by their respective undersigned managers, decide to execute this Protocol and Justification for the Merger of Subsidiaries with and into CBD (the “Protocol”), for all legal purposes and effects, according to Article 223 and following articles of Law No. 6,404, as amended and in effect, (the “Brazilian Corporations Law”), pursuant to the following terms and conditions:

 

1.         Justification

 

1.1.      CBD is a publicly-held company, which capital stock, totally subscribed and totally paid-in, is of six billion, seven hundred and ninety one million, nine hundred and eighty thousand, twelve Brazilian Reais and six cents (R$6.791.980.880,06), divided into two hundred and sixty five million, two hundred and eighty three thousand, three hundred and eight (265.283.308) shares with no par value, being ninety nine million, six hundred and seventy nine thousand, eight hundred and fifty one (99.679.851) common shares and one hundred and sixty five million, six hundred and three thousand, four hundred and fifty seven (165.603.457) preferred shares, all with no par value.

 


 

 

 

1.2.      The Subsidiaries are limited liability companies and closely-held companies, which capital stock, totally subscribed and totally paid-in, are divided into quotas or shares, as applicable, which shall be held by CBD, in its entirety, on the date of the Incorporation.

 

1.3.      Considering that CBD shall be the only quotaholder and shareholder, as applicable, of the Subsidiaries, the merger of the Subsidiaries with and into CBD (the “Merger”) is highly convenient for the corporate interests of the Subsidiaries and CBD, since the unification of the activities and management of the companies shall result in administrative, economic and financial benefits, by means of the rationalization and simplification of its corporate structure, what makes possible to consolidate and reduce its combined operating expenditures and expenses and enables the capture of operational and fiscal synergies of the group entities.

 

2.         Transfer of Equity and Effectiveness of the Incorporation

 

2.1.      Transfer of Equity and Appraisal: Upon the Merger, all the Subsidiaries’ net equity shall be transferred to CBD, with the consequent dissolution of the Subsidiaries. For the Merger purposes, the net equity of the Subsidiaries was valued based on its book value on the base date of September 30, 2014. The appraisal report of the net assets of the Subsidiaries to be transferred to CBD was prepared by Magalhães Andrade S/S Auditores Independentes, a company enrolled with the CNPJ/MF under No. 62.657.242/000100, with headquarters in the City of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, at Avenida Brigadeiro Faria Lima, 1893, 6th floor, Jardim Paulistano, Postal Code 01452001, duly registered with the Regional Accounting Council of the State of São Paulo (CRC/SP) under No. 2SP000233/O3 (“Magalhães Andrade”), a specialized company which prepared the valuation of the Subsidiaries, on the base date of September 30, 2014 (the “Appraisal Report”), hired ad referendum of the quotaholders and shareholders of the Subsidiaries and of the shareholders of CBD, which is attached to this Protocol as Exhibit 2.1.

 

2.1.1    Magalhães Andrade declared to not have any conflict of interest or common interest, present or potential, with the controlling shareholders or quotaholders of CBD and the Subsidiaries or upon their minority shareholders and/or quotaholders and from other companies of their respective groups, regarding the Merger.

 

2.2.      Appraisal: Magalhães Andrade valued all equity of the Subsidiaries at the value of one hundred and six million, five hundred and twenty-seven thousand, two hundred and forty-four Reais and eighteen cents (R$106,527,244.18).

 

2.3.      Equity Changes: The equity changes occurred between September 30, 2014 and the effective date of the Merger shall be absorbed by CBD.

 

 


 

 

2.4.      Increase of the Capital Stock and Net Worth of the Surviving Company: In case the Merger is approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of CBD, as well as by the quotaholders upon Amendments to the Articles of Association or by the shareholders upon Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, as applicable, of the Merged Companies, it shall not implicate in the increase of capital stock of CBD, once CBD shall be, on the date of the Incorporation, the holder of the totality of the capital stock of the Merged Companies.

