Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(All amounts in millions of Argentine pesos, except otherwise indicated)
 
 
1.
The Group’s business and general information
 
Cresud was founded in 1936 as a subsidiary of Credit Foncier, a Belgian company primarily engaged in providing rural and urban loans in Argentina and administering real estate holdings foreclosed by Credit Foncier. Credit Foncier was liquidated in 1959, and as part of such liquidation, the shares of Cresud were distributed to Credit Foncier’s shareholders. From the 1960s through the end of the 1970s, the business of Cresud shifted exclusively to agricultural activities.
 
In 2002, Cresud acquired a 19.85% interest in IRSA, a real estate company related to certain shareholders of Cresud. In 2009, Cresud increased its ownership percentage in IRSA to 55.64% and IRSA became Cresud’s direct principal subsidiary.
 
Cresud and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to hereinafter as the Group.
 
Main shareholders´ of the Company are jointly Inversiones Financieras del Sur S.A., Agroinvestment S.A and Consultores Venture Capital Uruguay S.A. This entities are companies incorporated in Uruguay and belong to the same controlling group and the ultimate beneficiary is Eduardo S. Elsztain.
 
Economic context in which the Group operated
 
The Group operated in an economic context whose main variables have shown strong volatility. The main ones are detailed below:
 
The country ended the year 2023 with a 1.4% decrease in activity, according to preliminary data from INDEC.
Accumulated inflation between January 1st and December 31, 2023 reached 211% (CPI).
Between these dates, the Argentine peso depreciated nominally against the US dollar, from ARS 180 to ARS 805 per dollar at the end of the period.
The monetary authority maintained exchange restrictions established in previous years throughout 2023 to contain the demand for dollars. These restrictions did not prevent meeting all the company's financial and contractual maturities.
 
On December 10, 2023 a new government took office in Argentina with plans to carry out extensive reforms of laws and regulations.
 
Among its first measures, the new government issued a Decree of Necessity and Urgency (DNU, by its Spanish acronym) modifying several laws, introducing reforms in the labor market, customs code, and the status of public companies, among others. Although the DNU must be discussed and ratified by at least one chamber of the National Congress, its provisions have been partially in force since December 29, 2023, considering a series of judicial actions that have granted the suspension of certain modifications.
 
Additionally, the National Congress was called to extraordinary sessions to consider a series of legislative initiatives, including an “Omnibus Law”.
 
The regulatory and legislative situation as of December 31, 2023, does not substantially differ from that established by the previous government. The company's financial statements should be read considering these circumstances.
 
The Board of Directors has approved these Financial Statements for issuance on February 8, 2024.
 
As of December 31, 2023, the Group operates in two major business lines: (i) agricultural business and (ii) urban property and investment business.

2.
Summary of significant accounting policies
 
2.1.
Basis of preparation
 
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting” and should therefore be read in conjunction with the Group's annual Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2023 prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Also, these financial statements include additional information required by Law No. 19,550 and / or regulations of the CNV. Such information is included in the notes to these financial statements, as accepted by IFRS Accounting Standards.
 
These financial statements for the interim periods of six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 have not been audited. Management considers that they include all the necessary adjustments to fairly present the results of each period. Intermediate period results do not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Group's results for the entire fiscal years.
 
IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is one of a hyperinflationary economy be expressed in terms of the current unit of measurement at the closing date of the reporting period, regardless of whether they are based on the historical cost method or the current cost method. To do so, in general terms, the inflation produced from the date of acquisition or from the revaluation date, as applicable, must be calculated by non-monetary items. This requirement also includes the comparative information of the financial statements.
 
In order to conclude on whether an economy is categorized as highly inflationary in the terms of IAS 29, the standard details a series of factors to be considered, including the existence of an accumulated inflation rate in three years that approximates or exceeds 100%. Accumulated inflation in Argentina in three years is over 100%. For that reason, in accordance with IAS 29, Argentina must be considered a country with a highly inflationary economy starting July 1, 2018.
 
