Commenting on the results, Origin Chief Executive Officer, Sean Coyle said:
"The announcement of these results today is completely overshadowed by the terrible events in Ukraine following the Russian invasion. Right across the wider Origin Group we are hugely concerned for our colleagues and have been supporting the safety and wellbeing of our team and their families in the region. We are deeply saddened by the loss of innocent lives and support the strong international response. Thanks to our colleagues in Agrii Polska and Agrii Romania, we have established internal support teams in Poland and Romania to meet colleagues and their families as they cross the border. These teams are in close contact with our Ukrainian colleagues, organising transport, accommodation, food, clothing, medication, and any other support required by the families that are crossing the border. I would like to thank those teams for their generosity, particularly those who have taken colleagues into their own homes.
The Group delivered a strong operating profit result in the first half of the year, driven by strong performances across all three operating segments. While rising fertiliser pricing resulted in a 5% reduction in fertiliser demand in the period, security of product supply is the key focus ahead of peak seasonal demand. The UK and Ireland saw a notable recovery through improved plantings and good early season volumes across our seed and crop protection portfolios. An improved contribution from Continental Europe was driven by early season demand and positive on-farm sentiment. Our Latin American segment delivered a strong underlying performance in both our core portfolio and new controlled-release fertiliser volumes as our CRF plant in Minas Gerais in Brazil successfully managed its first seasonal peak.
Group revenue was €877.1 million for the first half, an increase of 53.2% on a reported basis, reflecting underlying volume growth of 15.0%. We saw price escalation across our full product portfolio, with inflationary pressure most significant for fertiliser, driven by global raw material price increases.
The Group continued to deliver strong cash generation in the period, reducing net debt to €53.7 million at 31 January 2022 compared to €158.3 million at 31 January 2021 and €264.2 million at January 2020. Our strong cashflow and debt reduction has been achieved through a sustained focus on working capital management initiatives across all business units, an improved cash/credit sales mix in the period, the positive cash collection impact of early season demand, and the benefit of €19.5 million generated from the completion of the first phase of the sale of our property in Cork, Ireland.
Although in the seasonally quieter trading period, the Group's first half performance represents a positive foundation for the full year, with an encouraging cropping profile across each of our geographies. We are conscious of the challenges of price volatility and risk in the supply chain and are taking appropriate actions to mitigate these risks where possible.
Shareholder Returns
As we continue to manage and evaluate balance sheet efficiency, and in light of the Group's continued progress during the period, we intend to launch a share buyback programme of up to €40.0 million. The buyback programme will commence on 9 March 2022 and may continue until 15 November 2022. In addition, we are pleased to announce an interim dividend of 3.15 cent per share.
Outlook
Aside from the normal weather risk, we are mindful of the price volatility and supply chain risks which could represent a challenge in the second half. However, driven by our first half performance, the Group currently expects to deliver solid growth in earnings for the full year. Consistent with previous years, we will provide an update on full year guidance in Q3."

Origin delivered an adjusted diluted earnings per share3 in H1 2022 of 4.99 cent compared to an adjusted diluted loss per share of 1.53 cent in H1 2021. On a like-for-like basis (excluding the impact of currency movements and acquisitions/disposals) the underlying increase in adjusted diluted earnings per share3 was 4.88 cent.
Group revenue
Group revenue was €877.1 million in H1 2022 compared to €572.4 million in the corresponding period last year, an increase of 53.2%. On an underlying basis at constant currency, revenues increased by €275.9 million (48.2%).
The underlying increase in agronomy services and crop input volumes, excluding crop marketing, was 15.0% in H1 2022 compared to H1 2021 (and 8.9% including crop marketing). While continuing global raw material price increases in fertiliser and feed represented over 80% of the revenue growth in the half, we also witnessed increased demand driven by a combination of forward buying by farmers and an encouraging autumn/winter planting season.
Operating profit1
Operating profit1 in H1 2022 was €11.1 million compared to €1.2 million in H1 2021. On an underlying basis at constant currency, the increase in operating profit year-on-year was €7.3 million.
Associates and joint venture2
Origin's share of the profit after interest and taxation from associates and joint venture amounted to €1.3 million, a €0.5 million increase on the prior year.
Net bank debt and financing costs
Net bank debt5 at 31 January 2022 was €53.7 million compared with €158.3 million at 31 January 2021, and is 0.61 times EBITDA4 for the twelve months to 31 January 2022. The period end net bank debt reduction is principally attributable to a sustained focus on working capital management across all business units, an improved cash/credit sales mix in the period and the positive impact of early season demand. In addition, the Group completed the first phase of the sale of our property portfolio in Cork, Ireland, generating cash flow of €19.5 million. Net finance costs amounted to €4.8 million compared to €4.5 million in the corresponding period last year. The marginal increase in net finance costs in the period reflected higher interest rates across each of the markets in which the Group operates.

Working capital
Following the seasonal investment in working capital in the period, the net cash outflow from operating activities was €41.5 million (H1 2021: €94.3 million) and there was a decrease in working capital at period end to €58.9 million (H1 2021: €101.2 million). The year-on-year net working capital movement reflects the continued focus on working capital efficiencies across the Group, with increased sales and debtor recoveries, timing of sales and the positive impact of a higher cash sales mix due to strong crop prices.
Sustainability
The Group continues to progress its 'Nurturing Growth' sustainability framework through both environmental and social initiatives. As part of our on-farm 'Green Horizons' initiative, our Agrii operations in the UK launched a new service for farmers and growers dedicated to improving soil health and the sustainability of their systems. Agrii's Soil Resilience Strategy is a new R&D-based soil service that combines physical, chemical, and biological soil assessments with scientific interpretation to develop practical solutions which help farmers and growers to maximise crop potential and become more sustainable.
In addition to strengthening our customer offering, the Group is developing targets aligned to the Science Based Targets initiative, as we continue to progress the implementation of a new environmental management system.
Dividend
We are pleased to announce that an interim dividend of 3.15 cent per share (H1 2021: 3.15 cent per share) will be paid on 24 June 2022 to shareholders on the register on 3 June 2022.
Share Buyback Programme
Origin is launching a share buyback programme to repurchase up to €40.0 million of ordinary shares. The programme will commence on 9 March 2022 and may continue until 15 November 2022 subject to market conditions, the ongoing capital requirements of the business and termination provisions customary for arrangements of this nature. The purpose of the share buyback programme is to reduce the share capital of the Company and the repurchased Ordinary Shares will be held in treasury pending their cancellation or re-issue in due course.

Origin's recovery continued in the first half of the year delivering a strong financial performance primarily driven by good early season crop protection and seed volumes. Group revenue increased by 53.2% to €877.1 million on a reported basis and by 48.2% on a constant currency basis. Operating profit and adjusted fully diluted earnings per share grew to €11.1 million and 4.99 cent, respectively. This performance was supported by a positive planting profile across our geographies with good crop establishment to date. In addition, rising global fertiliser markets, while delivering strong pricing led revenue growth, have had a modest impact on demand.

Ireland and the United Kingdom recorded increased revenues and contribution reflecting a recovery in performance in H1 2022.
The increase in revenues and profitability in the period largely reflects improved plantings and good early season volumes across our seed and crop protection portfolios. The rising fertiliser price environment resulted in a modest reduction in overall demand, with security of product supply the key focus ahead of the peak application period. On an underlying basis, at constant currency, there was a €3.3 million increase in operating profit. The increase in underlying business volumes of 10.1% was primarily driven by crop protection, feed and seed volumes.
Integrated On-Farm Agronomy Services
Integrated On-Farm Agronomy Services recorded increased revenues and contribution in the period. The increase in crop input volumes was supported by favourable in-field conditions, with encouraging levels of winter plantings, which are more input intensive than crops drilled in spring. By comparison H1 2021 volumes were weaker due to a delayed harvest and increased levels of carry over stock on-farm. Farm sentiment is generally positive, however increasing input prices and product availability may temper this in the seasonally important second half.
Total autumn and winter plantings for principal crops are estimated to be 7.2% ahead of last year at 2.6 million hectares. The area of winter wheat is estimated to be up 6.7% to 1.8 million hectares (1.7 million hectares in FY 2021) and oil seed rape up 19.0% to 0.4 million hectares (0.3 million hectares in FY 2021).
Total autumn, winter and spring plantings for the 2022 growing season are forecast to be 1.4% ahead of last year, at 4.3 million hectares. To date, mild weather conditions across the UK has resulted in good crop establishment, with crops in some areas more developed than normal as a result.
During the period, the Group enhanced our near market R&D capabilities through the acquisition of Envirofield Limited in the UK, an expert independent field-trials company specialising in agricultural and environmental research.
Digital Agricultural Services
Digital Agricultural Services continues to develop the Group's capabilities in precision farming and digital agronomy. Accelerating data-driven activities centres on benchmarking and outcome-based farm and field evidence. An exclusive partnership was agreed during the period to provide radar-based cloud-free imagery in the Group's markets from this spring. This is an industry first and will provide arable farmers a substantial advantage in sustainably optimising yield and input use.
Over 1.8 million active hectares are currently in the Group's digital platform at the end of H1 2022, an increase of 26% compared to H1 2021 (1.4 million hectares).
The priority for RHIZA, the Group's digital agronomy and precision farming operation, is strengthening in-field insights and decision-making, enhancing user functionality, and aligning Group technology to core business operations.
Business-to-Business Agri-Inputs
Our Business-to-Business Agri-Inputs division continued to recover from challenging prior year trading conditions, delivering a strong start to the financial year.
Fertiliser
While fertiliser had a reasonable result in the period, with revenue growth driven by global raw material inflation, there was a negative impact on overall demand in the period. The continuing inflationary environment for global fertiliser prices in the period was a result of increased global raw material prices and supply chain challenges. With energy prices remaining elevated and general inflationary and supply chain challenges likely to persist, we expect product availability and pricing to remain the key headwinds for H2 trading.
In addition to ensuring product availability for the important seasonal application period, the Group continues to focus on growing its speciality and bespoke nutrition product ranges.
Feed Ingredients
Feed Ingredients achieved an improved performance in H1 2022, recording higher volumes compared to H1 2021. This contribution was delivered in an inflationary environment and follows the challenging trading and operating environment experienced in FY 2021.
The Group's animal feed manufacturing associate, John Thompson & Sons Limited, in which the Group has a 50% shareholding, delivered a satisfactory performance in the period.
Amenity
The Group's Amenity business delivered an improved performance in the period, continuing the positive momentum from the first quarter. The integration of Green-tech, the UK's leading manufacturer and distributor of landscaping, forestry and ground maintenance equipment, has progressed to plan and is performing ahead of expectations.

Continental Europe recorded a €1.2 million increase in underlying operating profit in the seasonally quieter first half. Underlying business volumes increased by 18.7% in H1 2022, compared to H1 2021. There was an encouraging start to the year in each of our geographies, some of which is due to early season demand as a result of product supply and further input price inflation concerns. Overall, the autumn and winter planted area is expected to reduce marginally across our CE markets.
Poland
Poland delivered a strong contribution with increased volumes and margins across the business.
Autumn and winter plantings are forecasted to be broadly in line with FY 2021 at 5.1 million hectares. To date, mild weather has resulted in little winter damage to crops. Crop establishment is generally good across Poland except for some localised areas of oil seed rape where establishment is poor, due to unfavourable weather conditions.
The total cropping area for the 2022 growing season is expected to be broadly equivalent to last year at 8.8 million hectares. Farm sentiment is generally positive yet tempered by the impact of increasing fertiliser prices.
Romania
Romania had an improved start to the year, recording underlying business volume growth and an increased contribution in H1 2022.
Mild weather across most of Romania resulted in good winter crop establishment, with autumn and winter plantings expected to be 7.9% ahead of the prior year at 3.1 million hectares. Combined winter and spring plantings for the growing season are currently forecasted to be 0.9% ahead of last year at 8.4 million hectares.
Crop protection and fertiliser price inflation resulted in early purchasing decisions on-farm. General farm sentiment, while overall positive, is impacted by price uncertainty across a range of inputs.
Ukraine
Ukraine delivered a satisfactory result in the period in line with expectations. Overall crop establishment in the period is solid, with sufficient snow cover in place to limit crop damage.
Total autumn and winter plantings are anticipated to be 4.6% behind last year at 8.4 million hectares. This represents a more normalised level of plantings for autumn and winter. Given the uncertain conditions in Ukraine it is too early to estimate the impact on expected spring planting levels.
Following an initial temporary suspension of activities, our team in Ukraine has recommenced limited localised operations in areas away from conflict and only when deemed safe to do so. The Group's top priority is the safety and wellbeing of our colleagues and doing everything possible to support them and their families through this difficult time.
In the last two years the Group has undertaken a significant de-risking of the balance sheet in Ukraine through a sustained focus on working capital reduction. Ukraine does not represent a material contribution to overall Group profit.

Latin America delivered a strong performance in the period, recording an underlying increase in agronomy services and crop input volumes of 72.7%. The volume development and underlying growth is driven by increases in our core product range and a significant increase in controlled release fertiliser sales following the completion of the Group's new production facility in Minas Gerais in the second half of FY 2021.
Operating profit increased to €6.7 million from €3.9 million in the comparative period last year, with an underlying increase of €2.7 million.
The total cropping area dedicated to soya, Brazil's principal crop, is expected to increase by 4.4% on the prior year to 40.6 million hectares. However, despite the encouraging planting in the period, adverse weather conditions have resulted in the expected soya harvest reducing to 122.8 million tonnes from the 145.7 million tonnes initially forecasted. The harvest for maize, Brazil's secondary crop, is also expected to reduce to 21.5 million tonnes from the 29.0 million tonnes initially forecasted.

Origin Enterprises plc
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
for the six months ended 31 January 2022
1 Basis of preparation
The Group condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34), as endorsed by the EU. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared as information for the shareholders and do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements in respect of the year ended 31 July 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs. The financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2021 are available on the company's website www.originenterprises.com. Those financial statements contained an unqualified audit report.
The Group condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 31 January 2022 and the comparative figures for the six months ended 31 January 2021 are unaudited and have not been reviewed by the Auditors. The summary financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2021 represent an abbreviated version of the Group's full accounts for that year.
A comprehensive review of the Group's performance for the six months ended 31 January 2022 is included in the financial highlights included on pages 5 to 12. The group's business is seasonal and is heavily weighted towards the second half of the financial year.
2 Going concern
The Group condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis of accounting. The Directors have considered the Group's business activities and how it generates value, together with the main trends and factors likely to affect future development, business performance and position of the Group including the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic. Having reassessed the principal risks facing the Group, the Directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage these risks successfully. There are no material uncertainties that cast a significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern over a period of at least 12 months from the date of these financial statements.
The Directors report that they have satisfied themselves that the Group is a going concern, having adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In forming this view, the Directors have reviewed the Group's forecast for a period not less than 12 months and the long-tern plans, and have taken into account the cash flow implications, including capital expenditure, and compared these with the Group's borrowing facilities.
3 Accounting policies
The Group condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies as set out on pages 115 to 122 of the Group's Annual Report for the year ended 31 July 2021.
There are a number of new standards which are also effective from 1 August 2021. The following amendments, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ('IFRIC'), are effective for the Group for the first time in the current financial period and where relevant have been adopted by the Group:
· Amendments to IFRS 9 'Financial instruments', IAS 39 'Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement', IFRS 7 'Financial instruments: Disclosures', IFRS 4 'Insurance contracts' and IFRS 16 'Leases' - Interest Rate Benchmark Reform (phase 2);
· Amendments to 'IFRS 16 Leases' - COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021
Adoption of the standards above has had no material impact on the Group condensed interim consolidated financial statements during the period. The Group has not applied early adoption of any standards for which the effective date is not yet required.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
for the six months ended 31 January 2022
4 Reporting currency
The Group condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in euro (denoted by the symbol '€') and rounded to the nearest thousand, which is the functional currency of the parent. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end date are translated to functional currency at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the Consolidated Income Statement.
The principal exchange rates used for translation of results and balance sheets into euro were as follows:

5 Segment information
IFRS 8, 'Operating Segments', requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ('CODM') in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. Three operating segments have been identified: (1) Ireland and the United Kingdom, (2) Continental Europe and (3) Latin America.
Ireland and the United Kingdom
This segment includes the Group's wholly owned Irish and UK based Business-to-Business Agri-Inputs operations, Integrated Agronomy and On-Farm Services operations and Digital Agricultural Services business. In addition, this segment includes the Group's Associate and joint venture undertakings.
Continental Europe
This segment includes the Group's Business-to-Business Agri-Inputs operations, Integrated Agronomy and On-Farm Services operations in Poland, Romania and Ukraine.
Latin America
This segment includes the Group's 65 per cent controlling interest in the Brazilian based speciality nutrition and crop inputs business, Fortgreen Commercial Agricola Ltda.
Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included below. Performance is measured based on segment operating profit as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Group's CODM, being the Origin Executive Directors. Segment operating profit is used to measure performance, as this information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the Group's segments.
