Financial & Operational Performance Highlights

In our Sugar, Ethanol & Energy business, Adjusted EBITDA reached $138.1 million in 3Q21, 59.8%, or $51.7 million higher compared to the same period of last year. Crushing volume was only 0.2 million tons lower compared to 3Q20, despite lower than expected agricultural productivity indicators caused by the frost that affected Brazil's main productive areas during June and July. This achievement was possible as we increased harvested area and the amount of cane purchased from third parties, in addition to speeding up harvesting activities to minimize the weather impact. Price scenario for sugar, ethanol and energy continued to improve as the market factored in the impact of the frost and of the dry weather in Center-South Brazil. 3Q21's financial results were positively impacted by (i) a $36.0 million year-over-year increase in net sales mainly driven by an increase in the price of all three products, coupled with (ii) our strategy of extracting the highest value per ton crushed by maximizing production of the product with the highest marginal contribution (55% of total TRS produced was diverted to ethanol, especially anhydrous ethanol); (iii) our strategy of increasing energy production to capture high spot prices; and (iv) a $20.0 million year-over-year gain in the mark-to-market of our harvested cane led by an increase in Consecana prices of 67.0%. These positive effects were partially offset by a $25.2 million increase in cost mostly explained by (i) an increase in harvested area; (ii) an increase in the price of fuel and lubricants among other inputs and (iii) higher purchased volume of third party cane, bagasse and wood chips. During the quarter we sold 255.8 thousand CBios at an average price of 46 BRL/CBio (approximately $8.7/CBio). End of period stocks amounted to $135.1 million, marking a 2.3x year-over-year increase, led by our commercial strategy to carry stocks towards year end in order to benefit from higher expected prices.

On a year-to-date basis, Adjusted EBITDA reached $269.8 million, 56.2% higher compared to the same period of last year. Higher results were explained by (i) a 60.0% increase in net sales driven by higher average selling prices measured in U.S. dollars for all three products and higher selling volume of ethanol and energy; (ii) a 1.1 million ton increase in crushing volume; coupled with (iii) a $39.8 million gain derived from the mark-to-market of our sugarcane, mainly related to harvested cane (realized margin). This was partially offset by an increase in costs combined with a $23.4 million loss in our commodity hedge position and by a $9.4 million increase in selling expenses in line with the increase in sales.

Adjusted EBITDA in the Farming and Land Transformation businesses stood at $24.8 million in 3Q21 and at $113.4 million in 9M21 marking an year-over-year increase of 19.9% and 32.6%, respectively. Solely focusing on the Farming business, results stood at $23.9 million in 3Q21 and $107.8 million in 9M21, marking a year-over-year increase of 30.6% and 55.7%, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA in our Crops segment was $13.7 million in 3Q21, $7.9 million higher compared to the same period of last year. This was explained by (i) an increase in average selling prices ($127/Mt increase
2

in the case of soybean and $71/Mt in the case of corn), coupled with a year-over-year gain in the mark-to-market of our biological asset on account of an increase in hectares, yield and prices. This was partially offset mostly by an increase in costs driven by inflation of the Argentine Peso being higher than currency depreciation - inflation in U.S. dollar terms -. Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $47.9 million, 89.5% or $22.6 million higher compared to 9M20 also mostly explained by a year-over-year gain in the mark-to-market of our biological asset on account of an increase in prices. End of period stocks were 2.3x higher than in 9M20 amounting to over $50 million mainly as a consequence of our commercial strategy to carry stock in order to benefit from higher expected prices.

Adjusted EBITDA in the Rice business reached $2.8 million during 3Q21 marking a 54.2% decrease compared to 3Q20 as a consequence of higher costs, in particular logistic costs, driven by inflation in U.S. dollar terms. However, during 9M21 Adjusted EBITDA stood at $40.7 million, 37.9% or $11.2 million higher than during 9M20. The positive financial performance was mostly explained by an increase in yields (record high of 7.8 Mt/Ha), area and prices, which led to a year-over-year gain in the value of our biological asset and agricultural produce. This was mostly captured during the first quarter of the year which is when the crop is harvested. We successfully achieved these results due to our continuous focus on (i) productivity as the key variable to minimize costs per ton, (ii) rice quality to improve industrial efficiencies; and (iii) efficiency throughout the value chain by focusing on synergies at every level. Improvements achieved were possible as a result of the investments we made at the farm and industry level and improvements to the consolidation and maturity of our operational teams.

The Dairy business generated an Adjusted EBITDA of $7.2 million during 3Q21 and $19.3 million during 9M21, an increase of 13.5% and 32.6% compared to the same period of last year, respectively. In both cases, higher results were explained by (i) an increase in gross sales coupled with (ii) our continuous focus on achieving efficiencies in our vertically integrated operations and increasing our productivity levels in every stage of the value chain. Results were partially offset by the higher cost of feed on account of higher commodity prices and the higher cost of raw milk. Once (i) interest expenses and (ii) the foreign exchange loss related to the financial debt are taken into account, the year-to-date result of the Dairy business decreased to negative $10.2 million.

Net Income amounted to $37.0 million during 3Q21 and to $72.0 million during 9M21, marking a year-over-year gain of $16.7 million and $118.2 million, respectively. This was mostly explained by the year-over-year increase in Adjusted EBITDA generation.

