PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
The following financial information is included in this offering memorandum.
Marfrig Holdings' Financial Information for the Years Ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010
Marfrig Holdings' financial year corresponds to the calendar year. Management of the issuer prepares
unaudited unconsolidated financial reports of the issuer for filing with the Dutch trade register and is
required to file such financial statements within 13 months of the end of the relevant financial year. As a
result, the issuer has filed its unaudited financial report for the calendar years 2008 and 2009 and shall file its
unaudited financial report for the calendar year 2010 with the Dutch trade register by January 31, 2012. The
issuer is not required to prepare and does not prepare consolidated financial reports or interim financial
reports.
Pursuant to the Dutch Civil Code, the issuer is also not required to audit its financial reports. However,
solely for purposes of the application to listing of the notes on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange and trading on the EuroMTF, the issuer has prepared audited unconsolidated financial statements
as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, which are included elsewhere in this
offering memorandum. The issuer prepares its financial statements in accordance with the statutory
provisions of Part 9, Book 2, of the Dutch Civil Code and the firm pronouncements in the Guidelines for
Annual Reporting in The Netherlands as issued by the Dutch Accounting Standards Board, taking into
account the exemptions offered by the Dutch Accounting Standards Board. We refer to these accounting
practices as "Dutch GAAP."
Marfrig's Financial Information for the Years Ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, which
are based on:

·
Brazilian corporate law (Law No. 6,404, dated December 15, 1976, as amended, including the
provisions of Law No. 11,638, dated December 28, 2007 and Law No. 11,941, dated May 27,
2009);
·
accounting pronouncements issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (Comitê de
Pronunciamentos Contábeis, or the "CPC"); and
·
as we are a public company, rules and regulations issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission
(Comissão de Valores Mobiliários, or the "CVM").
We refer to these accounting practices as Brazilian GAAP. Brazilian GAAP has changed in recent
years to converge with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting
Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC").
Following these changes, our financial information derived from our consolidated financial statements
as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, included elsewhere in this offering
memorandum, is presented in accordance with both Brazilian GAAP and IFRS.
However, the adoption of IFRS into Brazilian GAAP was not retroactive, and we have not been
required to prepare financial statements for any period prior to 2009 in accordance with IFRS. Therefore,
our financial information derived from our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2009, included elsewhere in this offering memorandum, was prepared in accordance
with Brazilian GAAP as it applied to those periods. In this offering memorandum, we refer to this previous
version of Brazilian GAAP as "Previous Brazilian GAAP."
As a result, our audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010
are not directly comparable with our audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2009, and are presented in this offering memorandum in separate tables with certain differing line
items. Previous Brazilian GAAP differs in certain significant respects from IFRS. We have not identified or
vii



quantified those differences in respect to the year ended December 31, 2008. No reconciliation to IFRS of
any of the financial statements prepared in accordance with Previous Brazilian GAAP as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2008 and presented in this offering memorandum has been prepared for the purpose of
this offering memorandum or for any other purpose. There can be no assurance that reconciliations would
not identify material quantitative differences as well as disclosure and presentation differences between our
financial statements prepared in accordance with Previous Brazilian GAAP and financial statements
prepared under IFRS.
EBITDA
Marfrig's EBITDA consists of net income (loss) of controlling shareholders plus net financial
expenses, plus income taxes and social contribution plus depreciation and amortization plus minority
interest. We use EBITDA as an additional measure to monitor our operating and economic performance.
EBITDA is not a measure recognized under Brazilian GAAP, IFRS or U.S. GAAP and should not be
considered individually as an alternative to net income, as a measure of operating performance, as an
alternative to cash flow or as a measure of liquidity. Other companies may calculate EBITDA in a manner
that is different from ours. We publish EBITDA because we use it as a measure of performance, and we
consider EBITDA a useful measure because it is frequently used by capital markets analysts, investors and
other parties interested in evaluating companies in our industry. Because EBITDA does not reflect financial
revenues or expenses, taxes, social contribution tax or depreciation and amortization, it is an indicator of our
general financial performance, which is not affected by changes in interest rates, indebtedness, taxes, social
contribution tax rates or rates of depreciation and amortization. As a result, we believe that EBITDA is a
useful tool to compare our operating performance in different periods, and as a basis for certain management
decisions. In addition to our general financial performance, we believe that EBITDA also enables us to
better understand our ability to discharge our liabilities and to finance our capital expenses and working
capital. However, the usefulness of EBITDA as a measure of profitability is limited, since it does not reflect

a number of the costs and expenses involved in doing business, such as financial expenses, taxes,
depreciation, capital expenses and other related costs, any of which may have a significant effect on our net
income.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
On October 1, 2010, we completed the acquisition of certain subsidiaries of Keystone, which we refer
to as the "Acquired Keystone Businesses." For more information on this acquisition, see "Business--
History of Our Organic Growth and Acquisitions."
In order to facilitate investors' analysis of our financial information, we have prepared an unaudited pro
forma condensed consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2010, which gives effect
to the acquisition of the Acquired Keystone Businesses as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2010.
Our audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 already reflects the consolidation of the
Acquired Keystone Businesses.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the transaction been
consummated on January 1, 2010 or any other date, nor is it necessarily indicative of our future consolidated
operating results. For more information, see "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial
Information."
Rounding
Certain amounts and percentages included in this offering memorandum have been rounded to facilitate
their presentation. The totals presented in certain tables therefore may not be exactly the sum of the
preceding amounts.

SUMMARY
We present below a summary of our activities, financial and operating information, strengths and
strategies. This summary does not contain all the information that a potential investor should consider
before investing in the notes. Before investing in the notes, potential investors should carefully read this
entire offering memorandum to best understand our business and this offering, including our financial
statements and related notes, as well as the sections "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
Introduction
We are a multinational diversified food company, founded and based in Brazil that produces, processes,
sells and delivers a diversified range of food products, focusing on food derived from animal protein. We
have more than two decades of experience in the food industry. We were recognized in 2010 by the
magazine Exame as the "Best Agribusiness Company in Brazil" and by the magazine Isto É Dinheiro as the
"Best Company in Financial Sustainability."
We have built an integrated and geographically diversified business model, consisting of production
facilities in locations that offer significant cost advantages, combined with a distribution network that covers
more than 150 countries and accesses the world's principal consumer channels and markets. We have a
vertical business model in poultry and pork in Brazil, Europe (Moy Park) and the United States (Keystone),
while in other regions we acquire poultry and pork raw material from third parties. Most of our cattle is
acquired from third parties, providing us with a wide and varied portfolio of proteins and products. We also
have a strong and growing presence in the processed foods segment, which we believe will be one of our
main drivers of growth in volumes and margins in coming years.
Our business is organized strategically into the following segments, organized in accordance with the
business from which revenue is derived: (i) Beef, Lamb and Leather, which includes operations located in
Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, and (ii) Poultry, Pork and Processed & Elaborated Products --
PPP&E, which includes operations in Brazil, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the United States.
On October 1, 2010, we completed our acquisition of the Acquired Keystone Businesses with a cash
payment of R$1,525.2 million. Keystone is a worldwide leader in food manufacturing and custom
distribution services to the food industry. Keystone is a global distributor and supplier of animal protein
(poultry, pork, beef and fish), and has leading market shares in the United States as well as in key European
and Asian markets. Keystone supplies protein to branded companies, and has been a key supplier to major
fast food restaurants and major food services companies for over 40 years.
We currently operate 150 processing plants and offices in 22 countries in South America, North
America, Europe, Asia and Africa and have a daily slaughtering capacity of 29,400 head of cattle, 3,740,000
chickens, 10,400 head of pork, 50,000 turkeys and 13,400 lambs. We have a monthly production capacity of
120,760 metric tons of processed food and 294,000 leather articles. Our annual distribution capacity is more
than 200 million cases. Together, this production platform gives us significant growth capacity as well as
the ability to hedge against industry risks.
Since our initial public offering in 2007, we have implemented a strategy of deliberate and consistent
operational growth based on a global and diversified business model. From our initial public offering in
2007 through the end of 2010, our volume of products sold increased by approximately 289.0%. From 2008
through the end of 2010, our volume of products sold increased from 1,480,767 metric tons to 3,700,676
metric tons, representing a compound annual growth rate of 35.7%. At the same time we continued to
upgrade our internal processes, seeking both improvements in efficiency and strict cost control, which we
believe resulted in an increase in our profitability.
