The following documents are incorporated by reference: None 3 + PART I – BUSINESS AND GENERAL INFORMATION Item 1. Business San Miguel Pure Foods Company, Inc. (SMPFC or the “Company”) was incorporated in 1956 to engage primarily in the business of manufacturing and marketing of processed meat products. The Company, through its subsidiaries, later on diversified into poultry and livestock operations, feeds and flour milling, dairy and coffee operations, franchising (Smokey’s) and young animal ration manufacturing and distribution. The Company has been listed on the PSE since 1971. SMPFC holds in its portfolio the names of some of the most formidable brands in the Philippine food industry, among them, Magnolia, Pure Foods, Monterey, Star, Dari Crème, B-Meg, and JellYace. To date, SMPFC has a product line up that is unparalleled in the industry, offering a variety of food products and services for both individual and food service customers. Its products range from cooking oils, feeds, flour and flour-based products, poultry, fresh and value-added meats, breadfill, dairy and coffee. The support of parent company San Miguel Corporation (SMC) and partnerships with major international companies like United States-based Hormel Foods International Corporation (“Hormel Foods”) and Singapore-based Super Coffee Corporation Pte Ltd (SCCPL) and Penderyn Pte Ltd (“Penderyn”) have given SMPFC access to the latest technologies and expertise, allowing it to deliver flavor, freshness, safety, quality and value-for-money to its customers. There was no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding or material reclassification, merger, consolidation, purchase or sale, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets by the Company, which is not in the ordinary course of business during the past three years, except as described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Performance attached hereto as Annex “D”. Major developments in the Company are also discussed in the said Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Performance, and in Note 11 (Investments and Advances), Note 14 (Intangible Assets), Note 18 (Long-term Debt) and Note 19 (Equity) of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, attached hereto as Annex “E”. On January 20, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) favorably considered the Company’s Registration Statement covering the registration of 15,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of P10.00 per share. On January 26, 2011, the Philippine Stock Exchange, Inc. (PSE) approved, subject to certain conditions, the application of the Company to list up to 15,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of P10.00 per share to cover the Company’s follow-on preferred shares offering at an offer price of P1,000.00 per share and with a dividend rate determined by management on the dividend rate setting date (the “Preferred Shares Offer”). On February 10, 2011, the SEC issued the order for the registration of the Company’s 15,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of P10.00 per share and released the Certificate of Permit to Offer Securities for Sale under the terms of the Preferred Shares Offer. On February 11, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the terms of the Preferred Shares Offer, a summary of which is set out below. 4 + SMPFC, through its underwriters and selling agents, offered 15,000,000 cumulative, non-voting, nonparticipating and non-convertible preferred shares with 5-year maturity at an offer price of P1,000.00 per share during the period February 14 to 25, 2011. The dividend rate was set at 8% per annum with dividend payment dates on March 3, June 3, September 3 and December 3 of each year calculated on a 30/360-day basis, as and if declared by the Board. Optional redemption of the preferred shares prior to the fifth (5th) year from issuance date was provided under certain conditions, subject to the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Unless the preferred shares are redeemed by the Company on its 5th year anniversary, the dividend rate shall be adjusted thereafter to the higher of the dividend rate of 8% or the 10-year PDST-F rate prevailing on the optional redemption date plus 3.33% per annum. The offering was fully subscribed and paid. On March 3, 2011, the Company’s 15,000,000 preferred shares with par value of P10.00 per share were issued and listed on the PSE. Products The Company operates its businesses through the following subsidiaries and division: San Miguel Foods, Inc. (SMFI) - is a 99.97%-owned subsidiary of SMPFC and operates the integrated Feeds, and Poultry and Meats businesses, the San Miguel Food Shop franchising operations, and the San Miguel Integrated Sales selling and distribution activities. a) Feeds business - manufactures and sells different types of feeds to commercial growers. Internal requirements of SMFI’s Poultry and Basic Meats businesses are likewise being served by the Feeds business. b) Poultry and Fresh Meats business - The year 2010 saw the merger of Monterey Foods Corporation (“Monterey”) with SMFI, with the latter as the surviving corporation. Monterey’s Fresh Meats business was folded into SMFI’s Poultry business following the said merger. The business engages in poultry operations and sells live birds, frozen and fresh chilled birds, and cutups. It is also into livestock farming and processing and selling of meat products, mainly pork and cattle. Fresh produce, as well as further processed or value-added meat products are sold in Monterey meat shops located in major supermarkets and cities throughout the country. The business supplies the chicken meat requirements of The Purefoods-Hormel Company, Inc. (“PF-Hormel”), an affiliate, for the latter’s manufacture of chicken-based value-added products. It also supplies PF-Hormel’s primals requirements. c) San Miguel Food Shop - engages in franchising operations, established primarily to showcase the San Miguel Group’s food and beverage products and to further enhance consumer awareness. There are four (4) outlets operating as at December 31, 2010. d) San Miguel Integrated Sales (SMIS) - was formed in May 2009 when the receivables, inventories and fixed assets of SMC’s Centralized Key Accounts Group (CKAG) were transferred to SMFI. Just like SMC’s CKAG, SMIS is 5 + engaged in the business of selling and distributing various products of SMPFC’s subsidiaries to modern trade customers. San Miguel Mills, Inc. (SMMI) - is a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMPFC and engages in the manufacture and distribution of flour and premixes. The Purefoods-Hormel Company, Inc. - is a 60%-40% joint venture between the Company and Hormel Netherlands B.V., which produces and markets value added or processed meats (hotdogs, hams, bacons, cold cuts and gourmet meat) and canned meat products (corned beef, luncheon meat, Vienna sausage, pork and beans, liver spread and meat loaf). PF-Hormel also distributes value-added pork, beef and poultry products such as chicken/pork nuggets, chicken balls, chicken hotdogs, premium marinated chicken, cordon bleu, beef burgers, budget patties, longganisa lines and ready-to-eat meat products. Magnolia Inc. (“Magnolia”) - is a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMPFC and manufactures and markets butter, margarine, cheese, milk, ice cream and cooking oils. The business also handles the sale and marketing of jellies and desserts. The production of jellies and desserts is currently outsourced to third party tollers after its subsidiary-toller, Sugarland Corporation, ceased its tolling operations in February 2008. PT San Miguel Pure Foods Indonesia (PTSMPFI, formerly PT Pure Foods Suba Indah) - started as a 49%-51% joint venture between the Company and the Hero Group of Companies and organized in 1995 for the manufacture and distribution of processed meats in Indonesia. In 2004, SMPFC increased its ownership to 75% following the Hero Group’s divestment of its interest in PTSMPFI to Lasalle Financial Inc. (“Lasalle”). The remaining 25% is currently owned by Penderyn by virtue of the sale and transfer by Lasalle of its entire shareholding in PTSMPFI to Penderyn effective February 2, 2010. On February 5, 2010, Lasalle, Penderyn and SMPFC executed an Adherence Agreement pursuant to which Penderyn agreed to observe and perform all obligations of Lasalle under the Joint Venture Agreement relating to PTSMPFI. San Miguel Super Coffeemix Co., Inc. (SMSCCI) - is a 70%-30% joint venture between the Company and Super Coffeemix Manufacturing Ltd (SCML) of Singapore, which started commercial operations in April 2005 by markeing its 3-in-1 coffee mixes in the Philippines. Since then, SMSCCI has introduced a good number of products that include a sugar-free line of coffee mixes, a premium line of coffee mixes, 100% Premium Instant Coffee, 2-in-1 coffee mixes and a pro-health line of coffee mixes. In November 2009, by virtue of the Deed of Assignment and Deed of Novation of Joint Venture Agreement executed by and among SMSCCI, SCML and SCCPL, SCML assigned and transferred its entire shareholding in SMSCCI to SCCPL, and SCCPL agreed to perform and comply with all obligations of SCML under the Joint Venture Agreement relating to SMSCCI. SMPFC’s Great Food Solutions (GFS) - is the food service division of the Company that caters to hotels, restaurants and institutional accounts for their meat, poultry, dairy and flour-based requirements, as well as provides food solutions/recipes and menus. GFS also handles the Smokey’s hotdog bar, San Mig Café restaurant, and Outbox food-to-go stall/cart franchising operations. 6 + San Miguel Pure Foods International, Limited (SMPFIL) - is a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in February 2007 and is 100%-owned by SMPFC. In July 2010, SMPFC acquired San Miguel Pure Foods (Vn) Co., Ltd. (SMPFVN), a company incorporated in Vietnam that engages in live hog farming and the production of feeds and fresh and processed meats, through SMPFIL. San Miguel Pure Foods Investment (BVI) Limited (“SMPFI Limited”, formerly TTCV Investment (B.V.I.) Co. Ltd.) - is a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in August 1996 and started as a 51%-49% joint venture between San Miguel Foods and Beverage International Limited (SMFBIL) and Hormel Netherlands B.V.. In July 2010, SMPFIL acquired SMC’s 51% interest (through SMFBIL) in SMPFI Limited. SMPFI Limited owns 100% of SMPFVN. SMPFC Capital Investments, Limited - is a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMPFC incorporated in the Cayman Islands in November 2010. It has no commercial operations to date. RealSnacks Mfg. Corp. - was incorporated in April 2004 as a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMPFC. However, commercial operations have yet to commence. The list of products and/or services of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) is attached hereto as Annex “A”. Amounts of revenue, profitability, and identifiable assets attributable to domestic operations for 2010, 2009 and 2008 follow: Sales Operating income Total Assets 2010 P 79,269,760 5,901,769 47,518,089 ( in 000’s ) 2009 P 75,042,967 4,637,624 40,175,873 2008 P 71,075,925 1,842,611 37,002,031 Percentage of Sales Contributed by Export Sales Information as to the relative contribution of the operating segments to total sales is as follows: Sales Agro-Industrial Value-Added Meats Milling Others TOTAL 2010 P 79,269,760 (in 000’s) 2009 P 75,042,967 2008 P 71,075,925 65.98% 14.55% 9.03% 10.44% 100.00% 65.39% 14.97% 9.97% 9.67% 100.00% 63.29% 16.27% 11.53% 8.91% 100.00% The consolidated revenues include P1,157.4 million or about 1.46% in export sales of the Company’s several businesses. 7 + Distribution Methods of Products and Services The Group utilizes different modes of distribution depending on the location and how the subsidiary/division operates. In general, third party logistics providers are hired to provide services related to warehousing, transporting and delivery of goods from the businesses’ plants and warehouses to the distributors/dealers, depots and meat shops or directly to key retail and institutional customers based in Metro Manila and Luzon. For those based in Visayas and Mindanao, goods are transported through forwarders and shipping lines. To maximize utilization of haulers/truckers that cater to the requirements of the value-added businesses of the Company, namely, Magnolia, PF-Hormel, SMMI’s retail flour line and SMSCCI, the Company’s Division Logistics Group centrally manages and directs the warehousing, hauling and delivery activities of the third party logistics providers. To ensure product availability at all times, Poultry and Monterey maintain a combined sales force to handle selling of their products to major accounts like supermarkets/hypermarkets and meat shops, and engage third party distributors and dealers to handle the selling of their products to groceries and wet markets. SMMI relies mainly on its distributors/dealers for the marketing and selling of flour to major noodle factories and bakeries. The value-added businesses, through SMIS, likewise utilize the services of distributors for the marketing of their products to tertiary channels such as sari-sari stores and market stalls. The Feeds business, on the other hand, largely depends on its strategically located distributors nationwide. Selling of Magnolia, PF-Hormel, SMMI’s retail flour and SMSCCI products to both modern and general trades such as major supermarket chains, hypermarkets, groceries and convenience stores are being handled by SMIS. GFS, meanwhile, takes care of selling Poultry, SMMI, PF-Hormel, SMSCCI, Fresh Meats and Magnolia goods to key foodservice customers such as hotels, restaurants, bakeshops, and fast-food and pizza chains. Development of New Product or Service The Group does not have any publicly announced new major product that is being developed. Competition The Company is known for its high quality products and well-known brands in the market and is regarded as one of the leaders in the food manufacturing industry. It is estimated that SMFI’s Feeds business accounts for more than one-third of the feeds milling industry and competes with five national and numerous regional feed mill companies that include Univet Nutrition and Animal Health Care Co., Universal Robina Corporation (URC), Purina/Cargill, General Milling Corporation (GMC), Cheil Jedang, Selecta and other local feed millers. The Feeds milling industry falls under the commodity type of industry with most of its major raw materials such as corn, soybean meal and feed wheat categorized as global commodities. Since feed millers use some imported major raw materials, the industry is affected by foreign exchange fluctuations. The industry derives its sales mainly from hog and broiler population. Majority of local industry players have evolved from merely selling feeds products to offering total value service packages to customers. In an effort to increase sales volume and grab market share, many companies implement 8 + more flexible credit terms, after-harvest payment schemes and volume lock-in programs. Technical services and buy-back schemes are also offered to customers. In terms of product promotion, some market players aggressively invest in various types of visibility campaigns, the most popular of which is through tri-media placements. SMFI’s Poultry business is considered a major player in its industry group and competes with integrators such as Bounty Fresh Foods, Inc./Bounty Agro Ventures, Inc., Cobb Vantress Philippines, Inc., URC, Swift Foods, Inc. and other independent commercial growers. The industry is generally attracting more new entrants as a result of frequent occurrences of supply shortages and high prices over the last few years. Moreover, it continues to exhibit a commodity behavior with performance subject to the law of supply and demand. Most of the major integrators employ contract-growing schemes for the production of live broilers. Also a common practice among the big market players is the contract breeding and toll dressing arrangements. In terms of promotional activities, the most popular schemes employed by poultry retailers are bundling with another push product or a complementary item and product samplings. Also being offered on a regular basis is the granting of discounts. SMFI Poultry’s competitive advantages lie in the areas of breed management, growing efficiencies, sales and distribution network, and customer care. SMFI’s Fresh Meats business is considered a major player in the highly fragmented domestic pork and beef markets and competes with integrators such as Robina Farms, Foremost Farms and several other commercial-scale and numerous small-scale hog farms that supply live hogs to traders, who in turn supply hog carcasses to wet markets and supermarkets. Since fresh meats are regarded as commodity products, the industry’s performance greatly depends on the law of supply and demand. Backyard players largely dominate the unbranded fresh meats segment while SMFI’s Fresh Meats business, carrying the “Monterey” brand, accounts for a larger share in the branded segment. Among the market players in the commercial-scale group, SMFI’s Fresh Meats business has the biggest farm with the largest capacity and size of operations, as well as the latest technology in breeding, livestock raising, slaughtering and meat wholesaling. To date, there are 383 Monterey meat shops nationwide distributing quality meats to consumers. SMMI’s Flour business belongs to a highly commoditized industry sensitive to price movements and characterized by low brand loyalty. It accounts for the largest market share in the industry and competes on the basis of price, quality and distribution. Other players with vast resources and who compete for market share are GMC, URC, Philippine Foremost Milling, Wellington Flour Mills, PILMICO Foods Corporation, RFM Corporation (RFM), Morning Star, Liberty Flour Mills, Philippine Flour Mill, Delta and Monde Nissin. Competition within the industry is intense due to the prevailing excess capacity and low profit margins for both flour millers and dealers/distributors. Although the volume brought by the entry in the Philippine flour market of other international and regional flour producers in recent years have been generally sporadic, it still drew intense competition among market players. Considered growth drivers of the industry are population growth rate, demand for bread and other flour-based products, growth of the bakery sector and home baking. Although price is the main purchasing consideration, the quality of products and services offered cannot be discounted in acquiring customer patronage. Flour continues to be more of an intermediary product used as a raw material rather than a consumer product. The Value-Added or Processed Meats business under PF-Hormel remains the leader in the hotdog market and is one of the leading players in the canned goods market. Other players in the valueadded or processed meats’ business include Foodsphere, Inc. (CDO), Virginia Foods, Inc. (Winner and Champion), RFM (Swift), Mekeni, Pacific Meat Company, Inc. (Argentina and 555) and the distributors of Maling. In recent years, PF-Hormel experienced increased competition from both established local players, which are employing aggressive pricing and promotion schemes, and from 9 + new entrants to the market. The business responded to this competition by increasing its below-theline spending on promotions for its value-added meats businesses, as well as introducing new product lines. It also employed a strategy of launching fighter brands and engaging in extensive advertising and promotion for its key brands to maintain its leadership position. To further improve its position in the market, PF-Hormel capitalized on its extensive distribution network, brand equity and high quality image, technology link with joint venture partner Hormel Foods and effective promotions and advertising. Noted trends in the industry are the consumers’ preference for smaller size and lowerpriced brands and the growing demand for healthy products, i.e., low sodium, low fat and no MSG (monosodium glutamate). Still found effective in pushing sales are product innovations, sponsorships of major events and the conduct of promotional activities using novelty items. Magnolia offers a wide array of products to Filipino consumers and its Magnolia brand is recognized as one of the most trusted brands in the country. It competes in various categories, which include bread spreads such as butter, margarine (refrigerated and non-refrigerated), and cheese, ready-todrink milk, jelly-based snacks, cooking oil and ice cream. Magnolia caters to both retail and institutional sectors of the market. While brand building is critical to the retail sector, the institutional segment is more price-driven. Magnolia is believed to be the leader in the butter category followed by New Zealand Milk Products and New Zealand Creamery (NZC). In the refrigerated margarine category where NZC and RFM also compete, Magnolia accounts for a significant market share. The same holds true in the non-refrigerated margarine category. In the cheese category, however, Kraft Phils. is believed to be the leading player followed by Magnolia and NZC. Major players in the bread spreads industry continue to reach consumers via tri-media to spur trial and usage for their products and have resorted to downsizing to reduce cash outlay in line with efforts to sustain consumption. Innovation and more product offerings with health benefits remain as the basic theme in the breadfill market. In the jelly-based snacks industry, on the other hand, where Magnolia and Knotsberry Farm are the major players, slowed growth in recent years was noted as more varieties of alternative snack products became available. The industry was also marked by the proliferation of imported, lowpriced, unbranded jelly snacks in tertiary outlets such as market stalls and sari-sari stores. The milk industry, which registered stable growth in recent years, has Nestle and Alaska as the major players with Magnolia following suit. Selecta, Nestle and Magnolia, on the other hand, are considered the big players in the ice cream industry. The Company’s coffee business under SMSCCI is estimated to be occupying the number three position in terms of market share in the coffee mix segment with its sugar-free line leading the sugarfree coffee mix category. The coffee industry, composed of instant coffee, coffee mixes and readyto-drink coffee, is still dominated by Nestle who is the market leader in almost all coffee subcategories. Next in line, based on AC Nielsen’s survey, is Tridharma Marketing Corp., maker of Kopiko. Other market players include URC (Great Taste), Kraft Foods Inc. (Maxwell House), Commonwealth Foods, Inc. (Café Puro) and Goldshine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Jimm’s). Coffee remains to be among the top beverages consumed in the country and appealing to a much broader market. SMPFC, with its strong financial position, believes it could sustain the competitiveness of its different businesses. It will continue to improve and introduce quality products and create product differentiation. 10 + Purchase of Raw Materials and Supplies Major suppliers of SMFI’s Feeds business for its soybean meal requirements are Singapore-based Louis Dreyfus Commodities Asia and U.S.A.-based Noble Resources S.A. and AG Processing, Inc. Other raw materials, on the other hand, are sourced from various local suppliers. SMFI’s Poultry business’ breeder stocks are imported mostly from Cobb Vantress Inc. and Aviagen Group, both of which are agribusiness firms based in U.S.A. The feeds requirements of SMFI’s Fresh Meats business are served by SMFI’s Feeds business. SMMI’s Flour business imports more than 20% of its wheat requirements from U.S.A.-based Columbia Grains International and Canada-based The Canadian Wheat Board. PF-Hormel gets its pork requirements from various local suppliers and from affiliate, SMFI. On the other hand, more than 20% of its Indian buffalo meat requirements are imported from India-based Allanasons Limited. Magnolia imports more than 20% of its major raw materials, such as cheese curds and AMF (anhydrous milk fat), from Fonterra (SEA) Pte Limited (formerly New Zealand Milk Products) based in Singapore while the bulk of its oil requirements are sourced from Tap Oil Manufacturing Corp. SMSCCI imports its coffee mixes for repacking from SCCPL based in Singapore and from SCML (Thailand) Company Ltd. Except for SMFI’s Fresh Meats business and SMSCCI whose feeds requirements and coffee mixes, as the case may be, are provided solely by SMFI’s Feeds business, and SCCPL and SCML, respectively, the Company and its subsidiaries are not dependent on one or a limited number of suppliers for its essential raw materials and supplies, such that, operations will not be disrupted if any supplier refuses or cannot meet its delivery commitment. Customers The Company and its subsidiaries have a broad market base that includes supermarkets, hypermarkets, grocery stores, cooperative stores, sari-sari stores, convenience stores, warehouse clubs, mini-marts, market stalls, wet market vendors/dealers and commissaries, wholesalers/distributors, animal raisers, buyers of live birds and institutional accounts (i.e., fast food outlets and restaurants, burger and pizza chains, bakeshops/bakeries, hotels, snack/biscuit manufacturers, noodle manufacturers, membership clubs, school/office canteens and franchise holders). The Company sells its products to Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao through its own sales force or SMIS and through strategically located partners/distributors all over the country. Except for GFS, whose sales through Jollibee account for more than 20% of its total business, the Company’s other subsidiaries are not dependent on any single customer. This gives the businesses flexibility in managing their sales activities. Except for PF-Hormel, Magnolia and SMSCCI, and GFS, whose sales through SMIS and Jollibee, respectively, account for more than 20% of their total businesses, the Company’s other subsidiaries are not dependent on any single customer. This gives the businesses flexibility in managing their sales activities. 11 + Transactions with and/or Dependence on related parties The Group, in its regular course of business, transact with related parties. These transactions, which include the purchase/sale of goods and services, are further discussed in the foregoing section on Purchase of Raw Materials and Supplies and further in Note 28 (Related Party Disclosures) of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto as Annex “E”. Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights, Licenses All marks used by the Company and its subsidiaries on its principal products in the Philippines and foreign markets, are either registered or pending registration in the name of SMPFC or an affiliate company. Government Approvals The Company and its subsidiaries have obtained all necessary permits, licenses and government approvals to manufacture and sell its products. Governmental Regulation The Company and its subsidiaries have no knowledge of recent or probable governmental regulations, the implementation of which can result in a material adverse effect on the Company and its significant subsidiaries’ business or financial position. Research and Development Total amount spent by the Company and its significant subsidiaries on research and development for the years 2010, 2009 and 2008 were P 51.3 million, P 55.7 million and P 52.1 million, respectively. As a percentage of net sales revenues, spending on research and development in each of the last three years translates to barely 0.1%. Cost of Compliance with Environmental Laws The Company and its subsidiaries incurred about P 25.5 million in expenses for environmental compliance. On an annual basis, operating expenses incurred by the Group to comply with environment laws are not significant or material relative to the Company and its subsidiaries’ total cost and revenues. Human Resources and Labor Matters Please see the list of Collective Bargaining Agreements entered into by the Company and its significant subsidiaries with its various employee unions, as well as the Group’s employee headcount by position attached hereto as Annex “B”. 12 + The Group does not expect any significant change in its existing workforce level within the ensuing 12 months. The Company and majority of its subsidiaries have funded, noncontributory retirement plans covering all of its permanent employees. The retirement plans are described in Note 27 (Retirement Plans) of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company attached hereto as Annex “E”. Major Business Risks The major business risks the Company and its subsidiaries have to contend with are the following: Competitor/Market Risks New and existing competitors can erode the Group’s competitive advantage through the introduction of new products, improvement of product quality, increase in production efficiency, new and updated technologies, costs reductions and the reconfiguration of the industry’s value chain. To manage all these, the Group comes up with new exciting products, improves product propositions and packaging, and redefines the manner of product distribution. Catastrophy and Environmental Risks Rigorous weather conditions and outbreaks of animal diseases such as bird flu or avian influenza (chicken), foot-and-mouth and Ebola Reston (hogs) and mad cow are all beyond the control of the Group, but could have severe effect on its business operations. To manage these occasional outbreaks, the Group adopted preventive measures like farm sanitation and bio-security to minimize, if not totally avoid, the risks from these diseases. Social and Cultural Risks Consumer taste and preferences have evolved through time due to a host of reasons such as health, fads and fast-paced lifestyles. The Group manages these risks by establishing a small presence first in food products where consumer preferences seem to be leaning towards. Should demand take off and stabilize, operations are expanded. Sourcing Risks/Price Risks Alternative sources of raw materials are used in the Group’s operations to avoid and manage risks on unstable supply and higher costs. This is true for most businesses that have foreign-denominated raw material requirements. The Company and some of its subsidiaries enter into various commodity derivatives to manage its price risks on strategic commodities. Commodity hedging allows predictability in prices, thus offsetting the risk of volatile market fluctuations. Through hedging, prices of commodities are fixed at levels acceptable to the Company, with the objective of protecting raw material cost and preserving margins. 13 + Financial Risks For the various financial risks, please refer to Note 31 (Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies) of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto as Annex “E”. Item 2. Properties The locations of the various plants and farms owned and leased by the Group are attached hereto as Annex “C”.

The Company and its subsidiaries have no principal properties that are subject to a mortgage, lien or encumbrance. For properties leased by the Company and its subsidiaries, the term of lease is normally on a yearly basis and annual rentals amount to P 584.3 million on an aggregate basis. There are no imminent acquisitions of any material property, which cannot be funded by the working capital of the Group. For additional information on the Company’s properties, please refer to Note 13 (Property, Plant and Equipment) of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto as Annex “E”. Item 3.

Adoption of New or Revised Standards, Amendments to Standards and Interpretations The FRSC approved the adoption of a number of new or revised standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations [based on IFRIC Interpretations] as part of PFRS. Accordingly, the Group changed its accounting policies in the following areas: Adopted Effective 2010 The Group has adopted the following PFRS starting January 1, 2010 and accordingly, changed its accounting policies to conform with these PFRS: Revised PFRS 3, Business Combinations (2008), effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009, incorporates the following changes that are likely to be relevant to the Group’s operations: - The definition of a business has been broadened, which is likely to result in more acquisitions being treated as business combinations. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value, with subsequent changes therein recognized in profit or loss. Transaction costs, other than share and debt issue costs, are expensed as incurred. Any pre-existing interest in the acquiree is measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. Any non-controlling interest is measured at either fair value, or at its Any proportionate interest in the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree, on a transaction-bytransaction basis. The Group applied Revised PFRS 3 (2008) in the acquisition of SMPFI Limited, through SMPFIL. Revised PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (2008), effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009, requires accounting for changes in ownership interests by the Company in a subsidiary, while maintaining control, to be recognized as an equity transaction. When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, any interest retained in the former subsidiary will be measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. Amendments to PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - Eligible Hedged Items, provide for the following: a) new application guidance to clarify the existing principles that determine whether specific risks or portions of cash flows are eligible for designation in a hedge relationship; and b) additional application guidance on qualifying items; assessing hedge effectiveness; and designation of financial items as hedged items. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. 45 + Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 17, Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners, provides guidance on the accounting for non-reciprocal distributions of non-cash assets to owners acting in their capacity as owners. It also applies to distributions in which the owners may elect to receive either the non-cash asset or a cash alternative. The liability for the dividend payable is measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed. The interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. Improvements to PFRSs 2008 - Amendments to PFRS 5, Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, specify that if an entity is committed to a plan to sell a subsidiary, then it would classify all of that subsidiary’s assets and liabilities as held for sale when the held for sale criteria in paragraphs 6 to 8 of PFRS 5 are met. This applies regardless of the entity retaining an interest (other than control) in the subsidiary. Disclosures for discontinued operations are required by the parent when a subsidiary meets the definition of a discontinued operation. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. Amendments to PFRS 2, Share-based Payment: Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions, clarify the scope of PFRS 2, that an entity that receives goods or services in a share-based payment arrangement must account for those goods or services no matter which entity in the group settles the transaction, and regardless of whether the transaction is equitysettled or cash-settled; and the interaction of PFRS 2 and other standards, that in PFRS 2, a “group” has the same meaning as in PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, that is, it includes only a parent and its subsidiaries. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010. Improvements to PFRSs 2009, contain 15 amendments to 12 standards. The improvements are generally effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010. The following are the said improvements or amendments to PFRS: - PFRS 2, Share-based Payment: Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions and PFRS 3, Business Combinations (2008). The amendments clarify that business combinations as defined in PFRS 3 (2008) are outside the scope of PFRS 2, notwithstanding that they may be outside the scope of PFRS 3 (2008). Therefore business combinations among entities under common control and the contribution of a business upon the formation of a joint venture will not be accounted for under PFRS 2. - PAS 38, Intangible Assets. The amendments clarify that: (i) an intangible asset that is separable only together with a related contract, identifiable asset or liability is recognized separately from goodwill together with the related item; and (ii) complementary intangible assets with similar useful lives may be recognized as a single asset. The amendments also describe valuation techniques commonly used by entities when measuring the fair value of intangible assets acquired in a business combination for which no active market exists. - Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 9, Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) amended the scope of IFRIC 9 so that embedded derivatives in contracts acquired in business combinations as defined in PFRS 3 (2008), joint venture formations and common control transactions remain outside the scope of IFRIC 9. 46 + - Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 16, Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation. The amendments remove the restriction that prevented a hedging instrument from being held by a foreign operation that itself is being hedged. - PFRS 5, Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The amendments clarify that the required disclosures for noncurrent assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale or discontinued operations are specified in PFRS 5. - PFRS 8, Operating Segments. The amendments clarify that segment information with respect to total assets is required only if such information is regularly reported to the chief operating decision maker. - PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendments clarify that the classification of the liability component of a convertible instrument as current or noncurrent is not affected by terms that could, at the option of the holder of the instrument, result in settlement of the liability by the issue of equity instruments. - PAS 7, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments clarify that only expenditures that result in the recognition of an asset can be classified as a cash flow from investing activities. - PAS 17, Leases. The IASB deleted guidance stating that a lease of land with an indefinite economic life normally is classified as an operating lease, unless at the end of the lease term title is expected to pass to the lessee. The amendments clarify that when a lease includes both the land and building elements, an entity should determine the classification of each element based on paragraphs 7 - 13 of PAS 17, taking account of the fact that land normally has an indefinite economic life. - PAS 36, Impairment of Assets. The amendments clarify that the largest unit to which goodwill should be allocated is the operating segment level as defined in PFRS 8 before applying the aggregation criteria of PFRS 8. - PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The amendments provide: (i) additional guidance on determining whether loan prepayment penalties result in an embedded derivative that needs to be separated; (ii) clarify that the scope exemption in PAS 39 paragraph 2(g) is restricted to forward contracts, i.e. not options, between an acquirer and a selling shareholder to buy or sell an acquiree that will result in a business combination at a future acquisition date within a reasonable period normally necessary to obtain any required approvals and to complete the transaction; and (iii) clarify that the gains or losses on a cash flow hedge should be reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss during the period that the hedged forecast cash flows impact profit or loss. The adoption of these foregoing new or revised standards, amendments to standards and interpretations did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Additional disclosures required by the revised standards and improvements were included in the consolidated financial statements, where applicable. 47 + II. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE 2010 vs 2009 SMPFC and subsidiaries ended the year with consolidated revenues reaching record level high at P79.3 billion, a 6% growth or a P4.2 billion increase from 2009 level mainly due to higher volume generated through improved distribution network, strong export sales and new products introduction. The consolidation of SMPFVN also contributed P974.4 million to the Group’s revenues in 2010. The increase in the Group’s sales turnover, combined with sustained operational efficiency improvements, cost reduction initiatives and cost breaks in some major raw materials translated to better margins, thus the 18% surge in gross profit versus same period last year. Selling and administrative expenses went up by 12% on account of higher manpower costs, increased advertising and promotions spending on brand building and product visibility activities, and the impact of the escalation in fuel prices on distribution and transportation, among other expenses. The full year effect of the transfer of CKAG from SMC in May 2009 likewise contributed to the increase in selling and administrative expenses. CKAG, now known as SMIS, handles the selling function to service the Group’s modern and general trade customers for branded products. The decrease in banks’ interest rates, combined with lower average level of borrowings for working capital requirements due to subsidiaries’ settlement of maturing short-term loans, resulted in the 52% drop in interest expense and other financing charges versus 2009’s level. Interest income rose by 53% due to the increase in the average level of money market placements. Loss on retirement of fixed assets, which was presented net of the gain on sale of property and equipment in the consolidated statements of income, increased by 32% mainly on account of PF-Hormel’s retirement of certain fixed assets that were completely damaged by a typhoon. Other income (charges) - net contrasted that of last year on account of realized mark-to-market gain on derivatives in 2010 due to favorable foreign exchange rates versus realized mark-to-market loss on derivatives in 2009. The strong overall performance of the Group, as well as lower interest rates, resulted in income before income tax and net income growing by 49% and 53%, respectively, versus same period in 2009. Income tax expense was similarly higher by 40% due to the increase in taxable income. Net income attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company grew by 48% versus 2009 level due to better combined performances of subsidiaries where SMPFC holds significant ownership. Profit recorded by subsidiaries where non-controlling stockholders hold stake likewise improved, thus, the increase in net income attributable to non-controlling interests. 