New Britain Palm Oil Ltd

• Challenging period for the Group
• Profitability compared to FY2012 impacted by several principal factors:
• Lower average selling prices for crude palm oil and palm kernel oil
• Lower production mainly due to heavy rainfall early in the year, the Group’s accelerated replanting of over 6,500Ha of aged

palms at Kula plantations during 2012 and 2013, and biological yield declines in the second half of the year

• Net foreign exchange losses of US$17.5m comprised primarily of non-cash currency adjustments on the Group’s USD

denominated loans

• Significant investment in prior years enabled the Group to scale back its capex programme in FY2013 to reflect market conditions
• Cash generation remained solid enabling a 16.6% reduction in overall Group gearing
• Devaluation of the PNG Kina by approximately 17% during the year reduced cash costs of production

Price Performance

NBPOL share price, CPO, PKO

• Global palm oil prices traded in a range between US$800 and

US$900/tonne for most of 2013, averaging $853 versus $1,001 for 2012

• Palm prices started the year negatively reflecting the
• verhang of palm oil stocks in Malaysia and Indonesia
• Some improvement was seen during the first half of the

year as stock levels decreased, but the price retraced to a low of $785/tonne as Malaysia and Indonesia entered their peak production period

• Prices ended the year on a positive note reaching a high
• f $935/tonne in November following a sharp reduction in

inventory levels and strong demand, driven partly by biodiesel usage

• A similar trend was seen in PKO prices for most of the year
• PKO prices averaged US$900/tonne in 2013 (versus

US$1,108/tonne in 2012)

• PKO averaged a premium of 5% over CPO during 2013
• PKO and other lauric oil prices increased significantly late in 2013,

driven primarily by the expected supply concerns following typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines (a major producer of coconut oil)

• CPO is currently trading around US$930/tonne, while PKO is

trading around US$1,300/tonne

Corporate Events

• NBPOL entered into a ground-breaking agreement with Olenex C.V. (a joint venture between Archer Daniels Midland Company (“ADM”)

and Wilmar) to supply ADM and Wilmar with fully traceable, certified sustainable palm oil (refer to slide 23 for further details)

• The Group entered into a joint venture with SIPEF N.V. and BioSing to develop high yielding F1 hybrid oil palms
• JV aims to achieve significant yield and productivity enhancements for the palm oil industry
• An F1 hybrid variety is the first generation offspring of two distinctly different and genetically uniform parents, each with identical

sets of chromosomes

• This breeding technology has the potential to at least double conventional palm oil yields per unit of area (based both on the

historic yields achieved by other F1 hybrid crops such as corn (maize), and on oil palm's estimated physiological yield potential)

New Britain Palm Oil Ltd

Background

• In July 2013, Kulim (Malaysia) Berhad ("Kulim"), NBPOL's largest shareholder, launched an unsolicited conditional partial cash offer

for up to 20% of the issued shares of NBPOL at a price of GBP 5.50 per share (PGK 19.36)

• If fully accepted, the Offer would have resulted in Kulim’s shareholding increasing from 48.97% to 68.97%
• The NBPOL Board established an independent board committee to assess the merits of the Offer
• The Independent Directors of NBPOL formed the view that the negative aspects of the Offer outweighed any advantages which the

Offer provided. Accordingly, the Independent Directors of NBPOL recommended to shareholders that the Offer be rejected

• The PNG Minister for Trade, Commerce and Industry subsequently introduced an amendment to the PNG Takeovers Code

enabling the PNG Securities Commission to prevent the takeover of a Code company where it is deemed contrary to PNG’s national interests

• The Securities Commission exercised these new powers to issue orders preventing Kulim from proceeding with the Offer and the

Offer lapsed following the dismissal of a court application by Kulim to revoke the orders Update

• No further discussions have been held between Kulim and the Board with respect to the Offer or any future offer for the company
• The Board remains committed to ensuring that proper standards of corporate governance and investor protection are adhered to
• An additional Independent Non-Executive Director, Mr Ernie Gangloff, was added to the Board earlier this year
• Following the lapse of the Offer, NBPOL initiated discussions with the PNG Government to seek to address the uncertainty created

by the changes to PNG Takeovers Code

• The PNG Government has acknowledged the potential for the new rules to discourage foreign investment in PNG and we

understand that it is intending to release guidelines on the application of the new rules in the near future

Outlook

• While palm oil inventories remain relatively tight, ample supply of other vegetable oils (particularly soybean oil) is expected to limit

any upward movement of palm oil prices in the near term

• At the end of 2013 the Group had forward sales of c. 76,000 tonnes of 2014 CPO production made at an average price of

$922/tonne (as at 21 February 2014 forward sales were c. 121,000 tonnes at an average of $933/tonne)

• Expectation of normalised FFB collection, production and extraction in 2014
• FFB production in January/February 2014 is ahead of 2013 despite another wet start to the year
• Work to commence at Orangerie Bay on site infrastructure and the nursery in 2014
• Significant cost base reductions achieved through management initiatives and the circa 17% devaluation of the PNG Kina in 2013

should further contribute to improved operating margins this year

• Demand growth remained strong in 2013 according to USDA

figures (2012/13 marketing year)

• Palm oil consumption growth was 6.9%
• Total vegetable oil consumption growth was 3.4%,

driven by growth in both Food & Feed and Industrial use

• Structural shift in incremental demand for palm oil
• Local consumption in Malaysia and Indonesia

increasingly important

• Y-o-Y import growth from EU (+10.6%), India (+11.2%)

and US (+24.5%) remains healthy, though some data suggests China demand has stagnated

• Biodiesel usage is expected to grow significantly
• Estimated that Indonesia’s B10 mandate is equivalent to

5-7% of global CPO production

• In November 2013 the US FDA made a preliminary

determination that partially hydrogenated oils (e.g. PH soyoil) – a major source of trans fat in American diets – is no longer "generally recognized as safe“

• Outlook for palm oil demand remains robust with the

strengthening global economy and mandatory biodiesel implementation by the world’s two biggest PO producers

• Accelerated replanting programme in the Kula estates has been

substantially completed resulting in a higher than usual level of immature oil palm hectarage across the Group

• Around 13.5% of planted area is currently immature
• Approximately 25% of the acquired KPOL mature

hectarage (circa 6,500 hectares) has been replanted since 2011

• The Group also has approximately 11,000 Ha of cultivatable

land under lease which will be developed over the next few years

• Much of the sustainability and environmental work has

been completed at Orangerie Bay (including the Social Impact Assessment, Environmental Impact Assessment and the High Conservation Value assessment)

• Planning underway to improve road access and establish

a nursery in 2014

• At ‘steady-state’ the Group’s current land bank should see

approximately 86,000 Ha of mature oil palm in production, an increase of c. 25% from today’s level

• In addition, the Group is currently exploring a number of other
• pportunities within PNG and the broader South East Asian

region to significantly expand the Group’s land bank

• Production in 2012 and 2013 was negatively impacted by

exceptionally heavy rainfall, lower mature hectarage and biological yield declines in the second half of 2013

• Smallholder production was particularly impacted in

2013, down c.14% year-on-year

• Lower palm prices disincentivise smallholders from

harvesting fruit

• Smallholders are typically more exposed to biological

yield cycles due to lower fertiliser application

• Expectation of normalised FFB collection, production and

extraction in 2014

• Subject to favourable weather conditions in 2014, the Group is

targeting:

• FFB production (Group estates and smallholders) in the

range of 2.25 million – 2.40 million MT

• CPO extraction rate of 22.15 – 22.55%
• Assuming the above FFB and OER targets are achieved (at

midpoints), the Group expects CPO and PKO production of approximately 565,000 MT in 2014

NBPOL Cost of Production Outlook

• Group’s cost optimisation and efficiency review achieved a circa

$35m year-on-year saving

• Most of these cost savings should be maintained on an
• ngoing basis
• NBPOL’s fertiliser supply for 2014 was 100% contracted in October

2013

• Global fertiliser prices fell significantly during the first three

quarters of 2013, with some recovery seen late in the year

• NBPOL’s fertiliser costs in 2014 should be c. 10% per MT

lower year-on-year

• Fertiliser costs constitute approximately 15-20% of the

Group’s cash cost of production (excluding the cost of purchasing smallholder FFB)

