It looks like CPO's Mexican operations add about $300 M to sales or about 15% of total sales extending into the rest of Central America. So your expectation of 15% downside at worse is on the money at first glance. Actually, in may be even less of an impact, since of the 4 Mexican plants, only 1 has shut down production. I can't imagine the demand for the remainder of the corn milling process, starch products and corn oil to be greatly effected by the tariffs.
Pricing for their products is the biggest problem I see since decreasing pricing of HFCS relative to sucrose is what led to Mexican action of tariffs in the first place. Lastly, CPO has been rapidly expanding into Mexico and Argentina while the Central and South American economies have declined much faster then even they could have expected when they started their expansion over last 3 years.
