UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE SIX
MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2015

 

Adecoagro S.A. (the “Company” or “Adecoagro”) is filing this report on Form 6-K for the purpose of providing a copy of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”). This Form 6-K is incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed on December 6, 2013 (File No. 333-191325) (the “Registration Statement”). 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.

1.General information

 

Adecoagro S.A. (the “Company” or “Adecoagro”) is the Group’s ultimate parent company and is a société anonyme (stock corporation) organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. 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 three reportable segments, which are described in detail in Note 5 to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

Adecoagro is a public company listed in the New York Stock Exchange as a foreign registered company under the symbol of AGRO.

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on August 11, 2015.

 

On March 27, 2015, Adecoagro commenced a series of transactions for the purpose of transferring the domicile of Adecoagro LP to Luxembourg. In connection with the Adecoagro LP redomiciliation, Adecoagro merged IFH LP into Adecoagro LP with Adecoagro LP as the surviving entity. In connection with this merger, all of the assets and liabilities of IFH L.P. vested in Adecoagro LP, Ona Ltd became its general partner and Toba Ltd became a wholly owned subsidiary of Adecoagro LP. In connection with the transactions completed on March 27, 2015, Ona Ltd. assigned its general partnership interest in Adecoagro LP to Adecoagro GP S.a.r.l., a societe responsibilitie limitee organized under the laws of Luxembourg, on April 1, 2015. Also on April 1, 2015, Adecoagro completed the redomiciliation of Adecoagro LP out of Delaware to Luxembourg and Adecoagro LP, without dissolution or liquidation, continued its corporate existence as Adecoagro LP S.C.S., a societe en commandite simple organized under Luxembourg law, effective April 2, 2015. Since that date the affairs of Adecoagro LP S.C.S. have been governed by its by-laws and Luxembourg law. This operation had no accounting impact.

 

2.Basis of preparation and presentation

 

The information presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements (“interim financial statements”) as of June 30, 2015 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 is unaudited and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Group as of June 30, 2015, results of operations and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing these accompanying 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 interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, ‘Interim financial reporting’ and they should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs.

 

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

A complete list of standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards published but not yet effective for the Group is described in Note 2.1 to the annual financial statements. None of those standards have a material impact on the information to be presented in the financial statements.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the IASB did not publish new standards that would have a material impact on the Group when they become effective.

 

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

2.Basis of preparation and presentation (continued)

 

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 Dairy business segments, tend to be more stable. However, the 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 sugar and ethanol 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

 

The Group continues to be exposed to several risks arising from financial instruments including price risk, exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. A thorough explanation of the Group’s risks and the Group’s approach to the identification, assessment and mitigation of risks is included in Note 3 to the annual financial statements. There have been no changes to the Group’s exposure and risk management principles and processes since December 31, 2014 and refers readers to the annual financial statements for information.

 

However, the Group considers that the following tables below provide useful information to understand the Group’s interim results for the six month period ended June 30, 2015. These disclosures do not appear in any particular order of potential materiality or probability of occurrence.

 

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

●         Exchange rate risk

 

The following tables show the Group’s net monetary position broken down by various currencies for each functional currency in which the Group operates at June 30, 2015. All amounts are shown in US dollars.

Total     (88,199 )     (618,796 )     23,493       84,014       (599,488 )

 

The Group’s analysis shown on the tables below is carried out based on the exposure of each functional currency subsidiary against the US dollar. The Group estimated that, other factors being constant, a 10% appreciation of the US dollar against the respective functional currencies for the period ended June 30, 2015 would have increased the Group’s Profit Before Income Tax for the period. A 10% depreciation of the US dollar against the functional currencies would have an equal and opposite effect on the income statement. A portion of this effect would be recognized as other comprehensive income since a portion of the Company’s borrowings was used as cash flow hedge of the foreign exchange rate risk of a portion of its highly probable future sales in US dollars (see Hedge Accounting - Cash Flow Hedge below for details).

Hedge Accounting - Cash Flow Hedge

 

Effective July 1, 2013,  the Group formally documented and designated cash flow hedging relationships to hedge the foreign exchange rate risk of a portion of its highly probable future sales in US dollars using a portion of its borrowings denominated in US dollars, currency forwards and foreign currency floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps.

 

The Company expects that the cash flows will occur and affect profit or loss between 2015 and 2020.

 

For the period ended June 30, 2015, a total amount before income tax of US$ 52,524 was recognized in other comprehensive income and an amount of US$ 7,754 loss was reclassified from equity to profit or loss within “Financial results, net”.

•         Other derivative financial instruments

 

As of June 30, 2015, the Group has floating-to-fixed interest rate swap, foreign currency fixed-to-floating interest rate swap and foreign currency floating-to fixed interest rate swap agreements, which were also outstanding as of December 31, 2014.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2014, 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$ 25.5 million. No contract of this kind was entered in 2015. Those contracts entered in 2014 had maturity dates ranging between March 2014 and June 2014. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a gain of US$ 0.3 million in 2015 and US$ 0.1 million in 2014, respectively. Gain and losses on currency forward contracts are included within “Financial results, net” in the statement of income.

 

During the period ended on June 2015, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts with Uruguayan banks in order to hedge the fluctuation of the US Dollar against Euro for a total notional amount of US$ 8.2 million. The currency forward contracts maturity date ranging between September 2015 and December 2015. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a loss amounting to US$ 0.13 million in 2015. Gain and losses on currency forward contracts are included within “Financial results, net” in the statement of income.

4.   Critical accounting estimates and judgments

 

The Group’s critical accounting policies are also consistent with those of the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 described in Note 4.

  

5.   Segment information

 

IFRS 8 “Operating Segments” requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments, which are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria.  Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The CODM evaluates the business based on the differences in the nature of its  operations, products and services.  The amount reported for each segment item is the measure reported to the CODM for these purposes.

 

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

 

●         The Group’s ‘Farming’ line of business is further comprised of three reportable segments:

  

•         The Group’s ‘Crops’ Segment consists of planting, harvesting and sale of grains, oilseeds and fibers (including wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and sunflowers, among others), and to a lesser extent the provision of grain warehousing/conditioning, handling and drying services to third parties, and the purchase and sale of crops produced by third parties crops. Each underlying crop in the Crops segment does not represent a separate operating segment. Management seeks to maximize the use of the land through the cultivation of one or more type of crops. Types and surface amount of crops cultivated may vary from harvest year to harvest year depending on several factors, some of them out of the Group’s control. Management is focused on the long-term performance of the productive land, and to that extent, the performance is assessed considering the aggregated combination, if any, of crops planted in the land. A single manager is responsible for the management of operating activity of all crops rather than for each individual crop.

  

•         The Group’s ‘Rice’ Segment consists of planting, harvesting, processing and marketing of rice;

 

•         The Group’s ‘Dairy’ Segment consists of the production and sale of raw milk and other dairy products;

 

•         The Group’s ‘All Other Segments’ column consists of the aggregation of the remaining non-reportable operating segments, which do not meet the quantitative thresholds for disclosure and for which the Group’s management does not consider them  to be of continuing significance as from January 1, 2014, namely, Coffee and Cattle.

 

●         The Group’s ‘Sugar, Ethanol and Energy’ Segment consists of cultivating sugarcane which is processed in owned sugar mills, transformed into ethanol, sugar and electricity and marketed;

 

●         The Group’s ‘Land Transformation’ Segment comprises the (i) identification and acquisition of underdeveloped and undermanaged farmland businesses; and (ii) realization of value through the strategic disposition of assets (generating profits).

 

The measurement principles for the Group’s segment reporting structure are based on the IFRS principles adopted in the interim financial statements.

10.Financial instruments

 

As of June 30, 2015, the financial instruments recognized at fair value on the statement of financial position comprise derivative financial instruments.

 

In the case of Level 1, valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical financial assets that the Group can refer to at the date of the statement of financial position. A market is deemed active if transactions take place with sufficient frequency and in sufficient quantity for price information to be available on an ongoing basis. Since a quoted price in an active market is the most reliable indicator of fair value, this should always be used if available. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise crop futures and options traded on the stock market. In the case of securities, the Group allocates them to this level when either a stock market price is available or prices are provided by a price quotation on the basis of actual market transactions.

 

Derivatives not traded on the stock market allocated to Level 2 are valued using models based on observable market data. For this, the Group uses inputs directly or indirectly observable in the market, other than quoted prices. If the financial instrument concerned has a fixed contract period, the inputs used for valuation must be observable for the whole of this period. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise interest-rate swaps and foreign-currency interest-rate swaps.

 

In the case of Level 3, the Group uses valuation techniques not based on inputs observable in the market. This is only permissible insofar as no observable market data are available. The inputs used reflect the Group’s assumptions regarding the factors, which market players would consider in their pricing. The Group uses the best available information for this, including internal company data. The Group does not have financial instruments allocated to this level for any of the periods presented.

 

The following tables present the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value as of June 30, 2015 and their allocation to the fair value hierarchy: 

                     
   2015

10. Financial instruments (continued)

 

 When no quoted prices in an active market are available, fair values (particularly with derivatives) are based on recognized valuation methods. The Group uses a range of valuation models for this purpose, details of which may be obtained from the following table:

11. Trade and other receivables, net (continued)

 

 The fair values of current trade and other receivables approximate their respective carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The fair values of non-current trade and other receivables approximate their carrying amount, as the impact of discounting is not significant.

 

 The carrying amounts of the Group’s trade and other receivables are denominated in the following currencies (expressed in US dollars):

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
   2015   2014 
   (unaudited)     
Currency          
US Dollar   50,030    45,341 
Argentine Peso   46,378    49,876 
Uruguayan Peso       8,385 
Brazilian Reais   100,336    111,514 
    196,744    215,116 

 

As of June 30, 2015 trade receivables of US$ 5,891 (December 31, 2014: US$ 4,224) were past due but not impaired. The ageing analysis of these receivables indicates that 927 and 1,269 are over 6 months in June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

 

 The creation and release of allowance for trade receivables have been included in ‘Selling expenses’ in the statement of income. Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off, when there is no expectation of recovering additional cash.

 

 The other classes within other receivables do not contain impaired assets.

 

 The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of receivable mentioned above.

 Sale of 49% of interest in Global Anceo S.L.U. and Global Hisingen S.L.U.

 

 In June, 2014, the Group sold 49% of its interest in Global Anceo S.L.U. and Global Hisingen S.L.U. The main underlying assets of such corporations are Guayacanes and La Guarida farms.

 

 Sale price amounted US$ 50.5 million and US$ 49.4 million was collected as of the transaction’s day. As the Company did not lose control of its subsidiaries, this operation is classified as an equity’s transaction, and the margin of the operation was registered in Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity under the line item “Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries”. The transaction resulted in an increase of equity attributable to owners of the Company of US$ 25.6 million and also an increase in non-controlling interest of US$ 8.0 million.

  Share Repurchase Program

 

On September 24, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company has authorized a share repurchase program for up to 5% of its outstanding shares. The repurchase program has commenced on September 24, 2013 and will be reviewed by the Board of Directors after a 12-month period: repurchases of shares under the program are made from time to time in open market transactions in compliance with the trading conditions of Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and applicable rules and regulations. The share repurchase program does not require Adecoagro to acquire any specific number or amount of shares and may be modified, suspended, reinstated or terminated at any time in the Company’s discretion and without prior notice. The size and the timing of repurchases will depend upon market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. On August 12, 2014 the Board of directors decided to extend the program for a 12 month period. 

   
16. 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 Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan” (referred to as “Restricted Share Plan”) under which the Group grants restricted shares, or restricted stock units to senior and medium management and key employees of the Group’s subsidiaries.

 

(a)   Option Schemes

 

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 the Group incurred US$ nil million for the both period, related to the options granted under the Option Schemes.

(b)   Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan

 

The Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan were effectively established in 2010 and amended in November 2011 and is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company. Awards under this 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 or restricted unit 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. As of June 30, 2015, all the restricted shares were vested.

 

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

 

As of June 30, 2015, the Group recognized compensation expense US$ 0.9 million related to the restricted shares granted under the Restricted Share Plan (2014: US$ 0.8 million).
