(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Camposol Holding Ltd. sold 17,597 net MT during 2Q-16, including discontinued
operations volume, down 16.3% from 2Q-15 mainly explained by a decrease in
volumes of peppers, asparagus, artichokes, grapes, avocados, shrimp and other
seafood products, net of an increase in volumes of blueberries.
Average price during 2Q-16 was USD 3.08 per net KG, including discontinued
operations sales, up 12.0% from 2Q-15 mainly explained by higher prices of
shrimp and other seafood products as well as higher prices of blueberries and
avocados.
As a result, Camposol Holding Ltd. reported sales of USD 54.2 million during
2Q-15, down 6.1% from 2Q-15. Average cost of goods sold during 2Q-2016 was USD
2.50 per net KG, including discontinued operations costs, up 12.1% from 2Q-15
mainly explained by higher costs for asparagus, blueberries, shrimp and other
seafood products.
EBITDA during 2Q-16, including discontinued operations sales, was USD 6.1
million, down 14.6% from 2Q-15. EBITDA margin during 2Q-16 decreased to 11.2%
from 12.4% in 2Q-15.
As of June 30(th) 2016, the Company maintained a cash balance of USD 29.6
million.
The Company expects to continue its diversification strategy by increasing the
production in the F&V Segment (blueberries) and Seafood Segment (conversion of
shrimp ponds), as well as continue to reinforce the Trading Segment (direct
sales to retailers), adding value to its clients through commercial, marketing
and service initiatives which should result in higher margins.
"Second quarter results are in line with our expectations including the effects
of our recently declared discontinued operations. We are keeping our renewed
focus on our fresh and frozen business and a positive outlook for the year,
especially on our avocado and our growing blueberry business. We are grateful to
our shareholders for the confidence placed on us as we continue working hard in
making Camposol a world-class company", stated Manuel Salazar Diez Canseco, CEO
of Camposol Holding Ltd.
The long-term growth prospects for exotic fruits and vegetables markets are
excellent. Avocados and blueberries consumption is growing, with headroom for
increased per capita consumption in key markets. The Company expects good demand
for all fresh produce in general in both the United States and Europe.
Mr. Manuel Salazar, CEO and Ms. Maria Cristina Couturier, CFO, will host a
