a.

Financial status and general assets

The Company presented ownership and financial favorable conditions, presenting operational profit
generation, operational cash generation and reasonable leverage level. The management of the
Company believes that current cash level together with cash generation capacity, even in a negative
scenario, are sufficient for the Company to honor its financial obligations.
Mills presented in 2014 R$ 794.2 million of net revenues and free cash flow of R$ 116.1 million. This
is the first time Mills achieved positive cash generation, after years of high investments, which
enabled its organic growth, geographic expansion, and manly, the consolidation of its leadership in its

Net earnings amounted to R$ 64.3 million in 2014, versus R$ 167.7 million of net earnings from
continuing operations in 2013. In 2013 there was a net positive effect of R$ 8.2 million due to the
sale of the Industrial Services business unit. Excluding extraordinary items for both periods, net
earnings in 2014 would total R$ 81.7 million, against net earnings from continuing operations of R$
159.5 million in 2013. In 2012, net earnings totaled 151.1 million.
Mills total debt was R$ 745.4 million as of December 31, 2014 versus R$ 632.6 million at the end of
2013 and R$ 622.5 million at the end of 2012. At the end of the year our net debt position was R$
551.7 million, versus R$ 606.5 million at the end of 2013 and R$ 400.7 million at the end of 2012.
The debt amortization schedule includes payment of R$ 206 million as principal and interest in 2015,
of which a payment of R$ 44 million was already made in January, without rolling over, reducing our
gross debt.
Our leverage, as measured by net debt/LTM EBITDA, was at 1.6 times as of December 31, 2014. The
total debt/enterprise value was 42%, while interest coverage, as measured by LTM EBITDA/LTM
interest payments, was 4.8 times. At the end of 2013, our leverage, was at 1.5 times, while interest
coverage (LTM EBITDA/LTM) was 8.3 times. In 2012, net debt/LTM EBITDA ratio was at 1.2%. The
total debt/enterprise value was 13.2%, while interest coverage was 7.6 times.

b.

Capital structure and stock redemption possibility

According to the Company's balance sheet on December 31, 2014, the capital structure of Mills was
56.0% equity, measured by the stockholders equity, and 44.0% capital from third party, measured

total value of R$ 11 million.
The management of the Company typically use both equity, from operating cash generation, and
capital from third-party, though the contraction of new loans and/or the issuance of debt securities,
to finance the needs for investments in non-current assets and working capital of the company. For
strategic operations, when necessary, the company may resort to the capital from their shareholders
or third parties, through the issuance of shares.

c.

Payment capability in relation to the financial commitments assumed

The Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2014, was R$ 335.7 million and its
financial expenses, net of financial revenue in the same period were R$ 67.6 million. Thus, the
Companys EBITDA for year ended December 31st 2014 presented a coverage ratio of 5.0 times its
net financial expenses during the same period. Only considering its financial expenses, which
amounted to R$ 67.6 million as of December 31st, 2014, the coverage ratio would be 3.6 times.
The Companys total indebtedness for the year ended December 31st 2014, amounted to R$ 745.4
million, or 2.2 times the Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2014. The flow of
payment from this debt, considering the debt profile as of that date, will take place in a period of
seven years, of which R$ 153.8 million in less than one year, R$ 172.8 million from 1 to 3 years, R$
373.2 million in a period between 3 to 5 years and R$ 44.5 million in more than five years. The
Companys long-term debt profile has a policy for contracting loans and financing aimed at ensuring
that all financial commitments are honored, if necessary, through its cash generation.
In addition, on December 31st 2014, the Company had registered on its balance sheet the amount of
R$ 10.1 million, which refers to the Tax Recovery Program (REFIS) with a maturity of 180 months.

11

The Company is compliant to the remainder installments amounting R$ 10.1 million, of which the last
installment matures in December, 2024.
This way, the Company's management believes that its cash generation is sufficient to meet its
financial commitments. In 2014, cash generated was above investment needs for the first time since
its IPO, with a net balance of R$ 116.1 million.
The Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2013, was R$ 403.1 million and its
financial expenses, net of financial revenue in the same period were R$ 46.8 million. Thus, the
Companys EBITDA for year ended December 31st 2013 presented a coverage ratio of 8.6 times its
net financial expenses during the same period. Only considering its financial expenses, which
amounted to R$ 60.0 million in the year ended December 31st 2013, the coverage ratio would be 6.7
times.
The Companys total indebtedness for the year ended December 31st 2013, amounted to R$ 632.6
million, or, 1.6 times the Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2013. In addition, on
December 31st 2013, the Company had registered on its balance sheet liabilities in the amount of R$
10.4 million, which refers to the Tax Recovery Program (REFIS).
The Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2012, was R$ 358.4 million and its
financial expenses, net of financial revenue in the same period were R$ 39.2 million. Thus, the
Companys EBITDA for year ended December 31st 2012 presented a coverage ratio of 9.1 times its
net financial expenses during the same period. Only considering its financial expenses, which
amounted to R$ 51.2 million in the year ended December 31st 2012, the coverage ratio would be 7.0
times.
The Companys total indebtedness for the year ended December 31st 2012, amounted to R$ 622.5
million, or, 1.7 times the Companys EBITDA for the year ended December 31st 2012. In addition, on
December 31st 2012, the Company had registered on its balance sheet liabilities related to the Tax
Recovery Program (REFIS), which amounted to R$ 10.7 million.
With regard to contractual limitations for assumption of new debt, there are clauses in the Company's
bank credit contracts that require adherence to certain financial indicators, among which: the ratio
between EBITDA and net debt, the ratio of net short-term debt and total net debt, and the ratio
between net financial expenses and EBITDA.
On December 31st of 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Company was within the limits of contractual financial
indicators.

d.

Source of financing for working capital and investments in non-current assets.

The investments from the Company in non-current assets and working capital are financed by its own
cash generation and third party capital, through the contraction of new loans and/or the issuance of
debt securities. For strategic operations, when necessary, the Company can turn to capital from its
shareholders or third parties, through the issuance of shares.
On April 23rd, 2012 the Company issued a single series of thirty commercial promissory notes with
unit face value of R$ 1.0 million, for a total amount of R$ 30.0 million with maturity on December 3rd,
2012. Remuneration interest charges will fall due corresponding to 100% of the accumulated

12

variation in the average daily Domestic Demand (DI) rates, plus 4.9% per annum. Remuneration will

which: i) 16,094 debentures of the first series, amounting to R$ 160.9 million, with maturity date on
August 15, 2017, not subject to monetary adjustment. The nominal value of the first series

on the sixth year of the issuance, and the interest paid annually and equal to 5.50% per annum of
the above mentioned monetarily adjusted amount.
On December 6, 2013 the Company entered into a loan agreement with the Nassau Branch of Banco
Ita BBA S.A. totaling US$ 16.9 million (equivalent to R$40.0 million). The settlement of the loan will
be made in a single installment, paid on January 30, 2015, without rolling over. Payment of interest
will occurred twice a year. In order to eliminate the foreign exchange risk on this borrowing, on the
same date a swap was contracted with Banco Ita BBA S.A. in the amount of R$ 40 million so that
the obligations (principal and interest) are fully converted into local currency and carried out on the
same maturity dates.
On April 11th, 2014 the Company issued commercial promissory notes with a total amount of R$
200.0 million. Remuneration interest charges will fall due corresponding to 106% of the accumulated

of 100% of DI accrued variation. The liquid resources obtained by the Company through the third
debenture issuance were fully used to settlement of Companys 4th edition promissory notes, issued
on 11th April, 2014.

