STRATEGIC FOCUS AREA
EXTERNALISATION
Focus on the investigation of beneficial opportunities globally (outside
the borders of South Africa) and expansion into these new,
lower risk jurisdictions.
Objectives
� Diversify shareholders’ income streams.
� Derisking to lower-risk countries.
� Given the uncertain economic and political conditions in South
Africa, the focus is currently on international transactions.
Top-of-mind risks
� Political and economic climate risk.
� Market size and market share risk.
� Credit, liquidity and market risk.
� Weather and climate risk.
� Urbanisation, scarcity and retention of skills risk.
� Transition and customer risk.
� Diversification and agricultural industry risk.
� Unique competitor risk.

Looking ahead
� It remains part of Senwes’ strategy to continue to simultaneously
externalise and diversify through expansion into new, lower risk,
markets (outside of South Africa). Possible targets are actively
monitored in order to identify the most beneficial opportunities
and the optimal times to pursue them.
Reflecting on the progress to date
Various beneficial international opportunities have been
identified and are being evaluated.
