  2. KEY POINTS • SembCorp Industries’ PATMI for 1H99 grew 6% to $61.1m. • We achieved $11m from merger cost savings and rationalisations. • We had no exceptional items at half time. Last year’s interim earnings were boosted by SembCorp Logistics’ vessel sales which contributed an exceptional gain of $11m. Net that off and our PATMI growth half year-on-half year is 30%. • Some of our SBUs showed lower or flat earnings due to the recession’s tail-end effects. • Our FY99 management target is achievable given the improving outlook for the next six months. 2

  12. Divestment 12

  13. SAFE Superstore • SAFE Enterprises transferred its business and undertakings in SAFE Superstore to Elpizo Ventures (USA) for initial cash proceeds of $52m. • Final consideration could go above $52m, with a maximum upside of $11m computed on an agreed PER on SAFE Superstore’s earnings till Dec 31, 2000. • Financial effects on SembCorp Industries (assuming sale was completed on June 30, 1999): - Extraordinary gain of $16.6m. - NTA per share increases by 1.05 cents to 60.84 cents. - Gearing decreases from 0.74 to 0.7. - No material impact on EPS. 13

  14. Delifrance • Now holding negotiations with four parties with due diligence progressing. All four are going strong and equally “alive”. • Too sensitive to discuss their identities or disclose any details now. • SembCorp Industries will make an announcement upon conclusion of a sale. 14

  15. BUSINESS OUTLOOK 15

  16. BUSINESS OUTLOOK CONSTRUCTION • Tail-end of recession, tender prices low, industry slowly picking up. • Concentrating our marketing efforts outside Singapore -- particularly China and India. • Order book is adequate to maintain profitability, book to bill ratio is 1.77. • PATMI target for FY99 should be attained comfortably. 16

  17. BUSINESS OUTLOOK ENGINEERING • Oil and gas industry expected to recover over the next two years. • Chemicals and petrochemical industry flat for at least next year. • Focussing on offshore EPC projects -- in Malaysia, Philippines and beyond. • SUT makes its profit contribution this year. • Expect a stronger profit performance in 2H99. 17

  18. BUSINESS OUTLOOK NATUNA GAS • The supply contract of gas to Singapore is not in question. The award of the pipeline contract is the issue. • Work has already started on the pipeline. • Our contractual position with Pertamina is legally sound. • This is an international, high-profile deal. • The moment we get official information on this matter, we will update you. 18

  19. BUSINESS OUTLOOK LOGISTICS • Business has shifted focus to supply chain management and as a result, quality of earnings has improved. • China and India operations are performing better than forecasted. • More divestments of non-core businesses in progress. • Will meet management target announced in March. 19

  20. BUSINESS OUTLOOK INDUSTRIAL PARKS • Investment climate is improving. More tenant take-up to be seen in BIE and VSIP. • G & A controls to further reduce losses in BIE and KMIC. • BIP and BIE still remain attractive to investors. • WSIP losses likely to stay at FY98 level due to weak land sales and high interest expenses. 20

  21. BUSINESS OUTLOOK MARINE ENGINEERING • Offshore construction and shipbuilding will be backbone of company profitability. • Shiprepair is expected to show weakness. • A programme to reorganise our marine engineering operations is underway but the study is not yet complete. It is too early to disclose details -- ready around November. • Will meet management target for the year. 21

  22. BUSINESS OUTLOOK INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SCS • China is picking up well, expect more orders from this source. • Malaysia and New Zealand operations should perform strongly in FY99. • More e-commerce projects such as procurement services will be launched. • On track to achieve their management target. 22

  23. BUSINESS OUTLOOK INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PacNet • Pressure on profits due to competition, margins squeezed. • Broad-basing the business to increase e-content. • Focus on growing existing markets such as Australia, Hong Kong, Philippines and Singapore. • Expand into new territories such as India, Thailand, Korea and Japan. • Expect depressed profits (or even no profits) for two years at least but good growth in revenue and subscriber base. 23

  24. BUSINESS OUTLOOK FOOD PROCESSING AND DISTRIBUTION • Overseas subsidiaries are starting to turn around. • Achieved market share of 50 per cent of present local pork consumption. • Moving more into higher value-added activities such as the handling of fresh foods. • Full impact of Nipah virus on live pig imports will weaken 2H99 earnings but company on track to meet FY99 PATMI target. 24

  25. BUSINESS OUTLOOK RISKS • Tension or hostilities between China and Taiwan, India and Pakistan. • Possible devaluation of the Renminbi. • Socio-economic conditions in Indonesia. 25

  26. PRIORITIES FOR 2H99 • Drive the earnings growth of our SBUs. • Push on with divestment programme. Manage post-merger integration. • Implement best practices to achieve our goals of becoming a global knowledge-based company. • Drive a group-wide e-commerce strategy. • Strengthen our core capabilities by expanding into new business areas. • Attain our management target for FY99. 26
