Independent auditor's report

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

 

 

 

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. Petrobras ("Company" or "Petrobras"), which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2012 and the statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

 

We have also audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras and its subsidiaries ("Consolidated"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2012 and the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

 

Management's responsibility
for the financial statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company financial statements in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, and for the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and accounting practices adopted in Brazil, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of 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 these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

 

3


 
 

 

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the 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 entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the 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 parent company
financial statements

 

In our opinion, the parent company financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras as at December 31, 2012, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

 

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 Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2012, and their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

 

Emphasis of matter

 

As discussed in note 2 to these financial statements, the parent company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. In the case of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras, these practices differ from IFRS applicable to separate financial statements only in relation to the measurement of investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly-controlled entities based on equity accounting, while IFRS requires measurement based on cost or fair value, and the maintenance of the balances of deferred charges existing as at December 31, 2008, which are being amortized. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

 

Other matters

 

Audit of prior-year information

 

The financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2012, presented for comparison purposes, were audited by another firm of auditors whose report, dated February 9, 2012, expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements.

Statements of added value, business
segment reporting and social balance

 

We have also audited the parent company and consolidated statements of value added for the year ended December 31, 2012, the presentation of which is required by Brazilian Corporation Law for public companies, the consolidated statements of business segment reporting and the consolidated accounting information contained in the social balance, which are the responsibility of the Company's management, considered as supplementary information by IFRS, which does not require the presentation of the statements of value added and social balance. These statements were submitted to the same audit procedures described above and, in our opinion, are fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

2.1              Business segment reporting

 

The information related to the operating segments (business areas) of the Company is prepared based on items directly attributable to each segment, as well as items that can be allocated to each segment on a reasonable basis.

 

The measurement of segment results includes transactions carried out with third parties and transactions between business areas which are charged at internal transfer prices defined between the areas using methods based on market parameters.

 

Information per business area are prepared and reported in accordance with the prevailing organizational structure, including the business areas set out below:

 

a) Exploration and Production: This segment covers the activities of exploration, development and production of crude oil, NGL (natural gas liquid) and natural gas in Brazil, for the purpose of supplying, primarily, our domestic refineries and also selling the crude oil surplus and oil products produced in the natural gas processing plants to the domestic and foreign markets. The exploration and production segment also operates through partnerships with other companies.

 

b) Refining, Transportation and Marketing: This segment covers  the refining, logistics, transport and trading of crude oil and oil products activities, exporting of ethanol, extraction and processing of shale, as well as holding interests in companies from the petrochemical sector in Brazil.

 

c) Gas and Power: This segment covers the activities of transportation and trading of natural gas produced in Brazil and imported natural gas, transportation and trading of LNG (liquid natural gas),  generation and trading of electricity, as well as holding interests in transporters and distributors of natural gas and in thermoelectric power stations in Brazil, in addition to being responsible for the fertilizer business.

 

d) Biofuel: This segment covers the activities of production of biodiesel and its co-products, as well as the ethanol-related activities: equity investments, production and trading of ethanol, sugar and the surplus electric power generated from sugarcane bagasse.

 

e) Distribution: This segment includes mainly the activities of Petrobras Distribuidora, which operates through its own retail network and wholesale channels to sell oil products, ethanol and vehicle natural gas in Brazil.

 

f) International: This segment covers the activities of exploration and production of oil and gas, refining, transportation and marketing, gas and power, and distribution, carried out outside of Brazil in a number of countries in the Americas, Africa, Europe and Asia.

 

The corporate segment comprises the items that cannot be attributed to the other segments, notably those related to corporate financial management, corporate overhead and other expenses, including actuarial expenses related to the pension and medical benefits for retired employees and their dependents.

 

2.2              Statement of added value

 

The statements of added value present information related to the value added by the Company (wealth created) and how it has been distributed.

2.3              Social balance

 

The Social Balance presents social and environmental indices, number of employees and related information, as well as relevant information with respect to the exercise of corporate citizenship. Some information was obtained through the Company’s subsidiary records and managerial information. Social balance is presented as additional information.

 

2.4              Functional currency

 

The functional currency of Petrobras (Parent Company) and all Brazilian subsidiaries is the Brazilian Real. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries and special purpose entities that operate in the international economic environment is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of Petrobras Argentina is the Argentine Peso.

 

The income statements and statement of cash flows of non-Brazilian Real functional currency subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates in stable economies are translated into Brazilian Real using the monthly average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Assets and liabilities are translated into Brazilian Real at the closing rate at the date of the financial statements and the equity items are translated using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured.

 

All exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of non-Brazilian Real subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates are recognized as cumulative translation adjustments (CTA) within accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholders’ equity and transferred to profit or loss in the periods when the realization of the investments affects profit or loss.

 

2.5              Use of estimates and judgments

 

The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions for certain assets, liabilities and other transactions. These estimates include oil and gas reserves, pension and medical benefits liabilities, depreciation, depletion and amortization, decommissioning costs, provisions for legal proceedings, fair value of financial instruments, present value adjustments  of trade receivables and payables from relevant transactions, and income tax and social contribution on net income (CSLL). Notwithstanding  Management uses assumptions and judgments that are reviewed periodically, the actual results could differ from these estimates.

4       Summary of significant accounting policies

 

The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all periods presented in these individual and consolidated financial statements.

 

4.1       Financial assets and liabilities

 

4.1.1 Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, term deposits with banks and short-term highly liquid financial investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value and have a maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

 

4.1.2 Marketable securities

 

Marketable securities are classified on initial recognition based on the management’s business model for managing those securities as set out below:

 

- Trading securities - financial assets purchased and held for the purpose of resale in the short term and measured at fair value. Interest, inflation indexation charges and gains or losses arising from measurement at fair value are recognized in profit or loss;

 

24 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

- Held-to-maturity securities - financial assets for which management has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are initially recognized at acquisition cost  and are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest and inflation indexation charges are recognized in profit or loss;

 

- Available-for-sale securities - non-derivative financial assets that are classified as available-for-sale or that are not classified in any other category. Available-for-sale securities are measured at fair value. Interest and inflation indexation charges are recognized in profit or loss; and gains or losses arising from measurement at fair value are recognized within other comprehensive income, in the shareholders’ equity and reclassified to profit or loss, in the periods when securities are sold.

 

4.1.3             Trade receivables

 

Trade receivables are initially measured at the fair value of the consideration to be received and, subsequently, at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method and adjusted for credit losses.

 

The Company recognizes a provision for impairment of trade receivables when there is evidence that some of its accounts receivable are uncollectible, due to insolvency, defaults or to a significant probability of a debtor filing for bankruptcy or bankruptcy protection.

 

4.1.4             Loans and financing (Debt)

 

Loans and financing are initially recognized at fair value less transaction costs incurred and, after initial recognition, are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

 

4.1.5             Derivative financial instruments and hedge operations

 

Derivative financial instruments are recognized in the statement of financial position as assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value.

 

The gains or losses arising from measurement at fair value of derivative instruments, other than hedging relationships qualified for hedge accounting are recognized in profit or loss as a finance income (finance expense).