48 + Business Highlights: Agro-Industrial SMFI’s Feeds Business registered commercial sales’ volume and revenue growth of 10% and 9%, respectively, on account of better selling prices and various selling and marketing programs implemented. The use of alternative raw materials, which translated to cost savings, and other business-initiated cost reduction and efficiency improvement programs likewise yielded positive results. The business spent on additional advertising and promotion to support development and promote awareness of its fighting cock feed segment, thus the increase in its operating expenses. Income from operations registered almost at par that of last year’s level. The recently-combined Poultry Business of SMFI and Fresh Meats Business of Monterey led the Group in terms of revenue contribution as it posted 9% and 4% increase in volume and revenue, respectively. Operating income, on the other hand, registered a double-digit growth versus 2009 level. Poultry business alone posted 13% and 9% increase in volume and revenue, respectively, due to improved supply availability. The continuous drive to improve operational efficiencies and reduce costs enabled the business to achieve profit improvement over the same period last year. The Fresh Meats Business, on the other hand, sustained its turnaround in profitability due to effective management of fixed costs and improvements in operational efficiencies and distribution network. Value-Added Although volume was at par with last year, The PF-Hormel’s Value-Added or Processed Meats Business registered a modest revenue growth of 2% due to the favorable performances of the hotdog and exports categories. Operating income was higher than 2009’s level on account of lower fixed costs spending, use of alternative materials which cushioned the impact of higher raw material prices, and toll fee recovery from insurance. Milling The Company’s Flour Business under SMMI posted a modest volume growth of 1% versus 2009 level. Revenue, however, was 2% short versus same period last year due to lower flour selling prices, mainly influenced by lower global wheat prices and freight costs. Nevertheless, the business recorded an operating performance higher than last year on account of better margins. Dairy & Others Revenue of the Dairy, Fats and Oils Business under Magnolia was 3% higher than last year’s level as butter, cheese and cooking oil categories recorded improvements in sales turnover. However, the onetime payment of retirement benefits and the increase in prices of some major raw materials during the last quarter of 2010 prevented the business to register operating profit higher than previous year. On the other hand, Magnolia’s ice cream products posted 15% and 16% growth in volume and revenue, respectively. SMSCCI’s volume and revenue grew by 26% and 17%, respectively, on account of the improved sales in general trade. A turn around in operating profit was likewise registered by the business. GFS, the food service division of the Company, registered volume and revenue almost at par with 2009 level in spite of lost volumes brought about by price hikes in flour and decreased share in the supply requirements of some convenience store outlets. Operating profit was lower than last year as 49 + some major fast food outlets started to engage in backward integration. Total number of outlets served went up from 9,456 in 2009 to 9,518 in 2010. 2009 vs 2008 Amidst a global economic downturn in 2009, SMPFC proved its resiliency as it ended the year with a record-breaking performance. Consolidated revenues reached P 75 billion, a 6% growth or P 4 billion increase from 2008 level. Poultry, Basic Meats and Dairy businesses registered double-digit year-onyear revenue growth due to better prices as well as higher volume generated through sustained marketing and selling activities and improved distribution network. The Group maintained market leadership in most of its categories in spite of a challenging business environment. The growth in the Group’s sales turnover, combined with cost breaks in raw material prices enjoyed by some businesses, continuous operational efficiency improvements and cost reduction initiatives resulted in improved margins, thus the 30% surge in gross profit versus 2008. The Group likewise started to reap the benefits of its efforts initiated in prior years of addressing operating expenses as increase in selling and administrative expenses was tempered at 4%. Decrease in banks’ interest rates, combined with lower average level of borrowings for working capital requirements, resulted in the drop of interest expense and financing charges by 10% from 2008’s level. Interest income rose by 27% due to the increase in the average level of money market placements. Loss on retirement of fixed assets, which was presented net of the gain (loss) on sale of property and equipment in the consolidated statements of income, increased versus same period in 2008 on account of the continuous rationalization of existing food shop outlets of SMFI and due to SMMI’s write down of leasehold improvements following the change in management’s intention on its branded business. Other charges - net significantly dropped on account of unrealized gain on derivatives in 2009 due to favorable foreign exchange rates versus unrealized loss on derivatives in 2008. The Group’s remarkable overall performance driven by cost breaks in major raw materials, operational efficiency improvements, as well as effective cost management, resulted in income before income tax and net income growing by five (5) times and seventeen (17) times more, respectively, versus same period in 2008. Income tax expense was similarly higher by 152% due to increase in taxable income. Net income attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company increased significantly versus 2008 level due to better combined performances of subsidiaries where SMPFC holds significant ownership. On the other hand, profit recorded by a subsidiary where non-controlling stockholders hold stake declined, thus, the 14% drop in net income attributable to non-controlling interests. 50 + Business Highlights: Agro-Industrial In spite of continued contraction in the hog industry, SMFI’s Feeds Business managed to register volume almost at par with 2008 and posted a modest revenue growth of 1% on account of the strong performance of the business’ premium segments. Business-initiated cost reduction and efficiency improvement programs likewise helped temper the effects of increasing costs of some raw materials, particularly soybean meal and corn. The use of alternative raw materials and energy sources resulted in substantial savings contributing to the record-high operating profits registered by the Feeds Business. SMFI’s Poultry Business, which consistently accounts for the biggest share in the Group’s revenue, posted a 16% increase in sales revenue driven by an 8% volume growth and favorable selling prices. Continuous efforts to improve operational efficiencies and reduce costs helped in achieving a doubledigit profit improvement over the same period in 2008. The Fresh Meats Business (Monterey) registered a turnaround in operating profits due to the implementation of cost reduction initiatives and the improvements made on the distribution network and operational efficiencies. Amidst hog industry contraction, volume and revenue grew by 16% and 15%, respectively, as Monterey was able to take advantage of market demand with available supply due to capacity expansions undertaken in 2009 and in prior years. Value-Added The Value-Added or Processed Meats Business under PF-Hormel experienced a very tough year as volume and revenue fell short by 7% and 2%, respectively, versus same period in 2008. Aside from contending with tight competition and market contraction, production capacity constraints resulting from the untimely shutdown of its Marikina Plant in the last quarter of 2009 following the damage caused by typhoon Ondoy, adversely affected the business unit’s profitability. Increase in costs of major raw materials and overhead likewise contributed to dampened profits of the business. Milling The Company’s Flour Business under SMMI likewise registered operating profit growth versus 2008 due to better margins despite a challenging business environment brought about by the threat posed by the influx of cheaper flour imports. Volumes grew by 8%, however, revenues declined by 7% due to downward adjustments in flour’s selling prices influenced by lower global wheat prices and decrease in freight costs. Dairy & Others The Dairy, Fats and Oils Business, under Magnolia registered a turnaround in operating profits due to improved operational efficiencies and cost breaks from most of its strategic raw materials. Revenue reached P 5.3 billion, 10% better than 2008 level due to better volume performance of Magnolia’s milk, ice cream and most of its breadfill categories. SMSCCI sales declined from 2008’s level. Operating income, however, improved versus same period in 2008 due to managed fixed cost spending. 51 + GFS, the foodservice division of the Company, registered an operating income slightly better than 2008 due to improved revenues and lower operating costs. Total number of outlets served went up from 9,417 in 2008 to 9,456 in 2009. III. FINANCIAL POSITION 2010 vs 2009 The commendable operating performance of SMPFC is similarly reflected on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position as current ratio and debt to equity ratio registered at 1.57:1 and 1.14:1, respectively, in 2010 from 1.30:1 and 1.28:1, respectively, in 2009. Total equity increased from P17.6 billion to P22.2 billion while total asset base rose from P40.2 billion to P47.5 billion or a growth of 18%. Below were the major developments in 2010: INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES a) SMFI and Monterey i. In August 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the merger of Monterey into SMFI, with SMFI as the surviving corporation, following the approvals of the merger by the respective Board of Directors (BOD) and stockholders of Monterey and SMFI in June 2010 and July 2010, respectively. SMFI issued to Monterey’s stockholders one (1) SMFI share of stock for every two hundred sixty eight (268) Monterey shares of stock. No fractional shares resulting from the merger were issued by SMFI. The merger became effective September 1, 2010. SMFI’s request for confirmation of the tax-free merger, filed in September 2010, is still pending with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) as at March 9, 2011. ii. In July 2010, the SEC approved the application of Monterey for the increase in its authorized capital stock. Following SEC’s approval, 22,500,000 Monterey shares of stock were issued to SMPFC in exchange for the Company’s deposit for future stock subscription of P450.0 million in 2008. iii. In January 2008, SMFI executed a Deed of Assignment assigning its 16,457,310 shares in SMMI, then a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMFI, to SMPFC effective December 28, 2007. The assignment is in accordance with SMFI’s property dividend declaration of its SMMI shares in favor of the Company, as approved by SMFI’s BOD in June 2007, subject to the necessary regulatory approvals. In December 2010, the SEC approved the declaration of SMFI’s 16,457,310 shares in SMMI as property dividend in favor of the Company. b) SMPFIL In July 2010, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SMPFIL, acquired SMC’s 51% interest (through SMFBIL) in SMPFI Limited for US$18.6 million. SMPFI Limited owns 100% of SMPFVN. Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement between SMFBIL and SMPFIL, 10% of the purchase price was paid in July 2010 and the balance of US$16.8 million (P734.3 million as at December 31, 2010) shall be payable (i) upon change in controlling interest of SMPFIL to any third person other than an affiliate or (ii) two years 52 + from July 30, 2010, subject to floating interest rate based on one-year LIBOR plus an agreed margin after one year, whichever comes first. The balance was recognized as part of the Company’s payable to related parties in 2010. As discussed in Note 19 of the 2010 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, the proceeds of SMPFC’s preferred shares offering is intended to pay off, among others, the SMPFVN acquisition, through SMPFIL. The preferred shares offering took place in February 2011. INTANGIBLE ASSETS In July 2010, SMC and SMPFC entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Transfer Agreement (Agreement) for the transfer to SMPFC of SMC’s food-related brands and intellectual property rights at a purchase price of P3,200.0 million. Pursuant to the Agreement, 10% of the purchase price was paid in July 2010 and the balance shall be payable (i) upon change in controlling interest of SMPFC to any third person other than an affiliate or (ii) two years from July 30, 2010, subject to floating interest rate based on one-year PDSTF plus an agreed margin after one year, whichever comes first. The balance was recognized as part of the Company’s payable to related parties as at December 31, 2010. As discussed in Note 35 of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, the remaining balance was subsequently settled by SMPFC on March 8, 2011. LONG-TERM DEBT In December 2010, SMFI offered for sale and subscription to the public Philippine peso-denominated fixed rate and floating rate notes with principal amount of P800.0 million and P3,700.0 million, respectively. Both types of notes have a term of five years and one day beginning on December 10, 2010 (Issue Date) and ending on December 11, 2015. The fixed rate note has a fixed interest rate of 5.4885% per annum while the floating rate note has a floating interest rate based on three-month PDST-F plus an agreed margin. Proceeds from the issuance of the notes will be used to fund any expansion or any investment in new businesses by SMFI and for other general corporate purposes. EQUITY On February 2, 2010 and March 12, 2010, the Company’s BOD and stockholders, respectively, approved the (i) de-classification of SMPFC’s common shares and increase in SMPFC’s authorized capital stock by P1,000.0 million or 100,000,000 shares at P10.00 par value, and (ii) declaration of 18% stock dividend based on the issued and outstanding shares to be taken out of the proposed increase in authorized capital stock. On April 12, 2010, the SEC approved SMPFC’s amendment to its Articles of Incorporation for the de-classification of common shares. On May 21, 2010, the SEC issued to SMPFC the Certificate for the Approval of Increase of Capital Stock from 146,000,000 common shares to 246,000,000 common shares with par value of P10.00 per share and the Certificate of Filing of Amended Articles of Incorporation. On July 6, 2010, the PSE approved the application of SMPFC to list additional 25,423,746 common shares, with a par value of P10.00 per share, to cover the 18% stock dividend declaration to stockholders of record as at June 30, 2010. Stock dividend distribution was made on July 26, 2010. On September 15, 2010, Company’s BOD approved, among others, the (i) reclassification of up to 75,000,000 authorized and unissued common shares into cumulative, non- 53 + participating, non-voting and non-convertible preferred shares with par value of P10.00 per share, (ii) issuance of preferred shares with total issue size of up to P50,000.0 million, part of the proceeds of which will be used to settle the Company’s remaining 90% balance relating to the brands and SMPFVN acquisitions from SMC, (iii) listing of such preferred shares at the appropriate exchanges, and (iv) amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to reflect the reclassification of such common shares to preferred shares and the denial of pre-emptive rights of shareholders for the proposed issuance of said preferred shares. On November 3, 2010, the Company’s stockholders approved, among others, the (i) reclassification of the Company’s 40,000,000 authorized and unissued common shares into nonvoting, cumulative and non-participating preferred shares with par value of P10.00 per share, (ii) issuance of such preferred shares and the listing thereof at the appropriate exchanges, and (iii) amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to reflect the reclassification of 40,000,000 common shares to preferred shares and the denial of pre-emptive rights of shareholders for the proposed issuance of said preferred shares (Amendment). On December 23, 2010, the SEC approved the foregoing Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Analysis of Financial Position Accounts The issuance by SMFI of fixed and floating rate corporate notes in December 2010 resulted in the recognition of long-term debt - net of debt issue costs and the increase in cash and cash equivalents by 78% as proceeds were temporarily invested in short-term placements by year-end. Trade and other receivables - net declined by 14% due to effective management of receivables and the collection by a subsidiary of insurance claims on damages caused by a typhoon. Current biological assets grew by 29% on account of the increase in volume of growing stock in anticipation of the Christmas season and the acquisition of SMPFVN. Derivative assets grew mainly due to higher number of wheat options outstanding by year-end and favorable market prices. The 42% surge in prepaid expenses and other current assets is largely due to the increase in the level of creditable input tax brought about by the Company’s acquisition of food-related brands and intellectual property rights from SMC and withholding taxes for application against tax liabilities. Investment properties - net went up by 5% on account of additional properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings during the year. Property, plant and equipment - net, noncurrent biological assets - net and goodwill - net grew versus same period last year mainly due to the inclusion of SMPFVN in the consolidation. The substantial increase in intangible assets - net is mainly attributed to the purchase of food-related brands and intellectual property rights from SMC. Deferred tax assets and income tax payable decreased by 51% and 65%, respectively, mainly on account of the reversal of certain deferred tax provisions during the year and the utilization of deferred tax benefits from a subsidiary’s net operating loss carry-over (NOLCO). 54 + Other noncurrent assets declined by 6% due to a subsidiary’s recognition of impairment loss on certain machinery and equipment considered as idle assets. Healthy operating cash flows of most subsidiaries enabled the Group to partially settle their shortterm borrowings, thus, the decrease in notes payable by 41%. Trade payables and other current liabilities registered a 20% increase primarily on account of the 90% remaining liability of SMPFC to SMC relating to the acquisition of the latter’s food-related brands and intellectual property rights, and SMPFVN. The 32% drop in deferred tax liabilities resulted from a subsidiary’s reversal of unrealized gains brought about by the settlement of matured prior and current year’s wheat options. Other noncurrent liabilities decreased by 52% due to payment of retirement plan contributions. The 17% increase in capital stock resulted from SMPFC’s stock dividend payout in July 2010. The 92% increment in cumulative translation adjustments is primarily due to foreign currency translation difference following the inclusion of SMPFVN in the consolidation. Changes in retained earnings and non-controlling interests are primarily on account of the income earned in 2010, net of dividends declared during the year. 2009 vs 2008 SMPFC’s remarkable operating performance in 2009 resulted in improved overall financial position, as current ratio and debt to equity ratio registered at 1.30:1 and 1.28:1, respectively, from 1.20 and 1.47, respectively, in 2008. Total equity increased from P15.0 billion to P17.6 billion while total asset base rose from P37.0 billion to P40.2 billion or a growth of 9%. Below were the major developments in 2009: INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES In April 2009, Monterey, a majority-owned subsidiary of SMPFC, acquired the subscription rights of certain individuals in Highbreed Livestock Corporation (HLC), a Philippine company engaged in livestock farming, processing, selling meat products (mainly pork and beef) and leasing of properties. As such, HLC became a subsidiary of Monterey and was consolidated into SMPFC through Monterey. On June 22, 2009, the respective BOD and stockholders of Monterey and HLC approved the merger of HLC into Monterey, with Monterey as the surviving corporation. The consideration of the assignment of the subscription, net of the effect of the merger, amounted to P6.25 million. The SEC approved the merger on October 22, 2009. The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) confirmed the tax-free merger of HLC into Monterey in its Certification No. S40-052-2009 dated December 18, 2009. RELATED PARTY On May 1, 2009, the transfer of the receivables, inventories and fixed assets of SMC’s CKAG to SMFI was completed, for a total consideration of P2,352.5 million. CKAG was a unit of SMC engaged in the business of selling and distributing various products of some companies within the SMC Group, including SMPFC’s subsidiaries, to modern trade customers. 55 + Analysis of Financial Position Accounts Cash and cash equivalents grew by 42% compared to 2008 level mainly due to higher cash sales during December and the integration of SMC’s CKAG unit into the Group. The 16% increase in trade and other receivables - net was mainly due to integration of SMC’s CKAG unit and the insurance claims booked by a subsidiary to cover damages caused by a typhoon. Current biological assets declined by 14% due to lower volume of growing hogs and poultry livestock. The 32% increase in derivative assets is primarily attributed to the higher value of outstanding purchase orders that are to be settled using third currencies and the favorable foreign exchange rate at valuation date. Prepaid expenses and other current assets rose by 53% due to the increase in the level of creditable input and withholding taxes for application against future tax liabilities. The integration of CKAG into the Group also contributed to the increase. Investment properties - net went up by 51% due to additional foreclosed properties in 2009. The 15% surge in noncurrent biological assets - net was due to the increase in the volume of Monterey and SMFI Poultry’s breeding stocks coupled with higher growing costs. The increase in deferred tax assets by 11% was largely due to the recognition of tax asset on future benefit from the tax loss position of a subsidiary in 2009. Retirement and other noncurrent assets increased by 66% due to a subsidiary’s reclassification of certain machinery and equipment considered as idle assets from property, plant and equipment to other noncurrent assets following the change in management’s intention on its branded business. Better operating cash flows of most subsidiaries enabled the Group to partially settle their short- term borrowings, thus, the decrease in notes payable by 24%. Trade payables and other current liabilities registered a 29% increase primarily due to the integration of SMC’s CKAG unit into the Group and the acquisition by Monterey of HLC. Income tax payable was significantly higher versus 2008 level mainly on account of the Group’s positive performance resulting in additional income tax. Deferred tax liabilities increased by 67% due to the effect of the recognition of tax liability on unrealized gains on certain derivative financial instruments. Retirement liability went up by 134% due to the recognition of higher provision for pension costs for 2009. The 31% drop in cumulative translation adjustments is primarily due to the appreciation of Indonesia’s rupiah against the Philippine peso. The change in retained earnings is primarily on account of the income earned in 2009. 56 + IV.

