Cobram Estate Sets Sights on US Growth With Expanded Premium Olive Oil Supply Cobram Estate Olives is focusing on long-term growth in the US premium olive oil market, positioning its products toward health-conscious consumers.
The company is using a vertically integrated model, with production assets in both Australia and California, to diversify its supply base.
Management is allocating capital to expand production capacity, increase brand recognition and build out distribution to reach more US retail and food-service customers.
The key takeaway is that Cobram Estate is leaning into the US as a core growth market, supported by control over its supply chain and marketing efforts aimed at premium buyers.
You should watch how effectively the company converts this investment in capacity and branding into shelf space, sales volumes and pricing power, especially given competition from established European producers and any easing in current supply challenges. Major Estimate Revision • Apr 13

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 21% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Board Change • Feb 01

Cobram Estate Olives Announces Completion of 2022 Australian Olive Harvest Cobram Estate Olives Limited completed its 2022 Australian olive harvest this week. Yielding 9.5 million litres of olive oil, the 2022 Australian crop exceeded the Company's internal budget by approximately 15% and is 53% higher than the previous lower-yielding crop year in 2020 (2020: 6.2 million litres). The increase in output reflects the combined effect of an increase in olive oil yield as the groves continue to mature; improved management practices; and a mostly favourablegrowing season. The additional profit generated by the larger than expected 2022 Australian olive oil crop is likely to offset cost pressures being experienced across the group, particularly in the USA. Independent evaluations of baseline carbon position across entire Australian operations confirm that not only the Company is neutral in terms of carbon emissions but also is able to remove approximately 4kg of CO2 for every litre of oil produced and sold. The 2022 harvest of 9.5 million litres of olive oil was a strong improvement on the previous lower-yielding year in 2020 (2020: 6.2 million litres) and exceeded the Company's budget by approximately 15%. The substantial increase in yield versus 2020 (our last lower-yielding crop year) reflects several factors including: The age profile of the Company's Australian olive groves, with the groves increasing yield as they progress towards maturity; The Company's program of continual improvement in both olive growing and milling driving higher average yields of its mature orchards across all three farms; The favourable growing conditions experienced during the season; and The positive impact of the Company's investment in risk mitigants, including the significant investment in frost fans in recent years.
