Dear Shareholders & Stakeholders,

It is always a pleasure to pen my message for Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd (F&NHB)’s annual reports. This year, I do so with added pride as 2023 marks F&N’s 140 th anniversary. This milestone not only commemorates our legacy but also celebrates the enduring relationship cultivated with Malaysians. Beautifully encapsulated by our nationwide campaign “Kisah Kita… Selamanya”, the theme signifies the ways in which we have been there with Malaysians, and for Malaysians, celebrating their cherished moments for as long as any of us can remember.

Statement

Chief Executive Officer

Dear Shareholders & Stakeholders,

The financial year ended 30 September 2023 (FY2023) was one of celebration. We celebrated F&N’s 140 th anniversary; and we celebrated the coming together as ONE Group, including our recent acquisitions of Cocoaland and Sri Nona. And perhaps more significantly, we celebrated the strength of our fundamentals, which provided us the resilience to weather another challenging year and perform even better than we did in FY2019, pre-Covid.
