorized legal
representative of a company. Any labor contract must be made on a standard form issued by
the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs and must include the work to be carried
out, working hours and length of break, wage, working place, length of contract term, health
and safety provisions and social insurance. The standard form also contains a provision that
entitles the employer to specify further employment terms and conditions. The contents of a
labor contract must be in compliance with the laws of Vietnam and the collective labor
agreement of the relevant company.
C-20
Environmental Regulations
The Law on Environmental Protection dated November 29, 2005 sets out the general legal
framework for the protection of the environment in Vietnam and imposes penalties for
breaches of its provisions. It aims to limit adverse impact on the environment, control
environmental degradation and pollution, control environmental hazards and exploitation,
encourage the proper use of natural resources and protect biological diversity.
Depending on the nature and scale of each project, either one of the following shall be
required:
(i)
(ii)
The EIAR will be submitted to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, local
peoples committee or executive board of industrial zones and the EPU or RSES, as the case
may be, will be filed with the local Department of Natural Resources and Environment, local
peoples committee or executive board of industrial zones for approval before a
manufacturing plant, clinic or other construction work commences operation. After approval
has been obtained from the relevant authorities, the competent authorities may from time to
time conduct regular inspections to ensure that the relevant environment standards are
complied with.
Monetary fines of up to VND30 million may be levied in the event that the company does not
comply with the contents of the EPU. On the other hand, failure to comply with the EIAR
would result in fines of up to VND200 million. Violations of the environment protection laws
and regulations may incur warnings, payments of damages, fines (up to VND500 million) and
other remedies as specified in Decree No. 179/2013/ND-CP of the Government dated
November 14, 2013.
d.
Prior to the commencement of most commercial construction works, a developer must submit
a fire safety proposal for the building to the fire department. Approval of the fire department is
required before the competent authority can approve the design of the construction works and
grant the construction license, only upon which construction works can commence. Upon
completion of construction, the completed works must be subject to further fire prevention and
fighting tests and be issued with a certificate of acceptance of fire safety before they can be
put into operation.
Under Vietnamese laws on fire prevention and fighting, failure to install fire prevention and
fighting equipment such as an automatic alarm system, fire extinguishers and the like may not
result in suspension of the operation of the relevant construction works but may result in a
penalty in the amount of up to VND10 million.
C-21
e.
Vietnam does not have a unified food law; instead, there are sets of overlapping laws and
regulations that regulate food safety, hygiene, product quality and standards. Food safety and
hygiene is currently regulated by Law No. 55/2010/QH12 on Food Safety on July 1, 2011 (the
Food Safety Law). The Food Safety Law regulates, among other things, food safety in
production and trading, food advertising and labeling, remedies for food safety incidents, food
safety risk analysis and the responsibilities of state food safety management. In addition,
Decree 163/2004/ND-CP of the Government dated September 7, 2004 (Decree 163)
specifically identifies and regulates in details the food products that are subject to food safety
and hygiene and sets out specific requirements for food safety and hygiene, safety standards
and inspection. On April 25, 2012, the Government issued Decree 38/2012/ND-CP
implementing certain articles of the Food Safety Law (Decree 38). By virtue of the issuance
of Decree 38, certain provisions of Decree 163 are no longer effective and applicable.
C-22
Moreover, the food safety is also regulated by various decisions and circulars issued from
time to time by the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and
other ministries provide guidelines on food safety and hygiene.
i.
Prohibition: Any merger in which the participating parties have a combined market
share1 of more than 50% of the relevant market;
(ii)
(iii)
Failure to notify may subject the violating party to a fine ranging from 1 to 3% of its total
revenue in the financial year preceding the year in which the breach was committed. With
respect to breach of prohibited merger, the violating party may be subject to a fine of up to
10% of its total revenue in the financial year preceding the year in which the breach was
committed. In addition to the above fines, the parties may be required to restore their initial
positions prior to the merger.
j.
Laws on Price
Certain special products such as veterinary medicines or milk are required to comply with the
regulations on price management elaborated by the Government. The Law on Price
No.11/QH13 of the National Assembly dated June 20, 2012 also sets out the principles and
methods to stabilize/control the price of such special products when traded in Vietnam. The
organizations registered for production and trading of the special products must comply with
the regulations on price management such as: price listing, price registration, price
declaration and national policy on price stabilization applicable from time to time.
The failure to comply with the price management regulations may result in administrative
sanctions imposed against the breaching party as stipulated by Decree 109 of the
Government dated September 24, 2013 on administrative sanctions against violations of the
law on pricing, fee management, and invoicing.
Combined market share means the total market share in the relevant market of the enterprises participating in a merger.
C-23
Shops & Commercial Establishments Acts of the respective States (Shops Act)
Each State of India has enacted the Shops Act to provide for the regulation of conditions of
work in shops and commercial establishments. The Shops Act prescribes obligations in
respect of, inter alia, registration of establishments, opening and closing hours, daily and
weekly working hours, holidays, leave, health and safety measures.
Environmental Laws
The three major statutes in India which seek to regulate and protect the environment against
pollution and related activities in India are the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act,
1974, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 and the Environment (Protection)
Act, 1986. The basic purpose of these statutes is to control, abate and prevent pollution. In
order to achieve these objectives, Pollution Control Boards (PCBs) which are vested with
diverse powers to deal with water and air pollution, have been set up in each state. The PCBs
are responsible for setting the standards for maintenance of clean air and water, directing the
installation of pollution control devices in industries and undertaking investigations to ensure
that industries are functioning in compliance with the standards prescribed. These authorities
also have the power of search, seizure, and investigation if the authorities are aware of or
suspect pollution. In addition, the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India
receives proposals for expansion, modernization and setting up of projects and it assesses
the impact that such projects would have on the environment before granting clearances for
the proposed projects.
Laws Relating to Employment
The employment of workers of any undertaking or establishment in India is regulated by a
wide variety of generally applicable labor laws. The following is an indicative list of applicable
laws:
The planning, development and use of real property is usually governed by local laws which
differ from one state to another. Usually, under these state laws, real property is categorized
as residential, commercial, industrial or agricultural. Property classified under a particular
category can be used only for such specified purpose and any variation in such use usually
requires conversion permissions to be issued by the relevant town and country planning
authorities. Further, every state has its own set of laws, regulations and bye-laws governing
planned development and construction. In each state, the authorities usually governing
building activities are the town and country planning department, municipal corporations, and
village gram panchayats. These authorities regulate the issuance of consents/permits (such
as commencement certificates, fire No Objection Certificates, occupation certificates and
completion certificates) for each stage of construction and development of real property.
Certain Foreign Investment and Foreign Exchange Laws
The Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA), the rules, regulations and
notifications issued under FEMA by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), and the policy
prescribed by the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), Ministry of
Commerce and Industry, Government of India regulate the manner of undertaking foreign
investment in Indian companies, including the issue and transfer of securities.
The DIPP has issued Circular 1 of 2014 (the FDI Policy) which consolidates the policy
framework on foreign direct investment (FDI), with effect from April 17, 2014. The FDI Policy
consolidates and subsumes all the press notes, press releases, and clarifications on FDI
issued by DIPP till April 16, 2014. The FDI Policy, which is administered by the RBI and the
Foreign Investment Promotion Board, provides for investment caps in certain restricted
sectors. The FDI Policy further sets out the procedures applicable to investments in these
restricted sectors and also in the other sectors where investments are freely permitted. In
accordance with the FDI Policy, foreign direct investment is permitted up to 100% under the
automatic route in all sectors and activities that are not specifically prohibited or permitted
only under the approval route under the FDI Policy.
Japfa Comfeed India Private Limited and Central India Poultry Breeders Private Limited
(Indian Subsidiaries) are engaged in the business of (i) manufacturing poultry feed; and
(ii) owning and operating poultry breeding farms as well as hatcheries under controlled
conditions where micro-climate is controlled through advanced technologies like incubators,
ventilation systems, etc. Foreign investment of up to 100% is permitted under automatic route
in the Indian Subsidiaries.
In addition to the investment caps, the FDI Policy regulates the price at which a non-resident
person (NR) or an Indian company which is owned or controlled by a non-resident (FOCC)
may acquire or divest the shares of an Indian company. As per the FDI Policy, as currently in
place, the price at which a NR/FOCC may acquire equity shares of an unlisted Indian
company cannot be less than the fair valuation of the equity shares of the company as on the
date of such issuance, as determined by a SEBI-registered category-I merchant banker or a
chartered accountant as per the discounted free cash flow method. In the case of divestment/
sale of the shares held by a NR/FOCC, the sale price cannot exceed the fair valuation of the
equity shares of the company as on the date of such divestment, as determined by a SEBIregistered category-I merchant banker or a chartered accountant as per the discounted cash
flow method calculated as per the FDI Policy.
The FEMA and the rules and regulations made thereunder also prohibit a non-resident from
borrowing funds offshore or onshore by creating any form of charge on immovable assets
situated in India without prior approval of the RBI. However, the Indian-incorporated
companies which are in possession of the immovable assets in India are permitted to create a
charge on such assets to raise funds within India, other than for the purposes of making
investments into other Indian-incorporated companies. Further, the Indian-incorporated
companies may also create charges on its immovable assets for raising loans from offshore
lenders subject to compliance with the FEMA.
C-26
Any contravention or non-compliance with the FEMA or the FDI Policy is liable to attract
monetary penalties or civil imprisonment if such penalties are not paid, or result in
confiscation of relevant assets.

SHAREHOLDERS
Only persons who are registered in our register of Shareholders and, in cases in which the
person so registered is CDP, the persons named as the depositors (as defined in the
Singapore Companies Act) in the depository register maintained by CDP for our ordinary
shares, are recognized as shareholders.
For the purpose of determining the number of votes which a Shareholder who is an accountholder directly with CDP or a depository agent, or his proxy, may cast at any general meeting
on a poll, the reference to shares held or represented shall, in relation to shares of that
Shareholder, be the number of shares entered against his name in the register maintained
with CDP 48 hours before the time of the relevant general meetings as certified by CDP to us.
We will not, except as required by law, recognize any equitable, contingent, future or partial
interest in any ordinary share or other rights for any ordinary share other than the absolute
right thereto of the registered holder of the ordinary share or of the person whose name is
entered in the depository register for that ordinary share.
We may close the register of Shareholders for any time or times if we provide the SGX-ST
with at least 10 clear Market Days notice. However, the register may not be closed for more
than 30 days in aggregate in any calendar year. We would typically close the register to
determine Shareholders entitlement to receive dividends and other distributions.
TRANSFER OF ORDINARY SHARES
Our Board of Directors may decline to register any transfer of ordinary shares which are not
fully paid shares or ordinary shares on which we have a lien. Our Board of Directors may also
decline to register any instrument of transfer unless, among other things, it has been duly
stamped and is presented for registration together with the share certificate and such other
evidence of title as they may require. Ordinary shares may be transferred by a duly signed
instrument of transfer in any form approved by the Directors and the SGX-ST. There is no
restriction on the transfer of fully paid shares except where required by law or the listing rules
or by-laws of the SGX-ST. A Shareholder may transfer any ordinary shares held through the
SGX-ST book entry settlement system by way of a book-entry transfer without the need for
any instrument of transfer.
We will replace lost or destroyed certificates for Shares if we are properly notified and if the
applicant pays a fee which will not exceed S$2.00 and furnishes any evidence and indemnity
that our Board of Directors may require.
A Shareholder is entitled to attend, speak and vote at any general meeting, in person or by
proxy. Proxies need not be a Shareholder. A person who holds Shares through the SGX-ST
book-entry settlement system will only be entitled to vote at a general meeting as a
Shareholder if his name appears on the depository register maintained by CDP 48 hours
before the general meeting.
VOTING RIGHTS
Except as otherwise provided in our Articles of Association, two or more Shareholders must
be present in person or by proxy to constitute a quorum at any general meeting. Under our
Articles of Association:
on a show of hands, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one
vote (provided that in the case of a Shareholder who is represented by two proxies, only
one of the two proxies as determined by that Shareholder or, failing such determination,
by the chairman of the meeting (or by a person authorized by the chairman) shall be
entitled to vote on a show of hands); and
on a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for each
Share which he holds or represents.
E-2
by any Shareholder present in person or by proxy and representing not less than 10.0%
of the total voting rights of all Shareholders having the right to attend and vote at the
meeting.
However, no poll may be demanded on the election of the chairman of the meeting or on a
question of adjournment of the meeting. In the case of a tied vote, whether on a show of
hands or a poll, the chairman of the meeting shall not be entitled to a casting vote.
GENERAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS
We are required to hold an annual general meeting every year. Our Board of Directors may
convene an extraordinary general meeting whenever it thinks fit and must do so if
Shareholders representing not less than 10.0% of the total voting rights of all Shareholders
request in writing that such a meeting be held. In addition, two or more Shareholders holding
not less than 10.0% of our issued share capital may call a meeting. Unless otherwise required
by law or by our Articles of Association, voting at general meetings is by ordinary resolution,
requiring an affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast at that meeting. An ordinary
resolution suffices, for example, for the appointment of directors. A special resolution,
requiring the affirmative vote of at least 75.0% of the votes cast at the meeting, is necessary
for certain matters under Singapore law, such as the voluntary winding up of the company,
amendments to our Memorandum and Articles of Association, a change of the Companys
corporate name and a reduction in our share capital.
We must give at least 21 days notice in writing for every general meeting convened for the
purpose of passing a special resolution. Ordinary resolutions generally require at least 14
days notice in writing. For so long as our Shares are listed on the SGX-ST, at least 14 days
notice of any general meeting shall be given in writing to the SGX-ST and by advertisement in
the daily press. The notice must be given to every Shareholder holding shares conferring the
right to attend and vote at the meeting and must set forth the place, the day and the hour of
the meeting and, in the case of special business, the general nature of that business. All
general meetings shall be held in Singapore.
LIMITATIONS ON RIGHTS TO HOLD OR VOTE SHARES
Singapore law and our Articles of Association do not impose any limitations on the right of
non-resident or foreign Shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights attached to our Shares.
DIVIDENDS
We may, by ordinary resolution of our Shareholders, declare dividends at a general meeting,
but we may not pay dividends in excess of the amount recommended by our Board of
Directors. Our Board of Directors may also declare an interim dividend without the approval of
our Shareholders.
We must pay all dividends out of our profits. All dividends we pay are pro rata in amount to
our Shareholders in proportion to the amount paid-up on each Shareholders Shares, unless
the rights attaching to an issue of any Share provide otherwise.
Unless otherwise directed, dividends are paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post to
each Shareholder at his registered address appearing in our register of members or (as the
case may be) the depository register. However, our payment to CDP of any dividend payable
to a Shareholder whose name is entered in the depository register shall, to the extent
payment made to CDP, discharge us from any liability to that Shareholder in respect of that
payment.

