UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE NINE
MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2016

 

This Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K (this “Form 6-K”) is being filed by Adecoagro S.A. (“Adecoagro” or the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-3 filed with the SEC on December 6, 2013 (File No. 333-191325) and will be deemed to be a part thereof from the date on which this Form 6-K is filed with the SEC, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished. The Company is filing this report on Form 6-K for the purpose of filing a copy of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) as Exhibit 99.1. 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.

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

 

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 interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on November 10, 2016.

 

2.Basis of preparation and presentation

 

The information presented in the accompanying interim financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is unaudited and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Group as that day results of operations and cash flows for those periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing these 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 December 31, 2015, 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, 2015, except for the changes in accounting policies explained below.

 

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.

 

Changes in accounting policies

 

As explained in note 2 below, the group has adopted the amendments made to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (“IAS 16”) and IAS 41 Agriculture (“IAS 41”) in relation to bearer plants this year. These amendments have resulted in changes in accounting policies and adjustments to the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

 

(a)  Bearer plants

 

In 2014, the IASB made amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 which distinguish bearer plants from other biological assets. Bearer plants are solely used to grow produce over their productive lives and are seen to be similar to an item of machinery. They will therefore now be accounted for under IAS 16. However, agricultural produce growing on bearer plants will remain within the scope of IAS 41 and continue to be measured at fair value less cost to sell.

 

The Group’s sugarcane qualify as bearer plants under the new definition in IAS 41. As required under IAS 8, the change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively. As a consequence, the sugarcane planting and coffee plantations were reclassified to property, plant and equipment and measured at amortized cost, effective January 1, 2016 and comparative figures have been retrospectively revised accordingly. Sugarcane planting are depreciated on straight-line basis over their useful life which was reassessed from 5 to 6 years as from January 1, 2016.

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

 

2.Basis of preparation and presentation (continued)

 

As permitted under the transitional rules, the fair value of the sugarcane as of January 1, 2014 was deemed to be their cost going forward. The difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount was recognized in retained earnings on transition.

 

However, agricultural produce growing on bearer plants will remain under the line biological asset.

 

(b) Impact on financial statements

 

As a result of the changes in the entity’s accounting policies, a prior year financial statement has been revised. The following tables show the adjustments recognized for each individual line item. Line items that were not affected by the change have not been included. As a result, the sub-totals and totals disclosed cannot be recalculated from the numbers provided. As permitted under the transitional rules, the impact on the current period is not disclosed.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the IASB did not publish new standards that would have a material impact on the Group when they become effective.

 

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 September, with the exception of wheat, which is harvested from December to January. Cotton is different in that while an as typically harvested from September to August, it 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. 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, 2015 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 nine month period ended September 30, 2016. These disclosures do not appear in any particular order of potential materiality or probability of occurrence.

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 / depreciation of the US dollar against the respective functional currencies for the period ended September 30, 2016 would have impacted positively /(negatively) in the Group’s results Before Income Tax for the period. A portion of this effect would have been 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 Group expects that the cash flows will occur and affect profit or loss between 2016 and 2020.

 

For the period ended September 30, 2016, a total amount before income tax of US$ 70,574 gain was recognized in other comprehensive income and an amount of US$ (52,186) loss was reclassified from equity to profit or loss within “Financial results, net”.

Other derivative financial instruments

 

As of September 30, 2016, 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, 2015.

 

During the period ended on September 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 had maturity dates ranging between September 2015 and December 2015. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a gain amounting to US$ 0.1 million in 2015.

 

During the period ended September 30, 2016, 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$ 52.5 million. No contract of this kind was entered in 2015. Those contracts entered in 2016 have maturity dates ranging between March 2016 and April 2017. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a loss of US$ 6.8 million in 2016.

During the period ended on September 2016, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts with Argentinian banks in order to hedge the fluctuation of the Argentinian peso against US Dollar for a total notional amount of US$ 33.2 million. The currency forward contracts maturity date is February 2016 and September 2016. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a loss amounting to US$ 0.5 million in 2016.

 

During the period ended on September 2016, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts in order to hedge the fluctuation of the US Dollar against Euro for a total notional amount of US$ 15.8 million. The currency forward contracts maturity date is December 2016 and March 2017.

 

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, 2015 described in Note 4 except the change mentioned in Note 2.

 

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 could 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.

 

In the case of Goodwill, any goodwill acquired is allocated to the cash-generating unit (‘CGU’) expected to benefit from the business combination. As prescribed by IFRS, 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.

 

Farmlands may be used for different activities that may generate independent cash flows. Those farmlands that 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. Most of the farmlands in Argentina and Uruguay are treated as single CGUs.

 

Based on these criteria, management identified a total amount of 39 CGUs as of September 30, 2016 and thirty-eight CGUs as of September 30, 2015.

 

As of September 30, 2016 and 2015, due to the fact that there were no impairment indicators, the Group only tested those CGUs with allocated goodwill in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

4.Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

 

CGUs tested based on a fair-value-less-costs-to-sell model at September 30, 2016 and 2015:

 

As of September 30, 2016, the Group identified 11 CGUs in Argentina and Uruguay (2015: 11 CGUs) to be tested based on this model (all CGUs with allocated 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. Management may be assisted by the work of external advisors. When using this model, the Group applies the “sales comparison approach” as its method of valuing most properties, which 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.

 

Fair values are determined by extensive analysis which includes current and potential soil productivity of the land (the ability to produce crops and maintain livestock) projected margins derived from soil use, rental value obtained for soil use, if applicable, and other factors such as climate and location. 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 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 mainly described above.

 

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 (2015: 11 CGUs) where goodwill was allocated at each period end and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

4.Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

 

CGUs tested based on a value-in-use model at September 30, 2016 and 2015:

 

As of September 30, 2016, the Group identified 3 CGUs (2015: 3 CGUs) in Brazil to be tested base on this model (all CGUs with allocated goodwill). 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. In calculating value-in-use, management may be assisted by the work of external advisors.

 

The key assumptions used by management in the value-in-use calculations which are considered to be most sensitive to the calculation are:

 

Key Assumptions  September 30,
2016
  September 30,
2015
Financial projections  Covers 4 years for UMA  Covers 4 years for UMA
   Cover 7 years for AVI  Cover 7 years for AVI
Yield average growth rates  0-1%  0-1%
Future pricing increases  3% per annum  1% per annum
Future cost increases  3% per annum  1% per annum
Discount rates  9.3%  6.5%
Perpetuity growth rate  2.%  2%

 

Discount rates are based on the risk-free rate for U. S. government bonds, adjusted for a risk premium to reflect the increased risk of investing in South America and Brazil in particular. 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 at each period end and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

 

CGU/ Operating segment  September 30,
2016
   September 30,
2015
 
AVI / Sugar, Ethanol and Energy   4,892    3,997 
UMA / Sugar, Ethanol and Energy   2,564    2,122 
Closing net book value of goodwill allocated to CGUs tested (Note 8)   7,456    6,119 
Closing net book value of PPE items and other assets allocated to CGUs tested   689,857    554,688 
Total assets allocated to 3 CGUs tested   697,313    560,807 

 

Based on the testing above, the Group determined that none of the CGUs, with allocated goodwill, were impaired at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

 

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.

 

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.

5.Segment information (continued)

 

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;

 

§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 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.

 

Total segment assets and liabilities are measured in a manner consistent with that of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. These assets and liabilities are allocated based on the operations of the segment and the physical location of the asset. The Group’s investment in the joint venture CHS S.A. is allocated to the ‘Crops’ segment.

 

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’.

10.Financial instruments

 

As of September 30, 2016, 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 September 30, 2016 and their allocation to the fair value hierarchy:

 

   2016
   Level 1  Level 2  Total
          
Assets

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):

Uruguayan Peso   758    566 
Brazilian Reais   111,314    99,839 
    244,118    166,806 

 

As of September 30, 2016 trade receivables of US$ 16,765 (December 31, 2015: US$ 7,542) were past due but not impaired. The ageing analysis of these receivables indicates that US$ 4,856 and US$ 549 are over 6 months in September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. From the US$ 4,856, we initiated arbitration proceedings for US$ 4,6 million, for which we have an escrow account as collateral.

 

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.

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 granted 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.

26.Disclosure of leases and similar arrangements

 

The Group as lessor - Operating leases

 

On September 2013, Marfrig Argentina S.A. (“Marfrig Argentina”), the argentine subsidiary of the Brazilian company Marfrig Alimentos S.A. (“Marfrig Alimentos"), unilaterally early terminated the lease agreements for grazing land entered into with the Group on December 2009. The termination of the lease agreements was effective in the fourth quarter of 2013, and on April 2014, the Group filed an arbitration proceeding against Marfrig Argentina and Marfrig Alimentos claiming unpaid invoices for US$ 0.5 million and indemnification for early termination. On September 2016, the Parties settled the arbitration proceedings in the amount of US$ 9 million to be paid in two installments. As of today, we have collected US$ 7 million.

 

This settlement, net of the unpaid invoices and other expenses resulted in an income of US$ 8.1 million reflected in the line item Other operating income.
