Dear Shareholders of Industrias Bachoco:  
 
2022 was a year of overcoming challenges and delivering positive results. Like we 
mentioned in our quarterly reports, prices for corn and soybean meal reported record 
highs during most part of the year which had a significant negative impact in our cost of 
sales across our operations. Nonetheless, Bachoco kept its commitment by delivering 
high quality animal protein products to our customers who have always been key to our 
Company´s success.
 
In that same line, we continued taking solid steps towards our growth strategy. In January 
2022, we announced we concluded the purchase of 100% stock of RYC Alimentos. This 
is a multiprotein meat processor and distributor with national coverage that participates 
in all the distribution channels with fresh and value-added products of beef, pork and 
chicken. This acquisition also allowed us to enter into the owned stores segment. 
Moreover, we were able to integrate to our team RYC’s valuable talent who has been an 
important piece towards capturing the synergies initially identified.  
Also, in December 2022 we announced we reached an agreement to acquire Norson 
Holding, a vertically integrated pork producer and exporter, with operations in Sonora, 
Mexico. As of the date of this report, this transaction is being reviewed by Mexican 
antitrust authorities (COFECE). We look forward to completing this process as soon as 
possible as we consider it will be a perfect fit with our SASA and RYC operation.

Bachoco  |  Annual Report 2022

As important as our financial results is 
our commitment and contribution to our 
society. This was recognized by MERCO 
by placing us as one of the ten best food 
companies in Mexico. 

As a result of the aforementioned, and by managing our sales mix, our total net sales grew by 
21.0% compared to 2021 which allowed us to offset the 20% increase in cost of sales. Ultimately, 
for 2022, we were able to achieve a double-digit EBITDA margin of 10.3%. Within the high end 
of the last five years.
Despite the increase in working capital is mainly due to an increase on inventory, value 
resulting from more expensive raw materials costs, our financial structure remained solid. We 
ended 2022 with net cash of $15,888.8 million, which will allow us to continue with our growth 
plans and at the same time, face the uncertainties and volatilities of the protein industry.
As important as our financial results is our commitment and contribution to our society. This 
was recognized by MERCO by placing us as one of the ten best food companies in Mexico. 
Likewise, our CEO, Rodolfo Ramos Arvizu, once again was ranked as one of the most respected 
CEOs in the country.
In order to reinforce our culture of ethics and integrity within the Company, in 2022 we revised 
and updated our Code of Ethics. Particularly, we focused on the creation of a Human Rights 
and Conflict of Interest Policies which will be deployed in 2023. 
2022 not only brought positive results, but also brought some changes in our organization. 
We said goodbye to our Purchasing Director, Mr. Alejandro Elias who retired during the year. 
We also welcomed Ms. Stephanie Petite who is now the first woman to fill an Executive Officer 
position in Bachoco. Also, Mr. Fernando Ramírez and Mr. James Young joined the Executive 
team leading the positions of Commercial and Marketing Strategy Director and Bachoco OK 
Foods CEO respectively. We are sure that each one of these members, in their own way, will 
bring value to the Company and we wish them the best of success. 
In that same line, on February of 2023, we announced that Bachoco’s CEO, Mr. Rodolfo Ramos, 
would be retiring effective in April 2023. For him, I would like to reiterate my gratitude and 
recognition for his hard and valuable work during the 43 years he was part of Bachoco’s team. 
During that time, I had the opportunity to watch him grow not only professionally but as a natural 
team leader. 
Assuming the CEO role is Mr. Ernesto Salmon. I would like to welcome Mr. Salmón who has 
been part of Bachoco’s team since 1991 and, most recently, held the position Mexico Operations 
Director. Likewise, I am confident that with Ernesto’s expertise and drive, as well as the executive 
team, the Company will continue to grow towards the business our family envisioned one day 
when they dreamt about Bachoco back then in Obregon Sonora in 1952.

Dear Shareholders:
All figures discussed below are information of 2022 with comparative figures of 2021. It was 
prepared under IFRS accounting principles and is presented in millions of pesos unless otherwise 
indicated. 
In 2022 we started seeing macroeconomic improvements in some areas. In México, where more 
than 70% of our net sales are generated, according to INEGI, the economy grew 3.1% and Mexican 
peso appreciated by 4.9% vs the U.S. dollar by year-end. However, inflation rate was 7.82% 
which is above the already high level reported in 2021 of 7.36%.  Regarding the U.S. according 
to information from the Federal Reserve, economy grew 0.9% and inflation rate remained at the 
5.7% range reported in 2021.
According to the Mexican National Poultry Association estimates, in 2022, chicken produced 
in Mexico is expected to grow around 2.7% while table eggs production showed an estimated 
decrease of around 1.5%.  Regarding the US poultry industry, according to the USDA, chicken 
volume produced grew 2.9% in 2022, which is above its normalized growth rate. Per capita 
consumption of chicken increased in both markets.
On the other hand, during the majority of 2022, we observed high prices for corn and soybean 
meal both in U.S. dollars and Mexican peso terms, when compared to 2021 values. In this regard 
we made important efforts on trying to offset that negative impact thru operational efficiencies 
and sales mix.

2022 & 2021 RESULTS 
Net sales in 2022 totaled $98,890.7 million, $17,191.6 million more or 21.0% increase 
in net sales, when compared to $81,699.1 million reported in 2021. Sales from our 
operation in the US represented 25.5% of total revenue, compared to the 24.9% 
reported the previous year.
On the operating segment view, from the 21.0% increase compared to 2021, 9.6% comes 
from Poultry in México; 6.0% comes from our U.S. operation and the remaining 5.5% 
from our Others segment.
Volume from our Poultry segment showed a slight decrease vs 2021 both in México and 
the U.S. following demand seasonality. Particularly in Mexico, we managed to improve 
the value of our sales mix while transferring some of the increases of our cost of sales 
to our net price. On the other hand, in the U.S. market, during most part of the year, 
we observed high commodity prices mainly for breast meat, leg quarters and WOGS 
following also the behavior of raw materials costs.
About our Others segment, in 2022, we consolidated the results from RYC alimentos. In 
that regard, volume sold from total Others increased 8.2%. The majority of that growth 
came from the mentioned integration.  
 
Cost of sales totaled $82,032.8 million, 20.0% higher than the $68,356.7 million reported 
in 2021. The increase in cost of sales is mainly attributed to the impact of the escalation 
in prices of raw materials such as grain and soybean meal.
Despite the volatility of the commodity markets, our focus on efficiencies allowed us to 
achieve a gross profit of $16,857.9 million, with a gross margin of 17.0%; higher than the 
$13,342.4 million of gross profit and margin of 16.3% achieved in 2021.
Total SG&A in 2022 were $8,506.3 million, an increase of $1,378.5 million or 19.3% 
compared to $7,127.8 million in 2021. SG&A as a percentage of net sales represented 
8.6% in 2022 and 8.7% in 2021. This increase was mainly driven by items impacted by 
high inflation rates both in Mexico and the U.S. such as fuel, energy and salaries. 
In 2022, we had other income of $34.3 million, compared to other expenses of $322.8 
reported in 2021.

As a result, Operating income in 2022 was $8,385.9 million, a margin of 8.5%. This represents a 42.3% increase 
compared to the $5,891.9 million and a margin of 7.2% achieved in 2021.
In 2022, we reached an EBITDA of $10,198.6 million, a margin of 10.3%, 38.7% higher when compared to the EBITDA 
of $7,355.7 million obtained in 2021, with a margin of 9.0%.
In 2022 we reported net financial expenses of $301.7 million, compared with net financial income of $849.9 million 
obtained in 2021.

taxes. This figure compares to total taxes of $1,807.6 million, which includes income taxes of $1,790.6 and $17.0 
million of deferred taxes in 2021.
As a result, the profit for the year attributable to controlling interest in 2022 was $6,114.2 million, with a net margin 
of 6.1%, which represents earnings per share of $10.20 pesos, compared to $5,065.6 million, 6.0% margin and $8.45 
earnings per share achieved in 2021.
Cash and equivalents as of December 31, 2022, totaled $20,080.6 million, a decrease of $696.2 million vs the

Total debt as of December 31, 2022, was $4,192.0 million, compared to total debt of $1,993.9 million reported as of 
December 31, 2021. As a result, our net cash as of December 31, 2022 totaled $15,888.8 million, compared to the 
net cash of $18,782.9 million as of December 31, 2021.  An important part of that decrease was related to higher 
inventories mainly as a result of the increase in raw materials value.
Capital investments in 2022 totaled $4,840.8 million, an increase of 39.1% compared to the $3,479.5 million 
reported in 2021. In 2022, the company continued with the implementation of new projects oriented towards 
organic growth and productivity improvements.

_ Regarding Internal Audit Function: 
The Audit and Corporate Practices Committee has remained involved with 
the needs of the internal audit area to make sure they have the necessary 
human and material resources for the suitable performance of its function. 
The evaluations carried out by the Internal Audit, the external auditors, and 
the General Director have been reviewed, and it is concluded that the internal 
control processes provide reasonable security to prevent or detect errors 
or material irregularities in the normal course of social operations, although 
these processes are constantly improving and the corresponding revisions 
continue. 
_ Regarding Financial Information
 
The Financial Statements of the Company were discussed quarterly with 
the executives responsible for their preparation and review, there were 
no significant observations to the information presented. Before being 
forwarded to the Mexican Stock and Exchange, the Financial Statements 
were reviewed by the Committee for its approval or ratification by the Board 
of Directors. In each quarterly Committee´s meeting, reports to the Stock 
Exchange were analyzed and approved, having made the observations or 
suggestions of the case and recommending to the Board of Directors its 
approval (or ratification) in each case regarding its public disclosure. During 
the period in question, Financial Statements corresponding to 2022 fiscal 
year were reviewed and discussed, and did not submit observations and/or 
qualifications, in consequence, the Committee recommended its approval 
by the Board of Directors for submission to the Shareholders´ Meeting. 
_ Regarding External Audit Performance:
 
The services of Galaz, Yamazaki, Ruiz Urquiza, S.C. (Deloitte) continued to 
be used as External Auditors of the Company. We worked with Deloitte 
to insure the compliance, from both Deloitte and the Company, of the 
regulation issued by the Mexican Authorities (Comision Nacional Bancaria y 
de Valores), regarding the “Circular Unica de Auditores Externos”, (External 
Audit Regulation). The fees corresponding to 2022 were duly revised and 
approved. The Audited Financial Statements as of December 31, 2022 were 
received on the part of the External Auditor. The Audit Committee concludes 
that the performance of Galaz, Yamazaki, Ruiz Urquiza, S.C. (Deloitte) as 
External Auditors of the Company and of its partners in charge of the 
respective audit, is appropriate and that the communication between 
such Committee and the auditors referred herein is consistent. The 
External Auditors confirmed their independence.
_ Regarding Accounting and Self-Regulatory Policies
The main accounting policies followed by the Company were 
reviewed and approved in terms of the information received by reason 
of new regulations. During the period, the updates proposed by the 
Administration to various self-regulatory policies were reviewed, 
on which were favorably expressed for submission to the Board of 
Directors. The accounting policies, criteria, and information observed 
by the Company are adequate and sufficient. 
_ Conclusions
The recommendations of the Audit and Corporate Practices 
Committee have been or are being addressed by the Administration 
of the company. During the reported period, the Audit and Corporate 
Practices Committee did not receive from Shareholders, Directors, 
relevant executives, employees and in general from any third party, 
any remarks about accounting, internal controls and other matters 
related to the Internal or External Audit, other than those issued by 
the management during the preparation or revision of the respective

matters regarding the Administration. The Audit and Corporate Practices

Independent Auditors’ Report to the 
Board of Directors and Stockholders of 
Industrias Bachoco S.A.B. de C.V. and 
Subsidiaries 
 
(In thousands of Mexican pesos) 
 
Opinion  
 
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Industrias Bachoco, S.A.B. de  
C. V. and its subsidiaries (the “Entity”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position 
as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated statements of profit and loss and other 
comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and consolidated 
statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, 
including a summary of significant accounting policies. 
 
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material 
respects, the consolidated financial position of the Entity as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, and 
its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in 
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). 
 
Basis for Opinion 
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (“ISAs”). Our 
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit 
of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Entity in 
accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional 
Accountants (“IESBA Code”) together with the Code of Ethics issued by the Mexican Institute of Public 
Accountants (“IMCP Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the 
IESBA Code and the IMCP Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and 
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 
 
Other Matter  
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated into English for the 
convenience of readers. 
 
Key Audit Matter 
 
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our 
audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the 
context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in the forming our opinion, 
thereon and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined that the matter 
described below is the key audit issue which should be communicated in our report.

