The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Raízen Combustíveis S.A.

Management's Responsibility for the consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB); this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.  In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion on the consolidated financial statements

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raízen Combustíveis and its subsidiaries at March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

1.
Operations

Raízen Combustíveis S.A. (the “Company” or “Raízen Combustíveis”) is a privately owned company headquartered in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Company is a joint venture (“JV”) between Royal Dutch Shell (“Shell”) and Cosan S.A Indústria e Comércio (“Cosan”), with each partner holding a 50% ownership.

The Company’s main activities are: (i) the distribution and sale of oil and ethanol byproducts and other hydrocarbon fluids and their byproducts, mainly Shell branded, (ii) the sale of natural gas and acting as sales representative for the sale of lubricants in gas stations, (iii) the purchase and sale of products and goods for sale in convenience stores, (iv) the import and export of the aforementioned products and (v) investing in other companies.

Prior to the formation of the JV on June 1, 2011, the Company had a significant market share in the oil exploration and production segment through oil deposit research, exploration and development activities, as well as through lubricant distribution activities, up to April 30, 2011.  Assets and liabilities relating to these segments were contributed to Shell Brasil Petróleo Ltda. on April 30, 2011, when it still was an entity controlled by Shell Brazil Holding B.V. (SBHBV), with a corresponding capital decrease, for purposes of full transfer of the assets and liabilities relating to this activity.

On June 1, 2011, as part of the formation of the JV, the shareholders discussed and approved, at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the change in the type of entity and the change of the corporate name to Raízen Combustíveis S.A.  On the same date, Shell and Cosan announced the formation of the JV, whereby the Company’s economic benefits were equally shared among its shareholders. As part of this process, Cosan contributed to the Company the net assets of its fuel distribution business, known as Cosan Combustíveis e Lubrificantes S.A. (“CCL”), in exchange for 589,448,062 shares in the Company; such contribution was accounted for by the Company as a business combination in which Raízen Combustíveis recognized goodwill of R$344,829.

Thus, these financial statements relate to the Company’s financial position and result of operations upon the creation of the JV on June 1, 2011. Therefore, the consolidated statement of income for the year ended March 31, 2012 only includes the results of operations for a 10 month period, from June 1, 2011, through March 31, 2012.

On April 1, 2012, the Company acquired from Fix Investimentos Ltda. 72.3% of the outstanding common shares of Mime Distribuidora de Petróleo S.A., through the contribution of net assets  of R$75,547 plus consideration in cash of R$1,435.  The new Mime Combustíveis S.A. “Mime” is located in the State of Santa Catarina, and its business is fuel distribution and operating its convenience stores.  The transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and Raízen recognized a gain on bargain purchase of R$17,267.

On November 12, 2012, Raízen acquired from Fix Investimentos Ltda. an additional 3.7% of the outstanding common shares issued by Mime for R$ 15,025.  Given that the transaction is considered to be among shareholders, the premium paid  of R$9,698 was recognized by Raízen in Capital Reserves in equity.

The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on September 24, 2014.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
2.1
Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

(a)
Measurement basis

The consolidated financial statements were prepared on the historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments which are measured at fair value.

(b)
Functional currency and presentation currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in the Brazilian Reais (R$), which is the Company's functional currency. The financial statements of each subsidiary included in consolidation are prepared using the currency of the main economic environment in which it operates.   All financial information presented in Brazilian Real has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.

(c)
Judgments, estimates and significant accounting assumptions

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Company’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.

Information about assumptions, estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustment in the year ending March 31, 2014, and  judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

 
·
Note 10 – Acquisition of investments in associates: fair value measured on a provisional basis;
 
·
Note 11 and 12 – Property plant and equipment and intangible assets, including goodwill: management makes estimates to determine their useful lives, for the purposes of depreciation and amortization;
 
·
Note 11 and 12 – Impairment test: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts, including the recoverability of development costs;
 
·
Note 16.b – Recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which tax loss carryforwards can be offset;
 
·
Note 18 - Provision for tax, civil, labor and environmental risks: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources; and

Measurement of fair value

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses, to the extent possible, observable market data. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

 
·
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
·
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
 
·
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in Note 25 – Financial instruments.

2.2.
Basis of Consolidation

2.2.1 Business Combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Company. The cost of an acquisition is the sum of the consideration paid, measured at fair value on the acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Company recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquirer’s net assets. Costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred.

When acquiring a business, management evaluates the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in order to classify and allocate them pursuant to the terms of the agreement, economic circumstances and the conditions at the acquisition date.

Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired. If the consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is recognized as a gain in profit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost, net of any accumulated impairment losses. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination, is allocated at the acquisition date to each of the Company’s cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination, regardless of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are attributed to these units.

2.2.2 Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.

Changes in the Company’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners.

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.

The subsidiaries' financial statements are prepared for the same disclosure period as those of the parent company and use consistent accounting policies.

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Company’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

2.3.
Summary of the significant accounting practices

The accounting practices described below have been applied consistently to the years presented in the consolidated financial statements.

(a)
Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, collection is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be reliably estimated, there is no continuing managerial involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue is measured net of returns, trade discounts, volume rebates, and taxes.

(b)
Transactions in foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currency are translated to the respective functional currency of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences are generally recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate on the transaction date.

(c)
Financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recorded when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

 
(i) 
Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. The Company determines the classification of the financial assets at the time of initial recognition.

Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus, in the case of investments not designated as fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs.
Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, related parties and other financial assets.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification, which may be as follows:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


A financial asset is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held-for-trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

Held-to-maturity financial assets

If the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, such financial assets are classified as held-to-maturity.  Held-to-maturity instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Interest, inflation adjustments, foreign currency variances, and impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss as finance income or expense as incurred.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. The amortized cost is included in the consolidated statement of income as finance income or expense as incurred.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign currency differences on debt instruments, are recognized in OCI and accumulated in the fair value reserve. When an investment is derecognized, the accumulated gain or loss accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss.

Derecognition

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in such transferred financial asset that is created or retained by the Company is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets not classified as fair value through profit or loss, including an interest in an equity-accounted investee, are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes:

 
i.
default or delinquency by a debtor;
 
ii.
restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise;

iii.
indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy;
 
iv.
adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers;
 
v.
the disappearance of an active market for a security; or
 
vi.
observable data indicating that there is measurable decrease in expected cash flows from a group of financial assets.

For an investment in an equity security, objective evidence of impairment includes a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost.

The Company considers evidence of impairment for financial assets measured at amortized cost at both an individual asset and collective level. All individually significant assets are individually assessed for impairment. Those found not to be impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet individually identified. Assets that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment. Collective assessment is carried out by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical information on the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, and makes an adjustment if current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or lesser than suggested by historical trends.

A financial asset or group of financial assets is considered to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence that its value is unrecoverable as the result of one or more events that have taken place since the asset was first recognized (a "loss event") and this loss event affects the estimated future cash flow of the financial assets, or group of financial assets, to an extent that can be reasonably estimated.

An impairment loss is calculated as the difference between an asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account. When the Company considers that there are no realistic prospects of recovery of the asset, the relevant amounts are written off. If the amount of impairment loss subsequently decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognized by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the fair value reserve to profit or loss. The amount reclassified is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortization) and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss. If the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale debt security subsequently increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, then the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss; otherwise, it is reversed through OCI.
 
An impairment loss in respect of an equity-accounted investee is measured by comparing the recoverable amount of the investment with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, and is reversed if there has been a favorable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
The Company classifies financial liabilities on initial recognition into the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and financing and derivatives.

The Company initially recognizes financial liabilities on the date when they are originated, usually the trade date.

Non-derivative financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company's financial liabilities include loans and financing, derivative financial instruments, suppliers and related parties.

Subsequent measurement

Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, which may be as follows:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest, are recognized in profit or loss.

Loans and financing

Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged cancelled, or expire.

 
(iii) 
Offset of financial instruments - net presentation

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

 
(iv) 
Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement
 
The Company holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures in 2014 and 2013.

Derivatives are recognized initially at fair value; any directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Derivatives are classified as fair value hedges to protect against exposure to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized, or unrecognized but committed, or in an identifiable part of such asset, liability or firm commitment, which can be attributed to a specific risk and could affect the results;

(d)
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits and highly liquid investments, with maturities, of 90 days or less from the acquisition date, which are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and subject to insignificant risk of change in fair value. The investments classified in this group, due to their nature, are measured at fair value through profit and loss.

Restricted cash corresponding to investments funds, type LFT, conducted with first class banks, which are maintained according to the BNDES financing, which redemption requires payment of certain parts of that financing.

(e)
Trade accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and adjusted to present value, when applicable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

The company writes off uncollectible trade receivables when collection efforts have been exhausted.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of trade accounts receivable, assessment of collectability based on historical trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers and evaluation of economic conditions.

If the maturity date is less than one year, the accounts receivable are classified as current assets. Otherwise, they are classified as non-current assets.

(f)
Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost principle. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion plus any costs necessary to conclude the sale. Provisions for obsolescence, adjustments to net realizable value items are recorded when necessary.

(g)
Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses are accounted for at the amount effectively paid and are recognized in the profit or loss to the extent their benefits are obtained or when there is no expectation of recovery of the amount paid.

(h)
Investment in associates

The Company’s interests in equity-accounted investees comprise interests in associates.

Associates are those entities in which the Company has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies.
Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method. They are recognized initially at cost, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements

include the Company’s share of the profit or loss and OCI of equity-accounted investees, until the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases.

(i)
Property, plant and equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses, when applicable.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of an asset. The costs of assets constructed by the Company includes material and direct labor costs, any other costs incurred to put the asset in place and condition to operate. Borrowing costs are capitalized as a component of construction in progress, pursuant to IAS 23 using the weighted average interest rate of the Company’s debt at the date of capitalization.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.
 
Subsequent expenditures relating to the removal of fuel storage tanks and to the analysis of potential soil contamination are estimated and accounted for as part of the costs of these assets against the provision that will cover these expenditures.  These expenditures are included as property, plant and equipment and in noncurrent or current liabilities.  The provisions are accounted for taking into consideration the present value of these obligations, discounted at a risk-free rate of interest.
 

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognized in profit or loss.

The estimated useful lives and the average annual rate of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

 
Useful lives
 
Average annual rate
 
         
Buildings and improvements
25 years
    3.99 %
Property, plant and equipment
10 to 20 years
    6.53 %
Vehicles
5 to 20 years
    6.09 %
Furniture, fixtures and computer equipment
4 to 10 years
    13.66 %


Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted as appropriate.

The gains or losses from disposals are determined as the difference between the proceeds and the net carrying value and are recognized in “Other operating income, net” in the statement of income.

(j)
Intangibles

 
(i)
Goodwill

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
Goodwill is the positive difference between the amount paid and/or payable for the acquisition of a business and the net amount of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary acquired. Goodwill on the acquisition of subsidiaries is recorded as an intangible asset. If the acquisition involves a bargain purchase, the amount is registered as a gain in profit or loss on the acquisition date.

Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill arising from the acquisition of subsidiaries is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. For impairment testing, goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGUs”) or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

 
(ii)
Intangible assets with defined useful lives

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

Amortization is calculated to write off the cost of intangible assets less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognized in profit or loss. Goodwill is not amortized.

The estimated useful lives and the average annual rate of amortization are as follows:

 
 
Useful lives
 
Average annual rate
 
         
Software licenses
5 years
    20 %
Trademarks
10 years
    10 %
Contractual relationship with customers
25 years
    4 %
Rights of exclusivity of supply
8 to 10 years
    12 %
Others (*)
no useful lives
    10 %

 (*) Amortization based on the volume sold.

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
 
 
Supply exclusivity rights

Payments to customers are recognized in “Supply exclusivity rights” (Note 12) and are contingent upon the terms relating to the performance to be achieved by customers, in particular the demand for volumes set forth in supply agreements. To the extent that contractual conditions are met, these amounts are amortized and recognized in profit or loss, "Sales returns and rebates" (Note 21) as they are considered sales incentive payments, and are therefore deducted from revenue.

Contractual relationships with customers

Contractual relationships with customers, acquired in a business combination, are recognized at fair value on the acquisition date.  Contractual relationships with customers have a finite useful life and are

accounted for at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the customer relationship.

(k)
Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is 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 no impairment loss had been recognized.

As of March 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company has not identified any indications of impairment in property, plant and equipment.

(l)
Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, formalized or not, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and its amount can be reliably estimated.

Provision for tax, civil and labor risks

The Company is party to various lawsuits, including, tax, labor and civil claims. The assessment of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in these lawsuits includes the analysis of the available evidence, the hierarchy of the laws, available former court decisions, the most recent court decisions and their importance to the Brazilian legal system, as well as the opinion of external legal counsel. The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the circumstances, such as applicable statutes of

limitations, conclusions of tax inspections or additional exposures identified based on new claims or court decisions.

(m)
Employee benefits

The Company have a private plan for defined contribution (Raizprev) for all of the employees. The Company does not have a legal or construction obligation of paying additional contributions if the fund does not have enough assets to pay all the benefits due.

The Company recognizes a liability and an expense for profit sharing based on a methodology that takes into account previously set goals for employees. The Company recognizes a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

(n)
Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. It is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in OCI.

(i) Current tax

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.

Income taxes in Brazil, are comprised of corporate income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution (“CSLL”), which are calculated monthly on taxable income, at the rate of 15% plus 10% surtax for IRPJ, and 9% for CSLL, considering the offset of tax loss carryforwards, up to the limit of 30% of annual taxable income.

Management periodically assesses the positions taken by the Company in calculating income tax in situations where the applicable tax regulations are open to interpretation, and makes provisions, when appropriate, based on the estimated amounts payable to the tax authorities.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for:

 
·
Temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;
 
·
Temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
 
·
Any resulting deferred tax liability on taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. For this purpose, the carrying amount of investment property measured at fair value is presumed to be recovered through sale, and the Company has not rebutted this presumption.

(o)
Environmental matters

The Company mitigates the risks associated with environmental matters by means of operating procedures and controls as well as investments in pollution control equipment and systems. The Company recognized a provision for environmental losses to the extent that the environmental damage caused should be remediated.

(p)
Capital and shareholders’ compensation

Capital corresponds to the value obtained in the issuance of common and preferred shares. Additional costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of taxes effects.

Class A preferred shares, like common shares, entitle the holder to one vote on resolutions at the Company general meetings, and to a fixed annual dividend of R$0.01 (one cent).

Class B and C preferred comprise shares issued by the Company intended as reimbursement for assets, represented mainly by tax benefits, contributed by the shareholders Cosan and Shell, to the extent they are used by the Company.

The declaration of dividends and interest on shareholders’ equity made by the Company’s Management, to the extent of the mandatory minimum dividend, is recorded in current liabilities, as it represents a legal obligation provided for in the Company’s bylaws.  Dividends that exceed the mandatory minimum dividend, declared by management before the reporting date, not yet approved by the shareholders, is recorded as an additional dividend proposed in shareholders’ equity.

For financial statement presentation purposes, interest on shareholders’ equity is recorded as an allocation of income directly in shareholders’ equity.

2.4.
Adoption of new IFRS and IFRIC Interpretations (International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee) applicable to the consolidated financial statements.

New accounting pronouncements of the IASB and interpretations of the IFRIC have been published and/or revised. The most relevant of these for the Company are the following:

 
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments - Classification and Measurement

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


IFRS 9 deals with the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and liabilities. IFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010, and substitutes parts of IAS 39 relating to the classification and measurement of financial instruments. IFRS 9 requires that financial assets be classified in two categories: measured at fair value and measured at amortized cost. The category is determined at the time of initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity's business model and the contractual characteristics of the cash flow of the financial instruments. The standard maintains most of the requirements of IAS 39 in respect of financial liabilities.  The main change is that in cases where the fair value option is adopted for financial liabilities, the portion of change in fair value that is due to the credit risk of the entity itself is registered in other comprehensive income instead of in the statement of income, except when this results in an accounting mismatch. The Company is assessing the impact of IFRS 9. The standard is applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015.

 
IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On 28 May 2014, was issued the IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers which outlines a single comprehensive model of accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, which is found currently across several standards and Interpretations within IFRSs. The core principle is that an entity recognizes revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services, measured as the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. However, the new Standard does not apply to transactions that are instead within the scope of leasing standard.

The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017, with earlier application permitted. Entities can choose to apply the Standard retrospectively our use a modified approach in the year of application. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard on the financial statements.
 
 
IFRIC 21 – Levies

In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21, which provides guidance on when an entity should recognize a liability for a levy in accordance with laws and/or regulations in its financial statements, except for income taxes.  The obligation should only be recognized when the event that triggers such obligation occurs.  IFRIC 21 is an interpretation of IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. IAS 37 establishes criteria for the recognition of a liability, one of which is the requirement that the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, known as the obligating event.  IFRIC 21 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after January 1, 2014.  The Company does not expect the adoption of IFRIC 21 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

There are no other IFRS standards or IFRIC interpretations that have been issued and not yet adopted that might, in the opinion of Management, have a significant impact on the results or the equity disclosed by the Company.

Impairment analysis

As described in Note 2.3 (k), the Company reviews property, plant and equipment for impairment at least once a year, in order to identify possible indications of loss.

The Company determines recoverable value by the value in use method, based on projections of discounted cash flows from the cash generating units.

The value in use is estimated based on the present value of future cash flows, according to the Company's best estimates. Cash flows from the continued use of the related assets are adjusted for specific risks, and are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate.  This rate is derived from the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC).

As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not identified any indications of impairment in property, plant and equipment.  Therefore, no impairment losses have been recognized for property, plant and equipment in the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Analysis of impairment of cash generating units containing goodwill

The Company performed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill based on the value in use, as determined using the discounted cash flow model, based on the allocation of goodwill and intangible assets to the cash generating units (Note 2.3 [k]).

The Company also reviews for annual impairment analysis the long term non-financial assets which are not subject to amortization.

To determine the recoverable amount, the value in use is based on management’s discounted cash flow forecasts for the cash generating unit (CGU). The Company’s distribution network is considered to be a single CGU as it is managed on an integrated basis.

The discounted cash flows were prepared for a period of 5 years, and thereafter in perpetuity without considering any further growth. Cash flows from the continued use of the related assets are adjusted in line with specific risks, and use a pre-tax discount rate. This rate is derived from the after-tax rate of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC).The discount rates vary from 8.5% to 10% p.a.

The main assumptions used in the estimate of the value in use are: future market prices, estimated future growth rates in the business sector and forecasts of GDP growth. All future cash flows were discounted at a rate that reflects specific risks related to the relevant assets in each cash generating unit.

On the basis of the annual tests, no impairment loss for non-financial assets or goodwill was recognized in the years ended March 31, 2014 or 2013. Determination of the recoverability of assets depends on certain key assumptions, as described above.  These assumptions are influenced by market and technological and economic conditions existing at the time of the test, and so it is impossible to ascertain whether impairment losses will occur in the future or, if they do, whether they will be material.

Estimated time of realization

Deferred tax arising from temporary differences will be realized as they are settled or realized. Tax loss carryforwards do not expire; however, the use of prior-year accumulated losses is limited to 30% of annual taxable income. The period of the settlement or realization of such differences would not be properly estimated and is tied to several factors that are not under control of the Management.

When assessing the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets on income tax loss carryforwards and negative calculation bases of social contribution, Management considers the Company’s budget, strategic plan and projected taxable income. Based on this estimate, Management believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax will be realized, as shown below:

(b)
Preferred shares payable

The tax benefits arising from the use of income tax losses and social contribution negative bases generated by Shell before the Company’s organization, as well as the tax benefits arising from the tax amortization of goodwill relating to Cosan’s contribution, and tax benefits arising from the utilization of PIS and CONFIS contributed by Fix Investimentos Ltda. are to be reimbursed to shareholders to the extent that the Company uses them to reduce the amount of taxes payable.

In order to compensate shareholders through the payment of dividends  of the tax benefits used by the Company during each calendar year, the Company issued Class B preferred shares exclusively to Cosan and Fix, and Class C preferred shares exclusively to Shell.

Therefore, on June 1, 2011, the Company recognized an obligation to Shell and Cosan,  of R$500,791 and R$196,440, respectively, determined by the sum of the aforementioned tax benefits, against “Preferred shares” in equity.

On March 31, 2012, the Company used the amount of R$86,566 of these tax benefits, of which R$20,818 was paid to Cosan, through the prepayment of dividends, and the remaining balance is accrued as dividends payable, being R$30,454 to Shell and R$35,294 to Cosan. The remaining balance of preferred shares payable to Shell and Cosan totaled R$470,337 and R$140,328, respectively, calculated as the sum of the aforementioned tax benefits, against “Preferred shares” in equity.

In the year ended on March 31, 2013, the Company used the amount of R$143,560 relating to these tax benefits, of which R$83,057 was paid to Shell and R$60,503 to Cosan. Due to the review of the opening balance of tax benefits to be reimbursed, changes  of R$15,783 were made with respect to Shell and (R$10,931) to Cosan. Therefore, as of March 31, 2013, the remaining balance of preferred shares payable to Shell and Cosan totaled R$371,497 and R$90,756, respectively.

In the year ended on March 31, 2014, the Company used the amount of R$188,296 relating to these tax benefits, of which R$127,358 was paid to Shell, R$60,503 to Cosan, and R$ 435 to Fix. As of March 31, 2014, the remaining balance of preferred shares payable to Shell, Cosan and Fix totaled R$244,139 and R$30,253 and R$ 435, respectively, recognized in shareholders' equity, in capital stock.

This note provides information about the exposure of each of the aforementioned risks, as well as to the objectives, practices and processes used to measure and manage them.  Additionally, this note provides information regarding the Company’s management of capital.

(b)
Risk management framework

The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The board of directors has established the Risk Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Company’s risk management policies. The committee reports regularly to the board of directors on its activities.

The Company’s risk management, treasury and trading policies are set to identify and analyze the risks faced by the company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adhere to limits. Risk management policies and systems are revised regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities.

The Company is exposed to market risks due to the volatility of interest and foreign exchange rates. The contracting of financial instruments for hedging purposes is made based on an analysis of the exposure to the risk that management intends to cover.

On March 31, 2014 and 2013, the derivative instruments for hedging or other purposes were measured at fair value using observable inputs, such as prices quoted in active markets or discounted cash flows based on market curves as follows:

(e)
Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises mainly from the Company’s receivables from customers and investments in debt securities.

A significant portion of sales made by the Company is to a selected group of best-in-class counterparties, i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains.

Credit risk is managed through specific parameters for client acceptance, analysis of credit and setting of limits of exposure per customer, including the requirement of a letter of credit from prime banks and obtaining of real guarantees, when applicable. Management believes that the credit risk is substantially covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The individual risk limits are determined based on internal classifications in accordance with the limits set by the Company’s Management. The use of credit limits is monitored regularly. No credit limit was exceeded during the year, and Management does not expect any default losses on these counterparties above the amount already accrued.

The Company contracts currency swap derivatives with selected counterparties. Intercompany derivatives between Raízen Energia and Raízen Combustíveis were registered with BM&FBOVESPA through the intermediation of a brokerage company.

Guarantee margins – Derivative operations require an initial guarantee margin. Brokers with whom the Company operates on exchanges offer credit limits for these margins. On March 31, 2014, the total initial margin required is R$14,823 (R$6,926 in 2013) through Investment Fund Quotas in guarantee and R$37,956 (R$23,929 in 2013) in Bank Certificates of Deposit of prime banks (Note 4). The Company’s derivative transactions on the over-the-counter market do not require a guarantee margin.

The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and investment funds (Note 3), is distributed among the main national and international banks rated by international risk rating agencies as Investment Grade.

(f)
Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as much as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date:

(g)
Fair Value

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities refers to the amount at which the instrument can be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties and not in a forced sale or settlement transaction. The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described below.
 
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables, amounts due to/from related parties, and other short-term payables approximates their carrying values mainly due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of other long-term assets and liabilities do not substantially differ from their carrying values.
 
The fair value of loans and financing mainly approximates their carrying values since these financial instruments are subject to floating interest rates (Note 14). The fair value of tradable Senior Notes is based on price quotations at the financial statements date. On March 31, 2014, the fair value of Senior Notes maturing in 2014 (Note 14) corresponds to 103.0% of its face value (109.9% in 2013).
 
The fair value of available-for-sale financial assets is obtained from prices quoted in active markets, as applicable.

The Company contracts derivatives from various counterparties, mainly financial institutions rated as investment grade. Derivatives measured using valuation techniques based on observable market inputs mainly include interest rate swaps, currency forward contracts and forward commodities contracts. The valuation techniques more frequently applied include forward and swap contract pricing models, calculated at present value. The models incorporate various data, including the credit quality of the counterparties, spot and forward exchange rates, interest rate curves and forward price curves of the underlying commodity.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Particularly related to the disclosure, the Company applies the hierarchy requirements set out in IFRS 13, which involves the following aspects:

 
·
The fair value is the price that an asset could be exchanged and a liability could be settled, between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction; and
 
·
Hierarchy on 3 levels for measurement of the fair value, according to observable inputs for the valuation of an asset or liability on the date of its measurement.

The valuation established on 3 levels of hierarchy for measurement of the fair value is based on observable and non-observable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while non-observable inputs reflect the Company’s valuation techniques. These two types of inputs create the hierarchy of fair value set forth below:

 
·
Level 1 – Prices quoted (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
 
·
Level 2 – Prices quoted in active markets for similar instruments, prices quoted for identical or similar instruments in non-active markets and evaluation models for which inputs are observable; and
 
·
Level 3 – Instruments whose significant inputs are non-observable.

The table below presents the overall classification of financial assets and liabilities according to the valuation hierarchy.

Sensitivity analysis

The following analysis is a sensitivity analysis of the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with the risk types considered relevant by the Company.

Assumptions for sensitivity analysis

The Company adopted, for the sensitivity analysis, three scenarios, being one probable, and another two stressed scenarios that may affect the fair value of financial instruments of the Company. The probable scenario takes into account the future market curves of Jet and Dollar on March 31, 2014 and 2013 that determines the derivatives fair value on the mentioned date. The stressed scenarios were defined taking into consideration the adverse impacts of 25% and 50% on Dollar curves, which were considered as the basis for the probable scenario.

Net exposure to US dollar fluctuations

Based on the US dollar-denominated assets and liabilities as at March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company simulation involves the appreciation and depreciation of exchange rates (R$/USD) by 25% and 50%. The probable scenario takes into consideration the Company’s projections for exchange rates on the maturity of transactions as follows:

presence of the Shell brand and products in the three states of the South region, as well as improving supply and logistics to existing gas stations, especially in upstate Rio Grande do Sul.

Syndicated Loan

On April 8, 2014, the Company entered into a loan Contract in the form of a Syndicated Loan for US$ 350,000 thousand, indexed quarterly by Libor plus a fixed interest rate of 1.4% per year, maturing in March 2018 and 2019.

Formation of Sabor Raiz Alimentação S.A.

On April 29, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with Sapore, a food and meal provider, in order to start a new partnership – Sabor Raiz Alimentação S.A – to invest in food and convenience stores at gas stations along highways. On May 29, 2014, approval for this partnership was granted by the antitrust authority, CADE.

Settlement of loan (“Senior Notes”)

On May 9, 2014, the Company settled the Senior Noted due 2014 for principal of US$ 350,000 thousand plus interest of US$ 16,084 thousand.

Conversion of Provisional measure “MP 627/2013” into Law 12.973/2014

Law 12.973 was enacted on May 14th 2014 relating to the conversion of the Provisional Measure 627/2013 which among other arrangements: (i) includes amendments to Ordinance N°1.598/77 which provides tax treatment for corporations, and alters legislation for social contribution tax; (ii) establishes that changes to accounting standards issued subsequent to the announcement of this law, will not impact the calculation of federal taxes until the tax law regulates such change; (iii) establishes specific treatment for the taxation of revenues or dividends calculated between 1/1/2008 and 31/12/2013; (iv) provides for the calculation of interest on capital; and (v) covers the taxation on equity method investments.

Although Law 12.973 is effective from January 1st 2015, there is an option for Companies to retrospectively apply the changes from January 1st 2014, which, according to the Normative Statement RFB N° 1.469/2014, must be declared by July 21st 2014.

Based on management’s analysis, the Company is not likely to opt for application of the law from 2014 and therefore does not expect any significant impacts on these financial statements.

Dividends

On July 28, 2014, the Extraordinary  General Meeting (“EGM”), approved the payment of dividends to the  common share stockholders  in proportion of the shares held by them in the amount of R$ 246,105,  to be paid until October 31, 2014.

At the same EGM, dividends  payment to the  common share stockholders  of  class B preferred shares (Shell Brazil Holding BV) and class C (Cosan S/A Indústria e Comércio), were approved in the amount of R$ 75,630 and R$ 164,779 , respectively, which were paid on July 29, 2014.

1.
Operations

Raízen Energia S.A. (the "Company", "Raízen Energia" or "RESA"), formerly Cosan S.A. Açúcar e Álcool, is a Brazilian Non-Public Corporation with its headquarters in the city and state of São Paulo, Brazil. The Company is listed in the Brazilian securities regulator, the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (“CVM”), although its common shares are not listed on any stock market. The Company is a joint venture ("JV") between Royal Dutch Shell ("Shell") and Cosan S.A. Indústria e Comércio ("Cosan"), with each partner holding 50% of the common shares.

Until November 30, 2012, the Company was a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Raízen Energia Participações S.A. ("REPSA"), at which time REPSA was merged into the Company.

The main business activities of the Company and its subsidiaries are the production and trading of sugar and ethanol in Brazil and overseas (where it operates through Raízen Trading LLP) and the cogeneration of energy produced from sugarcane bagasse.

Sugarcane requires a period of from 12 to 18 months for the crop to be ready for harvest. The harvest generally begins in April or May each year and ends in November or December, at which time sugar and ethanol is produced.  The product is sold throughout the year, with no seasonal variations, subject to normal market variations in supply and demand.  Due to its production cycle, the Company's fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31 of each year.

On October 21, 2013, the CVM approved the registration of the Company’s first public issuance of non-convertible debentures, in three series, with a unit par value of R$ 1,000.00 (one thousand reais), in a total amount of R$ 750,000, with maturities of five years for the first and second series and seven years for the third series, beginning on October 15, 2013.  The debentures are guaranteed by Raízen Combustíveis S.A. (“RCSA”), which is another joint venture also owned by Shell and Cosan.

Corporate restructuring

In June 1st, 2011, Shell and Cosan approved and announced the formation of the JV, whereby the economic interest in REPSA was equally shared amongst both shareholders.  As part of this process, Cosan contributed to REPSA, the net assets of its sugar and ethanol business (including its interest in RESA) and Shell contributed its interest in second generation ethanol research and development entities (Iogen Corp. and Codexis Inc.). In addition, Shell was committed to make fixed cash contributions of USD 1.2 billion, of which US$ 721 million were paid during the financial year ended March 31, 2012. During the year ended March 31, 2013, the remaining balance of US$ 542.5 million of this contribution, adjusted for interest, has been fully received. Thus, at the end of this operation, the capital increase made by Shell and Cosan in REPSA was R$6,187,138.

In November 2012, the shareholders approved at an “Extraordinary General Meeting” the merger of Ispagnac Participações Ltda. ("IPL"), a direct subsidiary of Shell, into REPSA, through the transfer of net assets  of R$ 3,538, including its direct 28.1% interest in REPSA. The following is a breakdown of the net assets transferred:

Subsequently, at an “Extraordinary General Meeting” held in November 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved the merger of REPSA, including IPL’s net assets, into its subsidiary RESA, through the transfer of net assets amounting to R$ 998,835, as follows:

Significant accounting policies

2.1
Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

a)
Measurement basis

The consolidated financial statements were prepared using the historical cost basis, except for the following items which are measured at fair value:

 
·
Derivatives and other financial instruments, measured at fair value through profit or loss;
 
·
Employee benefits, and
 
·
Biological assets.

b)
Functional currency and presentation currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian Reais (R$), which is the Company's functional currency.  The financial statements of each subsidiary included in consolidation are prepared using the currency of the main economic environment where it operates.   All financial information presented in Brazilian Reais has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except where otherwise indicated.

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Brazilian Reais using the following criteria: (i) assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the reporting date; (ii) the income and expenses are translated based on the monthly average exchange rates, and (iii) the cumulative effects of translation differences are recognized in Accumulated Foreign Currency Translation Adjustments component in Other comprehensive income.

The exchange rates in Brazilian Reais effective at the balance dates were as follows:

Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Information about assumptions, estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustment in the year ending March 31, 2014, and information about critical judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

 
·
Note 11 – Acquisition of subsidiary, investments in associates and joint ventures: fair value measured on a provisional basis;

 
·
Note 13 and 14 – Property plant and equipment and intangible assets, including goodwill: management makes estimates to determine their useful lives, for the purposes of depreciation and amortization;

 
·
Note 13 and 14 – Impairment test: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts, including the recoverability of development costs;

 
·
Note 18.a – Income tax and social contribution: significant judgment is needed to determine the provision for income tax in these different countries;

 
·
Note 18.b – Recognition of deferred tax assets: availability of future taxable profit against which tax loss carryforwards can offset;

 
·
Note 19 - Provision for tax, civil, labor and environmental risks: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of outflow of resources; and

 
·
Note 28 – Post employment plans: key actuarial assumptions.

Measurement of fair value

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses, to the extent possible, observable market data.  Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

 
·

2.2       Basis of Consolidation

2.2.1 Business Combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Company. The cost of an acquisition is the sum of the consideration paid, evaluated based on the fair value at acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree.  For each business combination, the Company recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquirer’s net assets. Costs directly attributable to the acquisition expensed as incurred.

When acquiring a business, management evaluates the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in order to classify and allocate them pursuant to the terms of the agreement, economic circumstances and the conditions at the acquisition date.

Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired.  If the consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is recognized as a gain in profit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost, net of any accumulated impairment losses.  For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination, is allocated at the acquisition date to each of the Company’s cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination, regardless of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are attributed to these units.

2.2.2 Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.

Changes in the Company’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners.

2.2.3 Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.

The subsidiaries' financial statements are prepared for the same disclosure period as those of the parent company and use consistent accounting policies.

2.2.4 Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Company’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

2.3
Summary of the significant accounting practices

The accounting practices described below have been applied consistently to the years presented in the consolidated financial statements.

a)
Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, collection is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.  Revenue is measured net of returns, trade discounts, volume rebates, and taxes.

Sales of energy cogeneration are recorded on the basis of the energy guaranteed, at the prices specified under the supply agreement or at the current market price, as the case may be. Electrical energy produced and sold at auction is recognized initially as deferred revenue, and is recognized in profit or loss for the year when consumed by customers.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
b)
Transactions in foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currency are translated to the respective functional currency of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value is determined.  Foreign currency differences are generally recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following item is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income:

 
·
qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges  are effective.

c)
Financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recorded when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

(i) Financial Assets

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. The Company determines the classification of the financial assets at the time of initial recognition.

Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus, in the case of investments not designated as fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs.

Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, derivative financial instruments, trade accounts receivable, related parties and other financial assets.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification, which may be as follows:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A financial asset is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held-for-trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

Derivatives also are measured at fair value through profit or loss, except for those designated as hedging instruments.  Interest, monetary and foreign exchange variations and variations resulting from measurement at fair value are recognized in profit or loss as incurred as "Financial income".

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Held-to-maturity financial assets

If the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, such financial assets are classified as held-to-maturity.  Held-to-maturity instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Interest, inflation adjustments, foreign currency variances, and impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss as finance income or expense as incurred.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. The amortized cost is included in the consolidated statement of income as finance income or expenses as incurred.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign currency differences on debt instruments, are recognized in OCI and accumulated in the fair value reserve.  When an investment is derecognized, the accumulated gain or loss accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss.

Derecognition

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in such transferred financial asset that is created or retained by the Company is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets not classified as fair value through profit or loss, including an interest in an equity-accounted investee, are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes:

 
i.
default or delinquency by a debtor;

 
ii.
restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise;

 
iii.
indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy;

 
iv.
adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers;

 
v.
the disappearance of an active market for a security; or

 
vi.
observable data indicating that there is measurable decrease in expected cash flows from a group of financial assets.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
For an investment in an equity security, objective evidence of impairment includes a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost.

The Company considers evidence of impairment for financial assets measured at amortized cost at both an individual asset and a collective level. All individually significant assets are individually assessed for impairment. Those found not to be impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet individually identified. Assets that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment. Collective assessment is carried out by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical information on the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, and makes an adjustment if current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or lesser than suggested by historical trends.

A financial asset or group of financial assets is considered to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence that its value is unrecoverable as the result of one or more events that have taken place since the asset was first recognized (a "loss event") and this loss event affects the estimated future cash flow of the financial assets, or group of financial assets, to an extent that can be reasonably estimated.

An impairment loss is calculated as the difference between an asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account. When the Company considers that there are no realistic prospects of recovery of the asset, the relevant amounts are written off. If the amount of impairment loss subsequently decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognized by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the fair value reserve to profit or loss. The amount reclassified is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortization) and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss. If the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale debt security subsequently increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized, then the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss; otherwise, it is reversed through OCI.

An impairment loss in respect of an equity-accounted investee is measured by comparing the recoverable amount of the investment with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, and is reversed if there has been a favorable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

(ii)       Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company classifies financial liabilities on initial recognition into the following categories: financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and financing and derivatives.

RAÍZEN ENERGIA S.A.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
The Company initially recognizes financial liabilities on the date when they are originated, usually the trade date.

Non-derivative financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company's financial liabilities include loans and financing, derivative financial instruments, suppliers and related parties.

Subsequent measurement

Subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, which may be as follows:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest, are recognized in profit or loss.

Loans and financing

Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled, or expire.

(iii)           Offset of financial instruments - net presentation

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(iv)           Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures.

Derivatives are recognized initially at fair value; any directly attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are generally recognized in profit or loss.

Derivatives are classified as:

 
·
Fair value hedge to protect against exposure to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized, or unrecognized but committed, or in an identifiable part of such asset, liability or firm commitment, which can be attributed to a specific risk and could affect the results;

 
·
Cash flow hedge to protect against changes in cash flows attributable to a specific risk associated with a recognized asset or liability, or with a proposed transaction that is likely to take place, and which could affect the results; or

 
·
Net investment hedge in a foreign operating unit.

Upon the initial recognition of a hedge relationship, the Company makes a formal classification and documents the hedge relationship to which it intends to apply hedge accounting, and the purpose and risk management strategy used by Management for hedging purposes.

The documentation includes the identification of the hedge instrument, the item or transaction to which it applies, the nature of the risk hedged, details of the anticipated effectiveness of the hedge relationship and the way in which the Company will assess the effectiveness of the hedging instrument in offsetting the exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged item or the cash flows related to it. In the case of cash flow hedges, a demonstration that the proposed transaction to be hedged is likely to take place, and the anticipated timing of transfer of gains or losses on the hedging instruments from  equity to the statement of income, are also included in the documentation of the hedge relationship.

It is expected that such hedges will be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or in cash flows, and they are assessed on an on-going basis to confirm that this is the case throughout all the base periods to which they apply.

Hedges that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are recorded as follows:

Cash flow hedge

When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in OCI and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

The amount accumulated in equity is retained in OCI and reclassified to profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects profit or loss. When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or liability, the amounts in OCI are transferred to the initial carrying value of the non-financial asset or liability.

If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss.

The Company uses forward exchange contracts to protect against its exposure to exchange risk related to anticipated and highly probable future transactions and to firm commitments, and forward commodities contracts to protect against its exposure to volatility in commodity prices(Note 27).

d)
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits and highly liquid investments, with maturities of 90 days or less from the acquisition date which are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and subject to insignificant risk of change in fair value.  The investments classified in this group, due to their nature, are measured at fair value through profit and loss.

Restricted cash corresponding to investments funds, type LFT, conducted with first class banks, which are maintained according to the BNDES financing, which redemption requires payment of certain parts of that financing.

e)
Trade accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and adjusted to present value, when applicable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables when collection efforts have been exhausted.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through the aging of trade accounts receivable and assessment of collectability based on historical trends, the financial conditions of the Company’s customers and evaluations of economic conditions.

If the maturity date is less than one year, the accounts receivable are classified as current assets. Otherwise, they are classified as non-current assets.

f)
Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value based on the weighted average cost principle.

Finished goods and work in process costs comprise the project costs, raw material, direct labor, other direct costs and relevant direct production costs (based on usual production capacity), excluding the costs of loans.  The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion plus any costs necessary to conclude the sale.

Sugarcane at the time of harvesting is considered to be an agricultural product and is measured at fair value, less selling expenses, based on the quantities harvested valued at the accumulated CONSECANA (Conselho dos Produtores de Cana-de-açúcar, Açúcar e Álcool do Estado de São Paulo) price for the corresponding month. The fair value of sugarcane harvested becomes the cost of raw materials used in the sugar and ethanol production process.

Provisions for slow moving or obsolete inventories are recorded when necessary.

g)
Investments in associates and joint ventures

The Company’s interests in equity-accounted investees comprise interests in associates and a joint ventures.

Associates are those entities in which the Company has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Company has joint control, whereby the Company has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Interests in associates and the joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. They are recognized initially at cost, which includes transaction costs.  In addition to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include the Company’s share of the profit or loss and OCI of equity-accounted investees, until the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases.

h)
Biological assets

In accordance with IAS 41, the Company recognizes biological assets (sugarcane plantations) when it controls these assets as a result of a past event, it is probable that their future economic benefits will flow to the Company and fair value can be reliably estimated.

The cane crop is measured at fair value, excluding the land on which it is planted, by the discounted cash flow method.

Harvesting generally begins in April of each year, and ends in November or December.

For sugarcane, the Company uses projected future cash flows according to the production cycle forecast for each harvest, taking into account the estimated useful life of each plantation, the prices for total recoverable sugar, estimated productivity and the estimated costs of production, harvesting, loading and transport for each hectare planted.

Changes in fair value from year to year are allocated to the cost of products sold.

Any land owned by the Company and its subsidiaries on which the biological assets are produced is classified as property, plant and equipment in the books.

i)
Property, plant and equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost of acquisition or construction, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, when applicable.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of an asset.  The costs of assets constructed by the Company includes material and direct labor costs and any other costs incurred to put the asset in place and condition to operate.  Borrowing costs are capitalized as a component of construction in progress, pursuant to IAS 23 using the weighted average interest rate of the Company’s debt at the date of capitalization.

The Company performs scheduled maintenance activities on their facilities on a yearly basis, usually, from January through March, for the purpose of inspecting and replacing components.  Primary maintenance costs include labor, materials, contractor costs and overhead expenses allocated during the inter-harvest season.  Costs are capitalized as parts and components, in property, plant and equipment, being fully amortized in the next harvest season.

The cost of equipment that need to be replaced every year is recorded as part of the equipment cost and depreciated over the next harvest season.  Regular maintenance costs are accounted as expenses when incurred since replaced components do not enhance crushing capacity nor introduce any improvements to equipment.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognized in profit or loss.

10.05 years
    9.95 %

The Company opted not to value property, plant and equipment at deemed cost on the transition date to IFRS on April 1st, 2009.

The gains or losses from disposals are determined as the difference between the proceeds and the net carrying value and are recognized in “Other operating income, net” in the statement of income.

j)
Leasing

At inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease.

Assets held by the Company under leases that transfer to the Company substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. The leased assets are measured initially at an amount equal to the lower of their fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the assets are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Assets held under other leases are classified as operating leases and are not recognized in the Company’s statement of financial position.

Payments made under operating leases are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognized as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease.

k)
Intangible

i) Goodwill

Goodwill is the positive difference between the amount paid and/or payable for the acquisition of a business and the net amount of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary acquired. Goodwill on the acquisition of subsidiaries is recorded as an intangible asset.  If the acquisition involves a bargain purchase, the amount is registered as a gain in profit or loss on the acquisition date.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 
Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill arising from the acquisition of subsidiaries is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually.  For impairment testing, goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGUs”) or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

ii) Intangible assets with defined useful lives

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

Amortization is calculated to write off the cost of intangible assets less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognized in profit or loss.  Goodwill is not amortized.

The estimated useful lives and the average annual rate of amortization are as follows:

Intangible asset
 
Useful lives
 
Average annual rate
 
             
Software licenses
 
5 years
    20 %
Land lease agreements
 
11.11 years
    9 %
Sugarcane supply agreements
 
10 years
    10 %
Right to use public concessions
 
5 years
    20 %
Others
 
2.63 years
    38 %

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

l)
Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets (other than biological assets, inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.  If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.  Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.

For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.  Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. They are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is 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 no impairment loss had been recognized.

As of March 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company has not identified any indications of impairment in property, plant and equipment.

m)
Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, formalized or not, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and its amount can be reliably estimated.

Provision for tax, civil and labor risks

The Company is party to various lawsuits, including, tax, labor and civil claims. The assessment of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in these lawsuits includes the analysis of the available evidence, the hierarchy of the laws, available former court decisions, the most recent court decisions and their importance to the Brazilian legal system, as well as the opinion of external legal counsel.  The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes of circumstances, such as applicable statutes of limitations, conclusions of tax inspections or additional exposures identified based on new claims or court decisions.

n)
Employee benefits

The Company has a defined contribution plan to provide a supplementary private pension for all of its employees.  The Company has no legal or constructive liability for the payment of additional contributions in the event that the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all the benefits due.

The Company recognizes a liability and a profit sharing expense on the basis of a system that takes pre-assigned targets for its employees into account. The Company records a provision when it is contractually liable, or when there is a precedent that has created a constructive obligation.

o)
Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in OCI.

(i) Current tax

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.

Income taxes in Brazil, are comprised of corporate income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution (“CSLL”), which are calculated monthly on taxable income, at the rate of 15% plus 10% surtax for IRPJ, and 9% for CSLL, considering the offset of tax loss carryforwards, up to the limit of 30% of annual taxable income.

The income from foreign subsidiaries is subject to taxation of their jurisdictions, pursuant to the local tax rates and legislation.

Management periodically assesses the positions taken by the Company in calculating income tax in situations where the applicable tax regulations are open to interpretation, and makes provisions, when appropriate, based on the estimated amounts payable to the tax authorities.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for:

 
·
Temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;

 
·
Temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and

 
·
Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. For this purpose, the carrying amount of investment property measured at fair value is presumed to be recovered through sale, and the Company has not rebutted this presumption.


p)
Capital and shareholders’ compensation

Capital corresponds to the value obtained in the issuance of common and preferred shares. Additional costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of taxes effects.

Class A preferred shares, like common shares, entitles the holder to one vote on resolutions at the Company general meetings, and to a fixed annual dividend of R$ 0.01 (one cent).

Class B and C preferred comprise shares issued by the Company intended as reimbursement for assets, represented mainly by tax benefits to be used by the Company contributed by the shareholders Cosan and Shell.  The Company redeems the preferred shares as the tax benefits are used.

The declaration of dividends and interest on shareholders’ equity made by the Company’s Management, to the extent of the mandatory minimum dividend, is recorded in current liabilities, as it represents a legal obligation provided for in the Company’s bylaws.  Dividends that exceed the mandatory minimum dividend, declared by management before the reporting date, not yet approved by the shareholders, is recorded as an additional dividend proposed in shareholders’ equity.

For financial statement presentation purposes, interest on shareholders’ equity is recorded as an allocation of income directly in shareholders’ equity.

q)
Segment Information

An operating segment is a component of the Company that carries out business activities from which it generates revenues and incurs expenses, including revenues and expenses arising from intercompany transactions.  The operating segments reflect how the Company’s management reviews financial information to make decisions.

The Company has a single business segment: Ethanol, Sugar and Bioenergy, as indicated in Note 23.
 
r)
Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the holders of common shares of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the holders of common shares of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares during the year, after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares.

2.4
Adoption of new IFRS and IFRIC Interpretations (International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee) applicable to the consolidated financial statements.

New accounting pronouncements of the IASB and interpretations of the IFRIC have been published and/or revised. The most relevant of these for the Company are the following:

 
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments - Classification and Measurement

IFRS 9 deals with the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and liabilities. IFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010, and substitutes parts of IAS 39 relating to the classification and measurement of financial instruments. IFRS 9 requires that financial assets be classified in two categories: measured at fair value and measured at amortized cost. The category is determined at the time of initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity's business model and the contractual characteristics of the cash flow of the financial instruments. The standard maintains most of the requirements of IAS 39 in respect of financial liabilities.  The main change is that in cases where the fair value option is adopted for financial liabilities, the portion of change in fair value that is due to the credit risk of the entity itself is registered in other comprehensive income instead of in the statement of income, except when this results in an accounting mismatch. The Company is assessing the impact of IFRS 9. The standard is applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015.

IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On May 28, 2014, was issued the IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers which outlines a single comprehensive model of accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, which is found currently across several standards and Interpretations within IFRSs. The core principle is that an entity recognizes revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services, measured as the amount to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. However, the new Standard does not apply to transactions that are instead within the scope of leasing standard.

The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1st, 2017, with earlier application permitted. Entities can choose to apply the Standard retrospectively our use a modified approach in the year of application. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard on the financial statements.
 
 
·
IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 41 - Agriculture
 
The IASB published amendments to IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 41 - Agriculture, which directs that for bearer plants, the accounting recognition will be accounted for by the value of training and not at fair value except as to the then existing balance biological assets. Thus, the planting of cane sugar will be valued at their cost of training, but the plant cane, standing at the reporting date, will be valued at fair value. The new rule shall be required in fiscal years beginning on January 1st, 2017 and the IFRS early adoption is permitted. However, in Brazil, the CPC and others regulatory bodies (such as the CVM) has not commented the changes in the corresponding CPC’s or the permission or not for the early adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of these changes on its financial statements.
 
 
IFRIC 21 – Levies

In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21, which provides guidance on when an entity should recognize a liability for a levy in accordance with laws and/or regulations in its financial statements, except for income taxes.  The obligation should only be recognized when the event that triggers such obligation occurs.  IFRIC 21 is an interpretation of IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. IAS 37 establishes criteria for the recognition of a liability, one of which is the requirement that the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, known as the obligating event.  IFRIC 21 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after January 1st, 2014.  The Company does not expect the adoption of IFRIC 21 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

There are no other IFRS standards or IFRIC interpretations that have been issued and not yet adopted that might, in the opinion of Management, have a significant impact on the results or the equity disclosed by the Company.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012
(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


The capital increase  of R$ 7,927 (Note 21.a) was received in full in the year ended  March 31, 2014.

In addition, the remaining balance receivable from Cosan represents debit notes for shared expenses of R$ 7,124 (R$ 8,760 in 2013).

The amount registered in consolidated non-current assets refers to liabilities of the Company before the JV was formed, which are to be fully reimbursed by Cosan, when paid, and which represent: i) provisions for legal claims of R$ 196,958  (R$ 248,040 in 2013) (Note 19); ii) installments of tax debts payable, especially Refis IV, of R$ 632,218 (R$ 589,001 in 2013) (Note 17); and iii) other reimbursable liabilities of R$ 110 (R$ 278 in 2013).

In March 31, 2014, the Company reversed the provision of legal fees related to action for indemnity, with no impact on the consolidated income statement, of R$ 44,765 (R$ 44,021 in 2013) as management understands that the liability is a Cosan obligation.

The amount of R$ 36,631 in consolidated current liabilities refers to a payment received from Destivale  of R$ 13,267 (Note 9) regarding an action for indemnity which must be reimbursed to Cosan.  The residual amount of R$ 23,364 (R$ 14,402 in 2013) corresponds to debit notes and financial transfers arising from the formation of the JV.

The amount registered in consolidated non-current liabilities refers to credits from actions for damages and judicial deposits of R$ 456,313 (R$ 366,845 in 2013) (Note 9) and R$ 177,368 (R$ 177,815 in 2013) (Note 19), respectively, existing before the JV was formed, which are to be reimbursed to Cosan when realized, since Cosan did not contribute these credits to the formation of the JV.

Preferred shares – Cosan

The Company also has recorded in non-current liabilities, the amount of tax benefits to be reimbursed to Cosan, when effectively used by the Company, totaling R$ 389,979, representing the balances of tax losses and negative base for social contribution, and tax benefits on the amortization of goodwill, transferred to the Company when REPSA was merged (Notes 1 and 21.a).  Payment is to be made by an exclusive dividend distribution to the holders of Class B preferred shares. Currently, only Cosan holds this class of shares.

On February 28, 2013, the Company made an interim distribution of dividends amounting to R$ 8,873.

On March 31, 2013, the Company proposed to pay an additional sum of R$ 58,004 to holders of Class B preferred shares, making a total for the year of R$ 66,877, corresponding to the partial use of the tax benefit contributed by Cosan when the JV was formed.

On July 19, 2013, the shareholders approved additional preferred shares payment of R$ 6,916. On July 29, 2013, Company paid R$ 64,920 related to the preferred shares.

On March 31, 2014, the Company proposed to pay dividend distribution to the holders of Class B preferred shares  of R$ 43,636, corresponding to the partial used of tax benefit during the fiscal year.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company reviewed the balance of preferred shares outstanding, and determined the reversal of R$ 11,812 of the obligation with Cosan. Therefore, the remaining balance of Class B preferred shares payable to Cosan on March 31, 2014 is R$ 260,738 (R$ 323,102 in 2013).

On March 31, 2014, the amount registered in consolidated current assets is mainly related to: (i) debit notes for overhead expenses shared between the companies of 16,920 (R$ 18,889 in 2013); (ii) receivables from ethanol sales for R$ 23,720 (R$ 80,370 in 2013), and (iii) interest related to advance an export payment agreement due in 2015 of R$ 430 (R$ 392 in 2013).

In addition, the amount in consolidated non-current assets on March 31, 2014, is related to advance an export payment agreement  of US$ 219 million, to be settled on September 7, 2015. The agreement has quarterly payments LIBOR plus annual interest of 1.5% which results in a weighted average rate of 1.73% a year (1.78% in 2013).

At March 31, 2014, R$ 56,777 (R$ 816,874 in 2013) registered in consolidated current liabilities corresponds mainly to: (i) funds received by the Company due to the cash management agreement  of R$ 53,160 (R$ 811,289 in 2013), substantially paid the amount owed to RCSA during the year ended on March 31, 2014, (ii) ethanol commerce  of R$ 3,441 (R$ 5,390 in 2013); and (iii) debit notes for overhead expenses shared between the companies  of R$ 176 (R$ 195 in 2013).

Shell Brazil Holding B.V.

The amount recorded as noncurrent assets relates to the right of the Company to receive shares issued by Iogen, a Canadian company. When the JV was formed, these shares were valued at US$ 109 million, according to a report dated May 31, 2011, issued by an independent specialist company.  As of March 31, 2014, the Company recognized as financial income the amount of R$ 12,516 related to the share fair value variance.

On October 15, 2013, the Company received the 50% of common shares of Iogen from Shell. As the carrying amount of Iogen equity is less than zero, Raízen Energia has not accounted for its share of losses due to the fact that the Company does not have an obligation to fund Iogen operations or make payments on behalf of the JV. The excess of the consideration paid for RESA’s share of the underlying net assets  of R$ 179,876 was recorded as an intangible asset, reflecting the technology to which RESA will have access (Note 14).

Preferred shares – Shell

Due to the Ispagnac Participação  Ltda. (“IPL”) net assets merged into REPSA and, subsequently, merged into Raízen Energia on November 30, 2012, the Company issued preferred Class C shares which will guarantee exclusive dividends to Shell  of R$ 3,538 from tax benefits and cash equivalents that was part of IPL net assets. The amounts of R$ 932 and R$ 2,606 are recorded as current and noncurrent liabilities, respectively.

v)
Iogen Energy Corporation

On October 15, 2013, Raízen Energia received 805,056.5 common shares of Iogen from Shell as a capital contribution pursuant to the shareholders meeting of November 30, 2012.
Iogen was founded in 1978, and is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. The entity was established to hold technology rights related to manufacturing of cellulosic ethanol. Iogen performs research and development activities including the operation of a demonstration plant; however, the entity has not generated any significant revenue from its operations.

Each of Raízen Energia and Iogen Corporation own 50% of common share of the Iogen, and together represent the ultimate controlling party; therefore, the strategic and financial decisions are jointly taken by the two ultimate controlling parties.

Raízen Energia accounts for its investment in Iogen using the equity method from the date that the joint control was obtained.  The excess of the consideration paid for Raízen Energia’s share of the underlying net assets was recorded as an intangible asset, reflecting the technology to which Raízen Energia will have access.

Raízen Energia has not accounted for its share of losses as the Company does not have an obligation to fund Iogen operations or make payments on behalf of the joint venture.

Sugarcane stumps

The cultivated areas represent only the sugarcane plantations, without taking into account the land on which the crops are planted. The following assumptions were used to determine fair value using the discounted cash flow method(parent company and consolidated):

       
   
2014
   
2013
 
             
Estimated area of the harvest (hectare)
    425,708       400,294  
Productivity expected (metric tons of sugarcane, per hectare)
    79.67       85.24  
Amount of TRS (Total Recoverable Sugar)(Kg)
    134.14       136.14  
Price of Kg of projected average TRS (R$/Kg)
    0.49       0.47  
 
Sugar production depends on the volume and sucrose content of the sugarcane grown or supplied by growers located near the Company's plants. The yield of the crop and the sucrose content in the sugarcane depend mainly on climatic conditions, such as the amount of rain and the temperature, which can vary.

(In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)


In the past, climatic conditions have led to volatility in the ethanol and sugar sectors of the Company's operating results by damaging the crops and reducing the yield. Climatic conditions can reduce the amount of sugar and sugarcane that the Company obtains in a specific season, or the sucrose content in the sugarcane. The business is also affected by the growth cycle of sugarcane in the central southern region of Brazil. The annual sugarcane harvest in the central southern region of Brazil starts in April or May and ends in November or December. The seasonality increases the inventory levels, which are generally high in November and December to cover the period between harvests (i.e. from December to April).

Finance leases

On March 31, 2014, the net amount of aircraft, furniture and fittings subject to financial leasing is R$ 6,662 (R$ 8,318 in 2013).

Property, plant and equipment pledged

On March 31, 2014, the loans and financing are secured by land, buildings and machinery  of R$ 2,291,344 (R$ 2,632,163 in 2013).

Impairment analysis

As determined by the accounting policy described in Note 2.3 (k), the Company tests property, plant and equipment for impairment at least once a year, in order to identify possible indications of impairment.

The Company determines recoverable value by the value in use method, based on projections of discounted cash flows from the cash generating units.

This value in use is estimated on the basis of the present value of future cash flows, according to the Company's best estimates. Cash flows from the continued use of the related assets are adjusted for specific risks, and use a pre-tax discount rate. This rate is derived from the after-tax rate of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC).

As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not identified any indications of impairment in property, plant and equipment. Therefore, no significant property, plant and equipment impairment loss was recorded in the years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 or ten month period ended March 31, 2012.

Analysis of impairment of cash generating units containing goodwill

The Company performed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill based on the value in use that was determined by a discounted cash flow model, in accordance with the allocation of goodwill and intangible assets to the cash generating units (Note 2.3 (k)).

Goodwill is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGUs), identified according to the operating region, as follows:

       
Operating region
 
2014
   
2013
 
             
Piracicaba
    138,744       140,077

Assis
    109,840       109,840  
Others
    11,616       11,616  
                 
Total
    1,118,552       1,086,222  

Long term non-financial assets which are not subject to amortization are revised whenever there are indications of impairment.

The Company determines recoverable value by the value in use method (Note 13), which is based on a projection of the expected discounted cash flows from the cash generating units, as determined by Management on the basis of budgets taking into account the assumptions for each CGU, using information available in the market and past performance. The discounted cash flows were prepared for a period of 30 years, without taking into account a growth rate. The discount rates vary from 8.5% to 10% p.a.

 
The main assumptions used were: commodity sales price expectations over the long term, productivity of the agricultural areas, performance of Total Recoverable Sugar (TRS) and operating

and administrative costs. All future cash flows were discounted at a rate that reflects the specific risks applicable to the relevant assets in each cash generating unit.

On the basis of the annual tests, no significant impairment charge against assets or goodwill was recognized in the years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 or ten month period ended March 31, 2012. Determination of the recoverability of assets depends on certain key assumptions, as described above.  These assumptions are influenced by market, technological and economic conditions existing at the time of the test, and so it is not possible to ascertain whether impairment losses will occur in the future or, if they do, whether they will be material.

On May 27 and October 13, 2009, Law 11.941 and MP 470 were sanctioned by the Brazilian government, setting up an amnesty and tax refinancing program (Refis IV), allowing taxpayers to settle federal tax obligations though refinancing programs and including other federal taxes challenged in the courts, with discounts on existing penalties and interest.

According to the JV agreement signed by the shareholders, any payment related to installments of tax obligations existing before June 1st, 2011, is to be repaid in full by Cosan to the Company (Note 10).

Tax incentive - ICMS

Estimated time of realization

Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences will be realized as they are settled or realized. Tax loss carryforwards do not expire; however, the use of prior-year accumulated losses is limited to 30% of annual taxable income. The period of the settlement or realization of such differences would not be properly estimated and is tied to several factors that are not under control of the Management.

When assessing the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets on income tax loss carryforward and negative calculation bases of social contribution, Management considers the Company’s budget, strategic plan and projected taxable income. Based on this estimate, Management believes that it is probable that the deferred tax asset will be realized, as shown below:

       
Years:

As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s subsidiaries Curupay Agroenergia Ltda., Agrícola Ponte Alta Ltda., Raízen Biotecnologia S.A. and Unimodal Ltda had accumulated tax losses of R$ 32,422 (R$ 30,403 in 2013) for which no deferred tax assets are recognized, as the use of these losses is not considered probable.

19.
Provision for tax, civil and labor risks

During the process of the formation of the JV (Notes 1 and 21.a), it was agreed that Cosan should reimburse the Company for the amount of lawsuits in progress before its incorporation, when effectively settled by the courts. On March 31, 2014 and 2013, the balances of such claims to be reimbursed and non-reimbursable are as follows:

The tax inspector argues that such product is classified as a semi-finished product which, according to the ICMS regulations, would be subject to taxation; (iii) tax assessments relating to ICMS rate difference arising from sales of ethanol to companies located in other Brazilian states whose state enrollment numbers were subsequently cancelled; (iv) tax assessments relating to credit disallowance from purchase of product from companies that, subsequently, had their registrations revoked and declared ineligible; and (v) payment of ICMS arising from disallowances of credits of diesel fuel used in the agro-industrial production process.

ii)
Possible losses on INSS-related claims mainly involve:

(i) Discussing the validity and constitutionality of MPS/SRP Regulatory Instruction 03/2005, which restricted the constitutional exemption of social security contributions to revenues deriving from exports made exclusively through direct sales, it is understood that exports made through export or trading companies will start to be taxed; (ii) payment of SENAR contribution in direct and indirect export transactions, where the tax authorities understand that there is no right to constitutional exemption; and, (iii) payment of social security contribution on resale of products in the domestic market and to third parties, which is not included in the social security tax basis and which is levied only on the gross revenue deriving from the effective production of the entity rather than on products purchased.

iii)
IPI - Excise tax on manufactured products

Normative Instruction 67/98 of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (SRF) validated the procedure adopted by manufacturing plants which made sales without calculating and paying IPI related to several types of sugarcane sugar, including demerara, higher refined, special refined, special extra refined and granulated refined sugars, from July 6, 1995 through November 16, 1997, as well as amorphous refined sugar sales from January 14, 1992 through November 16, 1997. This rule was put into effect in the related proceedings filed by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service.  The risk of loss was classified as possible based on the opinion of the Company’s legal advisers.

iv)
IRPJ and CSLL

In December 2011, the Company received tax assessment notices issued by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, related to IRPJ and CSLL for calendar years 2006 to 2009, challenging: (i) the deductibility of amortization expenses relating to some specific goodwill; (ii) the offset of tax loss carryforwards and (iii) the tax on differences of revaluations of property, plant and equipment items. The taxes assessments amounted to R$ 551,852 (R$ 433,916 in 2013). The Company submitted its defense in January 2012 and, together with its legal counsel, assessed as possible loss  of R$229,443 (R$ 215,558 in 2013). The remaining balance  of R$ 75,882 (R$ 19,722 in 2013) refers to various other contingencies relating to income tax and social contribution of subsidiaries.

v)
PIS and COFINS

Refer mainly to the disallowances of PIS and COFINS credits under the non-cumulative system, set forth in Laws 10,637/2002 and 10,833/2003, respectively. Such disallowances mainly came from the restrictive interpretation of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service of the concept of "inputs", as well as differences with respect to the interpretation of these laws. The disputes are in the administrative phase.

vi)
Offsets against IPI credits - IN 67/98

Normative Instruction SRF 67/98 made it possible to obtain a refund of IPI tax payments for sales of refined amorphous sugar from January 14, 1992 through November 16, 1997. In view of this rule, RESA offset the amounts paid during the relevant periods against other tax liabilities. However, the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service denied its application for both reimbursement and offsetting of such amounts. RESA challenged this ruling in an administrative proceeding.

Upon being notified to pay tax debts resulting from offsets in light of certain changes introduced by IN SRF 210/02, RESA filed a Writ of Mandamus and applied for a preliminary injunction seeking to stay enforceable in relation to the offset taxes, in an attempt to prevent the Tax Authorities from demanding the relevant tax debts in court. The preliminary injunction was granted by the court. The legal counsel of the Company in charge of this suit has deemed it a possible loss.

b)
Civil and labor

As of March 31, 2014, the  nature of civil and labor claims, whose likelihood of loss is assessed as possible, is similar to the previous litigations mentioned above. The civil and labor claims assessed as possible are as follows:

On July 19, 2013, the Company's shareholders approved the payment of supplemental dividends of R$ 6,916, in addition to those accrued in the annual financial statements, without interest.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company reviewed the balance of preferred shares outstanding, and determined the reversal of R$ 11,812 of the obligation with Cosan. Therefore, the remaining balance of preferred shares payable to Cosan on March 31, 2014 is R$ 260,738 (R$323,102 in 2013), (See Note 10).

Due to the merger of IPL into REPSA and, subsequently, into the Company, Class C preferred shares were issued to guarantee exclusive dividends to Shell  of R$ 3,538, through the use by the Company of tax credits and the funds in current account comprising the merged net assets (Note 1).

At March 31, 2014 the balance of preferred shares (Class B and C) is R$ 264,276 (R$ 326,640 in 2013). The counterparts to equity are recorded under related parties (Note 10.a), R $ 260,738 (R $ 323,102 in 2013) belonging to shareholders Cosan, classified in non-current liabilities and R $ 932 and R $ 2,606 (idem in 2013) works belonging to Shell shareholders, classified as current or non-current liabilities respectively.

Capital reserve

Corresponds to the share premium arising from the difference between the subscription price paid in consideration for the shares and their par value. Such a reserve can only be used to increase capital, absorb losses, redeem, reimburse or purchase shares or pay accumulated dividends to preferred shares.

On April 24, 2013, the Company purchased 33.33% shares of TEAS, thereby increasing interest in TEAS to 100.00%. The difference between the price paid in excess of the TEAS net assets in the amount of R$ 5,973, is registered in this account, and the Company wrote off the Non Controlling Interest in the consolidated financial statements in the amount of R$ 17,927.

Incentive tax reserve

Corresponds to the effect of the tax incentive recognized by the subsidiary Raízen Caarapó Açúcar e Álcool Ltda. (“Caarapó”) on the consolidated Shareholders’ Equity. Caarapó entered into an agreement with the Mato Grosso do Sul State  - the Termo de Acordo no 331/2008 - which grants a tax benefit of 67% on the ICMS payable generated from the process of manufacturing sugar in the state.

Special goodwill reserve

Merged assets of IPL

Following the merger of IPL into REPSA (Note 1), whose main assets comprised investments held by it in the capital stock of REPSA and the goodwill recorded based on tax records, recognized upon the formation of the ethanol, sugar and bioenergy joint venture, such goodwill started to be deductible for income tax and social contribution purposes. Therefore a special goodwill reserve was recognized in the equity of Raízen Energia against deferred tax assets,  of R$ 241,107, equivalent to the tax benefit of 34% arising from the amortization of such goodwill.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to the shareholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the year.

The table below sets out the data on net income and shares used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended March 31, 2014, 2013 and ten month period ended March 31, 2012 (in thousands, except amounts per share):

Information by segment

The Management of Raízen Energia defined the ethanol, sugar and bioenergy ("EAB") segment as the only operating segment based on reports used by the Board of Directors to make key decisions about strategic and operational matters. The performance goals for evaluation purposes are defined and monitored for the EAB segment as a whole.

The EAB segment comprises the production and sale of ethanol and sugar originating from sugarcane processing, as well as energy cogeneration, from the burning of the sugarcane bagasse.

Since the assets are equally used to produce sugar, ethanol and bioenergy, there is no disclosure of these assets by business segment.

b)
Risk management framework

The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The board of directors has established the Risk Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Company’s risk management policies. The committee reports regularly to the board of directors on its activities.

The Group’s risk management, treasury and trading policies are set to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adhere to limits.  Risk management policies and systems are revised regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities.

The Company is exposed to market risks due to the volatility of interest and foreign exchange rates. The contracting of financial instruments for hedging purposes is made based on an analysis of the exposure to the risk that management intends to cover.

On March 31, 2014 and 2013, the derivative instruments for hedging or other purposes were measured at fair value using observable inputs, such as prices quoted in active markets or discounted cash flows based on market curves as follows:

c)
Price risk

Price risk arises from the possibility of fluctuations in the market prices of products sold by the Company, mainly VHP sugar (sugar #11), refined sugar (#5 or white sugar) and ethanol, substantially via the subsidiary Raízen Trading LLP. These price fluctuations may cause material changes in the Company's sales revenue. In order to mitigate this risk, the Company continuously  monitors the market to anticipate price fluctuations. The table below shows the Company’s derivatives positions which hedge against this price risk:

Currency risk


The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the currencies in which sales, purchases and borrowings are denominated and the functional currency of the Company, which is the Real (BRL). The currency in which these transactions are primarily denominated is the US dollar.

The Company uses derivatives to manage cash flow risk arising from US dollar-denominated export revenues, net of other foreign currency-denominated cash flows.  The table below shows the outstanding derivatives positions as at March 31, 2014 and 2013 used to hedge against currency risk:

Effects of hedge accounting

On April 1st, 2011, the Company formally designated derivatives used to hedge cash flows from VHP sugar export revenues as subject to hedge accounting, by documenting: (i) the hedge relationship, (ii) the Company's risk management goal and strategy to contract the hedge, (iii) the identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the hedged item or transaction, (v) the nature of the risk to be hedged, (vi) the description of the hedge relationship, (vii) the correlation between the hedge and the hedged item, and (viii) the retrospective and prospective assessment of hedge effectiveness. The Company designated the Sugar#11 (NYBOT or OTC) derivatives to hedge the price risk and Non-Deliverable Forward (NDF) contracts to hedge the currency risk, as shown in items (b) and (c) of this note.

The Company accounts for gains and losses considered as effective for hedge accounting purposes in a specific item in equity, until such time as the hedged item is realized in income, when such gains or losses of each designated instrument are transferred to profit or loss in the same line item as the hedged item (in this case, sales revenue).  As at March 31, 2014 and 2013, the impacts accounted for in the Company's equity and the estimated realization in the income statement are as follows:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises mainly from the Company’s receivables from customers and investments in debt securities.

A significant portion of sales made by the Company is to a selected group of best-in-class counterparties, i.e. trading companies, fuel distribution companies and large supermarket chains.

Credit risk is managed through specific parameters for client acceptance, analysis of credit and setting of limits for customer exposure, including the requirement of a letter of credit from prime banks and obtaining of real guarantees, when applicable.  Management believes that the credit risk is substantially covered by the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The individual risk limits are determined based on internal and external classifications in accordance with the limits set by the Company's Management. Credit limits are monitored on a regular basis. No credit limit was exceeded during the year ended on March 31, 2014, and Management does not expect any default losses on these counterparties above the amount already accrued.

The Company has commodity derivatives traded in futures and options markets including the New York Board of Trade (NYBOT) and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange (LIFFE), as well as in the over-the-counter market with selected counterparties.  The Company has foreign exchange and commodities derivatives on BM&FBovespa and OTC contracts registered with CETIP, mainly with banks Espírito Santo Investimento do Brasil S.A., Deutsche Bank S.A. - Banco Alemão, JP Morgan S.A. and Banco Standard de Investimentos S.A.
 
Guarantee margins - The Company's derivative operations on commodity exchanges (NYBOT, LIFFE and BM&FBovespa) require an initial guarantee margin. The brokers with whom the Company operates on these commodity exchanges offer credit limits for these margins. As at March 31, 2014, the total initial margin required by NYBOT is R$ 87,665 (R$ 34,775 in 2013). As at March 31, 2014, in order to operate on the BM&FBovespa, the Company has R$ 57,500 (R$ 40,547 in 2013) in bank certificates of deposit from prime banks. The Company's derivative transactions on the over-the-counter market do not require margin calls (Note 4).
 
The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents, comprised mainly of investment funds and CDBs (Note 3), is distributed among the main national and international banks rated by international risk rating agencies as Investment Grade.

h)
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as much as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
 
The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date:

j)
Fair value

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities refers to the amount at which the instrument can be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties and not in a forced sale or settlement transaction. The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described below.
 
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables, amounts due to/from related parties, and other short-term payables approximates their carrying values mainly due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of other long-term assets and liabilities do not substantially differ from their carrying values.
 
The fair value of loans and financing mainly approximates their carrying values since these financial instruments are subject to floating interest rates (Note 16). The fair value of tradable Senior Notes is based on price quotations at the financial statements date. On March 31, 2014, the fair value of Senior Notes maturing in 2017 (Note 16) corresponds to 110.43% of its face value (114.05% in 2013).
 
The fair value of available-for-sale financial assets is obtained from prices quoted in active markets, as applicable.
 
The Company contracts derivatives from various counterparties, mainly financial institutions rated as investment grade. Derivatives measured using valuation techniques based on observable market inputs mainly include interest rate swaps, currency forward contracts and forward commodities contracts. The valuation techniques more frequently applied include forward and swap contract pricing models, calculated at present value.  The models incorporate various data, including the credit quality of the counterparties, spot and forward exchange rates, interest rate curves and forward price curves of the underlying commodity.

Fair value hierarchy
 
The Company discloses its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, based on the appropriate accounting pronouncements, which relate to concepts of valuation and disclosure requirements.
 
In relation to such disclosure, the Company applies the hierarchy requirements set out in IFRS 13, which involves the following aspects:
 
 
·
The fair value is the price that an asset could be exchanged and a liability could be settled, between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction; and
 
·
Hierarchy on 3 levels for measurement of the fair value, according to observable inputs for the valuation of an asset or liability on the date of its measurement.

The valuation established on 3 levels of hierarchy for measurement of the fair value is based on observable and non-observable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while non-observable inputs reflect the Company’s valuation techniques. These two types of inputs create the hierarchy of fair value set forth below:
 
 
·
Level 1 – Prices quoted (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
 
·
Level 2 – Prices quoted in active markets for similar instruments, prices quoted for identical or similar instruments in non-active markets and evaluation models for which inputs are observable; and
 
·
Level 3 – Instruments whose significant inputs are non-observable.

The table below presents the overall classification of financial assets and liabilities according to the valuation hierarchy.

Sensitivity analysis

The following analysis is a sensitivity analysis of the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with the risk types considered relevant by the Company.
 
Assumptions for sensitivity analysis
 
The Company adopted, for the sensitivity analysis, three scenarios, being one probable, and another two stressed scenarios that may affect the fair value of financial instruments of the Company.  The probable scenario is defined as from the sugar price on the futures market and dollar curves on March 31, 2014 and 2013 that determines the derivatives fair value on the aforementioned date. The stressed were defined taking into consideration the adverse impacts of 25% and 50% on the sugar and dollar price curves, which were used as the basis for the probable scenario.
 
Sensitivity table
 
The sensitivity table of derivative fair value variation for probable and stressed scenarios is presented below:

The increase in the Company’s leverage rations was mainly due to new loans and borrowings raised, with the BNDES and Credit notes, as well as the issuance of debentures (Note 15). This increase is aligned with the Company’s strategy of investing in industrial equipment and in biological assets, as well as maintaining adequate cash balances.

Although Law 12.973 is effective from January 1st, 2015, there is an option for Companies to retrospectively apply the changes from January 1st, 2014, which, according to the Normative Statement RFB N° 1.469/2014, must be declared by July 21, 2014.
 
Based on management’s analysis, the Company is not likely to opt for application of the law from 2014 and therefore does not expect any significant impacts on these financial statements.