In relation to the inflation index to be used and in accordance with Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (FACPCE) Resolution No. 539/18, it is determined based on the Wholesale Price Index (IPIM) until 2016, considering the average variation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires for the months of November and December 2015, because during those two months there were no national IPIM measurements. Then, from January 2017, the National Consumer Price Index (National CPI) is considered.
 
The table below presents the index for the period between the last fiscal year and as of December 31, 2023, and for the twelve month period ending on the same date, according to official statistics (INDEC) and following the guidelines described in Resolution 539/18.
 
 
 
As of December 31, 2023 (six months)
 
 
As of December 31, 2023 (twelve months)
 
Price variation
  107%
  211%
 
As a consequence of the aforementioned, these financial statements as of December 31, 2023 were restated in accordance with IAS 29.
 
2.2
Accounting policies
 
The accounting policies applied in the presentation of these Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Annual Financial Statements, as described in Note 2 to those Financial Statements.
 
2.3
Comparability of information
 
Balance items as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 presented in these Financial Statements for comparative purposes arise from the financial statements as of and for such period, restated in accordance with IAS 29 (See Note 2.1). Certain items from prior periods have been reclassified for consistency purposes.

Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria
 
 
2.4
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of Financial Statements at a certain date requires Management to make estimations and evaluations affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recorded during the period. Actual results might differ from the estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these financial statements. In the preparation of these financial statements, the significant judgments made by Management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the main sources of uncertainty were the same as the ones applied by the Group in the preparation of the Annual Financial Statements described in Note 3 to those Financial Statements.
 
3.
Seasonal effects on operations
 
Agricultural business
 
Some of the Group’s businesses are more affected by seasonal effects than others. The operations of the Group’s agricultural business are subject to seasonal effects. The harvests and sale of grains in Argentina generally take place each year since June in the case of corn and soybean since March, since October in the case of wheat, and since December in the case of sunflower. In Brazil, the harvest and sale of soybean take place since February, and in the case of corn weather conditions make it possible to have two seasons, therefore the harvest take place between March and July. In Bolivia, weather conditions also make it possible to have two soybean, corn and sorghum seasons and, therefore, these crops are harvested in July and May, whereas wheat is harvested in August and September, respectively. In the case of sugarcane, harvest and sale take place between April and November of each year. Other segments of the agricultural business, such as beef cattle production tend to be more stable. However, beef cattle production is generally larger during the second quarter, when conditions are more favorable. As a result, there may be material fluctuations in the agricultural business results across quarters.
 
Urban properties and investments business
 
The operations of the Group’s shopping malls are subject to seasonal effects, which affect the level of sales recorded by lessees. During summertime in Argentina (January and February), the lessees of shopping malls experience the lowest sales levels in comparison with the winter holidays (July) and Christmas and year-end holidays celebrated in December, when they tend to record peaks of sales. Apparel stores generally change their collections during the spring and the fall, which impacts positively on shopping malls sales. Sale discounts at the end of each season also affect the business. As a consequence, for shopping mall operations, a higher level of business activity is expected in the period ranging between July and December, compared to the period between January and June.
 
4.
Acquisitions and disposals
 
Significant acquisitions and disposals for the six-month period ended December 31, 2023 are detailed below. Significant acquisitions and disposals for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, are detailed in Note 4 to the Annual Financial Statements.

(i)
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2023, the net gain from fair value adjustment of investment properties was ARS 139,883. The net impact of the values in pesos of our properties was mainly a consequence of the change in macroeconomic conditions:
(a)
loss of ARS 8,128 as a consequence of the variation in the projected income growth rate increase and the conversion to dollars of the projected cash flow in pesos according to the exchange rate estimates used in the cash flow from shopping malls.
(b)
positive impact of ARS 355,318 resulting from the conversion into pesos of the value of the shopping malls in dollars based on the exchange rate at the end of the period.
(c)
an increase of 30 basis points in the discount rate used for cash flows and an increase of 15 basis points in the discount rate used for perpetuity, mainly due to an increase in the country-risk rate component and risk-free rate of the WACC discount rate used to discount the cash flow, which led to a decrease in the value of the shopping malls of ARS 6,565.
(d)
Additionally, due to the impact of the inflation adjustment, ARS 197,934 were reclassified for shopping malls from “Net gain from fair value adjustment” to “Inflation Adjustment” in the Statement of Income and Other Comprehensive Income.
(e)
The value of our office buildings and other rental properties measured in real terms decreased by 9.18% during the six-month period ended as of December 31, 2023, due to the variation of the implicit exchange rate. Likewise, there is an impact for the sales of the period.

