The aforementioned pronouncements are applicable to the years ended as of December 2010 and to the 2009 financial statements reported for comparison purposes.

3. Summary of main accounting practices

Accounting estimates to measure and recognize certain assets and liabilities are used in the preparation of financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The determination of these estimates took into account experiences of past and current events, presuppositions related to future events and other objective and subjective factors. Significant items subject to estimates include: the selection of useful lives of fixed and intangible assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; allowance for inventory losses; allowance for investments losses; the recoverability analysis of fixed and intangible assets; deferred income and social contribution taxes; fees and terms used when determining the present value adjustment of certain assets and liabilities and the provision for contingencies; the fair value measurement of share-based compensation and of financial instruments; the reporting estimates for the sensitivity analysis chart of derivative financial instruments pursuant to CVM Ruling 475/08. The settlement of operations involving these estimates may result in amounts significantly different from those recorded in the quarterly information due to inaccuracies inherent to the process of their determination. The Company reviews its estimates and assumptions, at least, quarterly.

Significant accounting practices and consolidation criteria adopted by the Company are shown below:

a) Determination of income

Sales revenues have been stated at their gross amounts. i.e., they include taxes and discounts, stated as reducers of revenues. The result of operations is determined according to the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues from sale of products are recognized in income when their value can be measured reliably, all risks and benefits inherent to the product are transferred to the buyer, the Company no longer has the control or responsibility over the goods sold and probably the economic benefits will be generated to the benefit of the Company. Revenues are not recognized if their realization is considerably uncertain. Freights over sales are included in the cost of goods sold. Interest income and expenses are recognized by the effective interest rate method under financial revenues/expenses.

The recording of present value adjustment expense, incurring on installment sales, has as corresponding credit the item “trade accounts receivable” and its reversals are recorded in a separate item, called “reversal of present value adjustment from sale of goods”.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

b) Translation of foreign currency-denominated balances

(i) Functional and presentation currency of the quarterly information

The Company’s functional currency is the Brazilian Real, same currency of preparation and presentation of quarterly information of the parent company (individual) and consolidated. The quarterly information of each subsidiary included in the Company’s consolidation and those used as basis for investments valuation by the equity accounting method are prepared based on the functional currency of each entity.

(ii) Foreign currency-denominated transactions

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency (Real) using the exchange rate effective on respective balance sheet date. Gains and losses resulting from the restatement of these assets and liabilities verified between the exchange rate effective on the date of operation and closings of periods are recognized as financial revenues or expenses in income.

Pursuant to CPC 02, Sabara, a foreign subsidiary of Globex, since it is not typified as an independent entity, had its assets, liabilities and results incorporated into Globex’s quarterly information, as any other domestic branch, agency, office or facility.

c) Financial instruments

The financial instruments are only recognized as of the date on which the Company becomes party of the contractual provisions of financial instruments. When recognized, these are firstly recorded at their fair value accrued of transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue. Their subsequent measurement occurs every balance sheet date according to the rules established for each type of classification of financial assets and liabilities.

(i) Financial assets

Financial assets are measured by their fair value at every balance sheet date. Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange variation and variations deriving from the valuation at fair value are recognized in income when incurred under financial revenues or expenses.

These are classified among categories mentioned below, according to the purpose to which they were acquired or issued:

Investments held to maturity: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinate payments with scheduled maturities to which the Company has the intention and the capacity to hold them to maturity. After initial recognition, these are measured by amortized cost through effective interest rate method. This method uses a discount rate that when applied over estimated future receivables during the expectation of financial instrument effectiveness, results in a net book value. Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange variation, less impairment losses, where applicable, are recognized in income when incurred under financial revenues or expenses.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

c) Financial instruments (Continued)

(i) Financial assets (Continued)

Loans (granted) and receivables: non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinate payments but not quoted in an active market. After the initial recognition these are measured by amortized cost through effective interest rate method. Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange variation, less impairment losses, where applicable, are recognized in income when incurred under financial revenues or expenses.

Main financial assets recognized by the Company are: cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, marketable securities, unrealized gains in derivatives operations and trade accounts receivable.

(ii) Financial liabilities

These are classified among the categories mentioned below according to the nature of financial instruments contracted or issued:

Financial liabilities measured at fair value through income: these include financial liabilities generally traded before maturity, liabilities designated in the initial recognition at fair value through income and derivatives, except for those designated as hedge instruments. These are measured by their fair value at every balance sheet date. Interest rates, monetary restatement, exchange variation and variations deriving from fair value valuation, where applicable, are recognized in income when incurred.

Financial liabilities not measured by fair value: non-derivative financial liabilities which usually are not traded before maturity. After initial recognition, these are measured by amortized cost through effective interest rate method. Interest rates, monetary restatement and exchange variation, where applicable, are recognized in income when incurred.

Main financial liabilities recognized by the Company are: accounts payable to suppliers, unrealized losses in derivatives operations, loans, financing and debentures.

Market value: the market value of financial instruments actively traded on organized markets is determined based on the market quotes, on the balance sheet closing date, or based on valuation techniques defined by the Company and compatible with usual practices on the market. If there is no active market, then the market value is determined through valuation techniques.

