Report on review of Quarterly Information

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying parent company and consolidated interim accounting information of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A - Petrobras, included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, comprising the balance sheet at that date and the statements of income and comprehensive income for the quarter and six-month periods then ended, and the statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the parent company and consolidated interim accounting information in accordance with the accounting standard CPC 21, Interim Financial Reporting, of the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC) and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as the presentation of this information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim accounting information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the interim information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying parent company and consolidated interim accounting information included in the quarterly information referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.

Emphasis – Impact of the Lava Jato Operation on the Company’s results

We draw attention to note 3 of the interim financial information which describes that:

i)                      no additional information has been identified through the date of this accounting information which could materially impact the estimation methodology adopted for the write off recorded on September 30, 2014 ; and

ii)                     the internal investigations being conducted by outside legal counsel under the supervision of a Special Committee created by the Company and the investigation conducted by the Securities and Exchange Commission are still on going.

We also draw attention to note 29.4 of the interim financial information which describes legal actions filed against the Company, for which a possible loss, or range of possible losses, cannot be reasonably estimated as they are in their preliminary stages.

Our report is not modified as a result of these matters.

Othermatters – Statements of Value Added

We have also reviewed the parent company and consolidated statements of value added for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. These statements are the responsibility of the Company's management, and are required to be presented in accordance with standards issued by the CVM applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR) and are considered supplementary information under IFRS, which do not require the presentation of the statement of value added. These statements have been submitted to the same review procedures described above and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they have not been prepared, in all material respects, in a manner consistent with the parent company and consolidated interim accounting information taken as a whole.

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

 

1.            The Company and its operations

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras is dedicated, directly or through its subsidiaries (referred to jointly as “Petrobras”, “the Company”, or “Petrobras Group”) to prospecting, drilling, refining, processing, trading and transporting crude oil from producing onshore and offshore oil fields and from shale or other rocks, as well as oil products, natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons. In addition, Petrobras carries out energy related activities, such as research, development, production, transport, distribution and trading of all forms of energy, as well as other related or similar activities. The Company’s head office is located in Rio de Janeiro – RJ, Brazil.

 

 

2.            Basis of preparation of interim financial information

The consolidated interim accounting information has been prepared and is being presented in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and also in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil for interim financial reporting (CPC 21 - R1).

The parent company interim accounting information has been prepared and is being presented in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil for interim financial reporting (CPC 21 - R1) and does not differ from the consolidated information.

This interim accounting information presents the significant changes in the period, avoiding repetition of certain notes to the financial statements previously reported in notes to the Company’s financial statements, and presents the consolidated information, considering Management’s understanding that the consolidated financial information provides a comprehensive view of the Company’s financial position and operational performance. Certain information about the parent company are also included. Hence, this interim financial information should be read together with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, which include the full set of notes.

The Company’s Board of Directors in a meeting held on August 11, 2016 authorized the issuance of these consolidated interim financial information.

2.1.       Accounting estimates

The preparation of interim financial information requires the use of estimates and assumptions for certain assets, liabilities and other transactions. These estimates include: oil and gas reserves, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment of assets, pension and medical benefits liabilities, provisions for legal proceedings, dismantling of areas and environmental remediation, deferred income taxes, cash flow hedge accounting and allowance for impairment of trade receivables. Although our management uses assumptions and judgments that are periodically reviewed, the actual results could differ from these estimates.

3.            The “Lava Jato (Car Wash) Operation” and its effects on the Company

In the third quarter of 2014, the Company wrote off R$ 6,194 (R$ 4,788 in the Parent Company) of capitalized costs representing amounts that Petrobras overpaid for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment in prior years. For further information see note 3 to the Company’s December 31, 2015 audited consolidated financial statements.

In preparing its financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2016, the Company considered all available information and did not identify any additional information in the investigations related to the “Lava Jato” (Car Wash) Operation by the Brazilian authorities or by the independent law firms conducting an internal investigation that could materially impact or change the methodology adopted to recognize the write-off. The Company will continuously monitor the investigations for additional information and will review its potential impacts on the adjustment made.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has recovered R$ 309 through leniency agreements, of which R$ 230 were received in 2015. The amounts recovered were recognized as other income (amounts recovered – “overpayments incorrectly capitalized”).

Additionally, on July 15, 2016, the Ministry of Transparency, Oversight and Control (Ministério da Transparência, Fiscalização e Controle – “MTFC”), the Public Prosecutor’s Office (Ministério Público Federal – “MPF”), the General Counsel for the Republic (Advocacia Geral da União – “AGU”) and SBM Offshore, signed a leniency agreement through which the Dutch company will pay compensation of US$ 342 million , of which US$ 328 million will be reimbursed to Petrobras as follows: (i) the first installment of US$ 129 million will be paid as soon as the agreement becomes effective; (ii) the second and third installments will be paid 12 and 24 months after the signature of the agreement  in the amount of US$ 10 million each; (iii) the remaining US$ 179 million will be deducted from future payments owed by the Company to SBM pursuant to existing contracts.

(*) Cigás assigned receivables from Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia to Petrobras, pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement of natural gas (upstream and downstream contracts).

