Alliance Select Holds 2023 Annual Meeting

Background/Description of the Disclosure

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – At the Company’s Annual Stockholders’ Meeting held virtually today, Alliance Select Foods International, Inc. (“ASFII” or the “Company”; PSE: FOOD) President and CEO Jeoffrey P. Yulo reported that the ASFII Parent’s 2022 volume grew by 14% and revenue by 6% compared to 2021. The growth was driven by sales generated with new and revived old customers. There was a marked increase in the volume of pouched tuna exported to Europe and Japan, as well as an expanded customer base for frozen loins, fishmeal and fish oil products.

The Company’s increased production volume led to a 14% improvement in plant utilization, while better cost management lowered manufacturing expenses by 19%, and labor cost by 20%.

The group’s administrative expenses improved by 39% or by US$2.2mn, while finance costs improved by 46% or by US$0.3mn from 2021, as the Company tightened controls and pre-terminated higher-interest loans.

Group net revenues of US$34.6mn reduced by 15% from 2021 due to the sale of the Company’s Akaroa subsidiary in November 2021. Without the effect of Akaroa operations in 2021, 2022 revenue actually improved by 5.1% or by US$ 1.7mn from 2021.

Q1 2023 performance is well positioned for a turn-around. However, poor tuna catch and the resulting global upsurge in fish prices reduced the Company’s margins.

“We are expanding our customer base, generating new income streams and steadily improving our manufacturing process,” said Yulo who anticipates an improved fish supply and better raw material price in H2 2023. “We will continue to build on the momentum of last year’s H2 growth.”
