*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

1Q2013 Results

Dear Shareholders,

We begin the year able to record highly positive results across the entire balance sheet and in line with our expectations of an improving scenario. The successful positioning of the brands, portfolio and innovation established during the preceding year by the Company, were instrumental in driving the growth and returns reported in the quarter compared with 2012. And this was in spite of the transfer of assets and suspension of brands accounting for a third of sales volume to the domestic market.

The Company reported net consolidated sales growth of 13.8% to R$ 7.2 billion. Adjusted EBITDA reached R$ 852.5 million with a net margin of 11.8% against 8.4% reported in 1Q12 and EBITDA reached R$ 803.8 million. Net income climbed 134% to R$ 358.5 million, equivalent to a net margin of 5.0% against 2.4% in 1Q12.

This improved performance was a result of a positive contribution of all segments of the business, more especially the domestic market which in the quarter accounted for 78.5% of the operating result on a margin of 13.4%.

Exports which had posted a negative operating margin of 2.3% in 2012, in 1Q13 recorded a positive 1.1%, contributing R$ 34.5 million to operating result and reflecting the gradual expected recovery in the export market.

In the food services business, there was a 3.0 percentage point gain in operating margin to 14% against 11% in 1Q12.

The proposed strategy for improving performance in the dairy product segment proved effective in the period, reverting the negative results to an operating profit of R$ 28.8 million, corresponding to a 4.4% operating margin.

On April 9, 2013, the Company held its Extraordinary and Annual General Meeting, approving among other matters the election of the Board of Directors and confirming Mr. Abilio Diniz as chairman of the Board. The shareholders also placed on record a vote of thanks to the Company’s former chairman, Nildemar Secches, for the 13 years during which he led the management of Perdigão in addition to the 4 years at BRF, highlighting his excellent work in achieving growth and robust returns as well as establishing the basis for growth of the Company as it initiates the new cycle.

In 2013, BRF is now effectively operating as a single Company following the completion of a successful merger process, leaving it ready to unlock still more value and proceed steadfastly with its strategy of growth and internationalization.

With new leadership in the Board of Directors, the Company is preparing for a new cycle of accelerating growth and a further advance in results. It is our belief that with its accumulated experience, vitality and entrepreneurship, the Board will make a decisive contribution to the success of this cycle which is now beginning.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

1 st Quarter 2013 (1Q13)

· Net sales totaled R$ 7.2 billion, a year-on-year growth of 13.8%, a notable contribution to this growth performance coming from revenues obtained in the following operating segments: domestic market 4.2%; exports 31.1%; dairy products 0.3% and food service 3.5%. This was achieved thanks to efforts to offset the effects of the TCD (Performance Agreement Instrument).

· The meats, dairy products and other processed products in addition to other items recorded sales of 1.4 million tons, 5.0% less, impacted by asset sales and discontinuation of certain brands following the signature of the agreement with the Brazilian Anti-trust Authority - CADE in 3Q12.

· Gross profit totaled R$ 1.7 billion, a 26.3% increase due to the efficient management of the cost-price ratio jointly with the control of expenses in spite of cost pressures. The Company reported an improvement in gross margin from 21.2% to 23.5%.

· Adjusted EBITDA reached R$ 852.5 million, a 60.2% improvement, registering an adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.8% against 8.4% reported in 1Q12 and a gain of 3.4 percentage points. EBITDA reached R$ 803.8 million in 1Q13 (58.9% over 1Q12) with an EBITDA margin of 11.1% against 8.0%.

Sector Scenario

Brazilian Exports

The first quarter 2013 reported a decline in the volume of pork and chicken meat exports compared with 1Q12. However, results for beef exports in the quarter continued to increase both in volume as well as in revenue (measured in US$).

Exported volume of chicken meat amounted to 901 thousand tons in 1Q13, 7.5% down on 1Q12. In revenue terms (in US$), 1Q13 was 2.2% more than 1Q12. Major declines in volume in 1Q13 versus 1Q12 were reported for the United Arab Emirates (-11.3%), Hong Kong (-31.2%) and South Africa (-8.3%). In spite of an end to anti-dumping measures in the latter market, Brazilian export volume has still to recover to its former levels. On the other hand, volumes to the Middle East as a whole increased 10.2% on the same comparative basis, Saudi Arabia turning in a

strong performance (+28.2%). The Asiatic market posted a significant decline in volume in 1Q13 versus 1Q12 (-14.4%), although there was an increase of 16.7% by volume in Brazilian exports to Japan on the same parameters for comparison.

Shipments of pork meat reached 120 thousand tons in 1Q13, 2.9% down on 1Q12. Export revenue for the quarter (in US$) increased 0.9% compared with 1Q12. Out of the ten leading importers of Brazilian pork, only Russia recorded a year-on-year increase in volume (+95%) principally following a recovery after the lifting of the ban of more than a year on production from the states of Rio Grande do Sul and Paraná. Conversely, Hong Kong and the Ukraine reported a decline in pork meat imports from Brazil of 27% and 6%, respectively, for the same comparable periods. In March 2013, the Ukraine temporarily suspended shipments from Brazil alleging sanitary problems.

ITR – Quarterly Information – March 31, 2013 – BRF S.A.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

Beef export volumes were up on 1Q13. With shipments of 324 thousand tons in the period, 1Q13 exports were 25.5% higher than for 1Q12. Revenues also reported a significant jump of 18.9% against 1Q12. Markets reporting the best performance were Russia, Venezuela and Chile.

Domestic consumption

The Consumer Confidence Index – ICC recorded its most depressed level over the last six months for three years. The Brazilian consumer has become concerned principally with the overall inflation rate which has continued at a high level (1.22% 1Q12 vs. 1.93% 1Q13).

In the 12 month period to the end of March 2013, the inflation rate broke through the upper limit of the band established by the government for price inflation. Consequently, the Amplified Consumer Price Index - IPCA for away from home nutrition reported the same trend (2.11% in 1Q12 vs. 2.84% in 1Q13), driven largely by an increase in prices in the cold beverages category following an increase in the IPI excise tax.

Investments

Investment in Capex in the quarter amounted to R$ 516 million, directed mainly at projects destined for growth, efficiency and support. Investments of R$ 121 million in biological assets (breeder stock) for supplying growth projects are also considered in this amount. Remaining investments relate to capital injections in Rising Star, Avex, Federal Foods and Nutrifont.

Capex - R$ million

Production

A total of 1.3 million tons of food was produced in the quarter, a volume 9.1% down on 2012. Adjustments were made to the meat production segment in the light of the implementation of the Performance Agreement Instrument (TCD) and a reduction in the output of dry line dairy products (UHT milk) – a strategic decision in view of the focus on ramping up profitability.

Production at Quickfood, Argentina was consolidated in July 2012 and recorded in the Company’s overall numbers for the meats and other processed products.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

A total of 58 new products were launched during the year as part of portfolio expansion, the repositioning of the brands and categories and the creating of added value: food service - 8; domestic market – 8; exports – 30; and 12 in the dairy product segment.

DOMESTIC MARKET

Domestic market revenues were R$ 3.1 billion, a year-on-year increase of 4.2%, against 7.5% less volume due to transfers and discontinuation of production with the signing of the TCD. Average prices rose 12.6% and offsetting a rise of 7.4% in average costs due to the improved mix of the portfolio with higher added value products and the passing on of cost inflation in prices. Operating results were R$ 416.8 million, a 46.7% increase, representing an operating margin of 13.4% against 9.5%, a gain of 3.9 p.p.

The operating gain accounting for 78.5% of the consolidated result for the quarter is particularly due to the repositioning of categories and domestic market lines which included: specialty meats and frozen meats, ready-to-eat dishes as well as the launch of special poultry cuts which added 8% in returns obtained from domestic market business.

The Sadia Sabor and Equilíbrio branded lines were launched in the quarter – a quick, complete, nutritionally balanced, nutritive, uncomplicated and delicious meal for day to day eating. Other product launches were: Chicken Nuggets; a new line in breaded products, exclusively with chicken breast – Herbal, Spicy and Traditional flavors. Perdigão branded Sanduba X-Smoked Sausage and X-Chicken products were also launched.

Perdigão Brazil Cup – In March, the Company signed an agreement for sponsoring the Brazil Cup, a competition organized by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). As the official sponsor of the Brazil Cup – the second most important tournament in the country, - Perdigão has been elevated to the name of the competition to be known as the Perdigão Brazil Cup for the next three years. This associates the Perdigão brand with the visibility of the soccer theme in Brazil, reinforcing the fact that it is present in the market with its penetration, quality and tradition.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

EXPORTS

BRF increased its share of exports relative to Brazilian exporters as a whole both in relation to poultry as well as pork meat in spite of a continuing adverse domestic scenario.

In the case of poultry, there was a 3.0 percentage points gain in relation to 1Q12, achieving a 47.6% share of the export market. Performance was generally favorable with the exception of Venezuela. In the case of pork, BRF’s exports recorded a gain of 4.2 percentage points compared with 1Q12, reaching a 46.4% share of export business. In this case, improved performance in smaller markets such as Angola and Singapore, compensated for reduced transactions with Russia and the Ukraine, these being the leading markets for Brazilian pork.

The first quarter was further characterized by situations negatively impacting results in the export markets, such as: logistics and port-related problems due to excess rainfall in the ports located in the south of Brazil and problems due to peak grain shipments through the port of Santos; the ban on Brazilian pork exports to the Ukraine; the continuing slow recovery of the Japanese market and excess volumes in the Venezuelan market.

During the quarter, exports reached 602.1 thousand tons, a volume 4.1% higher than 1Q12. Equally, average prices also recovered, increasing by 25.9% in reais. Revenues were R$ 3.1 billion, a 31.1% rise. Average costs were up 22.0% reflecting the continuing impact of higher prices for soybeans and corn.

Consequently, the export segment posted an operating result of R$ 34.5 million on an operating margin of 1.1% against a negative 2.3% in 1Q12.

BRF’s status in the principal export markets for the quarter was as follows:

Middle East – Revenues were up by 45.7% although volumes were 1.3% down. Important countries such as Egypt and Iraq and substantial consumers of heavy chicken breeds, are facing difficulties which directly reflect consumption. The market for Saudi Arabia and region reported stability.

Far East – In Japan, local inventory of imported products remains under control, suggesting a degree of stability for future business. Demand post-Chinese New Year and the outbreak of avian influenza has reflected in more stable consumption. Export volume was down 11.2% on 1Q12 although revenue rose 7.6%.

Europe – The scenario in 1Q13 was similar to previous periods: there are signs of some evolution in chicken sales although business involving turkey meat remains difficult due to oversupply and weak consumption. The Company’s focus remains on adding value especially for products comprising the Plusfood line. Volume and revenue were 2.9% and 4.4% down, respectively, in relation to 1Q12.

Eurasia – In March 2013, the Ukraine suspended pork imports from Brazil alleging sanitary issues. On the other hand Russia, the largest market in the region operated with a certain degree of stability in 1Q13. In terms of growth, revenues were up 58.3% on higher volume of 36.1%.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

South America – Growth was 77.4% in revenue and 46.6% in volume due to the acquisition of Quickfood, with its Paty brand, in Argentina in July 2012.

Africa and other countries – The highlight in Africa was the launch of a new line of Sadia-branded processed products in some of the principal markets in the region such as Angola, Ghana and Mauritius. Revenue growth was 13.7% against 8.1% lower volume.

DAIRY PRODUCTS

The Company continued to pursue the construction of the Batavo brand’s positioning in the market with the “thinking about your nature” campaign initiated in 2012. In addition, besides several launches of yogurt products, BRF introduced a further innovation, this time in the market for fruit juices with the launch of Batavo Hidra, representing an evolution in fruit juices. The product was launched in the first quarter in a test area, backed by a campaign on the free TV channels, social media, publicity in the leading news vehicles and through tasting events. The campaign shows Batavo Hidra as a differentiated product, unique with milk whey nutrients which simultaneously deliver three benefits – refreshes, provides nutrition and hydrates.

In this context, it should be noted that the Company continues to air its “Cheese you ask by the brand and its Sadia“ campaign in the media.

The strategy for enhancing returns from the business through focusing on a higher value added product mix and lesser dependence on UHT milks is being executed as planned. As a result, we were able to record sales revenue of R$ 647.6 million, 0.3% over 1Q12, although volumes were down 16.5% in line with strategy. Average prices were up 20.1% due to the improved mix while average costs reported an increase of 14.5%. In this context, the operating result amounted to R$ 28.8 million, equivalent to an operating margin of 4.4% against a negative 0.1% in 1Q12.

We continue our determined search for integration on all fronts, distribution centers, sales teams, manufacture and management, definition of the optimum size of the business, prioritizing results, improvement in execution and sustained growth - reaping the rewards in terms of first quarter margins and profits.

FOOD SERVICE

The first quarter 2013 was a challenging one for the food services market. The tendency for the increase in the consumption of meals away from home that has been the characteristic of the last few years suffered due to the decline in consumer confidence, the rise in food and beverage price inflation and greater personal debt levels inherent to the first few months of the year.

The principal fast food chains have reported no effective growth compared with the first quarter 2012. There was a fall in the number of transactions on a same store basis both for proprietary-owned operations as well as franchises. ABAD (Brazilian Wholesalers and Distributors Association) revealed that sales of distributors specialized in Food Services are declining on a monthly basis, albeit reporting effective growth compared with 2012.

With this year’s Carnival holiday period falling early in February, consumers extended their vacations, negatively impacting turnover at those establishments close to offices and business parks.

In spite of the adverse economic climate, we focused on improving the level of service to transformers, presenting growth of 3.5% in relation to the preceding year and reaching R$ 365.0 million on 14.7% lower volumes. Average prices were 21.2% higher against cost increases of 16.5%.

The highlight was a recovery in the segment’s profitability with a gain of 3.0 percentage points in the operating margin of 14.0%, justified by the equalization of the price cost ratio of items sold, reporting an operating result of R$ 50.9 million.

Net Operating Sales

BRF reported net operating sales in the quarter of R$ 7.2 billion, a growth of 13.8% compared with 1Q12, the result of the post-merger repositioning of the brands and portfolios. This involved prioritizing the focus on innovation and the launch of several new products and categories contributing to enhanced revenue together with planned organic growth of the operations of Quickfood acquired in Argentina. In addition, export performance improved with the gradual recovery in demand from the principal markets where the Company operates: the Middle East and the Far East both of which oversupply in 2012. This successful strategy was instrumental in offsetting the impact of the transfer of assets and the discontinuation of categories of some brands in 3Q12 as part of the agreement with CADE for complying with the TCD.

Breakdown of Net Sales (%)

Breakdown by product and by market (Net Sales)

Cost of Sales (COGS)

The cost of sales increased 10.4% compared with 1Q12, reporting R$ 5.5 billion. Despite the increase, costs rose at a lower rate than sales revenue, thus feeding through to an improved gross margin. The following items were largely responsible for cost increases: 1) a spike in the cost of raw materials, more especially in corn in 4Q12 due to the hiatus between crops in Brazil, reflecting in the average cost of production of in-natura products in 1Q13 – principally poultry and pork meats for export; 2) an increase in the items indexed to the foreign exchange rate: packaging, freight, vitamins; 3) adjustment of production lines and productivity following asset transfers in accordance with the TCD; and 4) the application of the new freight regulations under the – “truck drivers’ law”.

*Management* Report / Comments on the Performance****

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross Profit amounted to R$ 1.7 billion, a year-on-year improvement of 26.3% with a gross margin rising by 2.3 percentage points from 21.2% to 23.5%. The gain in gross margin reflects the success in the management of measures adopted for repositioning the Company’s retail operations in the light of the TCD, savings in production costs and the gradual improvement shown in the leading international markets.

Operating Expenses

Operating results also had an impact on the quarter’s results, increasing by a 1.1 percentage point over 1Q12, an increase of 6.3% - but representing half of the growth recorded for operating sales revenue.

Commercial expenses increased by 5.1% in spite of the investments in development of new lines and products (innovation), product launches and marketing campaigns. The relative participation of commercial expenses could have reported more significant gains had it not been for the impact of new freight regulations involving the “truck drivers’ law” which entails an increase in variable commercial expenses on transportation logistics.

Administrative expenses and fees were 1.4% of net operating revenue, a proportionally greater increase over net sales and representing a rise of 20.1% over 1Q12 due to necessary non-recurring expenditures on the implementation of projects.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase of 62.5% in Other Operating Expenses is due to the pre-operational costs of new industrial units, accidents, and provision for tax contingencies.

Expenses with profit sharing are also classified under this item and recorded an increase in the light of improved operating results.

Result of Equity Income

Reflecting results reported from domestic and foreign subsidiaries, equity income increased by 30.9%, a gain of R$ 7.4 million in the result for the quarter, particularly thanks to the results from subsidiaries in Europe and Argentina.

Operating Result before financial expenses and Operating Margin

In the light of the comments above, the operating result before financial expenses was R$ 531.1 million in the quarter – 98.1% higher and representing an operating margin of 7.4% of net operating revenue over the 4.2% recorded in 1Q12. The increase of 3.2 percentage points reflects the improvement in performance of the principal segments: domestic market, food service, exports and dairy products with the amelioration of the impacts of the main sources of production cost.

Financial Result

Net financial expenses amounted to R$ 101.7 million in the quarter increasing by 35.8%, especially due to the increase in interest overheads due to higher gross debt and a reduction in remuneration on cash investments in reais.

In the light of the high level of exports, the Company conducts operations with the specific purpose of currency hedging. In accordance with hedge accounting standards (CPC 38 and IAS 39), the Company uses financial derivatives (for example: NDF) and non-derivative financial instruments (for example: foreign currency debt) for hedge operations and concomitantly, to eliminate the respective unrealized foreign exchange rate variations from the income statement (under the Financial Expenses line).

The use of non-derivative financial instruments for foreign exchange cover, continues to permit a significant reduction in the net currency exposure in the balance sheet, resulting in substantial benefits through the matching of currency liability flows with export shipments and therefore contributing to a reduction in the volatility of the financial result.

On March 31, 2013, the non-financial derivative instruments designated as hedge accounting for foreign exchange cover amounted to USD 533 million, and a proportional reduction in book currency exposure of the same value. In addition, the financial derivative instruments designated as hedge accounting according to the concept of a cash flow hedge for coverage of highly probable exports, totaled USD 966 million + EUR 150 million + GBP 43.3 million and also contributed directly to the reduction in currency exposure. In both cases, the unrealized result for foreign exchange rate variation was booked to shareholders’ equity, thus avoiding the impact on the Financial Expenses.

The Company’s net debt was R$ 7.2 billion, 1.9% more than reported for December 31, 2012, resulting in a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio (last twelve months) of 2.4 times with a book currency exposure of US$ 388 million, a 6% increase.

Risk Management

BRF and its subsidiaries adopt a series of previously structured measures for maintaining the risks inherent to its businesses under the most rigorous control, details being shown under explanatory note 4 of the Financial Statements. Risks involving the markets in which the Company operates, sanitary controls, grains, nutritional safety and environmental protection as well as internal controls and financial risks are all monitored.

Relationship with the independent auditors

Pursuant to CVM Instruction 381/03, the Company informs that its policy for engaging services unrelated to the external audit is based on principles which preserve the auditor’s independence. In turn, these principles are based on the fact that the independent auditor should not audit its own work, may not exercise managerial functions, should not advocate on behalf of its client or render any other services which are deemed as not permitted under the prevailing norms, in this way maintaining the independence of the work undertaken.

Pursuant to CVM Instruction 480/09, at a meeting held on April 29, 2012, management declares that it has discussed, reviewed and agreed the information expressed in the revision report of the independent auditors and with the quarterly information for the quarter ending March 31, 2013.

SOCIAL REPORT

The Company is a major employer in the agro-industrial sector – more than 80% of its employees are located in small cities –, driving local economies and collaborating with the development of society. The corporate culture’s values and mission are beginning to be disseminated outside Brazil in line with BRF’s enhanced internationalization, thus preparing the Company’s executives to operate in an intercultural environment.

BRF’s human capital incorporates a universe of approximately 115 thousand employees, the Company adopting a policy of internal recruiting and decentralization of the selection process through the individual units. The principal purpose is to attract, select and direct manpower in accordance with profile and potential, hiring those aligned with BRF’s values.

The practice is to prioritize candidates originating from the location where there is a vacancy. In the first quarter, 83% of the vacancies were filled by employees drawn from the Company itself.

Focus on Human Capital

BRF runs development programs for leaders in their various hierarchical levels, such programs including: Formation of Leaders; E-learning for Integration of Leaders; and Leaders Development Program – PDL. In the first quarter of 2013, the Company completed the BRF Performance Cycle which incorporates evaluations of feedback and the recording of the Individual Development Plans for Executives (PDI) to be followed by action plans for implementation in 2013.

*Explanatory Notes*

*(in thousands of Brazilian Reais)*

The Company’s individual quarterly financial information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and for presentation purposes, is identified as “BR GAAP”. Such information differs from IFRS in relation to the evaluation of investments in associates and joint ventures, which were measured and recorded based on the equity pick-up accounting method rather than at cost or fair value, as is required by IFRS.

The Company’s individual and consolidated quarterly financial information are expressed in thousands of Brazilian Reais (“R$”), as well as, the amount of other currencies disclosed in the quarterly financial information, when applicable, were also expressed in thousands.

The preparation of the Company’s quarterly financial information requires Management to make judgments, use estimates and adopt assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosures of contingent liabilities, as of the reporting date of these quarterly financial information. However, the uncertainty inherent to these judgments, assumptions and estimates could lead to results requiring a material adjustment to carrying amount of the affected asset or liability in future periods.

The settlement of the transactions involving such estimates can result in amounts significantly different from those recorded in the quarterly financial information due to the lack of precision inherent to the estimation process. The Company reviews its judgments, estimates and assumptions on a quarterly basis.

The individual and consolidated quarterly financial information were prepared based on the historical cost except for the following material items recognized in the balance sheet:

(i) derivative financial instruments measured at fair value;

(ii) derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through the statement of income;

(iii) financial assets available for sale measured at fair value;

(iv) assets and liabilities of acquired companies from January 1, 2009 recorded initially at fair value; and

(v) share-based payments measured at fair value.

4.4. Determination of the fair value of financial instruments

The Company discloses its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, based on the appropriate accounting pronouncements, which refers to concepts of valuation and practices, and requires certain disclosures on the fair value.

Particularly related to the disclosure, the Company applies the hierarchy requirements set out in CVM Deliberation No. 604/09.

Management concluded that balances of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate to their fair value due to the short-term cycle of these operations.

The book value of financing and loans in the quarterly financial information approximate to the fair value as the major portion of the total gross debt bears interest based on the variation of Long Term Interest Rate (“TJLP”), London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and CDI, except the capital markets transactions (Bond). On March 31, 2013, the fair value adjustment for the Bond (“BRFSBZ”) is represented by a positive impact of R$544,259, which R$70,387 is attributable to Sadia’s Bonds (“BRFSBZ6”), R$292,630 attributable to BFF’s Notes (“BRFSBZ7”) and R$181,242 attributable to BRF’s Notes (“BRFSBZ5”). This impact was measured only for disclosure purposes, not being recorded in the quarterly financial information of the Company.

4.7. Commodity price risk management

During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company utilized derivative instruments to mitigate the exposure to live cattle price variation.

The contracts are recorded at their fair value through the statement of income.

On March 31, 2013, the Company held a short position in the BM&F of 1,739 future contracts (636 contracts as of December 31, 2012) with maturity dates between May and December 2013.

In the counter market, the Company held a short position of 50 contracts with maturity dates in 2013. Additionally, through the utilization of options, the Company held a short position of 700 allotments (450 allotments as of December 31, 2012).

4.8. Table of sensitivity analysis

The Company has financing and loans and receivables denominated in foreign currency and in order to mitigate the risks resulting from exchange rate exposure it contracts and derivative financial instruments.

The Company understands that the current interest rate fluctuations do not significantly affect its financial results since it opted to change to fixed rate a considerable part of its floating interest rates debts by using derivative transactions (interest rates swaps). The Company designates such derivatives as hedge accounting and, therefore, the effectiveness is monitored through prospective and retrospective tests.

Management expects inventories to be recovered in a period shorter than 12 months.

On March 31, 2013, R$44,764 of the total balance of inventories of the parent company and consolidated was pledged as collateral for rural credit operations (R$50,000 as of December 31, 2012).

10. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

The group of biological assets of the Company comprises living animals which are segregated in the following categories: poultry, pork and cattle. In addition, these categories are separated into consumable and for production.

In Management’s opinion, the fair value of the biological assets is substantially represented by the cost of formation, mainly due to the short life cycle of the animals and to the fact that a significant portion of the profitability of the Company’s products derives from the manufacturing process and not from obtaining in natura meat (raw materials at slaughtering point). This opinion is supported by a fair value appraisal report prepared by an independent expert in 2012, which presented an insignificant difference between the two methodologies. Therefore, biological assets are recorded at formation cost.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, Management did not identify any event that could impact the business model or the assumptions utilized in the analysis performed in 2012.

12.2. Estimated time of realization

Deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences will be realized as they are settled our realized. The period of the settlement or realization of such differences is inaccurate and is tied to several factors that are not under Management’s control.

Management estimates that the deferred tax assets originated from tax losses carry forwards and negative basis of social contribution are expected to be realized as set forth below:

BR GAAP BR GAAP and IFRS
Parent company Consolidated
2013 26,178 32,429
2014 37,535 44,294
2015 49,103 54,820
2016 61,176 64,655
2017 74,019 77,814
2018-2020 335,195 340,306
2021-2022 281,941 282,000
865,147 896,318

When assessing the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, Management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible.

Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected taxable income and tax-planning strategies when performing this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income, Management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset is considered realizable, however, could be impacted in the short term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

The rollforward of the deferred tax assets is set forth below:

The Company determined that the total profit accounted for by holdings of their foreign wholly-owned subsidiary will not be redistributed. Such resources will be used for investments in the subsidiaries, and thus no deferred income taxes were recognized. The total of undistributed earnings corresponds to R$1,273,409 as of March 31, 2013 (R$2,223,356 as of December 31, 2012).

*INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON REVIEW OF QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

The Shareholders and Officers

BRF S.A.

Itajaí - SC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of BRF S.A., formerly known as BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. (“Company”), contained in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, which comprise the balance sheet as at March 31, 2013 and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow for the three-month period then ended, including other explanatory information.

Management is responsible for the preparation of individual interim financial information in accordance with Accounting Pronouncement CPC 21 - Demonstração Intermediária (“CPC 21”) and the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with CPC 21 and International Accounting Standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the presentation of this information in a manner consistent with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of the review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 Revisão de Informações Intermediárias Executada pelo Auditor da Entidade ) and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the individual interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual interim financial information included in the quarterly information referred to above is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 applicable to the preparation of quarterly financial information (ITR), consistently with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.
