INFORMATION ON IPH
In 1986, after transferring the fast food business to a subsidiary, it became a holding management and
investment company, under its present name. In 1992, it divested the Kentucky Fried Chicken business. In
1993, it wrote off a substantial part of its losses by reducing the par value of its shares from $1 to $0.20 followed
by a rights issue. In 1996, it divested its paper trading business. In 1997, it divested its poultry processing
business in China.
The principal activities of the Group now are the franchising of the Shakey’s restaurant system. The Company
is an investment holding and management services company.
