- Overview
Alberto Weisser, Bunge's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, "The second quarter was disappointing, due primarily to low volumes and margins in agribusiness.
"We expect significant improvement in the second half of the year. In agribusiness, demand should be stronger and Northern Hemisphere harvests will contribute to new market conditions. Sugar and ethanol production will peak as the harvest progresses and sugar content yields improve, and fertilizer will enter its seasonally strong period in the Southern Hemisphere.
"In May, we completed the sale of our fertilizer nutrients assets. This sale, combined with the acquisition of Moema, has changed Bunge's Brazilian portfolio significantly. We believe it has improved our growth potential and created the opportunity for more synergies among our operations. We have embarked on a restructuring and consolidation effort to reflect this new portfolio and to reduce costs in the face of Brazil's continued currency strength and rising labor costs. We anticipate annual cost savings from these actions of approximately $120 million beginning in 2011.
"To date, we have retired approximately $1.5 billion of debt with a portion of the proceeds from our nutrients assets sale, and have returned over $200 million to Bunge's shareholders through the share buyback program announced in June. Our balance sheet is strong, providing us with ample financial flexibility to pursue compelling investment opportunities in our core and adjacent businesses."
- Second Quarter Results
Agribusiness
Results in oilseed processing, grain origination and distribution in all regions were lower than those of an exceptionally strong period last year. Slow farmer selling, combined with stronger than expected soybean export demand from China and excess capacity in some regions, created a tight supply situation that pressured margins in South America and the U.S. Our commercial and risk management strategies, especially in oilseeds, had anticipated more balanced supply and demand in the quarter, considering the record soybean crops in South America. Slow farmer selling also impacted European softseed processing results and our grain origination and distribution businesses in most regions. Second quarter results included $4 million of restructuring charges relating to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Sugar & Bioenergy
Sugar and bioenergy results were in line with expectations. Higher results in sugarcane milling due to the addition of the Moema mills and positive trading results were offset by start up costs associated with the expansion and construction of mills. The second quarter is typically the weakest period for this segment, as it marks the beginning of the sugarcane harvest in the Central-South of Brazil when the sugar content of the cane is at its lowest level. Consequently, our mills produced less sugar and ethanol per unit of cane milled than they will in the second half of the year when the yield increases. Higher SG&A reflects the addition of Moema and $3 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Fertilizer
Higher fertilizer results were due to the gain on the sale of our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets, which was completed during the quarter. Performance in our Brazilian retail business, however, was weaker than expected due to the combination of aggressive competitor pricing, which pressured margins, and disruptions resulting from the separation of our nutrients business from retail, which resulted in higher operating costs and lost sales opportunities. As a result of the sale of nutrients, we are restructuring this business so it is more focused, with a leaner cost structure, a different commercial approach and stronger connections to agribusiness. Noncontrolling interest increased in the quarter due to higher results at Fosfertil. The second quarter included a charge of $37 million recorded in cost of goods sold related to an inventory valuation adjustment as a consequence of the nutrients assets sale. The second quarter of 2009 included the reversal of a $32 million provision recorded in SG&A related to transactional taxes in Brazil as a result of new legislation.
Edible Oil Products
Results in the quarter were adversely impacted by $2 million of restructuring charges mostly related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations, $21 million of provisions in SG&A related to an expiring tax credit and customer promotional allowances in our Brazilian business and a $2 million decrease as a result of the sale of our joint venture interest in Saipol in the fourth quarter of last year. On a comparable basis, performance this quarter improved due to higher results in our margarine businesses in Brazil and Europe.
Milling Products
Higher corn milling results were more than offset by lower wheat milling margins due to increased local competition as a result of a large Brazilian wheat crop. Second quarter results included $3 million of restructuring charges recorded in SG&A related to the consolidation of our Brazil operations. The second quarter also included $5 million of provisions recorded in SG&A primarily related to customer promotional allowances in wheat milling.
Financial Costs
Interest expense increased in the quarter primarily due to higher average borrowing costs, including costs on debt assumed in the Moema acquisition. Substantially all of the Moema debt has been repaid or refinanced at lower interest rates. Based on estimated average borrowing levels and rates, we expect lower interest expense in the third and fourth quarters.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was 23% compared to 25% for the same period last year, and reflects the impact of the sale of our fertilizer nutrients assets in the period.
Cash Flow
Cash flows from investing activities included $3.9 billion of gross proceeds from the sale of our fertilizer nutrients assets. Cash used by operations in the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $159 million. The negative cash flow from operations in 2010 is primarily due to payments of withholding taxes and transaction closing costs totaling $417 million related to the sale of the fertilizer nutrients assets. Cash used by operations in the same period last year was $1,754 million.
- Outlook
Jacqualyn Fouse, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "Looking forward, U.S. crops are progressing well with a potential for record production of corn and soybeans, which would provide our grain operations ample supplies to originate, store and transport. The global crushing environment is more challenging than expected; however, farmer selling has normalized, and better meat industry economics and oil demand from the edible oil and biodiesel channels should provide support for improved conditions later in the year. Fertilizer results should improve as the pace of farmer purchases picks up closer to planting. Sugar & bioenergy results should benefit from the increase in sugar content yields which is expected to occur in the second half of the year. In food & ingredients, our expectations for edible oils remain the same, but we expect competitive conditions to continue to pressure our wheat milling margins.
"Given this outlook, and our much weaker than expected second quarter performance, we are reducing our 2010 full-year earnings guidance to $3.25 to $3.50 per share. This guidance excludes $1,848 million of notable items recorded in the first half of the year. It also assumes an effective tax rate of 20% to 24% and is based on 157 million shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, which reflects shares repurchased to date through our recently announced share buyback program and assumed dilution relating to our convertible preference shares."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release contains total segment earnings before interest and tax ("EBIT"), which is "non-GAAP financial measures" as this term is defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In accordance with Regulation G, Bunge has reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
Total segment earnings before interest and tax
Total segment EBIT is consolidated net income attributable to Bunge excluding interest income and expense and income tax attributable to each segment.
Total segment EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace net income attributable to Bunge, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Total segment EBIT is an operating performance measure used by Bunge's management to evaluate its segments' operating activities. Bunge believes EBIT is a useful measure of its segments' operating profitability, since the measure reflects equity in earnings of affiliates and minority interest and excludes income tax. Income tax is excluded as management believes income tax is not material to the operating performance of its segments. Interest income and expense have become less meaningful to the segments' operating activities as Bunge is financing more of its working capital with equity rather than debt. In addition, EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunge's industries. Total segment EBIT is not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP.
Below is a reconciliation of total segment EBIT to net income attributable to Bunge:
