Nine-month period ended September 30, 2007

(In thousands of Reais)

1 Operations

The Company’s main business activities are organized into four operational segments: processed products, poultry, pork and beef. The large production chain permits its products to be commercialized in Brazil and abroad by retailers, small groceries and food service chains.

The Company distributes its products through a large number of sales points in the local market and exports to countries in Europe, the Middle East, Eurasia, Asia and the Americas. The Company has 13 industrial units and 16 distribution centers located in 14 Brazilian states.

The industrially processed products segment has been the principal focus of the Company’s investments in recent years and comprises products such as oven-ready frozen food, refrigerated pizzas and pasta, margarine, industrially processed poultry and pork by-products, crumbed products, a diet line and pre-sliced ready-packed products and desserts.

The Company has a corporate governance tier one listing for its shares on the São Paulo Stock Exchange, in compliance with Level I of Corporate Governance, the Madrid Stock Exchange (Latibex) and ADRs negotiated on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

2 Presentation of the interim financial information

The individual and consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Reais, unless otherwise states and were prepared in accordance with accounting practices derived from the Brazilian Corporation Law and the rules of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM).

With the objective of presenting additional information to the market, the Company is presenting supplementary consolidated information, obtained from accounting records of the parent company and its subsidiaries, as follows:

a. Statement of cash flows

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

(In thousands of Reais)

b. Statement of added value

The value added statement has been presented in accordance with the model proposed by the foundation Instituto de Pesquisa Contábeis, Atuariais e Financeiras - University of Sao Paulo the aim of which is to show the value of the wealth generated by the Company and its distribution among the elements that contributed to its generation.

3 Description of significant accounting policies

a.      Statement of income
 
 
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. In addition, the Company offers sales and incentives and discounts through various programs to customers, which are accounted for as a reduction of revenue in Sales deductions. Sales incentives include volume-based incentive programs and payments to customers for performing marketing activities on our behalf.
 
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 and the foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognized in the statement of income for the period.
 
c.      Accounting estimates
 
 
The preparation of the interim 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 and liabilities, 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 different amounts due to the lack of precision inherent to the process of their determination. The Company reviews the estimates and assumptions periodically.

Notes to the interim financial information (Unaudited)

(In thousands of Reais)

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 plus 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 balance sheet date.

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), 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 based on the respective net equity calculated on the same date, as disclose Note 10.

Sadia S.A.

Notes to the interim financial information (Unaudited)

(In thousands of Reais)

The interim financial information from foreign subsidiaries are 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 extend 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, as disclosed in Note 11. 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 allocation 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 straight line method. The productive cycle ranges from fifteen to thirty months.

i. Impairment of long lived assets

The Company reviews its property, plant and equipment to verify possible impairment losses, 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. These reviews have not indicated the need to recognize impairment losses.

j. Deferred charges

Deferred charges are represented substantially by pre-operating costs incurred in the implementation of software, reorganization charges and development of new products and markets, which 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 interim financial information when the Company and its subsidiaries have a long term liability of uncertain value or as a result of a past event and it is probable that financial resources will have to be used to settle this 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 tax loss carry forward 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

Company’s production facilities and forestry activities are subject to government environmental regulations. The risks associated with environmental questions are reduced through operational controls and procedures, as well as investments in equipment and systems for pollution control. Management believes that no provision for losses related to environmental questions are currently necessary, based on existing Brazilian laws and regulations.

p. Investment subsidies

The Company has investment subsidies programmed to expire between 2014 and 2020, granted by the governments of the states of Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso where some of its industrial plants are located. Until March 31, 2007, these subsidies were recognized in the income for the year, since they were not directly related to the Company’s investment projects. As amply disclosed to the market, the Company has been investing in a project for expanding and modernizing its production units, which consists of an increase in installed capacity, expansion of its industrial park, an increase in production and generation of jobs. As from April 1st, 2007, these states have tied the subsidies to investments, which led the Company to record the aforementioned subsidy in Capital Reserves in shareholders’ equity. The amount recorded for these subsidies at September 30, 2007 was R$15,090. (R$ 10,575 on June 30, 2007)

4 Interim consolidated financial information

The transactions and balances between the Parent company 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 to the inventory balances for each period. Minority interests were excluded from shareholders’ equity and net income and are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets and income statements.

Several cases related to payment of social security contributions, PIS (Social Integration Program Tax), import taxes and others totaling a provision of R$9,694.

The Company has other contingencies of a tax nature, in the amount of R$714,402, which was evaluated as representing a possible loss by the legal advisors and by Company management, therefore, no provision has been recorded. These contingencies refers mainly to questions raised regarding ICMS credits in the amount of R$174,459, IPI Credit premium, in the amount of R$185,148, and payment of social security contributions, in the amount of R$174,458.

On March 9, 2007 the Company obtained the appeal decision from the Federal Regional Court referring to its PIS proceeding contesting the constitutionality of Law 9718/98 which amended the PIS and COFINS calculation base, including operating and financial revenue. The Federal High Court of Justice ruled this matter was unconstitutional on November 9, 2005. The Company has been calculating and paying this tax in accordance with the law. When the final decision has been published the Company may recognize a credit for the amount of approximately R$14 million.

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.

Realization of the credits from deferred tax assets arising from tax losses and the negative social contribution base, represented by R$6,311 in the parent company and R$4,098 in the overseas subsidiary, will occur from future profits being generated in the respective companies. Management anticipates that the tax asset reported by the parent company will be realized in full during this year. Management anticipates that the tax asset reported by the overseas subsidiary will be realized within three years.

22 Risk management and financial instruments

The Company’s operations that are exposed to market risks, mainly with respect to foreign currency variations, credit risks and variations in the prices of agricultural commodities – corn, soy bean and derivatives. These risks are managed by the Risk Management area, through identification of exposures and correlations between the different risk factors, using the specific calculation method, VAR – Value at Risk and simulations of scenarios, and are permanently monitored by the Financial Committee and by the Commodities and Risk Management Committee, consisting of members of the Board of Directors, who are responsible for defining management’s strategy for administering these risks, determining the limits for positions, exposure and authority for decision making. At September 30, 2007, the VAR-Value at Risk for the operational assets and liabilities and financial instruments exposed to exchange rate variations for one year with 95% confidence, amounted to R$70,366, representing 2.55% of shareholders’ equity (Information not audited)

a. Exchange rate 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, 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 and expected transactions recorded under financial results and gross margin, The nominal value of these contracts is not recorded in the interim financial information.

The results from futures contracts, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, resulted in a gain of R$52,003 (R$42,564 for the same period from 2006), represented by a loss of R$20,885 reported to financial results as foreign exchange liability variations and a gain for the amount of R$72,888 to operational results, recorded as gross operational income.

The results from over-the-counter operations on the currency futures market, realized and not liquidated and the daily adjustments of positions for future currency contracts on the Futures and Commodities Exchange – BM&F have been registered in the quarterly information, respectively, as “accounts receivable from futures contracts” and “accounts payable from futures contracts”.

The unrealized results from over-the-counter operations contracted for future maturity, have not been recognized in the accounting records. As from December 2006, these contracts have been segregated and defined as operational or financial contracts, depending on the object they seek to protect. The value of these contracts, if they had been registered at September 30, 2007, would result in an expense of R$27,608 to financial results and income of R$109,507 to operational results.

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 sales, however it has contracted an insurance credit policy to its domestic receivables.

c.      Grain purchase price risks

  • 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.
