GROWING DEMAND FOR PALM OIL Future for palm oil consumption to be driven by demand from population and global economic growth 7 BILLION to 9 BILLION
PRESENT AND NEW USES OF PALM OIL PRODUCTS Food, non-food, biofuel and other biomass utilisation Non dairy ice cream Vegetable Ghee (Vanaspati) Non dairy chocolate Palm kernel oil Industrial frying Palm oil Red palm oil Non dairy creamer Cooking oil Margarine

OUTLOOK FOR FY2014 PALM PRODUCT PRICES Palm product prices has been on downward trend since end of 2012, amid high stocks & lower global demand CROP PRODUCTION (MALAYSIA) Notwithstanding replanting, crop production in Malaysia is expected to sustain the level of FY13 USD EXCHANGE The strengthening of US Dollar will impact on unrealised FOREX translation of borrowings CROP PRODUCTION (INDONESIA) Crop production growth from young planting and more areas coming into maturity

IJM PLANTATIONS BERHAD 28 th ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 23 rd August 2013, Holiday Villa, Subang Jaya QUESTIONS & ANSWERS SESSION
QUESTIONS FROM MSWG Q1. How many hectares of immature land in Indonesia that will mature in FY2014 and what is the expected amount of FFB production? A1. The total mature area as of 31 March 2013 was 3,761 hectares. Another 6,300 hectares is expected to mature in phases from April 2013 to March 2014. We expect to harvest over 100,000 metric tonnes of FFB in FY2014 from these mature plantings.
QUESTIONS FROM MSWG Q2. What will be the target new planting programme (in terms of hectares and estimated cost) in Indonesia in FY2014? What will be the capital expenditure of the second mill and its capacity in Indonesia? A2. The target for FY2014 is 3,000 hectares with a cost to maturity ranging from RM18,000 per hectare. The second mill with the capacity 90 mt per hour is expected to cost approximately RM100 million.
QUESTIONS FROM MSWG Q3. Given that USD has been strengthening against Ringgit and Indonesia Rupiah, and is expected to continue, why did the Board choose to increase its borrowings denominated in USD during the year and moreover the Group continues to hold high balance in cash? It is noted that RM296 million of USD denominated term loans were drawn down during the financial year. A3. In 2006/07, the Group embarked on an expansion programme in Indonesia with a target to double the size of operations. This undertaking is for the long term and our capital requirements would certainly be impacted by short-term currency fluctuations. The Group took the borrowings in USD as the revenues from the palm produce provide a natural hedge given that they are intrinsically referenced to USD as a commodity. In addition, Bank Negara Malaysia restricts Ringgit borrowings for use in foreign territories, whilst borrowings in Rupiahs attract disproportionately high interest rates.
QUESTIONS FROM MSWG A3 Continued The Group s Financial Risk Management and Policies which include foreign currency exchange risk are stipulated in page 124 of the Annual Report. The RM296 million USD denominated term loans were drawn down in accordance with the schedule of borrowings. The cash in hand at the close of the financial year, which includes funds generated from the operations, is meant for the planned FY2014 capital expenditure of RM250 million, in addition to the normal working capital requirements and dividend payment. It is prudent to have the funds needed for the expansion project in Indonesia ahead of spend so as not to disrupt the progress of our expansion plans.
QUESTIONS FROM MSWG Q4. Inventories increased 50% from the previous year s RM66.70 to RM100.63 million. What were the tonnages increases from the previous year in terms of CPO and PK? How long could the CPO inventory be kept without affecting its quality and subsequently the selling price of CPO? A4. At the close of FY2013, the inventories consist of 20,337 mt, 1,500 mt and 5,787 mt of CPO, PK and PKO respectively. (Note: At the close of FY2012, they were 7,000 mt of CPO, 1,332 mt of PK and 90 mt of PKO). Without heating and under controlled conditions, CPO can be kept for 12 months without affecting their quality significantly. If the quality specifications are maintained and met, the subsequent selling price of the CPO will be determined at their market price.
