require in evaluating a possible investment in the Company or that would be required

in a product disclosure statement for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct

Act 2013 (FMCA). The Company is subject to disclosure obligations that require it to

notify certain material information to NZX Limited (NZX) and ASX Limited (ASX). This

presentation should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements

5

for Australia’s high-quality beef.

6

•Value of sheep meat exports expected to remain high in 2023-

environment.