Valuation of goodwill and intangible assets of the Ok Foods - Albertville Quality Foods Inc. cash-
generating unit—Refer to Notes 3. e), j), and 15 to the consolidated financial statements. 
As of December 31, 2022, the carrying amount of the Entity’s’ goodwill was $2,627,663, of which 
$1,146,143 was allocated to the Ok Foods - Albertville Quality Foods, Inc. cash generating unit (“AQF 
CGU”). 
The recoverable amount of the AQF CGU was determined based on its value in use, which used 
projections of estimated cash flows. The significant assumptions used in projecting estimated cash flows 
were the revenue growth rate and annual discount rate. A change in the revenue growth rate or annual 
discount rate could have a significant impact on the recoverable amount of the AQF CGU. The recoverable 
amount of the AQF CGU exceeded its carrying value, and therefore, no impairment was recognized for 
the year ended December 31, 2022.  
We identified the valuation of the AQF CGU goodwill and intangibles as a key audit matter due to the 
significant judgment made by Management relating to the revenue growth rate and annual discount rate 
used in projecting estimated cash flows. This included considering the effects of the avian flu, the 
inflation and the slowdown in economic growth, which caused contractions of the demand in the US 
market. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and increased effort, including involvement of 
our valuation specialists, in performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the 
methodology used, the revenue growth rate and annual discount rate. 
Our audit procedures related to the revenue growth rate and annual discount rate used to project 
estimated cash flows in determining the recoverable amount of the AQF CGU included the following, 
among others: 
• 
We obtained an understanding and evaluated the Entity’s methodology for determining the 
recoverable amount of the AQF CGU, including the process for developing revenue growth rate and 
annual discount rate. 
 
• 
We tested the effectiveness of controls over Management’s evaluation of revenue growth rate and 
annual discount rate used in the projected estimated cash flows.  
 
• 
We compared the sales of the current year with sales from the previous year, and also compared 
actual results obtained in previous years with the results historically budgeted.  
 
• 
We evaluated the reasonableness of the revenue growth rate and annual discount rate 
assumptions by comparing them to (i) historical information; and (ii) information obtained from 
external sources (expectation of analysts and industry reports). 
 
• 
With the assistance of our valuation specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of (1) the 
valuation methodology and the current market data used by Management to determine the 
revenue growth rate and annual discount rate, and (2) developed an independent range of the 
recoverable amount of the AQF CGU. 
 
• 
We evaluated whether the projected estimated cash flows were consistent with evidence obtained 
in other areas of the audit. 
 
• 
We evaluate the sensitivity analysis prepared by the Entity considering a decrease or increase in 
the revenue growth rate and in the annual discount rate.

Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon 
 
Management is responsible for the information other than the consolidated financial statements (the 
“other information”). The other information will comprise the information that will be incorporated in the 
Annual Report that the Entity is obliged to prepare pursuant to Article 33 Fraction I, clause b) of Title 
Four, First Chapter of the “General Provisions Applicable to Issuers and Other Stock Market Participants” 
in Mexico, together with the Instructions Guide accompanying those provisions (collectively, the 
“Provisions”). The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this audit 
report. 
 
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 
 
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the 
other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other 
information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge 
obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When we read the Annual Report, 
we will issue the declaration surrounding the reading of the annual report required by Article 33 Fraction 
I, clause b) number 1.2. of the Provisions. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that 
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter. 
 
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated 
Financial Statements 
 
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial 
statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such internal control as Management determines is 
necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 
 
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Entity’s 
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and 
using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Entity or 
to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. 
 
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Entity’s consolidated financial 
reporting process. 
 
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements 
 
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as 
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s 
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a 
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement 
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or 
in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken 
on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. 
 

 
4 
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional 
skepticism throughout the audit. We also: 
 
- 
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, 
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, 
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The 
risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting 
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or 
the override of internal control. 
 
- 
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit 
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an 
opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity's internal control. 
 
- 
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting 
estimates and related disclosures made by Management. 
 
- 
Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting 
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to 
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Entity’s ability to continue as a going 
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in 
our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such 
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit 
evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions 
may cause the Entity to cease to continue as a going concern.  
 
- 
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, 
including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the 
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 
 
- 
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or 
business activities within the Entity to express an opinion on the consolidated financial 
statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. 
We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. 
 
 
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned 
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in 
internal control that we identify during our audit. 
 
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant 
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions 
taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. 
 

 
5 
 
 
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that 
were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and 
are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or 
regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we 
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of 
doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

INDUSTRIAS BACHOCO, S.A.B. DE C.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES 
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
 
Years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 
 
(Thousands of Mexican pesos, except amounts per share) 
 
(1) 
Reporting entity 
Industrias Bachoco, S.A.B. de C.V. and subsidiaries (hereinafter, “Bachoco” or the 
“Company”) is a publicly traded company and was incorporated on April 17, 1980, as a legal 
entity. The Company’s registered address is Avenida Tecnológico 401, Ciudad Industrial, 
Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. 
 
The Company is engaged in breeding, processing and marketing poultry (chicken and eggs), 
swine and other products (primarily balanced animal feed). Bachoco is a holding company that 
has control over a group of subsidiaries (see note 5). 
 
The shares of the Company are listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV for its Spanish 
acronym) under the ticker symbol “Bachoco,” and in the New York Stock Exchange 
(“NYSE”), under the ticker symbol “IBA” (see note 31 b). 
 
(2) 
Basis of preparation 
a) 
Statement of compliance 
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International 
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”/”IAS”), as issued by the International Accounting 
Standard Board (“IASB”). 
 
On April 24, 2023, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes were 
authorized for issuance by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Daniel Salazar Ferrer, 
for review and approval by the Audit Committee, Board of Directors and stockholders. In 
accordance with Mexican General Corporate Law and the Company’s bylaws, the 
stockholders are empowered to modify the consolidated financial statements after their 
issuance should they deem it necessary. 
 
Going concern 
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Management assuming that the 
Company will continue to operate as a going concern. 
 
Convenience translation  
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and its notes have been translated into 
English for the convenience of readers. 
 
b) 
Basis of measurement 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared on the historical cost basis 
(historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for 
goods and services), except for the following items in the consolidated statement of financial 
position, which are measured at fair value: 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2 
• Derivative financial instruments for trading and hedging, and investment in securities at 
fair value through profit or loss and investment in securities at fair value through other 
comprehensive income 
• Biological assets 
 
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a 
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, 
regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation 
technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into 
account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those 
characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.  
 
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into 
Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are 
observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurements in its entirety, 
which are described as follows: 
 
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 
 
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are 
observable either directly or indirectly. 
 
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. 
 
c) 
Functional and presentation currency 
These consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Mexican pesos (“pesos” 
or “$”), the official currency of Mexico, which is the currency in which the Company’s 
accounting records are maintained and functional currency for most of its subsidiaries, except 
for foreign subsidiaries for which the U.S. dollar is the functional currency as well as the 
currency in which accounting records are maintained. 
 
For disclosure purposes, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, “thousands of 
pesos” or “$” means thousands of Mexican pesos, and “thousands of dollars” means thousands 
of U.S. dollars. 
 
When deemed relevant, certain amounts are included between parentheses as a translation into 
thousands of dollars, into thousands of Mexican pesos, or both, as applicable. These 
translations are performed for the convenience of the reader at the closing exchange rate 
issued by Bank of Mexico, which is $19.51, $20.51 and $19.95 pesos to one U.S. dollar as of 
December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.  
 
d) 
Use of estimates and judgments 
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires 
Management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of 
accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. 
Actual results may differ from these estimates. 
 
Estimates and significant assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates 
are recognized in the period in which they occur and in any future periods affected. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
3 
The following are the critical accounting estimates and assumptions in the application of the 
Company’s accounting policies, which are significant to the amounts recognized in the 
consolidated financial statements. 
 
Critical accounting judgments 
i. Fair value of biological assets 
The Company estimates the fair value of biological assets as the price that would be received 
or paid in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As part 
of the estimate, the Company considers the maturity periods of such assets, the necessary time 
span for the biological assets to reach a productive stage, as well as future economic benefits 
obtained. 
 
The balance of current biological assets includes hatching eggs, growing pigs and growing 
poultry, while the balance of non-current biological assets includes poultry in its different 
production stages, and breeder pigs.  
 
Non-current biological assets are valued at production cost less accumulated depreciation or 
accumulated impairment losses, as there is no observable or reliable market for such assets. 
Additionally, the Company believes that there is no reliable method for measuring the fair 
value of non-current biological assets. Current biological assets are valued at fair value when 
there is an observable market, less estimated selling expenses. 
 
ii. Business combinations or acquisition of assets 
Management uses its professional judgment to determine whether the acquisition of a group of 
assets constitutes a business combination or acquisition of assets in accordance with IFRS. 
This determination may have a significant impact in how the acquired assets and assumed 
liabilities are accounted for, both on initial recognition and subsequent thereto. 
 
iii. Aggregation of operating segments  
The Company’s chicken and egg operating segments are aggregated to present one reportable 
segment (Poultry) as they have similar products and services, production processes, classes of 
customers, methods used for distribution, the nature of the regulatory environment in which 
they operate, and similar economic characteristics as evidenced by similar 5 trends in average 
gross profit margins. These factors are evaluated at least annually. 
 
iv.Discount rate estimation to calculate the present value of future minimum rent payments 
The Company estimates the discount rate to be used in determining the lease liability, based 
on the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). 
 
The Company uses a two-level model, with which it determines the elements that make up the 
discount rate: (i) reference rate, and (ii) credit risk component. In such model, Management 
also considers its policies and practices to obtain financing, distinguishing between 
borrowings obtained at the corporate level (that is, by the holding company), or at the level of 
each subsidiary. Finally, for real estate leases, or in which there is significant and observable 
evidence of their residual value, the Company estimates and evaluates an adjustment for the 
characteristics of the underlying asset, taking into account the possibility that such asset may 
be granted as collateral or guarantee against the risk of default. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
4 
 
v.Estimate of the term of the lease contracts 
The Company defines the term of the leases as the period for which there is a contractual 
payment commitment, considering the non-cancellable period of the contract, as well as the 
renewal and early termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised. The 
Company participates in lease agreements that do not have a defined mandatory term, a 
defined renewal period (if it contains a renewal clause), or annual automatic renewals. 
Accordingly, to measure the lease liability, the Company estimates the term of the contracts 
considering their contractual rights and limitations, the business plan, as well as Management's 
intentions for the use of the underlying asset. 
 
Additionally, the Company considers the early termination clauses of its contracts and the 
probability of exercising them, as part of its estimation of the lease term. 
 
Key sources of estimation uncertainty on the application of accounting policies 
i.Assessments to determine the recoverability of deferred tax assets 
On an annual basis the Company prepares financial projections to determine if it will generate 
sufficient taxable income to utilize its deferred tax assets associated with deductible temporary 
differences, including tax losses and other tax credits. 
 
ii.Useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment 
Useful lives and residual values of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are 
used to determine amortization and depreciation expense of such assets and are determined 
with the assistance of internal and external specialists, as deemed necessary.  
 
Useful lives and residual values are reviewed periodically at least once a year, based on the 
current conditions of the assets and the estimate of the period during which they will continue 
to generate economic benefits to the Company. If there are changes in the related estimate, 
measurement of the net carrying amount of assets and the corresponding depreciation expense 
are affected prospectively. 
 
iii.Measurements and disclosures at fair value 
Fair value is a measurement based on the price a market participant would be willing to 
receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability, and is not a measure specific to the 
Company. For some assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market 
information may be available. For other assets and liabilities, observable market transactions 
and market information may not be available. However, the purpose of a measurement at fair 
value in both cases is to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction to sell the asset or to 
transfer the liabilities would be carried out among the market participants at the date of 
measurement under current market conditions. 
 
When the price of an identical asset or liability is not observable, the Company determines the 
fair value using another valuation technique which maximizes the use of relevant observable 
information and minimizes the use of unobservable information. As the fair value is a 
measurement based on the market, it is measured using the assumptions that market 
participants would use when they assign a price to an asset or liability, including assumptions 
about risk. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
5 
 
iv.Impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill 
The carrying amount of long-lived assets is reviewed for impairment when situations or 
changes in circumstances indicate that it is not recoverable, except for goodwill which is 
reviewed on an annual basis. If there are indicators of impairment, a review is carried out to 
determine whether the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable value and whether it is 
impaired. The recoverable value is the highest of the asset’s fair value, less selling costs, and 
its value in use which is the present value of the future estimated cash flows generated by the 
asset. The value in use calculation requires the Company to estimate the future cash flows 
expected to arise from the asset and/or from the cash-generating unit and an appropriate 
discount rate in order to calculate present value. 
 
v.Employee retirement benefits  
The Company uses assumptions to determine the best estimate for its employee retirement 
benefits. Assumptions and estimates are established in conjunction with independent actuaries.  
These assumptions include: demographic hypotheses, discount rates and expected increases in 
remunerations and future employee service periods, among others. Although the assumptions 
are deemed appropriate, a change in such assumptions could affect the value of the employee 
benefit liability and the results of the period in which it occurs. 
 
vi.Expected credit losses on accounts receivable 
The expected credit losses on financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on 
the Company's historical experience of credit losses, adjusted for factors that are specific to 
each of the Company's customer and debtor groups, general economic conditions and 
Management's assessment both current and forecast conditions as of the reporting date, 
including the value of money when applicable. 
 
vii.Contingencies 
A contingent liability is defined as: 
 
• A possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence can only be 
confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not 
wholly within the control of the Company, or 
 
• A present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because:  
a. it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits 
will be required to settle the obligation; or  
b. the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. 
 
The assessment of such contingencies requires the exercise of significant judgments and 
estimates on the possible outcome of those future events. The Company assesses the 
probability of loss arising from lawsuits and other contingencies with the assistance of its legal 
advisors. These estimates are reconsidered periodically at each reporting period. 
 
viii. Uncertainties 
Pandemics or disease outbreaks, such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), may alter 
consumption and trade patterns, supply chains, and production processes, which could affect 
the Company’s business and results of operations.

e) 
COVID 
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 a Global pandemic. 
As a result, measures established by the federal, state and local authorities in Mexico and the 
United, that required the forced closure of certain activities considered non-essential 
(businesses, non-essential government agencies, educational sector, among others) which 
negatively affected the operations of some of the Company's customers. 
 