concert, a general offer to all other shareholders is normally required. An offeror must treat all
shareholders of the same class in an offeree company equally. A fundamental requirement is
that shareholders in the company subject to the takeover offer must be given sufficient
information, advice and time to consider and decide on the offer.
LIQUIDATION OR OTHER RETURN OF CAPITAL
If the Company liquidates or in the event of any other return of capital, holders of the Shares
will be entitled to participate in any surplus assets in proportion to their shareholdings, subject
to any special rights attaching to any other class of shares then existing.
INDEMNITY
As permitted by Singapore law, our Articles of Association provide that, subject to the
Singapore Companies Act, we will indemnify our Board of Directors and officers against any
liability incurred in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, which relate to
anything done or omitted to have been done as an officer, director or employee and in which
judgment is given in his favor or if the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any
finding or admission of any material breach of duty on his part or in which he is acquitted or in
connection with any application for relief which is granted to him by the court.
We may not indemnify directors and officers against any liability which by law would otherwise
attach to them in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which
they may be guilty in relation to the Company.
SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDINGS
Under the Securities and Futures Act, a person has a substantial shareholding in our
Company if he has an interest (or interests) in one or more voting shares (excluding treasury
shares) in our Company and the total votes attached to that share or those shares, is not less
than 5.0% of the aggregate of the total votes attached to all voting shares (excluding treasury
shares) in our Company.
The Securities and Futures Act requires our Substantial Shareholders, or if they cease to be
our Substantial Shareholders, to give notice to us of particulars of the voting shares in our
Company in which they have or had an interest (or interests) and the nature and extent of that
interest or those interests, and of any change in the percentage level of their interest.
E-5
In addition, the deadline for a Substantial Shareholder to make disclosure to our Company
under the Securities and Futures Act is two Singapore business days after he becomes
aware:
there being a conclusive presumption of a person being aware of a fact or occurrence at the
time at which he would, if he had acted with reasonable diligence in the conduct of his affairs,
have been aware.
Following the above, we will in turn announce or otherwise disseminate the information stated
in the notice to the SGX-ST as soon as practicable and in any case, no later than the end of
the Singapore business day following the day on which we received the notice.
Percentage level, in relation to a Substantial Shareholder in our Company, means the
percentage figure ascertained by expressing the total votes attached to all the voting shares
in our Company in which the Substantial Shareholder has an interest (or interests)
immediately before or (as the case may be) immediately after the relevant time as a
percentage of the total votes attached to all the voting shares (excluding treasury shares) in
our Company, and, if it is not a whole number, rounding that figure down to the next whole
number.
While the definition of an interest in our voting shares for the purposes of substantial
shareholder disclosure requirements under the Securities and Futures Act is similar to that
under the Singapore Companies Act, the Securities and Futures Act provides that a person
who has authority (whether formal or informal, or express or implied) to dispose of, or to
exercise control over the disposal of, a voting share is regarded as having an interest in such
share, even if such authority is, or is capable of being made, subject to restraint or restriction
in respect of particular voting shares.
MINORITY RIGHTS
The rights of minority shareholders of Singapore incorporated companies are protected under
Section 216 of the Singapore Companies Act, which gives the Singapore courts a general
power to make any order, upon application by any Shareholder of the Company, as they think
fit to remedy any of the following situations:
our affairs are being conducted or the powers of our Board of Directors are being
exercised in a manner oppressive to, or in disregard of the interests of, one or more of
our Shareholders; or
Singapore courts have wide discretion as to the relief they may grant and that relief is in no
way limited to the relief listed in the Singapore Companies Act. Without prejudice to the
foregoing, Singapore courts may among other things:
provide for the purchase of a minority Shareholders shares by our other Shareholders or
by the Company and, in the case of a purchase of shares by us, a corresponding
reduction of our share capital; or

(unless such resolution otherwise provides) be divided among the Directors in
such proportions and manner as they may agree and in default of agreement
equally, except that in the latter event any Director who shall hold office for part
only of the period in respect of which such fee is payable shall be entitled only
to rank in such division for the proportion of fee related to the period during
which he has held office.

any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class)
may, subject to the provisions of the Act, whether or not the Company is being wound
up, be varied or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of threequarters of the issued shares of the class or with the sanction of a Special Resolution
passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of shares of the class and to
every such Special Resolution the provisions of Section 184 of the Act shall with such

in whose favor this entitlement then operates:
Article 170
The payment by the Directors of any unclaimed dividends or other moneys payable on
or in respect of a share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a
trustee in respect thereof. All dividends unclaimed after being declared may be
invested or otherwise made use of by the Directors for the benefit of the Company and
any dividend unclaimed after a period of six (6) years from the date of declaration of
such dividend may be forfeited and if so shall revert to the Company. If the Depository
returns any such dividend or moneys to the Company, the relevant Depositor shall not
have any right or claim in respect of such dividend or moneys against the Company if
a period of six (6) years has elapsed from the date of the declaration of such dividend
or the date on which such other moneys are first payable. For the avoidance of doubt
no Member shall be entitled to any interest, share of revenue or other benefit arising
from any unclaimed dividends, howsoever and whatsoever.

Emerging Asian economies play an increasingly important role in the global economy as some of them are the
highest growth and demographically largest markets in the world. China2 and Indonesia drove global GDP growth as
part of the top 20 largest economies in the world. As of December 2013, these countries were the second and the 16th
largest economies in the world, respectively. Five years after the Global Financial Crisis and recession of 20083,
countries across the developed world are still struggling to achieve pre-crisis economic growth rates. Large
emerging Asian economies, however, have sustained high growth rates through favorable demographics and
increasingly liberalized macroeconomic environments. China, Indonesia, and India have proven resilient bellwethers
of global growth, while Vietnam and Myanmars recent economic liberalization and opening have spurred foreign
investment and GDP growth. Emerging economies in Asia namely China, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, and
Myanmar have shown consistent growth in the wake of the financial crisis, leading the global recovery4 and
driving global growth.
Indonesia and China have continued to grow as their economies increasingly shift from export to consumptiondriven growth, and develop a stronger and more sustainable domestic macro environment. The International
Monetary Fund (IMF) forecast suggests that Asias Real GDP growth momentum is expected to sustain at its current
level until 2018. The following chart illustrates the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of Nominal GDP
growth rates from 2008 2018F in selected economies.

The selected focus markets China, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, and Myanmar have each registered growth rates
significantly higher than global averages. Looking forward, a number of factors will continue to play important roles
in sustaining their relatively high GDP growth rates. The Chinese government is increasingly focused on stimulating
domestic consumption and increasing its relative share of GDP composition. According to the IMF, both Indonesia
and India are likely to see increased levels of economic growth in 2014, primarily due to the improving global
economy and increased spending in the context of legislative and presidential elections scheduled for mid-2014.
Myanmar and Vietnam have been seeking to attract foreign investment, and policy reforms are expected to continue
to spur growth. The following chart illustrates the CAGR of Real GDP growth rates from 2008 2018F in selected

POPULATION GROWTH
As of 2013, Asia was home to approximately 60.2% of the worlds population, with China and India contributing
approximately 19.6% and 17.5% of the global population, respectively. Given that the population growth in China is
only 0.5% compared to 1.1% in India, India is expected to overtake China by 2028 to become the most populated
country in the world. Indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world and has a similarly high population
growth rate as India. Indonesia has one of the highest fertility rates in the world and the population is forecasted to
grow from 250.0 million people in 2013 to 264.0 million people by 2018 at a CAGR of 1.1%. The following chart
illustrates the population figures in 2008 and 2013, and the forecasted growth in 2018 for the selected focus
countries.

Countries with large population bases, such as China, Indonesia, and India, contributed significantly to global
population growth between 2008 and 2013. Growth in population is expected to lead to increasing demand for
resources and stimulate strong and sustained growth in the consumption of basic needs, including food, clean water,
energy, and healthcare.
1.3
URBANIZATION
As of 2010, approximately 50.0% of Chinas population was living in urban areas5. Estimated to be 669.4 million in
2010, China has the largest urban population in the world. It is even larger than the total population of all other
countries in the world, excluding India. Chinas urban population as a percentage of total population has increased
from 17.4% in 1970 to 49.2% in 2010, and is expected to grow to 68.7% by 2030.
Almost 50.0% of Indonesians live in urban areas, and the country has urbanized at a rapid pace in comparison to
regional neighbors like India, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Thailand. Indonesias urban population as a percentage
of total population increased from 17.1% in 1970 to 49.9% in 2010, and it is expected to grow to 63.1% by 2030.

Urbanization and increases in discretionary income typically lead to growth in consumption of animal proteins and
dairy products. Fast-paced lifestyles and the convenience of fast food restaurants, which increasingly pervade urban
areas around the world, reinforce trends toward rising animal protein consumption in the selected focus countries.
Given the high urbanization and discretionary income growth rates forecasted by the United Nations Department of
Economic and Social Affairs, continued strong growth in the consumer foods and animal proteins sectors is
expected.

An urban area is defined as an area where, (a) population density is more than 5,000 persons per square kilometer; (b) 25.0% or less of the
households work in the agricultural sector; and (c) there are eight or more specific kinds of urban facilities, including: primary schools or
equivalent; junior high schools or equivalent; senior high schools or equivalent; cinemas; hospitals, maternity hospitals/mother-child hospitals;
primary health care centers; roads that can accommodate three and four-wheeled motorized vehicles; telephones; post offices; markets with
buildings; shopping centers; banks; factories; restaurants; public electricity; and part equipment rental services.