(e) Incorporated in November 2010 and has not yet started commercial operations. A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefit from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or convertible are taken into account. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date when the Group obtains control and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. Intergroup balances and transactions, including intergroup unrealized profits and losses, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets not held by the Group and are presented in the consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income and within equity in the consolidated statements of financial position, separately from the Group’s equity attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company. Non-controlling interests represent the interests not held by the Group in SMFI, PTSMPFI, SMSCCI, PF-Hormel and SMPFI Limited (Note 11) in 2010 and in Monterey, PTSMPFI, SMSCCI and PF-Hormel in 2009. -2- 3. Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Group to all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements, except for the changes in accounting policies as explained below. Adoption of New or Revised Standards, Amendments to Standards and Interpretations The FRSC approved the adoption of a number of new or revised standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations [based on IFRIC Interpretations] as part of PFRS. Accordingly, the Group changed its accounting policies in the following areas: Adopted Effective 2010 The Group has adopted the following PFRS starting January 1, 2010 and accordingly, changed its accounting policies to conform with these PFRS: Revised PFRS 3, Business Combinations (2008), effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009, incorporates the following changes that are likely to be relevant to the Group’s operations: - The definition of a business has been broadened, which is likely to result in more acquisitions being treated as business combinations. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value, with subsequent changes therein recognized in profit or loss. Transaction costs, other than share and debt issue costs, are expensed as incurred. Any pre-existing interest in the acquiree is measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. Any non-controlling interest is measured at either fair value, or at its proportionate interest in the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree, on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The Group applied Revised PFRS 3 (2008) in the acquisition of SMPFI Limited, through SMPFIL (Note 11). Revised PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (2008), effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009, requires accounting for changes in ownership interests by the Company in a subsidiary, while maintaining control, to be recognized as an equity transaction. When the Company loses control of a subsidiary, any interest retained in the former subsidiary will be measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. Amendments to PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement Eligible Hedged Items, provide for the following: a) new application guidance to clarify the existing principles that determine whether specific risks or portions of cash flows are eligible for designation in a hedge relationship; and b) additional application guidance on qualifying items; assessing hedge effectiveness; and designation of financial items as hedged items. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 17, Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners, provides guidance on the accounting for non-reciprocal distributions of non-cash assets to owners acting in their capacity as owners. It also applies to distributions in which the owners may elect to receive either the non-cash asset or a cash alternative. The liability for the dividend payable is measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed. The interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. -3- Improvements to PFRSs 2008 - Amendments to PFRS 5, Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, specify that if an entity is committed to a plan to sell a subsidiary, then it would classify all of that subsidiary’s assets and liabilities as held for sale when the held for sale criteria in paragraphs 6 to 8 of PFRS 5 are met. This applies regardless of the entity retaining an interest (other than control) in the subsidiary. Disclosures for discontinued operations are required by the parent when a subsidiary meets the definition of a discontinued operation. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2009. Amendments to PFRS 2, Share-based Payment: Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions, clarify the scope of PFRS 2, that an entity that receives goods or services in a share-based payment arrangement must account for those goods or services no matter which entity in the group settles the transaction, and regardless of whether the transaction is equity-settled or cash-settled; and the interaction of PFRS 2 and other standards, that in PFRS 2, a “group” has the same meaning as in PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, that is, it includes only a parent and its subsidiaries. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010. Improvements to PFRSs 2009, contain 15 amendments to 12 standards. The improvements are generally effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010. The following are the said improvements or amendments to PFRS: - PFRS 2, Share-based Payment: Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions and PFRS 3, Business Combinations (2008). The amendments clarify that business combinations as defined in PFRS 3 (2008) are outside the scope of PFRS 2, notwithstanding that they may be outside the scope of PFRS 3 (2008). Therefore business combinations among entities under common control and the contribution of a business upon the formation of a joint venture will not be accounted for under PFRS 2. - PAS 38, Intangible Assets. The amendments clarify that: (i) an intangible asset that is separable only together with a related contract, identifiable asset or liability is recognized separately from goodwill together with the related item; and (ii) complementary intangible assets with similar useful lives may be recognized as a single asset. The amendments also describe valuation techniques commonly used by entities when measuring the fair value of intangible assets acquired in a business combination for which no active market exists. - Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 9, Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) amended the scope of IFRIC 9 so that embedded derivatives in contracts acquired in business combinations as defined in PFRS 3 (2008), joint venture formations and common control transactions remain outside the scope of IFRIC 9. - Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 16, Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation. The amendments remove the restriction that prevented a hedging instrument from being held by a foreign operation that itself is being hedged. - PFRS 5, Noncurrent Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The amendments clarify that the required disclosures for noncurrent assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale or discontinued operations are specified in PFRS 5. -4- - PFRS 8, Operating Segments. The amendments clarify that segment information with respect to total assets is required only if such information is regularly reported to the chief operating decision maker. - PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendments clarify that the classification of the liability component of a convertible instrument as current or noncurrent is not affected by terms that could, at the option of the holder of the instrument, result in settlement of the liability by the issue of equity instruments. . PAS 7, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments clarify that only expenditures that result in the recognition of an asset can be classified as a cash flow from investing activities. - - PAS 17, Leases. The IASB deleted guidance stating that a lease of land with an indefinite economic life normally is classified as an operating lease, unless at the end of the lease term title is expected to pass to the lessee. The amendments clarify that when a lease includes both the land and building elements, an entity should determine the classification of each element based on paragraphs 7 - 13 of PAS 17, taking account of the fact that land normally has an indefinite economic life. - PAS 36, Impairment of Assets. The amendments clarify that the largest unit to which goodwill should be allocated is the operating segment level as defined in PFRS 8 before applying the aggregation criteria of PFRS 8. - PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The amendments provide: (i) additional guidance on determining whether loan prepayment penalties result in an embedded derivative that needs to be separated; (ii) clarify that the scope exemption in PAS 39 paragraph 2(g) is restricted to forward contracts, i.e. not options, between an acquirer and a selling shareholder to buy or sell an acquiree that will result in a business combination at a future acquisition date within a reasonable period normally necessary to obtain any required approvals and to complete the transaction; and (iii) clarify that the gains or losses on a cash flow hedge should be reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss during the period that the hedged forecast cash flows impact profit or loss. The adoption of these foregoing new or revised standards, amendments to standards and interpretations did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Additional disclosures required by the revised standards and improvements were included in the consolidated financial statements, where applicable. New or Revised Standards, Amendments to Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted A number of new or revised standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2010, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group, except for PFRS 9, Financial Instruments, which becomes mandatory for the Group’s 2013 consolidated financial statements and could change the classification and measurement of financial assets. The Group does not plan to adopt this standard early and the extent of the impact has not been determined. -5- The Group will adopt the following new or revised standards, amendments to standards and interpretations in the respective effective dates: Amendment to PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation - Classification of Rights Issues, permits rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency to be classified as equity instruments provided the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. The amendment is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after February 1, 2010. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments, addresses issues in respect of the accounting by the debtor in a debt for equity swap transaction. It clarifies that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish all or part of a financial liability in a debt for equity swap are consideration paid in accordance with PAS 39 paragraph 41. The interpretation is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010. Revised PAS 24, Related Party Disclosures (2009), amends the definition of a related party and modifies certain related party disclosure requirements for government-related entities. The revised standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement (Amendments to Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 14: PAS 19 - The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction). These amendments remove unintended consequences arising from the treatment of prepayments where there is a minimum funding requirement and result in prepayments of contributions in certain circumstances being recognized as an asset rather than an expense. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Improvements to PFRSs 2010 contain 11 amendments to 6 standards and 1 interpretation, of which only the following are applicable to the Group. - PFRS 3, Business Combinations (2008). The amendments: (i) clarify that contingent consideration arising in a business combination previously accounted for in accordance with PFRS 3 (2004) that remains outstanding at the adoption date of PFRS 3 (2008) continues to be accounted for in accordance with PFRS 3 (2004); (ii) limit the accounting policy choice to measure non-controlling interests upon initial recognition at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets to instruments that give rise to a present ownership interest and that currently entitle the holder to a share of net assets in the event of liquidation; and (iii) expand the current guidance on the attribution of the market-based measure of an acquirer’s share-based payment awards issued in exchange for acquiree awards between consideration transferred and post-combination compensation cost when an acquirer is obliged to replace the acquiree’s existing awards to encompass voluntarily replaced unexpired acquiree awards. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010. Early application is permitted and is required to be disclosed. -6- - PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The amendments clarify that the consequential amendments to PAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, PAS 28, Investments in Associates and PAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures, resulting from PAS 27 (2008) should be applied prospectively, with the exception of amendments resulting from renumbering. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2010. Early application is permitted. - PFRS 1, First -time Adoption of PFRS. The amendments: (i) clarify that PAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, is not applicable to changes in accounting policies occurring during the period covered by an entity’s first PFRS financial statements; (ii) introduce guidance for entities that publish interim financial information under PAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting and change either their accounting policies or use of the PFRS 1 exemptions during the period covered by their first PFRS financial statements; (iii) extend the scope of paragraph D8 of PFRS 1 so that an entity is permitted to use an event-driven fair value measurement as deemed cost for some or all of its assets when such revaluation occurred during the reporting periods covered by its first PFRS financial statements; and (iv) introduce an additional optional deemed cost exemption for entities to use the carrying amounts under previous GAAP as deemed cost at the date of transition to PFRS for items of property, plant and equipment or intangible assets used in certain rate-regulated activities. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Early application is permitted and is required to be disclosed. - PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The amendments add an explicit statement that qualitative disclosure should be made in the context of the quantitative disclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure to risks arising from financial instruments. In addition, the IASB amended and removed existing disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Early application is permitted and is required to be disclosed. - PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendments clarify that disaggregation of changes in each component of equity arising from transactions recognized in other comprehensive income is also required to be presented either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Early application is permitted. - PAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The amendments add examples to the list of events or transactions that require disclosure under PAS 34 and remove references to materiality in PAS 34 that describes other minimum disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Early application is permitted and is required to be disclosed. - Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes. The amendments clarify that the fair value of award credits takes into account the amount of discounts or incentives that otherwise would be offered to customers that have not earned the award credits. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Early application is permitted and is required to be disclosed. None of the above amendments is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. -7- Disclosures - Transfers of Financial Assets (Amendments to PFRS 7), require additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets. The amendments require disclosure of information that enables users of financial statements to understand the relationship between transferred financial assets that are not derecognized in their entirety and the associated liabilities; and to evaluate the nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s continuing involvement in derecognized financial assets. Entities are required to apply the amendments for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011. PFRS 9, Financial Instruments (2009) was issued as the first phase of the PAS 39 replacement project. The chapters of the standard released in 2009 only related to the classification and measurement of financial assets. PFRS 9 (2009) retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model and establishes two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The basis of classification depends on the entity’s business model and contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. In October 2010, a new version of PFRS 9 Financial Instruments (2010) was issued which now includes all the requirements of PFRS 9 (2009) without amendment. The new version of PFRS 9 also incorporates requirements with respect to the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and the derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The guidance in PAS 39 on impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting continues to apply. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. PFRS 9 (2010) supersedes PFRS 9 (2009). However, for annual periods beginning before January 1, 2013, an entity may elect to apply PFRS 9 (2009) rather than PFRS 9 (2010). None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group, except for PFRS 9, Financial Instruments, which will be mandatory for the Group’s 2013 consolidated financial statements and could change the classification and measurement of financial assets. The Group will assess the impact of the new or revised standards, amendments to standards and interpretations on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption on their respective effective dates. Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Date of Recognition. The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability in the consolidated statements of financial position when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. In the case of a regular way purchase or sale of financial assets, recognition is done using settlement date accounting. Initial Recognition of Financial Instruments. Financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value of the consideration given (in case of an asset) or received (in case of a liability). The initial measurement of financial instruments, except for those designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), includes transaction costs. The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: held-to-maturity (HTM) investments, AFS financial assets, financial assets at FVPL, and loans and receivables. The Group classifies its financial liabilities as either financial liabilities at FVPL or other liabilities. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments are acquired and whether they are quoted in an active market. Management determines the classification of its financial assets and financial liabilities at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates such designation at every reporting date. -8- Determination of Fair Value. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets at the reporting date is based on their quoted market price or dealer price quotations (bid price for long positions and ask price for short positions), without any deduction for transaction costs. When current bid and ask prices are not available, the price of the most recent transaction provides evidence of the current fair value as long as there is no significant change in economic circumstances since the time of the transaction. For all other financial instruments not listed in an active market, the fair value is determined by using appropriate valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include the discounted cash flow method, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist, options pricing models, and other relevant valuation models. ‘Day 1’ Profit. Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different from the fair value of the other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from observable market, the Group recognizes the difference between the transaction price and fair value (a ‘Day 1’ profit) in profit or loss unless it qualifies for recognition as some other type of asset. In cases where use is made of data which are not observable, the difference between the transaction price and model value is only recognized in the consolidated statements of income when the inputs become observable or when the instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, the Group determines the appropriate method of recognizing the ‘Day 1’ profit amount. Financial Assets Financial Assets at FVPL. A financial asset is classified at FVPL if it is classified as held for trading or is designated as such upon initial recognition. Financial assets are designated at FVPL if the Group manages such investments and makes purchase and sale decisions based on their fair value in accordance with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy. Derivative instruments (including embedded derivatives), except those covered by hedge accounting relationships, are classified under this category. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Financial assets may be designated by management at initial recognition as at FVPL or reclassified under this category through the fair value option, when any of the following criteria is met: the designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or recognizing gains or losses on a different basis; the assets are part of a group of financial assets which are managed and their performances are evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy; or the financial instrument contains an embedded derivative, unless the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows or it is clear, with little or no analysis, that it would not be separately recognized. -9- The Group carries financial assets at FVPL using their fair values. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Fair value changes and realized gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss. Fair value changes from derivatives accounted for as part of an effective accounting hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under the “Cumulative translation adjustments (CTA) - Hedging reserve” account in equity. Any interest earned shall be recognized as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income. Any dividend income from equity securities classified as FVPL shall be recognized in profit or loss when the right to receive payment has been established. The Group’s derivative assets are classified under this category. The carrying amounts of derivative assets amounted to P107.6 million and P47.1 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 32). Loans and Receivables. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and maturities that are not quoted in an active market. They are not entered into with the intention of immediate or short-term resale and are not designated as AFS financial assets or financial assets at FVPL. Subsequent to initial measurement, loans and receivables are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment in value. Any interest earned on loans and receivables shall be recognized as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income on an accrual basis. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees that are integral part of the effective interest rate. The periodic amortization is also included as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income. Gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss when loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. Cash includes cash on hand and in banks which are stated at face value. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables are included in this category (Notes 6 and 7). The combined carrying amounts of financial assets under this category amounted to P14,801.6 million and P12,974.3 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 32). HTM Investments. HTM investments are quoted non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities for which the Group’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Where the Group sells other than an insignificant amount of HTM investments, the entire category would be tainted and reclassified as AFS financial assets. After initial measurement, these investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment in value. Any interest earned on the HTM investments shall be recognized as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income on an accrual basis. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees that are integral part of the effective interest rate. The periodic amortization is also included as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income. Gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss when the HTM investments are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. - 10 - As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no investments accounted for under this category. AFS Financial Assets. AFS financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated in this category or are not classified in any of the other financial asset categories. Subsequent to initial recognition, AFS financial assets are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign currency differences on AFS debt instruments, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the “CTA - Fair value reserve” in equity. The effective yield component of AFS debt securities is reported as part of “Interest income” in the consolidated statements of income. Dividends earned on holding AFS equity securities are recognized as “Dividend income” when the right to receive payment has been established. When individual AFS financial assets are either derecognized or impaired, the related accumulated unrealized gains or losses previously reported in equity are transferred to and recognized in profit or loss. AFS financial assets also include unquoted equity instruments with fair values which cannot be reliably determined. These instruments are carried at cost less impairment in value, if any. The Group’s investments in shares of stock included under “Other noncurrent assets” are classified under this category. The carrying amounts of financial assets under this category amounted to P11.2 million and P13.8 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 32). Financial Liabilities Financial Liabilities at FVPL. Financial liabilities are classified under this category through the fair value option. Derivative instruments (including embedded derivatives) with negative fair values, except those covered by hedge accounting relationships, are also classified under this category. The Group carries financial liabilities at FVPL using their fair values and reports fair value changes in profit or loss. Fair value changes from derivatives accounted for as part of an effective accounting hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under the “CTA - Hedging reserve” account in equity. Any interest expense incurred shall be recognized as part of “Interest expense” in the consolidated statements of income. The Group’s derivative liabilities are classified under this category (Note 17). The carrying amounts of financial liabilities under this category amounted to P3.1 million and P13.4 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 32). Other Financial Liabilities. This category pertains to financial liabilities that are not designated or classified as at FVPL. After initial measurement, other financial liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any premium or discount and any directly attributable transaction costs that are considered an integral part of the effective interest rate of the liability. Included in this category are the Group’s liabilities arising from its trade or borrowings such as notes payable, trade payables and other current liabilities, long-term debt and other noncurrent liabilities (Notes 16, 17, 18 and 32). - 11 - The combined carrying amounts of financial liabilities under this category amounted to P24,779.1 million and P21,469.8 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 32). Debt Issue Costs Debt issue costs are considered as an adjustment to the effective yield of the related debt and are deferred and amortized using the effective interest rate method. When a loan is paid, the related unamortized debt issue costs at the date of repayment are charged against current operations. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Freestanding Derivatives For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as either: a) fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (except for foreign currency risk); b) cash flow hedges when hedging exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk in an unrecognized firm commitment; or c) hedges of a net investment in foreign operations. At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated. Fair Value Hedge. Derivatives classified as fair value hedges are carried at fair value with corresponding change in fair value recognized in profit or loss. The carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability is also adjusted for changes in fair value attributable to the hedged item and the gain or loss associated with that remeasurement is also recognized in profit or loss. When the hedge ceases to be highly effective, hedge accounting is discontinued and the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged financial instrument is amortized immediately. The Group discontinues fair value hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires, is sold, terminated or exercised, the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the Group revokes the designation. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no outstanding derivatives accounted for as fair value hedges. Cash Flow Hedge. Changes in the fair value of a hedging instrument that qualifies as a highly effective cash flow hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under the “CTA - Hedging reserve” account in equity. The ineffective portion is immediately recognized in profit or loss. - 12 - If the hedged cash flow results in the recognition of an asset or a liability, all gains or losses previously recognized directly in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost or carrying amount of the asset or liability. Otherwise, for all other cash flow hedges, gains or losses initially recognized in equity are transferred from equity to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecasted transaction or recognized asset or liability affect profit or loss. When the hedge ceases to be highly effective, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been reported directly in equity is retained in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. When the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, any net cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognized in profit or loss. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no outstanding derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges. Net Investment Hedge. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. For derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting, any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss during the year incurred. Embedded Derivatives The Group assesses whether embedded derivatives are required to be separated from host contracts when the Group becomes a party to the contract. An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if all of the following conditions are met: a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract; b) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and c) the hybrid or combined instrument is not recognized at FVPL. Reassessment only occurs if there is a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required. Derecognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Financial Assets. A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when: the rights to receive cash flows from the asset expired; the Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; or the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either: (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset; or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset. When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay. - 13 - Financial Liabilities. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in profit or loss. Impairment of Financial Assets The Group assesses at reporting date whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred loss event) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Assets Carried at Amortized Cost. For assets carried at amortized cost such as loans and receivables, the Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If no objective evidence of impairment has been identified for a particular financial asset that was individually assessed, the Group includes the asset as part of a group of financial assets pooled according to their credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses the group for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognized are not included in the collective impairment assessment. Evidence of impairment for specific impairment purposes may include indications that the borrower or a group of borrowers is experiencing financial difficulty, default or delinquency in principal or interest payments, or may enter into bankruptcy or other form of financial reorganization intended to alleviate the financial condition of the borrower. For collective impairment purposes, evidence of impairment may include observable data on existing economic conditions or industry-wide developments indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows of the related assets. If there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount of loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). Time value is generally not considered when the effect of discounting the cash flows is not material. If a loan or receivable has a variable rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate, adjusted for the original credit risk premium. For collective impairment purposes, impairment loss is computed based on their respective default and historical loss experience. The carrying amount of the asset shall be reduced either directly or through use of an allowance account. The impairment loss for the period shall be recognized in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost at the reversal date. - 14 - AFS Financial Assets. If an AFS financial asset is impaired, an amount comprising the difference between the cost (net of any principal payment and amortization) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized in profit or loss, is transferred from equity to profit or loss. Reversals in respect of equity instruments classified as AFS financial assets are not recognized in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses on debt instruments are recognized in profit or loss, if the increase in fair value of the instrument can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss. In the case of an unquoted equity instrument or of a derivative asset linked to and must be settled by delivery of an unquoted equity instrument, for which its fair value cannot be reliably measured, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows from the asset discounted using its historical effective rate of return on the asset. Classification of Financial Instruments Between Debt and Equity From the perspective of the issuer, a financial instrument is classified as debt instrument if it provides for a contractual obligation to: deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity; exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavorable to the Group; or satisfy the obligation other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of own equity shares. If the Group does not have an unconditional right to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset to settle its contractual obligation, the obligation meets the definition of a financial liability. Offsetting Financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statements of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This is not generally the case with master netting agreements, and the related assets and liabilities are presented at gross in the consolidated statements of financial position. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs incurred in bringing each inventory to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows: Finished goods and goods in process - Raw materials, feeds, feed ingredients, factory supplies and others - at cost using the moving average method; includes direct materials and labor and a proportion of manufacturing overhead costs based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs; finished goods also include unrealized gain (loss) on fair valuation of agricultural produce; at cost using the moving average method - 15 - Net realizable value of finished goods and goods in process is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Net realizable value of raw materials, feeds, feed ingredients, factory supplies and others is the current replacement cost. Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce The Group’s biological assets include breeding, growing poultry livestock, hogs and cattle and goods in process which are grouped according to their physical state, transformation capacity (breeding, growing or laying), as well as their particular stage in the production process. Growing poultry livestock, hogs and cattle, and goods in process are carried at accumulated costs while breeding stocks are carried at accumulated costs net of amortization and any impairment in value. The costs and expenses incurred up to the start of the productive stage are accumulated and amortized over the estimated productive lives of the breeding stocks. The Group uses this method of valuation since fair value cannot be measured reliably. The Group’s biological assets have no active market and no active market for similar assets prior to point of harvest are available in the Philippine poultry and hog industries. Further, the existing sector benchmarks are determined to be irrelevant and the estimates (i.e., revenues due to highly volatile prices, input costs, efficiency values, production) necessary to compute for the present value of expected net cash flows comprise a wide range of data which will not result in a reliable basis for determining the fair value. The carrying amounts of the biological assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Group’s agricultural produce, which consists of grown broilers and marketable hogs and cattle harvested from the Group’s biological assets, are measured at their fair value less estimated costs to sell at the point of harvest. The fair value of grown broilers is based on the quoted prices for harvested mature grown broilers in the market at the time of harvest. For marketable hogs and cattle, the fair value is based on the quoted prices in the market at any given time. The Group in general, does not carry any inventory of agricultural produce at any given time as these are either sold as live broilers, hogs and cattle or transferred to the different poultry or meat processing plants and immediately transformed into processed or dressed chicken and carcass. Amortization is computed using straight-line method over the following estimated productive lives of breeding stocks: Number of Years 3 years or 6 births, whichever is shorter 2.5 - 3 years 2.5 - 3 years 40 - 44 weeks Hogs - sow Hogs - boar Cattle Poultry breeding stock - 16 - Business Combination Acquisitions on or after January 1, 2010 Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date through profit or loss. For acquisitions on or after January 1, 2010, the Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as: (a) the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus (b) the recognized amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus (c) if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; less (d) the net recognized amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Subsequently, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment in value. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognized in profit or loss. Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. Any contingent consideration payable is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognized in profit or loss. Goodwill in a Business Combination Goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities are assigned to those units or groups of units. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is so allocated: represents the lowest level within the Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes; and is not larger than an operating segment determined in accordance with PFRS 8, Operating Segments. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit or group of cash-generating units, to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit or group of cashgenerating units is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit or group of cash-generating units and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. An impairment loss with respect to goodwill is not reversed. - 17 - Intangible Assets Acquired in a Business Combination The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination at the date of acquisition is its fair value determined using discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the use of the assets. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed at least at each reporting date. Changes in the expected useful lives or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the assets are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives are recognized in profit or loss consistent with the function of the intangible asset. Loss of control Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognized in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained. Acquisitions Prior to January 1, 2010 In comparison to the above-mentioned requirements, the following differences applied: Business combinations were accounted for using the purchase method. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition formed part of the acquisition costs. The non-controlling interest was measured at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Business combinations achieved in stages were accounted for as separate steps. Any additional acquired share of interest did not affect previously recognized goodwill. Contingent consideration was recognized if, and only if, the Group had a present obligation, the economic outflow was more likely than not and a reliable estimate was determinable. Subsequent adjustments to the contingent consideration were recognized as part of goodwill. Transactions under Common Control Transactions under common control entered into in contemplation of each other, and business combination under common control designed to achieve an overall commercial effect are treated as a single transaction. Transfers of assets between commonly controlled entities are accounted for using the book value accounting. - 18 - Non-controlling Interests For acquisitions of non-controlling interests on or after January 1, 2010, the acquisitions are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners and therefore no goodwill is recognized as a result of such transactions. Any difference between the purchase price and the net assets of acquired entity is recognized in equity. The adjustments to non-controlling interests are based on a proportionate amount of the net assets of the subsidiary. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment, except land, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment in value. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the property, plant and equipment at the time that cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met, and excludes the costs of day-to-day servicing. Land is stated at cost less any impairment in value. The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its construction cost or purchase price, including import duties, taxes and any directly attributable costs in bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Cost also includes any related asset retirement obligation and interest incurred during the construction period on funds borrowed to finance the construction of the projects. Expenditures incurred after the asset has been put into operation, such as repairs, maintenance and overhaul costs, are normally recognized as expense in the period the costs are incurred. Major repairs are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the items will flow to the Group and the cost of the items can be measured reliably. Construction in progress represents structures under construction and is stated at cost. This includes the costs of construction and other direct costs. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the construction of plant and equipment are capitalized during the construction period. Construction in progress is not depreciated until such time that the relevant assets are ready for use. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets: Land improvements Buildings and improvements Machinery and equipment Office furniture and equipment Transportation equipment Factory furniture, equipment and others Number of Years 5 - 10 5 - 50 5 - 20 3 - 50 5 3 - 50 The remaining useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, periodically to ensure that such periods and method of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from the items of property, plant and equipment. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the accounts until they are no longer in use and no further depreciation is credited or charged to current operations. - 19 - An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized when either it has been disposed of or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on the retirement and disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period of retirement or disposal. Investment Properties Investment properties consist of properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties, except for land, are measured at cost, including transaction costs, less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment in value. The carrying amount includes the cost of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time the cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met, and excludes the costs of day-to-day servicing of an investment property. Land is stated at cost less any impairment in value. Depreciation of buildings and improvements is computed using the straight-line method over 20 to 40 years. The residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation of the assets are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. Investment property is derecognized either when it has been disposed of or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains and losses on the retirement and disposal of investment property are recognized in profit or loss in the period of retirement or disposal. Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by ending of owner’s occupation or commencement of an operating lease to another party. Transfers are made from investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by commencement of the owner’s occupation or commencement of development with a view to sale. For a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property or inventories, the cost of property for subsequent accounting is its carrying amount at the date of change in use. If the property occupied by the Group as an owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use. Intangible Assets Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Subsequently, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is recognized in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method used for intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed at least at each reporting date. Changes in the expected useful lives or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the assets are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in profit or loss consistent with the function of the intangible asset. - 20 - Amortization of computer software and licenses is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 2 to 8 years. The Group assessed the useful life of the trademarks and brand names to be indefinite because based on an analysis of all the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate cash inflows for the Group. Trademarks, brand names, and formulas and recipes with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. Such intangibles are not amortized. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis. Gains or losses arising from disposal of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized. Impairment of Non-financial Assets The carrying amounts of investments and advances, property, plant and equipment, investment properties, biological assets, other intangible assets with finite useful lives and idle assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, and if the carrying amount exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of the asset is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The fair value less costs to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less costs of disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in profit or loss in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset. An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss. After such a reversal, the depreciation and amortization charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Group has: (a) a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; (b) it is probable ( i.e., more likely than not) that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and (c) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessment of - 21 - the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense. Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the receipt of the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Share Capital Common Shares Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Preferred Shares Preferred shares are classified as equity if they are non-redeemable, or redeemable only at the Company’s option, and any dividends thereon are discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognized as distributions within equity upon approval by the Company’s BOD. Preferred shares are classified as a liability if they are redeemable on a specific date or at the option of the shareholders, or if dividend payments are not discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognized as interest expense in profit or loss as accrued. Treasury Shares Own equity instruments which are reacquired are carried at cost and are deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognized on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments. When the shares are retired, the capital stock account is reduced by its par value and the excess of cost over par value upon retirement is debited to additional paid-in capital to the extent of the specific or average additional paid-in capital when the shares were issued and to retained earnings for the remaining balance. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized: Sales. Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, which is normally upon delivery and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Agricultural Produce. Revenue from initial recognition of agricultural produce is measured at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the point of harvest. Fair value is based on the relevant market price at point of harvest. Interest. Revenue is recognized as the interest accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the asset. Dividend. Revenue is recognized when the Group’s right as a shareholder to receive the payment is established. Gain or Loss on Sale of Investments in Shares of Stock. Gain or loss is recognized if the Group disposes of its investment in a subsidiary. Gain or loss is computed as the difference between the proceeds of the disposed investment and its carrying amount, including the carrying amount of goodwill, if any. - 22 - Rent. Revenue from investment properties is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rent income is included as part of other income. Cost and Expense Recognition Costs and expenses are recognized upon receipt of goods, utilization of services or at the date they are incurred. Share-based Payment Transactions Under SMC’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), employees of the Group receive remuneration in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby the employees render services as consideration for equity instruments of SMC. Such transactions are handled centrally by SMC. Share-based payment transactions in which SMC grants option rights to its equity instruments directly to the Group’s employees are accounted for as equity-settled transactions. SMC charges the Group for the costs related to such transactions with its employees. The amount is charged to operations by the Group. The cost of ESPP is measured by reference to the market price at the time of the grant less subscription price. The cumulative expense recognized for share-based payment transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and SMC’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Where the terms of a share-based award are modified, as a minimum, an expense is recognized as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognized for any modification, which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognized for the award is recognized immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award. Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. Group as Lessee. Finance leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased property, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are reflected in profit or loss. Leased asset is depreciated over its estimated useful life. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term. Leases which do not transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Associated costs such as maintenance and insurance are expensed as incurred. - 23 - Group as Lessor. Leases where the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets are classified as operating leases. Rent income from operating leases is recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as rent income. Contingent rents are recognized as income in the period in which they are earned. Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs are capitalized if they are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset. Capitalization of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalized until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Research and Development Costs Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs incurred on an individual project are carried forward when their future recoverability can reasonably be regarded as assured. Any expenditure carried forward is amortized in line with the expected future sales from the related project. The carrying amount of development costs is reviewed for impairment annually when the related asset is not yet in use. Otherwise, this is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Retirement Costs The Company and majority of its subsidiaries have separate funded, noncontributory retirement plans, administered by the respective trustees, covering their respective permanent employees. Retirement costs are actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method. This method reflects service rendered by employees up to the date of valuation and incorporates assumptions concerning employees’ projected salaries. Retirement cost includes current service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of unrecognized past service costs, recognition of actuarial gains and losses, effect of asset limit and effect of any curtailments or settlements. Past service cost is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. If the benefits are already vested immediately following the introduction of, or changes to the plan, past service cost is recognized immediately as an expense. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses at the end of the previous reporting year exceed the greater of 10% of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These gains or losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan. The transitional liability as at January 1, 2005, the date of adoption of PAS 19, Employee Benefits, is recognized as an expense over five years from date of adoption. The defined benefit liability is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and actuarial gains and losses not recognized, reduced by past service costs not yet recognized and the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. If such aggregate is negative, the resulting asset is measured at the lower of such aggregate or the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of reductions in the future contributions to the plan. - 24 - If the asset is measured at the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service costs and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of reductions in the future contributions to the plan, net actuarial losses of the current period and past service costs of the current period are recognized immediately to the extent that they exceed any reduction in the present value of those economic benefits. If there is no change or an increase in the present value of the economic benefits, the entire net actuarial losses of the current period and past service costs of the current period are recognized immediately. Similarly, net actuarial gains of the current period after the deduction of past service costs of the current period exceeding any increase in the present value of the economic benefits stated above are recognized immediately if the asset is measured at the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service costs and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of reductions in the future contributions to the plan. If there is no change or a decrease in the present value of the economic benefits, the entire net actuarial gains of the current period after the deduction of past service costs of the current period are recognized immediately. Foreign Currency Foreign Currency Translations Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured in terms of historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognized in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the retranslation of AFS equity investments, a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation that is effective, or qualifying cash flow hedges, which are recognized in other comprehensive income. Foreign Operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to Philippine peso at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Philippine peso at exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve (CTA - translation reserve) in equity. However, if the operation is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests. When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests. - 25 - When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the “CTA - translation reserve” in equity. Taxes Current Tax. Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Deferred Tax. Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except: where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and with respect to taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward benefits of unused tax credits - Minimum Corporate Income Tax (MCIT) and unused tax losses - Net Operating Loss Carry Over (NOLCO), to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carryforward benefits of MCIT and NOLCO can be utilized, except: where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and with respect to deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. - 26 - Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. Value-added Tax (VAT). Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of VAT, except: where the tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of tax included. Related Parties Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. Transactions between related parties are on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions with non-related parties. Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) Basic and diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income for the period attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of issued and outstanding common shares during the period, with retroactive adjustment for any stock dividends declared. Operating Segments The Group’s operating segments are organized and managed separately according to the nature of the products and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets. Financial information on operating segments is presented in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements. The Chief Executive Officer (the chief operating decision maker) reviews management reports on a regular basis. The measurement policies the Group used for segment reporting under PFRS 8, Operating Segments are the same as those used in its consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes from prior periods in the measurement methods used to determine reported segment profit or loss. All inter-segment transfers are carried out at arm’s length prices. Segment revenues, expenses and performance include sales and purchases between operating segments. Such sales and purchases are eliminated in consolidation. Contingencies Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. They are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but are disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Events After the Reporting Date Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Group’s consolidated financial position at reporting date (adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when material. - 27 - 4. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with PFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements at the reporting date. However, uncertainty about these estimates and assumptions could result in outcome that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the affected asset or liability in the future. Judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Judgments In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimation, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements: Operating Leases. The Group has entered into various lease agreements as a lessee. The Group has determined that the lessor retains all significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are leased out under operating lease arrangements. Rent expense charged to operations amounted to P771.1 million, P669.1 million and P662.5 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively (Notes 21 and 22). Determining Fair Values of Financial Instruments. Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques that include the use of mathematical models. The Group uses judgments to select from variety of valuation models and make assumptions regarding considerations of liquidity and model inputs such as correlation and volatility for longer dated financial instruments. The input to these models is taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair value. Contingencies. The Group currently has several tax assessments and legal claims. The Group’s estimate of the probable costs for resolution of these assessments and claims has been developed in consultation with in-house as well as outside legal counsel handling the prosecution and defense of these matters and is based on an analysis of potential results. The Group currently does not believe that these tax assessments and legal claims will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position and consolidated financial performance. It is possible, however, that future financial performance could be materially affected by changes in the estimates or in the effectiveness of strategies relating to these proceedings. No accruals were made in relation to these proceedings (Note 34). Estimates The key estimates and assumptions used in the consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Allowance for Impairment Losses on Trade and Other Receivables. Provisions are made for specific and groups of accounts, where objective evidence of impairment exists. The Group evaluates these accounts on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of the accounts. These factors include, but are not limited to, the length of the Group’s relationship with the customers and counterparties, the customers’ current credit status - 28 - based on third party credit reports and known market forces, average age of accounts, collection experience, and historical loss experience. The amount and timing of recorded expenses for any period would differ if the Group made different judgments or utilized different methodologies. An increase in allowance for impairment losses would increase the recorded selling and administrative expenses and decrease current assets. The allowance for impairment losses amounted to P682.4 million and P633.9 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables amounted to P7,760.3 million and P9,024.0 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 7). Allowance for Inventory Losses. The Group provides an allowance for inventory losses whenever net realizable value becomes lower than cost due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price levels or other causes. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the most reliable evidence available at the time the estimates are made of the amount the inventories are expected to be realized. These estimates take into consideration fluctuations of price or cost directly relating to events occurring after the reporting date to the extent that such events confirm conditions existing at the reporting date. The allowance account is reviewed periodically to reflect the accurate valuation in the financial records. The allowance for inventory losses amounted to P188.0 million and P150.0 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The carrying amounts of inventories as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to P12,123.4 million and P11,804.1 million, respectively (Note 8). Fair Value of Agricultural Produce. The Group determines the fair value of its agricultural produce based on most recent market transaction price provided that there has been no significant change in economic circumstances between the date of transactions and reporting date. Costs to sell are estimated based on most recent transaction and are deducted from the fair value in order to measure the fair value of agricultural produce at the point of harvest. Unrealized gain on fair valuation of agricultural produce included in the cost of inventories as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to P40.7 million and P62.7 million, respectively (Note 8). Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The Group carries certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value, which requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments. The significant components of fair value measurement were determined using verifiable objective evidence (i.e., foreign exchange rates, interest rates, volatility rates). The amount of changes in fair value would differ if the Group utilized different valuation methodologies and assumptions. Any change in fair value of these financial assets and financial liabilities would affect profit or loss and equity. The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are presented in Note 32. Estimated Useful Lives of Investment Properties and Property, Plant and Equipment. The Group estimates the useful lives of investment properties and property, plant and equipment based on the period over which the assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives of investment properties and property, plant and equipment are reviewed periodically and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits on the use of the assets. - 29 - In addition, estimation of the useful lives of investment properties and property, plant and equipment is based on collective assessment of industry practice, internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. It is possible, however, that future financial performance could be materially affected by changes in estimates brought about by changes in factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of investment properties and property, plant and equipment would increase recorded cost of sales and selling and administrative expenses and decrease noncurrent assets. Accumulated depreciation and impairment losses of investment properties and property, plant and equipment amounted to P8,399.7 million and P7,683.4 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Investment properties and property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, amounted to P9,219.1 million and P8,402.7 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Notes 12 and 13). Fair Value of Investment Properties. The fair value of investment property presented for disclosure purposes is based on market values, being the estimated amount for which the property can be exchanged between a willing buyer and seller in an arm’s length transaction, or based on a most recent sale transaction of a similar property within the same vicinity where the investment property is located. In the absence of current prices in an active market, the valuations are prepared by considering the aggregate estimated future cash flows expected to be received from leasing out the property. A yield that reflects the specific risks inherent in the net cash flows is then applied to the net annual cash flows to arrive at the property valuation. Estimated fair values of investment properties amounted to P288.7 million and P280.9 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 12). Estimated Useful Lives of Intangible Assets. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed at the individual asset level as having either a finite or indefinite life. Intangible assets are regarded to have an indefinite useful life when, based on analysis of all of the relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. Intangible assets with finite useful life amounted to P69.6 million and P77.4 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 14). Impairment of Goodwill, Trademarks and Brand Names, and Formulas and Recipes with Indefinite Lives. The Group determines whether goodwill, trademarks and brand names, and formulas and recipes are impaired at least annually. This requires the estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated and the value in use of the trademarks and brand names, and formulas and recipes. Estimating value in use requires management to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and from the trademarks and brand names, and formulas and recipes and to choose a suitable discount rate to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amounts of goodwill as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to P416.3 million and P170.8 million, respectively (Note 15). The carrying amounts of trademarks and brand names, and formulas and recipes amounted to P3,355.9 million and P90.1 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 14). - 30 - Realizability of Deferred Tax Assets. The Group reviews its deferred tax assets at each reporting date and reduces the carrying amount to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. The Group’s assessment on the recognition of deferred tax assets on deductible temporary difference and carry forward benefits of MCIT and NOLCO is based on the projected taxable income in the following periods. Deferred tax assets amounted to P599.9 million and P1,219.7 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 26). Impairment of Non-financial Assets. PFRS requires that an impairment review be performed on investments and advances, property, plant and equipment, investment properties, biological assets, other intangible assets with definite useful lives and idle assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. For intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, impairment testing is performed on an annual basis. Determining the recoverable amount of assets requires the estimation of cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use and ultimate disposition of such assets. While it is believed that the assumptions used in the estimation of fair values reflected in the consolidated financial statements are appropriate and reasonable, significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the assessment of recoverable amounts and any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the financial performance. Accumulated impairment losses on property, plant and equipment and idle assets amounted to P59.0 million and P53.9 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The aggregate amount of noncurrent biological assets, investment properties, property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, and idle assets amounted to P14,658.3 million and P10,207.2 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Notes 9, 12, 13, 14 and 15). Present Value of Defined Benefit Obligation. The present value of the retirement obligations depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. These assumptions are described in Note 27 to the consolidated financial statements and include discount rate, expected return on plan assets and salary increase rate. Actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and therefore, generally affect the recognized expense and recorded obligation in such future periods. The assumption of the expected return on plan assets is determined on a uniform basis, taking into consideration the long-term historical returns, asset allocation and future estimates of long-term investment returns. The Group determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. It is the interest rate that should be used to determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows expected to be required to settle the retirement obligations. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Group considers the interest rates on government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid. The terms to maturity of these bonds should approximate the terms of the related retirement liability. Other key assumptions for retirement obligations are based in part on current market conditions. While it is believed that the Group’s assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in assumptions may materially affect the Group’s retirement obligations. - 31 - The Group has a net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gain amounting to P229.4 million and P119.5 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively (Note 27). Asset Retirement Obligation. Determining asset retirement obligation requires estimation of the cost of dismantling property and equipment and other costs of restoring the leased properties to their original condition. The Group determined that there are no significant asset retirement obligations as at December 31, 2010 and 2009. 5. Segment Information Operating Segments The reporting format of the Group’s operating segments is determined by the Group’s risks and rates of return which are affected predominantly by differences in the products and services produced. The operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of the products produced and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets. The Group has three reportable segments, namely, Agro-industrial, Value-added Meats and Milling. Management identified and grouped the operating units in its operating segments with the objective of transforming the Group into a more rationalized and focused organization. The structure aims to boost efficiencies across the Group and raise effectiveness in defining and meeting the needs of consumers in innovative ways. The Agro-industrial segment includes the integrated Feeds, Poultry and Basic Meats operations. These businesses are involved in feeds production and in poultry and livestock farming, processing and selling of poultry and meat products. The Value-added Meats segment is engaged in the processing and marketing of refrigerated and canned meat products. The Milling segment is into manufacturing and marketing of flour products, premixes, and flour-based products. The non-reportable operating segments of the Group include dairy-based products, breadfill, desserts, cooking oil, importation and marketing of coffee and coffee-related products, and foreign operations which include hog farming, feeds production and sale of fresh and processed meats by foreign subsidiaries. Segment Assets and Liabilities Segment assets include all operating assets used by a segment and consist principally of operating cash, receivables, inventories, biological assets and property, plant and equipment, net of allowances and impairment. Segment liabilities include all operating liabilities and consist principally of wages, taxes currently payable and accrued liabilities. Segment assets and liabilities do not include deferred income taxes. Inter-segment Transactions Segment revenues, expenses and performance include sales and purchases between operating segments. Transfer prices between operating segments are set on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties. Such transfers are eliminated in consolidation. Major Customer The Group does not have a single external customer, sales revenue generated from which amounted to 10% or more of the total revenues of the Group. - 32 - Operating Segments Financial information about reportable segments follows: 2010 Agro-Industrial 2009 2008 Value-Added Meats 2009 2008 2010 2010 Milling 2009 2008 Total Reportable Segments 2009 2008 2010 (In Millions) 2010 Others 2009 2008 2010 Eliminations 2009 2008 2010 Consolidated 2009 2008 Revenue External Inter-segment P52,300 258 P49,069 711 P44,981 379 P11,534 3 P11,234 47 P11,566 1 P7,155 505 P7,482 447 P8,199 485 P70,989 766 P67,785 P64,746 1,205 865 P8,281 169 P7,258 233 P6,330 370 P (935) P (1,438) P (1,235) P79,270 - P75,043 P71,076 - Total revenue P52,558 P49,780 P45,360 P11,537 P11,281 P11,567 P7,660 P7,929 P8,684 P71,755 P68,990 P65,611 P8,450 P7,491 P6,700 (P935) (P1,438) (P1,235) P79,270 P75,043 P71,076 P3,299 P3,085 P1,601 P772 P489 P626 P1,574 P752 (P36) P5,645 P310 P333 (P266) P55 (P118) (P1) P6,010 (188) 5 (142) 5 (1) 13 (88) 6 (113) 4 (315) 69 (704) 48 (747) 35 (44) 36 (47) 21 (84) 19 - 2 (1) (19) - (31) (8) 8 (2) (10) 3 - 83 (166) - Result Segment operating result* Interest expense and other financing charges Interest income Gain (loss) on sale of property and equipment Other income (charges) net Income tax benefit (expense) Net income Other Information Segment assets Goodwill Intangible assets Deferred tax assets (248) 51 20 (96) (896) (428) 37 4 2 (720) (492) 26 (66) 5 6 (50) 7 (86) 108 (93) (183) (525) (189) (74) (85) 2 (477) (220) P2,191 (8) (435) (24) 16 (89) (1,562) (1,014) (499) (89) (166) 20 P2,640 P553 P187 P147 (P397) P34,469 P32,428 289 156 - P13,228 1,612 3,266 - P10,053 1,367 - P4,760 1,367 - 14 111 P4,326 - (7) - (8) (33) (25) 8 P1,924 (831) 54 3 (8) (10) 10 (1,654) (1,184) (532) (469) (P129) (P7) P4,059 P2,658 P149 (P5,079) (1,196) (122) - (P5,904) (1,196) (122) - (P1,609) (1,196) - P43,076 416 3,426 600 P47,518 P40,176 P37,002 (P5,050) - (P5,820) - (P1,529) - P15,233 5,173 162 271 4,461 P12,849 8,816 467 399 - P25,300 P22,531 P22,041 P2,130 P1,980 P530 P580 P146 P223 P1,110 P514 (P200) P3,820 P23,017 10 - P21,588 4 - P18,493 3 - P7,786 272 - P9,376 285 - P9,277 153 - P4,124 - P3,505 - P4,658 - P34,927 282 - P6,796 - P9,075 - P6,746 - P1,868 - P1,339 - P1,535 - P1,011 - P785 - P845 - P9,675 - P11,199 - P9,126 - P10,608 - P7,470 - P2,331 - P312 P266 P259 P151 P210 P170 P13 P57 P87 P476 P533 P516 P105 P118 P78 P - P - P - P581 P651 P594 1,357 - 1,124 - 1,034 - 255 - 286 46 241 - 118 51 143 8 133 - 1,730 51 1,553 54 1,408 - 196 - 152 3 146 5 - - - 1,926 51 1,705 57 1,554 5 P52 Consolidated total liabilities Capital expenditures Depreciation and amortization Impairment losses (751) 69 (4) (3) Consolidated total assets Segment liabilities Notes payable Income tax payable Deferred tax liabilities Long-term debt P4,541 (359) 105 * Including realized mark-to-market gains (losses) on commodity derivatives presented as part of “Other Charges - Net” in the consolidated statements of income. - 33 - P38,618 P35,579 171 171 167 156 1,220 1,096 P9,928 11,666 209 238 - 6.