(**) Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia

(***) Centrais Elétricas do Norte

 

 

As of June 30, 2016, R$ 6,837 of the Company’s net trade receivables from the isolated electricity system in the northern region of Brazil, related to the sale of fuel oil, natural gas, electricity and other products to thermoelectric power plants (which are subsidiaries of Eletrobras), state-owned natural gas distribution companies and independent electricity producers (Produtores Independentes de Energia – PIE) operating in that region, were classified as non-current assets. The balance of those receivables was R$ 10,054 as of June 30, 2016 (R$ 9,932 as of December 31, 2015).

A significant portion of the funds used by those companies to pay for products supplied by the Company came from the Fuel Consumption Account (Conta de Consumo de Combustível – CCC), which provides funds to cover a portion of the costs related to the supply of fuel to thermoelectric power plants located in the northern region of Brazil (operating in the isolated electricity system). However, as a result of changes in the CCC regulations over time, funds transferred from the CCC to these electricity companies have not been sufficient for them to meet their financial obligations and, as a result, some have not been able to pay for the products supplied by Petrobras.

In 2012, a new legislation (Provisional Measure 579 of September 11, 2012, revoked by Law No. 12.783/2013) significantly changed the sources of funds that were used to cover the cost of electricity generated in the Isolated Electricity System and the Brazilian Federal Government started to provide funds to cover costs that in the past were only borne by the CCC. This assistance from the Federal Government would be made available through funds deposited in the Energy Development Account (Conta de Desenvolvimento Energético CDE) by the Brazilian National Treasury. Those funds, however, proved to be insufficient to cover the operational costs of the isolated electricity system in the northern region of Brazil.

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

The funds available in the CCC, which were already insufficient to cover the costs related to fuel supplied by the Company, decreased significantly. Following an increase in the amounts owed by the thermoelectric power plants operating in the Isolated Electricity System, the Company put pressure on the negotiations with the state-owned natural gas distribution companies, the independent electricity producers (PIEs), subsidiaries of Eletrobras and other private companies. On December 31, 2014, the Company entered into a debt acknowledgement agreement with subsidiaries of Eletrobras with respect to the balance of its receivables as of November 30, 2014. Eletrobras acknowledged it owed R$ 8,601 to the Company. This amount is being adjusted monthly based on the Selic interest rate (Brazilian short-term interest rate). Under this agreement, the first of 120 monthly installments was paid in February 2015 and these payments have continued. As of May 7, 2015, R$ 7,380 (R$ 6,084 as of December 31, 2014) had been guaranteed by the collateralization of certain amounts payable by the CDE to the CCC.

In early 2015, the Brazilian government reviewed its electricity price regulations and implemented a new pricing policy for the electricity sector, which has resulted in increases in the tariffs charged to end-customers since the first quarter of 2015. The Company had expected that this new policy would have strengthened the financial situation of the companies in the electricity sector and, consequently to reduce the balance of their accounts payable with respect to fuel oil and other products supplied by the Company, which has not occurred. Despite the increase in amount of electricity tariffs to end-users of electricity distributors in order to provide financial stability to these companies, the recovery flow of CCC funds has occurred slowly, delaying the reimbursements for fuel acquisition costs provided by Petrobras and deteriorating the default of those customers to the Company.

Pursuant to the issuance of Normative Instruction 679 on September 1, 2015 by the Brazilian National Electricity Agency (Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica - ANEEL), the Company expected that the flow of funds it would receive from the CCC would accelerate. This is because funds would be paid directly from the CCC for products supplied in the prior month with a limit of 75% of the average payments made by the CCC in the previous three months. However, it has not occurred and, therefore, the insolvency of these receivables increased and these receivables continue to be delinquent.

In 2015, the Company recognized R$ 1,876 as allowance for impairment of trade receivables (net of reversals) due to frustrated negotiations to enter into additional debt acknowledgement agreements and new pledges of receivables from the CDE.

In the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized an allowance for impairment of trade receivables (net of reversals) in the amount of R$ 946, mainly related to new supplies of(i) fuel oil by legal enforcement (injunction) in the first quarter of 2016; and (ii) natural gas, mainly in the second quarter of 2016. In July 2016, the AME paid part of receivables maturing in May and June 2016 in amount of R$ 257, therefore no allowance for impairment was recognized concerning this amount.

Accordingly, the Company adopted the following measures:

·         judicial collection of overdue receivables with respect to natural gas supplied to AME, Eletrobras and Cigás;

·         judicial collection of overdue receivables with respect to fuel oil supplied by the whole owned subsidiary BR Distribuidora to companies of Eletrobras Group (Amazonas, Acre, Rondônia and Roraima);

·         partial suspension of gas supply;

·         suspension of fuel oil supply, except when legally enforced; and

·         registration of entities controlled by Eletrobras as delinquent companies in Brazilian Central Bank files and registration of AME as a delinquent company in ANEEL files.

Inventories are presented net of an R$ 117 allowance reducing inventories to net realizable value (R$ 607 as of December 31, 2015), mainly due to changes in international prices of crude oil and oil products. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 the Company recognized as cost of sales a R$ 1,250 allowance charge reducing inventories to net realizable value (R$ 38 in the same period of 2015).

