BUNGE LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Bunge Limited and its subsidiaries (Bunge) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010 has been derived from Bunges audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010, forming part of Bunges 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2011.
2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Receivables, Disclosures about the Credit of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses - In July 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard that amended a previously issued standard requiring an entity to include additional disaggregated disclosures in their financial statements about their financing receivables, including credit risk disclosures and the allowance for credit losses. Entities with financing receivables are required to disclose a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses, certain credit quality information, impaired loan information, modification information and past due information. Trade receivables with maturities of less than one year are excluded from the scope of the new disclosures. Bunge adopted this disclosure as of December 31, 2010. As a result of the adoption of this standard, we have expanded our disclosures (see Note 9). The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results from operations or cash flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments in this Update are intended to result in convergence between U.S. GAAP and IFRS requirements for measurement of, and disclosures about, fair value. ASU 2011-04 clarifies or changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Bunge is evaluating the impact this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. The guidance allows two presentation alternatives: (1) present items of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income; or (2) in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. This standard is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, but full retrospective application is required under both sets of accounting standards. Bunge is evaluating the impact this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
In the first quarter of 2011, Bunge completed the acquisition of a port facility in Ukraine for a total purchase price of approximately $100 million net of $2 million cash acquired, consisting of approximately $83 million in cash and approximately $17 million of short-term debt related to assets under construction. The preliminary purchase price allocation for the transaction included approximately $5 million to current assets, $48 million
to property, plant and equipment, $32 million to other intangible assets, $34 million to goodwill, $10 million to capital lease obligations, $6 million to deferred tax liabilities and $3 million to other liabilities.
In February 2010, Bunge acquired a 100% interest in five Brazilian sugarcane mills in São Paulo and Minas Gerais states that were formerly part of the Moema Group through the acquisition of Usina Moema Participacões S.A. (Moema Par) and remaining interests in four mills that were not wholly-owned by Moema Par. Bunge collectively refers to the acquired entities as Moema. Bunge issued an aggregate of 10,315,400 common shares and paid $52 million in cash as purchase consideration in the acquisition.
4. BUSINESS DIVESTITURE
On May 27, 2010, Bunge sold its fertilizer nutrients assets in Brazil, including its interest in Fertilizantes Fosfatados S.A. (Fosfertil) to Vale S.A., a Brazil-based global mining company. Final settlement of a post-closing adjustment occurred on August 13, 2010. Bunge received total cash proceeds of $3,914 million and recognized a gain of $2,440 million ($1,901 million net of tax) in its fertilizer segment related to this transaction. Assets and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows related to Bunges fertilizer nutrients assets, including its interest in Fosfertil were included in the condensed consolidated financial statements until the transaction closing date of May 27, 2010.
Approximately $142 million of transaction costs and $275 million of withholding taxes are included as a component of cash used for operating activities in Bunges condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Gross proceeds of $3,886 million and cash disposed of $106 million related to the sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets are included as a component of cash provided by investing activities in Bunges condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

(1) Prepaid commodity purchase contracts represent advance payments against fixed priced contracts for future delivery of specified quantities of agricultural commodities. These contracts are recorded at fair value based on prices of the underlying agricultural commodities.
(2) Bunge provides cash advances to suppliers, primarily Brazilian farmers of soybeans and other agricultural commodities, to finance a portion of the suppliers production costs. Bunge does not bear any of the costs or risks associated with the related growing crops. The advances are largely collateralized by future crops and physical assets of the suppliers, carry a local market interest rate and settle when the farmers crop is harvested and sold. The secured advances to farmers are reported net of allowances of $4 million at June 30, 2011 and $3 million at December 31, 2010. Changes in the allowance for the six months ended June 30, 2011 included an increase of $1 million for additional bad debt provisions. Changes in the allowance for the year ended 2010 included an increase of $1 million for additional bad debt provisions and a reduction in the allowance for recoveries of $1 million.
Interest earned on secured advances to suppliers of $5 million and $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $12 million and $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is included in net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
(3) Margin deposits include U.S. treasury securities at fair value and cash.
(4) Deferred purchase price receivable represents additional credit support for the investment conduits in Bunges accounts receivables sales programs (see Note 12) and is recognized at its estimated fair value.

(2) Bunges Brazilian subsidiarys tax deductible goodwill is in excess of its book goodwill. For financial reporting purposes, for goodwill acquired prior to 2009, the tax benefits attributable to the excess tax goodwill are first used to reduce associated goodwill and then other intangible assets to zero, prior to recognizing any income tax benefit in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
8. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES
In June 2011, Bunge sold its entire investment in an oilseed processing facility joint venture for $57 million. Bunge recognized a gain of $37 million in equity in earnings of affiliates on this sale during the second quarter of 2011.

Recoverable taxesRecoverable taxes are reported net of valuation allowances of $39 million and $38 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Long-term receivables from farmers in BrazilBunge provides financing to farmers in Brazil, primarily through secured advances against farmer commitments to deliver agricultural commodities (primarily soybeans) upon harvest of the then-current years crop and through credit sales of fertilizer to farmers. These are commercial transactions that are intended to be short-term in nature with amounts expected to be repaid either in cash or through delivery to Bunge of agricultural commodities when the related crops are harvested. These arrangements are typically secured by the farmers expected current year crop and liens on land, buildings and equipment to ensure recoverability in the event of crop failure. The terms of fertilizer credit sales do not include interest. The secured advances against commitments to deliver soybeans provide for interest between the advance date and the scheduled soybean delivery date. The credit factors considered by Bunge in evaluating farmers before initial advance or extension of credit include, among other things, the credit history of the farmer, financial strength, available agricultural land and available collateral in addition to the expected crop.
Upon farmer default, Bunge generally initiates legal proceedings to recover the defaulted amounts. However, the legal recovery process through the judicial system is a long-term process, generally spanning a number of years. As a result, once accounts have been submitted to the judicial process for recovery, Bunge may also seek to renegotiate certain terms with the defaulting farmer in order to accelerate recovery.
Bunge adopted the accounting guidance on disclosure about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2010. This guidance requires information to be disclosed at disaggregated levels, defined as portfolio segments and classes. Based upon its analysis of credit losses and risk factors to be considered in determining the allowance for credit losses, Bunge has determined that the long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil is a single portfolio segment.
Bunge evaluates this single portfolio segment by class of receivables, which is defined as a level of information (below a portfolio segment) in which the receivables have the same initial measurement attribute and a similar method for assessing and monitoring risk. Bunge has identified accounts in legal collection processes and
renegotiated amounts as classes of long-term receivables from farmers. Valuation allowances for accounts in legal collection processes are determined by Bunge on individual accounts based on the fair value of the collateral provided as security for the secured advance or credit sale. The fair value is determined using a combination of internal and external resources, including published information concerning Brazilian land values by region. For determination of the valuation allowances for renegotiated amounts, Bunge considers historical experience with the individual farmers, current weather and crop conditions, as well as the fair value of non-crop collateral.
For both classes, a long-term receivable from farmers in Brazil is considered impaired, based on current information and events, if Bunge determines it to be probable that all amounts due under the original terms of the receivable will not be collected. Recognition of interest income on secured advances to farmers is suspended once the farmer defaults on the originally scheduled delivery of agricultural commodities as the collection of future income is determined to not be probable. No additional interest income is accrued from the point of default until ultimate recovery, where amounts collected are credited first against the receivable and then to any unrecognized interest income.

Judicial depositsJudicial deposits are funds that Bunge has placed on deposit with the courts in Brazil. These funds are held in judicial escrow relating to certain legal proceedings pending legal resolution and bear interest at the SELIC rate (benchmark rate of the Brazilian central bank).
Other long-term receivablesOther long-term receivables at December 31, 2010 primarily include installment payments to be received from Bunges sale of its 33.34% interest in Saipol S.A.S. in December 2009 for 145 million Euros, or its equivalent at that date of approximately $209 million. The sale agreement provided for payment in four equal annual installments, two of which had been received as of January 2011. In the second quarter 2011, Bunge sold this receivable and recognized an approximate $2 million loss in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Bunges various financial instruments include certain components of working capital such as cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable. Additionally, Bunge uses short- and long-term debt to fund operating requirements. Cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable and short-term debt are stated at their carrying value, which is a reasonable estimate of fair value. See Note 12 for deferred purchase price receivable (DPP) related to sales of trade receivables. See Note 9 for long-term receivables from farmers in Brazil, net and see Note 13 for long-term debt. Bunges financial instruments also include derivative instruments and marketable securities, which are stated at fair value.
Fair value is the expected price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in Bunges principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants on the measurement date. Bunge determines the fair values of its readily marketable inventories, derivatives and certain other assets based on the fair value hierarchy established in a FASB issued standard, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs based on market data obtained from sources independent of Bunge that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are inputs that are developed based on the best information available in circumstances that reflect Bunges own assumptions based on market data and on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The standard describes three levels within its hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value.
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include exchange traded derivative contracts.
Level 2: Observable inputs, including Level 1 prices (adjusted); quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are less active than traded exchanges; and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include readily marketable inventories and over-the-counter (OTC) commodity purchase and sale contracts and other OTC derivatives whose value is determined using pricing models with inputs that are generally based on exchange traded prices, adjusted for location specific inputs that are primarily observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are a significant component of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. In evaluating the significance of fair value inputs, Bunge gives consideration to items that individually, or when aggregated with other inputs, generally represent more than 10% of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. For such identified inputs, judgments are required when evaluating both quantitative and qualitative factors in the determination of significance for purposes of fair value level classification and disclosure. Level 3 assets and liabilities include assets and liabilities whose value is determined using proprietary pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as assets and liabilities for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The majority of Bunges exchange traded agricultural commodity futures are settled daily generally through its clearing subsidiary and therefore, such futures are not included in the table below. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is a significant component of the fair value measurement. The lowest level of input is considered Level 3. Bunges assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the classification of fair value assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy levels. The following table sets forth, by level, Bunges assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