Potential sources of financing used for working capital and for investments
in non-current assets.

e.

The Companys main sources of liquidity are:

cash flow from our operations;


financing agreements and through capital market; and
increases in its capital stock.

The Companys main liquidity requirements are:

13

investments for maintenance and increase of the equipment inventory;


working capital needs;
investments in the Companys facilities and the technology center, which are necessary to
support its operations;
investments in the improvement of processes and controls;
investments in training and occupational safety; and
distribution of dividends and payment of interest on equity.

The management of the Company believes that the existing resources and the cash flow to be
generated from its operations, along with its borrowing capacity, with proper leverage, will be
sufficient to cover its investment plan and the need for working capital during the same period.

the existing finance lease agreements during the third quarter of 2014.

(ii) other long-term relationships with financial institutions

16

The Company adopts the policy of reducing the cash risk relating to foreign exchange variation on a
conservative basis since all its revenues are earned in Brazilian reais. Therefore, the Company enters
into NDF contracts with financial institutions for hedging purposes. All these contracts set the future
exchange rate from reais to dollars.
These derivative instruments contracted by the Company have the intention to protect it, on their
equipment import operations, in the interval between the placing of orders and nationalization against
the risk of fluctuation in the exchange rate, and are not used for speculative means.
The Company has also borrowing agreements in dollars and in order to cover substantially the foreign
exchange risk it entered into swap transactions.
On December 6, 2013 the Company entered into a borrowing agreement with Banco Ita BBA S.A.,
Nassau Branch, in the amount of US$16.9 million (equivalent to R$40.0 million). Principal was settled
in a bullet payment on January 30, 2015 without rolling over. In order to eliminate the foreign
exchange risk on this borrowing, on the same date of the borrowing the Company entered into a
swap transaction with Banco Ita BBA S.A. in the amount of R$40.0 million in order to convert the
obligations (principal and interest) into local currency and on the same maturity dates.
On December 31st, 2014, the Company did not possessed purchase orders with foreign suppliers of
equipment valued, being the value presented (US$ 0.3 million) in foreign suppliers account related
basically to installment purchase of equipment (in 2013 these orders totaled US$ 71.3 million, and in
2012 these orders totaled US$ 72.8 million).

(iii) degree of subordination between the debts


The Debentures issued by the Company are all unsecured debentures.
Most of the guarantees offered by the Company refers to loans contracted in previous years, when
the financial situation required that the Company offered substantial guarantees to facilitate its access
to credit.
After its initial public offer of shares held in April 2010, the Company conducted financing operations
with real guarantee only for FINAME, credit line from BNDES to finance investments in manufacturing
portion of its equipment, where, at the request of the financing contract, the equipment
manufactured is disposed to the end of the financing contract, presenting a balance of R$ 33.1 million
in 31st of December, 2014.
The management of the Company believes that the existing terms relating to the provision of
guarantees does not significantly restrict the ability to contract new debt to meet our capital needs.\

(iv) any restrictions imposed on the issuer, in particular, for limits of indebtedness and contracting of
new debts, the distribution of dividends, disposal of assets, the issuance of new securities or disposal
of corporate control
Some of the Companys long-term financial instruments contain obligations relating to the
maintenance of certain levels for determined financial indicators. The main conditions imposed on
financial instruments entered into by the Company are: (i) the ratio between EBITDA and net debt

17

(total bank debt minus cash equivalents); and (ii) the ratio between EBITDA and net financial
expenses. Thus, the Company is required to maintain a relatively low indebtedness and a satisfactory
capacity to pay its financial obligations, and the hiring of new borrowings should meet these
prerequisites. On the fiscal years ended December 31st, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Company was in
compliance with the required levels for the indicators.
Additionally, some of the Companys long term financial instruments have restrictions related to (i)
change of transfer of the controlling stake (direct or indirect) and (ii) asset disposals when the
amount represents more than 15% of the total assets of the Company, based on the consolidated
Financial Statements of the Company. In the case the Company is in default of any of its financial
obligations, it will not be able to distribute any profits to its shareholders above the minimum
mandatory dividend as determined by Law, as defined in the relevant documents.
The management of the Company believes that the current provisions will not significantly restrict the
ability to recruit new debt to meet its capital needs.

g.

limits of use of financing already concluded

On December 31, 2014, the Company had no limits to use in financing transactions already
contracted. At the same date the Company had unsecured overdraft account, not used, reviewed
annually of 570.2 million and Secured bank credit account used of R$ 64.5 million, with varying
maturities and that can be extended in a common agreement.
On December 31, 2013, the Company had no limits to use in financing transactions already
contracted. At the same date the Company had unsecured overdraft account, not used, reviewed
annually of 477.5 million and Secured bank credit account used of R$ 71.5 million, with varying
maturities and that can be extended in a common agreement.
On December 31, 2012, the Company had no limits to use in financing transactions already
contracted. At the same date the Company had unsecured overdraft account, not used, reviewed
annually of 492 million and Secured bank credit account used of R$ 72 million, with varying maturities
and that can be extended in a common agreement.
The Company maintains relationships with major financial institutions operating in Brazil and, the
evaluation of its board has conditions and the risk rating of credit that enable the Company to
contract new debt in the amount required to meet the current needs of cash for short and long term.

h.

significant changes in each item of the financial statements

In accordance with the existing accounting policies adopted in Brazil, the revenue reported in the
income statement should include only the gross inflows of economic benefits received and receivable
by the Company, when originating from their own activities. Amounts collected on behalf of third
parties - such as sales taxes, taxes on goods and services and from taxes on added value - do not
generate benefits for the Company and do not result in an increase in equity and therefore are
excluded from revenue. Thus, the comments below relating to variations between the results for the
years ended December 31st, 2012, 2013 and 2014 refer only to net revenue, not to the gross
revenue.

