CEO COMMENTS

Mr. Rodolfo Ramos Arvizu, Chief Executive Officer of Bachoco, stated "For the quarter, in México we continued with a high level of volatility regarding the exchange rate of the Mexican peso, while the economy continued growing, and the inflation rate was kept relatively low.

In México, we observed a normal supply in the poultry industry and as it is typical for the third quarter, lower prices. On the other hand, we continued with good demand levels.

In the U.S. industry, we observed weaker prices when compared with the same period of 2015, even when many countries have lifted their trade restrictions on US exports.

The table egg industry in both countries are under conditions of oversupply and low prices for the quarter.

For Bachoco, we were able to increase our total sales and volume in our main product lines. We continue improving our sales mix in our U.S. operation, as we increase our further process products and reduce our exposure to the commodities market. Overall, we reached an increase in total sales of 11.3% when compared to 3Q15.

The depreciation of the Mexican peso continued affecting raw material cost, and consequently our total cost of sales, as it occurred in the 1H16.

At the end, we reached an EBITDA of $1,233.0 million, slightly higher than the EBITDA of the same quarter of 2015. For the third quarter, our EBITDA margin was 9.8% and our earnings per basic and diluted share were $1.35.

We continued investing in the growth of our company, as our CAPEX reached $1,827.4 million for the year.

Our financial structure continued strengthening as we reached a net cash of $11,238.9 million, which will allow us to continue supporting our growth plans".

In 9M16 the cost of sales totaled $30,749.2 million, $3,917.2 million or 14.6% higher than the $26,832.0 million reported in 9M15. This increase is mainly attributed to higher volume sold and higher raw material costs in Mexican peso terms due to the depreciation of the Mexican peso vs the US dollar.

As a result, we reached a gross profit of $7,064.5 million and a gross margin of 18.7% in 9M16, which is slightly lower than $7,746.8 million of gross profit and a margin of 22.4% reached in the same period of 2015.

In 9M16 we had other income of $241.8 million, compared with other expenses of $43.8 million reported in 9M15.

The operating income in 9M16 was $3,780.4 million, which represents an operating margin of 10.0%, which is lower than the operating income of $4,561.4 million and an operating margin of 13.2% in 9M15.

The net financial income in 9M16 was $470.0 million, this was higher when compared to net financial income of $405.5 million in 9M15.

Total taxes were $1,263.8 million as of September 30, 2016. These taxes include $994.3 million of income tax and $269.5 million of deferred income taxes. This figure compares to total taxes of $1,520.4 million, which includes income taxes of $1,189.6 and $330.8 million of deferred income taxes in 9M15.

All the above result in a net income of $2,986.6 million or 7.9% of net margin for the 9M16, which represents $4.97 pesos of earnings per share. Meanwhile in the 9M15, the net income totaled $3,446.5 million, 10.0% of the net margin and $5.74 pesos of net income per share.
