CEO’s Comments:

Cristobal Mondragon, Bachoco’s CEO, stated, “The second quarter of the year is typically affected by seasonal effects, it used to be good for the Mexican poultry industry, and this year was no exception.

“We saw an adequate demand for our chicken products, our main product line, and by keeping a close control of expenses and productivity improvements it allowed us to achieve sound results during the quarter.

“In addition, we obtained good results in the swine, balance feed and other lines businesses, but weaker results in our egg business line.
 
“Since the second quarter of last year, we have had extraordinary strong prices and results, which affect comparisons; however, we reached a two-digit EBITDA and net margin for the second quarter.

“Following the business agreement made during the second half of last year, our Northeast operation is practically integrated and well coordinated with the rest of the company,” concluded Mr. Mondragon.

Net Sales
Net sales for the second quarter amounted to Ps. 6,204.1 million, and were 3.6% above the Ps. 5,991.1 million reported in the same 2009 quarter. This increase was mainly driven by higher chicken and swine sales, which were partially offset by a decrease in eggs and balance feed sales.

Operating Results
Bachoco’s second quarter gross margin, of 23.4%, was lower than 24.3% reported in 2Q09. This result is directly attributed to lower sale prices of Bachoco’s main line products.

RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Chicken
Sales of chicken products increased 8.5%, when compared to 2Q09, producing as a result a 14.3% increase in volume, which is mainly attributed to the business arrangement made during the second half of last year. This increase in volume was partially offset by the 5.1% decline in chicken prices.

Table Eggs
Sales of table eggs products decreased by 16.6% during the second quarter, due to a 17.0% decrease in eggs prices. However, lower prices were partially offset by a 0.5% increase in the volume sold.

Balanced Feed
Sales of balanced feed decreased 11.0% mainly due to the 1.9% decrease in prices and 9.3% decrease in balance feed volume sold.

Swine
The swine business line was stable during the second quarter. Sales were strong and rose 33.8%, as a result of a 21.6% gain in swine prices and 10.0% increase in volume sold.

Other Lines
Sales of other lines decrease 20.6% when compared with the same quarter of 2009, as sales of by-products declined.

Net sales for the first half of 2010 amounted to Ps. 12,135.3 million, and were 2.3% above the Ps. 11,857.9 million reported in 1H09.