The global consumer expenditure on food increased from 12.6% of total consumer expenditure in 2003 to 14.1% in
2013. In dollar terms, the expenditure on food increased from USD 2,837.1 billion in 2003 to USD 5,933.6 billion in
2013, and Frost & Sullivan expects it to reach USD 7,853.1 billion by 2018. The following chart illustrates

In 2013, Chinas consumer expenditure on food was USD 802.6 billion, the highest among the focus countries,
while Vietnamese consumers spent the lowest amount on food items, approximately USD 34.8 billion. The spending
pattern on food is on an upward trend in all the focus countries, however, expenditure on food as a percentage of
total consumer expenditure is highest in emerging and developing economies. In local currency terms, the consumer
expenditure on food in the focus countries is forecast to increase at the following CAGRs between 2013 and 2018:
China (9.0%), Indonesia (8.4%), India (7.6%), and Vietnam (11.0%).
Over the years, the selected countries have gradually opened up their economies, which has led to the growth of
modern retail channels and packaged consumer foods (frozen, processed, etc.). The demand for products that are
free of artificial additives has increased, as consumers gain more knowledge about food safety and food quality
standards. This has provided opportunities for consumer food companies to penetrate into domestic markets, and
food companies with proven food quality and safety standards have been particularly successful.
A strong correlation has been noticed between the selected countries disposable income per capita and their
respective consumer expenditure on food. The selected countries have shown an upward trend in per capita
disposable income, which is translating into gradual growth on the percentage of food expenditure. The following
chart illustrates income per capita trends from 2003 2018F in the selected focus countries.

CONCLUSION
The selected focus markets China, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, and Myanmar accounted for 42.3% of the worlds
total population in 2013 and have each registered growth rates significantly higher than global averages. The outlook
suggests the economic growth momentum of these countries will sustain at its current level until 2018. The growing
population coupled with increasing economic status is likely to lead to stimulate the demand for food and animal
proteins, among other basic needs. The growth of a countrys food industry is highly correlated with the growth in
macroeconomic factors and Frost & Sullivan expects this trend to continue in near future. In addition to the 130
million people expected to be added to the population of these focus countries, factors such as continuous
urbanization, growth of modern retail channels, and increasing penetration of quick service restaurants, are likely to
stimulate the demand for animal proteins and dairy products in the daily diet of the population.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
Animal protein refers to dietary components acquired from red meat (beef, pork, and lamb), fish, poultry, eggs, and
dairy products. These are also called complete proteins, since they contain all the amino acids to build new proteins
in a human body. Other protein sources such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and nuts are called incomplete proteins, as
they lack one or more essential amino acids, which the body cannot make from scratch or create by modifying
another amino acid.

Significant economic growth has led to an increase in living standards and a shift in food consumption patterns
towards a higher proportion of animal protein in China, Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, and India. Demand for
animal protein has been increasing in recent years mainly due to rising disposable income, continuing urbanization,
changing dining habits and dietary preferences in cities. Frost & Sullivan observed that animal protein industry in
selected focus markets have been growing at CAGRs ranging from 3.0% to 15.3% during the period 2008 to 2013.
Frost & Sullivan expects the animal protein industry to sustain its current growth rate till 2018, driven by efficient
distribution systems, cold storage infrastructure, and technology.

From a supply perspective, animal protein industry in selected focus markets is still fragmented with a large number
of small-scale farms and individual farmers. Large-scale farms stand out in terms of cost advantages due to
economies of scale, strong bargaining power with downstream players and supportive policies. As the demand for
animal protein continues to gain momentum, large-scale farms are expected to be at the front to reap the benefits, as
large-scale and integrated companies are capable of better managed facilities and induction of faster-growing breeds.
The growing nature of this industry also leaves the field open for new players and improved technology.

Supply shortfall in the dairy industry is expected to widen in China and Indonesia, creating opportunities for
upstream dairy farms. In China, upstream raw milk production is dominated by small-scale players. Exponential
growth of demand for raw milk, combined with lack of accountable upstream dairy producers exposed the industry
to safety and quality assurance risks, exemplified by the 2008 melamine scandal. This incident has led to concerns in
other Asian countries with similar industry structure, such as Indonesia. In the light of such incident, Frost &
Sullivan expects that large and integrated dairy companies are especially poised to gain competitive advantage. Raw
milk is delivered directly from integrated dairy farms to processors without procurement agents in the middle, which
has effectively prevented the adulteration of milk. Frost & Sullivan believes that the on-going industry consolidation
will benefit the industry in future.

In 2013, the Indonesian consumer food industry was valued at USD 38.0 billion. The processed and packaged food
segment was the largest segment of the industry accounting for 68.4% market share. Ambient temperature food and
frozen consumer food, which are sub-segments of packaged and processed food segment, were valued at USD 534.6
million and USD 639.1 million, respectively.

The consumer food industry in Indonesia is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2013 to 2017. Ambient
temperature food segment is expected to have an increased demand due to increasing recognition of its convenience,
longer shelf life and easier storage. Frozen consumer food segments future growth is expected to be driven by
growing demand from low-to-middle income class consumers. This is likely to result in an increasing presence of
affordable economy brands within the frozen processed food category. Frost and Sullivan estimates that ambient
temperature and frozen consumer foods are likely to grow at a CAGR of 13.4% from 2013 to 2017 a higher
growth rate than overall consumer food industry.

Chinas dairy industry has experienced rapid growth since the 1990s due to several macro factors that include strong
economic growth, increases in per capita disposable income, and an increase in the urbanization rate. Rising health
awareness and increases in purchasing power of residents has driven the retail sales of liquid milk to reach USD
17.5 billion in China in 2013, reflecting an increase of over three times since 2003. The rapid growth in demand for
dairy products has led to an increase in demand for raw milk in China. The demand for raw milk increased to 49.0
million tonnes in 2013 from 38.7 million tonnes in 2008, representing a CAGR of 4.8%. From the supply side, the
government issued several favorable policies and subsidies that promote the consolidation of dairy farms to improve
overall operational efficiency. The supply of raw milk reached 37.4 million tonnes in 2012, increased from 35.6
million tonnes in 2008, representing a CAGR of 1.2%. In 2013, the supply of raw milk declined to 35.3 million
tonnes due to a decrease in the number of dairy cows.
Since 2008, there has been a shortage in raw milk supply in China, that has resulted in the raw milk price (in RMB
terms) to increase at a CAGR of 8.8% from 2008 to 2013. Chinas per capita dairy consumption was 28.9 kg (in
milk equivalent) in 2013, which is significantly lower than that of developed countries and regions, such as Japan
(58.0 kg in milk equivalent), the US (96.2 kg in milk equivalent) and EU (84.6 kg in milk equivalent). Countries
having similar levels of lactose tolerance, such as Japan and Korea, have higher levels of milk consumption than
China. As the existing shortage in raw milk supply is expected to continue through 2018, upstream dairy producers
with reliable milk quality are expected to benefit greatly from current market trends of increasing consumption and
price of dairy products.
Roadmap of the Dairy Industry in China
Chinas dairy industry has historically been highly fragmented. Before 1990, the majority of dairy producers were
individual household farms raising less than 10 dairy cows. With new economic opportunities resulting from the
reform and opening policies in the early 1990s, commercial and scaled dairy operations grew to become an
increasingly important part of the Chinese dairy industry. In the downstream sector, two large dairy players emerged
during this period, namely Yili (established in 1993) and Mengniu (established in 1999).
Despite commercialization of the dairy industry in China in the 1990s and 2000s, small-scale players and
cooperatives continued to dominate upstream raw milk production. While the dairy market grew throughout this
period, the lack of accountable upstream dairy producers exposed the industry to safety and quality assurance risks
that ultimately led to the 2008 melamine scandal. Downstream processors and distributors inability to monitor
quality at collection stations and trace the source of branded products enabled the upstream producers to sell tainted
raw milk to the downstream players.
Following the melamine-tainted milk scandal in 2008, a few dairy industry players have begun to accelerate
establishing self-owned raw milk production facilities to ensure the safety and quality of raw milk. Raw milk is
delivered directly from dairy farms to processors without procurement agents in the middle, which has effectively
prevented the adulteration of milk. The large and integrated dairy companies are poised to gain competitive
advantage by providing quality dairy products with verifiable raw milk supplies.

3.1.2
Increase in Urbanization Rate: Per capita consumption of dairy products is significantly higher in urban China
than in rural China due to the higher disposable income, increased health awareness and better access to various
dairy products. Approximately 20.0 million people migrate from rural to urban areas every year. This has
created a rising demand for dairy products as new urban residents tend to adopt urban dietary habits. Chinas
urban population increased from 631.0 million in 2008 to 744.5 million in 2013, reflecting a CAGR of 3.4%.
During the same period, the urbanization rate in China increased by 6.7 percentage points, from 47.0% to
53.7%.
Increase in Purchasing Power of Consumers: Chinas urban residents saw an increase of annual disposable
income per capita from USD 2,271.2 in 2008 to USD 4,354.9 in 2013, reflecting a CAGR of 13.9%. The
significant increase in Chinese citizens purchasing power has lifted the countrys demand for quality food
products with higher nutritional value, which include dairy products. Frost & Sullivan expects that the growing
disposable income will continue to drive market demand for dairy products.
Increasing Health Awareness: In recent years, Chinese citizens have increasingly considered dairy products as
an important part of their daily diet. This trend is expected to boost the growth of dairy products consumption in
the country.
Expanding Distribution Network: The distribution network of dairy products expands from grocery stores and
milk stations to supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores, or even online shops. The variety and
geographic coverage of distribution channels have increased consumers accessibility to dairy products.

Lack of raw milk supply has led to a significant increase in milk prices. Factors such as increasing cost of feed and
labor have also pushed up the price of raw milk. Raw milk price in China grew from USD 0.3 (RMB 2.3) per kg in
2008 to USD 0.6 (RMB 3.6) per kg in 2013, at a CAGR of 8.8% (in RMB terms). Dairy companies with their own
farms are at an advantage in terms of cost and quality controls, while those relying on outsourcing raw milk have
less bargaining power with upstream suppliers. The chart below shows the average price of raw milk in China from

The liquid milk market includes both Ultra-High-Temperature-treated (UHT) milk and fresh milk (also known as
pasteurized milk). Chinas liquid milk market has been increasing steadily in recent years. Chinese liquid milk
market size, in terms of retail sales value, increased from USD 5.2 billion in 2003 to USD 16.2 billion in 2012,
registering a CAGR of 10.9%. As consumers are attracted to nutritional and secure milk products, Frost & Sullivan
expects that high-end, high nutritional liquid milk products from reliable sources will witness a rapid growth in
coming years. Frost & Sullivan forecasts the retail sales of liquid milk to reach USD 28.5 billion by 2018. The chart

In line with the China National Dairy Development Plan (20092013), China has identified five advantageous dairy
farming areas with abundant natural grassland, feed resources, and water supply, namely Northeastern Region,
Central Northern Region, Northwestern Region, Southern Region and the outskirt areas of certain major cities.
Shandong province, located in the northeast China, is suitable for dairy farming due to its cool climate and
geographic proximity to consumer markets in Beijing and Shanghai and the major coastal ports for inexpensive feed
transit costs.
Chinas dairy cow livestock increased steadily from 12.3 million heads in 2008 to 14.5 million heads in 2012, at a
CAGR of 4.1%. The dairy cattle livestock population experienced a slight decline in 2013 by 3.4% to 14.0 million
heads, due to several reasons: 1) increasing feed and labor costs lowered the marginal return of dairy farming
causing some small-scale farmers to exit the market; 2) increased beef prices in 2013 led some dairy farmers to
slaughter milk cows; 3) the ineffective control of epidemic diseases in dairy cows further reduced the cattle
livestock, leading to a reduction of raw milk production.
As a result of government policies to promote larger scale dairy farming in response to the melamine scandal, the
industry has consolidated, resulting in an increased number of large-scale dairy farms. In terms of herd size, the
proportion of large-scale dairy farms grew rapidly in China. In 2008, large-scale dairy farms were home to only
7.6% of total dairy cows in China, but the proportion increased to 15.1% in 2013.

Large-scale dairy farms benefit from better access to capital, advanced technology integrated in the milking and cow
management process, and experienced management teams with standardized management procedures. This has
resulted in increased milk yield and higher quality raw milk in terms of protein and bacteria content. Large-scale
dairy farms also tend to improve milk yield and quality by enhancing farm design and layout, maintaining hygienic
and modern housing and milking facilities and standardizing operational procedures. Frost & Sullivan expects the
consolidation of dairy farms to improve the overall average yield of cows and create a more efficient dairy industry.
Cost Fluctuations
Feed and breeds of dairy cows are two primary factors that determine profit margins for upstream dairy farming
business. Feeds contribute to approximately 60.0% to 70.0% of the total cost of raising dairy cows. In general, feed
for dairy cows can be classified into forages, concentrated feeds, and supplementary feeds. Forages, such as alfalfa,
corn silage, and sheep grass, have higher fiber content and account for approximately 60.0% of a dairy cows daily
feed consumption. In China, alfalfa is widely used in dairy farms for nearly all kinds of dairy cows, and as a result,
price fluctuations of alfalfa have a significant influence on raw milk production costs. The figure below shows price
flucations of feed (domestic alfalfa, imported alfalfa, and corn and soy bean meal).

Concentrated feeds are low-fiber feeds and primarily consist of corn, soybean, and cotton meal, and account for
nearly 40.0% of a dairy cows daily feed consumption. Supplementary feeds, which include mineral and vitaminenriched feeds, can also be added to forage and concentrated feeds to improve nutritional quality.
The main breeds of dairy cows in China include Holstein, Jersey, Dairy Simmental, Brown cattle and Sanhe cattle.

3.1.5
Holstein is the most common breed of dairy cows in China, and the breed is known for higher milk yields
compared to other breeds. In China, Holsteins comprised about 80.0% of the total dairy cow breeds in
2012.
Jersey is known for the high protein content of its raw milk, and they are primarily used for the production
of cheese and premium dairy products. In China, Jerseys accounted for a very small proportion of the total
dairy cow breeds. In 2012, there were approximately 10,000 Jersey cows in China mainly distributed across
Southern regions.
Other minority dairy cow breeds also have unique characteristics. The Dairy Simmentals provides the
second highest milk yield following Holstein. Brown cattle are known to be more resistant to unfavorable
or extreme weather conditions, and mainly concentrated in Xinjiang Province. Sanhe cattle are crossbred in
China and cultured mainly in Inner Mongolia.
Competitive Landscape
The raw milk production is related to the number of dairy cows and the average milk yield per cow. In terms of raw
milk production, Modern Dairy was the largest dairy farming company with 584,100 tonnes of raw milk production
in 2012. It was followed by Huishan Group, which produced 328,000 tonnes raw milk. Other major dairy farming
companies include Lvhe-Dairy, Shengmu High-tech, and Shanghai Dairy Group, with raw milk production of
271,000 tonnes, 188,000 tonnes and 183,000 tonnes, respectively in 2012.
Most large-scale dairy farming companies of over 1,000 dairy cows increasing raw milk production by increasing
herd size and improving average milk yield per cow. According to the Dairy Association of China, the average milk
yields per cow reached 5.5 tonnes / annum in 2012. In terms of average milk yield per cow, Lvhe-Dairy, Austasia
China Farms (Japfa) and Jialihe Dairy Farm ranked top three in China in 2012, with average yield of 11.0
tonnes/annum, 10.5 tonnes/annum and 10.5 tonnes/annum, respectively. The table below provides an overview of

Note: For large-scale farms, Annual Milk Yield per Milkable Cow is calculated using two methodologies on national level.
Methodology 1: Add up the observed daily milk yield of adult cows (milkable cows only or milkable cows and cows on dry
period); Methodology 2: Annualize monthly data of milk production and divide by adult cows (milkable cows only or milkable
cows and cows on dry period). Huishan Dairy, Shengmu High-Tech Group adopted methodology 1, whereas YuanShengTai
Dairy adopted methodology 2. Data from both methodologies are directly comparable.

In Indonesia, per capita dairy consumption has grown at a CAGR of 7.0% from 11.9 kg in 2010 to 14.6 kg in 2013.
Despite the rapid growth, Indonesias per capita dairy consumption is among the lowest in the ASEAN region. In
2012, per capita dairy consumption was estimated to be 13.5 kg in Indonesia, far below 22.1 kg in the Philippines,
50.9 kg in Malaysia and 33.7 kg in Thailand. As Indonesian consumer demand for dairy products has expanded
rapidly over the past decade, it has outpaced growth in dairy supply and caused a significant demand / supply gap
and, consequently, created a market opportunity for scaled upstream dairy producers. The number of dairy cows in
Indonesia grew from 374,000 in 2003 to 488,000 in 2010, registering a CAGR of 3.9%. The total number of dairy
cows declined in 2011 to 330,000 as the lack of domestic beef supply resulted in large-scale slaughtering of dairy
cows to meet the markets demand for beef. However, fuelled by the strong appetite for dairy products, the number
of dairy cows increased to 399,000 in 2013; however, the raw milk supply shortage in Indonesia remains severe as
growth in demand for dairy products continues unabated.
Currently, Indonesia depends heavily on imports, mainly from Australia and New Zealand, to meet its domestic
demand for dairy products. In 2013, approximately 80.0% of the demand for dairy products was fulfilled by imports.
Expansion of domestic milk production has become one of the countrys national objectives for import substitution.
In order to boost the domestic growth of dairy production, the Indonesian government has announced policy
initiatives to ensure a domestically-produced supply that meets at least 50.0% of national demand by 2020. Fuelled
by favorable government policies and increased demand, Indonesias dairy industry is set to grow in coming years.
Indonesias dairy industry is dominated by individual farms with an average of five dairy cows each. However,
commercial dairy companies are increasingly playing a significant role in the development of the dairy industry. In
2008, there were only 29 large-scale dairy companies in Indonesia. This has grown to 50 in 2013, representing a
CAGR of 11.5%. The number of dairy cows owned by large scale farms has been increasing faster than the smallscale farms. Despite potential positive outlook in Indonesian upstream dairy production, certain factors pose
challenges to upstream dairy producers. Scarcity of forage and land with suitable elevation for dairy cattle farming,
high prices for cattle feed, low dairy cow productivity, low milk quality, poor farm and herd management facilities,
and lack of milking and processing technology have impacted the development of the dairy industry in Indonesia.
Large-scale and modern commercial farms are best equipped to ameliorate the impact of these challenges and
benefit from this growing market through continued expansion of their operations to cater to the unmet demand for
dairy products. Frost & Sullivan expects the growth of more efficient large-scale dairy companies in Indonesia to
reverse the trend of declining overall dairy production.

Market Size
The market size of liquid milk products (UHT and fresh milk) in Indonesia was estimated to be 463,190 tonnes in
2013, having grown at a CAGR of 8.0% from 367,189 tonnes in 2010. Fresh milk accounted for a smaller market
share in the liquid milk segment, with just 19.7% market share in 2013. The following figure illustrates the market

Grass Growing and Feeds Processing: It is observed that Indonesia has faced high feed prices and forage
shortages. Feeds for dairy cattle include forage, concentrated feeds, and supplementary feeds. The dairy cow
feed market is not commercialized as most of the farmers provide their dairy cows with self-mixed feed.
Dairy Farming: Dairy farming involves the breeding of dairy cows, dairy farm management, and milking.
Dairy production is dominated by small household farms commonly known as Koperasi Unit Desa (village cooperatives), which are overseen by the Government to ensure quality standards. The Government does this by
imparting knowledge, advice, setting up facilities, as well as offering financial incentives. Large dairy farms are
considered more efficient in dairy farming given their economies of scale.
Raw Milk Collection: Village co-operatives also serve as collection points for raw milk. Agents normally
purchase raw milk and then sell it to commercial dairy firms for further processing. This poses potential
challenges to milk quality as some chemical additives could be added to low-quality milk to artificially lift
protein level. Large integrated commercial dairy firms, such as Greenfields (Japfa), typically have their own
source of raw milk and access to distribution channels. This has ensured an end-to-end control over raw milk
quality to satisfy the markets demand for safe dairy products.
Dairy Products Production and Sales: Raw milk is processed into various dairy products, such as liquid milk,
sweetened canned milk, powder milk and so on. Processed dairy products are distributed to various retailers and
consumers. Imported dairy products are also introduced at this stage and compete directly with local players.
3.2.4
Dairy cows prefer cool and dry weather over warm and humid climate. Dairy farming in Indonesia is largely
concentrated in Java, with approximately 99.0% of Indonesias dairy cows located in Java (more than 50.0% in East
Java). This is mainly because of the favorable weather condition prevailing in Java. Furthermore, Java has a dense
population and relatively higher consumption level of dairy products that supports geographically proximate dairy
operations.
Dairy farming in Indonesia is dominated by individual farmers who own around 5 dairy cows each. For example, in
East Java, more than 90.0% of cows are owned by individual farmers. According to the Dairy Farming Association
in Indonesia, in 2013, there were approximately 399,000 dairy cows raised in almost 80,000 dairy farms, most of
which were small-scale farms. In 2013, the Unity of Indonesia Milk Co-operation (GKSI) estimated that there were
only 50 large-scale dairy farms in Indonesia, raising approximately 10.0% of the total dairy cow population. The
chart below illustrates the growth of large-scale farms in Indonesia.

farms. Thus, large-scale dairy operations in Indonesia are generally more efficient and productive than small-scale
farms.

Domestic demand for dairy products has been on a rise. Per capita consumption of dairy products increased to 14.6
kg in 2013 from 12.0 kg in 2010, registering a CAGR of 6.9%. The increasing demand for dairy products translated
into an increase in the demand for raw milk. However, domestic supply of raw milk cannot meet domestic demand.
In 2013, only about 20.0% of demand for dairy products was satisfied by domestic supply. The majority of dairy
products were supplied by Indonesian companies which process raw milk powder imported from overseas. A small
proportion of dairy imports consisted of finished dairy products directly imported into the country.
Indonesias total raw milk production volume was estimated at approximately 1.0 million tonnes in 2010. It
decreased in 2011 and 2012 due to the loss of dairy cows to beef demand. Although raw milk production volume
subsequently recovered to 839,243 tonnes in 2013, it is still below the 2010 level and is expected reach 1.0 million
tonne only by 2016.

The quality of raw milk is a key determinant of the quality of dairy products. Fat content, protein content, bacterial
limits, and somatic cell count are the four major industry-wide categories to determine raw milk quality. In
Indonesia, the average quality of raw milk suffers because of poor milking practices and hygiene, poor management
and insufficient cold chain logistics. Small-scale farms lack their own processing facilities and a coordinated supply
chain, therefore only 12% of locally-produced milk meets minimum industry standards. Due to the low-quality, milk
produced from individual farmers is generally used as a supplementary source in the production process. Large-scale
farms with more efficient farm management and cold chain logistics produce higher quality raw milk. The industry
offers growth opportunities for integrated and large-scale dairy farms that have the capability of providing good
quality raw milk.
Towards the end of 2011, the Government initiated a new milk quality standard Indonesian National Standards
(SNI) that stipulates the quality parameters for raw milk. The quality specification of milk varies depending on the
size of the milk processor. The table below presents the minimum standards for a medium-sized dairy farm in
comparison to other national standards:

The demand for high-quality, safe raw milk has increased due to the negative impact of the melamine scandals in
China. Under such circumstances, the key to success for domestic milk producers is in the control and traceability of
upstream supply to the processing facilities. Raw milk that meets the EU and US standards is considered premium
raw milk in Indonesia.
3.2.6
Total consumption of dairy products has grown from around 2.9 million tonnes in 2010 to approximately 3.6 million
tonnes in 2013, registering a CAGR of 8.2%. Domestic consumption of dairy products has been largely met through
imports, with only about 20% of demand fulfilled by domestic production in 2013. The demand-supply gap for dairy
products widened from 2.0 million tonnes in 2010 to 3.2 million tonnes in 2013. Frost & Sullivan forecasts the gap
to continue to expand to 4.2 million tonnes by 2018, provided there is no drastic increase in the current supply of
dairy products. The expected persistence in insufficient domestic supply presents an opportunity for large-scale
farms to expand within Indonesia, and the Government encourages investment in the sector through creating a
favorable policy environment for dairy growth. The chart below illustrates the total consumption of dairy products
and domestic production from 2010.

Drinking Milk Products accounted for 44.6% of dairy production volume in 2013, and is the major driver for the
growth of the dairy industry. It includes fresh milk (also known as pasteurized milk), UHT milk (also known as
long-life milk), flavored milk drinks, and powder milk. The segments contribution to the industry size increased
from 39.7% in 2008 to 44.6% in 2013 and Frost & Sullivan expects it to reach 48.5% by 2018. Given the popularity
and increasing demand, the future growth of the segment is expected to outpace other segments within the dairy
industry. In 2013, Frisian Flag, Dancow, and Indomilk were top brands within this segment, controlling nearly half
of the market.
Fresh milk, a sub-segment of Drinking Milk Products, is gaining popularity in Indonesia due to increasing
knowledge and awareness of its health benefits. Improving purchasing power of Indonesians has also contributed to
the growing popularity of fresh milk in Indonesia. Greenfields, Indomilk, and Diamond are the leading brands
within this segment. Frost & Sullivan expects that consumers preference for fresh food products will support liquid
milk growth.
Distribution
Indonesias dairy retail market is dominated by traditional grocery stores with modern retail channels expanding
rapidly. From 2003 to 2008, the number of traditional stores expanded by only 9.2% compared to hypermarkets at
188.4%, mini markets at 162.7% and supermarkets at 75.3%. This trend is expected to continue with the growth of
Indonesias middle to upper-class population, increasing urbanization and improving infrastructure. Hypermarkets,
mini markets, and supermarkets are better equipped with refrigeration equipment that increases the shelf life of fresh
milk. The rapid expansion of modern distribution channels is expected to assist the sales activities for fresh milk.