These techniques include the use of recent market arm’s length transactions, benchmark to the market value of similar financial instruments, analysis of discounted cash flows or other valuation models.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

c) Financial instruments (Continued)

(ii) Financial liabilities (Continued)

Hedge operations: derivative financial instruments used to hedge risk exposures or to modify the characteristics of financial assets and liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments, highly probable transactions or net investments in operations abroad, and which: (i) are highly correlated concerning changes in their market value in relation to the market value of item that has been hedged, both at the beginning and over the life of agreement (effectiveness between 80% and 125%); (ii) have the operation documented, risk purpose of hedge, risk management process and methodology used in the effectiveness evaluation; and (iii) considered effective to reduce the risk associated with exposure to be hedged, are classified and recorded as hedge operations according to their nature.

f) Inventories

Inventories are basically stated at the average cost or market value, whichever is shorter, adjusted by provision for inventory bonuses for losses and breakage, which are periodically reviewed and evaluated as to their sufficiency. Warehousing and handling costs are appropriated according to inventory turnover and the portion not absorbed is stated at the inventories value.

g) Investments

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the equity method, and provision for capital deficiency is recorded, when applicable. Other investments are recorded at acquisition cost.

h) Property and equipment

These assets are shown at acquisition or construction cost, monetarily restated until December 31, 1995, deducted from the related accumulated depreciation, calculated on a straight-line basis at the rates mentioned in Note 11. The term of the agreement or assets useful life is utilized in leasehold improvements, whichever is shorter.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

i) Leasing

Financial leasing agreements are recognized in property and equipment and liabilities from loans and financing, by the lower amount between the present value of mandatory minimum installments of the agreement or the fair value of asset, whichever is shorter, accrued, where applicable of initial direct costs incurred on transaction. Implied interest rates on recognized liabilities of loans and financing are appropriated to income according to the duration of the agreement by the effective interest rate method.

Capitalized assets are depreciated by their useful life in the event of express intention of acquiring the asset at the end of the agreement, or, by the lower between the duration of the agreement and useful life of asset in cases where intention is not express. Operating leasing agreements are recognized as expense on a systematic basis which represents the period in which the benefit over leased asset is obtained, even if these payments do not occur on this basis.

j) Intangible assets

Goodwill generated in the acquisition of investments occurred until December 31, 2008, having future profitability as economic fundamental, was amortized on a straight-line basis for a term of 5 to 10 years until that date. As of January 1, 2009 it is not being amortized and should only be submitted to an annual test for impairment analysis.

Intangible assets with defined useful life are amortized according to their estimated economic useful life and when impairment signs are identified, these are submitted to impairment test. Intangible assets with indeterminate useful life are not amortized, but are submitted to annual test for impairment analysis.

k) Provision for recovery of assets

The Management yearly reviews the net book value of assets with a view to evaluating events or changes in economic, operating or technological circumstances that may indicate deterioration or impairment. When this evidence is identified and the net book value exceeds the recoverable value, a provision is recorded for deterioration by adjusting the net book value to the recoverable value. These losses are classified as other operating expenses.

l) Other assets and liabilities

A liability is recognized in the balance sheet when the Company has a legal liability or it is established as a result of a past event and it is probable that an economic resource will be required to settle this liability. Provisions are recorded based on the best estimates of risks involved.

An asset is recognized in the balance sheet when it is probable that its future economic benefits will be generated to the benefit of the Company and its cost or value can be safely measured. Assets and liabilities are classified as current when their realization or settlement is probable to occur over the next 12 months. Otherwise, these are stated as noncurrent.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

m) Taxation

Revenues from sales and services are subject to taxation by State Value-Added Tax (“ICMS”), Services Tax (“ISS”), Social Contribution Tax on Gross Revenue for Social Integration Program (“PIS”) and Social Contribution Tax on Gross Revenue for Social Security Financing (“COFINS”) at rates prevailing in each region and are presented as sales deductions in the statement of income.

The credits derived from non-cumulative PIS and COFINS are shown deducted from cost of goods sold in the statement of income. The debits derived from financial revenue and credits derived from financial expenses are shown deducted in these proper items of the statement of income.

The advances or amounts subject to offsetting are shown in the current and noncurrent assets, in accordance with the estimate for their realization.

Income tax and social contribution are calculated and are classified as current and deferred, as follows:

Current – Income tax and social contribution in Brazil, when taxable income is elected, are calculated based on 25% taxable income (15% plus 10% surcharge on income exceeding R$240) and 9%, respectively. Brazilian tax laws in force allows to carry forward tax losses referring to past years with deferred taxable income, without limitation period, however, with a restricted use limited to 30% of the taxable income of each year.

Deferred – Deferred income tax and social contribution include the effects of recognizing tax losses, negative basis of social contribution and temporary differences, which are mainly composed of provisions usually related to the recording of contingencies that are not deductible from taxable income and calculation basis of social contribution at the time of recording, but only subsequently, on the date of its financial realization. When income tax and social contribution are calculated, all provisions recorded are recognized as temporary differences.

Deferred income and social contribution tax assets were recorded pursuant to CVM Ruling 371 of June 27, 2002 and take into account the expectation of generating future taxable income, based on a technical feasibility study approved by the Board of Directors.

n) Share-based payment

Main executives and managers of the Company receive share-based payment as part of their compensation to be settled with shares. Costs of these transactions are firstly recognized in income during the period over which services were received against a capital reserve and measured by their fair value, when the compensation programs are granted.

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

o) Present value adjustment of assets and liabilities

Long-term monetary assets and liabilities are adjusted to their present value, and for short term, when the effect is considered relevant in relation to the quarterly information taken as a whole. The present value adjustment is calculated taking into account contractual cash flows and explicit interest rates, and in certain cases, implied interest rates of respective assets and liabilities.

Thus, embedded interest rates on revenues, expenses and costs associated with these assets and liabilities are discounted with a view to recognizing them in conformity with the accrual basis of accounting. Subsequently, these interest rates are reallocated under financial revenues and expenses to income by utilizing the effective interest rate method in relation to the contractual cash flows.

Implied interest rates are determined based on assumptions and considered as accounting estimates.

p) Provision for contingencies

As per CVM Deliberation 489/05, the Company adopts the concepts established in NPC 22 on Provisions, Liabilities, Gains and Losses on Contingencies when setting up provisions and disclosures on matters regarding litigation and contingencies. The balances of provisions are stated net of the respective judicial deposits, when applicable (Note 16).

Provision for contingencies is set up based on legal counsel opinions, in amounts considered sufficient to cover losses and risks considered probable.

q) Statements of cash flows and statements of added value

The statements of cash flows are prepared and are reported pursuant to CVM Deliberation 547 of August 13, 2008 which approved the technical pronouncement CPC 03 – Statements of Cash Flows, issued by the Brazilian Committee on Accounting Pronouncements (CPC).

r) Consolidated quarterly information (Continued)

Although the Company’s interest in Novasoc represents 10% of its quotas, Novasoc is included in the consolidated quarterly information as the Company effectively has control over a 99.98% beneficial interest in Novasoc, guaranteed by shareholders’ agreement who do not have effective veto or other participating or protective rights. Under the Bylaws of Novasoc, the appropriation of its net income does not need to be proportional to the quotas of interest held in the company.

The subsidiary Sendas Distribuidora was fully consolidated, in accordance with the shareholders’ agreement, which establishes the operating and administrative management by the Company.

The proportional investment related to the investor company’s interest in the income of the investee, the balances payable and receivable, revenues and expenses and the unrealized profit originated in transactions between the consolidated companies are eliminated in the consolidated quarterly information.

Pursuant to CVM Ruling 408 of August 18, 2004, the Company as of the first quarter of 2005, started to consolidate PAFIDC’s quarterly information, as it understood this is a special purpose entity, organized with exclusive purpose of conducting the securitization of receivables of the Company and its subsidiaries, and most of risks and benefits related to the fund profitability are linked to subordinated quotas, maintained by the Company.

Since prevailing decisions related to the operational management of FIC are Itaú’s responsibility, CVM, through official memorandum CVM/SNC/006/09 authorized FIC to be included in the consolidated quarterly information of Itaú. Thus, the Company valued its investment in Miravalles by the equity accounting method.

The subsidiary Globex holds a 50% interest in Banco Investcred and shares management, as set forth in the Shareholders’ Agreement dated October 26, 2001. Therefore, as provided for by CVM Ruling 247 of March 27, 1996, consolidated financial statements were prepared proportionally to this investment.

The quarterly information of Miravalles, Globex and Investcred is reviewed by other independent auditors.

In relation to Miravalles, in the nine-month period ended September 30,2009, total investment and equity pick-up of this investee accounted for 1.1% and 2.5%, respectively, in relation to total assets and net income reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements (1.0% and 2.9% at June 30,2009, respectively).

In relation to Globex, in the quarter ended September 30, 2009, total assets and losses of this investee, accounted for 12.3% and 23.8% respectively, in relation to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Income tax and Other – During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company obtained a formal answer from the Internal Revenue Service partially ratifying Finsocial credits released in the past. Concerning the non-ratified amount (R$68,275), the Company has written it off.

Taxes on sales – The São Paulo state government has been submitted new segments to the ICMS taxation system by tax replacement (early tax withholding and exempted from other chain links). Then, various segments were gradually incorporated by this system, mainly in 2009, such as medicine, beverage, toiletry, perfumery, pulp and paper, cleaning products, bikes, hardware, mattress, electric devices, home appliances and toys. As a result, currently approximately 80% of products sold by the Company are covered by this new system.

The tax replacement becomes a cost, which previously was credited by the Company in the acquisition of its products, thus reducing the generation of ICMS debts in its sales.

Taking into account that the Company does not have any prospect of utilizing these credits, the Management decided to write off the amount of R$152,207 in the parent company and R$255,146 in the consolidated (see Note 21) on a conservative basis.

8. Pão de Açúcar Receivables Securitization fund – PAFIDC

This fund is estimated to be effective until May 26, 2010.

The capital structure of the fund, at September 30, 2009, is composed of 10,256 senior quotas, held by third parties in the amount of R$1,005,742, which represent 89.61% of the fund’s equity (89.77% at June 30, 2009) and 2,864 subordinated quotas, held by the Company and subsidiaries in the amount of R$116,628, which represent 10.39% of the fund’s equity (10.23% at June 30, 2009).

Subordinated quotas are non-transferable and registered, and were issued in a single series. The Company will redeem the subordinated quotas only after the redemption of senior quotas or at the end of the fund’s term. Once the senior quotas have been yielded, the subordinated quotas will receive the balance of the fund’s net assets after absorbing any losses on receivables transferred and any losses attributed to the fund. Their redemption value is subject to credit, prepayment, and interest rate risks on the transferred financial assets.

The holders of senior quotas have no recourse against the other assets of the Company in the event customers’ default on the amounts due. As defined in the agreement between the Company and PAFIDC, the transfer of receivables is irrevocable, non-retroactive and the transfer is definitive.

CBD also contractually ensures that conversions will occur at the price of R$40.00 per share adjusted by CDI. Should quote of the last 15 trading sessions prior to the conversion be less than R$40.00 per share adjusted by CDI, CBD will pay this difference in cash to the holders of Class B shares.

The Company did not calculate and recorded the options fair value, since it is out of scope of CPC 14, as mentioned in Paragraph 2 (d) of said pronouncement.

As a result of the aforementioned criterion, in the first conversion of Class B Preferred Shares into Class A Preferred Shares, the Company paid approximately an additional R$5,669 million to the Class B preferred shareholders.

Upon the acquisition of subsidiaries and for consolidation purposes, the amounts originally recorded under investments – as goodwill based mainly on expected future profitability – were transferred to intangible assets and were amortized until December 31, 2008 over periods consistent with the earnings projections on which they were originally based, limited for 10 years.

Goodwill balances have been no longer amortized on an accounting basis since January 1, 2009.

The recoverability test of the Company’s intangible assets carried out at December 31, 2008 did not require the recognition of losses, since the estimated usage value exceeds its net book value on the valuation date.

The additional goodwill of R$931,408 during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 refers to R$758,847 related to Globex’s acquisition (Note 10.b.v) and R$172,201 generated in the acquisition of remaining 40% of Barcelona (Note 10.b.iv).

At September 30, 2009, the Company’s Management did not identify material changes in assumptions and data used in the assessment made in the previous quarter-end.

b) BNDES credit line

The line of credit agreements, denominated in reais, with the Brazilian National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES), are either subject to the indexation based on TJLP rate (long-term rate), plus annual interest rates, or are denominated based on a basket of foreign currencies to reflect the BNDES’ funding portfolio, plus annual interest rates. Financing is paid in monthly installments after a grace period, as mentioned below.

The Company cannot offer any assets as collateral for loans to other parties without the prior authorization of BNDES and is required to comply with certain debt covenants, calculated on the consolidated balance sheet, in accordance with Brazilian GAAP, including: (i) maintenance of a capitalization ratio (shareholders' equity/total assets) equal to or in excess of 0.40 and (ii) maintenance of a current ratio (current assets/current liabilities) equal to or in excess of 1.05. Management effectively controls and monitors covenants, which were fully performed. The parent company offered pledges as a joint and several liable party for settlement of the agreements.

In the event the TJLP exceeds 6% per annum, the surplus is added to the principal. In the nine-month period ended at September 30, 2009 R$157 were added to the principal (R$156 at June 30, 2009).

In subsidiary Globex, all the agreements and loans taken out with financial institutions (BNDES, Banco IBM and Unibanco) contain debt covenants providing that these institutions may declare the early maturity in the event of change in beneficiary’s control. All the financial institutions already officially declared that they will not exercise these covenants.

The Company adopts risk control policies and procedures, as outlined below:

a) Considerations on risk factors that may affect the business of the Company and itssubsidiaries

(i) Credit risk

(ii) Interest rate risk

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to market risks increase, due to the liabilities component of derivative operations (currency hedge) and CDI-related debts. The balance of marketable securities indexed to CDI, partially offsets this effect.

56


14. Financial instruments (Continued)

a) Considerations on risk factors that may affect the business of the Company and itssubsidiaries (Continued)

(iii) Exchange rate risk

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to exchange rate fluctuations, which increase the liabilities balances of foreign currency-denominated loans, therefore, the Company and its subsidiaries contract derivative financial operations so that to be hedged against exchange variation deriving from foreign currency-denominated loans. Swap agreements were the instruments used.

(iv) Derivative financial instruments

The Company designates part of swap agreements as fair value hedge of a portion of foreign currency-denominated debts (U.S. dollar and Japanese yen) to domestic interest rates (CDI). These agreements amounted to a benchmark value of R$702,247, at September 30, 2009 (R$741,703 at June 30, 2009). The contracting of these instruments is made within same terms of financing agreement and preferably with the same financial institution and within the limits approved by Management.

Other swap agreements are substantially related to debentures and BNDES loans, swapping percentage of variable domestic interest rates plus fixed interest rates with variable interest rates (CDI). These instruments were classified as “measured at fair value to income”.

According to the Company’s treasury policy, swaps with caps are not allowed, as well as “regret” clauses, double index, flexible options or any other types of options different from traditional swaps, for speculative purposes, rather than the hedge of debts.

The Company’s internal control environment was designed so as to ensure that transactions executed are in compliance with this treasury policy.

The Company calculates the effectiveness of this hedge at the beginning and on a continued basis (at least, quarterly) and hedges contracted at September 30, 2009 showed effectiveness in relation to the debts, purpose of this hedge. Provided that these derivative agreements are qualified as hedge accounting, pursuant to CPC 14, the hedged debt is also adjusted at fair value as per fair value hedge rules.

The effects of fair value hedge to the net income for the period stood at R$16,134 and R$(31,966) at September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively.

Other instruments marked at fair value showed effects of R$823 and R$(352) on net income at September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively.

14. Financial instruments (Continued)

a) Considerations on risk factors that may affect the business of the Company and itssubsidiaries (Continued)

(v) Fair values of derivative financial instruments

Fair values are calculated by projecting the future flows of operations, using the curves of BM&F Bovespa and carrying them at present value, using DI market rates to swaps published by BM&F Bovespa.

The market values of swaps – exchange coupon x CDI were obtained by using exchange rates prevailing on the market on the balance sheet date and rates projected by the market obtained from currency coupon curves. In order to determine the coupon of foreign currency indexed- positions the straight line convention of 360 consecutive days was adopted and to determine the coupon of CDI indexed-position the exponential convention of 252 business days was adopted.

b) Analysis of sensitivity of derivative financial instruments

CVM Ruling sets forth that publicly-held companies, supplementing the provision of item 59 of CPC 14 – Financial Instruments: Recognition, Measurement and Supporting Documentation should disclose a sensitivity analysis chart, for each type of market risk deemed as relevant by the Management, originated by financial instruments, to which the entity is exposed on each period closing date, including all derivative financial instruments.

Pursuant to the provision above, according to the Management’s evaluation, the most probable scenario is to realize on the maturity dates of each operation what the market has been signaling through market curves (currency and interest rates) of BM&F Bovespa. Therefore, in the probable scenario, there is no impact over the fair value of financial instruments mentioned above. For scenarios II and III, for exclusive effect of sensitivity analysis, a deterioration of 25% and 50%, respectively, was considered on risk variables until the maturity date of financial instruments.

For derivative instruments (destined to hedge its financial debt), variations in scenarios are accompanied by respective purposes of hedge, thus, evidencing that effects are practically null.

For these operations, the Company disclosed the balance of purpose (debt) and hedged derivative financial instrument in separate items of a sensitivity analysis chart, so that to inform about the net exposure of the Company, in each one of the three scenarios mentioned, as shown below:

(i) Fair value hedge (on maturity dates)

Operations    Risk    Scenario I    Scenario II    Scenario III

    net effect    -    -    -

Net effect            (30,828)   (62,277)
         

The Company’s net exposure corresponds to CDI-related debt and the total net effect represents the deterioration of scenario II at R$30,828 and of scenario III at R$62,277 in relation to scenario I, which the Company considers as the most probable scenario.

(ii) Measured at fair value through income

Operations    Risk    Scenario I    Scenario II    Scenario III 
         
 
Swap (long position in USD)   USD decrease    2,314    1,771    1,204 
Swap (short position in CDI)   CDI increase    (5,839)   (5,858)   (5,876)
         
    net effect    (3,525)   (4,087)   (4,672)
         
 
Swap (long position in CDI)   CDI increase    980,403    1,025,421    1,069,919 
Swap (short position in CDI)   CDI increase    (979,940)   (1,027,201)   (1,073,939)
         
    net effect    463    (1,780)   (4,020)
         
 
         
Total net effect        (3,062)   (5,867)   (8,692)
         

The total net effect of scenarios mentioned above is basically due to the Company’s exposure to CDI.

The Company has in its subsidiary Globex, at September 30, 2009, an amount of R$16,955 (US$9,540) related to balance at banks and R$1,483 (US$834) related to U.S. dollar-denominated foreign investment. As a result, the Company’s Management does not deem as relevant the exchange risk exposure.

Sensitivity assumptions

The Company used projected future interest and U.S. dollar rates, obtained with BM&F on the maturity date of each agreement, considering an increment of 25% in scenario II and an increment of 50% for scenario III.

In order to calculate the net exposure, all derivatives were considered at fair value on respective maturity dates, as well as its related debts (hedged elements) and other Company’s financial instruments.

Tax payment by installments includes the following amounts:

(i) INSS, CPMF– The Company discontinued certain lawsuits and filed application for the Special Tax Payment Installments Program (“PAES”), pursuant to Law 10,680/2003. These installment payments are subject to the Long-Term Interest Rate – TJLP and may be payable within 120 months.

(ii) Other – The Company also filed application to participate in the State and Municipal Tax Payment Installments Program (PPI). These taxes are adjusted by SELIC, and may be payable within 120 months.

The Company is party in several lawsuits and through the aforementioned law, opted for reducing its tax exposure, with benefits of reducing fine and interest rates and a financing plan of up to 180 months. The law also allows that remaining tax losses and judicial deposits related to the lawsuits are utilized to deduct from the balance to be paid by installments.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Management evaluated with its legal advisors all the administrative proceedings and lawsuits held by the Company with RFB – Brazil’s Internal Revenue Service, including tax and social security debts evaluated for risks of possible and/or probable losses and opted for the partial inclusion of lawsuits in the installment program.

Federal Taxes

Due to Supreme Federal Court (STF)’s recent decision on the constitutionality of COFINS increase (Law 9,718/99) in a similar lawsuit and the possibility of formalizing this case law against the taxpayers’ interests that uphold said discussion, the Company and its subsidiaries opted for adhering to the installment payment enacted by Law 11,941/09. In addition, after evaluation with legal advisors and in line with the rules of this new installment payment, they adhered to other theses upheld concerning the credit over financial expenses and the taxation over other revenues by the non-cumulativeness system. The consolidated amount, net of fine and interest remission is R$987,040.

Social Security

The Company filed a declaratory action of absence of legal relationship, in what concerns the contribution to SEBRAE, as enacted by Law 8,029/90, in order to obtain the acknowledgement of restated credit for offsetting with balances payable to SESC (Social Service for Trade) and SENAC (National Service for Commercial Training), excluding the 30% limit, as well as over the constitutionality of the FUNRURAL (Rural Workers’ Assistance Fund) for companies located in urban areas. The consolidated amount, net of fine and interest remission is R$83,144.

Other lawsuits with possible risks included in the installment payment

• Tax claims – The Company received deficiency notices referring to the controversy over the deductibility of certain expenses and provisions, extemporaneous credits not purpose of taxation when calculating income tax and social contribution and administrative proceedings related to requests for PIS and COFINS credit offset. Discrepancies are added to this point in relation to the calculation bases of these contributions and those verified by tax authorities. The consolidated amount involved in these lawsuits is R$248,924.

• Social security – The Company had deficiency notices related to social security debts offset deriving from legal process credits. The consolidated amount involved is R$ 137,965.

The results deriving from additions of provisions, net of gains from fine and interest remission, accounted for a net expense of R$ 277,882 in the Parent Company and R$340,226 in the Consolidated (see Note 21).

a) Taxes

Tax-related contingencies are indexed to the Central Bank Overnight Rate (“SELIC”), 11.84% at September 30, 2009 (12.32% at June 30, 2009), and are subject, when applicable, to fines.

COFINS and PIS

The Company obtained a final and unappealable decision on the lawsuit arguing the constitutionality of increasing COFINS and PIS calculation basis (Law 9,718/99). Due to this fact and other decisions rendered by the Federal Supreme Court – STF concerning this issue, the Company reversed the provision for contingencies in the amount of R$107,532. The Company had no judicial deposits related to this lawsuit.

As the non-cumulativeness system for the purposes of calculating PIS started (Laws 10,637/02) and COFINS (Law 10,833/03), the Company and its subsidiaries started to argue the appropriation of credits, as well as the possibility of excluding the amount from ICMS in its calculation bases with the judiciary branch. Finally, the Company filed a lawsuit discussing the exclusion of default charges from the calculation of debt related to COFINS rate.

The contingency amount of PIS and COFINS at September 30, 2009 is R$ 187,946 (R$186,984 at June 30, 2009).

b) Share rights

The class A preferred shares (“PNA”) are non-voting and have preference with respect to the distribution of capital in the event of liquidation. Each shareholder has the right pursuant to the Company's Bylaws to receive a proportional amount, based on their respective holdings to total common shares outstanding, of a total dividend of at least 25% of annual net income determined on the basis of financial statements prepared in accordance with Brazilian GAAP, to the extent profits are distributable, and after transfers to reserves as required by Brazilian Corporation Law, in a proportional amount of any additional dividends declared. The Company’s Bylaws set forth that, to the extent funds are available, PNA shares are entitled to a minimum dividend in the amount of R$0.08 per share. Beginning in 2003, PNA shares are entitled to receive a dividend 10% greater than that paid to common shares or, if determined by the shareholders, in excess of the mandatory distribution.

Management is required by the Brazilian Corporation Law to propose dividends at year-end, at least, until the amount of mandatory dividend, which may include the interest on shareholders’ equity, net of taxes.

Class B (“PNB”) preferred shares will entitle the following rights to its holders: (a) a fixed dividend of R$0.01 per share; and (b) priority in reimbursement should the Company be liquidated. PNB shares shall not have voting right. PNB shares will be converted, within terms established hereunder into PNA shares, at the 1:1 ratio. PNB shares will be converted into PNA shares according to the following schedule: (a) 32% of PNB shares were converted at September 28, 2009, corresponding to a 5-day period as of the ratification of capital stock increase approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting held at September 21, 2009 (“AGE 9/21/09”); (b) 28% of total PNB shares will be converted into PNA shares at January 7, 2010, which corresponds to the 6-month term as of the business day immediately subsequent to 9/21/09 AGE; (iii) 20% of total PNB shares will be converted into PNA shares at July 7, 2010, which corresponds to the 12-month term as of the business day immediately subsequent to 9/21/09 AGE; and (iv) 20% of total PNB shares will be converted into PNA shares at January 7, 2011, which corresponds to the 18-month term as of the business day immediately after 9/21/09 AGE.

c) Capital reserve – Special goodwill reserve

At the Annual and Extraordinary General Meeting held at April 30, 2009, the shareholders approved to increase the Company’s capital stock by private subscription, by partially capitalizing the Company’s goodwill special reserve, in the amount of R$88,780.

Out of total increase, R$17,756 were capitalized without issuing new shares, therefore to the benefit of all Company’s shareholders and R$71,024 were capitalized to the benefit of the Company’s controlling shareholder, i.e., Wilkes Participações S.A., pursuant to Article 7 of CVM Ruling 319/99, by issuing 2,197,528 Company’s new class A preferred shares.

c) Capital reserve – Special goodwill reserve (Continued)

The share issue price was R$32.32 per Class A preferred share and it was defined according to the criterion provided for in Article 170, paragraph 1, III of Law 6,404/76, based on the weighted average of fifteen (15) trading sessions prior to the publication of Call Notice for said General Meeting. The shares issued were paid up by partially capitalizing the amounts existing in the goodwill special reserve recorded in the Company, on behalf of the Company’s controlling shareholder, Wilkes Participações S.A., as provided for in Article 7 of CVM Ruling 319/99. The Company’s shareholders were entitled to preemptive right in the subscription of shares issued in the capital increase, taking into account that shareholders who exercised such right, paid the issue price of shares directly subscribed to the Company’s parent company to Wilkes Participações S.A., in domestic currency, as authorized by Article 171, paragraph 2 of Law 6,404/76 and by Article 7, paragraph 1 of CVM Ruling 319/99”.

d) Recognized granted options

With the enactment of Law 11,638/07 the account “granted options” was created to recognize payments made to managers as compensation pursuant to CPC 10.

e) Revenue reserve

(i) Legal reserve: is formed based on appropriations from retained earnings of 5% of annual net income, before any appropriations, and limited to 20% of the capital.

(ii) Expansion reserve: was approved by the shareholders to reserve funds to finance additional capital investments and working and current capital through the appropriation of up to 100% of the net income remaining after the legal appropriations and supported by capital budget, approved at meeting.

f) Preferred stock option plan

(i) Stock option original plan

The Company offers a stock option plan for the purchase of preferred shares to the Management. The exercise of options guarantees the beneficiaries the same rights granted to the Company's other shareholders. The management of this plan was attributed to an internal committee designated by the Board of Directors.

The granting price for each lot of shares is, at least, 60% of the weighted average price of the preferred shares traded in the week the option is granted.

The number of lot of shares may vary for each beneficiary or series. The vesting right to exercise the option may occur as follows and according to the following terms (i) 50% in the last month of third year subsequent to the granting date (1st tranche) and ii) until 50% in the last month of fifth year subsequent to the granting date (2nd tranche), and the remaining portion of the second tranche subject to restraint on alienation until the beneficiary’s retirement, as per formula defined in the regulation.

18. Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

f) Preferred stock option plan (Continued)

(i) Stock option original plan (Continued)

Shares subject to restraint on alienation (Q), upon the exercise of the options, are calculated by using the following formula outlined in the stock option plan:

where:

Q = Amount of shares to be encumbered by restraint on alienation.

Q1 = 50% of the Company total shares on the granting date.

Pm = Company share market price on the exercise date.

Pe = Share original exercise price, determined on the granting date, observing the terms of the Plan.

The option price from the date of concession to the date of its exercise is updated by reference to the General Market Price Index - IGP-M variation, less dividends attributed for the period.

(ii) New preferred stock option plan

The Extraordinary General Meeting, held at December 20, 2006, approved the amendment to the Company’s Stock Option Plan, approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting held at April 28, 1997.

As from 2007, the granting of preferred stock option plan to the Management and employees will take place as follows:

Shares will be classified into two types: Silver and Gold, and the quantity of Gold-type shares may be decreased and/or increased (reducer or accelerator), at discretion of the Plan Management Committee, in the course of 35 months following the granting date.

The price for each Silver-type share will correspond to the average of closing price of negotiations of the Company’s preferred shares occurred over the last 20 trading sessions of BOVESPA, prior to the date on which the Committee resolves on the granting of option, with discount of 20%. The price per each Gold-type share will correspond to R$0.01 and the granting of these options are additional to the Silver options, and the granting or the exercise of Gold options is not possible separately. In both cases, the prices will not be restated.

