x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Good points ....but u must also note that the $$ from the sale of primary department are also put back into a new line ( if I recall ) and expansion into  its bread business .    Not much full detail on this except about those expansion .  ANYONE ...can advise when is the 2c dividend payout for the primary department sale ????    ( the amount was confirmed but NO date on the actual  distribution of this 2c ) ....thanks    PandaB      ( Date: 12-Aug-2021 12:55) Posted: This half year' s result seems to indicate that there are some headwinds ahead. Last year was clearly a banner year for QAF' s bakery department, an exception rather than the norm. Looking ahead, the margins from the bakery segment has already fallen from 20% to 14%. Besides, flour prices have also been steadily increasing.  The irony of the situation for QAF is that the primary production department which they were so keen to dispose off is the majority contributor for the EPS this half year. So if you strip away that result (and future EPS from the ppd) and the eventual sales proceed, 5c annual dividend may actually be a challenge to maintain in the future.

The Primary Production business is classified as a disposal group held for sale in the financial statements of QAF Group for FY2020 and no longer falls within the description of an existing core business. The Group&rsquo s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hamsdale International Pte Ltd and Oxdale Investments Pte Ltd (the " Vendors" ), have agreed to sell the entire issued share capital of Rivalea Holdings Pty Ltd (" Rivalea Holdings" ) and Oxdale Dairy Enterprise Pty Ltd (" Oxdale" ) (collectively, the " Sale Shares" ) to Industry Park Pty Ltd (the " Purchaser" ), subject to the terms and conditions of the SPA. The indicative aggregate purchase price for the Sale Shares is to be satisfied entirely in cash and, as at the date hereof, is estimated at approximately A$107.9 million (equivalent to approximately S$110.3 million) (the " Indicative Purchase Price" )1 . Shareholder loans extended by the QAF Group to the Primary Production business (amounting to approximately A$40.0 million (equivalent to approximately S$40.9 million)) will be fully repaid on completion of the sale. Together with the Indicative Purchase Price, QAF Group will, subject to and on completion, receive estimated total cash of A$148.1 million (equivalent to approximately S$151.3 million). Please see Section 4.2 below for further information. Rivalea Holdings owns two subsidiaries incorporated in Australia, namely, Rivalea (Australia) Pty Ltd (held as to 100%) and Diamond Valley Pork Pty Ltd (held as to 80%) (together with Rivalea Holdings and Oxdale, the " Target Group" and each, a " Target Group Company" ). QAF total dividend for this year is 7c....which is 7% yield for 2021......wow not bad at all .  Looking forward to their new plant in Phillipine .

The licensing fee for the renewed term will remain unchanged at 1.5% of the gross sales of each approved bakery, and the existing cap of maximum gross sales of RM800 million for each financial year  shall cease to apply. The gross sales of the approved bakeries for FY2019 amounted to approximately RM1.03 billion. Based on the existing licensing fee applicable which includes the Gross Sales Cap, the licensing fee for FY2019 was RM12 million (approximately S$4 million). Assuming the Renewed Licence Fee had been applicable at the beginning of FY2019, the licensing fee for FY2019 would have amounted to RM15.5 million (approximately S$5.1 million). With the removal of the Gross Sales Cap, the contribution from GBKL would be lowered, arising from the higher licensing fees required to be paid by GBKL to the Company. The net financial effects on EPS and NTA for the current financial year are not expected to be material. Nothing herein is indicative of the actual financial effects of the revised arrangement on the Group or of the future actual financial performance of the Group. In line with the above extension of the Licensing Agreement, the shareholders&rsquo agreement between the QAF Group and its joint venture partner has been varied to provide for an extension of the date by which the parties are to work towards a listing for GBKL, namely, by March 2028, instead of the original date in April 2026. In this connection, the revised shareholders&rsquo agreement provides, inter alia, that if such listing cannot be achieved by March 2028 by reason of any shareholder not providing the requisite co-operation, the non-defaulting shareholder may purchase the other shareholder&rsquo s shares in GBKL at the fair value of such shares. In the event such sale and purchase is not completed under certain circumstance(s), GBKL shall be wound-up.  By Order of the Board Serene Yeo Company Secretary 21 July 202