Competitive Landscape
In 2013, Greenfields was the leading market player in the fresh milk segment with a market share of 24.5% in terms
of production volume and 38.4% in terms of production value. Greenfields higher market share in terms of
production value is attributed to its higher retail price resulting from its premium quality.

Unlike Indomilk that produces a variety of products such as UHT drinks, condensed milk and powder milk,
Greenfields specializes in fresh milk segment with high sanitary standards and quality. Hence, Frost & Sullivan
expects Greenfields to be at the forefront to experience the benefits of increasing demand for fresh milk in the
future.

Poultry is the main source of animal protein in Indonesia, accounting for approximately 61.1% of total meat
consumption in 2013. The religious restrictions on consuming pork, the comparatively high retail price of beef and
the need for Halal certification (foods permitted under Islamic dietary guidelines) has made poultry a preferred
animal protein among Indonesians. The cost of rearing chickens is comparatively low, leading to the cheaper price
of chicken meat. The consumption of chicken has increased in line with economic growth and per capita income
growth. Wealthy consumers and the emerging middle class are likely to consume more chicken meat. In 2013,
broiler and native chickens accounted for over 98.0% of total poultry consumed.
Beef is an expensive source of animal protein in Indonesia, and in 2013, beef accounted for 17.4% of total meat
consumption. Historically, consumption of beef was restricted to festive seasons and times of celebration, however,
it has been on an increasing trend, and Frost & Sullivan expects it to increase in line with the growing disposable
income of Indonesians. Pork is a comparatively cheaper source of animal protein in Indonesia and is popular among
the non-Muslim population.
Poultry has been the leading source of animal proteins in Indonesia. Frost & Sullivan estimates that the consumption
of both chicken and beef will increase in the future and that their respective proportions of total meat consumption
will remain the same. The consumption breakdown of major animal protein products is shown in the following

Market Size
Poultry Segment
The market size of the poultry industry in Indonesia, measured by its sales value, increased from IDR 45.3 trillion in
2008 to IDR 98.6 trillion in 2013, registering a CAGR of 16.8%. The sales volume of broiler chicken meat increased
from IDR 25.2 trillion in 2008 to IDR 63.0 trillion in 2013, representing a CAGR of 20.1%. The sales volume of
table eggs increased from IDR 20.1 trillion in 2008 to IDR 35.6 trillion in 2013, at a CAGR of 12.1%. The growth in
market size has been primarily driven by economic growth and changes in dietary preferences toward food products
with higher nutritional value. Frost & Sullivan forecasts the poultry market size to increase to IDR 234.3 trillion by
2018, at a CAGR of 18.9% from its current levels of IDR 98.6 trillion in 2013.

Beef Segment
The total beef market size in Indonesia, measured by its sales value, increased significantly from IDR 19.6 trillion in
2008 to IDR 56.2 trillion in 2013, registering a CAGR of 23.5%. The total beef market size measured by its sales
volume increased from 405.1 million kg in 2008 to 630.1 million kg in 2013, reflecting a CAGR of 9.2%. The
growth in market size has been primarily driven by economic growth and changes in dietary preferences leading to
increased consumption of premium beef.
Approximately 6.0% to 10.0% of the total beef consumption is catered by imported frozen beef. Despite the
government efforts to be self-sufficient in the beef industry, the domestic beef supply is unable to cater to the
existing demand for beef. In addition, the short supply and import restrictions have led to consistent increases in
beef prices. The government has set a reference price of IDR 76,000 per kg in 2013; the licenses to import frozen
beef and live beef cattle will be issued every time the price of domestic beef exceeds the reference price by 15.0%
and the licenses will be revoked when the domestic price falls 5.0% below the reference price.
The import volume is estimated to triple in near future, as the government is likely to lift the restrictions on import
quota, due to insufficient domestic production to cater to the increasing demand. This price normalization exercise
by the Government is likely to help maintain stable beef prices in the industry and provide more opportunities for
breeding more local cattle, as well as creating a market space for imported frozen beef and live cattle. Frost &
Sullivan estimates the market size to increase at a CAGR of 10.5% to reach IDR 92.8 trillion in 2018 from its
current level of IDR 56.2 trillion in 2013. The sales volume is forecast to increase at a CAGR of 11.2% to reach
1,070.8 million kg in 2018, from its current level of 630.1 million kg in 2013. The chart below shows the beef
market size in Indonesia from 2008 to 2018F.

Breeding

Sales &
Distribution
The value chain of the poultry segment consists of the following five stages:
x
Breeding starts off with importing the grandparent stock from mainly Europe or the US. The hatching eggs are
incubated and hatched in the parent stock farm. Day-old chicks (DOCs) are delivered to the broiler or layer
farms.
Producing involves growing DOCs for meat or egg production. For meat production, the chickens are grown
until they reach a carcass weight of 1.0 kg to 2.0 kg (average of 1.4 kg), which generally requires 30 days. For
egg production,the chickens are reared in the layer farm for approximately 18 weeks and then undergo a laying
phase of up to 18 months. During this time, the chickens may lay up to 24 kg of eggs (approximately 400 eggs).
In 2013, broilers represented 85.0% of the total meat production, with the rest made up of native chickens.
Nearly 70.0% of the broilers are grown by contract farms, 10.0% by large corporations (usually called
integrators) and the rest are by independent farms. Contract farms or intiplasma system are widely used in
Indonesia where contractors (who may or may not be independent of the integrator) pay for the DOCs, feed and
medicines, and give farmers a growers fee with a bonus for superior performance.
Trading involves agents who distribute the finished products, either full-grown chickens or eggs, to the
slaughtering houses or retail outlets. It is observed that 75.0% to 80.0% of the broilers sold are through wet
Independent Market Research on Selected Food Markets in Indonesia, China, India, Vietnam, and Myanmar
)
28
markets, while the rest are traded to slaughtering houses. Independent farmers, who are not as integrated,
typically follow the long value chain (with multiple middle-men) to sell their products. The culled chicks (male
birds from the layer strains which cannot lay eggs nor are suitable for meat production are killed upon hatching)
enter the value chain at this stage.
x
Slaughtering is still at a developmental stage in Indonesia. According to the Poultry Slaughtering House
Association, Indonesia had approximately 275 slaughtering houses as of 2013. Only 20.0% to 25.0% of the
broilers are sent to slaughtering houses, which are usually integrated and owned by the farmers. Often, these
commercial slaughtering houses process the chickens into shelf-stable or frozen products, aside from the normal
whole or cut-up/deboned chickens.
Sales & Distribution: Approximately 75.0% to 80.0% of chickens traded by agents bypass the slaughtering
stage and reach wet market retailers, who will do the slaughtering themselves. The slaughtering houses cater to
modern retailers (supermarkets, hotels, and restaurants). A majority of the table eggs are sold through the
traditional retail system.
Figure 4.6 Value Chain of Beef Segment, Indonesia
Fattening
Slaughtering
Fattening: The commercial beef value chain starts with fattening, as Indonesia lacks the appropriate climate for
breeding beef cattle. Australia is the largest supplier of beef cattle to Indonesia, and the most common breed of beef
cattle is the Australian BX breed. The average import size ranges from 280 kg to 350 kg per head. The cattle are
fattened for 90 to 100 days, and during the process, gain approximately 1.5 kg per day to reach a final weight of 430
kg to 500 kg per head by the end of the fattening cycle. Prior to fattening, the imported cattle weigh more compared
to local cattle. However, as local cattle breeds are less expensive than the imported breeds, many feedlot operators
purchase the domestic bred cattle. The preferred local breeds are Onggol, Simmental, and Limousin.
Slaughtering: There are public and private slaughter facilities operating in Indonesia. The preferred slaughter
weight during peak season is 400 kg to 450 kg per head, whereas it is only 300 kg to 350 kg during the low period.
However, only one-third of the gross weight of the cattle is red meat, while the remaining two-thirds comprises offal
(internal organs) and hide (skin). It is estimated that 50.0% of the red meat goes into producing meatballs, which are
popular among Indonesians, especially among low-income consumers who can afford meatballs over the expensive
red meat.
Sales and distribution: A significant portion of beef meat produced (approximately 80.0%) is distributed through
wet markets, while the remaining is supplied to modern retailers (supermarkets, hotels and restaurants). Distribution
is dominated by traders who receive cattle from feedlots (approximately 30 to 40 heads per day), slaughter them in
their partnering slaughter-houses, and deliver to wet market butchers on credit.
Input Costs for Poultry and Beef Production
In 2013, feed cost for poultry accounted for approximately 70.0% of the total input cost for chicken meat
production, followed by the cost of DOCs at 20.0% of total cost. The other associated costs were very minimal in
the case of poultry, due to the simple poultry rearing techniques and the inexpensive infrastructure and equipment
required in the process.
In 2013, feed cost for beef cattle accounted for approximately 54.0% of the total input cost for beef meat production,
followed by labor cost at 22.0% of total cost. The labor cost associated with rearing cows is higher than in rearing
chickens. The industry norm is one employee in the yard for every 100 head of cattle. Other costs for rearing beef
cattle include its housing requirements and farming machinery.

Demand Dynamics
Indonesias per capita consumption of meat products is low compared to neighboring countries. For example,
Malaysia, with a predominately Muslim population similar to that of Indonesia, consumed 47.7 kg per capita of
poultry in 2012 and 48.2 kg in 2013, while Indonesian per capita poultry consumption was less than 9 kg in 2013.
This suggests opportunities for further growth in consumption of meat.
Poultry consumption per capita in Indonesia has increased from 4.6 kg in 2008 to 8.9 kg in 2013. Frost & Sullivan
expects per capita poultry consumption to increase to 16.0 kg by 2018. Beef consumption per capita in Indonesia has
increased from 1.7 kg in 2008 to 2.5 kg in 2013. Frost & Sullivan expects per capita beef consumption to increase to
4.0 kg by 2018.

2018. Frost & Sullivan expects the demand for protein products to grow with an increase in disposable income and
purchasing power of consumers in Indonesia, especially the emerging middle-income class.
Expanding Urban Population and Industrialization: Urbanization has been a key demand driver for the animal
protein industry, as the per capita consumption of protein products is significantly higher in urban areas than rural
areas. According to United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Indonesias urbanization rate is
forecast to increase from 49.9% in 2010 to 57.2% in 2020 and 63.1% in 2030. The western parts of Indonesia (Java
and Sumatra) consume more poultry and beef, whereas in the eastern parts of Indonesia (Sulawesi and Kalimantan),
fish is the main source of animal proteins. As an increasing number of people migrate from west to east, they are
likely to spread their consumption habits to the eastern provinces, which in turn, is expected to increase overall
animal protein consumption.
Modernization of Sales and Distribution Channels: Traditionally, Indonesians bought meat products from wet
markets. In recent years, they have increasingly been purchasing processed meat from modern retail formats,
including supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores. The increasing penetration of modern retail formats
is expected to significantly enhance accessibility to protein products for the general population, especially in rural
areas. Furthermore, investments in logistics, infrastructure, and freezing equipment at retail outlets, have helped to
facilitate continued improvements in the distribution of animal protein products.
Rising Health Concerns: Indonesians are becoming increasingly health conscious and including more animal
proteins in their daily diet. The incidence of mad cow disease, bird flu (H5N1 in 2008) and swine flu (H1N1 in
2009) has made the consumers stay cautious about what they eat. The consumers are now better educated about food
safety and food quality standards of animal protein products and are turning towards more hygienic sources like
branded animal proteins. With the changing dietary habits and increasing health awareness of Indonesians, the
demand and consumption of protein products have increased and Frost & Sullivan expects this trend to drive future
growth of the industry.
4.1.5
Supply Dynamics
Indonesia has achieved its goal of self-sufficiency in the poultry segment. The country imports and exports
negligible quantities of chicken meat, and hence it can be concluded that domestic supply caters to the entire
demand. Though poultry production is spread throughout Indonesia, a majority of production is concentrated in Java
and meets 73.0%, 54.0%, and 44.0% of demand for broilers, layers, and native chicken respectively. The production
of chicken and table eggs are spread all over East, West, and Central Java. Broiler production is concentrated in
West Java due to good access to suppliers and customers and cool climate suitable for poultry rearing. East Java is
the preferred location for rearing layer chicken due to the availability of corn stocks.
In 2011, Indonesia announced its goal of domestic self-sufficiency in the beef segment and its intention to limit
imports to less than 10% of the total beef consumption by 2014. The local production of beef meat is still behind the
total consumption. Thus, 17.0% to 25.0% of consumption is fulfilled through imported frozen beef or live beef
cattle. The import of beef meat and live beef cattle was restricted in 2011; as a result, the average retail price of beef
meat increased from IDR 71,200 per kg in 2011 to IDR 85,500 per kg in 2012, and it increased further to IDR
94,200 per kg in 2013.
As the beef demand peaked in August 2013 during Ramadan festival, many farmers liquidated their herds to take
advantage of the price increase. The industry grew strongly during this period; however the supply was unable to
meet the demand for beef meat. Therefore, the government eased the import restrictions in late 2013 and plans to do
so every time the domestic beef price exceeds the governments reference price of IDR 76,000 per kg by 15.0%.
Beef production is concentrated in Java which accounted for 58.0% of total production in 2013, followed by
Sumatra which accounted for 21.0%. Frost & Sullivan expects that Javas share of total meat production in
Indonesia will fall as meat production expands into locations outside of the island; however, beef production in Java
will continue to grow in absolute terms.

