The accompanying notes are an integral part of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. 3 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS (Stated in thousands of U.S. dollars) (Unaudited) (1) Basis of presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 1999 and 2000 included herein have been prepared by Panamerican Beverages, Inc. (the "Company"), in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2000, and the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 2000. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 15, 2000. The Company has made no significant changes in accounting policies from those reflected in the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 20-F. The financial statements of the Colombian and Venezuelan subsidiaries for all periods have been remeasured into U.S. dollars, the reporting and functional currency, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", as it applies to highly inflationary economies. The functional currencies of the Mexican, Brazilian, Costa Rican, Nicaraguan and Guatemalan subsidiaries are the Mexican peso, Brazilian real, Costa Rican colon, Nicaraguan cordova and Guatemalan quetzal, respectively. The financial statements of the Mexican, Brazilian, Costa Rican, Nicaraguan and Guatemalan subsidiaries have been translated using the current rate translation method and the resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is a component of shareholders' equity.

(2) New accounting standards and pronouncements In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS-133"), which revises the accounting and related disclosures for derivative financial instruments. The Company is evaluating whether the adoption of this standard, which will be implemented in the first quarter of 2001, will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. In May 2000, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued EITF 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives". EITF 00-14 provides specific guidance on the accounting for and presentation of sales incentives offered by companies to their customers. These incentives include discounts, coupons, rebates and free products or services. The Company implemented the provisions of EITF 00-14 during the third quarter of 2000. The implementation did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. (3) Reorganization program During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Company continued its reorganization program, which was implemented during the first quarter of 2000. As a result of this reorganization program, during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 the Company recorded the following items in the statements of operations: Facilities reorganization charges.- During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company recorded $79,878 of charges, all of which were recorded in the first quarter, primarily as a result of the write-off of non-cash items of property, plant and equipment and obsolete bottles and cases amounting to $39,533, and $40,345 of cash items relating 5 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Stated in thousands of U.S. dollars) (Unaudited) primarily to severance payments, job terminations and reorganization of the distribution system of the Venezuelan and Brazilian subsidiaries. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company recorded $11,334 of cash items related to severance payments and job terminations. These amounts have been recorded as facilities reorganization charges. Non-operating expenses.- During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company recorded $4,971 of charges related to the disposal of non-operating assets, including land of some of the operating plants, which are presented as part of other expense, net. As a result of the facilities reorganization charges and the reorganization expenses, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $24,590.

8 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Stated in thousands of U.S. dollars) (Unaudited) (7) Other transactions On March 18, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with ING Baring US Capital, LLC as arranger and administrative agent, for a three-year loan in the amount of $300,000 with quarterly interest payments at LIBOR plus 2.375% through 4.75%. The proceeds were used to repay short-term bank loans of the Company. The loan agreement establishes certain restrictions including minimum consolidated equity and other covenants and ratios. During November 1999, $80,000 of this loan was repaid prior to the scheduled repayment date. On March 27, 2000, the loan agreement was amended to modify certain restrictions and other covenants and ratios. The amendment reduced the required minimum consolidated equity from $1,750,000 to $1,500,000. As of September 30, 2000, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants. (8) Repurchase program On December 9, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of the Company's Class A common stock in an amount not to exceed $100 million in the aggregate. We may repurchase shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors. The Company repurchased 645,916 shares amounting to $11.8 million at an average price per share of $18.22 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Since the beginning of the program in December 1999, the Company has repurchased 1,014,500 shares for a total amount of $19.3 million at an average price per share of $19.05. (9) Earnings (loss) per share Earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding warrants and stock options using the treasury stock method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS-128"). The minority interest in income of subsidiaries has been excluded from income (loss) available to common stockholders. Following is a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding with the number of shares used in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share: 9 PANAMERICAN BEVERAGES, INC.