Currently globally we continue to experience the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 
variants and their peak waves of contagion challenged us. During 2021, the start of the global 
vaccination campaign which in the progressive reactivating economic and social activities. 
Authorities in Mexico and the United States continued to impose restrictive measures on 
mobility and economic reopening, although greater flexibility was undoubtedly observed as a 
result of progress in vaccination. This led to greater economic activity even in non-essential 
sectors. 
 
During 2022, 2021 and 2020, Management performed an analysis to measure the financial 
impact on the Company derived from the possible effects of COVID 19, which included the 
following: 
 
• Review of potential impairment of non-financial assets (including goodwill, right-of-use 
assets and property, plant and equipment) - Based on medium and long-term projections, a 
possible impairment in goodwill has not been identified in long-lived assets, except for 
intangible assets where an impairment of $18,930 and $5,459, was recognized during 2022 
and 2021, respectively, in the United States subsidiary, see note 16. 
• Inventory valuation - The Company has not had an impairment in the price of chicken and 
eggs. The Company qualified as an essential activity for which it has kept operations 
working normally, reinforcing sanitary measures in all work centers, in this way it has 
fulfilled its commitments to its customers. During 2022 there were no significant impacts, 
during 2021, the Hotel sector improved, but without reaching pre-pandemic levels and 
during 2020, the Hotel sector was the most affected in sales volume, for which the 
Company directed the volume to other channels such as self-services, rotisserie chains, 
public market and live chicken.  
• During 2022, 2021 and 2020 in the acquisition of raw materials, even when there was 
volatility in the dollar exchange rate, the prices of the main raw materials such as corn and 
soybean paste were not affected in terms of cost and supply due to the pandemic, during 
2020 in some other raw materials were delayed in shipments mainly due to logistical 
problems of ships in the ports of China, but without significantly affecting the Company's 
productive activities. 
• Provision for expected losses - The estimate for expected credit losses was reviewed and 
based on this analysis, Management considered that the allowance for doubtful accounts is 
sufficient to support an increase in credit risk for certain clients. During 2022 there were 
no significant impacts, during certain months of the year 2021 and 2020, the level of the 
accounts receivable portfolio increased based on agreed terms and continues to be 
recovered considering the payment plans. 
• Measurement at fair value - investments recognized at fair value consider all relevant 
market factors for their proper valuation. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
7 
• Breaches of agreements – The Company has fulfilled its commitments to suppliers and 
customers due to the fact that, as an essential sector, it has maintained its operations 
working normally, complying with the health protocols established by the competent 
authorities and due to its solid financial position. 
• Going concern - The Company qualified as an essential activity in the markets it operates 
in and continues to operate normally with full operations in its farms, plants, distribution 
centers, logistics, supply chain and offices, despite partially working remotely in some of 
its corporate locations. Management has also implemented strict additional measures to 
guarantee the well-being of clients, suppliers and workers, as well as the quality and safety 
of its products, working in coordination with the health authorities and attending to all the 
recommendations issued by them. 
• Labor relations have not been affected and no changes were made to contractual 
agreements with employees as the Company continues to operate normally. 
• Liquidity risk management - The Company has sufficient liquidity to continue assuming its 
current and long-term commitments. 
• Insurance recoveries related to business interruptions - The Company has insurance 
policies to cover business continuity, however, it is not expected that they will be used 
because it will continue to operate normally as it is considered to be an essential activity. 
• Income tax considerations - So far, no adverse tax impact is anticipated as a result of the 
pandemic. 
 
As the products that the Company manufactures and its industry is considered essential, there 
were no significant adverse effects on its consolidated position and financial performance 
resulting from COVID-19. 
 
The impact of COVID-19 on the Company's operational and financial performance during 
2022 and 2021 improved compared to 2020. In addition, the Company continues with the 
necessary measures to mitigate the residual risks caused by the pandemic. 
 
In October 2022, the Company participated in the Opening Agreement Against Inflation and 
High Costs (“APECIC” for its Spanish acronym) that was signed between the Federal 
Executive and some companies, under which Bachoco assumed its commitment to maintain 
prices of some of its basic basket products only in the self-service channel and until December 
31, 2022, guaranteeing their health, safety and quality at all times. 
 
As the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company does not 
consider that it should substantially modify its budgets and / or financial projections or 
recognize significant losses in the valuation of its monetary and non-monetary assets. 
However, there is no guarantee that in the future the financial situation could be affected if the 
negative effects of the disruption to the national and global economy are significantly altered. 
 
f) 
Labor Reform in Mexico  
On April 23, 2021, various labor and tax provisions regarding labor subcontracting were 
published, which implied the elimination of the group's service providers, except in specific 
cases. Due to the foregoing, the Company in July 2021 carried out the employer substitution 
for the transfer of personnel from its service providers to its operating companies in which the 
employees directly participate, all these subsidiaries of Industrias Bachoco S.A.B. of C.V. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
8 
Due to the above in July 2021 the merger of these service providers with Bachoco S.A. de 
C.V. was carried out. As a result of the merger, there were no significant tax effects or 
significant effects on the labor liabilities of the pension plan. 
 
g) 
Issuance of new IFRS  
i. New and amended IFRS that affect reported balances and/or disclosures in consolidated 
financial statements 
In the current year, the Company adopted a series of new and amended IFRS issued by the 
IASB which went into effect on January 1, 2022, as it relates to its consolidated financial 
statements. 
 
Amendments to IFRS 3 - Reference to the Conceptual Framework 
The amendments update IFRS 3 so that it can refer to the 2018 Conceptual Framework instead 
of the 1989 Framework. They also added a requirement that, for obligations within the scope 
of IAS 37, a buyer applies IAS 37 to determine whether the acquisition date is a present 
obligation or exists as a result of a past event. For liens that are within the scope of IFRIC 21 - 
Liens, the buyer applies IFRIC 21 to determine whether the obligation gives rise to a liability 
to pay the lien that occurred at the acquisition date.  
 
Finally, the amendments add an explicit statement that the buyer will not recognize a 
contingent asset acquired from a business combination. 
 
Its adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in 
these consolidated financial statements. 
 
Amendments to IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment - Economic benefits before the 
intended use. 
The amendments prohibit the deduction from the cost of an asset of property, plant or 
equipment of any revenue from selling the asset after it is ready for use, for example, revenue 
while the asset is being brought to the location and the necessary refurbishment is being 
carried out to make it operable in the manner intended by management. Accordingly, an entity 
should recognize those sales revenues and costs in profit or loss. The entity measures the costs 
of these items in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories. 
 
The amendments clarify the meaning of ‘testing whether an asset is functioning properly’. IAS 
16 now specifies this as an assessment in which the physical and technical performance of the 
asset is capable of being used in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental or 
other, or administrative purposes. 
 
If not presented separately in the statement of comprehensive income, the financial statements 
must disclose the amounts of revenues and costs in income related to items that are not an 
outflow from the entity's ordinary activities in the line item(s) in the statement of 
comprehensive income where revenues and costs are included. 
 
The modifications are applied retrospectively, but only to items of property, plant and 
equipment that are brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be able to 
operate as Management intends on or after the beginning of the period in which the entity's 
financial statements in which the modifications are first applied. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
9 
The Company shall recognize the cumulative effect of the initial application of the 
amendments as a balance sheet adjustment to retained earnings (or an appropriate component 
of equity) at the beginning of the earliest period presented.  
 
Its adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in 
these consolidated financial statements. 
 
Amendments to IAS 37 - Onerous Contracts - Costs of Fulfilling a Contract 
The amendments specify that the ‘costs of fulfilling’ a contract comprise ‘costs directly related 
to the contract’. Costs that relate directly to a contract consist of incremental costs and costs of 
fulfilling a contract (e.g., labor or materials) and the allocation of other costs that relate 
directly to fulfilling a contract (such as the allocation of depreciation to items of property, 
plant and equipment to fulfill the contract). 
 
The amendments apply to contracts in which the entity has not yet complied with all of its 
obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity applies the 
amendments for the first time. Comparatives should not be restated. Instead, an entity should 
recognize the cumulative effect of the initial application of the amendments as a balance sheet 
adjustment to retained earnings or such other component of equity, as appropriate, for the date 
of initial application. 
 
The adoption of these amendments had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial 
statements. 
 
Annual Amendments to IFRS standards 2018-2020 
The Annual Amendments include amendments to four standards. 
 
IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, the amendment 
provides additional relief for a subsidiary that adopts for the first time after its parent with 
respect to accounting for cumulative translation differences. As a result of the amendments, a 
subsidiary using the IFRS 1: D16(a) exception may now elect to measure the cumulative 
translation effects of foreign operations at the carrying amount that is included in the parent's 
consolidated statements, based on the parent's date of transition to IFRS, if there were no 
adjustments for consolidation procedures and for the effects of business combinations in 
which the parent acquired the subsidiary. A similar election is available for an associate or 
joint venture that uses the exception in IFRS 1: D16(a).  
 
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, the amendment clarifies that when applying the ‘10%’ test to 
assess whether a financial liability should be derecognized, an entity includes only the paid 
fees or received between the entity (the borrower) and the lender, including paid fees or 
received by the entity or the lender. The amendments are applied prospectively to 
modifications or changes that occur on or after the date the entity first applies the amendment.  
 
IFRS 16 Leases, the amendments eliminate the figure of reimbursement for leasehold 
improvements. As the amendments to IFRS 16 are only in respect of an illustrative example, 
no commencement date has been established. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
10 
IAS 41 Agriculture, the amendments remove the requirement in IAS 41 for entities to exclude 
cash flows for tax purposes when measuring fair value. This aligns the fair value measurement 
in IAS 41 with the requirements of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement to be consistent with 
cash flows and discount rates and allows preparers to determine whether cash flows and 
discount rates are used on a pre-tax or after-tax basis as is more appropriate to estimate fair 
value. The amendments are applied prospectively, i.e., the fair value measurement on or after 
the initial date of application of the amendments applied to the entity.  
 
The adoption of these amendments had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial 
statements. 
 
ii. New IFRS issued but not yet effective  
As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not applied the 
following new and revised IFRS that have been issued but are not yet effective. 
 
IFRS 17  
 
 
 
Insurance Contracts 
IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (amendments) Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its 
associate or joint venture 
Amendments to IAS 1

from a single transaction. 
Amendments to IAS 1  
 
Classification of debt with covenants. 
 
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts 
IFRS 17 establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and 
disclosure of insurance contracts and replaces IFRS 4 - Insurance contracts. 
 
IFRS 17 describes a general model, which is modified for insurance contracts with direct 
participation features, which is described as the variable rate approach. The general model is 
simplified if certain criteria are met when measuring the liability for remaining coverage using 
the premium allocation method. 
 
The general model will use current assumptions to estimate the amount, timing and 
uncertainty of future cash flows and will explicitly measure the cost of that uncertainty, taking 
into account market interest rates and the impact of options and guarantees of the insured. 
 
In June 2020, the IASB issued the amendments to IFRS 17 to address the concerns and 
implementation of the changes that were identified after IFRS 17 was published. The 
amendments defer the date of initial application of IFRS 17 (incorporating the amendments) to 
the annual report beginning on or after January 1, 2023. At the same time, the IASB issued a 
Temporary Extension of Exemption to Apply IFRS 9 (Amendments to IFRS 4) that extends 
the expiration date of the temporary exception to apply IFRS 9 to IFRS 4 for annual periods 
beginning on or after January 1, 2023. 
 
In December 2021, the IASB issued Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 Comparative 
Information (Amendments to IFRS 17) to address implementation challenges that were 
identified after IAS 17 was published. The amendments address challenges in presenting 
comparative information. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
11 
IFRS 17 should be applied retrospectively unless it is not practical, in which case the 
retrospective approach will be modified, or the fair value approach will be applied. 
 
In accordance with the transition requirements, the date of initial application is the beginning 
of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the Standard and, the transition 
date is the beginning of the period immediately preceding the date of the initial application. 
 
Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and 
its associate or joint venture  
The amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 treat with situations where there is a sale or 
contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Specifically, the 
amendments establish that gains or losses resulting from the loss of control of a subsidiary that 
does not contain a business in a transaction with an associate or a joint venture that is 
accounted for using the equity method, are recognized in profit or loss. of the parent only to 
the extent that the participation of unrelated investors in that associate or joint venture. 
Similarly, profit and losses resulting from the remeasurement of investments retained in any 
former subsidiary (that has become an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using 
the equity method) at fair value, are recognized in profit. or loss of the former parent, only to 
the extent of the participation of unrelated investors in the new associate or joint venture. 
 
The effective date of the amendments has not yet been set by the IASB; however, early 
application is permitted. 
 
Amendments to IAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current and Non-Current  
The amendments to IAS 1 affect only the presentation of liabilities as current and non-current 
in the statement of financial position and not the amount or timing at which any asset, liability, 
income or expense is recognized, or the information disclosed about those items. 
 
The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current and non-current is based 
on the rights to exist at the end of the reporting period, specify that the classification is not 
affected by expectations about whether the entity will exercise the right to defer settlement of 
the liability, explain that rights exist if there are covenants to be met at the end of the reporting 
period, and introduce a definition of ‘arrangement’ to make it clear that the arrangement refers 
to the transfer of cash from the counterparty, equity instruments, other assets or services. 
 
The amendments are applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 
1, 2023, with early application permitted. 
 
Amendments to IAS 1 and the IFRS practice statements 2 Disclosure of Accounting Policies 
The amendments change the requirements to IAS 1 with respect to the disclosure of 
accounting policies. The amendment replaces the terms “significant accounting policies” with 
“information on material accounting policies”. Information on accounting policies is material 
when it is considered that, together with other information included in the financial statements 
of an entity, they may influence the decisions of the primary users of the financial statements 
in general use and that they are made in the basis of those financial statements. 
 
The supporting paragraphs in IAS 1 are amended to clarify accounting policy information that 
relates to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions that are themselves material. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
12 
To support these modifications, the IASB has developed guidance and examples to explain 
and demonstrate the application of the “4-step materiality process” described in the IFRS 
practice 2 statements. 
 
The amendments to IAS 1 are effective for the annual periods beginning on January 1, 2022, 
with the option of early application and are applied prospectively. The amendments to the 
IFRS Practice 2 statements do not contain an effective date or transition requirements. 
 
Amendments to IAS 8 Definition of accounting estimates 
The amendments replace the definition of a change in accounting estimates. Under the new 
definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in the financial statements that are 
subject to measurement uncertainty”. 
 
The definition of a change in accounting estimates was deleted. However, the IASB 
maintained the concept of changes in an accounting estimate in the standard with the 
following clarifications: 
 
• A change in an accounting estimate is the result of new information or a new development 
and is not the correction of an error. 
• The effects of a change in an input or a valuation technique used to develop an accounting 
estimate are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from a correction of 
prior period errors. 
 
The IASB added two examples (Example 4-5) to the IAS 8 Implementation Guide that 
accompanies the standard. The IASB has removed one example (example 3) as it could cause 
confusion from the amendments. 
 
The modifications are effective for the annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023 for 
changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates that occur on or after the 
beginning of said period with the option of early application. 
 
Amendments to IAS 12 Deferred taxes related to assets and liabilities arising from a single 
transaction. 
The amendments introduced an additional exception aside from the initial recognition 
exemption. In the amendments, an entity does not apply the initial recognition exception for 
transactions that give rise to taxable and deductible temporary differences. 
 
Depending on the applicable tax law, taxable and deductible temporary differences may occur 
on initial recognition of an asset and a liability in a transaction that is not a business 
combination and does not affect accounting or taxable profit. For example, it may occur with a 
recognition of a lease liability and the corresponding right-of-use asset applying IFRS 16 
Leases at the commencement date of a lease. 
 
Following the amendments to IAS 12, an entity is required to recognize deferred tax assets and 
liabilities, with the recognition of any deferred tax assets being subject to the recoverability 
criteria. 
 
The IASB also adds an illustrative example to IAS 12 that explains how the amendments 
apply. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
13 
The amendments apply to transactions that occur on or after the first comparative period of the 
period presented. Additionally, at the beginning of the first comparative period an entity 
recognizes: 
 
• A deferred tax asset (to the extent that it is probable that taxable income is available 
against the deductible temporary difference) and a deferred tax liability for all taxable and 
temporary deductions associated with: 
- Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities 
- Decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities that correspond to amounts 
recognized as part of the costs related to the asset. 
• The cumulative effect at the beginning of the application of the amendments as an 
adjustment in the opening balances of retained earnings (or some other component of 
capital, as applicable) to date. 
 
The amendments are effective for the annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023, with the 
option of early application. 
 
Amendments to IAS 1 Amendments to IAS 1 Classification of debt with covenants 
The amendments modify the information that an entity provides when its right to defer 
payment of a liability for at least twelve months is subject to compliance with agreements. The 
modifications also responded to the concerns of interested parties about the classification of 
such liability as current or non-current. 
 
The amendments to IAS 1 are effective for the annual periods beginning on January 1, 2024. 
 
The Company is in process of determining its conclusions, however, does not expect the 
adoption of the standards to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements in 
future periods. 
 
(3) 
Significant accounting policies 
The significant accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods 
presented in these consolidated financial statements.  
 
a) 
Basis of consolidation 
i. Subsidiaries 
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries 
are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences 
until the date that control is lost (see note 5). 
 
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the subsidiary 
companies up to December 31 of each year. Control is achieved when the Company: 
 
• 
Has power over the investee 
• 
It is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns derived from its participation in the 
investee 
• 
Has the ability to use his power to affect his returns 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
14 
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances 
indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above. 
 
Profits and losses of subsidiaries acquired or sold during the year are included in the 
consolidated statements of profit and loss and other comprehensive income from the 
acquisition date to the disposal date. 
 
Where necessary, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted to align their accounting 
policies with the Company’s consolidated accounting policies. 
 
ii. Transactions eliminated in consolidation 
Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized gains and losses arising from 
transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in preparing these 
consolidated financial statements.  
 
iii. Non-controlling interest 
Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are identified separately from the Company's capital 
in them. Non-controlling shareholders' interests that are current ownership interests that entitle 
their holders to a proportionate share of the net assets at liquidation may be initially measured 
at fair value or the proportionate share of non-controlling interest in the fair value of the 
identifiable net assets of the acquiree. The choice of measure is made acquisition by 
acquisition. Other non-controlling interests are initially measured at fair value.  
 
Post-acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those 
interests at initial recognition plus the participation of non-controlling interests in subsequent 
changes in capital. Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-controlling interests even 
if this results in non-controlling interests having a negative balance. 
 
iv. Business combinations 
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. For each business 
combination, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree is valued either at fair value or 
according to the proportionate interest in the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. 
 
In a business combination, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are 
recognized at their fair value on the date of acquisition, except that: 
 
• 
Deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit 
agreements are recognized and measured in accordance with IAS 12 and IAS 19, 
respectively. 
• 
Liabilities or equity instruments related to share. The acquiree's payment agreements or 
the Company's share-based payment agreements entered into to replace the acquiree's 
share-based payment agreements, are measured in accordance with IFRS 2 in the 
acquisition date. 
• 
Assets (or groups of assets) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 
are measured in accordance with that standard. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
15 
Goodwill is originally valued at cost and represents any excess of the transferred consideration 
over the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the net amount of identifiable acquired 
assets and assumed liabilities as of the acquisition date exceeds the sum of the consideration 
transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity and the fair value 
of the prior shareholding of the acquirer in the acquired entity (if any), any excess is 
immediately recognized in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other 
comprehensive income as a bargain purchase gain. 
 
Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, 
that the Company incurs related to a business combination are expensed as incurred. 
 
The payable contingent considerations are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. If the 
contingent consideration is classified as equity, then it is not re-measured and settlement is 
accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent 
consideration are recognized in profit and loss. 
 
The Company applies accounting for business combinations using the predecessor method in 
an entity under common control. The predecessor method consists of incorporating the book 
values of the acquired entity, which includes the goodwill recorded at the consolidated level 
with respect to the acquired entity. Any difference between the consideration paid by the 
Company and the book value of the net assets acquired at the subsidiary level is recognized in 
equity. 
 
b) 
Foreign currency 
i. Foreign currency transactions 
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the 
Company at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in 
foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to the functional currency at the 
exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain and loss on monetary items is the 
difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, 
adjusted for interest and principal payments during the period, and the amortized cost in 
foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. 
 
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated 
using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. 
 
ii. Translation of foreign operations 
Assets and liabilities, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, of 
foreign operations whose functional currency differs from the reporting currency, are 
translated into Mexican pesos at the exchange rates at the reporting date. Income and expenses 
are translated to pesos at the average exchange rate of the period of the transactions.  
 
Foreign currency differences associated with translating foreign operations into the reporting 
currency (Mexican peso) are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the 
foreign currency translation reserve in stockholders’ equity. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
16 
Exchange differences on monetary items receivable or payable to a foreign business, whose 
settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future (therefore, they are 
part of the net investment in the business business), that are initially recognized in other 
comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to income when the total or partial 
disposal of the net investment is made. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 
2020 the Company did not enter into such transactions.  
 
c) 
Financial instruments 
i. Financial assets 
Classification of financial assets 
The Company classifies and measures its financial assets under the following criteria: 
• The Company's debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortized cost if the 
financial asset is maintained in a business model whose objective is to hold financial 
assets with the objective of obtaining contractual cash flows; and the contractual terms of 
the financial asset give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are only principal and 
interest payments on the amount of the principal. 
• Furthermore, debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value through other 
comprehensive income if the financial asset is maintained within a business model whose 
objective is met by obtaining contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and the 
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise, on specific dates, to cash flows that are 
only principal and interest payments on the outstanding amount of the principal. 
• By default, all other financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value through profit 
and loss. 
 
Recognition and derecognition of financial assets 
Assets are initially recognized on the date of the contract in which the Company becomes a 
member of the contractual provisions of the instruments and they are initially valued at their 
fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of 
financial assets and liabilities (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or loss) 
are added to or reduced from the fair value of the financial assets or liabilities, where 
applicable, at initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of 
financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in 
profit or loss. 
 
All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade 
date. Regular purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require the 
delivery of assets within the period established by the regulation or usual practices in the 
market. 
 
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in full, either at amortized cost or 
fair value, according to the classification of financial assets. 
 
Financial assets of the Company include cash and cash equivalents, investment in securities at 
fair value through profit or loss and through other comprehensive income, derivative financial 
instruments and trade receivables. 
 
The Company initially recognizes accounts receivable and cash equivalents on the date that 
they arise. All other financial assets (including assets measured at fair value through profit and 
loss) are initially recognized on the trading date, which is the date that the Company becomes 
a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
17 
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to cash flows from 
the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction 
in which all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are substantially 
transferred. 
 
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the consolidated 
statement of financial position solely if the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts 
and intends either to settle them on a net basis of financial assets and liabilities or otherwise 
realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 
 
Cash and cash equivalents  
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and demand deposits or investments with 
original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date, which are subject to an 
insignificant risk of changes in their fair value and are used by the Company in the 
management of its short-term commitments. 
 
Receivables 
Receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an 
active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable 
transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, receivables are measured at amortized 
cost. Receivables comprise trade, due from related parties and other receivables. 
 
Impairment of financial assets 
The Company evaluates whether its financial assets accounted for at amortized cost and at fair 
value through other comprehensive income are impaired on the basis of losses due to expected 
credit losses. 
 
The amount of expected credit losses is updated on each reporting date to reflect changes in 
credit risk since the initial recognition of the respective financial instrument. 
 
The Company recognizes lifetime expected credit losses for commercial accounts receivable, 
contract assets and accounts receivable for leases. The expected credit losses on these financial 
assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Company's historical experience of 
credit losses, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, the general economic 
conditions and Management’s assessment, of both the current and forecast conditions at the 
reporting date, including the time value of money when appropriate. 
 
For all other financial instruments, the Company recognizes the lifetime expected credit loss 
when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition. However, 
if the credit risk in the financial instrument has not increased significantly since the initial 
recognition, the Company measures the provision for losses for that financial instrument in an 
amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses. 
 
The Company considers a significant increase in credit risk to have occurred when the 
financial investment asset’s credit rating falls to the level of speculation, or when the rating 
provided by external ratings agencies has decreased by more than 2 levels with respect to the 
level at which it was acquired. Additionally, the Company considers that default has occurred 
when a financial asset is more than 90 days past-due, unless there is reasonable and reliable 
information demonstrating that a later default criterion is more appropriate.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
18 
 
ii. Financial liabilities 
Debt and/or equity instruments are classified as financial liabilities or as equity according to 
the substance of the contractual agreement and the definitions of liability and equity. 
 
All financial instrument liabilities are initially recognized on the trade date, which is the date 
that the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 
 
The Company derecognizes a financial instrument liability when its contractual obligations are 
met, cancelled or expire. 
 
The Company has the following non-derivative financial instrument liabilities: short-term and 
long-term debt, and trade and other payables and accounts payable to related parties. 
 
The aforementioned financial liabilities are originally recognized at fair value, plus costs 
directly attributable to the transaction. Subsequently, these financial liabilities are measured at 
amortized cost using the effective interest method or at fair value through profit or loss during 
their contractual term. 
 
iii. Derivative financial instruments 
The Company participates in a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its 
exposure to exchange rate risks, including currency forward contracts. 
 
Derivative financial instruments entered into for fair value hedging or for trading purposes are 
initially recognized at fair value; any attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit and 
loss as incurred. Subsequent to the initial recognition, such derivative financial instruments are 
measured at fair value, and changes in such value are immediately recognized in profit and 
loss unless the derivative is designated and is effective as a hedging instrument, in which case, 
its recognition in profit and loss will depend on the nature of the hedging. 
 
Fair value of derivative financial instruments that are traded in recognized financial markets is 
based on quotes issued by these markets; when a derivative financial instrument is traded in 
the “Over the Counter” market, the fair value is determined based on internal models and 
market inputs accepted in the financial environment. 
 
