Lievegem, 26th of August 2022 - 7:30 AM

Consolidated financial results first half year 2022.

Food service relaunch and cost inflation pass-through lead to sales growth.

Investment in plant-based startup.

1. 9% increase in half-yearly turnover: from EUR 342 million to EUR 373 million;

1. Stable turnover in the Processed Meats Division despite the full year effect of the termination of unprofitable contracts last year;

1. Recovery of the turnover in Ready Meals, thanks to resumed sales in food service;

1. Exceptional cost inflation is passed on responsibly and transparently - but with a delay;

1. Debt remains stable at EUR 75 million;

1. First investment in a plant-based startup, Davai BV;

1. The intention to merge with Imperial - Stegeman in Belgium and the Netherlands is pending further investigation by the Belgian and Dutch competition authorities.

As with all players in the food industry, the first half of the year was characterized by sharp inflation in the costs of raw materials, packaging and energy, as well as other costs. These price increases were passed-on to customers in a responsible and transparent manner, but with a delay. This delayed recharging translates into a drop in results compared to the first half of 2021.

This resulted in the following key results:

1. An increase in half yearly revenues from EUR 342 million to EUR 373 million o A decrease in underlying EBITDA from EUR 27 million to EUR 18 million
   o A decrease in EBIT from EUR 7 million to EUR 3 million
   o A normalization of tax charges resulting in a stable net result of EUR 1.5 million
   o Net debt remained stable at EUR 74.6 million (end of previous financial year: EUR 73.8 million)

Ready Meals

Half-year sales within the segment increased by EUR 33 million (+26.2%) compared to 2021. This increase can be attributed to the resumption of sales in the foodservice channel in post-Covid times and a solid demand for convenience products. With its core products, Ter Beke continues to focus on affordable, tasty and nutritious products for every consumer.

Moreover, there is a continued focus on innovation. Various new introductions were realized, including vegan meals for both retail and foodservice customers.

Ter Beke's UK operation, KK Fine Foods, won no less than six awards at the British Frozen Food awards ceremony, including 'Foodservice Product of the Year', 'Best New Meat Free Product' and 'Best New Fish Product'.

Meat products respond to changing consumer needs

The half-year turnover within the processed meats segment decreased by EUR 2.1 million (-1%) compared to 2021, mainly due to the discontinuation of non-profitable contracts last year, where Ter Beke is now seeing the 'full year effect'. There is a growing interest in healthier recipes (e.g. less salt), better traceability and an increased demand for sustainable products.

Ter Beke will continue to respond to this, also in the context of the ESG (Environmental - Social - Governance) objectives.

Furthermore, Ter Beke sees an increase in the importance of, for example, the Nutri-Score and similar alternatives. Here too, Ter Beke assumes its role and works actively with its customers to further optimize the quality of its products and to adapt them to changing consumer requirements.

Commitment to sustainable profitable growth & investment in Davai startup

Ter Beke aims to achieve sustainable and profitable growth by supplying tasty and high-quality processed meats and ready meals in various European countries and by manufacturing in Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK, France and Poland.

Moreover, Ter Beke did not wait for the merger with Imperial - Stegeman to renew its strategy. Ter Beke is committed to innovation with the development of a range of vegetable products and makes sustainability part of its DNA. Taking a shareholding in the start-up company "Davai" illustrates this innovation and responds to changing consumer needs. Davai makes vegetable dumpling snacks that are currently sold in Belgium and the Netherlands. In addition to its foodservice sales, Davai also realized a first retail listing in the first half of 2022.

CEO Piet Sanders states at the end of the first half of the year: While our turnover has grown by 9% in the last six months, or about EUR 30 million, Ter Beke continues to make every effort to monitor the impact of high cost inflation with a view to sustainable profitable growth. Responsibly passing on costs to our customers is part of this. In addition, we will continue to focus on the continuous improvement of operational efficiency, product recipes and more innovations. Our investment in Davai - which develops and sells tasty vegetable dumplings - is a good illustration of our company's renewed strategy. We are also working on a concrete plan to become more and more sustainable in everything we do. Hopefully, the planned merger with Imperial - Stegeman can take place, which will only enable us to achieve our ambitions even faster for our employees, customers and consumers."

Outlook

Since the cost price of the commodities used in the group's production process is highly dependent on world prices and these in turn are highly dependent (among other things) on the EUR/USD ratio, the developments in the war in Ukraine and climatological conditions, it is impossible at present to make a good estimate of the results for the future.

The Ter Beke group handles the increase in the price of its products in a responsible manner and also pays careful attention to the cost of energy and raw materials in line with its processes and governance. The group continues to focus on transparently passing on the exceptional cost inflation that characterizes the market.

The possible merger with Imperial - Stegeman has not been and will not be taken into account before 2022. If approved, synergies will be worked out from the time of closing and taken into account over time.
