Sources: Bloomberg, Company reports, and Santander estimates. Investment Thesis: In this report, we are lowering our estimates for 2008, on the back of the weak 3Q08 results, the impact of FX and derivatives losses in We are also lowering our 2009 estimates, factoring in a weaker economic outlook. We now estimate that Alfa can still post EBITDA growth of 5% in 2008 in U.S. dollar terms and a meager 2% growth in 2009, returning to a more attractive 8% in We must underscore that while the growth in 2008 is likely to be driven by 1H08 results, the expected growth in 2009 should be driven by an expected improvement in results during the second half of the year, as we expect a lackluster first half. Therefore, we would not expect catalysts for the stock in the medium term, making it a story for the second half of 2009 in our view. Although we are lowering our estimates, we are maintaining our Buy rating. We are introducing our YE2009 target price of US$3.20 (M$38.60) implying upside potential of 70%. Our target price implies an appreciation of the FV/EBITDA multiple of 21% from current levels, which are similar to 2001 levels, when the company was facing a critical debt restructuring. The short-term outlook for industrial companies is very challenging, but we believe that Alfa has viable operations and a solid market position in each of them (Alpek, Nemak and Sigma). Therefore in our view, the current low valuation levels are not sustainable in the long term. Reasons for Change to Estimates: We are lowering our estimates to account for weaker-than-expected results in 3Q08, coupled with the negative effects of FX and derivative losses. We are also factoring in lower economic growth expected in Valuation: Our year-end 2009 target price is based on an FV/EBITDA methodology, which implies that the stock would be trading at a trailing 4.3 times 2009 FV/EBITDA multiple and at a 3.8 times forward multiple. We also used a DCF and NAV model as a cross reference. Main risks include: (1) weaker-than-expected economic growth; (2) exposure to the U.S: economy; (3) lower profitability in Alpek, Nemak, and Sigma; (4) strength of the Mexican peso; (5) capacity increases by petrochemical competitors; and (6) higher cost of financing due to current market conditions. * Employed by a non-us affiliate of Santander Investment Securities Inc. and is not registered/qualified as a research analyst under FINRA rules.
2 Factoring in a Weaker Outlook and Introducing Year-end 2009 Target Price Alfa is a Mexican conglomerate with exposure to the petrochemical sector (via Alpek 42% of sales), aluminum casting (auto parts) via Nemak (32% of sales), consumer products (through Sigma), with 20% of sales and telecommunications, via Alestra (5% of sales). Alfa is the second largest producer of PTA (purified terephthalic acid) in NAFTA, the sole producer of PP (polypropylene) in Mexico and the largest manufacturer of aluminum engine heads and blocks worldwide. In addition, it is a market leader in cold cuts and cheese in Mexico and the second largest player in the domestic yogurt market. 3Q08 DELIVERS NEGATIVE NEWS... On October 21, the company disclosed weaker-than-expected third-quarter results. Due to these poor results, the company will not reach our 2008 estimates; therefore, we are revisiting our outlook. Sales grew 11% YoY in 3Q08 and were in line with our estimate, but operating results were very weak, with EBITDA of US$253 million, basically flat YoY and 7% below our estimate. Highlights by division. Negatives: Alpek-Petrochemical (45% of sales) posted EBITDA of - 6% QoQ (flat YoY), as clients delayed purchases of PET anticipating lower prices, but also lower volume of PTA as a result of a shortage of raw materials due to Hurricane Ike. Nemak- Aluminum Casting (26% of sales), volume of 7.3 million equivalent heads declined 17% YoY and EBITDA declined 7% YoY. Alfa s operating margin of 4.9% in 3Q08 was the weakest in almost 15 years. Postives: Sigma s (23% of sales) EBITDA grew 22% YoY, driven by 9% volume growth and some recovery in prices. Nemak, despite lower volume, synergies allowed the company to post EBITDA/ head of US$9.60 (during the year, the average has been close to US$10 per head, which is similar to 2008 levels despite the economic slowdown). Net income was affected by FX and derivative losses of US$190 million, of which US$60 million was cash. As of September, the company had a net debt of US$1.9 billion and cash of US$910 million.

3 CONFERENCE CALL HIGHLIGHTS Alpek. Prices are declining, driven by reductions in oil and raw materials. However, cash margins are being maintained. Short-term demand could experience some weakness. Some of the problems that affected 3Q08 results, such as the disruption of supply and clients delaying purchases, are returning to normal. As a result of the PP (polypropylene) plant s capacity expansion (+180% to 670 ktpy), it is expected to be operating at 66% of its installed capacity by mid Nemak. Nafta volumes declined 10% on a pro forma basis, while volume in South America grew 17% and in Europe it remained flat YoY. We could expect some pressure in profitability in the short term due to decreasing volume. Alfa. Capex as of September was US$369 million and will not reach the US$570 million as planned. The cash impact of derivatives was US$60 million in 3Q08 and is forecast to be close to US$300 million in 4Q08. The company just secured credit lines with banks for US$225 million. LOWERING OUR ESTIMATES The main driver for the adjustment in our operating estimates is the weaker margin and volumes in Alpek and Nemak, coupled with a very challenging outlook for the global economy in We are also factoring in the effect of FX/derivative losses. In our estimates, we are factoring in our updated economic estimates (Figure 8). We present our estimate revisions in the table below, underscoring that we are also introducing our 2010 estimates.

Sources: Company reports and Santander estimates. In Figure 4 we summarize our estimates by division. Overall, we expect a very tough 2009, with most of the expected meager growth coming from volume improvement in Alpek in 2H09, driven by the higher utilization rate of the PP plant s capacity expansion.

VALUATION We are setting our YE2009 target price for Alfa at M$38.60 or US$3.20 per share, replacing our year-end 2008 target price of US$8.20. This is based on an FV/EBITDA methodology, implying that the stock would be trading at 4.3 times trailing 2009 FV/EBITDA and at a 3.8 times forward multiple. As discussed below, these valuation levels are similar to those in the 1999 to 2001 period, when the company was handling a critical debt-restructuring program, triggered by the distressed operating results in Hylsamex. In our view, Alfa s operations and balance sheet structure are by no means comparable to that period. However, given the current economic conditions and limited growth perspectives, we believe it is fair to assume that these valuations will be reached. We are also updating our DCF model, but given the uncertain economic outlook, we only used it as a cross reference, which yields a higher price than our FV/EBITDA-multiple-driven prices. FORWARD FV/EBITDA Alfa currently trades at 3.5 times our 2009 FV/EBITDA estimates and 3.1 times our 2010 estimate. In the current economic environment, we believe that the last five-year valuation average is meaningless. Therefore, we reviewed the company s average valuation level from 1999 to 2001, when the company was trading at distressed levels due to its leveraged financial structure and Hylsamex s very poor results (a steel division that represented 30% of sales). During that period, Alfa s stock traded at an average forward FV/EBITDA multiple of 5.4 times, at a low of 3.6 times and at a peak of 6.8 times. Considering the very difficult economic environment, but recognizing that the company has a relatively solid financial structure (with net debt/ebitda below 2.0 times) and, in our opinion, a solid business long-term position, we believe it is feasible and conservative that by YE2009, the stock could be trading between the first and second negative standard deviations relative to the aforementioned period. 4

DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW MODEL We are updating our DCF model as a cross reference for our FV/EBITDA-driven target price. Our model considers a risk-free rate of 8.1% and a market premium of 5.5%. We used a beta of 0.90 versus the IPC index and maintained the debt-to-total-capitalization ratio at 46%. With these figures, we calculated a cost of equity of 13.05% and an after-tax cost of debt of 5.8%, arriving at a WACC of 9.71%. We are using a growth rate in perpetuity of 1.5% per year. Figure 6 includes highlights of our DCF model, which yields a fair value price of US$3.88 or M$46.59 per share. This target price is higher than our FV/EBITDA-multiple-driven price, but given the low visibility of results in the coming quarter, we prefer not to use this methodology as our main valuation tool. We point out that we are reducing the capex estimate in our model from US$450 million to US$400 million, assuming the company will make lower investments in the current economic environment.

6 Factoring in a Weaker Outlook and Introducing Year-end 2009 Target Price NET ASSET VALUE We estimate that Alfa s stock is currently trading at a 59% discount to its estimated NAV. Our estimated discount compares with the company s estimated discount of 30% for the last three years. Our current NAV reflects the industries valuation for 2009, which, in our view, should show a recovery by the end of 2009, on an improved outlook for Therefore, in our opinion, the current discount to NAV looks very attractive, as it is compared with very depressed valuations.

Sources: Santander and Thomson Analytics estimates. *Estimated increase for NET DEBT MATURITIES Currently, the company has a debt of US$2.8 billion, with a cash position of US$910 million. The company faces maturity of US$239 million in 2009 and US$504 million in We also estimate that the company could generate FCF in 2009 of US$122 million in 2009 and US$251 million (after capex, interest expenses, and taxes). Therefore, in our view, the company s refinancing risk is limited. We also believe that the company could lower its capex requirements in the coming years, if there are no signs of an economic recovery in the medium term, which would also free up resources to pay down debt. RISKS Weaker-than-expected economic growth and exposure to the U.S. economy. Alfa is now an international company, with more than 50% of it sales generated outside of Mexico. In the past, approximately 90% of the exports and foreign operations were in the U.S. or NAFTA region. However, this figure is still close to 50% of the total exports and foreign operations. Furthermore, in the automotive division, the U.S. OEM s still represent close to 50% of its sales. Therefore, if there were weaker-than-expected economic growth in the U.S., Alfa s results would be negatively affected. Figure 8 summarizes our economics team s current macroeconomic estimates. 6

Profitability pressure at Alfa s petrochemical (Alpek) and auto parts divisions (Nemak). The economic slowdown and pressure in cash margins of profitability per unit in both divisions could deteriorate if volume declines more than expected. This would lead to a lower absorption of fixed cost and lower margins in the two most important divisions for the company. Weaker operating margins at Sigma. The company has been increasing prices, but this has not been enough to offset higher prices of raw materials in the past. The combination of higher prices and an economic slowdown could lead to a trade-down in the different categories in which the company operates and, thus, to lower-than-expected margins. Strength of the Mexican peso. Alfa is a predominantly dollarized company, with approximately 80% of total consolidated sales denominated in U.S. dollars, with dollar-denominated costs representing approximately 70%-75% of the total. As a result, a weak peso has a direct and positive impact on the company s operating margin or vice versa. In terms of Alfa s operating divisions, this is particularly true for Nemak, as 100% of its sales are dollar denominated, and it has a significant amount of operating costs in pesos. Other risks include: (1) capacity increases by petrochemical competitors that could alter the supply/demand balance and execution risk related to the integration of acquired assets in the auto parts division (Nemak); and (2) higher cost of financing due to current market conditions.
