The Board of Directors’ Statement
Dear Shareholders,
According to the forecast, the COVID-19 outbreak will continue to affect all industries from the end of 2019 to 2020.
Tourism is one of the industries being affected severely, and 68% of the Company’s revenue is from export, wherein the
export to China accounts for approximately 38% of total revenue. Upon the pandemic, most of the countries, including
China, cut consumption. Therefore the product orders have been contracted from the previous year. Domestic sales income
also dropped since there were no foreign arrivals throughout 2020, especially Chinese tourists who like our products.
Despite the USA’s sales increased, the margin still too far to compensate for the loss upon COVID-19 outbreak. Overall,
the Company’s consolidated income in 2020 decreased from THB 4,948.31 million in 2019 to THB 3,860.47 million, or
a cutback by approximately 22%. When combined subsidiaries’ revenue, total revenue dropped from the year 2019 by
about 25%. In other words, total revenue decreased from THB 5,297.33 million in 2019 to THB 3,999.27 million in 2020.
The dramatic drop in income in 2020 caused the increasing cost of sales from 72.14% of revenue in 2019 to 74.24%
of total revenue in 2020. The Group’s cost of sales increased from 71.48% of total revenue in 2019 to 73.99% in 2020.
However, the figures were considerably moderate despite the higher cost of production with the Management’s diplomatic
effort and control on the cost of production. It is estimated that in 2021, the cost of sales compared to revenue will
decrease upon improved total turnover. One major factor is the cost reduction after relocating the partial production
base from the Nopphawong factory to the Rojana factory in the middle of 2020. Another factor is the machine’s use in
the replacement of human labor, which enhances production performance while saving costs.
According to the main reasons above, the consolidated net profit declined from 2019 by 21.41% or a cut of THB
429.29 million in 2019 to THB 337.38 million in 2020. Meanwhile, the subsidiaries’ net profit for the year 2020 decreased
from 2019 by 33.16% or a reduction from THB 361.84 million in 2019 to 241.87 million. Despite the substantial decrease
in the Company’s net profit, we consider the shareholders’ interest and expectation. The dividend payment rate has
been provided at the highest possible rate when compared to the net profit. The Company hence strives to manage
adequate financial liquidity and robust and stabilised financial status.
In the year 2021, we expect the COVID-19 impact will lessen, the overall situation will be improved, and the turnover
will grow from 2020. In addition to the main product’s turnover expected to rise, there is a new product - milk tea which
released at the end of the previous year. Upon positive feedback on the latest product, we will release a few more
new products to boost sales volume. At the exact times, the Company will manage to reduce the cost of production
continued from the previous year and resolve the drop of sales overseas.
The Board of Directors has approved maximum effort to implement driving strategy to become the absolute
leader in the food and snack industry. The Management will address the importance of risk management, considering
sustainability related to society and the environment, which has significant risk factors to our business operation. The
Management will support and coordinate in considering investment projects or business expansion to ensure prudence
and caution,
On behalf of the Board of Directors, we would like to thank everyone for your business’s support to be more
prosperous and stable. My appreciation also to all board members, executives, customers, vendors, financial institutions,
and relevant government agencies to ensure that it will conduct business with corporate governance, taking into account
the interest and importance of all stakeholders.

Business Overview
The Company Group, having Taokaenoi Food & Marketing Public Company Limited as a parent company with
core business as a manufacturer and distributor of seaweed snack under the brand “Taokaenoi.” Seaweed snack
product accounts for approximately 95% of total products divided into four groups: crispy seaweed, grilled seaweed,
roasted seaweed, and tempura seaweed. In addition to the Company’s main products, there are also non-seaweed
products such as Whey Protein products, Taiwanese milk tea - Just Drink. Our subsidiaries’ revenue includes “Taokaenoi
Land” souvenir shops and Hinoya restaurants, which account for approximately 5% of total sales revenue. North
America
Sales revenue
During the past three years, revenue from sales was THB 3,983 million in 2020, THB 5,267 million in 2019, and
THB 3,427 million in 2018, respectively. The sales revenue in 2020 declined by -24%. The leading cause was the
COVID-19 outbreak, affecting both local and overseas markets. Furthermore, the reduced revenue in 2019 from 2018
was due to the change of sales representatives in China.
