NOTE 1: | BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
As a consequence of the application of the unifying accounting standards aproved by the Comisión Nacional de Valores (C.N.V.), which require that consolidated Financial Statements be presented as established by Technical Resolution No. 21 of the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (F.A.C.P.C.E.), the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the Statements of Income and the Statements of Cash Flows for the six-month periods ended on those dates were consolidated on a line by line basis with the financial statements of such companies in which it holds a majority of the voting shares (see Note 1.b to the basic financial statements).
Since December 31, 2006, Cresud S.A. has stopped the application of the proportional consolidation method with Cactus Argentina S.A. (Cactus), due to the reduction of the interest in Cactus from 50% to 24% (see Note 12.c of the basic financial statements).
The financial statements of the subsidiary companies Inversiones Ganaderas S.A., Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A. and Agropecuaria Cervera S.A. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 have been used in order to determine the investment at its equity value and line by line consolidation.
For purposes of comparability, certain reclassifications have been made on the information as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
These Financial Statements and the corresponding notes and schedules are presented in Argentine Pesos.

Therefore, as of such date, there are no differences between the basic and diluted earnings per share.

NOTE 8: | EXAGRIND S.A. ESTANCIA SAN RAFAEL AGAINST TALI SUMAJ AND OTHER DAMAGES AND LOSSES LAWSUIT |
Exagrind S.A. has filed a lawsuit against Inversiones Ganaderas S.A. (IGSA) on claims for damages and losses produced by a fire in Estancia San Rafael, which is close to Tali Sumaj, Province of Catamarca. The fire took place on September 6, 2000.
The estimated amount of the legal action is Ps. 2,914,600 at the date the claim was filed.
In turn, IGSA filed an extraordinary appeal with the High Court of the Province of Catamarca, requesting to be given the remainder term to answer the lawsuit as, at the time of revoking the first instance judge decision that postponed the terms to answer until a new notice was dispatched, such period had not yet expired. The management of IGSA is awaiting the decision of the High Court of the Province of Catamarca.
Additionally, in March 2007 -under the request of Exagrind S.A.- the court in charge of the case seized an inhibition of assets. This measure was lifted in June 2007 and a real estate on attachment has been accepted in replacement.

NOTE 9: | ACQUISITIONS AND SALES OF FARMS |
a) | On September 3, 2007, a deferral of payment for US$ 1,449,726 plus US$ 103,454 in interest was signed for the purchase of the establishment San Pedro. The new payment date is September 1, 2008 accruing interest at 7% per annum on unpaid balance. |
b) | On October 22, 2007, it was deemed of sales for 4,974 hectares of the farm Los Pozos was signed. The transaction was agreed upon at US$ 1,119,217. To date, US$ 1,019,217 was collected. The balances of USD 100,000 should be collected by August 21, 2008, plus interest at LIBOT plus 6%. This sale generated income for about US$ 1.03 (in millions). |
c) | On December 17, 2007, it was signed the agreement of sale for the remaining undivided 25% of 72 hectares of the establishment La Adela (18 hectares). The transaction was agreed upon at USD 143,020, which was paid upon executing the agreement. With such acquisition, the establishment La Aldea has 1054 hectares. |
d) | On December 27, 2007, the agreement of sale with possession for 2,471 hectares of the establishment La Esmeralda was signed. This property has been valued at net realization value as the conditions established by RT 17 apply, hence recognizing income for about USD 5.2 million. |
NOTE 10: | RESTRICTED ASSETS |
In agreement with Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, on June 4, 2007 a pre-judgement attachment was seized on the Tali Sumaj land owned by IGSA in substitution for a more burdensome measure that had been previously ordered.
On May 2, 2006, a loan agreement for USD 8 million was executed with Crédit Suisse, which imposes some restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. Under this loan agreement falling due on November 2, 2008, we are not allowed to pay dividends or make other restricted payments (including the purchase or redemption of our capital stock) in cash, obligations or other assets, for a total amount not exceeding USD 5 million in any calendar year.
NOTE 11: | PRINCIPAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ARGENTINE GAAP AND US GAAP FOR TRANSACTIONS OCCURRED IN THE SIX-MONTHS PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 |
| Reversal of the result from valuation of inventories at net realizable value |
As discussed in footnote d) of Note 9 the Company signed an agreement of sale with possession for 2,471 hectares of the establishment La Esmeralda. The pending transfer deed of this agreement has not been consummated at period-end. However, as the Company received payments in advance that fixed the sales price and the terms and conditions of the contract assure the closing of the transaction and the realization of the gain, under Argentine GAAP the Company valued this inventory at net realizable value. As a result, the Company recognized a gain of Ps. 17.4 million during the six-month period ended December 31, 2007. Under US GAAP, because inventories are valued at acquisition cost and the sale has not been consummated, the gain recognized under Argentine GAAP should be reversed.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Corresponding to the six-month periods beginning as from July 1, 2007 and 2006
and ended on December 31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE 1: | ACCOUNTING STANDARDS |
Below is a description of the most relevant accounting standards used by the Company in the preparation of these Financial Statements, which have been applied on a consistent basis from the previous period.
a. | Presentation standards |
These financial statements are stated in Argentine Pesos (Ps.), and have been prepared in accordance with the disclosure and valuation accounting standards contained in the Technical Resolutions issued by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (F.A.C.P.C.E.), as approved, with resolutions issued by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (C.P.C.E.C.A.B.A.) and the Comisión Nacional de Valores (C.N.V.).
b. | Unifying of accounting standards |
On July 8, 2004, the F.A.C.P.C.E. and the C.P.C.E.C.A.B.A. entered into an agreement with the purpose of unifying technical standards. The latter council issued Resolution CD 93/05 on August 10, 2005 adopting the accounting standards approved by the former including the changes up to April 1, 2005.
The standards referred to above became effective for annual or interim periods financial statements of years started on January 1, 2006. On the other hand, the C.N.V. has adopted the same standards including certain modifications, and has also established their applicability for the years started as from January 1, 2006 as well.
The changes introduced due to the unifying of accounting standards that have generated significant effects on the Company´s financial statements are:
| In accordance with the new accounting standards, the Company has decided not to recognize the deferred liabilities generated by the adjustment for inflation on fixed assets and other non-monetary assets. Consequently, additional information on this issue is stated in Note 6. |
| The balance of the Transitory Convertion Differences account has to be shown in the statement of changes in stockholders´ equity as from the time the unifying accounting standards became effective. |
The financial statements for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 have not been audited. The Company´s management estimates that such statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present the income accounts of each period, which do not necessarily show the proportion of the Company´s profits and losses for the entire fiscal years.
c. | The effects of inflation |
The financial statements have been prepared in constant currency units by recognizing the effects of inflation up to August 31, 1995. As from this date and up to December 31, 2001 the restatement of the financial statements has been discontinued due to that period of monetary stability. As from January 1, 2002 and up to March 2003 the effects of inflation were recognized as it was an inflationary period. As from such date, in accordance with Resolution 441

SUMMARY as of December 31, 2007
Buenos Aires, February 11, 2008 - Cresud S.A.C.I.F. y A. (Nasdaq: CRESY BCBA: CRES), one of the leading agricultural companies in Argentina, announces today its results for the first six months of fiscal 2008 ended December 31, 2007.
Results for the first six months of fiscal 2008 showed net income for Ps. 14.5 million compared to a Ps. 17.0 million profit posted the same period of the previous fiscal year.
Consolidated sales for the period amounted to Ps. 68.1 million, 64.5% higher than those posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year.
Gross profit during the first six months of fiscal year 2008 amounted to Ps. 17.6 million as compared to the Ps.7.4 million gross profit posted in the same period of the previous year.
Operating revenues for the six months ended on December 31, 2007 showed a Ps. 22.4 million profit, compared to the Ps. 0.4 million loss posted in the same period of the previous fiscal year. This difference is mainly due to the fact that in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 the Company recorded income as a result of the sale of 4,974 hectares in the Los Pozos farm and that the valuation of other assets was adjusted to their net realization value as from the execution of the preliminary sales agreement upon conveyance of possession of 2,471 hectares at the La Esmeralda farm.
Results from related companies showed income for Ps. 9.0 million, 60.8% lower than in the same period of fiscal 2007, mainly as a consequence of our interest as of December 31, 2007 in IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S.A.

Summary of operations
Crops
Crops sales for the six months totaled Ps. 35.1 million, compared to sales for Ps. 13.2 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year. The volume of crops sold was 65,853 tons at an average price per ton of Ps. 541.3 compared to the 31,256 tons sold and the average price of Ps. 423.5 for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The increase in tons sold is mainly due to the higher levels of crop inventories at the beginning of the first period of fiscal 2008 and the 52.8% increase in production, which rose from 19,744 tons for the first six months of fiscal 2007 to 30,176 tons for the same period in fiscal 2008. In turn, income from production reached a total of Ps. 12.8 million, 95% higher than the income from production obtained in fiscal 2007 for the same six months.
The stock of crops as of the end of the six months totaled 39,090 tons, 16,802 of which were wheat and 12,080 were corn. The remaining tons were soybean, barley and sorghum.
As of December 31, 2007, 80.4% of the surface area planted with wheat was harvested. The other crops show very good conditions.
Gross results in the segment for the period ended December 31, 2007 were a Ps. 5.0 million profit, compared to a Ps. 1.9 million loss for the same period of the previous fiscal year.
For the current season we have allocated 62,783 hectares to agriculture, 31,174 of which are leased from third parties and 5,148 are operated under concessions. Compared to the previous fiscal year, we have increased the number of total hectares allocated to agriculture by 10,268.
In our operations in Argentina, the weather had an adverse effect on the next harvest. Both the frosts fallen in mid-November in the center south region of the Province of Buenos Aires and in La Pampa, as well as the drought caused by the meteorological phenomenon known as La Niña sustained in January 2008 in the center region of Argentina affected the agricultural season. Although there was an increase in the planted surface area for this season when compared to the previous season, there is a likelihood that the volumes harvested for the 2007/2008 season will not exceed the unprecedented volumes harvested in the 2006/2007 season. This notwithstanding, Cresuds prospects for fiscal 2008 are promising thanks to the diversification of land and crops, the technological breakthroughs adopted in the farms to increase yields plus the rise in the prices of crops. The combination of all these factors shall contribute to maintaining profitability in the business.
In November 2007, the Argentine National Government increased the withholdings imposed on exports of soybeans and its by-products (from 27.5% to 35%), wheat (from 20% to 28%) and corn (from 20 to 25%). However, this increase was offset by the major increase in the prices of crops, which allowed us to maintain high levels of profitability. Prospects are still firm in an environment where international markets continue to exert pressure on the demand side which in turn increases the prices of crops.
In early 2008, the Secretariat of Agriculture of Argentina decided to re-open the registries of exports of corn and wheat which had been closed for more than a year in the case of corn and for two months in the case of wheat. The registries will be opened on a controlled, stepwise manner. This decision will lead to an improvement in the prices collected by farmers, allow the grains markets to regain their normal conditions of operation and endow them with increased competitiveness.

Beef Cattle
As of December 31, 2007, the Companys cattle stock was 89,593 head with a total of 130,395 hectares allocated to beef cattle activities.
Beef cattle sales were at levels similar to those in the previous fiscal year, from Ps. 15.4 million as of December 31, 2006 to Ps. 14.7 million as of December 31, 2007. In the first six months of the fiscal year under analysis sales were closed for 5,956 tons, whereas during the first-half of fiscal 2007 sales in tons had amounted to 6,696.
The gross result from the beef cattle segment was Ps. 5.0 million, compared to the Ps. 3.5 million profit posted in the first six months of the previous fiscal year, which points to a 40% improvement.
Beef cattle output was 4,689 tons, which entailed a 9.8% drop compared to the previous fiscal year. The drop in output volumes was mainly due to the de-consolidation of Cactus Argentina S.A. resulting from the reduction in our interest from 50% to 24%, compared to the proportional consolidation of such company during the first six months of fiscal 2007.
At the international level, beef cattle prices strengthened during 2007 as a result of the slow recovery in demand. The European Union has recently closed its borders to Brazilian beef cattle due to health-related concerns, which measure contributed even more to the rise in prices. The restriction in supply on top of the continued increase in demand is expected to strengthen the international prices of beef cattle in the short term.
Milk
Milk production increased by 22.0% in the six months, from 8.9 million liters as of December 31, 2006 to 10.8 million as of December 31, 2007. This increase was mainly due to the startup of production in the new dairy facility located in our La Juanita farm, which increased its milking capacity to 1,800 cows, and the higher efficiency rate of the daily average milk production per head.
Sales for the six months totaled Ps. 9.0 million, 94.6% in excess of the sales posted in fiscal 2007 for the same six months. The increase in sales is due both to the rise in production and to the rise in the average price of the liter of milk.
During the first six months of fiscal 2007 we had 6,615 cattle head in 2,376 hectares allocated to milk production, whereas in the current period the number of head rose to 7,537 over 3,723 hectares. On average, there are 3,116 milking cows per day, 16.9% higher than for the same period of the previous year.
Gross income went from a Ps. 1.9 million profit in the first six months of fiscal 2007, to a Ps. 3.1 million profit in the same six months of fiscal 2008.
At present, the Companys dairy facilities are located in the La Juanita farm and in El Tigre, a dairy farm equipped with state-of-the-art technology.
Purchase and Sale of farms
In December 2007 we signed the preliminary sales agreement for the remaining undivided 25% interest over the 72 hectares of the La Adela farm in the Province of Buenos Aires. The price of the transaction was agreed at US$ 0.1 million, which were paid at the time of execution. As a result of that acquisition, the La Adela farms totals 1,054 hectares.

In November 2007, we signed the sales deed for 4,974 hectares in the Los Pozos farm in the Province of Salta. The price of the transaction was agreed at US$ 1.1 million, i.e. US$ 225 per hectare. As of December 30, 2007 the amount of US$ 1.0 million was collected and the balance, equal to US$ 0.1 million must be collected in August 2008 plus a basis interest rate equivalent to the Libor rate +6%. This sale yielded an approximate result of US$ 1.0 million. It must be highlighted that the Company had the parcel sold valued in its books at US$ 7.0 per hectare.
In December 2007, we signed a preliminary sales contract with transfer of possession over 2,471 hectares in the La Esmeralda farm in the Province of Santa Fe. This parcel has been measured at its net realization value, and income for approximately US$ 5.2 million has been recognized. The Company had booked this parcel at a value of US$ 309 per hectare, whereas the price of the transaction was agreed at US$ 2,549 per hectare.
Development of marginal lands
We consider the potential offered by the sector to lie on the development of marginal areas, as has been the case in various countries worldwide. With current state-of-the-art technology, similar yields can be obtained with larger profits than those registered in core areas.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, we continued with the development of our Los Pozos farm located in the Province of Salta, which is expected to reach a total net surface area of 63,000 hectares of prairies sown by the end of fiscal year 2008. Progress was also made in the development of Agropecuaria Cervera S.A., which will add 6,000 hectares for agricultural production by the end of fiscal year 2008.
As of December 31, 2007 Cresud had own land reserves amounting to 314,405 hectares that were purchased at very attractive prices, and 151,648 hectares in lands under concession. The own land reserves include 90,000 hectares of the 8 de Julio farm, in the Province of Santa Cruz, which will be allocated to wool production during this fiscal year. We are convinced that with the development of these areas and the aid of technological breakthroughs, the value of land will show an upward trend that will result in significant revenues for the company.

Cactus Argentina S.A.
Cactus Argentina S.A., our feedlot and slaughtering facility operator in which we hold a 24.0% interest, continued consolidating its growth and playing a major role in our Companys cattle beef production.
During these six months, Cactus Argentina S.A. recorded a gross profit of Ps. 2.9 million. In addition, its net income for the quarter was Ps. 0.5 million.
Cactus Argentina S.A. is the only Argentine company with vertical integration in the cattle beef industry. The feedlot cattle beef production is processed in the companys packing plant for the Argentine and export markets. Feedlot cattle beef production with a corn-based diet has been growing at a very dynamic pace. The company has gained a reputation in the market due to the uniform final product that results from feedlot animals, which allows it to offer high-quality products along with higher sales prices.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the General Extraordinary Unanimous Shareholders Meeting of Cactus Argentina S.A. approved a capital increase of US$ 3,0 million, that was fully subscribed for and paid in by the shareholders in November 2007. Therefore, there have been no changes in the companys capital structure.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the administrative authorities of Villa Mercedes, San Luis, where the feedlot is located, ordered the removal of the feedlot from its current premises. As a result of the judicial actions implemented by Cactus, the above judicial measure providing for the closure of the feedlot was lifted.

Results from IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S.A.
The net income of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones (NYSE: IRS BASE: IRSA) for the six months ended on December 31, 2007 totaled Ps. 5.8 million compared to income for Ps. 66.1 million as recorded for the same period of fiscal 2007. It must be noted that in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, losses were booked for Ps. 30.0 million, which means that this quarter IRSA was able to generate income sufficient to offset losses in cumulative terms. In addition, this reduction in income for the period compared to the previous fiscal year is not due to factors inherent in the operations of the various business segments but to results outside such operations, such as an increase in financial expenses and losses sustained by other companies. The result recorded is mainly due to the following:
Operating income increased by 35.5%, from Ps. 104.7 million as of December 31, 2006, to Ps. 141.9 million, as of December 31, 2007. This increase was mainly driven by the improved performance in income, which grew by 45.9% totaling Ps. 496.6 million compared to Ps. 340.3 million booked in the first six months of fiscal 2007. The share of each segment in the net sales was as follows: sales and development, Ps. 63.0 million, offices and other lease properties Ps. 44.8 million, shopping centers Ps. 172.6 million, hotels Ps. 76.0 million, credit cards Ps. 139.9 million and financial operations and others Ps. 0.3 million.
Results from related companies showed a loss of Ps. 9.1 million compared to a profit of Ps. 15 million in the same period of fiscal year 2007. This is due mainly to IRSAs interest in Banco Hipotecario, which had sustained extraordinary losses in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, which were partially offset with income during the second quarter of fiscal 2008.
As regards financial results, they amounted to a loss of Ps. 54.9 million compared to a Ps. 12.3 million profit for the same six months of fiscal year 2007. On one hand, this is explained by the fact that financial transactions sustained losses due mainly to the decrease in the fair value of our shares in mutual funds. On the other hand, the Notes (Negotiable Obligations) issued by IRSA and APSA in fiscal year 2007 accrued interest as reflected in an increase in financing expenses.
IRSA is Argentinas leading real estate company, with a totally diversified portfolio of properties. IRSA operates in the following business segments:
| Office rental and other properties with more than 250,143 sqm. of premium offices for lease. |
| Operation of Shopping Centers through its 62.5% equity interest in Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA) (Nasdaq: APSA, BASE: APSA). APSA is one of the leading operators of shopping centers in Argentina and it owns or holds a majority shareholding in 10 shopping centers with 260,991 sqm gross leaseable area. |
| Holding and operation of luxury hotels through its equity interest in 3 five-star hotels. |

Besides, IRSA owns residential properties for sale and land reserves for current and future developments appraised at Ps. 460.9 million.
Additionally, IRSA holds 11.76% of Banco Hipotecarios capital stock. BHSA is the leading Argentine mortgage bank, with a net worth amounting to Ps. 2,601.4 million. This amount has been calculated in accordance with Professional Accounting Standards.
IRSAs Total Consolidated Assets amount to Ps. 4,155 million and its net worth amounts to Ps. 1,875 million.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 Cresud exercised its residual holding of IRSAs warrants which amounted to 12,458,011 for US$ 15 million, for which it obtained 22,858,735 shares. As a result of the exercise of warrants, share purchases and additional ADRs, our interest in IRSA as of December 31, 2007, was 34.6% of its total outstanding shares.

Financial Debt
As a result of the excellent investment opportunities seized in the course of the previous fiscal year, such as our ownership interest in BrasilAgro, the acquisition of farms and the increasing amount of our investments in NW Argentina during the current fiscal year, we have incurred indebtedness at levels higher than those incurred in previous fiscal years, totaling as of December 31, 2007 indebtedness in the amount of Ps. 215.2 million.
Such indebtedness is composed of a loan granted by Credit Suisse for the purpose of financing our investment in BrasilAgro for Ps. 25.2 million and Ps. 36.6 million for the purpose of financing our crop production, while the balance, i.e. Ps. 153.4 million is concentrated in the short term.
For the coming fiscal years, we intend to match these maturities to the Companys cash flows and do not rule out a reduction in the indebtedness as a result of future cash inflows arising from our ordinary business, the sale of assets or the proceeds of our capital stock increase.
The exchange rate considered for US$-denominated loans was US$ 1 = Ps. 3.1490, corresponding to the selling exchange rate published by Banco de la Nación Argentina prevailing as of December 31, 2007.
Type of indebtedness |
Currency | Amount (Million) | Term | |||
Short-term |
Ps. | 153.4 | Up to 180 days | |||
Crop production financing |
Ps. | 36.6 | From 175 to 365 days | |||
Long Term |
Ps. | 25.2 | Less than 1 year |
Issuance of Shares
On October 10, 2007, the Companys General Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting approved a capital stock increase through the issuance of up to 180 million new shares of common stock. In turn, the Shareholders Meeting approved the issuance of warrants to subscribe shares in the Companys common stock which may be exercised by those who subscribed the capital stock increase free of charge. The warrants entitle subscribing shareholders to one share every three subscribed shares.
We are planning to implement this procedure in the very near future, subject to us identifying the best market situation to move forward with it in line with the recommendation by our financial advisors. The dramatic increase in the prices of commodities supports our marginal land revaluation strategy, also evidenced by its major positive impact on Cresuds portfolio and therefore, on the appreciation potential of Cresuds shares.
An amount ranging from US$ 100 to US$ 200 million of the proceeds shall be applied to financing our main businesss growth through new investments in agricultural activities in Latin America and marginally in other countries to the extent such investments are consistent with our business strategy. In turn, we are planning to finance additional investments in IRSA through purchases in the market of outstanding shares and/or the exercise of preemptive and accretion rights issued in relation to future capital increases in IRSA. We are also planning to apply approximately US$ 40 million to meeting working capital needs and to other general corporate purposes.

Prospects for the coming quarter
International and Argentine economic conditions continue to lead the agricultural sector and our Company towards a position favorable to taking advantage of opportunities that may arise in the market.
Prospects for the coming quarter are highly promising; crops are at historical highs and there is consensus in the market regarding the fact that these prices will remain high for a long period, as they are driven by sound growth in demand and are therefore not likely to change significantly in the short and medium term. Consequently, we expect an increase in our profitability.
As regards the cattle beef business, our strategy for the next quarter is to continue to increase output and to focus on vertical integration by slaughtering our own cattle and exporting on behalf of third parties.
As regards the milk business, we shall continue to expand this business in order to take advantage of the excellent opportunities currently offered by the market. Besides, we are analyzing the possibility of growing in the milk production chain with by-products.
As regards land, in the future, we will continue to keep a watch out for opportunities that may arise in the land purchase and sale market. The development of marginal land will also intensify.
Prospects in the agribusiness are highly appealing. In our understanding, companies such as Cresud, with a lengthy track record and vast expertise in the sector, will have outstanding possibilities of taking advantage of the best opportunities arising in the market.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. |
2. | We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by Technical Resolution N° 7 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences for limited reviews of financial statements. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. |
3. | Based on our work and our examinations of the financial statements of this Company and the consolidated financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, on which we issued our unqualified report dated July 30, 2007, we report that: |

b) The comparative information included in the basic and consolidated balance sheets and the suplementary notes and schedules to the attached financial statements arise from Company financial statements at June 30, 2007.

4. | In accordance with current regulations, we report that: |
a) the financial statements of Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria and its consolidated financial statements are being transcribed to the Inventory and Balance Sheet Book and comply, within the field of our competence, with the Corporations Law and pertinent resolutions of the National Securities Commission;
b) the financial statements of Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria arise from official accounting records carried in all formal respects in accordance with legal requirements, that maintain the security and integrity conditions based on which they were authorized by the National Securities Commission;
c) we have read the business highlights and the additional information to the notes to the financial statements required by section 68 of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Regulations, on which, as regards those matters that are within our competence, we have no observations to make;
d) At December 31, 2007, the debt of Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria accrued in favor of the Integrated Pension and Survivors Benefit System according to the accounting records amounted to Ps. 319,471, none of which was claimable at that date.
