Pursuant to section o) of the Regulations aforementioned, we inform that as of the fiscal year ended on June 30, 2011, the capital stock of the Company is Ps. 501,562,534 whose share structure is divided into 501,562,534 nominative non-endorsable common shares of $1 par value each and each entitled to 1 vote.

Our principal shareholder is Inversiones Financieras del Sur S.A. with 185,517,694 shares, which represent 36.99% of the issued and outstanding capital stock.-

Furthermore, we inform that as of June 30, 2011, 311,044,086 nominative non-endorsable common shares of $1 par value each and each entitled to 1 vote of the Company are not within the group of principal shareholders, which represent 62,02% of the issued and outstanding capital stock.

After the allocation of the treasury shares made on November 23, 2009 the amount of 5,000,754 shares were held in our portfolio as treasury shares as of June 30, 2011, which represented 0.99% of the subscribed capital stock of the Company.

On March 2008, we increased our share capital in 180 million shares. Each shareholder received, for each share subscribed, free of charge one warrant to purchase 0,33333333 new shares at a price of US$ 1.68 for every share to be purchased. As a consequence of the pro rata allotment of the treasury shares among the shareholders, dated November 23, 2009, the terms and conditions


of such warrants have been modified; accordingly the ratio after the allotment per option is 0.35100598, and the current price after the allotment is U$S1.5954. The warrants are due May 22, 2015. The warrants are listed in the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires under the symbol “CREW2” and in Nasdaq under the symbol “CREW”.

If the warrant’s holders exercise all the outstanding warrants, the outstanding shares would increase to 563,915,285. If holders of the warrants exercised all their warrants, the holding of Inversiones Financieras del Sur S.A. would increase up to 29,675,561 common shares, representative of 38.16%., for a total interest of 215,193,255 common shares.

Below are the highlights for this fiscal year:

 

   

Net income increased 14.6% to Ps. 212.6 million.

 

   

Operating income rose 23.9% to Ps. 727.1 million.

 

   

Operating income from the Agribusiness Segment amounted to Ps. 168.3 million, increasing 177.9% as compared to the previous year.

 

   

The Argentine agribusiness industry saw improvements in the amount of tons produced per hectare, beef cattle prices and dairy margins.

 

   

We made progress in our developments in Agropecuaria Anta and Los Pozos, located in Salta, where we put into production more than 6,000 additional hectares during the year. In addition, we put into production 5,300 additional hectares in our farms in Paraguay, and we expect to maintain the development rate during the next fiscal year.

 

   

We sold La Juanita farm in the Province of Buenos Aires for USD 18.0 million, at a gain of Ps. 49.6 million, and 910 hectares in La Fon Fon farm in Bolivia, for a price of USD 3.6 million. In addition, we purchased 2 new farms in Bolivia for a total amount of USD 13.5 million.

 

   

The Company has consolidated the financial statements of BrasilAgro, its Brazilian subsidiary, effective as from June 30, 2011.

 

   

Our subsidiary IRSA has had a great year: its EBITDA increased 9%, showing the strength of its business lines exposed to consumption and the robustness of the real estate industry in Argentina.

 

   

Subsequently to the fiscal year end, the Company placed USD 60 million in 7.5% notes for a term of 3 years, marking the first issuance of international debt by a Latin American agricultural company.

The Board of Directors continues to analyze the proposals for allocation of the Company’s net income, the payment of dividends and fees, and the treatment of treasury shares, which shall be reported immediately after their determination.
