2017 Operational Highlights

▪ The successful integration of Encore Industries into the IPL North America business since acquisition

in November 2016.

▪ The North America market has contributed significant organic growth driven by continued increased

demand in both the Consumer Packaging and Large Format Packaging and Environmental Solutions

divisions.

▪ Macro delivered results for 2017 which were ahead of expectations announced at the time of

acquisition. The integration of Macro has been completed successfully with growth anticipated for

2018 driven by a significant new contract with a global automotive customer.

▪ OPG’s Ireland and China business has been negatively impacted by reduced demand from its largest

customer following the merger of that customer with another industry participant.

▪ OPG’s financial performance in the UK in 2017 was significantly improved on 2016 with EBITDA

growth of 9% (prior to the allocation of OPG central overheads) even though turnover only increased

by 1%. Performance in 2017 was driven by growth in the packaging and industrial products business

and follows the successful reconfiguration of the operations at one of the UK sites.

7

2017 Operational Highlights (Continued)

▪ Significant development capital investment programmes continue in the Group’s North American

operations providing it with enhanced ability and capacity to serve an expanding business. A

number of these projects began to contribute to EBITDA in 2017.

▪ Renegotiated and extended the IPL Inc. Canadian syndicated loan facility to finance the

acquisition of Macro and to provide further bank facilities to the IPL Inc. Group with a revised

expiry date of July 2021.

▪ The hurricanes in the US in Quarter 3 2017 drove reduced capacity in both the resin and freight

markets resulting in significant cost increases in Quarter 4 2017, trends which have continued

into Quarter 1 2018.

8

2017 Strategic Highlights

▪ The acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Macro Plastics Inc. on 9 June 2017 through IPL Inc.

▪ The disposal of ClearCircle’s Specialist Environmental Services (“SES”) Divisions in Ireland and the UK,

with cash consideration of c. €40m received from the sale of both divisions.

▪ At its EGM in December 2017, the Group took the initial steps to facilitate a possible liquidity event when

shareholders gave the board authority to enable the company to proceed with an IPO and Listing in 2018

should market and other conditions permit. Authority was also received from shareholders to change the

name of the company to IPL Plastics plc, which became effective on 7 December 2017. In addition, the

shareholders approved a reorganization of the existing IPL Inc. shareholding structure by agreeing to an

exchange of the current minority shareholders’ equity interests in IPL Inc. for shares in IPL Plastics plc.

▪ On 28 February 2018, the reorganization of the IPL Inc. shareholding structure was effected in line with

the approval provided by shareholders at the December 2017 EGM, resulting in the issuance of

47,238,242 shares and the elimination of the Put Liability (i.e. the 33.3% of IPL Inc. not owned by the

Group), which amounted to €119.8m at year end 2017.

▪ Continuing to position IPL Plastics for future growth by identifying appropriate organic and acquisition

opportunities which can drive growth in shareholder value.

Income Statement

• Revenue increased by 36.2% on the prior year to

€474.4m, driven principally by strong organic growth

in IPL Inc. and the impact of the Encore and Macro

acquisitions.

• EBITDA increased by 46.0% to €70.9m with IPL Inc’s

contribution being €45.9m and Macro’s €12.6m.

• Exceptional and non-recurring items, discontinued

operations and share of equity accounted investees

resulted in a charge of €11.2m in the year (2016:

credit of €0.3m). Included in this is €2.7m of costs

associated with the acquisition of Macro Plastics and

€3.2m of a loss on discontinued operations.

• Finance costs increased from the comparative period

by €4.9m to €13.8m, primarily as a result of the

drawdown of bank borrowings for the purposes of

acquiring Encore and Macro.

• There was a net income tax credit for the year of

€0.9m (2016: charge of €3.5m), which includes a

non-recurring income tax credit of €8.1m.

Divisional analysis

• IPL Inc's 2017 EBITDA includes €5.1m from the

acquired Encore business (2016: €0.5m) with the

remaining improvement on 2016 EBITDA

reflecting strong organic growth. Encore’s

Revenue for the year was €51.5m (2016: €5.8m).

• OnePlastics performance in the period was

impacted by the merger of a significant OPG

Ireland electronics customer and adverse

movements in the pound sterling exchange rate.

• Macro Plastics was acquired on 9 June 2017 and

its performance since that date has been included

in the Group's reported numbers. It delivered full

year results ahead of the Group's expectations

announced at the time of acquisition.

• Other includes the results of the Ampthill Metals

business and the Group's Head Office costs.

Ampthill’s EBITDA in the year was €4.6m (2016:

€3.6m) with the Group’s Centre being a cost of

€5.3m (2016: €3.9m).

