Adjusted EBITDA reached $55.4 million in 2Q25. Leveraging on our production and commercial flexibility to mitigate lower global prices across our businesses

LUXEMBOURG, Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Adecoagro S.A. (NYSE: AGRO, Bloomberg: AGRO US, Reuters: AGRO.K), a leading sustainable production company in South America, announced today its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. The financial information contained in this press release is based on consolidated interim financial statements presented in US dollars and prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) except for Non - IFRS measures. Please refer to page 24 for a definition and reconciliation to IFRS of the Non - IFRS measures used in this earnings release.

Main highlights for the period:

• During 2Q25, gross sales were down 1.4% year-over-year on lower prices for most of our products. On an accumulated basis, sales were 9.9% higher versus the same period last year driven by higher volumes sold across all segments - particularly ethanol, reflecting the success of our commercial strategy to clear out inventories at favorable prices.
• Adjusted EBITDA was 60.5% and 60.3% lower year-over-year during 2Q25 and 6M25, respectively. The decline was driven by year-over-year losses in the mark-to-market of our biological assets in our Sugar, Ethanol & Energy business mainly due to lower quantity of harvested cane, as well as in our Rice operations on lower prices and in Crops on pressured margins. Furthermore, results were also negatively impacted by higher costs in U.S. dollar terms across our Farming operations, together with higher corporate expenses due to one-off expenses related to Tether's tender offer for our common shares.
• Net Debt/LTM Adj. EBITDA stood at 2.3x on lower consolidated results.

Sugar, Ethanol & Energy business:

• Adjusted EBITDA in the SE&E business reached $68.1 million and $98.0 million during 2Q25 and 6M25, 36.3% and 38.3% lower year-over-year respectively.
  (+) Higher net sales driven by (i) higher volumes of ethanol sold thanks to our efficient carry-over strategy and (ii) higher average selling prices for both ethanol and energy.
  (+) Sugar max scenario (50% in 2Q25 / 48% in 6M25) as prices traded above hydrous ethanol in MS. Within ethanol, we prefer hydrous over anhydrous due to better prices.
  (-) Lower crushing during 2Q25 and 6M25 (13.5% and 19.8% down, respectively) explained by less effective milling days during 2Q25 (75% higher rains in April versus the 15-year average), coupled with selective cane crushing done in 1Q25 (focused on cane with limited growth potential).
  (-) Year-to-date cost of production at 9.0 cts/lb (versus 7.9 cts/lb in 6M24) driven by lower dilution of fixed and variable costs on lower TRS equivalent produced.
  (-) Year-over-year loss in biological assets due to lower quantity of harvested cane versus 2Q24 and 6M24, coupled with lower year-over-year gains in our commodity hedge position.

Farming business:

• Adjusted EBITDA for the Farming business reached $1.1 million in 2Q25 and $17.7 million in 6M25, $36.7 million and $64.1 million lower year-over-year, respectively. Excluding the sale of La Pecuaria farm in April 2024, Adjusted EBITDA was down $21.7 million and $49.1 million during each period, respectively.
  (+) Higher volumes sold of our Dairy value-added products.
  (+) Record production in our Rice operations.
  (-) Lower prices for crops, rice and dairy products.
  (-) Year-over-year losses in the mark-to-market of our biological asset and agricultural produce for our Crops and Rice operations on lower prices.
  (-) Higher costs in U.S. dollar terms.

Remarks

Issuance of US$500 million Senior Notes due 2032 & Cash Tender Offer for Senior Notes due 2027

• On July 29, 2025, we completed the issuance of a 7-year $500 million bond with a 7.50% coupon. The notes are due on July 29, 2032, and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company's subsidiaries. The Company has used the proceeds of the transaction to primarily fund the cash tender offer for its 6.00% Senior Notes due 2027, which expired on July 24, 2025, with approximately $150.9 million aggregate principal of notes tendered out of the $415.6 million outstanding. Other uses of the proceeds include general corporate purposes, such as capital expenditures and liability management.
• This transaction marks another milestone in Adecoagro's history. Not only have we improved our debt maturity profile, but also this liability management reflects our disciplined and constant search for opportunities to better finance our operations while adding financial flexibility.

2025 Shareholder Distribution

• As of the date of this report, we have already committed $45.2 million to shareholder distributions. $10.2 million were expended in repurchasing 1.1% of the company's equity (1.1 million shares at an average price of $9.65 per share), and $35.0 million correspond to cash dividends (the first installment of $17.5 million was already paid on May 16, 2025 and the second installment will be paid in November 2025).
