The Chinese business was treated as a discontinued operation until 30 September

2017 and thereafter as an investment in an associate to be equity accounted going

forward. The China business has been folded into a new joint venture, in which Cooks

will hold a minority position, covering the greater China region. No further funds have

been invested in China since 30 September 2017, with Cooks China partner providing

funding, during a transition period, until 31 March 2018. Funds that Cooks owe as part

of this interim arrangement have been dealt with by an adjustment to the proportional

ownership structure in the new business, with Cooks share of the new company

settling at 21%.

CHINESE AND MIDDLE EAST

OPERATIONS

Cooks Global Foods (NZAX:CGF) today reports

strongly improved financial performance after a

year of consolidation that has set up the global

Organic and Fairtrade coffee operator for its next

phase of growth.

Group revenue from continuing operations for the

12 months to 31 March 2018 increased 26% to $6.73

million from $5.34 million the same time a year ago.

Cooks sales of beverage products and franchise

related fees show continuing strong growth in the

global Esquires Coffee House network as well as

a rising contribution from the branded consumer

business especially Grounded responsible coffee.

Annual net losses from continuing operations halved

to $1.6 million from $3.5 million in the same period a

year ago, with foreign exchange gains contributing

around $0.6 million of the turnaround.

Annual net losses, including discontinued

operations, narrowed to $4.1 million from $12.2

million in the prior financial year.

Employee and other costs increased to $6.5 million

from $6.0 million in the prior year, largely due to the

additional resource in the Esquires UK business to

support the growth in store numbers and revenue in

that territory and increased expenditure to support

the launch of Scarborough Fair’s new carbon-

neutral Grounded coffee brand.

Executive Chairman Keith Jackson said: “Cooks Global Foods has
made solid operational progress during the year. The core continuing

coffee operations are performing well, with more regions making a

positive contribution to operating earnings.

“The UK Esquires business continues to lead the global network with

group revenue from the region increasing 92% to $3.0 million now

representing 44% of total group revenue for continuing activities. We

have established new coffee operations in Portugal, Romania, Jordan

and Pakistan with these regions delivering positive results for the

company albeit with some coming into play late in the financial year.

“While we have confirmed the appropriate accounting treatment of

the restructured China business, the final agreements associated with

the new entity are still being completed. We have also moved closer

to finalising the terms for our new joint venture in the Middle East.

Both arrangements more closely align the interests of our regional

partners with Cooks and have the potential to accelerate growth of

our coffee operations in these regions.

“Our supply businesses, including the coffee and tea supplier

Scarborough Fair and the food exporter and importer Crux Products,

continue to make solid progress. We are particularly excited about

the potential for the Grounded responsible coffee brand which was

launched this year and has been growing strongly in New Zealand.

“We have also held discussions with a number of partners that

could propel growth in the coffee store network to above our

100-store target. While these discussions are ongoing they are so far

inconclusive.

“Finally, we completed a $10 million capital raising that has given us

sufficient momentum to bring our current operations to break even,

a goal we expect to achieve some time in the current financial year.

Together these achievements have put the company in a strong

position and give Cooks Global Foods confidence for the year ahead.”

Constant currency network store sales

were up 8.7% to $43.1 million in the 12 months to 31 March 2018.

Constant currency store sales are a leading indicator of the revenue Cooks expects to generate for new

and refurbished stores and recurring revenues, such as royalties, coffee product and other retail sales. On

a same-store basis, the total coffee store network’s constant currency store sales rose 1.1% to $33.6 million.

At the end of March 2018, store numbers stood at 93, down 5 from 98 at the same time a year ago. In the

12 months to 31 March 2018, Esquires opened a total of 18 stores, including 8 in the United Kingdom, 6 in

the Middle East, 3 in Europe and 1 in China. However, these gains were offset by the closure of 23 stores

including 12 stores in China, 5 stores in the Middle East and a total of 6 stores in other territories.

Cooks now treats its former Chinese subsidiary as an investment in an associate (with an effective stake of

21%) with effect from 1 October 2017 and equity accounts for movements in this investment from that date

onwards. Cooks continues to work through complex regulatory processes with respect to the Middle East

joint venture. The completion of which is now expected within the first half of the new financial year.

Growth in store sales and store numbers was slower than the prior year mainly due to the impact of the

restructuring of the Esquires’ Chinese and Middle East operations.

REGIONAL

PERFORMANCE

Group revenue from the UK increased 92% to $3.0 million from $1.5 million the same

time a year ago, while the region delivered an operating profit of $0.19 million, reversing

last year’s $0.73 million operating loss.

The UK Esquires business continues to lead performance across the network,

benefitting from a net increase in six stores during the year taking the total to 35. It has

also benefited from the ongoing store refurbishment programme. In the final quarter of

the year we moved to accelerate the growth in this region with the signing of a regional

master franchise for the South East of England, the first of several regional master

franchises we envisage for the country.

UNITED

KINGDOM

EUROPE

The Ireland business is now treated as part of a European region which not only

includes the Irish business but the new stores in Portugal and Romania. Group revenue

from Europe (still predominantly relating to the Irish business) increased 48% to

$0.9 million from $0.67 million the same period a year ago, while the region posted

an operating profit of $0.19 million, reversing the prior year’s $0.04 million loss. The

dramatic increase in revenue was in part assisted by franchise fees relating to Romania

and Portugal.

3

The 2018 trading period was one week shorter than the same period a year ago to show fair comparison, an adjustment to remove the impact of the extra week of trading in the

2017 financial year is used in this report.

REST OF

THE WORLD

The rest of the world segment covers the stores in the Middle East, Pakistan, Indonesia,

and Canada. Group revenue from this region decreased from $2.5 million to $1.9 million

but operating profits increased to $0.43 million from a profit of $0.23 million in the

same period a year ago. The decrease in revenue predominantly relates to New Zealand

sourced coffee sales to the Middle East and China, with reduced demand in China with

the reduction in store numbers and timing differences in ordering cycles in the Middle

East. Even after stripping out foreign currency gains the region recorded an operating

profit. The rest of the world stores reduced to 30 in total from 32 the year before.

SUPPLY AND

CORPORATE

Group revenue from the supply businesses increased 31% to $0.84 million from $0.64

million a year ago largely due to a sharp increase in sales of the climate-neutral coffee

brand Grounded. The Crux Products supply business is growing but is still yet to make a

significant contribution to the group.

Losses in the supply business increased to $0.30 million from a loss of $0.24 million in

the same period a year ago, largely reflecting the increase in marketing and distribution

costs associated with the Grounded launch. Corporate costs were contained with

operating costs narrowing from $2.2 million to $1.4 million.

BALANCE SHEET

OUTLOOK

During the year the company secured an additional $10 million in new equity from its major shareholders,

of which $3.4 million was used to repay borrowings, while the remaining $6.6 million is funding the

company’s growth.

Around $4.7 million of that sum was provided by the underwrite of the group’s share purchase plan

by entities associated with Cooks Executive Chairman Keith Jackson. As at 31 March 2018 around $1.3

million of an earlier underwrite of Mr Jackson, provided by Cooks Investment Holding Limited, has been

committed with respect to the Middle East joint venture transaction which is in the process of completing.

Cooks believes that its current operations will transition to cashflow breakeven using its existing facilities

and the as-yet undrawn capital.

“Cooks is continuing to make progress and we are confident that the steps we have taken this financial

year have set up the company to grow and transition to cashflow breakeven in the new financial year,” Mr

Jackson said. “We will provide an update at the annual meeting later this year.”

Store numbers in Ireland were static during the year at 11 stores. Network store sales

rose 12.5% from the prior year, with transactions up 10.8% and average transaction value

up 1.6%.

APPENDIX

Network (Store) Sales

Total store sales are the aggregate of sales of all Esquires branded coffee stores, whether franchised or owned, across the company’s global brand network. Cooks derives income

from its franchised stores from franchise related fees, primarily related to these sales levels as well as store sales for those stores directly owned by the company. Total network store

sales, therefore, have a correlation to the portion of revenue earned by Cooks Global Foods relating to recurring franchise fees. However, they are not and should not be confused

with the revenue of Cooks Global Foods which is reported in its financial statements as the two do not directly correlate.

Same Store Sales

Same store sales are the aggregate of all Esquires-branded coffee stores, whether franchised or owned across the company’s global brand network that have been operational for

at least a full two-year period for the purposes of like-for-like comparison between current and prior periods. The metric measures the improvement in existing store sales within the

brand network, excluding new stores opened in the previous 24 months. Same store sales are not the same as revenue in the financial statements for Cooks Global Foods group, but

can indicate stable revenue growth in the brand network.

Transactions

Transactions relate to the total individual transactions, which occur within Esquires branded coffee stores, whether franchised or owned. A transaction is defined as a single financial

transaction for food, beverage or product that is processed through the point-of-sale system within a coffee store.

Average Transaction Value

Average transaction values are derived by dividing total Esquires coffee store sales by total transactions recorded over the period.

Total (Store) network

All stores whether owned or franchised, which operate under a brand owned by companies within the Cooks Global Foods Group.
