A proud history
Suriname, which was a Dutch colony at the time, did not have its own brewery. The brewery was officially opened in October 1955 by His Royal Highness, Prince Bernhard (later the Queen’s Consort). At the end of December 1955 the company produced the first PARBO BIER. Shareholder of the first hour was Amstel brewery, which was acquired by HEINEKEN in 1968.
The Surinamese beer was of excellent quality right from the start, as evidenced by the Prix d’Excellence award during the World Beer Fair in Ghent, Belgium. Quality
has always played an important role in the company’s strategy, and still does to this day. Hence, Surinaamse Brouwerij was one of the first breweries in South and North America to achieve both the ISO and the HACCP certificate. Nowadays Surinaamse Brouwerij strives to produce and sell beer that meets international standards. The strategy is aimed at achieving profitable and sustainable growth in order to strengthen the position of the business. Surinaamse Brouwerij is thereby seeking an optimum return for shareholders, consistent satisfaction amongst customers and
consumers, optimum welfare for employees and socially responsible business practices and engagement.Surinaamse Brouwerij brews, produces, sells and distributes PARBO Bier, PARBO Radler, PARBO Light and PARBO Chiller for the Suriname market. Surinaamse Brouwerij also exports PARBO Bier, PARBO Chiller and PARBO Radler to a select number of countries. The company imports and distributes the products Heineken®, Desperados, Sol and Vitamalt in Suriname through its subsidiary.
The roots of Surinaamse Brouwerij N.V. lie in the Dutch province of Zeeland, where brothers Piet and Arthur Dumoleyn made the decision in around 1950 to continue their beer-brewing activities in Suriname.

A well-established tradition at Surinaamse Brouwerij is that every meeting involving three people or more starts with the topic of Safety. Surinaamse Brouwerij has a strong focus and a good reputation with regard to safety, both within HEINEKEN worldwide and in the region in which we operate. In 2017 we achieved a respectable number of 1,082 accident-free days, which is a record and an amazing achievement. Achieving a record is noteworthy, but it is not our goal. The goal is to work as safely as possible so that our employees can return home safely to their families at the end of the working day. Surinaamse Brouwerij works with external parties (contractors,
suppliers, partners with whom we do business) and from within our organisation we demand that they too comply with our rules and are constantly alert to the issue of safety. Unfortunately we suffered two accidents in 2017 that show yet again that accidents can happen despite our best efforts. Although regrettable, the two accidents have at least refocused our entire organisation.
2017 was a reasonably good year overall, and Surinaamse Brouwerij was able to achieve a reasonable operating result under the macro-economic conditions. The growth in our sales by 24% combined with our ability to limit the rise in costs has resulted in an increase in the Operating Profit result by 3.8%, and a reduction in the financial costs resulted in a 37% increase in the Net Profit.
As part of the masterplan to prepare our brewery for the future we launched a major Supply Chain project in 2017, namely the construction of a new brewhouse. This project will significantly expand our production capacity. We also started the expansion of our storage and warehousing capacity on the brewery site. We also continued to innovate in 2017 and launched new products including Radler Cherry and Ginger, the Mexican beer brand Sol and a new can pack type for the Heineken brand.
We implemented significant organisational changes in 2017 in order to make our company more effective, including splitting the Logistcs and Warehouse activities into two separate departments, introducing our Corporate Affairs & Facility Management department, and merging the Sales, Trade Marketing and Marketing departments into one department, namely the Commerce department.
These organisational changes have helped to strengthen our Leadership Team (LT) with additional responsibilities and empowerment. The LT now consists of 24 colleagues who all head a department. The LT, of which the Management Team (MT) is a part, providesthe the actual leadership of the brewery.
The LT has conducted a number of creative thought and discussion sessions over the past year in order to redefine our three year strategy. The aim was to do this together so that we are all committed to the changes that are needed in order to be able to successfully implement the new strategy. All change can offer something positive, and in this case it resulted in a new mission and vision and 2020 strategy entitled ‘Good to Great’ (GtG).
GtG consists of four pillars. Firstly we will invest in our staff by developing them and keeping them engaged with the business.
Foreword from the Managing Director2017 was a year of change for Surinaamse Brouwerij...
Secondly we will commit ourselves commercially to growing sales. This does not simply involve selling more product, but also increasing the quality of the sales by focusing on the premium segment of the market. Thirdly we will perform efficiently from start to finish. That means a cost-conscious operation, efficient production, better budget management and tighter supervision within the Supply Chain from everything that we put in through to what comes out. Fourthly we want to focus specifically on a better Suriname with our sustainability agenda ‘Brewing a Better World’ by doing business in our beautiful country in a socially responsible way.
We think it is worth emphasising that the discussions with the trade union over the past year have again
been constructive. We have mutually agreed to spread salary increase in alignment with the results achieved in view of the macro-economic situation. Our trade union recognises that it is sometimes necessary to take austerity measures. However, we have also agreed that if the opportunity arises we will also allow the employees to share in the good results that are achieved. We are also enabling our retired employees to share in this; respect for elders is one of the defining aspects of Surinamese culture.
2018Looking forward to 2018 the organization of Surinaamse Brouwerij will continue to develop, and we will also continue to launch new products. We hope to be able to sample the first brew from the new brewhouse in October. In this
way Surinaamse Brouwerij will continue to change and improve in close collaboration between all the departments with engaged and motivated employees.

Management ReportFinancial results
In macro-economic terms, the crisis in 2017 has not yet come to an end, but its ferocity has diminished somewhat. Gross National Product has developed as follows: -10.8% in 2016, -1.2% in 2017 and the expectation for 2018 is +1.2%. At the end of 2017 the average annual inflation was 22%. Although the USD/SRD exchange rate stabilised in 2017 at SRD 7.50, the average annual exchange rate compared to the average for 2016 rose by 21% from SRD 6.3 to SRD 7.6.
Despite the ongoing crisis, Surinaamse Brouwerij has again completed a reasonably good year. The net result rose by 37%, which can be explained by a number of factors.
The growth in our sales by 24% was partly driven by a total increase in volume of 2.1% and the ongoing effect of the price rises implemented in 2016, together with
one price increase with effect from 1 October 2017.
This increase was only part of our portfolio, namely Parbo Regular, the 1 litre returnable packaging and the 50cl and 33cl cans. The increased volume mainly resulted from the growth of the Parbo range and the Radler and Desperados innovations.
The total cost of ingredients, raw materials, consumables and services rose by a total of 39%. The increased cost mostly resulted from the average rise in the exchange rate of 22% and increased purchase prices on part of our imported beer range, partly offset by our cost-saving programme for ingredients and packaging materials.
The cost-saving programme entitled ‘Refuel for Growth’ is directed from the regional head office and is designed to stimulate profit growth.

The increase in costs for our services was driven by an average increase in marketing costs by 78%, the costs of energy and water by 45%, maintenance costs by 103% and other general costs by 23%.
The marketing costs mainly rose as a result of the costs of developing our new TV commercial (which was launched in 2018), supporting our innovation programme and the use of a new accounting rule whereby all POS materials are recorded as costs on arrival in the warehouse whilst previously, these materials were only entered as costs when they were used.
The maintenance costs doubled in 2017 versus 2016 as a result of the maintenance that was deferred in 2016 and exchange rate increase.
The higher costs of energy and water are a result of an increase in water charges by 100%, petrol and diesel costs by 25% and crude oil costs by 120%.

Personnel costs rose by 24%. This is partly explained by an average increase in salaries by 37%, the costs of expats rose by 12% and medical expenses rose by 40%.
The increase in the depreciation costs by 55% was mainly caused by the reduction of the lifespan of the 1 litre returnable bottle from 7 to 3 years. In line with our investment programme, we spent SRD 55 million on - amongst other things - safe operation in the production environment, expanding our warehouses, replacing part of the machinery and vehicle fleet, returnable packaging materials and sub-zero refrigerators. We also started the development of a new brewhouse, which will be completed in October 2018.
As a result of the growth in sales revenues on the one hand and the increase in costs on the other hand, our operating result rose by 3.8% compared to 2016, which resulted in a growth of the net result by 37%
as a result of a reduction in financial costs. This was caused by lower exchange rate differences (-75%) partly offset by higher interest costs (+104%). The lower exchange rate differences resulted from the application of the group accounting policies whereby unrealised exchange rate differences on group loans are included in the item ‘Shareholders’ Equity’ on the balance sheet.
The higher interest costs materialized partly from group loans for a total of EUR 12 million at the end of 2017, and partly from a higher amount of interest paid arising from the provision for medical expenses.

Developments within theSupply Chain department
Many operational and staffing changes took place in the Supply Chain department in 2017. We worked hard on the introduction of new products together with new packaging materials. All the preparations have been made for the major construction work which will take place in 2018. There was intensive collaboration with other disciplines in order to improve the operating result in the short and long term. We also had a ‘reality check’ when we suffered two accidents in the brewery after 1,082 accident-free days. In short, it was a eventful year for the company.
Safety has the highest priority in the brewery, particularly in the Supply Chain. In 2017 we were well on our way to our third year without accidents, but unfortunately accidents occurred on 11 October and 30 December. Investigations into the cause found - as with most accidents - that human error was the most important underlying cause. We have used toolbox sessions to increase the employees’ alertness and one of the victims also shared his story with all employees during the brewery day. This has had a big impact.
The many construction activities in the brewery meant that we also had to put extra focus heavily on contractor safety in 2017. We invited all 16 parties working in the brewery to a number of meetings at which
we explained why safety has the highest priority and how we are implementing that. These sessions not only ensured that safety awareness increased, but also improved the collaboration with the contractors.
Quality is also very important to us. We are constantly measuring and analysing our products and processes so that we can offer our customers the best product. Every year we are audited by the prestigious lower case institute, which spends a week carefully evaluating our processes and quality during the brewing, fermentation, maturation, packaging, sale and distribution of beer. The outcome of the audit in November was that we meet the highest qualification criteria and have thereby extended our ISO 9001 and FSSC 22000 certificates. In addition to the audit, our quality department made a major contribution to the realisation of the two new Radler flavours that we launched in 2017.
We introduced the HEINEKEN ‘Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) programme in 2017 with the aim of optimising the supply and demand between Sales and Supply Chain departments, with the prerequisites of looking 6 and 12 months ahead and never being ‘out of stock’. This programme also encourages us to collaborate more efficiently and
effectively in order to make the right decisions for the business.Our contribution to the ‘Refuel for Growth’ cost-saving programme was the considerable cost saving on ingredients and packaging materials which was achieved in collaboration with the Finance and Procurement departments. By making use of our regional contacts we were able to improve our contracts with current suppliers and/or switch to other suppliers in order to achieve cheaper purchase prices.
Although the Commerce and Support departments are operating
temporarily from the Ringweg location, the aforementioned multidisciplinary projects together with our 2020 strategy resulted in more regular collaboration, and this benefited the operating result in many areas.
Over recent years we have worked hard to draw up the Masterplan which describes all the construction work and production modifications required to get our brewery ready for the future. The first steps were taken in 2017 in realising the Masterplan, including preparations for the construction of a new
brewhouse in order to increase our production capacity and the expansion of our warehouse storage capacity for ingredients, materials and finished products. The plan is for Surinaamse Brouwerij to be fully equipped for the future with the new ‘state of the art’ brewhouse by the end of 2018.

Commercial insights
Surinaamse Brouwerij is always innovating, and this year we have again launched new product innovations, namely Radler ginger and cherry and Radler lime in a new 33cl can packaging. The trick is to continue to surprise, innovate and to ensure that PARBO Bier maintains its brand value.
We have also introduced Sol, a refreshing Mexican beer, to Suriname, and we introduced the Heineken® 25cl can in order to offer the ‘premium’ segment a more affordable product.
Simultaneous to rolling out our innovation programme, we have devoted a lot of time to in-store promotions. We have invested substantially in the number of merchandisers in order to provide selected stores with the right promotional displays.
We have also rolled out our ‘Excellent Outlet Execution Strategy’ further, whereby the focus has been placed on the ‘Picture of Success’ in our sales outlets, often defined by brand. For example, this means that the PARBO brand is always visible in the same high quality manner in all stores, with features including sub-zero refrigerators.
Our existing programme to build sales outlets domestically continuedin 2017. Hence we have established another 4 outlets in partnership with local entrepreneurs in various
districts at strategic locations on the water or near the river which are also visited by many tourists. Apart from the fact that this enables us to provide local consumers with fresh and cold beer, Surinaamse Brouwerij is thereby also fulfilling its responsibility to collect the empty bottles that local residents can bring to these locations.
The ‘Revenue Management’ (RM) programme was launched from our regional head office in order to grow our revenue. The aim of this programme is to respond to consumer behaviour with price, packaging and availability of the right product in such a way that extra revenue is generated.
The RM and S&OP programme offer us the opportunity to predict much better from within Commerce what the expectations are so that we can achieve efficiency gains in procurement and stock control. This will result in predictability and structure and improved collaboration between Commerce, Finance and Supply Chain.
One of our GtG projects which was launched in 2017 is the ‘customer in our heart’ project. With this project we have started working in an even more service-oriented way, namely from ‘Good to Great’. We have carried out a lot of research in order to improve our service as perceived by customers. The first results of this will become visible in 2018.

Our employees
Over the past few years, Surinaamse Brouwerij has adopted the ‘Performance Management’ cycle, in which every employee is given targets to achieve every year. We recognise that the targets are challenging, partly because we work in an environment which is constantly changing and requires adaptation.
In practice not everyone is able to meet the (new) expectations that are set. That is why this year we have introduced the personal improvement plan with the aim of helping employees with ongoing lagging performance to get on top of their job again.Surinaamse Brouwerij does not have an inherent clear ‘feedback’ culture. It is important to formalise both personal development and personal improvement.
The aim is positive: we are working to support people in a changing world and offer them the right tools for the future.
As a company, Surinaamse Brouwerij again achieved high scores in the Climate Survey study in 2017. Employees and management shape the work together, and both sides need to be engaged with the process. With an engagement index of 83% amongst all employees, we
EmployeeEngagement Index
Our score
83%
achieved a high score compared to other organisations within HEINEKEN worldwide. At 1.58% the absenteeism percentage is very low compared to other organisations. This figure is also fairly consistent as a result of good effective policies. Surinaamse Brouwerij implemented many changes in staffing of the organisation in 2017. The organisation has 112 employees and around 70 staff employed through contractors both of whom we want to offer the opportunity to continue to develop. Last year we were able to transfer 16 colleagues to another role internally, including 11 promotions.
Changes in the organisational structure and the departure of a number of people also allowed us to hire 13 new talented colleagues with the training, knowledge and experience needed to further strengthen our organisation.
We are enormously proud of the fact that for the first time in history we have been able to transfer two colleagues from Surinaamse Brouwerij to other HEINEKEN organisations outside Suriname, one to Curaçao and one to the Netherlands.
We have been able to fill many positions with young Surinamese talent, and employees can also continue to develop at their current level. The opportunities and possibilities for development offered to local Surinamese
colleagues at Surinaamse Brouwerij have a positive effect on these employees themselves and on the outside world.
Surinaamse Brouwerij has a good understanding with the trade union, which has also shown leadership with regard to the employees and organisation, and partly thanks to that attitude, we were able to conclude a good Collective Labour Agreement in May 2017.
A lot of time has been devoted to developing and positioning the LT over the past year. We have worked jointly on team-building, which has been supported by the Insights Discovery model amongst other things. This model is a simple colour model that provides insight into one another’s behavioural preferences and is intended to create mutual understanding about each
person’s way of working in order to strengthen the collaboration and further improve the results. We are very enthusiastic about the model and will roll it out further within the organisation in 2018.

The consolidated net profit for the financial year 2017, including the actuarial results arising from provision for medical expenses after retirement and the exchange rate differences arising from the revaluation of group loans, is SRD 60,151,031. In accordance with article 18 paragraph 2 of the articles of association a sum of SRD 3.00 per preference share with a nominal value of SRD 50 of this will accrue to the preference shareholders, and a sum of SRD 0.25 per ordinary share with a nominal value of SRD 5 will accrue to the ordinary shareholders.These sums are 6% and 5% respectively of the issued and paid-in capital per share. The preference and ordinary shareholders thereby have a statutory entitlement to a payment of SRD 132 and SRD 23,715 respectively, after which a sum of SRD 60,127,184 will be at the disposal of the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The board’s proposal is to pay a dividend from this sum of SRD 630.75 per SRD 5 ordinary share and SRD 6,307 per SRD 50 preference share. This makes the total dividend including the statutory part SRD 631 per SRD 5 ordinary share and SRD 6,310 per SRD 50 preference share.
Report from the Supervisory BoardIn accordance with the provisions of article 17 paragraph 3 of the articles of association we are submitting the annual accounts prepared by the Directors of Management team for approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders. The annual report have been audited by Lutchman & Co. We ask you to approve this annual report together with the audit report from Lutchman & Co.
With our approval, the interim dividend of SRD 283 per SRD 5 share and SRD 2,830 per SRD 50 preference share was made payable in November 2017. Taking account of this, if our proposal is approved, the final dividend will be set at SRD 348 per SRD 5 ordinary share and SRD 3,480 per SRD 50 preference share. These sums include the aforementioned statutory dividend, and will be made payable with deduction of the dividend tax due.
The approval of the annual report serves to discharge the Management of responsibility for its management and the Supervisory Board of responsibility for its supervision.
Supervisory BoardThe composition of the Supervisory Board changed in 2017 with the appointment of Mr A. Ramdin as a Board Member at an Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders on 26 October 2017. The Board has decided to appoint Mr M. Loor as Chairman.
MeetingsThe Supervisory Board met on 29 March, 21 June and 26 October 2017.Various topics were discussed at these meetings, including the strategy, investments and
construction works, the operating results, communication with the authorities concerning tax measures relating to the production of beer, the payment of interim dividend, the financial position, risk management and auditing of the business. Attention was also paid to changing market conditions and how to respond to these. The members actively participated in the discussions and decision-making in the Board’s meetings.
In addition to the meetings of Management, the Supervisory Board members had discussions with the Executive Board in preparation for meetings of the Board and to supervise the progress of the strategy.
Safety and EnvironmentThe Supervisory Board is satisfied with the commercial and financial strategy pursued, but also with the efforts being made by Surinaamse Brouwerij in the areas of safety and the environment. Substantial progress is being made with a high degree of employee engagement. This not only enhances the welfare of the employees, but also helps to safeguard the future of the business.
ThanksWe would like to express our gratitude for the way in which the Management and employees have again worked actively to cope with the challenging market conditions in 2017 and have again succeeded in ending the year on a positive note.

Corporate Social Responsibility
In all the disciplines within Surinaamse Brouwerij Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a topic that is on the agenda every day, and also forms part of our business strategy. Respect for people and the environment is important in everything we do and how we do it, both now and in the future. Our sustainability strategy, Brewing a Better World, focuses on 6 areas where we can make the biggest difference and we take account of environmental and social issues when developing our strategy. These areas are Clean Water, Reducing Carbon Emissions, Sustainable Procurement, Responsible Alcohol Consumption, Promoting Health and Safety and Social Growth. We achieve progress in these areas every year. Although we know that there is still much to do, we are seeing a structural improvement in our sustainable growth combined with innovation.
Protecting water resourcesWater is used at various points during the brewing process in our Supply Chain. Beer consists of about 95% water, but water is also used - amongst other things - for cleaning returnable bottles and during the pasteurisation process.As demand for clean drinking water continues to rise worldwide, Surinaamse Brouwerij acknowledges its responsibility by using water as sparingly as possible during the production process and also by treating the waste water in our own water treatment plant.
Reducing CO2 emissionsClimate change is one of the biggest threats confronting us worldwide. As part of HEINEKEN, Surinaamse Brouwerij is also actively contributing to the reduction in CO2 emissions. Hence we are able to reuse 85% of our waste streams from production together with our recycling partners, and we have managed to export more than 60 metric tons of glass and plastic waste for reuse.
Local and sustainable procurement Sustainability is managed from within Finance by closely monitoring compliance with Supplier. The Supply Code is a crucial tool for communicating our values and expectations with regard to the environment, human rights and ethical business practices to our suppliers. The aim of this code is to stipulate requirements for the monitoring of and compliance with the Supplier Code. The implementation of the Supplier Code is one of the most
important elements of sustainable procurement in our ‘Brewing a Better World’ programme.We source Surinamese rice locally as part of the brewing recipe.
The programme also involves purchasing primarily local services, such as support with marketing and sales, point-of-sale material, financial services etc.
We are also contributing by purchasing only environmentally-friendly energy efficient refrigerators.

Responsible consumptionSurinaamse Brouwerij is one of the three founders of Stichting Verantwoord Alcoholgebruik Suriname (Foundation for Responsible Alcohol Consumption Suriname - Stivasur). This is a self-regulating organisation in which we work with others to promote responsible alcohol consumption.
Hence we focused on road safety in 2017, with Stivasur through a billboard campaign. This campaign draws consumers’ attention to the negative consequences of misusing alcohol and the risks of drunk driving. It was the first road safety campaign conducted together with the Suriname Police Service during Road Safety Month. During the UEFA Champions League matches we promoted responsible alcohol consumption with the campaign
‘when you drive, never drink’. And during the busy month of December, we did this using a mini-documentary which showed what alcohol does to your body, how to be responsible with alcohol, and particularly that driving with alcohol is the wrong choice.
We hold water breaks during our Parbo events where alcohol is sold when we distribute free water over periods of around 20 minutes and encourage people to drink less (quickly) and to alternate with water.
As in previous years, we again had a partnership with Surinaamse Taxicentrale STC 1660 in 2017. Surinaamse Brouwerij provides the taxis with stickers with the text ‘Biertje op, laat je rijden’ (‘Had a beer, get a ride’), which is now a very recognisable campaign on the
bright yellow cars. At Surinaamse Brouwerij we are always thinking about the consumer when we develop our campaigns.
Hence we want to give something back to the people of Suriname with the Parbo Night events. These free events are attended by 15,000 visitors.
Health and safetyOur employees are close to the product in the Surinaamse Brouwerij. On the basis of ‘doing what you say’, we also encourage our people to consume alcohol responsibly, by utilizing the internal campaign Cool@Work which prohibits the consumption of alcohol during working hours.
Our employees are conscious of the fact that they work with alcoholic products and that model social behaviour is important with respect to our customers and consumers. We not only say it, we also monitor and measure it. Safety has the highest priority for us, and in this regard we introduced the HEINEKEN ‘Life Saving Rules’ in 2017 for employees including our drivers and sales representatives, whereby they were extensively instructed about issues including road safety ranging from defensive driving to checking tyre pressures. In this way we are taking responsibility together for a safe environment.
Growing with communitiesThe pillar ‘Growing with communities’ enables us to contribute to the communities in which we operate. We are growing along with local communities by - for example - creating jobs, paying taxes and supporting local suppliers.
One of the activities in that regard is our Community Service and our non-commercial sponsorships. Our policy in this area enables us to contribute to activities that benefit the Surinamese community, whereby that contribution is primarily driven by the social engagement that is felt by the employees of Surinaamse Brouwerij.
Activities that qualify for this have to comply with pre-defined stipulations, and the award is done on the basis of meeting these stipulations.
Our partnerships such as the one with Conservation International Suriname also contribute to the preservation and protection of nature. Within this partnership we are contributing to the ‘Friends of Green Suriname’ programme. We recently extended this partnership by another three years.
Surinaamse Brouwerij is a business that encourages sustainable entrepreneurship. In the interior of Suriname, the brewery is investing in partnerships with local
entrepreneurs which is contributing to the sustainable development of tourism in the interior. Over the past two years Surinaamse Brouwerij has been carrying out a project whereby sales outlets with terraces are being built along the rivers of Suriname in conjunction with local entrepreneurs with the aim of serving tourists, creating a meeting place for the local community and - very importantly - establishing a collection point for the returnable packaging materials (bottles and crates). The terraces that are being built are multifunctional and provide employment and structure in the area. They also enable the community to gather for social and cultural events. Six of these outlets have already been created, and we will expand this number further in 2018.
In order to tackle the challenges of the returnable bottle system, we established a collaboration with Organize Global in October 2017 to collect our Parbo deposit bottles from consumers’ homes. The returnable bottle system has much less impact on the environment than single-use packaging. However this system is still a challenge in Suriname because consumers do not optimally return the retuable bottles through the available channels.

