CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND FOR THE THREE-MONTH AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010

This report on Form 6-K is being furnished for the purpose of providing a copy of the registrant’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of September 30, 2011 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”). The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

The attachment contains forward-looking statements. The registrant desires to qualify for the “safe-harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and consequently is hereby filing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause the registrant’s actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the attachment.

The registrant’s forward-looking statements are based on the registrant’s current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the registrant and its industry. These forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “is/are likely to,” “may,” “plan,” “should,” “would,” or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements included in the attached relate to, among others: (i) the registrant’s business prospects and future results of operations; (ii) weather and other natural phenomena; (iii) developments in, or changes to, the laws, regulations and governmental policies governing the registrant’s business, including limitations on ownership of farmland by foreign entities in certain jurisdictions in which the registrant operate, environmental laws and regulations; (iv) the implementation of the registrant’s business strategy, including its development of the Ivinhema mill and other current projects; (v) the registrant’s plans relating to acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic alliances or divestitures; (vi) the implementation of the registrant’s financing strategy and capital expenditure plan; (vii) the maintenance of the registrant’s relationships with customers; (viii) the competitive nature of the industries in which the registrant operates; (ix) the cost and availability of financing; (x) future demand for the commodities the registrant produces; (xi) international prices for commodities; (xii) the condition of the registrant’s land holdings; (xiii) the development of the logistics and infrastructure for transportation of the registrant’s products in the countries where it operates; (xiv) the performance of the South American and world economies; and (xv) the relative value of the Brazilian Real, the Argentine Peso, and the Uruguayan Peso compared to other currencies; as well as other risks included in the registrant’s other filings and submissions with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

These forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties. Although the registrant believes that its expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, its expectations may turn out to be incorrect. The registrant’s actual results could be materially different from its expectations. In light of the risks and uncertainties described above, the estimates and forward-looking statements discussed in the attached might not occur, and the registrant’s future results and its performance may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to, inclusive, but not limited to, the factors mentioned above. Because of these uncertainties, you should not make any investment decision based on these estimates and forward-looking statements.


The forward-looking statements made in the attached relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in the attached. The registrant undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders of

Adecoagro S.A.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position of Adecoagro S.A. and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2011, and the related condensed consolidated interim statements of income and comprehensive income for each of the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the condensed consolidated interim statements of changes in shareholders´ equity and of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

 

1. General information and Reorganization

Adecoagro S.A. (the “Company” or “Adecoagro”) is a holding company primarily engaged through its operating subsidiaries in agricultural and agro-industrial activities. The Company and its operating subsidiaries are collectively referred to hereinafter as the “Group”. These activities are carried out through three major lines of business, namely, Farming; Sugar, Ethanol and Energy; and Land Transformation. Farming is further comprised of five reportable segments, which are described in detail in Note 5 to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

The Group was established in 2002 and has subsequently grown significantly both organically and through acquisitions. The Group currently has operations in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

The Company is the Group’s ultimate parent company and is a Societe Anonyme corporation incorporated and domiciled in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The address of its registered office is 13-15 Avenue de la Liberté, L-1931, Luxembourg.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on November 11, 2011.

Reorganization

On October 30, 2010, the members of International Farmland Holdings LLC (“IFH”) completed the contribution of 98% of their respective interests in IFH on a pro rata basis to a newly formed entity, Adecoagro, as contribution in kind in exchange for 100% of the common shares of Adecoagro outstanding as of that date (hereinafter referred to as the “Reorganization”).

This Reorganization was done, among other things, to facilitate the initial public offering of the Group, which occurred on January 28, 2011. Adecoagro had no prior assets, holdings or operations.

The Reorganization did not qualify as a business combination under common control; rather, it was a simple Reorganization of the capital of IFH, the existing entity.

The Reorganization has been retroactively reflected in the consolidated financial statements of Adecoagro in the period in which the Reorganization occurred. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements of Adecoagro as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, and the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of September 30, 2010 and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, have been presented using the historical values stemming from the consolidated financial statements of IFH, although the issued share capital reflects that of Adecoagro as of those dates.

On January 28, 2011 the Company successfully completed an initial public offering and a private placement (see Note 13).

