The group achieved a positive net profit, reflecting the underlying strength of our premium brands, diversified business model, tight cost control and focus on continuous improvement and innovation. Reflecting the strength of our brands, these results were achieved through a period of unprecedented challenges brought on by the evolving global COVID-19 pandemic. During this ongoing crisis, employee safety and wellbeing remained our primary concern and I’m pleased to say our operations in all States continued to operate well under the COVID Safe Plans and restrictions the group put in place. Group net sales increased 18.8% year on year underpinned by 23% growth in Maggie Beer Products (MBP). We continue to benefit from the consumer shift to on-line purchasing through growth in our Maggie Beer Food Club and our direct-to-consumer channel, with MBP’s e-commerce sales increasing 103% year on year. Group revenue was up 18.1% to $53.8 million in FY21, and trading EBITDA was $3.1 million, a 177% increase on FY20. In March 2021, we announced the acquisition of the category leading premium hamper e-commerce business – Hampers and Gifts Australia (HGA). We warmly welcome all the talented HGA employees to the Maggie Beer Holdings family and we are delighted to have the HGA vendors become shareholders of MBH. Having completed the acquisition in May 2021, we have already integrated the business and commenced generating synergies. HGA is a high growth, high margin e-commerce business, achieving unaudited net sales growth of 98% last year to $36 million and delivering an unaudited full year trading EBITDA of $9 million. Consistent with our growth strategy, the successful HGA acquisition has created a large scale, premium branded direct-to-consumer business, that leverages and strengthens our core MBP business. This highly complementary acquisition has significantly increased our digital marketing and direct-to- consumer logistics capability, as well as enhancing our new product development process. Most importantly it has accelerated our customer penetration and reach, with combined HGA and MBP e-commerce sales in FY22 forecast to represent more than 40% of group net sales. Once again, our Melbourne based St David Dairy business was more impacted than our other businesses by the COVID-19 disruption to the foodservice and hospitality sectors. Despite this, customer growth achieved in the speciality retail channel, appointment of new distributors, and increased sales of yoghurt and plant-based milk, saw the business finish the year with 10% revenue growth, which was a very pleasing result. Our Paris Creek Farms business finished FY21 with net sales increase of 3.5 % on last year, reflecting the re- alignment of our private label business. We continue to reposition the portfolio and better balance the basket of dairy products that we manufacture at Paris Creek, and we have had some recent success with additional ranging of our new Greek yogurt range. We are part way through the strategic review of the business that we announced in May, in an effort to unlock greater shareholder value. Maggie Beer Holdings has a strong balance sheet, is profitable and is cashflow positive. With the recent addition of a category leading e-commerce business and best in class e-commerce capability, power brands, and a strong pipeline of innovative new products, Maggie Beer Holdings remains uniquely positioned for sustained growth in revenue and earnings. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank all stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, and our shareholders for their continued support. I very much look forward to welcoming you at the Annual General Meeting in October. Reg Weine Chairman M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 88 CEO & Managing Director’s Report C HANTALE M ILLAR D CEO & MA NA GI NG DIREC TOR Dear Shareholders, It has been a privilege to lead the Maggie Beer Holdings group (MBH) through FY21, a year that has seen us well and truly shift from “fix it” mode to “growth” mode and successfully create the foundations for sustained future growth. The past 12 months wasn’t without its challenges, with the global COVID-19 pandemic continuing to cause disruption and lockdowns impacting all four businesses to varying degrees. However, all our businesses continued to show resilience, with good diversification and management plans in place, and most importantly all our people were kept safe and well. FY21 delivered a strong financial performance across all key metrics The group performed strongly over the past 12 months, achieving: n net sales of $52.9 million, up 18.8% on FY20 (including Hampers and Gifts Australia from 21 May 2021) n trading EBITDA of $3.1 million, up 177% on FY20 n a positive net profit after tax of $1.9 million, compared to a net loss after tax of $14.8 million in FY20 (included $12.1 million impairment for Paris Creek Farms) In addition, MBH has a strong balance sheet, with $13.5 million in cash at 30 June 2021 and $3 million in undrawn debt facilities, so it is well positioned to fund the growth ahead. The Group recognised carried forward tax losses in FY21 of $4.3m and expects to be able to gain further cash benefit from utilising its remaining tax losses in future years. In terms of growth, FY21 was abundant with opportunity, with Maggie Beer Products (MBP) growing its retail and e-commerce businesses, the launch of new products across the group, and the successful acquisition of Hampers and Gifts Australia. Acquisition of Hampers and Gifts Australia fast tracks direct to consumer and e-commerce growth With improved investor confidence, the group completed the purchase of the highly complementary premium e-commerce business, Hampers and Gifts Australia (HGA) on 21 May 2021. This exciting addition fast tracks MBH’s key strategic goals of growing its direct to consumer and e-commerce business and diversifying revenue beyond the retail sector. HGA is an impressive addition, with high gross margins, strong cash generation and excellent EBITDA contribution. The HGA business had 98% net sales growth in FY21 compared to FY20, and importantly Q4 FY21 grew 26% on Q4 FY20, even with Q4 FY20 including the height of the COVID-19 pandemic uplift. HGA’s unaudited results for FY21 were net sales of $36 million and trading EBITDA of $9.4 million. Pleasingly the integration of HGA into the group is now complete, with the MBP e-commerce business relocated to Sydney and HGA taking over the management of MBP’s digital marketing. HGA has successfully implemented a new ERP system to give greater insight into operations and allow group synergies. HGA will include over 10 of MBP’s products in its hamper range over Christmas and HGA have also assisted in creating 16 new hampers for MBP, including exclusive new products developed together by the two businesses. The cultural alignment of HGA with the group is excellent and has been the key to the speed of the successful integration. HGA’s inhouse digital marketing expertise, e-commerce, logistics and customer value proposition, combined with MBP’s operational expertise and premium food range, provide the platform for the ongoing growth of our e-commerce businesses. Maggie Beer Products was the driver of the group’s growth in FY21 MBP’s net sales grew by 23% to $25.6 million, with the key categories of cheese, cooking stocks, fruit paste and pate all experiencing good growth. MBP’s e-commerce business delivered exceptional growth of 103%. The love for the Maggie Beer brand continues to grow and there are now over 6.7 million views of our “Cooking with Maggie” series, an increase in the Maggie Beer Food Club membership to 65k and over 2 million visitors to its website in FY21. The new, combined digital marketing power of MBP and HGA will allow us to increase conversions and sales from our highly engaged customer base. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 9 9 Large consumer base supports e-commerce growth The future is bright With people’s shopping habits appearing to be permanently changed from COVID-19, we are seeing continuing growth from both the MBP and the HGA e-commerce businesses, and with a combined audience of over 690k from our data bases and social media platforms, we now have a large e-commerce business with a large consumer base to continue our growth trajectory. Consumers are choosing premium Australian brands Our core retail business has also experienced excellent growth, with people continuing to choose to buy Australian premium dairy, cooking and entertaining products as part of their weekly shop. This is highlighted by the upcoming August 2021 launch of a range of 100% Natural Finishing Sauces and Bone Broths nationally for MBP, which are a great addition to its existing convenient at home, premium cooking range. Paris Creek Farms progressing well We continue to review the future strategy for Paris Creek Farms, with an ongoing focus on returning the business to profitability and increasing value, with a reset cost base and launch of its new Greek Yogurt range in late Q4 FY21. In FY21 net sales (excluding intercompany sales) grew by 3.5% year on year and the business reduced its trading EBITDA loss substantially to $0.27 million. In Q4FY21, Paris Creek Farms conducted a review of its private label business and elected to no longer do an unprofitable white milk contract, which did impact overhead factory recoveries, and our Q4 FY21 result. However, as the business focuses and grows its branded business, it will be better positioned going forward. We continue to have a strong milk pool, with great relationships with our loyal Bio-dynamic Organic dairy farmers, who are positioned to grow with the business. St David Dairy continues to grow St David Dairy’s net sales increased by 10% year on year, despite continued lockdowns in Victoria due to COVID- 19. The business continued to pivot further into retail, with approximately 25% of its revenue now from the retail sector. The business has also signed on two new distributors to service the Mornington Peninsula/Gippsland and Ballarat/ Bellarine Peninsula regions which are growing well. Consumer loyalty to its brand, the launch of a new soft cheese range and the business’ ability to pivot into new markets has seen it continue to remain profitable and cashflow positive, as well as maintain sales growth and a solid EBITDA in FY21. MBH’s house of premium brands resonate strongly with Australian consumers who are more discerning than ever and are looking to buy locally sourced high-quality products. Following the purchase of HGA, the group now has a strong e-commerce business that will accelerate growth, while leveraging its manufacturing operations. FY22 will see MBH continue to grow its retail grocery businesses, with new product launches and investments in marketing and key people, whilst also accelerating the growth of its e-commerce business with the addition of HGA to the group. The opportunities are many, with the group transformed and with a very clear path for sustained growth. We are excited about the future of the group, as we push towards group revenue of $100 million over the next 12 months and look forward to rewarding our shareholders whilst providing continued innovation to our customers and support to our local suppliers and the communities in which we operate. Thank you to our shareholders for their continued belief and support in the group and a huge thank you to all of the MBH teams, for their hard work and dedication to achieve this great result. Chantale Millard CEO and Managing Director “ “We are looking forward to FY22, with the exciting growth prospects of the group’s combined e-commerce and retail businesses.” - CH ANTALE MI LLARD, CEO & MANAGING DIRECTOR M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 10 10 “ “The group continues to capitalise on opportunities for growth and creating long term value for shareholders.” - CHANTALE MILLA RD, CEO & MANAGING DIREC TO R M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 11 11 Operations Report Financial Performance In FY21, the group continued its strong performance following the completion of MBH’s restructure in FY20. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect all MBH’s businesses, however they have all shown resilience and adaptability with strong performance despite various State lockdown restrictions being in place. The group completed its purchase of Hampers and Gifts Australia (HGA) on 21 May 2021. HGA is a leading e-commerce gourmet hamper and gift business that aligns with the group’s premium food and beverage portfolio and strategy of growing its direct to consumer business. The group achieved 18.1% growth in FY21 revenue to $53.8 million (FY20: $45.6 million), with continued growth from all businesses and the inclusion of HGA from the 21 May 2021. The group achieved a significant turnaround in net profit after tax to $1.9 million (FY20: loss of $14.8 million) reflecting: n Maggie Beer Products: Continued strong net sales and profit growth n Paris Creek Farms: Operational turnaround, sales growth and change in product mix underpinning a strong improvement in its trading EBITDA n St David Dairy: Resilient sales and customer growth despite the ongoing COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns faced in Melbourne throughout the year n Hampers and Gifts Australia: Acquired on 21 May 2021, with strong cash generation, gross margin and EBITDA contribution n Head Office: Reduced corporate costs following completion of restructure in FY20. Maggie Beer Products Maggie Beer Products continued to deliver strong results with its trading EBITDA up 22.6% to $3.9 million (FY20: $3.2 million). Net sales were up 23.4% to $25.6 million (FY20: $20.8 million) driven by the launch of new products and a continued focus on growing its e-commerce business. The MBP cheese range was the highest selling category with 50% growth from last year. The key core portfolio of products of cooking stocks, fruit paste and pate also continued to achieve solid growth on the prior year. The business launched its new e-commerce platform in early November 2020 which has given the consumer an enhanced shopping experience, contributing to online sales increasing 103% in FY21. Expenses continued to remain under control with an experienced management team in place, with total expenses as a percentage of net sales reducing by a further 2.3 points to 30.2% in FY21 (FY20: 32.5%). Whilst focusing on the businesses cost base, management has also been concentrating on keeping up with consumer demand by developing new products with a range of Finishing Sauces and Bone Broths launching nationally in September 2021. Paris Creek Farms Paris Creek Farms’ performance in FY21 reflected the anticipated turnaround in sales and benefits from operational changes implemented in late FY19 and early FY20. The business’ reduced cost base and recovery in sales, underpinned a 71% improvement in trading