Sales as presented below include sales of the Scana Noliko
Group ('canned division') for a period of 6 months. The
deep-frozen vegetable division that was acquired from the
CECAB-group contributed for a period of four months to the
consolidated sales. Hence the comparative figures as per 31
December 2010 did not yet include the effect of these
acquisitions.

In the potato division there is a sales growth of 1.1%. This
is the combined effect of on the one hand the increased sales
prices (+20.6%) which was applied as a reaction to the huge
increase of raw material prices in the first semester of 2011
and on the other hand the planned organic decrease of volumes
of 19.7%.
In the deep-frozen vegetable division there is a growth of
sales (including 4 months of CECAB) of 16.8%. The impact of
including 4 months of sales of the deep-frozen vegetable
division of CECAB amounts to €53.1 million. Without taking
into account the acquisition of the CECAB activities, there
was a decline of sales of
4.9%. Had the exchange rate for the British pound remained
unchanged, the deep-frozen vegetable division
would have achieved 0.6% more in sales during the twelve
months of 2011.
1 The impact of including the sales of the deep-frozen
vegetable division of CECAB is only applicable for 2011 since
this business combination took place on September 1,
2011.
