In M€

Corn and sunflower. Europe Drop in sales over the 4th quarter mainly due to the seasonal nature of invoicing at the end

of the 3rd quarter

Increase in business for fiscal year 2016-2017, in a context this year once again

characterized by the low level of prices for agricultural production and strong pressure on

pricing policies

Decline in the sales of corn seeds:

Mainly in Western Europe, directly caused by the reduction in cultivated acreage

In spite of significant business increase in Ukraine and Russia

Remarkable increase in sales of sunflower seeds (Ukraine and Russia), confirming the

quality of the product portfolio, and demonstrating gains in market shares

Corn. Other zones (South America, Asia and Africa)Very strong increase in business, particularly with extremely strong growth for the second

corn commercial campaign in Brazil (Safrinha), embodying gains in market shares

Corn. North America (AgReliant(1))Drop in volumes of marketed corn seeds, proportionately to the estimated reduction of

cultivated acreage for this crop

Corn. Africa (Seed Co(1))Fiscal year of excellent quality with strong growth driven by sales of corn seeds