 

2.5       Absence of the 264 report: In addition to the aforementioned considerations, CBD clarifies that within the scope of the Merger, the report provided for in Article 264 of the Brazilian Corporations Law will not be prepared, for the reasons outlined herein below:

 

2.5.1. Within the scope of the Merger, there are no minority interests in the entities which shall be merged into CBD to be safeguarded, once on the date of the Merger CBD all Subsidiaries shall have the totality of their quotas and shares held by CBD. Therefore, there is no share replacement ratio to be compared for the purposes of Article 264 of the Brazilian Corporate Law.

 

2.5.2. In this regard, as far as the shareholders of CBD are concerned, the report referred to in Article 264 of the Brazilian Corporate Law has a merely informative nature.

 

2.5.3.  Finally, the current shareholders of CBD will maintain the same interests held in CBD’s capital stock as prior to the implementation of the Merger, once CBD’s capital stock will not be increased and CBD will not issue new shares.

 

3.         Other Conditions Applicable to the Merger

 

3.1       Dissolution of the Merged Companies: With the Merger approval, the Subsidiaries shall be fully dissolved by operation of law.

 

3.2       Succession Rights and Obligations: CBD shall assume all assets and liabilities regarding the equity of the Subsidiaries which shall be transferred to it pursuant to this Protocol, being successor to all assets, rights and obligations of the Subsidiaries.

 

3.3.      Corporate Acts to Resolve on the Merger: The Merger, as well as the Appraisal Report and other terms and conditions of this Protocol, are subject to the approval of the quotaholders and shareholders, as applicable, of the Subsidiaries, and of the shareholders of CBD, upon Amendments to the Articles of Association or Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, as applicable, of the Merged Companies, and at Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of CBD, for examination and resolution on the Merger and justification set forth in this Protocol, including, without limitation, the dissolution of the Subsidiaries. The parties undertake to perform, and to cause their managers to perform, any other acts that may be necessary to implement the set forth in this Protocol, once approved by the quotaholders and shareholders, as applicable, of the Subsidiaries and by the shareholders of CBD.

 

3.4.      Effectiveness: In case the Merger is approved, it shall become effective as of December 31, 2014.

 

 


 

 

            In witness whereof, the parties execute this instrument in eleven (11) counterparts of equal content and for one sole effect, together with the two undersigned witnesses.

APPRAISAL REPORT

 

 

 


 
 

 

 

 

INTRODUCTION

 

1.     The present operation whereby Companhia Brasileira de Distribuição (CBD) or (Merging Company) merges net assets of investees Vancouver Empreendimentos e Participações Ltda. (VANCOUVER), Duque Conveniências Ltda. (DUQUE), PA Publicidade Ltda. (PAPU), API SPE 06 Planejamento e Desenvolvimento de Empreendimentos Imobiliários Ltda. (SPE), Monte Tardeli Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (MONTE TARDELI), GPA 4 Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (GPA 4), GPA 5 Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (GPA 5), ECQD Participações Ltda. (ECQD) and Vedra Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (VEDRA), jointly referred as MERGED COMPANIES.

 

2.     As set out in the PROTOCOL OF MERGER AND JUSTIFICATION entered into, the MERGED COMPANIES herein referred to are limited liability companies and privately-held stock corporations whose fully subscribed for and paid-up capital comprises units of quotas and shares, as applicable, that shall be fully held by CBD.

 

3.     Whereas CBD shall be sole quotaholder and shareholder, as the case may be, of the MERGED COMPANIES, their merger into CBD is highly convenient to the company quotas of CBD and MERGED COMPANIES, since the merging activities and management of companies will generate considerable benefits of an administrative, economic and financial nature, mainly through rationalizing and simplifying the shareholding structure of the group, enabling the consolidation and reduction of operating costs and expenses, rendering feasible to capture operating and tax synergies of group companies.

 

4.     This REPORT, therefore, aims to determine the book value of net assets to be merged, in light of the Company’s equity at September 30, 2014.

