Comments of the MAnagement about the Company’s Financial Situation

Item 10 of Reference Form, CVM Instruction 480/2009, of December 7, 2009 (“ICVM 480”)

10.1      General Financial and Equity Conditions

 

(a)         general financial and equity conditions

 

The Group’s operating and financial information, presented herein, includes the effects of the partnership between Via Varejo S.A. and Nova Casas Bahia, which took place in December 2009, and their financial statements were consolidated as of November 2010. Therefore, the consolidation of results related to all months only occurred in 2011.

 

We believe that the Company presents the financial and equity conditions required for the execution of its plans for capital expansion and investment, while also meeting all liquidity requirements and complying with short and long-term obligations. Even so, these conditions are subject to certain events beyond our control, such as the stability and behavior of the Brazilian economy.

 

Our understanding of the Company’s financial and equity conditions is based on the following economic and financial fundamentals, considering our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12

 


 

 

(b)         capital structure and eventual redemption of shares

 

We understand that Company’s current capital structure, mainly measured by the Net Debt/EBITDA ratio of 0.93x, shows a leverage level compatible with the Company's policies, which project a Financial Net Debt/EBITDA ratio of around 1x. See below:

For further information regarding the changes perceived in the chart above, see note “Receivable Securitization Fund – Pão de Açúcar (“PAFIDC” e “Globex FIDC”)” below.

 

 

(c)         ability to pay financial commitments

 

On December 31, 2012, EBITDA was R$ 3.668 billion, while net financial result was a negative R$ 1.193 billion. Therefore, EBITDA reported an interest coverage ratio of 3.1 times in relation to Company’s financial expenses in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

 

The aforementioned results evidence that Company’s cash flow, as well as available funds, Company’s ability to pay is appropriate in order to deal with its short and long-term financial commitments.

13

 


 

 

(d)         sources of financing for working capital and investments in non-current assets utilized by the Company

 

The Company may raise funds through: (A) financial agreements that represent: (i) Brazilian reais denominated loans with obligation to payment principal and DI (interbank deposit)-pegged interest rates; (ii) foreign currency-denominated loans, which are immediately and fully “swapped,” with Brazilian reais denominated payment obligations with DI-pegged interest rates, through swap operations; and (iii) loans with the Brazilian Economic and Social Development Bank (“BNDES”), partially denominated in reais and partially pegged to a foreign currency basket (also “swapped” with payment obligations denominated in reais with DI-pegged interest rates), plus annual interest rates; and (B) funding on capital markets, through the issue of debentures or securitization operations.

 

In 2012, Company had no difficulties in obtaining loans or refinancing its current debt. For more information on agreements entered into by the Company and the BNDES, see “Relevant Loan and Financing Agreements,” item "f,” below.

 

 

(e)         sources of financing for working capital and investments in non-current assets that the Company plans to utilize to cover liquidity deficiencies

 

For more information on Company’s funding sources for working capital and investments in non-current assets we plan to utilize to cover any liquidity deficiencies, see item ”d,” above.

Financial Lease Obligations

 

Financial lease agreements, which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are allocated between finance charges and reduction of leasing liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognized in the income statement. Leased assets are depreciated during their useful life. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will own the leased item upon the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over its estimated useful life or lease term, whichever is shorter.

The fund had its corporate name changed, answering by the denomination of Multicredit FIDC and no longer holds, on an exclusive basis, receivable from GPA.

 

As GPA holds no further participation on the current MultiCredit FIDC and no further obligation of absorbing any of the risks expected on Fund’s assets, the Fund are no longer consolidated since December 26, 2012.

 

b) Globex FIDC: The discount operations with credit cards by means of Globex FIDC were terminated on December 14, 2012, under mutual agreement between senior quotaholders.

Net sales revenues

 

Company’s net sales revenue increased 9.3%in 2012, from R$46,594 billion in 2011 to R$50,924 billion in 2012

 

On the retail food, the highlights were the conclusion of the process of convertion of Extra Fácil into Minimercado Extra, the consolidation of changings initiated on 2011 on Assaí, the resumption of the expansion process of label Pão de Açúcar and the strengthening of Extra as a nationwide player.

  

It was the first full year of the operation of Extra Supermercado. Up to the last quarter of 2011, the label operated only by means of Extra Hiper. In the last quarter of the year it was launched Extra Delivery, which consolidates the label Extra as a multichannel.

 

The Company finished December with 1,568 thousand m² on selling area on food retail. The growth on the area was of 4.8%, or 72.0 thousand m², with a total of 55 open stores, with highlight for the growth of Minimercado Extra.

 

On Via Varejo, we highlight the repositioning and improvement of the assortment of products on Ponto Frio stores, as well as the positive effect on the sales results by means of the maintenance of IPI reduction for white line. In general, as per deflation on electro category and inflation over categories like furniture and mattress on the last 12 months, as published by IBGE, considering the assortment of stores and Nova Pontocom, the real growth was of 7.9%.

