(1) Reconciliations for non-U.S. GAAP measures are provided in subsequent sections within this release.
(2) This Y/Y change is designated not meaningful (or "NM") due to significant one-time items recognized in prior year.
Throughout the year, commodity cutout values experienced record volatility as markets reached all-time highs in the first half of the year and then suffered an unprecedented decline in value in the second half. Inflation also remained persistent with input costs, including grain, utilities, and labor.
"Although we faced remarkable challenges, our team members were constantly available to explore new opportunities to improve our business and were determined to drive results. This leadership mindset, when coupled with our strategies of portfolio diversification, Key Customer partnerships, and operational excellence, translated into strong growth in net sales and adjusted EBITDA for Pilgrim's," said Fabio Sandri, Chief Executive Officer.
In the U.S., the more stable Case Ready, Small Bird, and Prepared Foods businesses all improved results throughout the quarter, offsetting extraordinary declines in cutout values impacting the commodity segment.
"Our performance in the U.S. highlights the benefits of Key Customer partnerships, diversification across bird sizes as well as branded offerings as means to mitigate dramatic market changes. Even with an extremely challenging Q4, the U.S. grew year to date net sales and adjusted EBITDA compared to last year. To further improve our portfolio and continue our growth, our investments in expansion at our Athens, GA plant, the construction of a protein conversion plant in South Georgia and various automation projects remain on track," remarked Fabio Sandri.
The U.K. and Europe business continued to drive operational excellence through optimization of its manufacturing footprint and further integration of back office support activities. The team also continued to work in partnership with Key Customers to mitigate increased input costs from persistent inflation and generate product innovation.
"I'm continually impressed with the discipline and ownership of our U.K. and Europe team. Their efforts to scale our manufacturing network and consolidate back office support activities creates a solid foundation to realize our growth aspirations and to create value with our Key Customers," said Fabio Sandri.
"The Mexico business faced unique circumstances on live operations and unbalanced market fundamentals throughout the 2nd half of the year which negatively impacted profitability and margins. Nonetheless, the team cultivated Key Customer relationships by maintaining strong service levels under extraordinary conditions. We continue to support the growth of the region," remarked Fabio Sandri.
Pilgrim's was also recognized by external agencies for its improvement in Sustainability as all ESG scores improved throughout the year. Relative to 2021, Pilgrim's has reduced its natural gas usage intensity and electrical usage intensity ahead of its targets.
"I am thoroughly impressed with our progress in Sustainability in 2022, especially as the team simultaneously reduced GHG emission intensity and enhanced operating efficiencies. As such, we can continue to reinvest in our communities, create a better future for our team members, and realize our vision of becoming the best and most respected company in our industry," said Fabio Sandri.

PILGRIM'S PRIDE CORPORATION
Selected Financial Information
(Unaudited)
"EBITDA" is defined as the sum of net income (loss) plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA" is calculated by adding to EBITDA certain items of expense and deducting from EBITDA certain items of income that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance consisting of: (1) foreign currency transaction losses (gains), (2) transaction costs related to business acquisitions, (3) DOJ agreement and litigation settlements, (4) restructuring activities losses, (5) Hometown Strong initiative expenses, (6) charge for fair value markup of acquired inventory, (7) property insurance recoveries for Mayfield, Kentucky tornado property damage losses, (8) deconsolidation of subsidiary, and (9) net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. EBITDA is presented because it is used by management and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of results prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"), to compare the performance of companies. We believe investors would be interested in our Adjusted EBITDA because this is how our management analyzes EBITDA applicable to continuing operations. The Company also believes that Adjusted EBITDA, in combination with the Company's financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on EBITDA and facilitates a more direct comparison of its performance with its competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These limitations should be compensated for by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only on a supplemental basis.

(a) Interest expense, net, consists of interest expense less interest income.
(b) The Company measures the financial statements of its Mexico reportable segment as if the U.S. dollar were the functional currency. Accordingly, we remeasure assets and liabilities, other than nonmonetary assets, of the Mexico reportable segment at current exchange rates. We remeasure nonmonetary assets using the historical exchange rate in effect on the date of each asset's acquisition. Currency exchange gains or losses resulting from these remeasurements, as well as, from our U.K. and Europe reportable segment are included in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation ("Pilgrim's") is calculated by adding to net income attributable to Pilgrim's certain items of expense and deducting from net income attributable to Pilgrim's certain items of income, as shown below in the table. Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation per common diluted share is presented because it is used by management, and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of results prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, to compare the performance of companies. Management also believe that this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, in combination with our financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of such charges on net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation per common diluted share. Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation per common diluted share is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