base with 20 supply chain partners approved by Australias DAFF (Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and
Forestry). The company also processes its cattle manure into fertilizer for its plantation.
Animal Feed Segment
The Indonesian animal feed sector is structured as an oligopoly that is controlled by a small number of companies.
In 2013, PT Japfa Comfeed Indonesia, PT Charoen Pokphand Indonesia, PT Cheil Jedang Indonesia, PT Malindo
Feedmill, and PT Sierad Produce accounted for a cumulative market share of approximately 66.0%. Price volatility
and other various challenges of securing raw materials on international commodities markets preclude small-scale
players from the Indonesian feed market; these market barriers have left the industry with a small number of largescale international and integrated animal feed players.

In Vietnam, key sources of animal protein are pork, poultry, and beef. In 2011, pork accounted for approximately
74.0% of total livestock production, followed by poultry at 17.0%. Vietnamese consumers have historically selected
pork over other protein products due to its high protein content, high fat content, and most importantly, its relative
affordability to other protein varieties. It is estimated that chicken contributes approximately 73.0% 74.0% of the
total poultry flock in Vietnam and can be taken as a good representation of overall poultry industry.

Vietnams animal protein industry is highly fragmented, and small-scale players dominate upstream production. The
industry started developing commercially in the early 1990s when the country began to open its economy to foreign
investors. The following international companies have established operations in Vietnams animal protein industry:

Recent trends suggest that small-scale backyard farms have gradually been replaced by commercial farms with
higher standards of hygiene, productivity, and efficiency. Commercial farms have increased over smallholders in
terms of both production volume and animal population. In 2008, commercial farms raised about 15.0% of pigs and
16.0% of the poultry flock; this figure grew to 25.0% and 20.0%, respectively, in 2010.
4.2.2
Market Size
The production of chicken and pork has been increasing steadily. Domestic chicken production was estimated at
755,000 tonnes in 2013, nearly doubling the 417,000 tonnes achieved in 2008, registering a CAGR of 12.6%. Pork
production also grew from 1.9 million tonnes in 2008 to 2.2 million tonnes in 2013, at a CAGR of 3.0%. The
domestic supply of chicken and pork is sufficient to meet domestic demand. Imports of chicken and pork were only
about 30,000 tonnes and 10,000 tonnes, respectively, in 2013. Frost & Sullivan estimates the market size of chicken
and pork to reach 1.1 million tonnes and 2.8 million tonnes, respectively, by 2018. The chart below shows the
poultry and pork market size in Vietnam from 2008 to 2018F.

Upstream segments, including breeding and fattening, are dominated by small-scale farms, which supply
approximately 80.0% of total output. The downstream segment, involving slaughtering, processing, and retail, is
underdeveloped. In Vietnam, only about 10.0% of total meat produced is processed. This is mainly due to the low
domestic demand for processed meat since Vietnamese have a preference for fresh meat.
Feed Processing: Small-scale chicken and pig farms often use self-mix feeds with locally available raw materials,
whereas commercial growers buy branded feeds. Over the past decade, the commercial animal feed mills have
witnessed significant growth. The contribution of commercial feed mill companies has increased from 20.0% of
total animal feed supply in 2001 to over 50.0% in 2011. Commercial feed mill companies such as CPV and Japfa,
experienced great growth momentum during this decade.
Breeding pigs and chicken are supplied by three main breeders: state-owned breeding farms, foreign-owned farming
companies, and individual breeding farms. CPV and Japfa are the two biggest players in the poultry breeding
business. In addition to producing pigs and DOCs for fattening internally at their own commercial farms, CPV,
Japfa and Emivest also provide farrows and DOCs to other farmers. Foreign-owned companies command a majority
of market share in the broiler breeder business.
In Vietnam, there are three types of fattening farms for pork and poultry: commercial farms, independent farms, and
small individual farm holders. Commercial farms raise pigs and chickens using two modes of operation: contract
farming and rental farming. For contract farming, the company engages smaller farms to help fatten the animals
using the companys breed, feed and veterinary services. Smaller farms are paid farming fees by the company to
produce Finishers (fattened animals that are ready to be sold). For rental farming, a company rents facilities from a
third-party organization. The company has direct control over the animal fattening process. Independent farms and
small individual farm holders, on the other hand, take charge of animal production on their own facilities and dont
operate under any contract.
Slaughtering, Processing & Distribution: Finishers are sold by producers at the farm gates. Pig finishers are
slaughtered at slaughtering houses before being sold to the markets. Some chicken finishers (mainly native
chickens) are sold alive in wet markets while the rest (mainly broilers) are brought to slaughtering houses for further
processing. In Vietnam, slaughter houses also play the role of wholesalers and have a major influence on the prices
of pork and chicken. Other wholesalers normally bring meat from slaughtering houses to wholesale markets, retail
wet markets and catering units. Since most Vietnamese consumers prefer fresh meat, the majority of meat is sold
fresh (pork and chicken) or live (mainly chicken) in wet markets. Only a small part of the meat output
approximately 10.0% goes to processing facilities.
Pork and poultry industries in Vietnam are characterized by small-scale operations, fragmentation, and
underdevelopment. However, pork and poultry industries are at their emerging phases of commercialization. At
present, CPV is the only business in Vietnam that has an integrated system which covers the entire value chain.
Japfa, another foreign integrator in Vietnam, runs their operations in the segments of feeds processing, breeding,
fattening and slaughtering.
Input Cost Contribution for Poultry and Pork Farming
For both poultry and pork farming, feed represents the most significant contribution to the overall input cost by
accounting for approximately at 65.0% 70.0%. The cost of animal feed in Vietnam is higher than other countries
of similar economic status. This is largely because Vietnam has been reliant on imports of feed ingredients. In 2013,
approximately 30.0% of feed ingredients were imported, including soybean meal, corn, and wheat. Vietnam also
imports 90.0% of dried soybean cakes, 80.0% of premixes, and 100.0% of minerals and vitamins. Prices of feed
ingredients and processed feeds are shown in the following charts:

Corn and soybean meal are often used as a base for animal feed due to their low cost, richness in protein and high
energy. The price of soybean increased from USD 168.8 per tonne in 2001 to USD 538.0 per tonne in 2013 at a
CAGR of 10.1%. During the same timeframe, the price of corn increased from USD 89.6 per tonne to USD 297.5
per tonne, registering a CAGR of 10.5%. The processed feed market has also seen a steady rise in price on the back
of elevated cost of grain. Price fluctuations in animal feed ingredients have pushed up the price of poultry and pork
and raised uncertainty in farms cost planning.

fattening farms and 1,950 registered chicken farms7. The majority of pig farms are small scale with pig populations
from 100 to 200 heads. These small-scale farms account for 75.5% of the total output. Pig and chicken farms in
Vietnam are concentrated in the Southeast Region and the Red River Delta due to favorable weather and land
conditions.

Large farms achieve better performance in Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR)8 and reproduction rate. According to the
Vietnam Livestock Association, pig farms with above 2,500 heads have an average FCR of 2.5 to 2.6, significantly
lower than the FCR of small farms with less than 100 heads , between 2.8 to 3.2. A sow in pig farms with above
2,500 heads can reproduce 20 to 23 weans a year, while a sow in small farms with less than 100 heads only
reproduces around 9 to 17 weans a year. This is mainly because larger farms tend to have higher quality breeds,
better biosafety measures and operational management, and stronger veterinary services.
4.2.6
Competitive Landscape
Vietnams commercial poultry and pork industry is dominated by foreign companies. CPV and Japfa are leading
players in both segments. CPV is a subsidiary of the parent company Charoen Pokphand Group, Thailand. CPVs
operations cover three main areas: feed production for livestock (including pig and poultry), farming (poultry, pig,
and aquaculture), and consumer food. CPV is the largest player in Vietnams poultry and pork market.
Japfa is a subsidiary of the parent company Japfa Ltd. Japfas operations mainly cover feed production for livestock
and farming (poultry and pork). Japfas integrated production process has allowed it to consolidate its industry
leading position in the poultry and pork markets. According to Vietnams Livestock Husbandry Association, foreign
companies supply approximately 90.0% of DOCs to commercial farms. In 2012, CPV accounted for approximately
44.0% market share in terms of number of DOCs produced, followed by Japfa and Emivest, accounting for 23.0%
each. According to the Head of Vietnam Livestock Husbandry Association, in 2012, CPV accounted for 5.0% to
7.0% market share in terms of pork production volume. In the same year, Japfa, San Miguel Pure Foods, and
Guyomarch collectively accounted for 5.0% to 7.0% market share.

Since transitioning to a civilian government in 2011, Myanmar has seen rapid progress in modernizing and opening
up its economy. Myanmars GDP is expected to grow by 9.3% in 2014. Strong FDI, rising commodity exports and
strong growth in service and construction sectors will drive GDP growth. Frost & Sullivan expects the robust
economic growth to fuel demand for poultry in Myanmar.
Myanmar has been primarily an agricultural economy. In 2012, the agriculture sector contributed 38.0% of
Myanmars GDP. Livestock and fisheries contributed to about 15.0% of agricultural GDP. Fish is the preferred
source of protein in Myanmar and accounted for 53.0% of total protein production in 2012. During the same year,
poultry was the second most popular protein source and contributed approximately 15.0% of total protein
production. In Myanmar chicken contributes more than 91.0% of total poultry production and serves as a good
representation of the overall industry.
Feed Conversion Ratio is a measure of an animal's efficiency in converting feed mass into increases of output. It is calculated by dividing
amount of food consumed by the weight gained over a period of time.

DOCs, fattening, sales and distribution and processing.
Figure 4.22 Value Chain of Poultry Segment, Myanmar
Feed Production
Breeding
Fattening
Sales and
Distribution
Processing
Feed Production involves the supply of feed for poultry. Large-scale mills include both state-owned (LFME) and
privately-owned enterprises. Breeding involves the supply of Day-old chicks. Fertile eggs are incubated by modern
heating methods available at commercial farms. Farmers purchase the DOCs from commercial farmers for fattening
purposes. Fattening involves rearing chickens in farms for sale in markets. The industry is dominated by small
holding backyard farms, which own 84.0% of the total chicken population. Only 16.0% of the chicken population is
owned by the commercial sector, including chickens raised in large-scale and by-contract farms. Very few, about
2.0%, of the total chicken population, are raised in intensive, large-scale production systems.
Sales and distribution involves distribution through various channels. The majority of incoming birds are sold live
to wholesale outlets and market stalls in townships where they are slaughtered and processed. Processing is the
stage where birds are slaughtered and added to a production line to be defeathered, gutted, cleaned, and disinfected
before they are dressed and packaged into cold storage facilities. Most of the poultry in Myanmar is sold in wet
markets where chickens are processed at the point of sale. The processed chicken market is still underdeveloped.