A derivative with a positive fair value is recognized as a financial asset, while a derivative 
with a negative fair value is recognized as a financial liability. Derivatives are not offset in the 
financial statements unless the Company has both the legal right and the intention to offset. A 
derivative is presented as a non-current asset or a non-current liability if the remaining 
maturity of the instrument is more than 12 months and it is not expected to be realized or 
settled within 12 months. Other derivatives are presented as current assets or current liabilities. 
The Company analyzes if there are embedded derivatives that should be segregated from the 
host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host 
contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related.  
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
19 
A separate instrument with the same terms as those of the embedded derivative meets the 
definition of a derivative, and the combined instrument is not measured at fair value through 
profit and loss. Changes in fair value of the separable embedded derivatives are immediately 
recognized in profit and loss.  
 
iv.Hedge Accounting 
The Company designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments with respect to foreign 
currency risk with fair value hedges, cash flow hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign 
operations. Firm commitments that hedge foreign currency risk are accounted for as cash flow 
hedges. 
 
At the beginning of the hedge relationship, the Company documents the relationship between 
the hedging instrument and the hedged item, together with its risk management objectives and 
its strategy to carry out various hedging transactions. In addition, at the beginning of the hedge 
and on an ongoing basis, the Company documents whether the instrument is effective to offset 
changes in the fair values or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, 
which is when the hedging relationships comply with all of the following coverage 
effectiveness requirements: 
 
• There is an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item; 
• The effect of credit risk does not dominate the value of the changes resulting from the 
economic relationship; and 
• The coverage ratio of the coverage ratio is the same as that resulting from the amount of 
the hedged item that the Company actually covers and the amount of the hedging 
instrument that the Company actually uses to cover that amount of the hedged item. 
 
If the hedging instrument no longer meets the effectiveness requirement related to the hedging 
relationship, but the risk management objective for that designated hedging relationship 
remains the same, the Company adjusts the hedging relationship (that is, rebalances) so that it 
meets the qualification criteria again. 
 
The Company designates the entire change in the fair value of a forward contract (that is, it 
includes the forward elements) as the hedging instrument for all its hedging relationships that 
involve forward contracts. 
 
The Company designates only the intrinsic value of option contracts as a hedged item, that is, 
excluding the time value of the option. Changes in the fair value of the option are recognized 
in other comprehensive income and are accumulated in the cost of the hedge reserve. If the 
hedged item is related to the transaction, the fair value is reclassified to profit or loss when the 
hedged item affects the profit or loss. If the hedged item is related to the period of time, then 
the accumulated amount in the cost of the hedge reserve is reclassified to profit or loss in a 
rational manner: the Company amortizes the accumulated hedge reserve to profit or loss using 
the straight-line method.  
 
These reclassified amounts are recognized in profit or loss on the same line as the hedged 
item. If the hedged item is a non-financial item, the accumulated amount in the cost of the 
hedge reserve is eliminated directly from equity and is included in the initial carrying amount 
of the recognized non-financial item. In addition, if the Company expects that part or all of the 
accumulated loss in the cost of the hedge reserve will not be recovered in the future, that 
amount will be reclassified immediately to results. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
20 
 
v. Capital stock 
Ordinary shares 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance 
of ordinary shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. 
 
Stock repurchase  
When share capital recognized as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, 
which includes directly attributable costs, net of any tax effects, is recognized as a deduction 
from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented in the 
reserve for repurchase of shares. When treasury shares are sold or are re-issued subsequently, 
the amount received as well as the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is recognized 
in equity. 
 
d) 
Property, plant and equipment 
i. Recognition and measurement 
Property, plant and equipment, except for land, are recorded at acquisition cost less 
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Land is measured at the 
acquisition costs less any accumulated impairment losses. 
 
Acquisition cost includes the purchase price, as well as any cost directly attributable to the 
acquisition of the asset, including all costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the 
location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by 
Management. 
 
When components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, 
they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. 
 
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized at the time of disposal or when no 
future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gains or 
losses on the sale of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing 
the proceeds from the sale with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are 
recognized net under “other income (expenses), net” in profit and loss for the year. 
 
ii.Subsequent costs 
The replacement cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is capitalized if the future 
economic benefits associated with the cost are expected to flow to the Company and the 
related cost is reliably determined. The carrying amount of the replaced item is written off 
from the accounting records. Maintenance and repair expenses related to property, plant and 
equipment are expensed as incurred. 
 
iii. Depreciation 
Depreciation is calculated over the cost of the asset less its residual value, using the straight 
line method, based on the estimated useful life of the assets. Depreciation is recognized in 
profit and loss beginning from the time when the assets are available for use.

e) 
Goodwill 
Goodwill arises as a result of the acquisition of a business over which control is obtained and 
is measured at cost less cumulative impairment losses; it is subject to annual tests for 
impairment. 
 
f) 
Intangible assets 
They are comprised of trade names and customer relationships derived from the acquisition of 
businesses in the United States of America. The cost of intangible assets acquired through a 
business combination represents their fair value at the acquisition date and they are recognized 
separately from goodwill. Subsequently, they are valued at cost less amortization and 
accumulated impairment losses. 
 
Intangible assets are classified as having a definite or indefinite life. Those with a defined life 
are amortized under the straight-line method during their estimated life and when there are 
impairment indicators, they are tested for impairment. The amortization methods and the 
useful life of the assets are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, at the date of each 
consolidated statement of financial position. Amortization is charged to income in the general 
expenses category. Those with an indefinite life are not amortized, but are subject to 
impairment tests at least annually. 
 
g) 
Biological assets 
Biological assets whose fair value can be measured reliably are measured at fair value less 
costs of sale, with any change therein recognized in profit and loss. Costs of sale include all 
costs that would be necessary to sell the assets, excluding finance costs and income taxes. 
 
The Company’s biological assets consist of growing poultry, poultry in its different production 
stages, hatching eggs, breeder pigs, and growing pigs. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
22 
When fair value cannot be reliably, verifiably and objectively determined, assets are valued at 
production cost less accumulated depreciation, and any cumulative impairment loss. 
Depreciation related to biological assets forms part of the cost of inventories and current 
biological assets and is ultimately recognized within cost of sales in the statement of profit and 
loss and other comprehensive income. 
 
Depreciation of poultry and breeder pigs is estimated based on the expected future life of such 
assets and is calculated on a straight-line basis. 
 
 
 
Expected average useful life

Biological assets are classified as current and non-current assets, based on the nature of such 
assets and their purpose, whether for commercialization or for reproduction and production.  
 
h) 
Leased assets 
The Company evaluates whether a contract is or contains a lease at the beginning of the 
contract term. A lease is defined as a contract that grants the right to control the use of an 
identified asset, for a specified period, in exchange for consideration. The Company 
recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, with respect to all the lease 
agreements in which it operates as lessee, except in the following cases: short-term leases 
(defined as leases with a term of lease less than 12 months); low-value asset leases (defined as 
asset leases with an individual market value of less than 5 thousand dollars); and, the lease 
contracts whose payments are variable (without any fixed contractually defined payment). For 
these contracts that exclude the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, the 
Company recognizes rental payments as a straight-line operating expense during the lease 
term. 
 
The right-of-use asset is made up of discounted lease payments at present value; direct costs of 
obtaining a lease; advance lease payments; and the dismantling or asset removal obligations. 
The Company depreciates the right-of-use asset over the shorter period of the lease term and 
the useful life of the underlying asset; In this sense, when a purchase option in the lease is 
likely to be exercised, the right-of-use asset depreciates over its useful life. Depreciation 
begins on the start date of the lease. 
 
The lease liability is measured at initial recognition by discounting future minimum income 
payments at present value according to a term, using a discount rate that represents the cost of 
obtaining financing in an amount equivalent to the value of the contract's income, for the 
acquisition of the underlying asset, in the same currency and for a period similar to the 
corresponding contract (incremental borrowing rate). When the contract payments contain 
non-lease components (services), the Company has chosen not to separate them and to 
measure all payments as a single lease component; however, for the rest of the asset classes, 
the Company measures the lease liability only considering the payments of components that 
are rents, while the services implicit in the payments are recognized directly in results as 
operating expenses. 
 
To determine the term of the lease, the Company considers the mandatory term, including the 
probability of exercising any right to extend the term and / or an early termination. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
23 
Subsequently, the lease liability is measured by increasing the book value to reflect the interest 
on the lease liability (using the effective interest method) and reducing the book value to 
reflect the rental payments made. 
 
When there are modifications to the lease payments for inflation, the Company remits the 
lease liability from the date the new payments are known, without reconsidering the discount 
rate. However, if the modifications are related to the term of the contract or change in 
circumstances that results in a change in the assessment of the exercise of a purchase option, 
the Company re-evaluates the discount rate in the measurement of the liability. Any increase 
or decrease in the value of the lease liability subsequent to this re-measurement is recognized 
by increasing or decreasing to the same extent, as the case may be, the value of the right-of-
use asset. 
 
Finally, the lease liability is derecognized at the time the Company pays all of the contract's 
payments. When the Company determines that it is probable that it will exercise an early 
termination from the contract that merits a cash outlay, said consideration is part of the re-
measurement of the liability mentioned in the preceding paragraph; however, in those cases in 
which the early termination does not imply a cash outlay, the Company pays the lease liability 
and the corresponding right of use asset, recognizing the difference between the two 
immediately in the consolidated statement of income. 
 
i) 
Inventories 
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories 
is based on average cost, and includes expenditures incurred for acquiring inventories, 
production or transformation costs, and other costs incurred for bringing them to their present 
location and condition. 
 
Agricultural products derived from biological asses are processed chickens, processed pork, 
and commercial eggs. 
 
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the 
costs necessary to make the sale. 
 
Cost of sales represents cost of inventories at the time of sale, increased, if applicable, by 
reductions in inventory to its net realizable value, if lower than cost, during the year. 
 
The Company records the necessary reductions in the value of its inventories for impairment, 
obsolescence, slow movement and other factors that may indicate that the use or performance 
of the items that are part of the inventory may be lower than the carrying value. 
 
j) 
Impairment 
Non-financial assets 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets, other than inventories, 
biological assets and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine 
whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the 
recoverable amount of the asset is estimated or cash generating units, as the lowest between its 
value in use and the fair value less cost of sale. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets 
are tested annually for impairment on the same dates. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
24 
The Company defines the cash generating units and also estimates the periodicity and cash 
flows that they should generate. Subsequent changes in the group of cash-generating units, or 
changes in the assumptions that support the cash flow estimates or the discount rate could 
impact the carrying amounts of the respective asset. 
 
The main assumptions for developing estimates of recoverable amounts are the estimates the 
future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate 
in order to calculate its present value. The Company estimates cash flow projections 
considering current market conditions, determination of future prices of goods and volumes of 
production and sales. In addition, for the purposes of the discount and perpetuity growth rates, 
the Company uses indicators of market and expectations of long-term growth in the markets in 
which it operates. 
 
The Company estimates a discount rate before taxes for the purposes of the goodwill 
impairment test that reflects the risk of the corresponding cash-generating units and that 
enables the calculation of present value of expected future cash flows, as well as to reflect 
risks that were not included in the cash flow projection assumptions and premises. The 
discount rate that the Company estimates is based on the weighted average cost of capital. In 
addition, the discount rate estimated by the Company reflects the return that market 
participants would require if they had made a decision about an equivalent asset, as well as the 
expected generation of cash flow, time, and risk-and-return profiles. 
 
The Company annually reviews the circumstances which led to an impairment loss arising 
from cash-generating units to determine whether such circumstances have been changed and 
that may result in the reversal of previously recognized impairment losses. An impairment loss 
in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other long-lived assets, an impairment loss is 
reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying 
amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the 
impairment loss had not been recognized. 
 
Impairment losses are recognized in profit and loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect 
of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill 
allocated to the cash-generating unit (or group of CGUs), and subsequently to reduce the 
carrying amount of the other long-lived assets within the cash-generating unit (or group of 
CGUs) on a pro rata basis. 
 
k) 
Held-for-sale assets 
Held for sale assets mainly consist of foreclosed assets. Foreclosed assets are initially recorded 
at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or the net carrying amount of the related account 
receivable. 
 
Immediately before being classified as held-for-sale, assets are valued according to the 
Company’s accounting policies in accordance with the applicable IFRS. Subsequently, held-
for-sale assets are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. 
Impairment losses on initial classification of held-for-sale assets and subsequent 
remeasurement gains and losses are recognized in profit and loss. Recognized gains shall not 
exceed cumulative impairment losses previously recognized. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
25 
 
l) 
Other assets 
Other long-term assets primarily include advances for the purchase of property, plant and 
equipment, investments in insurance policies and security deposits. 
 
The Company owns life insurance policies of some of the former stockholders of Bachoco 
USA, LLC (foreign subsidiary). The Company records these policies at their net cash 
surrender value which approximates its fair value (see note 17). 
 
m) 
Employee benefits 
The Company grants to its employees in Mexico and abroad, different types of benefits as 
described below and as detailed in note 22. 
 
i.Defined contribution plan 
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays 
fixed contributions to a separate entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay 
further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as 
an employee benefit expense in profit and loss in the periods during which the related services 
are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that 
the Company has the right to a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available. 
Contributions to a defined contribution plan due more than 12 months after the end of the 
period in which the employees render the service are discounted at present value. 
 
ii. Defined benefit plan 
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution 
plan. It is funded by contributions made by the Company and is intended to meet the 
Company’s labor obligations to its employees. 
 
