1Mexican pesos per ADR
2Dividends from 2004 to 2005 were declared in Mexican pesos. However, ADR holders electing cash received the dividend in U.S. dollars. These amounts represent the approximate U.S. dollar amount distributed to ADR holders. Dividends in 2006 and 2008 were declared in U.S. dollars.
Our board of directors will continue to base their recommendation whether to continue to pay dividends and the amount of those dividends on, among other things, our earnings, cash flow, capital requirements, financial condition, and other relevant factors.
