OVERVIEW:

  The year saw the group post reduced earnings due to lower avocado production and prices. This was due to the avocado orchards entering their bi-annual offseason bearing cycle which results in a large crop of avocados in one year, followed by a small crop the following year. We, however, experienced greater earnings from macadamia sales during the year as a result of increased yields from our young orchards. Product diversification and value addition remain key investment areas to enhanced stakeholder value and our continued commitment to these is critical for the long term.

DIVIDEND:

  Your Board recommends an increase in the dividend per share to Shs 22.00 compared to Shs 18.00 per share in 2020 . The dividend shall be paid on or about 30 June 2022 to the shareholders on the members' register at the close of business on Tuesday, 31 May 2022.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING:

  The Annual General Meeting of the Company will be held virtually on Tuesday, 17 May 2022 at 12.00 Noon.

  INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF KAKUZI PLC

Opinion

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Kakuzi Plc and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, are derived from the audited financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021.

In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements of the Group, in accordance with the requirements of the Capital Markets (Securities) (Public Offers, Listings and Disclosures) Regulation, 2002 (''the Regulations'') as applicable to summary financial statements.

Condensed consolidated financial Statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all the disclosures required by the International Financial Reporting Standards as applicable to annual financial statements. Reading the condensed consolidated financial statements and the auditors' report thereon, therefore, is not a substitute for reading the audited financial statements of the Group and the auditors' report thereon.

The audited financial statements and our report thereon

We expressed an unmodified audit opinion on the audited financial statements in our report dated 22 March 2022. That report also includes the communication of a key audit matter related to measurement of biological assets. Key audit matters are those matters that in our professional judgement were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period.

Auditors' responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on whether the condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements based on our procedures, which were conducted in accordance with International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 810 (Revised), Engagements to Report on Summary Financial Statements.

The engagement partner responsible for the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is
