Message from Management
GOL’s 2015 financial results reflect the Brazilian economic scenario since the end of 2014, which impacted the national aviation industry.
GOL recorded an operating loss of R$183.8 million in the year, with a negative margin of 1.9%. In 2015, net loss was R$4,291.2 million - mainly a result of the devaluation of the Real and of the Venezuelan Bolivar against the US Dollar, as well as lower deferred tax credits and income tax. For the last five years, the exchange rate impact to GOL totaled R$4,481.3 million, which in turn resulted in accounting terms of a negative shareholder equity of R$4,322.4 million.
In the last quarter of the year, we intensified the strategy of capacity rationalization in the domestic market, reducing ASK by 3.7%. For 2016, we have reviewed our supply projection, that is: (i) the reduction of 15 to 18% on the availability of seats, (ii) 15 to 18% lower volume of departures - compared to at least 6%; and (iii) 5 to 8% lower ASK. This initiative aims to adjust the Company to the current level of demand in the market, as well as mitigate the 10.7% inflationary impact and the 47.0% exchange rate effect on our 2015 results.
Operating within this adverse environment, we ended the year with approximately R$2.3 billion in total cash - equivalent to 23.5% of the revenue accumulated in the last twelve months. This position already considers a loss of R$423.8 million in funds held in Venezuela, after conversion at the (SIMAD) exchange rate of BS 200 per Dollar, in line with the Company's decision to suspend flights to this country.
Maintaining our strategy to strengthen liquidity, we have conducted a transaction for advance ticket sales in 2016 in the amount of R$1 billion for Smiles – conditioned on measures to be taken by GOL, including, but not limited to the following: (i) the sale of 5 aircraft; (ii) the suspension of 7 destinations; (iii) the change in new aircraft deliveries for years 2016 and 2017 from 15 to 1 and (iv) the reduction of at least 6% of the volume of departures in the year.
In accordance with the Company's business plan, we started a project with PJT, a financial advisory services firm, and with Skyworks, advisory services firm for the revision of aircraft contracts. These companies were retained to assist with capital structure optimization and to review the obligations of aircraft under operating lease contracts. These, along with other initiatives involving all GOL’s stakeholders, will compose a reversal plan to improve current results and lead to the resumption of positive free cash flow.
Together with the previous measures and with the same commitment to improve the customer experience and improving operational indicators, we have reached major milestones in 2015, such as the total volume of operations in the domestic market, amounting to 270,446 flights - the largest among Brazilian airlines. We also received the "Outstanding Company by Consumidor Moderno" excellence in service award, in the segment "Airlines", and we maintained our leadership in on time perfomance with a 95.4% rate – which represents 0.9 percentage points above the industry average. These results reaffirm our focus on excellence in customer service.
As already announced in 2015, we will be the first Brazilian, South and Central American airline to provide in-flight entertainment and wi-fi access, which will be easily accessed through a mobile or portable entertainment device, whether smartphone, tablet or notebook. All of our aircraft will also feature renovated seats with an ecological leather finish, something that will provide even more comfort to the customers.
In addition to the new connectivity and entertainment platform, we have repositioned the Comfort Class, which, from now on, will be called Class GOL Premium. Our international flight passengers will enjoy exclusive benefits that will make every moment of the journey - from check-in to the landing - a pleasant experience with even more comfort and convenience through the entire flight.
With the full confidence that we are building an even stronger, robust and efficient GOL - even in this turbulent period -, we count on the commitment and dedication of our Team of Eagles, the satisfaction and loyalty of our Customers and support of our investors and partners.

Independent auditor’s report on financial statements
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors and Officers of
Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A.
São Paulo - SP
We have audited the accompanying individual and consolidated financial statements of Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“the Company”), identified as individual and consolidated, respectively, which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2015, and the related income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting practices and other explanatory information.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the individual and consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and for such internal controls as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Brazilian and international standards on auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting practices used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the aforementioned individual and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the individual and consolidated financial position of Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. at December 31, 2015, the individual and consolidated performance of its operations and the respective cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
1. General information
Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“Company” or “GLAI”) is a publicly-listed company established on March 12, 2004, in accordance with the Brazilian Corporate Laws. The Company is engaged in controlling its subsidiaries: (i) VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A. (“VRG”), which essentially explores (a) the regular and non-regular flight transportation services of passengers, cargo and mailbags, domestically or internationally, according to the concessions granted by the competent authorities; and (b) complementary activities of flight transport services provided in its bylaws; and (ii) Smiles S.A., which mainly operates (a) the development and management of its own or third party’s customer loyalty program, and (b) sale of redemption rights of awards related to the loyalty program.
Additionally, the Company is the direct parent Company of the wholly-owned subsidiaries GAC Inc. (“GAC”), Gol Finance Inc. (“Gol Finance”), Gol LuxCo S.A. (“Gol LuxCo”), Gol Dominicana Lineas Aereas SAS (“Gol Dominicana”) and indirect parent Company of Webjet Linhas Aéreas S.A. ("Webjet").
The Company’s registered Office is at Praça Comandante Linneu Gomes, s/n, portaria 3, prédio 24, Jardim Aeroporto, São Paulo, Brazil.
The Company’s shares are traded on BM&FBOVESPA and on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The Company adopted Differentiated Corporate Governance Practices of Level 2 from BM&FBOVESPA and is included in the Special Corporate Governance Stock Index (“IGC”) and the Special Tag Along Stock Index (“ITAG”), which were created to identify companies committed to the differentiated corporate governance practices.
1.1 Short-term business plan
VRG has been significantly affected by the devaluation of the Brazilian currency, as the Company's costs totaled approximately 50% denominated in U.S. Dollar in the year 2015, while revenues, approximately 10%. In addition, factors such as the Brazilian GDP downgrade (economic downturn), excessive supply on the market and the worsening economic crisis that impact the demand of corporate and government clients, have been an adverse scenario the Company's operations.
