Independent auditor’s report on interim financial information

 

To Shareholders, Board of Directors and Officers

Telefônica Brasil S.A.

São Paulo - SP

 

We have reviewed the individual and consolidated interim financial information of Telefônica Brasil S.A., (“Company”), contained in the Quarterly Information Form (Informações Trimestrais - ITR) for the quarter ended on June 30, 2016, which comprise the balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 and the related statements of income and of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month period ended on June 30, 2016, and changes in equity and of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, including other explanatory information.

 

Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with Accounting Standard CPC 21 (R1) Interim Financial Reporting (Demonstração Intermediária) issued by Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis - CPC and with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the presentation of this information in conformity with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information Form (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

 

 

Scope of review

 

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 - Revisão de Informações Intermediárias Executada pelo Auditor da Entidade and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

 

Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information

 

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) referred to above were not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information Form (ITR), and presented consistently with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM).

Other matters

 

Statements of value added

 

We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated interim Value Added Statement for the six-month period ended on June 30, 2016, prepared under management’s responsibility, whose presentation in the interim financial information is required by the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to preparation of the Quarterly Information Form (ITR), and as supplementary information under IFRS, which do not require Value Added Statement presentation. This statement has been subject to the same review procedures previously described and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that it is not fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the overall accompanying interim financial information.

NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six-month period ended June 30, 2016

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

In the auction for sale of the remaining radiofrequency bands of 1,800 MHz, 1,900 MHz and 2,500 MHz, held by the National Telecommunications Agency (ANATEL) on December 17, 2015, the Company was the out bidder of seven 2,500MHz frequency lots, having offered the amount of R$185,450, as follows: lot E2 DDD11 Greater São Paulo - R$110,250; lot E18 DDD21 Greater Rio - R$55,000; lot E39 DDD48 Florianópolis and region - R$500; lot E43 DDD51 Greater Porto Alegre - R$16,690; lot E46 DDD54 Caxias do Sul and region - R$2,085; lot E51 DDD63 Palmas and region - R$400; and lot E58 DDD67 Dourados and region - R$525. To the preparation of interim financial statements, the contract these radio had not yet been signed between the Company and ANATEL

The information on the operation areas (regions) and due dates of the radiofrequency authorizations for SMP services  is the same of Note 1b) Operations as disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

c) Corporate Restructuring

 

In the Special Shareholders’ Meeting (“SSM”) held on April 1, 2016, approved the Corporate Restructuring in accordance with the terms and conditions proposed of March 14, 2016, as described below.

 

GVT Holdings SA ("GVTPart.") Was the parent company of Global Village Telecom S.A. ("GVT"), companies which were controlled by the Company from May 28, 2015 to April 1, 2016 (Note 3). GVT was the direct controlling company of POP Internet Ltda. (“POP”), and indirect controlling company of Innoweb Ltda. (“Innoweb”), Brazil-based.

 

POP is a provider of free Internet access. Innoweb (subsidiary of POP) provides telephone services using VoIP technology, which allows calls using the Internet at lower costs than those using conventional telephone technology, using dedicated circuits.

 

The Corporate Restructuring involved the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, GVTPart. (holding company whose business purpose is to hold interest in other national or foreign companies, as shareholder), preceded by restructuring involving its subsidiaries; namely GVT (whose business purpose is to render land-line telecommunication services, including pay-TV services in all regions of Brazil) and POP.

 

The corporate structure, considering only the companies involved in the Corporate Restructuring March 31, 2016 was as follows:

 

 
The Corporate Restructuring aims at standardizing the services provided by the companies involved in this process by (i) concentrating the rendering of telecommunication services on one single company, that is, the Company; and (ii) migration of activities that were provided by GVT, specifically those that were not related to telecommunications services for POP.
 

As such, the simplification of the corporate structure and the concentration of telecommunication services on the Company will lead to a converging environment, facilitating consolidation and confluence of the offering of telecommunication services and service packages; optimizing administrative and operating costs; and standardizing the operations of the companies involved in the Corporate Restructuring.

NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six-month period ended June 30, 2016

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

The Corporate Restructuring was approved by ANATEL through Ruling No. 50169, of January 22, 2016, which was published in the Federal Official Gazette (“DOU”) on January 28, 2016 with the conditions provided therein.

The Corporate Restructuring occurred on the same date and as follows: (i) GVT was spun off and involving assets, rights and obligations related to the telecommunications activities, its net assets relating to property, rights and obligations connected to telecommunications activities was absorbed by GVTPart., while other net assets relating to property, rights and obligations connected to activities other than telecommunications was absorbed by POP; and (iii) the net assets of GVTPart. (after the merger of GVT’s net assets, item (i)) was merged into the Company.

After the intended Corporate Restructuring, the corporate structure considering only the companies involved in the Corporate Restructuring it is started to be as follows:

Given that the merger of GVTPart. into the Company does not require capital increase or change in shareholders’ interest in the Company, since GVTPart. was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the replacement of shares held by the shareholders in GVTPart. with shares in the Company is not applicable. Consequently, there are no minority interests to be considered and, therefore, according to the CVM’s position in similar prior cases, and on the terms of CVM Resolution No. 559/08, the provisions of article 264 of Law No. 6404/76 and its further amendments do not apply either.

Additionally, in relation to the transaction that precedes the merger of GVTPart into the Company, the replacement of shares is not applicable, since GVT is a subsidiary of GVTPart. and of the Company itself, thus there are no minority shareholders.

On the terms of article 137 of Law No. 6404/76 and its further amendments, the Corporate Restructuring does not entitle Company’s shareholders the right of withdrawal. Furthermore, considering that there are no minority shareholders of GVTPart., since it is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, there is no question of right to withdrawal  and exercise of the right to withdraw of non-controlling shareholders of GVTPart., as provided for in article 136, item iv, and article 137 of Law No. 6404/76 and its further amendments.

The quarterly financial statements were prepared pursuant to the accounting principles, practices and criteria consistent with those adopted in preparing the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, as well as the new pronouncements, interpretations and amendments that had been published, as described below:

 

IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, revision: The amendments to this standard provide a guidance regarding the accounting treatment to be adopted upon the reclassification of an asset (or group of assets) from the “held for sale” category to the “distribution to shareholders” category (or conversely). This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not have plans for asset sales or distribution to shareholders and, does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position.

 

IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, revision: The amendments to this standard provide a guidance regarding the disclosure of the accounting policies that form the measurement base (or bases) used in the preparation of the financial statements, and other accounting policies used that are relevant to allow understanding the financial statements. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company already discloses significant accounting practices in its financial statements.

 

IFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations, revision: The amendments to this standard require that joint investors, which record the acquisition of equity interest in joint operations that is a business apply the relevant IFRS 3 principles applicable to business combination. The amendments further clarify that the interest previously held in joint operations is not remeasured upon acquisition of additional interest in the same joint operation, while the joint control is held. Additionally, a scope exclusion was added to IFRS 11 in order to specify that the amendments are not applicable when the parties sharing joint control, including the reporting entity, are under the common control of the main controlling party. The amendments are applicable to both, the acquisition of final interest in a joint operation and the acquisition of any additional interest in the same joint operation, and are effective prospectively as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company did not acquire interest in joint operations fitting into this standard.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts, issue: This standard is optional and allows companies whose activities are subject to regulated fees to continue applying most part of its accounting policies on regulatory deferral accounts balances upon the first-time adoption of IFRS. The companies that adopt IFRS 14 must present regulatory deferral accounts separately in the balance sheet and in the other comprehensive income. This standard requires disclosures on the nature and risks associated with company’s regulated fees, and the effects of such regulation on the financial statements. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impact on its financial position, since it has already been preparing its financial statements based on the effective IFRS.

 

IAS 1 Disclosure Initiative, revision: This standard addresses changes in the overall financial statements of a company. This standard is applicable as from year beginning on  or after January 1, 2016. The model for disclosure of the Company’s financial information is compliant with this standard, and the Company does not expect impacts on its financial disclosures.

 

IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization, revision: The amendments clarify the depreciation and amortization methods subject to the alignment to the concept of future economic benefits expected from the use of assets over its economic useful life. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impact on its financial position.

 

IAS 19 Employee Benefits, revision: The amendments to this standard require that the Company disclosure information about the rates used to discount obligations with post-employment benefits, determining by reference market earnings at the end of the reference period of the obligations of high-quality institutions. For currencies for which there is no active market in such obligations of high-quality institutions, there shall be use of market earnings (at the end of the period of disclosure) of government securities denominated in that currency. The currency and term of the obligations of the companies or of government obligations must be consistent with the currency and term expected of obligations with post-employment benefits. In Brazil, there is no confirmed high-quality securities market, and that is the reason why the Company and its actuaries have been using Brazilian Government securities for many years, mainly NTN-Bs (National Treasury Notes – B series), with terms equivalent to the average duration of each plan for purposes of present value discount of the actuarial liabilities. The currency used for the payment of the benefits and for NTN-Bs valuation is the Real.

 

Amendments to IAS 27 Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements, revision: The amendments to this standard allow the Company to use the equity pick-up method for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and affiliates in its individual financial statements. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. This amendment did not generate any impact on the individual financial statements of the Company, since the equivalent Brazillian accounting standards (CPC-35-R2) already provided the use of this method.

 

IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, revision: The amendments to this standard require that the Company disclose in its interim financial statements must include the following information: (i) declaration of policies and calculation methods compared to the most recent annual financial statements; (ii) comments about seasonality; (iii) nature and quantity of unusual items that affect assets, liabilities, equity, revenues or cash flows due to their nature, dimension or occurrence; (iv) nature and number of changes in estimates of amounts disclosed in the comparative periods; (v) issues, repurchases and refunds of securities; (vi) dividends paid (aggregated or per share), separated by common and other shares; (vii) complete information by segment; (viii) events subsequent to the current period, which have not been reflected in the interim reports; and (ix) effects from changes in the Company’s corporate structure during the interim financial statements reporting period, among others. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect impact on its interim financial statements, since it already includes this information in the preparation of its quarterly financial statements.

 

On the date of preparation of these quarterly financial statements, the following IFRS amendments had been published, however, their application was not compulsory:

The Company does not early adopt any pronouncement, interpretation or amendment that has been issued, whose application is not compulsory.

The Telefónica Group is currently evaluating the impact of the application of this standard. In addition, the amendments introduced by IFRS 9 will affect financial instruments and operations with financial instruments performed on or after January 1, 2018. Additionally, IFRS 16 requires that the Company inform all assets and liabilities subject to leases (except short-term leases and leases of nominal amount). Therefore, the amendments introduced by IFRS 16 may have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(4)     This includes the allocation of deferred taxes on contingent liabilities (R$174,300).

 

(5)     This refers to goodwill recorded on the acquisition of GVTPart. based on expected synergies resulting from the business combination. This amount may be used for tax purposes.

 

As part of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Other Covenants executed by the Company and Vivendi for the acquisition of GVT Part-issued shares, a contingent consideration was defined for the court deposits made by GVT for the monthly installments of deferred income and social contribution taxes on the amortization of goodwill arising from the corporate restructuring process completed by GVT in 2013. In September 2014, GVT filed for a cancellation of the judicial review and the return of the amounts deposited with the courts.

 

If GVT succeeds in receiving (being reimbursed, refunded of or netting) these funds, they will be returned to Vivendi, as long as they are obtained in a final unappeasable decision. The period for returning such amount is of up to 15 years. The fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date was R$344,217, recorded in the Company’s non-current liabilities as “Loans, financing, financial lease and contingent consideration” (Note 20), which is subject to monthly monetary adjustments based on the Selic rate.

 

The balance of cash and cash equivalents on the acquisition date was R$390,255 (R$376,479, net of transaction costs).

 

On the date of preparation of these quarterly financial statements, the Company concluded had already completed revisions the review of the adjustments to the determination of the fair value of GVTPart. for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Labor provisions and contingencies involve labor claims filed by former employees and employees at outsourced (the latter alleging subsidiary or joint liability) claiming for, among other issues, overtime, salary equalization, post-retirement benefits, allowance for health hazard and risk premium, and matters relating to outsourcing.

 

The Company is also a defendant in labor claims filed by retired former employees who are covered by the Retired Employees Medical Assistance Plan (“PAMA”), who among other things are demanding the cancellation of amendments to this plan. Most of these claims await a decision by the Regional Labor Court of São Paulo and the Superior Labor Court. Based on the opinion of its legal counsel and recent decisions of the courts, management considers the risk of loss in these cases as possible. No amount has been allocated for these claims, since is not possible to estimate the cost to the Company in the event of loss.

 

Additionally, the Company is party to Public Civil Actions filed by the Labor Public Prosecutor’s Office, mainly in relation to the determination that the Company must cease the engagement of intermediaries to carry out its core activities. No amounts were allocated to the possible degree of risk in these Public Civil Actions in the above table, since at this stage of the proceedings it is not possible to estimate the cost to the Company in the event of loss.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

·       A Class Action filed by the Association of Participants in SISTEL (“ASTEL”) in the State of São Paulo, challenging changes made in the Company’s Retired Employees’ Medical Assistance Plan (“PAMA”) and, briefly summarized, claim for the reestablishment of the prior status quo ante. The process is still in the appeal stage, waiting for Interlocutory Appeal judgment filed by Company against admissibility decision of the special and extraordinary appeals filed in the face as the 2nd degree decision, which reversed the dismissal sentence. The value is inestimable and the requests illiquid for its unenforceability, considering that involves returning the conditions of the previous plan.

 

·       Civil Public Actions filed by ASTEL in the State of São Paulo and by the National Federation of Associations of Retired Employees, Pensioners and Members of Pension Funds in the Telecommunications Sector (“FENAPAS”), both against Sistel, the Company and other operators, in order to annul the spin-off of a PBS private pension plan, alleging, in brief, the “dismantling of the Sistel Foundation’s supplementary pension system”, which had originated a number of specific minor PBS plans mirroring, corresponding to allocation of funds arising from a technical surplus and tax contingency existing at the time of the spin-off. The amount cannot be estimated and the claims are gross because they are unenforceable, given that they involve a return to the spun-off assets of Sistel consisting of the telecommunications operators belonging to the former Telebrás System.

 

·       The São Paulo State Prosecutor’s Office filed a public civil action claiming indemnity for moral and material damage suffered by all users of telecommunications services from 2004 to 2009 due to the poor quality of service and failures in the communications system. The Prosecutor’s Office suggested that a fine of R$1 billion should be imposed. The decision handed down on April 20, 2010 was for an indemnity to be paid for damage suffered by all users registering as parties to the action. Company filed an appeal that on April,13, 2015 was judged, and by unanimous vote retired the first degree sentence to reject the demand. The prosecution appealed against the judgment of the Appeal, filed a special and extraordinary appeal. Present counterarguments to the special and extraordinary appeals. The special and extraordinary appeals were not admitted, awaiting intimation about possible an appeal by prosecutors.

 

Alternatively, if the number users registering within a year were not compatible with the extent of the damage caused, the judge determined an amount of R$60 million to be deposited in the Special Expense Fund to Indemnify Damage to Collective Interests. It is not possible to estimate the number of consumers that may apply for individual registration, or the amounts that they may claimed. The parties have appealed. The effects of the sentence are suspended. No value has been assigned in the above table on the possible risk from this public civil action because, at present, it is not possible to estimate the cost to the Company in the event of loss, and it is equally not possible to set up a provision. On April 13, 2015, the Company’s appeal was judged, and the court unanimously overturned the lower court’s conviction of the Company to pay the moral and material damage supposedly suffered by all the consumers affected by the “problems” in the services provided. The Prosecutor’s Office filed a special and extraordinary appeal and we have filed counterarguments.

 

·       The Company is a party to civil proceedings in various levels, in which individual users, consumer rights associations or PROCON are making demands related to services supplied, and to other cases involving miscellaneous issues in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2016, consolidated provisions totaled R$2,388,649 (R$2,146,850 at December 31, 2015).

 

·       TGLog is a party to a civil execution action in the 3rd Civil Court of Barueri (SP) alleging lack of payment of trade bills for transportation services. TGLog’s defense is that it made legitimate deductions from the trade bills for breaches of contract and losses caused by damage to its customers' goods transported by the plaintiff, which is also the subject of another lawsuit. At June 30, 2016, the amount was R$1,138 (R$1,022 at December 31, 2015).

 

·       The Company has received tax assessment notices related to noncompliance with the Customer Service Decree ("SAC"). We are currently litigating several cases (administrative and judicial proceedings). At June 30, 2016 the consolidated amount was R$14,047 (R$12,881 at December 31, 2015).

·       Intelectual Property: On November 20, 2001, Lune Projetos Especiais Telecomunicação Comércio e Ind. Ltda (“Lune”), a Brazilian company, filed an action on against 23 telecommunications operators of mobile services, claiming to own the patent for caller identifier and the "Bina". The purpose of that lawsuit was to interrupt provision of such service by operators of mobile services and to seek indemnification equivalent to the amount paid by consumers for using the service.

 

The court issued an unfavorable judgment determining that the Company should refrain from selling mobile phones with caller identifier service ("Bina"), subject to daily fine of R$10,000.00 in case of noncompliance. In addition, the Company must pay indemnification for royalties to be calculated in settlement.. All parties filed motions for clarification and Lunes' sought injunctive relief as appropriate at this stage of the proceedings. Lunes filed an interlocutory appeal in relation to this decision, which granted suspensive effect to the injunctive relief and suspended the effects of the unfavorable decision until final judgment of the Appeal. that was approved on June, 30, 2016 by the 4th Chamber of the Court of Justice of the Federal District, to annul the first instance decision and refer the case to the first instance to perform a new skill. pending trial. The extent of any liability that may arise from this claim cannot be determined at this point in time.

 

·       The Company and other wireless telecommunications operators, are defendants in several lawsuits filed by public prosecutors and consumer protection associations challenging imposition of a period in which prepaid minutes may be used. The complainants claim that prepaid minutes should not expire after a specific period of time. Contradictory decisions have been made by the courts, although we believe that our criteria for imposing a period determination comply with ANATEL regulations. Based on the opinion of our legal advisors, we understand the probability of the class actions having an unfavorable outcome is remote.

Possible Regulatory contingencies

 

Management and its legal advisors understand that the chances of losing the following cases involving regulatory matters may be rated 'possible':

 

·       The Company and GVTPart. are parties to administrative proceedings filed by ANATEL alleging noncompliance with the obligations set forth in industry regulations, as well as legal claims which discuss the sanctions applied by ANATEL at the administrative sphere. At June 30, 2016, the consolidated amount was R$4,401,836 (R$3,716,106 for the Company at December 31, 2015).

 

·       Administrative and judicial proceedings discussing payment of 2% charge on interconnection services revenue arising from the extension of right of use of SMP related radio frequencies. Under clause 1.7 of the authorization term that grant right of use of SMP related radio frequencies, the extension of right of use of such frequencies entails payment every two years, during the extension period (15 years) of a 2% charge calculated on net revenues from the service provider’s Basic and Alternative Plans of the service company, determined in the year before that of payment.

 

However, ANATEL determined that in addition to revenues from Service Plans, the charge corresponding to 2% should also be levied on interconnection revenues and other operating revenues, which is not stipulated in clause 1.7 of referred Authorization Term.

 

Based on the provisions of the Authorization Term, the interconnection services revenues should not be included in the calculation of the 2% charge for radiofrequency use right extension, the Company filed administrative and legal proceedings challenging these charged, based on ANATEL’s position.

 

18.4) Guarantees

 

The Company and its subsidiaries provided guarantees for tax, civil and labor proceedings, as follows:

20.a.4) Contingent consideration

 

As part of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Other Covenants signed by the Company to acquire all Vivendi´s GVTPart shares, a contingent consideration was agreed in relation to the court deposit made by GVT for monthly installments of income and social contribution taxes on the amortization of goodwill arising from the corporate restructuring concluded by GVT in 2013. In September 2014, GVT filed to cancel the judicial appeal and return the amount deposited.

 

If GVT succeeds in obtaining (reimbursing, repaying, offsetting) this amount, it will be returned to Vivendi, provided there is a final and non-appealable judgment (res judicata). Reimbursement will be made within 15 years.

 

The amount calculated on the effective date of acquisition of control of GVTPart (Note 3) is R$344,217, recorded as "Judicial deposits, non-current" in GVT. This amount is subject to monthly restatement by GVT and the Company at the SELIC rate.

(1)  This refers to the Company's share of responsibility under the contract signed with ANATEL, whereby the operators winning this auction set up EAD, the company responsible for isonomic operation of all TV channel and RTV redistribution procedures and for solving problems arising from interference in radio communication systems.

(2)  This refers to the loan made to holders of the remaining stock (common and preferred) resulting from reverse split and fractioning of the shares of the Company and the merged companies.

(3)  This refers to the cost of renewing STFC and SMP licenses.

(4)  This refers to payroll withholdings and taxes withheld from pay-outs of interest on equity and on provision of services.

(5)  Fiber optic exchange: refers to fiber optic cable installed in Brazil's South region. The original amount was recorded in Property, Plant and Equipment.  This liability is to be met by providing services in the 17-year contractual period as of 2002 and is not subject to interest charges on the remaining balance. The total balance payable at June 30, 2016 was R$6,367 (R$7,717 at December 31, 2015).

Public Price for Radio Frequency Right of Use (PPDUR): Under the telecommunications legislation, the price paid for a Mirror License included the right to use any frequencies required to meet the 20-year expansion targets at no additional cost. However, ANATEL's bidding procedure for Region II Mirror Companies established that if the price paid by the winner was below the price for using frequencies, the difference should be paid by the winner. In November 2014, after legal discussions between GVT and ANATEL, a back-tax agreement or REFIS was granted and deferred with a discount of R$16,217 for a final outstanding balance to pay of R$18,530, of which 15% (R$2,780) was paid and the remainder agreed to be paid in 30 installments. The balance payable at June 30, 2016 totaled R$6,231 (R$10,843 at December 31, 2015).

According to its bylaws, the Company is authorized to increase its share capital up to 1,850,000,000 (one billion, eight hundred fifty million) shares. The Board of Directors is the competent body to decide on any increase and consequent issue of new shares within the authorized capital limit.

 

Nevertheless, under the Brazilian Corporation Law (Law 6404/76, Article 166, IV) - establishes that capital may be increased by a resolution voted at a Special Shareholders’ Meeting convened to decide on amendments to the bylaws, if authorization for the capital increase limit has expired.

 

Capital increases do not necessarily observe the proportion between the number of shares of each class to be maintained, however the number of non-voting or restricted-voting preferred shares must not exceed 2/3 of total shares issued.

 

Preferred shares are non-voting, except for the cases set forth in Articles 9 and 10 of the bylaws, but have priority in the event of reimbursement of capital, without premium, and are entitled to dividends 10% higher than those paid on common shares, as per article 7 of the Company's bylaws and item II, paragraph 1, article 17 of Law No. 6404/76.

 

Preferred shares are also entitled to full voting rights if the Company fails to pay the minimum dividend to which they are entitled for three consecutive fiscal years and this right will be kept until payment of this dividend.

 

b) Premium on acquisition of equity interest

 

Under the accounting practices adopted in Brazil previously to the adoption of the IFRS/CPC, goodwill was recorded when shares were acquired at higher value than their carrying amount, the premium generated by the difference between the carrying amount value of shares acquired and their fair value. As of the adoption of IAS 27R (IFRS 10 since 2013)/ CPCs 35 and 36, the effects of all acquisitions of shares from non-controlling shareholders have been recorded in equity if the controlling shareholding remains unaltered. Therefore these transactions no longer generate goodwill or income and previous goodwill premiums on acquisitions by non-controlling shareholders were debited from the Company’s equity.

 

The balance of this item was R$75,388 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

(1)  The amount shown for the 1st quarter of 2016 includes R$476,371 (net of residual values) from the Company's sale of 1,655 of transmission towers to Towerco Latam Brasil Ltda (Note 29). After the sale of these assets, a lease agreement for part of the towers sold was executed, thus ensuing continued transmission of data for mobile services.

 

The transaction was recognized as sale and leaseback as per IAS 17. Management analyzed each asset leased back and classified them as operating or financial lease according to IAS 17 qualitative and quantitative criteria.

 

Risks and benefits relating to these towers have been transferred to their purchasers, excepting for several towers for which transfer of risks and benefits was not possible. For these items, the amount was recognized as deferred revenue  (Note 19).

 

(2)  In the same transaction described in item (1), the Company transfers assignments of current lease agreements of sites and sold sharing agreements (customer portfolio) for R$40,899 (Note 29).

28) EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share were calculated by dividing profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders by the weighted average of the number of common and preferred shares outstanding during the year. There were no transactions that could generate any share issues until the disclosure of consolidated quarterly financial statements; therefore, there are no adjustments of diluting effects inherent to any share issues.

Management compensation

 

Amounts of compensation (consolidated) paid by the Company to statutory members of its board of directors and executive board were R$32,826 and R$65,492 for the six-months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 respectively. Of these amounts, R$25,390 (R$26,693 on June 30, 2015) consisted of salaries, social benefits and charges and R$7,436 (R$38,799 on June 30, 2015) was variable compensation.

 

These amounts were recorded as personnel expenses in the General and Administrative Expenses group (Note 24).

 

For the six-months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, our Directors and Officers did not receive any pension, retirement or similar benefits.

 

30)  INSURANCE

 

The policy of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as that of the Telefónica Group requires insurance coverage for all high-risk assets and liabilities of material worth in management's judgment, as per Telefónica's corporate program guidelines.

 

On June 30, 2016, maximum limits of claims (contractually established for each company consolidated by the Company) for the main assets, liabilities or interests covered by insurance and their respective amounts were R$1,047,826 for operational risks (including loss of profit) and R$75,000 for general civil liability (locally RCG).

 

31)  SHARE-BASED PAYMENT PLANS

 

Telefónica, as the Company's parent company, has different share-based payment plans based on the share quotes, which were also offered to management and employees of its subsidiaries, including Telefônica Brasil and the latter's subsidiaries.

 

The fair value of these options is estimated on the grant date, based on a binomial pricing model reflecting terms and conditions of instruments granted.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries reimburse Telefónica for the amount of the fair value of the benefits granted to management and employees on the grant date.

 

The main plans in effect on June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are detailed below:

a)     Performance & Investment Plan (“PIP”)

Telefónica's Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held on May 18, 2011 approved a long-term program for using Telefónica stock options to reward senior management's commitment, outstanding performance and high potential globally.

 

Participants are not required to pay for their initial stock options and may add to the number of shares to be received at the end of the plan if they decide for a joint investment in their PIP, which requires a participant to buy the equivalent of 25% of the initial shares awarded by Telefónica and hold them until the end of the cycle, when Telefónica will add another 25% on top of the initial amount of shares in their co-investment.

Six-month period ended June 30, 2016

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

Initially, the plan is expected to remain effective for 3 years. The cycles are independent of each other. The number of shares is reported at the beginning of each cycle and will be transferred to participants 3 years after granting date if they have met their targets.

 

Issuance of shares is conditional upon: (i) maintenance of active employment relationship within the Telefónica Group on the cycle consolidation date; and (ii) achievement, by Telefónica, of results representing fulfillment of the objectives established for the plan.

 

The level of success is based on the evolution of Telefónica share earnings, including stock quotations and dividends (Total Shareholder Return - TSR) compared with the evolution of TSRs of companies in a pre-defined comparison base.

 

In 2014, the Company approved the extension of this program for another 3 cycles of 3 years each from October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2017. The number of shares is informed at the beginning of the cycle and three years after granting date, and shares are transferred to participants as long as TSR targets are met.

 

The 2012-2015 cycle was completed in June 2015, achieving the TSR targets. Sixty eight (68) of the Company's executives obtained the right to receive 258,552 Telefónica shares.

 

The 2013-2016 cycle takes place in June 2016 and TSR was not achieve, therefore Telefónica shares were not delivered to the Company’s executives.

 

The following cycles have been scheduled:

 

·       2014-2017 cycle: inception in September 2017, for 61 of the Company's executives (including 2 designated statutory officers), potentially being awarded 243,771 Telefónica shares.

·        2015-2018 cycle: inception in September 2018, for 105 of the Company's executives (including 3 designated statutory officers), potentially being awarded 649,198 Telefónica shares.

 

The maximum number of shares in ongoing cycles as of June 30, 2016 is as follows:

b)    Talent for the Future Share Plan (“TFSP”)

Telefónica's 2014 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting approved a long-term program to reward the commitment, outstanding performance and high potential of its executives globally by awarding Telefónica shares.

 

Participants are not required to pay for their initial options. Initially, the plan is expected to remain effective for 3 years. The cycle began on October 1, 2014 and it will be effective until September 30, 2017. The number of shares is reported at the beginning of the cycle and shares will be transferred to participants 3 years after granting date if their targets have been met.

 

Issuance of shares is conditional upon: (i) maintenance of active employment relationship within the Telefónica Group on the cycle consolidation date; and (ii) achievement, by Telefónica, of results representing fulfillment of the objectives established for the plan. The level of success is based on the evolution of Telefónica shareholder earnings, including their quotations and dividends (Total Shareholder Return - TSR) compared with the evolution of TSRs of Group companies in a pre-defined comparison base.

c)     Global Employee Share Plan (“GESP”)

At its Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held on May 30, 2014, Telefónica approved a plan to incentivize purchases of its shares by the Group's employees at the international level, including employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The plan offers employees the possibility of acquiring Telefónica’s shares and the latter promises to transfer a certain number of its shares to participants free of charge as long as certain conditions are fulfilled.

 

Initially, the plan was expected to remain effective for 2 years. Employees enrolled in the plan were able to acquire Telefónica shares by making monthly contributions of 25 to 150 euros (or the equivalent in local currency) totaling at most 1,800 euros over 12 months (acquisition period).

 

Shares will be transferred on the plan's vesting date, as of July 31, 2017 and on these conditions: (i) remaining in the company's employment during the program's two-year duration (vesting period), subject to certain special conditions related to anybody leaving its employment; and (ii) the exact number of shares to be transferred at the end of the vesting period depends on the number of shares acquired and held by employees. Therefore, employees enrolled in the plan who have remained in the employment of Telefónica Group and have held the shares acquired for another twelve months after the end of the acquisition period will be entitled to receive an additional share free of charge for each share they have acquired and held until the end of the vesting period.

 

The expenses of the Company and its subsidiaries incurred for the above mentioned stock option plans, if applicable, are recorded as personnel expenses in the Costs of Services, Selling, General and Administrative Expenses groups (Note 24) and correspond to R$7,639 and R$6,045 for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

Defined benefit liabilities comprise different components depending on the characteristics of the pensions provided by each plan, and may include actuarial liabilities of supplementary pension liabilities, health care benefits for retirees and their dependents and death and incapacity compensation for participants. This liability is exposed to economic and demographic risks such as: (i) increased medical costs that could impact the cost of health care plans; (ii) salary increases; (iii) long-term inflation rates; (iv) nominal discount rate; and (v) life expectancy of participants and pensioners.

 

The fair value of the plans' assets mainly consists of fixed-income investments (NTNs, LFTs, LTNs, repos, CDBs, debentures, financial notes and holdings in receivables funds [FIDCs]) and equity investments (high liquidity blue chips and ETFs). Due to concentration of investments in fixed income and equity, the plans' assets are primarily exposed to risks inherent to the financial market and the economic scenario such as: (i) market risk for sectors in which investments in equities are concentrated; (ii) risk of events that impact economic environment and market indices in which equity investments are concentrated; and (iii) long-term inflation rates that may erode the profitability of fixed-income investments.

 

The administrators of the post-employment benefit plans sponsored by the Company (Visão Prev and Sistel) attempt to match the flows of assets and liabilities by acquiring fixed-income securities and other long-term assets.

 

Except for the underfunded CTB and healthcare plans - Law 9656/98, all other benefit plans currently have a surplus position. The economic benefit recorded in the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries does not reflect the total surplus determined for these plans. The economic benefit recognized in 'Assets' reflects only that part of surplus that may actually be recovered. The plans' surpluses may be recovered only by reducing future contributions, and since not all plans are currently receiving enough contributions to fully recover surpluses, the economic benefit recorded in assets is limited to the total that may be recovered in accordance with projected future contributions.

 

All income and expenses related to defined benefit plans and hybrid benefit plans, such as employer contributions, costs of current services, and interest charged on net actuarial liabilities are recognized directly in the operating results of the Company and its subsidiary.

 

Actuarial gains and losses relating to defined benefit plans and hybrid benefit plans, in addition to limitations on recoverability of surpluses through future refunds or reduced contributions, are immediately recognized in Other comprehensive income and do not impact the operating results of the Company or subsidiary.

NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six-month period ended June 30, 2016

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

The changes shown in the table above were made based on assumptions and projections produced in the actuarial valuations of December 31, 2015 and 2014. With the exception of contributions and benefits paid by employers, which reflect the values effected over the periods.

 

Of the surplus amounts shown in the table above, the Company recognized consolidated amounts of R$9,390 and R$8,724 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively (Note 10).

 

33)  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

a) Derivative Transactions

 

The purpose of all of the Company's transactions with derivatives is to hedge against the currency risk arising from assets and liabilities in foreign currencies, against inflation risk from its debentures and lease agreements indexed to the IPCA, and against the risk of changed in long-term interest rates risk (TJLP) on part of the debt with BNDES. Therefore any changes in risk-factors lead to adverse effects on the matching entry proposed to be hedged. Therefore, derivatives are not held for speculative purposes and any currency risks are hedged.

 

Management understands that the Company's internal controls for its derivatives are adequate to control risks associated with each strategy for the market. Gains/losses obtained or sustained by the Company in relation to its derivatives show that its risk management has been appropriate.

The Company calculates the effectiveness of the derivative contracts to hedge its financial liabilities and cash flows in foreign currency at the beginning of the operation and on an ongoing basis. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the derivative instruments were effective for the objects of this coverage.

As long as these derivatives contracts qualify as hedge accounting (hedge), the risk covered may also be adjusted to fair value, offsetting the result of derivatives, according to the rules of hedge accounting. This hedge accounting applies both to financial liabilities as the probable cash flows in foreign currency

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was not holding any embedded derivatives contracts.

 

Derivatives Contracts  includes specific penalties for breach of contract. Breach of contract provided for in agreements made with financial institutions leads to the early settlement thereof.

 

a.1) Fair value of derivative financial instruments

The valuation method used to calculate the fair value of financial liabilities (if applicable) and derivative financial instruments was the discounted cash flow method, based on expected settlements or realization of liabilities and assets at market rates prevailing on balance sheet date.

 

Fair values are calculated by projecting future inflows from transactions using BM&FBovespa yield curves discounting these flows to present value using market DI rates for swaps announced by BM&FBovespa.

 

The market values of foreign-exchange derivatives were obtained using the market exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date and projected market rates obtained from the currency's coupon-rate yield curves. The linear convention of 360 calendar days was used to determine coupon rates of positions indexed in foreign currencies, while the exponential convention of 252 business days was used to determine coupon rates for positions indexed to CDI rates. As for the options, it is considered the change in fair value of the same in relation to the initial premium paid.

 

Consolidated derivatives financial instruments shown below are registered with the Brazils’ OTC Clearing House (“CETIP”) and classified as swaps, NDFs and options that do not require margin deposits.

For the purposes of preparing quarterly financial statements, the Company adopted the fair value hedge accounting methodology for its foreign currency swaps x CDI, IPCA x CDI, TJLP x CDI and CDI x Pre for hedging financial debt. Under this arrangement, both derivatives and hedged risk are recognized at fair value.

 

The ineffective portion at June 30, 2016 was R$296 (R$2,836 at December 31, 2015).

 

At June 30, 2016 and 2015, derivative transactions generated consolidated negative and positive income (net) of R$302,745 and R$262,223, respectively (Note 26).

 

a.2) Sensitivity analysis of the Company's risk variables

CVM Resolution 604/09 requires listed companies to comply with CPC 40 Financial Instruments: Disclosures (IFRS 7) by disclosing sensitivity analyses for each type of market risk that management understands to be significant when originated by financial instruments to which the entity is exposed at the end of each period, including all transactions in derivatives.

 

In making the above analysis, each of the transactions with derivative financial instruments was assessed and assumptions included a probable scenario and two others that could adversely impact the Company.

 

On the due dates of each of the transactions, the probable scenario assumed maintaining whatever trend the market had been showing through BM&FBovespa yield curves (currencies and interest rates). In the probable scenario, there is no impact on the fair value of the above-mentioned derivatives. However, the assumptions made for scenarios II and III, as per a CVM instruction, were risk variables deteriorating 25% and 50% respectively.

 

Since the Company only holds derivatives to hedge its foreign-currency assets and liabilities, changing scenarios are tracked by the corresponding hedged items, thus showing that effects are almost non-existent. For these transactions, the Company reported the value of each hedged item and derivative on separate lines in its sensitivity analysis tables in order to show consolidated net exposure in each of the above-mentioned three scenarios at June 30, 2016.

For calculation of the net exposure for the sensitivity analysis, all derivatives were considered at market value and hedged items designated for hedge for accounting purposes were also considered at fair value.

 

The fair values shown in the table above are based on the portfolio position at June 30, 2016, but do not reflect an estimate for realization due to the dynamism of the market, which is constantly monitored by the Company. Using different assumptions could significantly affect estimates.

 

b) Fair value

 

The Company and its subsidiaries assessed their financial assets and liabilities in relation to market values using available information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, both the interpretation of market data and the selection of valuation methods require considerable judgment and reasonable estimates to produce the most adequate realization value. As a result, the estimates shown do not necessarily indicate amounts that could be realized in the current market. The use of different assumptions for the market and/or methodologies may have a material effect on estimated sale values. On June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, neither the Company not its subsidiaries detected any significant and enduring impairment of their financial instruments.

 

The fair value of all assets and liabilities are categorized within the fair value hierarchy described below, based on the lowest level of information that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:


Level 1: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;


Level 2: valuation techniques for which significant lower level of information to measure the fair value directly or indirectly observable; and


Level 3: valuation techniques for which the lowest and significant level of information to measure the fair value is not available.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, there were no transfers between fair value measurements of level 3 and level 1 and 2.

 

The following tables show the composition of financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six-month period ended June 30, 2016

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to several market risks as a result of their commercial operations, debts incurred to finance their business and financial instruments related to their debt.

 

d.1) Currency Risk

 

There is risk arising from the possibility that the Company may incur losses due to fluctuating exchange rates, which add to costs arising from loans denominated in foreign currencies.

 

At June 30, 2016, 15.5% of financial debt was foreign-currency denominated (16.5% at December 31, 2015). The Company enters into derivative transactions (currency hedge) with financial institutions to hedge against exchange rate variation affecting its total indebtedness in foreign currency (R$1,336,652 and R$1,681,968 at June 30, 2016 and 31 December 2015, respectively). Its total debt on these dates was covered by asset positions in currency-exchange hedge transactions with CDI-rate swaps.

 

There is also foreign exchange risk for non-financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which may generate a smaller amount receivable or larger amount payable depending on the exchange rate in the period.

 

Hedging transactions were engaged to minimize the risks associated with exchange-rate variation of non-financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies. This balance is subject to daily changes due to the dynamics of the business. However, the Company intends to cover the net balance of these rights and obligations (US$38,814 thousand and €17,155 thousand to be paid by June 30, 2016 and US$32,030 thousand and €19,079 thousand to be paid by December 31, 2015) to mitigate its foreign exchange risks.

 

d.2) Interest and Inflation Risk

 

This risk arises because the Company may incur losses in the event of an unfavorable change in the domestic interest rate, which may adversely affect financial expenses resulting from the portion of debentures referenced to the CDI and liability positions in derivatives (currency hedge, IPCA and TJLP) geared to floating interest rates (CDI).

 

The debt to BNDES is indexed to the Long-Term Interest Rate (TJLP), which is set on a quarterly basis by the National Monetary Council. In March 2015, the National Monetary Council decided to increase the annual rate to 6.00% from April 1 to June 30, 2015. The TJLP rose 0.50 percentage points from the previous annual rate of 5.50%. In the course of 2015, the TJLP was raised to 6.5% for the period from July to September and to 7.0% for the period from October to December. In 2016, the TJLP was raised to 7.5% for the period from January to March and will remain at this level over the period from April to June.

 

Inflation risk arises from the Minas Comunica debentures of the 1st issue, which are tied to the IPCA and thus may adversely affect financial expenses in the event of an unfavorable change in this index.

 

To reduce exposure to the variable interest rate (CDI), the Company and its subsidiaries invested their surplus cash of R$5,485,077 on June 30, 2016 (R$5,103,103 at December 31, 2015), mostly in short-term CDI-based financial investments (Bank Deposit Certificates). The book values of these instruments approach their fair values, since they may be redeemed at short notice.

 

With the same purpose, at June 30, 2016, the Company had swap transactions - CDI x Pre to partially cover fluctuations in domestic interest rates, the main contractor was R$500,000

 

d.3) Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the possibility of the Company or its subsidiaries not holding sufficient funds to meet their commitments due to different currencies and dates of discharging their rights and obligations.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries structure the maturity dates of non-derivative financial contracts, as shown in Note 20, and their respective derivatives, as shown in the schedule of payments disclosed in this note, to avoid affecting their liquidity.

d.4) Credit Risk

 

The risk arises from the possibility of the Company incurring losses due to difficulty in receiving amounts billed to its customers and sales of prepaid handsets and cards that have been pre-activated for the distribution network.

 

The credit risk on accounts receivable is diversified and mitigated by strict control of the customer base. The Company constantly monitors the level of accounts receivable from postpaid services, and limits bad-debt risk by cutting off access to telephone lines if bills are past due. The mobile customer base predominantly uses the prepaid system, which requires loading beforehand and therefore does not pose credit risk. Exceptions are made for telecommunications services that must be maintained for security or national defense reasons.

 

Credit risk on sales of pre-activated prepaid handsets and cards is managed by a conservative policy for granting credit, using modern credit scoring methods, analyzing financial statements and querying commercial databases, in addition to requesting guarantees.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to credit risk arising from their investments, letters of guarantee received as collateral for certain transactions and receivables from derivative transactions. The Company and its subsidiaries control the credit limits granted to each counterpart and diversify this exposure across first-line financial institutions as per current credit policies of financial counterparties.

 

d.5) Social and Environmental Risks

 

Our operations and properties are subject to various environmental laws and regulations, among other things, governing environmental licenses and records, protection of fauna and flora, air emissions, waste management and remediation of contaminated sites, among others. If we fail to meet present and future requirements, and identify and manage new or existing contamination, we will have to incur significant costs, which include cleaning costs, damages, compensation, fines, activities suspension and other penalties, investments to improve our facilities or change our processes, or interruption of operations. The identification of environmental conditions not currently identified, more stringent inspections by regulatory agencies, the entry into force of more stringent laws and regulations or other unanticipated events may occur and, ultimately, result in significant environmental liabilities and their costs. The occurrence of any of the above factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, our results of operations and our financial condition. According to Article 75 of Law No. 9605 of 1998, the maximum fine per breach of environmental law is R$50,000,000.00 (fifty million reais).

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated)

                                           

From the social point of view, we are exposed to contingent liabilities due to the fact that our structure provides for the hiring of outsourced service providers. These potential liabilities may involve labor claims by service providers which are treated as direct employees and claim joint liability resulting from overtime and occupational accidents. If we obtain unfavorable decision with respect to a significant portion of these contingencies and if we have not recognized a provision for these risks, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, if the labor authorities consider that outsourcing services involves core activities of the company, employment links may be characterized, which would significantly increase our costs and therefore subject the Company to administrative procedures, and the Company is obliged to pay penalties to third.

 

34)  COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES (LEASES)

 

The Company and its subsidiaries lease equipment, facilities and several stores, administrative buildings and sites (radio base stations and towers installed), through several non-cancelable operating agreements expiring at different dates with monthly payments.

Notes to the Pro Forma Consolidated Income Statements

 

a) Base for preparation of the Statements of Income

 

The historical financial information for the Company and GVTPart., as used in the preparation of these statements of income, was obtained from the historical financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and quarterly information for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

 

These pro forma financial reports should be read in conjunction with the historical quarterly information of the companies involved.

 

The Income Statements reflect the effects of acquiring 100% of the share capital of GVTPart. and have been prepared and presented solely for informational purposes assuming the acquisition of GVTPart. to have taken place on January 1, 2015.

 

The Income Statements should not be used as an indication of future consolidated quarterly reports or taken as the Company’s income statements.

 

b) Pro forma adjustments

 

The income statements were prepared and presented based on each company's historical quarterly financial statements and pro forma adjustments were determined based on assumptions and estimates, which we believe are reasonable.

 

The adjustments shown in the income statements reflect: (i) depreciation of surplus value (capital loss) of property and equipment; (ii) amortization of surplus value (capital loss) of intangible assets; (iii) amortizations of trademark; (iv) amortizations of the customer base; (v) Income tax (25%) and social contribution (9%) and (vi) inter-company eliminations as shown below:
