MOZAMBIQUE PROJECT UPDATE

• Navigator has been working with the Mozambique Government under the terms of the MoU signed in 2018, in particular on infrastructures and logistics and land and development issues.

• This has included the first Outgrower Support program in Mozambique, a government initiative funded by the World Bank. The aim is to promote small and medium scale sustainable commercial private forestry plantations, and restoration of degraded areas. In the first 2019-2020 season, plantations were established over an area of approximately 550 hectares and 1200 hectares are estimated for the next season 2020-2021.

• Portucel Moçambique played an active role in designing the program, providing wide-range support by designing the silviculture model, supplying clonal plants and offering access to fertilizers. When the plantations are ready for harvest, Portucel Moçambique will have first option on purchase of the wood.

• The Government of Mozambique referred the strategic importance to the country and to the Zambézia province of building the port of Macuse, in order to develop commercial farming and forestry.

• Decline in consumption of UWF across the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the general lockdowns of economies

• Navigator managed paper production output during most of the quarter, avoiding inventories build-up, further price erosion and preserving working capital

• With a more diversified business, with increased tissue and market pulp sales, and a strong cost action, the Group is well protected against these adverse market conditions and continues to present a significant ability to generate cash flow

• Navigator maintains a strong financial standing, after an increase in short term liquidity and a reduction in Net Debt

• Production activity in the paper mills is returning to normal, and the significant efforts to prepare the seasonally slow summer period have allowed the Company to increase its order book to comfortable levels