Year ended December 31st, 2014 compared with year ended December 31st, 2013
Revenue of Products Sold and Services Provided
In the year ended December 31st, 2014 the Companys net revenue from sales and services reached
R$ 794.2 million. For comparison purposes, there was an reduction of R$ 38.1 million, or 4.6% yoy.
This decrease comes mainly from the lower revenue from sales and technical assistance. The analysis
of the Company's management regarding the factors that led to these changes is listed below.
Heavy Construction
Net revenue from the Heavy Construction business unit totaled R$ 211.0 million in 2014, with a slight
drop of 2.7% compared to 2013. The management of the Company attributed this reduction as a
result of the 29.7% drop in sales revenues, technical assistance and others, due to projects not
favorable to equipment purchase, instead of renting.
Real Estate
Net revenue from the Real Estate business unit, totaled R$ 212.4 million in 2014, with a drop of
17.7% compared to 2013, negatively impacted by a decrease of 17.9% in rental revenues and of
25.3%, in sales revenues. The management of the Company attributed this reduction as a result of a
deterioration of Real Estate market in Brazil, influenced by political and economic uncertainties,
higher interest rates and weakness of economic activity.
Rental

19

Net revenue from the Rental business unit totaled R$ 370.8 million in 2014, new annual record, being
3.8% greater than that 2013. On the evaluation of the management of the company, this increase is
mainly associated with increasing fleet of equipment and, therefore, in rented volume due to
investments in organic growth since 2010.

Horizontal analysis, which is the percentage of variation in the income statement accounts between fiscal years of 2011 and 2012.

In the year ended December 31st, 2013 the Companys net revenue from sales and services totaled
R$ 832.3 million. For comparison purposes, excluding the result of the Industrial Services business
unit, which was sold in 2012, there was an increase of R$ 166.8 million, or 25.1%. This increase
comes mainly from the incremental revenue from the Rental and Heavy Construction business units.
The analysis of the Company's management regarding the factors that led to these changes is listed
below.
Heavy Construction
Net revenue from the Heavy Construction business unit, totaled R$ 217.0 million in 2013, with an
increase of 24.6% or R$ 42.9 million compared to the previous year. The management of the
Company attributed this expansion as a result of the investments in organic growth made in this
business unit, since 2010.
Real Estate
Net revenue from the Real Estate business unit, totaled R$ 258.0 million in 2013, with an increase of
8.4% or R$ 20.0 million compared to 2012, including expansion of 15.9% of the revenue from
equipment rental. The branches opened since November 2009 contributed with 55% of this business
units revenue in the year 2013. The management of the Company attributed this expansion as a
result of the investments in organic growth made in this business unit, since 2010.
Industrial Services
The sale of the Industrial Services business unit was concluded in November 30, 2013, and the
Company recorded gain of R$ 8.3 million with the sale. Of the agreed sales price of R$ 102 million, (i)
R$ 25 million was received on the date of the sale agreement, in July; (ii) R$ 17 million were paid in

22

April 2014, net of R$ 6.8 million related to adjusts settled between the Buyer and the Company; and
(iii) the outstanding amount of R$ 60 million will be paid in annual installments adjusted by the
Interbank Deposit Certificate CDI rate. This disposal is in line with Mills strategy to focus on
businesses in which its competences are able to add higher value for its shareholders and clients.
Rental
Net revenue from the Rental business unit totaled R$ 357.3 million in 2013, which was 41.0% or R$
103.8 million greater than that 2012. The branches opened since 2010 contributed with 69% of 2013
revenue. On the evaluation of the management of the company, this increase is mainly associated
with increasing fleet of equipment, with investments in organic growth since 2010.

Taxes on Sales and Services


In accordance with existing accounting policies adopted in Brazil, the revenue reported in the
financial statement should include only the gross inflows of economic benefits received and receivable
by the Company, when originating from their own activities. Amounts collected on behalf of third
parties - such as sales taxes, taxes on goods and services and from taxes on added value - do not
generate benefits for the Company and do not result in an increase in equity and therefore are
excluded from revenue. Thus, the Company has not reported for the years ended December 31, 2012
and 2013, figures comparable to this item.

Since 2010, the Company began to detail its costs of goods sold and general and administrative
expenses by business segment and by nature, and the information by business segment has been
presented only on a consolidated basis, excluding the effects of depreciation.

the operation of its warehouses and maintaining the high technical quality of its services.
The ratio between the Companys operating, general, and administrative expenses in relation to the
net operating income went from 24.8% in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 to 27.1% in the

million) and negative net financial result (R$ 7.6 million).

On the Companys management opinion, the Company is one of the biggest specialized engineering
service provider, leading Brazilian market of suppliers in formwork and tubular structure supply and in
motorized access equipment for rental. The Company believes that its operational areas will offer
opportunities in the next years, due to, among other factors: (i) relevant investments in heavy
construction projects, as, for instance, the package of logistics concessions, concerning highways,
railways, ports and airports; (ii) high housing deficit and low penetration of housing credit; (iii) lowincome market government program (Minha Casa, Minha Vida); (iv) investments needed for the
Olympic Games in 2016; and (v) growing concern of companies with safety in work and productivity
gain, which may drive to the use of equipment and services provided by our Company.
All of these areas are directly affected by macroeconomic conditions changes in Brazil, specially the
growth of Gross Domestic Product GDP, interest rates, inflation, credit availability, level of

30

unemployment, exchange rates and commodities prices, the last two affect costs of equipment used
in companys activities. Consequently, these factors affect, indirectly, its operation and results.
The net revenues from sales and services are denominated in reais, and are derived from the rental
and sale of equipment, the provision of technical support services, and penalty payments for
unreturned or damaged equipment. The table below sets forth the participation of the net revenue
for the periods indicated:

Factors that materially affected operational outcomes

Cost of Products Sold and Services Rendered


Administrative Expenses

and Operational, General and

Its main cost of products sold and services rendered relates to costs for executing the projects in
which the Company are involved, including (i) personnel for assembly and disassembly of equipment
rented to its clients when such tasks are carried out by the Company; (ii) cost of the equipment subleased from third parties when the Companys inventories are insufficient to meet demand; (iii)
expenses with materials used in the provision of its services, which include individual safety
equipment, wood, paint and insulation material; and (iv) freight costs relating to the transportation of
equipment between its branches and eventually to its clients. Costs related to the execution of its
projects represented 73.4%, 43.7% and 44.0% of its principal costs of sales and services rendered,
excluding depreciation, in the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. On the
evaluation of the company's management, this reduction from 2012 to 2014 was due to the
expansion of equipment sales costs, mainly in the Real estate and Rental business units and, and to
the sale of the Industrial Services business unit.
In addition, the Company incurred in (i) costs deriving from the sale of equipment; (ii) depreciation of
equipment rented; (iii) expenses with equipment storage; and (iv) cost of assets sales and write-offs
of assets.
The Companys main general and administrative expenses refer to contract coordination,
encompassing the project teams and engineers in the commercial area, responsible for the
management and supervision of each of its projects, which correspond basically to salaries, payroll
charges and benefits, with the rest relating to travel, representation and communications expenses,
as well as the overhead of the administrative areas. Other material general and administrative
expenses include: (i) administrative expenses incurred with respect to its financial, investor relations,
and human resources departments, as well as its executive management, including salaries and
benefits, (ii) expenses in connection with the Companys employee profit-sharing plans and expenses
related to its stock option plans, and (iii) other administrative expenses, which include, in particular,
expenses resulting from adjustments to its provisions for contingencies.
In 2014 there were an increase in Allowances for Doubt Debt (ADD) account due to deterioration of
economic environment and the downgrading of corporate credit rating of several clients, that lead the
Company to adopt a more conservative approach. In addition, there are the investigations ongoing in