 

In hedging relationships which qualify for cash flow hedge accounting, gains or losses relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognized within other comprehensive income, in the shareholders’ equity and reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. The gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognized in profit or loss.

 

4.2              Inventories 

 

Inventories are determined by the weighted average cost method and comprise:

  

-       Raw material - mainly comprises crude oil and is stated at the lower of the average cost of crude oil production and imports, and their net realizable value;

 

25 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

-       Products - comprise oil products and biofuels, and are stated at the lower of the average refining or purchase costs and their net realizable value;

 

-       Maintenance materials and supplies – comprise materials and supplies used in the operation of the Company and consumed, other than raw material, and are stated at the average purchase cost, not exceeding replacement cost.

 

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less estimated cost of completion and estimated expenses to complete its sale.

 

Imports in transit are stated at the identified cost.

 

4.3         Investments in other companies

 

The Company accounts for its investments in  jointly controlled entities and associates on which the Company has significant influence over the financial and operating policy decisions by applying the equity method of accounting. In the individual financial statements, the Parent Company also accounts for its investments in subsidiaries by applying the equity method of accounting.

 

4.4         Business combinations and goodwill

 

The Company determines on a case-by-case basis whether a transaction is a business combination or an asset acquisition. Combinations of entities under common control are not accounted for as business combinations.

 

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a business combination are accounted for by applying the acquisition method, based on which assets and liabilities are measured at their acquisition-date fair values.

The excess of the acquisition cost over the acquisition-date fair value of the net assets acquired (the net of the amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed) is recognized as goodwill in intangible assets. In the case of a bargain purchase, a gain is recognized in profit or loss when the acquisition cost is lower than the acquisition-date fair value of the net assets acquired.

 

Changes in ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in loss of control of the subsidiary are equity transactions. Any excess of the amounts paid/received over the carrying value of the ownership interest acquired/disposed is recognized in shareholders’ equity as an additional paid in capital.

 

Goodwill arising from investments in associates and jointly controlled entities without change of control is accounted for as part of these investments. It is measured by the excess of the consideration transferred over the Company’s interest in net assets’ fair value.

 

4.5              Oil and Gas exploration and development expenditures

 

The costs incurred in connection with the exploration, appraisal, development and production of oil and gas are accounted for using the successful efforts method of accounting, as set out below:

 

- Costs related to geological and geophysical activities are expensed when incurred.

 

- Amounts paid for obtaining concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas (capitalized acquisition costs) are initially capitalized.

26 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

- Costs directly associated with exploratory wells pending determination of proved reserves are capitalized within property, plant and equipment. Exploratory wells that have found oil and gas reserves, but those reserves cannot be classified as proved, continue to be capitalized if the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and progress on assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project is under way. An internal commission of technical executives of Petrobras reviews these conditions monthly for each well, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations.

 

- Costs related to exploratory wells drilled in areas of unproved reserves are expensed when determined to be dry or non-economical (did not encounter potentially economic oil and gas quantities).

 

- Costs related to the construction, installation and completion of infrastructure facilities, such as platforms, pipelines, drilling of development wells and other related costs incurred in connection with the development of proved reserve areas and successful exploratory wells are capitalized within property, plant and equipment and depreciated from the commencement of production as described below.

 

4.6              Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at the cost to acquire or construct, including all costs necessary to bring the asset to working condition for its intended use, adjusted during hyperinflationary periods, as well as by the present value of the estimated cost of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site and reduced by accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

 

Rights over tangible assets to be used in the normal course of business, arising from transactions which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the asset (finance leases) are initially recognized at the lower of the fair value of the assets or the present value of the minimum payments of the contract. Capitalized lease assets are depreciated on a systematic basis consistent with the depreciation policy the Company adopts for property, plant and equipment that are owned. Where there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, capitalized lease assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.

 

Expenditures on major maintenance of industrial units and vessels are capitalized if the recognition criteria are met. These comprise the cost of replacement assets or parts of assets, equipment assembly services,  as well as other related costs. Such maintenance occurs, on average, every four years and the respective expenses are depreciated as production costs through the date of the beginning of the following stoppage.

 

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the costs of these assets. Borrowing costs of funds borrowed generally are capitalized based on the Company’s weighted average of the cost of borrowings outstanding applied over the balance of assets under construction. Borrowing costs are amortized during the useful life or by applying the unit-of-production method to the related assets.

 

Depreciation, depletion and amortization of proved oil and gas producing properties are accounted for pursuant to the unit-of-production method applied to the depreciable amount of the asset as set out as follows: i) Depreciation (amortization) of oil and gas producing properties, including related equipment and facilities is computed based on a unit-of-production basis over the proved developed oil and gas reserves, applied on a field by field basis; ii) the straight-line method is used for other assets, such as assets with a useful life shorter than the life of the field or related to fields with different development stages. iii) Amortization of amounts paid for obtaining concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas of producing properties, such as signature bonus (capitalized acquisition costs) is recognized using the unit-of- production method, computed based on the units of production over the total proved oil and gas reserves, applied on a field by field basis.

27 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

Estimates of reserves, prepared in manner consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) definitions by the Company’s technicians, are reviewed at least annually and on interim basis if material changes occur (for depreciation, depletion and amortization purposes).

 

Except for land (which is not depreciated), other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line basis. See note 11 for further information about the estimated useful life by class of assets.

 

4.7     Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets are measured at the acquisition cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses and comprise rights and concessions, including the signature bonus paid for obtaining concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas (capitalized acquisition costs) and the Onerous Assignment Agreement, referring to the right to carry out prospection and drilling activities for oil, natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons located in blocks in the pre-salt area (“Cessão Onerosa”); public service concessions; trademarks; patents; software and goodwill. In the individual financial statements, goodwill arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities is accounted for as part of these investments.

 

Signature bonuses paid for obtaining concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas and amounts related to the Onerous Assignment Agreement are initially capitalized within intangible assets and are transferred to property, plant and equipment upon recognition of proved reserves.

 

Signature bonuses and amounts related to the Onerous Assignment Agreement are not amortized until they are transferred to property, plant and equipment. Intangible assets with a finite useful life, other than amounts paid for obtaining concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas of producing properties, are amortized over the useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis.

 

Internally generated intangible assets other than development costs meeting recognition criteria are not capitalized and are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are tested annually for impairment considering individual assets or cash-generating units. Their useful lives are reviewed annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for those assets. If they do not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for on a prospective basis.

 

4.8       Deferred Assets

 

The balance of deferred assets as of December 31, 2008 is presented in the individual statement of financial positions for the parent company and will be amortized in up to 10 years, subject to impairment testing in accordance with Law 11,941/09.

 

4.9              Impairment 

 

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with definite useful lives and deferred assets are tested for impairment when there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Assets related to exploration and development of oil and gas and assets that have indefinite useful lives, such as goodwill acquired in business combinations are tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment.

 

28 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

The impairment test comprises a comparison of the carrying amount of an individual asset or a cash-generating unit with its recoverable amount. Whether the recoverable amount of the unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying amount to the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Considering the specificity of the Company’s assets, value in use is generally used by the Company for impairment testing purposes, except when specifically indicated.

 

Value in use is estimated based on the present value of the risk-adjusted (for specific risks) future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset or cash-generating unit (based on assumptions that represent the Company’s best estimates), discounted at a pre-tax discount rate. This rate is obtained from the Company’s weighted average cost of capital post-tax (WACC). Cash flow projections are mainly based on the following assumptions: prices based on the Company’s most recent strategic plan; production curves associated with existing projects in the Company's portfolio, operating costs reflecting current market conditions, and investments required for carrying out the projects.

 

For the impairment test, assets are grouped at the smallest identifiable group that generates largely independent cash inflows from other assets or group of assets (the cash-generating unit). Assets related to exploration and development of oil and gas are tested annually for impairment on a field by field basis.

 

Reversal of previously recognized impairment losses is permitted for assets other than goodwill.

 

4.10          Leases 

 

Leases in which the Company has substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership are recognized as finance lease liabilities. When the Company is the lessor the finance lease is recognized as a receivable.

 

If a lease does not transfer all the risks and rewards, it is classified as an operating lease. Operating leases are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

 

4.11          Decommissioning costs

 

Decommissioning costs are future obligations to perform environmental restoration, dismantle and remove a facility as it terminates operations due to the exhaustion of the area or to economic conditions. Costs related to the abandonment and dismantling of areas are recognized as part of the cost of an asset (associated with the obligation) based on the present value of the expected future cash outflows, discounted at a risk-free credit adjusted rate when a future obligation exists and can be reliably measured. A corresponding provision is recognized as a liability. Unwinding of the discount is recognized as a financial expense, when incurred. The asset is depreciated similarly to other assets, based on the class of the asset.

 

Future decommissioning costs for oil and natural gas producing properties are recognized on a field by field basis, when a field is declared to be commercial and are revised annually. Decommissioning costs related to proved developed oil and gas reserves are depreciated by applying the unit-of-production method, computed based on a unit-of-production basis over the proved developed oil and gas reserves, applied on a field by field basis.

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

4.12          Income tax (IR) and social contribution on profits (CSLL)

 

Income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. The Company has adopted the Transition Tax Regime in Brazil (RTT) in accordance with Law 11,941/09 and therefore the taxable profit is computed based on the criteria of Law 6,404/76 before the amendments introduced by Law 11,638/07. Temporary differences arising from the Transition Tax Regime were recognized as deferred income taxes and liabilities.  

 

Taxable profit differs from accounting profit due to certain adjustments required by tax regulations. Temporary differences are differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying amount. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary tax differences, available tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

 

4.13          Employee benefits (Post-Employment)

 

Actuarial commitments related to post-employment benefit plans and health-care plans are recognized as liabilities in the statement of financial position based on actuarial calculations which are revised annually by an independent actuary, using the projected unit credit method, net of the fair value of plan assets, when applicable, out of which the obligations are to be directly settled. The increases in the present value of the obligation resulting from employee service in the current period are recognized in profit or loss.

 

Under the projected credit unit method, each period of service gives rise to an additional unit of benefit entitlement and each unit is measured separately to determine the final obligation.

 

Actuarial gains and losses arising from changes in actuarial assumptions and experience adjustments are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in each plan, in accordance with the corridor method.

 

Actuarial assumptions related to the variables that will determine the ultimate cost of providing post-retirement benefits include biological and economic assumptions, medical costs estimates, as well as historical data related to expenses incurred and employee contributions.

 

The Company also contributes amounts to defined contribution plans, that are expensed when incurred and are computed based on a percentage over salaries.

 

4.14          Share Capital and Stockholders’ Compensation

 

Share capital comprises common shares and preferred shares. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are classified as additional paid in capital and shown (net of tax) in shareholders’ equity as a deduction from the proceeds.

 

Preferred shares have priority on returns of capital and dividends, which are based on the higher amount of 3% over the net book value of shareholders equity for preferred shares, or 5% of the share capital for preferred shares. Preferred shares do not grant any voting rights; are non-convertible into common shares and participate under the same terms as common shares, in capital increases resulting from the capitalization of reserves and profits.

 

Dividend distribution comprises dividends and interest on capital determined in accordance with the limits defined in the Company’s bylaws.

30 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

Interest on capital is a form of dividend distribution which is deductible for tax purposes in Brazil.  Tax benefits from the deduction of interest on capital are recognized in profit or loss.

 

4.15          Government grants

 

A government grant is recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with the conditions attached to the grant.

 

Government grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes the related costs which they are intended to compensate as expenses. Government grants related to assets are initially recognized as deferred income and thereafter are transferred to profit or loss over the useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis.

 

4.16     Recognition of revenue, costs and expenses

 

Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue and the costs incurred or to be incurred in the transaction can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for products sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of returns, discounts and sales taxes.

  

Revenue from the sale of crude oil and oil products, petrochemical products, natural gas, biofuels and other related products are recognized when the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement nor effective control over the products sold and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, which is usually when legal title passes to the customer, pursuant to the terms of the sales contract. Sales revenues from freight and other services provided are recognized based on the stage of completion of the transaction.

Finance income and expense mainly comprise interest income on financial investments and government bonds, interest expense on debt, gains and losses on marketable securities measured at fair value, as well as net exchange and inflation indexation charges. Finance expense does not include borrowing costs directly attributable to the construction of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to become operational, which are capitalized as part of the costs of these assets. 

 

Revenue, costs and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis.

 

4.17     New standards and interpretations

 

New standards and amendments to standards and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2012, none of which had a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements for 2012, are set out below:

Standards

Brief description

Effective Date (*)

Amendment to IAS 1

‘Financial statement presentation’, regarding other comprehensive income

Requires for entities to group items presented in ‘other comprehensive income’ (OCI) on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently (reclassification adjustments).

January 1, 2013

Amendments to IAS 19

“Employee Benefits ”

Eliminates the corridor method for recognizing actuarial gains or losses, and require the calculation of finance costs on a net funding basis.
Simplifies the presentation of changes in assets and liabilities of defined benefit plans and expands the disclosure requirements.

January 1, 2013

IFRS 10

"Consolidated Financial Statements"

Defines principles and requirements for the preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities.
Establishes the concept of control as the basis for consolidation and sets out how to apply the principle of control to identify whether an investor controls an investee and therefore must consolidate the investee.

January 1, 2013

IFRS 11

“Joint Arrangements”

Establishes principles for disclosure of financial statements of entities that are parties of joint agreements. There are two types of joint arrangement: joint operations and joint ventures. Joint operations arise where a joint operator has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement and hence accounts for its interest in assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.
Joint ventures arise where the joint operator has rights to the net assets of the arrangement and hence equity accounts for its interest. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures is no longer allowed.

January 1, 2013

IFRS 12

“Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”

Consolidates all the requirements of disclosures that an entity should carry out when participating in one or more entities, including joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and other off balance sheet vehicles.

January 1, 2013

IFRS 13

“Fair Value Measurement”

Provides a precise definition of fair value , explains how to calculate it (one single source of measurement )and determines what must be disclosed.
The requirements do not extend the use of fair value accounting but provide guidance on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards.

