Gruma announced today that as of December 31, it will write off the book value of its net indirect investment in Molinos Nacionales (Monaca) and Derivados de Maíz Seleccionado (Demaseca) plants in Venezuela. In a release, the company explained that in light of the considerable depreciation of the Bolivar and Venezuela’s macroeconomic condition, it decided to write off the net indirect investment related to Monaca and Demaseca, and the accounts receivable from certain Monaca subsidiaries. The write-off will result in a non-cash charge of approximately 4.362 billion MXN that will be recorded in December 2015 as “Profit (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net.” “The charge is a virtual budget item, so Gruma’s cash generation will not be affected,” the company added. Gruma had announced that it lost control of Monaca and Demaseca on January 22, 2013, and would no longer report financial information from their operations. However, the company continued to reflect the book value of the net indirect investments on its balance sheet as “Investment in Venezuela available for sale.”
