Development

ownership structure

At year end 2016, the cooperative FromFarmers had a direct stake in ForFarmers of 20.8% and a controlled stake of 59.4%¹)

The directly controlled stake of 20.8% will be reduced to approximately 17.5%, allocating the last final tranche of equity to

individual members mid 2017

The allocated equity is held by individual members in the form of a position on Participation Accounts (PAs) or in Depositary

Receipts (DRs), which were tradable on a Multilateral Trading Facility until 23 May 2016

Since the listing of ForFarmers on Euronext Amsterdam on 24 May 2016, PAs and DRs can no longer be traded. Holders of PAs and

DRs can convert their positions into Shares at their full discretion and without involvement of ForFarmers or FromFarmers.

Third parties held 34.7% as at year end 2016.

Average daily traded volume more than tripled (from approx. 40,000 per day on trading platform) on Euronext Amsterdam

(**??on the basis of double counting??)

1) This consists of 20.8% direct control Shares, 32.5% Shares for which Participation Accounts have been issued) and 6.1% voting instructions on the Depositary Receipts of members (as per 31/12/2016). In addition, FromFarmers can also give voting instructions in relation to DRs which are held by others than members

• Volatility in raw material prices and on currency markets difficult to predict

• Devaluation Pound sterling affects consolidated results

• Demand for dairy products: continued steady growth

• Swine prices have started limited decline from historically high levels: - increase international competition for European export market - growth Chinese swine production

• Increasing demand for poultry

• 2H 2017 expected to show lower percentage growth underlying EBITDA than solid increase in 1H 2017: - Vleuten-Steijn: contribution of one quarter instead of two (acquisition date October 2016) - 2H 2017 impact phosphate measures (per 1-03-2017) in NL likely larger than in 1H 2017, but on annual basis likely lower than earlier pronounced 5% negative impact on NL dairy volumes - Uncertainty UK farmers over Brexit, size of cattle and swine herds not yet recovered; our recovery in UK taking longer than planned - Fipronil case poultry (NL): volume in NL and B expected to be impacted; at this moment expectation is marginal volume impact on group level

• Reconfirmation guidance: for the medium term an on average annual underlying EBITDA growth in the mid single digits at constant currencies, barring unforeseen circumstances

• Confirmation full use of authorised amount (€60 million) share buy-back programme