Surinaamse Brouwerij - Our efforts towards Brewing a Better World
Sustainability report
At Surinaamse Brouwerij we have put sustainability at the core of our activities. This is our progress in 2017.
Ensuring contractor safety at theSurinaamse BrouwerijAs we expand our brewery, safety remains a top priority. Ensuring our construction contractors follow the same strict safety standards as we apply within our breweries has been a key concern. To address it, we we conducted safety briefings with all of our contractors which have helped to improve both safety awarenessand collaboration.
Promoting growth and prosperity in SurinameIn 2017, we created a new venture with local entrepreneurs in the remote interior of Suriname.Our financial investment has a total of 10 new outlets which function as community meeting points to promote newbusiness in these regions. The outlets provide a focus for the local community and a hub for collecting emptybottles, thus also promoting our recycling initiatives.
Our partnership with Conservation InternationalWe’re committed to protecting and preserving our country’s unique natural heritage.For the last three years, Surinaamse Brouwerij has been a member of the Friends of Green Suriname. We’ve supported a number of
projects, for example Building withNature at Weg naar Zee which has tackled coastal erosion and restored part of the coastline, and the renovation of the Voltzberg Research Station which houses experts undertaking research on the Central Suriname Nature Reserve.
Our global commitmentSustainability has been fundamental to HEINEKEN for many years. Today, our global ambition is to Brew a Better World from barley to bar. It’s this commitment that unites our global brands in respecting people, planet and prosperity.
We focus on the six areas where we can make the biggest difference. This shapes our contribution towards delivering the UN Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. Overall we’re making good progress, putting us on track to reach most of our Brewing a Better World 2020 commitments with more to do in some areas.