 

2. Basis of preparation

The information presented in the accompanying interim nine-month financial statements is unaudited. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Group at September 30, 2011, results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the Group’s audited December 31, 2010 annual financial statements, except as stated in 2.2 and 2.3 below. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Group as of that date.

2. Basis of preparation (continued)

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial information as of September 30, 2011 and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, ‘Interim financial reporting’. The annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC). The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States Dollars.

 

2.1 New accounting standards

The impact of new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations on the Group’s financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 is set out below:

An amendment to IAS 32 (Financial Instruments: Presentation) was issued in October 2009. The amendment clarifies that rights issues, options and warrants denominated in a currency other than the issuer’s functional currency and offered on a pro-rata basis to all owners of the same class of equity must be classified as equity. Such rights issues have so far been accounted for as liabilities. The change relates only to issues of a fixed number of shares at a fixed foreign-currency exercise price. The amendment is to be applied for annual periods beginning on or after February 1, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment was effective for the Group’s nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and did not have an impact on the presentation of the Group’s financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

IFRIC 19 “Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments” was issued in November 2009. The interpretation addresses the accounting treatment in cases where a company settles all or part of a financial liability by issuing equity instruments to the creditor. It is to be applied for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment was effective for the Group’s nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and did not have an impact on the presentation of the Group’s financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

The IASB issued IAS 24 (revised) in November 2009. The revisions provide a partial exemption from the disclosure requirements for government-related entities and simplify the definition of a related party. The revisions are applicable for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. Earlier application is permitted. The revised standard was effective for the Group’s nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and did not have an impact on the presentation of the Group’s financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

In November 2009 amendments were issued to IFRIC 14 “IAS 19 – The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction”, an interpretation of IAS 19 (Employee Benefits). The amendments apply when a company is subject to minimum pension plan funding requirements. They enable prepayments of the respective contributions to be recognized as an asset. The amendments are to be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment was effective for the Group’s nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and did not have an impact on the presentation of the Group’s financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

On 6 May 2010, the IASB issued Improvements to IFRSs – a collection of amendments to seven IFRSs – as part of its program of annual improvements to its standards. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010 and January 1, 2011 (thus effective for the Group’s nine-month period ended September 30, 2011), although entities are permitted to adopt them earlier. These amendments relate to IFRS 1 “First Time Adoption of IFRS”, IFRS 3 “Business Combination”, IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”, IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”, IAS 27 “Consolidated and separate financial statements”, IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and IFRIC 13 “Customer Loyalty Programmes”. The amendments did not have a material impact on the presentation of the Group’s financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

2.1 New accounting standards (continued)

 

The following new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued but are not yet effective for the Group:

On May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” which establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 replaces the consolidation requirements in SIC-12 Consolidation—Special Purpose Entities and IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Earlier application is permitted. IFRS 10 builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the determining factor in whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent company. The standard provides additional guidance to assist in the determination of control where this is difficult to assess. The Group is the process of analyzing the resulting effects on the presentation of the Group’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

On May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” which provides for a more realistic reflection of joint arrangements by focusing on the rights and obligations of the arrangement, rather than its legal form (as is currently the case). The standard addresses inconsistencies in the reporting of joint arrangements by requiring a single method to account for interests in jointly controlled entities. IFRS 11 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group is in the process of analyzing the resulting effects on the presentation of the Group’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

On May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”. IFRS 12 is a new and comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. IFRS 12 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group is in the process of analyzing this standard although it expects it will not have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. However, the application of IFRS 12 is likely to increase the disclosures required about subsidiaries and joint arrangements.

On May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” which replaces the fair value measurement guidance currently dispersed across different IFRS standards with a single definition of fair value and extensive application guidance. IFRS 13 provides guidance on how to measure fair value and does not introduce new requirements for when fair value is required or permitted. It also establishes disclosure requirements to provide users of financial statements with more information about fair value measurements. IFRS 13 was developed in a joint project with the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the guidance in IFRS 13 is largely converged with FASB’s ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. IFRS 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group is in the process of analyzing this standard although it expects it will not have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. However, the application of IFRS 13 is likely to increase the disclosures required about fair value measurements.