 

In 2011, net sales revenue increased 45.2%, from R$32.092 billion in 2010 to R$46.594 billion.

 

Among the factors that contributed to increase our net sales revenue in 2011 were mainly: (i) the consolidation of results from Novas Casas Bahia, (ii) the opening of 41 stores, (iii) the completion of the conversion of CompreBem and Sendas to Extra Supermercado (which represents higher growth than previous formats), (iv) the repositioning of Assaí and Mini Mercado Extra, (v) and Nova Pontocom (with high growth levels and the inclusion of new categories into its portfolio).

 

Gross Profit

Gross Profit went up from R$12,659 billion in 2011 to R$13,804 billion in 2012 a growth of 9.0%. This increase was mainly due to growth on the sales at the same period, the gross margin was in 27.1% in 2012, a reduction of 0.1 percentage point in relation to 2011.

 

In 2011, gross profit went up 61.3%, from R$7.850 billion in 2010 to R$12.662 billion. This increase was chiefly due to: (i) better negotiations with suppliers, in line with a business strategy that applies specific IT systems, thus, enabling improved business management; (ii) consolidation of Nova Casas Bahia’s results, which, together with Ponto Frio and Nova Pontocom operations, mainly allowed scale gains with suppliers and access to a wider range of products.

Operating Revenue (Expenses)

We present total operating expenses of R$10,136 billion in 2012, an increase of 3.0%. as compared to those of 2011, on the amount of R$9,844 billion, increasing in an perceptual less than the increasing of net sales. Such expenses decreased from 17% of net sales in 2011, to 16.4% in 2012, and General Expenses and Ordinary Expenses were reduced from 3.6% of net sales in 2011 to 3.5% in 2012.

 

In 2011, total operating expenses came to R$9.620 billion, up 65.4% compared to R$5.817 billion in 2010. This increase was mainly due to: (i) the consolidation of Nova Casas Bahia’s results, particularly its furniture operations that contributed to an increase in operating expenses as percentage of net sales compared to other brands

 

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization ended at R$798 million in 2012, representing a growth of 17.7% compared to the depreciation of R$678 million in 2011. Such increase was mainly due the amortization of new investments done during the year of 2012.

 

In 2011, depreciation and amortization came to R$ 681 million, up 52.5% compared to a total of R$ 446 million in 2010, mainly due to: (i) the amortization of intangibles deriving from the business combination with Nova Casas Bahia; (ii) the consolidation of Novas Casas Bahia’s results.

 

Net Financial Result

Net financial result went decreased 10.5% in 2012, from R$1,333 billion in 2011 to R$1,193 billion. The referred decrease was mainly due to (i) reduction on indebting, at general by the restructuring of FIDCs; and (ii) reduction of CDI in which such average index reduced from 11.6% in 2011 to 8.4%.

 

Net debt totaled R$3,406 billion, a decrease of R$1.524 million compared to 2011, mainly by reason of changes in the structure of FIDCs (as described on item d above “financing sources for noncurrent used by the Company”).

 

In 2011, net financial result went up 61.9%, from R$823 million in 2010 to R$1.333 billion in 2011. This increase was chiefly due to: (i) an increase in debt to finance business growth; (ii) an increase in receivables discount due to the growth of home appliance segment. Net debt came to R$3.768 billion, down R$547 million from 2010, mainly due to (i) greater cash generation, (ii) higher volume of discounted receivables at the year’s end.

 

(i)          Operating Result

 

Company’s operating result increased 30.3% in 2012, from R$2,816 billion in 2011 to R$3,668 billion in 2012. This increase was basically due to: (i) 9.3% growth in net sales revenue; (ii) increase on the gross margin due a better mix of sales on food operations; (iii) costs control in the operation of electronics and (iv) reduction on financial costs due less indebting and reduction of interest rates, better management of deadlines to receive of clients and decrease on basic interest rates.

 

29

 


 

 

In 2011, operating result increased 48.8%, from R$1.587 billion in 2010 to R$2.361 billion in 2011. This increase was basically due to (i) 45.2% growth in net sales revenue, in line with improved negotiations with suppliers, and partially impacted by higher operating expenses.

 

Net Income from Controlling Shareholders

 

Due to the reasons mentioned above, net income was up 46.4% in 2012, from R$718 million in 2011 to R$1,051 billion in 2012.

Company’s credits decreased mainly due to restructuring of PAFIDC in December of 2012, which brought the deconsolidation of the payable balance.

 

On December 31, 2012, credits accounted for 12.4% of total assets, against 20.0% on December 31, 2011.

 

In 2011, credits, which include the following: accounts receivable, commercial agreements and receivable securitization funds, recoverable taxes, prepaid expenses and other, increased 24.4%, from R$5.430 billion in 2010 to R$6.753 billion in 2011.

This increase in sales was mainly due to the consolidation of Nova Casas Bahia’s results. On December 31, 2011, credits accounted for 20.0% of total assets, against 18.2% on December 31, 2010.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories were up 3.7% in 2012, from R$5,553 billion in 2011 to R$5,760 billion in 2012, an inferior increase to the sales growth. A better management of inventories benefits itself by investments on supply and IT accomplished in the last 2 years.