Demand Dynamics
Myanmar has seen a steady rise in per capita poultry meat consumption. The per capita poultry meat consumption
grew at a CAGR of 3.8% from 17.2 kg in 2008 to 20.7 kg in 2013. Frost & Sullivan forecasts the per capita
consumption to increase to 24.3 kg in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 3.3% from 2013. The rapid growth of the poultry
industry in Myanmar has been primarily driven by macroeconomic factors such as increasing disposable income,
demographic changes and rising rates of urbanization.
Increasing GDP per capita: Myanmars per capita GDP increased from USD 675 in 2008 to an estimated USD
1,116 in 2013, registering a CAGR of 10.6%. This has led to a similar rise in disposable incomes. Higher disposable
incomes translate into an increased demand for poultry products.
Rising Urbanization: the urbanization rate in Myanmar has seen an upward trend over the past few years. The
Myanmar urbanization rate increased from 29.4% in 2005 to 32.1% in 2010. Myanmars urbanization rate is
forecasted to grow to 34.9% by 2015. As the proportion of population living in urban areas rises in Myanmar,
demand for poultry and other sources of protein is likely to increase.
Modernization of sales and distribution channels: As the Myanmar economy modernizes and continues to attract
foreign direct investment, distribution channels will become more efficient and advanced. The growth of modern
retail channels, such as shopping malls and food stores, will make poultry meat available to a larger base of
population.
4.3.5
Supply Dynamics
Poultry production has increased in Myanmar due to the opening up of its economy and involvement of both foreign
and local companies in poultry farming activities. Almost half of poultry is raised in 5 divisions namely Mandalay,
Sagaing, Yangon, Bago, and Shan. With 15 million birds, the Yangon Division has the largest poultry stock,
followed by the Bago Division with 12 million birds. Combined, Yangon and Bago account for 42.0% of the
national duck population, and a quarter of the national chicken flock.
Poultry production systems can be classified into three types: small backyard farms raising less than 50 birds;
medium-scale farms with a flock size ranging from 50 to 1,000 birds; and large-scale farms for commercial poultry
production that have more than 1,000 birds. The majority of poultry production is done in small-scale backyard
farms. In 2012, there were approximately 276,449 backyard farms with 15.6 million native birds. In the same year,
there were approximately 3,000 large-scale commercial farms with 4.9 million broilers.
Quality metrics used in Myanmars Poultry Industry are FCR and mortality rate of DOCs. In Myanmar, FCR varies
between 1.8 and 1.9 and mortality rates of DOCs vary from 5.0% to 9.0%. It is observed that small backyard farms
generally have higher FCR and mortality rates. This is mainly because medium and large commercial farms tend to
implement superior management practices and have access to capital to purchase quality feeds and faster growing
resilient breeds.

Feed, accounting for 64.6% of the overall input cost, is the largest cost in operating a poultry business in Myanmar.
Poultry prices fluctuate with the prices of locally available feed. Backyard farms normally use traditional and lesseffective feed ingredients. Commercial farms generally use mass-produced commercial feeds. There are three
government-owned feed mills and six privately-owned feed makers and integrators supplying feeds to commercial
farms. The biggest private feed mill players are CP and Japfa.

Competitive Landscape
Most of the players are within the 5 major townships of Myanmar, namely Yangon, Mandalay, Mawlamyine, Bago,
and Pathein, as there is a strong pool of customers. The majority of industry players are small-scaled. Japfa is well
established in major townships such as Yangon, Mawlamyine and Mandalay, and it is engaged in poultry feed and
poultry farming, as well as livestock services. CP is a strong player in the poultry industry and covers a broader
business and geographic range than Japfa. Its operations in Myanmar include poultry farming, veterinary medicines,
food stalls, egg trade, and marine products.

In India, animal protein is sourced from poultry, lamb, beef, and pork. The following chart highlights the split
between animal protein products in India. Though, beef accounts for 41.0% of Indias meat production, it is largely
an export commodity, with very minimal domestic consumption. Beef and pork are consumed in negligible
quantities due to cultural and religious beliefs. Hence, poultry has the advantage of being widely accepted by Indian
consumers.

India is among the top 10 producers of poultry and related products globally, mainly due to large-scale integration of
its domestic production. Domestic demand in India has surged on the back of a healthy GDP, growing population,
rising purchasing power, increasing urbanization and changing food habits. The growth of modern retail outlets in
metropolitan cities has provided better access to meat products than ever before. The storage and presentation of
meat products at modern retail outlets is hygienic, a direct contrast to the insanitary conditions in local butcher
shops. Companies such as Godrej Agrovet Limited, Venkys (India) Limited and Suguna Foods Limited (formerly
Suguna Poultry Farm Limited) have invested in establishing their own retail outlets and processed chicken brands,
providing more options for consumers. In the past decade, the popularity of quick-service restaurant chains like KFC
and McDonalds in urban parts of India has also contributed to the growing acceptance and consumption of poultry.

Feed Production: Throughout the growth process from a day-old chick (DOC) to a fully-grown broiler, the feed
content is varied to provide optimum nutrition to the bird. Feed mills manufacture different types of feed for broilers
at different stages of the life-cycle. Feed mills supply to parent breeder farms and commercial contract farms where
the chicks are raised and fattened.
Parent Breeder Farms: Layer hens are raised in special breeder farms where they lay eggs at 24 weeks to 64
weeks, with a weekly average of four fertilized eggs. The eggs are then transferred to specially incubated hatcheries.
Hatched chicks have a survival rate of 85.0% in well-managed poultry farms.
Commercial Contract Farms or Fattening: DOCs are sold to contract farmers or grown in-house under
constant monitoring. The fattening process refers to the act of growing a chicken in a farm. Broiler chickens are
grown till they reach a carcass weight of 1.8 kg to 2.0 kg, and are then sold to traders.
Processing: Vertically-integrated manufacturers have a processing stage that is machinery-intensive; however only
5.0% to 7.0% of the total production in India is converted into processed meat products. The birds are slaughtered

and added to a production line to be defeathered, gutted, cleaned, and disinfected before they are dressed and
packaged into cold storage facilities. This system is still in its development stages in India.
The downstream market for live birds includes the wet and processed varieties. At present, up to 93.0% of Indias
poultry sales happen in the wet markets, where local butchers slaughter and dress the live birds at the point of sale.
The processed market consists of birds that have been slaughtered, dressed, cut, processed, packaged, and stored in
cold storage facilities. It also includes value-added products such as poultry processed into ready-to-eat comestibles.
Companies such as Godrej Agrovet Limited only process chicken, whereas Suguna Foods, Venkys India Limited,
Amrit Poultry and others have integrated processing into their existing poultry value chain. The growth potential of
the processed chicken market is estimated at 15.0% to 20.0% per annum until 2018, based on a research study
conducted in 2013 by Anna University (India).
4.4.4
Demand Dynamics
In recent years, the poultry industry has grown rapidly, driven by macroeconomic factors such as robust economic
growth, increasing disposable income, growing urbanization, as well as industry-specific factors such as better
health awareness, consumer preference towards poultry and improved availability of poultry products.
Changing Dietary Preferences in Urban Areas: The proliferation of malls and shopping complexes with food
courts in India has influenced a change in the dining habits of consumers. Many more Indians are eating out as more
people, especially women, enter the workforce in urban areas. Quick-service restaurants have become hugely
popular in India, leading to the growth of chains such as KFC, McDonalds, and Pizza Hut; a majority of which
feature processed chicken on their menus. KFC, with a predominantly chicken menu, has tripled in size from 2008
to 2013, and to date operates 360 outlets in the country.
Religious Restrictions: Poultry is the meat of choice as it is a neutral option with no religious restrictions like beef
or pork. People also prefer poultry on the grounds that it is leaner and healthier than beef and pork. Frost & Sullivan
expects this preference towards poultry to persist in the Indian market and drive the consumption of poultry over
beef and pork.
Diversified retailing network and efficient distribution: Less than 7.0% of all chicken meat sold in India is in
packaged and frozen form, while majority of consumers buy poultry from wet markets. The growth of modern retail
channels such as shopping malls and food stores have made poultry meat available to a larger base, and reputable
brands sell packaged and frozen chicken through these outlets. The presence of such hypermarkets will positively
influence the growth of the poultry industry in India.
Rising health awareness: It has been recognized that the traditional Indian vegetarian diet lacks sufficient protein.
The National Egg Coordination Committee (NECC) has launched consumer campaigns in the past to encourage egg
consumption. Indians are slowly opening up to animal proteins by first exploring neutral sources such as eggs and
poultry. The per capita consumption of eggs increased from 37 eggs in 2001 to 54 eggs in 2012.
In conclusion, the per capita consumption of meat in India is very low compared to other nations. The National
Commission of Nutrition in India recommends a per capita consumption of 11 kg of meat per year; poultry
manufacturers are optimistic of this recommendation because the existing taboos against beef and pork leave ample
room for growth in poultry consumption. Religious practices and cultural leanings influence dietary preferences;
hence vegetarian protein sources are preferred over meat sources. As a result, it is unlikely that Indias per capita
consumption of poultry will grow to levels seen in developed countries.

Supply Dynamics
In India, the most commonly adopted business model is the Integrator Model. DOCs are reared by the companies
and booked to contract farmers, along with feed, vaccines, and medication. Contract farmers have to invest in their
own shed, equipment, utilities and manpower to raise the birds. Grown broilers are then bought back by the
companies to be sold down the value chain (traders, distributors, etc.). Such contract farmers are paid a growers fee
based on the performance metrics. Many small-scale independent farmers have accepted this model, which currently
accounts for approximately 60.0% to 65.0% of the production in India.
The alternative business model does not engage contract farmers. Poultry companies or individual farmers operate
their own poultry farms without contract and sell in the open market. In India, this system is prevalent in the eastern
and northeastern states. Poultry production has increased due to large scale integration of the traditionallyfragmented market under a contract farming arrangement.
Poultry Unit Price
The main factor affecting the cost of poultry is the feed prices. Poultry prices have increased steadily because of
increasing feed prices; the main components of feed are maize and soybean. Increasing cost of poultry products in
an already price-sensitive economy inclined towards practicing vegetarianism is likely to adversely affect the sales
of poultry. The challenge lies in being able to effectively control the cost of production. The following chart shows
price trends for some important feed components; the prices are expected to increase in the future.

Number of Farms
The poultry farm structure in India varies widely. Small farms with less than 2,000 birds make up the majority of
industry in India. There are relatively fewer large farms though this number is on the rise. Poultry farms in India are
concentrated in the southern states, mainly because the weather is warmer year-round compared to northern India.
Tamil Nadu has the highest population of broiler chickens according to an FAO report on the Indian poultry
industry.

Input Costs for Poultry farming
Poultry farming requires low capital investment. Approximately 88.0% of the costs of poultry farming are variable,
with a limited proportion of fixed cost factors. The cost of animal feed represents approximately 62.0% of the total
cost of poultry farming. The cost factors are outlined in the table below:

Competitive Landscape
The poultry industry in India has evolved into an organized set-up, with approximately two-thirds of production
being controlled by organized players via the Integrator Model. The push in the current market is towards vertical
integration, where downstream processing is controlled by the parent companies. Though international players
represent a minor share of the market, players such as Japfa Comfeed and Charoen Popkhand Group have
established themselves in India and strengthened their market position over the past decade. The main participants in
the Indian poultry industry are V H Group, Suguna Foods Limited, Amrit Group, and Godrej Agrovet Limited.