The movements in the allowance for impairment losses follow: 2010 P633,902 63,051 (14,508) P682,445 Balance at beginning of year Charge for the year Write off of amounts Reversal of unused amounts Balance at end of year - 34 - 2009 P610,887 113,762 (84,771) (5,976) P633,902 As at December 31, the aging of receivables are as follows: Gross Amount 2009 2010 P6,211,094 P5,197,755 1,227,642 1,058,538 100,653 228,923 545,023 104,826 1,742,547 1,683,570 P9,657,855 P8,442,716 Current Past due 1-30 days Past due 31-60 days Past due 61-90 days Past due over 90 days Various collaterals for trade receivables such as bank guarantees, time deposits and real estate mortgages are held by the Group for certain credit limits. The Group believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible, based on historic payment behavior and extensive analyses of the underlying customer credit ratings. There are no significant changes in their credit quality. 8. Inventories This account consists of: Finished goods and goods in process - at net realizable value Raw materials, feeds and feed ingredients - at net realizable value Factory supplies and others - at cost Materials in transit - at cost Total inventories at lower of cost and net realizable value 2010 2009 P3,425,034 P3,081,429 7,603,604 119,984 974,813 8,572,674 72,450 77,546 P12,123,435 P11,804,099 The cost of finished goods and goods in process amounted to P3,557.4 million and P3,168.3 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The cost of raw materials, feeds and feed ingredients amounted to P7,659.2 million and P8,635.8 million as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Investments and Advances Investments in Subsidiaries The following are the developments relating to the Company’s investments in subsidiaries in 2010 and 2009: a) SMFI and Monterey i. In August 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the merger of Monterey into SMFI, with SMFI as the surviving corporation, following the approvals of the merger by the respective BOD and stockholders of Monterey and SMFI in June 2010 and July 2010, respectively. The merger became effective September 1, 2010. SMFI’s request for confirmation of the taxfree merger, filed in September 2010, is still pending with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) as at March 9, 2011. ii. Prior to Monterey’s merger with SMFI, Monterey acquired in April 2009 the subscription rights of certain individuals in Highbreed Livestock Corporation (HLC), a Philippine company engaged in livestock farming, processing, selling meat products (mainly pork and beef) and leasing of properties. As such, HLC became a subsidiary of Monterey and was consolidated into SMPFC through Monterey. On June 22, 2009, the respective BOD and stockholders of Monterey and HLC approved the merger of HLC into Monterey, with Monterey as the surviving corporation. The consideration of the assignment of the subscription, net of the effect of the merger, amounted to P6.25 million. The SEC approved the merger on October 22, 2009. The BIR confirmed the tax-free merger of HLC into Monterey in its Certification No. S40-052-2009 dated December 18, 2009.

In January 2008, SMFI executed a Deed of Assignment assigning its 16,457,310 shares in SMMI, then a 100%-owned subsidiary of SMFI, to SMPFC effective December 28, 2007. The assignment is in accordance with SMFI’s property dividend declaration of its SMMI shares in favor of the Company, as approved by SMFI’s BOD in June 2007, subject to the necessary regulatory approvals. In December 2010, the SEC approved the declaration of SMFI’s 16,457,310 shares in SMMI as property dividend in favor of the Company. b) SMPFIL In July 2010, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SMPFIL, acquired SMC’s 51% interest (through San Miguel Foods and Beverage International Limited [SMFBIL]) in SMPFI Limited for US$18.6 million. SMPFI Limited owns 100% of SMPFVN. Pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement between SMFBIL and SMPFIL, 10% of the purchase price was paid in July 2010 and the balance of US$ 16.8 million (P734.3 million as at December 31, 2010) shall be payable (i) upon change in controlling interest of SMPFIL to any third person other than an affiliate or (ii) two years from July 30, 2010, subject to floating interest rate based on one-year LIBOR plus an agreed margin after one year, whichever comes first.

Pursuant to the Agreement, 10% of the purchase price was paid in July 2010 and the balance shall be payable (i) upon change in controlling interest of SMPFC to any third person other than an affiliate or (ii) two years from July 30, 2010, subject to floating interest rate based on one-year PDSTF plus an agreed margin after one year, whichever comes first. The balance was recognized as part of the Company’s payable to related parties (Note 17) as at December 31, 2010. As discussed in Note 35, the remaining balance was subsequently settled by SMPFC on March 8, 2011. SMC and SMPFC engaged the services of Fortman Cline Capital Markets Limited (FCCM) as financial adviser to perform a third party valuation of the food-related brands. The purchase price was arrived at after taking into account the result of the independent valuation study and analysis of FCCM. The Company assessed that there is no impairment loss in the value of trademarks and brand names in 2010. 15. Goodwill The movements in goodwill, including effects of currency translation adjustments, are as follows: Note Balance at beginning of year Additions Currency translation adjustments Balance at end of year 11 2010 P170,792 256,550 (11,032) P416,310 2009 P170,792 P170,792 The recoverable amount of goodwill has been determined based on a valuation using cash flow projections covering a five-year period based on long range plans approved by management. Cash flows beyond the five year period are extrapolated using a constant growth rate determined per individual cash-generating unit. This growth rate is consistent with the long-term average growth rate for the industry. The discount rate applied to after tax cash flow projections ranged from 12% to 14% and 12% to 13% in December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The discount rates also impute the risk of the cash-generating units compared to the respective risk of the overall market and equity risk premium. Management assessed that there is no impairment loss in the value of goodwill in 2010 and 2009. Management believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount is based would not cause its carrying amount to exceed its recoverable amount. The calculations of value in use are most sensitive to the following assumptions: Gross Margins. Gross margins are based on average values achieved in the period immediately before the budget period. These are increased over the budget period for anticipated efficiency improvements. Values assigned to key assumptions reflect past experience, except for efficiency improvement. - 42 - Discount Rates. The Group uses the weighted average cost of capital as the discount rates, which reflect management’s estimate of the risk specific to each unit. This is the benchmark used by management to assess operating performance and to evaluate future investments proposals. Raw Material Price Inflation. Forecast consumer price are obtained from indices during the budget period from which raw materials are purchased. Value assigned to key assumption is consistent with external sources of information. 16.

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies Objectives and Policies The Group has significant exposure to the following financial risks primarily from its use of financial instruments: Interest Rate Risk Foreign Currency Risk Commodity Price Risk Liquidity Risk Credit Risk This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the foregoing risks, the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing these risks, and the Group’s management of capital. The Group’s principal non-trade related financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, AFS financial assets, short-term and long-term loans, and derivative instruments. These financial instruments, except derivative instruments, are used mainly for working capital management purposes. The Group’s trade-related financial assets and financial liabilities such as trade and other receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities arise directly from and are used to facilitate its daily operations. The Group’s outstanding derivative instruments such as commodity options are intended mainly for risk management purposes. The Group uses derivatives to manage its exposures to commodity price risks arising from the Group’s operations. The BOD has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The BOD has established the Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The committee reports regularly to the BOD on its activities. The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Group Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Group Audit Committee is assisted in its oversight role by Internal Audit. Internal Audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Audit Committee. The Group’s accounting policies in relation to derivatives are set out in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. - 56 - Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows from a financial instrument (cash flow interest rate risk) or its fair value (fair value interest rate risk) will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. On the other hand, borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The Group manages its interest cost by using an optimal combination of fixed and variable rate debt instruments. Management is responsible for monitoring the prevailing market-based interest rate and ensures that the mark-up rates charged on its borrowings are optimal and benchmarked against the rates charged by other creditor banks. In managing interest rate risk, the Group aims to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group’s earnings. Over the longer term, however, permanent changes in interest rates would have an impact on profit or loss. The management of interest rate risk is also supplemented by monitoring the sensitivity of the Group’s financial instruments to various standard and non-standard interest rate scenarios. Interest rate movements affect reported equity in the following ways: retained earnings arising from increases or decreases in interest income or interest expense as well as fair value changes reported in profit or loss, if any; fair value reserves arising from increases or decreases in fair values of AFS financial assets reported as part of other comprehensive income; and hedging reserves arising from increases or decreases in fair values of hedging instruments designated in qualifying cash flow hedge relationships reported as part of other comprehensive income. The sensitivity to a reasonably possible 1% increase in the interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would have decreased the Group’s profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings) by P37.0 million in 2010. A 1% decrease in the interest rate would have had the equal but opposite effect. These changes are considered to be reasonably possible given the observation of prevailing market conditions in those periods. There is no impact on the Group’s other comprehensive income. Interest Rate Risk Table As at December 31, 2010, the terms and maturity profile of the interest-bearing financial instruments, together with its gross amounts, are shown in the following table: <5 years Fixed rate Philippine peso-denominated Interest rate Floating rate Philippine peso-denominated Interest rate P800,000 5.4885% 3,700,000 PDST-F for 3 months + margin P4,500,000 - 57 - Foreign Currency Risk The Group’s functional currency is the Philippine peso, which is the denomination of the bulk of the Group’s revenues. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk results from significant movements in foreign exchange rates that adversely affect the foreign currency-denominated transactions of the Group. The Group’s risk management objective with respect to foreign currency risk is to reduce or eliminate earnings volatility and any adverse impact on equity. The Group enters into foreign currency hedges using non-derivative instruments to manage its foreign currency risk exposure. Information on the Group’s foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities and their Philippine peso equivalents are as follows: 2009 2010 Assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Liabilities Notes payable Trade payables and other current liabilities Other noncurrent liabilities Net foreign currency-denominated monetary assets (liabilities) US Dollar Peso Equivalent US Dollar Peso Equivalent US$1,641 11,478 P71,941 503,196 13,119 575,137 US$1,476 5,308 6,784 P68,191 245,230 313,421 13,265 581,538 106 4,900 26,902 790 40,957 1,179,383 34,634 1,795,555 3,932 627 4,665 181,658 28,965 215,523 US$2,119 P97,898 (US$27,838) (P1,220,418) The Group reported net foreign exchange gains (losses) amounting to (P24.9 million), (P1.0 million) and P5.9 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, with the translation of its foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. These mainly resulted from the movements of the Philippine peso against the US dollar as shown in the following table: Peso to US Dollar 43.84 46.20 47.52 December 31, 2010 December 31, 2009 December 31, 2008 The management of foreign currency risk is also supplemented by monitoring the sensitivity of the Group’s financial instruments to various foreign currency exchange rate scenarios. Foreign exchange movements affect reported equity in the following ways: retained earnings arising from increases or decreases in unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains or losses; translation reserves arising from increases or decreases in foreign exchange gains or losses recognized directly as part of other comprehensive income; and hedging reserves arising from increases or decreases in foreign exchange gains or losses of the hedged item and the hedging instrument. - 58 - The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the US dollar exchange rate, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s profit before tax (due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities) and the Group’s equity (due to translation of results and financial position of foreign operations) as at December 31, 2010 and 2009. 2010 P1 decrease in the US dollar exchange rate Effect on Effect on Income before Equity Income Tax (net of tax) Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Notes payable Trade payables and other current liabilities Other noncurrent liabilities (P1,641) (11,478) (P1,149) (8,034) (13,119) 13,265 P1 increase in the US dollar exchange rate Effect on Effect on Income before Equity Income Tax (net of tax) P1,641 11,478 P1,149 8,034 (9,183) 9,286 13,119 (13,265) 9,183 (9,286) 26,902 790 18,831 553 (26,902) (790) (18,831) (553) 40,957 28,670 (40,957) (28,670) P27,838 P19,487 (P27,838) (P19,487) 2009 P1 decrease in the US dollar exchange rate Effect on Effect on Income before Equity Income Tax (net of tax) Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Notes payable Trade payables and other current liabilities Other noncurrent liabilities P1 increase in the US dollar exchange rate Effect on Effect on Income before Equity Income Tax (net of tax) (P1,476) (5,308) (P1,033) (3,716) (6,784) 106 (4,749) 74 6,784 (106) 4,749 (74) 3,932 627 2,753 439 (3,932) (627) (2,753) (439) 4,665 3,266 (4,665) (3,266) P2,119 P1,483 (P2,119) (P1,483) P1,476 5,308 P1,033 3,716 Exposures to foreign exchange rates vary during the year depending on the volume of overseas transactions. Nonetheless, the analysis above is considered to be representative of the Group’s currency risk. Commodity Price Risk Commodity price risk is the risk that future cash flows from a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in commodity prices. The Group, through SMC, enters into various commodity derivatives to manage its price risks on strategic commodities. Commodity hedging allows stability in prices, thus offsetting the risk of volatile market fluctuations. Through hedging, prices of commodities are fixed at levels acceptable to the Group, thus protecting raw material cost and preserving margins. For hedging transactions, if prices go down, hedge positions may show mark-to-market losses; however, any loss in the mark-to-market position is offset by the resulting lower physical raw material cost. SMC enters into commodity derivative transactions on behalf of the Group to reduce cost by optimizing purchasing synergies within the SMC Group of Companies and managing inventory levels of common materials. - 59 - The Group uses commodity futures and options to manage the Group’s exposures to volatility in prices of certain commodities such as fuel oil, soybean meal and wheat. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk pertains to the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s objectives to manage its liquidity risk are as follows: (a) to ensure that adequate funding is available at all times; (b) to meet commitments as they arise without incurring unnecessary costs; (c) to be able to access funding when needed at the least possible cost; and (d) to maintain an adequate time spread of refinancing maturities. The Group constantly monitors and manages its liquidity position, liquidity gaps or surplus on a daily basis. A committed stand-by credit facility from several local banks is also available to ensure availability of funds when necessary. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments used for liquidity management as at December 31, 2010 and 2009. 2010 Carrying Contractual amount cash flow Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents P7,041,345 Trade and other receivables - net 7,760,271 Derivative assets 107,633 AFS financial assets (included under “Other noncurrent assets” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) 11,232 Financial Liabilities Notes payable 5,172,538 Trade payables and other current liabilities (excluding derivative liabilities) 15,142,853 Derivative liabilities (included under “Trade payables and other current liabilities” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) 3,116 Long-term debt 4,460,807 Other noncurrent liabilities (excluding retirement liability) 2,883 1year > 1 year or less 2 years >2 years 5 years Over 5 years P7,041,345 P7,041,345 P - P - P - 7,760,271 107,633 7,760,271 107,633 - - - - - 11,232 11,232 - 5,250,284 5,250,284 - - - 15,142,853 15,142,853 - - - 3,116 5,423,012 3,116 - - - 2,883 2,883 - 60 - 5,423,012 - - - 2009 Carrying amount Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents P3,950,346 Trade and other receivables - net 9,023,953 Derivative assets 47,070 AFS financial assets (included under “Other noncurrent assets” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) 13,761 Financial Liabilities Notes payable 8,816,090 Trade payables and other current liabilities (excluding derivative liabilities) 12,653,724 Derivative liabilities (included under “Trade payables and other current liabilities” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) 13,362 Contractual cash flow 1year or less P3,950,346 9,023,953 47,070 13,761 > 1 year 2 years >2 years 5 years P3,950,346 P - P - P - 9,023,953 47,070 - - - - - 13,761 - Over 5 years 8,833,169 8,833,169 - - - 12,653,724 12,653,724 - - - 13,362 13,362 - - - Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s trade receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer or counterparty. Thus, the Group has established detailed credit policies under which each new customer is reviewed individually for creditworthiness before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are implemented. The Group ensures that sales on account are made to customers with appropriate credit history. The Group has detailed credit criteria and several layers of credit approval requirements before engaging a particular customer or counterparty. The Group also manages its credit risk mainly through the application of transaction limits and close risk monitoring. It is the Group’s policy to enter into transactions with a wide diversity of creditworthy counterparties to mitigate any significant concentration of credit risk. The Group has regular internal control reviews to monitor the granting of credit and management of credit exposures. Goods are subject to retention of title clauses so that in the event of default, the Group would have a secured claim. Where appropriate, the Group obtains collateral or arranges master netting agreements. The Group recognizes provision for uncollectible accounts and impairment losses, based on specific and collective impairment tests, when objective evidence of impairment has been identified either on an individual account or on a portfolio level. - 61 - Financial information on the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk as at December 31, 2010 and 2009, without considering the effects of collaterals and other risk mitigation techniques, is presented below: Note 6 7 32 32 Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables - net Derivative assets AFS financial assets 2010 P7,041,345 7,760,271 107,633 11,232 P14,920,481 2009 P3,950,346 9,023,953 47,070 13,761 P13,035,130 The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, derivative assets and AFS financial assets is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable entities with high quality external credit ratings. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of counterparty. Generally, the maximum credit risk exposure of receivables is its carrying amount without considering collaterals or credit enhancements, if any. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk since the Group deals with a large number of homogenous trade customers. The Group does not execute any credit guarantee in favor of any counterparty. Financial and Other Risks Relating to Livestock The Group is exposed to financial risks arising from the change in cost and supply of feed ingredients and the selling prices of chicken, hogs and cattle and related products, all of which are determined by constantly changing market forces of supply and demand, and other factors. The other factors include environmental regulations, weather conditions and livestock diseases for which the Group has little control. The mitigating factors are listed below: The Group is subject to risks affecting the food industry, generally, including risks posed by food spoilage and contamination. Specifically, the fresh meat industry is regulated by environmental, health and food safety organizations and regulatory sanctions. The Group has put into place systems to monitor food safety risks throughout all stages of manufacturing and processing to mitigate these risks. Furthermore, representatives from the government regulatory agencies are present at all times during the processing of dressed chicken, hogs and cattle in all dressing and meat plants and issue certificates accordingly. The authorities, however, may impose additional regulatory requirements that may require significant capital investment at short notice. The Group is subject to risks relating to its ability to maintain animal health status considering that it has no control over neighboring livestock farms. Livestock health problems could adversely impact production and consumer confidence. However, the Group monitors the health of its livestock on a daily basis and proper procedures are put in place. The livestock industry is exposed to risk associated with the supply and price of raw materials, mainly grain prices. Grain prices fluctuate depending on the harvest results. The shortage in the supply of grain will result in adverse fluctuation in the price of grain and will ultimately increase the Group’s production cost. If necessary, the Group enters into forward contracts to secure the supply of raw materials at reasonable price. - 62 - Capital Management The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its businesses and maximize shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments, in the light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, pay-off existing debts, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group defines capital as paid-in capital stock, additional paid-in capital and retained earnings, both appropriated and unappropriated. Other components of equity such as treasury stock and cumulative translation adjustments are excluded from capital for purposes of capital management. The BOD has overall responsibility for monitoring capital in proportion to risk. Profiles for capital ratios are set in the light of changes in the Group’s external environment and the risks underlying the Group’s business, operation and industry. The Group monitors capital on the basis of debt-to-equity ratio, which is calculated as total debt divided by total equity. Total debt is defined as total current liabilities and total noncurrent liabilities, while equity is total equity as shown in the consolidated statements of financial position. There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year. The Group is not subject to regulatory-imposed capital requirements. 32. Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The table below presents a comparison by category of carrying amounts and fair values of the Group’s financial instruments as at December 31, 2010 and 2009: 2010 Carrying Amount Fair Value Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables - net Derivative assets AFS financial assets (included under “Other noncurrent assets” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) Financial liabilities Notes payable Trade payables and other current liabilities (excluding derivative liabilities) Derivative liabilities (included under “Trade payables and other current liabilities” account in the consolidated statements of financial position) Long-term debt Other noncurrent liabilities (excluding retirement liability) 2009 Carrying Amount Fair Value P7,041,345 P7,041,345 P3,950,346 P3,950,346 9,023,953 9,023,953 7,760,271 7,760,271 47,070 47,070 107,633 107,633 11,232 11,232 13,761 13,761 5,172,538 5,172,538 8,816,090 8,816,090 15,142,853 15,142,853 12,653,724 12,653,724 3,116 4,460,807 3,116 4,489,490 13,362 - 13,362 - 2,883 2,883 - - - 63 - The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments: Cash and Cash Equivalents and Trade and Other Receivables. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and receivables approximate fair values primarily due to the relatively short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Derivatives. The fair values of forward exchange contracts are calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates. In the case of freestanding currency and commodity derivatives, the fair values are determined based on quoted prices obtained from their respective active markets. Fair values for stand-alone derivative instruments that are not quoted from an active market and for embedded derivatives are based on valuation models used for similar instruments using both observable and non-observable inputs. AFS Financial Assets. The fair values of publicly traded instruments and similar investments are based on quoted market prices in an active market. For debt instruments with no quoted market prices, a reasonable estimate of their fair values is calculated based on the expected cash flows from the instruments discounted using the applicable discount rates of comparable instruments quoted in active markets. Unquoted equity securities are carried at cost less impairment. Notes Payable and Trade Payables and Other Current Liabilities. The carrying amounts of notes payable and trade payables and other current liabilities approximate fair values due to the relatively short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Long-term Debt and Other Noncurrent Liabilities. The fair value of interest-bearing fixed-rate loans is based on the discounted value of expected future cash flows using the applicable market rates for similar types of instruments as at reporting date. As at December 31, 2010, discount rates used range from 1.32% to 5.03%. The carrying amounts of floating rate loans with quarterly interest rate repricing approximate their fair values. Derivative Financial Instruments The Group’s derivative financial instruments according to the type of financial risk being managed and the details of freestanding and embedded derivative financial instruments that are categorized into those accounted for as hedges and those that are not designated as hedges are discussed below. The Group, through SMC, enters into various currency and commodity derivative contracts to manage its exposure on foreign currency and commodity price risk. The portfolio is a mixture of instruments including futures and options. Derivative Instruments Accounted for as Hedges Cash Flow Hedge. In 2008, the Group had outstanding bought and sold options designated as hedge of forecasted purchases of fuel oil requirements for 2009. These options were exercised at various calculation dates in 2009 with specified quantities on each calculation date. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no outstanding commodity options accounted for as cash flow hedge. However, the amount charged to profit or loss in 2009 amounted to P7.6 million. These option contracts were used to hedge the commodity price risk of the Group’s commitments. There was no ineffective portion on these hedges. - 64 - Other Derivative Instruments Not Designated as Hedges The Group enters into certain derivatives as economic hedges of certain underlying exposures. These include freestanding commodity options and embedded currency forwards which are not designated as accounting hedges. Changes in fair value of these instruments are accounted for directly in profit or loss. Details are as follows: Freestanding Derivatives Freestanding derivatives consist of various commodity options entered into by SMC on behalf of the Group. The Group had outstanding bought and sold options covering its wheat requirements with various maturities in 2010 and 2011. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the notional quantity allocated to the Group is 49,532 and 59,874 metric tons, respectively. The net positive (negative) fair value of these options as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to P53.9 million and (P5.8 million), respectively. Embedded Derivatives The Group’s embedded derivatives include currency forwards embedded in non-financial contracts. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the total outstanding notional amount of such embedded currency forwards amounted to US$34.4 million and US$28.6 million, respectively. These non-financial contracts consist mainly of foreign currencydenominated purchase orders, sales agreements and capital expenditures. The embedded forwards are not clearly and closely related to their respective host contracts. As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the net positive fair value of these embedded currency forwards amounted to P50.6 million and P39.5 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Group recognized mark-to-market gains (losses) from freestanding and embedded derivatives amounting to P167.0 million, P54.5 million and (P388.3 million), respectively. Fair Value Changes on Derivatives The net movements in fair value of all derivative instruments for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows: Balance at beginning of year Net changes in fair value of derivatives: Designated as accounting hedges Not designated as accounting hedges Less fair value of settled instruments Balance at end of year 2010 P33,708 2009 (P108,456) 167,021 200,729 96,212 P104,517 3,645 55,267 (49,544) (83,252) P33,708 Hedge Effectiveness Results As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no outstanding derivatives designated as hedge. Fair value hierarchy Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position are categorized in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. This hierarchy groups financial assets and financial liabilities into three levels based on the significance of inputs used in measuring the fair value of the financial assets and financial liabilities. - 65 - The table below analyzes financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method as at December 31, 2010 and 2009. The different levels have been defined as follows: Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. 2010 Financial Assets Derivative assets AFS financial assets Financial Liabilities Derivative liabilities Level 1 Level 2 Total P53,907 1,557 P53,726 9,675 P107,633 11,232 3,116 3,116 Level 1 Level 2 Total P4,863 4,048 P42,207 9,713 P47,070 13,761 10,698 2,664 13,362 - 2009 Financial Assets Derivative assets AFS financial assets Financial Liabilities Derivative liabilities As at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Group has no financial instruments valued based on Level 3. During the year, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and no transfers into and out of Level 3 fair value measurements. The disclosure on fair value hierarchy is only presented for December 31, 2010 and 2009 as comparative information is not required in 2009, which was the first year of application of the amended PFRS 7. 33. Employee Stock Purchase Plan SMC offers shares of stocks to employees of SMC and its subsidiaries under the Employee’s Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). Under the ESPP, all permanent Philippine-based employees of SMC and its subsidiaries who have been employed for a continuous period of one year prior to the subscription period will be allowed to subscribe at a price equal to the weighted average of the daily closing market prices for three months prior to the offer period less 15% discount. A participating employee may acquire at least 100 shares of stocks through payroll deductions. The ESPP requires the subscribed shares and stock dividends accruing thereto to be pledged to SMC until the subscription is fully paid. The right to subscribe under the ESPP cannot be assigned or transferred. A participant may sell his shares after the second year from exercise date. The ESPP also allows subsequent withdrawal and cancellation of participants’ subscriptions under certain terms and conditions. - 66 - Expenses billed by SMC for share-based payments charged by the Group to operations and included in “Selling and Administrative Expenses” amounted to P17.6 million, P6.3 million and P5.5 million in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. 34. Other Matters a. Toll Agreements The significant subsidiaries are into toll processing with various contract growers, breeders, contractors and processing plant operators (collectively referred to as “the Parties”). The terms of the agreements include the following, among others: The Parties have the qualifications to provide the contracted services and have the necessary manpower, facilities and equipment to perform the services contracted. Tolling fees paid to the Parties are based on the agreed rate per acceptable output or processed product. The fees are normally subject to review in cases of changes in costs, volume and other factors. The periods of the agreement vary. Negotiations for the renewal of any agreement generally commence six months before expiry date. Total tolling expenses in 2010, 2009 and 2008 amounted to P3,971.0 million, P3,137.9 million, and P2,663.8 million, respectively. b. Contingencies The Group is a party to certain lawsuits or claims (mostly labor related cases) filed by third parties which are either pending decision by the courts or are subject to settlement agreements. The outcome of these lawsuits or claims cannot be presently determined. In the opinion of management and its legal counsel, the eventual liability from these lawsuits or claims, if any, will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. c. Commitments The outstanding capital and purchase commitments as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to P10,074.1 million and P13,813.6 million, respectively. d. Registration with the Board of Investments (BOI) Certain operations of consolidated subsidiaries are registered with the BOI as pioneer and non-pioneer activities. As registered enterprises, these consolidated subsidiaries are subject to some requirements and are entitled to certain tax and non-tax incentives which are considered in the computation of the provision for income tax.

Events After the Reporting Date On January 20, 2011, the SEC favorably considered the Company’s Registration Statement covering the registration of 15,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of P10.00 per share. On January 26, 2011, the PSE approved, subject to certain conditions, the (i) application of the Company to list up to 15,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of P10.00 per share to cover the Company’s follow-on preferred shares offering at an offer price of P1,000.00 per share and with a dividend rate determined by management on the dividend rate setting date.

Optional redemption of the preferred shares prior to 5th year from issuance date was provided under certain conditions (i.e., accounting, tax or change of control events). Unless the preferred shares are redeemed by the Company on its 5th year anniversary, the dividend rate shall be adjusted thereafter to the higher of the dividend rate of 8% or the ten-year PDST-F rate prevailing on the optional redemption date plus 3.33% per annum.

(the “Corporation”) received yesterday afternoon the approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the de-classification of the common shares of the Corporation from 95,128,000 Common Class “A” shares and 50,872,000 Common Class “B” shares, to 146,000,000 common shares, and the amendment of the Amended Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation to reflect the said declassification, by virtue of the Certificate of Filing of Amended Articles of Incorporation issued by the SEC on April 12, 2010. In compliance with Section 8 of the Revised Disclosure Rules, the Corporation will submit the following within two trading days from today: 3 (a) SEC Certified True Copy of the Amended Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, a copy of which is transmitted herewith; and (b) Detailed procedure to be undertaken by the Corporation in amending its stock certificates. April 16, 2010 Reply to PSE: This is further to our disclosure on April 14, 2010 regarding the approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the declassification of the common shares of San Miguel Pure Foods Company, Inc. (the “Corporation”) (the “De-classification”), and in response to your memo dated April 15, 2010 requesting additional information on the De-classification. a. Reason/purpose of De-classification The De-classification was carried out in line with the objective of the corporate restructuring plan of San Miguel Corporation, the parent company of the Corporation, to unlock the value of its operating subsidiaries, including the Corporation, and prepare them for greater public/investor participation. Prior to the De-classification, Class “A” common shares were transferable to Philippine nationals only, while Class “B” common shares were transferable to any person of any nationality. The De-classification removed this distinction, such that holders of common shares shall enjoy the same rights and privileges as previously granted to holders of Class “A” and Class “B” shares, except that all common shares may now be transferred to any person of any nationality. In both cases (whether before or after De-classification), no transfer of stock or interest that will reduce the ownership and voting equity of Philippine nationals to less than the required percentage of the capital stock under applicable law, shall be allowed or permitted to be recorded in the books of the Corporation. The De-classification will therefore allow holders of common shares in the Corporation to freely transfer their shares, subject to applicable laws on nationality requirements, thereby facilitating a broader investor base and greater public participation in the Corporation. b. Effects on Capital Structure Before De-classification After Declassification Issued Shares 95,049,129 Class “A” shares 50,401,979 Class “B” shares 145,451,108 common shares 94,663,673 Class “A” shares 46,579,677 Class “B” shares 141,243,350 common shares Outstanding Shares 4 Listed Shares 93,085,094 Class “A” shares 50,401,979 Class “B” shares 143,487,073 common shares 385,456 Class “A” shares 3,822,302 Class “B” shares 4,207,758 common shares Treasury Shares c. Procedure for Updating Stock Certificates The Corporation intends to issue letters to be distributed to its shareholders not later than April 21, 2010, together with the Definitive Information Statement for the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting scheduled on May 14, 2010, informing them of the De-classification. The shareholders will be requested to surrender their certificates to Class “A” and/or Class “B” common shares, to the Corporation’s stock transfer agent, SMC Stock Transfer Service Corporation, for cancellation and issuance of new certificates to common shares in their names. For lost or destroyed stock certificates, the following procedure in the Corporation Code shall be followed for the issuance by the Corporation of new certificates in lieu of those which have been lost, stolen or destroyed: (1)The registered stockholder or his legal representative shall file with the Corporation an Affidavit setting forth, if possible: (i) the circumstances as to how the certificates were lost, stolen or destroyed; (ii) the number of common shares in the Corporation represented by each certificate; (iii) the serial numbers of the certificates; and (iv) other information and evidence that he may deem necessary. (2) A notice of loss of the certificates should be published in a newspaper of general circulation published in the place where the Corporation has its principal office, once a week for three consecutive weeks, and an Affidavit together with a copy of such notice of loss should be submitted to the Corporation to evidence the said publication. (3) Instead of waiting for one year, the stockholder may file a bond or other security, running for a period of one year, for a sum and in such form and with such sureties as may be satisfactory to the Board of Directors of the Corporation, in which case a new certificate may be issued even before the expiry of the one-year period. (4) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a pending contest regarding the ownership of said certificate of stock, the issuance of the new certificate in lieu thereof shall be suspended until final decision by the courts. 5 d.
