ANNUAL REPORT 2009 7energetic efficiency in this manufacturing site.Undoubtedly, in the current environment the success of all these projects depends to a large extent on therecovery in volumes and our natural rate of growth in this market; also on our commitment to an ongoingimprovement in competiveness, and on the continuation of our controlled cost and investment policies, whichhave enabled us to tackle the difficulties of 2009.At the same time, I would also like to draw attention to the excellent results in the vegetable food division.The IAN Group has once again demonstrated the strength of its leadership position, and in what have beenparticularly adverse conditions: economic crisis and falling consumption in Spain, with consumers, big retailchains, and other competitors all shifting towards low prices against a backdrop of high raw material costs. Evenfaced with such conditions, it managed to produce positive results, despite sacrificing margins, thanks to theleading position of its Carretilla brand, the contracts with distribution brands, and the advances made in newimprove quality for the consumer.All these projects enjoy the backing of a solid financial situation (26% net debt over Equity) that enables us tocontinue investing in growth but without having to renounce increases in shareholder remuneration. This meansthat for this year we have proposed for approval an overall remuneration of 0.623 per share, in the form ofinterim dividend, issue premium, and AGM attendance bonus. This represents a 25% increase on the same periodlast year. With this increase, shareholders will participate in the growth in last year’s results and in the strengthof the company’s cash flow, which made possible an increase in both shareholder remuneration and investments(+2.8%) as well as a reduction in net debt of 26%.This solid financial position enables us to take on 2010 with certain guarantees, despite the huge uncertaintiesthat continue to hang over the global economy, with the unprecedented measures that have been taken by bothpublic and private institutions to restore and strengthen growth. In such an environment, our customers haveincreased their demands in order to improve their on competitiveness, and the Viscofan Group is respondingmarket in the world.At Viscofan, we continue to set ourselves ambitious growth targets, not just in revenues but also in profitability,and for this reason I would like to thank publically the exceptional group of individuals, which through its hardwork and commitment on a daily basis, combines its vast knowledge and best efforts with a clear focus on theproduction and service excellence that make this Group a unique leader. This gratitude would not be completewithout an emotional remembrance to Mr. Iñigo Solaun, Director of Viscofan until his retirement on December31, and who sadly died in February, leaving with us the memory of his fine human and professional qualities,remembrance that I extend to all those Viscofan colleagues that, like him, died last year.And, for the first time as Chairman of Viscofan, I would not like to finish this letter without thanking youpersonally for your confidence as a shareholder in this company, a leader with a clear commitment to valuecreation, and from which position I hope to count on your support for a future full of opportunities.Your faithfully,José Domingo de Ampuero y Osma
