¹	DMPL's fiscal year ends in April in line with its USA subsidiary Del Monte Foods, Inc.
²	DMPL adopted amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 (Agriculture: Bearer Plants in April 2017). The change in accounting standard was applied retrospectively. This involved reclassifying a portion of biological assets to plant, property and equipment leading to much higher depreciation expense. However, for EBITDA calculation, the Group retained the old calculation using the lower depreciation for comparability.
³	The profitability of the Group from CY2013-FY2019 had been impacted by non-recurring items mostly in the USA. Please refer to the Operating and Financial Review section of the Annual Report for more details.
⁴	EPS is calculated as earnings after preference share dividends resulting in a negative figure for FY2018-2019.
⁵	DMPL ordinary shares were listed on 2 August 1999 on the Singapore Exchange and on 10 June 2013 on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE). Singapore share prices are converted to US cents for the purpose of computing financial ratios. DMPL did a 2:10 Bonus Issue with ex-date of 9 April 2013. It also did a Rights Issue in March 2015. New shares issued resulted in a 33% dilution.
⁶	Preference Shares started trading on the PSE on 7 April 2017 for Series A-1 and on 15 December 2017 for Series A-2.
7	Based on fiscal yearend prices, ie 30 April.