Cost of distribution
The Company’s cost of distribution in 2020 was THB 442 million, THB 768 million in 2019, and THB 672 million,
respectively, in percentage 11.1%, 14.6%, and 12.4% of sales revenue, respective. In 2020, the Company adjusted
its marketing strategy and sales promotion to managing the distribution cost to correlate with the sales volume and
respond to the changing situation. The Company focused on the online market, which was our central channel, and
met the target group where the feedback was quite positive with a clear outcome. As a result, the cost of a distribution
cut by 3.5%, while the cost of distribution in 2019 increased by 2.2% compared to 2018. The variation resulted from
creating brand recognition in potential markets such as China and the United States.
Administrative expenses
Administrative expenses in 2020 accounted for THB 307 million, THB 344 million in 2019, and THB 311 million
in 2018 or 7.7%, 6.5%, and 5.7% when calculated in proportion of sales revenue. The majority of administrative
expenses were fixed expenses which included salary and wages. When considering the value, the administrative
expense recorded the lowest within the past three years due to a compelling correlation between expenditures
and decreased sales volume.
For the year 2020, the Company and subsidiaries had cash flow received from operating activities THB 1007.1
million. The primary transaction was profit before corporate income tax amounted to THB 273.0 million. After

The Coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic is continuing to evolve, resulting in an economic slowdown
and adverse impact on most businesses and industries. This situation may bring uncertainties and have an impact on
the environment in which the group operates. Nevertheless, the Group’s management has continued to monitor the
ongoing situation and regularly assessed the financial impact in respect of the valuation of assets, provisions and
contingent liabilities.
2. BASIS FOR PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF THE CONSOLIDATED AND SEPARATE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
2.1 The Group and the Company maintain their accounting records in Thai Baht and prepare their statutory
financial statements in the Thai language in conformity with Thai Financial Reporting Standards and accounting practices
generally accepted in Thailand.
2.2 The Group’s and the Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Thai
Accounting Standard (“TAS”) No. 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”, which was effective for financial periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2020, and the Regulation of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) dated October
2, 2017, regarding “The Preparation and Submission of Financial Statements and Reports for the Financial Position
and Results of Operations of the Listed Companies B.E. 2560” and the Notification of the Department of Business
Development regarding “The Brief Particulars in the Financial Statements (No. 3) B.E. 2563” dated December 26, 2019,
which was effective for financial periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 onwards.
The accounting standards adopted by the Company may not be in conformity with accounting principles generally
130 2020 Annual Report
accepted in other countries because the financial statements of the Company are not intended to present the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and accounting
practices generally accepted in countries other than Thailand. Accordingly, the financial statements have not been
designed for those who are not familiar with accounting principles and accounting practices generally accepted
in Thailand.
For the convenience of readers, an English translation of the financial statements has been prepared from
Thai language statutory financial statements which are issued for domestic financial reporting purposes. In the
event of any conflict or interpretation difference between two different languages, the Thai version of consolidated
and separate financial statements prepared in accordance with Thailand laws supersedes.
2.3 The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except as disclosed
in the significant accounting policies (see Note 3).
2.4 The consolidated and separate statements of financial position as at December 31, 2019, presented
herein for comparison, have been derived from the consolidated and separate financial statements of the Company
for the year then ended which had been previously audited.
2.5 Thai Financial Reporting Standards affecting the presentation and disclosure in the current year’s
financial statements
During the year, the Group has adopted the revised and new financial reporting standards and guidelines on
accounting issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions which become effective for fiscal years beginning
on or after January 1, 2020. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding
International Financial Reporting Standards, with most of the changes directed towards revision of wording and
terminology, and provision of interpretations and accounting guidance to users of standards. The adoption of
these financial reporting standards does not have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements.
However, the new standards which become effective for this fiscal year and involve changes to key principles
are summarized below:
2.5.1 Groups of Financial Instruments Standards
These group of Standards make stipulations relating to the classification of financial instruments and their
measurement at fair value or amortized cost; taking into account the type of instrument, the characteristics of the
contractual cash flows and the Company’s business model, the calculation of impairment using the expected credit
loss method, and the concept of hedge accounting. These also include stipulations regarding the presentation
and disclosure of financial instruments.
In the current year, the Group has initially applied the Groups of Financial Instruments Standards. The
Group has elected to recognize the cumulative effects of the initial application of TFRS 9 as an adjustment to
the opening balance of retained earnings of the reporting period.
TFRS 9 introduced new requirements for:
- Classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities;
- Impairment of financial assets; and
- General hedge accounting
The Group has applied TFRS 9 in accordance with the transition provisions set out in TFRS 9 as follows:
2.8 Thai Financial Reporting Standards announced in the Royal Gazette but not yet effective
The Federation of Accounting Professions has issued the Notification regarding Thai Accounting
Standards, Thai Financial Reporting Standards, Thai Accounting Standards Interpretation and Thai Financial
Reporting Standard Interpretation, which have been announced in the Royal Gazette and will be effective
for the financial statements with reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021 onwards. These
financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Re-
porting Standards, with most of the changes directed towards revisions to references to the Conceptual
Framework in TFRSs, except for the revisions of definitions and accounting requirements as follows:
Definition of Materiality
The revised definition of materiality resulted in the amendment of Thai Accounting Standards No. 1
“Presentation of Financial Statements” and Thai Accounting Standards No. 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in
Accounting Estimates and Errors”, including other financial reporting standards which refer to materiality. This
amendment is intended to make the definition of materiality to comply with the Conceptual Framework which
requires a prospective method for such amendment. Earlier application is permitted.
The fair value of unit trusts is determined from their net asset value. The fair value of
debt securities is determined based on yield rates quoted by the Thai Bond Market Association.
The weighted average method is used for computation of the cost of investments.
In the event the Group reclassifies an investment from one type to another, such investment
will be readjusted to its fair value as at the reclassification date. The difference between the carrying
amount of the investment and the fair value on the date of reclassification is recorded in profit or
loss or as other components of shareholders’ equity, depending on the type of investment that is
reclassified.
3.10 Goodwill
Goodwill is initially recorded equals the excess of cost of business combination over the fair
value of the net assets acquired. If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the cost of busi-
ness combination, the excess is immediately recognized as gain in profit or loss.
Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired from a business combination is allo-
cated to each of the Company’s cash generating units (or group of cash-generating units) that is ex-
pected to benefit from the combination. The Company estimates the recoverable amount of each
cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) to which the goodwill relates. Where the re-
coverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is
recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses relating to goodwill is not reversed in future periods.
3.17 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event and
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Deferred tax
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period, using the tax rates enacted at
the end of the reporting period.
The Group recognizes deferred tax liabilities for all taxable temporary differences but recognizes
deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent
that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deductible temporary
differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilized.
At each reporting date, the Group reviews and reduces the carrying amount of deferred tax assets
to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or
part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized.

In April 2019, the Company has converted this loan of USD 507,000 (equivalent to Baht 16.34 million)

The normal credit term given to customers of the Group ranges from 30 to 90 days.
In 2020, the Group measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to
lifetime ECL. The expected credit losses on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix
by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial
position.
There has been no change in the estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during
the current reporting period.
The following table details the risk profile of trade receivables based on the Group’s provision
matrix. As the Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns
for different customer segments, the provision for loss allowance based on past due status is not
further distinguished between the Group’s different customer segments.
