2015 Highlights
Subsequent Events
Xavier de Carniere, Chief Executive Officer of Feronia Inc., commented: "Against a backdrop of the toughest global palm oil market conditions in recent history, Feronia has made considerable operational progress.
"As our replanted hectares begin to mature and our producing hectares increase, so does our confidence in being able to achieve our long term objectives. This confidence is supported by the gauges on our dashboard turning green; a 25% increase in fruit production, a 29% increase in CPO production, increases in yield per hectare and oil extraction rate, a 21% increase in CPO volume sold, a new major refining customer and securing a $49 million debt facility are but a few of the indicators of the progress we are making.
"Our progress is no accident. It is down to the hard work and unwavering and precious dedication of our staff, management and two largest shareholders. There is much still to do. We must, and will, remain focused on patiently working towards our goals, including delivering on our social and environmental targets and commitments, so as to rebuild this business into the great business we all believe it will become."