(1) Unrealized gains on designated and undesignated derivative contracts are generally included in other current assets. Included in other non-current assets are unrealized gains of $14 million and zero at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
(2) Other assets include primarily the fair values of U.S. Treasury securities held as margin deposits.
(3) Unrealized losses on designated and undesignated derivative contracts are generally included in other current liabilities. There are no such amounts included in other non-current liabilities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
(4) Included in current portion of long-term debt are unrealized losses of $23 million and $22 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Derivatives Exchange traded futures and options contracts are valued based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1. Bunges forward commodity purchase and sale contracts are classified as derivatives along with other OTC derivative instruments relating primarily to freight, energy, foreign exchange and interest rates, and are classified within Level 2 or Level 3 as described below. Bunge estimates fair values based on exchange quoted prices, adjusted as appropriate for differences in local markets. These differences are generally valued using inputs from broker or dealer quotations, or market transactions in either the listed or OTC markets. In such cases, these derivative contracts are classified within Level 2. Changes in the fair values of these
contracts are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a component of cost of goods sold, foreign exchange gains (losses), other income (expense), net or other comprehensive income (loss).
OTC derivative contracts include swaps, options and structured transactions that are valued at fair value generally determined using quantitative models that require the use of multiple market inputs including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets which are not highly active, other observable inputs relevant to the asset or liability, and market inputs corroborated by correlation or other means. These valuation models include inputs such as interest rates, prices and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves and volatility factors. Where observable inputs are available for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, the instrument is categorized in Level 2. Certain OTC derivatives trade in less active markets with less availability of pricing information and certain structured transactions can require internally developed model inputs that might not be observable in or corroborated by the market. When unobservable inputs have a significant impact on the measurement of fair value, the instrument is categorized in Level 3.
Bunge designates certain derivative instruments as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges and assesses, both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether derivatives that are designated as hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged items or anticipated cash flows.
Readily marketable inventories The majority of Bunges readily marketable commodity inventories are valued at fair value. These agricultural commodity inventories are readily marketable, have quoted market prices and may be sold without significant additional processing. Changes in the fair values of these inventories are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income as a component of cost of goods sold.
Readily marketable inventories reported at fair value are valued based on commodity futures exchange quotations, broker or dealer quotations, or market transactions in either listed or OTC markets with appropriate adjustments for differences in local markets where Bunges inventories are located. In such cases, the inventory is classified within Level 2. Certain inventories may utilize significant unobservable data related to local market adjustments to determine fair value. In such cases, the inventory is classified as Level 3.
If Bunge used different methods or factors to determine fair values, amounts reported as unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts and readily marketable inventories at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of income could differ. Additionally, if market conditions change subsequent to the reporting date, amounts reported in future periods as unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts and readily marketable inventories in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of income could differ.
Level 3 Valuation Bunges assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. In evaluating the significance of fair value inputs, Bunge gives consideration to items that individually, or when aggregated with other inputs, represent more than 10% of the fair value of the asset or liability. For such identified inputs, judgments are required when evaluating both quantitative and qualitative factors in the determination of significance for purposes of fair value level classification and disclosure. Because of differences in the availability of market pricing data over their terms, inputs for some assets and liabilities may fall into any one of the three levels in the fair value hierarchy or some combination thereof. While FASB guidance requires Bunge to classify these assets and liabilities in the lowest level in the hierarchy for which inputs are significant to the fair value measurement, a portion of that measurement may be determined using inputs from a higher level in the hierarchy.
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 represent existing assets or liabilities that were either previously categorized as a higher level for which the inputs to the model became unobservable or assets and liabilities that were previously classified as Level 3 for which the lowest significant input became observable during the period.
Level 3 Derivatives Level 3 derivative instruments utilize both market observable and unobservable inputs within the fair value measurements. These inputs include commodity prices, price volatility factors, interest rates, volumes and locations. In addition, with the exception of the exchange-cleared instruments where Bunge clears trades through an exchange, Bunge is exposed to loss in the event of the non-performance by counterparties on over-the-counter derivative instruments and forward purchase and sale contracts. Adjustments are made to fair values on occasions when non-performance risk is determined to represent a significant input in Bunges fair value
determination. These adjustments are based on Bunges estimate of the potential loss in the event of counterparty non-performance.
Level 3 Readily marketable inventories Readily marketable inventories are considered Level 3 when at least one significant assumption or input is unobservable. These assumptions or unobservable inputs include certain management estimations regarding costs of transportation and other local market or location-related adjustments.
The tables below present reconciliations for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Level 3 instruments presented in the tables include readily marketable inventories and derivatives.

Derivative Instruments
Interest rate derivatives Interest rate swaps used by Bunge as hedging instruments have been recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded contemporaneously in earnings. Certain of these swap agreements have been designated as fair value hedges. The carrying amount of the associated hedged debt is also adjusted through earnings for changes in the fair value arising from changes in benchmark interest rates. Ineffectiveness is recognized to the extent that these two adjustments do not offset. Bunge enters into interest rate swap agreements for the purpose of managing certain of its interest rate exposures.
Bunge also enters into certain interest rate basis swap agreements that do not qualify as hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, changes in fair value of such interest rate basis swap agreements are recorded in earnings.
The following table summarizes Bunges outstanding interest rate swap and interest rate basis swap agreements.

Foreign exchange derivatives Bunge uses a combination of foreign exchange forward and option contracts in certain of its operations to mitigate the risk from exchange rate fluctuations in connection with certain commercial and balance sheet exposures. The foreign exchange forward and option contracts may be designated as cash flow hedges. Bunge may also use net investment hedges to partially offset the translation adjustments arising from the remeasurement of its investment in certain of its foreign subsidiaries.
Bunge assesses, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedge transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged items.
The table below summarizes the notional amounts of open foreign exchange positions.

In addition, Bunge has cross-currency interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional principal amount of 10 billion Japanese Yen maturing in 2011 for the purpose of managing its currency exposure associated with its 10 billion Japanese Yen term loan due 2011. Bunge has accounted for these cross-currency interest rate swap agreements as fair value hedges.

Commodity derivatives Bunge uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to movements associated with agricultural commodity prices. Bunge generally uses exchange traded futures and options contracts to minimize the effects of changes in the prices of agricultural commodities on its agricultural commodity inventories and forward purchase and sale contracts, but may also from time-to-time enter into OTC commodity transactions, including swaps, which are settled in cash at maturity or termination based on exchange-quoted futures prices. Changes in fair values of exchange traded futures contracts representing the unrealized gains and/or losses on these instruments are settled daily generally through Bunges wholly-owned futures clearing subsidiary. Forward purchase and sale contracts are primarily settled through delivery of agricultural commodities. While Bunge considers these exchange traded futures and forward purchase and sale contracts to be effective economic hedges, Bunge does not designate or account for the majority of its commodity contracts as hedges. Changes in fair values of these contracts and related readily marketable agricultural commodity inventories are included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The forward contracts require performance of both Bunge and the contract counterparty in future periods. Contracts to purchase agricultural commodities generally relate to current or future crop years for delivery periods quoted by regulated commodity exchanges. Contracts for the sale of agricultural commodities generally do not extend beyond one future crop cycle.
In addition, Bunge may hedge portions of its forecasted oilseed processing production requirements, including forecasted purchases of soybeans and sales of soy commodity products. The instruments used are generally exchange traded futures contracts. Such contracts hedging U.S. oilseed processing activities qualify and may be designated as cash flow hedges. Contracts that are used as economic hedges of other global oilseed processing activities generally do not qualify for hedge accounting as a result of location differences and are therefore, not designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.
The table below summarizes the volumes of open agricultural commodities derivative positions.

Ocean freight derivatives Bunge uses derivative instruments referred to as freight forward agreements, or FFAs, and FFA options to hedge portions of its current and anticipated ocean freight costs. A portion of the ocean freight derivatives may be designated as fair value hedges of Bunges firm commitments to purchase time on ocean freight vessels. Changes in the fair value of the ocean freight derivatives that are qualified, designated and
highly effective as a fair value hedge, along with the gain or loss on the hedged firm commitments to purchase time on ocean freight vessels that is attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in earnings. Changes in the fair values of ocean freight derivatives that are not designated as hedges are also recorded in earnings.

(1) The gain or (loss) recognized relates to the effective portion of the hedging relationship. At June 30, 2011, Bunge expects to reclassify into income in the next 12 months approximately $4 million of after tax gains related to its agricultural commodities cash flow hedges and no after tax gains related to its foreign exchange cash flow and net investment hedges.
(2) The gain or (loss) recognized relates to the ineffective portion of the hedging relationship and to the amount excluded from the assessment of hedging effectiveness.
(3) The amount of gain recognized in income is $5 million as of June 30, 2011 which relates to the ineffective portion of the hedging relationships, and zero, which relates to the amount excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.
(4) The changes in the market value of such futures contracts have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, highly effective at offsetting changes in price movements of the hedged items. The forward exchange forward contracts mature at various dates in 2011 and 2012.
(5) Bunge pays Euros and receives U.S. dollars, offsetting the translation adjustment of its net investment in Euro assets. The swaps mature at various dates in 2011 and 2012.