Costa Urbana –former Solares de Santa María– Costanera Sur, Buenos Aires City (IRSA)
 
On December 21, 2021, it was published the law from Buenos Aires City congress approving the Regulations for the development of the property of approximately 70 hectares, owned by the Company since 1997, previously known as "Solares de Santa María", located in front of the Río de la Plata in the South Coast of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, southeast of Puerto Madero. The published law grants a New Standard, designated: "U73 - Public Park and Costa Urbana Urbanization", which enables the combination of diverse uses such as homes, offices, retail, services, public spaces, education, and entertainment.
 
IRSA will have a construction capacity of approximately 866,806 sqm, which will drive growth for the coming years through the development of mixed-use projects.
 
IRSA agreed to give in 50.8 hectares for public use, which represents approximately 71% of the total area of the property to the development of public green spaces and will contribute with three additional lots of the property, two for the Sustainable Urban Development Fund (FODUS) and one for the Innovation Trust, Science and Technology of the Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, and the sum of USD 2 million in cash and the amount of 3,000,000 sovereign bonds (AL35) which have already been paid.
 
In March 2023, Mensura was approved with a proposal for subdivision, fractioning, transfer of streets and public space and we are in the process of deeding the 3 plots and the public park sector that is transferred for consideration.
 
Likewise, the Company will be in charge of the infrastructure and road works on the property and will carry out the public space works contributing up to USD 40 million together with the maintenance of the public spaces assigned for 10 years or until the sum of USD 10 million is completed.

“Costa Urbana” will change the landscape of Buenos Aires City, giving life to an undeveloped area and will be in an exceptional property due to its size, location and connectivity, providing the City the possibility of expanding and recovering access to the Río de la Plata coast with areas for walks, recreation, green spaces, public parks and mixed uses.
 
On the judicial front, it should be noted that there are two (2) related judicial processes:
 
(i)
On October 29, 2021, IRSA was notified of the amparo lawsuit initiated by the Civil Association Observatory of Law in the City in relation to the property, in which it was stated that there were nullities that affected the approval process of the Agreement. Urban Planning (CU). The lawsuit was subsequently expanded, also challenging issues proposed in the CU. IRSA proceeded to answer the claim on November 12, 2021, requesting its rejection, and on March 10, 2022, the court issued a ruling partially granting protection, which was appealed by the Company and the GCBA. On March 6, 2023, the Chamber of Administrative, Tax and Consumer Relations Litigation - Chamber IV decided to revoke the first instance ruling, and consequently reject the claim. Since this ruling was not appealed, the case has concluded favorably for the Company.
 
(ii)
On October 18, 2023, IRSA was notified of the amparo lawsuit initiated by Messrs. Jonatan Baldiviezo and María Eva Koutsovitis in relation to the property, in which they intend to suspend the holding of the public hearing (which took place in August 2021), extend the registration period for the aforementioned hearing and declare the nullity of the public hearing, in the event that it had already been carried out, based on alleged violations of the right to informed participation in the same and access to environmental information. In this regard, IRSA answered the complaint on November 1, 2023, requesting its rejection. This is based on the fact that the issue was already partially resolved by the trial referred to in point (i), and that all the relevant information for carrying out the approval process of the Urban Planning Agreement was fully provided. The environmental issues of the project must be addressed at the corresponding stage, as established by Law 123. On November 8, 2023, the Public Prosecutor's Office issued an opinion recommending that the action be rejected. As of the current date, the case is pending judgment. Considering the issues discussed in this process, a resolution favorable to the interests of IRSA is expected.