A portion of the crude oil and/or oil products inventories have been pledged as security for the Terms of Financial Commitment (TFC) signed by Petrobras and Petros in the amount of R$ 6,263 (R$ 6,711 as of December 31, 2015), as set out in note 21.1.

9.            Disposal of Assets

The Company’s 2015-2019 Business and Management Plan forecasts a dynamic portfolio of partnerships and divestments during the two years period of 2015-2016, subject to market and business conditions during the negotiations, which can change in accordance with the ongoing Company’s business analysis and also with the external environment. Accordingly, the conditions to recognize assets and liabilities as held for sale are achieved only when the Board of Directors approves a disposal.

9.1.       Sale of Petrobras Argentina

On May 12, 2016, the Board of Directors approved the disposal of the Company’s entire 67.19% interest in Petrobras Argentina -PESA, owned through the subsidiary Petrobras Participaciones S.L. (“PPSL”), to Pampa Energía, in the amount of US$ 892 million, without taking into account the effect of price adjustments and tax impact. This transaction was concluded (still subject to adjustments) on July 27. 2016, as set out in note 33.3.

9.2.       Termination of the contract for the sale of Bijupirá and Salema fields (BJS)

On February 26, 2016, Petro Rio S.A. terminated the contracts signed with the Company on July 1, 2015, for the sale of a 20% interest in Bijupirá and Salema concessions (BJS) and in the Dutch joint operation BJS Oil Operations B.V. (BJSOO BV). Accordingly, the amounts related to these fields were reclassified from assets and liabilities held for sale back to property, plant and equipment R$ 527 and to provision for decommissioning costs R$ 493, respectively, plus interest.

Due to the aforementioned reclassification, the respective assets were depreciated based on their historical data and their recoverable amounts were reassessed. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss as set out in note 13.

Braskem S.A. - Investment in publicly traded associate:

Braskem’s shares are publicly traded on stock exchanges in Brazil and abroad. As of June 30, 2016, the quoted market value of the Company’s investment in Braskem was R$ 4,842, based on the quoted values of both Petrobras’ interest in Braskem’s common stock (47% of the outstanding shares), and preferred stock (22% of the outstanding shares). However, there is extremely limited trading of the common shares, since non-signatories of the shareholders’ agreement hold only approximately 3% of the common shares.

Given the operational relationship between Petrobras and Braskem, on December 31, 2015, the recoverable amount of the investment for impairment testing purposes was determined based on value in use, considering future cash flow projections and the manner in which the Company can derive value from this investment via dividends and other distributions to arrive at its value in use. As the recoverable amount was higher than the carrying amount, no impairment losses were recognized for this investment.

The main assumptions on which cash flow projections were based to determine Braskem’s value in use are set out in note 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

11.2.   Concession for exploration of oil and natural gas - Assignment Agreement (“Cessão Onerosa”)

Petrobras and the Brazilian Federal Government entered into the Assignment Agreement in 2010, which grants the Company the right to carry out prospection and drilling activities for oil, natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons located in the pre-salt area limited to the production of five billion barrels of oil equivalent in up to 40 years and renewable for a further five years subject to certain conditions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s property, plant and equipment includes the amount of R$ 74,808 related to the Assignment Agreement

Petrobras has already declared commerciality in fields of all six blocks in the scope of this agreement: Franco (Búzios), Florim (Itapu), Nordeste de Tupi (Sépia), Entorno de Iara (Norte de Berbigão, Sul de Berbigão, Norte de Sururu, Sul de Sururu, Atapu), Sul de Guará (Sul de Sapinhoá) and Sul de Tupi (Sul de Lula).

The agreement establishes that the review procedures of the agreement will commence immediately after the declaration of commerciality for each area and must be based on independent technical appraisal reports. The review of the Assignment Agreement will be concluded after the review of all the areas. However, no specific date has been established for the review procedures to be concluded.

If the review of the Assignment Agreement determines that the value of acquired rights is greater than initially paid, the Company may be required to pay the difference to the Federal Government, or may proportionally reduce the total volume of barrels acquired under the agreement. If the review determines that the value of the acquired rights is lower than initially paid by the Company, the Federal Government will reimburse the Company for the difference by delivering cash or bonds or equivalent means of payment, subject to budgetary regulations.

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

The formal review procedures for each block are based on costs incurred through the exploration stage and estimated costs and production levels included in the independent technical appraisal reports. The review of the Assignment Agreement may result in changes in: (i) the amount of the agreement; (ii) the total volume (in barrels of oil) to be produced; (iii) the term of the agreement; and (iv) the minimum percentages of local content.

The appraisal assumptions for the blocks in the scope of the Assignment Agreement are still under negotiation with the Brazilian Federal Government and the final amount to be established for this Agreement still lacks: (i) assumptions validation; (ii) independent technical appraisal reports and (iii) the outcome of the negotiations.

13.         Impairment

The Company’s assets are tested for impairment on December 31, annually, or when there is an indication that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

In the first half of 2016, impairment losses (net of reversals) were recognized as other expenses, net, in the amount of R$ 1,478, mainly due to:

·      COMPERJ – Reassessment of this project that confirmed its postponement until December 2020 (first refining unit) with continuous efforts to seek new partnerships to its resumption. The construction of Comperj facilities related to natural gas processing plant (UPGN) will be continued, since they are part of the transport and processing of natural gas from the pre-salt layer in Santos Basin infrastructure. However, the estimated costs and period of time to complete these facilities constructions were revised and, therefore, the Company recognized an impairment charge of the project remaining balance (R$  1,124) as of June 30, 2016.

