Financial results discontinued operations


On 19 October 2009 Nutreco has completed the divestment of its majority shareholding in Integra, Czech Republic, to Hendrix Genetics. Hendrix Genetics already owned 34% in Integra. Integra is a layer pullet and hatchery business and was part of Nutreco’s subsidiary Trouw Nutrition Biofaktory, the premix and specialty feed company in the Czech Republic acquired in 2008. The company has 80 employees and owns two hatcheries in the Czech Republic. The company was sold at book value.


The divested business in 2009 is not considered as discontinued operations, because Integra does not represent a separate major line of business or geographical area and was not acquired with the intention to resale.
