PETR3 April 02, 2014 Annual Meeting 3 Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC 1.00: ACCOUNTS AND REPORTS PROPOSAL REQUEST: Approval of financial statements and related reports for RECOMMENDATIONS & CONCERNS: the past fiscal year. PRIOR YEAR VOTE RESULT: N/A ABSTAIN- The Company's director and supervisory council reservations regarding the financial statements are absent from BINDING/ADVISORY: Binding independent auditor's report. REQUIRED TO APPROVE: Majority of votes cast PROPOSAL SUMMARY Shareholders will be presented with the Company's financial statements, management report and supervisory council's report. MARKET PRACTICE In Brazil, unanimous shareholder approval of a company's financial statements exempts management and supervisory council members from liability for their actions during the corresponding fiscal year, with exceptions in instances of error, bad faith, fraud or misrepresentations of accounting, as explained in article 134 of Brazilian Corporations Law 6.404. GLASS LEWIS ANALYSIS We believe that all of the necessary financial statements and reports are present in the Company's annual report. We note that in the opinion of PricewaterhouseCoopers, the Company's independent auditor, the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Brazil and International Financial Reporting Standards. We note that in its unqualified opinion, PricewaterhouseCoopers places an emphasis of matter on the accounting standards which were used to prepare the Company's individual financial statements, generally accepted accounting principles in Brazil, which differ from IFRS in the manner investments in subsidiaries are valued. However, we highlight that the Company has electronically disclosed through BM&FBOVESPA that director Mauro Rodrigues da Cunha (representative of minority shareholders), voted against the approval of the aforementioned financial statements during a board meeting, held on February 25, 2014. Mr. Cunha highlighted the following reasons for his objection: (i) lack of timely distribution of financial statements for analysis; (ii) disagreement about the hedge accounting policy; (iii) lack of information and the apparent inadequacy of accounting investments in refineries. Further, in a meeting held on the same day, the supervisory council expressed concerns regarding the possible deterioration of the Company's credit rating, which may affect volumes and costs for future borrowings to finance the investment plans of the Company. We believe shareholders should exercise caution in evaluating the Company's financial statements given Mr. Cunha's objection. However, in the absence of an auditor's qualified opinion regarding these concerns, we do not believe that shareholders have sufficient information to make a well-informed judgment regarding this matter at this time. Although it is unusual for Glass Lewis to recommend that shareholders abstain from voting on a company's accounts in Brazil, the uncertainty regarding the integrity of the Company's financial statements does not warrant support for this proposal at this time. Accordingly, we recommend that shareholders ABSTAIN from voting on this proposal. PETR3 April 02, 2014 Annual Meeting 4 Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC 2.00: CAPITAL EXPENDITURE BUDGET PROPOSAL REQUEST: Approval of capital expenditure budget for the current RECOMMENDATIONS & CONCERNS: fiscal year. PRIOR YEAR VOTE RESULT: N/A FOR- NO CONCERNS BINDING/ADVISORY: Binding REQUIRED TO APPROVE: Majority of votes cast PROPOSAL SUMMARY If approved, the capital expenditure budget will be set at R$69,726,000,000 and will be allocated as follows: FINANCINGS/INFLOWS AMOUNT (R$ MILLIONS) EXPENDITURES/OUTFLOWS AMOUNT(R$ MILLIONS) Direct Investments 69,545.0 Exploration/Production 43,697.3 Third Party Funds 181.0 Downstream 18,428.6 - - Energy/Gas 6,366.0 - - Corporate Segment 1,234.2 GLASS LEWIS ANALYSIS Glass Lewis will generally support a company's decisions regarding capital expenditures, absent a showing of egregious conduct that might threaten shareholder value. It is our opinion that management and the board are in the best position to determine what operational decisions are best in the context of a company's business. We believe

  • The Top 20 Brazilian Multinationals: a Long Way out of the Crises Highlights
    The Top 20 Brazilian Multinationals: A Long Way Out of the Crises January 18, 2018 São Paulo and New York, January 18, 2018: The Center of International Financial Management Studies (IFM) of the São Paulo School of Business Administration (EAESP) of Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), Brazil, and the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI), a joint center of Columbia Law School and The Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, are releasing today the results of their research report profiling the top 20 Brazilian multinational enterprises (MNEs),1 ranked in terms of foreign assets. The report is part of the Emerging Market Global Players (EMGP) Project, a long-term study of the rapid global expansion of MNEs from emerging markets. The present report, conducted in 2017, covers the 2016 annual year.2 Highlights In 2016, the top 20 Brazilian MNEs included in our survey had combined foreign assets of approximately US$ 106.7 billion, foreign revenue (including exports) of more than US$ 135.3 billion and 195,377 foreign employees (excluding outsourced, temporary and seasonal employees).3 On average, the foreign assets of the top 20 firms constituted 44.9% of those firms’ total assets in 2016; foreign sales accounted for 61.6% of the firms’ total net sales; and foreign employees accounted for 23.9% of their total employees, resulting in an average Transnationality Index (TNI) of 43.5% (Annex Table 1). Of the top 20 Brazilian MNEs, the Oil and Gas Extraction, Food Manufacturing, Mining, the Primary Metal Manufacturing, and the Paper and Allied Products industries comprised almost 90% of the foreign assets (eleven companies).

  • BRASIL – Aeronautics Cluster
    Microeconomics of Competitiveness Professor Michael E. Porter Professor Hiro Takeuchi Professor Niels Ketelhohn BRASIL – Aeronautics Cluster Pedro Fernandes, Victor Moscoso, Adam Price Jiro Yoshino, Jingyi Zhang May 6th, 2011 1 Figure 1. Map of Brazil 1.1 Country Overview Located in between Atlantic Ocean and South America, Brazil is the world's fifth largest country both by geographical area and by population1. Brazil has experienced a fast urbanization process and nowadays more than 80% of the population in Brazil is urban and approximately 30% live in the ten principal metropolitan areas (PwC, 2006)i. It also borders with all South-American countries but Chile and Ecuador. Source: US Department of State Most of its neighbors are developing countries with abundant natural resources. (CIA, 2011). Brazil’s GDP in 2010 was US$ 2,029 billion with a GDP per capita of US$ 11,196 (in PPP) (EIU, 2011) and the Brazilian economy grew 7.5% in 2010, being expected to grow 4% in 2011 (World Bank, 2011). 1.2 Macro, political, legal and social context The analysis of policy choices in Brazil reveal that the paradigms and macroeconomic policies varied widely in the second half of the 20th century, from a State oriented economy and import substitution policies toward a more open and free market economy. Brazil’s policy makers realized after World War II that they needed to diversify its export basket, beyond the traditional commodities. Among other policies implemented, the exchange controls produced, overvaluation of the Cruzeiro (former currency) and encouragement of imports; at the same time, there were restrictions to capital repatriation and the remittances of earnings (Baer, 2008).

  • Equity Strategy
    Equity Strategy Brazil April 5, 2020 When the Scenario Changes, I Change My Mind In this report, we update our Brazil Buy List (BBL) to consider weaker 2020 GDP growth outlook in Brazil and globally, and a potentially slower recovery post crisis. We also discuss how this crisis could change individuals’ behavior and analyze the potential impact on sectors and companies. ◼ Growth outlook deteriorated: higher unemployment and lower consumer confidence. ◼ Think ahead: How might post-crisis behavior changes affect different sectors? ◼ Adding Vale to our Brazil Buy List. Portfolio is balanced between defenders and rebounders. Growth outlook deteriorated: higher unemployment and lower consumer confidence. First, we believe that the negative impact on GDP growth could be more intense than initially expected due to higher unemployment and lower consumer confidence. The impact on Brazil’s GDP growth could be even worse, given its higher dependence on the services sector. Second, the pace of GDP recovery could be less intense than expected, as lockdowns could take longer to be fully relaxed, similar to what is occurring in Asian countries. This can be seen in the still-low traffic congestion in some countries, despite the recovery in other economic indicators. Lastly, the origin and the magnitude of this crisis seem unprecedented and will likely have short- and long-term consequences for our society, which we start to discuss in this report. Think ahead: post-crisis behavior changes and impacts on companies and sectors. In this report, we discuss the changes in individual behaviors that we expect to result from this crisis with our sector analysts, and list the potential implications for sectors and companies.
