‌INVESTMENT CASE

Ingredient №1

Vertically integrated business

Ingredient №3

Product and geographic diversification

ingredients for shareholder return growth

03 04

Ingredient №4

Domestic market leadership and

broad export potential

Rusagro Group's assets are spread over 15 regions of the Russian Federation, and its four business segments provide products in both the B2B and B2C markets. Major food producers in Russia and abroad recognise us as a reliable partner, and thousands of customers choose our products available on store shelves.

We hold leading positions in the key sectors of Rusagro Group's presence in Russia,

with foreign markets accounting for about one-third of sales, and enjoy a capacity for the export fiow to grow even more.

Ingredient №1

VERTICALLY INTEGRATED BUSINESS

Vertical integration lies at the heart of the Rusagro Group business model. The Sugar, Meat, and Oil and Fats Businesses run fully integrated production, while the Agriculture Business provides them with the necessary raw materials.

By streamlining the raw material supply chain and improving quality control throughout the production process, as well as by integrating production, marketing, and logistics expenses, this business structure lowers production costs and increases Rusagro Group's competitiveness. Among other things,

the vertically integrated model allows us to accumulate margins within Group Rusagro during the periods of fiuctuation in prices for raw materials and finished products.

Production chain

The entire beet crop grown is sent

to the Company's Sugar Business. The fields' proximity to the production facilities reduces the cost of transportation and logistics.

Beet processing produces by-products such as pulp, molasses, raffinate, betaine and filter cake. The pulp and betaine are exported, filter cake is used as fertiliser, and molasses

is subject to the desugarisation process to extract additional sugar. Sugar and

cereals are marketed under in-house brands. Furthermore, sugar is used by the combined Oil and Fats segment in some sauce recipes.

Some of the grain grown by the Company is sent to feed mills of the Meat Business.

The breeding facility rears young animals and improves pig breeds, while the reproduction facility produces fattening pigs and replacement pigs for herd renewal. The meat processing plant produces finished products which are sold under in-house brand. Waste products are processed further into feed, thus closing the production cycle.

The Oil and Fats Business uses soya and sunfiower seeds supplied by the Agriculture Business to make oil. The oil is then sold

in bulk to third-party companies and is used at Rusagro Group's oil and fats plants

to produce own branded products. Part

of the meal, which is a by-product of the oil extraction process, is used as pig feed

in the Meat Business. Industrial fats are used to produce spreads, sauces, cheese products, and soaps.

Other Rusagro Group facilities also produce pasta products. Dairy plants produce dairy products such as whey powder, cheese, butter and cream.

PRODUCT AND GEOGRAPHIC DIVERSIFICATION

Ingredient №3

In addition to providing prospects for business expansion, broad geographic and product diversification enables the Company

to optimise sales and logistics while accounting for regional demand for specific product categories. Though Rusagro Group is primarily a raw materials company, with about 75% of its sales coming from the B2B segment, it implements projects to grow

the B2C segment and expands the range of products, thus allowing for the addition of more marginal goods to the sales portfolio.

Rusagro Group's assets are located in 15 regions of the Russian Federation, namely, the Belgorod, Tambov, Voronezh, Kursk, Orel, Sverdlovsk, Samara, Ulyanovsk, Saratov, Orenburg,

Nizhny Novgorod, Volgograd, Tula Regions, the Republic of Bashkortostan, and Primorsky Territory. The Company

is headquartered in the Tambov Region, with a separate division in Moscow.

RUSAGRO GROUP. ANNUAL REPORT 2024 STRATEGIC REPORT
30

STATEMENT FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Respected shareholders and partners,

We are delighted to present a detailed report

on the 2024 performance of one of Russia's largest agricultural holdings, Rusagro Group PJSC. Last year, Rusagro Group's team focused on attracting Russian investors and creating value through the realisation of key strategic priorities.

A fiexible vertically integrated business model and a holistic approach to developing the investment programme

in each of Rusagro Group's business segments allowed us to enjoy strong financial results. Over the last five years, the Company's revenue has grown 2.2-fold to RUB 340 billion, while its EBITDA has doubled to RUB 53 billion.

Timur Lipatov

Chief Executive Officer of Rusagro Group LLC

In 2024, Rusagro Group's capital investments totalled RUB 30 billion, up over 50% year-on-year. The major investment projects include building storage infrastructure for sugar beets, upgrading the Atkarsky oil extraction plant, and renewing the fieet of agricultural machinery. Coupled with organic growth projects,

the consolidation of 100% ownership and control over Agro-Belogorie Group made us the second largest pork producer in the Russian market. Joining the Rusagro Group will allow leveraging the synergies and improving our standing in the domestic market.

One of the ways Rusagro Group targets to boost its growth is by upgrading its sales portfolio.

We are making unceasing efforts to broaden our product range in the B2C segment and expand our presence

in the domestic and export markets. As for the latter area, in early 2024, Tambovsky Bacon, which is part

of Rusagro Group's Meat Business, was granted a licence to supply pork to China. By the end of last year, the volume of exports of pork products to China exceeded 5 thousand tonnes.

Another highlight was the recognition of Rusagro Group PJSC by the Government of the Russian Federation

as an economically significant organisation. The distribution of Rusagro Group shares among investors under Russian law rendered it feasible for Rusagro Group to pay dividends. Listing with the Moscow exchange necessitated the sweeping upgrade of the corporate governance framework to ensure compliance with the best Russian and international practices.

In 2024, energetic efforts were continued across all business segments of Rusagro Group to promote sustainable development goals and to minimise negative environmental impact. Priority is given to conserving water

resources, cutting waste, putting the circular economy into practice, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Among the common measures taken are the introduction of modern sewage treatment system and the use of waste incineration to generate own energy.

Human capital development is still one of the strategic objectives and the number one priority for us. In terms of the social component of sustainable growth, Rusagro Group made significant advancements in 2024.

Investment in employee training increased. We believe that making investments in our manpower' professional growth immediately augments the Company's market standing.

Throughout the reporting year, Rusagro Group kept refining its own comprehensive system to foster young specialists. This system encompasses both extensive specialised projects and traditional mentorship programmes. Over ten of system initiatives have been launched so far, and the latest noteworthy projects

are Rusagro Vector, a new project to fast track the training of young managers who will make the future leadership pool of our Company, and Rusagro Camp, a training programme for young specialist.

We are grateful to every employee and partner for their contribution to the development of the Company.

We have ambitious goals ahead of us, and if we work together, we can accomplish even more.