In June 2011, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1 “Presentation of financial statements”. The amendment improves the consistency and clarity of the presentation of items of other comprehensive income (OCI). The main change is a requirement for entities to group items presented in OCI on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently (reclassification adjustments). The amendment to IAS 1 shall be applied for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012, with earlier application permitted. The Group is in the process of analyzing the resulting effects on the presentation of the Group’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

2.2 New significant accounting policies

The following significant accounting policies were applied for the first time in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Short-term investments

Short-term investments includes fixed-term bank deposits not repayable on demand and with original maturities of more than three months.

 

2.3 Revision of previously issued financial statements

As of June 30, 2011, the Group changed its accounting policy for the classification of certain bearer biological assets, mainly sugar cane and coffee plantations, on the statement of financial position. As from June 30, 2011, the Group classified these biological assets as non-current assets in the statement of financial position. This is consistent with the trend of industry financial statements published in Brazil, which are based on IFRS recently adopted in that country. Comparative financial statements were revised as a result of such change, reducing current biological assets and increasing non-current biological assets in US$ 29,377 and US$ 20,367 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

 

2.4 Seasonality of operations

The Group’s business activities are inherently seasonal. The Group generally harvest and sell its grains (corn, soybean, rice and sunflower) between February and June, with the exception of wheat, which is harvested from December to January. Coffee and cotton are different in that while both are typically harvested from June to August, they require a conditioning process which takes about two to three months. Sales in other business segments, such as in Cattle and Dairy business segments, tend to be more stable. However, the raising of cattle and sale of milk is generally higher during the fourth quarter, when the weather is warmer and pasture conditions are more favorable. The sugarcane harvesting period typically begins April/May and ends in November/December. This creates fluctuations in sugarcane inventory, usually peaking in December to cover sales between crop harvests (i.e., January through April). As a result of the above factors, there may be significant variations in the results of operations from one quarter to another, as planting activities may be more concentrated in one quarter whereas harvesting activities may be more concentrated in another quarter. In addition, quarterly results may vary as a result of the effects of fluctuations in commodities prices, production yields and costs on the determination of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce.

 

3. Financial risk management

Risk management principles and processes

There have been no significant changes to the risks the Group’s activities are exposed to since December 31, 2010. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the principal risks arising from financial instruments continued to be end-product price risk, exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.

The Group’s approach to the identification, assessment and mitigation of risk is carried out by a Risk and Commercial Committee, which focuses on timely and appropriate management of risk. This Risk and Commercial Committee has overall accountability for the identification and management of risk across the Group.

Following is a description of the Group’s exposure from the principal financial risks for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011. These disclosures do not appear in any particular order of potential materiality or probability of occurrence.

3. Financial risk management (continued)

 

   

End-product price risk

The Group uses a variety of commodity-based derivative instruments to manage its exposure to price volatility stemming from its integrated crop production activities. These instruments consist mainly of crop sales forwards contracts, but also includes occasionally put and call options.

Contract positions are designed to ensure that the Group would receive a defined minimum price for certain quantities of its production. The counterparties to these instruments generally are major financial institutions. In entering into these contracts, the Group has assumed the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Group does not expect any losses as a result of counterparty defaults. The Group is also obliged to pay margin deposits and premiums for these instruments.

The Group estimates that for the period ended September 30, 2011, other factors being constant, and a 5 % increase (or decrease) in prices of the Group’s end products would increase (or decrease) Gain Before Income Tax by approximately US$ 5,067.

 

   

Liquidity risk

As part of its liquidity risk management policies, the Group regularly monitors current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet operational needs in the short and longer term.

As a result of the IPO completed on January 28, 2011, the Group had available resources amounting to US$ 292.4 million as of September 30, 2011. The Group also made an investment of US$ 48.0 million in a fixed-term bank deposit in a US-based bank.

There have been no significant changes to the maturity analysis of Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and derivative financial liabilities since December 30, 2010.

 

   

Interest rate risk

There have been no significant changes regarding interest rate risk exposure since December 31, 2010.

Credit risk

There have been no significant changes regarding exposure to credit risk arising from outstanding receivables since December 31, 2010.

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the total amount of cash and cash equivalents mainly comprise cash in banks and short-term bank deposits. The Group is authorized to work with banks rated “BBB+” or higher. At September 30, 2011, three banks (HSBC, Rabobank and Deustche bank) accounted for more than 84% of the total cash deposited. The remaining amount of cash and cash equivalents relates to cash in hand.