Adjusted Net Income in 3Q21 reached $59.2 million, $21.3 million higher than in 3Q20. Adjusted Net Income excludes, (i) any non-cash result derived from bilateral exchange variations; (ii) any revaluation resulting from the hectares held as investment property; (iii) any inflation accounting result; and includes (iv) any gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying

asset is farmland (the latter is already included in Adj. EBITDA). We believe Adjusted Net Income is a more appropriate metric to reflect the Company´s performance.

Remarks

Distribution policy

Adecoagro announces the implementation of a distribution policy as of January 1, 2022. The Company intends to distribute to shareholders annually a minimum of 40% of the Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations(1) generated during the previous year.

The Distribution Policy shall consist of a minimum cash dividend payable on the Company’s outstanding common stock in the aggregate amount of $30 million per year, in addition to share repurchases under the Company’s existing share repurchase program from time to time as deemed appropriate.

Dividend payments are intended to be made in two installments in May and November of each year.

Any dividend distribution is subject to the conditions of applicable law and approval of Adecoagro´s shareholders.

Further details of our distribution policy will be communicated in our 4Q21 Earnings Release report.

(1) We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations as (i) net cash generated from operating activities net of the combined effect of the application of IAS 29 and IAS 21 less (ii) net cash used in investing activities net of the combined effect of the application of IAS 29 and IAS 21, less (iii) interest paid net of the combined effect of the application of IAS 29 and IAS 21 to the Argentine operations, plus (iv) proceeds from the sale of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries; less (v) lease payments; less (vi) dividends paid to non-controlling interest plus (vii) expansion capital expenditures.


Share repurchase program update

Adecoagro is generating positive cash flow in a structural way and, as stated in past releases, cash distribution is a priority for capital allocation. As previously communicated, the preferred vehicle to distribute cash to shareholders during 2021 has been share repurchases under our buyback program. Throughout the year we effectively completed our 2020/21 buyback program by repurchasing 5% of our outstanding shares, and have since started repurchasing shares under our 2021/22 program. In this line, during the first ten months of the year we have purchased over 6 million shares at an average price of $9.21 per share, totaling $56.9 million. Going forward we expect to continue repurchasing shares, in line with our commitment to generate long term value for our shareholders.

Independent farmland appraisal report

As of September 30, 2021, Cushman & Wakefield (C&W) updated its independent appraisal of Adecoagro's farmland. Adecoagro held 240,243 hectares valued by C&W at $759.6 million. Net of minority interests, Adecoagro's land portfolio consists of 219,850 hectares valued at $709.8 million. On a comparable basis, current valuation of our land portfolio represents a year-over-year increase of 2.4%.

Anhydrous ethanol production

In line with our strategy to maximize production of the product with the highest marginal contribution, 63.1% of total ethanol production during 3Q21 was anhydrous ethanol. This enabled us to capture high market prices during the quarter as anhydrous ethanol traded at a sugar equivalent price of 21.2 cts/lb on average, marking a 13.2% premium to sugar and a 16.0% premium to hydrous ethanol. The 37.7% increase in anhydrous ethanol production compared to 3Q20 was possible thanks to (i) our open hedge position which provided us with the necessary flexibility as sugar commitments were low; and to (ii) the inauguration of our molecular sieve in Ivinhema which increased by 50% our dehydration capacity. This project entailed a minor investment of approximately $4.0 million, had an internal rate of return of over 150%, and a payback period of less than one year. The increase in our dehydration capacity serves as a commercial tool, enhances the efficiency and sustainability of our operations and heightens our production flexibility. Combined with our high ethanol storage capacity, it enables us to carry-over stocks and places us in a solid position to continue to benefit from higher expected prices. In this line, we were able to profit from anhydrous prices trading at a 10-year-high by beginning of 4Q21, capturing prices over 24.0 cts/lb.

Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA reached $113.4 million during 9M21, marking an increase of 32.6% or $27.9 million compared to 9M20. The increase in financial performance both during the quarter as well as during the nine month period, was fully explained by the Farming business which marked an year-over-year increase of $5.6 million and $38.5 million, respectively. The Land Transformation business had little gain as no farm sales were conducted during the year, as opposed to 9M20.

Adjusted EBITDA in our Crops segment was $13.7 million in 3Q21, $7.9 million higher compared to the same period of last year. This was explained by an increase in gross sales led by higher average selling prices, coupled with a year-over-year gain of $8.4 million in the mark-to-market of our biological asset on account of an increase in hectares, yield and prices. This was partially offset by (i) an increase in costs driven by inflation of the Argentine Peso being higher than currency depreciation - inflation in U.S. dollar terms -; (ii) an increase in selling expenses of $1.9 million due to an increase in logistic costs; and (iii) a net loss of $1.0 million in the mark-to-market of our inventories on account of inflation in U.S. dollar terms. Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $47.9 million, 89.5% or $22.6 million higher compared to 9M20. This was mainly explained by (i) a year-over-year gain of $22.9 million in the mark-to-market of our biological asset on account of an increase in prices. End of period stocks were 2.3x higher than in 9M20 amounting to over $50 million mostly as a consequence of our commercial strategy to carry stock in order to benefit from higher expected prices.

Adjusted EBITDA in the Rice business reached $2.8 million during 3Q21 marking a 54.2% decrease compared to 3Q20 as a consequence of higher costs, in particular logistic costs, driven by inflation in U.S. dollar terms. However, during 9M21 Adjusted EBITDA stood at $40.7 million, 37.9% or $11.2 million higher than during 9M21. The positive financial performance was mostly explained by an increase in yields which stood at 7.8 Tn/Ha, area and prices which led to a year-over-year increase in the value of our biological asset and agricultural produce of $18.2 million during 9M21. This was mostly captured during the first quarter of the year which is when the crop is harvested. We successfully achieved these results due to our continuous focus on (i) productivity as the key variable to minimize costs per ton, (ii) rice quality to improve industrial efficiencies; and (iii) efficiency throughout the value chain by focusing on synergies at every level. Improvements achieved were possible as a result of the investments we made at the farm and industry level and improvements to the consolidation and maturity of our operational teams.

