"Our third quarter reflects strong earnings growth in our protein
business, and we are particularly pleased with the performance of our
consumer-facing prepared meats operations," said Michael H. McCain,
President and CEO. "We are managing high commodity costs through
pricing, cost reduction and continuing to drive higher value product
innovation. Our strategic value creation initiatives are also
contributing to results and we are on track to deliver sustained
earnings growth."

operations before restructuring and other related costs and associated
gains, other income and the impact of the change in fair value of
non-designated interest rate swaps, unrealized (gains) losses on
commodity futures contracts and the change in fair value of biological
assets.

in fair value of non-designated interest rate swaps, unrealized (gains)
losses on commodity futures contracts, and the change in fair value of
biological assets, net of tax and non-controlling interest.

Financial Measures at the end of this news release.
Financial Overview
Sales for the third quarter of 2011 decreased 2% to $1,262.2 million
compared to $1,293.2 million last year. After adjusting for the impacts
of divestitures and a stronger Canadian dollar, sales increased by 6%,
primarily as a result of higher selling prices.
Adjusted Operating Earnings increased to $73.3 million compared to $62.7
million last year, driven by stronger performance in the Protein Group.
Adjusted Earnings per Share increased to $0.34, including $9.8 million
($0.07 per share) related to a tax adjustment associated with a prior
acquisition, compared to $0.22 last year.
Net earnings increased to $43.0 million ($0.29 basic earnings per share)
in the third quarter compared to a net loss of $19.9 million ($0.16
basic loss per share) last year. Net earnings included $4.9 million
($0.03 per share) of pre-tax costs related to restructuring activities
(2010: $50.0 million).
Several items are excluded from the discussions of underlying earnings
performance during the quarter. These include restructuring charges,
mark-to-market adjustments on hedging contracts that are not designated
in a hedging relationship and mark-to-market adjustments related to
biological assets. Restructuring charges are excluded as they do not
reflect the continuing earnings performance of the business.
Mark-to-market adjustments do not reflect the economic effect of the
hedging transactions and are excluded from earnings discussions until
the underlying asset is sold or transferred. Refer to the section

Meat Products Group
Includes value-added prepared meats, chilled meal entrees and lunch kits; and fresh
pork, poultry and turkey products sold to retail,
foodservice,industrial and convenience channels. Includes leading
Canadian brands such as Maple Leaf , Schneiders and many leading sub-brands.
Meat Products Group sales for the third quarter decreased 7% to $777.2
million from $834.7 million in the third quarter last year, largely due
to the sale of the Company's Burlington, Ontario primary pork
processing operation in November 2010. After adjusting for this
divestiture and the impact of a stronger Canadian dollar that reduced
the sales value of pork exports, sales increased by 4%. Higher market
prices in fresh pork, price increases in prepared meats and value-added
poultry, and improved sales mix in the prepared meats business
contributed to higher sales. These benefits were partly offset by lower
retail sales volumes in prepared meats.
Adjusted Operating Earnings in the Meat Products Group for the third
quarter were $20.8 million, compared to $19.5 million last year, as
margin expansion driven by price increases, improved mix, and cost
reduction in prepared meats was largely offset by weaker primary
processing markets.
Prepared meats earnings and margins increased as a result of price
increases implemented earlier in the year to offset rising input costs,
improved sales product mix, and early benefits from the Company's value
creation plan. These benefits were partly offset by lower sales volumes
and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
Earnings in primary pork processing operations declined slightly, as the
benefits of strong exports and better product sales mix were offset by
compression in primary pork processor margins in North America and the
unfavourable impact of a stronger Canadian dollar.
Earnings from poultry processing operations declined significantly
driven by a continued rise in live birds costs as a result of increased
feed prices.
On October 19th the Company announced the approval by its Board of
Directors to invest approximately $560 million in its prepared meats
manufacturing and distribution network as part of its broader value
creation plan. Over the next three years the Company will close six
plants, consolidating production into four scale facilities, and close
four distribution centres, consolidating operations at its existing
distribution centre in Saskatoon and into a new facility in Ontario.
These changes, and the implementation of world-class technologies, are
expected to significantly enhance productivity and contribute to
continued margin expansion in this business.
Related to the early execution of initiatives within the value creation
plan, on September 30th the Company completed the sale of its Surrey,
B.C., plant and recorded a gain before taxes on the sale of $4.1
million. In addition, the Company estimated that it would record $170
million in restructuring and other related costs from 2012 to 2015
related to its three key strategic projects;the prepared meats
manufacturing and distribution network, the implementation of SAP and
the new fresh bakery in Hamilton, Ontario. This estimate includes $120
million in cash restructuring and other related costs.
Agribusiness Group
Consists of Canadian hog production and animal by-product recycling
operations.
Sales in the Agribusiness Group increased 43% to $67.9 million compared
to $47.5 million last year driven by higher sales prices in the
by-products recycling business, which reflect higher commodity values.
Adjusted Operating Earnings in the Agribusiness Group in the third
quarter increased to $25.4 million compared to $15.6 million last year,
also benefited from higher prices for recycled by-products. Lower
earnings in hog production resulted from higher feed costs that
outpaced increases in hog prices, combined with the unfavourable impact
of a stronger Canadian dollar.
Bakery Products Group
Includes fresh and frozen bakery products, including breads, rolls, bagels, specialty and
artisan breads, sweet goods, and fresh pasta and sauces sold to retail,
foodservice and convenience channels. It includes national brands such
as Dempster's, Tenderflake, Olivieri and New York Bakery CoTM, and many leading regional brands.
Bakery Products Group sales for the third quarter increased to $417.0
million compared to $411.1 million last year. After adjusting for the
sale of the Company's fresh sandwich product line in February of 2011
and currency translation on sales in the U.S. and U.K., sales increased
5%, primarily due to price increases implemented earlier in 2011. A
modest increase in overall sales volumes reflected higher retail sales
volume in fresh bakery operations and continued strength in bagel
volumes in the U.K. bakery business following the re-launch of the New
York Bakery Co.TM brand earlier in the year. Sales volumes in North American frozen
bakery operations declined slightly compared to last year.
Adjusted Operating Earnings in the Bakery Products Group for the third
quarter were $28.1 million, compared to $28.3 million last year. The
Company experienced some margin compression as price increases
implemented earlier in the year were not sufficient to fully offset the
impact of the continued rise of raw material costs. Lower costs
resulting from improved operating efficiencies in the Company's frozen
bakery business and lower selling, general and administrative expenses
contributed to earnings. During the quarter the Company also benefited
from the sale of its fresh sandwich product line in the first quarter
of 2011.
During the quarter, the fresh bakery business recorded approximately
$2.3 million of duplicative overhead costs as the Company continues to
operate three sub-scale bakeries as it gradually transitions production
to its newly commissioned fresh bakery in Hamilton, Ontario, which
officially opened on September 28, 2011. Production lines for rolls
and breads are now in operation, and another two lines are planned to
start commercial production by the end of 2011. The final four lines,
including flat breads, are planned for 2012. The Company plans to
gradually transfer production from three bakeries in the Greater
Toronto Area, and proceed with their closures between the end of 2011
through to early 2013.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
The Company uses the following non-IFRS measures: Adjusted Operating
Earnings and Adjusted EPS. Management believes that these non-IFRS
measures provide useful information to both Management and investors in
measuring the financial performance of the Company for the reasons
outlined below. These measures do not have a standardized meaning
prescribed by IFRS and therefore they may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded companies
and should not be construed as an alternative to other financial
measures determined in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted Operating Earnings
The following table reconciles earnings from operations before
restructuring and other related costs and associated gains, other
income (expense) and the impact of the change in fair value of
non-designated interest rate swaps, unrealized (gains) losses on
commodity futures contracts and the change in fair value of biological
assets to net earnings as reported under IFRS in the unaudited
condensed consolidated interim statements of earnings for the three
month periods ended as indicated below. Management believes that this
is the most appropriate basis on which to evaluate operating results,
as restructuring and other related costs, other income (expense) and
the change in fair value of non-designated interest rate swaps,
unrealized (gains) losses on commodity futures contracts and the change
in fair value of biological assets are not representative of
operational results during the period.
