Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 18th, 2012

2 Davy Research

Technical analysis of stocks under coverage In the following pages we review the stocks under our coverage from a technical analysis perspective. We examine the names in both absolute terms and relative to the Euro Stoxx 600 Food & Beverage sector. The food and beverage sector has been an excellent performer over the past five years and has outperformed the broader market by 170% since the end of 2007 when the first signs of the financial crisis appeared. There have been a few periods in which the sector underperformed, but most of these were short-lived. History has taught us that sectors come in and out of vogue at various points in time; for now, however, the food and beverage sector remains in an uptrend and it is hard to place large bets against it outperforming further in the medium term. In absolute terms, the names that look most interesting (note that our commentary is based purely on technicals and therefore the view may differ from our fundamental rating) are the following: Long: ARYZTA, Origin Enterprises, Fyffes Short: CSM, Carlsberg, Tate & Lyle Relative to the sector, the most interesting stocks are the following: Long: Associated British Foods, Diageo, Glanbia Short: CSM, Givaudan, Heineken Two charts in the following pages stand out as being most interesting. Origin Enterprises has in recent weeks taken out the vitally important

€4 level. This has been a significant resistance level in the past, and this move is one that should be followed. The stock may begin a charge towards its all-time high above €5.

The relative chart of Givaudan is particularly worrying. It has broken through some very significant support levels – usually a signal that further underperformance lies ahead. There could be as much as 20% more underperformance before another support level is reached.

Food & Beverage remains an excellent performer on a year-to-date basis. It has spiked hard in recent weeks and now the current move looks over-extended. Downside will not be significant, but we expect better entry points than the current price.

After a very sharp move higher earlier in the year, the current period of underperformance is hardly a surprise – there is probably another couple of percent to go.

ARYZTA trades close to a very critical level. CHF 48.88 is a previous resistance level and any move above this should be closely watched. It is in a solid uptrend and a breakout looks likely. From here, CHF 56 looks a likely target.

Relative to the Stoxx 600 Food & Beverage sector, ARYZTA looks poised to outperform further in the medium term.

The trading period since late 2011 has repaired some of the technical damage that was caused by the sharp sell-off in mid-2011. It is difficult to make a bullish upside case as the stock is pushing against some technical resistance points. The stock will remain volatile and is likely to move 20% either way depending on whether it breaks up or down. Our bias is for the latter.

CSM has been a very poor performer versus the sector for the past 15 years. It is way too early to suggest that the bottom is in place.

Kerry has coasted through all significant levels and, following its minor pullback in recent weeks, trades close to all-time highs. It remains in an uptrend and has built a very good support zone close to €34.

Kerry currently lies 5% from its all-time relative highs, suggesting that the majority of its outperformance may have happened already.

Since breaking above the important €5 mark, Glanbia has added another 34% and now trades at all- time highs. Calling the upside move from here is difficult but on the downside €6 should prove to be an initial support. Given the pace of the move, a near-term pullback should be expected.

It looks to be onwards and upwards relative to the sector with another 26% of potential outperformance before it reaches its relative highs.

Associated British Foods remains in a solid uptrend, and the recent pullback is consistent with the ongoing trend. The stock is likely to drift back towards 1240p in the near term. This should present an excellent entry point.

Relative to the sector, the picture has been mixed since 2009 but now it is shaping up for further (significant) outperformance.

It has been a particularly interesting couple of years for this chart with a number of quite spectacular breakouts since mid- 2010. The cross on the weekly MACD suggests that there may be some further short-term weakness ahead. It is well supported at €24 and, should it reach this, it would be an excellent entry point.

Despite some slight underperformance of late, its relative uptrend remains in place. We suspect that it will continue to outperform the sector in the medium term.

Despite some valiant attempts to return to its long-run uptrend, Tate & Lyle has now entered a solid downtrend. It looks likely to drift towards 600p in the first instance and perhaps 550p in an extreme bear case.

Relative to the overall sector, it is highly likely that the stock will underperform in the near term and perhaps even test its previous relative lows.

This looks very much like a 'Hold'. It is likely to drift marginally lower in absolute terms, but the downside is likely to be CHF 850 (-4.5%) from current levels.

Very worrying relative move. This is a straight 'Sell' on a relative basis as it is now breaking through some very long-established relative levels.

Breaking above €22 was the critical move in 2012, and the performance since then has been superb. The trend remains bullish, but one should be wary of the upcoming negative MACD cross.

The strong relative outperformance over the past five months looks overdone. From a technical perspective, it looks likely to underperform in the near term.

Although Frutarom is still in an uptrend, it faces some major resistance levels; for this reason, we would urge caution from a technical perspective. However, downside from here should be limited as it has spent a long period building a strong base.

Frutarom has in recent days bounced off a support level and the move from here should be closely watched, especially if it can reverse the downward trend.

Despite having some support at current levels (€50), Naturex looks set to fall further. It is in a downtrend since July 2011 and there is no sign of this reversing. An entry point in the low €40s would be more attractive.

The relative uptrend remains in place, but it is not a particularly strong one and we are not convinced that it will endure.

Origin looks very interesting now that it has broken above the very important level of €4. This was a level that it failed to break on three occasions over the past five years. €4.8 is now the logical price target and €4 will prove to be a new support zone. This breakout should be followed.

Encouragingly, Origin is also starting to break out versus the overall sector.

Fyffes last week managed to close on a weekly basis above 50c for the first time since 2008 and hence this is a very significant move. It is currently overbought and we would not rule out some consolidation at these levels. 50c should prove to be support from here with 57-60c an obvious target range.

There have been many false dawns from a relative perspective, but it does look to have built a solid base and the outperform argument from here looks solid.

Total Produce broke through 45c last week and this is an important level. It now looks likely to test its recent highs at 0.495. This may prove to be a significant task and one would expect a period of consolidation between 0.45 and 0.495.

Relative to the sector, Total Produce is showing some signs that it may be beginning a period of outperformance but it is too early to aggressively play it.

Greencore has struggled to break the 80p level but still looks well positioned to do so in the medium term. Following this, 90p is likely to cap any move higher. The downside looks well protected at 60c.

Despite a potential bottom being in place, it still remains way too early to aggressively call for outperformance versus the sector.

€3.65 remains a critical level for C&C and historically has been very important. It is now testing this level. If it can break through it, the likelihood is that it will move significantly higher. €5 is an obvious target.

C&C remains in a downtrend versus the sector and any change in this scenario should be closely watched.

We would be a seller of Carlsberg and expect it to trade down towards DKK 470 (c.8% downside). It is pushing against some significant resistance.

The relative trade has been very difficult to call over the past number of years. It has bounced off an important support level but, as of yet, we are not convinced that it will outperform significantly.

Tough to call at current levels but our preference would be to sell Heineken. It is pushing against some important resistance levels and these are likely to cap the upside. An entry point closer to €40 would be more attractive.

Although there are signs that it is building a support base, we suggest that it will underperform further.

Strong move after breaking out above the €75 level. Difficult to call from here as it is at all-time highs. Weekly MACD is signalling a sell, and perhaps we could expect a slight pullback in the near term.

This is a really nice relative chart. We would expect it to move higher from here and hence outperform.

Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 18th, 2012

Associated British Foods Sugar emerged as a key driver of the ABF story over the past three years. In 2008, it accounted for 23% of group profits; we estimate that it will

account for as much as 46% in 2012. We continue to remain positive on the Sugar division outlook given the tight demand/supply situation that exists in the European market. African trading should also benefit from increased production.

After decades of price deflation in the UK clothing market, the past two years have seen a return of inflationary pressure. Higher operating costs are one influencing factor. One can clearly see that this has had a direct impact on volumes. Primark looks to have been a winner in this environment as it has maintained strong like-for-like growth despite all the macro difficulties (note the recent contrast between Primark and Next).

Consensus estimates have remained stable in the last few months, especially for the closest forecast years; for the current year, we remain in line with consensus. For 2013, we expect a further 8% growth.

The emergence of Primark and the recovery post EU sugar regime change have allowed the stock to trade on above-average valuation levels for much of the last seven years. Interestingly, it could be beginning to break out from a ratings perspective.

On a P/E basis, the stock trades on a multiple of 13.6x, in line with its long-run average but below the loftier levels of 2006-2008.

Technically speaking, the ABF share price is in a strong uptrend; if this trend is maintained, there should be an excellent buy opportunity in the very near term.

Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 18th, 2012

Heineken Heineken has recently widened its forward P/E discount to main rivals AB InBev (ABI) and SABMiller. Heineken trades at 13.9x on a 12-month

forward P/E versus 17.0x for ABI, 17.3x for SABMiller and 12.4x for Carlsberg. This discount reflects Heineken's over-exposure to difficult Western European and US markets and the greater exposure ABI and SABMiller have to emerging markets.

H1 numbers were below consensus estimates as higher input costs and a poor summer in Europe weighed on performance. Full year guidance was maintained as a better second-half revenue performance and earlier-than-expected cost saving delivery is expected to offset increased input cost guidance for the full year (c.8% on a per hectolitre basis).

An improved performance in the Americas, highlighted by the reversal of some share losses in the key Mexican market in 2011, was positive in H1; however, Africa slowed as capacity constraints have not yet been alleviated, while the key Nigerian market suffered a 'pause'.

Concerns remain for H2 regarding the ability to achieve the necessary pricing in Europe to offset the flagged input costs. The significant wholesale business Heineken operates in Europe could see substantially negative operating leverage persist in H2 if the top line is not robust.

Away from operations, the main story in recent months has been the offer to acquire the remainder of its Asian joint venture, Asia Pacific Breweries. A key Fraser and Neave shareholder vote on September 28th will determine if Heineken's final offer has been successful. For now, the actions of a number of associated Thai companies mean that the deal's ultimate completion remains uncertain.

Indicative positive margin progression in US baked goods sector in August

FACTS: Output price rises outpace key input cost increases in US baked goods sector. ANALYSIS: Manufacturer selling prices of baked goods in the US increased at a slower rate than overall food prices in August, according to the Producer Price Index (PPI) for the month. Seasonally adjusted, the PPI for overall food rose by 0.9% month-on-month (mom); this compared with a 0.2% increase for bakery products. The unadjusted year-on-year (yoy) comparison saw a 2.4% rise in bakery products compared with a 2.0% rise for finished consumer foods overall. DAVY VIEW: The unadjusted series is the better measure of invoice value. The 2.4% yoy rise on this measure, when compared with price changes for key inputs, indicates positive margin progression for baked goods, as flour and refined sugar showed substantially lower price increases of 0.9% and 0.2% respectively, while a 5.8% price decrease yoy was recorded for shortening and cooking oils. The data point of some concern was the 9.0% yoy rise in the price of processed eggs (30.1% mom seasonally adjusted). This may be due in part to the speedy offset of rising feed costs to the egg-producing sector.

Symrise: Probi investment marks another commitment to biotechnology

Biotechnology is starting to reshape company strategy in the specialist food ingredients sector. This is apparent even in the flavour and fragrance (F&F) sector, whose origins are located in the chemicals industry of the 18th century. There is an increasing emphasis on natural, ethically sourced ingredients in the F&F sector. This is driven by consumer demand and also by the prospect of increased regulation of chemically synthesised inputs. The security and sustainability of natural raw materials are thus strained. Ingredient technology companies that offer biotech and fermentation capability (other listed ingredient companies involved in fermentation include Kerry Group, CSM, DSM, Tate & Lyle, ABF) can potentially provide efficient solutions at processing and product level. We note Symrise's recent investment in Swedish probiotics research company Probi with great interest. Although a modest cash outlay, it provides the group's first entry into cultures (other listed ingredient companies involved in cultures include Chr Hansen, Dupont, DSM, Kerry Group), specifically probiotics. The company is already stretching traditional F&F boundaries with its commitment to consumer health and cosmetic ingredient solutions that involve bio-active as well as F&F ingredients. Symrise has made several similar investments since IPO, including

another Scandinavian company, Indevex, earlier in 2012. It licensed rights to Indevex's NGC nutrition formula, which is a powder mix of all eight essential amino acids as well as fatty acids and fibres. This is a 100% natural formula. Symrise will also invest in joint R&D to develop new products. Although the scale of the Probi investment is almost small enough to ignore, we believe it could be a highly significant milestone over time. Price rating: Outperform (21/06/12). For further detail, see our research report issued September 13th.

Associated British Foods: Strong end to the year; underlying growth prospects remain positive

FACTS: ABF's full-year results will be in line with expectations. ANALYSIS: Trading performance at year-end remained strong and we remain very comfortable that mid-teen EPS growth (forecast +16.6% to 86.3p) was delivered. Net debt will be below £1.2bn, a little better than expected, helped by underlying profit growth and higher working capital inflows. Primark (32% forecast EBITA, pre-central-costs): Underlying revenue growth at Primark accelerated in the second half of the year and FY sales were 17% ahead year-on-year (+15% reported). Like-for-like sales growth was 3% for the full year, with a particularly strong performance in the UK in the last two to three months. Sales in continental Europe remained buoyant. Margins in the second half rose, as expected, given reduced cotton prices. Margin for the full year will be close to last year's levels (Davy: -10bps yoy). Store expansion continues apace. Nine new stores will be opened by the end of the fiscal year: six in Spain, one in Berlin and two in the UK. The Oxford Street East store will open on September 20th and will have 80,000 sq ft of selling space over four floors. Sugar (46% forecast EBITA, pre-central-costs): EU operations provided the strong uplift in Sugar in 2011/12. Profit will be considerably higher for the full year. Both the UK and Spain benefitted from higher-than-expected production and good pricing in the market. H2 profit at Illovo improved again with higher production and pricing. Chinese profits were lower as weaker pricing more than offset a 12.5% increase in production. Grocery (18% forecast EBITA, pre-central-costs): Trading across several parts of this division remained challenging in the second half. Although revenues were ahead yoy, operating profit declined due to a margin squeeze (Allied Bakeries) and restructuring costs (George Weston, Allied Bakeries). A £100m non-cash impairment charge has been taken against the Australian meat assets, representing approximately half of the value currently carried in

the books. Some further modest cost restructuring may be required next year. Agriculture (3% forecast EBITA, pre-central-costs): Its strong performance continued, with revenues ahead and profit in line with last year. Frontier continued to trade well with solid grain trading levels and continued high demand for fertiliser, seed and crop protection products. Ingredients (4% forecast EBITA, pre-central-costs): Although its enzyme ingredients units delivered higher sales and profits, this was more than offset by restructuring charges and tighter margins at AB Mauri (yeast, bakery ingredients). DAVY VIEW: ABF has delivered another strong year of growth and has continued to re-invest profitably across its business lines. Underlying growth prospects for 2012/13 remain positive due to solid sugar pricing conditions and Primark's expansion plans — they are hampered a little perhaps by euro weakness given its potential transaction impact on UK sugar and on the euro-denominated revenue base of Primark. We reiterate our 'Outperform' view on the stock. Price rating: Outperform (05/07/11, previously Neutral, 03/11/10).

S E P T E M B E R 6 T H

Total Produce: Defensive qualities undervalued; we reiterate our 'Outperform' stance

Despite the defensive nature of its business model, Total Produce has been overlooked in the recent re-rating of the food sector. Its consistent earnings growth, solid balance sheet and attractive cash-flow profile appear to have been ignored. Yield-hungry investors should be attracted by a sustainable dividend yield in excess of 4.5%. The company reported H1 numbers on September 4th. It increased its full-year EPS target to the top end of its previously stated range of 7-8c. We have increased our own forecasts to 7.8c (previously 7.6c). Trading conditions were difficult in the euro-zone in the first half but we anticipate an improved performance in the second half. The benefit of the group's broad geographic spread was evident in the first half. Much focus has been placed on the 2011 results, which were negatively impacted by the unprecedented E.Coli issues that impacted the fresh produce sector in Europe. This masked a strong underlying performance in the non-euro-zone segments, which recorded a stable or improving margin out-turn in all cases. The company's valuation remains undemanding across a range of metrics. For this reason, we believe that there is further upside in the stock and we reiterate our 'Outperform' stance. For further detail, see our research report issued September 6th. Price rating: Outperform (14/05/10, previously Neutral, 30/06/09).

Investment ratings definitions Davy ratings are indicators of the expected performance of the stock relative to its sector index (FTSE E300) over the next 12 months. At times, the performance might fall outside the general ranges stated below due to near-term events, market conditions, stock volatility or – in some cases – company-specific issues. Research reports and ratings should not be relied upon as individual investment advice. As always, an investor's decision to buy or sell a security must depend on individual circumstances, including existing holdings, time horizons and risk tolerance. Our ratings are based on the following parameters: Outperform: Outperforms the relevant E300 sector by 10% or more over the next 12 months. Neutral: Performs in-line with the relevant E300 sector (+/-10%) over the next 12 months. Underperform: Underperforms the relevant E300 sector by 10% or more over the next 12 months. Under Review: Rating is actively under review. Suspended: Rating is suspended until further notice. Restricted: The rating has been removed in accordance with Davy policy and/or applicable law and regulations where Davy is engaged in an investment banking transaction and in certain other circumstances.