Additionally, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Group invested in fixed-term bank deposits with one bank (HSBC) and entered into a derivative contract (currency forward). The Group does not have investment in securities or other financial instruments for which risk may have increased due to the financial credit crisis.

The Group arranged interest rate swaps with Citibank N.A. (United States), HSBC S.A. (Brazil) and Banco Pine S.A. (Brazil). The Group also entered into crop commodity futures traded in the established trading markets of Argentina and Brazil through well rated brokers. Counterparty risk derived from these transactions is not material.

Derivative financial instruments

As part of its business operations, the Group uses a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to the financial risks discussed above. The Group’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. As part of this strategy, the Group may enter into (i) interest rate derivatives to manage the composition of floating and fixed rate debt; (ii) currency derivatives to manage the currency composition of its cash and cash equivalents; and (iii) crop future contracts and put and call options to manage its exposure to price volatility stemming from its integrated crop production activities. The Group’s policy is not to use derivatives for speculative purposes.

The Group generally enters into derivative transactions with large institutions with high-credit-quality (usually equal or higher than the Group’s). The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from price movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets and liabilities, being hedged.

Non-hedging derivatives are classified as current when realization within 12 months is expected. Otherwise they are classified as non-current, although any portion that is expected to be realized within 12 months of the date of the statement of financial position is presented as current. The Group did not apply hedge accounting to any of these instruments.

The following table shows the outstanding positions for each type of derivative contract as of September 30, 2011:

Currency forward

Between July and September 2011, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts with Brazilian banks in order to hedge the fluctuation of the Brazilian Reais against US Dollar for a total notional amount of US$ 123 million, with maturity dates between October 2011 and December 2012. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a loss amounting to US$ 14.4 million included within “Financial results, net.”

 

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable. The Group’s critical accounting policies are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010. Further discussion on critical accounting policies for the period ended September 30, 2011 is included below.

Actual results could differ from estimates used in employing the critical accounting policies and these could have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations. The Group also has other policies that are considered key accounting policies, such as the policy for revenue recognition. However, these other policies, which are discussed in the notes to the Group’s annual financial statements, do not meet the definition of critical accounting estimates, because they do not generally require estimates to be made or judgments that are difficult or subjective.

(a) Impairment testing

At the date of each statement of financial position, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment and finite lived intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent, if any, of the impairment loss. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The Group’s property, plant and equipment items generally do not generate independent cash flows.

Goodwill on acquisition is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. As of the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to the cash-generating unit (‘CGU’) expected to benefit from the business combination.

Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. The impairment review requires management to undertake certain judgments, including estimating the recoverable value of the CGU to which the goodwill relates, based on either fair value less costs-to-sell or the value-in-use, as appropriate, in order to reach a conclusion on whether it deems the goodwill is impaired or not.

For purposes of the impairment testing, each CGU represents the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

 

Farmland businesses may be used for different activities that may generate independent cash flows. When farmland businesses are used for single activities (i.e. crops), these are considered as one CGU. Generally, each separate farmland business within Argentina and Uruguay are treated as single CGUs. Otherwise, when farmland businesses are used for more than one segment activity (i.e. crops and cattle or rental income), the farmland is further subdivided into two or more CGUs, as appropriate, for purposes of impairment testing. For its properties in Brazil, management identified a farmland together with its related mill as separate CGUs.

Based on these criteria, management identified a total amount of forty-six CGUs.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Group only tested for impairment in Argentina and Uruguay CGUs with allocated goodwill, due to there is not any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. Additionally, the Group tested all CGUs in Brazil due mainly to the operating losses from continuing operations suffered during that year in the Coffee and Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segments.

For the period ended September 30, 2011, due to the increase volatility in the international markets, the Group tested for impairment all CGUs regardless of which CGUs have allocated any goodwill.

Estimating the fair value less costs-to-sell is based on the best information available, and refers to the amount at which the CGU could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties. In calculating the fair value less costs-to-sell and value-in-use of its CGUs, management was be assisted by the work of external advisors.

