2 RESULTS BY SEGMENT (4Q08 vs. 4Q07): Passenger Transport Service revenue increased 0.2% to Ps million, mainly due to a 14.9% increase in operating volume and a 12.8% decrease in RPKs. Operating income decreased 83.3% to Ps million due to the aforementioned decrease in RPKs. Personnel Transport Service revenue decreased 4.4% to Ps million, primarily due to a 9.1% decrease in RPKs. Operating income decreased 63.2% to Ps. 9.0 million. Comments from the Chief Executive Officer: During 2008, Senda reached its passenger volume objectives. Despite the current global economic situation, the Company has been able to maintain growth and overcome the difficult market environment. EBITDA, however, was affected by competitive pressure, fuel increases throughout the year, as well as the devaluation of the Mexican Peso versus the U.S. Dollar. In the fourth quarter of 2008, revenues declined 0.7% and for the twelve-month period, the Company experienced a 4.5% increase as a result of its bus ticket price discount strategy, which yielded rapid market share growth in Central Mexico routes. Senda achieved steady sales growth in 2008 and looking ahead to 2009, the Company expects to continue its market share growth strategy in Central Mexico, as well as on route expansion into the U.S. market. During 2008, cost per kilometer increased 2.9% compared to 2007, mainly due to higher inflation levels, fuel price increases and the Company s growth strategies that generate expenses related to additional revenues. However, during the fourth quarter of 2008, cost per kilometer declined 1.1% compared to 2007 as a result of additional operating volume, as well as lower maintenance expenses, resulting from investments made in bus security and image enhancement in previous quarters. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had a very strong position in terms of liquidity. Senda s balance of cash and equivalents at year end reached million pesos, including available working capital credit lines. At the same time, 2009 debt amortizations were in-line with Senda s expected cash generation levels. Furthermore, Senda does not possess any U.S. Dollar amortization until 2015, nor does the Company have any exposure to derivative instruments. Looking forward, during the coming months, the Company expects the continuation of a difficult market environment, including the current global recession and challenging industry dynamics, which are similar to what we experienced in 2008 and will impact operations. However, the Company expects such effects will be partially offset by the continued implementation of a contingency plan based on substantial cost reductions through operating synergies, headcount adjustments and improved logistics. OPERATING RESULTS Total Revenue For the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, total revenue increased 4.5%, from Ps. 2,968.4 million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps. 3,101.1 million as of December 31, 2008, primarily due to a 8.1% increase in operating volume resulting from service expansion in high potential growth markets in Central Mexico, as well as international routes, and a 13.5% increase in total transported passengers. Page 2 of 13

3 Total revenue decreased 0.7%, from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008, mainly due to an 11.9% decrease in RPKs. The decline in RPK s was due to discounted ticket prices on certain important routes, which was positively offset by a 12.7% increase in operating volume, primarily related to the expansion of operations in high market value routes in Central Mexico, as well as a 14.0% increase of transported passengers. During the fourth quarter 2008, 80.9% of total revenue was derived from passenger transportation services, including 5.6% from the package delivery services business; the remaining 19.1% was derived from the personnel transportation services business. Operating Expenses For the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, total operating expenses increased 11.2%, from Ps. 2,538.8 million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps. 2,823.2 million as of December 31, 2008, 35.4% of this variation was due to an 8.1% increase in operating volume. The remaining 65.6% was due to a 2.9% increase in cost per kilometer. 54.4% of the increase in cost per kilometer resulted from higher inflation, while 11.6% of the variation stems from the 25.2% increase in kilometers in the U.S., which are 48.2% more expensive than domestic kilometers. 33.2% of the cost per kilometer increase was derived from brand positioning expenses, 17.5% from the bus security and image enhancement campaign, 14.1% was attributable to the above-mentioned fuel price increase and 7.3% was related to an increase in operating leases. These increases were positively offset by lower bus maintenance costs, resulting from the bus security and image enhancement strategy implemented by Senda during the first nine months of 2008, as well as increased efficiency in garage operations and administrative expense reductions. Total operating expenses increased 11.5%, from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008 due to a 12.7% increase in operating volume and a 1.1% decrease in cost per kilometer, primarily driven by the aforementioned cost reductions and efficiencies. The Company is making substantial progress in lowering controllable costs. During the fourth quarter of 2008, costs associated with the Company s security and image enhancement campaign ended, resulting in significant savings in bus maintenance costs. Following are some of the key operating costs: Transportation costs include driver wages and compensation, maintenance of equipment, toll fees, driver travel expenses, insurance and bus operating lease costs, among others. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, transportation costs increased 10.7% from Ps. 1,181.5 million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008, mainly due to an increase in operating volume, which represents 50.8% of the variation, a general cost increase of 6.5% (inflation rate), which represents 55.3%, and to the bus security and image improvement strategy, which represents a net effect of 4.0% of the variation. The total transportation cost increase was also offset by the aforementioned garage operations efficiency enhancement, which led to a 53.4% decline in fixed transportation costs compared to This reduction offset the total variation in transportation costs by 18.0%. For the fourth quarter of 2008, transportation costs increased 0.7% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008, mainly due to a 12.7% increase in operating volume and an increase of bus leases and insurance, which were Page 3 of 13

4 substantially offset by the aforementioned cost and expense reductions, as well as garage operations efficiency. Fuel costs increased 20.9% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008, primarily due to the aforementioned 8.1% increase in operating volume and a net 11.8% price increase due to the 23.8% increase in Mexican diesel fuel during 2008, and a marginal impact derived from the 16.5% average increase in U.S. diesel prices. For the fourth quarter of 2008, fuel costs increased 37.3% to Ps million, primarily due to a 12.7% increase in operating volume and to the aforementioned net impact on the Company s fuel prices. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 11.0% from Ps million as of December 31, 2008 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008, mainly due to commercial strategies consisting of additional advertising expenses and the strengthening of the sales force, focused on brand positioning in the newly entered markets in the Central Region of Mexico. For the fourth quarter of 2008, selling general and administrative expenses increased 22.1% to Ps million, primarily explained by an exceptional positioning effort that consisted of a strong marketing campaign, and the reinforcement of the sales force based on higher ticket sales volume. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 0.1% from Ps million as of December 31, 2008 to Ps million as of December 31, For the fourth quarter of 2008, depreciation and amortization expense decreased 2.1% to Ps million. Operating Income As a result of the above, operating income decreased 35.3% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, The operating margin also decreased from 14.5% as of December 31, 2007 to 9.0% as of December 31, On a quarterly basis, operating income decreased 78.6% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008, while the operating margin also decreased from 13.5% in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 2.9% in the fourth quarter of EBITDA Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) decreased 19.8% from Ps as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, EBITDA margin also decreased from 25.7% as of December 31, 2007 to 19.7% as of December 31, On a quarterly basis, EBITDA decreased 44.7% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of EBITDA margin also decreased from 24.3% in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 13.5% in the fourth quarter of Integral Financing Cost Page 4 of 13

5 Integral Financing Cost (IFC) increased 230.1% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008, mainly due to a non-cash effect related to the 24.6% depreciation of the Mexican peso, which generated a foreign exchange loss on dollar-denominated debt of Ps million. The remainder of the variation results from monetary position gains on debt related to inflation that are no longer registered according to Mexican Financial Reporting Standards. On a quarterly basis, the integral financing cost increased 821.2% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008, mainly due to the aforementioned reasons.

(552.2) million net loss as of December 31, On a quarterly basis, consolidated net income decreased 8,823.9% from a net loss of Ps. (4.9) million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to a net loss of Ps. (493.5) million in the fourth quarter of RESULTS BY SEGMENT Passenger Transport Services The passenger transportation segment includes passenger transportation and package delivery services. Passenger transport is a ticketed, intercity, scheduled bus transportation service. The package delivery business is developed primarily through the use of excess storage capacity on passenger bus routes, terminals and sales and administrative office infrastructure. Revenues from passenger transportation services increased 3.8% from Ps. 2,417.4 million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps. 2,509.3 million as of December 31, 2008 due to a 9.3% increase in operating volume resulting from an increase in service in high potential growth markets in the Central Region of Mexico such as Mexico Guadalajara, Mexico San Luis Potosí, Mexico Leon, Mexico Queretaro, Mexico Durango, Cuidad Juarez Durango, Durango Chihuahua, Mexico Torreon, Page 5 of 13

6 Mexico Toluca, among others, as well as in international routes. Transported passengers during 2008 in the Central Region of Mexico grew 45.1% and 16.4% on international routes. The Company has been expanding service and, as a result, experienced accelerated market share increases on high-value Central Mexico routes. This growth was also the result of a 20% increase in market share at Transportes del Norte as of December 31, 2004 to 49% as of December 31, On a quarterly basis, revenues from the passenger transportation segment increased 0.1% from Ps million for the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million for the fourth quarter of 2008 due to a 14.9% increase in operating volume related to the aforementioned increase in service in high potential growth markets and a 12.8% decrease in RPKs. The decrease in RPKs results primarily from the start of operations on the aforementioned routes, which normally begin with relatively low passenger loads and from price discounts related to current industry dynamics. For this period, transported passengers increased 67.9% in the Central Region of Mexico and 8.9% on international routes. New routes initiated during the fourth quarter of 2008 within the international segment included: Austin Piedras Negras, and San Luis Potosi Houston. Operating income from passenger transportation services decreased 44.4% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008, mainly due to the aforementioned cost increase, which resulted from inflation and operating volume increases that represented more than 60% of the variation, as well as other expenses such as brand positioning efforts, the bus security and image enhancement strategy and diesel price increases. On a quarterly basis, operating income from passenger transportation services decreased 83.3% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2008 primarily due to the aforementioned increases in costs, as well as the decrease in RPKs related to the current industry dynamics.

7 Personnel Transportation Services Personnel transportation services consist of contracted intra-city services to transport personnel and students to industrial and educational facilities. Revenues from personnel transportation services increased 7.4% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008 due to a 4.0% increase in operating volume and a 3.2% increase in RPKs. This resulted from enhanced asset utilization, particularly in the Saltillo, Reynosa and San Luis Potosí markets. However, the personnel transportation segment was affected by the current global economic situation. On a quarterly basis, revenues from personnel transport services decreased 4.4% from Ps million to Ps million due to a 5.2% increase in operating volume and 9.1% decrease in RPKs, which kept operating volume steady despite the slowdown due to macroeconomic reasons. Operating income from personnel transportation services decreased 7.2% from Ps million as of December 31, 2007 to Ps million as of December 31, 2008 due to the previously mentioned increases in operating volume, partially offset by the aforementioned reduction in RPKs and cost and expense increases related to significant inflation, spare part cost increases and higher fuel costs. On a quarterly basis, operating income from personnel transportation services decreased 63.2% from Ps million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to Ps. 9.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 mainly due to a 9.1 decrease in RPK as a consequence of the reasons explained above.
