Cautionary note on forward-looking statements
This presentation and announcement entitled “2024 Results Briefing” may contain statements regarding the business of Olam Group Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) that are of a forward-looking
nature and are therefore based on management’s assumptions about future developments.
Such forward looking statements are intended to be identified by words such as ‘believe’, ‘estimate’, ‘intend’, ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘expect’, and ‘project’, and similar expressions as they relate to the Group.
Forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties because they relate to future events. Actual results may vary materially from those targeted, expected or projected due to several
factors.
Potential risks and uncertainties includes such factors as general economic conditions, foreign exchange fluctuations, interest rate changes, commodity price fluctuations and regulatory developments.
Such factors that may affect Olam Group’s future financial results are detailed in our circulars, information memorandums, information contained in this presentation, or discussed in today’s news release
and in the Management Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s and the Group’s Six Months and Full Year ended December 31, 2024 results report and filings on SGXNET. The reader and/or
listener is cautioned to not unduly rely on these forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any duty to publish any update or revision of any forward-looking statements.
Shareholders are advised to exercise caution in trading their Shares as there is no certainty or assurance as at the date of this presentation that the proposed IPO of Olam Agri and ofi and concurrent
respective demergers will proceed, as they are subject to, inter alia, approval from Olam Group shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting and future market conditions. Shareholders are advised to
read this presentation and any further announcements by the Company carefully. Shareholders should consult their stockbrokers, solicitors or other professional advisors if they have any doubts about the
action they should take.
All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this presentation are or may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include but are not limited to those using words
such as "seek", "expect", "anticipate", "estimate", "believe", "intend", "project", "plan", "strategy", "forecast" and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "would", "should",
"could", "may" and "might". These statements reflect the Company's current expectations, beliefs, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future and assumptions in light of currently available
information. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially
from those described in such forward-looking statements. Shareholders and investors of the Company should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, and the Company does not
undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements.

Olam Group to sell its remaining 19.99% stake in Olam Agri to SALIC (“Tranche 2”) at the end of
three years from completion of the sale of Tranche 1 at the Closing Valuation plus 6% IRR.
Sale of Tranche 1 and 2 would raise estimated total gross proceeds of US$2.58 billion (S$3.41

business conditions before making any decision on the use of the proceeds, which may include
