The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards including IAS 41 - Agriculture.

During the first six months of the year our tea operations recorded a small
operating loss due primarily to the drought experienced in Nandi Hills in late
2005 and early 2006.  Our canned pineapple joint venture with Del Monte Kenya
Limited also reported a significant loss.  However our cattle, forestry, citrus
and fresh pineapple operations all made positive contributions.  We expect
avocados to again generate good profits in 2006, but these profits will only
accrue during the second half of the year.

In view of the loss we are reporting for the first six months of the year, the
Directors do not recommend the payment of an interim dividend.