The Company´s net obligations in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for 
each plan, estimating the amount of the future benefit that the employees have earned in return 
for their service in the current and prior years; that benefit is discounted to determine its 
present value, and is reduced by the fair value of the plan assets. The discount rate is the yield 
at the end of the reporting period on high quality corporate bonds (or governmental bonds in 
the instance that a deep market does not exist for high quality corporate bonds, which is the 
case in Mexico) that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company´s 
obligations and that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits are expected to be 
paid. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate at the beginning of the period to 
the net defined benefit liability or asset. Defined benefit costs are categorized as follows: 
 
• 
Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses 
on curtailments and settlements) 
• 
Net interest expense or income 
 
The Company presents service cost as part of operating income in the consolidated statements 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses for reduction of 
service are accounted for as past service costs.  
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
26 
The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit 
method. When the calculation results in a benefit to the Company, the recognized asset is 
limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the 
plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans. When the benefits of a plan are 
modified or improved, the portion of the improved benefits related to past services by 
employees is recognized in profit and loss on the earlier of the following dates: when there is a 
modification or curtailment to the plan, or when the Company recognizes the related 
restructuring costs or termination benefits. 
 
Remeasurement adjustments, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of changes to 
the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), are reflected 
immediately with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period 
in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected 
immediately in equity and is not reclassified to profit or loss. 
 
iii. Short-term benefits 
Short-term employee benefits are valued on a non-discounted basis and are expensed as the 
respective services are rendered. 
 
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under the short-term cash bonus 
plans or statutory employee profit sharing (PTU for its acronym in Spanish), if the Company 
has a legal or constructive obligation to pay such amounts as a result of prior services rendered 
by the employee, and the obligation may be reliably estimated. 
 
On December 27, 2022, the decree was published by means of which articles 76 and 78 of the 
Federal Labor Law (“LFT” for its acronym in Spanish) for Mexico were amended, which will 
take effect on January 1, 2023. The main changes caused by this labor reform consider the 
increase in the minimum annual vacation period for workers who have more than one year of 
service. 
 
The Company evaluated the accounting impacts generated by this labor reform and 
determined that the increases in the vacation and vacation premium provision, as a result of 
the increase in vacation days, were not significant as of December 31, 2022. 
 
iv. Termination benefits from constructive obligations 
Until 2020 the Company recognizes, as a defined benefit plan, a constructive obligation from 
past practices. The liability accrues based on the services rendered by the employee. Payment 
of this benefit is made in one installment at the time that the employee voluntarily ceases 
working for the Company. 
 
n) 
Provisions 
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or 
constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of 
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
27 
When the effect of time value of money is significant, the amount of the provision is the 
present value of the disbursements expected to be necessary to settle the obligation. The 
discount rate applied is determined before taxes and reflects market conditions at the reporting 
date and takes into account the specific risk of the relevant liability, if any. The unwinding of 
the present value discount is recognized as a financial cost. 
 
o) 
Interests in joint operations 
A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the 
arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the 
arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, 
which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of 
the parties sharing control. 
 
The Company as a joint operator recognizes, in relation to its interest in a joint operation: its 
assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; its liabilities, including its share of any 
liabilities incurred jointly; its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the 
joint operation; its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation, and 
its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.  
 
The Company accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest 
in a joint operation in accordance with the IFRSs applicable to such assets, liabilities, revenues 
and expenses. 
 
The Company has joint operations derived from the agreements for the development of its 
biological assets. For such operations, the Company accounts for its biological assets, its 
obligations derived from technical support, as well as the expenses it incurs with respect to the 
joint operations. The live poultry produced by the joint operation is ultimately used internally 
by the Company and may be sold by the Company to third parties. As a result, the joint 
operation itself does not generate any revenues with third parties. 
 
p) 
Revenues 
Revenues from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities are measured at the fair 
value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume 
rebates. Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence exists, usually in the form of an 
executed sales agreement, that control over the product has been transferred to the customer. If 
it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, the 
discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue.  
 
The Company generally does not accept sales returns. No asset is recognized for product 
returns, due to the fact that such products are not expected to be sold or recovered in another 
manner given that they are perishable. To the extent sales returns occur, the product returns 
are made simultaneously with the delivery and acceptance of the product (same day). 
 
The Company has concluded that all performance obligations are satisfied at the time of 
delivery of the product to the customer. 
 
The Company has a variety of credit terms for its various distribution channels, all of which 
have short terms, consistent with market and industry practices. Accordingly, there are no 
financing components. A significant portion of sales in Mexico are collected in cash on 
delivery. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
28 
 
q) 
Financial income and costs and dividend income 
Financial income comprises interest income from funds invested, fair value changes on 
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and foreign currency exchange gains. 
Interest income is recognized in profit and loss, using the effective interest method. Dividend 
income is recognized in profit and loss on the date that the Company´s right to receive the 
payment is established. 
 
Financial costs comprise interest expense for borrowings, foreign currency exchange losses 
and fair value changes on financial assets at fair value through profit and loss.  
 
Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production 
of a qualifying asset are recognized in profit and loss using the effective interest method. 
 
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of 
qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get 
ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the costs of those assets, until such time as 
the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on 
the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying 
assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. 
 
Exchange gains and losses are reported on a net basis. 
 
r) 
Income taxes 
Income tax expense is comprised of current and deferred tax. Current income taxes and 
deferred income taxes are recognized in profit and loss provided they do not relate to a 
business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive 
income. 
 
Current income tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for 
the fiscal year, which can be applied to taxable income from previous years, using tax rates 
enacted or substantively enacted in each jurisdiction at the reporting date, plus any adjustment 
to taxes payable with respect to previous years. Current income tax payable also includes any 
tax liability arising from the payment of dividends. 
 
Deferred income tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts used for tax purposes.  
 
Deferred income tax is not recognized for: 
 
• the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business 
combination and did not affect either accounting or taxable profit or loss; 
 
• differences related to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that the 
Company is able to control the reversal date, and the reversion is not expected to take place 
in the near future. 
 
• taxable temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
29 
Deferred income tax is determined by applying the tax rates that are expected to apply in the 
period in which the temporary differences will reverse, based on the regulations enacted or 
substantively enacted at the reporting date. 
 
The measurement of deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax consequences 
derived from the manner in which the Company expects to recover or settle the carrying 
amounts of its assets and liabilities. 
 
In determining the amount of current and deferred income tax, the Company takes into 
account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes and interest may be 
due. The Company believes that the balance for its income tax liabilities are appropriate for all 
tax years subject to be reviewed by the tax authorities based on its assessment of several 
factors, including the interpretation of the tax laws and prior experience. 
 
A deferred income tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible 
temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be 
available against which they can be utilized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed at each 
reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is not probable that the related tax benefit 
will be realized. 
 
s) 
Earnings per share 
The Company presents information on basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) related to 
its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the profit and loss attributable to the 
holders of the Company’s common shares by the weighted average number of outstanding 
ordinary shares during the period, adjusted for treasury shares held. Diluted EPS is determined 
by adjusting the profit and loss attributable to the holders of the ordinary shares and the 
outstanding weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for treasury shares held, for 
the potential dilutive effects of all ordinary shares, including convertible instruments and 
options on shares granted to employees. At December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company 
has no outstanding instruments that imply the existence of potential ordinary shares, for which 
reason basic and diluted EPS are the same. 
 
t) 
Segment information 
An operating segment is a component of the Company: i) that is engaged in business activities 
from which revenues and expenses may be obtained and incurred, including revenues and 
expenses related to transactions with any of the other components of the Company, ii) whose 
results are reviewed periodically by the chief operating decision maker for the purpose of 
resource allocation and assessment of segment performance, and iii) for which discrete 
financial information exists. 
 
The Company discloses reportable segments based on operating segments whose revenues 
exceed 10% of the combined revenues from all segments, whose absolute value of profit or 
loss exceeds 10% of the combined absolute value of profit or loss from all segments, whose 
assets exceed 10% of the combined assets from all segments, or that result from the 
aggregation of two or more operating segments that share similar economic characteristics and 
meet the aggregation criteria under IFRS (note 2 d) iii. ). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
30 
 
u) 
Costs and expenses by function 
Costs and expenses in the consolidated statements of profit and loss and other comprehensive 
income were classified by their function. The nature of costs and expenses is presented in Note 
23. 
 
v) 
Statement of cash flows 
The Company presents cash flows from operating activities by using the indirect method, in 
which the income or loss is adjusted by the effects of items that do not require cash flows, 
including those related to investing or financing activities. 
 
The Company classifies all interest received from its investments and accounts receivable as 
investment activities, and all interest paid as financing activities.

Business and asset acquisitions 
a) 
Acquisition of RYC Alimentos, S.A. de C.V. 
On June 24, 2022, the Company acquired 100.00% of voting stock of RYC Alimentos, S.A. de 
C.V., which is dedicated to the processing and distribution of multiproteins with operations in 
the states of Puebla, Oaxaca Veracruz and Tlaxcala, Mexico. The purchase price paid in cash 
was $1,251,516. 
 
The purchase of RYC Alimentos, S.A. de C.V. benefits the Company, within the “Other” 
segment which as it will allow to accelerate the pace of growth and continue advancing in the 
process of diversifying other animal proteins. 
 
The assets acquired and the assumed liabilities of RYC Alimentos, S.A. de C.V. were 
recognized based on the best estimate of their fair value at the acquisition date. 
 
The fair value of the assets was determined using cost and market approaches. The cost 
approach, which estimates the value based on the current replacement cost of an asset by 
another asset of equal usefulness, was used mainly for plant and equipment. The market 
approach, in which the value of an asset is based on available market prices for comparable 
assets, was used mainly for real estate.  
 
Due to their liquidity or short-term maturities, as appropriate, the Company concluded that 
RYC Alimentos, S.A. de C.V.’s pre-acquisition carrying amounts for cash equivalents, 
accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable and other current 
liabilities approximate their fair value at the acquisition date. 
 
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
 
The following is a summary of the recognized amounts of acquired assets and assumed 
liabilities at the date, compared to the consideration paid:

Consideration paid 
 
1,251,516 
Goodwill (note 15) 
$ 
(1,006,719) 
 
Current assets are comprised of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other current assets, 
for $68,636, $188,224 and $172,896, respectively; and current liabilities are comprised of 
trade payable and other accounts payable, and other liabilities for $588,889 and $136,301, 
respectively. 
 
Goodwill arises because the consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of the net assets 
acquired and the liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. 
 
If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022, then consolidated revenues and 
consolidated profits for the year ended December 31, 2022 would have totaled $98,890,655 
and $6,047,792, respectively. When determining these amounts, Management assumed that 
the provisional adjustments to fair value recognized at the date of acquisition would have been 
similar if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022. 
 
Costs related to acquisition.  
 
During 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred costs related to the acquisition of RYC 
Alimentos, S.A. de C.V. of $8,678 corresponding to external legal fees and due diligence 
costs, which are included in other expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of profit 
and loss and other comprehensive income. 
 
b) 
Acquisition of Sonora Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V. 
On June 26, 2020, the Company acquired 54.80% of voting stock of Sonora Agropecuaria, 
S.A. de C.V. The operating results are included in the consolidated financial statements as of 
that date. Sonora Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V. is dedicated to the processing and distribution of 
pigs, and has operations in the states of Sonora, Jalisco, Guanajuato, Mexico City and 
Yucatan, Mexico. The purchase price paid as a capital contribution amounted to $215,000. 
 
The purchase of Sonora Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V. benefits the “Other” segment as it will 
allow it to accelerate the pace of growth and continue advancing in the process of diversifying 
other animal proteins. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
32 
The assets acquired and the assumed liabilities of Sonora Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V. were 
recognized based on the best estimate of their fair value at the acquisition date. 
 
The fair value of the assets was determined using cost and market approaches. The cost 
approach, which estimates the value based on the current replacement cost of an asset by 
another asset of equal usefulness, was used mainly for plant and equipment. The market 
approach, in which the value of an asset is based on available market prices for comparable 
assets, was used mainly for real estate.  
 
Due to their liquidity or short-term maturities, as appropriate, the Company concluded that 
Sonora Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V.’s pre-acquisition carrying amounts for cash equivalents, 
accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable and other current 
liabilities approximate their fair value at the acquisition date. 
 
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
 
The following is a summary of the recognized amounts of acquired assets and assumed 
liabilities at the date, compared to the consideration paid: 
 
 
Acquisition value 
 
 
 
Current assets, other than inventories 
$ 
349,834

252,303 
 
 
 
Consideration paid 
 
215,000 
Bargain purchase gain (note 30) 
$ 
90,889 
 
At the acquisition date, the non-controlling interest is measured on the basis of the 
proportional participation of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. 
 
The bargain purchase gain arises because the net of fair value of the assets at the acquisition 
date exceeds the amount of the consideration transferred. The business strategies followed by 
the acquiree in the past resulted in a high cost structure and limited opportunity for improving 
profitability, resulting in a fair value of the business below that of its component parts. For this 
reason, a gain was recognized in other income (expense), net (see note 30) in the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
33 
If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2020, consolidated revenues and consolidated 
profits for the year ended December 31, 2020 would have totaled $70,337,002 and 
$3,991,092, respectively. When determining these amounts, Management assumed that the 
provisional adjustments to fair value recognized at the date of acquisition would have been 
similar if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2020. 
 
Costs related to acquisition.  
 
During 2020, the Company incurred costs related to the acquisition of Sonora Agropecuaria, 
S.A. de C.V. of $1,704 corresponding to external legal fees and due diligence costs, which are 
included in other expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of profit and loss and 
other comprehensive income.