IDBD
 
The Group lost control of IDBD on September 25, 2020.
 
On September 21, 2020, IDBD filed a lawsuit against Dolphin Netherlands B.V. (“Dolphin BV”) and IRSA before the Tel-Aviv Jaffa District Court (civil case no. 29694-09-20). The amount claimed by IDBD is NIS 140 million, alleging that Dolphin BV and IRSA breached an alleged legally binding commitment to transfer to IDBD 2 installments of NIS 70 million. On December 24, 2020, and following approval by the insolvency court, the IDBD trustee filed a motion to dismiss the claim, maintaining the right as IDBD trustee, to file a new inter alia claim in the same matter, after conduct an investigation into the reasons for IDBD's insolvency. On December 24, 2020, the court entered a judgment to dismiss the claim as requested. On October 31, 2021, the Insolvency Commissioner notified that he did not oppose the motion, and on that same date, the court affirmed the motion initiated by the trustee of IDBD.
 
On December 26, 2021 IDBD filed the lawsuit against Dolphin BV and IRSA for the sum of NIS 140 million, plus interest and costs.
 
On January 30, 2023, a copy of the lawsuit was sent to us and we evaluated the legal defense alternatives for the company's interests. Throughout the year 2023 and up to the present date, the legal process has continued as usual, and the Company has responded to all requests made to it.
 
The company is currently discussing the validity of the claim regarding its liability and, subsidiarily, rebutting the substantive arguments raised by IDBD. However, based on the analysis conducted by the Company's lawyers to date, a provision related to this claim has been recorded in accordance with applicable accounting standards. As of the issuance date of these condensed interim financial statements, the legal process is still ongoing.

Change in the total amount of shares and its nominal value - IRSA
 
On September 13, 2023, IRSA announced that having obtained the authorizations from the CNV and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange as resolved at the Shareholders' Meeting held on April 27, 2023, in relation to:
 
(i)
an increase in the capital stock in the amount of ARS 6,552.4 million, through the partial capitalization of the Issue Premium account, resulting in the issuance of 6,552,405,000 common shares, with a par value of ARS 1 (one peso) and with the right to one vote per share; and
(ii)
changing the nominal value of the ordinary shares from ARS 1 to ARS 10 each and entitled to one (1) vote per share.
 
Having obtained the authorizations from the Comisión Nacional de Valores (the Argentine National Securities Commission) and from the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, the Company informs all shareholders who have such quality as of September 19, 2023, according to the registry maintained by Caja de Valores S.A., that from September 20, 2023, the shares distribution and the change in nominal value was made simultaneously and the entry of the change of 811,137,457 book-entry common shares, with a nominal value of ARS 1 each and one vote per share, for the amount of 736,354,245 book-entry common shares with a nominal value of ARS 10 each and one vote per share, consequently, a reverse split of the Company’s shares shall be carried out, where every 1 (one) old share with nominal value of ARS 1 shall be exchanged for 0.907804514 new shares with nominal value ARS 10. The new shares distributed due to the described capitalization have economic rights under equal conditions with those that are currently in circulation.

Regarding the shareholders who, because of the entry in the Scriptural Registry, have fractions of common shares with a nominal value of ARS 10 and one vote per share, they were settled in cash in accordance with the listing regulations of Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos. Regarding the shareholders who, due to the exchange of shares did not reach at least one share with a nominal value of ARS 10, the necessary amount was assigned to them until the nominal value of ARS 10 is completed.
 
The Company share capital after the indicated operations will amount to ARS 7,364 million represented by 736,354,245 book-entry common shares with a nominal value of ARS 10 each and one vote per share.
 
    Likewise, the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange has been requested to change the modality of the negotiation of the shares representing the share capital. Specifically, the negotiation price will be registered per share instead of being negotiated by Argentine peso (ARS) of nominal value, given that the change in nominal value, and the issuance of shares resulting from the capitalization, would produce a substantial downward effect on the share price.
 
