3) CEO Message:

Jose Antonio Gomez-Bazan, CEO of Camposol, expressed his excitement about the company’s first-quarter performance:

“I’m thrilled to announce the exceptional results we’ve achieved. Our sales reached an impressive USD 152 million, reflecting a notable 29% increase from 1Q 2023. Equally noteworthy, our EBITDA surged to USD 60.4 million, marking a remarkable 119.1% increase over the same period. Furthermore, our net profit reached USD 36.0 million, showcasing a significant 76.5% increase compared to the entire year of 2023. These outstanding achievements were fueled by the exceptional performance of our mango and blueberry segments, where our team’s coordination from the field to our distribution companies played a pivotal role in overcoming industry challenges.

Additionally, our disciplined financial management played a crucial role in enhancing our financial position by reducing both short and long-term debt. By continuing the efficiency initiatives identified in 2023 and prioritizing debt reduction, we’ve bolstered our financial stability and positioned ourselves for sustained success. I’m immensely proud of our team’s unwavering commitment and optimistic about the bright future that lies ahead.”

4) First Quarter Review:

In the blueberry segment, volume grew by 21.1% compared to 1Q 2023, with sales amounting to USD 117.5 million. The volume sold reached 16.1 million MT, while revenue increased by 35.5%, with a gross profit growth of 36.8%. Despite market dynamics leaning towards price normalization due to increased volumes from Peru and the ongoing Chilean campaign, our coordinated efforts between field operations and distribution companies, coupled with direct engagement with key retailers, resulted in a strategic allocation with a price higher than that of the first quarter in 2023.

In the mango segment, despite a 24.3% decrease in volume compared to 1Q 2023, sales amounted to USD 29.4 million. The volume sold reached 10.2 million MT, while revenue surged by 48.5%, with gross profit skyrocketing by 203.1%. Camposol demonstrated resilience amidst a notable decline in production levels across the Peruvian industry. Leveraging our harvested volume, which remained robust due to our meticulous management practices such as efficient irrigation systems ensuring consistent nutrient delivery to our trees during the whole season, we capitalized on opportune moments to secure favorable market prices.

Camposol demonstrated resilience amidst industry challenges, leveraging robust harvested volume and efficient management practices to secure favorable market prices.

Additionally, debt restructuring initiatives resulted in an improved financial position by a significant reduction of USD 43 million dollars between short-term and long-term debt, achieving a Net Debt / EBITDA ratio of 3.37x, an impressive improvement from the 8.27x at closing 1Q 2023.

1In the discussion of operating results, CAMPOSOL refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA. CAMPOSOLs management makes regular use of these measures to evaluate performance, both in absolute terms and comparatively from period to period. EBITDA, which CAMPOSOL defines as sales minus cost of goods sold, administrative and selling expenses plus depreciation and amortization, approximates cash flow from continuing operating activities before tax and net operating capital changes.  Furthermore, for the calculation of the Net Debt/EBITDA ratio, we utilize the EBITDA from the last 12 months (LTM).
