Financial Review – article dated 30 August 2013

"These guys own 2440 hectares of Indian sandalwood plantations. If the prices remain constant, they're going to generate nearly $2 billion of operating profit over the next 15 years. It's the most interesting deep value story that I'm aware of," Mr Michell said.

First commercial harvest

The first harvest is expected to commence in September 2013

The harvest will consist of approximately 144ha, planted in 1999 and 2000, forming part of the company’s initial sandalwood projects entitled East Kimberley Sandalwood Project No.1 and TFS Sandalwood Project No. 2

While initial yields will be much lower than originally forecast in 1998 in the EKS prospectus, pricing to be achieved is expected to be considerably higher than forecast

All plantations subsequent to the initial EKS and TFS 2 plantations (144ha) have significantly higher survival rates and will have higher yields (see graph on page 17).

TFS Sandalwood Primary Processing Centre (“PPC”)

― TFS has acquired approximately $600k on capital equipment for use in the harvest

― TFS staff have been deployed and trained in the area and ready to commence operations

― PPC is on track to be commissioned for the 3 September start date

― PPC produces cleaned logs ready for wood export or oil distillation

TFS exploiting its first mover advantage with first commercial harvest on track

Survival rates and expected heartwood yield

Survival rates and expected heartwood yields have steadily increased over the history of our plantations, as depicted in the following worksheet. The majority of mortality occurs within the first 2 years of planting. This survival enhancement demonstrates how TFS has refined and improved its intellectual property and silvicultural techniques over time. It also demonstrates the embedded value of our plantations to TFS shareholders, MIS growers, and Beyond Carbon investors.