This capitalization and change in the nominal value of the shares do not modify the economic values of the holdings or the percentage of participation in the share capital.
 
Warrants – Modification on Ratio and Price - IRSA
 
On September 14, 2023, IRSA reported that as a result of (i) an increase in the capital stock through the partial capitalization of the Issue Premium account; and (ii) an amendment to section seven of its bylaws, changing the nominal value of the ordinary shares from one peso (ARS 1) to ten pesos (ARS 10) each and entitled to one (1) vote per share, which was informed in September 13, 2023, where the outstanding shares will change from 811,137,457 common shares, with a nominal value of ARS 1 each and one vote per share, to the amount of 736,354,245 common shares with a nominal value of ARS 10 each and one vote per share, as it was approved by the shareholders meeting held on April 27, 2023.

Likewise, it was approved to distribute 13,928,410 own shares in the portfolio of nominal value ARS 1 to the Shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings.

On October 20, 2023, IRSA reported that it had made the payment of the dividend approved at the meeting held on October 5, 2023 in Argentina.
 
The cash dividend and treasury shares distribution among GDS holders have been delayed due to the exchange and securities restrictions in force in Argentina. On October 20, 2023, the Company deposited the amount corresponding to the cash dividend in the mutual fund called “Super Ahorro $” managed by Santander Asset Management Gerente de Fondos Comunes de Inversión S.A., to preserve the value of the dividend in Argentine pesos. On December 12, 2023, the Company transferred the funds to the Depositary Bank of New York, fulfilling its obligation to pay dividends and leaving in the hands of the Depositary the completion of the process with the distribution to the holders.
 
After the end of the period, on January 19, 2024, once the corresponding administrative processes had been completed, the Depositary paid the cash dividend, for a net amount per GDS of USD 0.955110, including the yield of the “Super Ahorro $” fund. Likewise, on January 29, 2024, the distribution of treasury shares was carried out among GDS holders.
 
The aforementioned corresponds to the payment of dividends to foreign holders, the dividends to local shareholders were canceled on October 12, 2023.

Number of shares to be issued per warrant: Pre-dividend ratio: 1.0639. Post-dividend ratio: 1.2272 (nominal value ARS 10).
Exercise price per new share to be issued: Pre-dividend price: USD 0.4063. Post-dividend price: USD 0.3522 (nominal value ARS 10).
 
The other terms and conditions of the warrants remain the same.

On December 20, 2020, BrasilAgro acquired the following companies established in Bolivia from Cresud: (i) Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A.; (ii) Ombú Agropecuaria S.A.; (iii) Yatay Agropecuaria S.A.; and (iv) Yuchan Agropecuaria S.A. (“Bolivian Companies”). The Bolivian Companies maintained possession, ownership or presumed ownership of various rural properties in Bolivia, including the rural property called "Las Londras" (part of the assets of Agropecuaria Acres del Sud), with an area of 4,485 hectares. At the time of the aforementioned operation, Las Londras was subject to an administrative land regularization process ("Land Regularization Process") initiated and conducted by the National Institute of Agrarian Reform of Bolivia ("INRA"), whose objective is the perfection of rights over property.
 
On November 25, 2021, as part of the Land Regularization Process, INRA issued the Final Land Regularization Resolution No. RA-SS 0504/2021 (“Definitive Resolution”), through which it declared the illegality of the possession of 4,435 hectares of Las Londras. On January 5, 2022, Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A. filed a “Contentious Administrative Lawsuit” challenging the Final Resolution in its entirety. However, on September 15, 2023, the Agro-Environmental Court issued a ruling declaring the Administrative Litigation Claim unfounded and confirming the Final Resolution (“Judgment”). In this context, Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A. will file a “Constitutional Amparo Action” against the Sentence, with the objective of revoking it.
 
BrasilAgro's external legal advisors have evaluated that the prospects of revoking the Judgment through the “Constitutional Amparo Action” are possible.

