EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 
APSIS CONSULTORIA EMPRESARIAL Ltda. was hired by TEQUIMAR and by ULTRAPAR to calculate the net profit value of the shares of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON, in order to assess the applicability of Article 256, II, c), of Act no. 6.404/76 (Corporate Law) based on the acquisition of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON by TEQUIMAR.
 
In this report, we used the future profitability method to calculate the net profit of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON. The future profitability method is based on retrospective analysis and scenario projection. The economic-financial modeling starts from the definition of the macroeconomic, sales, cost and investment premises of the company or business facility being appraised. The macroeconomic premises used in this work are based on estimates disclosed by IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), PIB (Gross Domestic Product), BANCO CENTRAL (Central Bank), BNDES (Brazil’s National Development Bank), etc. Projections of volume and sales price of services, production, costs and investment were estimated in accordance with the historical performance of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON, as well as with the multi-annual projections of the companies.

4.1.
METHODOLOGY USED
 
INCOME APPROACH: FUTURE PROFITABILITY
 
This method defines the company’s future profitability by way of its projected net profit, the result of which is then brought to present market value.
 
The projection period for net profit is determined by considering the time the company will take to introduce a stable operational activity, that is, without operational variations deemed relevant. Net profit is then brought to current market value through the use of a discount rate which will reflect the risk associated to the market, to the company and to capital structure.
 
PROJECTION FOR FUTURE RESULTS
 
To calculate future profitability we used Net Profit as a measure for income, where:
 
Profit before non-cash items, interest and taxes (EBITDA)
( - ) Non-cash items (depreciation and amortization)
( - ) Financial revenues and expenses
( = ) Net profit before taxes (EBIT)
( - ) Income Tax and Social Contribution (IR/CSSL)
( = ) Net profit after taxes
 
RESIDUAL VALUE
 
Perpetuity is contemplated after the end of the projection period, which considers all the results to be generated after the last projection year and their respective growth. The company’s residual value (perpetuity) is generally estimated through the use of the constant growth model. This model assumes that net profit will have constant perpetual growth after the end of the projection period. This model calculates the value of perpetuity in the last year of the projection period by means of the geometric progression model, and then brings it forward to the first projection year.
 
DISCOUNT RATE
 
The discount rate to be used to calculate the present value of net profits assessed in projected cash flow represents the rate of return on the company’s own capital, which will require greater profitability than that achieved from a standard risk investment.

APPRAISAL – NET PROFIT VALUE OF SHARES
 
The income approach was adopted in this report so as to comply with the criteria for appraisal of the net profit value of shares, as set forth in article 256, II, c) of Act no. 6.404 (Corporate Law). These criteria are used to assess the Net Profit value of shares through the projection of future net profits, which are brought to present market value through the use of an appropriate discount rate (see item 4.1).
 
Projections were carried out on the basis of the projected EBITDA of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON. A realistic scenario was adopted upon real EBITDA growth along the projected period.
 
The following premises were contemplated for projections:
 
 
§
Stand-alone operations;
 
 
§
Projected market growth on the basis of the Gross Domestic Product (PIB);
 
 
§
Profile of costs and rates on current bases;
 
 
§
Profile of investments on current bases;
 
 
§
Expansion of 30 thousand m³ in YEAR 6.
 
 
§
The method is based on the generation of discounted net profit flow;
 
 
§
Net profit was analytically projected for a 10-year period, from 2009 to 2018, and perpetuity was contemplated after YEAR11;
 
 
§
The fiscal year from November 01 to October 31 was contemplated as the yearly period.
 
 
§
The flow was projected in nominal currency and present value was calculated upon the nominal rate of discount (where inflation is contemplated);
 
 
§
Unless indicated otherwise, values were expressed in thousands of reals.
 
 
§
To predict the results of future business years of UNIÃO TERMINAIS and LEXINGTON, we used each company’s balance sheet as of October 2008 as the starting balance.
