The Company discloses and classifies in a specific group its forfaiting operations with suppliers where the nature of the securities continue to be part of the Company's operating cycle. These transactions are negotiated with financial institutions to enable the Company's suppliers to anticipate receivables arising from sales of goods and, consequently, to extend the payment terms of the Company's own obligations. The term of these operations ranges from 180 days to 360 days.

Accounting Policy

 

Trade payables

 

They are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method, and brought to present value when applicable on the date of the transactions, based on the Company's estimated cost of capital rate.

 

Forfaiting

 

The Company classifies financial liabilities arising from financing agreements with suppliers under a specific line item in the balance sheet. This is the case when the financing agreement with suppliers is part of the working capital used in the Company's normal operating cycle and the terms of the liabilities that are part of the supply chain financing agreement are not substantially different from the terms of trade accounts payable that are not part of the agreement.

 

Cash flows related to liabilities arising from financing agreements with suppliers are presented in operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The financial costs of the operation, when applicable, are shown in note 28.
