México, D.F., 23 de febrero de 2012 – Grupo Herdez S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: HERDEZ) anunció hoy sus resultados correspondientes al cuarto trimestre y acumulados al 31 de diciembre de 2011.

“Nos complace anunciar que alcanzamos nuestras metas de desempeño para 2011, con un sólido crecimiento en Estados Unidos y una mejoría secuencial en el mercado doméstico, a pesar del entorno retador en términos de consumo, costos de los insumos y volatilidad del tipo de cambio a lo largo del año. Mientras que estos factores permanecerán en 2012, estamos optimistas con respecto al fortalecimiento de nuestras operaciones”,

Héctor Hernández-Pons Torres, Presidente y Director General de Grupo Herdez

DATOS RELEVANTES DEL AÑO

  • Las ventas netas crecieron 10.4%, con sólido desempeño en todas las operaciones.
  • El margen de operación y el margen UAFIDA de 14.9% y 16.6%, respectivamente, reflejaron el incremento en los costos de los insumos y, en menor medida, el efecto de la apreciación del dólar al final del trimestre.
  • El margen neto mayoritario permaneció prácticamente sin cambio en 7.5%, debido a una ganancia cambiaria que contrarrestó la presión a nivel operativo.
