Fairfax bought into Astarta in 2016, when the share price was much higher. But at least the stock is now moving in the right direction. Barring Russia\u2019s unlikely takeover of the whole of Ukraine \u2013 the front lines have barely changed since last winter \u2013 the company\u2019s bosses think the worst is over. \u201cWhat doesn\u2019t kill us, makes us stronger,\u201d Astarta chief executive Viktor Ivanchyk told The Globe and Mail in an interview in Kyiv in February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Astarta is a diversified agribusiness, its strength is sugar. The company is Ukraine\u2019s, and one of Europe\u2019s, largest producers of sugar, whose feedstock is sugar beets. In the 2023-24 operating season, it produced 377,000 tonnes of sugar from its five refineries. Astarta also has 220,000 hectares of farmland under management and grows soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower and rapeseed, in addition to beets. It is a big name in soybean oil and meal, and just raised US$60-million from a Ukrainian bank to build a new soybean processing plant. The company\u2019s 25,500 dairy cattle make it the biggest producer of milk in Ukraine, and its energy division extracts biogas from its industrial activities to offer manufacturers a more climate-friendly alternative to natural gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A separate minority Fairfax investment, Ovostar, is Ukraine\u2019s biggest producer of eggs and liquid egg products. It has almost eight million hens and, last year, exported 530 million eggs to 50 countries. On the non-agribusiness side, Fairfax, through three subsidiaries, ARX Insurance, Colonnade Ukraine and Universalna, is Ukraine\u2019s top property and casualty insurer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revenues from all of Astarta\u2019s main agribusinesses climbed last year, none more than sugar. In the first nine months, sugar sales grew by 32 per cent, year-on-year, accounting for more than a third of total sales. The reopening of the grain-shipping corridor in the western Black Sea late last summer, after Ukraine\u2019s military sank or damaged about a third of russia\u2019s once-mighty Black Sea fleet, boosted exports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But profits fell as agriculture commodity prices came back to earth \u2013 they had soared in first year of the invasion as Russia blockaded or bombed most of Ukraine\u2019s ports, creating shortages. Nine-month net earnings fell 10 per cent to \u20ac56-million ($82-million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fairfax has a history of taking chances in troubled countries, as it did in Greece, whose long financial crisis \u2013 crushing public debt and collapsing banks \u2013 nearly sent it packing from the euro zone a dozen years ago. While the company doesn\u2019t always get the timing right, it is typically a longterm investor and figures good management will eventually produce good results (Mr. Watsa, Fairfax\u2019s chairman and CEO, is often called \u201cCanada\u2019s Warren Buffett\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Eurobank Ergasias, one of Greece\u2019s biggest banks. Fairfax first invested in Eurobank in 2015, betting on a Greek economic revival. The revival was a long time coming, but it did come. Eurobank is now making profits of more than \u20ac1-billion a year ($1.5- billion) and its shares have climbed 37 per cent in the past 12 months, giving it a market value of \u20ac7-billion ($10.3-billion). Fairfax owns 32 per cent of the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine is a similar story. After the 2014 Maidan Revolution, which saw the ouster of the pro-russian president at the time, Viktor Yanukovich, Fairfax began sizing the country up for investment opportunities. Mr. Wade travelled to Ukraine a year later and examined about 50 companies in various industries. \u201cThe banking system was a mess, so we looked at the farming business,\u201dhe said. \u201cFarming is in their blood, and we found [Mr. Ivanchyk].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Astarta CEO, now 67 and owner of 40 per cent of the company, launched his agribusiness in 1993 as a fuel supplier to sugar plants. The barter system saw him take payment in sugar, which he exported. \u201cAt the beginning, I had no strategic concept,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the late 1990s, he ended up with a sugar plant when its owners could not pay him cash for his fuel deliveries. Within a few years, he owned four other plants. The initial public offering came in 2006. The second decade of this century saw Astarta, expand its land holdings, build storage silos and a soybean processing plant, enter the dairy farm business, develop a carbon-credit trading system under the Kyoto Protocol framework, establish an in-house IT arm and recruit Fairfax as an investor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russia\u2019s invasion, which began on Feb. 24, 2022, hurt all Ukrainian agribusiness, though a few companies, notably Nibulon, the country\u2019s leading grain exporter, suffered more than Astarta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were other tragedies as well. More than 500 Astarta employees were mobilized. By late February, 29 had been killed, 58 wounded and nine were missing (Astarta is paying the salaries of employees who are in the military). In May of last year, a guided missile fired from a Russian fighter jet killed a farmer on Astarta land as he drove his tractor across a corn field. Some of the company\u2019s properties in the north of Ukraine, near the Belarus and Russian frontiers, were temporarily occupied and laced with land mines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRussian aggression is not just against the military,\u201d said Mr. Ivanchyk. \u201cIt\u2019s against civilians.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His goal is to create a pan-European company. Despite the war, that prospect does not seem unrealistic. Astarta\u2019s exports are up 50 per cent from 2021, the year before the war started. The war related tariff- and quota-free access to the EU has been a godsend for all Ukrainian agribusinesses, though there is a chance that restrictions will be put on those exports. Polish farmers have blocked the Ukraine border twice in recent months to protest cheap Ukrainian grain and other products undercutting their own output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ultimate prize for Astarta \u2013 and Fairfax by extension \u2013 is Ukraine\u2019s accession to the EU, which would give the country permanent free access to a market of 450 million consumers and farm subsidies under the lavish Common Agricultural Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really important for us to have open markets,\u201d Mr. Ivanchyk said. \u201cOur capitalization will increase when Ukraine joins the EU and that gives me the strength and desire to plan for the future. I have no plans to sell my stake in Astarta.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
