CURITIBA, Brazil, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- America Latina Logistica S.A. - ALL (Bovespa: ALLL11), Latin America's largest independent logistics company, announces its results for the third quarter of 2009 (3Q09) and nine months of 2009 (9M09).

    --  ALL Brazil's volume grew 10.3% in 9M09 to 27,593 million RTK. In 3Q09,
        Brazil rail volumes rose 11.4%, to 10,065 million RTK, pushed by a 13.1%
        growth in agricultural commodities and a 7.2% increase in industrial
        products.
    --  Average yield decreased 2.9% in Brazil, from R$76.8 per thousand RTK in
        9M08 to R$74.6 per thousand RTK in 9M09, mainly driven by weak freight
        prices in the spot market and the contractual diesel pass through of the
        significant price reduction realized by Petrobras in June. In 3Q09,
        average yield decreased 6.5% in Brazil reflecting a full quarter of
        lower diesel prices and higher volumes of return cargo, partially offset
        by an increase in trucking drayage service volumes.
    --  ALL Brazil's EBITDA  increased 2.2% in 9M09 to R$975.6 million, driven
        by higher rail volumes and market share gains partially offset by lower
        yields and margins
    --  Total subscription in ALL's Private Offering of Convertible Debentures
        reached more than R$1.2 billion, during the preemptive rights
        subscription period ended in November 3rd. Controlling Shareholders
        subscribed a total of 3.8 million Debentures, equivalent of R$464.6
        million, to be converted in common shares with a 3 years lock-up-period.
        Total Leftovers amounted R$61.9 million and can be subscribed until
        November 13th.

    --  First estimates indicate a very positive market scenario for 2010. Total
        grain crop in our coverage region is expected to grow 9.3% in 2010 as
        compared to 2009. Industrial production is expected to grow 6.5% in
        2010. The signs for a recovery in yields are very positive for 2010.

Full information is available on the ALL's IR website:

www.all-logistica.com/ir
