Theclarity and single-minded pursuit of strategy has beenthe uriderpinning strength of the business, and theBoard has revalidated our long-term growth targetwith milestones in the context of opportunities in thegrowing Nigerian market and the West African sub-region. Our capital expenditure plan has beensustained ond we are delighted to report that theseinvestments are yielding positive results.

Investing in tomorrow's leaders

Other new products in the canfectionery rangeinclude Ahomka Ginger, and Take 5, both designedand developed locally to suit the preference ofNigerians and sold under the Halls brand name whichcame to us following the acquisition of AdamsConfectionery by Cadbury Schweppes during 2003.The adaptation of an international brand name forlocally developed products is another example of oursmart variety offering. Both functional candies conformto our philosophy of offering consumers real value theycan experience. More new products are in the pipeline,

Our profit distribution policy has been consistentlydesigned to ensure a balance between the need ofshareowners for healthy returns and the imperative toinvest in the future prasperity and integrity of the business.In this we have an uncompromising desire to safeguardthe long term securityof future cash flows forthe benefit afthe investng public.

Cad bury Nigeria has more than tripled shareholders'investment over the lastfour years, delivering annual totalshareholder retums of 55%.

BusinessPerformanceSales revenue grew 28% to N20.6 billion, driven bysignificant volume growth of the lecd brands ecch ofwhich holds rnorket lecdership positions. Mar~ins havebeen well preserved in spite of the escalation in inflationrate and, with the bulk of imports originating from the eurazone, the adverse impact of a strong euro against thereference US Dollar. The exchange rate drawback waspartly offset by the gains to Stanmarl<on exparts trade, aswell as the benefit of the export expansion grant fromgovemment. Efficiency gains have helped cushion thecost escalation. However the indirect cost increase wassuch that could not be completely recovered, and thehigher depreciation charge due to increased assetsmade Operating Profit grawth at 20% slower than salesrevenue growth.

Underlying earnings per share at 358 kobo were19.3% up on last year, and the Capital Marketrewarded the Cadbury stock which almost doubledin price during the year.

Financial SummaryThe details of the financial performance arediscussed extensively in the body of the report. Thepre-tax profit return on sales has been preserved at19% in spite of cast escalation, which underscores theinherent soundness of the business model. Gross

profit as a percentage of sales also closed at 32.3%.Growth of Gross Profit and Pre-tax Profit over theprevious yearwas 22.9% and 19.7% respectively.

The sustained profitability derives from betterdeployment of assets and the sustained benefit ofworking capital reduction. The increasing level ofautomation accords with our quality commitment,which demands reducing physical handling of productIn the manufacturing process. The capacity of ourpeople to assimilate degrees of complexity andtechnology has been mostencouroging.

DividendThe Board has recommended a dividend ofNl,313,603,310.25 or N1.75 per share, up fromN 1.50 last year, as well as a Scrip Issue of one new sharefor every three held as at close of the register. Theconsistency in Our distribution policy enables us to assuresustainability, while guaranteeing healthy track record ofreturns to shareholders. The Total Shoreholder Return(TSR)for the four-year period to 2003 came to 55% perannum, way ahead of the industry and sector averagesof 28% and 39% respectively.

The Board

Further steps have been taken to strengthen the Boardand raise its performance and governance standards.

CADBURY Annual Report 2003

Cadbury Schweppes PicI reported the acquisition of Adams Confectioneryby Cad bury Schweppes lost year, making Cad burySchweppes the global leader in Confectionery. Thatacquisition has made leading brands and theirassocioted technologies available for developmentin Nigeria, and I am pleased that your company isalready exploiting this opportunity. Furthermore, thereorganization of the Cad bury Schweppes businessregions, management structure and reporting linesresulted in the consolidation of major regionaloperating units from nine to five namely AmericasBeverages; Americas Confectionery; Europe,Middle East and Africa (EMEA); Europe Beveragesand Asia Pacific. Cadbury Nigeria, as part of theAfrica Middle East community, is grouped in EMEA.This has also enhanced the access to technologiesand support needed for the extensive expansionprogramme we have undertaken.

RegistrarsI am pleased to note that Union Bank Registrars havelived up to the high expectationsof shareholdersand, sincetaking over the register lastyecr, have provided the servicesto satisfactory standards. We always appreciate thefeedback from shareholders on their experiences as suchinfomnationhelpsusimprovethe servicelevelevenfurther.

Our forecast for 2004 maintains the huge strides wehave achieved in the last few years. We projectacceleration)n the pace of growth driven by thestrength Bt5'ur brands, the robustness of our businessmodel, the dedication of our people, and above allthe grace of the Almighty. Our projection is also areflection of the view that the economic environmentwill progressively improve as Government pursuesthe path of liberalization, deregulation andwithdrawal from the commanding heights ofeconomic activity. This is the only path to truly pavingthe way for private investment, job and wealth'erection, as well as real growth. Clearly we now muststay the course in restructuring the economy in amanner thot grows the non-oil sector, liberates theenergies ofthe Nigerian people and makes them moreeconomically active. A relentless drive to strengthen theformal pracesses, build modern governance systemsand achieve a better coordination between fiscal andmonetary policies will help promote a gradualmigration from the informal sector to the formal and amore healthy social structure. It is important thatgovernment's agenda to steer the economy awayfram the current commodity trap is sustained.This will require conscious steps to diversify theeconomy, and a sustained investment in human capitaldevelopment.

Looking ahead2004 has started satisfactorily despite the veryfamiliar challenges that face the manufacturingindustry, as well as the wider global issues thatimpact on economies in the developing world. Thehigh cost profile in the industry remains a continuingchallenge, especially with respect to infrastructureand tariffs.