(1) The gain or (loss) recognized relates to the effective portion of the hedging relationship. At June 30, 2010, Bunge expected to reclassify into income in the next 12 months approximately $1 million and zero of after tax gains related to its foreign exchange and commodities cash flow hedges, respectively.
(2) The gain or (loss) recognized relates to the ineffective portion of the hedging relationship and to the amount excluded from the assessment of hedging effectiveness.
(3) The amount of loss recognized in income is $1 million, which relates to the ineffective portion of the hedging relationships and zero, which relates to the amount excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.
(4) The foreign exchange forward contracts mature at various dates in 2010 and 2011.
(5) The changes in the market value of such futures contracts have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, highly effective at offsetting changes in price movements of the hedged items. The commodities futures contracts mature at various dates in 2010 and 2011.
(6) Bunge pays Brazilian reais and receives U.S. dollars using fixed interest rates, offsetting the translation adjustment of its net investment in Brazilian reais assets. The swaps matured at various dates during 2010.
12. TRADE RECEIVABLES SECURTIZATION PROGRAMS
In January 2010, Bunge adopted a FASB issued standard that resulted in amounts outstanding under its then existing securitization programs being accounted for as secured borrowings and reflected as short-term debt on its consolidated balance sheet. As a result of this change in accounting standards, Bunge significantly reduced its utilization of these programs and either terminated or allowed them to expire during 2010.
On June 1, 2011, Bunge and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a U.S.$700 million trade receivables securitization program (the Program) with a financial institution, as administrative agent, and certain commercial paper conduit purchasers and committed purchasers (collectively, the Purchasers). The securitization program is designed to enhance Bunges financial flexibility by providing an additional source of liquidity for its operations. In connection with the securitization program, certain of Bunges U.S. and non U.S. subsidiaries that originate trade receivables may sell eligible receivables in their entirety on a revolving basis to a consolidated bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, Bunge Securitization B.V. (BSBV) formed under the laws of The Netherlands. BSBV in turn sells such purchased trade receivables to the administrative agent (acting on behalf of the Purchasers) pursuant to a receivables transfer agreement. In connection with these sales of accounts receivable, Bunge receives a portion of the proceeds up front and an additional amount upon the collection of the underlying receivables (a deferred purchase price), which is expected to be generally between 10 and 15 percent of the aggregate amount of receivables sold through the program.
Bunge Finance B.V. (BFBV), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bunge, acts as master servicer, responsible for servicing and collecting the accounts receivable for the securitization program. The securitization program terminates on June 1, 2016. However, each committed purchasers commitment to fund trade receivables under the securitization program will terminate on May 31, 2012 unless extended for additional 364-day periods in accordance with the terms of the receivables transfer agreement. The trade receivables sold under the securitization program are subject to specified eligibility criteria, including eligible currencies and country and obligor concentration limits. BSBV purchases trade receivables from the originating Bunge subsidiaries using (i) proceeds from the sale of receivables to the administrative agent, (ii) collections of the deferred purchase price and (iii) borrowings from BFBV under a revolving subordinated loan facility.
As of June 30, 2011, $520 million of receivables sold under the Program were derecognized from Bunges condensed consolidated balance sheet. Proceeds received in cash from transfers of receivables to the Purchasers totaled $401 million. Gross receivables sold under the program since its inception in June 2011 were approximately $840 million. These sales resulted in a discount of less than $1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. Collections of previously sold receivables, including deferred purchase price, and all fees, are settled in arrears monthly, and therefore no payments were made to the Purchasers and no cash inflows were received related to the deferred purchase price during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as the first monthly settlement date under the Program had not yet occurred. Servicing fees under the program were not significant.
Bunges risk of loss following the sale of the accounts receivable is limited to the deferred purchase price, which was $119 million at June 30, 2011. The deferred purchase price will be repaid in cash as receivables are collected, generally within 30 days. Delinquencies and credit losses on accounts receivable sold under the program in 2011 were insignificant. Because the cash received up front and the deferred purchase price relate to the sale or ultimate collection of the underlying receivables, and are not subject to significant risks, other than credit risk, given their short term nature, we reflect all cash flows under the securitization program as operating cash flows in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Changes in the fair value of the deferred purchase price were not significant and are reported as investing activities in Bunges condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
13. DEBT
In March 2011, Bunge completed the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes, which bear interest at 4.10% per year. The senior notes will mature on March 15, 2016. The senior notes were issued by Bunges 100%-owned finance subsidiary, Bunge Limited Finance Corp., and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Bunge Limited. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year, commencing in September 2011. Bunge used the net proceeds from this offering of approximately $496 million, after deducting underwriters commissions and offering expenses, for general corporate purposes, including working capital.
In March 2011, Bunge entered into a syndicated, $1,750 million revolving credit agreement that matures on April 19, 2014. The credit agreement replaced the then existing $632 million, three-year and $600 million, 17-month revolving credit agreements scheduled to mature on April 16, 2011, which were terminated in accordance with their terms on March 23, 2011. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.75%, based generally on the credit ratings of our senior long-term unsecured debt. Amounts under the credit agreement that remain undrawn are subject to a commitment fee payable quarterly on the average undrawn portion of the credit agreement at 35 percent of the applicable margin. There was $450 million of borrowings outstanding under this credit agreement at June 30, 2011.
The fair value of Bunges long-term debt is based on interest rates currently available on comparable maturities to companies with credit standing similar to that of Bunge. The carrying amounts and fair value of long-term debt are as follows:

14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Bunge purchased commodities and commodity and fertilizer products from its unconsolidated joint ventures, which totaled $217 million and $133 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $413 million and $272 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Bunge also sold commodity products to these joint ventures, which totaled $119 million and $100 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $200 million and $229 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Bunge believes these transactions are recorded at values similar to those with third parties.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Bunge is party to a large number of claims and lawsuits, primarily tax and labor claims in Brazil, arising in the normal course of business. Bunge records liabilities related to its general claims and lawsuits when the exposure item becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. After taking into account the recorded liabilities for these matters, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material effect on Bunges financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Included in other non-current liabilities are the following accrued liabilities:

(1) Pursuant to the terms of the 2009 Brazilian amnesty program to settle tax and other financial claims with the Brazilian government, certain of the tax and civil and other claims were settled during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Tax Claims The tax claims relate principally to claims against Bunges Brazilian subsidiaries, including primarily value-added tax claims (ICMS, IPI, PIS and COFINS). The determination of the manner in which various Brazilian federal, state and municipal taxes apply to the operations of Bunge is subject to varying interpretations arising from the complex nature of Brazilian tax law.
Labor Claims The labor claims relate principally to claims against Bunges Brazilian subsidiaries. The labor claims primarily relate to dismissals, severance, health and safety, salary adjustments and supplementary retirement benefits.
Civil and Other The civil and other claims relate to various disputes with third parties, including suppliers and customers.
Guarantees Bunge has issued or was a party to the following guarantees at June 30, 2011:

(1) Bunge has issued guarantees to third parties in Brazil related to amounts owed to these third parties by certain of Bunges customers. The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the related financing arrangements, which are generally one year or less, with the exception of guarantees issued under certain Brazilian government programs, primarily from 2006 and 2007, where terms are up to five years. In the event that the customers default on their payments to the third parties and Bunge would be required to perform under the guarantees, Bunge has obtained collateral from the customers. At June 30, 2011, Bunge had approximately $62 million of tangible property that had been pledged as collateral against certain of these refinancing arrangements. Bunge evaluates the likelihood of customer repayments of the amounts due under these guarantees based upon an expected loss analysis and records the fair value of such guarantees as an obligation in its condensed consolidated financial statements. Bunges recorded obligation related to these outstanding guarantees was $13 million at June 30, 2011.
(2) Bunge issued guarantees to certain financial institutions related to debt of certain of its unconsolidated joint ventures. The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the related financings which have maturity dates in 2012, 2016 and 2018. There are no recourse provisions or collateral that would enable Bunge to recover any amounts paid under these guarantees. At June 30, 2011, Bunges recorded obligation related to these guarantees was $18 million.
In addition, Bunge Limited has provided full and unconditional parent level guarantees of the indebtedness outstanding under certain senior credit facilities and senior notes entered into, or issued by, its 100% owned subsidiaries. At June 30, 2011, debt with a carrying amount of $4,157 million related to these guarantees is included in Bunges condensed consolidated balance sheets. This debt includes the senior notes issued by two of Bunges 100%-owned finance subsidiaries, Bunge Limited Finance Corp. and Bunge N.A. Finance L.P. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of Bunge Limited Finance Corp., Bunge N.A. Finance L.P. or any other Bunge subsidiary to transfer funds to Bunge Limited.
17. EQUITY
Share Repurchase Program On June 8, 2010, Bunge announced that its Board of Directors had approved a program for the repurchase of up to $700 million of Bunges issued and outstanding common shares. The program runs through December 31, 2011. Bunge repurchased 6,714,573 common shares for approximately $354 million through December 31, 2010. No common shares were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

19. TRANSFERS (TO) FROM NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
During the second quarter of 2011, Bunge entered into a joint venture in an agricultural commodity trading and merchandising company which operates in Central America. Bunge has a 70% controlling interest in the joint venture, which it consolidates. In the second quarter of 2011, the 30% noncontrolling interest holder made a $6 million capital contribution to this joint venture. Bunge made a proportionate capital contribution of $14 million, which resulted in no ownership change.
In the first quarter of 2011, Bunge sold a 10% interest in a consolidated subsidiary that owns and operates a newly constructed oilseed processing facility in Vietnam for $3 million to a third party. As a result of this transaction, Bunge has a 90% interest in this subsidiary.
Bunge has an 80% controlling interest in a sugarcane mill in Brazil, which it consolidates. In the first quarter of 2011, the 20% noncontrolling interest holder and Bunge each made proportionate capital contributions which resulted in no ownership percentage change. The contribution from the noncontrolling interest holder was $32 million.
Bunge has a 51% controlling interest in a joint venture that is developing a grain terminal in Longview, Washington, U.S., which it consolidates. In the first six months of 2011, Bunge and the noncontrolling interest holders, which have a 49% interest, made proportionate capital contributions to this joint venture, resulting in no ownership percentage change. The contribution from the noncontrolling interest holders was $12 million.
Effective January 1, 2010, Bunge adopted a FASB issued standard that amended the consolidation guidance applied to variable interest entities (VIEs). As a result of this adoption, Bunge consolidated AGRI-Bunge, LLC, an agribusiness joint venture which originates grains and operates a Mississippi River terminal in the United States in which Bunge has 50% voting power and a 34% interest in the equity and earnings. Bunge recorded $3 million of noncontrolling equity interest upon its consolidation of this joint venture in the first quarter of 2010.
On May 27, 2010, Bunge sold its Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets, including its direct and indirect 54% ownership interest in the voting common shares and 36% interest in the nonvoting preferred shares of Fosfertil (representing Bunges right to approximately 42% of the earnings of Fosfertil). See Note 4 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Prior to this date, Fosfertil was a consolidated subsidiary of Bunge. Effective as of the date of sale and as a result of this transaction, Bunge deconsolidated Fosfertil and derecognized $588 million of noncontrolling interests, which represented approximately 58% of noncontrolling interest in earnings of Fosfertil.
During 2010, there was a net redemption by certain third party investors in a private investment fund consolidated by Bunge. The net redeemed shares were valued at $9 million and represented approximately 30% of the outstanding shares of the fund along with $4 million of dividends representing their share of the cumulative earnings of the fund. This resulted in Bunges ownership interest in the fund increasing from 31% at December 31, 2009 to 39% at December 31, 2010. In addition in 2010, an inactive joint venture was liquidated which resulted in $2 million of capital returned to noncontrolling interests and dividends of $8 million were recorded, which represented earnings of a non-wholly owned subsidiary.
20. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to Bunge common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding any dilutive effects of stock options, restricted stock unit awards, convertible preference shares and convertible notes during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share, except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options, restricted stock unit awards and convertible securities and notes, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options, except those which are not dilutive, were exercised and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire common shares at the average market price during the reporting period. In addition, Bunge accounts for the effects of convertible securities and convertible notes, using the if-converted method. Under this method, the convertible securities and convertible notes are assumed to be converted and the related dividend or interest expense, net of tax, is added back to earnings, if dilutive.
At June 30, 2010, Bunge had 862,455 mandatory convertible preference shares outstanding with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. On the mandatory conversion date of December 1, 2010, Bunge used 6,714,573 repurchased common shares and issued an additional 1,702,642 common shares to satisfy the conversion of the mandatory convertible preference shares.
Bunge had 6,900,000 convertible perpetual preference shares outstanding at June 30, 2011. Each convertible preference share has an initial liquidation preference of $100 per share and each convertible preference share is convertible, at any time at the holders option, into approximately 1.0938 Bunge Limited common shares based on a conversion price of $91.4262 per convertible preference share (which represents 7,547,220 Bunge Limited common shares as of June 30, 2011, subject in each case to certain anti-dilution specified adjustments).