As significant economic growth has led to better living standards in China; beef consumption per capita in China
increased from 4.6 kg in 2008 to 5.1 kg in 2013. Frost & Sullivan expects per capita beef consumption to increase to
5.4 kg by 2018. However, per capita consumption of beef in China still remains significantly lower compared to
other countries that have similar dietary cultures, such as Japan (10.0 kg in 2012), Taiwan (9.6 kg in 2011), South
Korea (12.9 kg in 2011) and Hong Kong (32.3 kg in 2011). The total sale of beef in China increased at a CAGR of
18.9% from USD 28.4 billion in 2008 to USD 67.4 billion in 2013, and Frost & Sullivan expects it to reach USD
122.1 billion by 2018. In line with the increasing input cost of beef production, the retail beef price increased at a
CAGR of 15.2% from USD 4.7 per kg in 2008 to USD 9.5 per kg in 2013.
Animal protein is an important source of protein for the Chinese, with a total consumption of 84.3 million tonnes of
animal protein in 2012. Pork accounted for a majority share of 64.0% of total animal protein consumption in 2012,
due to historical preferences. During the same year, poultry and beef accounted for approximately 23.0% and 8.0%,
respectively. Aligned with improving living standards and increasing health awareness, recent trends suggest that

The value chain of the beef industry in China generally consists of six key steps: upstream sectors that include feed
processing, breeding and fattening; downstream sectors that cover slaughtering, processing, and sales & distribution.
Feed
Processing
Breeding
Fattening
Slaughtering
Processing
Saless &
Distribution
Feed processing sector involves roughage mix and processing to be served as main feed for cattle. Key feed
ingredients include forage, straw, and corn. Most large-scale farms have their own fields to plant key feed
ingredients with equipment for processing. Large-scale farms are advantaged by absorbing the cost of feed supply
internally. Large-scale farms also own research facilities to investigate the optimum feed mixture in order to
generate optimum returns. Medium-scale farms usually purchase processed feeds from feed suppliers. While smallscale farms usually mix feed themselves. In 2013, approximately 99.7% of farms were small-scale farms, each with
less than 100 heads of cattle.
Breeding sector involves breeding and raising calves. There are various domestic cattle breeds available in China as
well as crossbred cattle of imported and local breeds. In 2012, the cattle pregnancy rate in China was estimated at an
average of 90.0%. The cattle pregnancy rate ranged from 75.0% to 95.0% based on different environment and
management, among other factors. The breeding efficiency of small-scale farms was lower than that of medium or
large-scale farms due to less advanced technology and less efficient management. Fattening sector involves
concentrated fattening of beef cattle. The fattening cycle generally takes 3 to 9 months and it may last longer for
premium beef cattle. It is observed that there is a supply shortfall of calf and feeder cattle. This is mainly caused by
excessive slaughtering rates of pre-mature cattle and decreasing population of farmers due to rural-urban labor
migration.
Slaughtering sector involves carcass segmentation, acid discharging, and boning. The profit from slaughtering is
mainly driven by economy of scale; therefore, it is the least profitable sector in the value chain. This has mainly
resulted from low utilization rate and high amortization costs due to over-capacity in this segment
Processing sector involves frozen and chilled beef processing, beef offal and leather processing (excluding deep
processing products). The main products include fresh meat, frozen meat, and cooked products. Sales &
distribution involves the distribution of beef products to various outlets. The distribution channel of beef products
in China includes the following: 1) Hotels, restaurants and clubs are the largest distribution outlets and represent
more than half of the total beef sales volume. Premium beef is primarily consumed in western restaurants, hotels,
and clubs. Beef for the mass market is largely used as hamburger meat and sold through fast food restaurants; 2)
Retail distribution channels mainly include supermarkets, hypermarkets, and grocery stores. These distribution
channels primarily cater to household demand and accounted for approximately one-fourth of total beef sales
volume in China; 3) Traditional trading market offers a wide range of fresh food products. This channel mainly
provides chilled beef and accounted for approximately 10% of total beef sales volume. The rest is mainly sold to
downstream companies for further processing into packaged products and later sold at FMCG markets.
Given the level of maturity of the industry, modern distribution channels such as hotels, restaurants, and clubs are
expected to continue expanding. It is also expected that market share of the retail distribution channel is likely to
increase in the future. This is mainly driven by rising demand for fresh, branded, good quality and green (grass-fed
beef) as more consumers are willing to pay premium for branded products for better safety and quality.

animal feed due to their low-cost, abundant supply, richness in protein and high energy. The increase of feed cost
led to a rise in the overall production cost of beef. The chart below shows the fluctuations of cattle feed cost in

Demand Dynamics
Beef consumption per capita in China has increased from 4.6 kg in 2008 to 5.1 kg in 2013. Frost & Sullivan expects
per capita beef consumption to increase to 5.4 kg in 2018. Beef consumption patterns vary significantly across
China, due to varying regional traditions and cultures. In regions with larger Muslim population, such as the
Xinjiang and Ningxia provinces, beef has traditionally been considered one of the most popular choices of animal
protein. Beef consumption per capita is significantly higher in these regions compared to the average consumption
level in China. Also, beef consumption is higher in cities compared to rural areas with urban residents consuming
three to four times more beef than rural people. The chart below shows the per capita consumption of beef in China

Supportive Government Policies: The Chinese government has implemented a number of policies aimed at
supporting the beef industry, which include improving beef industry standards, enforcing safety standards,
expanding supplies and sources of cattle and improving the quality and taste of beef. Frost & Sullivan expects these
measures to contribute to the increase in consumer demand for beef.
4.5.5
Supply Dynamics
There are four major cattle production areas in China, namely the Northeast, Central, Southwest and Northwest
regions. Each has its own unique geographical features that are advantageous for cattle breeding, such as natural
grassland, feed resources, and breed supply. Fattened stock of beef cattle increased from 44.5 million heads in 2008
to 48.3 million heads in 2013, registering a CAGR of 1.7%. The number dropped in 2011, mainly due to natural
disasters and excessive slaughtering in 2010. The chart below shows the total beef cattle fattened stock in China
from 2008 to 2013E.

The market is dominated by small-scale farms whose annual fattened stock is less than 100 heads each. In 2013,
around 80.0% of beef cattle were raised in small-scale farms. Recent trends suggest continuing consolidation in the
cattle fattening industry. This is mainly because large-scale farms can leverage economies of scale to lower feed
costs and sustain the higher profit margins. Large-scale farms also have stronger bargaining power over downstream
players such as slaughtering plants. Additionally, large-scale farms receive greater support from the government
through favorable policies. The table below depicts the share of various types of cattle farms in China, in 2008 and
2013, respectively.

Strong demand for beef, together with a domestic supply shortage, has resulted in a rise in beef prices. The retail
price of beef increased from USD 4.7 per kg in 2008 to USD 9.5 per kg in 2013, at a CAGR of 15.2%. Frost &
Sullivan expects the price of beef to continue increasing due to the following reasons:
i. Increase in demand for beef has outpaced the supply in China;
ii. Increase in demand for premium beef has outpaced demand for beef for mass market;

The market size of the consumer food industry increased at a CAGR 14.1% of from IDR 203.9 trillion in 2008 to
IDR 394.7 trillion in 2013, and Frost & Sullivan expects it to increase at a CAGR of 12.0% to reach IDR 621.1
trillion in 2017. According to the World Bank Food Price Watch, a number of reasons that include an increasing
population, shifting consumer preferences, high vulnerability to bad weather contributed to the food price inflation
in Indonesia. The frequent occurrence of natural disasters in Indonesia, such as the earthquake in Padang in
September 2009 and multiple volcanic eruptions throughout the years, also pushed up staple food prices. Driven by
the growth of the overall consumer food industry, the processed and packaged consumer food segment has
witnessed significant increase in terms of retail sales value from 2008.

Drivers
Indonesian diet staples (rice, poultry, meats, fish, and vegetables) are readily available in the form of either ambient
temperature or frozen foods. The robust growth projected in ambient temperature foods is set to drive the packaged
foods industry in Indonesia. Despite inflation, total sales value is expected to remain unchanged as people continue
to demand these staples, regardless of their price. Rapid urbanization in Indonesia is changing the profile of the
typical Indonesian household. Busier lifestyles and the need for convenience has increased the demand for ambient
temperature and frozen foods as meal preparation solutions.

Restraints
Due to the high incidence of natural disasters, there is an unstable supply of fresh ingredients to be processed and
packaged. As a result, companies must be well prepared to be able to survive the low supply periods. This may pose
a challenge for new entrants to the industry. As a developing country, a significant proportion of economic activity
in Indonesia consists of agriculture and farming. Factors such as abundant space to set up an agricultural area and
affordable cost to rear cattle for farming purposes are likely attract many new players to the market. As such,
companies in the sector face substantial competition to maintain market shares. The fragmented structure of the
supply of processed and packaged consumer foods is also highly competitive.
5.2
Ambient temperature foods are processed and packaged making them safe to store at room temperature and come in
a variety of convenient packaging including cans and cartons. The ambient temperature foods segment is the growth
driver of the overall industry, and its growth rates exceed those of the overall consumer food industry. This is largely
due to the increasing popularity of processed and packaged foods such as canned poultry, rice and packaged
vegetables, which are food staples in Indonesia.

Growth rates for ambient temperature foods are higher than frozen foods mainly because these foods are generally
cheaper, have longer shelf-life, and are more convenient for storage. This especially suits the Indonesia market as
retailers and consumers tend not to invest in freezers due to scarce electricity.
5.2.1
Market Share
The ambient temperature foods market is led by PT Heinz ABC Indonesia, with its flagship brand ABC having a
market share of 16.3%; closely followed by PT Maya Muncar, and PT So Good Food (Japfa), with 15.6% and
13.2% respectively.

PT Heinz ABC Indonesia, through its flagship ABC brand, offers a wide range of products, mainly composed of
fish and seafood, including its well-known sauces and condiments. As part of a major multinational corporation, the
ABC brand has leveraged on Heinzs global research and development efforts, with its extensive experience and
knowledge to consistently bring about food innovation in the local market.
PT Maya Muncar offers various fish products, such as sardines and mackerel, through its two brands - Botan and
Maya. The company has a longstanding presence in the market and offers competitive prices which appeal to pricesensitive consumers.
PT So Good Food (Japfa) is primarily popular for its ready-to-eat brands So Good, So Nice, and Sozzis. Wellreceived among children and teenagers, both brands are gaining exposure thanks to its active promotional campaigns
featuring popular celebrities.
5.2.2
Drivers
Due to its compact packaging, long shelf-life, and easy storage, consumers are more motivated to buy in bulk.
Distribution is also inexpensive as the products do not require specific storage conditions that could incur higher
transportation cost. This attracts more distributors to the supply chain, contributing to brand presence and driving the
sales of ambient temperature foods in Indonesia. Many players, who are vertically integrated within the supply
chain, have realized cost reductions by excluding external vendors.
To cater to the rising demand for ambient temperature foods, companies can ensure efficiency and delivery of their
stock by having contracts with companies from other parts of the supply chain. For example, some retailers have
agreements with distributors and wholesalers for supplies. Major contracts are common for ambient temperature
foods because of their longer shelf life, stable supply, and high consumer demand.
Restraints
Owing to the relatively simpler methods of distribution and easy storage, barriers to entry are lower, causing the
market to be saturated with many brands that offer similar products. The products are also competitively priced to
appeal to price-sensitive consumers. Companies rely on branding initiatives, innovative flavors, and packaging to
appeal to consumers and differentiate from the competition. As the market for processed and packaged foods is
saturated, there is a constant flow of new products and low brand loyalty among consumers who can easily switch to
other brands.
5.3
Frozen foods have to be stored in a refrigerator or freezer before cooking. The items are fresher than ambient
temperature processed foods since the method preserves taste, texture, and nutritional value. Some examples are
smoked or battered fish, plain seafood, meats, and vegetables. The frozen consumer foods segment has a slower
growth rate compared to ambient temperature foods. However, the total sales value of frozen consumer foods is
higher than that of ambient temperature foods.

Market Share
The top 3 players in the frozen consumer foods segment are PT Prima Food International, PT So Good Food (Japfa),
and PT Sierad Produce, with a cumulative market share of 84.6%.

PT Prima Food Internationals flagship brand, Fiesta, caters to upper-income consumers. Its premium poultry
product under the Golden Fiesta label is also aimed at affluent consumers. Prima Food has strengthened its position
as the category leader through integrated marketing campaigns, such as setting up booths in hypermarkets and at
culinary events, as well as through celebrity endorsements on TV.
PT So Good Food (Japfa) is a close competitor with the brand So Good that targets middle to high-income
consumers with its line of premium processed poultry products. The company builds brand awareness with celebrity
endorsements as well.
PT Sierad Produce sells its products under the brand name Belfoods and has several sub-brands such as Belfoods
Royal, Belfoods Favorite, and Belfoods Uenaak, which cater to various income segments. Positioned as a premium
product for affluent consumers, Belfoods Royal is available at hypermarkets and supermarkets. While the other two
brands are aimed at middle to low-income consumers and sold at competitive prices in traditional retail outlets. The
company is increasingly competing against the two leading players, by actively advertising on TV and conducting
in-store promotions.
5.3.2
Drivers
As frozen foods are not as processed nor have added preservatives, they are preferred by consumers who demand
healthier, fresher alternatives. The market is likely increase with population growth and need for convenience.
Indonesians also prefer whole foods such as fillets and poultry parts instead of cubed or pickled versions in ambient
temperature packaging.
Restraints
As frozen products need to be kept at a specified temperature, storage is an issue not only for consumers but for
players along the value chain as well. Refrigerated transport and warehousing capabilities are required to prevent
any deterioration in food quality throughout the distribution process. It is also an issue for consumers who do not
own a freezer or have limited access to electricity.
Due to the complexity of distribution, these goods are generally priced higher than ambient temperature foods and
less affordable for lower-income consumers. Local players face competition from foreign brands that have a
stronger market for frozen foods. Some goods include smoked salmon and other specialty seafood which local
companies do not distribute.

Objectives
The purpose of this Option Scheme is to provide an opportunity for Eligible