Long-term assets

 

Long-term assets were up 21.7% in 2012, from R$3,855 billion in 2011 to R$4,693 billion in 2012. This increase was mainly due to higher Recoverable Taxes – ICMS (State VAT). The Management of the subsidiary Via Varejo has prepared a technical feasibility study on the future realization of ICMS, considering the future expected offset of debt deriving from operations of Via Varejo and subsidiaries, within the context of main variables of their business. This study was examined based on information from the strategic planning report previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

 

On December 31, 2012, long-term assets accounted for 13.3% of total assets, against 13.4% on December 31, 2011.

 

In 2011, long-term assets were up 22.1%, from R$3,156 billion to R$3,855 billion in 2011. This increase was mainly due to higher Recoverable Taxes – ICMS (State VAT).

Investments

 

Investments were up 6.6% in 2012, from R$340 million in 2011 to R$362 million in 2012. This increase is only justified by the gain on shareholding of R$24 million. On December 31, 2012, investments accounted for 1.0% of total assets and 0.7% on December 31, 2011.

 

In 2011, investments were up 8.6%, from R$233 million in 2010 to R$253 million in 2011. This increase is only justified by the positive result of FIC and BINV, as no additions occurred in 2011. On December 31, 2011, investments accounted for 0.7% of total assets, in line with 0.7% on December 31, 2010.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment were up 10.3% in the year of 2012, from R$7,358 billion in 2011 to R$8,114 billion in 2012.

Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets were up 0.7% in 2012, from R$4,939 billion in 2011 to R$4,976 billion. This variation was chiefly due to: (i) R$123 million of additions, in which R$39 million of premium from Rede Duque and R$ 84 million from software additions, (ii) R$ 238 million of amortization on the fiscal year and (iii) R$ 151 million of transferences and other.

On December 31, 2012, taxes and contributions represented 1.8% of Company’s total liabilities compared to 1.0% at December 31, 2011.

10.2      Operational and financial results

 

(a)         results of operations, particularly: (i) description of any relevant component of our revenue; and (ii) factors that adversely affect our results of operations

 

Gross revenue increased 8.4% in 2012, as follows:

 

·         54.3%, i.e., R$31,097 billion derived from the sale of products classified under the GPA food product category, including grocery and perishable food products. Among the Group’s brands, the sales growth of Assaí and Extra Supermercado stood out; and

 

·         45.7%, i.e., R$26,137 billion, derived from the sale of Via Varejo and Nova Pontocom (with high levels of sales growth and inclusion of new categories in its portfolio), pointing out the sale of electronic products in Casas Bahia and Ponto Frio.

 

On a ‘same store’ basis, gross sales in nominal terms were up 6.5% over 2011 under the GPA food product category and 7.5% under Via Varejo.

 

In 2011, gross revenue increased 45.2%, as follows:

 

·         54.9%, i.e., R$25.577 billion derived from the sale of products classified under the GPA food product category, including grocery and perishable food products. Among the Group’s brands, the sales growth of Assaí and Extra Supermercado stood out; and

 

·         45.1%, i.e., R$21.017 billion, derived from the sale of Viavarejo (Globex), pointing out the consolidation of Nova Casa Bahia and Nova Pontocom results (with higher sales growth levels and the inclusion of new categories into its portfolio).

 

On a ‘same store’ basis, gross sales in nominal terms were up 8.8% over 2010. Furthermore, we point out the Company’s solid position in the non-food segment with the consolidation of Nova Casas Bahia’s results, while in 2010, only the months of November and December were considered. In 2011, all months were considered.

 

 

(b)         revenue variations due to changes in prices, exchange rates, inflation, volume changes and the launching of new products and services

 

The Company depends on the Brazilian macro-economic situation and other factors, such as unemployment rate, credit availability and average salaries growth in Brazil to define its financial condition and results of its operations.

 

Operating expenses, as well as cash expenditures (i.e., others rather than depreciation and amortization), are realized in Reais and vary according to inflation. In this regard, any increase in interest rates or inflation may raise the price of products at Company’s stores. On the other hand, as Company’s negotiations with suppliers are based on a large volume, Company’s exposure to the aforementioned variations may decrease.

 

 

41

 


 

 

(c)         impact of inflation, variations in the price of our main inputs and products, foreign exchange and interest rates on our operating and financial results

 

In addition to item “b,” above, the Company believes that depreciation or appreciation of Real against the US dollar affects and may continue affecting the results of its operations referring to imports, which approximately accounted for 2.8% of its sales in 2012 and 2.6% of its sales in 2011.

 

In 2012, Company’s financial result was mainly affected by charges on net bank debt and the cost of discounting receivables.