CGUs tested based on a fair-value-less-costs-to-sell model for the period ended September 30, 2011, and year ended December 31, 2010:

The Group identified 37 CGUs in Argentina and Uruguay and 2 CGUs in Brazil. The Group tested all of these CGUs based on a fair value less costs-to-sell model as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. When using this model, the Group applies the “sales comparison approach” as its method of valuing most farmland properties. This method relies on results of sales of similar agricultural properties to estimate the value of the CGU. This approach is based on the theory that the fair value of a property is directly related to the selling prices of similar properties. The fair value of farmland property is the amount of money the Group would realize if sold at arm’s length by a willing seller to a willing buyer.

Fair values are determined by extensive analysis. Farmland values are based on the land’s productive capability and other factors such as climate and location. Farmland is assessed according to its productivity value, that is, the ability of the land to produce crops and/or maintain livestock. Farmland ratings are established by considering such factors as soil texture and quality, yields, topography, drainage and rain levels. Farmland may contain farm outbuildings. A farm outbuilding is any improvement or structure that is used for farming operations. Outbuildings are valued based on their size, age and design.

Based on the factors described above, each farm property is assigned different soil classifications for the purposes of establishing a value. Soil classifications quantify the factors that contribute to the agricultural capability of the soil. Soil classifications range from the most productive to the least productive.

The first step to establishing an assessment for a farm property is a sales investigation carried out by an independent valuer specialist that identifies the valid farm sales in the area where the farm is located.

A price per hectare is assigned for each soil class within each farm property. This price per hectare is determined based on the quantitative and qualitative analysis described above considering parameters such as:

 

   

Current soil productivity and yields;

 

   

Potential soil productivity based on market participant best use of soil property;

 

   

Projected gross margin derived from soil use;

 

   

Rental value obtained for soil use, if applicable;

 

   

Similar comparable farmland property within the topographic area.

The results are then tested against actual sales, if any, and current market conditions to ensure the values produced are accurate, consistent and fair.

The following table shows only the 11 CGUs where goodwill was allocated as of September 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

The remaining 26 CGUs in Argentina and Uruguay and the 2 CGUs in Brazil without allocated goodwill are not detailed here for simplicity purposes. Property, plant and equipment, investment property, and finite-life intangible assets allocated to these 28 CGUs have an aggregated net book value of US$ 252,252 and US$ 230,512 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Based on the testing above, the Group determined that none of the CGUs, with and without allocated goodwill, were impaired as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

CGUs tested based on a value-in-use model for the period ended September 30, 2011 and year ended December 31, 2010:

The Group identified 3 CGUs in Argentina and 4 CGUs in Brazil. The Group tested all these CGUs based on a value-in-use model. In performing the value-in-use calculation, the Group applied pre-tax rates to discount the future pre-tax cash flows. In each case, these key assumptions have been made by management reflecting past experience and are consistent with relevant external sources of information, such as appropriate market data.

The risk premium adjustment is assessed for factors specific to the respective CGUs and reflects the countries that the CGUs operate in.

The following table shows only the 3 CGUs where goodwill was allocated as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

The 3 CGUs in Argentina and the remaining CGU in Brazil without allocated goodwill are not detailed here for simplicity purposes. Property, plant and equipment and finite-life intangible assets allocated to these 4 CGUs have an aggregated net book value of US$ 329,317 and US$ 375,293 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Based on the testing above, the Group determined that none of the CGUs where value-in-use was applied were impaired as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Management views these assumptions as conservative and does not believe that any reasonable change in the assumptions would cause the carrying value of these CGU’s to exceed the recoverable amount.

(b) Biological assets

The discounted cash flow model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including observable and unobservable data. Generally the estimation of the fair value of biological assets and certain agricultural produce is based on models or inputs that are not observable in the market and the use of unobservable inputs is significant to the overall valuation of the assets. Unobservable inputs are determined based on the best information available, for example by reference to historical information of past practices and results, statistical and agronomical information, and other analytical techniques. Key assumptions include future market prices, estimated yields at the point of harvest, estimated production cycle, future cash flows, future costs of harvesting and other costs, and estimated discount rate.

(c) Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

Fair values of derivative financial instruments are computed with reference to quoted market prices on trade exchanges, when available. The fair values of commodity options are calculated using period-end market rates together with common option pricing models. The fair value of interest rate swaps has been calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis.

 

5. Segment information

The Group operates in three major lines of business, namely, Farming; Sugar, Ethanol and Energy; and Land Transformation.

The Group’s ‘Farming’ is further comprised of five reportable segments: Crops, Rice, Dairy, Coffee and Cattle.