EBITDA. Net sales (excluding intersegment sales) for FY21 grew 3.5% to $16.1 million (FY20: $15.5 million). Sales growth was impacted by Paris Creek Farms’ private label business review and in Q4 FY21 electing not to pursue unprofitable milk business. This decreased net sales in comparison to the prior year and has impacted factory overheads in the short term but will ultimately see the business in a better position over the medium term. FY21 gross profit was up 8.9% to $7.6 million (FY20: $6.9 million), with gross margin percentage improving by 3.8 points to 47.0%. This improvement is the result of the business continuing to refine its cost base and selling a more profitable mix of products. With the business continually reviewing its cost base, it achieved further savings in FY21 with total expenses as a percentage of sales, reducing by 1.5 points to 49.0% in FY21 (FY20 50.5%). Overall, Paris Creek Farms FY21 trading EBITDA was $0.6 million higher than FY20, narrowing the loss to $0.3 million. Further refinements to its cost base and improving sales and products mix, are expected to underpin further growth and return to a sustained positive trading EBITDA. M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 1212 Operations Report, continued. St David Dairy Corporate St David Dairy has continued to be tremendously resilient in the face of the continued COVID-19 related restrictions and lockdowns throughout the year in Melbourne. The business continued to diversify its mixture of customers with revenue from the retail sector now comprising 25% of sales. Despite the restrictions and lockdowns imposed throughout the year, St David Dairy continued to deliver revenue growth and increase its customer base. Net sales were up 9.9% to $9.0 million (FY20: $8.2 million), with the number of ordering customers increasing by 17% in FY21. Milk sales continued to perform strongly and were the largest product category at 67% of total net sales (FY20: 67%). FY21 milk sales were up 4% compared to FY20, and plant-based milk sales continued to gain momentum, now making up 7% of total net sales (FY20: 4%). The 32% increase in net sales to retailers in FY21 was driven by a 54% increase in yoghurt sales (compared to FY20). The recent lockdown in Sydney has impacted demand from our Sydney based distributor, but we expect this to return to growth once restrictions ease. Costs are now under control with the new truck fleet continuing to deliver savings, with transport costs 47% lower than FY20. Labour costs stabilised in FY21 and finished 0.6 points less than FY20 as a percentage of sales. With the launch of a new soft cheese range and the business’ ability to adapt to the everchanging COVID-19 environment, St David Dairy continued to remain profitable and cashflow positive in FY21. Hampers and Gifts Australia The recent acquisition of HGA will be highly complementary to the group with high gross margins, high EBITDA margins, and strong cash generation forecasted. HGA’s (unaudited) FY21 net sales for FY21 grew by 98% over FY20 with Q4 FY21 and importantly it had 26% net sales growth in Q4 FY21 compared to Q4 FY20, with FY20 including the substantial COVID-19 uplift. HGA’s digital marketing & e-commerce expertise will be an invaluable addition to the group, accelerating its e-commerce presence and growth opportunities. HGA will provide a full year contribution to the group’s financial results in FY22, given the acquisition was completed on 21 May 2021. Shared services and corporate office costs of $2.0 million (excluding one-off items) were $0.5 million lower than FY20, with employee costs the most significant component. FY21 included net one off costs of $1.9 million (FY20: $0.3 million) related to non-cash share options issued, HGA acquisition costs, offset by a claim settlement and COVID-19 government grants. The restructure of the Head Office is now complete, having been consolidated into our South Australian operations. Balance Sheet and Cashflows The group is supported by a strong balance sheet with net assets at 30 June 2021 of $102.8 million (30 June 2020: $50.6 million), including a cash balance of $13.5 million (30 June 2020: $7.2 million) and an undrawn invoice finance facility of $3.0 million. Due to the positive performance of the group and strong cash reserves, on 20 August 2020, the company repaid a $400,000 loan in full early, together with accrued interest, to the Beer Family Holdings Pty Ltd as trustee for the Beer Family Trust and in late June 2021, another loan from the Beer Family Trust was repaid in full 5 years earlier than the contractual term saving future interest costs. The total undiscounted loan value repaid in FY21 was $0.9 million (FY20 balance: $1.0 million). The increase in group net assets is mainly due to the acquisition of Hampers and Gifts Australia. The group achieved a strong positive operating cashflow position for FY21 of $1.5 million, a $1.7 million turnaround on FY20’s cash outflow of $(0.2) million. This demonstrates the strong turnaround of the group in FY21 and positions us for increased growth in FY22. This positive operating cashflow result was after the inclusion of acquisition costs for HGA and working capital payments for HGA as it stocks up for the busy Christmas season. Inventory at 30 June 2021 was $8.5 million (30 June 2020: $3.5 million) or 16.1% of annualised sales (FY20: 7.9%), with HGA holding $4.3 million of stock, Maggie Beer Products holding $3.3 million of stock (30 June 2020: $2.5 million), Paris Creek Farms holding $0.7 million of stock (30 June 2020: $0.8 million) and St David Dairy holding $0.2 million of stock (30 June 2020 $0.2 million). Inventory as a percentage of annualised sales will normalise in FY22 with a full 12 months of sales for HGA. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 1313 Overall working capital for the company is at circa 18% of sales, an increase of 8 points compared to 30 June 2020, due to the increase in inventory on acquisition of HGA. Once again this will stabilise over FY22 as the group has a full 12 months of net sales from HGA. The management team’s disciplined approach to working capital and the group’s cash management will continue. Positive outlook for continued growth The group continues to capitalise on opportunities for growth and deliver long term value for its shareholders. Maggie Beer Holdings continues to align with consumer demands for locally sourced high-quality products. The group will continue to grow its retail businesses, whilst accelerating growth of its e-commerce business by developing further innovative products and growing its premium food and beverage portfolio. “ “Successful acquisition of Hampers and Gifts Australia created a large scale, premium branded direct- to-consumer business.” - REG W EIN E, C HA IRMA N M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 14 14 “ We believe in sustainable farming & creating products as naturally as they can be.” M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 15 15 “ “With a strong balance sheet and cash position, the group is well funded for future growth.” - CH ANTALE MILLARD, CEO & MANAGING DIRECTOR M A G G I E B E E R H O L D I N G S LT D | A N N U A L R E P O R T | 2 0 2 1 MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 1616 Risk Statement KEY RISKS AND MITIGANT S The company is committed to the effective management of risk to reduce uncertainty in the group’s business outcomes and to protect and enhance shareholder value.

The Board is of the opinion that changing the name of the company to Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd better reflected the company’s core focus, whilst the Maggie Beer Products brand provides a premium halo for the company’s diverse product portfolio. Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd will be instantly recognised by shareholders, employees, customers and consumers of the group’s products. The Board believes that the new name has and will continue to facilitate an improved understanding of the company’s businesses and its potential for growth n Non-executive directors’ fees taken in shares The Director Fees Plan was established to allow the company’s directors to elect, from time to time, to be paid their remuneration through the issue of shares in the company, rather than as a cash payment. The Board believes the Director Fees Plan forms an important part of the remuneration for the company’s non-executive directors that elect to participate in the Director Fees Plan, aligning their interests with those of shareholders by linking their remuneration to the long-term success of the company and its financial performance. n Chairman’s options 4,500,000 Options were issued to the Chairman, Mr Reginald Weine, under the company’s Employee Share Option Plan. On 20 August 2020, the company repaid a $400,000 loan (Loan Amount) in full early, together with accrued interest, to the Beer Family Holdings Pty Ltd as trustee for the Beer Family Trust.

Remuneration report (audited) The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors. The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings: n Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration n Executive contracts n Share-based compensation n Additional information n Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration The objective of the consolidated entity’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and it is considered to conform to the market best practice for the delivery of reward. The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: n competitiveness and reasonableness n acceptability to shareholders n performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation n transparency MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 2323 The Remuneration and Nomination Committee is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and executives. The performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain high performance and high quality personnel. No external specialist remuneration advice was sought in respect of remuneration arrangements for non-executive directors of the Board and key management personnel of the group during the year. General reward advice is sought on an ad hoc basis. The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to shareholders’ interests. The Board have considered that it should seek to enhance shareholders’ interests by: n having economic profit as a core component of plan design n focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value n attracting and retaining high calibre executives Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives’ interests by: n rewarding capability and experience n reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth n providing a clear structure for earning rewards Maggie Beer AM has continued as a brand ambassador during the year, continuing her association with the Maggie Beer brand, its product development program and customer relationship. Maggie Beer receives fees of $13,092 per month for her services. Maggie Beer received $157,104 for services provided during the year. Each non-executive director receives a fee for being a director of the company but no additional fees for sitting on or chairing committees. Director fees are inclusive of superannuation entitlements. All non-executive directors except the company’s Chairman have elected to receive their fees in shares in the company which was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 16 July 2020. The maximum director aggregate fee pool is $400,000. Executive remuneration The consolidated entity aims to reward executives based on their position and responsibility, with a level and mix of remuneration which has both fixed and variable components. The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components: n base pay and non-monetary benefits n short-term performance incentives n share-based payments n other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave The combination of these comprises the executive’s total remuneration. Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits, are reviewed annually by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the consolidated entity and comparable market remunerations. Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example motor vehicle benefits) where it does not create any additional costs to the consolidated entity and provides additional value to the executive. The short-term incentives (‘STI’) program is designed to align the targets of the business units with the targets of those executives responsible for meeting those targets. Short-term incentives are used to differentiate rewards based on performance on a year by year basis. The principal performance indicator of the short-term incentive plan is the group’s financial performance. The financial performance measurements selected are revenue growth and Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA). They have been selected as the most appropriate measures of trading performance, and are calculated based on a percentage above a revenue and EBITDA threshold level. This allows the individual to be rewarded for growth in revenue and profitability of the company. The percentage and threshold level can differ for each individual and are reviewed every year. The revenue and EBITDA thresholds are determined based on the ability of the key management personnel to influence the group’s earnings. The long-term incentives (‘LTI’) include long service leave and share-based payments. Shares and options are occasionally awarded to executives over a period of three years based on long-term incentive measures. These include increases in shareholders’ value relative to the entire market and the increase compared to the consolidated entity’s direct competitors.

Auditor’s independence declaration A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out immediately after this directors’ report. Auditor PricewaterhouseCoopers continues in office in accordance with section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001.

On behalf of the directors Reg Weine Non-executive Chairman 19 August 2021 The company has paid insurance premiums in respect of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance contracts, for officers of the company and of its controlled entities. The insurance cover is on standard industry terms and provides cover for loss and liability for wrongful acts in relation to the relevant person’s role as an officer, except that cover is not provided for loss in relation to officers gaining any profit or advantage to which they were not legally entitled, or officers committing any criminal, dishonest, fraudulent or malicious act or omission, or any knowing or wilful violation of any statute or regulation. Cover is also only provided for fines and penalties in limited circumstances and up to a small financial limit. The insurance does not provide cover for the independent auditors of the company or of a related body corporate of the company. In accordance with usual commercial practice, the insurance contract prohibits disclosure of details of the nature of the liabilities covered by the insurance, the limit of indemnity and the amount of the premium paid under the contract. Indemnity and insurance of auditor The company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor. During the financial year, the company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the company or any related entity. Proceedings on behalf of the company No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings.

GENERAL INFORMATION The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards and Interpretations, the Corporations Act 2001 and complies with other requirements of the law. The financial report covers the company and controlled entities. The company is a public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd changed its name from Longtable Group Limited on 16 July 2020. For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the company is a for-profit entity. The financial report includes the consolidated financial statements of the group and is referred to as the group or consolidated entity. The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 19 August 2021. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out either in the respective notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any amendments did not have any impact on the amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. Going concern The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes the continuity of normal business activities, and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For the year ended 30 June 2021, the group has a net profit after tax of $1.9 million (2021: loss: $14.8 million) and generated net cash inflows of $1.5 million (2020: $0.2 million outflow). As at year end, the cash position was $13.5 million (30 June 2020: $7.2 million). The company expects its normal cash flows over the next 12 months from the date of signing to be sufficient to continue as a going concern. The company’s ability to generate cash flows in continued challenging economic conditions has also been stress tested with scenarios including a 10% drop in sales over the next 12 months with no issues in relation to going concern identified. Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’). The presentation and functional currency of the group is Australian dollars. Historical cost convention The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 3. Parent entity information In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 31. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd (‘company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the ‘consolidated entity’. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de- consolidated from the date that control ceases. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 40 NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONT. Income tax A controlled entity is any entity the company has the power over, and is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement in the entity, and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. A list of controlled entities is contained in note 33 to the financial statements. All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity, including any recognised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those policies applied by the parent entity. Where controlled entities have entered or left the consolidated entity during the year, their operating results have been included/excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased. The investments in controlled entities are measured at cost in the parent entity’s financial statements. The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. Revenue recognition The consolidated entity recognises revenue as follows: Sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised to the extent that the group satisfies its single performance obligation to transfer agreed goods and the transaction price can be readily identified. All revenue is recognised at a point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer i.e. when the goods are delivered to the customer. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable being the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for goods. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of discounts, trade allowances and rebates. All revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at a point in time. Interest Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Other revenue Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. The charge for current income tax expense/(benefit) is based on the profit/(loss) for the year adjusted for any non- assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the statement of financial position date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the statement of financial position liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is recognised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the profit or loss except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The company and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. Each entity in the group recognised its own current and deferred tax liabilities, except for any deferred tax assets resulting from unused tax losses and tax credits, which are immediately assumed by the parent entity. The current tax liability of each group entity is then subsequently assumed by the parent entity. The group entered into the tax consolidation regime from 1st June 2006 and notified the Australian Taxation Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1st June 2006. The tax will be paid by the parent entity as the group has not entered into a tax funding agreement. The company is the designated parent entity for tax consolidation purposes. Right-of-use assets A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 41 Lease liabilities A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down. The group has not applied any practical expedients for lease liabilities. Current and non-current classification Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. Impairment of non-financial assets At each reporting date, the consolidated entity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the consolidated entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not subsequently reversed. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income immediately. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in income. Finance costs Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities. Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. The group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 42 NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONT. Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognised directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortised over the lives of the convertible notes using the effective interest method. Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as part of operating cash flows. Rounding of amounts The company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to ‘rounding-off’. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar. NOTE 3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. COVID-19 pandemic Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic has had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets The consolidated entity tests annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment, whether goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 12. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of the estimated future cash flows. Lease term The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement is exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods to be included in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the consolidated entity’s operations; comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The consolidated entity reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances. No options to extend or terminate lease terms have been included in the measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Business combinations As discussed in note 32, the business combinations in the current year have been accounted for on a provisional basis. The fair value of assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed are initially estimated by the consolidated entity taking into consideration all available information at the reporting date. Fair value adjustments on the finalisation of the business combination accounting is retrospective, where applicable, to the period the combination occurred and may have an impact on the assets and liabilities, depreciation and amortisation reported.

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less a loss allowance provision. The carrying value of trade and other receivables, less loss allowance provisions, is considered to approximate fair value, due to the short term nature of the receivables. The collectability of trade and other receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis with a further focus in this financial year on collection risk following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Individual debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off when identified. The group recognises a loss allowance provision based upon anticipated lifetime losses of trade receivables. The anticipated losses are determined with reference to historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information and is regularly reviewed and updated. This includes general macroeconomic indicators such as RBA cash rate and GDP growth. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement between 30 and 60 days. The COVID-19 pandemic has not resulted in any additional receivables write-offs. Credit risks related to receivables Refer to note 23 for additional information. NOTE 8.

Accounting policy for property, plant and equipment Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including recognised lease assets is depreciated on a straight line or diminishing value basis over their useful lives to the group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: Motor vehicles Plant and equipment Building and leasehold improvements 5 years 4 to 20 years 10 to 33 years The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss.

MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 51 NOTE 12. NON-CURRENT ASSETS - INTANGIBLES, CONT. Accounting policy for intangible assets Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. Accounting policy for goodwill Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognised as an asset at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date). Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non- controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as a bargain purchase gain. Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the group’s cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognised separately from goodwill are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately. Recoverable amount of goodwill In accordance with AASB 136, impairment testing has been undertaken for all cash generating units (CGUs) with indefinite intangibles or where there is an indication of impairment. These impairment tests have been completed via a multiple scenario approach in response to significant uncertainties in the market. At 30 June 2021, for Maggie Beer Products and St David Dairy, the recoverable amounts have been determined based on value-in-use calculations which uses cash flow projections based on financial forecasts covering a five- year period, including changes in working capital and expenditure for maintenance. Cash flows are extrapolated using estimated growth rates beyond the five-year period. Key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculations for the Maggie Beer Products and St David Dairy CGUs are based on a large range of data, including available independent grocery and dairy reports on the Australian market, overlaid with management’s latest forecast for financial year 2021 and incorporating previous revenue growth, achievable margin, reasonable expense increases, capital expenditure for maintenance and entity specific long-term averages for the latter years. In considering the outlook for Maggie Beer Products and St David Dairy, and the specific impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, management considered a range of possible scenarios and have applied a probability weighting to each of these in order to determine an estimation of future cash flows which has a reasonable and appropriate basis. Maggie Beer Products Revenue growth Revenue growth over the five-year period is based upon forecasted revenue on a business-as-usual basis and assumes no New Products Development (‘NPD’) or new geographies (in accordance with AASB 136). The starting point is an assessment of the market, leveraging industry reports and overlaying with known sales growth opportunities e.g. additional sales growth from launching new range of finishing sauces and bone broths in Woolworths in FY22. The average revenue growth over the forecast period is assumed at 9.33% per annum (compared with an actual growth rate of 23.39% in FY21). Costs Gross margin in FY22 is expecting to soften slightly from its FY21 levels, due to the increase in 3rd party produced products as a percentage of total sales, and is then assumed to remain flat for the remainder of the model’s period with the sales mix including increased higher margin MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 52 from e-commerce sales. Raw material price increases are minimal and are to be matched by price increases with retailers to offset, as was evidenced in the current year. All fixed costs, including selling, administration and management labour, are modelled to grow at 2.0% a year, in line with the Reserve Bank of Australia’s inflation target range of 2–3 percent, on average, over time. Long-term growth rate The long-term growth rate is the weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the modelled period. A long-term growth rate of 2.0% has been used in the value-in-use calculations, which is on the lower end of the long-term Reserve Bank of Australia’s inflation target range of 2–3 percent, on average, over time. Discount rate The discount rate represents the current market assessment of the risks relating to the relevant CGU. In performing the value-in-use calculations for the CGU, the group has applied a pre-tax discount rate of 13.96% per annum (9.77% post tax) for Maggie Beer Products. The discount rate includes a COVID-19 pandemic risk premium of 0.70% to allow for the overall uncertainty in the wider economy even though the Consumer Staples sector has generally experienced limited downside (or even positive) impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and there is less uncertainty around future earnings expectations. Also included in the discount rate is a specific company risk rate of 2.00% to recognise the abnormally low risk-free rate of 1.49% at 30 June 2021. Review outcome In completing the impairment review based on the aforementioned, the value in use of the Maggie Beer Products business exceeded its carrying value by $16.9 million. Sensitivities A change to revenue growth assuming no sales growth from FY22 onwards would result in a $5.2m impact to the recoverable amount of the CGU compared to the carrying value of goodwill; a change of EBITDA margin by 1.0% over the five-year forecast period would result in a $3.4m impact to the recoverable amount of the CGU compared to the carrying amount of goodwill; a 2.0% drop to the gross margin over the five-year forecast period would result in a $6.9m impact to the recoverable amount of the CGU compared to the carrying amount of goodwill. These sensitivities cover the key possible material impacts to the recoverable amount. All sensitivities still result in significant carrying value of goodwill. St David Dairy Base scenario Revenue growth Revenue growth over the five-year period is based upon forecasted revenue on a business-as-usual basis and assumes no New Products Development (‘NPD’) or new geographies (in accordance with AASB 136). The starting point is an assessment of the market, leveraging dairy industry reports and overlaying with known sales growth opportunities e.g. increased sales in specialty retail stores, alternative milk products. The FY22 budget as approved by the Board assumes a gradual recovery in the first half of the year with an acceleration in the second half of FY22 to reach annual sales growth of 13.2%. The average revenue growth over the remaining forecast period is modelled at 12.5% per annum, compared to 20.7% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) sales growth achieved in the 5 years from FY17 to FY21, and is underpinned by: n customer base growth in the hospitality and retail sectors with organic sales growth across cafes & restaurants. n further capturing market share of cafes and restaurants in Melbourne initially and continuing to expand into other states of Australia. n increased demand for alternative milk. n continued expansion into premium and specialty grocers where “buy fresh, buy local” continues to gain momentum. Costs Costs have assumed stabilised milk and cream prices with no price increase expected in FY22 and any future increases matched by price increases, continued delivery cost savings seen from the purchase of trucks, along with a now stable and experienced management team. Long-term growth rate The long-term growth rate is the weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the modelled period. A long-term growth rate of 2.0% has been used in the value-in-use calculations, which is on the lower end of the long-term Reserve Bank of Australia’s inflation target range of 2–3 percent, on average, over time. Discount rate The discount rate represents the current market assessment of the risks relating to the relevant CGU. In performing the value-in-use calculations for the CGU, the group has applied a pre-tax discount rate of 14.02% per annum (9.82% post tax) for St David Dairy. The discount rate includes a COVID-19 pandemic risk premium of 0.70% to allow for the overall uncertainty in the wider economy even though the Consumer Staples sector has generally experienced limited downside impacts from COVID-19 pandemic and there is less uncertainty around future earnings expectations. Also included in the discount rate is a specific company risk rate of 2.00% to recognise the abnormally low risk-free rate of 1.49% at 30 June 2021. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 53 In addition to the base scenario detailed above, management has included 4 other scenarios, which if they occurred, would be likely to materially impact the carrying value of the CGU. The first scenario is sales in each year from FY22 to FY26 being 10% lower than forecast. The second is milk prices to be 2% higher per year from FY22 to FY26 with no ability to pass onto consumers. The third is delivery cost savings are 1% lower per year from FY22 to FY26. The fourth is for FY22 to have the same sales growth as FY21 which represents trading conditions during the COVID-19 environment following the same pattern of lockdowns and restrictions in Melbourne.

Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. NOTE 18.

The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each share shall have one vote. Share buy-back There is no current on-market share buy-back. Capital risk management Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. The capital structure of the group consists of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, retained earnings and reserves. Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand the group’s assets, as well as to make the routine outflows of payables and tax. The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 2020 Annual Report. Accounting policy for issued capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. NOTE 23. EQUITY - RESERVES Options reserve Options reserve Consolidated 2021 $’000 3,267 2020 $’000 1,634 Options reserve arises on the grant of share options to directors and employees of the group under the group incentive option scheme. Amounts are transferred out of the reserve and into issued capital when the options are exercised. The company operates an ownership-based remuneration scheme through the Incentive Option Scheme, details of which are provided in note 37 to the financial statements. Other than minimal administration costs, which are expensed when incurred, the plan does not result in any cash outflow from the company. The fair value of equity-settled share-based payments is measured by use of the Black-Scholes model. The expected life used in the models have been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity settled share based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the consolidated entity’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. At the end of each reporting period, the group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial risk management objectives The capital structure of the consolidated entity consists of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, retained earnings and reserves. Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand the group’s assets, as well as to make the routine outflows of payables and tax. The consolidated entity’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and short-term deposits. These activities expose the consolidated entity to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity does not have formal documented policies and procedures for the management of risk associated with financial instruments. However, the Board has responsibility for managing the different types of risks to which the consolidated entity is exposed. These responsibilities include considering risk and monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate risk, and by being aware of market forecasts for interest rate, and commodity prices. Ageing analyses and monitoring of specific credit allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk, liquidity risk is monitored through general business budgets and forecasts. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 59 Market risk Price risk The group is not exposed to any significant price risk. Interest rate risk The group’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the group’s cash and short-term deposits held. Sensitivity Analysis The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the statement of financial position date. At 30 June, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant, post tax-loss and equity would have been affected as follows: Basis points increase Basis points decrease Effect on profit before tax $’000 135 Effect on equity $’000 135 Basis points change (50) Effect on profit before tax $’000 (68) Basis points change 100 Basis points increase Basis points decrease Effect on profit before tax $’000 72 Effect on equity $’000 72 Basis points change (50) Effect on profit before tax $’000 (36) Basis points change 100 Effect on equity $’000 (68) Effect on equity $’000 (36) Consolidated 2021 Bank deposits Consolidated 2020 Bank deposits Credit risk The consolidated entity has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables through the use of a provisions matrix using fixed rates of credit loss provisioning. These provisions are considered representative across all customers of the consolidated entity based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is available. This includes general macroeconomic indicators such as RBA cash rate and GDP growth. Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan, no active enforcement activity and a failure to make contractual payments for a period greater than 1 year. The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets, net of any allowance for impairment losses, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial report. The group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties, and as such collateral is not requested nor is it the group’s policy to securitise its trade and other receivables. It is the group’s policy to consider the credit worthiness of all customers who wish to trade on credit terms. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT Accounting policy for fair value measurement When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

NOTE 32. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Hampers and Gifts Australia On 21 May 2021, Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd acquired 100% of the ordinary shares of Hampers and Gifts Australia Pty Ltd (“HGA”) for a total upfront consideration of $40 million plus contingent consideration (earnout), comprising of cash and shares. HGA is a leading e-commerce gourmet hamper and gift business. At the date of finalisation of the annual year report, the consolidated entity has provisionally analysed on whether all identifiable intangible assets have been recognised and vendor warranties and representations met. Accordingly, the initial accounting for the acquisition of HGA has only been provisionally determined at the end of the reporting period. For tax purposes, the tax values of HGA’s assets are required to be reset based on market values of the assets when admitted into the tax consolidated group. The acquired business contributed revenues of $2.17 million and a profit after tax of $0.45 million to the consolidated entity for the period ending 30 June 2021. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 The provisional fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired are detailed below: Other current assets Other receivables Inventories Leasehold improvements Plant and equipment Right-of-use assets Website Brand Customer contracts Trade and other payables Contract liabilities Deferred tax liability Lease liability Net assets acquired Goodwill Acquisition-date fair value of the total consideration transferred Representing: Cash paid or payable to vendor MBH shares issued to vendor Value of MBH shares issued at $0.35 (35 cents) per share Contingent consideration* Cash receivable on Working Capital/Net Debt adjustment** 65 Provisional Fair value $000 179 199 3,702 11 362 221 208 9,440 4,860 (1,726) (273) (4,290) (285) 12,608 40,717 53,325 20,000 20,000 13,790 (640) 53,150 i.

MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 JUNE 2021 66 NOTE 32. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, CONT. *Contingent consideration In the event that Hampers and Gifts Australia (“HGA”) achieves no less than $10 million EBITDA for the financial year ending 30 June 2023 (Earnout Period) the vendors will be entitled to a base earnout consideration of $10 million (50% cash and 50% shares). However, in addition to the base earnout amount, the vendors will be entitled to an additional $1 million for every increase of $1 million in EBITDA (up to a maximum of an additional $5 million) during the earnout period in the same portions of cash and shares. For example, if HGA achieves no less than $14 million in EBITDA for the earnout period, then the total earnout amount will be $14 million and if HGA achieves no less than $17 million in EBITDA for the earnout period, then the total earnout will be $15 million. The potential undiscounted amount payable under the agreement is between $0 for EBITDA less than $10 million for the financial year ending 30 June 2023 (earnout period) and $15 million for EBITDA above $15 million. The fair value of the contingent consideration of $13.8 million was estimated by calculating the present value of future expected cash flows. The estimates are based on a discount rate of 8.21% and assumed probability-adjusted sales of HGA of between $13 million and $15 million. **Cash receivable on Working Capital/Net Debt adjustment The share purchase agreement on acquisition of HGA utilised completion accounts where the target working capital amount and net debt amounts were agreed prior to acquisition date. The cash adjustment receivable from the vendors represents the difference between the actual amount of working capital and net debt on completion date compared to target. The cash adjustment was received subsequently from the vendors on 04 August 2021. ii. Acquisition related costs Acquisition-related costs amounting to $0.84 million are not included as part of consideration for the acquisition and have been recognised as transaction costs for the period ended 30 June 2021. Accounting policy for business combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit or loss. On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated entity’s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. The difference between the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquirer. Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based on new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date.

MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 72 Our audit approach An audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report. We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion on the financial report as a whole, taking into account the geographic and management structure of the Group, its accounting processes and controls and the industry in which it operates. Materiality Audit scope  Our audit focused on where the Group made subjective judgements; for example, significant accounting estimates involving assumptions and inherently uncertain future events.  Maggie Beer Holdings Ltd operates across four operating segments with its head office functions based in South Australia, Australia.  For the purpose of our audit we used overall Group materiality of $538,000, which represents approximately 1% of the Group's total revenues.  We applied this threshold, together with qualitative considerations, to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements on the financial report as a whole.  We chose Group total revenues because, in our view, it is the benchmark against which the performance of the Group is most commonly measured.  We utilised a 1% threshold based on our professional judgement, noting it is within the range of commonly acceptable thresholds. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report for the current period. The key audit matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Further, any commentary on the outcomes of a particular audit procedure is made in that context. We communicated the key audit matters to the Audit and Risk Committee. MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 73 Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Impairment assessment of the St David Dairy Cash Generating Unit (CGU) (Refer to note 14) The Group has allocated goodwill of $11.8 million to the St David Dairy ("SDD") CGU. Under Australian Accounting Standards, the Group is required to assess goodwill for impairment at least annually. The recoverable amounts of the CGU was determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of assumptions, including estimated discount rates based on the current cost of capital and growth rates of estimated future cash flows. We considered this to be a key audit matter because of the financial significance of the goodwill allocated to the St David Dairy CGU and the judgements and assumptions made by the Group in determining the recoverable amount, to which it is particularly sensitive, as detailed in note 14 of the financial statements. Our procedures included, amongst others:  Developing an understanding of how the Group identified assumptions and sources of data  Assessing whether the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) identified by the Group and the assets and liabilities allocated to it was consistent with our knowledge of the Group’s operating and internal reporting.  Together with PwC experts, evaluating the appropriateness of significant assumptions in the context of Australian Accounting Standards. This included: o Assessing whether the discount rate used in the model was appropriate by comparing it to market data, comparable companies and industry research o Comparing the forecast cash flows used in the model were consistent with the most up-to-date budget formally approved by the Board o Comparing growth rate assumptions to alternative assumptions used in the industry and/or market o Evaluating the Group’s historical ability to forecast future cash flows by comparing budgets with reported actual results for prior years o Evaluating appropriateness of inputs used to calculate the terminal value  We have also evaluated the reasonableness of the disclosure against the requirements of Australian Accounting Standards MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 74 Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Accounting for business combinations (Refer to note 30) On 21 May 2021, Maggie Beer Holdings Limited acquired 100% of the ordinary shares of Hampers & Gifts Australia Pty Ltd ("Hampers & Gifts Australia") for a total upfront consideration of $40 million plus contingent consideration (earnout), comprising of cash and shares. Accounting for the acquisition of Hampers & Gifts Australia has been provisionally determined at the end of the reporting period. We determined that this is a key audit matter due to the financial significance of the transaction, the judgement involved in calculating the fair value of the net assets acquired and the resultant goodwill and intangible assets arising on the acquisition. Our procedures included, amongst others:  assessing the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities recognised, including; o assessing the competence and capability of management’s expert engaged to value the intangible assets and goodwill o evaluating appropriateness of source data and significant assumptions used  considering the resonableness of the business combination disclosures in light of the requirements of Australian Accounting Standards In relation to the valuation of the contingent consideration, our procedures included, amongst others:  assessing if the calculation of the contingent consideration was in accordance with the contractual arrangements and the requirements of Australian Accounting Standards  developing an understanding of the Group’s perspective on the future growth of the acquired businesses  assessing the Group’s evaluation of whether the conditions required for the contingent consideration to be paid were likely to be met in the future based upon actual performance since acquisition and current Group forecasts  considering the reasonableness of the contingent consideration disclosures in light of the requirements of Australian Accounting Standards MAGGIE BEER HOLDINGS LTD | ANNUAL REPORT | 2021 75 Other information The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report.