31

Heavy Construction Brazilian market. ADD represented 5.3% of net revenues in 2014, versus 2.0% in
2013 and 2.1% in 2012.
With equipment and maintenance operational synergy from Heavy Construction and Real Estate, we
will see improvement in operational efficiency and, consequently, a reduction in unit costs for
maintenance. In 2014, we had intense maintenance activities, in spite of weaker demand, to equalize
deferred maintenance of our equipment. From the second half of 2015, we should normalize the
maintenance activity, with a respective cost reduction.
Furthermore, we have some initiatives underway in order to reduce Company expenses, such as (i) a
leaner corporate structure and, thus, the disposal of some administrative and management positions;
(ii) procurement centralization; and (iii) insourcing of some third-party services, such as IT; among
others.

Financial Results
The Companys financial results consist of its financial expenses, net of financial revenues. The
Companys main financial expenses include interest payments on loans, leasing operations, and costs
associated with discounting to present value certain long-term receivables derived from the sale of
equipment owned by its former Events division. Its main financial revenues consist of income from its
financial investments and interest in connection with late payments by its clients.
The net financial result was a negative R$ 34.3 million, R$ 46.8 million and 67.6 million in 2012,
2013 and 2014, respectively. YOY variation is explained by an increase in gross debt and higher
interest rates in the period.

Impact of public politics


According to BNDES, investments in Brazil will reach R$ 1.5 trillion between 2015 and 2018, of which
R$ 598 billion in infrastructure the sector that accounts for the highest growth compared to 20102013 period, driven by the package of logistics concessions launched by the federal government in
2012, which includes R$ 187 billion in highways, railways and ports. However, there are major
uncertainties regarding its execution, which depends on better planning and on the definition of the
concession model and financing terms.
The expansion or contraction of housing credit and changes in interest rates influenced Real Estate
market in the past, therefore, it can affect future revenues of Real Estate business unit.

b.

Changes attributable to changes in prices, volume changes and introduction of


new products and services.

The Companys revenues have a direct correlation with changes in price and volume of equipment
rented to clients. Introduction of new products and services also directly impact revenue. As for
inflation, the correlation of its revenue is indirect, in the extent that the adjustments take place only
in the renewal or closing of new contracts, reflecting the past inflation. As regards to the exchange
rate fluctuation, currently there is no correlation to its revenue, except that the Rental segments
equipment are imported and hence have their acquisition cost in foreign currency. Consequently, in
the future, the rental revenue from this division may be influenced by possible in exchange rates
variations. The increase in revenues in 2012 and 2013 was due to an increased in rented and sales

32

volume, given the favorable market conditions and its geographic expansion. In 2014, rental
revenues were stable compared to 2013, being the consolidated revenues affected by lower sales
volume in the year.

c.

Impact of inflation, price variations of main inputs and products, exchange rate
and interest rate on operating profit and the issuer's financial result.

Companys operations and results are directly impacted by variations of: (i) Inflation rates, which
index are used to adjustment of Companys long-term contracts; (ii) Interest rates, that affect
interest-bearing debt of the Company; and (iii) cost of material used in construction works or
equipment maintenance of the Company.
The Companys expenses are subject to impact of inflation via wage increases for employees, a raise
in the cost of the hired services, such as freight, and inputs used in the provision of services and
through financial expenditure due to the remuneration of the debentures which are subject to
monetary restatement by the accumulated variation of IPCA. Moreover, the equipment the Company
invests in to use at its services are also subject to increases due to inflation and changes in
commodity prices, mainly steel and aluminum. In the case of Rental business unit, the prices of the
equipment the Company uses can increase according to the fluctuation of the exchange rate, because
they are imported.
10.3 The directors must comment on the relevant effects that the events listed below
may have caused or are expected to cause on the Companys financial statements or its
results

a.

Introduction or disposal of operating segment

b.

Constitution, acquisition or divestiture of shareholdings

In 2013, the Company sold, through the sale of the company Albuquerque Participaes Ltda., the
Industrial Services business unit, as described in item (b) below. The Company did not introduce or
dispose of any segment in fiscal years 2012, 2013 and 2014.

Sale of the Industrial Services business unit


On July 10, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of its Industrial Services
business unit for $ 102 million through the sale of its stake in the company Albuquerque Participaes
Ltda. For more information, see item 6.5 of this Reference Form.
The Industrial Services business unit recorded:

for the nine months ended September 2013 (end of the last quarter before the actual sale),
net profit of R$ 6.1 million 30 representing in the same period, 4.8% of total net profit of Mills, and
net income of R$ 168.4 million, over the same period, 21.3% of consolidated net revenue of Mills;

in fiscal year 2012, net income of R$ 2.3 million, in the same period, 1.2% of total net profit
of the Mills, and net income of R$ 213.8 million, over the same period, 24.3% of consolidated net
revenue of Mills.
The sale is aligned with the Companhys strategy to focus on businesses in which its competencies
are able to add higher value to its shareholders and clients. Therefore, the Company ceased to

33

operate in the Industrial Services sector, in which were offered access services, industrial painting,
surface treatment and thermal insulation, during both construction and maintenance phase of large
industrial plants.
The sale of the Industrial Services business unit was concluded in November 30, 2013, and the
Company recorded gain of R$ 8.3 million with the sale. Of the agreed sales price of R$ 102 million, (i)
R$ 25 million was received on the date of the sale agreement, in July; (ii) R$ 17 million were paid in
April 2014, net of R$ 6.8 million related to adjusts settled between the Buyer and the Company; and
(iii) the outstanding amount of R$ 60 million will be paid in installments adjusted by the Interbank
Deposit Certificate CDI rate. This disposal is in line with Mills strategy to focus on businesses in
which its competences are able to add higher value for its shareholders and clients.

c.

identified any impact of these amendments to existing standards.
To qualify as an investment entity, a reporting entity is required to:

obtain funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing them with investment
management services;

commit to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from
capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and

financial statements has been identified.

Transition Tax Regime


The Transition Tax Regime (RTT) was in effect until the enactment of the law that regulated the tax
effects of the new accounting methods to ensure tax neutrality. On May 13, 2014, Law 12,973 was
enacted, introducing, among other issues, the repeal of the Transitional Tax Regime (RTT) and the
Corporate Income Tax Return (DIPJ) and creating instead the Tax Accounting Bookkeeping (ECF).
The Tax Accounting Bookkeeping (ECF) will consolidate the tax neutrality adjustments that were
previously filed using the Transition Tax Accounting Control (FCONT). Pursuant to the aforementioned
Law, the adoption of the ECF is optional for taxable events recorded beginning January 2014 and
mandatory beginning 2015 for all corporate entities that elect taxation based on the actual profit. In
2014 the Company complied with the legal requirement, which was formalized through the option in
the DCTF (Declaration of Federal Tax Debits and Credits) of August 2014 filed with the Brazilian
Federal Revenue on October 28, 2014, as regards the prospective calculation of interest on capital,
dividends and the tax treatment of stock option plans. The other measures contained in such Law did
not have material impacts on the Company, according to an analysis made by the Company with its
tax advisors.

b.

Significant changes in accounting practices

There was no change in significant accounting practices, methods of calculation, judgments,


estimates and accounting assumptions in the financial statements of the company for the fiscal years
ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014.

c.

Qualifications or points on the auditors opinion

There were no points or qualification on the auditors opinion


10.5 The management shall indicate and comment on critical accounting policies
adopted by the issuer, by exposing mainly the accounting estimates made by
management on uncertain and relevant questions for description of the financial
situation and the results, which require subjective or complex judgments, such as:
provisions, contingencies, recognition of revenue, fiscal credits, long-term assets, useful
life of non-current assets, pension plans, conversion adjustments in foreign currency,
recovery environmental costs, standards for testing the recovery of assets and financial
instruments.

Estimates and judgments used in the preparation of Financial Statements

Preparation of the Companys financial statements requires Management to make judgments and
estimates and adopt premises that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as
well as disclosures of contingent liabilities as of the reporting date. Nevertheless, the uncertainty
relating to such assumptions and estimates may lead to results that require significant adjustment to
the carrying value of the asset or liability affected in future periods.
The main assumptions relating to sources of uncertainties in the future estimates and other
importance sources of uncertainty in estimates as of the reporting date, involving significant risk of
causing a major change in the carrying value of assets and liabilities in the next financial year, are as
set out below:

Impairment of non-financial assets


Transactions with payments based on shares
Taxes
Fair value of financial instruments
Provisions for tax, civil and labor risks
Useful life of fixed assets
Revenue recognition

Following, the Companys Management presents a discussion about what they consider relevant as
accounting practices for the presentation of Companys financial information.
(i)

Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the respective instrument.

37

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted
from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.
Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
(ii)

Current and deferred income tax and social contribution

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred taxes. Taxes on income are recognized in the
income statement, except when they relate to items that are recognized directly in equity or in other
comprehensive income, in which case, the tax is also recognized in equity or in other comprehensive
income.
The current income tax and social contribution expense is calculated based on tax rates prevailing in
Brazil at the end of the reporting period, which are 15% for income tax, plus a 10% surtax on taxable
profit exceeding R$240, and 9% on taxable profit for social contribution. Management periodically
reviews positions taken in respect of tax matters that are subject to interpretation and recognizes a
provision when the payment of income tax and social contribution according to the tax bases is
expected.
Deferred income tax and social contribution are calculated on temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases
used in the computation of taxable profit. The tax rates currently defined are 25% for income tax and
9% for social contribution.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
sufficient against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized, based on projections of
future results prepared on the basis of internal assumptions and future economic scenarios that are,
therefore, subject to changes.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to
allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are
recognized in Other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, current and deferred
taxes are also recognized in Other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively Where
current and deferred taxes arise from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect
is included in the accounting for the business combination.
(iii)

PP&E: Company use and rental and operational use

A majority of the Company revenues come from property, plant and equipment for operational rental
and use, either solely through rental, or rental combined with assembly and disassembly.
Property, plant and equipment for own use consists mainly of facilities to store equipment, office,
improvements, furniture and equipment necessary for the operation of these facilities.

38

Property, plant and equipment are carried at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation and
accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure directly attributable to the
acquisition of the property, plant and equipment items.
The items of PP&E are valued at historic cost, less accumulated depreciation. The historic cost
includes expenditures as well as any exchange rate hedge gain or loss cash flow directly attributed to
the acquisition of such fixed assets.
Subsequent costs are added to the residual value of property, plant and equipment or recognized as
a specific item, as appropriate, only if the future economic benefits associated to these items are
probable and the amounts can be reliably measured.
Depreciation is calculated under the straight-line method, taking into consideration the estimated
economic useful lives of assets. Land is not depreciated.
Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis
as owned assets or, where shorter, the term of the relevant lease.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as
the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is included in
operating income or expense.
The residual values and estimated useful lives of assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting
period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
(iv)

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of


acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (CGUs) for impairment testing purposes. Goodwill is
allocated to each of the cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to
benefit from the synergies of the combination and is identified according to the operating segment.
(v)

Impairment of assets

Property, plant and equipment and other non-current assets, including goodwill and intangible assets,
are tested to identify evidences of impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When applicable, the
recoverable amount is calculated to determine if there is an impairment loss.
When an impairment loss is identified, it is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of
the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of the net selling price and the value in
use of an asset. For impairment testing purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units - CGUs). Non-financial assets other
than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for the analysis of a possible reversal of the
impairment at the reporting date.
(vi)

Provisions

39

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a
result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The provisions for tax, civil and labor claims are recognized at the amount of probable losses,
according to the nature of each provision. Based on the opinion of its legal counsel, management
believes that the recognized provisions are sufficient to cover any losses on ongoing lawsuits.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle
the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation.
The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as expense.
A provision for onerous contracts is recognized where the Company has a contract under which the
unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits
expected to be received from the contract. The provision is measured at present value at the lower of
the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the
contract.
(vii)

Stock option plans

The Company offers stock option plans to certain employees and executives. The fair value of the
options granted is recognized as an expense during the period over which the right is vested, that is,
period during which specific vesting conditions should be met.
At the end of the reporting period, the Company reviews its estimates of the number of options
whose rights must be vested based on the conditions. It recognizes the impact of the review of the
initial estimates, if any, in the income statement, as a balancing item to the capital reserve in equity.
The amounts received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to capital when
options are exercised.
(viii)

Revenue recognition

Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognized by reference to the stage of completion of
the contract at the end of the reporting period.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the Company has transferred to the buyer the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods. Therefore, the Company adopts as revenue
recognition policy the date in which goods are delivered to the buyer.
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the equipment lease
agreements.
The Company separates the identifiable components of a single contract or a group of contracts to
reflect the essence of the contract or group of contracts, recognizing the revenue of each of the
elements proportionally to its fair value. Thus, the Company's revenue is split into lease, technical
assistance, sales and indemnities/recoveries of expenses.

