REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors and Management of
Ultrapar Participações S.A.
São Paulo - SP
 
Introduction
 
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Ultrapar Participações S.A. (the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, included in the Interim Financial Information Form (ITR), for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, which comprises the balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.
 
The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Information and the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and the international standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, as well as for the presentation of such information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
 
Scope of review
 
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards on auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
 
Conclusion on individual interim financial information
 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual interim financial information included in the ITR referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by CVM.

Conclusion on consolidated interim financial information
 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial information included in the ITR referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by CVM.
 
Other matters
 
Statements of value added
 
We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by the standards issued by the CVM applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR) and considered as supplemental information for International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRSs, which do not require the presentation of these statements. These statements were subject to the same review procedures described above, and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they were not prepared, in all material respects, consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
 
The accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information has been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.

1.  
Operations
 
Ultrapar Participações S.A. (“Ultrapar” or “Company”), is a publicly-traded company headquartered at the Brigadeiro Luis Antônio Avenue, 1343 in the city of Săo Paulo – SP, Brazil.

The Company engages in the investment of its own capital in services, commercial and industrial activities, by the subscription or acquisition of shares of other companies. Through its subsidiaries, it operates in the segments of liquefied petroleum gas - LPG distribution (“Ultragaz”), fuel distribution and related businesses (“Ipiranga”), production and marketing of chemicals (“Oxiteno”), and storage services for liquid bulk (“Ultracargo”), and, as from January 31, 2014, trading of pharmaceutical, hygiene, beauty and skincare products, through Imifarma Produtos Farmacêuticos e Cosméticos S.A. (“Extrafarma”) – see Note 3.a).


2.
Summary of significant accounting policies
 
The Company’s consolidated interim financial information were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), in accordance with  CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Reporting issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”) and presented in accordance with standards established by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”).

The Company’s individual interim financial information were prepared in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and presented in accordance with standards established by the CVM. The investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured through the equity method of accounting, which, for purposes of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), would be measured at cost or fair value.

The presentation currency of the Company’s individual and consolidated interim financial information is the Brazilian Real (“R$”), which is the Company’s functional currency.

The accounting policies described below were applied by the Company and its subsidiaries in a consistent manner for all periods presented in these individual and consolidated interim financial information.

a.  
Recognition of income
 
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of sales returns, discounts and other deductions, if applicable.

Revenue and cost of sales are recognized when all risks and benefits associated with the products are transferred to the purchaser. Revenue from services provided and their costs are recognized when the services are provided. Costs of products and services sold provided include goods (mainly fuels/lubricants, LPG and pharmaceutical products), raw materials (chemicals and petrochemicals) and production, distribution, storage and filling costs.

b.  
Cash and cash equivalents
 
Include cash, banks deposits and short-term highly-liquid investments that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. See Note 4 for further details on cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its subsidiaries.

c.  
Financial instruments
 
In accordance with IAS 32, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 (CPC 38, 39 and 40 (R1)), the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries are classified in accordance with the following categories:

Measured at fair value through profit or loss: financial assets and liabilities held for trading, that is, acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term, and derivatives. The balances are stated at fair value. The interest earned, the exchange variation and changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Held to maturity: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments, and fixed maturities for which the entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss, and balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interest earned, using the effective interest rate method.
 
Available for sale: non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale or that are not classified into other categories at initial recognition. The balances are stated at fair value and the interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. Differences between fair value and acquisition cost plus the interest earned are recognized in cumulative other comprehensive income in the shareholders’ equity. Accumulated gains and losses recognized in the shareholders’ equity are reclassified to profit or loss in case of prepayment.
 
Loans and receivables: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments or receipts, not quoted in an active market, except: (i) those which the entity intends to sell immediately or in the near term and which the entity classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) those classified as available for sale; or (iii) those for which the Company may not recover substantially all of its initial investment for reasons other than credit deterioration. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. The balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interests, using the effective interest rate method. Loans and receivables include cash and banks, trade receivables, dividends receivable and other trade receivables.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, applying the concepts described below:

Fair value hedge: derivative financial instrument used to hedge exposure to changes in the fair value of an item, attributable to a particular risk, which can affect the entity’s profit or loss.
 
Hedge accounting - fair value hedge: in the initial designation of the fair value hedge, the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item is documented, including the objectives of risk management, the strategy in conducting the transaction and the methods to be used to evaluate its effectiveness. Once the fair value hedge has been qualified as effective, the hedge item is also measured at fair value. Gains and losses from hedge instruments and hedge items are recognized in profit or loss. The hedge accounting must be discontinued when the hedge becomes ineffective.
 
Hedge accounting - hedge of net investments in foreign operation: derivative financial instrument used to hedge exposure on net investments in foreign subsidiaries due to the fact that the local functional currency is different from the functional currency of the Company. The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be effective referring to the exchange rate effect is recognized directly in equity in accumulated other comprehensive income as cumulative translation adjustments, while the ineffective portion and the operating costs are recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized directly in accumulated other comprehensive income shall be recognized in income upon disposal of the foreign operation.

For further detail on financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, see Notes 4, 14, and 22.

d.  
Trade receivables
 
Trade receivables are recognized at the amount invoiced, adjusted to present value if applicable, including all direct taxes attributable to the Company and its subsidiaries. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on estimated losses and is set at an amount deemed by management to be sufficient to cover any probable loss on realization of trade receivables (see Note 22 - Customer credit risk).


e.  
Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of acquisition cost or net realizable value. The cost value of inventory is measured using the weighted average cost and includes the costs of acquisition and processing directly related to the units produced based on the normal capacity of production. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the average selling prices at the end of the reporting period, net of applicable direct selling expenses. Subsequent events related to the fluctuation of prices and costs are also considered, if relevant. If net realizable values are below inventory costs, a provision corresponding to this difference is recognized. Provisions are also made for obsolescence of products, materials or supplies that (i) do not meet the Company and its subsidiaries’ specifications, (ii) have exceeded their expiration date or (iii) are considered slow-moving inventory. This classification is made by management with the support of its industrial team.

 
f.  
Investments
 
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual interim financial information of the parent company.

Investments in associates in which management has a significant influence or in which it holds 20% or more of the voting stock, or that are under joint control are also accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual and consolidated interim financial information (see Note 11).

Other investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for losses, unless the loss is considered temporary.


g.  
Property, plant and equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment is recognized at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on property, plant and equipment under construction, as well as maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages and estimated costs to remove, to decommission or to restore assets (see Note 18).

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, for the periods mentioned in Note 12, taking into account the useful life of the assets, which are reviewed annually.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease contract term and useful life of the property.

h.  
Leases

•   Finance leases

Certain lease contracts transfer substantially all the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of an asset to the Company and its subsidiaries. These contracts are characterized as finance leases, and assets thereunder are capitalized at lease commencement at their fair value or, if lower, present value of the minimum lease payments under the contracts. The items recognized as assets are depreciated and amortized using the straight-line method based on the useful lives applicable to each group of assets as mentioned in Notes 12 and 13. Financial charges under the finance lease contracts are allocated to profit or loss over the lease contract term, based on the amortized cost and the effective interest rate method of the related lease obligation (see Note 14.j).


•   Operating leases

There are lease transactions where the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of the asset are not transferred and where there is no purchase option or the purchase option at the end of the contract is equivalent to the market value of the leased asset. Payments made under an operating lease contract are recognized as cost or expenses in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract (see Note 23.g).
 
 
i.  
Intangible assets
 
Intangible assets include assets acquired by the Company and its subsidiaries from third parties, according to the criteria below (see Note 13):

Goodwill is carried net of accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2008, when it ceased to be amortized. Goodwill generated since January 1, 2009 is shown as intangible asset corresponding to the positive difference between the amount paid or payable to the seller and the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities assumed of the acquired entity, and is tested annually for impairment. Goodwill is allocated to the respective cash generating units (“CGU”) for impairment testing purposes.
 
Bonus disbursements as provided in Ipiranga’s agreements with reseller service stations and major consumers are recognized as distribution rights when paid and amortized using the straight-line method according to the term of the agreement.
 
Other intangible assets acquired from third parties, such as software, technology and commercial property rights, are measured at the total acquisition cost and amortized using straight-line method, for the periods mentioned in Note 13, taking into account their useful life, which is reviewed annually.

The Company and its subsidiaries have not recognized intangible assets that were created internally. The Company and its subsidiaries have not recognized intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, except for goodwill and the “am/pm” brand.

j.  
Other assets
 
Other assets are stated at the lower of cost and realizable value, including, if applicable, interest earned, monetary changes and changes in exchange rates incurred or less a provision for loss and, if applicable, adjustment to present value (see Note 2.u).


k.  
Financial liabilities
 
The Company and its subsidiaries’ financial liabilities include trade payables and other payables, loans, debentures and hedging instruments. Financial liabilities are classified as “financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” or “financial liabilities at amortized cost”. The financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss refer to derivative financial instruments and financial liabilities designated as hedged items in a fair value hedge relationship upon initial recognition (see Note 2.c – fair value hedge). The financial liabilities at amortized cost are stated at the initial transaction amount plus related charges and transaction costs, net of amortization. The charges are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate method (see Note 14.k).

Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the activities necessary for contracting loans or for issuing bonds, as well as premiums and discounts upon issuance of debentures and other debt or equity instruments, are allocated to the instrument and amortized to profit or loss over its term, using the effective interest rate method.

 
l.  
Income and social contribution taxes on income
 
Current and deferred income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution on net income tax (“CSLL”) are calculated based on their current rates, considering the value of tax incentives. Taxes are recognized based on the rates of IRPJ and CSLL provided for by the laws enacted on the last day of the reporting period. The current rates in Brazil are 25% for income tax and 9% for social contribution on net income tax. For further details about recognition and realization of IRPJ and CSLL, see Note 9.


m.  
Provision for assets retirement obligation – fuel tanks
 
The Company and its subsidiaries have the legal obligation to remove Ipiranga’s underground fuel tanks located at Ipiranga-branded service stations after a certain period. The estimated cost of the obligation to remove these fuel tanks is recognized as a liability when tanks are installed. The estimated cost is recognized in property, plant and equipment and depreciated over the respective useful life of the tanks. The amounts recognized as a liability are monetarily restated until the respective tank is removed (see Note 18). An increase in the estimated cost of the obligation to remove the tanks could result in negative impact in future results. The estimated removal cost is reviewed and updated annually or when there is significant change in its amount.


n.  
Provisions for tax, civil and labor risks
 
A provision for tax, civil and labor risks is recognized for quantifiable risks, when the chance of loss is more-likely-than-not in the opinion of management and internal and external legal counsel, and the amounts are recognized based on evaluation of the outcomes of the legal proceedings (see Note 23 items a,b,c,d).


o.  
Post-employment benefits
 
Post-employment benefits granted and to be granted to employees, retirees, and pensioners are based on an actuarial calculation prepared by an independent actuary, using the projected unit credit method (see Note 24.b). The actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the shareholder’s equity. Past service cost is recognized through the income statement.

p.  
Other liabilities
 
Other liabilities are stated at known or measurable amounts plus, if applicable, related charges, monetary restatement and changes in exchange rates incurred. When applicable, other liabilities are recognized at present value based on interest rates that reflect the term, currency and risk of each transaction.


q.  
Foreign currency transactions
 
Foreign currency transactions carried out by the Company or its subsidiaries are remeasured into their functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of each transaction. Outstanding monetary assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The effect of the difference between those exchange rates is recognized in profit or loss until the conclusion of each transaction.

 
r.  
Basis for translation of interim financial information of foreign subsidiaries
 
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Brazilian Real), which have administrative autonomy, are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate of each period and shareholders’ equity are translated at the historic exchange rate of each transaction affecting shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments and will be recognized in profit or loss if these investments are disposed of. The recognized balance in cumulative other comprehensive income and presented in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments as of March 31, 2014 was a gain of R$ 44,296 (gain of R$ 38,076 as of December 31, 2013).

The foreign subsidiaries with functional currency different from the Company and which have administrative autonomy, are listed below:

According to IAS 29, Venezuela is classified as a hyperinflationary economy. As a result, the financial statements of Oxiteno Andina, C.A. (“Oxiteno Andina”) were adjusted by the Venezuelan Consumer Price Index.

The subsidiary Oxiteno Uruguay S.A. (“Oxiteno Uruguay”) determined its functional currency as the U.S. dollar, as its sales and purchases of goods, and financing activities are performed substantially in this currency.

Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have administrative autonomy, are considered as an extension of the activities of their parent company and are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as financial income or loss. The loss recognized in income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 amounted to R$ 1,872 (R$ 637 loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013).

s.  
Use of estimates, assumptions and judgments
 
The preparation of the interim financial information requires the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments for the accounting of certain assets, liabilities and income. Therefore, Company and subsidiaries’ management use the best information available at the time of preparation of the interim financial information, as well as the experience of past and current events, also considering assumptions regarding future events. The interim financial information therefore include estimates, assumptions and judgments related mainly to determining the fair value of financial instruments (Notes 4, 14 and 22), the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts (Notes 5 and 22), the determination of provisions for losses of inventories (Note 6), the determination of deferred income taxes amounts (Note 9), the useful life of property, plant and equipment (Note 12), the useful life of intangible assets and the determination of the recoverable amount of goodwill (Note 13), provisions for assets retirement obligations (Note 18), tax, civil and labor provisions (Note 23 items a,b,c,d) and estimates for the preparation of actuarial reports (Note 24.b). The actual result of the transactions and information may differ from their estimates.


t.  
Impairment of assets
 
The Company and its subsidiaries review, at least annually, the existence of indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication, the Company and its subsidiaries estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. Assets that cannot be evaluated individually are grouped in the smallest group of assets that generate cash flow from continuous use and that are largely independent of cash flows of other assets (CGU). The recoverable amount of assets or CGUs corresponds to the greater of their fair value net of applicable direct selling costs and their value in use.

The fair value less costs of disposal is determined by the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, net of costs of removing the asset, and direct incremental costs to bring an asset into condition for its sale, legal costs and taxes.

To assess the value in use, the Company and its subsidiaries consider the projections of future cash flows, trends and outlooks, as well as the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Such cash flows are discounted to their present values ​​using the discount rate before tax that reflects market conditions for the period of impairment testing and the specific risks of the asset or CGU being evaluated. In cases where the expected discounted future cash flows are less than their carrying amount, the impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of these assets. Losses for impairment of assets are recognized in profit or loss. In case goodwill has been allocated to a CGU, the recognized losses are first allocated to reduce the corresponding goodwill. If the goodwill is not enough to absorb such losses, the surplus is allocated to the assets on a pro-rata basis. An impairment of goodwill cannot be reversed. For other assets, impairment losses may be reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if the impairment had not been recognized.

No impairment was recognized in the periods presented (see Note 13.i).

Some of the Company’s subsidiaries recognized a present value adjustment to Tax on Goods and Services (“ICMS”, the Brazilian VAT) credit balances related to property, plant and equipment (CIAP). Because recovery of these credits occurs over a 48 months period, the present value adjustment reflects, in the interim financial information, the time value of the ICMS credits to be recovered. The balance of these adjustment to present value totalized R$ 459 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 354 as of December 31, 2013).

The Company and its subsidiaries reviewed all items classified as non-current and, when relevant, current assets and liabilities and did not identify the need to recognize other present value adjustments.

As required by Brazilian Corporate Law, the Company and its subsidiaries prepare the individual and consolidated statements of value added (“DVA”) according to CPC 09 – Statement of Value Added, as an integral part of the interim financial information as applicable to publicly-traded companies, and as supplemental information for IFRS, that do not require the presentation of DVA.


w.

2015(*)

3.
Principles of consolidation and investments in subsidiaries

The consolidated interim financial information were prepared following the basic principles of consolidation established by IFRS 10 (CPC 36 (R3)). Investments of one company in another, balances of asset and liability accounts and revenues and expenses were eliminated, as well as the effects of transactions conducted between the companies. Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are presented within consolidated shareholders’ equity and net income.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the parent company obtains direct or indirect control over of a company and ceases when the parent company loses control of a company. Income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired are included in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income from the date the parent company gains the control. Income and expenses of a subsidiary, in which the parent company loses control, are included in the consolidated income statement and other comprehensive income until the date the parent company loses control.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the interim financial information of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Company’s accounting policies.

a) Business combination – acquisition of Extrafarma
 
On January 31, 2014 the merger of all shares issued by Extrafarma into Ultrapar was approved at the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. After the merger of shares, Extrafarma became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultrapar and the shareholders of Extrafarma became long-term shareholders of Ultrapar. The association with Extrafarma marks Ultrapar’s entry into Brazil's retail pharmacy sector, making it the third distribution and specialty retail business of the Company.

As a result, 12,021,100 new ordinary, nominative, book-entry shares with no par value of the Company were issued on January 31, 2014, increasing capital share by R$ 141,913, resulting in total capital share of R$ 3,838,686 represented by 556,405,096 shares and increasing capital reserves by R$ 498,812, totaling an increase in equity in the amount of R$ 640,725. This transaction did not affect the Company’ cash flow.

In addition, the Company issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, may lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. The number of shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification is adjusted according to the changes in the amounts of provision for tax, civil and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period previous to January 31, 2014. The subscription warrants – working capital and subscription warrants – indemnification are valued based on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3) on the reporting date. On March 31, 2014 the subscription warrants totaled:

Total

The temporary purchase price in the amount of R$ 791,427, subject to the customary final adjustments of working capital, will be allocated among the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed, measured at fair value. The Company is measuring the open balance, fair value of assets and liabilities and, consequently, the goodwill. The purchase price allocation is being determined and its conclusion is estimated for the second semester of 2014. During the process of identification of assets and liabilities, intangible assets which are not recognized in the acquired entity’s books will also be taken into account. The temporary goodwill is R$ 836,182.

c.
Deferred Stock Plan
 
On April 27, 2001, the General Shareholders’ Meeting approved a benefit plan to members of management and employees in executive positions in the Company and its subsidiaries. On November 26, 2003, the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting approved certain amendments to the original plan of 2001 (the “Deferred Stock Plan”). In the Deferred Stock Plan, certain members of management of the Company and its subsidiaries have the voting and economic rights of shares and the ownership of these shares is retained by the subsidiaries of the Company. The Deferred Stock Plan provides for the transfer of the ownership of the shares to those eligible members of management after five to ten years from the initial concession of the rights subject to uninterrupted employment of the participant during the period. The total number of shares to be used for the Deferred Stock Plan is subject to the availability in treasury of such shares. It is incumbent on Ultrapar’s executive officers to select the members of management eligible for the plan and propose the number of shares in each case for approval by the Board of Directors. The fair value of the awards were determined on the grant date based on the market value of the shares on the BM&FBOVESPA S.A. – Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (“BM&FBOVESPA”), the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange and the amounts are amortized between five and ten years from the initial concession.

Nondeductible expenses, consist of certain expenses that cannot be deducted for tax purposes under applicable tax legislation, such as expenses with fines, donations, gifts, losses of assets and certain provisions;

 
(ii)
Nontaxable revenues, consist of certain gains and income that are not taxable under applicable tax legislation, such as the reimbursement of taxes and the reversal of certain provisions;

 
(iii)
Brazilian tax law allows for an alternative method of taxation for companies that generated gross revenues of up to R$ 78 million in their previous fiscal year. Certain subsidiaries of the Company adopted this alternative form of taxation, whereby income and social contribution taxes are calculated on a basis equal to 32% of operating revenues, as opposed to being calculated based on the effective taxable income of these subsidiaries. The adjustment to estimated income represents the difference between the taxation under this alternative method and the income and social contribution taxes that would have been paid based on the effective statutory rate applied to the taxable income of these subsidiaries;

 
(iv)
Interest on equity is an option foreseen in Brazilian corporate law to distribute profits to shareholders, calculated based on the long-term interest rate (“TJLP”), which does not affect the income statement, but is deductible for purposes of IRPJ and CSLL.

(1) In 2014 the subsidiary will request the extension of the recognition of tax incentive for another 10 years, due to the production increase in the Caucaia base and modernization in the Mataripe base.

(2) On December 26, 2013, the petition requesting the extension of the tax incentive for another 10 years was granted by SUDENE, due the modernization in the Aratu terminal. On January 16, 2014 the report was filed with the Federal Revenue Service, which has a period of 120 days for approval before Tequimar can use the incentive retrospectively.


d.  
Income and social contribution taxes carryforwards
 
As of March 31, 2014, the Company and certain subsidiaries have loss carryforwards (income tax) amounting to R$ 142,109 (R$ 142,952 as of December 31, 2013) and negative basis of CSLL of R$ 110,958 (R$ 109,652 as of December 31, 2013), whose compensations are limited to 30% of taxable income, which do not expire. Based on these values the Company and its subsidiaries recognized deferred income and social contribution tax assets in the amount of R$ 45,514 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 45,607 as of December 31, 2013).

 
e.  
Provisional Measure No. 627
 
On November 11, 2013 Provisional Measure No. 627 (MP 627/13) was issued, which, among other matters: (i) revokes the Transition Tax Regime (RTT) and regulates the incidence of taxes on the adjustments arising from the convergence of accounting practices adopted in Brazil and international financial reporting standards (IFRS) and (ii) provides for the taxation of residents in Brazil related to profits of overseas subsidiaries and associates.

The Company has assessed the potential effects of MP 627/13 and awaits its conversion into law for completion of the assessment of impacts, however the expected effects are not material based on a preliminary analysis.

On December 31, 2013 the Company tested the balances of goodwill shown in the table above for impairment. The determination of value in use involves assumptions, judgments and estimates of cash flows, such as growth rates of revenues, costs and expenses, estimates of investments and working capital and discount rates. The assumptions about growth projections and future cash flows are based on the Company's business plan, as well as comparable market data, and represent management’s best estimate of the economic conditions that will exist over the economic life of the various CGUs, to which goodwill is related.
 
The evaluation of the value in use is calculated for a period of five years, after which we calculate the perpetuity, considering the possibility of carrying the business on indefinitely.

On December 31, 2013 the discount and real growth rates used to extrapolate the projections ranged from 11.3% to 24.9% and 0% to 5.0% p.a., respectively, depending on the CGU analyzed.

The Company’s goodwill impairment tests did not result in the recognition of losses for the year ended December 31, 2013.

ii) Software includes user licenses and costs for the implementation of the various systems used by the Company and its subsidiaries, such as: integrated management and control, financial management, foreign trade, industrial automation, operational and storage management, accounting information and other systems.

iii) The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste and Oleoquímica Indústria e Comércio de Produtos Químicos Ltda. (“Oleoquímica”) recognize as technology certain rights of use held by them. Such licenses include the production of ethylene oxide, ethylene glycols, ethanolamines, glycol ethers, ethoxylates, solvents, fatty acids from vegetable oils, fatty alcohols, and specialty chemicals, which are products that are supplied to various industries.

iv) Commercial property rights include those described below:

On July 11, 2002, subsidiary Tequimar executed an agreement with CODEBA – Companhia das Docas do Estado da Bahia, which allows it to explore the area in which the Aratu Terminal is located for 20 years, renewable for a similar period. The price paid by Tequimar was R$ 12,000, which is being amortized over the period from August 2002 to July 2042.
 
 
In addition, subsidiary Tequimar has a lease contract for an area adjacent to the Port of Santos for 20 years from December 2002, renewable for a similar period, which allows the construction, operation, and use of a terminal for liquid bulk unloading, tank storage, handling, and distribution. The price paid by Tequimar was R$ 4,334, which is being amortized over the period from August 2005 to December 2022.
 
Subsidiary Extrafarma pays key money to obtain certain commercial establishments to open drugstores which is stated at the cost of acquisition, amortized using the straight line method, considering the lease contract terms. In the case of closedown of stores the residual amount is recorded in income.

v) Distribution rights refer mainly to bonus disbursements as provided in Ipiranga’s agreements with resellers and large customers. Bonus disbursements are recognized when paid and recognized as an expense in the income statement over the term of the agreement (typically 5 years) which is reviewed as per the changes occurred in the agreements.
 
vi) Others are represented substantially by the acquisition cost of the ‘am/pm’ brand in Brazil.

IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 104.1% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.
 
2) The subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp. (“Oxiteno Overseas”) has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 60 million with interest of LIBOR + 1.0% p.a., paid semiannually. The Company, through its subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz, contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 86.9% of CDI with maturity in June 2014 and 94,0% of CDI for the remaining term (see Note 22). The foreign loan is guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. In January 2014, the subsidiary renegotiated the loan changing the maturity from June 2014 to January 2017.
 
As a result of these foreign loans, some obligations mentioned in Note 14.b) must also be maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries. Additionally, during these contracts, the Company shall maintain the following financial ratios, calculated based on its audited consolidated financial statement:
 
 
Maintenance of a financial ratio, determined by the ratio between consolidated net debt and consolidated Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), at less than or equal to 3.5.

 
Maintenance of a financial ratio, determined by the ratio between consolidated EBITDA and consolidated net financial expenses, higher than or equal to 1.5.

The financings are guaranteed by collateral in the amount of R$ 172,867 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 40,675 as of December 31, 2013) and by guarantees and promissory notes in the amount of R$ 3,310,919 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 2,528,511 as of December 31, 2013).

In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries offer collateral in the form of letters of credit for commercial and legal proceedings in the amount of R$ 159,353 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 155,221 as of December 31, 2013).

Some subsidiaries issued collateral to financial institutions in connection with the amounts owed by some of their customers to such institutions (vendor financing). If a subsidiary is required to make any payment under these collaterals, this subsidiary may recover the amount paid directly from its customers through commercial collection. The maximum amount of future payments related to these collaterals is R$ 11,201 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 14,315 as of December 31, 2013), with maturities of less than 214 days. As of March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have losses in connection with these collaterals. The fair value of collaterals recognized in current liabilities as other payables is R$ 274 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 350 as of December 31, 2013), which is recognized as profit or loss as customers settle their obligations with the financial institutions.

Some financing agreements of the Company and its subsidiaries have cross default clauses that require them to pay the debt assumed in case of default of other debts equal to or greater than US$ 15 million. As of March 31, 2014, there was no event of default of the debts of the Company and its subsidiaries.

These suppliers control almost all the markets for these products in Brazil. The Company and its subsidiaries depend on the ability of those suppliers to deliver products in a timely manner and at acceptable prices and terms. The loss of any major supplier or a significant reduction in product availability from these suppliers could have a significant adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that their relationship with suppliers is satisfactory.

Ipiranga has a loyalty program called Km de Vantagens under which registered customers are rewarded with points when they buy products at Ipiranga service stations or at its partners. The customers may exchange these points, during the period of one year, for discounts on products and services offered by Ipiranga and its partners. Points received by Ipiranga’s customers that may be used with the partner Multiplus Fidelidade and for discounts of fuel in Ipiranga’s website (www.postoipiranganaweb.com.br) are considered part of the sales revenue.

The customers may exchange these points, during the period of one year, for prizes in the drugstore chain or through the website www.clubextra.com.br.

Deferred revenue is based on the fair value of the points granted, considering the value of the prizes and the expected redemption of points. Deferred revenue is recognized in profit or loss when the points are redeemed, on which occasion the costs incurred are also recognized. Deferred revenue of unredeemed points is also recognized in profit or loss when the points expire.

 
Franchising fee

The franchising upfront fee related to the ‘am/pm’ convenience store chain received by Ipiranga is deferred and recognized in profit or loss on an accrual basis, based on the substance of the agreements with the franchisees.

Risks and financial instruments (Consolidated)

Risk management and financial instruments - Governance

The main risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed reflect strategic/operational and economic/financial aspects. Operational/strategic risks (including, but not limited to, demand behavior, competition, technological innovation, and material changes in the industry structure) are addressed by the Company’s management model. Economic/financial risks primarily reflect default of customers, behavior of macroeconomic variables, such as exchange and interest rates, as well as the characteristics of the financial instruments used by the Company and its subsidiaries and their counterparties. These risks are managed through control policies, specific strategies, and the establishment of limits.

The Company has a conservative policy for the management of resources, financial instruments and risks approved by its Board of Directors (“Policy”). In accordance with the Policy, the main objectives of financial management are to preserve the value and liquidity of financial assets and ensure financial resources for the development of the business, including expansions. The main financial risks considered in the Policy are risks associated with currencies, interest rates, credit and selection of financial instruments. Governance of the management of financial risks and financial instruments follows the segregation of duties below:

Implementation of the management of financial assets, instruments and risks is the responsibility of the financial area, through its treasury department, with the assistance of the tax and accounting departments.
Supervision and monitoring of compliance with the principles, guidelines and standards of the Policy is the responsibility of the Risk and Investment Committee composed of members of the Company’s Executive Board (“Committee”). The Committee holds regular meetings and is in charge, among other responsibilities, of discussing and monitoring the financial strategies, existing exposures, and significant transactions involving investment, fund raising, or risk mitigation. The Committee monitors the risk standards established by the Policy through a monitoring map on a monthly basis.
Changes in the Policy or revisions of its standards are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of Ultrapar.
Continuous improvement of the Policy is the joint responsibility of the Board of Directors, the Committee, and the financial area.
•  
The internal audit department audits the compliance with the requirements of the Policy.

Currency risk

Most transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are located in Brazil and, therefore, the reference currency for risk management is the Brazilian Real. Currency risk management is guided by neutrality of currency exposures and considers the transactional, accounting, and operational risks of the Company and its subsidiaries and their exposure to changes in exchange rates. The Company considers as its main currency exposures the assets and liabilities in foreign currency and the short-term flow of net sales in foreign currency of Oxiteno.

The Company and its subsidiaries use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Brazilian Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency and net investments in foreign operations, in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on its results and cash flows in Brazilian Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are stated below, translated into Brazilian Reais as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Interest rate risk

The Company and its subsidiaries adopt conservative policies for borrowing and investing financial resources and for capital cost minimization. The financial investments of the Company and its subsidiaries are primarily held in transactions linked to the CDI, as set forth in Note 4. Borrowings primarily relate to financing from Banco do Brasil, BNDES and other development agencies, debentures and borrowings in foreign currency, as shown in Note 14.

The Company does not actively manage risks associated with changes in the level of interest rates and attempts to maintain its financial interest assets and liabilities at floating rates. As of March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate derivative financial instruments linked to domestic loans, swapping the fixed interest rate of certain debts to floating interest rate (CDI).

Credit risks

The financial instruments that would expose the Company and its subsidiaries to credit risks of the counterparty are basically represented by cash and bank deposits, financial investments, hedging instruments and trade receivables.

Credit risk of financial institutions - Such risk results from the inability of financial institutions to comply with their financial obligations to the Company and its subsidiaries due to insolvency. The Company and its subsidiaries regularly conduct a credit review of the institutions with which they hold cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments through various methodologies that assess liquidity, solvency, leverage, portfolio quality, etc. Cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, and hedging instruments are held only with institutions with a solid credit history, chosen for safety and soundness. The volumes of cash and cash equivalents, financial investments and hedging instruments are subject to maximum limits by institution and, therefore, require diversification of counterparty.

Government credit risk - The Company's policy allows investments in government securities from countries classified as investment grade AAA or Aaa by specialized credit rating agencies and in Brazilian government bonds. The volume of such financial investments is subject to maximum limits by each country and, therefore, requires diversification of counterparties.

Customer credit risk - Such risks are managed by each business unit through specific criteria for acceptance of customers and credit rating and are additionally mitigated by diversification of sales. No single customer or group accounts for more than 10% of total revenue.

The Company maintained the following allowances for doubtful accounts on trade receivables:

Liquidity risk
 
The Company and its subsidiaries’ main sources of liquidity derive from (i) cash, cash equivalents and financial investments, (ii) cash generated from operations and (iii) financings. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that these sources are sufficient to satisfy their current funding requirements, which include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, amortization of debt and payment of dividends.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries periodically examine opportunities for acquisitions and investments. They consider different types of investments, either directly or through joint ventures, or associated companies, and finance such investments using cash generated from operations, debt financing, through capital increases or through a combination of these methods.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries believe to have enough working capital to satisfy their current needs. The gross indebtedness due over the next twelve months totals R$ 1,962.0 million, including estimated interests on loans. Furthermore, the investment plan for 2014 totals R$ 1,484.0 million. On March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had R$ 3,184.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term financial investments (for quantitative information, see Notes 4 and 14).
 
The table below presents a summary of financial liabilities as of March 31, 2014 to be settled by the Company and its subsidiaries, by maturity. The amounts disclosed in this table are the contractual undiscounted cash outflows, and, therefore, these amounts ​​can be different from the amounts disclosed on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2014.

(1) To calculate the estimated interest on loans some macroeconomic assumptions were used, including, on average for the period: (i) CDI of 12.3% p.a., (ii) exchange rate of the Real against the U.S. dollar of R$ 2.35 in 2014, R$ 2.56 in 2015, R$ 2.83 in 2016, R$ 3.09 in 2017 and R$ 3.35 in 2018 (iii) TJLP of 5.0% p.a. and (iv) IGP-M of 7.0% in 2014, 6.8% in 2015, 6.3% in 2016, 6.3% in 2017 and 6.3% in 2018 (source: BM&FBOVESPA, Bulletin Focus and financial institutions).
 
(2) Includes estimated interest payments on short-term and long-term loans until the payment.
 
(3) The currency and interest rate hedging instruments were estimated based on projected U.S dollar futures contracts and the futures curve of DI x Pre contract quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of March 31, 2014, and on the futures curve of LIBOR (ICE - IntercontinentalExchange) on March 31, 2014. In the table above, only the hedging instruments with negative result at the time of settlement were considered.

Capital management
 
The Company manages its capital structure based on indicators and benchmarks. The key performance indicators related to the capital structure management are the weighted average cost of capital, and the net debt / EBITDA, interest coverage and indebtedness / equity ratios. Net debt is composed of cash, cash equivalents and financial investments (see Note 4) and loans, including debentures (see Note 14). The Company can change its capital structure depending on the economic and financial conditions, in order to optimize its financial leverage and capital management. The Company seeks to improve its return on capital employed by implementing an efficient working capital management and a selective investment program.
 
Selection and use of financial instruments

In selecting financial investments and hedging instruments, an analysis is conducted to estimate rates of return, risks involved, liquidity, calculation methodology for the carrying value and fair value, and documentation applicable to the financial instruments. The financial instruments used to manage the financial resources of the Company and its subsidiaries are intended to preserve value and liquidity.

The Policy contemplates the use of derivative financial instruments only to cover identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). The risks identified in the Policy are described in the above sections, and are subject to risk management. In accordance with the Policy, the Company and its subsidiaries can use forward contracts, swaps, options, and futures contracts to manage identified risks. Leveraged derivative instruments are not permitted. Because the use of derivative financial instruments is limited to the coverage of identified risks, the Company and its subsidiaries use the term “hedging instruments” to refer to derivative financial instruments.

As mentioned in the section “Risk management and financial instruments – Governance”, the Committee monitors compliance with the risk standards established by the Policy through a risk monitoring map, including the use of hedging instruments, on a monthly basis. In addition, the internal audit department verifies the compliance with the requirements of the Policy.

Hedging instruments existing as of March 31, 2014 are described below, according to their category, risk, and hedging strategy:

a - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of liabilities in foreign currency - The purpose of these contracts is (i) to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates of debts or firm commitments in U.S. dollars by converting them into debts or firm commitments in Brazilian Reais linked to CDI and (ii) change a financial investment linked to the CDI and given as guarantee to loan in U.S. dollar, into a financial investment linked to U.S. dollar. As of March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 244.2 million in notional amount with liability position, on average of 101.1% of CDI, of which US$ 104.2 million, on average, had asset position at US$ + 3.45% p.a. and US$ 140.0 million had asset position at US$ + LIBOR + 1.0% p.a.

b.1 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of operations - The purpose of these contracts is to make the exchange rate of the revenues of subsidiaries Oleoquímica, Oxiteno S.A. and Oxiteno Nordeste equal to the exchange rate of the cost of their main raw materials during their operating cycles. As of March 31, 2014, these swap contracts totaled US$ 13.8 million and, on average, had an asset position at 79.8% of CDI and liability position at US$ + 0.0% p.a.

b.2 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of net investments in foreign operations - The purpose of these contracts is to minimize the effect of exchange variation of investments in foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the functional currency of the Company, turning them into investments in Brazilian Reais. On March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 36.0 million in notional amount with asset position at 94.6% of CDI and liability position of US$ + 0.0% p.a.

c - Hedging against the interest rate fixed in local financing - The purpose of these contracts is to convert the interest rate on financing contracted in Brazilian Reais from fixed into floating. On March 31, 2014 these swap contracts totaled R$ 327.5 million of notional amount corresponding to principal amount of related debt, and on average had an asset position at 11.8% p.a. and liability position at 98.6% of CDI.
 
Hedge accounting

The Company and its subsidiaries test, throughout the duration of the hedge, the effectiveness of their derivatives, as well as the changes in their fair value. The Company and its subsidiaries designate as fair value hedges certain derivative financial instruments used to offset the variations in interest and exchange rates, based on the market value of financing contracted in Brazilian Reais and U.S. dollars.

On March 31, 2014 the notional amount of interest rate hedging instruments totaled R$ 327.5 million referring to the principal of the pre-fixed loans in Brazilian Reais. As of March 31, 2014, a loss of R$ 1.0 million related to the result of hedging instruments, an income of R$ 7.6 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt and an expense of R$ 17.4 million related to the accrued interest rate of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operations into 98.6% of CDI.

On March 31, 2014 the notional amount of foreign exchange hedging instruments designated as fair value hedge totaled US$ 80.0 million. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, an expense of R$ 11.5 million related to the result of hedging instruments, a gain of R$ 1.7 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt and a gain of R$ 5.8 million related to the financial expense of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operation into 104.1% of CDI (see Note 14.c.1).

On March 31, 2014 the notional amount of exchange rate hedging instruments designated as hedges of net investment in a foreign operation totaled US$ 36 million relating to the portion of investments in entities which have functional currency different from the Real. In 2014 a gain of R$ 3.2 million was recorded. The exchange rate on investment and the hedging instrument effects were offset in equity.

Notes to the individual and consolidated interim financial information

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)



The fair value of financial instruments, including currency and interest hedging instruments, was determined as follows:

The fair values of cash and bank deposits balances are identical to their carrying values.
 
Financial investments in investment funds are valued at the value of the fund unit as of the date of the reporting period, which corresponds to their fair value.
Financial investments in CDBs (Bank Certificates of Deposit) and similar investments offer daily liquidity through repurchase at the “yield curve” and, therefore, the Company believes their fair value corresponds to their carrying value.
The fair value calculation of LPG Inc.’s notes in the foreign market (see Note 14.b) is based on the quoted prices in an active market.
The subscription warrants – working capital and subscription warrants – indemnification are based on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3) at the reporting date.

The fair value of other financial investments and financings was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for marking-to-market, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries can use quotes provided by the transaction counterparties.

The interpretation of market information on the choice of calculation methodologies for the fair value requires considerable judgment and estimates to obtain a value deemed appropriate to each situation. Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessary indicate the amounts that may be realized in the current market.

Financial instruments were classified as loans and receivables or financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, except (i) all exchange rate and interest rate hedging instruments, which are measured at fair value through profit or loss, (ii) financial investments classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss, (iii) financial investments that are classified as available for sale, which are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (see Note 4), (iv) loans and financing measured at fair value through profit or loss (see Note 14), (v) guarantees to customers that have vendor arrangements (see Note 14.l), which are measured at fair value through profit or loss and (vi) subscription warrants – working capital and subscription warrants – indemnification, which are measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial investments classified as held-to-maturity are measured at amortized cost. Cash, banks and trade receivables are classified as loans and receivables. Trade payables and other payables are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.

Fair value hierarchy of financial instruments on the balance sheet

The financial instruments recognized at fair value on the balance sheet are classified in the following categories:

(a)  
Level 1 - prices negotiated (without adjustment) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

(b)  
Level 2 - inputs other than prices negotiated in active markets included in Level 1 and observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
 
 (c)  
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability which are not based on observable market variables (unobservable inputs).
 
The table below shows a summary of the financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

1) Refer to subscription warrants issued by the Company in the Extrafarma acquisition that, if exercised, may lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. The subscription warrants are measured using the price of the shares issued by the Ultrapar (UGPA3) on the reporting date. The subscription warrants – indemnification are also adjusted to the Company’s dividend yield, since the exercise is only possible from 2020 onwards and they are not entitled to dividends. The number of shares of subscription warrants – indemnification is adjusted according to the changes in the amounts of provision for tax, civil and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period previous to January 31, 2014. For further information of the Extrafarma acquisition, see Note 3.a).

Sensitivity analysis

The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments only to hedge against identified risks and in amounts consistent with the risk (limited to 100% of the identified risk). Thus, for purposes of sensitivity analysis of market risks associated with financial instruments, as required by CVM Instruction 475/08, the Company analyzes the hedging instrument and the hedged item together, as shown on the charts below.

For the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange hedging instruments, management adopted as a likely scenario the Real/U.S. dollar exchange rates at maturity of each swap, projected by U.S dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of March 31, 2014. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 3.04 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional appreciation or depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the likely scenario, according to the risk to which the hedged item is exposed.

Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of March 31, 2014, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Brazilian Reais and the balance in Brazilian Reais as of March 31, 2014 were calculated in each of the three scenarios. The table below shows the change in the values of the main derivative instruments and their hedged items, considering the changes in the exchange rate in the different scenarios:

For sensitivity analysis of hedging instruments for interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company used the futures curve of DI x Pre contract on BM&FBOVESPA as of March 31, 2014 for each of the swap and debt (hedged item) maturities, to determine the likely scenarios. Scenarios II and III were estimated based on a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, of the likely scenario pre-fixed interest rate.
 
Based on the three scenarios of interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company estimated the values of its debt and hedging instruments according to the risk which is being hedged (variations in the pre-fixed interest rates in Brazilian Reais), by projecting them to future value at the contracted rates and bringing them to present value at the interest rates of the estimated scenarios. The result is shown in the table below:

b. 
Tax matters

Provisions

On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Cia. Ultragaz and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. (“Bahiana”) filed for and obtained a preliminary injunction to recognize and offset PIS and COFINS credits on LPG purchases, against other taxes levied by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court on May 16, 2008. Under the preliminary injunction, the subsidiaries were required to make escrow deposits for these debits in the accumulated amount of R$ 359,536 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 345,513 as of December 31, 2013) and have recognized a corresponding liability.

The subsidiary IPP has provisions for IRPJ and CSLL related to the unconstitutionality of Law No. 9316/1996, that denied the deduction of CSLL from the IRPJ tax basis, in the amount of R$ 20,014 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 19,806 as of December 31, 2013).

The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste, Cia. Ultragaz, Tequimar, Tropical, Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. (“EMCA”) and IPP filed for a preliminary injunction seeking the deduction of ICMS from their PIS and COFINS tax bases. Oxiteno Nordeste and IPP obtained the right to pay the amounts into escrow deposits through an injunction, and recognized a corresponding provision in the amount of R$ 87,731 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 86,306 as of December 31, 2013). The decisions of these and all claims involving this issue are suspended owing to the granting of injunctive relief on the Declaration of Constitutionality Action No. 18.

The subsidiary IPP has provision related to ICMS, mainly with respect to several reasons that resulted in tax assessments for which the proof of payment is not so evident, R$ 19,867 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 19,449 as of December 31, 2013).

 
Contingent liabilities
 
The main tax claims of subsidiary IPP and its subsidiaries classified as having a possible risk of loss, and that have not been recognized in the interim financial information due to this assessment, are related to ICMS, and mainly, to: (a) the required proportional reversal of ICMS credits recognized on the purchase of ethanol that was later resold at lower prices as a result of PROÁLCOOL, a Federal Government program to encourage alcohol production, determining the anticipation of financial subsidy by the distributors to the mill owners and their subsequent reimbursement by the DNC (current National Oil Agency), R$ 115,755 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 113,555 as of December 31, 2013), (b) alleged undue ICMS credits for which the tax authorities understand that there was no proof of origin, R$ 29,644 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 29,565 as of December 31, 2013), (c) assessments for alleged non-payment of ICMS, R$ 25,980 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 25,576 as of December 31, 2013), (d) assessment issued in Ourinhos/SP in connection with the return of ethanol loans made with deferred tax, R$ 41,941 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 40,848 as of December 31, 2013), (e) assessments in the State of Rio de Janeiro demanding the reversal of ICMS credits on interstate sales made under Article 33 of ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed the use of the ICMS credit but was suspended by an injunction granted by STF (the Brazilian Federal Court of Justice), R$ 17,366 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 17,222 as of December 31, 2013), (f) ICMS credits taken in relation to bills considered invalid, though the understanding of the STJ (the Brazilian High Court of Justice) is that it is possible to take credit, even if there is defect in the document of the seller, as long as it is confirmed that the transaction occurred, R$ 27,312 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 27,215 as of December 31, 2013); (g) assessments arising from surplus or shortage of inventory, generated by differences in temperature or handling of the product, without the corresponding issuance of invoices, R$ 47,720 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 47,106 as of December 31, 2013), (h) infraction relating to ICMS credits due to alleged non-compliance with legal formalities, R$ 36, 649 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 36,398 as of December 31, 2013) and; (i) assessments arising from ICMS credits related to inputs of ethanol from certain States that had granted tax benefits to producers of alcohol in alleged disagreement with the law, R$ 30,758 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 30,726 as of December 31, 2013); (j) assessments that consider various possible breaches of auxiliary obligations, among them the alleged lack of issuance of invoices, the alleged failure of delivery or delivery with errors of informative reports to the tax authorities, errors in the filling of DANFE - Auxiliary Document Electronic Invoice, among others, R$ 11,813 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 11,806 as of December 31, 2013); and (k) infraction notice for non-payment of ICMS related to the acquisition of basic lubricating oil, whose remittance was deferred to the time of the subsequent industrialized output relating to interstate transactions (covered by the constitutional non-incidence - article 155, X, ‘b’ of the Federal Constitution), R$ 10,884 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 10,657 as of December 31, 2013).

The subsidiary IPP has assessments invalidating the set-off of IPI credits in connection with the purchase of raw materials used in the manufacturing of products which sales are not subject to IPI under the protection of tax immunity. The non-provisioned amount of this contingency classified as a possible risk of loss, as of March 31, 2014, is R$ 143,055 (R$ 117,697 as of December 31, 2013).


 Contingent assets

The Company and its subsidiaries have favorable judgments to pay contributions to PIS and COFINS without the changes introduced by Law 9718/1998 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these contributions on sources of income other than gross revenue. In 2005, the STF (the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court) decided the question in favor of the taxpayers. Although this has set a favorable precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await the formal decision in their own lawsuits. Certain lawsuits of the Company’s subsidiaries are currently pending trial and, in the event all such lawsuits are decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income and social contribution taxes, may reach R$ 36,197, net of attorney’s fees.

c. 
Civil claims

Provisions

The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions for lawsuits and administrative proceedings, mainly derived from contracts entered into with customers and former services providers, as well as proceedings related to environmental issues in the amount of R$ 93,748 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 90,886 as of December 31, 2013).

Contingent liabilities

The subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz is party to an administrative proceeding before CADE (Brazilian antitrust authority) based on alleged anti-competitive practices in the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. The CADE entered a decision against Cia. Ultragaz imposing a penalty of R$ 23,104. The imposition of such administrative decision was suspended by a court order and its merit is being judicially reviewed. Based on the above elements and on the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiary did not recognized a provision for this contingency.

d. 
Labor matters

Provisions

The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions of R$ 61,865 as of March 31, 2014 (R$ 60,174 as of December 31, 2013) for labor litigation filed by former employees and by employees of our service providers mainly contesting the non-payment of labor rights.

Contingent liabilities

In 1990, the Petrochemical Industry Labor Union (Sindiquímica), of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, companies located in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex, are members, filed separate lawsuits against the subsidiaries demanding the compliance with the fourth section of the collective labor agreement, which provided for a salary adjustment in lieu of the salary policies practiced. In the same year, a collective labor dispute was also filed by the Union of Employers (SINPEQ) against Sindiquímica, requiring the recognition of the loss of effectiveness of such fourth section. Individual claims were rejected. The collective bargain agreement is currently pending trial by STF. In the second half of 2010, some companies in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex signed an agreement with Sindiquímica and reported the fact in the collective bargain agreement dispute. Based on the opinion of their legal advisors, that reviewed the latest STF decision in the collective bargain agreement dispute as well as the status of the individual claims involving the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, the management of such subsidiaries believed that it was not necessary to recognize a provision as of March 31, 2014.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings of tax, civil and labor nature, individually less relevant, which were estimated by their legal counsel as possible and/or remote risk (proceedings whose chance of loss is 50% or less), and the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries are also litigating for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recognized in the interim financial information due to their contingent nature.

Employee benefits and private pension plan (Consolidated)
 
a. 
ULTRAPREV- Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar

In February 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of a defined contribution pension plan to be sponsored by Company and each of its subsidiaries. Participating employees have been contributing to this plan, managed by Ultraprev - Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar (“Ultraprev”), since August 2001. Under the terms of the plan, every year each participating employee chooses his or her basic contribution to the plan. Each sponsoring company provides a matching contribution in an amount equivalent to each basic contribution, up to a limit of 11% of the employee’s reference salary, according to the rules of the plan. As participating employees retire, they may choose to receive either (i) a monthly sum ranging between 0.5% and 1.0% of their respective accumulated fund in Ultraprev or (ii) a fixed monthly amount which will exhaust their respective accumulated fund over a period of 5 to 25 years. The sponsoring company does not guarantee the amounts or the duration of the benefits received by each employee that retires. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 4,868 (R$ 4,379 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013) to Ultraprev, which amount is recognized as expense in the income statement. The total number of participating employees as of March 31, 2014 was 6,785 active participants and 121 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 29 former employees receiving benefits under the rules of a previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

Considerations on the financial and operational information

Standards and criteria adopted in preparing the information

The financial information presented in this document has been prepared based on the interim financial information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, prepared in accordance with IAS 34 issued by the IASB, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1), and presented in accordance with standards established by CVM. The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The financial information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz, Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated financial information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.

On September 30, 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma, one of Brazil’s ten largest drugstore chains. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar’s financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma’s results and its operational data included in this release refer, for the first quarter of 2014, exclusively to the months of February and March 2014. Aiming to provide a comparison basis for the analysis of the evolution of Extrafarma’s performance, we present its results for the first quarter of 2013 including the months of February and March 2013. As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, 12,021,100 new common, nominative book-entry shares with no par value of Ultrapar were issued, which corresponded to R$ 141.9 million of capital increase and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in equity of R$ 640.7 million. In addition, Ultrapar issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, will result in an issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, registered as R$ 42.1 million in current liabilities and R$ 108.6 million in non-current liabilities as of the closing date. The provisory value of the association at the date of the merger of shares was R$ 791.4 million, subject to adjustments pursuant to the association agreement, notably working capital and net debt adjustments. For more information, see Note 3.a and Note 22 to our Interim Financial Information (ITR) for 1Q14.

Gross profit: The gross profit of Ultrapar amounted to R$ 1,272 million in 1Q14, up 20% over 1Q13, as a consequence of the growth in the gross profit of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultracargo and the consolidation of Extrafarma’s gross profit as from February 2014. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s gross profit decreased by 1%, mainly as a result of the seasonality between periods.
 
 
Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ultrapar’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 809 million in 1Q14, an increase of 23% over 1Q13, as a result of the growth in Ipiranga’s sales volume and expenses with marketing and of the effects of inflation on expenses. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 14%.

Depreciation and amortization: Total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses in 1Q14 amounted to R$ 214 million, a 13% increase from 1Q13, as a result of investments made during the last 12 months, mainly in Ipiranga, and the consolidation of Extrafarma as from February 2014. Compared with 4Q13, total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses increased by 7%.

Operating income: Ultrapar’s operating income amounted to R$ 490 million in 1Q14, up 15% over 1Q13, as a result of the increase in the operating income of Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s operating income decreased by 23%, mainly as a result of the seasonality between periods.

Financial result: Ultrapar’s net debt at the end of March 2014 was R$ 4.3 billion (1.4 times LTM EBITDA), compared to R$ 3.7 billion in March 2013 (1.5 times LTM EBITDA). Ultrapar reported R$ 115 million of net financial expenses in 1Q14, R$ 54 million higher than that in 1Q13, mainly due to increased net debt in 1Q14 and the 3.5 p.p. rise in the base interest rate between March 2013 and March 2014 and the effects of exchange rate fluctuations, especially related to changes in Venezuela’s currency exchange system. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s net financial expenses increased R$ 21 million, mainly due to increased net debt in 1Q14.

Income and social contribution taxes / Tax incentives: Ultrapar reported income tax and social contribution expenses, net of benefit of tax holidays of R$ 124 million in 1Q14, compared with expenses of R$ 117 million in 1Q13 and R$ 168 million in 4Q13, an increase of 5% and a reduction of 26%, respectively, mainly as a result of the fluctuations on pre-tax profit.

Net income: Net income in 1Q14 amounted to R$ 249 million, up 1% over 1Q13, mainly due to the EBITDA growth between periods, partially offset by increased net financial expenses and increased depreciation and amortization, resulting from investments made in expansions and in the maturing process. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s net income decreased by 33%, mainly due to the seasonal reduction of EBITDA in Ultrapar’s businesses.

EBITDA: Ultrapar’s consolidated EBITDA totaled R$ 702 million in 1Q14, up 14% over 1Q13, due to the EBITDA growth in Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo and the consolidation of Extrafarma’s EBITDA as from February 2014. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar's EBITDA decreased by 16%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods.

The EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) presented in this document represents the net income before (i) income and social contribution taxes, (ii) net financial expense (income) and (iii) depreciation and amortization, in accordance with ICVM 527/12. The purpose of including EBITDA information is to provide a measure used by the management for internal assessment of our operating results, and because a portion of our employee profit sharing plan is linked directly or indirectly to EBITDA performance. It is also a financial indicator widely used by investors and analysts to measure our ability to generate cash from operations and our operating performance. We also calculate EBITDA in connection with covenants related to some of our financing, as described in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements. We believe EBITDA allows a better understanding not only of our financial performance but also of our capacity of meeting the payment of interest and principal from our debt and of obtaining resources for our investments and working capital. Our definition of EBITDA may differ from, and, therefore, may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used by other companies, thereby limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because EBITDA excludes net financial expense (income), income and social contribution taxes and depreciation and amortization, it provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by debt restructurings, fluctuations in interest rates or changes in income and social contribution taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting practices adopted in Brazil or IFRS, and it should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income, as a measure of operating performance, as a substitute for cash flows from operations or as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA has material limitations that impair its value as a measure of a company’s overall profitability since it does not address certain ongoing costs of our business that could significantly affect profitability such as financial expense (income), income and social contribution taxes and depreciation and amortization.

Ipiranga

Operational performance: Ipiranga’s sales volume totaled 6,067 thousand cubic meters in 1Q14, 9% above 1Q13 volume. In 1Q14, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 12%, driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and significant investments made in Ipiranga’s network expansion. Diesel volume increased by 6% over 1Q13, as a result of investments made in network expansion, with a growth of 8% in sales volume in the reseller segment, and of the economic growth. Compared with 4Q13, sales volume decreased by 8%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ipiranga’s net sales and services reached R$13,922 million in 1Q14, up 17% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras since 1Q13 and increased ethanol costs, and (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the expansion of the service station network, which enabled a higher share of fuels for light vehicles and of diesel sold through the reseller segment (sales at service stations). Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s net sales and services decreased by 3%, mainly due to the seasonally lower volume, partially offset by increases in diesel, gasoline and ethanol costs.

Cost of products sold: Ipiranga’s cost of goods sold totaled R$13,093 million in 1Q14, up 18% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to increased sales volume and cost increases (i) in diesel, in January, March and November 2013, and (ii) in gasoline, in January and November 2013, and (iii) consequently, in ethanol. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s cost of goods sold decreased by 2%, due to the seasonally lower volume, partially offset by cost increases in diesel and gasoline in November 2013 (including the temporary inventory benefits in 4Q13) and by increased ethanol costs, mainly due to the inter-harvest period.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ipiranga’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 482 million in 1Q14, up 11% over 1Q13, mainly resulting from (i) increased sales volume and higher unit freight costs, mainly due to the rise in diesel costs and inflation, (ii) the expansion of the distribution network, (iii) the effects of inflation on expenses, especially personnel, and (iv) increased expenses with advertising and marketing, mainly related to the World Cup 2014. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 8%, mainly as a result of increased advertising expenses and marketing.

EBITDA: Ipiranga reported EBITDA of R$ 499 million in 1Q14, a 15% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) an improved sales mix, with greater share of the reseller segment (sales at service stations), (iii) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at the service station, and (iv) initiatives to reduce the grey market, effects partially offset by increased expenses, especially with advertising, marketing, personnel and freight. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s EBITDA decreased by 20%, mainly due to seasonally lower sales volumes, increased personnel expenses (annual collective wage adjustments in January), increased expenses with advertising and marketing, and extraordinary effects in 4Q13, which benefited the EBITDA in 4Q13 by R$ 53 million, represented by (i) R$ 34 million related to the temporary effect of inventory gain resulting from the increase in gasoline and diesel costs by Petrobras, and (ii) R$ 19 million related to the sale of part of a logistics facility.
 
Oxiteno

Operational performance: The volume of specialty chemicals in the Brazilian market in 1Q14 grew by 4% (4 thousand tons), about 2 times the GDP growth estimated for the year, especially in the home and personal care and agrochemicals segments. Total volume sold in the Brazilian market decreased by 3% (4 thousand tons), with the growth in specialties being offset by lower sales of glycols (reduction of 8 thousand tons), a product with volatility in prices and in demand. In the foreign market, sales volume decreased by 5% (3 thousand tons), mainly as a result of the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela, due to the limitations in importing raw material in that country. With all these effects, Oxiteno’s sales volume in 1Q14 totaled 191 thousand tons, down 4% (7 thousand tons) compared to 1Q13. Compared to 4Q13, sales volume grew 7% (12 thousand tons), mainly due to increased sales of glycols.
 
 
100

 

 
Net revenue from sales and services: Oxiteno’s net revenues totaled R$ 840 million in 1Q14, up 11% over 1Q13, mainly due to the 18% weaker Real and the improved sales mix, with higher share of specialty chemicals in the Brazilian market, effects partially offset by lower sales volume. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s net revenues increased by 1%, due to the increased sales volume and the 4% weaker Real, effects partially offset by the growth of glycols in the product mix of the 1Q14.

Cost of products sold: Oxiteno’s cost of goods sold in 1Q14 totaled R$ 635 million, 6% higher than that in 1Q13, mainly due to (i) the effect of the 18% weaker Real on variable costs, (ii) increased personnel expenses, as a result of the effects of inflation and an increase in variable compensation, in line with the earnings progression, and (iii) the startup of Oxiteno’s operations in the United States and adjustment on the operating level in Venezuela, effects that were partially offset by lower sales volume and lower raw material prices, especially ethylene. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s cost of goods sold increased by 1%, mainly due to the effect of the 4% weaker Real on variable costs and the increased sales volume, partially offset by the effects of a 9% reduction in unit variable costs in dollars.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Oxiteno’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 129 million in 1Q14, up 21% over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) increased logistics expenses, mainly as a result of increases in diesel costs and the effect of a weaker Real, (ii) the effects of inflation on expenses, and (iii) an increase in variable compensation, in line with the earnings progression. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 1%.

EBITDA: Oxiteno reported EBITDA of R$ 109 million in 1Q14, a 35% increase over 1Q13, equivalent to US$ 241/ton, mainly due to the effect of the 18% weaker Real and a more favorable sales mix in 1Q14. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s EBITDA increased by 2%, mainly due to the increased sales volume and the effect of the 4% weaker Real.


Ultragaz

Operational performance: In 1Q14, Ultragaz’s sales volume reached 392 thousand tons, down 1% from 1Q13, mainly due to high temperatures, above the historical average, registered in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil, partially offset by the effect of investments made to capture new customers, especially in the residential and small- and medium-sized companies segments. Compared with 4Q13, Ultragaz’s sales volume decreased by 7%, mainly due to seasonality between periods.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ultragaz’s net sales and services totaled R$ 929 million in 1Q14, a 1% growth over 1Q13, mainly due to commercial initiatives, including an improved sales mix in the bulk segment, especially in the residential and small- and medium-sized companies segments. Compared with 4Q13, Ultragaz’s net sales and services decreased by 8%, mainly due to seasonally lower volume.

Cost of products sold: Ultragaz’s cost of goods sold totaled R$ 798 million in 1Q14, up 1% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of the planned requalification of an increased number of LPG bottles, with an estimated effect of R$ 7 million. Compared with 4Q13, Ultragaz’s cost of goods sold decreased by 8%, mainly due to seasonally lower volume.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ultragaz’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 108 million in 1Q14, up 9% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of the effects of inflation on personnel expenses and increased expenses with projects. Compared with 4Q13, Ultragaz’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased by 3%, mainly due to seasonally lower volume.

EBITDA: Ultragaz’s EBITDA reached R$ 61 million in 1Q14, down 4% from 1Q13, mainly as a result of the planned requalification of an increased number of LPG bottles and lower sales volume, effects partially offset by commercial initiatives. Excluding the estimated effect of R$ 7 million with the requalification of an increased number of LPG bottles, Ultragaz’s EBITDA in 1Q14 would have grown by 7%. Compared with 4Q13, Ultragaz’s EBITDA decreased by 3%, mainly due to seasonally lower volume.


 
101

 

Ultracargo

Operational performance: In 1Q14, Ultracargo’s average storage grew by 16% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to the increased handling (i) of fuel oil for thermoelectric plants and (ii) of fuels for vehicles, lubricants and methanol (used in the production of biodiesel), as a result of the growth in these segments. Compared with 4Q13, Ultracargo’s average storage increased by 4%, mainly due to the increased handling of the products above, partially offset by the typical seasonality between first and fourth quarters.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ultracargo’s net sales and services totaled R$ 86 million in 1Q14, up 13% over 1Q13 and 5% over 4Q13, mainly due to the growth in the average storage in its terminals in the respective periods.

Cost of services provided: Ultracargo’s cost of services provided in 1Q14 amounted to R$ 35 million, an 11% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) increased average storage, (ii) effects of inflation on costs and (iii) increased depreciation, resulting from capacity expansions. Compared with 4Q13, Ultracargo’s cost of services provided increased by 5%, mainly due to the increased average storage in its terminals.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ultracargo’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 23 million in 1Q14, up 9% over 1Q13, mainly due to the effects of inflation on expenses.

EBITDA: Ultracargo’s EBITDA reached R$ 41 million in 1Q14, a 15% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to the increased average storage of its terminals. Compared with 4Q13, Ultracargo’s EBITDA increased by 10%, mainly due to the increase average storage in its terminals and lower expenses with projects in 1Q14.


Extrafarma

As highlighted in "Considerations on the financial and operational information", unless otherwise indicated, Extrafarma information for 1Q14 and 1Q13 refers to the months of February and March of each year.

Operational performance: Extrafarma ended 1Q14 with 200 drugstores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 drugstores (14%) compared to the end of 1Q13. Due to the expansion of Extrafarma’s drugstore network, at the end of 1Q14, 33% of the drugstores were under-36 months of operation, a similar percentage compared to the 1Q13. However, total drugstores with less than one year of operation in 1Q14 was 14%, compared to 7% in 1Q13, as a result of the accelerated pace of drugstores openings during the last 12 months.

Gross revenues: Extrafarma’s gross revenues totaled R$ 190 million in 1Q14, an increase of 19% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to the increase of 22% in gross revenues of the retail segment, which totaled R$ 163 million. The growth in gross revenues of the retail segment is mainly derived from the 11% increase in the gross revenues of the drugstores with more than 1 year (same stores sales) and the increased average number of drugstores. During 1Q14, gross revenues of the wholesale segment increased by 4% compared to 1Q13.

Cost of products sold and gross profit: Extrafarma’s cost of goods sold totaled R$ 124 million in 1Q14, up 18% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of increased sales and the annual adjustment in the prices of medicines, set by the Chamber for the Regulation of the Medical Pharmaceuticals Market (CMED). In 1Q14, Extrafarma’s gross profit reached R$ 57 million, up 25% over 1Q13, mainly due to the growth in gross revenues in the retail segment.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Extrafarma’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 49 million in 1Q14, a 35% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) the 15% increase in the average number of drugstores, (ii) the increases above inflation on unit expenses with personnel and (iii) expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth in the amount of R$ 3 million in 1Q14.
 
 
102

 

 
EBITDA: Extrafarma reported EBITDA of R$ 10 million in 1Q14, down 7% from 1Q13. Excluding the above-mentioned expenses with integration and structuring, Extrafarma’s EBITDA would have reached R$ 13 million, a 16% increase over 1Q13, mainly as a result of same stores sales growth. Excluding these expenses with integration and structuring, EBITDA margin in 1Q14 was 6.9%, 0.2 p.p. below the EBITDA margin in 1Q13, mainly due to the increased share of drugstores opened less than one year ago and, therefore, still in the maturing process.


We hereby inform that in accordance with the requirements of CVM Resolution 381/03, our independent auditors Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Auditores Independentes have not performed during these three months of 2014 any service other than the external audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the review of interim financial information of Ultrapar and subsidiaries.

“We started 2014 as planned, reporting another quarter of earnings growth, continuing the trend seen in previous years. Such growth, even in a more challenging economic environment, is the result of consistent investments to strengthen and expand our businesses, of our corporate governance and the unique combination of Ultrapar’s attributes, which allow for differentiation in our operating segments and consistent performance. We also concluded our association with Extrafarma on January 31, and have already completed several steps of the transaction’s business plan for its integration with Ultrapar and to structure the company for a more accelerated growth.”

Considerations on the financial and operational information

The financial information presented in this document has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The financial information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated financial information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.
 
In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma, one of Brazil’s ten largest drugstore chains. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar’s financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma’s results and its operational data included in this release refer, for the first quarter of 2014, exclusively to the months of February and March 2014. Aiming to provide a comparison basis for the analysis of the evolution of Extrafarma’s performance, we present its results for the first quarter of 2013 including the months of February and March 2013. As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, 12,021,100 new common, nominative book-entry shares with no par value of Ultrapar were issued, which corresponded to R$ 141.9 million of capital increase and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in equity of R$ 640.7 million. In addition, Ultrapar issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, will result in an issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, registered as R$ 42.1 million in current liabilities and R$ 108.6 million in non-current liabilities as of the closing date. The provisory value of the association at the date of the merger of shares was R$ 791.4 million, subject to adjustments pursuant to the association agreement, notably working capital and net debt adjustments. For more information, see Note 3.a and Note 22 to our Interim Financial Information (ITR) for 1Q14.

Ultrapar receives important international recognition – Ultrapar was elected once again one of the world’s most admired energy companies. Ultrapar was ranked second in the Most Admired Companies 2014 list of Fortune Magazine, two positions above that of 2013 and three above that of 2012. The research evaluates nine criteria, from investment value to social responsibility, and this year about 4,000 executives, directors and equity analysts from 57 sectors participated in the survey.

Ultrapar concludes the association agreement with Extrafarma and starts consolidating its results as from February 1st – On September 30, 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma, one of Brazil’s ten largest drugstore chains. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the transaction by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar's financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Concurrently to the closing, we initiated the process of integration with Ultrapar and of structuring Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth, to be achieved through an increased investment capacity, the strengthening of Extrafarma’s management team, by implementing Ultrapar’s recognized mechanisms of corporate governance, incentives, and alignment of interests, and the access to more than 11 thousand retail points of fuels and convenience with the Ipiranga brand and of LPG with the Ultragaz brand. Among the steps already implemented in the integration and the structuring for a more accelerated growth, we highlight (i) the centralization in the corporate center of treasury activities, accounts payable and legal department, starting the alignment of Extrafarma to Ultrapar’s management model, (ii) the establishment of a new organizational structure, with the creation of areas dedicated to the activities related to operations and expansion, allowing greater specialization and agility in the drugstore opening process, (iii) allocation of managers and analysts from Ultrapar and its businesses’ staff to Extrafarma, in order to strengthen its team and facilitate the process of functional and cultural integration, and (iv) the detailing of the working plan to enable accelerated drugstore openings from late 2014 onwards.

 Executive summary of the results
 
During 1Q14, the Brazilian macroeconomic scenario followed the same trend seen in 2013 of modest growth and inflationary pressure. The Brazilian government continued to raise the base interest rate, increasing it from 10.0% at the end of December 2013 to 10.75% at the end of the March 2014, compared to 7.25% in March 2013. The Real ended 1Q14 at R$ 2.26/US$, with an average Real in 1Q14 18% weaker than that in 1Q13. The number of light vehicles registered in 1Q14 totaled 0.8 million, a slight decrease when compared to the same period of last year, which did not change the pace of growth in the average fleet seen in recent years. According to the members of Abrafarma, sales in the retail pharmacy sector grew 17% in 1Q14 compared to 1Q13, continuing the growth seen in recent years.
 
In this economic and operating environment, Ultrapar presented consolidated EBITDA of R$ 702 million in 1Q14, up 14% over 1Q13, due to the EBITDA growth in Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo and the consolidation of Extrafarma’s EBITDA as from February 2014.
 
At Ipiranga, sales volume in 1Q14 grew by 9% compared to 1Q13, driven mainly by growth in the light vehicle fleet and by investments made in recent years in Ipiranga’s network expansion (opening of new service stations and conversion of unbranded service stations) and related logistics infrastructure. Ipiranga’s EBITDA reached R$ 499 million, a 15% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to increased sales volume, to improved sales mix, with greater share of the reseller segment (sales at service stations), to the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at the service station, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty, and to initiatives to reduce informality, such as the collection of PIS/Cofins taxes of the whole ethanol chain at the producer and the conversion of unbranded service stations.
 
Oxiteno’s sales volume reached 191 thousand tons, down 4% compared to 1Q13, due to lower sales of glycols, partially offset by increased sales of specialty chemicals, which were made ​​possible by investments in capacity expansion and acquisitions over the years. Oxiteno’s EBITDA totaled R$ 109 million in 1Q14, a 35% increase over 1Q13, mainly as a result of the effect of the 18% weaker Real and an improved sales mix in 1Q14.
 
Ultragaz presented a reduction of 1% in sales volume in 1Q14 compared to 1Q13, mainly due to high temperatures, above the historical average, registered in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil. In 1Q14, Ultragaz’s EBITDA decreased by 4% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to lower sales volume and the planned requalification of an increased number of LPG bottles since 4Q13, with an estimated effect of R$ 7 million. Excluding this effect, Ultragaz’s EBITDA would have grown 7%.
 
At Ultracargo, the average storage grew by 16% compared to 1Q13, reaching 722 thousand m³, mainly as a result of the increased handling of oil derivatives. Ultracargo’s EBITDA reached R$ 41 million in 1Q14, a 15% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to the increased average storage of terminals.
 
Extrafarma ended the 1Q14 with 200 company-owned stores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 stores compared to 1Q13. Extrafarma’s EBITDA for February and March 2014 totaled R$ 10 million, down 7% from 1Q13. Excluding the expenses with integration and structuring detailed throughout this document, Extrafarma’s EBITDA would have reached R$ 13 million, a 16% increase over 1Q13, mainly as a result of increased revenues of drugstores existing for more than one year (same stores sales). Excluding these expenses with integration and structuring, EBITDA margin in 1Q14 was 6.9%, 0.2 p.p. below the EBITDA margin in 1Q13, mainly due to the increased share of drugstores opened less than one year ago and, therefore, still in the maturing process.
 
Net earnings in 1Q14 reached R$ 249 million, up 1% over 1Q13, due to the EBITDA growth, partially offset by (i) increased financial expenses, mainly as a result of the raise in the base interest rate by the Central Bank and the increased net debt, from R$ 3.7 billion in March 2013 (1.5 times LTM EBITDA) to R$ 4.3 billion in March 2014 (1.4 times LTM EBITDA), and (ii) increased depreciation and amortization expenses, as a result of investments made and in the maturing process.

Ipiranga
 
Operational performance – Ipiranga’s sales volume totaled 6,067 thousand cubic meters in 1Q14, 9% above 1Q13 volume. In 1Q14, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 12%, driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and significant investments made in Ipiranga’s network expansion. Diesel volume increased by 6% over 1Q13, as a result of investments made in network expansion, with a growth of 8% in sales volume in the reseller segment, and of the economic growth. Compared with 4Q13, sales volume decreased by 8%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods.

Ipiranga – Sales volume (000 m³)

 
Net sales and services – Ipiranga’s net sales and services reached R$13,922 million in 1Q14, up 17% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras since 1Q13 and increased ethanol costs, and (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the expansion of the service station network, which enabled a higher share of fuels for light vehicles and of diesel sold through the reseller segment (sales at service stations). Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s net sales and services decreased by 3%, mainly due to the seasonally lower volume, partially offset by increases in diesel, gasoline and ethanol costs.
 
Cost of goods sold – Ipiranga’s cost of goods sold totaled R$13,093 million in 1Q14, up 18% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to increased sales volume and cost increases (i) in diesel, in January, March and November 2013, and (ii) in gasoline, in January and November 2013, and (iii) consequently, in ethanol. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s cost of goods sold decreased by 2%, due to the seasonally lower volume, partially offset by cost increases in diesel and gasoline in November 2013 (including the temporary inventory benefits in 4Q13) and by increased ethanol costs, mainly due to the inter-harvest period.
 
Sales, general and administrative expenses – Ipiranga’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 482 million in 1Q14, up 11% over 1Q13, mainly resulting from (i) increased sales volume and higher unit freight costs, mainly due to the rise in diesel costs and inflation, (ii) the expansion of the distribution network, (iii) the effects of inflation on expenses, especially personnel, and (iv) increased expenses with advertising and marketing, mainly related to the World Cup 2014. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 8%, mainly as a result of increased advertising expenses and marketing.
 
EBITDA Ipiranga reported EBITDA of R$ 499 million in 1Q14, a 15% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) an improved sales mix, with greater share of the reseller segment (sales at service stations), (iii) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at the service station, and (iv) initiatives to reduce the grey market, effects partially offset by increased expenses, especially with advertising, marketing, personnel and freight. Compared with 4Q13, Ipiranga’s EBITDA decreased by 20%, mainly due to seasonally lower sales volumes, increased personnel expenses (annual collective wage adjustments in January), increased expenses with advertising and marketing, and extraordinary effects in 4Q13, which benefited the EBITDA in 4Q13 by R$ 53 million, represented by (i) R$ 34 million related to the temporary effect of inventory gain resulting from the increase in gasoline and diesel costs by Petrobras, and (ii) R$ 19 million related to the sale of part of a logistics facility.

Oxiteno
 
Operational performance – The volume of specialty chemicals in the Brazilian market in 1Q14 grew by 4% (4 thousand tons), about 2 times the GDP growth estimated for the year, especially in the home and personal care and agrochemicals segments. Total volume sold in the Brazilian market decreased by 3% (4 thousand tons), with the growth in specialties being offset by lower sales of glycols (reduction of 8 thousand tons), a product with volatility in prices and in demand. In the foreign market, sales volume decreased by 5% (3 thousand tons), mainly as a result of the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela, due to the limitations in importing raw material in that country. With all these effects, Oxiteno’s sales volume in 1Q14 totaled 191 thousand tons, down 4% (7 thousand tons) compared to 1Q13. Compared to 4Q13, sales volume grew 7% (12 thousand tons), mainly due to increased sales of glycols.
 
Oxiteno – Sales volume (000 tons)
 
 
Net sales and services – Oxiteno’s net revenues totaled R$ 840 million in 1Q14, up 11% over 1Q13, mainly due to the 18% weaker Real and the improved sales mix, with higher share of specialty chemicals in the Brazilian market, effects partially offset by lower sales volume. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s net revenues increased by 1%, due to the increased sales volume and the 4% weaker Real, effects partially offset by the growth of glycols in the product mix of the 1Q14.
 
Cost of goods sold – Oxiteno’s cost of goods sold in 1Q14 totaled R$ 635 million, 6% higher than that in 1Q13, mainly due to (i) the effect of the 18% weaker Real on variable costs, (ii) increased personnel expenses, as a result of the effects of inflation and an increase in variable compensation, in line with the earnings progression, and (iii) the startup of Oxiteno’s operations in the United States and adjustment on the operating level in Venezuela, effects that were partially offset by lower sales volume and lower raw material prices, especially ethylene. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s cost of goods sold increased by 1%, mainly due to the effect of the 4% weaker Real on variable costs and the increased sales volume, partially offset by the effects of a 9% reduction in unit variable costs in dollars.
 
Sales, general and administrative expenses Oxiteno’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 129 million in 1Q14, up 21% over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) increased logistics expenses, mainly as a result of increases in diesel costs and the effect of a weaker Real, (ii) the effects of inflation on expenses, and (iii) an increase in variable compensation, in line with the earnings progression. Compared with 4Q13, Oxiteno’s sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 1%.
 
EBITDA Oxiteno reported EBITDA of R$ 109 million in 1Q14, a 35% increase over 1Q13, equivalent to US$ 241/ton, mainly due to the effect of the 18% weaker Real and a more favorable sales mix in 1Q14.

Operational performance – Extrafarma ended 1Q14 with 200 drugstores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 drugstores (14%) compared to the end of 1Q13. Due to the expansion of Extrafarma’s drugstore network, at the end of 1Q14, 33% of the drugstores were under-36 months of operation, a similar percentage compared to the 1Q13.

Extrafarma – number and maturation profile of drugstores

 
Gross revenues – Extrafarma’s gross revenues totaled R$ 190 million in 1Q14, an increase of 19% compared to 1Q13, mainly due to the increase of 22% in gross revenues of the retail segment, which totaled R$ 163 million. The growth in gross revenues of the retail segment is mainly derived from the 11% increase in the gross revenues of the drugstores with more than 1 year (same stores sales) and the increased average number of drugstores. During 1Q14, gross revenues of the wholesale segment increased by 4% compared to 1Q13.
 
Cost of goods sold and gross profit – Extrafarma’s cost of goods sold totaled R$ 124 million in 1Q14, up 18% over 1Q13, mainly as a result of increased sales and the annual adjustment in the prices of medicines, set by the Chamber for the Regulation of the Medical Pharmaceuticals Market (CMED). In 1Q14, Extrafarma’s gross profit reached R$ 57 million, up 25% over 1Q13, mainly due to the growth in gross revenues in the retail segment.
 
Sales, general and administrative expenses – Extrafarma’s sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 49 million in 1Q14, a 35% increase over 1Q13, mainly due to (i) the 15% increase in the average number of drugstores, (ii) the increases above inflation on unit expenses with personnel and (iii) expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth in the amount of R$ 3 million in 1Q14.

Excluding the above-mentioned expenses with integration and structuring, Extrafarma’s EBITDA would have reached R$ 13 million, a 16% increase over 1Q13, mainly as a result of same stores sales growth. Excluding these expenses with integration and structuring, EBITDA margin in 1Q14 was 6.9%, 0.2 p.p. below the EBITDA margin in 1Q13, mainly due to the increased share of drugstores opened less than one year ago and, therefore, still in the maturing process.

Financial results – Ultrapar’s net debt at the end of March 2014 was R$ 4.3 billion (1.4 times LTM EBITDA), compared to R$ 3.7 billion in March 2013 (1.5 times LTM EBITDA). Ultrapar reported R$ 115 million of net financial expenses in 1Q14, R$ 54 million higher than that in 1Q13, mainly due to increased net debt in 1Q14 and the 3.5 p.p. rise in the base interest rate between March 2013 and March 2014 and the effects of exchange rate fluctuations, especially related to changes in Venezuela’s currency exchange system. Compared with 4Q13, Ultrapar’s net financial expenses increased R$ 21 million, mainly due to increased net debt in 1Q14.
 
Net earnings – Net earnings in 1Q14 amounted to R$ 249 million, up 1% over 1Q13, mainly due to the EBITDA growth between periods, partially offset by increased net financial expenses and increased depreciation and amortization, resulting from investments made in expansions and in the maturing process.

Outlook
 
Despite the challenging economic environment, Ultrapar will continue to invest in the expansion of its businesses, to reap the benefits of the investments already made, and to undertake initiatives towards differentiation and proximity to customers. Ipiranga will continue to invest in the expansion of its service station network and its related logistics infrastructure, focused on the North, Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil, and will continue to leverage the benefits from the growth of the vehicle fleet in Brazil and the reduction of grey market, mainly in ethanol. Additionally, the company will proceed with its differentiation initiatives, based on increasing the offer of products, services and convenience, to further increase customer loyalty and expand the number of clients. Oxiteno will keep the focus on innovation, with the development of new products, and will act to maximize the benefits from the ramp up of investments in production capacity expansion in Brazil. At Ultragaz, the benefits from recent investments in capturing new customers and the continued focus on managing costs and expenses will contribute to continue its growth. Ultracargo will remain focused on capturing the benefits generated by the expansion of existing terminals and will keep attentive to opportunities from the growing demand for liquid bulk storage in Brazil, mainly as a result of the growing consumption of fuels for vehicles. At Extrafarma, we will focus on completing the integration with Ultrapar, planned to be finished in mid-2014, and on structuring the company for a more accelerated expansion, which should be developed more intensively from late 2014 onwards.