 

5.     The Appraisal Report was issued in connection with the audit of the balance sheets of the MERGED COMPANIES prepared for this purpose at September 30, 2014, as well as the summary of significant accounting practices.

 

6.     Companies’ Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

7.     Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the investment held by CBD based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International and Brazilian Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

8.     An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the MERGED COMPANIES’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 


 
 

 

 

9.     We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

59.  Due to the agreement for sale of non-controlling equity quotas that CBD holds between  quotaholders of the MERGED COMPANIES, mentioned in this REPORT, CBD is herein deemed to be the sole member of the MERGED COMPANIES.

 

60.  In connection with the merger, the aforesaid investments in CBD cease to exist, which are replaced by the MERGED COMPANIES net assets, as shown in the balance sheets presented in ATTACHMENTS 1, 4, 7, 10, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24, without any effect on CBD’s net equity.

62.  CBD current accounts with related parties are shown in ATTACHMENT 28, including those with MERGED COMPANIES to be eliminated upon merger.

 

 

CONCLUSION

 

63.  In view of the evidence and assertions herein set out, we conclude that net assets to be merged by Companhia Brasileira de Distribuição amount to R$ 106,527,244.18 and do not change the MERGER COMPANYS net equity, since such amount has been recorded in its assets as investments and valued under the equity method of accounting, so as to reflect the net equity value of ACQUIRED subsidiaries.

Notes to Financial Statements
material for purposes of this Appraisal Report

 

 

 

 

1.     Basis of preparation

 

The interim financial statements were prepared under the historical cost basis, and adjusted to reflect the fair value of financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) measured at fair value through profit or loss.

 

The accounting practices adopted in Brazil include those in Brazilian Corporation Law and the Standards and technical guidelines and interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee - CPC and approved by the CVM.

 

In the parent company financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are stated at the equity method.

 

The items included in the financial statements were measured by adopting the currency of the main economic scenario where the subsidiaries operates (“functional currency”), that is Real (“R$”), which is the reporting currency of this financial statement.

 

The interim financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 were approved by the Board of Directors on October 30, 2014.

 

 

2.     Significant accounting policies

 

a)    Financial instruments

 

Financial instruments are recognized on the trade date and recorded at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to their acquisition or issue. Their subsequent measurement occurs at the end of each reporting period according to the rules established for each category of financial assets and liabilities.

 

(i)            Financial assets

 

Initial recognition and measurement

 

The financial assets held by the Company and its subsidiaries within the scope of CPC 38 (IAS 39) are classified according the purpose for which they were acquired or contracted for the following categories: (i) assets measured at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) loans and receivables, and (iii) investments held to maturity. The Company determines the classification of their financial assets at inception.

 

Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value through profit or loss and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Loans and receivables are accounted for at amortized cost.

Notes to Financial Statements
material for purposes of this Appraisal Report

 

 

 

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require the assets to be delivered within a time frame established by regulations or market conventions (negotiations under regular conditions) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., on the date that the Company and its subsidiaries commits to purchase or sell the asset.

 

The financial assets of the Company and its subsidiaries include cash and cash equivalents; trade accounts receivable, related-party receivables, court deposits and derivative financial instruments.

 

Subsequent measurement

 

·      Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss: they represent assets acquired for short-term realization purposes and are measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period, Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange rate variation and variations arising from the fair value measurement are recognized in the income statement for the year as finance income or costs, when incurred.

 

·      Loans and receivables: these are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After the initial recognition, they are measured using the amortized cost through the effective interest method. Interest income, monetary restatement, exchange rate variation, less any impairment loss, as applicable, are recognized in the income statement as finance income or costs, when incurred; and

 

·      Held-to-maturity financial assets and liabilities: financial assets and liabilities that cannot be classified as loans and receivables as they are quoted in an active market, In this case, these financial assets are acquired with the intent and ability to hold to maturity. They are stated at their acquisition cost plus income earned against profit or loss for the year using the effective interest rate method.

 

Derecognition of financial assets

 

A financial asset (or, as applicable, a part of a financial asset or a part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when:

 

·      Its right to receive cash flows has expired; and

 

·      The Company and its subsidiaries have transferred their rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full to a third party under an on lending agreement; and (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards related to the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards related to the assets, but has transferred its control.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into an on lending agreement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards related to the asset or transferred control of the asset, the asset is maintained and an associated liability is recognized. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations retained by the Company and subsidiaries.

 

Impairment of financial assets

 

At the end of the reporting periods, the Company and its subsidiaries assess whether there is any indication of impairment of a financial asset or group of financial assets. The impairment of a financial asset or group of financial assets is only considered when there is objective evidence resulting from one or more events occurred after the asset’s initial recognition (“loss event”), and if said event affects the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets, which can be reliably estimated. The evidence of impairment may include indications that debtors (or group of debtors) are going through relevant financial constraints, moratorium or default in the amortization of interest or principal; likelihood that they will file for bankruptcy or another type of financial reorganization; and when these data indicate a measurable decrease in future cash flows, such as default interest variations or economic conditions related to default.

 

Specifically in relation to financial assets held to maturity, the Company and its subsidiaries, firstly, verify whether there is objective evidence of impairment individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for assets that are not individually significant, Should the Company and its subsidiaries determine the nonexistence of objective evidence of impairment of a financial asset measured individually – whether or not this significant loss – the Company classifies it in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics which are evaluated collectively. The assets individually assessed as to impairment, or for which the impairment is (or continues to be) recognized, are not included in the collective assessment of the loss.

 

Impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of an asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted by the original effective interest rate of the financial asset. The asset’s carrying amount decreases through the use of a provision and the impairment loss is recognized in the income statement, Interest revenue is recorded in the financial statements as part of finance income, In the case of loans or investments held to maturity with a variable interest rate, the Company measures the non-recovery based on the fair value of the instrument adopting an observable market price.

If, in a subsequent period, impairment decreases and this reduction can be objectively associated with an event occurred after the recognition of the provision (such as an improvement in a debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognized impairment loss is recognized in the income statement, If a write-off is later recovered, this recovery is also recognized in the income statement.

 

(ii)          Financial liabilities

 

The financial liabilities under the scope of CPC 38 (IAS 39) are classified as loans, borrowings or derivative financial instruments designated as hedge instruments in an effective hedge relationship, as applicable. The Company defines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.

 

All financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, plus directly attributable transaction costs.

 

The Company’s financial liabilities include loans and financing, debentures and derivative financial instruments.

 

Subsequent measurement

 

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and financings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement for the year when the liabilities are written off, or through amortization according to the effective interest rate method.

 

Derecognition of financial liabilities

 

A financial liability is derecognized when the underlying obligation is settled, cancelled or expired.

 

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender, on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, this replacement or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in income statement.

 

Offsetting of financial instruments

 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and stated net in the financial statements only if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention of settling them on a net basis or realizing the assets and settling the liabilities simultaneously.

b)    Foreign currency transactions

 

Foreign currency transactions are initially recognized at market value of the corresponding currencies on the date the transaction is qualified for recognition.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Real according to the market price at the end of the reporting periods. Differences arising on payment or translation of monetary items are recognized in financial result.

 

c)    Hedge accounting

 

The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate and exchange rate swaps.

 

These derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Derivatives are accounted for as financial assets when their fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when their fair value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are directly recorded in the income statement.

 

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which it wishes to apply hedge accounting and its objective and risk management strategy for contracting the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Company will assess the effectiveness of the changes in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged item or cash flow attributable to the hedged risk. These hedges are expected to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flow and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine if they actually have been highly effective throughout the years of the financial reports for which they were designated.

 

For the purposes of hedge accounting, these are classified as fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability.

 

The following are recognized as fair value hedges, in accordance with the procedures below:

 

·      The change in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument classified as interest rate hedging is recognized as financial result. The change in the fair value of the hedged item is recorded as a part of the carrying amount of the hedged item and is recognized in the income statement;

·      For fair value hedges relating to items accounted for at amortized cost, the adjustment to the carrying amount is amortized in profit or loss over the remaining term to maturity. Effective interest rate amortization may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and shall begin no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the hedged risk;

 

·      If the hedge item is derecognized, the unamortized fair value is immediately recognized in profit or loss; and

 

·      In order to calculate the fair value, debts and swaps are measured through rates disclosed in the financial market and projected up to their maturity date. The discount rate used in the calculation by the interpolation method for borrowings loans denominated in foreign currency is arrived at through DDI curves, clean coupon and DI x Yen, indices disclosed by the BM&FBovespa (the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange), whereas for loans denominated in reais, the Company uses the DI curve, an index published by the CETIP and calculated through the exponential interpolation method.

 

d)    Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, checking account and highly liquid short-term investments that are readily convertible into a known cash amount, and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value, with intention and possibility to be redeemed in the short term in until 90 days.

 

e)    Trade accounts receivable

 

Trade receivables are stated and maintained in the balance sheet position at their face sales amounts less allowance for doubtful debts, which is recorded based on the track record of loss and the risk analysis of the entire customer portfolio and the respective likelihood of collection.

 

Trade receivables refer to non-derivative financial assets with fixed payments or which may be calculated, without quotation in an active market. After the initial measurement, these financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost according to the effective interest method (“EIM”), less impairment. The amortized cost is calculated taking into account eventual discounts or premiums over the acquisition and tariffs or costs comprising the EIM. The EIM amortization is included in net finance income (costs) in the income statement. Impairment expenses are recognized in the income statement.

 

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses if the financial assets or group of financial assets are impaired.

Impairment of receivables are based on historical rates observed in the last 24 months, besides observation of economic events like unemployment rates, consumer trends and past due receivables in the portfolio.

 

Impairment of receivables is considered uncollectable, therefore, written off definitely after 180 days past due.

 

f)     Inventories

 

Inventories are accounted for at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. Inventories purchased are recorded at average cost, including warehouse and handling costs, to the extent these costs are necessary to make inventories available for sale in the stores, less bonuses received from suppliers.

Net realizable value is the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Inventories are reduced by an allowance for losses and breakage, which is periodically reviewed and evaluated as to it is adequacy.

 

g)    Bonuses

Bonuses received from suppliers are measured and recognized based on contracts and agreements signed, and recorded the result insofar as the corresponding inventories are sold.

 

Comprise purchase volume agreement, logistics services and specific negotiations to recompose margin or marketing agreements, among others, and are deducted from payables to the respective suppliers, once the Company is contractually entitled to settle trade payables net of amounts receivable by way of bonus.

 

h)    Present value adjustment of assets and liabilities

 

Current monetary assets and liabilities, when relevant, and long-term assets and liabilities are adjusted to their present value. The present value adjustment is calculated taking into account contractual cash flows and the respective explicit or implied interest rates.

Interest rates embedded in revenue, expenses and costs associated with said assets and liabilities are adjusted for appropriate recognition in conformity with the accrual basis of accounting. The present value adjustment is recorded in those items, subject to the application of the rule against the financial result.

 

Present value adjustment of sales received in installments is initially recognized against “Trade Accounts Receivable” account, and unwinded against net sales over time.

 

Other accounts over which present value adjustment is recorded, the unwinding is made against financial result.

i)     Impairment of non-financial assets

 

Impairment testing is designed, so the Company can present the net realizable value of an asset.

 

This amount may be realized directly or indirectly, respectively, through the sale of the asset or the cash generated by the use of the asset in the Company and its subsidiaries’ activities.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries test their tangible or intangible assets for impairment annually or whenever there is internal or external evidence that they may be impaired.

 

An asset’s recoverable amount is defined as the asset’s fair value or the value in use of its cash generating unit (CGU), whichever is higher, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.

 

If the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and an allowance for impairment is recorded to adjust its carrying amount to its recoverable amount, In assessing the recoverable amount, the estimated future cash flow is discounted to present value using a pre-tax discount rate that represents the Company’s weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), reflecting current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

 

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss for the year in expense categories consistent with the function of the respective impaired asset. Previously recognized impairment losses are only reversed in case of change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount at its initial or most recent recognition, except for goodwill, which cannot be reversed in future years.

 

j)     Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and/or impairment losses, if any. This cost includes the cost of acquisition of equipment and financing costs for long term construction projects, if the recognition criteria are met. When significant components of property and equipment are replaced, they are recognized as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciation. Likewise, when a major replacement is performed, its cost is recognized at the carrying amount of the equipment as a replacement, if the recognition criteria are met. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss for the year as incurred.

k)    Foreign currency translation

 

Quarterly financial information is presented in Brazilian reais, which is the functional currency. Each entity determines its functional currency and all your financial transactions are measured in that currency.

 

The financial statements of subsidiaries that use a different functional currency are translated according to the closing exchange rate:

 

·      Assets and liabilities, including goodwill and fair value adjustments, are translated into Reais at the closing date;

 

·      Statement of income and statement of cash flows are translated into Brazilian reais using the average rate for the period, unless significant changes occurred, at which time the rate of the transaction date is used;

 

Differences in foreign exchange variations are recognized directly in a separate component of equity. When a foreign operation is sold, the accumulated value of exchange rate adjustment in equity is released to the income statement.

 

Conversion effects of investment in a foreign operation are recognized in separate component of equity and reclassified to earnings when the write off of the investment.

 

Transactions in foreign currencies (i.e., transactions in currencies other than the functional currency) are translated into reais using the exchange rate at the transaction date.

 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing rate and the resulting exchange rate is recorded in financial income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the transaction rate.

 

l)     Pension plan

 

The pension plan is funded through payments to insurance companies, which are classified as a defined contribution plan according to CPC 33 (IAS 19). A defined contribution plan is a pension plan whereby the Company pays fixed contributions to a separate legal entity. The Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay additional contributions in relation to the plan’s assets.

  1. New standards issued but not yet effective

 

a)    General legislation

 

Provisional Presidential Decree 627/13 – in November 2013, the Provisional Presidential Decree MP 627 was issued, changing the tax legislation and eliminating the Transitory Tax Regimen – RTT. In May 2014, the Law 12,973 was issued, resulted from the conversion of the MP 627 in law. The Company, together with its external advisors, analyzed the Law 12,973 and Normative Instruction − IN 1,492, to assess the implications of its anticipated application and the possible impact on the parent company and consolidated interim financial information for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014. Until the date of approval of this interim financial information, the Company has not identified any significant effects to be recognized as consequence of enactment of the Law 12,973.

 

 

  1. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

 

Judgments, estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of the individual and consolidated quarterly financial information of the Company requires Management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the end of the period; however, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require material adjustments to the carrying amount of the asset or liability impacted in future periods.

 

The significant assumptions and estimates for quarterly financial information for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 were the same as those adopted in the consolidated and individual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, presented on February 14, 2014, and therefore, should be read together, except for the impairment test, which is tested annually only observing indicators during the year as described in notes 15 and 16.

 

 

  1. Property and equipments (partial)

 

The Company has not identified evidence of loss in the amount of the items of its property and equipment, which require a new measurement of recoverable amount of assets at September 30, 2014.

c)    Impairment test of goodwill and intangible assets

 

Goodwill and intangible assets were tested for impairment as of December 31, 2013 according to the method described in note 4 - Significant accounting policies, in the financial statements of December 31, 2013, released on February 14, 2014.

 

As a result of the impairment test conducted in 2013 and because there is no evidence of loss in this value on September 30, 2014, the Company concluded not necessary to perform a new measurement of recoverable amount of these assets. For the year ending December 31, 2014, Company’s Management will perform new impairment tests for all goodwill and intangible assets recognized until this date.