• During 2013 the PNG Kina depreciated by c. 17% against the USD
• Assuming the Kina remains at current levels, the full effects of

the Kina depreciation will be seen in 2014 due the lag effect

• n the P&L
• Kina denominated costs (such as labour costs) constitute

approximately 40% of the Group’s cost base

• Non-cash currency adjustments on the Group’s USD loans

and debtors was US$23.2m in 2013

• Freight and fuel costs (approximately 25-30% of the Group’s cost

base) are expected to remain relatively flat in 2014

Raising the bar for palm oil sustainability

• In 2013 NBPOL became a founding member of the Palm Oil

Innovation Group (POIG) , an initiative supported by organisations such as Greenpeace, WWF and Rainforest Action Network

• POIG has developed a Charter which builds on and goes beyond the

RSPO certification scheme

• POIG’s main aim is to break the link between responsible

palm oil and deforestation

• Amongst other things, the POIG Charter includes:
• a complete ban on peat development
• a requirement for strengthened community engagement
• the implementation of high carbon stock approaches
• a requirement for full traceability in the supply chain
• The POIG Charter also requires members to publish regular

sustainability and carbon reports

• NBPOL is committed to completing trial audits against the POIG

Charter on all sites by year end 2014 PALM OIL INNOVATION GROUP (POIG)

If there is one lesson we have learned in our journey to RSPO certification, it is the value of stakeholder engagement at all levels of operations 26

socially responsible development based on NBPOL’s own research as to what can be achieved with investment in rural development The three pillars are based on The One Hour Principle: 1. Access to 20 litres of tap fed potable water within one hour’s walk 2. Access to a medical health post within one hour’s walk 3. Access to a primary school within one hour’s walk The three social pillars will be considered in the HCS land use decision making process for new developments, to ensure NBPOL is meeting community needs while not causing deforestation

Carbon reduction

• No burn policy (since 1967) and no planting on peat land
• Detailed strategy to reduce the Group’s carbon footprint and

achieve the ‘Zero Net GHG Emissions’ commitment

• Active planting on grasslands and scrub (net sequestration)
• Oil palm sequesters carbon from the environment

and locks it up in the biomass of trunk, fruit bunches and fronds

• Total standing carbon contained in palm trees in

West New Britain is calculated to be 80.31 tonnes of carbon per hectare at 21 years

• On average, oil palms in West New Britain add 4.06

tonnes of carbon per hectare per year producing a time averaged sequestration rate of 14.89 t CO2eq /ha/year

• Two methane capture projects have been commissioned

and further internal power generation capacity is in preliminary development stages

• NBPOL also operates a 5MW biomass power plant at

Kumbango reducing diesel requirements at this site by ~1 million litres p.a.

Consumer trends

• NBPOL has long believed in the commercial benefits of positioning

the company as a responsible producer of sustainable palm oil

• We have invested heavily over the years in developing a fully

integrated supply chain delivering 100% segregated, traceable and certified sustainable palm oil products and food ingredients

• The sustainability movement in the global palm oil industry has

generated significant momentum in recent times

• Retailers taking the issue particularly seriously (for many their

2015 deadlines are looming)

• Increasing concern about the need to go beyond RSPO and

make “deforestation-free” claims

• NBPOL is now well positioned to proactively work with global food

manufacturers and other customers to achieve their stated sustainability goals/commitments

• Global demand for CSPO continues to grow, albeit from a low base
• Both RSPO and CPET data suggest that customers are moving away

from GreenPalm certificates to physical oil supply

• NBPO’s own sales data shows a clear trend towards physical CSPO

(though at this stage Mass Balance rather than Segregated)

• The Group’s ability to deliver certified sustainable oil to its

customers is worth a significant amount per year in incremental revenue

Achievements

2012 2013

“[NBPO] has developed new ways to engage small farmers, who provide one- third of the company’s supply. These close ties have not only helped to reduce poverty, but also enabled the company to develop one of the world’s first fully

traceable palm oil supply chains.”

World Economic Forum, September 2011 “NBPOL is unquestionably one of the forerunners in the RSPO and can serve as a positive example for other plantation companies.” World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), 2009