The Dairy business generated an Adjusted EBITDA of $7.2 million during 3Q21 and $19.3 million during 9M21, an increase of 13.5% and 32.6% compared to the same period of last year, respectively. In both cases, the higher results were explained by (i) an increase in gross sales driven both by an increase in sales volume and an increase in average prices as we increased the mix of higher value added products; and (ii) our continuous focus on achieving efficiencies in our vertically integrated operations and increasing our productivity levels in every stage of the value chain. Results were partially offset by (i) the higher cost of feed on account of higher commodity prices; (ii) higher cost of raw milk and (iii) higher logistic costs, accentuated by an inflation in dollar terms.

However, once (i) interest expenses and (ii) the foreign exchange loss related to the financial debt are taken into account, the year-to-date result of the Dairy business decreased to negative $10.2 million.

Gross sales in our Crops segment amounted to $76.1 million during 3Q21, 39.3% higher compared to the same period of last year. This was mostly explained by a 37.7% increase in average selling prices, driven by an increase in commodity prices. This enabled us to capture an additional $127/Mt in the case of soybean and $71/Mt in the case of corn. The increase in average price also included an 8.1% increase in peanut prices. In the case of sunflower, we did capture higher prices compared to 3Q20 but average prices decreased 21.5% due to a change in mix. In order to capture an additional revenue stream and cater to new markets, we increased our selling volume by producing bakery sunflower in addition to confectionary sunflower.
On a nine month basis gross sales in our Crops segment totaled $163.0 million, 16.2% higher compared to 9M20 driven by a 39.3% increase in average selling prices which fully offset the 16.6% reduction in selling volumes. During 9M21 the volume of marketable inventories was 2.3x higher than in 9M20 mostly as a consequence of our commercial strategy to carry stock in order to benefit from higher expected prices.
Adjusted EBITDA in our Crops segment was $13.7 million in 3Q21, $7.9 million or 135.7% higher compared to the same period of last year. This was explained by an increase in gross sales coupled with a year-over-year gain of $8.4 million in the mark-to-market of our biological asset, mainly late corn, on account of an increase in hectares, yield and prices. This was partially offset by (i) an increase in costs driven by inflation of the Argentine Peso being higher than currency depreciation - inflation in U.S. dollar terms -; (ii) an increase in selling expenses of $1.9 million due to an increase in logistic costs; and (iii) a net loss of $1.0 million in the mark-to-market of our inventories on account of inflation in U.S. dollar terms.

Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $47.9 million, 89.5% or $22.6 million higher compared to 9M20. This was mainly explained by (i) a year-over-year gain of $22.9 million in the mark-to-market of our biological asset on account of an increase in prices coupled with (ii) an year-over-year gain of $8.7 million in our commodity hedge position mainly explained by a loss in corn hedges in 1Q20. This was partially offset by an inflation in U.S. dollar terms which generated a loss in the the mark-to-market of our inventories.

The table below shows the gains and losses from crop production generated during the first nine months of 2021. A total of 169,429 hectares were harvested in the 2020/21 crop season while for the 2021/22 crop season 62,413 hectares have been planted. As of September 30, 2021, total Changes in Fair Value, which reflect the margin of both the crops that have already been harvested and the expected margin of those that are still on the ground with significant biological growth, was $52.8 million, compared to $29.6 million generated during the same period of last year. The main driver for the increase in margins was the increase in commodity prices, especially soybean and corn.

Gross sales during 3Q21 reached $31.7 million, $5.1 million or 19.2% higher compared to the same period of last year. This was mainly explained by a 17.5% increase in selling volume driven by higher sales into the export market, coupled with an 8.3% increase in average selling prices. To diversify our product portfolio we continuously work on improving our product genetics and producing enhanced seeds at our own seed unit, taking into consideration customers’ needs, our own mills efficiencies, and adaptability to the farm. This enables us to capture premiums in prices which boost our average selling prices. We have been able to enter into new markets and increase our mix of higher value added products by increasing our product offering of variety rice and tailor-made products traceable from the farm to the fork.

On a nine month basis gross sales totaled $90.5 million, $6.0 million or 7.1% higher compared to 9M20. This was fully explained by an increase of $80/Mt in average selling prices, partially offset by a 7.6% reduction in selling volumes. End of period stocks increased 162.3% compared to the previous year fully explained by the pace of large shipments. The increase in marketable inventories will be offset during the last quarter of the year when more shipments are expected to depart.

Adjusted EBITDA reached $2.8 million during 3Q21 marking a 54.2% decrease compared to 3Q20 as a consequence of higher costs, in particular logistic costs, driven by inflation in U.S. dollar terms. Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA stood at $40.7 million, 37.9% or $11.2 million higher than during 9M21.The positive financial

performance was mostly explained by an increase in yields, area and prices which led to a year-over-year increase in the value of our biological asset and agricultural produce of $18.2 million during 9M21. This was mostly captured during the first quarter of the year which is when the crop is in its growth stage and is harvested.

We achieved these results due to our continuous focus on (i) productivity as the key variable to minimize costs per ton, (ii) rice quality to improve industrial efficiencies; and (iii) efficiency throughout the value chain by focusing on synergies at every level. Improvements achieved were possible as a result of the investments we have done at the farm and industry level, and of the consolidation and experience of our operational teams. During the 20/21 campaign, yields stood at 7.8 Tn/Ha, marking a record high and thus allowing us to reduce costs per ton. The drivers of these better results are, among others (i) the implementation of zero level technology which reduces water consumption, increases yields by providing better germination, uniform irrigation and lower losses during harvest; (ii) the increasing use of our own machinery for planting and harvesting activities which increases efficiencies compared to the use of third parties; and (iii) the installment of an on-site dryer at Oscuro which makes our grain storage and handling more efficient, reduces transportation costs, and allows us to increase rice quality through optimal harvest timing. In addition to this, we continuously work on increasing conversion factors and enhancing efficiencies. Investments such as the construction of a parboil plant, allowed us to increase our processing volume and produce a higher value added product demanded both in the domestic and export market.

During 3Q21 milk production at the farm level reached 45.3 million liters, 6.6 million liters or 16.9% higher compared to the same period of last year. This increase was mainly explained by the 18.3% increase in our dairy cow herd which reached an average of 13,346 milking cows during the quarter. Despite a minor reduction in productivity of 1.1%, it is important to highlight that this indicator remains at high levels even as we continue to grow our herd - Argentina's national average stands at approximately 20 liters per cow per day -. On a year-to-date basis, 126.4 million liters were produced in our four free-stalls, 20.5% higher year-over-year, driven by a 19.3% increase in cow herd coupled with a 1.4% increase in productivity.
At the industry, we processed 96.4 million liters of raw milk during the quarter, 15.6% higher compared to the same period of last year. Out of the total processed volume, approximately 37% was sourced from our dairy farm operations while the balance was sourced from local producers in nearby areas or supplied by partners to whom we provide tolling services. During the first nine months of 2021 we processed 255.6 million liters, marking a 17.6% increase year-over-year. We continue working on product developments to cater both to the domestic and export market.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $7.2 million during 3Q21 and $19.3 million during 9M21, an increase of 13.5% and 32.6% compared to the same period of last year, respectively. In both cases, the higher results were explained by (i) an increase in gross sales driven both by an increase in sales volume and an increase in average prices as we increased the mix of higher value added products; and (ii) our continuous focus on achieving efficiencies in our vertically integrated operations and increasing our productivity levels in every stage of the value chain. Results were partially offset by (i) the higher cost of feed (soy pellets and corn silage) on account of higher commodity prices; (ii) higher cost of raw milk and (iii) higher logistic costs, accentuated by an inflation in dollar terms.

During 3Q21 Adjusted EBITDA in our Land Transformation business registered a 63.3% reduction compared to 3Q20. Even though no farm sales were conducted during either quarters, Adjusted EBITDA reflected the mark-to-market of an account receivable corresponding to the latest sale of farms in Brazil, which tracks the evolution of soybean prices. The lower year-over-year result reflects the negative impact in the the mark-to-market of a reduction in soybean prices compared to 3Q20. From an accounting perspective, this figure is captured in the Other Operating Income line of the Land Transformation segment.
During 9M21 Adjusted EBITDA in our Land Transformation business amounted to $5.6 million as it reflected a gain in the mark-to-market of the account receivable, due to an increase in soybean prices compared to 9M20. However, year-over-year Adjusted EBITDA decreased 65.7% mainly explained by the fact that during 9M20 we conducted the sale of 811 hectares of Abolengo farm, located in Argentina's Humid Pampas compared to no farm sales during 9M21.

During the end of June and July a cold front hit most of Brazil's key productive areas. Low temperatures caused severe frost damage on sugarcane plantations in various regions including Sao Paulo and Paraná states, as well as Mato Grosso do Sul and Minas Gerais. This resulted in a negative impact on yields, which were already affected by the dry weather observed during the year in the Center-South region of Brazil. In light of this, market estimates of Brazil's sugarcane supply were cut in as much as 15% by some analysts. While expectations at the beginning of the year pointed at a crushing volume of 590 million tons of sugarcane, current expectations range between 520-510 million tons (previous harvest year finished at 608 million tons). Evidently, the reduction in supply generated a positive impact in the prices of all three products, as will be seen throughout this section of the report.

During 3Q21 our crushing volume amounted to 4.1 million tons, presenting a reduction of only 0.2 million tons compared to 3Q20, despite the negative impact of the frost in our productivity indicators. Indeed, sugarcane yields during the quarter were 27.2% lower compared to the same period of last year reaching 59 tons per hectare, while TRS content presented a 6.9% reduction. This was fully explained by the adverse weather conditions, as most of the harvested area was cane below optimal growth stage. However, we extracted the highest value per ton crushed by maximizing production of the product with the highest marginal contribution. It is expected that productivity will return to normal levels as sugarcane continues to recover with precipitations (during the quarter, rains in our Cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul were 71.9% lower compared to 3Q20 and 69.6% below the 10-year average).

The reduction in agricultural productivity indicators - resulting in a 32.2% reduction in TRS production per hectare - was partially offset by a 28.2% increase in harvested area, by a 15.5% increase in cane purchased from third parties and by leasing third party harvesters to accelerate harvesting activities. By doing so, the reduction in crushing volume during the quarter was only 5.2%.

