APPRAISAL REPORT

 

INTRODUCTION

1.        Grupo Pão de Açúcar is undertaking a reorganization whereby, according to the managements of NOVA PONTOCOM COMÉRCIO ELETRÔNICO S.A. (NOVA PONTOCOM or SPUN-OFF COMPANY) and RECEIVING COMPANIES, COMPANHIA BRASILEIRA DE DISTRIBUIÇÃO (CBD), VIA VAREJO S.A. (VIA VAREJO), HOLDING 1 and HOLDING 2, the Spin-off will trigger the transfer and the subsequent merger of the total assets and liabilities of NOVA PONTOCOM, which will result in equity and financial benefits to the Parties and optimize the corporate structure of the group to which these companies belong, as it allows each of the Parties to have more autonomy and flexibility in the management of their investments.

2.        HOLDINGS 1 and 2, which will incoporate a portion of the net assets were in process of incorporation at the time of preparation of this report. Capital stock of the holdings shall be

paid up by shares of NOVA PONTOCOM held by minority shareholders.

 

3.        Accordingly, the purpose of this Report is to determine the value of the net worth at book value to be spun-off, taking into consideration the financial condition of NOVA PONTOCOM as at 30 September 2015.

4.        The Report is issued in connection with the audit of the balance sheet of NOVA PONTOCOM prepared for such purpose as at 30 September 2015. The management is responsible for the preparation and appropriate 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, regardless if caused by fraud or error.

5.        The appraisal was conducted in accordance with Brazilian and international auditing rules. Such rules require the compliance with ethical rules by the auditors and that the audit is planned and performed with purposes to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

6.        An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The chosen procedures depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, regardless if caused by fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and appropriate presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are adequate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  accounting

13

 


 

 

estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the

financial statements.

7.        We believe that the audit evidence obtained is enough and appropriate to support the opinion.

FINANCIAL CONDITION OF NOVA PONTOCOM

8.        The assessment is carried out at book value, as set forth in article 226 of Law 6404/76, and based on the financial condition reflected in the Balance Sheet as at 30 September 2015, included as EXHIBIT 1 and whose financial condition of negative equity is broken down as follows:

 

ASSETS

236,205,960.79

(-) LIABILITIES

250,692,486.65

NEGATIVE EQUITY

(14,486,525.86)

 

9.        Such balance sheet was prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil

and considered, for purposes of assessment, that the company shall continue as a going concern. EXHIBIT 2 describes the main accounting practices and policies adopted by NOVA PONTOCOM.

 

10.     NOVA PONTOCOM maintains its accounting records in a regular manner in own books and the balances are duly recorded and reconciled.

11.     In NOVA PONTOCOM’s assets there are tax credits arising from accumulated losses, net of the provision for impairment loss of these assets, in the amount of R$ 4,014,222.34 (four million, fourteen thousand, two hundred and twenty-two and thirty-four cents). As this balance cannot be offset against the RECEIVING COMPANIES’ profit, this balance shall be reduced to zero. Such adjustment was adopted in this Report and is described in EXHIBIT 3 hereto.

12.    In assets, there is also a credit arising from deferred temporary differences, which shall be adjusted to reflect the benefit that shall be transferred, which reduces the balance by R$1,375,225.63.

13.     On 5 November 2015, management used a portion of the balance of the loan agreements entered with shareholders Companhia Brasileira de Distribuição and Via Varejo to partially offset accumulated losses. This offset is in the amount of R$ 19,885,973.83 (nineteen million, eight hundred and eighty-five thousand, nine hundred and seventy-three Reais and eighty-three cents), out of which R$ 10,895,645.22 (ten million, eight hundred and ninety-five thousand, six hundred and forty-five Reais and twenty-two cents) against CBD and R$ 8,990,328.61 (eight million, nine hundred and ninety thousand, three hundred and twenty-eight Reais and sixty-one cents) against Via Varejo.

14

 


 

 

14.     The SPUN-OFF COMPANY has a current account balance with CBD, in the amount of

R$2,406,046.80 (two million, four hundred and six thousand, forty-six Reais and eighty cents). This balance shall be offset upon merger and shall not impact the RECEIVING COMPANY’s net worth.

15.     In liabilities, the SPUN-OFF COMPANY has credits arising from loan agreements with CBD, in the total amount of, after the adjustment referred to in paragraph 13, R$ 88,982,827.52 (eighty-eight million, nine hundred and eighty-two thousand, eight hundred and twenty-seven Reais and fifty-two cents) and with VIA VAREJO, in the total amount of R$ 74,876,159.77 (seventy-four million, eight hundred and seventy-six thousand, one hundred and fifty-nine Reais and seventy-seven cents). These balances shall be offset upon merger and shall not impact the RECEIVING COMPANIES’ net worth.

16.     By virtue of the adjustments described in paragraphs 11, 12 and 13, the financial condition of NOVA PONTOCOM, as at 30 September 2015, for purposes of spin-off, is described in EXHIBIT 4 and is summarized as follows:

 

ASSETS

230,816,512.82

NOVA PONTOCOM COMÉRCIO ELETRÔNICO S.A.

EXHIBIT 2

Main Accounting Practices and Policies

1.          Accounting rules

 

The financial statements were prepared pursuant to the rules issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee CPC and approved by the Federal Accounting Council CFC.

The financial statements were prepared based on the historical cost, except for certain financial instruments, measured at the fair value.

The financial statements  are submitted  in Real, which  is  the functional currency  and the presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.

2.          Preparation and presentation basis

2.1.        Use of judgments and estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to use judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the stated amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and their relevant disclosure, in addition to the disclosure of the contingent liabilities. Uncertainties regarding such assumptions and estimates may deliver results that require material adjustments to the carrying amount of affected assets or liabilities in future fiscal years.

Trials

In the process of enforcing the Company’s accounting policies, Management adopted the following judgments, which significantly affected the amounts recognized in the financial statements:

Estimates and assumptions

We describe below the main assumptions with respect to future sources and other main sources of uncertainty in the estimates on the date of the balance sheet that may pose a significant risk of requirement of material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities during the next fiscal year. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on metrics available at the time of the preparation of the financial  statements. However, the real circumstances  and assumptions regarding future developments may vary according to changes in the market or circumstances beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected on the assumptions as they occur.

2.   Preparation and presentation basis (Continued)

2.1.       Use of judgments and estimates (Continued)

 

22


 

 

a)                       Impairment of non-financial assets

The impairment occurs when the carrying amount of an asset or a cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of the fair value, less any disposal costs, and its value in use. For this closing, the Company performed no impairment tests, which shall be performed as of the end of the year, but there is no evidence of change in the business environment that leaves room to the reversal of the recoverability of the assets.

b)                       Tax credits (PIS, COFINS, and ICMS)

The Company is subject to the methodology for tax debits and credits that may accrue under the applicable laws and regulations. Management took into account the possibilities of realizing the tax credits based on the technical feasibility study on the future realization of taxes, considering the ongoing spin-off and the use of such balances by the RECEIVING COMPANIES.

c)   Provision for judicial claims

The Company is a party to several legal and administrative proceedings. The provisions for legal demands are made for all actions likely to give rise to resolution expenses. The assessment of the probability of loss includes assessment of the available evidence, law hierarchy, available case law, the most recent court decisions and their legal relevance, as well as assessment by outside counsel. Management believes that the provisions for tax, civil, and labor demands are properly presented in the consolidated separate financial statements.

d)                       Stock-based compensation

 

The Company measures the cost of stock-based compensation to employees based on the fair value of the equity instruments at the granting date.

The estimated Fair Value of stock-based compensation transactions requires choice of the most suitable assessment regime, depending on the terms and conditions of the award. This estimate also requires choice of the most suitable sources to be used in the assessment model, including the expected useful life of the share option, the volatility, and the dividend yield, in addition to the use of assumptions in this regard.

3.          Main accounting policies

3.1   Controlled companies

The Company is deemed to be in control when it is exposed or holds rights to varied returns resulting from its engagement with the invested company and when it is able to influence such returns through its power over the invested company.

Specifically, the Company is deemed the parent of an investee only when the Company:

 

          Has power over the invested company (that is, existing rights ensuring the ability to control the investee’s relevant activities);

 

23


 

 

          Is exposed or holds rights to varied returns resulting from its engagement with the investee;

and

                            Can use its power over the investee to influence its returns.

In the events the Company holds a non-controlling interest in the decisions or other rights to an invested company, the Company takes into account all relevant facts and circumstances when analyzing its power over an invested company, such as:

                            Contractual agreements with other holders of voting rights in the invested company;

                            Rights arising from contractual agreements;

                            The Company’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Company reassesses its position of parent of an invested company or the absence of such position if the facts and circumstances indicate changes in one or more of these three control elements.

On 30 September 2015, only LuxCo. is deemed a controlled company, in which the Company holds interest of 95.13% of the capital stock. In case of the other invested companies, the Company is a member of the controlling group, but it holds an interest lower than 50%.

The amount of the investment in these controlled companies is assessed through the Equity Method, based on the invested companies’ financial statements as of September 30, 2015.

3.2.  Impairment of non-current assets

The intangible assets with indefinite useful life are tested for impairment at least once a year, on

31 December, or when there is any sign of impairment. Other assets are also tested for impairment whenever there is any sign thereof.

3. Main accounting policies (Continued)

3.2.  Impairment of non-current assets (Continued) Cash-Generating Units (CGUs)

A cash generation unit is the smaller group of assets generating cash, which assets are, most of the times, independent from the cash of other assets or group of assets.

Impairment indicators

 

In addition to the external sources of data monitored by the Company (economic environment, asset market value, etc.), the operational performance is used as an impairment indicator.

Recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value, less selling costs, and its value

 

 

24


 

 

in use. It is usually determined on an individual basis for each asset. In case such determination

is not possible, the recoverable amount of the CGU group to which the asset belongs is used.

Fair Value is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an ordinary transaction between market players on the date of measurement.

The value in use is the present value of the expected future cash flows from the continuous use of an asset, plus a terminal value. It is assessed internally or by external experts based on:

          forecasted cash flows contained in the business plan or budgets with maximum time horizon of five years. Cash flows beyond the forecast period are estimated through application of a constant or decreasing growth rate;

          the terminal value is determined through application of a perpetual growth rate until the end of the forecasted cash flow. The cash flows and terminal value are discounted at long-term rates, net of taxes, reflecting the market estimates of the temporal cash value and specific risks related to the assets.

Reduction to recoverable value (impairment)

Impairment losses are recognized when the book value of an asset or CGU to which it belongs is higher than its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are accounted for as expenses in the item “Asset impairment loss”.

3. Main accounting policies (Continued)

3.2.        Impairment of non-current assets (Continued) Impairment (impairment) (Continued)

Impairment losses recognized in a previous period are reversed if, and only if, there were changes in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of the assets since the last recognition of an impairment loss. However, the increase in the book value of an asset due to the reversed impairment losses may not exceed the book value that would have been assessed if no impairment loss of the asset had been recognized in previous years.

On 30 September 2015, the Company had no intangible assets.

3.3.   Net equity

Stock-based compensation

 

Employees (including senior executives of the Company) may receive share call options and share awards.

The benefit granted through share option plans, assessed at the fair value upon award, corresponds to an additional compensation. The fair value of the options on the date of the award is recognized as employee benefit expenses during the vesting period.

 

 

25


 

 

The fair value of the options is determined through the Black & Scholes option pricing model,

based on the characteristics of the plan, market data (including the market price of the shares subject to the options, volatility of the share price, and risk-free interest rate) on the date of the award, and on assumptions related to the probability of keeping the relationship of the beneficiaries with the Company until the options become exercisable.

The fair value of the share awards is also determined based on the characteristics of the plan, market data on the date of the award, and on assumptions related to the probability of keeping the relationship of the beneficiaries with the Company until the options become exercisable. In the event there are no restrictions on the exercise related to the share award plan, the expense is fully recognized upon creation of the plan. Otherwise the expense is deferred throughout the vesting period, as long as the conditions to exercise are satisfied.

3. Main accounting policies (Continued)

3.3.          Net worth (Continued) Dividends

When applicable to the distribution of dividends to shareholders of the Company, it is recognized as liabilities in the end of the year, based on the mandatory minimum dividends defined in the bylaws. Any amounts exceeding the minimum dividends shall be accounted for only on the date on which such additional dividends are approved by the shareholders of the Company.

3.4.   Financial liabilities Definitions

Financial liabilities are classified under the category of loans recognized at the amortized cost.

 

Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities, if they expire within one year, or non-current liabilities, if their expiration date is within more than one year.

Recognition and measurement of financial liabilities

a)                            Financial liabilities recognized at the amortized cost

 

The loan agreements with related parties are recognized at the amortized cost through the effective interest rate method.

b)       Financial liabilities recognized at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities that the Company intends to maintain for negotiation in the short term. They are measured at the fair value, and any gains or losses arising from reassessment of the fair value are recognized in the income statement. On 30 September 2015, the Company has no financial liabilities under this classification.

3.5.          Other Provisions

 

 

26


 

 

Provisions are made when the Company has a (legal or constructive) present obligation resulting

from a past event, which amount may be reliably estimated and when there is a probability of outflow of resources that incorporate economic benefits for acquittance of the obligation. The provisions are discounted when the related adjustment is material.

3. Main accounting policies (Continued)

3.5.          Other Provisions (Continued)

Contingent liabilities correspond to a potential obligation that results from past events and which existence shall be confirmed only by the occurrence, or lack of it, of one or more uncertain future events not completely under control of the Company, or present obligations for which no outflow of resources that incorporate economic benefits for acquittance of the obligation are expected. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the balance sheet, but are disclosed in a note to the financial statements.

3.6.          Classification of the assets and liabilities as current and non-current

The assets expected to be realized or that the Company intends to sell or consume during the regular cycle of its operations or within twelve months of the date of the balance sheet are classified as current assets, together with the assets kept with the main purpose of trading and cash and cash equivalents. The other assets are classified as “non-current assets”. The liabilities expected to be settled during the regular cycle of operations of the Company or within twelve months of the date of the balance sheet are classified as current liabilities. The regular cycle of operations of the Company is of 12 months.

All receivable or payable deferred taxes are classified as non-current assets or liabilities.

3.7.    Taxes.

Current Income Tax

 

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current year are defined at the expected recovery amount or the amount to be paid to the tax authorities.

The current income tax related to items directly recognized as shareholder’s equity, when applicable, is recognized in the shareholders’ equity, rather than in the income statement. Management assesses, from time to time, the positions accounted for in the tax returns with respect to situations in which the applicable tax laws and regulations are subject to interpretations and makes provisions when appropriate.

The taxation on the income comprises the Corporate Income Tax (“IRPJ”) and the Social Contribution on Net Profits (“CSLL”) and is calculated by the taxable income regime (adjusted profit) at the applicable rates pursuant to the current laws and regulations: 15% on the taxable income and additional 10% on what exceeds R$240 in taxable income per year, for IRPJ, and 9% for CSLL.

 

 

27


 

 

Main Accounting Practices and Policies

3. Main accounting policies (Continued)

3.7.     Taxes (Continued) Deferred income tax

The deferred taxes are recognized according to the balance sheet. They are calculated by the liability method, which consists in the adjustment of the deferred taxes recognized in previous years due to any changes in the income tax rate.

 

The deferred tax assets correspond to future tax benefits arising from deductible temporary differences and certain adjustments with expected recovery.

The deferred tax liabilities are fully recognized for:

          temporary tax differences, except when the deferred tax liability results from recognition of a non-deductible goodwill impairment loss or from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, has no impact on the accounting profit or on the taxable profit or tax loss; and

          temporary tax differences related to investments in controlled companies, except when the Company is the parent at the time of reversal of the difference and if the reversal is not likely to occur in the near future.
