  1.1

Major events in the six-month period ended June 30, 2018

 

  a)

Operational events

 

  i)

Debentures

On June 29, 2018, the Company issued R$ 4,681,100 in 6th issue, single series, non-convertible debentures maturing in June 2026 with interest rate of 112.50% of Interbank Deposit Certificates (“CDI”).

The net proceeds will be fully used to partially pay the cash portion of the acquisition of the common shares of Fibria’s (Note 1.1 b) i)). For this debenture issue, denominated in Brazilian Real, the Company has already contracted a cross currency interest rate swap to fix the interest cost in US$ dollars plus 5.74%.

 

  ii)

Trucker´s strike

In May 2018, a general strike of truck drivers across Brazil interrupted the transportation of goods and products across the country for a few days, resulting in shortages of fuel and other products, causing a temporary suspension of production in most industries. Despite efforts to minimize the adverse impact of the strike, the Company’s production operations were suspended for a few days, resulting in a loss of production volume of approximately 80,000 tons of pulp and approximately 25,000 tons of paper. As of June 1st, 2018, operations at Suzano’s plants were gradually resumed.

  iii)

Acquisition of land and forests in the state of São Paulo

On February 5, 2018, Suzano entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Forestry Assets, Purchase of Rural Properties, Purchase Option and Other Covenants, with Conditions Precedent, with Duratex S.A. (“Duratex”), through itself and its affiliates, under which:

(i) it acquired around nine thousand and five hundred (9,500) hectares of rural land and one million and two hundred thousand cubic meters (1,200,000 m³) of forests, which reflects the potential of production of existing and already implemented forests in the areas acquired, in the central region of the state of São Paulo, for R$ 308.1 million; and (ii) it acquired an option to purchase approximately twenty thousand (20,000) hectares of rural properties in the same region and five million and six hundred thousand (5,600,000) cubic meters of forests, which reflects the potential of production of existing and already implemented forests in the properties subject-matter of the portion, for the price of R$ 749.4 million, which was exercised by Suzano on July 2, 2018, as mentioned in Note 32 (i).

The financial settlement of the transaction occurred as follows:

1st tranche – R$ 308,100: (i) R$ 157,800 on the closing date of the agreement (February 5, 2018); and (ii) R$ 150,300 to be paid on December 20, 2018 updated by the Extended Consumer Price Index (“IPCA”).

2nd tranche – R$ 749,400: (i) R$ 347,700 on the closing date of the agreement; and (ii) R$ 347,700 to be paid on July 2, 2019 updated by the IPCA.

Brazil’s antitrust authority CADE approved the operation on April 4, 2018.

 

  iv)

Export prepayment facility

On February 8, 2018, the Company contracted, through its wholly owned subsidiary Suzano Pulp and Paper Europe S.A. (“Suzano Europe”), an export prepayment facility, structured in a syndicated form, amounting to US$ 750 million, with final maturity of 5 years and grace period of 3 years, which has Suzano and Suzano Trading Ltd. (“Suzano Trading”), another subsidiary of Suzano, as guarantors.

The proceeds will be used to settle the export prepayment transaction contracted on May 14, 2015, in the amount of US$ 600 million and to finance export operations.

The new operation reduces borrowing cost in U.S. dollar, extending the average debt term and eliminates financial covenants.

 

  b)

Corporate events

i) Voting Commitment and assumption of obligations

On March 15, 2018, Suzano Holding S.A., jointly with other controlling shareholders of the Company (collectively, the “Controlling Shareholders of the Company”), entered into with the controlling shareholders of Fibria Celulose S.A. (“Fibria” and, jointly with Suzano, the “Companies”), Votorantim S.A. and BNDES Participações S.A. – BNDESPAR (“BNDESPAR”) (collectively the “Controlling Shareholders of Fibria”), with

Suzano as intervening consenting party, a Commitment to Vote and Assumption of Obligations, whereby the Controlling Shareholders of the Company and the Controlling Shareholders of Fibria agreed to exercise their voting rights to combine the operations and shareholding base of the Company and of Fibria, through corporate restructuring.

A corporate restructuring will be submitted to the shareholders of the Companies, which will result in the following: (a) the ownership, by Suzano, of all the shares issued by Fibria; and (b) in the receipt by the shareholders of Fibria, for each common share issued by Fibria, of (i) fifty-two reais and fifty centavos (R$ 52.50), restated at the variation of the CDI rate from March 15, 2018 to the effective payment date, to be paid in a single installment on the date of consummation of the operation; and (ii) 0.4611 common shares of Suzano, to be delivered on the date of consummation of the operation.

Shareholders of Fibria holding American Depositary Receipts (“ADR”) will be entitled to receive Suzano ADRs, observing the same exchange ratio. To do so, Suzano will adopt measures to (i) register the operation (or its exemption, as applicable) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and (ii) list the ADRs of Suzano in the same listing segment with the New York Stock Exchange where Fibria’s ADRs are currently listed.

Once the operation is consummated, the shares and ADRs issued by Fibria will no longer be traded on B3 S.A. and the New York Stock Exchange, respectively.

In accordance with the Voting Commitment, if any restrictions imposed by antitrust authorities in Brazil and/or other countries are too burdensome, Suzano may choose not to consummate the operation, upon payment to Fibria of a break-up fee equivalent to R$ 750 million. The break-up fee may entail certain other conditions of non-consummation of the operation, as expressly envisaged in the Voting Commitment.

In the context of the transaction and subject to the closing of the transaction, on March 15, 2018, the Controlling Shareholders of the Company entered into a Voting Agreement and other covenants with BNDES (“BNDESPAR Voting Agreement”), establishing certain governance commitments, financial and environmental policies of the Company, and limiting the transfer of the shares in the Company held by the Controlling Shareholders of the Company.

Suzano secured firm commitments from certain international financial institutions to contract financing facilities, in the total amount of US$ 9.2 billion, whose disbursement is conditioned, among other things, on the consummation of the operation. Proceeds from said financing will be used to finance a part of the installment in cash and combined exports of the companies. In order to obtain the credit facilities, the Company paid the bank a fee of US$ 51.750 (corresponding to R$ 172.006), this amount will be amortized up to the date of completion of the operation and the corresponding balance is classified under the heading of other accounts receivable.

On June 1, 2018, the Company received notice of the Federal Trade Commission, a competitive authority in the United States, granting early conclusion of the transaction analysis between Suzano and Fibria, which represents the authorization of the unrestricted operation in the United States of America.

Consummation of the operation is subject to typical conditions for operations of this nature, including approval by antitrust authorities in Brazil, China, European Union and other countries that come forward to examine the transaction.

 

  ii)

Acquisition of company in Tissue segment (Facepa)

On January 19, 2018, Brazil’s antitrust agency CADE approved without restrictions the acquisition of around 92.84% of the total capital of the mill of Facepa – Fábrica de Papel da Amazônia (“Facepa”) by Suzano.

On March 1, 2018, once all the conditions precedent were implemented and all the approvals obtained from competent government authorities, the direct and indirect acquisition of approximately 92.84% of the total capital and 99.99% of the common capital of Facepa was concluded. Suzano acquired 100% of the control of AGFA—Comércio, Administração e Participações Ltda. (“AGFA”), which holds 28.8% of Facepa, and directly acquired 64.0% from the controlling shareholders of Facepa, thus totaling 92.84%. AGFA is a company with no commercial operation and whose balance sheet basically includes the investment in Facepa. The Facepa’s equity in February, 2018 was R$ 122.6 million, of which 113.8 million represents Suzano’s interest and R$ 8.8 million refers to the non-controlling interest.

With the acquisition, in addition to Facepa’s units in Belém (PA) and Fortaleza (CE), the Company already operates its own sanitary paper units in Mucuri (BA) and Imperatriz (MA).

The amount paid for the acquisition was R$ 267,876, made on the date of the acquisition and a contingent amount of R$ 40,000, which is conditioned on the non-materialization of indemnifiable losses by the sellers, totaling R$ 307,876.

The Company did not finalize the identification and measurement of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in this business combination and recognized the consideration transferred preliminarily as intangible assets.

 

  iii)

Acquisition of company in the energy segment (PCH Mucuri)

On February 19, 2018, after the fulfillment of all the conditions precedent and after approval was obtained from competent government authorities, the operation with Queiroz Galvão Energia S.A. for the acquisition of all the shares issued by Mucuri Energética S.A. (“PCH Mucuri”) was concluded. PCH Mucuri owns a small hydroelectric plant located in the cities of Carlos Chagas and Pavão in the State of Minas Gerais.

The amount paid for the acquisition was R$ 48,027 on the date of conclusion of the acquisition. The assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition, determined on a preliminary basis and the Company recorded R$ 102,054 in non-current other liabilities related to fair value of liabilities.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared and is presented in accordance with international standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”).

The interim information was prepared using the historical cost as the basis of value, except for certain financial assets and liabilities and biological assets that are measured at fair value.

The Company affirms that all the information relevant to its interim information is reported and that it corresponds to that used by the Management for its administration.

 

  2.1.1

Condensed consolidated

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared based on the information provided by Suzano and its subsidiaries on the reporting date, as well as in accordance with consistent accounting practices and policies, except for Facepa, whose reporting date is May 31, 2018, but whose information does not have significant impact on consolidated result.

The subsidiaries are consolidated as from the date of ownership control up to the date control ceases to exist. In the case of joint control (joint venture) with other companies, these investments are measured by the equity method for the consolidated interim information.

In the consolidation process, the balances in the balance sheet and income statement accounts corresponding to the transactions carried out with subsidiaries are eliminated, as well as the unrealized gains and losses and the investments in these subsidiaries and their respective equity accounting results.

 

  2.2

Revised of comparative figures

The financial statements as of December 31, 2017, presented for comparison purposes, were revised to reflect the reclassifications of advances for the acquisition of wood, in the amount of R$ 12,870, from Other Accounts Receivable to Advances to Suppliers. The adjustment was a reclassification between items of Current Assets, did not change the total of this group, and also do not change the total of the Assets. The Company concluded the revision is not relevant to the financial statements.

Accounting polices

The interim financial information was prepared using accounting practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial statements at December 31, 2017, except for the application of the new accounting standards as of January 1st, 2018, although, despite the application, there was no material impact on the interim information, as mentioned in the financial statements as of December 31, 2017. This interim financial information should be considered jointly with the annual financial statements.

  3.1

Accounting policies adopted

 

  3.1.1

Financial instruments – IFRS 9

IFRS 9 replaces the provisions of IAS 39 that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting. The Company opted for the modified transition method that comparative figures have not been restated.

The adoption of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments from January 1st, 2018 resulted in changes in accounting policies however considering the assessment made by Company there was no material impact or adjustments in January 1st, 2018 due to the new standard.

 

  (i)

Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: (a) amortized cost and (b) at fair value through profit or loss. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired as explained below:

 

  (a)

Amortized cost

Are financial assets held by the Company (i) in order to receive their contractual cash flow and not to sell to realization a profit or loss and (ii) whose contractual terms give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that exclusively, payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

It includes the balance of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. Any changes are recognized in income statement under “Financial income” or “Financial expenses”, depending on the outcome.

 

  (b)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

That are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.

Are the balance of financial investments and derivative financial instruments. Any changes are recognized in the income statement under “Financial income” or “Financial expenses”, depending on its outcome.

 

  (ii)

Impairment of financial assets

The Company revised its impairment methodology under IFRS 9. On January 1st, 2018, the Company started to apply IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade accounts receivable. The total impact of the change in impairment methodology on January 1st, 2018 was not material.

 

  3.1.2

Revenue recognition – IFRS 15

 

12


Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A.

Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information

as of June 30, 2018

(In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

   LOGO

 

The Company has adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on January 1st, 2018 which resulted in changes in accounting policies, opting the modified transition method that comparative figures have not been restated.

The Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers as at which the products to customers transfer of control, represented by the ability to determine the use of products and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the products.

The Company follows the conceptual framework of the standard, based on the five-step model: (i) identification of contracts with customers; (ii) identification of performance obligations under contracts; (iii) determining the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation provided for in the contracts and (v) recognition of revenue when the performance obligation is met.

The transaction confirmation is based on the parameters provided by the corresponding Incoterms (International Commercial Terms) and credit confirmation to the completion of the transaction. Revenue is the net sales revenue, net of taxes, discounts and returns. The revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a costumer (which is when the costumer obtains control of that good or service).

(a) Sale of products

The recognition of revenue for domestic and export pulp and paper sales is based on the following principles:

(i) Domestic market—sales are mainly made on credit. Revenue is recognized when the customer receives the product, whether on the carrier’s premises or at its own premises, at which rewards of ownership are transferred and the performance obligation is satisfied.

(ii) Export market—export orders are normally supplied from third party warehouses located near strategic markets; sales are mainly made on credit. Revenue is recognized as per the Incoterm parameters.

 

  3.2

New standards, revisions and interpretations not yet in force

IASB issued and approved the following accounting standards/interpretations that are not yet effective and the Company did not early adopt them for the preparation of this interim information.

The Management evaluated or is evaluating and measuring the impacts of adopting the following standards/interpretations:

i) IFRS 16 – Leases – It replaces IAS 17 and essentially requires that lessees recognize future payments in their liabilities and the right to use a leased item in assets for practically all lease agreements. Therefore, financial lease and operating lease agreements receive similar accounting treatment, although certain short-term leases or those for small amounts are outside the scope of this standard. This standard will be effective as of January 1st, 2019.

 

13


Suzano Papel e Celulose S.A.

Notes to the Unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information

as of June 30, 2018

(In thousands of R$, unless otherwise stated)

   LOGO

 

The Company, based on preliminary assessments, believes that the biggest impact produced by this standard is related to the recognition in the balance sheet of the lease agreements of land used to plant eucalyptus forests, with terms of up to 3 cycles of forest formation, around 21 years (Note 20.2), but for the reporting date, the Company was still analyzing these and other lease agreements, as well as the transition criterion to be adopted to implement the new Standard.

ii) IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments – Clarifies the accounting of tax positions that have not yet been accepted by tax authorities. Both IAS 12/CPC 32 Income Taxes and the new interpretation IFRIC 23 apply only to Income Tax and Social Contribution. IFRIC 23 does not introduce new disclosures, but reinforces the need to comply with certain reporting requirements on (i) judgments made; (ii) assumptions or other estimates used; and (iii) potential impact of uncertainties that are not reflected in the financial statements. This standard will be effective as of January 1st, 2019.

The Company is assessing the changes introduced by this new interpretation and, based on preliminary analyses made until the closing of this interim information, estimates that there will be no significant impact on its interim information.

Sensitivity analysis – foreign exchange exposure

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to jointly evaluate the long and short positions in foreign currency, and the possible effects on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the translation into Brazilian reais on the base date of the balance sheet.

The other scenarios were created considering the depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar at the rates of 25% and 50%.

This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant, the following table presents the potential impacts on results assuming these scenarios:

Interest rate risk

Fluctuations in interest rates could result in increase or decrease in costs of new financing and operations already contracted.

The Company constantly seeks alternatives to use financial instruments in order to avoid negative impacts on its cash flows.

Sensitivity analysis – exposure to interest rates

For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity that variations in operations impacted by the rates: Interbank Deposit Rates (“CDI”), Long Term Interest Rate (“TJLP”) and London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) may have on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the best estimate of the Management.

This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency exchange rates, remain constant. The other scenarios were developed considering appreciation of 25% and 50% in the market interest rates. The following table shows the potential impacts on the results in the event of these scenarios:

Fair value does not represent an obligation for immediate disbursement or cash receipt, given that such effect will only occur on the dates of contractual fulfillment or on the maturity of each transaction, when the result will be determined, depending on the case and market conditions on agreed dates.

Contracts outstanding on June 30, 2018 are over-the-counter operations without any margin or early settlement clause imposed due to mark-to-market variations.

As mentioned in Note 1.1 b) i) related to the corporate reorganization transaction with Fibria, the Company obtained firm commitments from certain international financial institutions to contract financing, totaling US$ 9.2 billion, whose disbursement is conditional, among others, other conditions, to the consummation of the transaction. The proceeds of such financing will be used to settle part of the cash portion of this transaction determined in Reais-R $. In order to mitigate the currency risk between the origin of dollar resources and the commitment in Reais, the Company increased the use of the currency hedge derivatives in the period.

As the business under acquisition is usually precified in US$ and the guaranteed credit line obtained is also in US$, management strategy was to hedge the final consideration to be paid in US$, entering into derivative contracts. The results with these derivatives are as follows: (i) Zero-cost collar (R$ vs US$) in the amount of US$ 1.3 billion (notional in US$) representing R$ 288,088 at fair value; (ii) NDF (R$ vs US$) in the amount of US$ 3.5 billion (notional in US$) representing R$ 1,144,479 at fair value; and (iii) Swap CDI vs Fixed (US$) in the amount of US$ 1.25 billion (notional in US $) representing R$ 142,115 at fair value, totaling an accumulated financial loss with derivatives of R$ 1,574,682 for the period.

The gain reported in 2017 is mainly due to the gross wood price in the regions of Maranhão and Pará and the maintenance of other assumptions.

The Company’s biological assets are mainly made of eucalyptus forest for reforestation used to supply wood to pulp and paper mills and are located in the states of São Paulo, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Maranhão, Minas Gerais, Pará, Piauí and Tocantins. Permanent preservation and legal reserve areas were not included in the calculation of fair value due to its nature.

The fair value of eucalyptus forests is determined semiannually through the income approach method by using the Discounted Cash Flow method.

22.2 Tax and Social Security Suits and Proceedings

On June 30, 2018, the Company was a defendant in 384 administrative proceedings as well as tax and social security lawsuits in which the disputed matters related to diverse taxes such as IRPJ/Social Contribution (“CSLL”), PIS, COFINS, Tax on Industrialized Products (“IPI”), social security contributions, Rural Property Tax (“ITR”), State Value-Added Tax (“ICMS”), Tax on Services (“ISS”) and Urban Property Tax (“IPTU”), whose amounts are provisioned for when the likelihood of loss is deemed probable by the Company’s external legal counsel and the Management.

With respect to the debts included in the “installment with tax loss carryforward” modality of the REFIS Installment Program established by Law 11,941/2009, after the effective consolidation by the Federal Revenue of Brazil of the amount of tax loss indicated for the settlement of the amounts of interest and penalties for delinquency and ex officio of the debits included, the Company made the full payment of the installments referring to the principal amounts and fines isolated from said debts, thereby extinguishing the said installment in full.

With the issuance of Provisional Measure Nº 783/2017, which was subsequently converted into Law 13,496/2017, due to the benefits of reducing interest, fines and legal charges, the Company opted to migrate certain debts that were covered by REFIS—Law Nº 11,941/09, not yet consolidated, and to offset other debts with probable probability of loss, being provisioned on June 30, 2018 the amounts of said debts in the amount of R$ 4,356, already considering legal reductions and amounts paid in advance to the Revenue Federal Government of Brazil, whose consolidation still depends on a normative act to be issued by the said Public Organ.

Earnings (losses) per share

Basic

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders by the weighted average common shares issued during the year, excluding the common shares acquired by the Company and held as treasury shares.

As described in item b) of Note 26.2, in November 2017, the Company migrated to the Novo Mercado segment. Thus, all preferred shares were converted into common shares at the ratio of one preferred share for one common share; Considering that there was no change in capital stock, with mere conversion of preferred shares, for the purposes of calculation and presentation of earnings per share, this conversion was made retrospectively.