The measurement principles for the Group’s segment reporting structure are based on the IFRS principles adopted in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Revenue generated and goods and services exchanged between segments are calculated on the basis of market prices.

The following table presents information with respect to the Group’s reportable segments. Certain other activities of a holding function nature not allocable to the segments are disclosed in the column ‘Corporate’.

(*) Brazilian federal tax law allows entities to take a percentage of the total cost of the assets purchased as a tax credit. The procedure adopted initially was to recognize such credits proportionally to the depreciation of these fixed assets on a monthly basis. During 2009, the Group elected to change the procedure to recognize these federal tax credits separately when the assets are purchased and, as permitted, the tax credits already “embedded” within the cost of the assets were reclassified to tax credit (See Note 10).

An amount of US$ 21,721 and US$ 20,048 of depreciation charges are included in “Cost of manufactured products sold and services rendered” for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. An amount of US$ 3,199 and US$ 4,528 of depreciation charges are included in “General and administrative expenses” for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. An amount of US$ 982 and US$ 859 of depreciation charges are included in “Selling expenses” for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. An amount of US$ 828 and US$ nil of depreciation charges were not charged to the statement of income and were capitalized in “Inventories” for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As of September 30, 2011, borrowing costs of US$ 1,137 (September 30, 2010: US$ 4,044) were capitalized as components of the cost of acquisition or construction of qualifying assets.

Certain of the Group’s assets have been pledged as collateral to secure the Group’s borrowings and other payables. The net book value of the pledged assets amounts to US$ 322,587 as of September 30, 2011.

As of September 30, 2011, included within property, plant and equipment balances are US$ 2.7 million related to the net book value of assets under finance leases.

(1) The Extraordinary General Meeting of Adecoagro’s shareholders held on January 24, 2011 approved a reverse stock split of Adecoagro’s common shares, changing the nominal value of Adecoagro’s common shares from US$ 1 to US$ 1.5. Therefore, Adecoagro reduced total shares outstanding as of that date from 119,999,997 shares to 79,999,985 shares.
(2) Initial Public Offering and private placement.
(3) As a consequence of new contributions made in International Farmland Holdings LP fully attributable to the Group, non controlling interest was diluted from 2% to 1.57%.

On January 28, 2011 the Company successfully completed an initial public offering of its shares in the New York Stock Exchange. The Company issued 28,405,925 shares, at a price of US$ 11 per share. In addition, on February 11, 2010, the Company issued 4,285,714 shares as a consequence of the over-alloment option exercised by the underwriters of the initial public offering, raising an overall amount of approximately US$ 359 million.

On January 28, 2011, Adecoagro’s also issued and sold to Al Gharrafa Investment Company 7,377,598 common shares at a purchase price per share of US$ 10.65, which is equal to the price per common share paid by the underwriters acting in the initial public offering of the Company. This transaction was conditioned upon, and closed immediately after, the closing of the initial public offering of the Company. Consequently the Company raised US$ 79 million.

The Company intends to use these funds to finance part of the construction costs of Ivinhema (sugar and ethanol mill in Brazil) and for potential investments in the acquisition of farmland and capital expenditures required in the expansion of the farming business.

13. Shareholders’ contributions (continued)

 

Related transaction costs totaling US$ 14 million net of tax have been netted off with the deemed proceeds, on the Share premium issued.

 

14. Equity-settled share-based payments

The Group has set a “2004 Incentive Option Plan” and a “2007/2008 Equity Incentive Plan” (collectively referred to as “Option Schemes”) under which the Group grants equity-settled options to senior managers and selected employees of the Group’s subsidiaries. Additionally, in 2010 the Group has set a “Adecoagro 2010 Restricted Share Plan” (referred to as “Restricted Share Plan”) under which the Group grants restricted shares to senior and medium management and key employees of the Group’s subsidiaries.

(a) Option Schemes

For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 the Group incurred US$ 0.7 million and US$ 1.4 million respectively, related to the options granted under the Option Schemes.

The fair value of the Option Schemes was measured at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation technique. This valuation model takes into account factors such as non transferability, expected volatility, exercise restrictions and behavioral considerations.

Key grant-date fair value and other assumptions under the Option Schemes are detailed below:

Since the Group’s shares were not historically publicly traded expected volatility was determined by calculating the historical volatility of share prices of comparable entities in representative stock markets. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioral considerations.