January 1, 2013

Amendments to IFRS 7

Disclosures – Offesetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

Establishes disclosure requirements for compensation agreements of financial assets and liabilities.

January 1, 2013

January 1, 2013

IAS 28 (revised 2011)

"Associates and joint ventures"

Includes the requirements for joint ventures, as well as associates, to be equity accounted following the issue of IFRS 11.

January 1, 2013

IFRS 9

"Financial instruments" and Amendments

IFRS 9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model and establishes two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The basis of classification depends on the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
The guidance in IAS 39 on impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting continues to apply. The Amendment postpones the date of enforcement from 2013 to 2015 . Also eliminates the requirement for republication of comparative information and requires additional disclosures about the transition to IFRS 9.

January 1, 2015

(*) Effective for annual periods beginning on or after these dates.

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

(In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

The estimated impact that initial application of Amendments to IAS 19 is expected to have, due to the elimination of the corridor method (which allowed companies to defer actuarial gains and losses) is an increase of R$ 21.1 billion in our net actuarial liability, as well as a corresponding increase of R$ 6.1 billion in our deferred tax assets and a decrease of R$ 15 billion in the shareholders' equity of the Company.

 

None of the other amendments and new standards listed above is expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.

9                   Mergers, split-offs and other information about investments

 

Merger of Petroquisa and split-off of BRK

 

On January 27, 2012, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Petrobras approved the merger of Petrobras Química S.A. (Petroquisa) into Petrobras, the partial split-off of BRK Investimentos Petroquímicos S.A. (BRK) and the merger of the split-off portion into Petrobras, without capital increase.

 

Signing of settlement agreement – Pasadena Refinery

 

On June 29, 2012, the Company entered into an out-of-court settlement to terminate all existing lawsuits between its subsidiaries and Belgium’s Transcor/Astra Group, which controls Astra Oil Trading NV (Astra), including those related to the arbitration process which, in April 2009, recognized the exercise of Astra’s put option for its stake (50%) in Pasadena Refining System Inc and PRSI Trading Company to Petrobras America S.A. - PAI.

 

The amount of US$ 70 (R$ 140) was recognized in profit or loss in the second quarter of 2012, and the remaining portion had been recognized in prior periods. The total determined in the agreement was US$ 820.5. After the execution of the settlement agreement and the payment of the respective amount (paid when the agreement was signed), both parties gave full and general release of all issues under dispute between them.

 

Fair Value Appraisal of  GBD  

 

The appraisal of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed from the subsidiary Gás Brasiliano Distribuidora S.A. – GBD was concluded in June 2012. Petrobras Gás S.A. - Gaspetro acquired 100% of GBD’s shares in 2011. This appraisal resulted in a purchase price allocation of the total amount of R$ 444 (equivalent to US$ 280 million) to intangible assets of R$ 332 and other assets and liabilities, net of R$ 112. Therefore, no goodwill was recognized.

 

Petrobras Logística de Exploração e Produção S.A. - PBLOG

 

On July 31, 2012, Alberto Pasqualini S.A. - REFAP was renamed Empresa de Logística de E&P S.A., after transferring its refining assets to Petrobras, with the objective of providing logistics services to oil and gas exploration and production operations in Brazil. The shareholders’ equity of the company (that has not yet started to operate) was not affected by the transfer of assets. On November 1, 2012  Empresa de Logística de E&P S.A was renamed Petrobras Logística de Exploração e Produção S.A. - PB-LOG.

Impairment

 

In 2012 the Company recognized impairment losses relating primarily to mature producing fields in Brazil (R$ 294) and to the review of the cash flows expected to be generated by the U.S. Pasadena Refinery operations (R$ 464).

 

Reversals of impairment were recognized in 2012 as the assessments revealed that impairment losses recognized in prior periods related to certain oil and gas fields in Brazil (R$ 224) and in the Suape Petrochemical Complex (R$ 276) decreased or no longer exist.

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

 

At  December 31, 2012, the Company’s intangible assets include R$74.808 related to the Onerous Assignment agreement, entered into in 2010 by Petrobras, the Federal Government (assignor) and the Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e  Biocombustíveis - ANP (regulator and inspector), granting the Company the right to carry out prospection and drilling activities for oil, natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons located in blocks in the pre-salt area (Franco, Florim, Nordeste de Tupi, Entorno de Iara, Sul de Guará e Sul de Tupi), limited to the production of five billion barrels of oil equivalent in up to 40 years and renewable for a further five years upon certain conditions having been met.

 

The agreement establishes that at the time of the declaration of commerciality for the reserves there will be a review of volumes and prices, based on independent technical appraisal reports.

 

43 


 
 

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

  (In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

If the review determines that the value of acquired rights are 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 in the terms of the agreement. If the review determines that the value of the acquired rights are lower than initially paid by the Company, the Federal Government will reimburse the Company for the difference by delivering cash or bonds, subject to budgetary regulations.

 

Once the effects of the aforementioned review become probable and can be reliably measured, the Company will make the respective adjustments to the purchase prices of the rights.

 

The agreement also establishes a compulsory exploration program for each one of the blocks and minimum commitments related to the acquisition of goods and services from Brazilian suppliers in the exploration and development stages, which will be subject to certification by the ANP. In the event of non-compliance, the ANP may apply administrative sanctions pursuant to the terms in the agreement.

 

In compliance with the exploration program, in 2012 the Company concluded the drilling of four wells in the Onerous Assignment area, confirming the potential for hydrocarbon resources in the area. Petrobras will continue to develop its investment program and activities as established in the agreement.

 

12.3 Exploration rights returned to Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis (ANP)

12.5 Service concession agreement - Distribution of piped natural gas

 

At December 31, 2012, intangible assets include service concession agreements related to  piped natural gas distribution in Brazil, in the amount of R$ 498 maturing between 2029 and 2043, which may be extended. According to the agreements, distribution service can be provided to industrial, residential, commercial, automotive, air conditioning, transport, and other sectors.

 

The consideration receivable is a factor of a combination of operating costs and expenses and returns on capital invested. The rates charged for gas distribution are subject to periodic reviews by the state regulatory agency.

 

The agreements establish an indemnity clause for investments made in assets which are subject to return at the end of the service agreement, to be determined based on evaluations and appraisals.

17.6          Receivables from the electricity sector

 

At December 31, 2012, the Company had a total amount of R$3,958 (R$ 3,672 at December, 31, 2011) of receivables from the Brazilian electricity sector, of which R$ 3,351 were classified as non-current assets after negotiations held during the year..

                                                                                         .

The Company supplies fuel to thermoelectric power plants located in the northern region of Brazil, which are direct or indirect subsidiaries of Eletrobras, the Federal Government electric energy company. Part of the costs for supplying fuel to these thermoelectric power stations is borne by the Fuel Consumption Account (Conta de Consumo de Combustível - CCC), managed by Eletrobras.

 

The Company also supplies fuel to Independent Power Producers (Produtores Independentes de Energia - PIE), which are companies created for the purpose of generating power exclusively for Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia S.A. - AME, a direct subsidiary of Eletrobras. The payment of amounts related to the fuel supplied is borne by AME, which transfers funds to the Independent Power Producers.

 

The balance of these receivables at December 31, 2012 was R$ 3,520 (R$ 3,217 at December 31, 2011), of which R$ 2,966 was past due (R$ 2,655 at December 31, 2011).

 

The Company has been using all available resources in order to recover these receivables and, following negotiations, Petrobras received R$ 1 billion on October 1, 2012 from AME.

 

The Company also has electricity supply contracts with AME signed in 2005 by its subsidiary Breitener Energética S.A., which, pursuant to the terms of the agreements, are considered a financial lease of the two thermoelectric power plants. The contracts determine the power plants be returned to AME at the end of the agreement period with no residual value (20-year term). The balance of these receivables was R$ 438 (R$ 455 at December, 31, 2011), none of which was overdue.

17.7          Petroleum and alcohol accounts - Receivables from Federal Government STN

 

At December 31, 2012, the balance of receivables related to the Petroleum and Alcohol accounts was R$ 835 (R$ 832 at December 31, 2011). Pursuant to Provisional Measure 2,181 of August 24, 2001, the Federal Government may settle this balance by using National Treasury Notes in an amount equal to the outstanding balance, or allow the Company to offset the outstanding balance against amounts payable to the Federal Government, including taxes payable, or both options.

 

The Company has provided all the information required by the National Treasury Secretariat (Secretaria do Tesouro Nacional - STN) in order to resolve disputes between the parties and conclude the settlement with the Federal Government.

 

Following several negotiation attempts at the administrative level, the Company decided to file a lawsuit in July 2011 related to collect the receivables.

 

17.8          Compensation of employees and officers

 

The criteria for compensation of employees and officers are established based on the current labor legislation and the Company’s policies related to Positions, Salaries and Benefits.

 

The compensation of employees (including those occupying managerial positions) and officers in the month of December 2012 and December 2011 were:

81,289.05

         

 

 

Petrobras’ key management compensation (which comprises salaries and other short-term benefits) during 2012 was R$ 11.5 (R$ 12.5 in 2011, referring to seven officers and nine board members). At December 31, 2012 the Company had seven officers and ten board members.

 

In 2012 the compensation of board members and officers for the consolidated Petrobras group amounted to R$ 56.6 (R$ 45.0 in 2011).

 

As established in Brazilian Federal Law 12,353/2010, the Board of Directors of Petrobras is now composed of ten members, after the employees’ representative was confirmed in the Annual General Meeting of March 19, 2012.

20.1 Pension plans in Brazil - Defined benefit and variable contribution

 

Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social (Petros) was established by Petrobras as a nonprofit legal entity under private law with administrative and financial autonomy.

a)      Petros Plan - Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social

 

The Petros plan was established by Petrobras in July 1970 as a defined-benefit pension plan to provide post-retirement benefits for employees of the Company and its Brazilian subsidiaries in order to complement government social security benefits. The Petros Plan has been closed to new participants since September 2002.

 

Petros contracts with an independent actuary to perform an annual actuarial review of its costs using the capitalization method for most benefits. The employers (sponsors) make regular contributions in amounts equal to the contributions of the participants (active employees, assisted employees and retired employees), on a parity basis.

 

In the event an eventual deficit is determined, participants of the plan and employers (sponsors) shall cover this deficit, pursuant to Brazilian Law (Constitutional Amendment 20/1998 and Complementary Law 109/2001), on the basis of their respective proportions of regular contributions made to the plan during the year in which the deficit arose.

 

At December 31, 2012, the Terms of Financial Commitment (TFC), signed by Petrobras and Petros in 2008 comprise a balance of R$ 6,279 (R$ 6,008 in the Parent Company), including R$ 379 (R$ 362 in the Parent Company) related to interest expense due in 2013. The TCF are due in 20 years, with 6% p.a. semiannual coupon payments based on the updated balance. The carrying amount of R$ 5,974 related to crude oil and oil products pledged as security for the TFC are presented within inventories and replaced the long-term National Treasury Notes that were previously held as collateral in July 2012

 

The employers' expected contributions to the plan for 2013 are R$ 919 (R$ 873 in the Parent Company).

  (In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

b)      Petros Plan 2 – Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social

 

Petros Plan 2 was established in July 2007 by the Company as a variable contribution plan recognizing past service costs for contributions for the period (from August 2002 to August 29, 2007) in which the Petros Plan was closed and the participants did not have a pension plan, or for those admitted during this period. The plan is open to new participants although there will no longer be payments relating to past service costs.

 

Certain elements of the Petros Plan 2 have defined benefit characteristics, primarily the coverage of disability and death risks, the guarantee of a minimum defined benefit and annuity. These actuarial commitments are treated as defined benefit components of the plan and are accounted for by applying the projected unit credit method. Contributions paid for actuarial commitments that have defined contribution characteristics are recognized in profit or loss and are intended to constitute a reserve for programmed retirement. The contributions for the portion of the plan with defined contribution characteristics were R$ 604 (R$ 490 in the Parent Company) in 2012.

 

The defined benefit portion of the contributions has been suspended from July 1st, 2012 to June30, 2013, as decided by the Deliberative Council of Petros, based on advice from by the actuarial consultants from Fundação Petros. Therefore, the entire contributions are being appropriated in the individual accounts of plan participants.

 

For 2013 the employers' expected contributions to the defined-benefit portion of the plan are R$ 737 (R$ 642 in the Parent Company)

 

20.2   Pension plans abroad –Defined benefit

 

The Company also sponsors pension plans of certain of its international subsidiaries, with defined contribution characteristics, including those in Argentina, Japan and other countries. Most of these plans are funded and their assets are held in trusts, foundations or similar entities governed by local regulations. The Company paid R$ 16 in 2012 as contributions to these plans.

 

20.3   Pension plans assets

 

Pension plans assets follow a long term investment strategy to meet the assessed risk profile of each different class of asset and provide for diversification to lower portfolio risk. The portfolio must comply with the Brazilian National Monetary Council regulations.  Portfolio targets for the period between 2013 and 2017 are 40% to 60% in fixed-income securities, 30% to 45% in variable-income securities, 3% to 8% in real estate, up to 15% in loans to participants, 4% to 12% in structured finance projects and up to 3% in investments abroad

At December 31, 2012, the investments include Petrobras’ common and preferred shares in the amount of R$ 725 and R$ 484, respectively, and real estate properties rented by the Company in the amount of R$ 355.

 

Loans to participants are measured at amortized cost, which is considered to be an appropriate estimate of fair value.

 

The real rate of return on investment expected, based on market expectations, is 5.56% p.a. for variable-income securities and structured investments, 3.75% p.a. for fixed-income securities and 4.02% p.a. for real estate properties and 6.0% p.a. for loans granted to participants, resulting in an average return of 4.6% p.a.

 

20.4Medical Benefits – Health Care Plan - Assistência Multidisciplinar de Saúde (“AMS”)

 

Petrobras and its subsidiaries operate a medical benefit plan for employees in Brazil (active and inactive) and their dependents: the AMS health care plan. The plan is managed by the Company and the employees make fixed monthly contributions to cover high-risk procedures and variable contributions for a portion of the cost of other procedures, as established in the contribution table of the plan based on certain parameters, such as salary levels. The plan includes assistance towards the purchase of certain medicines in certain registered drugstores throughout Brazil.

 

There are no assets held as collaterals for the plan. Benefits are paid and recognized by the Company as incurred by the participants.

 

20.5Net actuarial liabilities and expenses calculated by independent actuaries, and fair value of plans assets

 

Information regarding defined benefit plans, in Brazil and abroad, has been consolidated for presentation purposes as the actuarial assumptions are similar and total assets and liabilities regarding pension plans abroad are not significant. All pension plans have deficit (excess of benefit liabilities over plan assets).

Capital increase with reserves in 2013

 

A proposal will be made to the Extraordinary General Meeting, to be held jointly with the Annual General Meeting in 2013 to increase capital through capitalization of a portion of the profit reserve for tax incentives established in 2012 of R$ 19. Share capital will increase from R$ 205,392 to R$ 205,411.

 

22.2 Additional paid-in capital

 

a)      Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares

 

These include any transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares, net of taxes.

 

b)      Change in interest in subsidiaries

 

These include any excess of amounts paid/received over the carrying value of the interest acquired/disposed. Changes in ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in loss of control of the subsidiary are equity transactions.

 

22.3 Profit reserves

 

 

a)      Legal reserve

 

The legal reserve represents 5% of the net income for the year, calculated pursuant to article 193 of the Brazilian Corporation Law.

 

 

b)      Statutory reserve

 

The statutory reserve is appropriated by applying a minimum of 0.5% of the year-end share capital and is retained to fund technology research and development programs. The balance of this reserve may not exceed 5% of the share capital, pursuant to article 55 of the Company’s bylaws.

 

c)       Tax incentives reserve

 

Government grants are recognized in profit or loss and are appropriated from retained earnings to the tax incentive reserve in the shareholders’ equity pursuant to article 195-A of Brazilian Corporation Law. This reserve may only be used to offset losses or increasing share capital.

 

In 2012, government grants of R$ 19 related to reinvestments, using income taxes benefits, for the development of the Northeast of Brazil (Superintendências de Desenvolvimento do Nordeste – SUDENE) and the Amazon region (SUDAM) were appropriated from profit or loss.

d) Profit retention reserve

 

Profit retention reserve shields funds intended for capital expenditures, primarily in oil and gas exploration and development activities, included in the capital budget of the Company, pursuant to article 196 of the Brazilian Corporation Law.

 

A retention of R$ 9,939, of which R$ 9,928 from 2012 profit and R$ 11 appropriated from retained earnings, was allocated to the annual investment program in the 2013 capital budget, which will be proposed and voted at the 2013 Annual General Meeting

 

22.4   Accumulated other comprehensive income

 

 

a)      Cumulative translation adjustment

 

This account comprises all exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of non-Brazilian Real subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates (functional currency different than the Parent Company)

 

b)   Other comprehensive income

 

This account comprises gains or losses arising from measurement at fair value of available-for-sale financial assets, cash flow hedges and deemed cost of petrochemical associates.

 

22.5   Dividends

 

 

Shareholders are entitled to receive minimum mandatory dividends (and/or interest on capital) of 25% of the adjusted net income for the year proportional to the number of common and preferred shares, pursuant to Brazilian Corporation Law.

 

Preferred shares have priority in case of capital returns and dividend distribution, which is based on the higher of 3% of the preferred shares’ net book value, or 5% of the preferred share capital.

 

Dividends for 2012 of R$ 8,876 are to be voted at the 2013 Annual General Meeting and are consistent with the rights granted to preferred shares in the bylaws of the Company and to the minimum mandatory dividend for common shares. Dividends proposed for 2012 represent 44.73% of the adjusted net income (adjusted in accordance with Brazilian Corporation Law), as 3% of the book value of shareholders’ equity regarding preferred shares stake was higher than the minimum mandatory dividend of 25% of the adjusted net income for the year.

 

An equal amount of dividends for common and preferred shares was proposed and approved in 2011 and represented 38.25% of the adjusted net income, as 3% of the book value of shareholders’ equity regarding preferred shares stake was higher than the minimum mandatory dividend.

Interim distributions of interest on capital in 2012 will be deducted from the distribution to be made at the close of fiscal year 2012 and indexed based on the SELIC rate from the date of payment to December 31, 2012. The remaining amount of interest on capital will be indexed based on the SELIC rate from December 31, 2012 to the date of payment, which will be voted at the 2013 Annual General Meeting

 

Interest on capital is subject to a withholding income tax rate of 15%, except for shareholders that are declared immune or exempt, pursuant to Law 9,249/95. Interest on capital is a form of dividend distribution, which is deductible for tax purposes in Brazil and is included in the dividend distribution for the year, as established in the Company’s bylaws. The tax credit from the deduction of interest on capital is recognized in profit or loss. An amount of R$ 3,018 was recognized in 2012 (R$ 3,548 in 2011) relating to tax benefits from the deduction of interest on capital. For accounting purposes, shareholders’ equity is reduced in a manner similar to a dividend, pursuant to CVM Deliberation 207/96.

27               Provisions for legal proceedings, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

 

The Company is a defendant in numerous legal proceedings involving tax, civil, labor, corporate and environmental issues. Based on legal advice and management’s best estimates, the Company reviews whether it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to set the obligations.

 

27.1   Provisions for legal proceedings

 

Provisions are recognized when there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

 

Significant proceedings, for which the Company has recognized a provision, mainly include: (i) withholding of income taxes for securities issued outside Brazil; (ii) losses and damages resulting from the cancellation of an assignment of excise tax (IPI) credits to a third party; and (iii) fishermen seeking indemnification from the Company for a January 2000 oil spill in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

 

In addition, the Federal Public Attorney’s Office and the Public Attorney’s Office of the State of Paraná filed lawsuits against Petrobras demanding compensation for moral damages, financial damages and environmental recovery due to oil spillages: (i) in Terminal São Francisco do Sul – Refinaria Presidente Vargas, on July 16, 2000, for which a provision was recognized in 2011 and its updated amount at December 2012 is R$ 70; and (ii) in the Araucária – Paranaguá pipeline (OLAPA), at the headwaters of Rio do Meio, in the town of Morretes – State of Paraná, on February 16, 2001. This legal proceeding resulted in a settlement agreement signed on April 26, 2012, for which a provision was recognized in March, 2012 in the amount of R$ 106, R$ 94 of which were paid in May, 2012 and R$ 12 are still recognized as a provision, in order to support the expenses to recover the area.

c)    Other Proceedings

 

Plaintiff: Porto Seguro Imóveis Ltda.

 

On August 28, 2012, the Superior Court (STJ), unanimously upheld the special appeal filed by Petrobras, dismissing the plaintiff's claims. Porto Seguro Imóveis Ltda., a former minority shareholder of Petroquisa, filed a lawsuit related to alleged losses suffered as a result of the disposal of Petroquisa's interest in various petrochemical companies included in the National Privatization Program. Based on the aforementioned decision, the possibility of an outflow of resources related to this contingent liability, in the amount of R$ 8,165 was reassessed as remote.  

 

27.4   Joint Ventures - Frade field

 

In November 2011, there was an oil spillage in the Frade field operated by Chevron Brasil, located in the Campos basin. Chevron Brasil, Chevron Latin America Marketing LLC and Transocean Brasil Ltda are being sued for R$ 20 billion in environmental damages by the federal public attorney’s office. Transocean Brasil Ltda. operated the rig at Frade at the time of this spillage.

 

In April 2012, a new lawsuit was filed by the Federal Public Attorney’s Office against Chevron and Transocean, due to new leaks on the seabed of the Frade field. In this suit the Federal Public Attorney’s Office pleads to a further R$ 20 billion as compensation for damages.

 

The assessment by the Company’s lawyers is that the amounts claimed are not reasonable and are disproportionately high in relation to the extent of the damages caused. In the second lawsuit, as the oil was not identified on the surface, the existence of any actual damage to the community is inconceivable.


Although the Company is not being sued, due to its 30% ownership interest in the Frade consortium, Petrobras may be contractually obliged to pay 30% of the total contingencies related to the incidents that occurred in the Frade field. In the event Chevron is held legally responsible, Petrobras may be contractually subject to the payment of up to 30% of the costs of the damages.

27.5   Contingent assets

 

27.5.1    Recovery of maintenance/replacement costs – Barracuda & Caratinga

 

In 2006, Petrobras, as representative of Barracuda & Caratinga Leasing Company B.V. (BCLC),  pursuant to the provisions of EPC Contract, submitted a matter for arbitration in New York against Kellog, Brown & Root, Inc – KBR, demanding payment of indemnification in the amount of approximately R$ 339 plus interest for the costs of monitoring and replacing defective stud bolts and anchor bolts incurred on subsea oilfield flowlines in the Barracuda and Caratinga field, under the contractual guarantee period as well as costs and expenses of the arbitration.

 

On September 21, 2011, the arbitration court awarded BCLC, as pleaded in the arbitration, the full amount of R$ 339 and condemned KBR to pay almost the entirety costs incurred by Petrobras in the arbitration, including internal costs, legal fees and other arbitration costs. After the decision, the Company recognized the amount of R$ 339 as a non-current asset.

 

In December 2012, Halliburton, as KBR guarantor, negotiated with BCLC to pay R$ 446, in order to settle the arbitration. This amount was paid on January 11, 2013.

 

27.5.2    Recovery of PIS and COFINS

 

Petrobras and its subsidiaries filed a civil suit against the Federal Government claiming to recover, through offsetting, amounts paid as taxes on financial revenue and exchange gains (PIS) in the period between February 1999 and November 2002 and COFINS between February 1999 and January 2004 claiming that paragraph 1 of article 3 of Law 9,718/98 is unconstitutional.

 

On November 9, 2005, the Federal Supreme Court declared such paragraph as unconstitutional.

 

On November 18, 2010, the Superior Court of Justice upheld the claim filed by Petrobras in 2006 to recover the COFINS for the period from January 2003 to January 2004. Petrobras then recognized the amount of R$ 497 (R$ 349 in the Parent Company) as recoverable taxes in its non-current assets.

 

At December 31, 2012, the Company had R$ 2,216 (R$ 2,135 in the Parent Company) related to this lawsuit that are not yet recognized in the financial statements due to the lack of final favorable decision.

 

27.5.3 Legal proceeding in the United States - P-19 and P-31

 

In 2002, Braspetro Oil Service Company (Brasoil) and Petrobras obtained a favorable decision in related lawsuits filed before U.S. courts by the insurance companies United States Fidelity & Guaranty Company and American Home Assurance Company in which they were seeking to obtain (since 1997 and regarding Brasoil) a judicial order exempting them from their payment obligations under the performance bond related to platforms P- 19 and P-31, and seeking reimbursement from Petrobras for any amounts for which they could ultimately be held liable in the context of the execution proceedings of such performance bond.

 

 On July 21, 2006, the U.S. courts issued an executive decision, conditioning the payment of the amounts owed to Brasoil to a definitive dismissal of the legal proceedings involving identical claims that are currently in course before Brazilian courts.

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

  (In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

Brasoil, Petrobras and the insurance companies already pleaded the dismissal of the Brazilian legal proceedings but their definitive dismissal is awaiting the hearing of an appeal filed by the platforms’ shipbuilding company before the Superior Court for Non-Constitutional Matters (STJ).

 

In 2012 the Company intensified actions taken, in an attempt to settle this lawsuit. The amount of damages pleaded is of approximately US$ 245 million.

 

28               Natural Gas Purchase Commitments

 

Petrobras has entered into an agreement with Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales Bolivianos (YPFB) to purchase 201.9 billion m3 of natural gas during the term of the agreement and to purchase minimum annual volume commitment at a price calculated based on a formula comprising the price of fuel oil. The agreement is valid until 2019, renewable until the total volume commitment has been consumed.

 

At December 31, 2012, the minimum purchase commitment from 2013 to 2019 is approximately 61.5 billion m3 of natural gas, equivalent to 24.06 million m3 per day, which corresponds to an estimated amount of US$ 17.90 billion.

 

29               Guarantees for concession agreements for petroleum exploration

 

The Company has guarantees for the Minimum Exploration Programs established in the concession agreements for exploration of areas by the Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis (“ANP”) in the total amount of R$ 6,404, of which R$ 5,626 are still in force, net of commitments that have been undertaken. The guarantees comprise crude oil from previously identified producing fields, pledged as security, with a value of R$ 3,194 and bank guarantees in the amount of R$2,432.

 

30               Risk management and derivative instruments

 

The Company is exposed to a variety of risks arising from its operations: market risk (including price risk related to crude oil and oil products, foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

 

30.1 Risk management

 

The objective of the overall risk management policy of the Company is to achieve an appropriate balance between growth, increased return on investments and risk exposure level, which can arise from its normal activities or from the context within which the Company operates, so that, through effective allocation of its physical, financial and human resources it may achieve its strategic goals.

 

Risk management is carried out by a Financial Integration Committee set up by the Executive Board to evaluate and establish guidelines for measuring, monitoring, and managing the risks periodically and to support the Board decisions. This Committee is always composed of the executive managers of the finance department. Executive managers of different business areas are convened to discuss specific matters.

30.2   Market risk

 

30.2.1  Risk management of price risk (related to crude oil and oil products)

 

Petrobras does not 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 transactions carried out abroad, which are usually short-term transactions similar to commercial transactions.

 

The main risk management techniques used by the Company to manage price risk of crude oil and oil products, in the transactions carried out abroad, are: operating cash flow at risk (CFAR), Value at Risk (VAR) and Stop Loss.

c)            Embedded derivatives - Sale of ethanol

 

The Company entered into an ethanol sales agreement on a price formula set when the contract was signed. The selling price of each ethanol cargo is based on the prices of two distinct references: ethanol and naphtha.

 

Since the market price of naphtha is not directly proportional to the cost or the market value of ethanol, a portion of the sales agreement, related to the derivative instrument, was measured at fair value (Level 3) through profit or loss (as finance income), separately from the rest of the agreement. The Company has measured the fair value of this agreement based on the difference between the spreads for naphtha and ethanol.

 

The notional value, fair value and the sensitivity analysis of the swap are presented below:

30.2.2    Foreign Exchange risk management

 

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk from recognized assets and liabilities, arising from the volatility of currency markets.

 

Petrobras seeks to identify and manage foreign exchange risk in an integrated manner, by recognizing and creating “natural hedges”, benefiting from the correlation between income and expenses. To mitigate short-term exchange risk exposure arising from transactions involving income and expenses in different currencies, the Company can use a natural hedge by choosing in which currency to hold cash, such as Brazilian Real, US dollar or another currency.

 

Foreign exchange risk is managed based on the net exposure and reviewed periodically to support the Executive Board. The Company can use derivative instruments to hedge certain liabilities, minimizing foreign exchange exposure.  

 

a)   Main transactions and future commitments hedged by foreign exchange derivatives

 

Swap Contracts

 

Yen vs. Dollar

 

The Company entered into a cross currency swap to fix in U.S. dollars the payments related to bonds denominated in Japanese yen. The Company does not intend to settle these contracts before the maturity. The relationship between the derivative and the loan qualify as cash flow hedge and hedge accounting is applied.

 

The effective portion of changes in fair value, assessed on a quarterly basis, are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, in the shareholders’ equity and reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss.

c) Sensitivity analysis for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments

 

The Company has assets and liabilities subject to foreign exchange risk. The main exposure involves the Brazilian Real, relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign exchange risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the Brazilian Real. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, denominated in a currency other than the Brazilian Real are not included in the sensitivity analysis set out below when transacted in a currency equivalent to their respective functional currencies.

 

The probable scenario, computed based on external data, as well as the stressed scenarios (a 25% and a 50% change in the foreign exchange rates) are set out below:

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

  (In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

Foreign exchange exposure is not considered significant, as the impact of foreign exchange depreciation / appreciation does not jeopardize the liquidity of the Company in the short term due to the balance between liabilities, assets, revenues and future commitments in foreign currency, since most of its debt mature in the long term.

 

30.2.3 Interest rate risk management

 

The Company is mainly exposed to interest rate risk related to changes in the LIBOR rate, arising from debt issued in foreign currency and to changes in the Brazilian long-term interest rate (TJLP), arising from debt issued in Brazilian Real. An increase in interest rates causes a negative impact in the Company's finance expense and its financial position.

 

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

 

a) Main transactions and future commitments hedged by interest rate derivatives

 

Swap contracts

 

Floating-to-fixed swap ( Libor USD) vs. Fixed rate (USD)

 

The Company entered into an interest rate swap, in order to exchange a floating interest rate for a fixed rate, aiming at eliminating the mismatch between the cash flows of assets and liabilities from investment projects. The Company does not intend to settle the operation before the maturity date, and therefore, adopted hedge accounting for the relationship between the finance debt and the derivative.

 

Other positions held are set out in the table below.

30.3    Credit risk

 

Petrobras is exposed to the credit risk arising from commercial transactions and from cash management, related to financial institutions and to credit exposure to customers. Credit risk is the risk that a customer or financial institution will fail to pay amounts due, relating to outstanding receivables or to financial investments, guarantees or deposits with financial institutions.

 

Credit risk management in Petrobras is a portion of its financial risk management, which is performed by the Company’s officers, under a policy of corporate risk management. The Credit Commissions are, each, composed of executive Managers for Risk Management, Finance and Commercial Department.

 

The purpose of the Credit Commissions is to analyze credit management issues, relating to granting and managing credit; to encourage integration between the units that compose the Credit Commissions; and to identify recommendations to be applied in the units involved or to be submitted to the appreciation of higher jurisdictions.

 

The credit risk management policy is part of the Company’s global risk management policy and aims at reconciling the need for minimizing exposure to credit risk and maximizing the result of commercial and financial transactions, through an efficient credit analysis process and efficient credit granting and management processes.

 

The Company manages credit risk by applying quantitative and qualitative parameters that are appropriate for each of the market segments in which it operates.

 

The Company’s commercial credit portfolio is much diversified and the credits granted are divided between clients from the domestic market and from foreign markets.

 

Credit granted to financial institutions is spread among the major international banks rated by the international rating agencies as Investment Grade and highly-rated Brazilian banks.

 

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented mainly by the balance of accounts receivable and derivative financial instruments outstanding.

 

30.4     Liquidity risk

 

The Company's liquidity risk is represented by the possibility of a shortage of funds, cash or another financial asset in order to settle its obligations on the established dates.

 

The liquidity risk management policy adopted by the Company provides that the maturity of its debt continues to be lengthen, exploring the funding opportunities available in the domestic market and being significantly active in the international capital markets by broadening the investor’s base in fixed income.

 

Petrobras finances its working capital through a centralized cash management for the group and by assuming short-term debt, which is usually related to commercial transactions, such as export credit notes and advances on foreign exchange contracts. Investments in non-current assets are financed through long-term debt, such as bonds issued in the international market, funding from credit bureaus, financing and pre payment of exports, development banks in Brazil and abroad, and lines of credit with national and international commercial banks.

31               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, trade accounts receivable, short term debt and trade accounts payable are the same as their carrying values. The fair values of other long-term assets and liabilities do not differ significantly from their carrying amounts.

 

At December 31, 2012, the estimated fair value for the Company’s long term debt was R$ 191,478 and was computed based on the prevailing market rates for operations that  have similar nature, maturity and risk to the contracts recognized and it may be compared to the carrying amount of R$ 180,818

 

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

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras

Notes to the financial statements (Consolidated and Parent Company)

  (In millions of reais, except when indicate otherwise)  

 

32               Insurance 

 

The Company’s insurance policies involve acquiring insurance to cover assets that might lead to material negative impacts in the shareholders’ equity (in the case of an eventual damage), as well as risks subject to legal or contractual mandatory insurance. The remaining risks are subject to self-insurance and Petrobras intentionally assumes the entire risk by abstaining from contracting insurance. The Company assumes a significant portion of its risk, by including franchises that may reach an amount equivalent to US$ 80 in its insurance policies.

 

The risk assumptions adopted are not part of the audit scope of the financial statements audit and therefore were not examined by independent auditors.

 

The main information concerning the insurance coverage outstanding at December 31, 2012 is set out below:

            Information on reserves (unaudited)

 

The regulatory framework for oil and gas exploration, development and production activities in Brazil was based on concession agreements until June 30, 2010, when the enactment of Law 12,276 introduced the Onerous Assignment Agreement (“Cessão Onerosa”), in specific pre-salt areas and Law 12,351, enacted in December 22, 2010, introduced the new regulatory framework that established a production-sharing model for pre-salt areas and strategic areas to be contracted by the Federal Government. Most of the contracts outside Brazil are based on concession agreements. Therefore, exploration and development expenses are capitalized and reported, instead of presenting the monetary value of the volume of reserves.

 

Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible - from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations.

 

Proved developed reserves are those proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well and through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate if the extraction is by means not involving a well.

 

Proved undeveloped reserves are those proved reserves that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion.

 

Reserve estimates include inherent uncertainties and therefore are subject to changes due to increased availability of geoscience (geological, geophysical, and geochemical), engineering, and economic data.

 

Proved oil and gas reserves estimated by the Company in accordance with the SEC criteria are set out below:
