REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors and Management of
Ultrapar Participações S.A.
São Paulo - SP
 
Introduction
 
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Ultrapar Participações S.A. (the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, included in the Interim Financial Information Form (ITR), for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, which comprises the balance sheet as of September 30, 2014 and the related statements of income and of comprehensive income for the three and nine-month periods then ended and of changes in equity and of cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.
 
The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Information and the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) and with international standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, as well as for the presentation of such information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
 
Scope of review
 
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards on auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
 
Conclusion on individual interim financial information
 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual interim financial information included in the ITR referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.
 
 
 

 
 
Conclusion on consolidated interim financial information
 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial information included in the ITR referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) and international standard IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.
 
Other matters
 
Statements of value added
 
We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added (DVA), for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by the standards issued by the CVM applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR) and considered as supplemental information for International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRS, which do not require the presentation of these statements. These statements were subject to the same review procedures described above, and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they were not prepared, in all material respects, consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
 
The accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information has been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.

Interim Financial Information
 
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

c.  
Financial Instruments
 
In accordance with IAS 32, IAS 39, and IFRS 7 (CPC 38, 39 and 40 (R1)), the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries are classified in accordance with the following categories:
 
Measured at fair value through profit or loss: financial assets and liabilities held for trading, that is, acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term, and derivatives. The balances are stated at fair value. The interest earned, the exchange variation, and changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.
   
Held to maturity: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments, and fixed maturities for which the entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss, and balances are stated at acquisition cost plus the interest earned, using the effective interest rate method.
   
Available for sale: non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale or that are not classified into other categories at initial recognition. The balances are stated at fair value, and the interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. Differences between fair value and acquisition cost plus the interest earned are recognized in cumulative other comprehensive income in the shareholders’ equity portion of the balance sheet. Accumulated gains and losses recognized in the shareholders’ equity are reclassified to profit or loss in case of prepayment.
   
Loans and receivables: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments or receipts, not quoted in an active market, except: (i) those which the entity intends to sell immediately or in the near term and which the entity classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) those classified as available for sale; or (iii) those for which the Company may not recover substantially all of its initial investment for reasons other than credit deterioration. The interest earned and the foreign currency exchange variation are recognized in profit or loss. The balances are stated at acquisition cost plus interest, using the effective interest rate method. Loans and receivables include cash and banks, trade receivables, dividends receivable, and other trade receivables.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, applying the concepts described below:

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

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

d.  
Trade Receivables
 
Trade receivables are recognized at the amount invoiced, adjusted to present value if applicable, and includes all direct taxes attributable to the Company and its subsidiaries. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on estimated losses and is set at an amount deemed by management to be sufficient to cover any probable loss on realization of trade receivables (see Notes 5 and 22 - Customer Credit Risk).

e.  
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of acquisition cost or net realizable value (see Note 6). The cost value of inventory is measured using the weighted average cost and includes the costs of acquisition and processing directly related to the units produced based on the normal capacity of production. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the average selling prices at the end of the reporting period, net of applicable direct selling expenses. Subsequent events related to the fluctuation of prices and costs are also considered, if relevant. If net realizable values are below inventory costs, a provision corresponding to this difference is recognized. Provisions are also made for obsolescence of products, materials, or supplies that (i) do not meet the Company and its subsidiaries’ specifications, (ii) have exceeded their expiration date, or (iii) are considered slow-moving inventory. This classification is made by management with the support of its industrial team.

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

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual and consolidated interim financial information (see Note 11).

An associate is an investment, in which an investor has significant influence, that is, has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the investee but without exercise control.

A joint venture is an investment in which the shareholders have the right to net assets on behalf of a joint control. Joint control is the agreement which establish that decisions about the relevant activities of the investee require the consent from the parties that share control.

Other investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for losses, unless the loss is considered temporary.
 
g.  
Property, Plant, and Equipment
 
Property, plant, and equipment is recognized at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on property, plant, and equipment under construction, as well as maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages and estimated costs to remove, to decommission, or to restore assets (see Note 18).

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

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

Leases

• 
Finance Leases

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

• 
Operating Leases

There are lease transactions where the risks and benefits associated with the ownership of the asset are not transferred and where there is no purchase option, or the purchase option at the end of the contract is equivalent to the market value of the leased asset. Payments made under an operating lease contract are recognized as cost or expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract (see Note 23.g).

 
i.  
Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets include assets acquired by the Company and its subsidiaries from third parties, according to the criteria below (see Note 13):

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

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

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

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

Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the activities necessary for contracting loans or for issuing bonds, as well as premiums and discounts upon issuance of debentures and other debt or equity instruments, are allocated to the instrument and amortized to profit or loss over its term, using the effective interest rate method (see Note 14.k).
 
l.  
Income and Social Contribution Taxes on Income
 
Current and deferred income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution on net income tax (“CSLL”) are calculated based on their current rates, considering the value of tax incentives. Taxes are recognized based on the rates of IRPJ and CSLL provided for by the laws enacted on the last day of the reporting period. The current rates in Brazil are 25% for income tax and 9% for social contribution on net income tax. For further details about recognition and realization of IRPJ and CSLL, see Note 9.

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

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

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

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

q.  
Foreign Currency Transactions
 
Foreign currency transactions carried out by the Company or its subsidiaries are remeasured into their functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of each transaction. Outstanding monetary assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The effect of the difference between those exchange rates is recognized in profit or loss until the conclusion of each transaction.
 
r.  
Basis for Translation of Interim Financial Information of Foreign Subsidiaries
 
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Brazilian Real), which have administrative autonomy, are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate of each period and shareholders’ equity is translated at the historic exchange rate of each transaction affecting shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the statement of shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments and will be recognized in profit or loss if these investments are disposed of. The recognized balance in cumulative other comprehensive income and presented in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments as of September 30, 2014 was a gain of R$ 19,725 (gain of R$ 38,076 as of December 31, 2013).

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

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

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

Currently Venezuela has three spot exchange rates:

a) CENCOEX - Centro Nacional de Comercio Exterior en Venezuela: Bolivar (“VEF”) is traded at a fixed exchange rate of 6.30 VEF/US$. The applicant makes the request for authorization of payment and receipt of priority transactions. There is no deadline for approval by CENCOEX;
b) SICAD-I - Sistema Cambiario Alternativo de Divisas I: Bolivar is traded at variable exchange rate of approximately 12.00 VEF/US$. There are a number of requirements for the approval of the transactions traded using this rate, which is the most likely exchange rate for the payment of dividends and repatriation of capital; and
c) SICAD-II - Sistema Cambiario Alternativo de Divisas II: Bolivar is traded at variable exchange rate of approximately 50.00 VEF/US$. Other transactions may be realized by SICAD-II.

For the consolidation of the Oxiteno Andina in the Company, the amounts in Bolivar have been translated to the U.S. dollar at the exchange rate of SICAD-I and subsequently translated into Brazilian Reais using the official exchange rate published by the Central Bank of Brazil. In management's judgment, the use of SICAD-I is the most suitable for conversion, since the exchange rate is the most likely rate for the payment of dividends and repatriation of capital.

Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have administrative autonomy, are considered an extension of the activities of their parent company and are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as financial income or loss. The gain recognized in income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 amounted to R$ 716 (R$ 3,574 gain for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013).

s.  
Use of Estimates, Assumptions and Judgments
 
The preparation of the interim financial information requires the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments for the accounting of certain assets, liabilities, and income. Therefore, the Company’s and subsidiaries’ management use the best information available at the time of preparation of the interim financial information, as well as the experience of past and current events, also considering assumptions regarding future events. The interim financial information therefore include estimates, assumptions, and judgments related mainly to determining the fair value of financial instruments (Notes 4, 14 and 22), the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts (Notes 5 and 22), the determination of provisions for losses of inventories (Note 6), the determination of deferred income taxes amounts (Note 9), the useful life of property, plant, and equipment (Note 12), the useful life of intangible assets, and the determination of the recoverable amount of goodwill (Note 13), provisions for assets retirement obligations (Note 18), tax, civil, and labor provisions (Note 23 items a,b,c,d), estimates for the preparation of actuarial reports (Note 24.b) and the determination of fair value of subscription warrants – indemnification (Notes 3.a and 22). The actual result of the transactions and information may differ from their estimates.

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

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

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

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

u.  
Adjustment to Present Value
 
Some of the Company’s subsidiaries recognized a present value adjustment to Tax on Goods and Services (“ICMS”, the Brazilian VAT) credit balances related to property, plant, and equipment (CIAP). Because recovery of these credits occurs over a 48 month period, the present value adjustment reflects, in the interim financial information, the time value of the ICMS credits to be recovered. The balance of these adjustment to present value totaled R$ 340 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 354 as of December 31, 2013).

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

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

3.
Principles of Consolidation and Investments in Subsidiaries

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

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

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

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

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

In addition, the Company issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, would lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken down into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. On June 30, 2014, in a preliminary assessment of the working capital and indebtedness adjustments the Company identified that the subscription warrants – working capital shall not be exercised by the former shareholders of Extrafarma. Accordingly, the Company reversed full provision for the issuance of 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital, which at the acquisition date amounted to R$ 42,138. The shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification may be exercised as early as 2020 and are adjusted according to the changes in the amounts of provision for tax, civil, and labor risks and contingent liabilities related to the period previous to January 31, 2014. The subscription warrants – indemnification are valued based on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3), and on the reporting date were represented by 2,309,786 shares and totaled R$ 107,181.

The temporary purchase price in the amount of R$ 749,289, subject to the customary final adjustments of working capital, will be allocated among the identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed, measured at fair value. The Company is measuring the open balance, fair value of assets and liabilities, and, consequently, the goodwill. The purchase price allocation is being determined and its conclusion is estimated for the fourth quarter of 2014. During the process of identification of assets and liabilities, intangible assets, which are not recognized in the acquired entity’s books, will also be taken into account. The temporary goodwill is R$ 795,729.

Purchase and sale transactions relate substantially to the purchase of raw materials, feedstock, transportation, and storage services based on similar market prices and terms with customers and suppliers with comparable operational performance. The above operations related to ConectCar refer to the adhesion to Ipiranga’s marketing plan and services provided. Borrowing agreements are for an indeterminate period and do not contain interest clauses. In the opinion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ management, transactions with related parties are not subject to credit risk, which is why no allowance for doubtful accounts or collateral is provided. Collateral provided by the Company in loans of subsidiaries and affiliates are mentioned in Note 14.l). Intercompany loans are contracted in light of temporary cash surpluses or deficits of the Company, its subsidiaries, and its associates.

b.

In addition, the chief executive officer is entitled to additional long term variable compensation relating to the Company’s shares’ performance between 2013 and 2018, reflecting the target of more than doubling the share value of the Company in 5 years.

c.
Deferred Stock Plan

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

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

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

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

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

(2) On December 26, 2013, the petition requesting the extension of the tax incentive for another 10 years was granted by SUDENE, due to the modernization in the Aratu terminal. Due to the expiration of the period for approval by the Federal Revenue Service on the petition, Tequimar recognized the tax benefit in income for the second quarter of 2014, retroactive to January 2013 in the amount of R$ 4,356.

On May 14, 2014, Law No. 12973, a conversion of Provisional Measure No. 627 (MP 627/13), was published which, among other matters: (i) revoked the Transition Tax Regime (RTT) and regulates the incidence of taxes on the adjustments arising from the convergence of accounting practices adopted in Brazil and IFRS and (ii) provided for the taxation of residents in Brazil related to profits of overseas subsidiaries and associates.

The Company and its subsidiaries decided not to anticipate the effects of the application of this law for the calendar year 2014.

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

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

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

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

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

iv) Commercial property rights include those described below:

On July 11, 2002, subsidiary Tequimar executed an agreement with CODEBA – Companhia das Docas do Estado da Bahia, which allows it to explore the area in which the Aratu Terminal is located for 20 years, renewable for a similar period. The price paid by Tequimar was R$ 12,000, which is being amortized over the period from August 2002 to July 2042.
   
In addition, subsidiary Tequimar has a lease contract for an area adjacent to the Port of Santos for 20 years from December 2002, renewable for a similar period, which allows the construction, operation, and use of a terminal for liquid bulk unloading, tank storage, handling, and distribution. The price paid by Tequimar was R$ 4,334, which is being amortized over the period from August 2005 to December 2022.
   
Subsidiary Extrafarma pays key money to obtain certain commercial establishments to open drugstores which is stated at the cost of acquisition, amortized using the straight line method, considering the lease contract terms. In the case of the closedown of stores, the residual amount is recorded in income.
 
v) Distribution rights refer mainly to bonus disbursements as provided in Ipiranga’s agreements with resellers and large customers. Bonus disbursements are recognized when paid and recognized as an expense in the income statement over the term of the agreement (typically 5 years), which is reviewed as per the changes occurred in the agreements.
 
vi) Others are represented substantially by the acquisition cost of the ‘am/pm’ brand in Brazil.

Foreign Loans

1) The subsidiary IPP has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 80 million, due in November 2015 and bearing interest of LIBOR + 0.8% p.a., paid quarterly. IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 104.1% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.

2) The subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp. (“Oxiteno Overseas”) has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 60 million with interest of LIBOR + 1.0% p.a., paid semiannually. The Company, through its subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz, contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rates in dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 86.9% of CDI with maturity in June 2014 and 94.0% of CDI for the remaining term (see Note 22). The foreign loan is guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. In January 2014, the subsidiary renegotiated the loan changing the maturity from June 2014 to January 2017.

3) In September 2014, the subsidiary IPP contracted a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 150 million, due in September 2017 and bearing interest of LIBOR + 0.53% p.a., paid quarterly. IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 103.7% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.

As a result of these foreign loans, some obligations mentioned in Note 14.b) must also be maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries. Additionally, during these contracts, the Company shall maintain the following financial ratios, calculated based on its audited consolidated financial statements:

f.  
Banco do Brasil

The subsidiary IPP has fixed and floating interest rate loans with Banco do Brasil to finance the marketing, processing, or manufacturing of agricultural goods (ethanol). IPP contracted interest hedging instruments, thus converting the fixed rate for this loan into 99.5% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designates this hedging instrument as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instrument are both stated at fair value from inception. Changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.

In January 2014, the subsidiary IPP renegotiated loans, that would mature in 2014, in the notional amount of R$ 909.5 million, changing the maturities from April and May 2014 to January 2017, with floating interest rate of 105.5% of CDI.

Other Comprehensive Income

Valuation Adjustments

The differences between the fair value and amortized cost of financial investments classified as available for sale are recognized directly in equity as valuation adjustments. The gains and losses recognized in the shareholders’ equity are reclassified to profit or loss in case the financial instruments are prepaid.

Actuarial gains and losses relating to post-employment benefits, calculated based on a valuation conducted by an independent actuary, are recognized in shareholders’ equity under the title “valuation adjustments”. Actuarial gains and losses recorded in equity are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.

Cumulative Translation Adjustments

The change in exchange rates on assets, liabilities, and income of foreign subsidiaries that have (i) functional currency other than the presentation currency of the Company and (ii) an independent administration, is directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity. This accumulated effect is reflected in profit or loss as a gain or loss only in case of disposal or write-off of the investment.

