Bachoco Announces First Quarter 2021 Results

Industrias Bachoco, S.A.B. de C.V., “Bachoco” or “the Company”, (NYSE: IBA; BMV: Bachoco) announced today its unaudited results for the first quarter (“1Q21”) ending March 31, 2021. All figures have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) and are presented in nominal million Mexican Pesos (“$”), except earnings per share.

HIGHLIGHTS- 2021 vs. 2020

  • Net sales increased 23.0% in 1Q21.
  • EBITDA margin was 15.1% in 1Q21 vs 6.0% in 1Q20.
  • Earnings per basic and diluted share were $3.50 in 1Q21 vs $3.61 in 1Q20.

CEO COMMENTS

Mr. Rodolfo Ramos Arvizu, Chief Executive Officer of Bachoco, stated, “We continued observing a good balance between supply and demand which allowed us to achieve outstanding results in our first quarter of 2021, despite adjustments in sales volume, as a result of remaining COVID-19 confinement measures that had effects in some of the markets in which we compete.

Regarding our cost of sales, this quarter we observed the impact of higher raw materials prices in USD terms. Overall, our cost was 11.7% higher than the same quarter of 2020. However, the good balance between supply and demand previously mentioned, allowed us to translate some of that increase to our sales price while we keep doing efforts to also absorb part of that increase thru efficiencies in our processes as well.

Additionally, we have managed to keep our SG&A under control. For 1Q21 ours SG&A as percentage of sales was 8.5%, compared to the 10% recorded in the same period of 2020.

By keeping focus on the things we can control and by doing our best to manage external factors, we were able to achieve an EBITDA in 1Q21 of $2,913.4 million or 15.1% EBITDA margin. This compares to the $947.3 million and 6.0% margin reported for 1Q20.

We remain committed to our investors that we will keep a strong financial position while continuing to grow. As a result, we reported CAPEX of $555.7 million for the quarter which compares to the $292.7 million for the same period of 2020. This was achieved while generating a net cash position of $17,208.1 million by the end of 1Q21.

Unfortunately, the Covid-19 pandemic continues affecting not only México, but also economic conditions all around the world. Even if we did not observe material impacts in our operations or results during 1Q21, we are aware that conditions might change overnight. Therefore, we remain focused on reinforcing our internal capabilities, which will allow us to keep performing at our very best.”

Executive Summary

The following financial information is expressed in millions of nominal pesos, except for amounts per share and per ADR, with comparative figures for the same periods of 2020.
