Consumer demand for these products depends on demographic factorsand consumer preferences and trends, as well as factors relating to discretionary consumer spending,the general condition of the economy, level of consumer confidence and seasonal factors such asweather and festivities. The Company believes that consumer preference has changed consumptionbehavior, in particular among some urban consumers, towards beer with lower alcohol content. As aresult, consumer demand for the economy Chang Beer which contains higher alcohol content thanthose of its competitors has decreased, reducing the Company’s beer segment revenue. The saidincome for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 (before intersegment eliminations) decreased6.4% compared with the same period in 2007.Seasonal consumption cycles and changes in weather conditions could affect operating resultsof the Company. The demand for products of the Company generally increases during major holidaysand festivals. The consumption of products significantly increases from the end of Buddhist lent (mid-October) to April and decreases from May to September due to the rainy season and observance ofBuddhist lent. As a result, a prolonged rainy season could adversely affect sales volume and theresults of operations of the Company for a particular year.The decrease in consumer demand for the products as a result of these or other factors couldadversely affect the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company.Part 2 Page 2