·      Bijupirá and Salema –due to the termination of the sale contract of these fields on February 26, 2016, their related assets and liabilities, previously classified as held for sale, were reclassified, triggering reassessments of the respective recoverable amounts. Accordingly, an impairment charge of R$ 317 was recognized.

In the first half of 2015, considering changes in circumstances and projections, projects removed from the 2015-2019 Business and Management Plan were also removed from their cash-generating units as previously set out in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 (when those assets had not suffered impairment losses).

Based on the assessment of the recoverable amount of such assets (tested for impairment individually), an impairment charge of R$ 1,286 was recognized as other expenses in the second quarter of 2015, mainly for: (i) Nitrogen Fertilizer Plant - UFN-V (R$ 585); (ii) RTM assets (R$ 364); and (iii) E&P producing properties in Brazil (several CGUs) and assets held for sale (R$ 246).

14.        Exploration for and evaluation of oil and gas reserves

The exploration and evaluation activities include the search for oil and gas reserves from obtaining the legal rights to explore a specific area to the declaration of the technical and commercial viability of the reserves.

Changes in the balances of capitalized costs directly associated with exploratory wells pending determination of proved reserves and the balance of amounts paid for obtaining rights and concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas (capitalized acquisition costs) are set out in the following table:

16.             Finance debt

The Company obtains funding through debt financing for capital expenditures to develop crude oil and natural gas producing properties, construct vessels and pipelines, construct and expand industrial plants, among other uses.

The Company has covenants that were not in default on June, 30 2016 in its loan agreements and notes issued in the capital markets requiring, among other obligations, the presentation of interim financial statements within 90 days of the end of each quarter (not reviewed by independent auditors) and audited financial statements within 120 days of the end of each fiscal year. Non-compliance with these obligations do not represent immediate events of default and the grace period in which the Company has to deliver these financial statements ranges from 30 to 60 days, depending on the agreement. The Company also has covenants with respect to debt level in some of its loan agreements with the Brazilian Development Bank (Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento - BNDES).

A roll-forward schedule of non-current debt is set out as follows:

The fair value of the Company's finance debt is determined primarily by quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities (level 1), when applicable, amounting to R$ 149,032 as of June 30, 2016. When a quoted price for an identical liability is not available, the finance debt is fair valued by a discounted cash flow based on a theoretical curve derived from the yield curve of the Company's most liquid bonds (level 2), amounting to R$ 211,691, as of June 30, 2016.

The sensitivity analysis for financial instruments subject to foreign exchange variation is set out in note 31.2.

In the first half of 2016 the board members and officers of the Petrobras group received R$ 38.0 as compensation (R$ 31.0 in the first half of 2015).

The compensation of the Advisory Committees to the Board of Directors is apart from the fixed compensation set for the Board members and, therefore, has not been classified under compensation of Petrobras’ key management.

The alternates of Board members, who were also members of these committees, up to April 2016, received the amount of R$ 54 thousand as compensation in 2016 (R$ 65 thousand including related charges).

20.2.   Brazilian Tax Law

On December 30, 2015, the state of Rio de Janeiro enacted two laws that increased the tax burden on the oil industry as of March 2016, as follows:

·        Law No. 7,182 – establishes a Rate Control, Monitoring and Supervision of Research, Mining, Oil and Gas Exploration and Utilization Activities tax (Taxa de Controle, Monitoramento e Fiscalização das Atividades de Pesquisa, Lavra, Exploração e Aproveitamento de Petróleo e Gás – TFPG) over each barrel of crude oil or equivalent unit of natural gas extracted in the State of Rio de Janeiro, and

·        Law No. 7,183 – establishes a VAT (ICMS) tax over transactions involving crude oil operations.

The Company believes that the taxation established by both laws is not legally sustainable, and therefore, the Company has supported the Brazilian Association of Companies for the Exploration and Production of Oil and Gas (ABEP - Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Exploração e Produção de Petróleo e Gás), which has filed complaints challenging the constitutionality of such laws before the Brazilian Supreme Court.

The Brazilian Federal Attorney has expressed favorable opinions regarding the basis of the ABEP complaints and the granting of judicial injunctions in favor of the oil and gas industry, aiming to avoid the respective tax burden on it.

The Brazilian Supreme Court is currently analyzing the ABEP request for formal injunctions in both actions.

21.2.   Voluntary Separation Incentive Plan

Since February 2014, the Company has implemented voluntary separation incentive plans aiming to adjust the size of the workforce and to achieve cost optimization as set out in the Business and Management Plan, as described below:

·       Petrobras (PIDV 2014) – the enrollment period occurred from February 12 to March 31, 2014. This plan was re-opened for eligible employees from November 30 to December 18, 2015 and, as a result, 6,779 separations of 7,219 total enrollments were made up to June 30, 2016.

·       Petrobras Distribuidora S.A. (PIDV BR 2014) – the enrollment period occurred from February 12 to March 31, 2014 and, as a result, 656 separations of 658 total enrollments were made up to June 30, 2016.

·       Petrobras Distribuidora S.A. (PIDV BR 2015) – the enrollment period occurred from October 13 to December 31, 2015 and, as a result, 316 separations of 317 total enrollments were made up to June 30, 2016.

·       Petrobras PIDV 2016 – the enrollment period is from April 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016. The PIDV 2016 is open to all employees and the recognition of the provision for expenditure on this plan will occur proportionally to the enrollment of the workforce. As of June 30, 4,087 employees have enrolled to this program and 662 separations were made.

Therefore, 8,413 voluntary separations of employees who enrolled in these plans were made as of June 30, 2016.

Changes in the provision during the first half of 2016 are set out as follows:

22.        Shareholders’ equity

22.1.   Share capital

As of June 30, 2016, subscribed and fully paid share capital was R$ 205,432, represented by 7,442,454,142 outstanding common shares and 5,602,042,788 outstanding preferred shares, all of which are registered, book-entry shares with no par value.

Preferred shares have priority on returns of capital, do not grant any voting rights and are non-convertible into common shares.

22.2.   Other comprehensive income

In the first half of 2016, the Company recognized the following charges mainly as a result of a 17.8% appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar:

·         Cumulative translation adjustment of R$ 16,817, resulting from the translation of financial statements of subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the Brazilian Real; and

·         Foreign exchange variation gains of R$ 32,258 (after taxes and amounts reclassified to the statement of income) recognized in the Company's shareholders' equity during the first half of 2016, as a result of its cash flow hedge accounting policy. The cumulative balance of foreign exchange variation losses as of June 30, 2016 was R$ 26,033 (after taxes), as set out in note 31.2.

28.        Segment information

The Extraordinary General Meeting held on April 28, 2016 approved adjustments to the Company’s organization structure and governance and management model, aiming to align the organization with the new conditions faced by the oil and gas industry and to prioritize profitability and capital discipline. The new model does not propose discontinuing operations, however, it does consider merge of operations.

The current business segment information is reported in a manner in which the Company’s senior management assesses business performances, as well as makes decisions regarding investments and resources allocation. Due to adjustments in the organization structure and governance and management model, the Company may reassess its business segment report in order to improve management business analysis.

29.        Provisions for legal proceedings

29.1.   Provisions for legal proceedings, judicial deposits and contingent liabilities

The Company recognizes provisions based on the best estimate of the costs of proceedings for which it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required and that can be reliably estimated. These proceedings mainly include:

·       Labor claims, in particular: (i) a review of the methodology by which the minimum compensation based on an employee's position and work schedule (Remuneração Mínima por Nível e Regime - RMNR) is calculated; (ii) lawsuits relating to overtime pay; (iii) individual actions of outsourced employees;

·         Tax claims including claims relating to Brazilian federal and state tax credits applied that were disallowed  and demands relating to the VAT (ICMS) tax collection on jet fuel sales;

·        Civil claims relating to losses and damages proceedings resulting from the cancellation of an assignment of excise tax (IPI) credits to a third party, royalties collection over the shale extraction and alleged noncompliance with contractual terms relating to oil rig construction; and

·         Environmental claims regarding fishermen seeking indemnification from the Company for a January 2000 oil spill in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

Description of civil matters

Estimate

Plaintiff: Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis - ANP

 

1) Proceedings challenging an ANP order requiring Petrobras to unite Lula and Cernambi fields on the BM-S-11 joint venture; to unite Baúna and Piracicaba fields; to unite Tartaruga Verde and Mestiça fields; and to unite Baleia Anã, Baleia Azul, Baleia Franca, Cachalote, Caxaréu, Jubarte and Pirambu, in the Parque das Baleias complex, which would cause changes in the payment of special participation charges.

 

Current status: The claims are being disputed in court and in arbitration proceedings. As a result of judicial decisions, the arbitrations have been suspended. On the Lula and Cernanbi proceeding, for the alleged differences on the special participation, the Company made judicial deposits. However, with the cancellation of the favorable injunction, currently the payment of these alleged differences have been made directly to ANP, until a final judicial decision is handed down. On the Baúna and Piracicaba proceeding, Petrobras made court-ordered judicial deposits. On the Baleia Anã, Baleia Azul, Baleia Franca, Cachalote, Caxaréu, Jubarte and Pirambu, in the Parque das Baleias complex proceeding, as a result of a judicial decision and of a Chamber of Arbitration ruling, the collection of the alleged differences has been suspended. On the Tartaruga Verde and Mestiça proceeding, the arbitration is suspended by judicial decision and, so far, there has been no additional collection of special participation due to the unification.

29.4.   Class action and related proceedings

Between December 8, 2014 and January 7, 2015, five putative securities class action complaints were filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY). These actions were consolidated on February 17, 2015 (the “Consolidated Securities Class Action”). The Court appointed a lead plaintiff, Universities Superannuation Scheme Limited (“USS”), on March 4, 2015. USS filed a consolidated amended complaint (“CAC”) on March 27, 2015 that purported to be on behalf of investors who:

58


 
 

 

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

a)    purchased or otherwise acquired Petrobras securities traded on the NYSE or pursuant to other transactions in the U.S. during the period January 22, 2010 and March 19, 2015, inclusive (the “Class Period”), and were damaged thereby;

b)   purchased or otherwise acquired during the Class Period certain notes issued in 2012 pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC filed in 2009 , or certain notes issued in 2013  or 2014 pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC in 2012 , and were damaged thereby; and

c)    purchased or otherwise acquired Petrobras securities on the Brazilian stock exchange during the Class Period, who also purchased or otherwise acquired Petrobras securities traded on the NYSE or pursuant to other transactions in the U.S. during the same period.

The CAC alleged, among other things, that in the Company’s press releases, filings with the SEC and other communications, the Company made materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the value of its assets, the amounts of the Company’s expenses and net income, the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, and the Company’s anti-corruption policies, due to alleged corruption purportedly in connection with certain contracts, which allegedly artificially inflated the market value of the Company’s securities.

On April 17, 2015, Petrobras, Petrobras Global Finance - PGF and the underwriters of notes issued by PGF (the “Underwriter Defendants”) filed a motion to dismiss the CAC.

On July 9, 2015, the judge presiding over the Consolidated Securities Class Action ruled on the motion to dismiss, partially granting the Company’s motion. Among other decisions, the judge dismissed claims relating to certain debt securities issued in 2012 under the Securities Act of 1933, as time barred by the Securities Act’s statute of repose and ruled claims relating to securities purchased on the Brazilian stock exchange must be arbitrated, as established in the Company’s bylaws. The judge rejected other arguments presented in the motion to dismiss the CAC and, as a result, the Consolidated Securities Class Action continued with respect to other claims.

As allowed by the judge, a second consolidated amended complaint was filed on July 16, 2015, a third consolidated amended complaint was filed on September 1, 2015, among other things extending the Class Period through July 28, 2015 and adding Petrobras America, Inc. as a defendant, and a fourth consolidated amended complaint (“FAC”) was filed on November 30, 2015. The FAC, brought by lead plaintiff and three other plaintiffs – Union Asset Management Holding AG (“Union”), Employees’ Retirement System of the State of Hawaii (“Hawaii”), and North Carolina Department of State Treasurer (“North Carolina”) (collectively, “class plaintiffs”) – brings those claims alleged in the CAC that were not dismissed or were allowed to be re-pleaded under the judge’s July 9, 2015 ruling.

On October 1st and December 7, 2015, Petrobras, PGF, Petrobras America, Inc. and the Underwriter Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the FAC.

On December 20, 2015, the judge ruled on the motion to dismiss the FAC, partially granting the motion. Among other decisions, the judge dismissed the claims of USS and Union based on their purchases of notes issued by PGF for failure to plead that they purchased the notes in U.S. transactions. The judge also dismissed claims under the Securities Act of 1933 for certain purchases for which class plaintiffs had failed to plead the element of reliance. The judge rejected other arguments presented in the motion to dismiss the FAC and, as a result, the Consolidated Securities Class Action will continue with respect to the remaining claims.

On October 15, 2015, class plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification in the Consolidated Securities Class Action, and on November 6, 2015, Petrobras, PGF, Petrobras America, Inc. and the Underwriter Defendants opposed the motion. On February 2, 2016, the judge granted plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, certifying a Securities Act Class represented by Hawaii and North Carolina and an Exchange Act Class represented by USS. On June 15, 2016, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted Petrobras’ motion requesting interlocutory appellate review of the class certification.  Defendants filed their opening briefs on July 21, 2016.  Plaintiffs opposition brief is due on August 25, 2016, and replies are due on September 8, 2016.  Oral argument is scheduled to occur no sooner than September 26, 2016.   Petrobras and the other defendants moved in district court for a stay of all district court proceedings pending the Second Circuit’s decision on the merits of the appeal of the class certification.  On June 24, 2016, the judge denied the motion. On June 28, 2016, Petrobras and other defendants moved the Second Circuit for a stay of the district court proceedings pending that Court’s decision on the merits of the appeal. On August 2, 2016, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted Defendants’ motion to stay all district court proceedings pending a decision on the appeal of the class certification.

On June 27, 2016, the parties filed motions for summary judgment.  Further summary judgment briefing is stayed pursuant to the Second Circuit’s Order.

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

In addition to the Consolidated Securities Class Action, to date, 29 lawsuits have been filed by individual investors before the same judge in the SDNY (two of which have been stayed), and one has been filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, consisting of allegations similar to those in the Consolidated Securities Class Action. On August 21, 2015, Petrobras, PGF and underwriters of notes issued by PGF filed a motion to dismiss certain of the individual lawsuits, and on October 15, 2015, the judge ruled on the motion to dismiss, partially granting the motion. Among other decisions, the judge dismissed several Exchange Act, Securities Act and state law claims as barred by the relevant statutes of repose. The judge denied other portions of the motion to dismiss and, as a result, these actions will continue with respect to other claims brought by these class plaintiffs.

On October 31, 2015, the judge ordered that the individual lawsuits before him in the SDNY and the Consolidated Securities Class Action shall be tried together in a single trial that will not exceed a total of eight weeks.

On November 5, 2015, the judge scheduled the trial to begin on September 19, 2016, however, the trial is now stayed due to the above mentioned Second Circuit decision of August 2, 2016, staying all district court proceedings. On November 18, 2015, the judge ordered that any individual action filed after December 31, 2015 will be stayed in all respects until after the completion of the trial.

These actions involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties and depend on a number of factors such as: the novelty of the legal theories, the information produced in discovery, the timing of court decisions, discovery from adverse parties or third parties, rulings by the court on key issues, analysis by retained experts, and the possibility that the parties negotiate in good faith toward a resolution.

In addition, the claims asserted are broad, span a multi-year period and involve a wide range of activities, and the contentions of the plaintiffs in the Consolidated Securities Class Action and the individual additional actions concerning the amount of alleged damages are varied and, at this stage, their impact on the course of the litigation is complex and uncertain. The uncertainties inherent in all such matters affect the amount and timing of the ultimate resolution of these actions. As a result, the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of eventual loss arising from the litigation.

Depending on the outcome of the litigation, we may be required to pay substantial amounts, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, its consolidated results of operations or its consolidated cash flows for an individual reporting period.

The Company has engaged a U.S. firm as legal counsel and intends to defend these actions vigorously.

30.        Collateral for crude oil exploration concession agreements

The Company has granted collateral to the Brazilian Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis - ANP) in connection with the performance of the Minimum Exploration Programs established in the concession agreements for petroleum exploration areas in the total amount of R$ 7,618, of which R$ 3,282 were still in force as of June 30, 2016, net of commitments undertaken. The collateral comprises crude oil from previously identified producing fields, pledged as collateral, amounting to R$ 2,721 and bank guarantees of R$ 561.

31.        Risk management

The Company is exposed to a variety of risks arising from its operations, including price risk (related to crude oil and oil products prices), foreign exchange rates risk, interest rates risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Corporate risk management is part of the Company’s commitment to act ethically and comply with the legal and regulatory requirements of the countries where it operates. To manage market and financial risks the Company preferably takes structuring measures through an adequate capital and leverage management. The Company takes account of risks in its business decisions and manages any such risk in an integrated manner in order to enjoy the benefits of diversification.

A summary of the derivative financial instruments positions held by the Company and recognized in other current assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2016, as well as the amounts recognized in the statement of income and other comprehensive income and the guarantees given is set out as follows:

31.1.   Risk management of price risk (related to crude oil and oil products prices)

Petrobras does not regularly use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to commodity price cycles related to products purchased and sold to fulfill operational needs. Derivatives are used as hedging instruments to manage the price risk of certain short-term commercial transactions.

31.2.   Foreign exchange risk management

Petrobras seeks to identify and manage foreign exchange rate risks based on an integrated analysis of its businesses with the benefits of diversification. The Company’s short-term risk management involves choosing the currency in which to hold cash, such as the Brazilian Real, U.S. dollar or other currency. The foreign exchange risk management strategy may involve the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge certain liabilities, minimizing foreign exchange rate risk exposure.

a)        Cash Flow Hedge involving the Company’s  future exports

The Company designates hedging relationships to account for the effects of the existing hedge between a portion of its long-term debt obligations (denominated in U.S. dollars) and its highly probable U.S. dollar denominated future export revenues, so that gains or losses associated with the hedged transaction (the highly probable future exports) and the hedging instrument (debt obligations) are recognized in the statement of income in the same periods.

A portion of principal amounts and accrued interest (non-derivative financial instruments), as well as foreign exchange rate forward contracts (derivative financial instruments) have been designated as hedging instruments. Derivative financial instruments expired during the year were replaced by principal and interest amounts in the hedging relationships for which they had been designated.

Individual hedging relationships were designated in a one-to-one proportion, meaning that a portion of the highly probable future exports for each month will be the hedged transaction of an individual hedging relationship, hedged by a portion of the company’s long-term debt. Only a portion of the Company’s forecast exports are considered highly probable.

Whenever a portion of future exports for a certain period for which a hedging relationship has been designated is no longer highly probable, the Company revokes the designation and the cumulative foreign exchange gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income remain separately in equity until the forecast exports occur.

If a portion of future exports for which a hedging relationship has been designated is no longer expected to occur, any related cumulative foreign exchange gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income from the date the hedging relationship was designated to the date the Company revoked the designation is immediately recycled from equity to the statement of income.

Mainly due to the decrease in international oil prices, a portion of future exports for which a hedging relationship had been designated was no longer expected to occur or did not occur in the first half of 2016. Therefore, hedging relationship was revoked and a portion was reclassified to the statement of income in amount of R$ 1,024 in the first half of 2016.

The carrying amounts, the fair value as of June 30, 2016, and a schedule of expected reclassifications to the statement of income of cumulative losses recognized in other comprehensive income (shareholders’ equity) based on a US$ 1.00 / R$ 3.2098 exchange rate are set out below:

Additional hedging relationships may be revoked or additional reclassification adjustments from equity to the statement of income may occur as a result of changes in forecast export prices and export volumes following a review in the Company’s business plan. Based on a sensitivity analysis considering a US$ 10/barrel decrease in Brent prices stress scenario, when compared to the Brent price projections in our most recent update of the 2015-2019 Business and Management Plan (Plano de Negócios e Gestão PNG), a R$ 1,141 reclassification adjustment from equity to the statement of income would occur.

A schedule of expected reclassification of cumulative foreign exchange losses recognized in other comprehensive income to the statement of income as of June 30, 2016 is set out below:

b)        Cash flow hedges involving swap contracts – Yen x Dollar

The Company has a cross currency swap to fix in U.S. dollars the payments related to bonds denominated in Japanese yen and does not intend to settle these contracts before the maturity. The relationship between the derivative and the bonds was designated for cash flow hedge accounting.

c)         Sensitivity analysis for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments

A sensitivity analysis is set out below, showing the probable scenario for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments, computed based on external data along with stressed scenarios (a 25% and a 50% change in the foreign exchange rates), except for assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, when transacted in a currency equivalent to their respective functional currencies.

Notes to the financial statements

(Expressed in millions of Reais, unless otherwise indicated)

 

31.3.   Interest rate risk management

The Company considers that interest rate risk does not create a significant exposure and therefore, preferably does not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, except for specific situations encountered by certain subsidiaries of Petrobras.

31.4.   Credit risk

Credit risk management in Petrobras aims at minimizing risk of not collecting receivables, financial deposits or collateral from third parties or financial institutions through efficient credit analysis, granting and management based on quantitative and qualitative parameters that are appropriate for each market segment in which the Company operates.

The commercial credit portfolio is broad and diversified and comprises clients from the domestic market and from foreign markets. Credit granted to financial institutions is related to collaterals received, cash surplus invested and derivative financial instruments. It is spread among “investment grade” international banks rated by international rating agencies and Brazilian banks.

31.5.   Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is represented by the possibility of a shortage of cash or other financial assets in order to settle the Company’s obligations on the agreed dates and is managed by the Company based on policies such as: centralized cash management, in order to optimize the level of cash and cash equivalents held and to reduce working capital; a minimum cash level to ensure that cash needed for investments and short-term obligations is met even in adverse market conditions; increasing the number of investors in the domestic and international markets through funding opportunities, preserving a strong presence in the international capital markets and searching for new funding sources, including new markets and financial products, as well as funds under the divestment program.

During 2015, the Company used traditional funding sources (export credit agencies – ECAs, banking market, capital markets and development banks) to obtain the necessary funding to repay debt and fund its capital expenditures. In the first half of 2016, the Company raised approximately US$ 8 billion through proceeds from long-term financing (mainly international capital market), of which US$ 5.98 billion were used to repurchase global notes previously issued.

A term sheet signed in first quarter of 2016 with the China Development Bank CDB to obtain US$10 billion through financing agreements is still being negotiated.

A maturity schedule of the Company’s finance debt (undiscounted), including face value and interest payments is set out following:

32.          Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

Fair values are determined based on market prices, when available, or, in the absence thereof, on the present value of expected future cash flows. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, short term debt and other non-current assets and liabilities are equivalent or do not differ significantly from their carrying amounts.

The hierarchy of the fair values of the financial assets and liabilities, recorded on a recurring basis, is set out below:

Level 1: inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2: inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

33.        Subsequent events

33.1.   Global notes issued in international capital markets

On July 13, 2016, the Company, through its subsidiary Petrobras Global Trading – PGF, completed the US$ 3 billion bond sale on the international capital markets (global notes), of which US$ 1.75 billion will mature in 5 years and US$ 1.25 billion will mature in 10 years. This sale constituted a reopening of a series of securities maturing in 2021 and 2026, originally issued on May 23, 2016, in the amount of US$ 6.75 billion.

The Company used the net proceeds from this sale to repurchase global notes previously issued, maturing from February 3, 2017 to March 15, 2019, and for corporate purposes in general.

33.2.   Disposal of distribution assets in Chile

On July 22, 2016, the Company signed a sale and purchase agreement with the Southern Cross Group for 100% of Petrobras Chile Distribuición Ltda (PCD), held through Petrobras Caribe Ltda.

The estimated proceed from this deal is US$ 464 million, considering amounts from distribution of cash surplus before the transaction closing, payments to be made by Southern Cross in the closing day and estimated price adjustments within 65 working days after the closing.

The deal’s completion is subject to certain precedent conditions, as established in the agreement and customary for this kind of operation, expected to occur in up to three or four months.

33.3.   Disposal of Petrobras Argentina

On July 27, 2016, the Company concluded the disposal of its entire 67.19% interest in Petrobras Argentina (PESA), owned through the subsidiary Petrobras Participaciones S.L. (“PPSL”), to Pampa Energia in amount of US$ 897 million. This amount is still subject to adjustments.

As part of this transaction, the Company intends to acquire 33.6% of the concession of Rio Neuquén in Argentina and 100% of Colpa Caranda asset in Bolivia for an amount of US$ 52 million, both subject to approvals from PESA’s Board of Directors and Bolivia Federal Government, respectively.

33.4.       Disposal of interest in exploratory block BM-S-8

On July 28, 2016 the Board of Directors of Petrobras approved the disposal of the Company’s 66% interests in the exploratory block BM – S-8 to Statoil, which includes the Carará area located in the pre-sal of Santos Basin, for an amount of US$ 2.5 billion. The other current partners in this block can exercise their right of preference in this transaction, allowing them to acquire the Company’s interest by the same amount offered by Statoil, at least.
