UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2019
Kyiv, Ukraine - September 2, 2019 - Ukrproduct Group Limited ("Ukrproduct", "UPG" or the "Group") (AIM:UKR), one of the leading Ukrainian producers and distributors of branded dairy foods and beverages (kvass), today announces its unaudited interim financial results for the six months ended 30 June 2019.
The information contained within this announcement is deemed by the Company to constitute inside information as stipulated under the Market Abuse Regulations (EU) No. 596/2014 ("MAR").

Chairman and Chief Executive Statement
The Ukrainian economy grew modestly in the first half of 2019 year. Retail sales growth gained momentum in the second quarter of 2019, bolstered by rising wages, while favourable weather conditions contributed to strong domestic demand towards the end of the quarter. As a result, the Group`s operations improved domestically. Signs of weakness continued to linger in the industrial sector, where production contracted notably in June, however, this had little impact on the trading of the Group.
Despite concerns regarding the global economy and the uncertainty that the presidential and parliamentary elections in Ukraine brought, the Board considers that the overall results of the Group in first half of 2019 surpassed its expectations.
Trading
During the six months to 30 June 2019, revenue increased by 50% compared to the previous period. The main drivers of revenue growth were butter, beverages and processed cheese. The Company estimates that Ukrproduct's butter market share in Ukraine has increased by approximately 3% to 10.1% when comparing H1 2019 with H1 2018, whilst market share in processed cheese and processed cheese products has decreased by approximately 0.3% to 8.5% when comparing H1 2019 with H1 2018. However, in the first half of 2019, Ukrproduct became the top exporter of processed cheese in Ukraine. Hard cheese sales decreased by 2%, whilst sales of bulk & packaged spreads increased by 17%. Gross margins have increased given both increased sales volumes and the seasonal fall in milk prices in Ukraine. Sales of kvass beverage improved, driven by an active marketing strategy and the launch of a new product containing natural ingredients of juice and mint: Mojito.
Export sales increased due to rising export sales in supplementary products, however, export sales of packaged butter and spreads decreased overall. Skimmed milk products exports continue to decline as a result of worldwide prices being lower than domestic market prices.
The Group continues to expand export sales into non-dairy products - beverages and other food commodities.
Financial Position
Overall, the aforementioned factors resulted in the sizeable year-on-year increase in the Group's EBITDA and operating profit for the first half of 2019. Operating cash-flow was substantially improved during the period. In the first half of 2019, the Group`s revenue increased significantly over the same period last year, with average gross margin improving by 0.3%. The Group earned profit after tax of GBP740 000 (approximately 25.8 million UAH) for the period, which is an increase of GBP332 000 (approximately 11.6 million UAH) over the same period last year.
As at 30 June 2019, the Group had total liabilities of GBP 16.8 million (approximately 557.4 million UAH) and net assets of GBP 1.3 million (approximately 43.1 million UAH) with cash balances of GBP 0.2 million (approximately 6.6 million UAH). During the period, the Company made an interest payment of EUR79 760 to EBRD.
Outlook
Ukrproduct continues to pursue growth opportunities in beverages and export markets, whilst improving the cost and service efficiency of the supply chain. Despite continuing political risks in Ukraine, the Company is hopeful that its performance in the first half of 2019 will continue throughout the remainder of the year.

Non-IFRS financial information
The Group's results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). However, the Group uses Non-IFRS measures including Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) and Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA), which are used to measure segment performance. Non-IFRS measures have not been subject to audit or review.
The Group uses EBIT and EBITDA as key measures of its performance.
EBIT is an indicator of a company's profitability, calculated as revenue less expenses, the latter excluding tax and interest. To external users, EBIT provides information on the Group's ability to generate earnings directly from its operations, disregarding its cost of capital and the tax burden and thus making the Group's results comparable to similar companies across the industry where those companies may have varying capital structures or tax environments. To the management, EBIT provides a performance measure additionally adjusted for expenses that may be deemed fixed (i.e. stemming from the given capital structure) or externally imposed by the environment (i.e. the tax burden).