2. Basis for the preparation of the financial statementsA. Statement of complianceThe consolidated financial statements of SBNV Group have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial reporting. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management of the company and will be submitted for adoption to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on 20 June 2018.
B. Basis of measurementThese consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise indicated.
C. Functional and presentation currencyThe consolidated financial statements are presented in Suriname dollars, which is the company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in SRD has been rounded to the nearest Suriname dollar unless stated otherwise.
D. Use of estimates, assumptions and judgmentsThe consolidated financial statements are prepared based on management making certain judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Estimates in the financial statements are, amongst others, related to the estimated economic life span and residual values of the intangible and tangible fixed assets, provisions for deferred tax liabilities, post-retirement medical benefit plan, obsolete inventories and doubtful debtors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
The information about assumptions and estimation of uncertainties and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described and disclosed within the notes, whenever necessary.
S U R I N A A M S E B R O U W E R I J N . V . 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T
3. Significant accounting policiesGeneralThe accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements and have been applied consistently by SBNV subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated.
A. Basis of consolidation1. SubsidiariesSubsidiaries are entities controlled by SBNV. SBNV controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
2. Loss of controlUpon the loss of control, SBNV derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the income statement.
3. Transactions eliminated on consolidationIntra-SBNV balances and transactions and any unrealized gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intra-SBNV transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
B. Foreign currencyTransactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate as at the balance sheet date using the reference rates ofDe Surinaamsche Bank NV. These exchange rates are as follows:
Foreign currency differences arising from transactions and retranslation are recognized in the income statement. C. Tangible fixed assets1. Owned assetsTangible fixed assets comprise of property, plant and equipment (PPE) which are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost comprises the initial purchase price increased with expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets (such as transport and non-recoverable taxes). The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labor and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use.
Spare parts that are acquired as part of an equipment purchase and only to be used in connection with this specific equipment that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment are capitalized and amortized as part of that equipment. In all other cases, spare parts are carried as inventory and recognized in the income statement as consumed. Where an item of PPE comprises major components having different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of PPE. Returnable packaging in circulation are recorded as PPE and a corresponding liability is recorded in respect of the obligation to repay the customers’ deposits. Deposits paid by customers for returnable items are reflected in the balance sheet within the current liabilities.
2. Subsequent expendituresThe cost of replacing a part of an item of PPE is recognized in the carrying amount of the item or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the company and its costs can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of day-to-day servicing of PPE are recognized in the income statement when incurred. 3. DepreciationDeprecation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value.
USD 1 = SRD 7,52 (Ultimo 2016: USD 1 = SRD 7,50)
EURO 1 = SRD 9,00 (Ultimo 2016: EURO 1 = SRD 7,92)
38 39
S U R I N A A M S E B R O U W E R I J N . V . 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T
Land is not depreciated as it is deemed to have an infinite life. Depreciation on other PPE is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the items of PPE. Project in progress are not depreciated.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years are as follows:• Buildings and premises 15-40 years• Plant and machinery 10-30 years• Other tangible fixed assets 5-15 years
4. Gains and losses on saleNet gains on sale of items of PPE are presented in profit and loss as other income. Net losses on sale are included in depreciation. Net gains and losses are recognized in profit and loss when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of consideration is probable, the associated costs can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the PPE.
D. Intangible assets1. GeneralThe intangible assets comprise of the acquired brand name Sranan Biri and activated computer software. The intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and possible impairments.
2. Subsequent expenditureSubsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed when incurred.
3. Amortization Amortization is calculated over the cost of the assets, or other amount substituted, less its residual value. Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives from the date they are available for use. The estimated useful life of software is three (3) years. Acquired brand names are amortized over a period of 15 years.
4. Gains and losses on sale Net gains on sale of intangible fixed assets are presented in the income statement as other income. Net losses
are included in amortization. Net gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of consideration is probable, the associated costs can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the intangible asset.
E. Inventories1. GeneralInventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on average cost formula, and includes expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
2. Finished products and work in progressFinished products and work in progress are measured at manufacturing cost based on average cost and takes into account the production stage reached. Costs include an appropriate share of direct production overheads based on normal operating capacity.
3. Other inventories and spare partsThe cost of other inventories and spare parts is based on average cost price. Value reductions and usage of parts are charged to the income statement. Spare parts that are acquired as part of an equipment purchase and only to be used in connection with this specific equipment are initially capitalized and depreciated as part of the equipment. Where necessary, a provision is recorded for obsolete inventory, which is offset in the inventory value.
F. SecuritiesThe securities are valued at the acquisition cost.
G. Non-derivative financial instruments1. GeneralNon-derivative financial instruments comprise of trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables.Non-derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable
S U R I N A A M S E B R O U W E R I J N . V . 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T
transaction costs.
If SBNV Group has a legal right to offset financial assets with financial liabilities and if SBNV intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously, financial assets and liabilities are presented in the balance sheet as a net amount. The right of set-off is available today and not contingent on a future event and it is also legally enforceable for all counterparties in a normal course of business, as well as in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy.
2. Financial assetsA financial asset, mainly trade receivables, is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably. All impairment losses are recognized in the income statement. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized.
3. Cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank overdrafts from an integral part of SBNV Group’s cash management and are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.
H. Share capital1. Ordinary and preference sharesOrdinary and preference shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognized as a deduction of equity, net of any tax effects.
2. DividendsDividends are recognized as a liability in the period in which they are declared.
I. Employee benefits1. Defined contribution planA defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan (pension plan) under which SBNV pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. SBNV has no legal or
constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Obligations for contributions to the defined contribution plan are recognized as an employee benefit expense in the income statement in periods during which services are rendered by employees.
2. Defined benefit planA defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan (pension plan) that is not a defined contribution plan. Typically, defined benefit plans define an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and compensation.
SBNV’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plan pertains to a provision for post-retirement medical benefits. This provision is formed based on commitments by the employer for free medical care for beneficiaries and their relatives entitled to these rights. The provision is determined based on actuarial valuations. The calculations are performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. SBNV recognizes all actuarial gains and losses arising from defined benefit plans immediately in the equity (retained earnings), and all expenses related to defined benefit plans in personnel expenses, and other net finance income and expenses in the income statement.
3. Share-based payment planLiability for the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) pertains to the remuneration scheme as maintained byHeineken International for certain expatriates.
The grant date fair value, adjusted for expected dividends, of the share rights granted is recognized as personnel expenses with a corresponding increase in equity over the period that the employee becomes unconditionally entitled to the share rights. The costs of the share plan are spread evenly over the performance period, during which vesting conditions are applicable and total amount to be expensed is determined taking into consideration the expected forfeitures.
40 41
S U R I N A A M S E B R O U W E R I J N . V . 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T
At each balance sheet date, SBNV revises its estimates of the number of share rights that are expected to vest, recognizes the impact of the revision of original estimates in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.
4. Short-term employee benefitsShort-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term benefits if SBNV has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
J. Provisions1. GeneralA provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, SBNV has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as part of net finance expenses.
K. RevenueRevenue from the sale of products in the ordinary course of business is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of sales tax, excise duties, returns, customer discounts and other sales-related discounts. Revenue from the sale of products is recognized in the income statement when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of products can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the products.
L. Other incomeOther income includes gains from sale of PPE. They are recognized in the income statement when risks and
rewards have been transferred to the buyer.
M. ExpensesExpenses are recognized in the year incurred.
N. Interest income, interest expense and other net finance income and expenseInterest income and expenses are recognized as they accrue in the income statement, using the effective interest method.
Other net finance income and expense pertains to interest on the net defined benefit obligation, and foreign currency gains and losses which are reported on a net basis.
Dividend income on securities is recognized in the income statement on the date that SBNV’s right to receive payment is established.
O. Income tax1. GeneralIncome tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity.
2. Current taxCurrent tax is the expected income tax payable or receivable in respect of taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to income tax payable in respect of previous years.
3. Deferred taxDeferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases.
Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred tax liability is settled.
S U R I N A A M S E B R O U W E R I J N . V . 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different taxable entities which intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
P. Earnings per shareSBNV presents basic earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Q. Cash flow statementThe consolidated cash flow statement is prepared using the indirect method. Changes in balance sheet items that have not resulted in cash flows such as translation differences and other non-cash items have been eliminated for the purpose of preparing this statement.
Dividends paid to ordinary shareholders are included in financing activities. Dividends received are classified as operating activities. Interest paid is also included in operating activities.

Depreciation is based on the estimated economic lives of the relevant assets. As of 1999, the estimated commercial and fiscal lives are no longer similar due to fiscally accelerated depreciation on specific production investments.
The Additions in intangibles fixed assets pertains to the purchase of the brand name Sranan Biri and the purchase of software for SEM and K-Store, two new
sales applications to support the new way of working within the sales organization.
The deferred tax asset pertains to a net loss carry over from Surinaamse Brouwerij (company) and Stichting Super Trans Atlantic. Management expects sufficient future taxable profit to enable the use of this net loss.

9. Deferred tax liabilities The deferred tax liabilities relate to the items property, plant & equipment and inventories. With regard to property, plant & equipment, the difference is caused by, on the one hand, deviating principles of valuation for tax purposes and on the other hand
due to deviating economic lives resulting from fiscally accelerated depreciation on specific production assets. For the fiscal valuation of specific inventory groups, the base stock method is applied.
The provision for deferred tax liabilities is compiled as follows:
Lower fiscal book value of tangible fixed assets
Less: valuation difference of land for which, due to the
permanent nature, no deferred tax liability applies
Elimination intercompany profit in inventories of Parbo Centrale
Lower fiscal valuation inventories due to base stock method of
valuation
Valuation difference: commercial versus fiscal principles
Provision deferred tax liabilities, at income tax rate of 36%

A. Report on the audit of the financial statements 2017 included in the annual report
Our opinionWe have audited the financial statements 2017 included on pages 32 to 55 of Surinaamse Brouwerij N.V., based in Paramaribo.
IIn our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of Surinaamse Brouwerij N.V. as at 31 December 2017, and of its result and the cashflows for 2017 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements comprise: 1. The consolidated and company balance sheet as at 31 December 2017;2. The following statements for 2017: the consolidated and company income statement, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated cashflow statement;3. The notes comprising a summary of the accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Basis for our opinionWe conducted our audit in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements’ section of our report.
We are independent of Surinaamse Brouwerij N.V. in accordance with the Verordening inzake de onafhankelijkheid van accountants bij assurance-opdrachten (ViO) and other relevant independence regulations to the assignment and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Furthermore, we have complied with the Verordening gedrags- en beroepsregels accountants
Independent auditor’s report
To the General Meeting of Shareholders of Surinaamse Brouwerij N.V.Paramaribo
(VGBA).
We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
B. Report on the other information included in the annual report In addition to the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, the annual report contains other information that consists of:• Management of the company;• other information.
Based on the following procedures performed, we conclude that the other information is consistent with the financial statements and does not contain material misstatements.
We have read the other information. Based on our knowledge and understanding obtained through our audit of the financial statements or otherwise, we have considered whether the other information contains material misstatements. With our work, we have complied with the requirements of audit standard 720. This work is not as thorough as our audit work.
Management is responsible for preparing the other information, including the report of the management and the other information, in accordance with generally accepted principles for financial reporting. C. Description of responsibilities regarding the financial statementsResponsibilities of management and supervisory board for the financial statementsManagement is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles for financial

reporting. Furthermore, the management is responsible for such internal control as the management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
As part of the preparation of the financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Based on the financial reporting framework mentioned, management should prepare the financial statements using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Management should disclose events and circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the financial statements.
The Supervisory Board is responsible for overseeing the company’s process of financial reporting.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objective is to plan and perform the audit engagement in a manner that allows us to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence for our opinion.
Our audit has been performed with a high, but not absolute, level of assurance, which means we may not detect all material errors and fraud during our audit.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. The materiality affects the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and the evaluation of the effect of identified misstatements on our opinion.
We have exercise professional judgement and have maintained professional skepticism throughout the audit, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, ethical requirements and independence requirements. Our audit included among others:
• identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, designing and performing audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control;• obtaining an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control;• evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management;• concluding on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting, and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause a company to cease to continue as a going concern; • evaluating the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures; and• evaluating whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Because we are ultimately responsible for the opinion, we are also responsible for directing, supervising and performing the group audit. In this respect we have determined the nature and extent of the audit procedures to be carried out for group entities. Decisive were the size and/or the risk profile of the group entities or operations. On this basis, we selected group entities for which an audit or review had to be carried out on the complete set of financial information or specific items.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant findings in internal control that we identify during our audit.