Under this context, the Company reassessed its business plan and incorporated strategies that, once implemented, should be sufficient to ensure the continuity of the Company’s operations. Among the short-term strategies, it highlights four pillars to recovery the operating margin for the periods 2016 and 2017, as well as the solvency maintenance:
(a) Liquidity initiatives: negotiation with customers and strategic suppliers to maintain the short term, among which stands out postponement agreements of aircraft arrivals for next years, the advance purchase airline tickets agreement with subsidiary Smiles and the renegotiation of maturity of the agreements along with suppliers and receivables anticipation with customers.
(b) The Company will redesign its flight route network in order to focus on the most profitable routes under the operation. The readjustment of the flight network, which has already been approved by the regulators agencies, will occur from May, 2016.
(c) As a result of the readjustment of flight network, the Company is also working on readjusting and reducing the number of aircraft held in the operation, which will result in the reduction of available seats, providing alignment between supply and demand inside the domestic market. Company's forecast is that at least 19 aircraft will be returned. These measures will provide a substantial decrease in costs for maintaining the current fleet. These measures aim to readjust the Company' structure to sustainable levels.
(d) Readjustment of the debt structure and leasing for the purpose of reviewing the amounts related to lease agreements that are part of the Company's debt structure. For the implementation of these initiatives were hired financial and technical support for contractual review and analysis of possible opportunities to reduce financial costs. As part of the plan, the Company announced the hiring of services of Sky Works companies for review of existing lease agreements.
It is highlighted that, even the business plan presenting actions that are likely to be implemented, the uncertainty
28
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
political and economic scenario in Brazil may impact the effectiveness of the return expected. Additionally, the high volatility of macroeconomic variables raises uncertainties that could compromise the generation of future results and the maintenance of the cash position.
The Management believes that the business plan prepared, submitted and approved by the Board of Directors on February 18, 2016 shows strong elements in accordance with the continued operation. Management believes that its plans are feasible and that, once completed, should lead the Company to a level of strenght required to respond more effectively to the high volatility of the conditions and/or adverse events. The Management believes that the non-implementation of the measures previously provided can compromise the profitability and solvency of the operation and thus reinforces its commitment to implement all the necessary measures to ensure implementation of the plan and implement the necessary efforts to ensure the return expected.

(*) The extensions are entities organized for the specific purpose of continuing the headquarter operation, or yet, present rights and/or obligations in order to supply the Company`s requirements. Besides, do not hold an independent management itself and do not have autonomy on taking decisions. These entities present the consolidated assets and liabilities side by side on the individual financial statements.
The accounting policies were applied consistently in all the consolidated entities and are consistent with those used in previous years. All the transactions, balances, income and expenses between the consolidated entities are fully eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
b) Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash
Are classified bank deposits and short term investments which have high liquidity and are readily convertible into an amount of cash and have an insignificant risk of value changes. Restricted cash primary consists on financial applications measured at fair value through profit or loss, as guarantees related to financial instruments and short and long-term financing. Financial applications include exclusive investment funds, which are fully consolidated.
c) Trade receivables
Are measured based on cost (less allowances for doubtful accounts), which approximates its fair value, due to its short-term features. The allowance for doubtful accounts is made for all accounts overdue for more than 90 days for installment sales by Voe Fácil Program, travel and cargo agencies, and 180 days for airline partners. Additionally, in some cases, the Company performs individual analysis of the receivable risks.
d) Inventories
Inventories are composed primarily of maintenance and spare parts and materials. The costs of inventories are determined under the average cost method and include expenses incurred in their acquisition and transportation to their current location. The provision for inventory obsolescence is recorded when losses are probable.
e) Financial assets and liabilities
Initially, the Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The subsequent measurement of certain asset and liability depends on the instrument classification, which is determined at initial
30
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
recognition and annually reviewed according with the Company's intentions. Consist of non-derivate financial investments and include investments in debt instruments, accounts receivable and other receivables, short and long-term loans, other accounts payable, other debts and derivative agreements.
½Measured at amortized cost: financial items with fixed or ascertainable payments that are not regularly traded before maturity are registered at amortized cost based on effective interest rate method. Inflation adjustment, interest and foreign exchange changes, net of impairment losses (if applicable), are registered in statement of operations as financial revenue or expenses, when incurred. The main assets that the Company held under this category are accounts receivable, deposits in guarantee and other credits, short and long-term debts (including finance leases) and trade accounts payable.
½Measured at fair value or available for sale: interest, inflation adjustment, foreign exchange changes and changes arising from the adjustment to fair value are recognized in statement of operations, as financial income or expenses. The Company holds short-term investments, cash equivalents and restricted cash classified under this category.
½Derivatives: Changes on aircraft fuel, interest and exchange rates expose the Company and its subsidiaries to risks that may affect its financial performance. In order to mitigate those risks, the Company uses financial instruments that may or may not be designated as hedge accounting, and, if designated, are classified as cash flow hedge or fair value hedge.
· Not designated as hedge accounting: the Company may use derivative financial instruments as not designated as hedge accounting when the objectives of the risk Management do not require such a classification. The non-designated operations represent the fair value variation directly recognized on financial result.
· Designated as cash flow hedge: hedge the income or expenses from the fluctuations on exchange rates. The effectiveness is based on statistical correlation methods and the ratio between gains and losses on the financial instruments used as hedge, and the cost and expense fluctuation of the hedged items. The instruments are considered as effective when the fluctuation in the value of derivatives offsets between 80% and 125% the impact of the price fluctuation on the cost or expense of the hedged item. The balance of the actual fluctuations in the fair values of the derivatives are classified on shareholder’s equity (under “Other comprehensive result”) and and the ineffective gains or losses are recognized as profit or loss for the period (under “Financial result”), until the revenue recognition or hedged expense under the same item of profit or loss in which the item is recognized.