Movements in the number of equity-settled options outstanding and their related weighted average exercise prices under plans are as follows:

On September 9, 2011, 2,575 options were exercised under the 2004 Incentive Option Plan. Accordingly, the Group issued and registered 2,575 shares with a nominal value of US$ 1.5.

(b) Restricted Share Plan

The Restricted Share Plan was effectively established in 2010 and is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company. Restricted shares under the Restricted Share Plan vest over a 3-year period from the date of grant at 33% on each anniversary of the grant date. Participants are entitled to receive one common share of the Company for each restricted share issued. For the Restricted Share Plan there are no performance requirements for the delivery of common shares, except that a participant’s employment with the Group must not have been terminated prior to the relevant vesting date. If the participant ceases to be an employee for any reason, any unvested restricted share shall not be converted into common shares and the participant shall cease for all purposes to be a shareholder with respect to such shares.

On July 18, 2011, the Group issued and registered 427,293 restricted shares with a nominal value of US$ 1.5 which were granted under the Restricted Share Plan. While the restricted shares are not vested, they are recognized in “Other reserves”. Once they are vested, the reserve is reversed and a share premium is recognized.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 the Group incurred US$ 2.1 million related to the restricted shares granted under the Restricted Share Plan.

The restricted shares under the Restricted Share Plan were measured at fair value at the date of grant.

19. Provisions for other liabilities

The Group is subject to several laws, regulations and business practices of the countries where it operates. In the ordinary course of business, the Group is subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, labor and social security, administrative and civil and other matters. The Group accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and it can reasonably estimate them. The Group bases its accruals on up-to-date developments, estimates of the outcomes of the matters and legal counsel experience in contesting, litigating and settling matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined or more information is available, the Group may be required to change its estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on its results of operations and financial condition or liquidity. There have been no material changes to claimed amounts and current proceedings since December 31, 2010.

25. Earnings per share

Basic gains/(losses) per share

     0.479         (1.097
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

(b) Diluted

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential shares. The Group has two categories of dilutive potential shares: equity-settled share options and restricted shares. For these equity-settled share options, a calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value, based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the equity-settled share options.

(*) The effects of anti-dilutive potential shares are ignored in the earnings per share calculation at September 30, 2010. All shares are anti-dilutive in a loss period because they would decrease a loss per share.

As explained in Note 13, on January 24, 2011 the Extraordinary General Meeting of Adecoagro’s shareholders held on January 24, 2011 approved the reverse split of Adecoagro’s common shares, changing the nominal value of Adecoagro’s common shares from US$ 1 to US$ 1.5. Accordingly, the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented had been adjusted retrospectively.

Acquisition of Compañía Agroforestal Sociedad Anónima (Agroforestal)

On August 18, 2011, the Group acquired 100% of the issued share capital of Agroforestal, an Argentine-based company mainly involved in agricultural and beef cattle industry, for a total consideration of US$ 18.0 million. The purchase price includes a cash payment of US$ 1.4 million and a seller financing of US$ 15.1 million plus accrued interest at a fixed stepped interest rate. The acquisition also involved contingent consideration to the seller in an amount of US$ 1.5 million, which was retained in escrow by the Group to secure certain obligations of the seller. The escrowed amount is to be released within a three-year period as from the date of acquisition.

27. Business combinations (continued)

 

In the period from acquisition to September 30, 2011, Agroforestal contributed revenues of US$ 0.02 million and net loss of US$ 0.01 million to the Group’s consolidated results. If Agroforestal had been acquired on January 1, 2011, combined revenues of the Group would have been US$ 1.2 million (unaudited) and Profit Before Income Tax would have been US$ 0.9 million (unaudited) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011. For purposes of this note the term revenues comprises the line items “sales of manufactured products and services rendered”, “sales of agricultural produce and biological assets”, “initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” and “changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest”. These amounts have been calculated using the Group’s accounting policies and by adjusting the results of the subsidiary to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization, as appropriate, that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to net assets acquired had been applied from January 1, 2011, together with its consequential tax effects.

Results, assets and liabilities of Agroforestal as from the acquisition date are included within the ‘Crops’ and ‘Cattle’ segments.