Operating segments 
Reportable segments have been determined based on a product line approach. Intersegment 
transactions have been eliminated. The poultry segment consists of chicken and egg 
operations. The information included in the “Others” segment corresponds to operations of 
swine, balanced feed for animal consumption and other by-products that do not meet the 
quantitative thresholds to be considered as reportable segments. 
 
Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis comparable to those which 
would be used with or between independent parties in comparable transactions. The 
accounting policies of operating segments are as those described in note 3 t). 
 
Below is the information related to each reportable segment. Performance is measured based 
on each segment’s income before taxes, in the same manner as it is included in Management 
reports that are regularly reviewed by the Company’s Board of Directors, which has been 
identified as being responsible for making operational decisions, allocating resources and 
evaluating the performance of the operating segments.

significant concentration with any specific customer. Therefore, in 2022, 2021 and 2020, no 
customer represented over 10% of the Company’s total revenues. 
 
As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not have operations with an 
individual customer that represented a significant concentration in the United States of 
America, more than 10% of the total income of the Company.

(8) 
Financial instruments and risk management 
The Company is exposed to market risks, liquidity risks and credit risks for the use of 
financial instruments, for which reason it exercises its risk management. 
 
This note presents information on the Company’s exposure to each one of the aforementioned 
risks, as well as the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for the measurement and 
management of financial risks.  
 
Risk management framework 
The philosophy adopted by the Company seeks to minimize risks and, therefore maximize 
business stability, focusing decisions on creating an optimum combination of products and 
assets that produce a risk – return ratio more in agreement with the risk profile of its 
stockholders. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
39 
In order to establish a clear and optimal organizational structure with respect to risk 
management, a Risk Committee has been established which is the specialized body in charge 
of defining, proposing, approving and implementing the objectives, policies, procedures, 
methodologies and strategies, as well as the determination of the maximum limits of exposure 
to risk and contingency plans. 
 
At December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not identified the existence of 
embedded derivatives. 
 
Some of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 
2020 meet the requirements to be treated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes 
(188,296, 11,238 and 319,506 thousand U.S. dollars of notional amounts).  
 
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has no derivative trading instruments. Some 
of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2020 are recognized in 
earnings through profit or loss for accounting purposes (60,000 thousand U.S. dollars of 
notional amounts).

b) 
Credit risk 
Credit risk is defined as the potential loss of a portfolio of an amount owed to the Company 
due to lack of payment from a debtor, or for breach by a counterparty with which derivative 
financial instruments and investment in securities at fair value through profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income transactions are conducted. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
40 
The risk management process of credit risk contemplates the use of derivative financial 
instruments and investments at fair value through profit and loss, which are exposed to a 
market risk, as well as counterparty risk.  
 
Measurement and monitoring of counterparty risk  
In terms of valuation and monitoring of Over the counter (“OTC”) derivative financial 
instruments and investments in securities, the Company currently measures its counterparty 
risk by identifying the Credit Valuation Adjustment (“CVA”) and Debit Valuation Adjustment 
(“DVA”). 
 
For investments in securities denominated in Mexican pesos, the financial instruments 
valuation models used by price vendors incorporate market movements and credit quality of 
issuers, thereby implicitly including the counterparty risk of the transaction in the fair value 
measurement; therefore, the position in investment in securities includes the counterparty risk 
and no additional adjustment is carried out. The price of the instruments obtained from the 
price vendor is the mid-point between the bid price and the ask price (the “mid-price”). 
 
Investments in securities denominated in a foreign currency, not listed in Mexico, are recorded 
at prices contained in the broker's statements of account. The Company validates these market 
prices using Bloomberg, which incorporate market movements and the credit quality of 
issuers; thereby implicitly including the counterparty risk of the transaction and no related 
adjustment is carried out. The prices obtained from Bloomberg are mid prices. 
 
Trade accounts receivable and other accounts receivable measurement and monitoring  
It is the policy of the Company to establish an allowance for doubtful accounts to cover the 
balances of accounts receivable that are not likely to be recovered. To set the required 
allowance, the Company considers historical losses, assesses current market conditions, as 
well as customers' financial conditions, accounts receivable in litigation, price differences, 
portfolio aging and current payment patterns. 
 
The impairment assessment of accounts receivable is performed on a collective basis, as there 
are no accounts with individually significant balances. The Company's products are marketed 
to a large number of customers without any significant concentration with a specific customer. 
As part of the objective evidence that an account receivable portfolio is impaired, the 
Company considers past experiences with respect to collection, increases in the number of 
overdue payments in the portfolio exceeding the average loan period, as well as observable 
changes in national and local economic conditions that correlate to defaults. 
 
The Company has a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually in 
terms of its creditworthiness before offering it payment terms and conditions. The Company's 
review includes internal and external assessments, and in some cases, bank references and a 
search in the Public Registry of Properties. For each customer, purchase limits are established, 
which represent the maximum credit amount. Customers that do not meet the Company's 
credit references can solely conduct transactions in cash or through advance payments. 
 
The allowance for doubtful accounts includes trade accounts receivable that are in process of 
legal recovery, which amount to $159,613, $157,012 and $143,278 as of December 31, 2022, 
2021 and 2020, respectively. The reconciliation of movements of the allowance for doubtful 
accounts, and the analysis of past-due accounts receivable but not impaired, are presented in 
note 9. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
41 
The Company receives credit enhancements on credit lines granted to its clients, which consist 
of real and personal property, such as land, buildings, houses, vehicles, letters of credit, cash 
deposits and others. As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the fair value of such credit 
enhancements, determined by an appraisal at the time the credit lines were granted, is 
$667,322, $667,322 and $180,513, respectively. 
 
The fair value of trade accounts receivable is similar to the carrying amount, as the terms 
granted under credit lines are of a short term nature and do not include significant finance 
components. 
 
Investments 
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk investing solely with counterparties that have 
been rated on a well-recognized credit rating scale or are deemed to be investment grade. 
Management constantly monitors credit ratings, and as it invests solely in securities with high 
credit ratings, it is not expected that any counterparty will fail to fulfill its obligations. 
 
Financial guarantees granted 
It is the Company’s policy to grant financial guarantees solely to 100% owned subsidiary 
companies. 
 
Exposure to credit risk 
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure, which as of 
the reporting date is as follows:

c) 
Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk is defined as the potential loss stemming from the impossibility to renew 
liabilities or enter into other liabilities under normal terms, the early or forced sale of assets or 
the need to grant unusual discounts in order to meet obligations, or by the fact that a position 
cannot be disposed of, acquired or covered promptly through the establishment of an 
equivalent contrary position. 
 
Liquidity risk management process considers the management of the assets and liabilities 
included in the consolidated statements of financial position (Assets Liabilities Management - 
ALM) in order to anticipate funding difficulties because of extreme events. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
42 
Monitoring 
The risk management and financial planning areas of the Company, measure, monitor and 
report to the Risk Committee liquidity risks associated with the ALM and prepare limits for 
the authorization, implementation and operation thereof, as well as contingent action measures 
in case of liquidity requirements. 
 
Liquidity risk caused by differences between current and projected cash flows at different 
dates are measured and monitored, considering all asset and liability positions of the Company 
denominated in local and foreign currency. Similarly, funding diversification and sources to 
which the Company has access are evaluated. 
 
The Company quantifies the potential loss arising from early or forced sale of assets or sale at 
unusual discounts to meet its obligations in a timely manner, as well as by the fact that a 
position cannot be disposed of, acquired or covered timely through the establishment of a 
contrary equivalent position. 
 
Liquidity risk monitoring considers a liquidity gap analysis, scenarios for lack of liquidity and 
use of alternative sources of financing. 
 
Below are the contractual maturities of the financial liabilities, including estimated interest 
payments. As of the date of the consolidated financial statements, there are no financial 
instruments which have been offset or recognized positions that are subject to offsetting rights.

At least on a monthly basis, Management evaluates and advises the Board of Directors on its 
liquidity. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has evaluated that it has sufficient resources 
to meet its obligations in the short and long term; therefore, it does not consider having 
liquidity gaps in the future and it will not be necessary to sell assets to pay its debts at unusual 
discounts or at out-of-market prices. 
 
d) 
Market risk 
Market risk is defined as the potential loss arising from the portfolio of derivative financial 
instruments and investment in securities for changes in risk factors that affect the valuation of 
short or long positions. In this sense, the uncertainty of future losses resulting from changes in 
market conditions (interest rates, foreign currency, prices of commodities, among others), 
which directly affects movements in the price of both assets and liabilities, is detected. 
 
The Company measures, monitors and reports all financial instruments subject to market risk, 
using sensitivity measurement models to show the potential loss associated with movements in 
risk variables, according to different scenarios on rates, prices and types of change during the 
period. 
 
Monitoring 
Sensitivity analyses are prepared at least monthly and are compared with the limits 
established. Any excess identified is reported to the Risk Committee. 
 
Stress tests 
At least monthly, the Company conducts stress tests calculating the value of the portfolios and 
considering changes in risk factors observed in historical dates of financial stress. 
 
i. Commodities price risk 
With respect to risks related to commodities designated in a formal hedging relationship, the 
Company seeks protection against downward variations in the agreed-upon price of corn 
and/or sorghum with the producer, which may represent an opportunity cost as there are lower 
prices in the current market upon receiving the inventory, and to hedge the risk of a decline in 
prices between the receipt date and that of inventory consumption. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
44 
Purchases of corn and/or sorghum are formalized through an agreement denominated 
"Forward buy-sell agreement", which has the following characteristics: 
 
• Transaction date 
• Number of agreed-upon tons 
• Harvest, state and agricultural cycle from which the harvest originates 
• Price of product per ton, plus quality award or penalty 
 
Agricultural agreements that result in firm commitments are linked to two corn and/or 
sorghum agricultural cycles, and in contracting purchases, both contracting cycles and dates 
are itemized as follows: 
 
• Fall-winter Cycle - is usually between December and March, while the fall-winter cycle 
harvest period takes place during May, June and July. However, corn and/or sorghum 
harvest could lengthen up to one month or several months, depending on the weather 
conditions, such as drought and frost.  
• Spring-summer Cycle - the spring-summer cycle usually takes place during the July and 
August and the harvest depends on each state of the country and is highly variable. 
 
During 2022, 2021 and 2020 the Company did not participate in any program as buyer of the 
corn and / or sorghum crops and did not receive any subsidy 
 
With respect to the risk in commodities that are not designated in a formal hedging 
relationship and to which the Company is exposed, sensitivity tests on corn and sorghum 
futures agreements are performed, considering different (bullish and bearish) scenarios. The 
results of these sensitivity analyses are presented in paragraph g) of this note. 
 
ii. Chicken price risk 
The Company is exposed to financial risks mainly related to changes in the price of chicken. 
The Company presently does not anticipate that the price of chicken will decrease to a level 
that represents a risk to the Company in the future; therefore, as of December 31, 2022, 2021 
and 2020, it has not entered into any derivative financial instrument or other agreement for 
managing the risk related to a decrease in the chicken price. 
 
The Company reviews chicken prices frequently in order to evaluate the need of having a 
financial instrument to manage the risk of price increases. 
 
iii. Exchange risk  
The Company is exposed to the effects of exchange rate volatility, mainly in relation to 
Mexican pesos/dollars exchange rates on the Company’s assets and liabilities, including: 
investments in securities and derivative financial instruments hedging commodities, which are 
denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. In this regard, the 
Company has implemented a sensitivity analysis to measure the effects that currency risk may 
have over the assets and liabilities described. 
 
The Company protects itself from exchange rate risk through economic hedging with 
derivative financial instruments, which cover a percentage of its estimated exposure to 
exchange rate volatility in relation to projected sale and purchase transactions. All instruments 
entered into as economic hedges of foreign exchange risk have maturities of less than one year 
from the contract date. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
45 
As of December 31, 2022, the Company has positions of derivative financial instruments on 
exchange rate hedging (40,000 thousand dollars of notional), During 2021 and 2020, the 
Company entered into derivative financial instrument positions as economic hedges to 
mitigate exchange rate risks. 
 
iv. Foreign currency position 
The Company has financial instrument assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency 
on which there is an exposure to currency risk. 
 
Below is the foreign currency position that the Company has as of December 31, 2022, 2021 
and 2020.

v. Interest rate risk 
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates for certain financial instruments, such 
as its investments in financial instruments, bank loans and debt securities. This risk is 
managed taking into account market conditions and the criteria of its Risk Committee and 
Board of Directors. 
 
Interest rate fluctuations impacted mainly bank loans by changing either their fair value (fixed 
rate debt) or the future cash flows (variable rate debt). Management does not have a formal 
policy to determine how much of the Company's exposure to interest rates should be at fixed 
or variable. However, at the time of obtaining new loans, Management uses its judgment 
considering technical analyses and market forecasts to decide whether fixed or variable rate 
instruments would be more favorable during the terms of such instruments. 
 
To monitor this risk, the Company performs sensitivity tests at least monthly to measure the 
effect of the change in interest rates in the instruments described in the preceding paragraph, 
which are summarized in subsection g) of this note. 
 
e) 
Financial instruments at fair value 
The amounts of accounts payable and accounts receivable approximate their fair value because 
of their nature and short-term maturities. 
 
The table below summarizes the fair value of the financial instruments that are recognized at 
amortized cost, together with the carrying amount included in the consolidated statements of 
financial position:

f) 
Fair value hierarchy 
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is determined as follows: 
 
• The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities that have standard terms and 
conditions and are traded in active liquid markets, which are determined by reference 
to quoted market prices (market approach), therefore, these instruments are considered 
Level 1 hierarchy according to the classification of fair value hierarchy described in 
note 2 b). 
• The fair value of derivative financial instruments of the Company (commodities) is 
determined based on the future prices of the Chicago Stock Exchange, so these 
instruments are considered Level 2 hierarchy. 
 
The following table summarizes financial instruments carried at fair value:

Quantitative sensitivity measurements 
The following are sensitivity analysis for the most significant risks to which the Company is 
exposed as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. These analyses represent the scenarios that 
Management believes are reasonably possible of occurring in future periods and were 
evaluated in accordance with the policies of the Company’s Risk Committee. 
 
i.  Derivative Financial Instruments related to exchange rate and commodities risks 
As of December 31, 2022, the Company has taken positions on derivative financial 
instruments to hedge exchange rate risks and commodities. 
 
A 15% increase in the Mexican peso with respect to the U.S. dollar as of the end of 2022, 
2021 and 2020 would have resulted in a valuation gain of $695,381, $34,443 and $506,705 on 
the fair value of the Company’s exchange rate derivative financial instruments position. On 
the other hand, a decrease of 15% in the aforementioned rate would have resulted in an 
additional valuation loss during the respective periods of $277,292, $34,698 and $1,405,538. 
 
The following table shows the Company’s sensitivity to an increase and decrease of 15% for 
2022, 2021 and 2020 in the “bushel” price of corn and short ton price of soybeans.

foreign currency was $9,516,047, $5,354,181 and $8,312,232, respectively. 
 
The following table shows the Company’s sensitivity of an increase and decrease of 30% for

Past-due but not impaired portfolio 
Below is a classification of trade accounts receivable according to their aging as of the 
reporting date, which has not been subject to impairment:

still be collected, based on the historical behavior of payments and analysis of credit ratings of 
customers.

As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 the Company has receivables in legal proceedings 
(receivables for which legal counsel is seeking recoverability) of $159,613, $157,012 and 
$143,278, respectively. 
 
To determine the recoverability of an account receivable, the Company considers any change 
in the credit quality of the account receivable from the date of authorization of the credit line 
to the end of the reference period. In addition, the Company estimates that the credit risk 
concentration is limited as the customer base is very large and there are no related party 
receivables or receivables from entities under common control. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
50 
 
Expected credit losses 
The Company recognizes expected credit losses for life for trade accounts receivable, which 
are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Company's historical experience of credit 
losses, adjusted for factors that are specific each of the Company’s customer and debtor 
groups, general economic conditions and an assessment of both the current and forecast 
conditions at the reporting date, including the time value of money when appropriate.  
 
The expected credit losses for 2022, 2021 and 2020 in trade accounts receivable under IFRS 9 
Financial Instruments were estimated at $47,470, $37,249 and $25,962, considering the 
balances of the portfolio and the different customer groups of the Company. 
 
The Company decided to maintain its previously recorded estimated reserve for doubtful 
accounts for its subsidiaries, according to balances shown in the reconciliation of movements 
in the estimate of doubtful accounts shown above, although such amounts were higher than the 
expected credit losses in 2022, 2021 and 2020, as described in the previous paragraph.

The “Other” category includes the change in fair value of biological assets that resulted in a 
increase of $85,006 in 2022 and decrease of $48,338 and $31,701 in 2021 and 2020, 
respectively.

The Company is exposed to different risks relating to its biological assets: 
 
• 
Future excesses in the offer of poultry products and a decline in the demand growth of 
the chicken industry may negatively affect the Company’s results. 
 
• 
Increases in raw material prices and price volatility may negatively affect the 
Company’s margins and results. 
 
• 
In addition, in the case of the Company’s operations in the United States of America, the 
cost of corn and grain may be affected by an increase in the demand for ethanol, which 
may reduce the market’s available corn inventory. 
 
• 
Operations in Mexico and the United States of America are based on animal breeding 
and meat processing, which are subject to sanitary risks and natural disasters.  
 
• 
Hurricanes and other adverse climate conditions may result in additional inventory 
losses and damage to the Company’s facilities and equipment.

The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is determined based on a calculation of its 
value in use, which uses projections of the estimated cash flows based on financial budgets 
approved by Management for a determined projection period, which are discounted using an 
annual discount rate. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, no goodwill 
impairment loss was determined. 
 
Projections of the cash flows during the budgeted period are based on sales projections which 
include increases due to inflation, as well as the projection of expected gross margins and 
operating margins during the budgeted period. Cash flows that exceed such period are 
extrapolated using an annual stable growth rate, which is the long-term weighted average 
growth rate for the market in which the cash-generating unit operates.  
 
The assumptions and balances of each cash-generating unit are as follows:

As of December 31, 2022, the percentage by which the recoverable amount of each cash-
generating unit exceeds its carrying amount is shown below:

Management considers that any possible reasonable change in the key assumptions (revenue 
growth rate and annual discount rate), on which the recoverable amount is based, would not 
cause the carrying amount of the cash-generating units to be less than their recoverable 
amount. 
 
The Company performed a sensitivity analysis considering a decrease in the revenue growth 
rate of 200 basis points and an increase of 200 basis points in the annual discount rate, as a 
result of this analysis, the Company concluded that for all cash-generating units there is no 
impairment to recognize. 
 
(16) Intangible assets 
The balances as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 for $589,715, $704,374 and $753,224 
are mainly comprised of trade names and customer relationships derived from the purchase 
through its subsidiary OK Foods, Inc. Customer relationships are generally amortized over 15 
years based on the pattern of revenue expected to be generated from the use of the asset. 
 
Indefinite life intangible assets are initially recorded at their fair value and are not amortized, 
but they are reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if impairment 
indicators arise. 
 
During 2022, the Company ended the relationship with two clients that had been capitalized,

On March 27, 2020, in United States of América, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security 
(“CARES”) Act was enacted. The most significant provisions of the CARES Act that will materially 
affect the Company’s accounting for income taxes includes a five-year carryback allowance for taxable 
net operating losses generated in tax year 2018 through 2020 and a technical correction to the Tax Cuts 
and Jobs Act, enacted on December 22, 2017, that disallowed the carrying back of taxable net operating 
losses to offset prior years’ taxable income. The Company requested the return during 2022, see note 9. 
 
c) 
Deferred income tax 
The Company and each one of its subsidiaries determine the deferred taxes that are reflected at 
a consolidated level on stand-alone basis. BSACV, the main operating subsidiary of the 
Company, is subject to tax payment under the agriculture, cattle-raising, forestry and fishing 
regime, in which the tax base for ISR is determined on collected revenues minus paid 
deductions. 
 
The tax effects of temporary differences, tax losses and tax credits that give rise to significant 
portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are 
detailed below:

d) 
Unrecognized deferred tax liabilities 
Deferred taxes related to investments in subsidiaries have not been recognized as the 
Company is able to control the moment of the reversal of the temporary difference, and the 
reversal is not expected to take place in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax on 
investments in subsidiaries not recognized as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 amounts 
to $1,035,095, $1,414,628 and $1,802,451, respectively. The Company's policy has been to 
distribute accounting profits when the respective taxes have been paid and in the case of 
foreign profits, such tax may be duly credited in Mexico.

(22) Employee benefits 
a) 
Employee benefits in Mexico 
Defined contribution plans 
The Company has a defined contribution plan which receives contributions from both the 
employees and the Company. Employees can make contributions between 1% to 5% of their 
wage and the Company is obligated to make contributions as follows: i) 20% of employee 
contributions for employees with 1 - 4.99 years of service, ii) 40% of employee contributions 
for employees with 5 – 9.99 years of service, and iii) 100% matching contributions for 
employees with 10 or more years of service or when the employee reaches 40 years of age, 
regardless of the years of service.  
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
69 
When an employee retires from the Company he/she has the right to receive the contribution 
he/she has made to the plan, and i) if the employee retires between the first and the 4.99 year 
of services, he/she does not have the right to receive the contribution made by the Company, 
ii) if he/she retires on the 5th year of services he/she has the right to receive 50% of the 
contributions made by the Company and, for each additional service year, the employee has 
the right to receive an additional 10% of the contributions made by the Company.  
 
During 2022, 2021 and 2020 there were not the expenses for paid contributions to defined 
contribution plans, other than those mandated by Mexican law. 
 
The Company makes payments equivalent to 2% of the integrated wage of its workers to the 
defined contribution plan for the retirement saving fund system established by Mexican law.  
 
The expense for this concept was $98,333, $84,093 and $72,121, in 2022, 2021 and 2020, 
respectively. 
 
Defined benefits plan 
The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering non-unionized personnel in 
Mexico. The benefits are based on the age, years of service and the employee’s payment. The 
retirement age is 65 years, with a minimum of 10 years of services, and there is an option for 
an anticipated retirement option, in certain circumstances, at 55 years of age. The Company’s 
policy to fund the pension plan is to make contributions up to the maximum amount that can 
be deducted for ISR. 
 
According to the Mexican Federal Labor Law, the Company is obligated to pay a seniority 
premium as a retirement benefit if an employee retires and has of least 15 years of services, 
which consists of a sole payment of 12 days for each worked year based on the last wage, 
limited to the two minimal wages established by law. 
 
The Company recognizes constructive obligations from past practices. Such constructive 
obligations are associated with service time the employee has worked for the Company. The 
payment of this benefit is disbursed in a single installment at the time the employee 
voluntarily stops working for the Company. As of 2021 this constructive obligation no longer 
exists, the accounting effect is recognized net in the result of the year. 
 
The plans in Mexico expose the Company to actuarial risks such as interest rate risk, longevity 
risk and salary risk: 
 
Interest risk 
A decrease in the interest rate for the governmental bonds will 
increase the plan’s liability. 
 
 
Longevity risk 
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by 
reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants 
both during and after their employment. An increase in the life 
expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability. 
 
 
Salary risk 
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by 
reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an 
increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s 
liability.

recognized in other comprehensive income; and 
• The ineffective portion of the gain or loss of the hedging instrument is recognized 
immediately in the income statement. 
 
The amount of cash flow hedges as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 amounts to

As of December 31, 2022, the Company has 619,543 treasury shares. 
 
e) 
Dividends 
During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company has declared and 
paid the following dividends: 
 
On April 27, 2022, the Company declared a payment of dividends in cash at nominal value of 
$982,984 o $1.64 pesos per outstanding share. The payment was made in two equal 
installments, on May 18 and July 13, 2022. 
 
On April 28, 2021, the Company declared a payment of dividends in cash at nominal value of 
$851,619 or $1.42 pesos per outstanding share. The payment was made in two equal 
installments, on May 19 and July 14, 2021. 
 
On April 22, 2020, the Company declared a payment of dividends in cash at nominal value of 
$791,744 or $1.32 pesos per outstanding share. The payment was made in two equal 
installments, on May 12 and July 7, 2020. 
 
Dividends that the Company pays to stockholders are subject to ISR solely insofar as such 
dividends exceed the balance in its net tax income account (“CUFIN”) consisting of income in 
which ISR is already paid by the Company. The ISR paid on dividends corresponds to a tax 
payable by legal entities and not by individuals. However, as a result of changes to the income 
tax law described in note 20(a), beginning on January 1, 2014, a new withholding tax of 10% 
for resident individuals in Mexico and for all residents in foreign countries who receive 
dividends from entities was established. Such tax is considered a withholding tax by the entity 
that pays the dividends. This tax will be applicable only to the income generated from period 
2014. Thus, the Company must update its CUFIN from income generated up to December 31, 
2013 and must calculate a new CUFIN with the income generated from January 1, 2014. 
 
The Company obtains most of its revenue and net income from BSACV. For fiscal years 2022, 
2021 and 2020, net income of BSACV, accounted for 59%, 63% and 61%, respectively, of 
consolidated net income. Dividends for which BSACV pays ISR will be credited to the 
Company’s CUFIN account, and accordingly, any future liabilities arising from ISR will be 
incurred when such amounts are distributed as dividends to the stockholders.

tax return. The Company has not identified factors that may indicate the existence of a 
contingency.

and exporter, located in Sonora, Mexico.

b) 
NYSE delisting reques 
On March 28, 2023, Industrias Bachoco, S.A.B. de C.V. announced that its Board of 
Directors, considering, among other things: the results of the tender offer concluded on 
November 2022, by Edificio del Noroeste, S.A. de C.V., a vehicle controlled by the Robinson 
Bours Family, which together with its affiliates and related parties in the aggregate, at this date 
hold more than 97% of the outstanding shares issued by Bachoco; the low trading volume in 
the United States of America; the relatively low participation in the American Depositary 
Receipts ("ADRs") program and the benefits of maintaining the ADRs program against the 
costs related thereto, resolved, consistent with the processes initiated more than a year ago, to 
initiate the processes to delist its ADRs from the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and 
terminate its ADRs program.  
 
In addition, it is anticipated that in the near future, Bachoco will take such actions as necessary 
to deregister and terminate its obligations to prepare and file reports under the Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Neither the delisting from the 
NYSE nor the termination of its registration under the Exchange Act is expected to affect the 
continued listing of Bachoco's shares on the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A.B. de C.V. 
and/or the registration of such shares with the Mexican Securities Commission (Comisión 
Nacional Bancaria y de Valores). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
82 
 
As part of the delisting process announced on March 28 2023, Bachoco filed a Form 15F, 
before the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 24, 2023, with the 
effect of immediately suspending its Exchange Act reporting obligations.