· Designated as fair value hedge: the fair value of the derivative financial instruments is determined based on available market information and valuation methodologies. The Company uses the international practices for fair value hedge accounting in conterpart under profit or loss, and possible changes in fair value of the asset or liability hedged that are attributable to the hedged risk. As of December 31, 2015, there were no fair value hedges agreements.
31
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
½Derecognition and offsetting: the Company offsets a financial item only when the contractual right or obligation of the cash flow from this item expires, or when the asset is transferred and all the risks and benefits of this asset goes to a third part. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of the financial item transferred, but continues to control it, recognizes its retained portion and the related liability to the amounts payable. If maintains all the risks and benefits of the financial asset transferred, the Company maintains the register of the asset.
The hedge register is discontinued prospectively when the Company and its subsidiaries (i) cancel the hedge operation; (ii) the derivative matures or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or (iii) when no longer qualifies as hedge accounting. If the operation is discontinued, any gains or losses previously registered and accumulated on equity as “Other comprehensive results” until that date are registered on statement of operations as the operation is registered. When the Company expects that the hedge operation no longer occurs, the accumulated and deferred gains or losses on equity are immediately registered on profit or loss, under the same line that was previously registered.
f) Deposits
½Aircraft and engine maintenance deposits: refer to payments made in U.S. Dollars by the Company to commercial lease companies to be used in future aircraft and engine maintenance work. The realization of these assets occurs substantially by the receipts of funds, according to the renegotiations with the lessors. The exchange rate variations arising from payments, net of uses for maintenance, are recognized as an expense or revenue in the financial result. Management performs regular reviews of the recovery of maintenance deposits and believes that the values reflected in the consolidated balance sheet are recoverable.
Certain lease agreements establish that when the amounts previously used in maintenance services are lower than the amounts deposited, the existing deposits are not refundable. Any excess amounts retained by the lessor upon the lease contract termination date, which are not considered material, are recognized as additional aircraft lease expense.
Additionally, the Company maintains agreements with some lessors to replace deposits by letters of credit, which can be claimed by the lessor if the aircraft maintenance does not occur as established with the scheduled review. Many of the aircraft lease agreements do not require maintenance deposits and have the letters of credit as a guarantee that the maintenance periods will be executed as scheduled. Until December 31, 2015, no letter of credit had been executed.
½ Deposits in guarantee and collaterals for lease agreements: The deposits in guarantee and collaterals are in U.S. Dollar, and are monthly updated by the currency rate variation, with no interest generation and are reimbursable to the Company upon termination of the agreements.
g) Sale-leaseback transactions
Lease payments under operating lease is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term in “Aircraft leasing”. Future payments are not recognized in the financial statements but are future commitments undertaken are presented on Note 28.
The gains or losses from sale-leaseback transactions classified as operating lease after the sale are recorded as below:
· Immediately in statement of operations when the transaction is measured at fair value;
· If the transaction price is established below the fair value, the profit or loss is recognized in the statement of operations, except if the loss is offset by leasing future payments established below the market value (the gains or losses are amortized proportionally as the leasing is paid during the year the asset is expected to be used);
· If the sale price is higher than the fair value of the asset, the exceed value is deferred and amortized
32
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
during the year that the asset is expected to be used. The amortization of these gains is registered as a decrease of the leasing expenses.
The amount of deferred losses is registered as prepaid expense, and the amount of deferred gains is registered as other liabilities. The breakdown between short and long-term is in accordance with the leasing agreement maturity.
h) Property, plant and equipment
The property, plant and equipment items, including rotable parts, are recorded at acquisition or construction costs, including interest and other financial charges. Each component of property, plant and equipment that has a cost that is significant in relation to the overall cost of the item is depreciated separately. The estimated useful life for property and equipment, for depreciation purposes, is disclosed in Note 15.
The estimated market value at the end of its useful life is a premise for measuring the residual value of the Company’s property, plant and equipment. Except for aircraft with purchase option at the end of the agreements, the other items have no residual value. The residual value and the useful life of assets are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, at every year.
The carring amount of the property, plant and equipment is analyzed in order to verify possible impairment losses when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book amount is higher than the estimated recoverable amount.
A write-off of a fixed asset item occurs after disposal or when there is no future economic benefits resulting from continued use of the asset. Any gains or losses on fixed asset sales or write-offs are determined by the difference between the values received in the sale and the asset's book value, and are recognized in the statement of operations.
Additionally, the Company adopts the following treatment groups below:
½Pre-delivery deposits: refer to prepayments made based on the agreements entered into with Boeing Company for the purchase of Boeing 737-800 Next Generation and 737- MAX aircraft, by historical rate.
½Leasing agreements: assets held through financial leasing, when the risks and rewards are transferred to the Company, the asset is registered on the balance sheet. At the beginning of the leasing agreement, the Company registers the financial leasing as asset and liability at fair value, or, if lower, the present value of the minimum leasing payments.
The leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, when the Company does not hold the certainty that will obtain the asset property at the end of the leasing agreement, the asset is depreciated along with its expected useful life or the contractual lease term period, the lower from both.
The other engine and aircraft leasings are classified as operating leases and are registered as expenses on the statement of operations on a straight-line basis for the agreement maturity period.
½Expenses due to aircraft reconfiguration: the Company registers provisions for aircraft reconfiguration based on the return requirements, considering the costs regarding the return conditions on engines held under operating leases as Note 15. After the initial recognition, the asset is linearly depreciated over the terms of the contract.
½Capitalization of the costs from major maintenances: costs on major maintenance (including replacement and labor parts) are capitalized only when there is an extension of the estimated useful life of the engine. Such costs are capitalized and depreciated until the next major maintenance. Incurred costs that do not extend the useful life of the engine, or related to other components of the aircraft are recognized directly in profit or loss.
i) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are non-monetary assets without physical property, which book value is reviewed annually as to its recoverable amount, or when strong evidence of changes in circumstances indicates that
33
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
½Goodwill: The goodwill value is tested annually by comparing the balance amount to fair value recoverable from the cash-generating units (VRG and Smiles). The Management performs considerable judgment to assess the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes in order to estimate the future cash flows and measure the recoverable amount of that asset.
½Airport operating rights: were acquired as part of the acquisition of VRG and of Webjet, and were capitalized at fair value at the acquisition date and are not amortized. Those rights are considered to have an indefinite useful life due to several factors and considerations, including requirements and necessary permits to operate within Brazil and limited slot availability in the most important airports in terms of traffic volume. The carrying value of these rights is annually evaluated along with the cash generation unit (VRG) as to its recoverable amount or in case of changes in circumstances indicates that carrying values may not be recoverable. No impairment has been recorded until the present date.
½Software: The costs related to the acquisition or development of computer software that is separable from an item of related hardware is capitalized separately and amortized over a period on a straight-line basis in accordance with the software agreement.
j) Income taxes
The income tax and social contribution expenses are represented by the sum of current and deferred income taxes.
½Current taxes: the provision for income tax and social contribution is based on the years’ taxable income and tax loss carryforwards. The provisions for income and social contribution taxes are calculated individually for each Company in the group based on effective rates at the end of the year.
½Deferred tax: is recognized on temporary differences, tax losses and negative basis at the end of every period between the balances of assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements and tax bases used in calculation of taxable income.
The carring amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that is not probable that sufficient taxable profits will be incurred to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be realized.
Defered tax related to items recognized directly in equity also has its deferred tax recognized in equity and not in the income statement. Deferred tax items are recognized in accordance with the transaction that gave rise to deferred tax in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The tax credits from tax losses and negative basis of social contribution are registered based on the future tax profit expected from the indivual Company and its subsidiaries, in accordance with legal limitations.
The forecasts of future tax profits under tax losses and negative basis of social contribution are prepared based on the business plan, and are annually reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
k) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or presumed) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.
½Aircraft return provision: for some aircraft operating leases, the Company is contractually required to return the equipment in a predefined level of operational capability. In these cases, the Company accrues the cost of returning, since these are present obligations arising from past events that will generate future disbursements, which measurement is made with reasonable assurance. These costs are primarily related to expenses of aircraft reconfiguration (interior and exterior), obtaining licenses and certifications techniques, painting, etc. according to return agreement clauses. The estimated cost is initially recorded at present value and the consideration of the provision for aircraft return is made under "Aircraft reconfigurations/overhauling" of fixed assets (see Note 15). After initial recognition, the asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis and liabilities updated according to the discount rate with the result shown in financial result. Any changes in the estimated costs to be incurred are recorded prospectively.
34
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
½Engine return provisions: are estimated based on the minimum contractual conditions that the equipment must have when returned to the lessor, considering the historical costs incurred and the conditions of the equipment at the time of evaluation. These provisions are recorded in the income statement from the time that the minimum contract requirements are reached and the next maintenance is scheduled for a date later than the date set for the return of the engine. The Company estimated the engine return provision in accordance with the expenditure that is intended be incurred, and, when the effect of the money value over time is considerate relevant, the provision amount will be the present value of the expenses that are expected to settle the obligation. The agreement maturity will be based on the date that the return of aircraft leased is expected, i.e., or the lease term.
½Provisions for lawsuits: Provisions are registered for all the lawsuits that represent probable loss according to its individual assessment, considering the estimated financial expense. If the Company expects that some or all of the provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is registered as a separate asset. The expense related to any provision is presented in the statement of operations, net of any reimbursement.
l) Revenue recognition
The passenger revenue is recognized when air transportation services are actually provided to the passenger. Tickets sold but not yet used are recognized as advance ticket sales and correspond to deferred revenue from sold tickets to be transported in a future date, net of tickets that will expire in accordance with the Company’s expectations (breakage). Breakage consists of the statistical calculation, on a historical basis, of expired tickets not utilized, i.e., passengers to be transported that have a high probability of not flying. The Company periodically records adjusted deferred revenues based on tickets which have actually expired.
In the consolidated financial statements, the revenue due to exchange of miles from the program and the fligh tickets sales is only recognized when the flight transportation is provided.
Revenues from cargo shipment are recognized when transportation is provided. Other revenues include charter services, onboard sales services, tickets exchange rates, and other additional services, and are recognized when the service is provided.
m) Deferred revenue
The "Smiles Program" aims to retain its customers through the grant of mile credits to its participants. The obligation created by the issuance of miles is measured based on the price that the miles were sold to its airline partners and non-airline partners, classified by Smiles as the fair value of the transaction. The revenue recognition occurs when the miles are redeemed by the Smiles Program participants to exchange the rewards with its partners.
35
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
n) Share-based payments
½Stock options: the fair value of stock options granted to executives is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model and expense is recognized in income during the period that the right is acquired (vesting period), with based on estimates which granted shares will be acquired, with a corresponding increase in equity.
½Restricted shares: the transfer of restricted shares to its beneficiaries is held at the end of three years from the grant date, provided that the recipient has maintained its employment during that period. This transfer takes place through treasury shares, whose value per share is determined by the market price on the date of transfer to the beneficiary. Gains related to differences in the fair value of the share at the grant date and the value on the date of transfer of restricted shares are recorded in equity under the caption "Goodwill".
The impact of any reviewing on the amounts of the restricted shares or shares to be acquired in comparison with the original estimates, if any, is recognized in the profit or loss, such as the cumulative expense reflects the reviewed estimate, with a corresponding adjustment in equity.
o) Segment information
The Company holds two reportable segments, as described below:
½Flight transportation segment: the operations are derived from its subsidiary VRG and consist in to provide air transportation services and the major assets earning revenue are its aircraft. Other revenues primarily arise from cargo, excess baggage charges and cancellation fares, all directly attributable to flight transportation services.
½Smiles loyalty program: the operations in this segment are represented by mile sales transactions to airline and non-airline partners. Under this context are the program management, marketing and rights of redemption of prizes and creating and managing the database of individuals and corporations. The main cash-generating asset is its portfolio of program participants.
p) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the time that the transaction occurs. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are subsequently calculated based on the conversion using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date and differences resulting from the currency calculated based on conversion are recognized profit or loss under “exchange variation, net”.
q) Statement of value added (“DVA”)
The purpose of this statement is to disclose the wealth created by the Company and its distribution during a certain reporting period, and is presented by the Company, as required by the Brazilian Corporate Law, as an integral part of its individual financial statements, and as additional disclosure of the consolidated financial statements, since this statement is not expected nor required by IFRS. DVA was prepared based on information obtained in the accounting records of CPC 09 - "Statement of added value."
r) Main accounting estimates and assumptions adopted
The elaborating process of the Financial Statements often requires that the Management adopt assumptions, judgments and estimates that may affect the application of the policies and amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. The actual results may differ from the adopted estimates, since such use historical experience and some assumptions that are believed to be appropriate under the circumstances. The reviews of accounting estimates are recognized in the same period in which the assumptions are reviewed and the effects are recognized on a prospective basis.
The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of material adjustments on the accounted amounts of assets and liabilities are discussed below:
36
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
½Impairment of financial assets: the Company estimates any impairmant losses at every closing balance date, or when there are evidences that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Problems in repatriation or usage of financial assets in other countries are indicative for impairment tests.
½Impairment of non-financial assets: at the end of each year, the Company assesses whether there are signs of impairment for non-financial assets, specially fixed assets and intangible. The recoverable amounts are determined by calculating its value in use based on a period of five years, using cash flow assumptions by discounted the rate before taxes. Any second thoughts below in the carrying amount of the asset should be recognized as loss on impairment and not recognized in the income statement in which they occurred. For details, see Note 16.
½Income tax: The Company believes that the tax positions taken are reasonable. However, it recognizes that the authorities may question the positions taken which may result in additional liabilities for taxes and interest. The Company recognizes provisions that involve considerable judgment of the management. The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to account for changes in circumstances, such as lapsing of applicable statutes of limitations, conclusions of tax authorities, additional exposures based on identification of new issues or court decisions affecting a particular tax issue. Actual results can differ from estimates.
½Breakage: As part of the process of revenue recognition, the flight tickets issued that will not be used and the miles issued that will not be redeemed are estimated and recognized as revenue at the moment of the sale and issuance, respectively. These estimates, referred to as breakage, are reviewed annually and are based on historical data of expired flight tickets and expired miles.
½Allowance for doubtful accounts: the allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in the amount considered sufficient by the management in order to cover possible losses on accounts receivable arising from receivables, considering the risks involved. The Company periodically evaluates its receivables and, based on historical data, combined with risk analysis per client, registers the allowance for losses.
½Provisions for judicial processes: provisions are recorded for all lawsuits that represent probable losses, according to the loss probability, which includes the assessment of available evidence, including the legal consultants’ opinion, internal and external, the proceedings nature and past experiences. Additionally, the provisions are periodically reviewed and the management believes that the provisions recorded are sufficient, based on the probability of loss. However, significant changes in judicial decisions can have significant impacts on the Company’s financial statements.
½Aircraft return provision: the Company estimates the provision for aircraft returns considering the costs in accordance with returns conditions agreements as set out in the return conditions, with counterpart on property, plant and equipment.
½Engine return provision: are calculated based on the corresponding estimate of the agreement obligation of each engine return and recorded in the statement of operations only in the period between the last maintenance and the date of return of the components.
½Fair value of financial instruments: when the fair value of financial assets and liabilities presented in the balance sheet cannot be obtained in active markets is determined using valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow method. The data for these methods are based on market conditions, when possible; however, when this is not feasible, a certain level of judgment is required to determine the fair value. The judgment includes consideration of data used, for example, liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.
2.3. New standards, amendments and interpretations
a) Issued by the IASB, not effective until the date of these financial statements and have not been early adopted by the Company:
37
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
½IFRS 9 Financial instruments: On July, 2014, IASB issued the final version of “IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments”, which reflects all phases of the financial instruments project, and replaces the “IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and the others IFRS 9 previous versions. The standard introduces new requirements on classification and measurement, loss on impairment and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on January 01, 2018 or thereafter, and the early application is not allowed. Retrospective application is required, but it is not mandatory, however, the presentation of comparative information. Early adoption of previous versions of IFRS 9 (2009, 2010 and 2013) is allowed if the initial application date is earlier than February 01, 2015. The adoption of IFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets, not causing, however, any impact on the classification and measurement of the financial liabilities of the Company.
½IFRS 15 Revenue contract with customers: Establish a model of five steps that apply to income received from a customer contract, regardless of the type of revenue or industry transaction. Applies to all revenue contracts and provides a model for the recognition and measurement of gains or losses on the sale of certain non-financial assets that are not related to the regular activities of the entity (i.e. real estate sales, installations and equipment or intangibles). Extensive disclosures are also required by this standard. This Statement shall be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 01, 2017, with earlier application allowed.
½IFRS 16 Leases: In January 2016, the IASB issued the final version of "IFRS 16 - Leases", which establish the principles for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leasing operations. IFRS 16 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Internationally, early adoption is permitted for entities in which IFRS 15 - Contract Revenue from customer in the date of application of IFRS 16 or date above, but this permission is not set in Brazil. IFRS 16 requires that, for much of the lease, the lessor pass to record an asset related to the right to use assets identified and liabilities related to the lease. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard on its financial statements and due to the current proportion of leases classified as operating, considers that the changes resulting from the adoption of the standard will be relevant and the rise of potential assets and liabilities at the date of adoption.
New standards, amendments and interpretations were issued by IASB that could be aplied:
Annual improvements 2010-2012 cycle - Applicable for annual periods beginning on July 01, 2014 or thereafter:
½ Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 Explanation of acceptable methods of depreciation and amortization: The amendments are applicable prospectively for annual periods beginning on January 01, 2016 or thereafter.
½ Amendments to IAS 27 – Equity method in separate financial statements: The amendments are applicable prospectively for annual periods beginning on January 01, 2016 or thereafter.
Annual improvements 2010-2014 cycle - Applicable for annual periods beginning on July 01, 2016 or thereafter;
½ IFRS 7 Financial instruments - disclosure: (i) provides that a service contract that includes a fee may be ongoing involvement in a financial asset and (ii) the applicability of changes not IFRS 7 for condensed interim financial statements. This amendment must be applied retrospectively.
½ IAS 34 Preparation and disclosure of interim financial statements: This amendment must be applied retrospectively.
½ Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation initiative: The amendments are applicable prospectively for annual periods beginning on January 01, 2016 or thereafter, with earlier application allowed.
The Company intends to adopt those Standards when these become effective and disclose and recognize the impacts in the financial statements that may occur on application of those standards.
There are no other standards and interpretations issued but not yet adopted that, in Management's opinion, have a significant impact on net income or equity issued by the Company.

As of December 31, 2015, the tax credits from tax loss carry forwards and negative social contribution basis were valued based on the reasonably expected generation of future taxable income of the parent Company and its subsidiaries, subject to legal limitations. The forecast of future taxable income on tax losses and negative tax base of social contribution were prepared based on the business plan and approved by the Board of Directors on February 18, 2014.
The Company’s Management considers that the deferred assets recognized as of December 31, 2015 arising from temporary differences will be realized when the provisions are settled and the related future events are resolved.
The analysis of the deferred taxes credits realization was described by company as follow:
GLAI: the Company recognized tax credit amounted in R$60,683, of which R$59,698 is related to tax loss and negative basis of social contribution and R$985 is related to the temporary differences, with realization supported by the long term plan of the Company. However, for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company assessed the forecasts of the results and did not recognize the amount of R$ 52,731 related to credits on tax loss carryforwards and social contribution.
VRG: holds tax credits on tax loss carryforwards and social contribution in the amount of R$1,088,983. However, in view of recent events on the political scene, instability of the economic environment, constant fluctuations in the dollar and other variables that significantly affect projections of future results, as well as the loss of history in recent years the Company has limited record of credits on tax loss basis negative social contribution, resulting in a write-off of R$385,618. Additionally, the Company analyzed the realization of temporary differences assets and limited its record based on the expected realization of passive temporary differences. As a result, the Company not recognized the net amount of R$732,439 of deferred income tax and social contribution on temporary differences.
Exceptionally, the deferred tax credits recorded under “Other comprehensive results” that will affect taxable income only at the moment of its realization remain fully recorded against the shareholders' equity.
Smiles: for this subsidiary does not present tax losses and negative basis of social contribution. Thus, the deferred tax credit is composed only for temporary differences which, according to the taxable results history and the forecast, expectation of realization.
Webjet: the forecast did not present suficiente taxable profits to be realized over future periods, and as a result, a provision was recorded for unrealizable loss tax credits of R$296,020.

14. Losses per share
Although there are differences between common and preferred shares in terms of voting rights and priority in case of liquidation, the Company’s preferred shares are not entitled to receive any fixed dividends. The preferred stockholders are entitled to receive dividends per share 35 times of the dividends per share paid to common stockholders. Therefore, the Company understands that the economic capacity of the preferred shares is higher than the common shares.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to controlling shareholders by the weighted average number of all classes of shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted result per share is calculated by the weighted average number of outstanding shares, in order to assume the conversion of all potential dilutive shares. Diluted result per share is calculated based on considering the instruments that may have a potential dilutive effect in the future, such as share-based payment transactions, described in Note 12. However, due to the losses reported for the period ended on December 31, 2015, these instruments issued have anti-dilutive effect and, therefore, are not considered in the total number of outstanding shares.

(*) Referes to the goodwill transfer related to Netpoints S.A. transferred to Investments.
Goodwill and other intangible assets are subject to impairment test as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 using the discounted cash flow before taxes for each cash generating unit, giving the value in use.
For the purposes of impairment valuation, the assets are classified at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units - "UGC"). To determine the carrying amount of each UGC, the Company considers not only the recorded intangible, and all the necessary tangible assets, it is only through the use of this stock that the Company will generate economic benefit.
The Company performs the allocation of goodwill in two cash-generating units: VRG and Smiles, and the amounts recognized arising from operating rights at airports are fully allocated to cash-generating unit VRG (flight network), as shown below:

The results were compared to the carrying amount of each cash generating unit and as a result, the Company did not recognized losses for impairment of its CGU.
The assumptions used in the reduction tests the impairment of intangible assets are consistent with internal projections, for five years period and after five year we assume the extrapolation of perpetuity growth rate, and operating plans, both reviewed and approved by the Management. The discounted cash flow that determined the value in use of cash generating units was prepared in accordance with the Company's business plan approved on February 18, 2016.
The main assumptions used by the Company to determine the value in use of cash generating units are:
½ Capacity and fleet: consider the use, the capacity of the aircraft used in each section and the fleet size projection operation.
½ Demand: market efficiency is the key input for the projection of the Company's demand growth. Management believes that market efficiency is the ratio of market share (market share) and its participation in the offer (seat share). This indicator reflects how efficiently the company employs its share in the total market supply due to its demand capture by air transport.
½ Revenue per passenger: considers the average price charged by Gol and the effects of market variables (see variable used below).
Operating costs associated with the business: based on historical cost and updated by indicators such as inflation, related to the supply, demand and variation of the U.S. Dollar.
The Company also considered market variables such as GDP (source: Brazil’s federal reserve), U.S. Dollar (source: Brazil’s federal reserve), kerosene barrel (source: National Brazilian Petroleum Agency - ANP) and interest rates (source: Bloomberg).

Provisions are reviewed based on the progress of the proceedings and history of losses based on the best current estimate for labor and civil lawsuits.
There are other civil and labor lawsuits assessed by management and its legal counsel as possible risks, in the estimated amount as of December 31, 2015 of R$22,176 for civil claims and R$53,764 for labor claims (R$15,786 and R$2,341 as of December 31, 2014 respectively), for which no provisions are recognized.
On August 2015, the Superior Labor Court (“TST”) declared unconstitutional the monetary adjustments of the labor debts by Reference Rate (“TR”), which was substituded by IPCA-E (the National Index of Price to the Ample), which will be applicable to all litigations in progress as of June 30, 2009 and from the date on.
On October 14, 2015, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) granted an injuction suspending the effects of the decision previously communicated by the TST. The Company, along with its internal and external legal advisors, believes that, in the current scenario, the risk of obligation to update the labour claims by IPCA-E is remote.
The tax lawsuits below were evaluated by the Companys’ management and its legal consultants as being relevant and with probable risk as of December 31, 2015:
· GLAI is discussing the non-incidence of taxation of PIS and COFINS on revenues generated by the interest on capital in the amount of R$50,683, related to the years from 2006 to 2008, paid by its subsidiary GTA Transportes Aéreos S.A., succeeded by VRG on September 25, 2008. According to the opinion of the Company’s legal counsel and based on the jurisprudence occurred in recent events, the Company classified this case as possible loss, without a provision registered for the related amount. Additionally, the Company maintains a letter of credit with Bic Banco with a partial guarantee on the lawsuit value of R$20,062 as disclosed in Note 5.
61
Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
· Tax on Services (ISS), the amount of R$17,091 (R$16,470 as of December, 31 2014) arising from assessment notices issued by the Prefeitura do Município de São Paulo against the Company, in the period from January, 2007 to December, 2010 regarding a possible ISS taxation on partners agreements. The classification of the possible risk stems from the matters under discussion and are interpretative, and involves discussions of factual and evidential materials, and has no final positioning of the Superior Courts.
· Customs Penalty in the amount of R$18,283 (R$33,956 as of December, 31 2014) relating to assessment notices issued against the Company for alleged breach of customs rules regarding procedures for temporary import of aircraft. The classification of possible risk is a result of the absence of a final positioning of the Superior Courts.
· BSSF goodwill (BSSF Air Holdings), in the amount of R$45,292 (R$43,246 as of December, 31 2014) related to Infraction notices due to the deductibility of the goodwill allocated to future profitability. The classification of possible risk is a result of the absence of a final positioning of the Superior Courts.
· VRG’s goodwill in the amount of R$65,929 (R$17,894 as of December, 31 2014) resulted from summons of violation related to the deductibility of the goodwill classified as future payment. The classification of probable risk arises from the absence of a final opinion from the Superior Courts.
· ICMS in the amount of R$20,384 arising from assessment notice issued for alleged underreporting (or incomplete declaration) amounts related to air transport revenue to the tax authorities of the state of Ceará in the year 2014.
· Tax on Industrialized Products (IPI): supposedly levied on the importation of aircraft in the amount of R$101,448.
There are other lawsuits considered by the Company’s Management and its legal counsel as possible risk, in the estimated amount of R$58,151 (R$27,538 as of December, 31 2014) which added to the lawsuits mentioned above, amounting up to R$364,078 as of December 31, 2015 (R$176,854 as of December, 31 2014).

(a) The eliminations from operating entries are fully represented by transactions between VRG and Smiles.
(b) Include charges for depreciation and amortization totaling R$419,691 allocated for each operating segment as follows: R$416,856 in flight transportation segment and R$2,385 in Loyalty Program Segment (R$460,072 and R$3,224, respectively, on 2014)
In the individual Interim Financial Information of the subsidiary Smiles, which represents the segment Smiles Loyalty Program and in the information provided to the relevant decision makers, the revenue recognition occurs upon redemption of the miles by the participants. Under this perspective, this measurement is appropriate given that this is when the revenue recognition cycle is complete. At this point, Smiles has transferred to its suppliers the obligation to provide services or deliver products to its customers.
However, from a consolidated perspective, the revenue recognition cycle related to miles exchanged for flight tickets is only complete when the passengers are effectively transported. Therefore, for purposes of reconciliation with the consolidated assets, liabilities and results, as well as for purposes of equity method of accounting and for consolidation purposes, the Company performed, besides eliminations entries, consolidating adjustments to adjust the accounting practices related to Smiles’ revenues. In this case, under the perspective of the consolidated Interim Financial Information, the miles that were used to redeem airline tickets are only recognized as revenue when passengers are transported, in accordance with accounting practices and policies adopted by the Company.

The installment financed by long-term debt with aircraft guarantee through the U.S. Ex-Im Bank corresponds approximately to 85% of the aircraft total cost. Other establishments finance the acquisitions with equal or higher percentages, reaching up to 100%.
The Company performs payments related to aircraft acquisition through its own funds, short and long-term debt, cash provided by operating activities, short and medium-term line of credit and supplier financing.
The Company leases its entire aircraft fleet through a combination of operational and financial leases. As of December 31, 2015, the total fleet leased was comprised of 144 aircraft, of which 98 were under operating leases and 46 were recorded as financial leases. The Company holds 40 aircraft under financial leasing with purchase option. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company returned 6 aircraft under operating lease contracts.

28.2. Sale-leaseback transactions
The Company, during the years 2006 to 2009, recorded gains and losses from sale-leaseback transactions of 4 aircraft 737-800 Next Generation. These gains and losses were deferred, and are being amortized proportionally to the payments of the operational lease agreements over the contract term of 120 months.

Additionally, during the year ended on December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a net gain of R$32,191 resulting from 6 aircraft received during the year (R$81,224 related to 9 aircraft received during the year ended December 31, 2014) that were used as sale-leaseback transactions and resulted in operating leases. Given that the gains and losses from sale-leaseback transactions will not be offset against future lease payments and were negotiated at fair value, such gain was recognized directly in profit or loss.
29. Financial instruments and risks management
The Company and its subsidiaries have financial asset and financial liability transactions, which consist in part of derivative financial instruments. The financial derivative instruments are used to hedge against the inherent risks related to the Company operations. The Company and its subsidiaries consider as most relevant risks: fuel price, exchange rate and interest rate. These risks can be mitigated by using exchange swap derivatives, futures and options contracts based on oil, U.S. Dollar and interest markets. The contracts may be held by means of exclusive investment funds, as described in the Risk Management Policy of the Company.
The Management follows a documented guideline when managing its financial instruments, set out in its Risk Management Policy, which is periodically revised by the Risk Committee (CPR), and approved by the Board of Directors. The Committee sets the guidelines and limits, monitors controls, including the mathematical models adopted for a continuous monitoring of exposures and possible financial effects and also prevents the execution of speculative financial instruments transactions.
The Company does not hedge total exposure of risk, and is, therefore, subject to market fluctuations for a significant portion of its exposed assets and liabilities. Decisions on the portion to be protected consider the financial risks and the cost of such protection and are determined and reviewed at least quarterly in line with the strategies of CPR. The results from operations and the application of controls for risk management are part of the monitoring process by the CPR and have been satisfactory to the proposed objectives.
The description of the consolidated account balances and the categories of financial instruments included in the statements of financial position as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2015 (In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when indicated otherwise) |
i. Fuel price risk
The aircraft fuel price fluctuates both in the short and in the long term, in line with crude oil and oil byproduct price fluctuations. To mitigate the risk of fuel price, the Company holds derivative financial instruments referenced mainly to crude oil and, eventually, to their derivatives, also contracted, directly with the local supplier, are future fuel deliveries to aircraft at predetermined prices. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized a loss on fuel hedging transactions in the amount of R$29,964 (R$370,196 in 2014).
ii. Exchange rate risk
The exchange rate risk derives from the possibility of unfavorable fluctuation of foreign currencies to which the Company’s liabilities or cash flows are exposed. To mitigate the risk of exchange rate, the Company holds derivative financial instruments that are referenced to the U.S. Dollar. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized a gain on hedges of foreign exchange in the amount of R$102,969 (loss of R$24,722 in 2014).

b) Credit risk
The credit risk is inherent in the Company’s operating and financing activities, mainly represented by trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments. The trade receivable credit risk consists of amounts falling due from the largest credit card companies, with credit risk better than or equal to those of the Company and its subsidiaries, and receivables from travel agencies, installment sales, and government sales, with a small portion exposed to risks from individuals or other entities.
As defined in the Risk Management Policy, the Company is required to evaluate the counterparty risks in financial instruments and diversify the exposure. Financial instruments are contracted with counterparties rated at least as investment grade by S&P and Moody’s. The financial instruments are mostly contracted on commodities and futures exchanges (BM&FBOVESPA and NYMEX), which substantially mitigate the credit risk, derivative transactions contracted on the OTC market (OTC) have counterparts with a minimum rating of "investment grade". The Company’s Risk Management Policy establishes a maximum limit of 20% per counterparty for short-term investments.
c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk takes on two distinct forms: market and cash flow liquidity risk. The first is related to current market prices and varies in accordance with the types of assets and the markets where they are traded. Cash flow liquidity risk, however, is related to difficulties in meeting the contracted operating obligations at the agreed dates. That are uncertainty on the companies solvency and the business plan to mitigate those uncertainties is disclosed in Note 1.1. In order to mitigate the liquidity risk, the Company apply its liquidity asset and the Cash Flow Policy states that the duration of the debt must be higher than the investment portfolio duration.

e) Sensitivity analysis of derivative financial instruments
The sensitivity analysis of financial instruments was prepared according to CVM Instruction 475/08, in order to estimate the impact on the fair value of financial instruments operated by the Company, considering three scenarios considered in the risk variable: most likely scenario, the assessment of the Company; deterioration of 25% (possible adverse scenario) in the risk variable, deterioration 50% (remote adverse scenario).
The estimates presented, since they are based on simple statistics, do not necessarily reflect the amounts to be reported in the next financial statements. The use of different methodologies and/ or assumptions may have a material effect on the estimates presented.
The tables below show the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange exposure, derivatives position and the interest rates on December 31, 2015 to market risks considered relevant by management. In the tables, positive values are displayed as asset exposures (assets higher than liabilities) and negative values are exposed liabilities (liabilities higher than assets).

Measurement of the fair value of financial instruments
In order to comply with the disclosure requirements for financial instruments measured at fair value, the Company and its subsidiaries must classify its instruments in Levels 1 to 3, based on observable fair value levels:
· Level 1: Fair value measurements are calculated based on quoted prices (without adjustment) in active market or identical liabilities;
· Level 2: Fair value measurements are calculated based on other variables besides quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability directly (such as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
· Level 3: Fair value measurements are calculated based on valuation methods that include the asset or liability but that are not based on observable market variables (unobservable inputs).
The following table shows a summary of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments measured at fair value, including their related classifications of the valuation method, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014:
