Corporate Bonds Whether the company has corporate bonds that have been publicly issued and listed on the stock exchange, and not yet due or due but failed to pay as of the date of the approval of this Semi-Annual Report by the Board of Directors. No. III. Performance Discussion and Analysis 1. Business Operation summary in the reporting period Whether the company needs to comply with the disclosure requirements of certain industry No Significant precipitation in North America in the first quarter followed by unprecedented flooding in the second quarter, alongside extreme dry weather in Europe, India and parts of Asia-Pacific, delayed and reduced application of crop protection products in these regions. Latin America benefited from relatively strong demand in the southern hemisphere off-season. India’s monsoon season started late in the second quarter, delaying the sowing of several summer-planted crops. Crop prices have generally remained subdued in the first half of 2019, with the exception of corn, which continues to challenge farmer income in most regions, resulting in continued sluggish demand for crop protection products. The sustained supply-constrained environment, mostly owing to increased environmental focus in China, has seen continued industry-wide shortages in certain raw materials and intermediates, and resulted in procurement costs remaining elevated compared to the first half of last year. The Company continues to raise its prices in all regions and contain its manufacturing and other operating costs to mitigate this impact. For ADAMA, the extended cold and wet conditions in North America, alongside dry weather in Europe, India and parts of Asia-Pacific, delayed and reduced application of crop protection products, while continued tight supply conditions prevented the Company from taking advantage of demand for certain products. Strong growth in Latin America, led by Brazil, as well as resilient performance in APAC, notably Australia, alongside the contribution of joiners Bonide and Anpon, partially offset these weather- and supply-related delays. In China, continued strong demand for the Company’s differentiated, formulated and branded products is supporting the shift towards sales through its own channels and away from sales of unformulated, technical active 3 Abstract of 2019 Semi-Annual Report ingredients to intermediaries. The Company continues to drive growth with new launches of differentiated product throughout all regions. The continued supportive pricing environment allowed for the raising of prices by an average of 3% across all regions, passing on some of the impact of the constrained supply and higher procurement costs, while mitigating the impact of generally softer currencies. In addition, the Company continues to contain its manufacturing and other operating costs, while recording idleness costs at Jingzhou old site. Looking toward the second half of the year, the Company expects robust growth, as the southern hemisphere regions, which are performing strongly, move into their peak season, as the Monsoon season progresses in India, and as supply constraints start alleviating. Increasing collaboration activities The Company continues to advance collaboration opportunities with other ChemChina group entities, as well as other entities of the Sinochem group, to make the most of its positioning. Jingzhou Old Site Following resumption of operations at the Jingzhou old site in late March, the Company is advancing the gradual ramp-up of production. The new state-of-the-art wastewater treatment facility is operational, and the upgraded biological-decomposition systems are being acclimated to the improved wastewater quality. As this progresses, the Company is still experiencing constrained supply in key products manufactured at the site, especially impacting the Americas, Asia-Pacific, China and India, Middle-East and Africa, constraining sales and gross profit by approximately $100 million and $35 million, respectively, in the half-year, and recorded approximately $20 million in related idleness costs during the period, bringing the impact from the disruption on EBITDA to approximately $50 million and on Net Income to approximately $40 million. In recent weeks, the Ecological Protection Supervision Team of the central government commenced on-site inspections at many ChemChina’s group companies, including the Company’s sites in China, as part of its strengthening ongoing environmental and safety focus. ADAMA is working in full cooperation, in the context of its 3-year relocation and upgrade process which is due to conclude next year, to identify and rectify any safety or environmental matter. Notwithstanding that the old site only produces a small number of products for the group, and the fact that ADAMA has significant production and procurement capabilities elsewhere in China and worldwide ,the suspension has had a negative impact on the Company’s performance as described above.
