Bachoco Issues Statement Regarding Rumors in Networks

Industrias Bachoco S.A.B. de C.V. ("Bachoco"), national leader in the production and marketing of poultry products in Mexico, announces, with respect to rumors appearing in social networks and other media, related to the tender offer consummated by Bachoco on September 1, 2023 ("Offer"), pursuant to Article 108 of the Ley del Mercado de Valores (the “Mexican Securities Market Law”), that it has not been notified of any judicial resolution that has the effects referred to in such news rumors.

However, if as a result of any process initiated by any alleged shareholder, a suspension as described in the aforementioned media were to be decreed, it would necessarily refer to a consummated and executed fact, therefore, with the information available, we do not consider that it could imply the suspension, modification or termination of the tender offer that has already taken effect as of September 1, 2023, since this type of resolutions do not have restitutory effects and cannot affect consummated situations. In the Offer, it is only pending the conclusion of the sales and purchases voluntarily made by the shareholders who wish to do so. To affect an authorized and executed Offer would affect not only Bachoco but also the investing public that in good faith participated in such Offer, in addition to affecting the healthy functioning of the markets. It is surprising the lack of ethics in spreading rumors, affecting the investing public, and the undue excitation of the judicial power to try to obtain illegitimate advantages, which translate into blackmail that has only caused uncertainty in these processes.

Consequently, regardless of press releases and rumors, which we do not consider to be material, Bachoco announces that, as of today, it is not aware of any suspension of the tender offer process and intends to honor its offer to the investing public on its terms.

We reiterate that the documents relating to the offer referred to in this press release are available at www.bmv.com.mx and https://www.gob.mx/cnbv.