Balance Sheet

• The year-on-year movement in Goodwill and Intangible

assets arises principally as a result of the acquisition of

Macro Plastics, with €85.4m recognised on the date of

acquisition.

• The increase in Tangible assets from 31 December

2016 is due primarily to the acquisition of Macro

Plastics (€42.0m) and the Group's continued significant

expenditure as part of its capital investment

programme.

• Working capital balances at 31 December 2017 were

€49.9m (2016: €27.7m). The increase has arisen

primarily due to the acquisition of Macro Plastics

(€13.5m balance at year end) and an increase in IPL

Inc. as a result of its strong organic growth.

• Total Equity (after the Put Liability) has decreased by

30.3% at year end 2017 to €82.7m driven primarily by

the increase in the Put Liability of €47.6m and

unfavourable currency translation movements, partially

offset by the profit recorded for the year.

• Net Debt at 31 December 2017 was €233.0m (31

December 2016: €152.5m). The increase has been

caused primarily by the drawdown of borrowings to

fund the acquisition of Macro Plastics during the year.

Cash Flow

• Net cash inflows from operations (before tax and working

capital) increased by €12.3m during the year driven by

stronger EBITDA partially offset by higher exceptional

and non-recurring costs.

• Working capital levels increased in the year driven by the

acquisitions of Encore and Macro, increased levels of

inventory as a result of two large contracts with

customers in North America and the significant organic

growth in the business.

• Finance costs increased from 2016 by €4.2m to €13.4m,

the increase due to the higher Group borrowings as a

result of the Encore and Macro acquisitions.

• Significant growth capex projects continue to be

undertaken to meet organic growth and customer-led

demand.

• Disposals relate primarily to the disposal of the Group's

subsidiary undertakings.

• Acquisitions in the year relate to the costs of acquiring

Macro Plastics.

• Other primarily comprises the impact of exchange rate

movements between €/CAD$ and to a lesser extent

€/GBP£ on the Group’s net debt. The closing year end

€/CAD$ exchange rate was 1.5039 (2016: 1.4188),

which had a significant positive effect on the Group’s

CAD$ reported borrowings.

Strategy

19

• IPL Plastics’ strategy is focused on the development and growth of the Group’s core operations,

through both organic and acquisition led initiatives, to become a leading global player in the Rigid

Plastics market.

• The rigid plastic packaging market is the largest component of the plastics packaging market. It is

a segment driven by innovation, the substitution effect (from traditional forms of packaging),

increasing population growth and urbanisation.

• Rigid plastics’ growth has primarily come as a result of growing demand in emerging markets, but

also at the expense of traditional packaging types such as glass bottles and jars, liquid cartons

and metal cans.

• The operating model for the coming years is focused on:

– Fully realising the synergy potential across the business units, including sharing of technical

expertise, leveraging collective intellectual property and customer relationships, and

procurement efficiencies;

– The pursuit and realisation of higher margin sales opportunities, focusing on customers with

value-add requirement;

Group Strategy

20

– A more systematic targeting of US and European markets for retail packaging, waste carts

and bulk packaging through a stronger and more coordinated sales effort and through

acquisition; and

– The realisation of cost efficiencies in production including, but not limited to, a more stringent

commercial evaluation of capital investments and the increased automation of production.

• Given the strong organic growth experienced in North America, including the recent acquisitions,

the Group is investing heavily in development capital investment projects to facilitate an

expansion of the product range and to drive continued improvements in operating margins.

Group Strategy (Continued)

21

• The Group continues to experience strong demand for its products and its operations are underpinned by

favourable market dynamics, particularly in North America.

• Group results in the second half of 2017 were adversely impacted by increased resin and transport costs

following the impact of significant hurricanes recorded in the US. Results were also impacted by a decline

in the value of the US dollar and the Canadian dollar versus the Euro. The trading performance at the start

of 2018 continues to be impacted by these factors. The Group’s overall 2018 results, however, should start

to see the full year impact of some of the new capital expenditure programmes commissioned in the latter

half of 2017, together with a full year’s contribution from Macro.

• Given the many alternative options available to grow and develop the business, both organically and

through acquisition, the Group is confident in the ability of the business to continue to grow profitably into

the future and to create shareholder value.

• In line with the authority given by the Group’s shareholders at its EGM on 6 December 2017, and together

with the recent reorganisation of the IPL Inc. structure, progress has been made towards a possible IPO

and stock market listing on the Toronto TSX in 2018, subject to market conditions. This would allow the

Group to access further equity capital to finance growth opportunities and provide liquidity for the Group’s

shareholders. The Group will update shareholders further in relation to the possible IPO as the

arrangements progress.

Conclusion
