NOTE 1:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a consequence of the application of General Resolutions No. 368/01, 434/03, 441/03 and 459/04 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores, which require that consolidated Financial Statements be presented as established by Technical Resolution No. 21 of the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas, the Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2005 and 2004 and the Statements of Income and the Statements of Cash Flows for the fiscal periods then ended were consolidated on a line by line basis with the financial statements of such companies in which it holds a majority of the voting shares, by application of the new rules, discontinuation of adjustment for inflation and application of proportional consolidation for investments in which it has joint control (see Note 1.b and 1.c to the unaudited basic financial statements).

As from this period, the Company has applied Technical Resolution No. 21 as concerns the proportional consolidation with Cactus Argentina S.A. on a 50% basis on account of the joint control held, and applied the same percentage for elimination of balances existing between them.

The financial statements of the subsidiary companies Inversiones Ganaderas S.A., Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A. and Cactus Argentina S.A. as of March 31, 2005 and 2004 have been used in order to determine the investment at its equity value, line by line consolidation and proportional consolidation.

For purposes of comparability, reclassifications have been made on the information at March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004.

These Financial Statements and the corresponding notes and schedules are prepared in Argentine Pesos.

The Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires enacted the following technical resolutions: N° 16: “Conceptual regime for professional accounting regulations”; N° 17: “Professional accounting regulations: development of matters of general application”, N° 18: “Professional accounting regulations: development of some matters of particular application” and N° 19 “ Modifications to technical resolutions N° 6, 8, 9, 11 and 14” and N° 20 “Derivative instruments and hedging transactions”, through Resolutions C 238/01, C 243/01, C 261/01, C 262/01 and C 187/02, respectively; establishing that such technical resolutions and the modifications incorporated, will be in force for Fiscal Years initiated as from July 1, 2002 (other than Technical Resolution No. 20, which shall become effective for fiscal years beginning as from January 1, 2003).

The Comisión Nacional de Valores, through Resolution N° 434/03 has adopted such technical resolutions with some exceptions and modifications, which have been in force for fiscal years initiated as from January 1, 2003.

The main changes basically result from the registration of income tax under the deferred tax method, as concerns agreements involving derivative instruments at their current value and the valuation of receivables and payables with no stated rate at their discounted value.

As at February 19, 2003, the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, enacted Technical Resolution N° 21 “Proportional value- merge of financial statements- information to provide on related parties” through Resolution M.D. N° 5/2003.

The above mentioned Technical Resolution and the amendments introduced became effective for fiscal years ended as from April 1, 2003. Furthermore, The Comisión Nacional de Valores has adopted such Technical Resolution, through Resolution Nª 459/04 introducing some modifications, which will be in force for fiscal years started as from April 1, 2004, consequently the Company has considered their application.

NOTE 1:

(Continued)

On January 12, 2005, the Professional Council of Economic Sciences of the City of Buenos Aires approved Technical Resolution No. 22, “Professional accounting rules: agricultural business” under its Resolution M.D. No. 01/2005. Such Technical Resolution will become effective for fiscal years starting as from July 1, 2005, and to date it has not been approved by the Comisión Nacional de Valores.

Financial statements corresponding to the nine-month economic periods ended to March 31, 2005 and 2004 have not been audited yet. The management believes they include all necessary settlements to reasonably show the results of each period. Results for the nine-month economic periods ended to March 31, 2005 and 2004 do not necessarily reflect the proportion of the company’s result for such complete years.

Accounting for inflation

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Resolution M.D. 3/02 of the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, which has established the application of Technical Resolution No. 6, as amended by Technical Resolution No. 19 of the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas, as from fiscal years or interim periods ended on or after March 31, 2002.

