ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE MARKET

 

 

BRF S.A. (“BRF” or “Company”) (B3: BRFS3; NYSE: BRFS) communicates to its shareholders and to the market in general that its indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary Badi Limited executed, on May 07, 2020, with Hungry Bunny Limited and others, a Share Purchase Agreement establishing the terms and conditions for the acquisition of 100% of the capital stock of Joody Al Sharqiya Food Production Factory, a food processing company. The transaction considered an enterprise value of SAR 29.7 million (twenty-nine million and seven-hundred thousand Saudi riyals), equivalent to approximately US$ 8.0 million (eight million US dollars).

The closing of this transaction is subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent applicable to transactions of this nature, including the approval by regulatory authorities.

Joody Al Sharqiya Food Production Factory has one food processing plant located in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, whose portfolio includes breaded and marinated cuts, and hamburgers, among others.

BRF plans to invest around US$7.2 million (seven million two hundred thousand US dollars) in the Dammam plant in order to expand its current installed capacity from 3,600 ton/year to 18,000 ton/year, further increasing the presence of BRF in the Saudi market, in line with its strategy of establishing local production and further expansion of its high value-added product portfolio.

This acquisition does not impact the memorandum of understanding signed with the Saudi Arabian Investment Authority – SAGIA, whose objective is to secure the investment of approximately US$120 million (one hundred and twenty million US dollars) in a processed food plant in Saudi Arabia, pursuant to the announcement to the market dated October 29, 2019. The development of this project is currently in the technical specification and financial modelling phase.

 

 


 

The Company will keep its shareholders and the market in general duly informed about any relevant matter related to the present announcement.

 

São Paulo, May 08, 2020.