17 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The following discussion addresses the financial condition and results of operations of Panamerican Beverages, Inc. ("Panamco") and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 1999 and 2000 and for the three month and nine month periods then ended and the notes thereto included elsewhere herein. Results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any full year. We conduct our operations through tiers of subsidiaries in which, in some cases, minority shareholders hold interests. Since we have varying percentage ownership interests in our approximately 60 consolidated subsidiaries, the amount of the minority interest in income or loss before minority interest during a period depends upon the revenues and expenses of each of the consolidated subsidiaries and the percentage of each of such subsidiary's capital stock owned by minority shareholders during such period. In 1998, we created the "Panamco Central America" group, which consists of Panamco Costa Rica, Panamco Nicaragua and Panamco Guatemala. The financial condition and results of operations of these three companies have been reported together in the financial statements of Panamco Central America. In February 1999, we formed the North Latin American Division, which consists of Panamco Mexico and Panamco Central America. We will continue to report these results of operations separately. Unit case means 192 ounces of finished beverage product (24 eight-ounce servings). Average sales prices per unit case means net sales in U.S. dollars for the period divided by the number of unit cases sold during the same period. Cash operating profit means operating income plus depreciation, amortization of goodwill and noncash facilities reorganization charges. Forward-looking statements, contained in this document include the amount of future capital expenditures and the possible uses of proceeds from any future borrowings. The words believes, intends, expects, anticipates, projects, estimates, predicts, and similar expressions are also intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements, estimates, and projections reflect various assumptions by our management, concerning anticipated results and are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. Factors that could cause results to differ include, but are not limited to, changes in the soft drink business environment, including actions of competitors and changes in consumer preference, changes in governmental laws and regulations, including income taxes, market demand for new and existing products, raw material prices and devaluation of local currencies against the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that such statements, estimates and projections will be realized. The forecasts and actual results will likely vary and those variations may be material. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such statements, estimates or projections contained in this document or that any forecast contained herein will be achieved. 18 Regarding the Year 2000 issue, as of this date, there have been no adverse effects on the Company's systems or operations, including the ability of any significant customer, vendor or service provider that do business with the Company, and we have complied with all regulatory and contractual requirements. We do not expect any contingencies regarding this issue. Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 Consolidated Results of Operations Consolidated net sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 2000, increased 7.1% to $648.2 million from $605.1 million in the 1999 third quarter, mainly due to an increase of 1.8% in consolidated unit case sales volume. Total consolidated unit case sales increased to 299.9 million cases from 294.6 unit cases in the 1999 period. Consolidated soft drink sales volume for the period was down 0.8%, reflecting increases of 7.6% in Venezuela, 3.5% in Mexico, 2.4% in the Central American Region and 0.4% in Colombia, offset by a decline of 12.2% in Brazil. Consolidated unit case sales volume of bottled water increased 16.8% to 62.4 million unit cases, and unit case sales volume of beer, sold in Brazil and Venezuela, decreased 9.9% to 14.3 million unit cases. The cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 47.0% during the 2000 third quarter from 49.0% in the 1999 third quarter, primarily driven by cost savings in raw materials and packaging in several countries due to improved procurement contracts. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 44.4% during the 2000 third quarter from 44.0% in 1999, mainly as a result of a one-time charge of $4.0 million related to senior management changes announced in October, offset by the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Operating income increased to $55.2 million during the third quarter of 2000 from $42.8 million in 1999. Cash operating profit increased 14.7% to $121.4 million from $105.9 million in the 1999 third quarter. Net interest expense increased to $28.1 million during the third quarter of 2000 from $23.1 million in the 1999 period, due primarily to an increase in the average variable (LIBOR) interest rate. Other expense, net decreased to $5.7 million during the 2000 third quarter from $13.0 million in the 1999 period, primarily as a result of a $5.5 million decrease in foreign exchange losses in Brazil. The consolidated effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was 92.2% compared to 246.6% during the three months ended September 30, 1999. The increased rate during the three months ended September 30, 1999 was the result of our decision to establish a valuation allowance on benefits of tax loss carry-forwards from prior years in Venezuela. This valuation allowance was established because of the uncertainty that we would have sufficient taxable income in the near term to offset against such benefits. 19 As a result of the foregoing, Panamco had net income for the 2000 third quarter of $0.5 million, or $0.00 per share (basic and diluted), compared to a net loss of $11.0 million, or $0.08 per share (basic and diluted), in the third quarter of 1999. Regional Results Mexico Panamco Mexico reported an increase of 20.3% in net sales to $255.8 million during the third quarter of 2000, compared to $212.6 million in the 1999 third quarter. Soft drink sales increased 18.9% on volume growth of 3.5% to 72.5 million unit cases and a 15.0% price increase in dollar terms. Water volume grew 24.1% to 43.8 million unit cases, mainly due to the continued increase in water jug sales volume due to increased coverage of the Company's franchise territories. During the quarter, Panamco Mexico maintained its strong soft drink share of sales of 82.4%. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales dropped to 43.3% in the 2000 third quarter versus 46.6% during third quarter of 1999, mainly due to continued cost savings in raw materials. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 36.7% in the third quarter of 2000 from 34.2% in the comparable period for 1999, mainly due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses as a result of higher sales commissions and increased administrative wages and benefits, as well as higher depreciation expenses. Operating income increased to $51.2 million from $40.9 million in the 1999 third quarter as a result of the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Cash operating profit increased 26.1% to $64.9 million from $51.5 million in the 1999 third quarter. Net interest expense in the 2000 third quarter remained flat at $2.6 million compared to the 1999 period. Other expense, net increased to $1.2 million in the 2000 third quarter from $0.03 million in the 1999 quarter, mainly due to a $1.4 million increase in foreign exchange losses. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter increased slightly to 33.7% from 32.6%. As a result of the foregoing, net income contributed by Panamco Mexico to the Company increased 22.6% to $29.9 million for the third quarter of 2000 compared to $24.4 million in the third quarter of 1999. Net income attributable to Panamco for the 2000 quarter was positively impacted by the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Brazil Panamco Brasil, which operates in the Sao Paulo, Campinas, Santos and Mato Grosso do Sul regions of Brazil, reported 2000 third quarter net sales of $111.8 million, a decrease of 4.4% from the 1999 quarter, primarily as a result of a volume decline of 11.6%, partially offset by strategic pricing initiatives implemented during the quarter. Sales volume of soft drinks decreased by 12.2% to 53.9 million unit cases, following the Company's exit in July of its 20 promotional pricing strategy, in place since March 1999. Beer volume decreased by 12.5% to 13.8 million unit cases and bottled water volume increased 8.0% to 3.1 million unit cases. Panamco Brasil maintained a strong 54.2% total soft drink share of sales in the 2000 third quarter. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 60.1% in the 2000 third quarter from 60.0% in the 1999 third quarter. The slight increase is primarily attributable to lower production efficiencies, offset by the reductions in the cost of raw materials and production labor and increased direct sales to supermarkets by Cervejarias Kaiser in Panamco Brasil territories. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 36.2% from 38.9% in the 1999 third quarter, mainly due to cost and expense reductions resulting from the Company's reorganization program. Operating income increased 216.1% to $4.2 million during the third quarter of 2000 from $1.3 million in the 1999 quarter, primarily as a result of the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Cash operating profit increased 32.3% to $11.9 million from $9.0 million in the 1999 third quarter. Net interest expense decreased by 30.1% to $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $4.0 million in the 1999 quarter, mainly due to less interest paid resulting from reduced indebtedness. Other expense, net decreased to $6.8 million in the 2000 third quarter from $10.2 million in the 1999 quarter, mainly as a result of a $5.5 million decrease in foreign exchange losses, offset by a $1.6 million increase in equity loss of Cervejarias Kaiser. The effective income tax benefit increased to 38.3% in the third quarter of 2000 from 28.6% in the 1999 quarter, as a result of favorable tax planning strategies. As a result of the above, the net loss contributed to Panamco by Panamco Brasil decreased 64.0% to $3.3 million in the third quarter 2000 from $9.0 million in the 1999 period. Colombia Panamco Colombia, which operates throughout Colombia, reported net sales of $93.4 million for the 2000 third quarter, up 3.3% from the 1999 period. The revenue increase resulted from price increases in local currency, partially offset by a 14.0% devaluation of the Colombian peso over the last twelve months and a 1.3% decrease in total volumes to 47.0 million unit cases, mainly the result of a weak economic environment. Soft drink volume was up 0.4% to 38.2 million unit cases, as a result of strong marketing and merchandising activities. Water volume was down 7.9% to 8.8 million unit cases, as a result of price increases mainly in certain specific individual size presentations. Panamco Colombia continued strengthening its position in the market, achieving a record high soft drink share of sales of 68.3% in September 2000, up 2.9 points from the same period in 1999. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 43.2% during the third quarter of 2000 from 45.3% in the same period of 1999, as a result of cost savings in raw materials. 21 Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 49.7% in the third quarter of 2000 from 51.1% in the 1999 quarter, mainly due to cost and expense reductions resulting from the Company's reorganization program. Operating income increased 106.1% to $6.6 million during the third quarter of 2000 from operating income of $3.2 million in the 1999 quarter, primarily as a result of the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Cash operating profit increased 20.7% to $21.9 million from $18.2 million in the 1999 third quarter. Net interest expense increased during the third quarter of 2000 to $1.1 million from $0.08 million in the 1999 quarter, due to a larger currency translation effect during the 1999 third quarter. Without the translation effect, net interest expense decreased by 34.6%, due to less interest paid resulting from reduced indebtedness. Other income, net in the 2000 third quarter remained flat at $0.2 million compared to the 1999 period. The effective income tax rate increased to 27.1% in the third quarter of 2000 from 25.0% in the 1999 quarter, primarily due to the recognition of tax credits recorded during the third quarter of 1999, which were not available in the 2000 quarter. As a result of the above, net income attributable to the Company from Panamco Colombia increased 65.6% to $4.0 million in the 2000 third quarter from net income of $2.4 million in the 1999 period. Venezuela Panamco Venezuela reported net sales of $131.6 million for the third quarter of 2000, down 2.0% from 1999, mainly as a result of devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar, which was not fully offset by price increases in local currency for the period. Total sales volume for the third quarter increased 9.3% to 47.2 million unit cases of which soft drink and water volumes increased 7.6% and 26.4%, respectively. Panamco Venezuela maintained its strong soft drink share of sales of 66.1% for the quarter. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 46.6% during the third quarter of 2000 from 46.0% during the same period in 1999, as a result of higher costs associated with the increase in sales of nonreturnable presentations. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 53.4% in the third quarter of 2000 from 52.3% in the 1999 quarter, mainly due to the impact of a mandatory salary increase, not fully offset by cost reduction efforts related to our reorganization program announced in May. Operating loss decreased 103.7% to $0.09 million during the third quarter of 2000 from operating income of $2.3 million in the 1999 quarter, primarily due to lower net sales as a result of devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar. Cash operating profit decreased 10.0% to $18.3 million from $20.3 million in the 1999 third quarter. 22 Net interest expense increased to $7.0 million during the third quarter of 2000 from $4.7 million in 1999, due to $2.0 million in costs incurred in a $120.0 million hedging contract entered into on July 18, 2000 and an increase in the average variable (LIBOR) interest rate. Other income, net increased to $3.9 million from $0.3 million in the 1999 third quarter, primarily due to recognition of a tax credit because of a favorable outcome of a claim and income received from sales of returned packaging materials. The effective income tax rate decreased to 9.5% in the third quarter of 2000 from 197.1% in 1999. The increased rate during the three months ended September 30, 1999 was the result of our decision to establish a valuation allowance on benefits of tax loss carry-forwards from prior years. This valuation allowance was established because of the uncertainty that we would generate sufficient taxable income in the near term to offset against such benefits. As a result of the above, net loss attributable to the Company from Panamco Venezuela decreased 46.4% to $3.4 million in the 2000 third quarter from $6.3 million in the 1999 period. Central America Panamco's Central American region includes franchises in Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Guatemala. The region reported net sales of $55.7 million for the third quarter of 2000, an increase of 9.7% from $50.8 million in the third quarter of 1999. The increase was attributable to volume growth of 0.9% to 18.0 million unit cases, and to price increases in dollar terms of approximately 8.8%. Soft drink volume increased 2.4% to 17.2 million unit cases and water volume was down 27.6% to 0.7 million unit cases, due to a change in the Company's selling strategy for five gallon jug presentations. Panamco's share of sales increased to 94.1% in Costa Rica, 44.6% in Guatemala and 84.9% in Nicaragua. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 45.6% during the third quarter of 2000 from 47.8% in the same period of 1999, as a result cost savings in raw materials. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 41.9% in the third quarter of 2000 from 40.5% during the same period in 1999, mainly due to higher sales and distribution expenses. Operating income increased 17.6% to $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $6.0 million in the 1999 period, primarily as a result of higher sales. Cash operating profit increased 5.0% to $10.9 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $10.4 million in the 1999 period. Net interest expense decreased to $0.2 million from $0.5 million in the third quarter of 1999, due to a decrease in net debt and improved financing conditions. Other expense, net decreased to $0.6 million from $2.2 million in the 1999 third quarter, as a result of lower foreign exchange losses in Nicaragua and Guatemala. As a result of the above, net income contributed by Panamco Central America to the Company increased 123.6% to $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $2.3 million in the 1999 period. 23 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 Consolidated Results of Operations Consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, increased 6.6% to $1.90 billion from $1.78 billion during the same period in 1999, mainly due to an increase of 4.4% in consolidated unit case sales volume. Total consolidated unit cases sales increased to 893.3 million cases from 856.0 unit cases in the 1999 period. Consolidated soft drink sales volume for the period was up 2.4%, reflecting increases of 5.7% in Mexico, 1.6% in Venezuela, 1.3% in the Central American Region, 0.6% in Colombia and 0.5% in Brazil. Consolidated unit case sales volume of bottled water increased 12.6% to 179.3 million, and unit case sales volume of beer, sold in Brazil and Venezuela, increased 3.8% to 45.0 million unit cases. The cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 47.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 49.3% during the same period in 1999, primarily driven by cost savings in raw materials and packaging in several countries due to improved procurement contracts. The following discussions are after the recording of facilities reorganization charges (explained below). Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 48.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 45.3% during the same period in 1999, mainly as a result of the effect of facilities reorganization charges of $79.9 million or 4.2% as a percentage of net sales in 2000 compared to $11.3 million in the same 1999 period. Operating income decreased to $73.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $96.8 million during the same period in 1999. Cash operating profit increased 9.5% to $312.8 from $285.6 million during the same period in 1999. Net interest expense increased to $83.2 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $69.9 million during the same period in 1999, due primarily to an increase in the average variable (LIBOR) interest rate. Other expense, net decreased to $18.1 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $40.1 million during the same period in 1999, primarily caused by a $31.5 million decrease in foreign exchange losses in Brazil due to a 59.0% devaluation of the Brazilian real during the first nine months of 1999, partially offset by $5.0 million of non-operating charges related to the disposal of non-operating assets during the first nine months of 2000. The consolidated effective income tax rate decreased to 106.1% during the first nine months of 2000 from 272.4% during the first nine months of 1999, as a result of higher losses reported during the first nine months of 2000, the effect of the asset tax (minimum tax) in Venezuela and our decision to establish a valuation allowance on benefits of tax loss carry-forwards from prior years in Venezuela because of the uncertainty that we would have sufficient taxable income in the near term to offset against such benefits. 24 As a result of the foregoing, Panamco had a net loss for the first nine months of 2000 of $59.5 million, or $0.46 per share (basic and diluted), compared to a net loss of $51.5 million, or $0.40 per share (basic and diluted), during the first nine months of 1999. Facilities reorganization charges. During the first nine months of 2000, Panamco began a company-wide reorganization program designed to improve productivity and strengthen the Company's competitive position in the beverage industry. The program includes productivity initiatives to streamline Panamco's manufacturing infrastructure, consolidation of distribution centers and warehouses, and the termination of approximately 6,750 jobs across all levels of the Company. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, Panamco recorded a net one-time charge of $84.8 million, $79.9 million as facilities reorganization charges and $5.0 million as non-operating charges, reflecting the following items related to the Company's reorganization program: 1. Restructuring charges totaling $59.4 million consist of the following: o Cash restructuring charges totaling approximately $39.8 million, which include $31.9 million from job terminations and $7.0 million from the restructuring of our distribution system in Brazil and Venezuela; o Non-cash restructuring charges totaling approximately $19.6 million, which result from seven plant closings and the related disposal of property, plant and equipment; 2. Asset write-offs totaling $20.5 million, including $15.5 million of property, plant and equipment in all operating units and $4.5 million of obsolete bottles and cases, mainly in the Venezuelan unit's water jug business, and $0.5 million of cash charges related to the disposal of property, plant and equipment; and 3. Non-operating asset charges totaling $5.0 million, net related to the disposal of non-operating assets, including affiliated companies and land in some of the operating units. As a result of the above, Panamcos income for the first nine months of 2000 was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $60.3 million, net of the related tax benefit of approximately $24.6 million. Regional Results Mexico Panamco Mexico reported an increase of 23.7% in net sales to $726.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to $586.9 million during the same period of 1999. Soft drink sales increased 22.4% on volume growth of 5.7% to 214.7 million unit cases and a 28.3% price increase in dollar terms. Water volume grew 19.8% to 125.3 million unit cases, mainly due to the continued increase in water jug sales volume due to increased coverage of the Company's franchise territories. During the first nine months of 2000, Panamco Mexico maintained its strong soft drink share of sales of 80.5%. 25 Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 44.4% for the first nine months of 2000 versus 47.5% for the same period of 1999, mainly due to continued cost savings in raw materials. Operating expenses, including facilities reorganization charges, as a percentage of net sales increased to 40.3% for the first nine months of 2000 from 35.9% in the comparable period for 1999, mainly due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses as a result of higher sales commissions and increased administrative wages and benefits, higher depreciation expenses and facilities reorganization charges of $19.0 million or 2.6% as a percentage of net sales. Operating income increased to $110.8 million for the first nine months of 2000 compared to $97.6 million during the same period of 1999. Cash operating profit increased 27.6% to $162.4 million from $127.2 million for the same period of 1999. Net interest expense increased by 30.6% to $9.9 million for the first nine months of 2000 from $7.6 million in 1999 due to the issuance of an aggregate of $106 million in unsecured peso-denominated promissory notes in November of 1999 in a local debt offering. Other income, net decreased to $0.2 million for the first nine months of 2000 from $5.2 million in 1999, due to a decrease in profit from the sale of property and equipment of $1.9 million, a decrease in contributions received from The Coca-Cola Company for capital expenditures of $1.6 million and non-operating charges of $1.7 million related to the disposal of non-operating assets. The effective income tax rate for the period increased slightly to 33.2% from 32.6% in the prior year. As a result of the foregoing, net income contributed by Panamco Mexico to the Company increased 5.5% to $63.9 million for the first nine months of 2000 compared to $60.6 million during the same period of 1999. Net income attributable to Panamco for the first nine months of 2000 was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $13.5 million, net of the related tax benefit. Brazil Panamco Brasil, which operates in the Sao Paulo, Campinas, Santos and Mato Grosso do Sul regions of Brazil, reported a decrease of 3.3% in net sales to $356.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to net sales of $368.3 million during the same period of 1999, primarily the result of a lower average price per beer sold, caused by increased direct sales made by Cervejarias Kaiser to the supermarkets, for which Panamco Brasil records the commissions as sales. Sales volume of soft drinks increased by 0.5%, to 169.0 million unit cases. Beer volume increased by 1.7% to 43.9 million unit cases and bottled water volume increased 7.5% to 9.9 million unit cases. During the first nine months of 2000, Panamco Brasil maintained a strong 55.9% total soft drink share of sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased slightly to 61.0% for the first nine months of 2000 versus 61.3% for the same period of 1999. The decrease is primarily 26 attributable to the reductions in the cost of raw materials and production labor and increased direct sales to supermarkets by Cervejarias Kaiser in Panamco Brasil territories. Operating expenses, including facilities reorganization charges, as a percentage of net sales decreased to 37.4% for the first nine months of 2000 from 38.4% in the comparable period for 1999, mainly due to cost and expense reductions resulting from the Company's reorganization program. Operating income increased 442.3% to $5.6 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $1.0 million during the same period of 1999, primarily as a result of the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Cash operating profit increased 20.6% to $32.0 million from $26.6 million for the same period of 1999. Net interest expense decreased by 8.3% to $10.0 million during the first nine months of 2000 versus $10.9 million for the same period of 1999, caused by less interest paid resulting from debt reduction. Other expense, net decreased to $12.2 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $41.3 million for the same period of 1999, mainly as a result of a decrease in foreign exchange loss, which was $1.7 million for the first nine months of 2000 due to a 3.0% devaluation of the Brazilian real versus a $33.2 million foreign exchange loss in the first nine months of 1999 due to a 63.4% devaluation. Panamco Brasil also had non-operating charges of $1.0 million related to the disposal of non-operating assets during the first nine months of 2000. The effective income tax benefit increased to 47.5% during the first nine months of 2000 from 27.9% for the same period of 1999, mainly due to favorable tax planning strategies. As a result of the above, the net loss contributed to Panamco by Panamco Brasil decreased 76.3% to $8.6 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $36.4 million in the 1999 period. This net loss was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $8.1 million, net of the related tax benefit. Colombia Panamco Colombia, which operates throughout Colombia, reported net sales of $278.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, down 5.8% from the 1999 period. The revenue decline was mainly due to the devaluation of the Colombian peso and to a 12.3% decrease in water volume to 25.7 million unit cases, partially offset by a 0.6% increase in soft drink volume to 114.1 million unit cases. The water volume decrease was attributable to economic recession and price increases mainly in individual-size presentations. Panamco Colombia continued strengthening its position in the market, achieving a soft drink share of sales of 67.9% during the first nine months of 2000. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 42.5% for the first nine months 2000 from 44.5% in the same period of 1999, as a result of cost savings in raw materials. Operating expenses, including facilities reorganization charges, as a percentage of net sales increased to 58.4% during the first nine months of 2000 from 51.7% in the 1999 period, 27 mainly due to Panamco's facilities reorganization charges of $18.2 million or 6.5% as a percentage of net sales. Operating loss increased 122.7% to $2.6 million during the first nine months of 2000 from operating income of $11.3 million in the 1999 period, primarily as a result of lower sales and the facilities reorganization charges. Cash operating profit decreased 10.7% to $49.5 million from $55.4 million in the 1999 period. Net interest expense increased slightly during the first nine months of 2000 to $3.0 million from $2.9 million in the 1999 period, due mainly to an increase in the average interest rate. Other expense, net increased to $5.4 million for the nine months of 2000 from income of $1.8 million in the 1999 period, primarily due to non-operating charges of $2.5 million related to the disposal of non-operating assets and a $1.6 million provision for contingencies. The effective income tax rate increased to 33.4% for the first nine months of 2000 from 21.1% in the 1999 period, primarily due to the recognition of tax credits recorded during the first quarter of 1999, which were not available in the 2000 quarter. As a result of the above, net loss attributable to the Company from Panamco Colombia increased 193.4% to $7.2 million during the first nine months of 2000 from net income of $7.7 million in the 1999 period. This net loss was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $14.2 million, net of the related tax benefit. Venezuela Panamco Venezuela reported net sales of $371.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, down 0.2% from 1999. Devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar was not fully offset by price increases in local currency for the nine month period. Total sales volume increased by 4.3% to 134.4 million unit cases, mainly offset by the difficult economic conditions in Venezuela. Panamco Venezuela's soft drink share of sales reached 68.5% during the first nine months of the year. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly to 46.0% during the first nine months of 2000 from 45.1% during the same period in 1999, as a result of higher costs associated with the increase in sales of nonreturnable presentations. Operating expenses, including facilities reorganization charges, as a percentage of net sales increased to 61.4% during the first nine months of 2000 from 55.8% in the 1999 period, mainly due to facilities reorganization charges of $30.9 million or 8.3% as a percentage of net sales, representing an increase of 5.9 points versus the first nine months of 1999. Operating loss increased 746.4% to $27.6 million from $3.3 million for the first nine months of 1999, primarily as a result of the increase in facilities reorganization charges. Cash operating profit decreased 8.7% to $46.4 million from $50.8 million in the 1999 period. Net interest expense increased during the first nine months of 2000 to $17.9 million from $12.8 million in 1999, mainly due to $2.0 million in costs incurred in a $120.0 million hedging 28 contract entered into on July 18, 2000 and an increase in the average variable (LIBOR) interest rate. Other income, net increased 44.6% to $3.2 million from $2.2 million for the first nine months of 1999, primarily due to recognition of a tax credit because of a favorable outcome of a claim and income received from sales of returned packaging materials, offset by provisions for legal contingencies related to prior years. The effective income tax rate decreased to 8.5% during the first nine months of 2000 from 54.8% in 1999. The increased rate during the first nine months of 1999 was primarily due to the asset tax or minimum tax paid in Venezuela as a result of a net loss position before income taxes and our decision to establish a valuation allowance on benefits of tax loss carry-forwards from prior years, because of the uncertainty that we would generate sufficient taxable income in the near term to offset against such benefits. As a result of the above, net loss attributable to the Company from Panamco Venezuela increased 81.0% to $38.8 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $21.4 million in the 1999 period. The net loss attributable to Panamco for the first nine months of 2000 was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $23.8 million, net of the related tax benefit. Central America Panamco's Central American region includes franchises in Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Guatemala. The region reported net sales of $165.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of 5.1% from $157.1 million in 1999. The increase was attributable to price increases in dollar terms of approximately 5.5%, partially offset by volume decline of 0.2% to 54.2 million unit cases. Soft drink volume increased 1.3% to 51.8 million unit cases and water volume was down 27.1% to 2.0 million unit cases, due to a change in selling strategy for jug presentations. Panamco's share of sales increased to 94.1% in Costa Rica, 44.0% in Guatemala and 85.1% in Nicaragua during the first nine months of the year. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 45.9% during the first nine months of 2000 from 46.8% in the same period of 1999, as a result of cost savings in raw materials. Operating expenses, including facilities reorganization charges, as a percentage of net sales increased to 41.9% during the first nine months of 2000 from 40.6% during the same period of 1999, primarily as a result of higher sales and distribution expenses and facilities reorganization charges of $0.7 million or 0.4% as a percentage of net sales. Operating income increased 1.5% to $20.1 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $19.8 million in the 1999 period, primarily as a result of higher sales and the initial benefits of the reorganization program. Cash operating profit remained flat at $33.3 million for the first nine months of 2000 compared to the 1999 period. Net interest expense decreased to $0.7 million for the first nine months of 2000 from $1.5 million in the 1999 period, due to a decrease in net debt and improved financing conditions. 29 Other expense, net decreased to $1.4 million for the first nine months of 2000 from $4.6 million in the 1999 period, mainly as a result of lower foreign exchange losses in Nicaragua and Guatemala. As a result of the above, net income contributed by Panamco Central America to the Company increased 47.2% to $14.1 million during the first nine months of 2000 from $9.6 million in the 1999 period. Net income attributable to Panamco for the first nine months of 2000 was impacted by facilities reorganization charges and non-operating charges totaling $0.5 million, net of the related tax benefit. Liquidity and Capital Resources At September 30, 2000, we had consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $147.4 million, a decrease of 3.4% compared to $152.6 million as of December 31, 1999. We have investments in bank deposits for $125.0 million and marketable bonds amounting to $37.5 million, which guarantee bank loans obtained by subsidiaries and are therefore classified as noncurrent investments. Consolidated cash flow provided by operations was $207.9 million and $170.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Total consolidated indebtedness was $1,273.3 million as of September 30, 2000, consisting of $830.0 million at the holding company level and $443.3 million of subsidiary indebtedness. Of the total debt, 86.6% is dollar denominated and 91.2% is long-term, with an average tenure of 3.1 years and average cost of debt before taxes of 9.2%. On December 9, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $100 million of our Class A common stock. We may repurchase shares in the open market as well as in privately negotiated transactions based on prevailing market conditions and other factors. We have repurchased 1,014,500 shares for $19.3 million at an average price per share of $19.05 since the beginning of the program in December 1999. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, we repurchased 645,916 shares for an aggregate of $11.8 million at an average price per share of $18.22. Total capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $96.5 million compared to $149.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. This decrease resulted primarily from reduced capital spending. On May 25, 2000, Panamco Brasil entered into a $30 million interest rate swap hedging contract with Citibank, N.A. The contract includes a $10 million interest rate swap at 19.7% per year with a one year expiration date and a $20 million interest rate swap at 19.7% per year with a one and a half year expiration date. On July 18, 2000, Panamco Venezuela entered into a $120 million cross-currency swap hedging contract with Citibank, N.A. The contract includes a three year $120 million currency swap, at U.S. LIBOR plus 4.05% per year, from the Japanese yen to the U.S. dollar, out of which $50 million was converted into Venezuelan bolivar, bearing interest at 29.5%, with a repricing option every six months. 30 In July 2000, Panamco Colombia issued unsecured promissory notes in local currency equivalent to $32 million. These notes include a $15 million issuance with a five year maturity and bearing interest at DTF (Colombian borrowing rate) plus 2.75% and a $17 million issuance with a seven year maturity and bearing interest at DTF plus 2.90% of which both issuances pay interest quarterly. The proceeds from the debt issue were used to pay U.S. dollar denominated debt. ITEM 3.