On March 25, 2003, the Poder Ejecutivo Nacional issued Decree No. 664 establishing that financial statements for fiscal years ended as from that date should be stated in nominal currency. Therefore, in accordance with Resolution No. 441 issued by the Comisión Nacional de Valores on April 8, 2003, the Company discontinued restatement of its financial statements effective March 1, 2003. This criteria does not comply with Resolution M.D. 041/2003, enacted by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, by means of which the restatement of financial statements as of October 1, 2003 is no longer compulsory. However, as of March 31, 2005, this deviation did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

As a consequence of the above, the initial balances at the Company’s financial statements are presented in constant currency as of February 28, 2003, having considered the accounting measurements restated by the changes in the purchasing power of the currency until interruption of the adjustment and those arising in the period of stability, restated into currency of December 2001. Transactions subsequent to February 28, 2003 have been recorded at their historical values.

The coefficients prepared based on the domestic wholesale price index, published by the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas y Censos, have been applied for purposes of the abovementioned restatement of comparative information.

Comparative Information

For comparison purposes, reclassifications have been made as of March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004.

NOTE 2:

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are used when accounting for the allowance for conversion of convertible bonds into shares of stock, doubtful accounts, depreciation, amortization, impairment of current and non-current assets, income taxes, deferred liabilities and allowances for contingencies, accrual for expenses and assets’ recoverable value. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Local currency assets and liabilities

The local currency assets and liabilities are stated at period-end nominal currency.

Foreign currency assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency have been valued at the amount of such currency as of the closing of the financial statements, converted at the buying and selling exchange rate, respectively, prevailing at year-end.

Temporary investments

Mutual funds are carried at market value as of period-end.

The Argentine debt bonds were valued at incurred cost.

The AR Discount bonds relating to the sovereign debt exchange launched by the Argentine government of its defaulted securities were valued at their purchase, rather than their listing, value because the issuance of such bonds, originally scheduled for March 31, 2005, has been suspended as a consequence of a legal action pending before the Second District Court of Appeals of the State of New York, United States of America.

Trade accounts receivable and payable

Trade accounts receivable and payable have been valued at their cash price estimated at the time of the transaction, plus interest and implied financial components accrued on the basis of the internal rate of return determined at such time, provided they are significant.

Credits and loans

Credits and loans have been valued in accordance with the sum of money delivered and received, respectively, net of transaction costs, plus financial results accrued on the basis of the rate estimated at such time as of period-end.

Futures and Options

Futures relate to cereal commitments deliverable at a previously agreed price (see Note 4) and bullions traded in the Chicago market.

Premiums collected or paid correspond to options bought or written.

The assets or liabilities originated in derivatives instruments have been valued at their market value at the closing of the period.

Differences generated by the application of the above mentioned valuation criteria to assets and liabilities from derivative instruments have been recognized under net income.

Other receivables and payables

Other receivables and payables have been valued on the basis of the agreed values plus interest accrued as of the closing of the financial statements.

Other receivables and payables in foreign currency have been valued at their amount in such currency at the fiscal period-end closing date, converted to the buyer and seller exchange rate, respectively, prevailing at the fiscal period-end closing date.

Balances with related parties

Receivables and payables with related parties have been valued in accordance with the conditions agreed between the parties involved.

Inventories

Livestock for raising and grazing cattle have been stated at their market value at the end of the period, net of estimated selling expenses. The livestock for dairy production and other purposes not related to direct sale over the next 12 months were valued at replacement cost.

Crops: at their quoted market value at the end of the period, less estimated sale expenses.

Sown lands: Sown lands are valued at the replacement cost of the supplies used, plus expenses accrued as of the closing of the financial statements.

The remaining inventories were valued at replacement value.

The carrying values of inventories, which are determined as discussed above, do not exceed their estimated recoverable values at the end of the period.

Long term investments in other companies

Investments in subsidiaries and affiliates

The investments in subsidiaries and affiliates in which the Company has significant influence have been accounted for under the equity method, as required by Technical Resolution No. 21 of the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas approved by Comisión Nacional de Valores.

Holdings at March 31, 2005 are as follows:


Subsidiaries and affiliates		% Equity interest
Inversiones Ganaderas S.A.		99.99
Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A.		70.00
Cactus Argentina S.A.		50.00
Agro Uranga S.A.		35.72
IRSA Inversiones y
Representaciones Sociedad Anónima (Note 14)		26.35

Consolidated financial statements with Inversiones Ganaderas S.A., Futuros y Opciones.Com and Cactus Argentina S.A. in proportional consolidation of 50% at March 31, 2005 and 2004 are presented as complementary information.

Current valuations and economic conditions reduce the risks inherent to long-term investment opportunities and increase the possibility of obtaining significant return in the long term. In view of these circumstances: (i) the value of the investment was set at market value; (ii) the value of the investment was calculated by the equity method of accounting; and (iii) the difference between (i) and (ii) was recognized as negative goodwill to be amortized over 20 years.

The Company records under Negative Goodwill the difference between the prices of the conversions of Convertible Bonds and/or Warrants into IRSA’s shares and the value assigned according to the calculation of the proportional equity value. Such amount is not subject to depreciation as it is impacted by the results from dilutions of third-party holders of Convertible Bonds of IRSA under the same headings.

As of March 31, 2005, the investment in Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A., valued on the basis of the proportional equity method (RT21), is disclosed as “Pending Contributions” under Other Liabilities because the equity of such Company for purposes of computing the investment is negative as of March 31, 2005. This situation will be reverted with the subsequent irrevocable contributions to be made by the shareholders.

Results for the period

The results for the period are disclosed in the paid cost.

The income statement shows the financial results, discriminating those generated by assets and those generated by liabilities.

Income Tax

The Company has recognized the income tax liability on the basis of the deferred tax liability method, thus considering temporary differences between registration of assets and liabilities for accounting and tax purposes. The principal temporary differences originate in the valuation of livestock and the sale and replacement of fixed assets.

In order to determine deferred assets and liabilities the tax rate expected to be in effect at the temporary of reversal or use has been applied on the temporary differences identified and tax loss carryforwards, considering the laws enacted as of the date of issuance of these financial statements (35%).

Assets and liabilities generated by the application of the deferred tax method have been valued at face value.

Tax on minimum hypothetical income

The Company determines the tax on minimum hypothetical income applying the prevailing rate of 1% on computable assets at fiscal period-end. This tax is supplementary to the income tax. The Company’s tax liability for each period will be the higher of these two taxes. However, if the tax on minimum hypothetical income exceeds the income tax in any fiscal year, such excess may be computed as payment on account of the income tax that may be payable in any of the following ten fiscal years.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized on sales of products when the customer receives title to the goods, generally upon delivery.

Unaudited Business Highlight

Buenos Aires, May 11, 2005 - Cresud S.A.C.I.F. y A. (Nasdaq: CRESY – BASE: CRES), one of the leading agricultural companies in Argentina, announces today the results corresponding to the first nine months of Fiscal Year 2005 ended on March 31, 2005.

Results for the first nine months of Fiscal Year 2005 showed a net profit of Ps. 62.2 million as compared to a Ps. 10.2 million profit registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year, denoting a 506% increase.

The increase in the net result is mainly a consequence of: (i) the higher results registered in our cattle stock holdings (generated by a stronger market value) which went from Ps. 1.9 million during the same period of Fiscal Year 2004 to Ps. 9.3 million for the current period, (ii) stronger results due to the sale of farms, which increased Ps. 6.0 million amounting Ps. 7.7 million for the period ended March 31, 2005, and (iii) Ps. 68.8 million profit from the sale of IRSA’s Convertible Notes held by the company.

Consolidated net sales for the period amounted Ps. 49.9 million, 9% higher than those registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year, mainly due to the higher volume of crops and cattle sold during the nine-month period.

Gross Income during the first nine months of Fiscal Year 2005 amounted to Ps. 12.4 million as compared to Ps. 19.1 million gross profit registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year.

This reduction in gross profit is partly a consequence of crop lower prices. At the beginning of Fiscal Year 2004 the company had accumulated agricultural commodities that when appreciated generated profits due to their revalorization. On the contrary, the stock at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2005 did not undergo the same.

Besides, milk sales decreased and prices were slightly lower, therefore reducing the margin obtained from this activity. In addition, there were increases in the costs of this business unit as a consequence of the expenses generated by the operation of the dairy farm at the “El Tigre” facility, which is in an incipient productive stage due to its recent opening.

Operating Income showed for the nine month period ended on March 31, 2005 a Ps. 20.7 million profit, compared to a Ps. 14.8 million profit registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year.

Results from related companies generated a Ps. 20.9 million profit, mainly due to our share ownership in IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S.A. as at March 31, 2005.

Summary of operations

Crops

During the period crop sales amounted Ps. 15.0 million, compared to Ps. 14.1 million registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year. Crop volume sold amounted 45,531 tons at an average price of Ps. 330 per ton compared to 38,938 tons sold at an average price of Ps. 363 during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year.

At March 31, 2005, 100% of the 5,884 sowed area destined to wheat was harvested obtaining a 4.0 tons per hectare yield, surpassing Company’s forecasts.

Sunflower harvest, with 1,765 hectares, also ended during the period. Yields obtained reached 2.0 tons per hectare while during the previous season it had amounted 1.6 tons per hectare.

Likewise, corn and soybean harvests are developing satisfactorily, with yields high above those forecasted. As of today, 82% of the area destined to soybean had been harvested, while the corn harvest had reached 39%.

Crop stocks at the closing of the period amounted 38,216 tons of which 17,332 tons corresponded to wheat and 13,089 to corn.

Gross profit for the period ended on March 31, 2005 amounted Ps. 3.3 million compared to a Ps. 7.6 million profit for the same period of the previous Fiscal Year. The drop registered in this item is partly consequence of crop’s lower prices, besides increases in direct costs. At the beginning of Fiscal Year 2004 the company had accumulated agricultural commodities that when appreciated generated profits due to their revalorization. On the contrary, the stocks accumulated at Fiscal Year 2005 did not follow during the period ended on March 31, 2005 similar trends

For the current season we have destined 35,848 hectares to agriculture, of which 16,142 hectares were leased to third parties.

Most of the leases were agreed with a fix payment prior to harvest and only a small percentage were crop-sharing agreements.

Beef Cattle

As of March 31, 2005, the Company’s cattle stock amounted to 93,880 heads with 126,964 hectares destined to this activity.

Livestock sales increased by 37% from Ps. 19.8 million as of March 31, 2004 to Ps. 27.1 million as of March 31, 2005. During the nine month period a total of 13,078 tons were sold, while during the first nine months of Fiscal Year 2004 tons sold amounted to 10,646. The sustained increase which beef cattle prices have been experiencing was also important for increasing Company’s revenues within this business unit.

Gross profit for the cattle beef segment amounted to Ps. 4.9 million, as compared to Ps. 5.9 million profit registered during the first nine months of the previous Fiscal Year. This decrease in the gross profit was a consequence of both the increase in direct costs and cattle finished in feed lot premises and the increase in initial stock holdings as compared to the previous year. For the nine month period ended on March 31, 2004, 46% of sales in tons were from cattle finished in feed lot premises, while during 2005, such sales increased to 76%.

Cattle beef production amounted 8,480 tons, while during the previous Fiscal Year it had amounted 8,475 tons.

Livestock prices had a favorable evolution during the course of the first nine months of Fiscal Year 2005. After the advance of the agriculture business over the cattle beef business, livestock offers experienced severe cuts, therefore helping to push up rising prices of livestock.

Additionally, there are promising perspectives for this market, mostly referring to reductions in commercial barriers worldwide, which would make for a better use of the cattle cuts and a higher final price for the cattle producer. After a year of the appearance of the last foot and mouth disease focus within the country, Argentina has obtained the free foot and mouth disease status with vaccination issued by the Animal Health Organization (OIE), which will grant an additional benefit to seek new markets, such as the US and Canada, were initial correspondence has taken place.

Furthermore, the export of thermo-processed cattle beef to China was approved, shortly enabling the opening of the commercialization of fresh meat.

Likewise, the price of livestock in Argentina could result in similar prices to those found in Uruguay (which is actually 13% above local prices) whose evolution after the opening of international markets had a positive outcome. In that sense, and in order to sustain its offer, Uruguay started importing livestock from Argentina, therefore arbitrating cattle markets.

Milk

Milk production decreased 7% during the period from 5.3 million liters as of March 31, 2004 to 4.9 million liters as of March 31, 2005.

Gross profit at March 31, 2005, amounted Ps. 1.1 million, 48% lower than that registered during the same period of the previous Fiscal Year. The main reason that caused this reduction was the increase in the costs of this business unit resulting from the expenses incurred in milk development, which does not yield enough income to compensate for such losses as it is still in an initial stage.

As of March 1, 2005 the company opened “El Tigre” a dairy facility with state of the art technology. In this sense, actual productive capacity would increase in approximately 36,000 litters daily. We are forecasting for this business unit yields above those of the agriculture segment. The estimated investment in this project amounts US$ 1.0 million approximately.

Currently “La Juanita”, the other productive dairy farm of the company, has a feeding system based solely on pastures. This low-cost feeding system allows us to improve milk margins compared to the use of grain-feeding system.

The milk business in Argentina went through severe oscillations during the course of time, from the euphoria of 1997 and 1998 to the 2001 crisis. Actually, with firm prices, this segment is once again attractive.

Feed Lot

During the nine month period ended as of March 31, 2005, our 170 hectare Feed Lot, located in the province of San Luis, where the Company’s equity interest through Cactus Argentina S.A. is 50%, was affected by the seasonality of the business hence decreasing the occupation levels and revenues.

Due to these facts, income decreased from Ps. 16.9 million at March 31, 2004 to Ps. 7.2 million during the current period. It is worth mentioning that draughts registered during the first semester of Fiscal Year 2004, had a positive effect rising the occupation levels of the feed lot and also reverting the trend generated during this time of the year.

The uniformity obtained in the final product of the feed lot cattle has granted buyers a high quality product, making its commercialization easy and obtaining higher prices at the moment of selling.

Due to the consistent occupation level the Feed Lot has been registering quarter after quarter we plan the development of a second enterprise of similar characteristics, which could be located within Argentina or abroad.

Due to the above mentioned, during the period closed March 31, 2005, Cactus Argentina S.A. registered a Ps. 0.2 million loss compared to a Ps. 0.6 million profit registered for the period ended on March 31, 2004.

Forecasts for the coming quarter are highly promising, expecting to surpass previous occupation levels, reaching 18,000 cattle heads.

Sale of farms

At the end of Fiscal Year 2004 and commencement of Fiscal Year 2005 bills of sale for the farms “Ñacurutú” and “San Enrique” have been signed. During February 2005, title deeds for “Ñacurutú”, a 30,353 hectare farm located in the province of Santa Fe were signed. The sale price amounted to US$ 5.6 million generating a Ps. 7.7 million profit. Likewise “San Enrique” would generate US$ 4.3 million profit, thus positively impacting on future financial statements corresponding to the current Fiscal Year.

During February 2005, we also signed bills of sale for “El Gualicho” farm of 5,727 hectares, located in the province of Cordoba. It is expected that this operation will generate a US$ 3.5 million profit which will be reflected in Fiscal Year 2006 financial statements.

On the other hand, in March 2005 we signed the bill of sale for 72 hectares in Cuartel Segundo, Luján, province of Buenos Aires. The amount of money to pay for this operation reached Ps. 0.5 million which will be cancelled at the moment of signing title deeds.

This operations, besides confirming the company’s excellent record, are examples of the unrealized value of its assets.

Development of marginal lands

We believe that the business’s potential, as has happened in various countries worldwide, relies on the development of marginal land; using state of the art technology, yields comparable to those of the nucleus area can be obtained, with better yields.

For the current season, to the 12,700 productive hectares destined to cattle in our “Los Pozos” farm, located in Salta, we have added 4,000 additional hectares for cattle beef production, while 1,300 hectares are destined to agriculture. Due to the inclusion of these 4,000 hectares, we could increase our cattle stock in 2,500 additional heads, which together with the stability of fixed costs enabled an improvement in productive margins.

Besides, clearing works on 6,000 additional hectares for cattle are being, and will enter into production next Fiscal Year.

Additionally, the 1,185 hectares recently developed in our “Agro Riego San Luis” farm, located in the province of San Luis, for crop irrigation, have entered into production the current season. This farm improved its gross margin due to higher yields obtained thanks to better weather conditions, profitable commercial agreements with seed’s producers who rent a share of this farm, and the incorporation of new productive hectares which allows us to reduce fixed costs.

Cresud’s land reserves amount to 263,000 hectares which were acquired at very low prices. We believe that with the development of these areas, together with proper technology, the value of land will rise generating interesting returns for the Company.

Expansion to Brazil

After analyzing the potential of the Brazilian agricultural business, the Company has decided to expand its activities to that market through a private fund jointly with strategic local partners. At present, we are developing the business plan, and will start searching for investors in the next months.

Results from IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S.A.

The result derived from our equity interest in IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S. A. (NYSE: IRS – BASE: IRSA) showed a Ps. 78.2 million profit for the period compared to a Ps. 45.2 million profit as of March 31, 2004.

IRSA’s result was strongly influenced by an increase in the income which grew 46.3%, from Ps. 185.8 million for the nine month period of Fiscal Year 2004 to Ps. 271.9 million for the same period of the current Fiscal Year, mainly due to the increase of (i) Ps. 58.2 million in shopping centers, (ii) Ps. 11.4 million in the sales and development segment, (iii) Ps. 13.7 million in the hotels segment and (iv) Ps. 2.7 in the offices and other rental properties.

IRSA is Argentina’s leading real estate company with a totally diversified portfolio of properties. IRSA participates in the following business segments:

•

Office rental with more than 83,000 m2 of premium offices for lease.

•

Operation of Shopping Centers through its 61% equity interest in Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA) (NASDAQ: APSA, BASE: APSA). APSA is one of the leading operators of shopping centers in Argentina and owns or has majority interest in 9 shopping centers with 196,241 m2 of gross leasable area.

•

Sale of residential properties

•

Holding and operation of luxury hotels through its equity interest in 3 five star hotels

Besides, IRSA owns land reserves for current and future developments valued at Ps. 355.8 million.

Additionally, IRSA owns an 11.8% stake in Banco Hipotecario, Argentina’s largest mortgage supplier in the country which shareholder’s equity amounted to Ps. 1,959 million.

IRSA’s total Consolidated Assets amounts to Ps. 2,408.5 million and its Shareholder’s Equity amounts to Ps. 1,194.5 million.

During the current quarter IRSA received the conversion of Convertible Notes and Warrants from third parties increasing the amount of shares in circulation from 296,575,497 as of January 31, 2005 to 338,372,526 as of March 31, 2005. Such increase enabled a decrease in our holding in IRSA to 20.4%. For this reason, the Board has commended to our Management the evaluation of the conditions to resolve a potential re-composition of the stock holding, which as of December 31, 2004 amounted to 26.35%. It is possible that the conditions to carry out such re-composition occur prior to the end of the Fiscal Year, hence such variation in stock was not accounted for. Currently, our equity interest in IRSA is valued through the proportional equity value method.

During the quarter, as the harvest moved forward, we decided to cancel some loans. Hence, as of March 31, 2005, loans with local financial entities amounted to Ps. 22.6 million.

Perspectives for the coming quarter

Perspectives for the upcoming quarter are highly promising the opening of new international markets could continue impacting positively on the cattle beef segment. Moreover, we expect a recovery in the occupancy of our Feed Lot.

The last quarter of the year is the one with the highest impact on agricultural business, as most of the soybean and corn crops are harvested during this period.

The projected corn and soybean harvest reflects yields higher than those budgeted.

According to our strategy of developing new agricultural business projects, we are making progress in our expansion to Brazil, which we plan to materialize during the next Fiscal Year.

We are also starting to close the lease transactions relating to the agricultural activities for the next crop year. In line with our policy, we focus on opportunities that allow us to ensure minimum activity levels.
