JSE share code: RCL

Annexure to the results announcement

By eliminating the impact of the corporate transactions, the Group's attributable profit to 
equity holders of the company improves from the published loss of R289,0 million to a pro forma
profit of R428,4 million with an earnings per share of 50,2 cents.

INTRODUCTION
During the current financial year RCL Foods concluded
significant corporate transactions, certain of which had
a material impact on the published results which are
listed below:
   
-  Acquired 100% of the issued ordinary shares in
   TSB Sugar RSA Proprietary Limited and TSB Sugar
   International Proprietary Limited (collectively referred
   to as "TSB") from TSB Holdings ("TSB Transaction")

-  Restructured the existing BEE notional vendor
   financed shareholding and implemented a new BEE
   transaction ("BEE Transaction")

-  Raised R790,2 million in a pro-rata minority share
   offer ("Pro rata share issue")

-  Redeemed Foodcorp's Euro-denominated Senior
   Secured Notes ("SSN's") in November 2013 and
   April 2014 through cash and new rand-based debt
   ("Foodcorp financing activities")

-  Acquired the remaining 35,82% minority
   interest in  New Foodcorp  Holdings
   Proprietary Limited ("Foodcorp") in two
   transactions from Foodcorp management
   (1 July 2013) and Capitau Investment Advisers
   Proprietary Limited ("Capitau") (6 September 2013)
   for a total consideration of R520,7 million 
   ("Foodcorp minority buyout").

RCL Foods has consequently published the pro forma
financial information below that aims to provide
shareholders with a better understanding of the
underlying financial performance of the Group through
the inclusion of a full year impact of the corporate
transactions and the elimination of once-off charges
related to corporate transactions.The pro forma financial
information is the responsibility of the directors and has
been prepared for illustrative purposes only and due to
its nature may not fairly present the Group's income
statement. The pro forma financial information refers
only to past events and does not contain any forward
looking projections. PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. have
reported on the pro forma financial information which
report is available for inspection at the registered office
of RCL Foods.

The pro forma financial information, assuming an
effective date of the transactions being 30 June 2013,
effectively presents the following:

   TSB Transaction:

-  Inclusion of the full year results of TSB
   
   BEE Transaction: 

-  Exclusion of the current year BEE expenses relating
   to the old BEE scheme (including the once-off
   acceleration charge of R14,2 million)

-  Exclusion of the once-off expenses relating to the new
   BEE scheme

-  Inclusion of the recurring IFRS 2 charge for a
   12-month period relating to the new BEE scheme
   
   Transaction costs:  

-  Exclusion of all transaction costs associated with the
   corporate transactions
   
   Pro rata share issue:

-  Inclusion of the finance income for the full year in
   respect the cash received from the new shares issued

   Foodcorp financing activities: 

-  Exclusion of the current year effects of Foodcorp's
   Euro denominated debt which removes the impact
   of interest on the Euro denominated debt, foreign
   currency losses and the bond redemption gain

-  Inclusion of finance expense related to the
   replacement rand based debt for a full 12 months
   
   Foodcorp minority buyout:

-  Exclusion of finance income earned on the cash
   utilised to settle the acquisition of shares from
   Capitau
   
-  Exclusion of the finance costs and the gain on the
   settlement of the preference shares
    
-  Reversal of the loss attributable to minorities in
   Foodcorp

The impact of the investment in Senn Foods Logistics
(Pty) Limited and Zamhatch Ltd has not been taken into
account as the impact is considered to be immaterial.

The elimination of corporate transaction costs (R27,4 million), 
the BEE expenses relating to the old BEE scheme (R16,1 million),
the once -off BEE expense relating to the new BEE scheme (R88,5 million)
and the NCI relating to the Foodcorp minority buy-out (R7,4 million) is 
contrary to IFRS as this effectively removes the amounts from the
pro-forma information. However in terms of the JSE guidance letters of 
March 2010-Presentation of pro forma financial information and 
August 2012-Presentation of constant currency information the non-application
of IFRS in the context of pro formas on a voluntary basis to accompany 
results is not prohibited.

NOTES
1. The pro forma consolidated income statement was prepared on
   the assumption that the TSB Transaction, the BEE Transaction,
   the Transaction costs, the Pro rata share issue, the Foodcorp
   financing activities and Foodcorp minority buyout occurred on
   30 June 2013.
   
2. The consolidated income statement of RCL Foods Limited was
   extracted from its audited financial statements for the year
   ended 30 June 2014.

TSB Transaction
The effective date of the TSB Transaction was 1 January 2014. The
effects below seek to demonstrate the impact of consolidating
TSB's results for a 12-month period. The consolidation of TSB will
be recurring.
    
3. The consolidated income statement of TSB Sugar was extracted
   from its audited financial statements for the period 1 July 2013
   to 31 December 2013.
 
4. Inter-company sales between Foodcorp and TSB for the period
   1 July 2013 to 31 December 2013 have been reversed.

BEE transaction
The effective date of the new BEE Transaction and the cancellation
of the old BEE scheme was 17 January 2014. The Group's income
statement includes the effect of the once-off charges related to
the cancellation of the old scheme (non-recurring), the once-off
charges related to the Strategic Partners' equity holding (non-
recurring) and a portion of the charges related to the employee
portion (recurring) of the new BEE Scheme. The effects below seek
to demonstrate the impact of excluding the non-recurring expenses
related to the BEE Transaction and including a full year's effect of
the recurring charge relating to the new BEE Scheme.
    
5. All BEE expenses (relating to the new and old scheme) included
   in the Group results have been reversed.
   
6. The recurring employee portion expense, relating to the new
   scheme, for the 12-month period has been included. The
   valuation assumptions are consistent with those used in the
   RCL Foods Limited audited financial statements.

Transaction costs
The transaction costs related to the corporate transactions are
once-off and the effect below seeks to demonstrate the impact of
excluding the non-recurring expense.

7. Transaction costs relating to the corporate transactions have
   been reversed.

Pro-rata share issue
The cash inflow from the pro-rata share issue occurred on
10 February 2014. The interest earned on the cash is expected to
be recurring. The effects below seek to demonstrate the impact of
receiving the cash on 30 June 2013.

8. Interest earned on the cash received from the pro rata share
   issue for the period 1 July 2013 to 10 February 2014, at an
   average rate of 5,15% has been included.

Foodcorp financing activities
The Foodcorp Euro-denominated debt was settled during the year
by utilising funds obtained from a rand-denominated bridging loan
and existing financial resources. The Euro-denominated debt was
settled in November 2013 (10%) and April 2014 (remaining 90%).
The bridging loan was obtained in April 2014. The effects below
seek to demonstrate the impact of replacing the SSN's with the
bridging loan for the full year. The expenses related to the SSN's
are considered once-off and the expense related to the bridging
loan is considered recurring until such time that the bridging loan
is repaid.
     
9. Allfinance costs (including foreign exchange losses and the
   profit on the extinguishment of debt) currently included in the
   Group results relating to the SSN's have been reversed.

10. The interest relating to cash utilised in settling the SSN's for
    the period from 1 July 2013 to the date of redemption has
    been calculated at a rate of 5,15% and deducted from finance
    income.
 
11. Interest relating to the bridging loan has been calculated
    at a rate of JIBAR plus a margin of 1,65% for the period
    1 July 2013 to 9 April 2014 and added to finance costs.

Foodcorp minority buy out
The Foodcorp management buyout was effective 1 July 2013 and
consequently the impact of the transaction is fully recognised
in the consolidated results for the year. The transaction with
Capitau and the settlement of the related preference shares
were effective 6 September 2013. From this date, RCL Foods
held a 100% interest in Foodcorp and no preference share debt.
The effect below demonstrates the impact of reversing the non-
recurring expense as well as demonstrates the impact of assuming
that the cash outflow related to the transactions occurred on
30 June 2013.

12. Interest on the cash utilised to settle the transaction with
    Capitau and the settlement of the preference shares for the
    period from 1 July 2013 to 6 September 2013 has been
    calculated at a rate of 5,15% and deducted from finance
    income.
 
13. The preference share finance costs have been added back and
    the profit on the settlement of the preference shares has been
    deducted.
     
14. The full non-controlling interest ("NCI") charge for Foodcorp
    relating to period 1 July 2013 to 6 September 2013 has been
    reversed.

Weighted average ordinary shares and diluted weighted
average ordinary shares 

15. The shares issued in respect of the TSB acquisition occurred on
    17 January 2014. The shares issued for the pro rata minority
    offer occurred on 10 February 2014. The effects demonstrate
    the impact of the assumption that the shares were issued for
    the full year.
     
16. The dilutive impact of the share options issued in terms of the
    employee share schemes amounts to 2 340 000 and is taken
    into account in determining the diluted EPS as the pro forma
    adjustments result in a pro forma profit for the year.

Diluted earnings per share

17. Dilutive earnings per share has been updated for the impact of
the above transactions.
