CEO's Comments:
Cristobal Mondragon, Bachoco's CEO, stated: "Even when the Mexican economy continued slowing down and is expected to record one of the worst performing quarters ever, the Company's performance remained strong and we continued delivering positive results to our holders by taking the opportunities the industry offered.
"The poultry market showed a good balance between supply and demand, which together with our focus on properly serving our market channels, allowed us to record the highest sales level in a quarter.
"Our operating margin improved and good results in the quarter were boosted by the good operating environment, a more stable Mexican peso, and the strategies implemented by the Company, such as productivity improvements, optimizing sales mix and control of our expense.
"Furthermore, our comprehensive financial result also improved also during this quarter as a result of the restructuring of our derivatives portfolio and the maturity of most of the instruments we had in place," concluded Mr. Mondragon.