Risks and Financial Instruments (Consolidated)

Risk Management and Financial Instruments - Governance

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

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

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

Currency Risk

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

The Company and its subsidiaries use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Brazilian Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts, and disbursements in foreign currency and net investments in foreign operations. Hedge is used in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on the Company´s income  and cash flows in Brazilian Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts, and disbursements in foreign currencies to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are stated below, translated into Brazilian Reais as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Interest Rate Risk

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

The Company does not actively manage risks associated with changes in the level of interest rates and attempts to maintain its financial interest assets and liabilities at floating rates. As of September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate derivative financial instruments linked to domestic loans, in which the Company swapped the fixed interest rate of certain debts to floating interest rates (CDI).

Credit Risks

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

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

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

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

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

Liquidity Risk
 
The Company and its subsidiaries’ main sources of liquidity derive from (i) cash, cash equivalents, and financial investments, (ii) cash generated from operations and (iii) financing. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that these sources are sufficient to satisfy their current funding requirements, which include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, amortization of debt, and payment of dividends.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries periodically examine opportunities for acquisitions and investments. They consider different types of investments, either directly, through joint ventures, or through associated companies, and finance such investments using cash generated from operations, debt financing, through capital increases, or through a combination of these methods.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries believe to have enough working capital to satisfy their current needs. The gross indebtedness due over the next twelve months totals R$ 2,995.7 million, including estimated interests on loans. Furthermore, the investment plan for 2014 totals R$ 1,484 million and until the third quarter of 2014 the amount of R$ 747 million had been realized. On September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had R$ 3,696.9 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term financial investments (for quantitative information, see Notes 4 and 14).
 
The table below presents a summary of financial liabilities as of September 30, 2014 to be settled by the Company and its subsidiaries, listed by maturity. The amounts disclosed in this table are the contractual undiscounted cash outflows, and, therefore, these amounts ​​may be different from the amounts disclosed on the balance sheet as of September 30, 2014.

(1) To calculate the estimated interest on loans some macroeconomic assumptions were used, including averaging for the period the following: (i) CDI of 12.1 % p.a., (ii) exchange rate of the Real against the U.S. dollar of R$ 2.51 in 2014, R$ 2.67 in 2015, R$ 2.92 in 2016, R$ 3.19 in 2017, R$ 3.45 in 2018, and R$ 3.72 in 2019 (iii) TJLP of 5.0% p.a. and (iv) IGP-M of 7.0% in 2014, 6.7% in 2015, 7.0% in 2016, 6.3% in 2017, and 6.3% in 2018 (source: BM&FBOVESPA, Bulletin Focus and financial institutions).
 
(2) Includes estimated interest payments on short-term and long-term loans until the payment date.
 
(3) The currency and interest rate hedging instruments were estimated based on projected U.S dollar futures contracts and the futures curve of DI x Pre contract quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of September 30, 2014 and on the futures curve of LIBOR (ICE - IntercontinentalExchange) on September 30, 2014. In the table above, only the hedging instruments with negative results at the time of settlement were considered.

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

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

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

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

Hedging instruments existing as of September 30, 2014 are described below, according to their category, risk, and hedging strategy:

a - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of liabilities in foreign currency - The purpose of these contracts is (i) to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates of debts or firm commitments in U.S. dollars by converting them into debts or firm commitments in Brazilian Reais linked to CDI, and (ii) change a financial investment linked to the CDI and given as a guarantee to a loan in the U.S. dollar into a financial investment linked to the U.S. dollar. As of September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 351.9 million in notional amount with a liability position, on average of 103.2% of CDI, of which US$ 61.9 million, on average, had an asset position at US$ + 3.9 % p.a. and US$ 290.0 million had an asset position at US$ + LIBOR + 0.8% p.a.

b.1 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of operations - The purpose of these contracts is to make the exchange rate of the revenues of subsidiaries Oleoquímica, Oxiteno S.A. and Oxiteno Nordeste equal to the exchange rate of the cost of their main raw materials during their operating cycles. As of September 30, 2014, these swap contracts totaled US$ 12.1 million and, on average, had an asset position at 85.5 % of CDI and a liability position at US$ + 0.0% p.a.

b.2 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of net investments in foreign operations - The purpose of these contracts is to minimize the effect of exchange variation of investments in foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the functional currency of the Company, turning them into investments in Brazilian Reais. On September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 32.0 million in notional amount with an asset position at 93.5 % of CDI and a liability position of US$ + 0.0% p.a.

c - Hedging against the interest rate fixed in local financing - The purpose of these contracts is to convert the interest rate on financing contracted in Brazilian Reais from fixed into floating. On September 30, 2014 these swap contracts totaled R$ 327.5 million of notional amount corresponding to principal amount of related debt, and on average had an asset position at 11.8% p.a. and a liability position at 98.6% of CDI.
 
Hedge Accounting

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

On September 30, 2014, the notional amount of interest rate hedging instruments totaled R$ 327.5 million, referring to the principal of the pre-fixed loans in Brazilian Reais. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, a gain of R$ 3.5 million related to the result of hedging instruments, an income of R$ 7.8 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt, and an expense of R$ 45.8 million related to the accrued interest rate of the debt were recognized in the income statement, transforming the average effective cost of the operations into 98.6% of CDI.

On September 30, 2014, the notional amount of foreign exchange hedging instruments designated as fair value hedge totaled US$ 230.0 million. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, an income of R$ 23.2 million related to the result of hedging instruments, a gain of R$ 0.1 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt, and a loss of R$ 41.8 million related to the financial expense of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operation into 103.8% of CDI (see Note 14.c.1 and c.3).

On September 30, 2014, the notional amount of exchange rate hedging instruments designated as hedges of net investment in a foreign operation totaled US$ 32 million relating to the portion of investments in entities which have functional currency different from the Real. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, a loss of R$ 2.2 million was recorded. The exchange rate on investment and the hedging instrument effects were offset in equity.

The fair value of financial instruments, including currency and interest hedging instruments, was determined as follows:
 
The fair value of cash and bank deposit balances are identical to their carrying values.
 
     
Financial investments in investment funds are valued at the value of the fund unit as of the date of the reporting period, which corresponds to their fair value.
   
Financial investments in CDBs (Bank Certificates of Deposit) and similar investments offer daily liquidity through repurchase at the “yield curve” and, therefore, the Company believes their fair value corresponds to their carrying value.
   
The fair value calculation of LPG Inc.’s notes in the foreign market (see Note 14.b) is based on the quoted prices in an active market.
   
The subscription warrants – indemnification are based on the share price of Ultrapar (UGPA3) at the reporting date.
 
 
The fair value of other financial investments and financing was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for mark-to-market reporting, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries can use quotes provided by the transaction counterparties.

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

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

Fair Value Hierarchy of Financial Instruments on the Balance Sheet

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

(a)  
Level 1 - prices negotiated (without adjustment) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
 
(b)  
Level 2 - inputs other than prices negotiated in active markets included in Level 1 and observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
   
 (c)  
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability which are not based on observable market variables (unobservable inputs).
 
The table below shows a summary of the financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ balance sheet as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

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

Sensitivity Analysis

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

For the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange hedging instruments, management adopted as a likely scenario the Real/U.S. dollar exchange rates at maturity of each swap, projected by U.S dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of September 30, 2014. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 3.19 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional appreciation or depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the likely scenario, according to the risk to which the hedged item is exposed.

Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of September 30, 2014, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Brazilian Reais and the original balance in Brazilian Reais as of September 30, 2014 were calculated in each of the three scenarios. The table below shows the change in the values of the main derivative instruments and their hedged items, considering the changes in the exchange rate in the different scenarios:

For sensitivity analysis of hedging instruments for interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company used the futures curve of the DI x Pre contract on BM&FBOVESPA as of September 30, 2014 for each of the swap and debt (hedged item) maturities, to determine the likely scenarios. Scenarios II and III were estimated based on a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, of the likely scenario pre-fixed interest rate.

Based on the three scenarios of interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company estimated the values of its debt and hedging instruments according to the risk which is being hedged (variations in the pre-fixed interest rates in Brazilian Reais), by projecting them to future value at the contracted rates and bringing them to present value at the interest rates of the estimated scenarios. The results are shown in the table below:

Provisions, Contingencies and Commitments (Consolidated)

a. 
Provisions for tax, civil, and labor risks

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties in tax, civil, and labor disputes and are discussing these issues both at the administrative and judiciary levels, which, when applicable, are backed by escrow deposits. Provisions for losses are estimated and updated by managements. Managements are supported by the opinion of the legal departments of the Company and its outside legal counsel.

Some of the tax provisions above involve escrow deposits in the amount of R$ 496,322 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 456,075 as of December 31, 2013).

b.
Tax Matters

Provisions

On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Cia. Ultragaz and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. (“Bahiana”) filed for and obtained a preliminary injunction to recognize and offset PIS and COFINS credits on LPG purchases, against other taxes levied by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court on May 16, 2008. Under the preliminary injunction, the subsidiaries made escrow deposits for these debits which amounted to R$ 381,256 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 345,513 as of December 31, 2013). On July 18, 2014, a second instance unfavorable decision was published in and the subsidiaries suspended the escrow deposits, returning to pay such taxes. To restore the right to make deposits, the subsidiaries presented a writ of prevention which has not yet been judged. Appeals were also presented to the respective higher courts (STJ and STF) whose trials are also pending.

The subsidiary IPP has a Declaratory Action discussing the constitutionality of Law No. 9316/1996, that denied the deduction of CSLL from the IRPJ tax basis. This claim was denied on 1st and 2nd instances, and the appeal presented to the Supreme Court awaits trial. The subsidiary has provision of R$ 20,468 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 19,806 as of December 31, 2013) for this discussion.

The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste, Cia. Ultragaz, Tequimar, Tropical, Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. (“EMCA”), IPP and Extrafarma filed for a preliminary injunction seeking the deduction of ICMS from their PIS and COFINS tax bases. Oxiteno Nordeste and IPP paid the amounts into escrow deposits, and recognized a corresponding provision in the amount of R$ 90,831 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 86,306 as of December 31, 2013).

The subsidiary IPP had a provision related to ICMS, mainly with respect to several transactions that resulted in tax assessments for which the proof of payment was not evident, in the amount of R$ 19,449 as of December 31, 2013. In the second quarter of 2014, the subsidiary provided rebuttal documents, which will be subject to judicial investigation, relating to this failure to pay the ICMS charge for the alleged omission of output fuel oil operations. Thus, the Company reassessed the probability of the losses as “possible”, and reversed the provision.


Contingent Liabilities

The main tax claims of subsidiary IPP and its subsidiaries that are classified as having a possible risk of loss, and that have not been recognized in the interim financial information due to this assessment, are related to ICMS, and mainly, to: (a) the required proportional reversal of ICMS credits recognized on the purchase of ethanol that was later resold at lower prices as a result of PROÁLCOOL, a Federal Government program to encourage alcohol production. The Company has determined the anticipation of financial subsidy by the distributors to the mill owners and their subsequent reimbursement by the DNC (current National Oil Agency) as R$ 115,970 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 113,555 as of December 31, 2013), (b) alleged undue ICMS credits for which the tax authorities understand that there was no proof of origin for R$ 41,105 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 29,565 as of December 31, 2013), (c) assessments for alleged non-payment of ICMS totaling R$ 46,110 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 25,576 as of December 31, 2013), (d) assessment issued in Ourinhos/SP in connection with the return of ethanol loans made with deferred tax, in the amount of R$ 44,527 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 40,848 as of December 31, 2013), (e) assessments in the State of Rio de Janeiro demanding the reversal of ICMS credits on interstate sales made under Article 33 of ICMS Convention 66/88, which allowed the use of the ICMS credit but was suspended by an injunction granted by STF (the Brazilian Federal Court of Justice), totaling R$ 17,659 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 17,222 as of December 31, 2013), (f) ICMS credits taken in relation to bills considered invalid, though the understanding of the STJ (the Brazilian High Court of Justice) is that it is possible to take credit, even if there is a defect in the document of the seller, as long as it is confirmed that the transaction occurred, for R$ 28,783 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 27,215 as of December 31, 2013); (g) assessments arising from surplus or shortage of inventory, generated by differences in temperature or handling of the product, without the corresponding issuance of invoices, as of R$ 59,195 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 47,106 as of December 31, 2013), (h) infraction relating to ICMS credits due to alleged non-compliance with legal formalities, for R$ 40,056 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 36,398 as of December 31, 2013) and; (i) assessments arising from ICMS credits related to inputs of ethanol from certain States that had granted tax benefits to producers of alcohol in alleged disagreement with the law, in the amount of R$ 36,057 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 30,726 as of December 31, 2013); (j) assessments that consider various possible breaches of auxiliary obligations, among them the alleged lack of issuance of invoices, the alleged failure of delivery, or delivery with errors of informative reports to the tax authorities, errors in the filling of DANFE - Auxiliary Document Electronic Invoice, among others, totaling R$ 8,485 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 11,806 as of December 31, 2013); and (k) infraction notice for non-payment of ICMS related to the acquisition of basic lubricating oil, whose remittance was deferred to the time of the subsequent industrialized output relating to interstate transactions (covered by the constitutional non-incidence - article 155, X, ‘b’ of the Federal Constitution), totaling R$ 11,347 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 10,657 as of December 31, 2013).

The subsidiary IPP has assessments invalidating the offset of IPI credits in connection with the purchase of raw materials used in the manufacturing of products which sales are not subject to IPI under the protection of tax immunity. The non-provisioned amount of this contingency classified as a possible risk of loss, as of September 30, 2014, is R$ 150,283 (R$ 117,697 as of December 31, 2013).

Contingent Assets

The Company and its subsidiaries have favorable judgments to pay contributions to PIS and COFINS without the changes introduced by Law 9718/1998 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these contributions on sources of income other than gross revenue. In 2005, the STF (the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court) decided the question in favor of the taxpayers. Although this has set a favorable precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await the formal decision in their own lawsuits. Certain lawsuits of the Company’s subsidiaries are currently pending trial and, in the event all such lawsuits are decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income and social contribution taxes may reach R$ 36,549, net of attorney’s fees.
 
c.
Civil Claims
 
Provisions

The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions for lawsuits and administrative proceedings, mainly derived from contracts entered into with customers and former services providers, as well as proceedings related to environmental issues in the amount of R$ 82,992 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 90,886 as of December 31, 2013).

Contingent Liabilities

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

Provisions

The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions of R$ 69,493 as of September 30, 2014 (R$ 60,174 as of December 31, 2013) for labor litigation filed by former employees and by employees of our service providers mainly contesting the non-payment of labor rights.

Contingent Liabilities

In 1990, the Petrochemical Industry Labor Union (Sindiquímica), of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, companies located in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex, are members, filed separate lawsuits against the subsidiaries demanding the compliance with the fourth section of the collective labor agreement, which provided for a salary adjustment in lieu of the salary policies practiced. In the same year, a collective labor dispute was also filed by the Union of Employers (SINPEQ) against Sindiquímica, requiring the recognition of the loss of effectiveness of such fourth section. Individual claims were rejected. The collective bargaining agreement is currently pending trial by STF. In the second half of 2010, some companies in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex signed an agreement with Sindiquímica and reported the fact in the collective bargaining agreement dispute. Based on the opinion of their legal advisors, who reviewed the latest STF decision in the collective bargaining agreement dispute as well as the status of the individual claims involving the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, the management of such subsidiaries believed that it was not necessary to recognize a provision as of September 30, 2014.

The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings of tax, civil, and labor nature, which are individually less relevant, and were estimated by their legal counsel as having possible and/or remote risks (proceedings whose chance of loss is 50% or less). A such, the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries are also litigating for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recognized in the interim financial information due to their contingent nature.
 

e. 
Contracts
 
Subsidiary Tequimar has agreements with CODEBA and Complexo Industrial Portuário Governador Eraldo Gueiros, in connection with its port facilities in Aratu and Suape, respectively. Such agreements establish a minimum cargo movement of products, as shown below:

Port

If the annual movement is less than the minimum contractual movement, the subsidiary is liable to pay the difference between the effective movement and the minimum contractual movement, based on the port tariff rates in effect on the date established for payment. As of September 30, 2014, these rates were R$ 5.79 per ton for Aratu and R$ 1.38 per ton for Suape. The subsidiary has met the minimum cargo movement required since the beginning of the contractual agreements.
 
Subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste has a supply agreement with Braskem S.A. which establishes a minimum quarterly consumption level of ethylene and conditions for the supply of ethylene until 2021. The minimum purchase commitment clause provides a minimum annual consumption of 205 thousand tons and a maximum of 220 thousand tons. The minimum purchase commitment and the actual demand accumulated as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, expressed in tons of ethylene, are shown below. Should the minimum purchase commitment not be met, the subsidiary would be liable for a fine of 40% of the current ethylene price for the quantity not purchased. The subsidiary has met the minimum purchase required in the agreement.

Employee Benefits and Private Pension Plan (Consolidated)


a. 
ULTRAPREV- Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar

In February 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of a defined contribution pension plan to be sponsored by the Company and each of its subsidiaries. Participating employees have been contributing to this plan, managed by Ultraprev - Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar (“Ultraprev”), since August 2001. Under the terms of the plan, every year each participating employee chooses his or her basic contribution to the plan. Each sponsoring company provides a matching contribution in an amount equivalent to each basic contribution, up to a limit of 11% of the employee’s reference salary, according to the rules of the plan. As participating employees retire, they may choose to receive either (i) a monthly sum ranging between 0.5% and 1.0% of their respective accumulated fund in Ultraprev or (ii) a fixed monthly amount which will exhaust their respective accumulated fund over a period of 5 to 25 years. The sponsoring company does not guarantee the amounts or the duration of the benefits received by each employee that retires. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 14,633 (R$ 13,196 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013) to Ultraprev, which is recognized as expense in the income statement. The total number of participating employees as of September 30, 2014 was 6,832 active participants and 133 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 29 former employees receiving benefits under the rules of a previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

Considerations on the financial and operational information
 
Standards and criteria adopted in preparing the information
 
The financial information presented in this document has been prepared based on the interim financial information for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, prepared in accordance with IAS 34 issued by the IASB, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1), and presented in accordance with standards established by CVM. The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The financial information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz, Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated financial information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.

In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar’s financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma’s results and its operational data included in this release refer, for the first nine months of 2014, exclusively to the months from February to September 2014. Aiming to provide a comparison basis for the analysis of the evolution of Extrafarma’s performance, we present its results for 9M13 including the months from February to September 2013. As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, 12,021,100 new common, nominative book-entry shares with no par value of Ultrapar were issued, which corresponded to R$ 141.9 million of capital increase and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in equity of R$ 640.7 million. In addition, Ultrapar issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, would lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken down into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. On June 30, 2014, in a preliminary assessment of the working capital and indebtedness adjustments the company identified that the subscription warrants – working capital shall not be exercised by the former shareholders of Extrafarma. Accordingly, the company reversed full provision for the issuance of 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital, which corresponded to R$ 42.1 million at the closing date. The shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification may be exercised as from 2020 and corresponded to non-current liabilities of R$ 108.6 million as of the closing date of the transaction. The provisory value of the association on September 30, 2014 is R$ 749.3 million, subject to adjustments pursuant to the association agreement. For more information, see Note 3.a and Note 22 to our Interim Financial Information (ITR) for 3Q14.

Compared to 2Q14, Ultrapar’s EBITDA increased by 5%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods. In 9M14, Ultrapar's EBITDA totaled R$ 2,242 million, up 8% compared to 9M13.

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

The performance analysis for each segment is presented below:

Ipiranga

Operational performance: In 3Q14, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 6%, driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and investments made in network expansion. Diesel sales volume at Ipiranga service stations increased by 2% as a result of investments in network expansion. Total diesel sales volume decreased by 3% in 3Q14, as a result of the poor economic performance and the non-renewal of an important contract in large consumers segment. As a result, Ipiranga's sales volume totaled 6,539 thousand cubic meters in 3Q14, 1% above 3Q13 volume. Compared with 2Q14, sales volume increased by 4%, mainly due to seasonality between periods. In 9M14, Ipiranga accumulated sales volume of 18,899 thousand cubic meters, up 4% over 9M13.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ipiranga's net revenue from sales and services reached R$ 14,946 million in 3Q14, up 7% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel and gasoline costs by Petrobras in November 2013 and increased ethanol costs, and (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the expansion of the service station network, which enabled an increased share of fuels for light vehicles and of diesel sold through the reseller segment (sales at service stations). Compared to 2Q14, net revenue from sales and services increased by 3% as a result of seasonally higher volume. In 9M14, net revenue from sales and services amounted to R$ 43,341 million, up 11% over 9M13.

Cost of products sold: Ipiranga's cost of products sold totaled R$ 14,083 million in 3Q14, up 7% compared to 3Q13, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume and (ii) cost increases in diesel and gasoline by Petrobras in November 2013, and consequently in ethanol. Compared to 2Q14, cost of products sold sold increased 3%, mainly due to seasonally higher volume. In 9M14, cost of products sold sold totaled R$ 40,820 million, up 11% over 9M13.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ipiranga's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 466 million in 3Q14, up 2% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of the expansion of the distribution network and the effects of inflation on expenses, partially offset by lower expenses with advertising and marketing and variable compensation. Compared with 2Q14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 2%, mainly due to the increase in sales volume and increased expenses with projects, partially offset by increased expenses with advertising and marketing in 2Q14, mainly related to the 2014 World Cup. In 9M14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 1,406 million, up 7% compared to 9M13.

EBITDA: Ipiranga's EBITDA reached R$ 557 million in 3Q14, an increase of 13% compared to 3Q13, due to (i) increased sales of fuels for light vehicles and diesel sold through the reseller segment, with an improved sales mix, (ii) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at stations, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty, and (iii) lower expenses with advertising & marketing and variable compensation. Compared to 2Q14, EBITDA increased by 7%, mainly due to seasonally higher sales volume. In 9M14, EBITDA totaled R$ 1,577 million, up 12% over 9M13.

Oxiteno

Operational performance: Total sales volume in the Brazilian market increased by 8% (10 thousand tons) year-over-year, mainly due to higher sales of glycols, which in 3Q13 had been reduced in preparation for the scheduled stoppage at the Camaçari petrochemical complex that occurred in 4Q13. In 3Q14, specialty chemical sales in the domestic market was down 2% (3 thousand tons) compared to 3Q13 due to different economic conditions in both periods (growth in 3Q13 and slowdown in 3Q14). In the international market, sales volume increased by 3% (1 thousand tons), mainly as a result of higher sales of glycols, partially offset by the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela since 1Q14, due to limitations in raw material imports in that country. With all these effects, Oxiteno's sales volume in 3Q14 totaled 204 thousand tons, an increase of 6% (12 thousand tons) compared to 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, sales volume grew by 7% (14 thousand tons), with a 5% (8 thousand tons) increase in sales of specialty chemicals. Sales volume in 9M14 totaled 586 thousand tons, down 2% (11 thousand tons) from 9M13.

Net revenue from sales and services: Oxiteno's net revenue from sales and services totaled R$ 872 million in 3Q14, up 1% over 3Q13, due to a 6% increase in sales volume, substantially offset by a 5% lower average dollar price, as a result of (i) the increased share of glycols in the sales mix, (ii) a decrease in international glycol prices, influenced by the global economic scenario, and (iii) a more favorable foreign exchange environment during 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, net revenue from sales and services increased by 7%, mainly due to higher sales volume. Net revenue from sales and services in 9M14 were R$ 2,526 million, up 3% over 9M13.

Cost of products sold: Oxiteno's cost of products sold in 3Q14 amounted to R$ 682 million, up 10% over 3Q13, due to the 6% growth in sales volume and a 6% increase in unit variable costs in dollars, mainly due to increased palm kernel oil prices. Compared to 2Q14, cost of products sold increased by 8% due to higher sales volume. In 9M14, cost of products sold totaled R$ 1,951 million, up 6% over 9M13.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Oxiteno's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 127 million in 3Q14, down 5% from 3Q13, mainly due to lower expenses with variable compensation, which were partially offset by higher logistics expenses. Compared to 2Q14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 9% due to higher logistics expenses. In 9M14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 373 million, up 4% compared to 9M13.

EBITDA: Oxiteno's EBITDA totaled R$ 99 million (or US$ 212/ton) in 3Q14, a 32% decrease from the record EBITDA in 3Q13, mainly as a result of lower sales of specialty chemicals, influenced by the slowdown of the economic activity and the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela, in addition to foreign exchange rate and market conditions that were more favorable to Oxiteno in 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, EBITDA remained practically stable, with the increased sales volume being offset by a less favorable sales mix. In 9M14, EBITDA totaled R$ 306 million, down 8% from 9M13.

Ultragaz

Operational performance: In 3Q14, Ultragaz's sales volume reached 461 thousand tons, up 3% over 3Q13, driven mainly by the 4% growth in the bottled segment, a result of commercial initiatives and the market growth in North and Northeast regions of Brazil, followed by a 1% growth in the bulk segment, a result of investments made to capture new customers, especially in the residential and small- and medium-sized companies segments. Compared to 2Q14, sales volume increased by 8%, mainly as a result of the seasonality between periods. In 9M14, sales volume totaled 1,281 thousand tons, up 1% over 9M13.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ultragaz's net revenue from sales and services amounted to R$ 1,095 million in 3Q14, a 4% growth over 3Q13, due to the increased sales volume and commercial initiatives in segments with greater demand, such as the residential and emerging regions in North and Northeast of Brazil. Compared to 2Q14, net revenue from sales and services increased by 8%, due to the higher sales volume. In 9M14, net revenue from sales and services reached R$ 3,036 million, up 2% over 9M13.

Cost of products sold: Ultragaz's cost of products sold totaled R$ 926 million in 3Q14, a 4% growth compared to 3Q13, due to the growth in sales volume. Compared with 2Q14, cost of products sold increased by 7%,

 
101

 

mainly due to the seasonally higher volume, partially offset by costs related to the requalification of a larger number of LPG bottles in 2Q14. In 9M14, cost of products sold totaled R$ 2,589 million, up 2% compared to 9M13.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Ultragaz's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 114 million in 3Q14, up 1% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of the effects of inflation on expenses, offset by initiatives implemented to reduce expenses.

In 9M14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 327 million, up 2% over 9M13.

EBITDA: Ultragaz reported an EBITDA of R$ 89 million in 3Q14, up 11% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of higher sales volume and expense reduction and commercial initiatives implemented in the period. Compared to 2Q14, EBITDA grew 22%, mainly due to the seasonally higher volume and costs related to the requalification of a larger number of LPG bottles in 2Q14. In 9M14, EBITDA totaled R$ 224 million, up 3% over 9M13.

Ultracargo

Operational performance: In 3Q14, Ultracargo's average storage decreased by 1% compared to 3Q13, mainly due to lower exports of ethanol and the effects of the slowdown of the economy in handling of chemicals, effects partially offset by greater handling of fuel oil for thermoelectric plants and fuels for vehicles, as a result of the growth in these markets. Compared to 2Q14, average storage remained practically stable. In 9M14, terminals average storage utilization increased by 4% compared to 9M13.

Net revenue from sales and services: Ultracargo's net revenue from sales and services totaled R$ 90 million in 3Q14, up 1% and 2% over 3Q13 and 2Q14, respectively, mainly due to contractual tariff adjustments. In 9M14, net revenue from sales and services totaled R$ 263 million, up 5% over 9M13.
 
Cost of services provided: Ultracargo's cost of services provided in 3Q14 amounted to R$ 36 million, down 1% from 3Q13, mainly due to the lower average storage.

Extrafarma

As highlighted in "Considerations on the financial and operational information", unless otherwise indicated, Extrafarma information for 9M14 and 9M13 refers to the months of February to September of each year.

Operational performance: Extrafarma ended 3Q14 with 210 drugstores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 drugstores (14%) compared to the end of 3Q13. Due to the expansion of Extrafarma's drugstore network, at the end of 3Q14, about 30% of the drugstores were under-36 months of operation, compared to 32% in 3Q13. However, total drugstores with less than one year of operation in 3Q14 was 14%, compared to 10% in 3Q13, as a result of the accelerated pace of drugstores openings during the last 12 months.

Gross revenues: Extrafarma's gross revenues totaled R$ 327 million in 3Q14, an increase of 14% compared to 3Q13, mainly due to the increase of 14% in gross revenues of the retail segment, which totaled R$ 280 million. The growth in gross revenues of the retail segment is mainly derived from the increased average number of drugstores and from the 6.2% increase in revenues of the drugstores with more than 1 year (same store sales). During 3Q14, gross revenues of the wholesale segment increased by 17% compared to 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, gross revenues increased by 6%, mainly due to the 7% increase in the gross revenues of the retail

segment, influenced by the effects related to the World Cup in 2Q14. In 9M14, gross revenues totaled R$ 825 million, up 16% over 9M13.

Cost of products sold and gross profit: Extrafarma's cost of products sold totaled R$ 215 million in 3Q14, up 11% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of increased sales and the annual adjustment in the prices of medicines, set by the Chamber for the Regulation of the Medical Pharmaceuticals Market (CMED). Gross profit reached R$ 94 million, up 21% over 3Q13, mainly due to the growth in gross revenues in the retail segment and improved sales mix, with a 0.5 p.p. rise in the share of generic medicines. In relation to 2Q14, cost of products sold and gross profit increased by 7% and 3%, respectively, mainly due to the increased sales. In 9M14, cost of products sold totaled R$ 540 million, up 14% over 9M13, while gross profit increased by 19%, amounting to R$ 243 million.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses: Extrafarma's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 95 million in 3Q14, a 45% increase over 3Q13, mainly due to (i) the 13% increase in the average number of drugstores, (ii) the increases above inflation on unit expenses with personnel and (iii) expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth in the amount of R$ 15 million in 3Q14. Compared to 2Q14, selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 17%, due to greater expenses with integration and structuring. In 9M14, Extrafarma's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 226 million, up 38% over 9M13, of which R$ 24 million refer to expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth.

EBITDA: Extrafarma's EBITDA totaled R$ 17 million in 3Q14, a 43% increase over 3Q13 excluding the expenses with integration and structuring, due to revenues growth, partially reduced by the greater number of drugstores opened less than one year ago, still in the maturing process. EBITDA margin in 3Q14 was 5.1%, 1.0 p.p. above the EBITDA margin in 3Q13, mainly due to the improved sales mix. Reported EBITDA (which includes expenses with integration and structuring) totaled R$ 2 million in 3Q14. Compared to 2Q14, reported EBITDA decreased by 89%, mainly due to the higher concentration of integration and structuring expenses. In 9M14, Extrafarma's EBITDA totaled R$ 26 million, down 38% over 9M13.

Considerations on the financial and operational information
 
The financial information presented in this document has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The information of Ipiranga, Oxiteno, Ultragaz, Ultracargo and Extrafarma is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated information of Ultrapar. In addition, the financial and operational information presented in this document is subject to rounding off and, consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables and charts may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.
 
In September 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma. The transaction was closed on January 31, 2014 upon the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results were consolidated in Ultrapar’s financial statements as from February 1, 2014. Consequently, Ultrapar’s financial statements for the periods prior to February 1, 2014 do not include Extrafarma’s results and its operational data included in this release refer, for the first nine months of 2014, exclusively to the months from February to September 2014. Aiming to provide a comparison basis for the analysis of the evolution of Extrafarma’s performance, we present its results for 9M13 including the months from February to September 2013. As a consequence of the closing of the transaction, 12,021,100 new common, nominative book-entry shares with no par value of Ultrapar were issued, which corresponded to R$ 141.9 million of capital increase and R$ 498.8 million of increase in capital reserve, totaling an increase in equity of R$ 640.7 million. In addition, Ultrapar issued subscription warrants that, if exercised, would lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, broken down into 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital and 3,205,622 shares related to subscription warrants – indemnification. On June 30, 2014, in a preliminary assessment of the working capital and indebtedness adjustments the company identified that the subscription warrants – working capital shall not be exercised by the former shareholders of Extrafarma. Accordingly, the company reversed full provision for the issuance of 801,409 shares related to subscription warrants – working capital, which corresponded to R$ 42.1 million at the closing date. The shares of the subscription warrants – indemnification may be exercised as from 2020 and corresponded to non-current liabilities of R$ 108.6 million as of the closing date of the transaction. The provisory value of the association on September 30, 2014 is R$ 749.3 million, subject to adjustments pursuant to the association agreement. For more information, see Note 3.a and Note 22 to our Interim Financial Information (ITR) for 3Q14.

Integration of Extrafarma – During 3Q14, we completed the integration of Extrafarma and continued the structuring of the company to enable it to accelerate drugstore openings. Among the main advancements to enable this acceleration we highlight (i) the opening of a new distribution center in Ceará in November, (ii) the establishment of a new organizational structure, with the creation of areas dedicated to the activities related to operations and expansion, allowing greater specialization and agility in the drugstore opening process, (iii) improvements in operational systems, resulting in better productivity, control, and data analysis, (iv) the development of a process for the opening of drugstore in an "industrial scale", including hiring and training of professionals, with an average 25% reduction of the period to open a new drugstore, and (v) the implementation of an entrepreneurship culture development program aiming at greater effectiveness in the drugstore management. We will start implementing this plan in the coming months, starting with the North and Northeast regions, with the goal of setting a pace of 100 new drugstores openings per year throughout 2015.

Executive summary of the results
 
Following the 0.9% GDP drop in 2Q14, we experienced again in 3Q14 a worsening macroeconomic scenario, creating an increasingly challenging business environment, characterized by continued high inflation rates, soaring interest rates, and sharp negative adjustments in expectations for the Brazilian economic performance in 2014, as shown by the evolution of the Central Bank's Focus research. In the international scenario, the weakening of global economic indicators started to influence commodities prices, especially of oil and its derivatives, thus creating a downward trend strengthened over the month of October. This environment is in severe contrast to that in 3Q13, when Brazil's GDP grew by 2.4% and the U.S. economy was expected to resume growth (influencing positively commodities prices), which led to a strong depreciation of the Real during the quarter. In 3Q14, the exchange rate remained stable until mid-September, when the Real started to depreciate due to the volatility created by the Brazilian electoral period. These differences in the macroeconomic context and the international scenario, with an effect on commodities prices, caused a relevant impact on Oxiteno, influencing the company's results positively in 3Q13 (allowing an all-time quarterly EBITDA record) and negatively in 3Q14.
 
On the other hand, according to data from Anfavea, the number of light vehicles fleet registered in 3Q14 totaled 0.8 million, thus maintaining the pace of growth in the average fleet seen in recent years. Sales in the retail pharmacy sector, according to data from members of Abrafarma, grew 12% in 3Q14 compared to 3Q13, continuing the growth seen in recent years.
 
In this economic and operational environment, Ultrapar reported consolidated EBITDA of R$ 789 million in 3Q14, a 3% growth over 3Q13.
 
At Ipiranga, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) was the positive highlight in 3Q14, growing by 6% compared to 3Q13, driven by growth in the light vehicle fleet and by investments made in recent years in Ipiranga's network expansion (opening of new service stations and conversion of unbranded service stations) and related logistics infrastructure. EBITDA reached R$ 557 million, an increase of 13% compared to 3Q13, mainly due to increased sales of fuels for light vehicles, with an improved sales mix, to the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at the service stations, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty, and to lower expenses with advertising & marketing and variable compensation.
 
At Oxiteno, sales volume reached 204 thousand tons, up 6% over 3Q13, mainly concentrated in glycol sales growth, partially offset by lower sales of specialty chemicals, which were influenced by the effects of the slowdown of the economy and the reduction in the level of operations in Venezuela since 1Q14, due to limitations in importing raw material in that country. Oxiteno's EBITDA totaled R$ 99 million in 3Q14, a 32% decrease from the record EBITDA in 3Q13, mainly as a result of lower sales of specialty chemicals and the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela, in addition to more favorable foreign exchange rate and market conditions in 3Q13.
 
In 3Q14, Ultragaz reported a growth of 3% in sales volume compared to 3Q13, mainly due to an increase of 4% in the bottled segment, due to commercial initiatives and the market growth in the North and Northeast regions. In 3Q14, Ultragaz's EBITDA totaled R$ 89 million, up 11% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of an increase in sales volume and commercial and cost reduction initiatives implemented in the period.
 
At Ultracargo, the average storage decreased by 1% from 3Q13, mainly due to lower ethanol exports and lower handling of chemicals, as a result of the GDP performance. Ultracargo's EBITDA reached R$ 44 million in 3Q14, up 7% over 3Q13, mainly due to contractual tariff adjustments and lower expenses with projects.
 
Extrafarma ended 3Q14 with 210 company-owned stores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 stores compared to 3Q13. Extrafarma's EBITDA, excluding expenses with integration and structuring, amounted to R$ 17 million, up 43% over 3Q13, due to the increased number of stores, the 6% increase in same store sales, and an improved sales mix, with a greater share of generic medicines.
 
Net earnings in 3Q14 totaled R$ 329 million, practically stable compared to 3Q13, due to the growth in EBITDA and financial expenses compared to 3Q13, influenced by the 2.0 p.p. rise in the base interest rate between September 2013 and September 2014.

Ipiranga
 
Operational performance – In 3Q14, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 6%, driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and investments made in network expansion. Diesel sales volume at Ipiranga service stations increased by 2% as a result of investments in network expansion. Total diesel sales volume decreased by 3% in 3Q14, as a result of the poor economic performance and the non-renewal of an important contract in large consumers segment. As a result, Ipiranga's sales volume totaled 6,539 thousand cubic meters in 3Q14, 1% above 3Q13 volume. Compared with 2Q14, sales volume increased by 4%, mainly due to seasonality between periods.

Compared with 2Q14, sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 2%, mainly due to the increase in sales volume and increased expenses with projects, partially offset by increased expenses with advertising and marketing in 2Q14, mainly related to the 2014 World Cup. In 9M14, sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 1,406 million, up 7% compared to 9M13.

Oxiteno
 
Operational performance – Total sales volume in the Brazilian market increased by 8% (10 thousand tons) year-over-year, mainly due to higher sales of glycols, which in 3Q13 had been reduced in preparation for the scheduled stoppage at the Camaçari petrochemical complex that occurred in 4Q13. In 3Q14, specialty chemical sales in the domestic market was down 2% (3 thousand tons) compared to 3Q13 due to different economic conditions in both periods (growth in 3Q13 and slowdown in 3Q14). In the international market, sales volume increased by 3% (1 thousand tons), mainly as a result of higher sales of glycols, partially offset by the reduction in the operating level in Venezuela since 1Q14, due to limitations in raw material imports in that country. With all these effects, Oxiteno's sales volume in 3Q14 totaled 204 thousand tons, an increase of 6% (12 thousand tons) compared to 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, sales volume grew by 7% (14 thousand tons), with a 5% (8 thousand tons) increase in sales of specialty chemicals.

Extrafarma
As highlighted in "Considerations on the financial and operational information", unless otherwise indicated, Extrafarma information for 9M14 and 9M13 refers to the months from February to September of each year.
 
Operational performance – Extrafarma ended 3Q14 with 210 drugstores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil, an increase of 25 drugstores (14%) compared to the end of 3Q13. Due to the expansion of Extrafarma's drugstore network, at the end of 3Q14, about 30% of the drugstores were under-36 months of operation, compared to 32% in 3Q13. However, total drugstores with less than one year of operation in 3Q14 was 14%, compared to 10% in 3Q13, as a result of the accelerated pace of drugstores openings during the last 12 months.
 
 
Gross revenues – Extrafarma's gross revenues totaled R$ 327 million in 3Q14, an increase of 14% compared to 3Q13, mainly due to the increase of 14% in gross revenues of the retail segment, which totaled R$ 280 million. The growth in gross revenues of the retail segment is mainly derived from the increased average number of drugstores and from the 6.2% increase in revenues of the drugstores with more than 1 year (same store sales). During 3Q14, gross revenues of the wholesale segment increased by 17% compared to 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, gross revenues increased by 6%, mainly due to the 7% increase in the gross revenues of the retail segment, influenced by the effects related to the World Cup in 2Q14. In 9M14, gross revenues totaled R$ 825 million, up 16% over 9M13.
 
Cost of goods sold and gross profit – Extrafarma's cost of goods sold totaled R$ 215 million in 3Q14, up 11% over 3Q13, mainly as a result of increased sales and the annual adjustment in the prices of medicines, set by the Chamber for the Regulation of the Medical Pharmaceuticals Market (CMED). Gross profit reached R$ 94 million, up 21% over 3Q13, mainly due to the growth in gross revenues in the retail segment and improved sales mix, with a 0.5 p.p. rise in the share of generic medicines. In relation to 2Q14, cost of goods sold and gross profit increased by 7% and 3%, respectively, mainly due to the increased sales. In 9M14, cost of goods sold totaled R$ 540 million, up 14% over 9M13, while gross profit increased by 19%, amounting to R$ 243 million.
 
Sales, general and administrative expenses – Extrafarma's sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 95 million in 3Q14, a 45% increase over 3Q13, mainly due to (i) the 13% increase in the average number of drugstores, (ii) the increases above inflation on unit expenses with personnel and (iii) expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth in the amount of R$ 15 million in 3Q14. Compared to 2Q14, sales, general and administrative expenses increased by 17%, due to greater expenses with integration and structuring. In 9M14, Extrafarma's sales, general and administrative expenses totaled R$ 226 million, up 38% over 9M13, of which R$ 24 million refer to expenses with the integration with Ultrapar and the structuring of Extrafarma for a more accelerated growth.
 
EBITDA – Extrafarma's EBITDA totaled R$ 17 million in 3Q14, a 43% increase over 3Q13 excluding the expenses with integration and structuring, due to revenues growth, partially reduced by the greater number of drugstores opened less than one year ago, still in the maturing process. EBITDA margin in 3Q14 was 5.1%, 1.0 p.p. above the EBITDA margin in 3Q13, mainly due to the improved sales mix. Reported EBITDA (which includes expenses with integration and structuring) totaled R$ 2 million in 3Q14. Compared to 2Q14, reported EBITDA decreased by 89%, mainly due to the higher concentration of integration and structuring expenses. In 9M14, Extrafarma's EBITDA totaled R$ 26 million, down 38% over 9M13.

In 9M14, Ultrapar's net sales and services increased by 12% compared to 9M13, totaling R$ 49,914 million.
 
EBITDA – Ultrapar's consolidated EBITDA totaled R$ 789 million in 3Q14, up 3% over 3Q13, despite the slowdown of the Brazilian economy, as a result of the EBITDA growth in all businesses, except for Oxiteno, mainly due to the strong comparison basis with record EBITDA in 3Q13. Compared to 2Q14, Ultrapar’s EBITDA increased by 5%, mainly due to the seasonality between periods. In 9M14, Ultrapar's EBITDA totaled R$ 2,242 million, up 8% compared to 9M13.

In 9M14, Ultrapar’s total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses amounted to R$ 651 million, up 13% over 9M13.
 
Financial results – Ultrapar's net debt at the end of September 2014 was R$ 4.4 billion (1.4 times LTM EBITDA), compared to R$ 3.6 billion in September 2013 (1.3 times LTM EBITDA). Ultrapar reported R$ 107 million of net financial expenses in 3Q14, which was R$ 18 million higher than that in 3Q13, mainly due to the 2.0 p.p. rise in the base interest rate between September 2014 and September 2013 and the increased net debt in 3Q14. Compared to 2Q14, Ultrapar's net financial expenses increased R$ 9 million, mainly due to increased net debt in 3Q14. In 9M14, Ultrapar reported net financial expenses of R$ 321 million, R$ 77 million higher than that in 9M13.
 
Net earnings – Ultrapar's consolidated net earnings in 3Q14 amounted to R$ 329 million, in line with 3Q13 and up 9% over 2Q14, mainly due to the growth on EBITDA and financial expenses compared to each period. In 9M14, Ultrapar reported net earnings of R$ 879 million, 3% higher than that in 9M13.

Outlook
 
Even with the maintenance of a challenging economic environment, we expect to continue the trajectory of long-term growth of our results, based on the characteristics of our businesses and the consistent planning and execution of our strategy, reaping benefits from investments made and from the growth of our markets. Ipiranga will continue to invest in the expansion of its service station network and its related logistics infrastructure, focused on the North, Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil, and will continue to leverage the benefits from the resilient growth of consumption of fuels for light vehicles fleet in Brazil. Additionally, the company will proceed with its differentiation initiatives, based on increasing the offer of products, services and convenience, to further increase customer loyalty and expand the number of clients. Oxiteno will keep the focus on innovation, with the development of new products, and will act to maximize the benefits from the maturing process of investments made in production capacity expansion in Brazil. Ultracargo will remain focused on capturing the benefits generated by the expansion of its existing terminals and will keep attentive to opportunities from the growing demand for liquid bulk storage. Ultragaz, on its turn, will be focused on obtaining the benefits from the investments in capturing new customers and on managing costs and expenses constantly. At Extrafarma, we will keep focused on structuring the company for a more accelerated expansion, which will be implemented in the next months.