Additionally, they contain the following matters of emphasis:

 

2012

The independent auditor’s report on the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 included the following matter of emphasis related to the differences between the pronouncements issued by CPC and IFRS, regarding the separate financial statements of the parent company, as transcribed below:

 

“As mentioned in Note 2, the individual financial statements were prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. In the case of the Company, the practices differ from IFRS, applicable to separate financial statements, only to the equity method valuation applied for investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. For IFRS, these investments would be measured at cost or fair value. Our opinion is not reserved in reason of this matter.”

 

 

2010

The independent auditor’s report on the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 included the following matter of emphasis related to the adjustments in previous periods, as transcribed below:

 

“As mentioned in Note 2, the individual financial statements were prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. In the case of Via Varejo, the practices differ from IFRS, applicable to separate financial statements, only to the equity method valuation applied for investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. For IFRS, these investments would be measured at cost or fair value.”

 

 

10.5      Critical accounting policies

 

(a)       Officers must indicate and comment on the critical accounting policies adopted by the issuer, especially discussing accounting estimates made by Management on uncertain and relevant issues in the description of the Company’s financial condition and its results that require subjective or complex judgments, such as: provisions, contingencies, revenue recognition, tax assets, long-lived assets, useful life of non-current assets, pension plans, foreign currency translation adjustments, environmental recovery costs, impairment test criteria and financial instruments.

 

Judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the individual and consolidated financial statements requires that the management makes judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts stated of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at year-end, however, uncertainties relating to these assumptions and estimates may produce results that require substantial adjustments to the accounted amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods. In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has adopted the following judgments, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the individual and consolidated financial statements:

43

 


 

 

 

i)          Financial lease agreements - Company as lessee

 

The Company has entered into commercial property lease agreements in its leased property portfolio and, based on an evaluation of the terms and of conditions of the agreements, it retains all the significant risks and of rewards of ownership of these properties and recorded the agreements as financial lease

 

ii)         Impairment 

 

According to the method disclosed in Note 4 i) to the financial statements, the Company performed test to verify that the assets might not be recoverable and the year ended December 31, 2012, based on those tests, there was no need for the provision.

 

The procedure for verification of non-recoaverability of property and equipments, consisted in allocating operating assets and intangible assets (such as Commercial rights) directly attributable to the Cash Generanting Units – UGC (stores). The steps of the test were as follows:

 

Step 1: compared the carrying amount of UGCs with a multiple of sales (30%), representing transactions between retail companies. For UGCs multiple-valued lower than the carrying amount, we come to a more detailed method, described in Step 2;

 

Step 2: we prepare the discounted cash flow of UGC, using sales growth of between 5.1% and 6.7% until the 5th year, and growth of 2% above inflation for the 6th year onwards. The discount rate used was 10.8%.

 

iii)         Income taxes

 

Given the nature and complexity of the Company’s business, the differences between actual results and assumptions, or future changes to such assumptions, could result in future adjustments to already recorded tax revenue and expenses. The Company and its subsidiaries record provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for the eventual consequences of audits by the tax authorities of the respective countries in which it operates. The amount of these provisions is based on various factors, such as previous tax audits and different interpretations of tax regulations by the taxpayer and the appropriate tax authority. Such differences in interpretation may refer to a wide range of issues, depending on the conditions prevailing in the respective entity's domicile.

 

Deferred income and social contribution tax assets are recognized for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which to offset the losses. Significant Management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred income and social contribution tax assets that can be recognized, based on income estimates and future taxable income, based on the annual business plan approved by the Board of Directors.

 

44

 


 

 

The Company and its subsidiaries’ tax losses carryforward amounting to a tax benefit of R$796,771 at December 31, 2012 (R$764,524 at December 31, 2011). These losses do not expire, therefore their use is limited by law to 30% of taxable income for each year. The amounts relate to the Company and its subsidiaries that have tax planning opportunities for the use of these balancesGiven the nature and complexity of the Company’s business, the differences between actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes in these assumptions may result in future adjustments to tax income and expense already recorded. The

 

iv)        Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

        

When the fair value of financial assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements cannot be obtained in active markets, it is determined according to the hierarchy set by technical pronouncement CPC 38 (IAS39), which establishes certain valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow model. The data for these models are obtained, whenever possible, from observable markets or from information on comparable operations and transactions in the market. The judgments include the analyses of data, such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors may affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

 

The fair value of financial instruments actively traded on organized markets is determined based on market quotes, at the end of the reporting periods, without deducting transaction costs. For financial instruments not actively traded, the fair value is based on valuation techniques defined by the Company and compatible with usual market practices.  These techniques include the use of recent market arm’s length transactions, the benchmarking of the fair value of similar financial instruments, the analysis of discounted cash flows or other valuation models.

 

When the fair value of financial assets and liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be observed in active markets, it is determined by valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow method. The inputs used by these methods are collected from the market, where applicable. When these inputs are not available, judgment is required to determine the fair value. This judgment considers liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions for these factors may affect the fair value of the financial instruments if it is not possible to get

 

v)         Share-based Payment

 

The Company measures the costs of transactions with employees eligible to share-based remuneration based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date. Estimating the fair value of share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs for the valuation model, including the expected useful life of the stock options, volatility and dividend yield, as well as making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used to estimate the fair value of share-based payment transactions are disclosed in the notes to financial statements No. 27 f.

 

vi)        Provision for lawsuits

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to several judicial and administrative proceedings, see note to financial statements No. 24. Provisions for legal claims are recognized for all cases representing reasonably estimated probable losses. The assessment of the likelihood of loss takes into account available evidence, the hierarchy of laws, former court decisions and their legal significance, as well as the legal counsel’s opinion. The Company's management believes that the provisions for tax, civil and labor claims are adequately presented in the parent company and consolidated financial statements.

The compensation of Executive Officers consists of the following elements: (i) fixed remuneration reflected in a base salary, with the purpose of ensuring compliance with the general market practice; (ii) profit sharing plan, with the purpose of encouraging professionals to seek the success of the Company and of sharing Company’s results with them; and (iii) a stock option plan, which is an incentive offered to Company’s executives in order to ensure a sustainable and long-lasting business.

iii.         methodology for the calculation and readjustment of each element of the compensation

 

In order to determine the compensation of the management and committee members, we regularly conduct market research to evaluate if the parameters and conditions we adopt to determine the fixed compensation are satisfactory and enable us to retain Company’s professionals, as well to analyze the need to propose adjustments to any component of remuneration which may be misaligned. These surveys are conducted annually by recognized expert advice and market contracted by us, and use as benchmarks the major economic groups operating in the country, including in particular, the groups that operate in the retail sector

 

The profit sharing portion allocated to the Executive Officers, on the other hand, is computed based on indicators aligned to the Company’s strategic planning, determined in line with Company’s business plan and the goals to be met.

 

For additional information on Company’s  stock option plan please refer to item 13.4 below.

 

iv.         reasons that justify the composition of the compensation

 

What justifies the breakdown of Company’s  compensation policy is Company’s  result-oriented strategy, which depends on the continuous search for competent, qualified, dedicated and valuable professionals for the Company.

 

 

(c)         key performance indicators considered in determining each element of the compensation

 

For setting the variable portion of remuneration, we consider performance indicators that we consider strategic, as gross sales, net income, total expenditure, working capital, engagement and turnover, beyond the level of excellence of managers in performing their functions, considering the degree of responsibility and individual assignments. Performance indicators are not taken into consideration for determining the proportion of fixed remuneration

 

 

(d)         the way the compensation is structured to reflect the evolution of the performance indicators

 

We structure Company’s  compensation through programs that monitor the accomplishment of goals previously determined by the Company and the results effectively met.

 

 

(e)         the way the compensation policy or practice is aligned with the Company’s short, medium and long-term interests

 

For short, medium and long-term interests, we offer to the Executive Officers a fixed compensation (base salary) and a variable compensation (profit sharing and stock option plans).

 

The compensation of the members of the Board of Directors, Fiscal Council and other committees is readjusted based on the amount usually paid in the industry, encouraging such professionals to maintain the excellence in exercising their functions and to strive for the improvement of Company’s results. Therefore, we understand that the compensation policy or practice is aligned with Company’s short, medium and longterm interests.

53

 


 

 

 

 

(f)          existence of compensation supported by subsidiaries or direct or indirect controlling shareholders

 

The compensation of the management and committee members is supported exclusively by the Company.

 

 

(g)         existence of any compensation or benefit connected to the occurrence of a determined corporate event, such as the transfer of the Company’s controlling stock

 

No compensation or benefit is paid to the management or committee members in connection with the occurrence of corporate events.

13.4      Share-based compensation plan of the Board of Directors and Statutory Board of Executive Officers

 

On December 31, 2012, the Company had one stock-option plan, which was approved at an Special Shareholders’ Meeting held on December 20, 2006 (“Stock Option”). 

 

Company’s stock option plan is managed by a committee elected by Board of Directors, named Stock Option Management Committee (“Stock Option Committee”). This committee establishes the employees to periodically benefit from the stock options, based on the duties, responsibilities and performance, establishing the applicable conditions.

 

In addition to managing the Stock Option Plan, the Stock Option Committee is responsible for selecting the executives and the employees that are entitled to the options, in addition to determining the terms and conditions of each stock option agreement applicable to each beneficiary, including, but not limited to, the number of shares to be acquired, the acquisition conditions and prices, and the respective payments means.

58

 


 

 

 

The Executive Officers and some high-skill employees receive stock-based payments as part of their compensation. We recognize expenses with stock-based compensation on the fair value of premiums as of the grant date.

 

The Stock Option Plan includes only preferred shares issued by the Company

 

 

a.         General Terms and Conditions

 

Company’s Stock Option Committee usually develops annual cycles for the granting of options. Each granting cycle receives a serial number initiated by the letter A, starting from “Series A1”. In the year ended December 31, 2012, the options granted in Series A4 to the A6 are in full effect.

 

The options granted in the Stock Option Plan are divided into “Gold” and “Silver” options, which implies a change in the options’ exercise price, as explained in item (i) below.

 

The Stock Option Committee established the criteria to calculate the reduction and/or increase index (reducer or accelerator) for the number of options granted and classified as “Gold” in each series of the Stock Option Plan, according to the analysis of the concept of return on invested capital (ROIC). In accordance with item 3.3 of the Stock Option Plan, the Committee has decided that from Series A6, including, the increase or decrease of the number of “Gold” options shall be determined based on CBD’s “Return in Capital Employment”. For both criteria, the accelerator or reducer shall follow the hereunder terms:

 

(a) Accelerator: from 3%, for every 1% more than the return fee, increase by 0.5% the number of shares granted, classified as “Gold”.

 

(b) Reducer: from -3%, for each 1% less than the return fee, reduce by 0.5% the number of shares granted, classified as “Gold”.

 

That is:

 

 

 
 

 


59

 


 

 

b.         Plan’s Main Objectives

 

The objectives of the Stock Option Plan are: (i) to attract and retain highly qualified executives and professionals in the Company; (ii) to allow executives and employees to own Company’s  capital stock and the equity additions arising from the results said executives, employees and contractors have contributed to; and (iii) to align the interests of executives and employees with the interests of Company’s  shareholders, encouraging the good performance of these professionals and ensuring Company’s management continuity.

 

 

c.         The Way the Plan Contributes to the Achievement of these Goals

 

The Stock Option Plan beneficiaries are encouraged to generate more results for the Company so that they achieve their goals as executives and employees of the Company, and for the shares received as compensation to have their value increased over time

 

 

d.         The Way the Plan is included in the Company’s Compensation Policy

 

The Stock Option Plan is an element of the compensation of Company’s executives, and it is in line with the compensation policy, which goal is to retain executives and employees and to encourage better results.

 

 

e.         The Way the Plan Aligns the Interests of the Executives and of the Company in the Short, Medium, and Long terms

 

As the options are granted every year and based on Company’s results, we understand the Stock Option Plan is in line with Company’s short-term interests, since it encourage the beneficiaries to achieve their individual goals and the Company’s goals. Furthermore, it also retain Executive Officers and beneficiaries of the Stock Option Plans, in addition to attracting new professionals, which is in line with Company’s medium-term interests. Finally, as mentioned in item (j) herein, the beneficiaries of the Stock Option Plan will only be apt to exercise their options after a certain time working with the Company, which encourages them to generate better results in the long term so their shares gain value, in addition to retaining them for a longer period, in line with Company’s long-term interests.

 

 

f.          Maximum Number of Shares Involved

 

The maximum number of shares included in the Stock Option Plan is 15,500,000 preferred shares (as resolved by the Board of Directors at the meeting held on February 19, 2013).

 

The amount indicated above shall always observe the authorized capital limit of the Company and may be changed at any time by the Board of Directors. When the call options are exercised, it is issued new shares to the beneficiaries, observing Company’s  right to use treasury shares.

 

 

60

 


 

 

g.         Maximum Number of Options to be Granted

 

There is no maximum number of options to be granted within the scope of the Stock Option Plans, provided that the total number of shares resulting from their exercise does not surpass the limit indicated in item (f) above and the limit of 2% of Company’s capital stock per Series.

 

 

h.         Conditions for the Acquisition of Shares

 

The Stock Option Committee will determine, for each Series and in each case if necessary, the terms and conditions for the acquisition of the right to exercise granted options, by means of an express provision in the subscription agreement signed by the beneficiary.

 

In order to acquire shares of the Stock Option Plans, the beneficiaries shall remain bound to the Company for a specific period, pursuant to item (j) below, except for the cases of termination of employment described in item (n) below.

 

The options shall be fully or partially exercised up to the expiration date of the respective option. For further information on the options’ expiration dates currently in effect, please refer to item 13.6 below.

 

 

i.          Criteria for Setting the Acquisition or Exercise Price

 

For the options classified as “Silver”, the exercise price per preferred share shall correspond to the average of the closing price of the preferred shares issued by the Company and traded in the 20 sessions of the BM&FBOVESPA prior to the date the Stock Option Committee resolves on the granting of the option. After the average price is determined, a negative goodwill of 20% shall be applied.

 

For the options classified as “Gold”, the exercise price will be R$0.01 per preferred share.

 

 

j.          Criteria for Determining the Exercise Price

 

As general rule for the Stock Option Plan, which may be amended by the Committee on each series, the right to exercise the stock option shall mature after the 36th month and up to the 48th month following the execution of the respective subscription agreement, the beneficiary will have the right to acquire 100% of the shares for “Silver” options. The exercise of the “Gold” options will happen in the same period, but the percentage of said options subject to exercise will be determined by the Stock Option Committee in the 35th month following the date of execution of the respective subscription agreement.

 

The options granted in both Stock Option Plans shall be fully or partially exercised. It is worth mentioning that “Gold” options supplement “Silver” options, and, therefore, “Gold” options shall only be exercised together with “Silver” options.

 

 

61

 


 

 

k.         Settlement Means

 

The exercise price of the options granted under the Stock Option Plan shall be fully paid in local currency by the beneficiary, being that the exercise price shall be paid in cash and in one installment, 30 days following the date of subscription of the respective shares, except for the cases of termination of employment of the beneficiary described in item (n) below, in which case the exercise price shall be paid in cash upon subscription

 

 

l.          Restrictions to the Transfer of Shares

 

The Stock Option Committee shall set restrictions to the transfer or trading of the shares obtained through the exercise of the options

 

 

m.        Criteria and Events That, When Verified, Shall Result in the Subscription, Amendment or Termination of the Plan

 

The number of shares to be acquired in the Second Plan’s “Gold” Series, as explained in item (j) above, shall be limited by the Stock Option Committee.

 

The Stock Option Plan and the options granted shall be automatically extinguished if the Company is dissolved or liquidated.

 

Finally, the Stock Option Committee shall determine the suspension, amendment to or termination of the Stock Option Plan without the prior consent of the beneficiaries, provided that their rights and obligations are not harmed.

 

 

n.         Effects of the Executive’s Leaving the Company on his Rights Provided for in the Stock-Based Compensation Plan

 

 

In the case of involuntary termination of employment by any Executive Officer or employee beneficiary of the Second Plan up to the last working day of the 35th month following the date of execution of the respective subscription agreement, the right to exercise 100% of the “Silver” and “Gold” options will be granted. In this case, the limit determined by the Stock Option Committee shall not apply for the number of shares resulting from the exercise of the “Gold” options, described in item (j) above, and the total number of shares initially determined by the Committee shall be subject to exercise.

 

In the case of involuntary termination of employment by any Executive Officer or employee beneficiary of the Second Plan from the last working day of the 35th month to the last working day of the 48th month following the date of execution of the respective subscription agreement, the right to exercise 100% of the “Silver” and “Gold” options will also be granted. In this case, however, the limit determined by the Stock Option Committee will remain applicable for the number of shares resulting from the exercise of the “Gold” options, described in item (j) above.

 

62

 


 

 

In both cases, the beneficiaries shall communicate their intention to exercise the options granted to them within up to 15 days following the date of termination of employment.

 

In the case of voluntary termination of employment of any Executive Officer or employee beneficiary of the Plan and/or termination with cause, pursuant to the Brazilian labor law, the right to exercise the “Silver” and “Gold” options will not be granted.

 

In the case of death or permanent disability of any Executive Officer or employee beneficiary of the Plan, the rules for involuntary termination of employment described above shall apply, and the exercise shall be carried out by a person duly authorized by the appropriate authority.

13.9      Brief description of the information necessary for the understanding of the data disclosed in items “13.6” to “13.8”, and explanation of the pricing method used for the shares and

options

 

a.         Pricing Method

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton  options pricing model.

 

 

b.         data and premises used in the pricing model, including the average weighted price of the shares, exercise price, expected volatility, option term, expected dividends, and risk-free interest rate

 

The market price of each granted option is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton  options pricing model, considering the following premises for the options in effect in 2012:

 

 

On the grant date

Average weighted price of the shares (per share), according to the

average value of the last 15 trading sections on the grant date

Series A4: R$ 58.11

Series A5: R$ 68.36

c.         Method and Premisses Used to Incorporate the Expected Effects of Early Exercise

 

We do not take into account, for purposes of pricing the options, early exercises resulting from involuntary termination of employment, death or permanent disability of the beneficiary, and as a result of corporate events.

 

We adopt the premise that the options will be exercised from the moment they become exercisable. Therefore, the options term adopted in the calculations ranges from 1 to 5 years, depending on the series and the corresponding vesting periods of the options.

 

 

d.         How the Expected Volatility is Determined

 

In calculating the expected volatility, we used the standard deviation of the natural logarithms of the historic daily variations of the prices of the shares issued by the Company, according to the effective term of the options.

 

 

e.         Other Characteristics Incorporated in the Measurement of the Options’ Fair Value

 

Up to the end of the vesting period, the non-exercisable options are considered as call options in the calculations made using the Black-Scholes-Merton method. When they become exercisable, the options are considered as put options, that is, exercisable at any time up to the expiration date.

Management Proposal – Capitalization of the Goodwill Special Reserve Portion

 

 

Dear Shareholders: The Board of Officers of Companhia Brasileira de Distribuição, pursuant to the provisions in the “Goodwill Amortization Structure and Schedule Agreement” executed by the members of the Diniz family (per se and by its affiliates) and Casino, with the Company’s intervention, on June 22, 2005 and amended on September 28, 2006 (“Goodwill Agreement”), and after the analysis of the Management Report and the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, proposes the General Meeting the increase in the Company’s capital stock in the amount of R$ 38,024,597.19, by means of the capitalization of the goodwill special reserve portion, in the amount equivalent to the effective income tax amount no longer collected by the Company in calendar year 2012 due to the goodwill amortization paid by the Casino Group in the acquisition of its respective investment in the Company.

 

As provided for by the Goodwill Agreement, 20% of the total increase amount, that is, R$ 7,604,842.31, will be capitalized without the issue of new shares, benefiting all shareholders and 80% of the total increase amount, that is, R$ 30,419,754.88, will be capitalized in benefit of the Company’s controlling shareholder, Wilkes Participações S.A., joint-stock company duly incorporated and existing in accordance with the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, headquartered in the city of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil, at Av. Brigadeiro Luis Antônio, 3126, and registered under Corporate Taxpayer’s ID the National Registration of Legal Entities (CNPJ/MF) 04.745.350/0001-38 (“Wilkes”), pursuant to Article 7, caput of CVM Instruction no. 319/99, by means of the issue of new preferred shares. Such amount represents R$ 44.33 less than the amount of R$ 30,419,799.21, established by the Notice of the Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on April 27, 2012, which correspond to a portion of the increasing to be capitalized in favor of the Company’s Shareholders. Referred difference, on the amount of R$ 44.33, shall be add to the portion of the increasing of R$ 7,604,797.98, which shall be capitalized in favor of every single shareholder, accomplishing the amount of R$ 7,604,842.31.

 

The Company’s shareholders will have the preemptive right, pursuant to paragraph 2nd of Article 171 of Law 6,404/76. Should any shareholder decide to exercise the preemptive right, the amounts paid by the shareholder will be directly delivered to Wilkes. The preemptive right shall be exercised within thirty (30) consecutive days, as of the publication of a Notice to Shareholders informing on the start of such a term.

 

The issue price was determined based on the weighted average of the fifteen (15) trading sessions prior to the publication of the first Call Notice of the General Meeting which will discuss the proposed capital increase, in accordance with item III of paragraph 1 of Article 170 of Law 6,404/76 (as amended), corresponding therefore to R$ 101.41 per preferred share. Thus, 299,968 preferred Company shares will be issued, totaling R$ 30,419,754.88.

 

Thus, in view of the approval of the present Proposal by Shareholders, the Company’s capital stock will change of R$ 6.711.123.218,57 (six billion, seven hundred and eleven million, one hundred twenty three thousand, two hundred and eighteen Reais and fifty seven cents) to R$ 6.749.147.815,76 (six billion, seven hundred and forty nine million, one hundred, forty seven thousand, eight hundred and fifteen Reais and seventy six cents), divided into 263,751,303 shares with no par value, of which 99,679,851 are common shares and 164,071,452 are preferred shares.

79

 


 

 

 

Subsequently, the caput of Article 4th of the Company’s Bylaws will become effective with the following wording:

 

ARTICLE 4 - The Company’s Capital Stock is R$ 6.749.147.815,76 (six billion, seven hundred and forty nine million, one hundred, forty seven thousand, eight hundred and fifteen Reais and seventy six cents) entirely paid in and divided into 263,751,303 (two hundred sixty three million, seven hundred fifty one thousand, three hundred and three) shares with no par value, of which 99,679,851 (ninety-nine million, six hundred and seventy-nine thousand, eight hundred and fifty-one) are common shares and 164.071.452 (one hundred sixty four million, seventy one thousand, four hundred and fifty two) are preferred shares” 

 

In accordance with article 11, item I, of ICVM 481/2009, follows herein the chapeau of article 4th of the Company’s Bylaws with the proposed alterations:

 

 “ARTICLE 4 - The Company’s Capital Stock is R$ 6,711,123,218.57 (six billion, seven hundred and eleven million, one hundred twenty three thousand, two hundred and eighteen Reais and fifty seven cents) R$ 6,749,147,815.76 (six billion, seven hundred and forty nine million, one hundred, forty seven thousand, eight hundred and fifteen Reais and seventy six cents) entirely paid in and divided into 263,451,335 (two hundred sixty-three million, four hundred and fifty-one thousand, three hundred and thirty-five)263,751,303 (two hundred sixty-three million, seven hundred fifty-one thousand, three hundred and three) shares with no par value, of which 99,679,851 (ninety-nine million, six hundred and seventy-nine thousand, eight hundred and fifty-one) are common shares and 163,771,484 (one hundred sixty-three million, seven hundred and seventy-one thousand, four hundred and eighty-four)99,679,851 (ninety-nine million, six hundred and seventy-nine thousand, eight hundred and fifty-one) are preferred shares” 

 

In accordance with article 11, item II of ICMV 481/2009, the alteration hereafter proposed, legally, does not imply any loss for Company’s shareholders, since the every single shareholder of the company shall be able to exercise its right of preference, under the terms of the Notice to Shareholders, which shall be published after the Annual and Special Shareholders’ Meeting, once this proposal is approved.

 

The Members of the Company’s Management attending the Meeting will be entitled to render all the information deemed as convenient and necessary by the Shareholders for their decision making process. This is the proposal we have to present, to which we expect the due approval.

 

São Paulo, March 15th, 2013.
