Sector Overview of the Tourism Industry & Hospitality Business
2013 was a record-breaking year for Thailands tourism industry, with the number of international visitors to the kingdom rising
by 20% to 27 million, despite ongoing political concerns especially towards the end of the year. International tourist arrivals
brought in Baht 1.2 trillion (USD $37.42 Billion) in tourism income, an increase of 19% over the prior year. Rich naturalresources and a wide variety of places of interest, including beaches, mountains, heritage sites and the city of Bangkok have
afforded Thailand an enviable profile as a multi-purpose destination for a diverse range of travelers.
The Tourism Authority of Thailandexpects to further propel the tourism sector up the value chain, enhance revenue and attract
greater volume of visitors to more than 28 millionarrivals in 2014. Working in tandem with the private sector initiatives of hotel
and restaurant operators, together with low-cost airlines, Thailands tourism sector, whose direct and indirect contribution makes
up more than 16%of Thai GDP, looks poised for further growth.
Beyond Thailand, Minor Internationals expansion strategy to tap high-growth markets has the added advantage of portfolio
diversification. For instance, their international presence affords them greater market independence from Thailands eco-political
fluctuations, thus buffering their hospitality business from specific domestic shocks.
The Indian Ocean also presents abundant opportunities for the expansion of the hospitality business. In 2013, tourist arrivals to
the Maldives were up 17.4%over the prior year, due largely to greater interest in the destination from China and Russia. The
Fourth Tourism Master Plan of the Maldives, which was launched in 2013, articulates a 5-year strategic agenda and action plan
agreed by both public and private players in the tourism industry. To the North, Sri Lanka also stands on the brink of rapid
economic affluence. Since the end of civil strife in 2009, reassuring foundations have been laid for the countrys future economic
prosperity. Sri Lanka is experiencing a renaissance of arrivals of upscale and luxury travelers, attracted to the nations beaches,
culture, heritage and wildlife. With 4 hotels currently in operation in Sri Lanka, Minor Hotel Group has contributed to and
participated in Sri Lankas tourism re-emergence, and is very well positioned for the future.

Sector Overview of the Food Industry
2013 proved to be a year of mixed fortunes for restaurant operators, as headline domestic consumption grew slower than the
preceding year and the industry underwent intensifying competition, as well as political demonstration in Bangkok during the last
two months of the year. Thailands moderate rate of headline growth was largely a consequence of high base effect from 2012,when various government stimulus policies took effect and spending surged following 2011 flooding.
Simultaneously, the arrival of new small and medium-sized restaurant operators, combined with the expansion of existing
restaurant operators in both Bangkok and up-country led to growing competition, as evidenced by the proliferation of marketing
and promotional campaigns offered to consumers.
However, Minor Food Group remains fairly resilient in the face of competitive pressure, as the group enjoys two competitive
advantages:
It commands dominant market share in most food categories and segments in which it operates.
It also benefit from the solid operational platform and business network.
Together, scale and efficiency prove formidable, and we remain well-positioned to reap further growth in the years to come.
In 2013, revenue of the Minor Food Group increased by 16%, primarily the result of same-store-sales growth of 0.9%, together
with outlet expansion of 12%during the year, and consolidation of Riverside since its acquisition in December 2012. Net profit of
the group rose by 27%in 2013, resulting in improved net profit margin over the previous year, from increased operating leverage
benefiting from higher sales flow-through and the turnaround of the China business, coupled with cost savings.
All food brands exhibited strong performance with total system-wide sales increasing by 13.8% to Baht 34.4 billion in 2013.
Minor Food Group currently operates 1,544restaurants in Thailand, Singapore, Australia, China and 15 other countries under a
diverse portfolio of 9brands. Of total restaurants, 814are company-owned while the remaining 730outlets are franchised.

Sector Overview of Retail Trading Industry
In 2013, total revenue from retail trading and contract manufacturing increased by 6% while profit grew by 26%, primarily
attributable to the improved performance of the higher margin fashion business, the post-flood return to standard operations at
the NMT manufacturing plant together with the effective cost management programs.
The lifestyle fashion and cosmetics distribution business saw its core profit increase significantly by 90% from the prior year,
primarily driven by outlet expansion, in particular Esprit, Charles & Keith and Gap. NMT Limited, the contract manufacturing
business of MINT, posted growth in core revenues (excluding insurance claims from the flood received in 2012) of 9% in 2013,
with the resumption of full operations throughout 2013, following a half-year partial operation after the crippling floods of the
fourth quarter of 2011. Revenue growth in turn resulted in turnaround of profit for the same reasons above, coupled with Minors
stringent cost optimization plan.
