institutional markets in the United States. The Company produces approximately 4.1 million hogs per year and processes the majority of the hogs in its own facilities. The Company also sells a portion of the hogs produced (live hogs) to outside third parties. PIGS does not have any firm commitments to sell live hogs to third parties, nor does it hedge its live hogs through commodity futures contracts. There are essentially three major categories of hog inventory—live hogs ready for sale, developing animals, and processed pork products.

As a result, management believes that there is no lower of cost or market issue related to live hogs ready for sale or developing animals that will be internally processed and sold as processed pork products.

Time was up and she asked for the whole class response and everyone responded “ Green…