Six months ended Six months ended 30 June 2019 30 June 2018 ----------------- ----------------- GBP '000 GBP '000 ----------------- ----------------- CONTINUING OPERATIONS Net profit (loss) for the period 396 (187) Interest expenses (265) (231) Foreign currency exchange (loss)/gain, net 592 793 ----------------- ----------------- EBIT 723 375 ================= =================
EBITDA is calculated as revenue less expenses, the latter excluding tax, interest, depreciation and amortisation. Being a proxy to the operating cash flow before working capital changes, EBITDA is widely used as an indicator of a company's ability to generate cash flows, as well as its ability to service debt. Consequently, to the management EBITDA serves as a measure to estimate financial stability of the Group. Besides, excluding the effect of depreciation and amortisation along with cost of capital and taxation provides to external users another measure comparable to similar companies regardless of varying tax environments, capital structures or depreciation accounting policies.

Ukrproduct Group
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2019
(in thousand GBP, unless otherwise stated)
BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. REPORTING ENTITY
Ukrproduct Group Limited ("the Company") is a public limited liability company registered in Jersey with a registered office at 26 New Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3RA, Channel Islands.
The Group's overall management and production facilities are based in Ukraine, with the HQ in Kyiv. The Group commands leading positions in the Ukrainian processed cheese and packaged butter markets and owns a range of widely recognisable trademarks in Ukraine, including "Nash Molochnik" (translated as Our Dairyman), "Narodniy Product" (People's Product) "Molendam" and "Vershkova Dolina" (Creamy Valley).
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
(a) Statement of compliance
The unaudited condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union (EU). The condensed consolidated financial information in this half yearly report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' (IAS 34), as adopted by the EU, and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority.
The interim financial statements are unaudited but have been reviewed by the auditors.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for significant items of property, plant and equipment which have been measured using revaluation model. The consolidated financial statements are presented in British Pounds Sterling (GBP) and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (GBP000) except where otherwise indicated.
The accounting policies used and the methods of computation is the same as those disclosed in the Group's recent annual consolidated financial statements except for the adoption of new and revised accounting standards as disclosed in Note 3.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The Board has reviewed the Group's ongoing commitments for the next twelve months and beyond.
The Board's review included the Group's strategic plans and updated forecasts, capital position, liquidity and credit facilities. Based on this review no material uncertainties that would require disclosure have been identified in relation to the ability of the Group to remain a going concern for at least the next twelve months, from both the date of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the approval of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
(a) Going concern
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which envisages the disposal of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The recoverability of Group's assets, as well as the future operations of the Group, may be significantly affected by the current and future economic environment. The Board notified EBRD in advance of covenant breaches of the Loan during the first half of 2019. EBRD noted that actual breach of covenants is significantly improved when compared to the previous period and EBRD has continued to not demand accelerated repayment. This benefited the overall financial results for the Group, which significantly increased and the Group generated positive cash flow from operating activities totaling GBP 1.02 million. Accordingly, Management believes that Group has reliable access to sources of financing capable to support appropriate operating activity of Group entities.
(b) Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
The Ukrainian Hryvnia is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the majority of
the Group companies operate.
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's companies are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates ("the functional currency"). For the companies operating in Cyprus and BVI the functional currency is United States Dollars ("USD"). For the Parent company which located in Jersey the functional currency is Pound Sterling ("GBP"). For the companies operating in Ukraine the functional currency is Ukrainian Hryvnia ("UAH").
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in the thousands of Pound Sterling ("GBP"), unless otherwise indicated.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group entities at their respective functional currency rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.
The principal exchange rates used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are as follows:
Currency 30 June Average for 31 December 30 June Average for 2019 the six months 2018 2018 the six months ended ended (spot rate) 30 June (spot rate) (spot rate) 30 June 2019 2018 ---------- ------------- ---------------- ------------- ------------- ---------------- UAH/GBP 33,18 34,87 35,13 34,67 36,85 UAH/USD 26,17 26,94 27,69 26,19 26,76 UAH/EUR 29,73 30,45 31,71 30,57 32,42
(c) Reclassification
Where applicable, comparatives have been adjusted to present them on the same basis as current period figures.
(d) Rounding of amounts
Amounts in this financial report have, unless otherwise indicated, been rounded to the nearest thousand pounds.
3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
IFRS 16 'Leases'
IFRS 16 replaced the existing standard IAS 17 'Leases' with effect from 1 January 2019. Its objective is to ensure that lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represent lease transactions.
The Group elected to use the following practical expedients on transition:
- Use of single discount rates to reflecting similar lease terms and economic environments
- Recognition exemptions for lease contracts that at the transition date have a remaining lease term of 12 months or less
- Exclusion of initial direct costs from the measurement of the right of use asset
- The use of hindsight in determining the lease term for contracts containing options to extend or terminate the lease.
Recognition and measurement
The lease liability is recognised at the inception of a lease as the present value of the fixed and certain variable lease payments, plus any guaranteed residual values, any termination penalties if the lease term assumes termination options will be exercised and the purchase option value if it is reasonably certain that it will be exercised.
Interest is accrued on the lease liability based on the discount rate at commencement of the lease and is accounted for in finance costs and subsequent payments are deducted from the lease liability.
The right of use asset is initially measured as the value of the lease liability, adjusted for any indirect costs incurred to obtain the lease, restoration provisions and any lease payments made before the commencement of the lease.
The right of use asset will be depreciated over the life of the contract on a straight line basis.
Where the Group act as a lessor the lease will be classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risk and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset, or otherwise as an operating lease.
Nature and effect of adoption of IFRS 16
There are no significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.
IAS 19 'Employee Benefits'
An amendment to IAS 19: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement issued by the IASB on 7 February 2018 was endorsed by the European Union on 13 March 2019 and became effective from 1 January 2019. This requires a net defined benefit asset or liability to be remeasured using the current assumptions and fair value of plan assets at the time of the amendment. Current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the period are remeasured using the same assumptions and the same fair value of plan assets.
No such event occurred during the 6 months period ended 30 June 2019.
IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over tax income treatment'
IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over tax income treatment' specifies how to reflect the effect of uncertainty in accounting for income taxes where it may be unclear how tax law applies to a particular transaction or circumstance, or whether a taxation authority will accept a tax treatment.
This interpretation has not had a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.
4. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
IFRS 17 'Insurance Contracts'
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 17 'Insurance Contracts' in May 2017 to replace IFRS 4 'Insurance Contracts' for annual reporting periods beginning, at the latest, on or after 1 January 2021. It has subsequently published an Exposure Draft (ED) proposing targeted amendments in response to concerns and challenges raised by stakeholders, including a proposal to defer the implementation of IFRS 17 by one year and to extend the exemption from applying IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' for the same period.
It is expected that the deferral proposals will be approved and incorporated into an amended IFRS 17 standard due to be issued during 2020.
Draft legislation has been laid before Parliament to ensure that IFRS as endorsed by the EU at the date of the UK leaving the EU will be adopted for use in the UK as well as providing the Secretary of State with the power to adopt and endorse IFRS for use in the UK. It is expected that this power will be delegated to a UK IFRS Endorsement Board. In the event that IFRS 17 has not been endorsed by the EU by the time the UK leaves the EU, including any transitional period or arrangements that may be agreed, then the UK IFRS Endorsement Board will have responsibility for its endorsement. This is being monitored closely.
Other pronouncements
There are a number of amendments to IFRS that have been issued by the IASB that become mandatory during 2019 or in a subsequent accounting period. The Group has evaluated these changes and none have had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
5. ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The preparation of the interim financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
6. INVENTORY WRITE OFF TO NET REALISABLE VALUE
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value.
The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
The cost of work in progress and finished goods includes costs of direct materials and labor and other direct productions costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity).
The cost of inventories is assigned by using the FIFO method.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
The Group periodically analyses inventories to determine whether they are damaged, obsolete or slow-moving or if their net realisable value has declined, and makes an allowance for such inventories.
The loss from impairment of inventories amounted to:
