30.1    Capital

Capital consists of common and preferred shares. Each common share entitles its holder to one vote in the general shareholders’ meetings. Preferred shares do not have voting rights and have two classes “A” and “B”.

According to Article 17 and following paragraphs of Federal Law No. 6,404/76, dividends paid to preferred shares must be at least 10% higher than those paid to common shares.

Class “A” preferred shares have priority in the reimbursement of capital and in the distribution of minimum dividends of 10% p.a. (non-cumulative), calculated based on the capital represented by this class of shares.

Class “B” preferred shares have priority in the reimbursement of capital and the right to the distribution of dividends, calculated as 25% of adjusted profit or loss for the year, pursuant to the corporate legislation and to the Company’s by-laws, calculated proportionately to the capital represented by the shares of this class. Dividends for Class “B” have priority only over the common shares and are only paid out of the remaining profits payment of priority dividends of class “A” shares.

On December 31, 2019, paid-in capital is R$ 10,800,000 (R$ 7,910,000 as at December 31, 2018). The capital increase of R$ 2,890,000 was approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on April 29, 2019.

30.2    Equity valuation adjustments

Fair values of fixed assets – deemed costs – were recognized on the first-time adoption of IFRS. The line item “Equity value adjustments” was the balancing item of this adjustment, net of deferred income tax and social contribution. The realization of such adjustments is recorded in the retained earnings line item, to the extent of the depreciation or possible disposal of the measured fixed assets.

Adjustments arising from the changes in fair value involving financial assets, as well as actuarial gains and losses, are also recorded in this line item.

 30.3    Legal reserve and profit retention reserve

The amount of 5% of profit for the year is allocated to the legal reserve, before any other allocation, limited to 20% of capital.

The profit retention reserve is earmarked for covering the Company's investment program, according to Article 196 of Law No. 6,404/1976. It is funded by retaining the remaining profit or loss after setting up the legal reserve, interest on capital and dividends proposed.

In accordance with the legal and statutory provisions in effect, the basis for calculating mandatory dividends is obtained from net income, less the quota allocated to the legal reserve. However, Management decided to add to the calculation basis the realization of the equity valuation adjustments, which is dealt with in IAS 16, 40 and IFRS 1, in order to void the effect of the increase in depreciation expense arising from the adoption accounting standards, as well as IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment. This procedure reflects the Company's shareholder remuneration policy, which will be practiced during the realization of the entire reserve for equity valuation adjustments.

The distribution of the minimum mandatory dividend is included in Dividend payable in the Company’s financial statements at year-end.

 

The tax benefit of interest on capital is recorded in the statement of income upon its recognition in accounts payable.
