Summarised Financial Report

for the nine months ended

31st December 2021

SHALIMAR (MALAY) PLC

Review of operations for the period ended 31st December 2021

The main business of the Company is the minority equity investments it holds in Shalimar Developments Sdn. Bhd. (SDSB) and in Shalimar (Malay) PLC (SMPLC). SDSB's investee company carries out palm oil plantation operations in Indonesia.

The investee company has been taking several measures to ensure uninterrupted business operations in the midst of the relentless COVID-19 pandemic. On a positive note, the Crude Palm Oil prices (CPO) have continued to trade at higher levels during the quarter under review, partly impacted by the duty on CPO sales introduced by the Indonesian government in Dec 2020 to support its bio-diesel mandate. In the backdrop of these industry and economic challenges, the company is cautiously preserving its liquidity position to ensure it remains strong and resilient.

The Company received dividends from its equity investments in the period under review. Further, the Company earned interest income from its short-term deposits in Sri Lanka, the rate of which has declined sharply following the pandemic outbreak. Accordingly, the Company recorded an after tax profit of Rs. 20.12 Mn from its operations during the period under review; compared to a profit of Rs 0.36 Mn recorded in the corresponding period of the previous financial year.

Interim Dividend

The Company received a dividend from its investment in SDSB in July 2021 and consequently declared an interim dividend of Rs 8.90 per share to the shareholders for the year ending 31st March 2022. This was paid to the shareholders in July 2021.

Minimum Public Holding

As previously informed, the Company is not in compliance with the minimum public holding requirements in relation to a Company Listed on the Main Board of the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) as per Rule 7.13.1 (a) of the Listing Rules of CSE, due to which the Company was transferred to the 'Watch List' of the CSE in terms of Rule 7.13.2 (b) of the previous Listing Rules of the CSE with effect from 2nd July 2018.

However, the CSE via their Circular No. 03/2019 dated 3rd October 2019 amended the Listing Rules on enforcement actions applicable for non-compliance with minimum public holding requirements with effect from 12th September 2019. Accordingly, in terms of Rule 7.13.2 of the Listing Rules of the CSE, the company was transferred to the Second Board with effect from 15th November 2019.

We wish to highlight that the objective of the voluntary offer made to all shareholders on 17th March 2011 was to acquire the entire minority shareholding as a step towards the consolidation of the oil palm plantation business. The offer documents also mentioned that upon completion of the voluntary offer, the rational for remaining listed will be evaluated. Since the voluntary offer did not result in the acquisition of the entire minority shareholding, the Company continued to remain listed.

Taking into consideration that a voluntary offer had been made and also considering that there is no requirement for additional capital infusion to the Company and resultantly, there being no plans for issuing of new shares nor a dilution by the majority shareholder and as previously communicated to shareholders through market disclosures and Annual Reports and in terms of the revised Listing Rules, we will report the proposed course of action.
