Preparation and presentation of the interim financial information
   
 
The individual and consolidated interim financial information were prepared in accordance with accounting practices derived from the Brazilian Corporation Law and the rules of the Brazilian Securities Commission - CVM.

3
Summary of the principal accounting practices
         
 
a.
Income statement
         
 
Income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Revenue from the Company’s sales is recognized upon shipment of the products and when the following conditions are met: i) the ownership is transferred and therefore risk of loss has passed to the client; ii) collection is probable; iii) there is evidence of an arrangement; and iv) the sales price is fixed or determinable.
         
 
b.
Foreign currency
         
   
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies were translated into reais at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognized in the income statement for the period.
         
 
c.
Accounting estimates
         
   
The preparation of the financial information in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil requires that management uses its judgment in determining and recording accounting estimates. Significant assets and liabilities subject to these estimates and assumptions include the residual value of property, plant and equipment, deferred charges, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventories, deferred tax assets, provision for contingencies, valuation of derivative instruments, and assets and liabilities related to employees’ benefits. The settlement of transactions involving these estimates may result in significantly different amounts due to the lack of precision inherent to the process of their determination. The Company reviews the estimates and assumptions periodically.

d.
Long and short-term investments
         
   
Investment funds in local and foreign currency are recorded at market value according to the respective shares price at the date of the interim financial information.

Other long and short-term investments in local and foreign currency are recorded at cost income accrued up to the balance sheet date, not exceeding market value.

Additionally, the portion receivable from currency swap contracts is recorded at the difference between the nominal amounts of these contracts and the amounts restated by the variation of the foreign currency, plus interest earned up to the date of the interim financial information.

e.
Trade Accounts receivable
         
   
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the amount invoiced and interest is not levied. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the best estimate the Company has and is considered sufficient by management to cover any losses arising on collection of accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and the possibility of recovery of the amounts receivable is considered remote.

 
f.
Inventories
         
   
Finished goods, livestock (excluding breeders), work-in-progress, raw materials and supplies and others are valued at the lower of cost of acquisition or production (average method), or replacement or realization. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress includes raw materials acquired, labor, production expenses, transport and storage relating to the purchase and production of inventories. Normal production losses are inventoried and abnormal losses are expensed immediately as cost of goods sold.

 
g.
Investments
         
   

Investments in subsidiaries in Brazil and abroad are valued using the equity method of accounting, based on the respective shareholders’ equity valued at the same date and in accordance with accounting practices adopted by the Company.

The financial information of foreign subsidiaries is translated into Brazilian Reais, based on the following criteria:

• Balance sheet accounts at the exchange rate at the end of the period.
• Statement of income accounts at the exchange rate at the end of each month.

Other investments are valued at cost less a provision for devaluation, when applicable.

h.
Property, plant and equipment
         
   

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost of acquisition, formation or construction, including the interest incurred on financing, during the period of construction, modernization and expansion of the industrial units. Expenditures that materially extent the useful lives of existing facilities and equipment are capitalized. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method at rates that take into account the estimated useful life of the assets, adjusted in keeping with the work shifts, as disclosed in Note 10. Depletion of forestry resources is calculated based on the extraction of timber and the average costs of the forests.

Breeding stock is recorded at the cost of formation which includes the appropriation of costs of the breeding hens, animal feed, medication and labor. These costs are accumulated for approximately six months until the breeding stock initiates the breeding cycle. From then on, the costs of the breeding stock begin to be amortized by the estimated number of offsprings. The productive cycle ranges from fifteen to thirty months.


 
i.
Permanent losses in noncurrent assets
         
   

The Company reviews its property, plant and equipment to verify possible losses considered permanent, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable based on future cash flows. If these events occur, the reviews will be conducted at the lowest level of groups of assets for which the Company manages to attribute future cash flows. If the carrying amount of an asset is higher than the future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Until now, these reviews have not indicated the need to recognize permanent losses.


 
j.
Deferred charges
         
   

Deferred charges are related to pre-operating costs incurred in the implementation of software, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years as from the beginning of operation.

k.
Current and noncurrent liabilities
         
   

Current and noncurrent liabilities are stated at known or estimated amounts, plus related charges and monetary and exchange variations up to the interim financial information date.


 
l.
Provisions
         
   

A provision is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.


 
m.
Income and social contribution taxes
         
   

The income and social contribution taxes, both current and deferred, are calculated monthly based on taxable income at the rates of 15% plus a surcharge of 10% for income tax and 9% for social contribution and consider the offsetting of tax losses and negative basis of social contribution, limited to 30% of taxable income.

The deferred tax assets were recorded in accordance with CVM Instruction 371/02 and are represented significantly by temporary differences arising from non-deductible provisions, including also tax loss carryforward and negative basis of social contribution.


 
n.
Employees’ benefits
         
   

Employees’ benefits are recorded based on actuarial studies prepared annually at the end of the year in compliance with CVM Deliberation 371/00.


 
o.
Environmental questions.
         
   

Our production facilities and our forestry activities are subject to government environmental regulations. We have reduced the risks associated with environmental questions through operational controls and procedures, as well as investments in equipment and systems for pollution control. We believe that no provision for losses related to environmental questions is currently necessary, based on existing Brazilian laws and regulations.

p.
Supplementary information
         
   

The statements of cash flows and added value are supplementary to the aforementioned interim financial information and have been included to facilitate additional analysis.

The statements of cash flows have been prepared in accordance with NPC 20 - Statement of Cash Flows, issued by IBRACON (Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors).

The statements of added value have been prepared in accordance with the model of Fundação Instituto de Pesquisas Contábeis, Atuariais e Financeiras (Institute of Accounting, Actuarial and Financial Research) of the University of São Paulo, which have the objective of demonstrating the value of the wealth generated by the Company and its distribution among the elements that contributed to its generation.


 
q.
Consolidated financial information
         
   

The transactions and balances between the Parent and its subsidiaries included in the consolidation process have been eliminated and the non-realized profit arising from the sales to the subsidiaries were excluded and incorporated into the inventory balances at the end of each period. Minority interests were excluded from shareholders’ equity and net income and are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets and income statements.

In the case of joint ventures, the assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity and the result for the period were consolidated in proportion to the percentage of ownership.

In accordance with the CVM 408/04 Instruction, the Company consolidated the interim financial information of its investment funds Concórdia Foreign Investment Fund Class A and Taurus Fund Limited, where it is the wholly owned investment holder. These investment funds have the sole purpose of centralizing the foreign investment fund portfolio, delegating to third party the administrative functions and maximizing shareholder returns. As of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, these investment funds were consolidated in the Company’s financial information as they had loans collateralized by its own financial assets.

The consolidated financial information includes the accounts of Sadia S.A. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including investments in joint ventures. The consolidated direct or indirect subsidiaries and the corresponding shareholdings of the Company are as follows:

The Company and its subsidiaries abroad (Sadia International Ltd and Wellax Food Comércio de Produtos Alimentares Lda.) entered into an agreement for sale of its receivables with an outside financial institution up to the maximum amount of US$130 million, with interest rate of 0.375% p.a. + LIBOR. Credit insurance covering 90% of the value of the receivable was taken out with third parties and the beneficiaries in the event of default are the contracting financial institutions. At March 31, 2006, the receivable assigned was approximately US$110 million (US$100 million at December 31, 2005).

During the period ended March 31, 2006, the Company received approximately R$459 million (R$484 million in March 31, 2005) in cash funds and incurred expenses of R$3 million (R$2 million in 2005) with respect to this agreement.

The Company also assigned receivables to a Credit Assignment Investment Fund (FIDC), administered by Concórdia S.A. Corretora de Valores Móbiliarios, Cambio e Commodities. As of March 31, 2006, the net equity of this fund was R$ 238,536 (R$ 231,197 at December 31, 2005), of which R$ 135,100 (R$ 190,350 at December 31, 2005) was represented by acquisitions of the Company’s receivables on the domestic market, with a discounted cost equivalent to 95% of the CDI per senior quota. The assignment of the receivables is made without right of recourse, and the eventual losses from default for Sadia are limited to the value of the subordinated quotas, which at Mach 31, 2006, represented R$ 48,381 (R$ 17,150 at December 31, 2005).

For other domestic accounts receivables, the Company has credit insurance, which guarantees a compensation, in case of delinquency, of 85% to customers with pre-approved credit and of 60% to the new customers or with a credit limit below R$ 50.

c.
Other tax contingencies
Several cases related to payment of IOF (Tax on Financial Operations), PIS (Social Integration Program Tax), COFINS (Tax for Social Security Financing) and others totaling a probable loss of R$11,256.

The Company has other tax contingencies where the claimed amount is R$461,072, which were assessed as possible losses by the Company’s legal counsel and management and, therefore, no provision was recorded.

On November 9, 2005, the Supreme Court declared by a majority of votes that Law 9718/98 was unconstitutional, which changed the calculation basis of PIS and COFINS, including operating and financial income. This decision affects only the taxpayers whose actions have been judged, however, this decision indicates that the court suits that have the same objective will also be successful. The Company has a court suit questioning the increase in the basis, however, it has been calculating and paying these taxes in accordance with the law. If the Company had already received a final decision, the credit to be recognized in the financial statements would be approximately R$62 million.

 
Civil litigation
 

Represents principally proceedings involving claims for indemnification for losses and damages, including pain and suffering, arising from work-related accidents and consumer relations.

The Company has other civil contingencies where the claimed amount is R$48,761, which were assessed as possible losses by the Company’s legal counsel and management and, therefore, no provision was recorded.

 
Labor claims
 
The company is involved in approximately 2,305 labor claims. These labor lawsuits refer mainly to claims for overtime, and health exposure and hazard claims, none of which involve a significant amount on an individual basis. The total amount involved is R$38,076, for which the provision in the amount of RS17,417 was recorded based on historical information, representing the best estimate for probable losses.

The price for exercising the purchase options does not include any discount and will be based on the average value of the quotation for the share in the last three days of trading on the São Paulo Stock Exchange prior to the grant date, updated by the accumulated National Consumer Price Index (INPC) between the grant date and the date of exercising the option. The vesting period, during which the participant cannot exercise his/her right to purchase the shares, will be three years as from the option granting date. The participant will be able to fully or partially exercise his/her purchase rights after the vesting period within a maximum period of 2 years, and only after this period has expired will he/she lose the right to the options not exercised.
   

The composition of the options granted at March 31, 2006 is presented as follows:


Date
Price of shares
  Grant date Start Final Number of
shares
Price on the
Grant date
Updated - INPC Market
03/31/06
               
  06/24/05 06/23/08 06/23/10 2,200,000 4.55 4.67 5.80

 
Since the Company has treasury shares earmarked for the stock option plan, the difference between the market value and the updated price for the year will not affect the Company’s results.

The Management considers that the deferred assets arising from temporary differences will be realized in proportion to the final solution of the contingencies and to the payment of the liabilities forecast for the employees’ benefit plans.

The deferred tax assets related to the income tax loss carryforwards and negative basis of social contribution, represented by R$23,596 of Parent and R$11,202 from a foreign subsidiary will be realized base on future taxable income on such companies. Management estimates that the deferred tax asset related to the Parent will be fully realized during 2005 and the deferred tax asset related to the foreign subsidiary will be realized within three years.

Risk management and financial instruments
     
 
The Company’s operations are exposed to market risks, principally in relation to exchange rate variations, credit risk and grain purchase prices. These risks are monitored by the Risk Management Area that uses a specific system to calculate the “VAR -Value at Risk, Stress Test and Back Testing”, and permanently monitored by the finance committee, composed of members of the Board of Directors and other finance executives of the Company, who are responsible for defining the Board’s risk management strategy by determining the position and exposure limits. In March 31, 2006 the Value at Risk (VAR) of the financial assets and liabilities, for one year, with a 95% of confidence rating, represents R$ 113,863, representing 5.08% of equity (not reviewed by auditors).
     
 
a.
Exchange rate and interest risk
     
   

The exchange rate risk for loans, financing and any other payables denominated in foreign currency is hedged by short-term investments denominated in foreign currency, with same interest rates, and by derivative financial instruments, such as rate swaps (dollar to CDI), interest rate swap contracts (Libor to pre-fixed or vice-versa) and future market agreements, in addition to foreign receivables from exports, which also reduce exchange variations by serving as a “natural hedge”.

The Company, within its hedge strategy, uses currency futures contracts (US dollars, Euros and Pounds), as a form of mitigating exchange rate risk over operating and financial assets and liabilities. The nominal amounts of these contracts are not recorded in the financial statements.

The result realized from the futures contracts in the period ended March, 31 2006, generated a gain of R$28,030 (R$49,497 in March, 31 2005), recorded as financial results in positive exchange variances.

The results of the operations in the currency futures market, realized and not financially settled, and the daily adjustments of currency futures contracts of the Future and Commodities Exchange - BM&F are recorded in the interim financial information as “Amounts receivable from futures contracts” and “Amounts payable for futures contracts”.

Unearned income from contracted operations with future maturities is not recognized in the financial information. The market value of these contracts, if they were settled at March 31, 2006, would generate a loss of approximately R$ 44,263.

b.
Credit risk
   
 

The Company is potentially exposed to credit risk in relation to its trade accounts receivable, long and short-term investments and derivative instruments. The Company limits the risk associated with these financial instruments by subjecting them to the control of highly rated financial institutions that operate within the limits pre-established by the credit and financing committees.

The concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is minimized due to the spread of its client base, since the Company does not have any customer or group representing 10% or more of its consolidated revenues, as well as granting credits for customers with solid financial and operational ratios. Generally, the Company does not require a guarantee for domestic accounts receivable.

   
c.
Grain purchase price risks
   
 
The Company’s operations are exposed to the volatility in prices of grain (corn and soybean) used in the preparation of animal feed for its breeding stock, where the price variation results from factors beyond the control of management, such as climate, the size of the harvest, transport and storage costs and government agricultural policies, among others. The Company does not enter into futures or options contracts to hedge against fluctuations in the prices of the commodities, however it maintains a risk management strategy, based on physical control, which includes purchase of grain at fixed and fixable prices. The Company has a Grains Committee, composed of the chief executive officer and financial and operational executives. Its aim is to permanently monitor changes in scenarios, establishing limits of authority for purchase or sale.
   
d.
Estimated market values
   
 

Financial assets and liabilities are presented in the interim financial information balance sheet at cost plus accrued income and expenses and are stated according to their corresponding expected realization or settlement.

The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the disclosure of the fair value of its financial instruments as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005:



43


Sadia S.A.

 

Notes to the interim financial information (Unaudited)

(In thousands of Reais)




Cash and cash equivalents: The book values of cash and banks recorded in the balance sheet are similar to the respective fair values.
   
Short-term financial investments: The fair value of short-term financial investments is estimated based on the market quotations of comparable contracts.
   
Accounts receivable and payable: The book values of accounts receivable and payable recorded in the balance sheet are similar to their respective fair values.
   
Short and long-term loans and financing: The market values of loans and financing were calculated based on their present value calculated through the future cash flows and using interest rates applicable to instruments of similar nature, terms and risks, or based on the market quotation of these securities. The market values of BNDES financing are similar to the book values, since there are no similar instruments with comparable maturities and interest rates.
   
Exchange and interest rate swap contracts: The fair values of exchange and interest rate swap contracts were estimated based on market quotations for comparable contracts. As of March 31, 2006 the contracted amounts in force totaled R$ 829,283 (R$2,381,603 in December 31, 2005) and the valuation of these contracts to fair value would result in losses of R$44,738 (losses of R$31,227 in December 31, 2005). The effective cash settlements of the contracts occur on the respective maturities of each agreement. The Company does not intend to settle these contracts before their maturity.
   

The market values were estimated on the balance sheet date, based on “relevant market information”. Changes in the assumptions may significantly affect these estimates.

The book values and the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 are presented in the table below. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount for which the instrument could be traded between interested parties under current market conditions.

Insurance (not reviewed by auditors)
     
 
The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted a policy of maintaining insurance coverage at levels that management considers adequate to cover any risks related to liability or damages involving their assets. Due to the characteristics of the operations carried out in multiple locations, management takes out insurance for maximum possible loss in a single event, which covers fire, comprehensive general liability and miscellaneous risks (storms, lightning and floods). The Company also takes out insurance for the transportation of goods, personal injury and vehicles.
     
     
23
Private pension plan
     
 
a.
Defined contribution plan
     
   

The Company and its subsidiary Concórdia S.A. C.V.M.C.C. are the sponsors of a defined contribution social security plan for employees managed by Fundação Attílio Francisco Xavier Fontana.

The supplementary pension benefit is defined as the difference between (i) the benefit wage (updated average of the last 12 participation salaries, limited to 80% of the last participation salary) and (ii) the amount of the pension paid by the National Institute of Social Security. The supplementary benefit is updated on the same base date and in accordance with the rates applicable to the main activity category of the Company, discounting real gains.

The actuarial system is that of capitalization for supplementary retirement and pension benefits and of simple apportionment for the supplementary disability compensation. The Company’s contribution is based on a fixed percentage of the payroll of active participants, as annually recommended by independent actuaries and approved by the trustees of Fundação Attilio Francisco Xavier Fontana.

At March 31, 2006 and 2005, the parent company contributions totaled R$499 and R$484 respectively, and the consolidated contributions, R$514 and R$497, respectively.

According to the Foundation’s statutes, the sponsoring companies are jointly liable for the obligations undertaken by the Foundation on behalf of its participants and dependents.

At March 31, 2006 the Foundation had a total of 21,357 participants (21,697 at December 31, 2005), of which 17,760 were active participants (18,156 at December 31, 2005).
     
b.
Defined contribution plan
     
   

As from January 1, 2003, the Company began to adopt new supplementary social security plans under the defined contribution modality for all employees hired by Sadia and its subsidiaries. Under the terms of the regulations, plans are funded on an equitable basis so that the portion paid by the Company is equal to the payment made by the employee in accordance with a contribution scale based on salary bands that vary between 1.5% and 6% of the employee’s remuneration, observing a contribution limit that is updated annually. The contributions made by the Company at March 31, 2006 and 2005 totaled R$642 and R$506 respectively. As of March 31, 2006 this plan had 13,325 participants (11,563 at December 31, 2005).

Additional information
     
 
The statements of cash flow and added value are presented as additional information to the financial information. As a result of the reclassification of the breeding stock, done in June 30, 2005, the statements of cash flows and added value as of March 31, 2005, were adjusted in order to reflect this reclassification and maintain comparability with the information as of March 31, 2006.