Year-to-date crushing reached 9.7 million tons, 1.1 million tons or 13.0% higher year-over-year. This increase was explained by the good cane availability and earlier start of crushing activities during 1Q21 compared with 1Q20 and by the favorable weather during 2Q21. Sugarcane yields during 9M21 were 69 tons per hectare, 11.7% lower compared to 9M20 and TRS content was flat at 129 kg/ton.

In line with our strategy to maximize production of the product with the highest marginal contribution, during 3Q21 we diverted 55% of our TRS to ethanol to profit from higher relative prices. During the quarter hydrous and anhydrous ethanol traded at cts/lb 19.2 and cts/lb 21.2, 2.8% and 13.2% premium to sugar, respectively. To further take advantage of price premiums, 63% of our total ethanol production was anhydrous ethanol, compared to 41% during 3Q20. This was possible thanks to the recent incorporation of our molecular sieve in Ivinhema which increased our dehydration capacity in 50%. Total production of both ethanol and sugar was 11.2% and 7.3% lower compared to 3Q20, respectively. As previously mentioned, this was explained by the lower production of TRS but was more than offset by an increase in prices.

On a year-to-date basis production mix was in line with 9M20, standing at 58% ethanol and 42% sugar, while volumes produced were 14.4% and 13.6% higher respectively, favored by a strong production during the first six months of the year. In 2021 we maximized sugar production during 1Q21 to benefit from higher relative prices and switched to ethanol during 2Q21 and 3Q21. The opposite was observed in 2020 when we maximized ethanol during 1Q20, then switched to sugar as ethanol prices plummeted in light of the pandemic, and went back to maximizing ethanol in 3Q20. This high degree in flexibility constitutes one of our most important competitive advantages, since it allows us to make a more efficient use of our fixed assets and profit from higher relative prices.

Exported energy during the quarter totaled 263 thousand MWh, 4.0% higher compared to the same period of 2020. Due to the prolonged period of dry weather in the Center-South region of Brazil, the level of water in the reservoirs (used to generate hydroelectric energy) was low, resulting in a hike in spot prices. To profit from this situation we increased our energy production through the use of (i) own and third party bagasse, (ii) wood chips purchased from third parties, and (iii) sugarcane straw ("palhas") collected from the field. On a nine month basis energy exported amounted to 572 thousand MWh, 12.6% higher than in 9M20 and in line with the increase in crushing volume.

As of September 30, 2021, our sugarcane plantation consisted of 184,349 hectares, 5.5% higher compared to the same period of last year. Sugarcane planting continues to be a key strategy to supply our mills with quality raw material at low cost. During 3Q21, we planted a total of 5,469 hectares of sugarcane. Of this total area, 24% or 1,306 hectares were expansion areas planted to supply our growing crushing capacity and 76% or 4,163 hectares, were areas planted to renew old plantations with newer and high-yielding sugarcane, thus allowing us to maintain the productivity of our plantation.

(1) Net Sales are calculated as Gross Sales net of sales taxes.
Please see “Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures” starting on page 37 for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT to Profit/Loss.
(2) Net Sales in 9M21 include $9.4 million corresponding to the sale of 23.3 thousand tons of soybean planted as cover crop during the implementation of the agricultural technique known as meiosis. No soybean sales were registered in 3Q21. Meiosis is based on planting 2 lines called “mother lines” for every 8 lines left unplanted. Once the sugarcane in the mother lines grow and the cut is made, it is used as muda for the remaining 8 lines. As 20% of the sugarcane is planted first, it is 1 year older than the 80% balance, allowing for cover crops to be planted in the meantime. Planting harvestable cover crops results in lower sugarcane production costs, greater planting efficiency and the potential to monetize additional sales.
(3) The higher-than-normal EBITDA margin figure for 3Q21 is explained by the fact that it includes the farming margin captured by the harvest of cane (at a Consecana price 67% higher than in 3Q20) but the cost of final product does not include our carry over stock as it has not been sold yet (165.1 thousand tons of sugar and 185.6 thousand m3 of ethanol). Costs will flow to results once production is sold.
Net sales in 3Q21 reached $148.9 million, 31.9% higher compared to 3Q20. This increase was driven by the higher selling volumes of ethanol and energy and by the higher average selling prices of sugar, ethanol and energy (measured both in BRL as well as in U.S. dollars). On a year-to-date basis, net sales reached $378.1 million marking a 60.0% increase, mostly explained by the higher average selling prices of all three products and the higher selling volumes of ethanol and energy.

Adjusted EBITDA during 3Q21 was $138.1 million, $51.7 million or 59.8% higher compared to 3Q20. This was mainly explained by (i) a $36.0 million year-over-year increase in net sales coupled with (ii) a $20.0 million year-over-year gain in the mark-to-market of our harvested cane led by an increase in Consecana prices of 67.0% which fully offset the 5.2% reduction in volume. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was partially offset by a $25.2 million increase in cost mainly explained by (i) a 28.2% increase in harvested area to make up for the lower productivity of the cane which resulted in higher salaries, higher use of diesel and higher maintenance cost, among others, as well as by (ii) the higher purchased volume of third party cane, bagasse and wood chip.

During 9M21 adjusted EBITDA reached $269.8 million, 56.2% or $97.1 million higher than during the same period of last year. Higher results were explained by (i) a 60.0% increase in net sales, coupled with (ii) a $39.7 million gain derived from the mark-to-market of our sugarcane, mostly related to harvested cane. This was partially offset by an increase in cost combined with a $23.7 million loss in our commodity hedge position and a $8.8 million increase in selling expenses in line with the increase in sales. End of period stocks amounted to over $135 million, marking a 2.3x increase year-over-year, led by our commercial strategy to carry over stocks in order to benefit from higher expected prices.

As mentioned in our past release, we expected prices to continue to be accentuated in the upcoming months, as the market factored in (i) the impact of continuous dry weather observed in Center-South Brazil (a region responsible for over 80% of the country's sugarcane production) as well as (ii) the impact of the frost. In line with the reduction in Brazil's sugarcane supply and the earlier start of the interharvest period for most mills, we continue to see a constructive price scenario for our products. This is reflected in the increase in our carry-over stocks of both sugar and ethanol. We believe we are in a good position to continue to capture the increase in prices as we still have unhedged TRS for the 21/22 campaign in addition to 90% of sugar and 100% of ethanol production related to the 22/23 campaign.

Sugar sales during 3Q21 reached $46.6 million, 27.2% lower than during the same period of last year. This decrease was driven by a 50.7% decrease in selling volumes partially offset by a 47.8% increase in average prices which reached 17.2 ct/lb. There are two points worth highlighting (i) during 3Q20 we increased the volume of sugar sold as the market for ethanol was fairly illiquid and prices were low due to the pandemic; and (ii) due to our commercial strategy to carry over stocks in order to profit from higher expected prices, stocks of sugar in 3Q21 almost doubled 3Q20 (165.2 thousand tons compared to 87.4 thousand, respectively). On a nine month basis, sugar sales reached $143.3 million, led by a 48.7% increase in average selling prices which fully offset the 2.4% decrease in selling volume.

Net ethanol sales during 3Q21 amounted to $83.4 million, 2.2x higher year-over-year. This was mostly explained by a 92.7% increase in average selling prices measured in U.S. dollars, led by anhydrous ethanol.

During the quarter hydrous and anhydrous ethanol traded at cts/lb 19.2 and cts/lb 21.2, 2.8% and 13.2% premium to sugar, respectively. Despite the lower production of ethanol during the quarter and our aggressive carry over strategy (185.6 thousand m3), ethanol sales volume presented a 15.0% increase compared to 3Q20. This was fully explained by 2020's dynamics, namely the lockdown measures adopted in response to Covid-19 which negatively affected demand for fuels, resulting in a decrease in sales and a stock build up. This also explains why the volume of current inventories is only 8.7% higher than in 3Q20.

On a year-to-date basis ethanol sales were 69.6% higher than during 9M20. This was explained by a 49.3% increase in average selling prices and 13.6% increase in selling volumes.

During the quarter we sold 255.8 thousand CBios under the RenovaBio program at an average price of 46 BRL/CBio (approximately $8.7/CBio) which are registered under the Other Operating Income line. On an accumulated basis, we sold 367.9 thousand CBios during 2021 at 41.6 BRL/CBio (approximately $7.8/CBio).

In the case of energy, net sales in 3Q21 were $18.8 million, 68.3% higher compared to 3Q20. Selling volumes reached 319 thousand MWh, marking a 2.6% year-over-year increase and average selling prices were 64.0% higher than in 3Q20. Driven by the low levels of water in the reservoirs, energy spot prices increased and by increasing our energy production we were able to capture the upside in addition to engaging in high margin operations. Net sales during 9M21 were 37.7% higher year-over-year as a consequence of the increase in selling volume and average selling prices.

As shown in the table below, total production costs excluding depreciation and amortization reached 6.1 cents per pound during 3Q21, 57.3% higher year-over-year. The increase in costs is mostly explained by (i) a 28.2% increase in harvested area to compensate for the reduction in productivity, which resulted in an increase in salaries, fuel consumption and maintenance as well as an increase in cane depreciation in line with the increase in harvested area; (ii) an increase in agricultural partnership costs driven by an increase in Consecana prices; (iii) an increase in the amount of wood chips, bagasse and third party cane purchased; (iv) an increase in the costs of inputs; and (v) a 5.2% reduction in crushing volume which resulted in a lower dilution of fixed costs. On a nine month basis, total production costs are 25.4% higher than during the previous year mostly led by an increase in Consecana prices as well as by a reduction in the nominal depreciation of the Brazilian Real from 39.9% in 9M20 to 4.7% in 9M21.

Total Changes in Fair Value of Unharvested Biological Assets (what is currently growing on the fields and will be harvested during the next 12 months) represented a year-over-year loss of $17.2 million during 3Q21. This decrease is attributed to (i) the frost that hit Brazil which negatively affected expected yields and (ii) the increase in costs. These effects were partially offset by an increase in expected prices.

In both cases, the year-over-year variation is explained by the effect of foreign exchange.
The lines "Fx Net" and "Cash Flow Hedge - Transfer from Equity" reflect the impact of foreign exchange variations on our dollar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The $34.1 million loss in 9M21 is explained by our negative net foreign currency position. However, year-over-year it presents a $114.7 million gain explained by a reduction in the nominal depreciation of the Brazilian Real from 39.9% during 9M20 to 4.7% during 9M21 and by a reduction in the nominal depreciation of the Argentine Peso from 27.2% in 9M20 to 17.3% in 9M21. In the case of 3Q21 the $27.6 million loss is also explained by our negative net foreign currency position. In this case, it presents a year-over-year loss of $4.9 million driven by an increase in the nominal depreciation of the Brazilian Real from 3.0% during 3Q20 to 8.7% during 3Q21, partially offset by a reduction in the nominal depreciation of the Argentine Peso from 8.1% in 3Q20 to 3.2% in 3Q21.These results are non-cash in nature and do not affect the net worth of the Company in U.S. dollars.

From a seasonality point of view, the second half of the year has lower working capital requirements, since most of our planting and harvesting costs have already been incurred during the first and second quarter. At the same time, we start selling and collecting income from most of our products.

Adecoagro´s net debt as of September 30, 2021 reached $724.9 million, $19.4 million or 2.6% lower compared to 2Q21. This was explained by the combined effect of a 1.6% reduction in gross debt and a 2.5% increase in our cash position as a consequence of greater collections and lower working capital requirements. However, it is worth highlighting that in line with our commercial strategy to carry stocks to benefit from higher expected prices, marketable inventories in 3Q21 amounted to $213.0 million, $66.0 million or 44.9% higher compared to 2Q21.

On a year-over-year basis, net debt in 3Q21 increased by 1.9% compared to the same period of last year. The 1.1% reduction in gross debt was fully offset by an 11.2% decrease in our cash position. This reduction in our cash position was mostly explained by an increase in marketable inventories of $124.0 million compared to the same period of last year.

Our Net Debt ratio (Net Debt / EBITDA) as of September 30, 2021 reached 1.56x, continuing the downward trend compared to both 2Q21 and 3Q20, marking a reduction of 14.1% and 31.9%, respectively. This was mostly explained by higher adjusted EBITDA during the last twelve months. We believe that our balance sheet
30

is in a healthy position based not only on the adequate overall debt levels but also on the terms of our indebtedness, most of which is long-run debt.

The Company has full capacity to repay short term debt with its cash balances, as shown by our Liquidity ratio above 1.0x. As of September 30, 2021, our Liquidity ratio (Cash & Equivalents + Marketable Inventories / Short Term Debt) reached 2.00x, 8.9% above 2Q21's ratio of 1.84x and 33.8% higher than 3Q20's ratio of 1.49x.

Maintenance capex increased by 3.0x mainly related to the impact of the adverse weather conditions on our sugarcane plantation. In this regard, we incurred in additional replanting costs as well as in the purchase of five two-line harvesters and three one-line harvesters to accelerate harvesting activities and thus prevent cane from further deteriorating. Expansion capex increased by 43.2% as it includes, among others, (i) a portion of the investment in the peneira molecular to increase our capacity to dehydrate ethanol, and (ii) investments in the biogas project which, once fully operative, will produce enough biomethane to replace our whole diesel consumption. Year-to-date capital expenditure was 17.2% higher than in 9M20 mostly driven by the third quarter dynamics.

Farming & Land Transformation businesses accounted for 14.2%, or $8.0 million of total capex in 3Q21, presenting a year-over-year increase of 89.8%. This increase is mainly explained by the acquisition and replacement of vehicles and machinery, minor investments in expanding the capacity of one of our rice handling and conditioning facilities and improvements in our peanut facility's finished product storage, among others. Year-to-date total capex in the Farming & Land Transformation businesses increased by 76.0% compared to 9M20 also explained by minor investments to improve the efficiency and sustainability of our operations.

3Q21 Market Highlights

After a sharp increase in August, sugar price found an equilibrium throughout the quarter. Indian producers started to sell their raw sugar for future delivery at the high end of the price range, while destination countries had also priced when market presented an opportunity to do so. Poor Brazilian crop and forecasted implications for 2022 remains the main market driver. The trade flow looks tight for the coming months and any additional shock in supply has a potential to increase prices. During 3Q21 prices were, on average, 11% higher than 2Q21 and 52% higher than in 3Q20, according to ICE futures (Sugar #11). Looking forward, the market will remain supported by the need for Indian exports and concerns about Brazil's 2022 crop, as summer rains will be especially important. Sugar price will also be underpinned by the need to trade at an attractive premium over ethanol parity, which is expected to remain firm.

Ethanol market during 3Q21 was marked by further price increases. The rise continues to reflect the tightness in supply caused by a poor crop and recovering fuel demand. According to the ESALQ index, hydrous and anhydrous prices increased 11% and 13%, respectively, compared to the previous quarter. On a year-over-year basis, hydrous and anhydrous prices posted a substantial improvement of 81% and 83%, respectively. The vast majority of mills will finish the current harvest earlier than usual, which means lower ethanol stocks for the intercrop period. Price shall pursuit a level that reflects not only the inventory levels but also the improvement in the international fuel market. As a result, we expect prices to remain firm at least until 2Q22. Looking ahead to 2022, with only a modest recovery in the crop expected in 22/23, it seems that ethanol will provide a firm support for sugar prices and the competition between both products for the TRS should be strong.

Under Brazil's RenovaBio program, approximately 10.7 million CBios were sold during 3Q21 to fuel distributors. On a year-to-date basis, volume sold amounted to 20.9 million CBios at an average price of 34.2 BRL/CBio (approximately $6.4/CBio). CBios prices are still in sharp contrast with EU credits which stand at $69.2/Mt of carbon and Californian credits at $165/Mt.

Energy spot prices in the southeast region of Brazil during 3Q21 were 604% higher than during the same period of last year. During July, August and September, energy prices were 583.9 BRL/MWh, 583.9 BRL/MWh and 577.3 BRL/MWh, respectively. In October the PLD (Preço de Liquidação das Diferenças or settlement price for differences) decreased to levels of 200.0 BRL/MWh (ceiling price) as a result of the recent rains. Consumption showed an increase of 6.9% when compared to last year, according to CCEE. The level of the southeast reservoirs was 17% by the end of September, 14% lower than the same period of 2020.

During 3Q21, soybean prices traded 10% lower at CBOT compared to 2Q21 while corn prices traded 9% lower. Weaker prices were driven by (i) an increase in USA's ending stocks compared to previous estimations as production was confirmed to be higher than last year, and (ii) a lower expected impact from La Niña in Brazil and Argentina. Weaker dollar and firm energy prices prevented the market from dropping further. Over this period, funds' net positions remained net long on corn and soybean. Prices at the local market traded 5% higher on soybean and 3% higher on corn compared to 2Q21. The market was supported by an increase in soybean crushing of 14% compared to last year and an increase in corn exports of 11% compared to last year.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the following non-IFRS financial measures in this press release:
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBIT
Adjusted EBITDA margin
Net Debt
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted Net Income

In this section, we provide an explanation and a reconciliation of each of our non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS measures. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period.
There are limitations associated with the use of non-IFRS financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, many of the adjustments to our IFRS financial measures reflect the exclusion of items, such as depreciation and amortization, changes in fair value and the related income tax effects of the aforementioned exclusions and exchange differences generated by the net liability monetary position in USD in the countries where the functional currency is the local currency, that are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. In addition, these measures may be different from non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT & Adjusted EBITDA margin
Our Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA equals the sum of our Adjusted Segment EBITDA for each of our operating segments. We define “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA” as (i) consolidated net profit (loss) for the year, as applicable, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, and amortization of intangible assets, net gain from fair value adjustments of investment property land, foreign exchange gains or losses, other net financial results; (ii) adjusted by those items, that do not impact profit and loss, but are recorded directly in shareholders' equity, including (a) the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, reflected under the line item: "Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries” and (b) the net increase in value of sold
37

farmland, which has been recognized in either revaluation surplus of retained earnings which is reflected in the Shareholders’ equity under the line item “Reverse of revaluation surplus derived from the disposals of assets; and (iv) net of the combined effect of the application of IAS 29 and IAS 21 from the Argentine operations included in profit from operations. (See Item 5. “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - A. Operating Results - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018)
We define “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” for each of our operating segments as (i) the segment’s share of consolidated profit (loss) from operations before financing and taxation as per segment information for the year, as applicable, before depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets; and (ii) adjusted by those items, that do not impact profit and loss, but are recorded directly in shareholders' equity, including (a) the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, reflected under the line item: "Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries” and (b) the net increase in value of sold farmland, which has been recognized in either revaluation surplus of retained earnings which is reflected in the Shareholders’ equity under the line item “Reverse of revaluation surplus derived from the disposals of assets;. and (iv) net of the combined effect of the application of IAS 29 and IAS 21 from the Argentine operations included in profit from operations.
We believe that Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are important measures of operating performance for our company and each operating segment, respectively, because they allow investors and others to evaluate and compare our consolidated operating results and to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our segments, respectively, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation of property plan and equipment and amortization of intangible assets), tax consequences (income taxes), foreign exchange gains or losses and other financial results. In addition, by including the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, investors can also evaluate the full value and returns generated by our land transformation activities. Other companies may calculate Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA differently, and therefore our Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated net profit (loss), cash flows from operating activities, segment’s profit from operations before financing and taxation and other measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Items excluded from Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are significant and necessary components to the operations of our business, and, therefore, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA should only be used as a supplemental measure of our company’s operating performance, and of each of our operating segments, respectively. We also believe Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are useful for securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate the financial performance of our company and other companies in the agricultural industry. These non-IFRS measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in either our statements of income or segment information.

Reconciliation of both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT starts on page 29.

Net Debt & Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA
Net debt is defined as the sum of long- and short-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. This measure is widely used by management and investment analysts and we believe it shows the financial strength of the Company
Management is consistently tracking our leverage position and our ability to repay and service our debt obligations over time. We have therefore set a leverage ratio target that is measured by net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA.
We believe that this metric provides useful information to investors because management uses it to manage our debt-equity ratio in order to promote access to debt financing instruments in the capital markets and our ability to meet scheduled debt service obligations.

Adjusted Net Income
We define Adjusted Net Income as (i) Profit/ (Loss) of the period/year before net gain from fair value adjustments of investment property land; plus (ii) any non-cash finance costs resulting from foreign exchange gain/losses for such period, which are composed by both Exchange Differences and Cash Flow Hedge Transfer from Equity, included in Financial Results, net, in our statement of income; net of the related income tax effects, plus (iii) gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, which are reflected in our Shareholders Equity under the line item. “Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries”, plus (iv) the reversal of the aforementioned income tax effect, plus (v) any inflation accounting effect; plus (vi) the net increase in value of sold farmland, which has been recognized in either Revaluation surplus or Retained earnings.
We believe that Adjusted Net Income is an important measure of performance for our company allowing investors to properly assess the impact of the results of our operations in our Equity. In effect, results arising from the revaluation effect of our net monetary position held in foreign currency in the countries where our functional currency is the local currency do not affect the Equity of the Company, when measured in foreign / reporting currency. Conversely, the tax effect resulting from the aforementioned revaluation effect does impact
39

the Equity of the Company, since it reduces/increases the income tax to be paid in each country; which is why we decided to add back the income tax effect to the Adjusted Net Income considering this tax effect.
In addition, by including the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, investors can also include the full value and returns generated by our land transformation activities.
Other companies may calculate Adjusted Net Income differently, and therefore our Adjusted Net Income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Net Income is not a measures of financial performance under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated net profit (loss). This non-IFRS measure should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in our financial statements.
