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.

The Company registered an operating profit of Ps. 783.1 million, which is lower than the operating profit of Ps. 858.6 million registered in the same 2009 quarter. The operating margin for the quarter was 12.6%.

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

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.