40

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the
effective interest rate through maturity, when it is determined whether such income will accrue to the
Company.
Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholders right to receive such
dividends has been established (provided that it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to
the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably).
Income, expenses and assets are recognized net of taxes on sales.
10.6 Regarding the internal controls adopted to ensure the preparation of reliable
financial statements, the management shall comment on:

a.
Efficiency of such controls, indicating any flaws and the steps taken to correct
them
The management of the Company believes that its internal controls are adequate to ensure the
elaboration of reliable financial statements.

b.
Weaknesses and recommendations on internal controls present in the report of the
independent auditor
No deficiencies or recommendations were submitted by the independent auditors in their report about
the effectiveness of internal controls adopted by the Company.
10.7 Management comments on the use of resources from public offerings for
distribution of securities
In April 23rd, 2012, the Company issued a single series of 30 promissory notes with par value of R$
1.0 million, totaling R$ 30.0 million. The net proceeds of the issue were fully used to: (i)
reinforcement of working capital of the company; and (ii) debt refinancing of the company.
In August 15th, 2012, the Company held its second issue of simple, non-convertible, unsecured
debentures subject to public offering with restricted placement efforts. A total of 27,000 debentures
were issued, each with par value of R$ 10,000.00. The net proceeds of the offering were fully utilized
for: (a) the financing of investments to be made by the Company, (b) the payment of Companys
debts, and (c) general uses and expenses of the Company. The realized investments in renting goods
amounted to R$463.6 million in 2013.
On April 11, 2014, the Company issued promissory notes, totaling R$ 200 million and bearing interest
at 106% of the DI rate, to be settled with the debentures offering proceeds. The proceeds of these
offerings were used to (a) refinance indebtedness of the Company; (b) purchase rental equipment
and (c) general corporate purposes and expenses of the Company.

On May 18th, 2014, the Company held its third issue of simple, non-convertible, unsecured
debentures subject to public offering with restricted placement efforts. A total 20,000
debentures were issued, each with par value of R$ 10,000.00. The net proceeds of the

41

offering will be fully utilized for fully settlement of commercial promissory notes of
Companys fourth issuance, issued in April 11th, 2014.

10.8 Managements comments on significant items not included in the balance sheet
and their effects on the consolidated financial statements
In the evaluation of the management, there are no significant items not included in the balance sheet
of the Company.
10.9 Managements comments about the obligations not accounted in financial
statements.
In the evaluation of the management, there are no significant obligations not included on the
financial statements of the Company.
10.10 Management shall indicate and comment on key elements of the Company's
business, specifically exploring the following topics:

a.
Investments, including: (i) quantitative and qualitative description of investments
in progress and forecasted investments; (ii) financing sources of investments and (iii)
relevant alienations in progress and forecasted alienations
The Company plans its investment policy in accordance with its demand prospects, cash flow and
credit availability in the market. The Companys internal policy is to maintain its leverage around 1.0x
net debt to EBITDA. To ensure the necessary amount of capital for the implementation of its
investment plan, the Company constituted a statutory reserve, of which the shareholders may
allocate up to 75% of net income, provided that such reservation does not exceed the limit of 80% of
the capital. The cash generation of the Companys normal operations, from the retention of profits
was used to partially finance the investments made in 2012, 2013 and 2014. In 2014, the amount of
R$ 2.4 million were designated to this reservation, whereas there was not any amount for this
reservation in 2012 and 2013. The management presents below the major investments made in the
course of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, and highlight the investment budget
for fiscal year 2015.

Investments in 2012, 2013 and 2014


The Company experienced a period of rapid expansion in 2012, 2013 and 2014, mainly due to the
investments and geographic expansion of Real Estate and Rental business units. Companys principal
investments in this period are described below:

Real Estate

42

Over the past three fiscal years ended by December, 31st, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Real Estate
business unit invested mainly in acquisition of shoring equipment, suspended scaffolding and
industrialized formworks, having disbursed R$ 59.8 million in 2012, R$ 90.1 million in 2013 and R$
19.3 million in 2014.

Rental
In 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Company continued to implement its strategy of expanding its portfolio
of aerial work platforms and telescopic handlers, investing R$ 160.9 million, R$ 267.2 million and R$
105.3 million in the acquisition of such equipment, respectively.
The Company intends to finance its investments with (i) cash generated in its own activities, and (ii)
indebtedness.

Investments planned for 2015


In 2015, the Company aims to invest R$ 33.6 million, of which R$ 10.1 million in replacement of
rental equipment mix of Heavy Construction and Real Estate business units and R$ 23.5 million to
improvements in maintenance processes , facilities of our branches and IT.

b.
Since it has already disclosed, indicate the purchase of plants, equipment, patents
or other assets that should materially affect the productive capacity of the Company
In 2015 we will reduce significantly our investment levels to a maximum amount of R$ 40 million,
being the majority of it for maintenance processes and facilities of our branches. In the Heavy
Construction and Real Estate business units we will invest to maintain the actual fleet, with the
acquisition of necessary spare parts to keep the equipment mix. In the Rental business unit we will
continue the geographic expansion, using the existing fleet.

c.
New products and services, by indicating: (i) description of researches in progress
already disclosed; (ii) total amounts paid by the issuer in researches for development of
new products or services; (iii) projects under development already disclosed and (iv)
total amounts paid by the issuer for the development of new products or services
The Companys management believes that providing innovative solutions is a constant mark of its
activities and a key aspect to retain its customers. In this sense, although the Company does not
carry out in-house research and development activities, it annually visits the main national and
international fairs of equipment from the industrial and construction sectors to meet the main
technological innovations available to the industry in which the company operates. Furthermore, the
Companys representatives visit the factories of leading national and international manufacturers of
equipment and construction sites around the world to assess the functioning and operation of
advanced equipment available for purchase.
The Company does not develop new products and services, so it does not incur expenses related to
the research and development department. All the technology and innovation present in its
equipment and offered to its clients come from its suppliers. For this, the Company seeks to acquire
or license new technologies from third parties on acceptable terms in the domestic and international
market, preferably with usual suppliers with whom the Company seeks to establish long term
partnerships. As an example of such partnerships, the Company entered into a licensing contract in

43

1996 with the German company NOE Schaltechnik, to produce and supply modular steel and
aluminum panel formwork (replacing the wood) for the Brazilian construction market, an innovation in
the Brazilian market.
10.11 Management is expected to discuss and analyze other material factors that
influenced operating performance, which were not discussed under previous items in this
section.
There are no other factors to comment on about operational performance of 2012, 2013 and 2014
results.

Information contained in items 13 of the Reference Form

PROPOSAL FOR DIRECTORS REMUNERATION


The proposal of global remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors and Executive Officers
for the fiscal year 2015, totaling R$ 12,835,697.25 (twelve million, eight hundred and thirty five
thousand, six hundred ninety seven reais and twenty five centavos), was approved in the Board of
Directors Meeting, held on March 9, 2015.
The approved amount does not consider the effects, on the Companys income statement, the
recorded fair value of the options granted to its managers, which does not imply disbursement by the
company.
ITEM 13 OF THE REFERENCE FORM
13.1 Description of the compensation policy or practices for the Executive Board, the
Statutory and Non-Statutory Boards, the Fiscal Committee, the Statutory Committees
and the Audit, Risk, Finance and Compensation Committees, covering the following
topics:

a.

Objectives of the compensation policy or practices

Board of Directors
For the Board of Directors of the Company, the total remuneration is fixed in a discretionary amount
determined by the general meeting, with no relationship with the remuneration policy applicable to
officers and other employees of the Company and, therefore there is no goal of the policy or specific
remuneration practice of this body defined by the human resources department of the Company.
As part of total discretionary remuneration approved by the general meeting, there is a fixed
component and a variable component, according to the results of the Company. The Company
believes that the variable remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors is a way to
encourage them to successfully lead the Company's business by aligning the interests of members of
the Board of Directors with those of shareholders.
Statutory Directors and Non-Statutory Directors
For statutory directors and non-statutory directors of the Company, the remuneration policy aims to
attract and guarantee that the qualified professionals required remain in the Company and have a
proper remuneration. The fixed amount of the remuneration of the Directors includes the salary and
direct and indirect benefits tailored for statutory directors and non-statutory directors. In addition to
the fixed compensation, there is a variable component, which includes profit-sharing in the
Companys results and the granting of stock options or subscribing to shares issued. The Company
believes that the profit-sharing and stock option programs benefiting statutory directors and nonstatutory directors is a way to motivate them to carry out the Companys business in its best interest,

48

thus stimulating an entrepreneurial and results orientated culture in line with the interests of both
shareholders and management.
Fiscal Council
Members of the Fiscal Council are entitled to remuneration equivalent to 10% of the average
remuneration of the statutory directors, corresponding to the minimum set by law. In this way, their
remuneration is not correlated to the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other employees
of the Company and therefore there is no objective of the policy or practice of remuneration for that
body.
Advisory Committee
The members of the Human Resources Committee and Strategic Committee will be entitled to
remuneration equivalent to 50% of the monthly remuneration of the members the Board of Directors.
The Committee members who are officers, managers or employees of the Company shall not be
entitled to remuneration. The remuneration of members of the Committee may be amended at any
time by the Board. The purpose of this remuneration policy is to adequately compensate Committee
members for time spent in office, except by those who are already paid by the Company as its
directors or employees.

b.
Composition of compensation packages: (i) description of the different elements of
the compensation packages and the objectives of each of them; (ii) proportion of each
element to make up the total compensation package; (iii) the method for calculating and
adjusting each of the elements in the compensation packages; and (iv) reasons for the
composition of remuneration
(i) Description of the different elements of the compensation packages:

Salary and pro-labore


The fixed remuneration of the statutory directors and non-statutory directors is designed to recognize
and reflect the value of the job position internally and externally, considering the competitors of the
Company and companies of similar size in terms of their gross revenues. The comparison with the
market remuneration is carried out by a hired market research consulting firm or through database
purchased from a consultant. The Company conducted market research with company Towers
Watson in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Additionally, the Company uses the database of market
remuneration from the consulting company Towers Watson.
For the Board of Directors of the Company (and consequently the Advisory Committee), the
remuneration, fixed and/or variable (the last as bonus), is discretionary determined by the general
meeting with no relationship with the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other employees
of the Company and therefore there is no objetive of a policy or remuneration practice of this body.
Members of the Fiscal Council are entitled to remuneration equivalent to 10% of the average
remuneration of the statutory board, corresponding to the minimum set by law. In this way, their
remuneration is not correlated to the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other employees
of the Company and therefore there is no aim of policy or practice of remuneration for that body.

49

Direct and indirect benefits


Granted exclusively to statutory directors and non-statutory directors, the direct and indirect benefits
include medical assistance, life insurance, vehicle leasing and food vouchers, aiming to ensure
competitiveness in the market. The comparison with the benefits of the market is carried out by a
market research conducted by a hired consulting firm or through database purchased from a
consultant. The Company conducted market research with company Towers Watson in 2012, 2013
and 2014. Additionally, the Company uses the database with market remuneration from the
consulting company Towers Watson. The member of the Board of Directors, Fiscal Council and
Advisory Committees are not entitled to any direct and indirect benefits.

Profit-sharing and bonus


Granted to statutory directors and non-statutory directors, the profit-sharing program aims to
motivate management to carry out the Companys business in its best interest, thus stimulating an
entrepreneurial and results orientated culture in line with the interests of both shareholders and
management. Eventual bonuses paid to members of the Board of Directors, discretionary determined
by the general meeting with no relation with the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other
employees of the Company, have the same goal.
The members of the Fiscal Council and Advisory Committee are not entitled to the profit-sharing
program.

Stock options or subscription to shares


Granted exclusively to statutory directors and non-statutory directors, the stock option or subscription
to shares aim to motivate management to carry out the Companys business in its best interest, thus
stimulating an entrepreneurial and results orientated culture in line with the interests of both
shareholders and management.
Members of the Board of Directors, Fiscal Council and Advisory Committees are not entitled to stock
option or subscription to shares.

(iii) Method for calculating and adjusting each of the elements in the compensation packages:

50

The fixed portion of compensation paid to statutory directors and non-statutory directors is
determined based on market standards, and readjusted annually at regular levels to account for the
loss in currency value or for merit by performance.
In terms of the profit-sharing program granted to statutory directors and non-statutory directors, and
to bonus, payed to the members of Board of Directors, this plan is based on the aggregate economic
value, which consists of the adjusted net profit deducted from shareholder remuneration. If positive,
a percentage between 20% and 30%, which will be annually decided by the Board of Directors
starting from 2012, of the Economic Value Added (EVA) will be distributed to management and
employees, and whose portion will be defined in an increasing manner in accordance with their
hierarchical level in the Company and results obtained by their respective business segments. i.e. in a
proportion of 75% in 2012 and 60% from 2013 based on the segments results that the manager or
employee in question is linked to, and 25% in 2012 and 40% from 2013 based on the result of our
Company as a whole. For the employees of corporate areas, the program considers the total result of
the company. In 2013 the Company distributed R$ 20.1 million for the results of 2012 and in 2014
will be distributed R$ 18.7 million for the results of 2013. In 2015, the Company will not distribute
any amount related to the results of 2014.
Regarding the to the stock option plan to purchase or subscribe shares, granted to the statutory
directors and non-statutory directors, the number of options granted is proportional to the investment
made in the Company's shares with resources obtained from the profit sharing program described
above. Additionally, the Board of Directors may distribute discretionary stock options or subscription
shares to statutory directors and non-statutory directors, that is, independent of the investment made
in the Company's shares with resources obtained from the profit sharing program described above,
based on merit, performance and/or outcome.
For the Board of Directors of the Company (and the Advisory Committees), the remuneration is
discretionary determined by the general meeting with no relation with the remuneration policy
applicable to officers and other employees of the Company and therefore there is no goal at the
policy or remuneration practice of this body. Members of the Fiscal Council are entitled to
remuneration equivalent to 10% of the average remuneration of the statutory board, corresponding
to the minimum set by law. In this way, their remuneration is not correlated to the remuneration
policy applicable to officers and other employees of the Company and therefore there is no aim of
policy or practice of remuneration for that body. So, there is no method of calculation and adjustment
of each element of remuneration.
(iv) Reasons for the composition of remuneration:
For the statutory directors and non-statutory directors, the policy aims in the remuneration of
professionals based on the responsibilities inherent in their job positions, market practices and the
Companys level of competiveness.
For the Board of Directors, the Advisory Committee and the Fiscal Council, the remuneration paid by
the Company is fixed, in a discretionary amount determined by the general meeting, in case of Board
of Directors (and consequently the Advisory Committees), and according to the law, in case of Fiscal
Council. The remuneration of the members of these bodies has no relation with the remuneration
policy applicable to officers and other employees of the Company and therefore there is no goal at
the policy or remuneration practice of this body.

51

For the statutory directors and non-statutory directors and the members of the Board of Directors,
the variable portion is justified by the Companys focus on results and the target of aligning
management interests with those of the shareholders of Company.
For the members of the Board of Directors who participate on Advisory Committees are entitled to
individual monthly remuneration equivalent to 50% of the individual monthly remuneration of the
Board of Directors members. Statutory officers who participate on Advisory Committees are not
entitled to any compensation.

c.
Main performance indicators that are taken into consideration when determining
each element of the compensation package
The main performance indicator used to determine the variable component of management
remuneration is the Companys Economic Value Added (EVA), which is calculated from the net profit
of the Company, deducting from this remuneration the capital invested in the Company by the
shareholders, which is the invested capital in the Company at book value multiplied by the weighted
average cost of capital of the Company. The variable portion of remuneration is determined from the
economic value generated in the Company and in the business segment, under its responsibility.

d.
How the compensation package is structured to reflect the development of the
performance indicators
The remuneration consists of a significant variable portion, represented by profit-sharing of the
Companys results, and the values to be distributed are directly proportionate to the Companys
Economic Value Added (EVA), calculated annually in accordance with the formula described in item
(c) above.

e.
How the compensation policy is aligned with the Companys short-, medium- and
long-term interests
The remuneration monthly paid to statutory directors and non-statutory directors is in line with the
short-term interests of the Company to attract and retain qualified professionals. The profit-sharing
and stock options plan are aligned with the medium-to-long-term interests of the Company to
motivate management to carry out the Companys business, stimulating an entrepreneurial and
results-orientated culture, to the extent that both shareholders and directors benefit from
improvements in the results and increases in the price of the shares.
For the Board of Directors of the Company (and consequently the Advisory Committees), the
remuneration is fixed in discretionary amount determined by the general meeting with no relation
with the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other employees of the Company, and
therefore there is no goal at the policy or remuneration practice of this body. The members of the
Fiscal Council are entitled to remuneration equivalent to 10% of the average remuneration of the
statutory board, corresponding to the minimum set by law. In this way, their remuneration is not
correlated to the remuneration policy applicable to officers and other employees of the Company and
therefore there is no aim of policy or practice of remuneration for that body.
For the Board of Directors, the bonus, which is based on profit-sharing, being also directly
proportional to the Economic Value Added (EVA), is in line with the Companys mid and long term
best interest of stimulating an entrepreneurial and results orientated culture.

52

f.
Existence of compensation supported by subsidiaries, and direct or indirect
affiliates or holding companies
Not applicable. There is not any remuneration supported by subsidiaries, and direct or indirect
affiliates or holding companies.

g.
Existence of any compensation or benefits connected to the occurrence of a given
corporate event, such as the sale of the Companys controlling interest
Not applicable. There is no remuneration or benefits connected to the occurrence of a given
corporate event, such as the sale of the Companys controlling interest.

(Stock Option Plan - 2010), with amendments approved by the Board of Directors Meeting held on
May 31, 2010 and by the Extraordinary General Shareholders meeting held on April 20, 2012. The

Plan (1/2010 Program); (ii) on March 25th, 2011, the Program 1/2011 Stock Options Plan (1/2011
Program); (iii) on May 30th, 2012, the Program 1/2012 Stock Options Plan (1/2012 Program); (iv)

b. Major Plan Objectives:


The aim of the Stock Options Plan is to allow for the Companys managers or employees or those in
any of its subsidiaries, subject to determined conditions, to acquire shares in the Company, for the
purpose of (i) stimulating expansion, determining and implementing the Companys corporate
guidelines; (ii) align the interests of the Companys shareholders with those of its managers and
employees or other entities it controls; and (iii) allow the Company or its subsidiaries to attract and
retain the managers and employees it requires.
c.

How the plans contribute for the achievement of these objectives:

As most of the options are available over the long term, the beneficiaries tend to stay with the
Company until at least the time they can contribute to its long-term results.
d. How the plan is included in the Companys compensation policy
As mentioned in Item 13.1b, this plan is part of the variable compensation package paid to the
Companys officers.

interests at short, mid and long term
The stock option plan, in general, aligns the medium and long term interests to encourage the
Administration to conduct the company's business success, stimulating entrepreneurial and resultsoriented culture, to the extent that both the shareholders and the directors benefit from
improvements in income and increases in stock market quotation. The establishment of a waiting
period before which the options cannot be exercised (vesting period), ensures that this alignment is
found in the short, medium and long term.
f. The maximum number of shares options to be granted:
The stock options granted within the scope of this plan confer the rights to acquire up to 5% of
shares of the Companys capital stock, throughout the period of validity of the plan, considering all
the options already granted under the Plan, exercised or not, except those which have been extinct
and not exercised as long as the total number of shares issued or can be issued under the Plan is

13.9 Summary of relevant information aiming at a broader understanding of data
presented under items 13.6 through 13.8 above, as well as an explanation of the pricing
method used for stock and option values

a. Pricing model
The programs granted from 2010 onwards were classified as equity instruments, which the weighted
average fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model using as
premises: (a) weighted average share price, (b) exercise price, (c) expected volatility, (d) dividend
yield, (e) expected option life and (f) annual risk-free interest rate. The equity portion is priced only
at the grant date and the fair value is not remeasured on every reporting date. The portions of equity
and debt are appropriated plan by plan, taking into consideration the respective lock up periods
(period in which shares are blocked for trading), based on management's best estimate as to their
end dates.

b. Data and assumptions used in the pricing model


The table below shows the data and assumptions of our pricing model:
