  30. Rating Agency Perspective Moody’s – Baa2 (Stable) Standard & Poor’s – BBB (Stable) • “The ratings reflect the strengths of T&L’s competitive positions in the sugar, cereal sweeteners and starch industries, and the broad diversification of the company’s earnings base....It also takes into account that the operating performance should improve after a difficult 2000 / 2001 financial year....The ratings outlook is stable, reflecting Moody’s expectation that T&L will continue to be exposed to the cyclicality of its markets, resulting in fluctuating profitability and debt protection measures; it also reflects that T&L financial profile should be positively impacted by asset sales which should help reduce debt.” • 7 Mar 2002 • “The ratings reflect the group's leading positions in cereal sweeteners and starches in the U.S. and the EU, as well as in the very stable EU sugar industry; its successful divestment of noncore businesses, especially that of the loss-making U.S. sugar operations; and improving financial profile… Further improvements in earnings and debt measures are likely in financial year 2003, on the back of stable market conditions; additional synergy benefits from the integration of Staley and Amylum; the group's enhanced business mix following the divestment of the U.S. sugar operations; and limited investments. To sustain the current ratings, Tate & Lyle needs to maintain EBITA net interest coverage of at least 3x to 3.5x.” • 7 June 2002
