OVERVIEW:
The Company achieved robust results for the year, despite the uncertainty in our main sales markets caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic, with a pre-tax profit of Shs 848 million against Shs 1,014 million last year. Both avocado and macadamia export volumes were higher than 2019 but these were not sufficient to mitigate a significant reduction of 34% in the price of avocados. The market prices in 2019 were at record levels whilst 2020's prices were more in line with medium term average. The contribution to the overall results by macadamia and sales of wood products was encouraging and reflects the benefits of having a diversified product portfolio. The significant increase in tea production in Kenya (569 million kg v 458 million kg in 2019) has impacted negatively on price levels and consequently the profitability for this crop.
The results also include the cost of the Company defending itself from a UK law firm who wished to bring Kakuzi into the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom. As previously announced, Kakuzi was dropped as a party to the UK proceedings in July 2020.
DIVIDEND:
The Directors recommend the payment of a first and final dividend for the financial year 2020 of Shs 18.00 per ordinary share (2019: Shs 14.00) subject to shareholders' approval. The dividend shall be paid on or about 30 June 2021 to the shareholders on the members' register at the close of business on Monday, 31 May 2021.
The summarised consolidated financial results do not include all of the disclosures required for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report and consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING:
The Annual General Meeting of the Company will be held on Tuesday,18 May 2021 at 12.00 Noon by electronic means.