(All amounts in millions of Argentine Pesos, except otherwise indicated)
 
1.
General information
 
Cresud Sociedad Anónima, Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria (“Cresud” or the “Company”) was founded in 1936 as a subsidiary of Credit Foncier, a Belgian company primarily engaged in providing rural and urban loans in Argentina and administering real estate holdings foreclosed by Credit Foncier. Credit Foncier was liquidated in 1959, and as part of such liquidation, the shares of Cresud were distributed to Credit Foncier’s shareholders. From the 1960s through the end of the 1970s, the business of Cresud shifted exclusively to agricultural activities.
 
Cresud is a company organized and domiciled in the Republic of Argentina. The address of its registered office is Carlos Della Paolera 261, 9th Floor, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

During the six-month period ended December 31, 2023 and for the year ended June 30, 2023, there were no financial costs activated as there have been no assets that qualify for capitalization. No investment property of the Company has been mortgaged to guarantee some of the Company´s loans.
 
The amounts recognized in the statement of income and other comprehensive income are not material for any of the exercises analyzed.
 
As described in Note 2.6 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements corresponding to the year ended June 30, 2023, the Group uses the valuation made by qualified external appraisers to determine the fair value of its investment properties. Fair values are based on comparable values (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). The sales prices of comparable land are adjusted considering the specific aspects of each land, the most important used premise being the price per hectare.

Introduction
 
We have reviewed the accompanying unaudited condensed interim separate financial statements of Cresud Sociedad Anónima, Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria (“the Company”), which comprise the unaudited condensed interim separate statement of financial position at December 31, 2023, the unaudited condensed interim separate statements of income and other comprehensive income for the six month period and three month period ended December 31, 2023, the interim separate statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and selected explanatory notes.

Consolidated revenues decreased during the first half of fiscal year 2024 by 2.6%, compared to the same period of fiscal year 2023, while Adjusted EBITDA grew by 45.1% during the same period. Agribusiness segments adjusted EBITDA was ARS 23,857 million, 39.3% higher than in the same period of 2023, mainly due to higher farmland sales. The urban properties and investments business (through IRSA) adjusted EBITDA was ARS 63,262 million.
 
The net result for the first semester of fiscal year 2024 registered a gain of ARS 122,205 million, a 104.0% higher than the registered in the same period of 2023. This higher result is mainly explained by the gain in from changes in fair value of investment properties in the urban properties and investment business.

2024 Campaign
 
The 2024 campaign is advancing with better weather conditions in the region and particularly in Argentina, which experienced one of its worst historical droughts last seasons. Although the country experienced a lack of rain at the beginning of the campaign and last January, we project very good production levels for the company, in line with Argentina, which estimates a soybean production of 50 million tons and corn of 55 million tons. International commodity prices and input costs have been correcting compared to last season. We will apply the best agricultural practices to achieve high yields and increase margins per hectare.
 
Our Portfolio
 
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, our portfolio under management consisted of 745,047 hectares, of which 310,466 hectares are productive and 434,581 hectares are land reserves distributed in the four countries of the region where we operate.

I)
Land Development and Sales
 
 
We periodically sell properties that have reached a considerable appraisal to reinvest in new farms with higher appreciation potential. We analyze the possibility of selling based on a number of factors, including the expected future yield of the farmland for continued agricultural and livestock exploitation, the availability of other investment opportunities and cyclical factors that have a bearing on the global values of farmlands.

The Grains activity presented a positive variation by ARS 8,004 million, from a ARS 6,525 million loss during the first semester of fiscal year 2023 to a ARS 1,479 million gain during the same period of fiscal year 2024, mainly because of:
 
A gain in the productive result in Argentina due to the diversion in 22-23 Corn Campaign due to a greater volume of tons obtained compared to a negative result in the 21-22 Campaign due to lower yields, higher direct costs and prices lower than projected.
 
Offset by a lower holding result in Brazil from soybeans due to a lower planted area and a drop in prices.
 
Better results in the wheat and barley harvest compared to the same period of fiscal year 2023, due to the impact of the drought in the previous campaign.
 
A higher gain in the holding result in Argentina, due to better prices performance in pesos against inflation compared with the same period of fiscal year 2023.

Summary as of December 31, 2023
 
 
 
The result of the Sugarcane activity increased by ARS 645 million, from a gain of ARS 438 million in the first semester of fiscal year 2023 to a gain of ARS 1,083 million in the same period of 2024. This is mainly due to an improvement in the result from sales due to a greater volume sold, partially offset by lower productive results in Brazil due to lower prices.

EBITDA Reconciliation
 
In this summary report, we present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define EBITDA as profit for the period excluding: (i) result of discontinued operations, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) financial results, net iv) results from participation in associates and joint ventures; and (v) depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA minus net profit from changes in the fair value of investment properties, not realized and realized sales.
 
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS financial measures that do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. We present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we believe they provide investors supplemental measures of our financial performance that may facilitate period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Our management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from time to time, among other measures, for internal planning and performance measurement purposes. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to profit from operations, as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities, in each case, as determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The table below presents a reconciliation of profit for the relevant period to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

Summary as of December 31, 2023
 
 
 
Brief comment on prospects for the fiscal year
 
The 2024 campaign is advancing with better weather conditions in the region and particularly in Argentina, which experienced one of its worst historical droughts last seasons. Although the country experienced a lack of rain at the beginning of the campaign and last January, we project very good production levels for the company, in line with Argentina, which estimates a soybean production of 50 million tons and corn of 55 million tons.
 
International commodity prices have been correcting compared to last season, mainly explained by the growth in supply from South America, waiting for demand to be reactivated. Regarding input costs, they are still at high levels, but are expected to adjust in line with grain prices. We will apply the best agricultural practices to achieve high yields and increase margins per hectare.
 
Regarding livestock activity, a significant improvement in prices has been observed in Argentina, which, added to the good weather conditions of the campaign, predicts positive results for this activity with good levels of meat production. We will continue to concentrate our production in our own fields, mainly in the Northwest of Argentina and consolidating our activity in Brazil with a focus on improving productivity, controlling costs and working efficiently to achieve the highest possible operating margins.
 
On the real estate segment, we have been observing an upward trend in land prices worldwide that has not been replicated in Argentina and we are beginning to see greater interest in our assets in the country. As part of our business strategy, we will continue selling the farms that have reached their maximum level of appreciation in the region, hoping that Brazil maintains its liquidity and firm prices, and Argentina increases the number of transactions, with competitive valuations.
 
Our agricultural commercial services business, through FyO, plans to continue growing in the commercialization of grains, continue with the digital transformation of the company and advance in the regionalization of the input business in Brazil, Paraguay, Bolivia and Peru with the objective of increase sales and margins. For its part, Agrofy, the online agricultural platform, will focus on the profitability of the different categories and main clients. We will continue to achieve synergies with FyO in the development of commercial agreements with clients and giving visibility to our portfolio through the Marketplace.
 
The urban property and investment business, which we own through IRSA, has been recording very good results in all its rental segments and distributing high dividends. Although the economic context is challenging looking ahead to the coming quarters in terms of shopping mall sales and visitors, we trust in the quality of the portfolio and in the management's ability to adapt to changes in the context and continue offering the best proposals to its tenants and visitors.
 
During fiscal year 2024, we will continue working on the reduction and efficiency of the cost structure. At the same time we will continue evaluating financial, economic and/or corporate tools that allow the Company to improve its position in the market in which it operates and have the necessary liquidity to meet its obligations, such as public and/or private disposal of assets that may include real estate as well as negotiable securities owned by the Company, issuance of negotiable bonds, repurchase of own shares, among other instruments that be useful to the proposed objectives.
 
We believe that Cresud, owner of a diversified rural and urban real estate portfolio, with a management with many years of experience in the sector and a great track record in accessing the capital markets, will have excellent possibilities to take advantage of the best opportunities that arise in the market.