(1) Approximately 1 million and 2 million outstanding stock options and contingently issuable restricted stock units were not dilutive and not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Approximately 3 million outstanding stock options and contingently issuable restricted stock units were not dilutive and not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
21. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Bunge has five reportable segmentsagribusiness, sugar and bioenergy, edible oil products, milling products and fertilizer, which are organized based upon similar economic characteristics and are similar in nature of products and services offered, the nature of production processes, the type and class of customer and distribution methods. The agribusiness segment is characterized by both inputs and outputs being agricultural commodities and thus high volume and low margin. The sugar and bioenergy segment involves sugar origination, milling, trading and merchandising businesses, as well as sugar and sugarcane-based ethanol production and corn-based ethanol investments and activities. The edible oil products segment involves the manufacturing and marketing of products derived from vegetable oils. The milling products segment involves the manufacturing and marketing of products derived primarily from wheat and corn. Following the completion of the sale of Bunges Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in May 2010, the activities of the fertilizer segment include its fertilizer distribution business in Brazil as well as its operations in Argentina and the United States (see Note 4). Additionally, Bunge has retained its 50% interest in its fertilizer joint venture in Morocco.
The Unallocated column in the following table contains the reconciliation between the totals for reportable segments and Bunge consolidated totals, which consists primarily of corporate items not allocated to the operating segments, inter-segment eliminations. Transfers between the segments are generally valued at market. The revenues generated from these transfers are shown in the following table as Inter-segment revenues segments or inter-segment eliminations.

(1) Includes noncontrolling interest share of interest and tax to reconcile to consolidated noncontrolling interest.
(2) Total segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is an operating performance measure used by Bunges management to evaluate segment operating activities. Bunges management believes total segment EBIT is a useful measure of operating profitability, since the measure allows for an evaluation of the performance of its segments without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. In addition, EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunges industries.
(3) On May 27, 2010, Bunge closed on the sale of its Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets. As a result of this transaction, Bunge recorded a pre-tax gain on the sale of $2,440 million.
A reconciliation of total segment EBIT to net income attributable to Bunge follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Second Quarter 2011 Overview
You should refer to Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Factors Affecting Operating Results. in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a discussion of key factors affecting operating results in each of our business segments.
Segment Overview
Agribusiness Agribusiness segment results for the second quarter of 2011 improved significantly compared to the second quarter of 2010 as large harvests in South America were favorable to our grain origination and oilseed processing operations in Brazil and Argentina. Total agribusiness volumes were slightly improved over the same period last year but continue to be impacted by the lower grain supply resulting from the Eastern European drought in the last half of 2010. Compared with the same period last year, risk management performance was solid during a volatile period. The second quarter of 2010 included restructuring charges of $4 million primarily related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Sugar and Bioenergy Results in the second quarter of 2011 were improved over the second quarter of 2010. The second quarter is the weakest period for the Brazilian sugarcane industry as it is the beginning of the sugarcane harvest when the sugar content of the sugarcane is at its lowest. The impact of higher selling prices and volumes of both sugar and ethanol produced by our mills was partially offset by weaker margins and lower volumes in our sugar trading and merchandising business. In the second quarter of 2010, we recorded restructuring charges of $3 million primarily related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Edible oil products Edible oil products results for the second quarter of 2011 improved significantly when compared to the second quarter of 2010. Results in the second quarter of 2010 were reduced by $12 million of provisions related to expiring tax credits in Brazil and $5 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations. Improved results in the second quarter of 2011 were driven by strong margins in North America and Brazil resulting from improved pricing and a higher value product sales mix. These results were partially offset by lower margins in our edible oils and margarine businesses in Europe as customers, particularly in Eastern Europe, moved to cheaper brands and private label products. Aggressive competition also pressured selling prices in Europe.
Milling products Milling products segment results improved significantly when compared to the same period last year as both corn and wheat milling benefited from stronger margins. The second quarter of 2010 included restructuring charges of $3 million related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Fertilizer Results in our fertilizer segment were lower when compared to the second quarter of 2010 as the second quarter of 2010 included approximately two months of results from and a $2,440 million gain on the sale of our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets that were sold in May 2010. Volumes declined compared to the second quarter of 2010 as that quarter included volumes related to the Brazilian nutrients assets, including Fosfertil, which were sold in the second quarter of 2010. As a result of the sale of these assets in 2010, we are continuing to transition to a distribution business in Brazil. Results in the second quarter of 2011 benefited from improved risk management as well as strong margins resulting from good farm economics. Fertilizer results in Argentina for the second quarter of 2011 increased from the same period of last year with higher volumes and margins. The second quarter of 2011 included net charges of approximately $17 million related to inventory adjustments and bad debts in our Brazilian distribution business.

(1) Total segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is an operating performance measure used by Bunges management to evaluate segment operating activities. Bunges management believes total segment EBIT is a useful measure of operating profitability, since the measure allows for an evaluation of the performance of its segments without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. In addition, EBIT is a financial measure that is widely used by analysts and investors in Bunges industries. Total segment EBIT is not a measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other measure of consolidated operating results under U.S. GAAP.
A reconciliation of total segment EBIT to net income attributable to Bunge follows:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2010
Agribusiness Segment. Agribusiness segment net sales increased by 30% compared to the second quarter of 2010 due primarily to higher selling prices for major agricultural commodities, including corn and wheat. These increased prices were attributable to strong global demand for these commodities and related products combined with tight global supplies resulting from the severe drought in Eastern Europe in the second half of 2010. Volumes in the second quarter of 2011 were slightly higher when compared to the same period of 2010 as strong grain origination volumes primarily driven by strong farmer selling in North America were largely offset by weaker oilseed processing volumes, primarily in Europe.
Cost of goods sold increased 29% primarily due to the increase in average market prices for agricultural commodity raw materials. Cost of goods sold was also impacted by the effect of the stronger Brazilian real on the mark-to-market valuation of readily marketable commodity inventories in Brazil at market prices linked to the U.S. dollar. The Brazilian real appreciated during the second quarter of 2011, while it depreciated in the same period of 2010.
Gross profit increased 53% as a result of stronger oilseed processing margins, primarily in Brazil and Argentina when compared with the second quarter of 2010. Risk management strategies also performed well when compared with the second quarter of 2010, when our risk management strategies in oilseeds had anticipated more balanced supply and demand than that which was ultimately realized.
SG&A expenses had a slight decline of 4% when compared to the same period of 2010. The second quarter of 2010 included approximately $4 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations. The comparison between the 2011 second quarter and the same period last year is also impacted by the appreciation of the Brazilian real during the 2011 period compared to a depreciation of the real last year.
Foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2011 of $69 million compared to losses of $36 million in the second quarter of 2010 related primarily to the strengthening of global currencies relative to the U.S. dollar during the second quarter of 2011. The U.S. dollar strengthened against most global currencies during the second quarter of 2010. Foreign exchange gains and losses for both periods were substantially offset by mark-to-market adjustments on dollar-linked commodity inventories, which are included in cost of goods sold.
Equity in earnings of affiliates was $35 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $3 million in the same quarter of 2010 and was almost entirely related to a $37 million gain on the sale of our interest in a European oilseed processing facility joint venture.
Noncontrolling interest was $6 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $13 million in the second quarter of 2010 and represents the noncontrolling interest share of period income, primarily in our European operations.
Segment EBIT increased by $291 million to $319 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $28 million in the second quarter of 2010 due to higher gross profit. In addition, the gain in equity earnings in affiliates from the sale of our oilseed processing facility joint venture interest increased EBIT compared to the same period of last year.
Sugar and Bioenergy Segment. Sugar and Bioenergy segment net sales increased 47% when compared to the second quarter of 2010 primarily due to higher sugar and ethanol prices and the operation of all eight of our sugarcane mills, some of which were still in process of build/expansion in the same quarter of 2010. Volumes decreased 19% primarily as a result of weaker volumes in our sugar trading merchandising business.
Cost of goods sold increased 50% when compared to the second quarter of 2010 primarily due to higher cost of sugarcane, the sale of high cost inventories carried over from 2010 early in the quarter and the impact of the operation of all of our sugarcane mills during the second quarter of 2011.
Gross profit was $47 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $46 million in the second quarter of 2010. Increased volumes and stronger margins in our industrial business were largely offset by the impact of weaker margins and volumes in our trading and merchandising business during the quarter.
SG&A expenses increased to $44 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $36 million in the comparable period of 2010 primarily due to the completed expansion of our industrial operations. The second quarter of 2010 included approximately $3 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations. The weaker average U.S. dollar also resulted in increased expenses when translated into U.S. dollars.
Foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2011 were $12 million compared to losses of $2 million in the second quarter of 2010 and resulted primarily from the appreciation of the Brazilian real in the second quarter of 2011, compared to depreciation of the real in the same period of last year.
Equity in earnings of affiliates was zero in the second quarter of 2011 compared to losses of $3 million in the same quarter of 2010 due to improved results from our North American bioenergy investments.
Noncontrolling interest was zero in the second quarter of 2011 and $4 million in the same quarter of 2010 and represents the noncontrolling interest share of period loss from our non-wholly owned Brazilian sugarcane mills.
Segment EBIT increased by $14 million to $18 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $4 million in the second quarter of 2010 primarily driven by the factors described above.
Edible Oil Products Segment. Edible oil products segment net sales increased 39% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the second quarter of 2010, driven by higher average selling prices for edible oil products. Higher sales prices were partially offset by a volume decrease of 3% from the same period last year, primarily in Europe.
Cost of goods sold increased 40% primarily due to an increase in raw material costs relative to the same period last year resulting from higher commodity prices. This increase was partially offset by the slightly reduced volumes.
Gross profit increased 33% when compared to the second quarter of 2010 primarily due to improved pricing and a higher value product sales mix, particularly in North America and Brazil. These improvements in profitability in North and South America were partially offset by lower margins in Europe as aggressive competition, primarily in margarine, and the price-related movement of Eastern European customers to private label products and cheaper brands, reduced results in an environment of high prices.
SG&A expenses in the second quarter of 2011 decreased 14% when compared to the same period of 2010. The second quarter of 2010 included a provision of $12 million related to expiring tax credits in Brazil and restructuring costs of $4 million related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Foreign exchange results in the second quarter of 2011 were zero compared to losses of $2 million for the same period in 2010.
Noncontrolling interest in the second quarter of 2011 was zero compared to $1 million in the same quarter of 2010 representing the noncontrolling interest share of period income in our European operations.
Segment EBIT increased to $30 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to a loss of $13 million in the second quarter of 2010 primarily as a result of the 33% increase in gross profit and lower SG&A expenses.
Milling Products Segment. Milling products segment net sales increased 27% primarily due to higher average selling prices in both wheat and corn milling as pricing reflected increased global agricultural commodity prices during the second quarter of 2011. Volumes increased 3% driven primarily by increased volumes in wheat milling.
Cost of goods sold increased 24% primarily as a result of higher raw material costs and volumes when compared to the second quarter of 2010.
Gross profit increased by 59% compared with the second quarter of 2010 primarily due to higher average selling prices of wheat and corn milling products. Wheat milling benefited from input costs that were below current replacement values and corn milling benefited from improved production yields and good risk management.
SG&A expenses decreased by $4 million during the second quarter of 2011 when compared to the second quarter of 2010. The second quarter of 2010 included $3 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Segment EBIT increased by $21 million to $22 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $1 million in the second quarter of 2010 primarily as a result of significantly higher gross profit in both wheat and corn milling and lower SG&A expenses.
Fertilizer Segment. Fertilizer segment net sales increased 13% for the second quarter of 2011 when compared to the second quarter of 2010 primarily due to rising international fertilizer prices. Volumes decreased 30% compared to the same period last year due primarily to the sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in May 2010.
Cost of goods sold increased 8% primarily as a result of higher raw material costs compared to the second quarter of 2010 related to higher international fertilizer prices. The impact of higher prices was partially offset by
volume declines and by inventory adjustments recorded during the second quarter of 2011 as our fertilizer business in Brazil continues its transition to a distribution business. The second quarter of 2010 included the activities associated with our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets which were sold in the second quarter of 2010.
Gross profit improved to $18 million in the second quarter of 2011 from a loss of $11 million in the comparable period of 2010. The improvement in gross profit was primarily a result of improved margins and volumes in our Brazilian distribution operations partially offset by the inventory adjustments mentioned above. In addition, our fertilizer business in Argentina contributed increased gross profit compared to the second quarter of 2010.
SG&A decreased to $35 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $49 million in the comparable period of 2010 primarily as a result of the sale of the Brazilian nutrients assets in the second quarter of 2010.
Gain on sale of fertilizer nutrients assets was $2,440 million in the second quarter of 2010.
Foreign exchange losses were $4 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to losses of $9 million in the second quarter of 2010.
Equity in earnings of affiliates was income of $5 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $8 million in the second quarter of 2010 due to lower results in our Moroccan phosphate joint venture.
There was no noncontrolling interest in the second quarter of 2011. In 2010, noncontrolling interest was $8 million which represented the noncontrolling interest share of period income at Fosfertil. Our entire interest in Fosfertil was included in the Brazilian nutrients assets sale in the second quarter of 2010.
Segment EBIT declined to a loss of $16 million from a gain of $2,369 million in the same period of 2010, which included the gain of $2,440 million on the sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in May 2010.

Interest income was $23 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Interest expense decreased 31% when compared to the same period last year, as lower average borrowing costs more than offset higher working capital usage, primarily resulting from higher commodity prices.
Income Tax Expense. In the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we recorded income tax expense of $20 million compared to income tax expense of $542 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was 7%, compared to 23% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Included in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $539 million of income tax expense related to the gain on sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets.
Net Income Attributable to Bunge. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, net income attributable to Bunge was $316 million compared to net income of $1,778 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010. This decrease was primarily the result of the impact of the $1,901 after tax gain on sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in the second quarter of 2010.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Agribusiness Segment. Agribusiness segment net sales increased by 27% due to an increase in average selling prices for agricultural commodities attributable to strong global demand for these commodities and tight global supplies that were pressured by a severe drought in Eastern Europe in the second half of 2010. The impact of increased prices was partially offset by lower volumes in our grain origination and oilseed processing businesses when compared to the first six months of 2010. Volumes decreased 2% primarily as a result of reduced grain origination and crushing volumes, primarily in Europe, as a result of the lingering 2010 drought-related reductions and lower volumes in Argentina compared with a record crop that benefited volumes in 2010.
Cost of goods sold in the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 26% due primarily to higher average market prices for agricultural commodity raw materials and the unfavorable impact of the strengthening of global currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in the first half of 2011. The six months ended June 30, 2010 included impairment and restructuring costs of $15 million which were primarily related to the closure of an older, less efficient oilseed processing facility in the United States.
Gross profit increased 37% as a result of strong grain origination and oilseed processing margins and solid volumes in the first half of 2011 which benefited from a large South American harvest. Margins and volumes improved over the comparable period of 2010 which was impacted by slow farmer selling in South America.
SG&A expenses were $369 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $368 million for the same period of 2010. Approximately $4 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations were recorded during the second quarter of 2010.
Foreign exchange gains for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $103 million compared to losses of $77 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 related primarily to the volatility of many global currencies relative to the U.S. dollar during both periods. Foreign exchange gains in 2011 and losses in 2010 were partially offset by inventory mark-to-market adjustments, which are included in cost of goods sold.
Equity in earnings of affiliates increased to income of $35 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $7 million in the comparable period of 2010 due to a gain of $37 million on the sale of our interest in a European oilseed processing facility joint venture.
Noncontrolling interest of $12 million and $15 million, respectively in the first six months of 2011 and 2010 represents the noncontrolling interest share of period income, primarily in our European operations.
Segment EBIT increased by $422 million to $572 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $150 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 largely due to higher gross profit and foreign exchange gains which partially offset the negative impact of currency fluctuations on gross profit during the period.
Sugar and Bioenergy Segment. Sugar and Bioenergy segment net sales increased 25% when compared to the first six months of 2010 largely due to higher selling prices for sugar and ethanol as well as expansion of our sugar and ethanol production business in Brazil driven primarily by our 2010 acquisition of the Moema mills. Volumes decreased 19% primarily in our sugar trading and merchandising business. This decline was partially offset by expansion of our industrial activities.
Cost of goods sold increased 25% due to an increase in global sugar prices and the expansion of our industrial activities driven by the acquisition of the Moema mills. In addition, cost of goods sold for the first half of 2011 included approximately $20 million of counterparty valuation adjustments as certain millers that supply a portion of our sugar merchandising volumes were not able to meet commitments due to the 2010 drought. These increases were partially offset by lower volumes in our sugar trading and merchandising business.
Gross profit increased to $79 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $68 million in the comparable period of 2010 as a result of improved margins in our industrial business with very high demand for ethanol and sugar. These increases were partially offset by weaker margins, lower volumes and counterparty valuation adjustments in our trading and merchandising business.
SG&A expenses increased to $82 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $65 million in the comparable period of 2010 primarily due to the addition of the Moema mills, the expansion of our other industrial operations and the appreciation of the Brazilian real during 2011. SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included approximately $11 million of Moema acquisition-related expenses and $3 million of restructuring charges associated with the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Foreign exchange gains in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 resulted primarily from continued volatility of the Brazilian real.
Equity in earnings of affiliates was zero in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a loss of $2 million in the same period of 2010 and represents improved results of our North American bioenergy investments.
Noncontrolling interest of $(2) million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and $6 million in the comparable period of 2010 was the noncontrolling interest share of period (income) loss at our non-wholly owned Brazilian sugarcane mills.
Segment EBIT for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $11 million to $20 million from $9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to the expansion of our industrial activities in Brazil partially offset by weakness in our trading and merchandising business.
Edible Oil Products Segment. Edible oil products segment net sales increased 34% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily driven by higher selling prices for edible oil products which was partially offset by a 2% decline in volumes.
Cost of goods sold increased 34% primarily due to higher raw material costs, which was partially offset by lower volumes, primarily in Europe and Canada. In addition, cost of goods sold for the first six months of 2010 included restructuring charges of approximately $3 million associated with the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Gross profit increased 23% primarily due to stronger margins, primarily in North America and Brazil, resulting from improved pricing and a higher value product mix. These improvements were partially offset by lower margins in Europe related to aggressive competition and high market price-related movement of customers to private label products or cheaper brands.
SG&A expenses declined 9% when compared to the first six months of 2010 which included a provision of $12 million for expiring tax credits in Brazil and $2 million of restructuring charges related to the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Foreign exchange results for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were losses of $1 million and $4 million, respectively.
Noncontrolling interest of $4 million in both the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the comparable period of 2010 was the noncontrolling interest share of period income, primarily in our European operations.
Segment EBIT increased to $64 million from $5 million in the comparable period of 2010 as a result of higher gross profit and lower SG&A expenses.
Milling Products Segment. Milling products segment net sales increased 26% primarily due to higher average selling prices as global corn and wheat prices increased significantly compared to the same period of 2010.
Cost of goods sold increased 22% primarily due to the increase in raw material costs for both wheat and corn. These increases were partially offset by the impact of wheat inventories that were purchased prior to the rise in global wheat prices.
Gross profit increased by 63% for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the same period of 2010. Wheat milling margins benefited from higher selling prices of wheat milling products and lower cost wheat inventories acquired prior to the price increases. Corn milling gross profit benefited from strong milling production yields and good risk management.
SG&A expenses were $57 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $55 million in the comparable period of 2010. The six months ended June 30, 2010 included $3 million of restructuring charges associated with the consolidation of our Brazilian operations.
Segment EBIT increased $41 million to $55 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $14 million in the comparable period of 2010 primarily as a result of significant improvements in gross profit as discussed above.
Fertilizer Segment. Fertilizer segment net sales declined 9% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the comparable period of 2010 primarily due to the sale of our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets, including our interest in Fosfertil, in May 2010. Volumes declined 45% compared to volumes in the same period last year due primarily to the sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in the second quarter of 2010.
Cost of goods sold decreased 9% primarily as a result of lower volumes and costs compared to the first six months of 2010 which included activities associated with our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets. This was partially offset by high raw material costs.
Gross profit was $47 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $50 million in the comparable period of 2010 as a result of the factors described above.
SG&A decreased to $62 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $101 million in the comparable period of 2010 primarily as a result of the elimination of certain costs associated with the Brazilian nutrients assets, including Fosfertil, which we sold in the second quarter of 2010.
Gain on sale of fertilizer nutrients assets was $2,440 million in the six months ended December 31, 2010. The disposal of our Brazilian nutrients assets including our investments in Fosfertil and Fosbrasil, a phosphoric acid joint venture, was completed during the second quarter of 2010.
Foreign exchange losses of $6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased from losses of $25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily as a result of lower U.S. dollar monetary liability positions funding working capital during 2011 when compared to 2010.
Equity in earnings of affiliates for the six months ended June 30, 2011, was $4 million when compared to $3 million in the same period of 2010 due to improved results in our Moroccan phosphate joint venture.
Noncontrolling interest was zero in the six months ended June 30, 2011. In 2010 noncontrolling interest was $35 million which was the noncontrolling interest share of period income at Fosfertil. Our entire investment in Fosfertil was disposed of as part of the Brazilian nutrients assets sale in the second quarter of 2010.
Segment EBIT decreased to a loss of $21 million when compared to income of $2,329 million in the first six months of 2010. This decrease was primarily the result of the impact of the $2,440 million gain on sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients in the second quarter of 2010.

Interest income increased 5% primarily due to higher average interest bearing cash balances. Interest expense decreased 21% when compared to the same period last year as lower average borrowing costs more than offset higher working capital usage, primarily resulting from higher commodity prices.
Income Tax Expense. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded an income tax expense of $63 million compared to income tax expense of $551 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 11%, compared to 23% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Included in income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were approximately $21 million of discrete tax charges in the first quarter of 2011 related to certain non-deductible expenses and the provision of a valuation allowance for a subsidiary that management intends to liquidate as part of an internal reorganization. The significantly higher income tax expense and effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 results from the $2,440 million gain from the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets sale that occurred in May 2010.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Bunge. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net income attributable to Bunge was $548 million compared to $1,841 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, which included $1,901 million after tax gain on the sale of the Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets in May 2010.
Liquidity
Our primary financial objective is to maintain sufficient liquidity, balance sheet strength and financial flexibility in order to fund the requirements of our business efficiently. We generally finance our ongoing operations with cash flows generated from operations, issuance of commercial paper, borrowings under various revolving credit facilities and term loans, as well as proceeds from the issuance of senior notes. Acquisitions and long-lived assets are generally financed with a combination of equity and long-term debt.
Our current ratio, which is a widely used measure of liquidity, defined as current assets divided by current liabilities was 1.87 and 1.58 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents were $470 million at June 30, 2011 and $578 million at December 31, 2010. Cash balances are managed in accordance with our investment policy, the objectives of which are to preserve capital, maximize liquidity and provide appropriate returns. Under our policy, cash balances have been primarily invested in bank time deposits with highly-rated financial institutions and U.S. government securities.
Readily Marketable Inventories Readily marketable inventories are agricultural commodity inventories such as soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, corn, wheat and sugar that are readily convertible to cash because of their commodity characteristics, widely available markets and international pricing mechanisms. Readily marketable inventories in our agribusiness segment are reported at fair value and were $4,566 million and $4,540 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Readily marketable sugar inventories in our sugar and bioenergy segment were $100 million and $86 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Of these readily marketable sugar inventories, $62 million and $66 million were inventories carried at fair value at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, in our trading and merchandising business. Sugar inventories in our industrial production business are readily marketable, but are carried at lower of cost or market. Readily marketable inventories at fair value in the aggregate amount of $234 million and $225 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, were included in our edible oil products and milling products segment inventories.
We recorded interest expense on debt financing readily marketable inventories of $60 million and $33 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase reflects the significantly higher prices of agricultural commodities and commodity products in the first six months of 2011 compared with the same period of 2010.
Financing Arrangements and Outstanding Indebtedness We conduct most of our financing activities through a centralized financing structure that enables us and our subsidiaries to borrow more efficiently. This structure includes a master trust facility, the primary assets of which consist of intercompany loans made to Bunge Limited and its subsidiaries. Certain of Bunge Limiteds 100%-owned finance subsidiaries, Bunge Limited Finance Corp., Bunge Finance Europe B.V., and Bunge Asset Funding Corp., fund the master trust with long- and short-term debt obtained from third parties, including through our commercial paper program and certain credit facilities, as well as the issuance of senior notes. Borrowings by these finance subsidiaries carry full, unconditional guarantees by Bunge Limited.
Revolving Credit Facilities. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $3,325 million of aggregate committed borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program and revolving credit facilities, of which $2,875 million was unused and available. The following table summarizes these facilities as of the periods presented:

(1) Borrowings under the revolving credit facilities that have maturities greater than one year from the date of the consolidated balance sheets are classified as long-term debt, consistent with the long-term maturity of the underlying facilities. However, individual borrowings under the revolving credit facilities are generally short-term in nature, bear interest at variable rates and can be repaid or renewed as each such individual borrowing matures.
Our commercial paper program is supported by committed back-up bank credit lines (the liquidity facility) equal to the amount of the commercial paper program provided by lending institutions that are rated at least A-1 by Standard & Poors and P-1 by Moodys Investors Service. The liquidity facility, which matures in June 2012, permits Bunge, at its option, to set up direct borrowings or issue commercial paper in an aggregate amount of up to $575 million. The cost of borrowing under the liquidity facility would typically be higher than the cost of borrowing under our commercial paper program. No borrowings were outstanding under the commercial paper program at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
In March 2011, we entered into a syndicated, $1,750 million revolving credit agreement that matures on April 19, 2014. The credit agreement replaced the then existing $632 million, three-year and $600 million, 17-month revolving credit agreements scheduled to mature on April 16, 2011, which were terminated in accordance with their terms on March 23, 2011. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.75%, based generally on the credit ratings of our senior long-term unsecured debt. Amounts under the credit agreement that remain undrawn are subject to a commitment fee payable quarterly on the average undrawn portion of the credit agreement at 35 percent of the applicable margin. Facility financing fees of approximately $16 million were paid at inception of the credit agreement and are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the three-year term of the credit agreement. There was $450 million of borrowings outstanding under this credit agreement at June 30, 2011.
In addition to the committed facilities discussed above, from time to time, we enter into uncommitted short-term credit lines as necessary based on our liquidity requirements. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, $625 million and $1,075 million were outstanding under these uncommitted short-term credit lines.
Short- and Long-Term Debt. Our short- and long-term debt increased by $143 million at June 30, 2011 from December 31, 2010, primarily due to higher working capital levels.
Generally, our borrowings increase in times of rising commodity prices as we borrow to acquire inventory and fund margin calls on our short futures positions hedging physical inventories. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our average short- and long-term debt outstanding was $5,079 million, primarily due to rising commodity prices. The outstanding debt balance was $5,024 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $4,881 million at December 31, 2010. The following table summarizes our short-term debt activity at June 30, 2011:

In March 2011, we completed the sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior guaranteed notes, bearing interest at 4.10% per annum and maturing on March 15, 2016. The senior notes were issued by our 100%-owned finance subsidiary, Bunge Limited Finance Corp., and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Bunge Limited. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year, commencing in September 2011. The net proceeds from this offering of approximately $496 million after deducting underwriters commissions and offering expenses were used for general corporate purposes, including working capital. Debt issuance costs of approximately $4 million were paid in conjunction with the issuance of the senior notes and will be amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the senior notes.
We have $475 million of term loans and a 10 billion Japanese Yen term loan maturing in August and October 2011, respectively. We expect to have adequate liquidity to repay these amounts at maturity.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. In April 2011, we repaid $47 million of subsidiary debt.

Our debt agreements do not have any credit rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of our debt. However, credit rating downgrades would increase our borrowing costs under our credit facilities and, depending on their severity, could impede our ability to obtain credit facilities or access the capital markets in the future on favorable terms. We may also be required to post collateral or provide third-party credit support under certain agreements as a result of such downgrades. A significant increase in our borrowing costs could impair our ability to compete effectively in our business relative to competitors with higher credit ratings.
Our credit facilities and certain senior notes require us to comply with specified financial covenants, including minimum net worth, minimum current ratio, a maximum debt to capitalization ratio and limitations on secured indebtedness. We were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2011.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements. We use interest rate swaps as hedging instruments and record the swaps at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded contemporaneously in earnings. Additionally, the carrying amount of the associated debt is adjusted through earnings for changes in the fair value due to changes in benchmark interest rates. Ineffectiveness, as defined in a FASB issued standard, is recognized to the extent that these two adjustments do not offset.
In March 2011, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional principal amount of $500 million for the purpose of managing our interest rate exposure related to our $500 million, fixed-rate 4.10% Senior Notes maturing in 2016. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, we make payments based on six-month LIBOR and receive payments based on a fixed rate.
We have accounted for these interest rate swaps as fair value hedges in accordance with a FASB issued standard. The following table summarizes the fair value of our outstanding interest rate swap agreements as of June 30, 2011.

In addition, we have cross-currency interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional principal amount of 10 billion Japanese Yen maturing in 2011 for the purpose of managing our currency exposure associated with our 10 billion Japanese Yen term loan due in October 2011. Under the terms of the cross-currency interest rate swap agreements, we make U.S. dollar payments based on three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR and receive payments based on three-month Yen LIBOR. We have accounted for these cross-currency interest rate swap agreements as fair value hedges. At June 30, 2011, the fair value of the cross-currency interest rate swap agreements was a gain of $23 million.

Total Bunge shareholders equity increased to $13,359 million at June 30, 2011 from $12,220 million at December 31, 2010. The increase in shareholders equity was due primarily to net income attributable to Bunge for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $548 million and foreign currency translation gains of $640 million. The increase was partially offset by declared dividends to common and preferred shareholders of $71 million and $17 million, respectively.
Noncontrolling interest increased to $392 million at June 30, 2011 from $334 million at December 31, 2010 due primarily to capital contributions totalling $53 million by noncontrolling interest holders. Of these contributions from noncontrolling interest holders, $39 million were related to joint venture operations that have been in process of construction or expansion and Bunge made proportionate contributions, resulting in no changes in ownership percentages related to these entities. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, we sold a 10% interest in a consolidated subsidiary that owns and operates a newly constructed oilseed processing facility in Vietnam for $3 million to a third-party. Our ownership in this subsidiary was reduced from 100% to 90%. We also formed a trading and merchandising joint venture company which we consolidate, to expand our market share in Central America. The noncontrolling interest holder contributed $6 million for a 30% interest in the trading company.
As of June 30, 2011, we had 6,900,000 4.875% cumulative convertible perpetual preference shares outstanding with an aggregate liquidation preference of $690 million. Each convertible perpetual preference share has an initial liquidation preference of $100, which will be adjusted for any accumulated and unpaid dividends. The convertible perpetual preference shares carry an annual dividend of $4.875 per share payable quarterly. As a result of adjustments made to the initial conversion price because cash dividends paid on Bunge Limiteds common shares exceeded certain specified thresholds, each convertible perpetual preference share is convertible, at the holders option, at any time into 1.0938 Bunge Limited common shares, based on the conversion price of $91.4262 per share, subject to certain additional anti-dilution adjustments. At any time on or after December 1, 2011, if the closing price of our common shares equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price for 20 trading days during any consecutive 30 trading days (including the last trading day of such period), we may elect to cause the convertible perpetual preference shares to be automatically converted into Bunge Limited common shares at the then prevailing conversion price. The convertible preference shares are not redeemable by us at any time.
Cash Flows
Our cash flow from operations varies depending on, among other items, the market prices and timing of the purchase and sale of our inventories. Generally, during periods when commodity prices are rising, our agribusiness operations require increased use of cash to support working capital to acquire inventories and daily settlement requirements on exchange traded futures that we use to minimize price risk related to our inventories.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $108 million, reflecting the net effect of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities compared to an increase of $2,218 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, which includes the net proceeds of $3,469 million from our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets sale.
Our operating activities generated cash of $264 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to cash used of $159 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The positive cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was principally due to net income, partially offset by increased working capital requirements. Also impacting operating cash flows in the first six months of 2011 were approximately $401 million of net proceeds from initial sales of accounts receivable under our new global accounts receivable sale program that we entered into in June. In addition, we repaid approximately $500 million of trade accounts payable related to fertilizer imports as we can more efficiently fund fertilizer imports through internal sources. The negative cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was primarily due to $275 million of withholding taxes and $142 million of transaction closing costs paid related to the sale of our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets.
Short-term borrowing needs of our operating subsidiaries are primarily funded with U.S. dollar-denominated debt. The functional currency of our operating subsidiaries is generally the local currency and the financial statements are calculated in the functional currency and translated into U.S. dollars. These U.S. dollar-denominated loans are remeasured into their respective functional currencies at exchange rates at the applicable
balance sheet date. The resulting gain or loss is included in our condensed consolidated statements of income as a foreign exchange gain or loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, we recognized gains of $78 million and losses of $225 million, respectively, on debt denominated in U.S. dollars at our subsidiaries, which were included as adjustments to reconcile net income to cash used for operating activities in the line item Foreign exchange loss (gain) on debt in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This adjustment is required because the cash flow impacts of these gains or losses are recognized as financing activities when the subsidiary repays the underlying U.S. dollar-denominated debt and therefore have no impact on cash flows from operations.
Cash used for investing activities was $440 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to cash generated of $3,122 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting the proceeds from the sale of our Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets. During the first six months of 2011, we acquired a port terminal in Ukraine for a total purchase price of approximately $100 million (net of $2 million cash acquired), consisting of approximately $83 million in cash, and approximately $17 million of short-term debt and other payables related to assets under construction. In addition, we formed a joint venture to purchase a fertilizer storage terminal in the U.S. for $8 million and a joint venture to construct a grain elevator in the U.S. for $3 million. In Russia, we received net proceeds of $16 million from the sale of a cost-method investment. We also sold our investment in a European oilseed processing facility joint venture for cash proceeds of $54 million. Payments made for capital expenditures of $454 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily included investments in property, plant and equipment related to expanding our sugar business in Brazil, investments in our port facility in Washington state in the U.S. and construction of oilseed processing facilities in Vietnam and China. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we paid $80 million to acquire the fertilizer division of Petrobras Argentina S.A., $48 million (net of $3 million of cash acquired) in connection with the Moema acquisition and $5 million representing a purchase price adjustment for the working capital true-up for our 2009 Raisio acquisition in Poland.
Cash generated from financing activities was $58 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to cash used of $701 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we had a net increase of $99 million in borrowings due to increased working capital requirements. In the six months ended June 30, 2010, we had a net decrease in borrowings of $540 million (excluding $555 million of debt assumed in the Moema acquisition which was reflected in the opening balance sheet of the acquisition, and including $462 million of Moema debt repaid following completion of the acquisition). Dividends paid to our common shareholders in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010 were $68 million and $60 million, respectively. Dividends paid to holders of our convertible preference shares in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, were $17 and $39 million, respectively.

(1) We have issued guarantees to third parties in Brazil related to amounts owed to these third parties by certain of our customers. The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the related financing arrangements, which are generally one year or less, with the exception of guarantees issued under certain Brazilian government programs, primarily from 2006 and 2007, where terms are up to five years. In the event that the customers default on their payments to the third parties and we would be required to perform under the guarantees, we have obtained collateral from the customers. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $62 million of tangible property that had been pledged as collateral against certain of these refinancing arrangements. We evaluate the likelihood of customer repayments of the amounts due under these guarantees based upon an expected loss analysis and record the fair value of such guarantees as an obligation in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Bunges recorded obligation related to these outstanding guarantees was $13 million at June 30, 2011.
(2) We issued guarantees to certain financial institutions related to debt of certain of our unconsolidated joint ventures. The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the related financings which have maturity dates in 2012, 2016 and 2018. There are no recourse provisions or collateral that would enable us to recover any amounts paid under these guarantees. At June 30, 2011, Bunges recorded obligation related to these guarantees was $18 million.
In addition, Bunge Limited has provided full and unconditional parent level guarantees of the indebtedness outstanding under certain senior credit facilities and senior notes entered into, or issued by, its 100% owned subsidiaries. At June 30, 2011, debt with a carrying amount of $4,157 million related to these guarantees is included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. This debt includes the senior notes issued by two of our 100% owned finance subsidiaries, Bunge Limited Finance Corp. and Bunge N.A. Finance L.P. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of Bunge Limited Finance Corp., Bunge N.A. Finance L.P. or any other of our subsidiaries to transfer funds to Bunge Limited.
Trade Receivables Securitization Programs In January 2010, we adopted a FASB issued standard that resulted in amounts outstanding under our then existing securitization programs being accounted for as secured borrowings and reflected as short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet. As a result of this change, we significantly reduced our utilization of these programs and either terminated or allowed them to expire.
In June 2011, we entered into a new global trade receivable securitization program (the Program) with a five year term subject to annual renewals in order to provide an additional source of liquidity for our operations. Sales under the Program qualify for sale accounting under the updated accounting standards related to transfers of financial assets. The maximum principal amount of sold receivables outstanding under the Program is $700 million. Under the Program, qualifying Bunge subsidiaries sell eligible trade accounts receivable in their entirety on a revolving basis to a consolidated bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary. These trade accounts receivable are then sold without recourse to commercial paper conduits (the Purchasers). In connection with these sales of accounts receivable, Bunge receives a portion of the proceeds up front and the remaining amount upon the collection of the underlying receivables (a deferred purchase price), which is expected to be generally 10 to 15 percent of the receivables sold through the Program. Bunge is obligated to repurchase any receivables that were not eligible as originally represented when sold and to fund short-falls in collections for certain non-credit related reasons after the sale. Apart from these obligations, Bunge has no retained interests in the transferred receivables, other than collection and administrative responsibilities and a right to the deferred purchase price receivable. At June 30, 2011, $520 million of accounts receivable sold under the program and outstanding as of that date were derecognized from our condensed consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2011, the related deferred purchase price of $119 million was recorded in other current assets. Additional details of the Program are disclosed in Note 12 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Brazilian Farmer Credit
Background We advance funds to farmers, primarily in Brazil, through secured advances to suppliers and prepaid commodity purchase contracts. We also sell fertilizer to farmers, primarily in Brazil, on credit as described below. All of these activities are generally intended to be short-term in nature. The ability of our customers and suppliers to repay these amounts is affected by agricultural economic conditions in the relevant geography, which are, in turn, affected by commodity prices, currency exchange rates, crop input costs and crop quality and yields. As a result, these arrangements are typically secured by the farmers crop and, in many cases, the farmers land and other assets. On occasion, Brazilian farm economics in certain regions and certain years, particularly 2005 and 2006, have been adversely affected by factors including volatility in soybean prices, a steadily appreciating Brazilian real and poor crop quality and yields. As a result, certain farmers have defaulted on amounts owed. While Brazilian farm economics have improved, some Brazilian farmers continue to face economic challenges due to high debt levels and a strong Brazilian real. Upon farmer default, we generally initiate legal proceedings to recover the defaulted amounts. However, the legal recovery process through the judicial system is a long-term process, generally spanning a number of years. As a result, once accounts have been submitted to the judicial process for recovery, we may also seek to renegotiate certain terms with the defaulting farmer in order to accelerate recovery of amounts owed. In addition, we have tightened our credit policies to reduce exposure to higher risk accounts, and have increased collateral requirements for certain customers.
Because Brazilian farmer credit exposures are denominated in local currency, reported values are impacted by movements in the value of the Brazilian real when translated into U.S. dollars. From December 31, 2010 to June 30, 2011, the Brazilian real appreciated by approximately 7%, increasing the reported farmer credit exposure balances when translated into U.S. dollars.
Brazilian Fertilizer Trade Accounts Receivable In our Brazilian fertilizer operations, customer accounts receivable are intended to be short-term in nature, and are expected to be repaid either in cash or through delivery to Bunge of agricultural commodities when the related crop is harvested. As the farmers cash flow is seasonal and is typically generated after the crop is harvested, the actual due dates of the accounts receivable are individually determined based upon when a farmer purchases our fertilizer and the anticipated date for the harvest and sale of the farmers crop. These receivables may also be secured by the farmers crop. We initiate legal proceedings against customers to collect amounts owed which are in default. In some cases, we have renegotiated amounts that were in legal proceedings, including to secure the subsequent years crop.
We periodically evaluate the collectability of our trade accounts receivable and record allowances if we determine that collection is doubtful. We base our determination of the allowance on analyses of credit quality of individual accounts, considering also the economic and financial condition of the farming industry and other market conditions as well as the value of any collateral related to amounts owed. We continuously review defaulted farmer receivables for impairment on an individual account basis. We consider all accounts in legal collections processes to be defaulted and past due. For such accounts, we determine the allowance for uncollectible amounts based on the fair value of the associated collateral, net of estimated costs to sell. For all renegotiated accounts (current and past due), we consider changes in farm economic conditions and other market conditions, our historical experience related to renegotiated accounts and the fair value of collateral in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts.
In addition to our fertilizer trade accounts receivable, we issue guarantees to third parties in Brazil relating to amounts owed to these third parties by certain of our customers. These guarantees are discussed under the heading Guarantees.
The table below details our Brazilian fertilizer trade accounts receivable balances and the related allowances for doubtful accounts.

Secured Advances to Suppliers and Prepaid Commodity Contracts We purchase soybeans through prepaid commodity purchase contracts (advance cash payments to suppliers against contractual obligations to deliver specified quantities of soybeans in the future) and secured advances to suppliers (advances to suppliers against commitments to deliver soybeans in the future), primarily in Brazil. These financing arrangements are typically secured by the farmers future crop and mortgages on the farmers land, buildings and equipment, and are generally settled after the farmers crop is harvested and sold.
Interest earned on secured advances to suppliers of $5 million and $6 million, and $12 million and $15 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is included in net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are defined as those policies that are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management to exercise significant judgment. For a complete discussion of our accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There were no material changes to Bunges critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Inventories Readily marketable inventories consist of agricultural commodity inventories such as soybeans, soybean meal, soybean oil, corn, wheat and sugar that are readily convertible to cash because of their commodity characteristics, widely available markets and international pricing mechanisms. Merchandisable agricultural commodities of our agribusiness, sugar and bioenergy, edible oil products and milling businesses that are freely traded, have quoted market prices, may be sold without significant further processing and have predictable and insignificant disposal costs are generally stated at fair value with the exception of sugar inventories in our industrial production business in Brazil which are carried at lower of cost or market. Changes in the fair values of inventories carried at fair value are recognized in earnings as a component of cost of goods sold.
Inventories other than readily marketable inventories are principally stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using primarily the weighted-average cost method.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Receivables, Disclosures about the Credit of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses In July 2010, the FASB issued a standard that amended a previously issued standard requiring an entity to include additional disaggregated disclosures in their financial statements about their financing receivables, including credit risk disclosures and the allowance for credit losses. Entities with financing receivables are required to disclose a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses, certain credit quality information, impaired loan information, modification information, and past due information. Trade receivables with maturities of less than one year are excluded from the scope of the new disclosures. Bunge has adopted this disclosure as of December 31, 2010. As a result of the adoption of this standard, we have expanded our disclosures (see Note 12 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results from operations or cash flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments in this Update are intended to result in convergence between U.S. GAAP and IFRS requirements for measurement of, and disclosures about, fair value. ASU 2011-04 clarifies or changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Bunge is evaluating the impact this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. The guidance allows two presentation alternatives: (1) present items of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income; or (2) in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. This standard is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, but full retrospective application is required under both sets of accounting standards. Bunge is evaluating the impact this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Risk Management
As a result of our global operating and financing activities, we are exposed to changes in, among other things, agricultural commodity prices, transportation costs, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and energy costs which may affect our results of operations and financial position. We actively monitor and manage these various market risks associated with our business activities. Our risk management discussions take place in various locations but exposure limits are centrally set and monitored. We have a corporate risk management group, headed by our chief risk officer, which analyzes and monitors our risk exposures globally. Additionally, our board of directors finance and risk policy committee supervises, reviews and periodically revises our overall risk management policies and limits.
We use derivative instruments for the purpose of managing the exposures associated with commodity prices, transportation costs, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and energy costs and for positioning our overall portfolio relative to expected market movements in accordance with established policies and procedures. We enter into derivative instruments primarily with major financial institutions, commodity exchanges in the case of commodity futures and options, or shipping companies in the case of ocean freight. While these derivative instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, for hedged exposures those fluctuations are generally offset by the changes in fair value of the underlying exposures. The derivative instruments that we use for hedging purposes are intended to reduce the volatility on our results of operations, however, they can occasionally result in earnings volatility, which may be material. See Note 11 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed discussion of the derivative instruments that we use.
Credit and Counterparty Risk
Through our normal business activities, we are subject to significant credit and counterparty risks that arise through normal commercial sales and purchases, including forward commitments to buy or sell, and through various other over-the-counter (OTC) derivative instruments that we utilize to manage risks inherent in our business activities. We define credit and counterparty risk as a potential financial loss due to the failure of a counterparty to honor its obligations. The exposure is measured based upon several factors, including unpaid accounts receivable from counterparties and unrealized gains from OTC derivative instruments (including forward purchase and sale contracts). We actively monitor credit and counterparty risk through credit analysis by local credit staffs and review by various local and corporate committees which monitor counterparty performance. We record provisions for counterparty losses from time to time as a result of our credit and counterparty analysis.
During periods of tight conditions in global credit markets, downturns in regional or global economic conditions, and/or significant price volatility, credit and counterparty risks are heightened. This increased risk is monitored through, among other things, increased communication with key counterparties, management reviews and specific focus on counterparties or groups of counterparties that we may determine as high risk. In addition, we have limited new credit extensions in certain cases and reduced our use of non-exchange-cleared derivative instruments.
Commodities Risk
We operate in many areas of the food industry, from agricultural raw materials to the production and sale of branded food ingredients. As a result, we purchase and produce various materials, many of which are agricultural commodities, including soybeans, soybean oil, soybean meal, softseeds (including sunflower seed, rapeseed and
canola) and related oil and meal derived from them, wheat and corn. In addition, we grow and purchase sugarcane to produce sugar, ethanol and electricity. Agricultural commodities are subject to price fluctuations due to a number of unpredictable factors that may create price risk. As described above, we are also subject to the risk of counterparty non-performance under forward purchase or sale contracts. From time-to-time we have experienced instances of counterparty non-performance, including as a result of counterparty profitability under these contracts due to significant movements in commodity prices between the time in which the contracts were executed and the contractual forward delivery period.
We enter into various derivative contracts with the primary objective of managing our exposure to adverse price movements in the agricultural commodities used for and produced in our business operations. We have established policies that limit the amount of unhedged fixed price agricultural commodity positions permissible for our operating companies, which are generally a combination of volume and value-at-risk (VaR) limits. We measure and review our net commodities position on a daily basis.
Our daily net agricultural commodity position consists of inventory, forward purchase and sale contracts, over-the-counter and exchange traded derivative instruments, including those used to hedge portions of our production requirements. The fair value of that position is a summation of the fair values calculated for each agricultural commodity by valuing all of our commodity positions at quoted market prices for the period where available or utilizing a close proxy. VaR is calculated on the net position and monitored at the 95% and 99% confidence intervals. In addition, scenario analysis and stress testing are performed. For example, one measure of market risk is estimated as the potential loss in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in prices. The results of this analysis, which may differ from actual results, are as follows:

Ocean Freight Risk
Ocean freight represents a significant portion of our operating costs. The market price for ocean freight varies depending on the supply and demand for ocean vessels, global economic conditions and other factors. We enter into time charter agreements for time on ocean freight vessels based on forecasted requirements for the purpose of transporting agricultural commodities. Our time charter agreements generally have terms ranging from two months to approximately three years. We use financial derivatives, known as freight forward agreements, to hedge portions of our ocean freight costs. The ocean freight derivatives are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
Energy Risk
We purchase various energy commodities such as bunker fuel, electricity and natural gas that are used to operate our manufacturing facilities and ocean freight vessels. The energy commodities are subject to price risk. We use financial derivatives, including exchange traded and OTC swaps and options for various purposes, including to manage our exposure to volatility in energy costs. These energy derivatives are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value.
Currency Risk
Our global operations require active participation in foreign exchange markets. Our primary foreign currency exposures are the Brazilian real, the Euro and other European currencies, the Argentine peso and the Chinese yuan/renminbi. To reduce the risk arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations we enter into derivative instruments, such as forward contracts and swaps, and foreign currency options. The changes in market value of such contracts have a high correlation to the price changes in the related currency exposures. The potential loss in fair value for such net currency position resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates as of June 30, 2011 was not material.
When determining our exposure, we exclude intercompany loans that are deemed to be permanently invested. The repayments of permanently invested intercompany loans are not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future and therefore are treated as analogous to equity for accounting purposes. As a result, the foreign exchange gains and losses on these borrowings are excluded from the determination of net income and recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Included in other comprehensive income (loss) are foreign exchange gains of $298 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and gains of $195 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, related to permanently invested intercompany loans.
Interest Rate Risk
We have debt in fixed and floating rate instruments. We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates. We enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate exposure related to our debt portfolio.
The aggregate fair value of our short and long-term debt, based on market yields at June 30, 2011, was $5,315 million with a carrying value of $5,024 million. There was no significant change in our interest risk at June 30, 2011.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of June 30, 2011 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Following the sale of Bunges Brazilian fertilizer nutrients assets and in connection with the restructuring of Bunges activities in Brazil and related local management changes, management is reviewing and, in some cases, implementing new systems and procedures that have led, or are expected to lead, to changes in internal control over financial reporting in Bunges Brazilian operations.
Except as described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
INFORMATION
The Argentine tax authorities have been conducting a review of income and other taxes paid by large exporters and processors of cereals and other agricultural commodities in the country. In that regard, in October 2010, the Argentine tax authorities carried out inspections at several of our locations in Argentina relating to allegations of income tax evasion covering the periods from 2007 to 2009. More recently, in July 2011, we received a preliminary income tax audit report from the Argentine tax authorities relating to fiscal years 2006 and 2007 with an estimated claim of approximately $100 million. Additionally, in April 2011, the Argentine tax authorities conducted inspections of our locations and those of several other grain exporters with respect to allegations of evasion of liability for value added taxes. While we believe that the allegations and claims against us are without merit, these matters are at a preliminary stage and therefore, we are, at this time, unable to predict their outcome.
From time-to-time, we are involved in litigation that we consider to be ordinary and incidental to our business. While the outcome of pending legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the outcome of
these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
