Independent auditors’ report on the combined consolidated financial statements

The Shareholders and Board of Directors Raízen Energia S.A. and Raízen Combustíveis S.A.:

Report on the Combined Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying combined consolidated statements of Raízen Energia S.A. and Raízen Combustíveis S.A. (“Raízen Group”), which comprise the combined consolidated statements of financial position as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related combined consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended March 31, 2019, and the related notes to the combined consolidated financial statements (collectively referred, the combined consolidated financial statements).

Management’s Responsibility for the Combined Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these combined consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of combined consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the combined consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the combined consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the combined consolidated 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 entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined consolidated financial statements.

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

Opinion

In our opinion, the combined consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raízen Group as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended March 31, 2019 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of matter

We draw your attention to Note 2.1(a) to the combined consolidated financial statements, which describes the basis of preparation and presentation of these combined consolidated financial statements. These combined consolidated financial statements do not necessarily represent the financial position, financial performance, or related cash flows that would have been obtained if the Raízen Group had operated as a single legal entity during the period. The combined consolidated financial statements were prepared to present the financial position, performance, and cash flows of the entities under indirect joint control of Cosan Limited and Royal Dutch Shell and, therefore, may not be useful for other purposes. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Operations

The Civil Police of Paraná State launched, on July 31, 2018, the Operation “Controlled Margin” to collect testimonials and obtain documents from the employees of fuel distributors that operate in Paraná, including RCSA, for suspicious practices to control the final price of the fuel sold in gas stations located in such region.

In parallel, on the same date, in connection with the so-called Operation Dubai, a complaint was presented by the Prosecution Office of the Federal District. The Prosecution Office of the Federal District filed a complaint against, among other parties, RCSA and one employee on the grounds of alleged anticompetitive practice.

To date, there is no final decision or relevant impact on RCSA’s business, derived from these operations. Accordingly, at present there are no facts showing that in the future there will be any penalties that could produce relevant impact on combined consolidated financial statements of the Raízen Group. However, any evolutions and depending on the outcome of the cases, it is possible that in the future the operations might produce impact on RCSA’s financial statements.

Other information

The synergy between RESA and RCSA makes Raízen Group to be currently positioned in a special place in the Brazilian market. The both companies work in a complementary manner, and therefore, reporting their combined consolidated businesses is a key tool to allow the market to evaluate the Raízen Group as a whole.

Although they are not set up as a group pursuant to article 265 of Brazilian Corporation Law (“LSA”), companies of RAÍZEN Group disclose combined consolidated financial statements to provide information that best reflects their gross cash flows from operating activities.

The Raízen Group’s combined consolidated financial statements are being presented exclusively to provide information about all the Raízen Group’s activities in a single financial statement, regardless of the Group’s corporate structure.

As a result, these combined consolidated financial statements do not represent the individual or consolidated financial statements of an entity and its subsidiaries and should not be used as a basis for the calculation of dividends or taxes, or for any other corporate or statutory purposes and does not necessarily provide indicators of the current or future income or loss that would have been earned had these combined companies been operating as one single legal entity.

The combined consolidated financial statements are a single set of financial statements of two or more entities that are jointly controlled. RESA and RCSA used the definition of control in conformity with the IFRS 10—Consolidated Financial Statements, with respect to both the existence of joint control and also to the consolidation procedures.

 

(b)

Basis of measurement

The combined consolidated financial statements were prepared using historical cost as the value base, except, when applicable, for the valuation of certain assets and liabilities such as inventories and derivative and non-derivative financial instruments and biological assets, which are measured at fair value.

 

(c)

Functional and presentation currency

These combined consolidated financial statements are being presented in Reais, functional currency of the Group. All balances have been rounded to the nearest value, except otherwise indicated. The financial statements of each subsidiary included in the consolidation and combination, as well as those utilized as a basis to account for investments under the equity method, are prepared based on the functional currency of each company.

 

(d)

Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of combined consolidated financial statements requires Management to make judgments and estimates and adopt assumptions that affect the amounts presented for revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities in the base date of the financial statements.

These estimates and assumptions are reviewed in a continuous manner. Reviews in relation to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are reviewed and in any future periods affected.

Should there be a significant change in the facts and circumstances on which the estimates and assumptions made are based, there may be a material impact on the Group’s results and financial position.

The significant accounting estimates and assumptions are set out below:

Income tax, social contribution and other taxes payable

The Group is subject to income tax and social contribution, when applicable, in all countries in which it operates. Significant judgment is required to determine the provision for income taxes in these various countries.

In many operations, the final determination of the tax is uncertain. When applicable, the Group also recognizes provisions to cover certain situations in which it is probable that additional tax amounts will be owed. When final result of such issues differs from initially estimated and recorded amounts, these differences affect current and deferred tax liabilities and income (loss) and comprehensive income in the period in which definitive value is determined.

Raízen Group

Management notes to combined consolidated financial statements on March 31

In thousand of Reais – R$, unless otherwise indicated

 

 

Deferred income and social contribution tax

Deferred income tax and social contribution assets are recognized for all tax loss carryforwards not utilized to the extent that it is probable that there will be future taxable income to allow their use in the future. In addition, the Group recognized deferred taxes based on temporary differences determined based on tax basis and book value of certain assets and liabilities, using prevailing rates. Substantial judgment from Management is required to determine the amount of the deferred income tax and social contribution assets that can be recognized, based on the reasonable term and amount of future taxable income, along with future tax rationalization.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are presented at net value in statement of financial position only when there is the legal right and the intention of offsetting them upon calculation of current taxes, related to the same legal entity and the same tax authority. For further details on deferred taxes, see Note 18.d.

Biological assets

Biological assets are measured at fair value on the reporting date, and the effects of changes in fair value between the periods are recognized directly in the cost of products sold. For further information on the assumptions used, see Note 9.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, including goodwill

The accounting treatment given to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets includes estimates to determine the useful life period for depreciation and amortization purposes, in addition to the fair value at acquisition date of the assets acquired through business combinations.

The Group performs, on an annual basis, an evaluation of impairment indicators of recoverable values of goodwill and intangible assets with undefined useful life. Fixed and intangible assets with defined life are subject to depreciation and amortization are impairment tested whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value may not be recoverable.

The determination of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill was allocated also includes the use of estimates and assumptions and requires a significant degree of Management’s judgment.

Provision for legal disputes

The Group recognizes the provision for tax, civil, labor and environmental legal disputes. Determination of the likelihood of loss includes determination of evidences available, hierarchy of laws, jurisprudence available, more recent court decisions and relevance thereof in legal system, as well as evaluation of internal and external attorneys. Such provisions are reviewed and adjusted to take into account changes in circumstances, such as statute of limitations applicable, tax inspection conclusions or additional exposures identified based on new matters or court decisions.

Fair value of financial instruments

When the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities presented in the statement of financial position cannot be obtained from active markets, it is determined by using valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow method. The data for these methods is based on those adopted by the market, when possible. However, when such data are not available, a certain level of judgment is required to establish the fair value. Judgment includes considerations on the data utilized, such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in the assumptions related to these factors can affect the fair value presented for the financial instruments. For further details on financial instruments, see Note 26.

The subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of control acquisition, and continue to be consolidated up to the date when control no longer exists. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group, and utilizing accounting policies consistent and, when required, with the policies adopted by the Group.

Balances maintained between combined consolidated companies, revenues and expenses, unrealized income (loss), arising from transactions between companies are eliminated as a whole.

 

2.3.

Description of significant accounting policies

The accounting policies described below have been consistently applied to all the years presented in these combined consolidated financial statements, except for the adoption as of April 1, 2018 of certain standards, amendments to standards and interpretations to IFRS issued by IASB (Note 2.4).

 

a)

Revenue recognition

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaced IAS 18 Revenue and IAS 11 Construction Contracts.

Except for the reclassification on the statement of financial position of the contracts for exclusive supply rights to the fuel stations from “Intangible assets” to “Contract assets”, which impacts of this reclassification are described on Note 2.4, the Group did not identify relevant effects on revenue recognition. The Group has adopted IFRS 15 using the cumulative effect (without practical expedients), with the effect of initially applying this standard recognized at the date of initial application. the information presented for 2018 has not been restated – i.e. it is presented, as previously reported, under IAS 18, IAS 11 and related interpretations. Additionally, the disclosure requirements of IFRS 15 have not generally been applied to comparative information.

Revenues from sales of products or goods, including sales in the foreign market made by RESA’s subsidiaries, Raízen Trading LLP and Raízen International Universal Corporation, and by RCSA’s subsidiary, Raízen Argentina and its subsidiaries, are recognized when the entity delivers the products and goods to its clients. The deliver is concluded when the client accepts the products and consequently transfers to the buyer the control of the products and goods. Selling prices are established based on purchase orders or contracts. Goods or services whose income is deferred are recorded within “Other obligations” and accounted for as income upon transfer of control to the client or provision of the service itself.

The revenue from the sale of the electric power co-generated is recorded based on the energy available in the network and the tariffs specified in the supply agreements, or the current market price, according to each case. Due to the billing flow, the electric power produced and sold through auctions is initially recognized as prepaid revenue, during the billing to clients and, is only recognized in the statement of income for the year when it is available to be used by clients.

Revenue from leases and storage comprises leases of gas stations and storage of fuel and similar products in the RCSA terminals and its subsidiaries, and is recognized as the services are rendered, under “Other operating revenues, net” (Note 24).

Revenue is presented net of taxes (Excise Tax) (“IPI”), Value-added Tax on Sales and Services (“ICMS”), Social Integration Program—PIS (“PIS”), Social Contribution on Revenues (“COFINS”), Economic Domain Intervention Contribution (“CIDE”), National Institute of Social Security (“INSS”), Fuel Transfer Tax (“ITC”), Added Value Tax (“IVA”) and Gross Income Tax (“IIB”) and other, returns, rebates and discounts, amortization referring to exclusive supply rights, as well as of eliminations of sales between Group companies.

 

b)

Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency (the real) using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions, or the dates of valuation when items are remeasured.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are converted into reais using the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the statement of financial position date, and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the settlement of these transactions and the translation at year-end exchange rates are recognized in the statement of income within “Financial income (losses)”, unless they qualify as hedge accounting, in which case they are recognized in Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Non-monetary items that are measured at the historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the translation rate of the transaction start date. Non-monetary assets that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date when the fair value is determined.

 

c)

Financial instruments – Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

IFRS 9 retains a large part of the existing requirements of IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, the above standard eliminates the old categories of IAS 39 for financial assets: (i) held-to-maturity, (ii) loans and receivables and (iii) available for sale.

IFRS 9 sets out, among others, new requirements for: classification and measurement of financial assets, measurement and recognition of impairment losses on financial assets, hedge accounting and disclosure.

In accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 9, the Group did not restate its prior period financial statements and, when applicable, the differences in the book values of financial assets and financial liabilities resulting from the adoption of IFRS 9 on April 1, 2018, were recognized in retained earnings in equity.

All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized when the Group becomes a party to the instrument’s contractual provisions.

(i)

Financial assets

Measurement

In the initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured: (i) at amortized cost; (ii) at fair value through other comprehensive income; or (iii) at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified after initial recognition, unless the Group changes the business model for the management of financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the reporting period subsequent to the change in the business model.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both conditions below and is not designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss: (i) it is maintained within a business model whose objective is to maintain financial assets to receive contractual cash flows; (ii) and its contractual terms generate, at specific dates, cash flows that are related only to payment of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount.

A financial asset is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it meets both conditions below and is not designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss: (i) it is maintained within a business model whose objective is achieved both by the receipt of contractual cash flows and by the sale of financial assets; and (ii) its contractual terms generate, on specific dates, cash flows that are only payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, as described above, are classified at fair value through profit or loss.

Assessment of business model

The Group carries out an assessment of the purpose of the business in which a financial asset is held in the portfolio, since this better reflects the way in which the business is managed and the information is provided to management.

The information considered is comprised by: (i) the policies and goals established for the portfolio and practical operation of these policies. They include the question of whether management’s strategy focuses on obtaining contractual interest revenues, maintaining a certain interest rate profile, matching the duration of financial assets with the duration of related liabilities or expected cash outflows, or the realization of cash flows through the sale of assets; (ii) how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Group’s management; (iii) risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held in that business model) and the manner in which those risks are managed; how business managers are remunerated – for example, if the remuneration is based on the fair value of managed assets or in contractual cash flows obtained; and (iv) the sales rate, volume and timing of sales of financial assets in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and future sales expectations.

Transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition are not considered sales, which is consistent with the ongoing recognition of the Company’s assets.

Financial assets held for trading or managed with a performance evaluated based on fair value are measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Assessment whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest

For the purpose of assessing contractual cash flows, the principal is defined as the fair value of the financial asset at the initial recognition. “Interest” is defined as a consideration for the amount of cash at the time and for the credit risk associated to the outstanding principal value during a certain period and for other risks and base costs of loans (for example, liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as for the profit margin.

The Group considers the contractual terms of the instruments to evaluate whether the contractual cash flows are only payments of principal and interest. It includes evaluating whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the time or amount of the contractual cash flows so that it would not meet this condition. In making this evaluation, the Company considers the following: (i) contingent events that change the amount or timing of cash flows; (ii) terms that may adjust the contractual rate, including variable rates; (iii) the prepayment and the extension of the term; and (iv) the terms that limit the Group’s access to cash flows of specific assets (for example, based on the performance of an asset).

Impairment of financial assets

The main impact of the adoption is associated with the replacement of the “incurred loss” model of IAS 39—Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement with an “expected credit loss” model. Such impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contractual assets and debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, but is not applicable to investments in equity instruments.

The expected loss matrix adopted by the Group, considers the grouping of clients with similar default characteristics, by sales channel and rating (client risk rating, measured internally).

On April 1, 2018, the impact of the adoption of the expected credit loss was R$ 3,857 (Notes 2.4 and 6).

Classification and measurement of financial assets

IFRS 9 retains a large part of the existing requirements of IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, the above standard eliminates the old categories of IAS 39 for financial assets: (i) held-to-maturity, (ii) loans and receivables and (iii) available for sale.

The adoption of IFRS 9 had no impact on accounting policies of the Group in connection with financial liabilities and derivative financial instruments. The impact of IFRS 9 on classifications of financial assets did not generate any measurement impacts, as shown below based on the balances by class of financial assets on April 1, 2018, whose balance is similar to that disclosed in the annual financial statements as of March 31, 2018:

(ii)

Financial liabilities

They are measured at amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. On March 31, 2018, in the case of the Group, they included loans and financing, balances payable to suppliers and related parties and derivative financial instruments.

 

(iii)

Offset of financial instruments—net presentation

Assets and liabilities are presented net in the statement of financial position if, and only if, there is a current legal and enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and if the intention of offsetting, or realizing the asset and settling the liability simultaneously.

 

(iv)

Derecognition (write-off)

A financial asset is written off when: (i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset expire, and, (ii) the Group transfers its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or assumes an obligation to pay the cash flows received in full to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and (a) the Group transfers substantially all risks and rewards of the assets, or (b) the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards related to the asset, but transfers the control over the asset.

 

(v)

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The new hedge accounting requirements were applied prospectively. The cash flow hedge relationships of highly probable future exports or imports for the purposes of IAS 39 were considered continuous hedge relationships for the purposes of IFRS 9, since they also qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with the new pronouncement.

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as non-deliverable forwards, commodity forward contracts and swaps to provide protection against the risk of change in the foreign exchange rates, prices of commodities, respectively. The derivative financial instruments designated in hedging operations are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which the derivative is obtained, and are subsequently restated also at fair value. Derivatives are presented as financial assets when the fair value of the instrument is positive; and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives during the year are recognized directly in the statement of income, with the exception of the effective portion of the hedge designated as cash flow hedge, which is recognized directly in equity in other comprehensive income.

Even with the adoption of IFRS 9, the Group opted to maintain the hedge accounting practice pursuant to IAS 39, under the transition method prescribed by IFRS 9.

Thus, for hedge accounting purposes, there are the following classifications: (i) fair value hedge, in providing protection against exposure to changes in the fair value of recognized asset or liability or of unrecognized firm commitment, or of identified part of such asset, liability or firm commitment, which is attributable to a particular risk and may affect the result; (ii) cash flow hedge, in providing protection against the change in the cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or with a foreseen transaction that is highly likely and that might affect the result; or (iii) hedge of a net investment in a foreign operating unit.

In the initial recognition of a hedge relationship, the Group formerly classifies and documents the hedge relationship to which they wish to apply hedge accounting, as well the objective and the risk management strategy of company management to put the hedge into effect.

The documentation includes: (i) the identification of the hedge instrument, (ii) the hedged item or transaction, (iii) the nature of the risk to be hedged, (iv) the prospective demonstration of the efficacy of the hedge relationship and (v) the way in which the Group intends to assess the efficacy of the hedge instrument for purposes of offsetting the exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged item or cash flows related to the hedged risk. As regards cash flow hedge, the nature of the high probability of the foreseen transaction to be hedged, as well as the foreseen periods of transfer of the gains or losses resulting from the hedge instruments from equity to income, are also included in the documentation of the hedge relationship.

These hedges are expected to be highly effective to offset changes in the fair value or cash flows. They will be permanently evaluated to verify whether they were indeed highly effective over the course of all the base periods for which they were intended.

In practice, main hedges that meet accounting hedge criteria are as follows:

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is initially recorded directly in equity or comprehensive income (loss), while any ineffective portion is recognized directly in financial income (loss).

Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement when the hedged transaction affects profit or loss, such as when the hedged financial revenue or interest expense is recognized, or when a forecast sale occurs. When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or liability, the amounts recognized in equity are transferred to the initial book value of the non-financial asset or liability. If the forecast transaction or firm commitment is no longer expected to occur, the amounts previously recognized in equity are transferred to the statement of income. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover, or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, any cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in comprehensive income (loss) remains deferred in equity within “Reserve for comprehensive income (loss)” until the forecast transaction or firm commitment affects statement of income.

Net investment hedge in foreign entities

Hedge of net investment in foreign transactions is calculated by similarity to cash flow hedge. Any gain or loss of hedge instrument related to the effective hedge portion is recognized in the equity, under the caption Assets / Liabilities valuation adjustments. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is immediately recognized in the income (loss). Accumulated gains and losses in the equity are included in the result for the year, when the investment abroad is realized or sold.

The types of derivative financial instruments designated as hedge accounting are presented in Note 26.

Fair value hedge and fair value option of certain financial liabilities

The Group designates certain debts, mainly, related to exports prepayments (“PPE”) as liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, in order to eliminate, or significantly reduce, inconsistencies in measurement that would otherwise result in the recognition of gains or losses on the loans and derivatives on different bases. As a result, fluctuations of loans fair value are recognized in caption Financial income, in line “Fair value of liability financial instruments”, classified in “Financial expenses” group.

On September 25, 2018, RESA entered into a swap transaction with due date on January 22, 2027, which is used to hedge the exchange variation of the Senior Notes 2027 issued on January 20, 2017. The hedge instrument, which includes the standard terms of a plain vanilla swap, contains a specific clause that extinguish determined rights of RESA, in case of a default event of the Senior Notes 2027 issued by RESA.

Fair value hedge—Inventories

The Group assigns to the fair value, the imported inventory derivatives with linked derivatives (forward sold) at fair value and details are described in Note 26.e.

 

d)

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the average cost of acquisition or production, not exceeding the ethanol inventory of Raízen Trading and the imported inventory of by-products designated at fair value (Note 2.3.c), not exceeding the net realizable value. Costs of finished products and products in process include raw material, direct labor costs and other direct costs as well as respective direct production expenses (based on regular operating capacity) less loan costs. The net realizable value is the sales price estimated for the normal course of the businesses, less estimated completion execution costs and selling expenses.

The estimated losses for slow-moving or obsolete warehouse inventories are constituted when these inventories have not moved for a period of 2 years in RESA and three months in RCSA and are not considered strategic by the Management.

 

e)

Investments in associated companies and joint ventures

Investments in entities over which the Group has significant influence or shared control are accounted for under the equity method. They are initially calculated in statement of financial position at cost, plus changes after the acquisition of the ownership interest.

The statement of income reflects the share in the results from operations of associated companies and joint ventures based on the equity accounting method. When a change is directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity of the associated company or joint venture, the Group will recognize its share in the changes in the statement of changes in the equity.

After applying the equity accounting method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognize additional impairment on the investment. The Group determines, at each statement of financial position closing date, if there is objective evidence that investment in the associated company and joint venture suffered impairment loss. If so, the Group calculates the amount of impairment loss as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associated company and joint venture and the book value and recognizes the amount in the statement of income.

When there is loss of significant influence on the associated company or shared control of the joint venture, the Group recognizes investment at fair value.

Unrealized gains from transactions between the Group and its associated companies and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest. The accounting policies of the associated companies and joint ventures are changed when required in order to assure the consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

 

f)

Biological assets

Biological assets refer to sugarcane crops.

Sugarcane crops are measured at fair value, excluding the land on which they are located, under the discounted cash flow method.

For sugarcane, the Group uses future cash flows in accordance with the productivity cycle projected for each harvest, taking into consideration the estimated useful life of each crop, the prices of total recoverable sugar, estimated productivities, estimated costs to be incurred with production, harvesting, loading and transportation per planted hectare.

Changes in fair values between periods are allocated to in Statement of Income under “Cost of products sold” caption.

Any land belonging to the Group where biological assets are produced is accounted in property, plant and equipment caption.

 

g)

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment items (sugarcane planting included) are stated at historical acquisition or construction cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, when applicable.

The cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of assets. The cost of assets built by the Company includes materials and direct labor, as well as any other costs attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition requires for them to operate in the manner intended by Management, and loan costs on qualifiable assets. Borrowing costs relating to funds raised for works in progress are capitalized until the projects are concluded.

RESA and its subsidiaries perform the main maintenance activities scheduled for their manufacturing units on an annual basis. This usually occurs between the months from January to March, with the objective of inspecting and replacing components.

The main annual maintenance costs in RESA and its subsidiaries include costs of labor, materials, outsourced services and overhead allocated during the off-season period. These costs are classified as frequent replacement parts and components, in property, plant and equipment, and are fully amortized in the following crop season.

The cost of an equipment item that must be replaced on an annual basis at RESA and its subsidiaries is accounted for as a component of the equipment costs and depreciated over the following crop. The costs of normal periodic maintenance are accounted for in expenses when incurred as the replaced components do not improve the production capacity of the asset or introduce refinements in the equipment.

In RCSA and its subsidiaries, estimated costs to be incurred with removal of fuel storage tanks are estimated and recorded as part of the cost of property, plant and equipment, with a corresponding entry to the provision that supports such costs in current and non-current liabilities, depending on the estimated obligation term.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. The cost of any renewal to increase useful life should be activated and included in the asset’s book value, if it is probable that future economic benefits following the renewal will exceed the performance standard initially assessed for the existing asset and that such benefits will accrue to the Group. The main refurbishments are depreciated over remaining useful lives of related assets.

Gains and losses from divestitures are determined by the comparison of results with the book value and are recognized in the statement of income under “Other operating revenues, net”.

Lands are not depreciated. On March 31, 2019 and 2018 depreciation of such assets was calculated based on estimated useful life wear and tear for each asset. The annual weighted average depreciation rates are as follows:

 

Class of fixed assets

   2019      2018  

Buildings and improvements

     3%        2%  

Machinery, equipment and facilities

     5%        5%  

Aircrafts and vehicles

     8%        8%  

Furniture and fixtures and IT equipment

     13%        14%  

Sugarcane planting

     20%        20%  

Other

     5%        5%  

Residual values and the useful lives of material assets are reviewed and adjusted, if required, at the end of each year.

h)

Leases

Whether a contract is, or contains, a lease is determined based on the substance of the contract at the inception date.

Under finance lease contracts where all risks and rewards are transferred to the Group, incidental to ownership of the leased asset, they are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property, or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognized in the statement of income. A leased asset is depreciated during its useful life or the term of the lease, the shorter of the two, save when there is evidence that the leased assets will be acquired on the agreement’s expiry.

Operating lease agreements are recognized as operating expenses in the statement of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Goodwill

Goodwill is represented by the positive difference between the paid for the acquisition of a business and the net fair value of assets and liabilities of the acquired company. Goodwill in the acquisition of subsidiaries is disclosed in Intangible Assets caption in combined consolidated financial statements.

The goodwill is maintained at cost value, less possible impairment losses, when applicable, and the accounting test is carried out at least every year.

(a)

Software license

Licenses acquired for computer programs are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives by the Group. Expenditures related to maintaining software are recognized as expenses as incurred. The expenditures directly associated with the software, controlled by the Group and which will probable generate economic benefits in excess of the costs for more than one year, are recognized as intangible assets.

 

(b)

Brands

It corresponds to the right of use of the brand Shell, contributed in the formation of Raízen by the shareholder Shell, recognized at historical cost. The brand is amortized on a straight-line basis over the validity of the right.

 

(c)

Agricultural partnership and sugarcane supply agreements

These intangible asset classes were acquired in a business combination were recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. They have a defined useful life and are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the supplier and client relationship.

 

(d)

Public concession rights of use

The concession rights correspond to the right to operate the concessions related to the activity of cogeneration of electric energy of RESA, being amortized on a straight-line basis over the concession term.

j)

Impairment of non-financial assets:

The Group assesses every year whether there are indicators of an asset’s loss of value. In the event such indicators are identified, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. The recoverable value of an asset is the greater among: (a) fair value less costs that would be incurred to sell it, and (b) its value in use. When required, value in use is usually determined based on the discounted cash flow (before taxes) from the continued use of the asset until the end of its useful life.

Regardless of the existence of impairment indicators, goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, if any, are tested for impairment at least once a year.

When the book value of an asset exceeds its recoverable value, the loss is recognized as an operating expense in the statement of income.

 

k)

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when: (i) the Group has a present legal or non-formalized obligation as a result of past events; (ii) it is likely that an outflow of funds will be required to settle the obligation; and (iii) the amount can be reliably estimated.

 

l)

Employee benefits

The Group has a defined contribution and partial defined benefit plan, in which maintains a private pension plan for all of its employees.

The Group recognizes a liability based on a methodology that considers a number of factors determined by actuarial estimates, which employ assumptions for defining pension plan costs or revenue.

Gains and losses arising from adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are stated directly in equity as other comprehensive income, when they occur.

Past costs of services are immediately recognized in the income figures.

The Group recognizes an estimated obligation when it is contractually compelled or when there is a past practice that created a constructive obligation.

 

m)

Income tax and social contribution

Revenues (expenses) tax and social contribution expenses of the year include current and deferred taxes. Income taxes are recognized in the statement of income, except to the extent they are related to items directly recognized in equity or comprehensive income, when applicable. In that case, the tax is also recorded in equity or comprehensive income.

The current and deferred income tax and social contribution charge is calculated based on enacted, or substantially enacted, tax acts, at the statement of financial position date of countries in which the Group’s entities operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates the positions taken by the Group in the calculations of income tax with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretations; and establishes provisions when appropriate, on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

 

F-28


Raízen Group

Management notes to combined consolidated financial statements on March 31

Income tax is computed on taxable income at the rate of 15%, plus a 10% surtax for income exceeding R$ 240 in the 12-month period, whereas social contribution is computed at the rate of 9% on taxable income, recognized on the accrual basis. That is, on a compound basis, the Group is subject to a theoretical tax rate equivalent to 34%.

Deferred income tax and social contribution in connection with tax losses, social contribution negative base and temporary differences are shown as net in the statement of financial position when there is a legal right and an intention to offset these on calculation current taxes related with the same legal entity and the same tax authority. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities in different entities or countries are in general presented separately, and not at net value. Deferred taxes are calculated based on the tax rates in force when they are realized or reviewed annually.

Tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which these temporary differences can be offset.

Prepayments or current amounts that can be offset are presented in current and non-current assets, in accordance with their expected realization.

 

n)

Capital and remuneration to shareholders

The capital is comprised of common and preferred shares. Incremental expenses attributed directly to share issues, if any, are shown as a deduction from equity, as an additional capital contribution, net of tax effects.

In the parent companies RESA and RCSA, the only existing class A preferred share as well as each common share, is entitled to one vote on resolutions by each company’s shareholders’ meetings, as well as R$ 0.01 (one centavo) fixed annual dividends. Such voting rights are restricted to subsidiaries and not to the Group.

Class B preferred shares issued by RESA, have no voting rights or intended to refund assets, chiefly represented by tax benefits contributed by shareholders Cosan and Shell respectively, as these are employed by the Group.

Class D preferred shares have no voting rights and are entitled to a fixed annual dividend in RESA as well as in RCSA, to shareholder Shell. Shareholder compensation will take place in the form of dividends and/or interest on shareholders` equity, based on the limitations defined in RESA and RCSA company Bylaws and in legislation in force.

Class E preferred shares issued by RCSA have voting rights and are entitled to a fixed annual dividend to shareholder Shell. Shareholder compensation will take place in the form of dividends and/or interest on shareholders` equity, based on the limitations defined in RCSA company Bylaws and in legislation in force.

o)

Business combinations

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is equal to the fair value of the assets transferred, liabilities assumed and equity instruments issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, when applicable. Acquisition-related costs are recorded in the statement of income as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Non-controlling interests to be recognized are determined for each acquisition carried out.

The excess of the consideration transferred plus the acquisition-date fair value of any previous ownership interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. For acquisitions in which the Group attributes fair value to non-controlling interests, the determination of goodwill also includes the value of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and the goodwill is determined considering the Group’s and non-controlling interests. When the consideration transferred is less than the fair value of the net assets of the acquired subsidiary, the difference is recognized directly in the statement of income for the year as bargain purchase.

 

p)

Environmental issues

The group reduces risks in connection with environmental issues by means of operating procedures and controls and investments in equipment and pollution control systems. The Group recognizes a provision for losses with environmental expenditures inasmuch as it is necessary to undertake remedial actions for the damages caused.

Other information

On April 1, 2018, there were no impacts on the statements of income and comprehensive income as a result of the amendments made to the new IFRS mentioned above.

 

2.5.

New IFRS and IFRIC Interpretations (IASB Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee) applicable to financial statements

The following new standard and standard interpretation were issued by the IASB but are not yet effective for the year ended March 31, 2019.

IFRS 16 – Leases

IFRS 16 introduces a single model of accounting of leases in the statement of financial position to lessees. A lessee recognizes an asset of right of use that represents its right to use the leased asset, and a lease liability that represents its obligation to make lease payments. Optional exemptions are available for short-term leases and low value items. The lessor’s accounting remains similar to the current standard, that is, lessors continue to classify leases as financial or operating leases.

IFRS 16 replaces the current lease standards, including IAS 17—Commercial Lease Operations and IFRIC 4, SIC 15 and SIC 27—Complementary Aspects of Commercial Lease Operations and it is effective for fiscal years starting or after January 1, 2019 (in case of the Group, as of April 1, 2019).

Pursuant to this accounting standard, the most significant impact identified is that the Group will recognize new assets and liabilities for operating leases, mainly of fuel distribution bases, lease of gas stations, areas in airports, ships, properties in general and land, whose impacts are between R$ 4,250,000 and R$ 4,750,000. In addition, the nature of expenses related to these leases will be changed, since IFRS 16 replaces the linear operating lease expense for expenses of depreciation of the right of use and interest on lease liabilities, whose nominal discount rate will be of approximately 100% of CDI.

The Group opted for the cumulative effect approach as a transition methodology; that is, without the need to restate comparative information. Calculations will be based on the lease liability on the transition date.

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainties in relation to tax treatments

This interpretation clarifies how to apply recognition and measurement requirements of IAS 12 – Income Taxes in case there is uncertainty on income tax treatments. In these circumstances, the entity must recognize and measure its current or deferred tax assets or liabilities by applying requirements of IAS 12, based on taxable income (tax loss), tax bases, taxable losses not used, tax credits not used, and tax rates, determined in accordance with this interpretation. This interpretation will become effective as of annual periods started as of or after January 1, 2019 (in case of the Group, as of April 1, 2019) and impacts are being evaluated by Group’s Management.

Besides the aforementioned standards, there are no IFRS or IFRIC interpretations that are effective and as Management’s current understanding, may result in relevant impacts to the Group.

     (120,606 ) 
  

 

 

 

Reversal of estimated loss, net

     3,877  
  

 

 

 

March 31, 2018

     (116,729 ) 
  

 

 

 

Reversal of estimated loss, net

     87,731  
  

 

 

 

March 31, 2019

     (28,998 ) 
  

 

 

 

On March 31, 2019, the reversal of estimated loss, net corresponds, mainly, to balances of ICMS in the States of Amazonas and Rondônia, due to final judgements of lawsuits in favor of RCSA, as well as the evolution of analysis of the processes conducted by the governments of those States.

Biological assets

The Group’s biological assets correspond to uncut sugarcane cultivated in sugarcane crops that will be used as raw material for production of sugar, ethanol and bioenergy at harvest time. Fair value is evaluated using the cash flow discounted at present value method. Valuation model considers present value of cash flows expected to be generated, including two-year projections, considering estimates for the cutting effective date of uncut sugarcane.

Planted areas refer only to sugarcane plantations, and do not consider planted land and are recognized as property, plant and equipment. The following assumptions were used in the determination of the fair value:

 

     2019      2018  

Estimated harvest area (hectares)

     435,341        447,277  

Amount of ATR per hectare

     10.18        10.27  

Average ATR price per Kg projected (R$/Kg)

     0.62        0.60  

As of March 31, 2019, cash flows were discounted at 6.72% (6.37% in 2018) which is the WACC (Weighted Average Capital Cost) of RESA.

The Group periodically reviews assumptions used to calculate biological assets, adjusting it in case there are significant changes in relation to those previously projected.

Roll-forward of biological assets (sugarcane) is detailed below:

  (1)

It refers to: (i) Acquisition of Santa Candida and Paraíso plants in the amount of R$ 2,288; and (ii) Acquisition of Ryballa in the amount of R$ 7,734.

Fair value estimate could increase (decrease) if:

 

  •  

Estimated ATR price was higher (lower);

 

  •  

Estimated productivity (tons per hectare and ATR quantity) were higher (lower); and

 

  •  

Discount rate were lower (higher)

The Group’s sugarcane planting operations are exposed to changes from climate changes, pests and diseases, forest fires and other forces of nature.

Weather conditions may historically cause fluctuations in the sugar and alcohol industry and therefore in Group’s operating income because they affect crops by means of increasing or reducing harvests. Moreover, RESA’s businesses are subject to seasonal fluctuations determined by the sugar cane growth cycle in Brazil’s Center-Southern region.

Credits from legal disputes on which a final judgment favorable to RESA was passed in February 2007, December 2013 and 2015, which were not part of the net assets contributed by Cosan to set up the Group. Therefore, RESA recognized a liability in the same amount, classified as current and non-current liabilities in the related parties caption, given that RESA has the obligation to reimburse those receivables to Cosan when they are actually collected. These credits yield IPCA-E (Special Amplified Consumer Price Index) and Selic rate change plus annual interest of 6% as applicable.

  (2)

Receivables from a final judgment in favor of Raízen Araraquara, a subsidiary of RESA, relating to the lawsuit of the Instituto do Açúcar e do Álcool (“IAA”) against the Federal Government, filed by Copersucar in 1990. The lawsuit involves the awarding of compensation for losses caused to the mills by the Federal Government when setting prices below market prices. The amount of R$ 221,373 was recognized in the year ended March 31, 2019, under the caption Other operating revenues, net (Note 24).

Brazilian Treasury Certificates are government bonds issued by the Brazilian Treasury within the Special Agriculture Industry Securitization Program—PESA, with a 20-year original maturity (falling due between 2018 and 2023) and which pledged to secure its related financing transaction called PESA. These bonds bear annual compound interest of 12%, plus the IGP-M (General Market Price Index). Their value on maturity date tends to be equivalent to the principal value of the debt due under PESA and to be used for settlement. During the year ended March 31, 2019, RESA redeemed the amount of R$ 380,984 for PESA’s settlement.

Investment transactions in associated companies occurred in the year ended March 31, 2019

 

(i)

Additions to investment

Capital increase in Logum Logística S.A. (“Logum”)

In the year ended March 31, 2019, capital increases were resolved, approved and subscribed totaling R$ 104,400. The sum underwritten by RESA in these transactions totaled R$ 20,880, fully paid-in in cash.

Capital increases in Uniduto Logística S.A. (“Uniduto”)

In the year ended March 31, 2019, capital increases were resolved, approved and subscribed totaling R$ 10,440. The sum underwritten by RESA in these transactions totaled R$ 4,852, fully paid-in in cash.

In these operations, there were no changes in the percentage of interest in capital of the investee, since all shareholders effected capital contributions in proportion to their existing holding.

Capital increase of the Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira (“CTC”)

During the CTC’s Board of Directors’ Meeting held on December 14, 2018 a R$ 5,652 capital increase in CTC was approved, without an issue of new shares. On February 6, 2019, the capital increase was paid in and ratified by the Board of Directors. Accordingly, RESA recognized an investment of R$ 1,061, according to the interest held by it.

 

(ii)

Revaluation of investment

According to accounting annual evaluation of investment recoverability at Logum pursuant to IAS 36—Asset Impairment and IAS 28—Investments in Associated Company and Subsidiary, on March 31, 2019, RESA recognized a reversal of the estimated impairment losses, previously recorded, in the amount of R$162,384, being R$131,792 in statement of income for the year under “Other operating revenues, net” caption (Note 24), referring to direct interest in Logum, and R$30,592 under “Equity in investees” caption, referring to RESA’s indirect interest in Logum via associated company Uniduto.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, Logum obtained capital contributions from the shareholders, completed its corporate restructuring process and contracted a long-term loan. These main factors allowed Logum to implement and develop Phase I of the project, by balancing the capacity to collect and deliver fuels and having access to the largest consumer center in the country, the metropolitan region of São Paulo. Furthermore, Logum negotiated supply agreements and signed contracts to use Transpetro’s infrastructure with Petrobras. Thus, the current infrastructure of the project is the backbone of the next business plan stages, which will increase volumes as system gains capillarity, connecting ethanol producers and consumers.

These factors and assumptions were considered sufficient and resulted in a positive cash flow projection for the project, higher than the investment’s accounting balances.

Impairment analysis for cash generating units containing goodwill

The Group tests goodwill for impairment at least on an annual basis.

At RCSA, the Management, to determine recoverable value, uses the value in use method, which is based on projection of expected discounted cash flows of cash generating units (“CGU”) determined by Management based on budgets that take into consideration assumptions related to CGU and its location. Business management of RCSA in Brazil considers them as an integrated distribution chain comprising a single cash-generating unit, using information available in the market and prior performances.

Discounted cash flows were prepared for a period of five years and taken to perpetuity without considering real growth rate, based on past performance and on expected market development. Cash flows deriving from continued use of related assets are adjusted at specific risks and use pre-tax discount rate, calculated as 6.72% p.a. (6.37% in 2018).

Main assumptions used were: prices based on Market expectation, growth rates estimated for business line and extrapolations of growth rates based on Brazilian Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

In RESA, goodwill is allocated to CGU’s identified according to operating region. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, the regional branches are presented as follow:

RESA, to determine recoverable value, uses the value in use method, which is based on projection of expected discounted cash flows of cash generating units determined by Management based on budgets that take into consideration assumptions related to each CGU using information available in the market and prior performances. Discounted cash flows were prepared over a period of 20 years, according to the reasonable recovery time of the assets related to the activities of the RESA’s economic industry. The cash flow and perpetuity were calculated disregarding real growth, based on past performance and on expected market development. The discount rate used was 6.72% per annum (6.37% in 2018).

Main assumptions used for RESA were: expected sales price of commodities in the long-term, productivity of agricultural areas, performance of Total Recoverable Sugar (“ATR”), and operating and administrative costs. Every cash flow was discounted at rates that reflect specific risks related to relevant assets in each cash-generating unit.

As a result of annual tests, no significant loss was recognized in the years ended March 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. As aforementioned, determination of assets recoverability depends on the accomplishment of certain assumptions that are influenced by market, technological, and economic conditions prevailing at the time in which recoverability is tested and, therefore, it is not possible to determine if recoverability losses will occur in the future and, in case they occur, if they will be material.

  (i)

The balance payable to suppliers of materials and services mostly consists of acquisitions of machinery and equipment for production facilities, distribution hubs and own reseller stations, hired services.

  (ii)

The balances payable to suppliers of oil, ethanol and oil by-products consist of purchases made by the Group.

  (iii)

Sugar cane harvesting, which usually takes place between April and December every year, has a direct impact on the balance of trade accounts payable to sugar cane suppliers and for cutting, loading and transportation services.

  (iv)

The Group has Agreements Related to Payments to financial institutions (“Agreements”) that permit certain suppliers to advance their receivables referring to products and services rendered to the Group, directly with financial institutions. In said Agreements, supplier may choose to grant or not and the financial institutions decide whether to acquire or not said credit, without interference from the Group. Using the Agreements does not imply any change in notes issued by the supplier, and the same original value and payment term conditions are maintained, which, as average, is around 60 to 90 days, period that is consistent with the Group’s recurring operating cycle.

Realization of deferred tax assets

When evaluating deferred taxes’ recovery capacity, Management considers future taxable income projections and movements in temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized only when it is probable that they will be used in the future. Possibility of using tax losses and negative bases’ balances does not expire, but the use of these losses accumulated in prior years is limited to 30% of taxable annual income.

On March 31, 2019, the Group expects to realize deferred tax assets as follows, including tax loss assets in certain companies, negative basis and temporary differences:

On March 31, 2019, presented tax losses and social contribution negative bases’ balance of certain Group’s companies for which no deferred tax assets were established, as their recovery is not considered as probable total R$ 12,169 (R$ 11,688 in 2018).

(1)

INSS

The amount recorded as provision for INSS corresponds to amounts related to social security contributions levied on billing, pursuant to the terms of Article 22-A of Law no. 8.212/91, whose constitutionality is being challenged in a lawsuit. RESA made judicial deposits related to said lawsuit in the amount of R$ 338,392 (R$ 287,157 in 2018). Accordingly, both balances are presented net in these financial statements.

 

(2)

ICMS

Amount recorded as provision for ICMS credits is represented by: (a) tax assessments received that, despite being defended, are considered as probable loss by the Group’s legal advisors; (b) using finance credits and charges in matters on which understanding of the Group’s management and tax advisors differ from tax authorities’ interpretations, (c) questioning of the breach of accessory obligation (CAT Ordinance) in the period from January 2001 to December 2004, related to the methodology for calculating ICMS credits in the state of São Paulo, in the restated amount of R$ 115,514 (R$ 112,866 in 2018) and the assessment arising from FOB fuel sales transactions by Shell to some customers (in SP) which were later on declared improper, in the period from October 2003 to May 2004, in relation to which the ruling of the motion for clarification of judgment is currently being awaited, in the restated amount of R$ 69,689 (R$ 68,514 in 2018); and (d) ICMS credit on interstate operations after Law 87/96 of the States of Minas Gerais and Amazonas, comprising the period from 1996 to 2012, and referring to fuels purchased from Petrobras and resold by means of interstate transactions (exempt from ICMS tax), for which a provision was formed in the restated amount of R$ 267,792 (R$ 262,752 in 2018), since Shell obtained an unfavorable decision in the court of last resort.

IPI

Amount recorded as a provision for IPI credits is represented by: (a) tax assessment received referring to imported merchandise; (b) offset of credits deriving from inputs used in exempt shipments; (c) “IPI Seletividade” for the period from November 1992 to December 1995, a matter recently judged by the Federal Supreme Court (“STF”) using the General Repercussion systematic process (RE n° 592.145, theme 080) in an unfavorable way to the corporate taxpayer; and (d) tax assessment notice recognized in this year-end in the amount of R$ 54,223, previously classified with likelihood of possible loss.

 

(4)

PIS and COFINS

Amount recorded as a provision for PIS and COFINS credits is as follows: (a) contribution of period from 1997 to 1999 referring to merger of company; and (b) IPI credits used to offset PIS and COFINS deriving from inputs used in exempt shipments.

 

(5)

Lawyers’ fees

The Group contracts law firms to defend it in civil, tax and labor lawsuits. Some contracts provide for attorneys’ remuneration as a percentage on successful lawsuit value. The Group records a provision for amounts payable to law firms referring to lawsuits whose likelihood of loss is possible or remote. Amount currently recorded as a provision refers mainly to lawsuits whose financial responsibility is borne by Shell, as they were originated in a period prior to the Group’s establishment and, therefore, are reimbursable.

 

(6)

Income tax and Social Contribution taxes (IRPJ and CSLL)

These refer to decisions related to different offsets carried out by Perdcomp related to IPI credits used to offset IRPJ and CSLL. Said offset stopped being homologated because a tax assessment notice was issued to stop recognition of credits based on the fact that, in the period from January 2008 to September 2010, (a) RCSA did not segregate and pay IPI owed at the rate of 8% on certain transactions classified in TIPI (table of IPI levy), and (b) RCSA did not reverse IPI credits referring to inputs used for industrialization of certain products classified in TIPI, considering that shipment of such products are not taxed.

In first item, controversy occurs due to divergence about classification of products as oil by-products and, in the second item, it occurs because authorities do not recognize the right to maintain IPI credits on shipment transactions that are exempt or not taxed.

 

(7)

CIDE

RCSA recorded a provision for CIDE on services provided in oil and natural gas exploration and production activities carried out before the Raízen’s establishment, whose balance on March 31, 2019 totals R$ 378,171 (R$ 370,468 in 2018). Owed amounts were deposited in escrow, at the same amount, reason why any reimbursement will be made by RCSA. Accordingly, both balances are presented net in these financial statements.

Civil, labor and environmental

The Group is party to various civil actions consisting of (i) damages for material losses and pain and suffering; (ii) disputes on contracts; (iii) class action to stop the burning of sugar cane straw; (iv) enforcements of environmental decisions; (v) reparation of environmental damages causes by fuel leakages and, (vi) contractual, real estate and credit recovery, including discussions about contract breaches, possession of the Group’s properties and recovery of amount not paid by clients.

The Group is also party to several labor complaints filed my former employees and employees of service providers who demand, among other things, payment for overtime work, night shift premium and hazardous duty premium, readmission into the job, return of payroll discounts, such as trade union optional and mandatory contributions, among others.

The main environmental actions are related to environmental remediation to be carried out at gas stations, distribution hubs, airports and client distribution centers and they include the removal of contaminated material, treatment of the land, laboratory tests and post-remediation monitoring.

Legal disputes are considered as possible loss and, thus, no provision for legal disputes has been recognized in the combined consolidated financial statements.

ICMS

Refers substantially to: (i) part related to fine of tax assessment issued due to alleged lack of ICMS payment and non-compliance with accessory obligation, in agricultural partnership for on-demand industrialization in periods from May 2005 to March 2006 and from May 2006 to March 2007; (ii) ICMS levied on crystal sugar for export that, as understood by tax agent, is classified as semi-finished product and, in accordance with ICMS regulation, would be subject to taxation; (iii) ICMS levied on alleged divergences on sugar and ethanol inventories deriving from comparison between magnetic tax files and inventory registration books; (iv) tax assessment related to charge of ICMS rate difference deriving from ethanol sales to companies located in other states of the Federation, which had their state registrations canceled; (v) requirement of ICMS deriving from disallowances of diesel credits used in agricultural-industrial production process, the defense was presented because it is essential to the activities of the Company based on article 155, §2, I of Federal Constitution and Complementary Law 87/96; (vi) lack of reversal of ICMS credits; (vii) lack of full reversal of ICMS-ST credits for ICMS tax substitution (“ICMS-ST”); (viii) non-compliance with ancillary obligations; (ix) ICMS-ST requirement in inter-state sales to industrial clients; (x) undue use of credits from Controls for ICMS tax Credits on Fixed Assets (“CIAP”); (xi) inventory difference; (xii) alleged undue use of untimely credits related to ICMS-ST on diesel in the capacity of final consumer; (xiii) alleged undue use of deemed credit; and (xiv) alleged undue use of tax credits related to freight (transportation services) since the subsequent operation is exempt or not taxed.

 

(2)

INSS

Possible legal disputes related to INSS involve mainly: (i) review of contingencies linked to IN MPS/SRP No. 03/2005, regarding the period from 2005 to 2011, which are currently assessed as a low probability of having an unfavorable result due to probable recognition of cadence. Regulatory Instruction no. 03 of 2005, which restricted constitutional immunity of social security contributions on revenues from export and started to tax exports carried out through trading companies; (ii) requirement of contribution to SENAR in direct and indirect export transactions for which Federal Revenue Service (“RFB”) understands that constitutional immunity does not apply; and, (iii) mandatory payment of social security contribution on resale of merchandise in domestic market and to third parties that are not included in calculation basis of social contribution levied only on gross revenue from establishment production and not from acquired goods.

IPI

SRF Regulatory Instruction no. 67/98 supported procedure adopted by industrial establishments that made shipments without recording and paying IPI related to transactions with cane sugars: demerara, high-quality crystal, special crystal, extra special crystal, and granulated refined sugar carried out in the period from July 6, 1995 to November 16, 1997, and with refined amorphous sugar in the period from January 14, 1992 to November 16, 1997. This standard was carried into effect in the respective proceedings brought by Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, whose likelihood of loss is classified as possible, according to the assessment of the Group’s legal advisors.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, RESA reviewed tax assessment notices in the amount of R$ 95,698. Of this amount, R$ 54,959 began to be classified with chance of probable loss, and R$ 40,739 were reversed due to the conclusion of the suits.

IRPJ, CSLL, PIS, COFINS and IOF

Main lawsuits refer to: (a) assessment notices related to the offset of credits from the Semi-Annual PIS regime and offsets of federal taxes not ratified by the Federal Revenue Service, for which the Group has been questioning these collections at the proper levels; (b) assessment notices for the collection of IRPJ and CSLL for the years 2011, 2012 and 2013, derived from the exclusion of income from amortization of goodwill on investments evaluated under the equity. This goodwill was contributed by Cosan Lubrificantes e Especialidades S.A., formerly Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A., to RCSA, whose assessment was filed against it, relating to years 2009 to 2011. The Group presented a challenge requesting full cancellation of tax assessment notice issued; (c) disallowances of PIS and CONFINS credits, in the non-cumulative system, provided for in the Laws No. 10.637/2002 and 10.833/2003. These rejections arise, in summary, due to the restrictive interpretation of the Federal Revenue Service in regard to the concept of inputs as well as differences regarding the interpretation of the referred to laws. Such questions are at the administrative level; (d) to requests of reimbursement of PIS and COFINS linked to offset processes. After presentation of Terms of Disagreement in March 2013, DRJ (Judgment Office) determined write-off of processes in progress, so that PIS and COFINS credit rights referring to certain quarters of years 2008 and 2009 are recalculated; (e) tax assessment notices related to unconstitutionality of expansion of PIS/COFINS calculation basis brought by Law no. 9.718/98, in which STF considered as unconstitutional; (f) assessment notices filed by the RFB for the collection of IRPJ and CSLL from prior years relating to offsets of tax losses, deductibility of amortization expenses of goodwill and taxation of differences of revaluations of assets comprising fixed assets; (g) lawsuit in 2018, related to the disallowance of goodwill based on expected future profitability, deducted from the corporate income tax (IRPJ) and social contribution (CSLL) tax base for the calendar years 2013 to 2016, in the amount of R$ 336,361. The defense was presented considering that the amortization of goodwill occurred under the terms of the applicable legislation (article 386 of RIR/99 and articles 7 and 8 of Law No. 9.532/97); and (h) difference of PIS and COFINS determined in view of the offset of CIDE. For inspectors, this deduction could only be made if it had been paid.

Offsets with IPI credit – Normative Instruction No. 67/98

SRF Regulatory Instruction No. 67/98 brought with it the possibility of a refund of IPI collected in the period from January 14, 1992, to November 16, 1997, on amorphous refined sugar. Accordingly, RESA, for the periods in which payment was made, it pleaded to offset amounts against other taxes due. However, the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service dismissed requests for restitution as well as an offset. Thus, RESA administratively appealed against the dismissal.

After notification of payment of debts object to an offset in view of the changes introduced by IN SRF Number 210/02, RESA filed a writ of mandamus with an injunction request to suspend the enforceability of offset taxes, with the aim of impeding the Public Administration from executing these debts. The injunction was granted by the competent court.

MP 470—Installment payment of debts

Federal Revenue Service partially rejected requests for payment of federal tax debts in installments made by RESA, with the argument that offered tax loss is not sufficient to settle respective debts. RESA and its legal advisors consider that the losses indicated existed and were available for such use.

Refers to the charging of ISS tax by the Municipality of Anchieta, state of Espírito Santo on services rendered in maritime waters (in block BC-10) because it believes that the services provided therein would have been within the territory of this municipality, and therefore the ISS should have been paid to the municipality of that state.

Commitments

Purchasing

RESA and its subsidiaries have various purchase commitments for sugarcane with third parties in order to guarantee part of its production in subsequent harvests. The amount of sugarcane to be acquired is calculated based on the estimated amount per milled area. The amount to be paid by the Group is determined at the end of each harvest, according to prices published by the Conselho dos Produtores de Cana de Açúcar, Açúcar e Etanol do Estado de São Paulo—CONSECANA.

RCSA has fuel purchase agreements with third parties in order to secure part of its trading future, also has contracts for rail transportation, road, and ferry services, with the purpose of transporting fuel from the supply bases to the reseller stations, whose amount to be paid is determined according to the price agreed in the contract.

The Group has stockpiling service contracts for fuels with third parties, in accordance with logistics and storage objectives of fuels in certain regions.

RESA has exclusive contracts with Rumo Group, related to transportation services and sugar export services.

The commitments of purchase of electric energy are mainly due to the operating activities of WX Energy which is a power trading company.

Equity

In the context of the combined consolidated financial statements, the captions comprising the equity (capital, capital and profit reserves, equity valuation adjustments, among other) usually are not relevant. Therefore, the statements of changes in equity of these combined consolidated financial statements include only two items named equity attributed to controlling shareholders and non-controlling shareholders’ interest.

The information disclosed in this note derives from the individual and consolidated financial statements of RESA and RCSA. Accordingly, as presented in Note 1.d, these combined consolidated financial statements of the Group do not represent the individual and consolidated annual financial statements of an entity and its subsidiaries.

Redeemable preferred shares

Tax benefits resulting from NOL and GW recognized before the Raízen formation (Note 9.a.5), should be refund to the respective shareholders as RESA use them as a decrease in balances of the taxes payable.

For the realization of these refunds, Class B preferred shares to Cosan and C (fully redeemed in the year ended March 31, 2018) and D classes to Shell with the purpose of compensating them through the payment of dividends in the amount of the tax benefit used by RESA.

In March 2019, RESA proposed the allocation of R$ 5,667 of dividends to the holders of Class B preferred shares (Note 11.a.3).

As of March 31, 2019, the balance of preferred shares (Class B) recognized in equity under Capital caption, totaling R$ 5,161 belongs to Cosan (R$ 10,828 in 2018).

(1) In June 2014, Cosan S.A. contributed with all common shares issued by RCSA to CIP.

Special Shareholders’ Meeting (“AGE”) held on July 26, 2017, the RCSA’s shareholders approved the capital increase in the amount of R$ 78,123 through issuance of 49,935,458 new class C preferred shares, fully subscribed by Shell with RCSA’s tax credits on a date prior to the formation of Raízen. Such operation did not generate an impact on equity, since said amount was considered a debt instrument.

At Annual and Special Shareholders’ Meeting held on July 31, 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved remuneration to Shell through preferred dividends and redemption of class C and E preferred shares in the amounts of R$ 28,533, R$ 86,618 and R$ 15,872, respectively. As a result of these redemptions, 58,372,470 class C preferred shares and 10,708,835 class E preferred shares were canceled, and the balance of the capital reserve account was partially used.

 

(b)

Capital reserves

Capital reserve

Corresponds mainly to the goodwill reserve arising from the portion of the issue price of shares without par value that exceeded the amount allocated to the formation of the capital. That reserve may only be used to increase capital, absorb losses exceeding retained earnings and income reserves, redeem, reimburse or purchase shares or to pay cumulative dividends to preferred shares.

Goodwill special reserve

Derives from downstream mergers in the RESA whose goodwill became deductible for income and social contribution tax purposes. Therefore, RESA recognized goodwill special reserve in equity as an effect of downstream mergers and as an offsetting entry to deferred tax assets that is equivalent to the 34% tax benefit resulting from the amortization of this goodwill.

 

(c)

Dividends and interest on shareholders` equity

Group’s dividends are not distributed by the calculations of the combined consolidated financial statements, but individually by RESA and RCSA.

Bylaws of RESA and RCSA assure shareholders a minimum mandatory dividend of 1% of net income at the end of fiscal year, adjusted pursuant to Corporation Law.

Accordingly, there is no provision for minimum mandatory and ordinary dividends because prepaid values were higher than those calculated at percentage defined in the Bylaws.

Financial instruments

 

(a)

Overview

The Group presents exposure to the following main risks deriving from its operations, which are equalized and managed with the use of certain financial instruments:

 

  •  

Price risk

 

  •  

Foreign exchange rate risk

 

  •  

Interest rate risk

 

  •  

Credit risk

 

  •  

Liquidity risk

 

(b)

Risk management framework

The Group has specific treasury and trading policies that set risk management guidelines.

The Group has two main committees to monitor activities and ensure policy compliance: (i) A risk committee whose members gather weekly to analyze the behavior of commodity (sugar and oil by-products) and foreign exchange markets and decide on coverage positions and the strategy to fix the prices of imports and exports to reduce the negative effects of changes in commodities’ prices and foreign exchange rate; and, (ii) an ethanol and by-product committee whose members gather monthly to assess the risks posed by the sale of ethanol and to comply with the limits set on risk policies.

The Group is exposed to market risks, and main ones are: (i) fluctuations in sugar, electric power, ethanol and oil by-product prices; (ii) fluctuations in exchange rates; and, (iii) fluctuations in interest rates. The purchases of financial instruments for hedging purposes are made according to an analysis of the risk exposure that Management intends to cover.

(c)

Price risk

Results from the possibility of fluctuations in the market prices of the products sold by the Group, mainly VHP sugar (sugar #11), refined sugar (sugar #5 or white sugar), diesel (heating oil), gasoline, ethanol and electric power. These price fluctuations may cause substantial alterations in the sales revenues and costs. To mitigate these risks, the Group permanently monitors markets, seeking to anticipate price changes.

Foreign exchange rate risk

Foreign exchange rate risks arise from the possibility of fluctuations in the exchange rates used by Raízen Group for export revenues, imports, financing cash flows and other foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Group uses derivative transactions to manage cash flow risks resulting from export revenues denominated in US dollars, net of other cash flows also denominated in foreign currency. The table below shows the positions for derivatives used to cover foreign exchange rate risks:

Hedge accounting effect

The Group formally designates its transactions subject to hedge accounting aiming at hedging cash flows. Hedges are assigned to sugar and ethanol revenues, as applicable, the cost of import of derivatives and foreign currency debt, documenting: (i) the hedging relationship, (ii) the Group’s risk management purpose and strategy when entering into the hedging instrument, (iii) the identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the covered object or transaction, (v) the nature of the risk to be covered, (vi) the description of the hedging relationship and (vii) correlation between hedging and coverage object.

As of March 31, 2019, the impacts recognized in the Group’s shareholders equity and the estimated realization in profit or loss are shown below:

Fair value hedge

RCSA assigns to the fair value, the imported inventory of oil by-products with linked derivatives (forward sold) at fair value. The primary goal of risk management is to recognize inventory at a floating price, as it will be the case of RCSA’s sales revenue upon selling products to its customers. Hedge accounting aims to minimize any kind of mismatching in income (loss) for the period, causing both the derivatives and the inventory to be recorded at fair value, with the change being recognized under Cost of products sold and services rendered caption, whose negative impact in the year ended March 31, 2019 is R$ 37,764 (R$ 16,827 in 2018).

Credit risk

A substantial part of the Group’s sales is made to a select group if highly qualified counterparties, such as trading companies, fuel distribution companies and major supermarket chains.

The Group manages credit risk by following specific client acceptance standards, analyzing client credit standing and setting exposure limits per client, requiring, when applicable, letters of credit of top tier banks and taking security interest in assets as security for payment of the credit facilities granted to clients. Management considers that the credit risk is substantially covered by the estimated loss in allowance for doubtful accounts.

Individual risk limits are determined according to internal and external classifications and the limits set by Group’s Management. The use of credit limits is regularly monitored. No credit limit was exceeded during the year, and Management does not expect any loss from default by these counterparties in amounts higher than those already provided for.

The Group enters into commodity derivative agreements in futures markets and options at the New York Board of Trade—NYBOT and NYMEX, Chicago—CBOT, Chicago - CME and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange—LIFFE, as well as in over-the-counter markets with selected counterparties. The Group enters into foreign exchange rate and commodity derivative agreements at B3 and over-the-counter agreements, mainly with the leading local and foreign banks considered by global credit risk rating agencies to have investment level ratings.

Guarantee margins—Derivative transactions in commodity exchanges (NYBOT, NYMEX, LIFFE and B3) require guarantee margins. The total margin of combined consolidated deposited as of March 31, 2019 is R$ 217,869 (R$ 75,839 in 2018), of which R$ 64,830 (R$ 38,863 in 2018) in restricted financial investments and R$ 153,039 (R$ 36,976 in 2018) in derivative transaction margins.

The Group’s over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative transactions do not require a guarantee margin.

The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is mitigated by the conservative distribution of investment funds and CDBs, which make up the caption. The distribution follows strict criteria for allocation and exposure to counterparties that are major national and international banks, mainly considered investment grade by international rating agencies.

 

(h)

Liquidity risk

It is the risk of the Group may encounter difficulties in performing the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled with payments or with another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

As part of the liquidity management process, management prepares business plans and monitors their implementation, discussing positive and negative cash flow risks and assessing the availability of funds to support its operations, investments and refinancing needs.

Fair value

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities is the value by which the instrument may be exchanged in a current transaction between parties that are willing to negotiate, and not in a forced sale or settlement. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value are described below.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other financial assets, accounts payable, related parties and other short-term obligations are approximated to their accounting amount due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Fair value of other long-term assets and liabilities does not significantly differ from their book values.

The fair value of the liability financial instruments of the Group approximates the book value, since they are subject to variable interest rates and there was no significant change in Group’s credit risk. The fair value measurement of the tradable Senior Notes 2027, only for disclosure purposes, is based on market quotations on the date of financial statements. As of March 31, 2019, such market value is 102.41% (101.23% in 2018) of face value.

Derivatives are valued using valuation techniques with observable market data and refer, mainly, to swaps of interest rates, foreign exchange forward contracts, and forward commodity contracts. The valuation techniques applied often include pricing models and swaps contracts, with present value calculations. The models incorporate various data, including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot, and forward rates, interest rate curves, and forward rate curves of the hedge object.

Fair value hierarchy

The Group uses the following hierarchy to determine and disclose the fair values of financial instruments according to the valuation technique used:

 

•  

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

 

•  

Level 2: other techniques for which all data that have a significant effect on fair value are observable, whether directly or indirectly; and,

 

•  

Level 3: techniques that use data that have a significant effect on fair value that are not based on observable market data.

Sensitivity analysis

We present below the sensitivity analysis of the fair value of financial instruments according to the types of risk considered relevant by the Group.

Assumptions for the sensitivity analysis

The Group has adopted three scenarios for the sensitivity analysis, one probable and two (possible and remote) that may show the sundry effects in the fair value of the Group’s financial instruments. The probable scenario was set according to the futures market curves of sugar, heating oil, ethanol and the US dollar as of March 31, 2019, and the amounts presented correspond to the fair value of derivatives on those dates. Possible and remote adverse scenarios were set considering impacts of 25% and 50% on sugar and US dollar price curves, which were calculated as a basis for the probable scenario.

The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of the significant assets acquired were as follows:

 

Acquired assets

  

Valuation technique

Property, plant and equipment    Market comparison and cost technique: the evaluation model considers the market prices quoted for similar items, when available, and depreciated replacement costs, when applicable. The depreciated replacement cost reflects adjustments of physical deterioration, as well as the functional and economic obsolescence. In addition, the balance of fixed assets is comprised of the balance of sugarcane planting, which was adjusted at fair value considering the assumptions and calculations of RESA. The fair value of sugarcane planting was calculated under the Income Approach method, based on the concept that the fair value of sugarcane planting is related to the present value of net cash flows generated by the asset in the future. The fair value of fixed asset items on the acquisition date amounted to approximately R$ 451,147, which represented an adjustment of around R$ 71,025.

Other assets acquired and liabilities assumed were analyzed and the respective accounting balances reflect the respective fair values.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, RESA concluded the allocation of the price of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the RESA in the process of acquiring the Santa Candida and Paraíso plants.
