KYIV, UKRAINE - AVANGARDCO INVESTMENTS PUBLIC LIMITED (LSE: AVGR) (the "Company" or "Avangard"), the leading producer of shell eggs and egg products in Ukraine, today announces its trading update for the nine months ending 30 September 2010.

Note: This press release includes the data for the first nine months of the current year without comparison to the same period last year because the Company did not publish results for this period prior to the IPO in May 2010.

Shell Egg Segment

During the first nine months of 2010 Avangard produced 2,968 million shell egg pieces. As of 30 September 2010 the Company's total flock was 20.7 million birds.

The average sale price for eggs stood at UAH 0.48 (excluding VAT) per egg in the first nine months of 2010. The Company expects the growth in egg prices to continue until the end of the year given the fact that the price for eggs in Q4 is traditionally high. Shell egg sales to external consumers totalled 2,669 million pieces.

During the period the Company continued to execute its strategy of focusing on the development of its customer base. As a result, in Q32010 the share of the Company's sales volume through modern retailers increased to 17% of the Company's total shell eggs sales volume.