The acquisition of rights to the options exercise will occur as follows in the following term: as of the 36th month to 48th month as of the start date defined as the date of the adhesion agreement of respective series and: a) 100% of granting of Silver-type shares; b) the quantity of Gold-type options to be determined by the Committee, after the compliance with granting conditions.

g) Prepaid dividends

At August 3, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the Company’s adoption of a new policy for distribution of quarterly dividends, subject to the approval of the General Meeting, pursuant to paragraph 3 of Article 35 of the Company’s Bylaws. The amount and dates of payment of quarterly advances will be proposed annually by the Company. The quarterly payments will be made debiting the retained earnings account. This present policy does not change the mandatory minimum dividend to be paid to shareholders pursuant to the law and the Company’s Bylaws. The quarterly payments may be suspended by resolution of the Board of Directors, according to the Company’s economic-financial condition at that time.

For 2009, the Company will advance to its shareholders the amount of R$15,463 on a quarterly basis, calculated based on the total amount of dividends distributed by the Company in 2008, in the amount of R$61,851.

[Comparable-basis comments – excluding Globex]

In the third quarter, gross profit totaled R$ 1,287.6 million, 8.2% up year-on-year, accompanied by a gross margin of 25.4%, down by 160 bps, impacted by the following factors:

(i) increased impact of the change in the way ICMS (state VAT) is collected on certain products as of the second quarter of 2008, which reduced the gross margin by around 80 bps over 3Q08;

(ii) Assai’s share of the Group’s total sales (excluding Ponto Frio) increased by 290 bps over 9M08. Since the Assai stores operate with lower margins than the Group as a whole, this upturn resulted in a 50 bps reduction in the Group’s gross margin; and

(iii) the strengthening of promotional activities in the third quarter and the higher share of electronics/household appliance sales, whose margins are lower than those of food products, although they contribute to push up the average ticket. These factors reduced the gross margin by a further 30 bps over 3Q08.

In the first nine months, gross profit amounted to R$ 3,731.2 million, 9.5% more than the same period last year, while the gross margin narrowed by 110 bps to 25.3%, of which: (i) 70 bps from the increased impact of the change in the way ICMS is levied; (ii) 30 bps from the increased share of Assai’s sales; and (iii) 10 bps from promotional activities and the increased share of non-food products in total sales.

[Consolidated comments – including Globex]

In the third quarter, gross profit totaled R$ 1,525.2 million, with a gross margin of 24.8% .

In the first nine months, gross profit stood at R$ 3,968.9 million, accompanied by a gross margin of 25.1% .

It is worth noticing that the Company has been adopting a strategy of increasing the share of new businesses such as Assai (wholesale/retail), gas stations and electronics/household appliance stores, which has helped reducing the gross margin in recent quarters. On the other hand, this strategy has generated cash margin gains, in line with the Group’s established goals.

In the third quarter, total operating expenses (including selling and general and administrative expenses) represented 18.4% of net sales, identical to the 2Q09 ratio and lower than the 18.9% recorded in 3Q08, reflecting that the Company’s expenses remain under control. In absolute terms, they totaled R$ 931.2 million, 11.5% up year-on-year.

In the first nine months, total operating expenses came to R$ 2,717.5 million, 9.5% up on 9M08, but below the period sales growth of 11.1% . As a percentage of net sales, they came to 18.5%, 80 bps down on the same period last year.

It is worth remembering that the 1Q08 operating results were affected by restructuring expenses totaling R$ 23.0 million. Excluding this effect, 9M09 operating expenses would have increased by 10.5% in relation to the 9M08 pro-forma result.

The Group’s capital structure remains solid, with a reduction in net debt and increased cash flow, resulting in a net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.41x (within the annual guidance of below 1xEBITDA), fortified by the ongoing drive to optimize expenses and investments and maintain control over working capital.

The Company’s total cash position at the close of 3Q09 still contained the amount of R$ 451.8 million following the Company’s private capital increase, which was paid to the shareholders of Globex Utilidades S.A. on October 2, 2009.

In the first nine months, equity income totaled R$ 9.3 million, more than triple the 9M08 figure, once again exceeding the Company’s expectations and reflecting the initiatives implemented throughout 2008, which generated important portfolio gains, kept default under control thanks to a rigorous credit-granting policy and led to a differentiated positioning in regard to the competition.

In addition, at the end of August, Grupo Pão de Açúcar and Banco Itaú-Unibanco concluded the renegotiation of the association agreement involving FIC (Financeira Itaú CBD), which resulted in the payment of R$ 600 million by Banco Itaú-Unibanco and a consequent increase in the Company’s cash position.

However, the positive impact of this transaction was offset by the period reappraisal and write-down of assets and contingencies, resulting in a positive effect on adjusted net income of R$ 52.2 million.

REFIS 11,941/2009:

Given the benefits generated by Law 11,941/09, which altered the legislation regarding the payment of federal tax debts in installments, during the the quarter ended September 30, 2009, Management, together with its legal advisors, evaluated all the administrative proceedings and lawsuits held by the Company with RFB – Brazil’s Internal Revenue Service, including tax and social security debts evaluated for risks of possible and/or probable losses and opted for the partial inclusion of lawsuits in the installment program. Due to the Supreme Federal Court (STF)’s recent decision on the constitutionality of the COFINS increase (Law 9,718/99) in a similar lawsuit and the possibility of formalizing this case law against the taxpayers’ interests that uphold said discussion, the Company and its subsidiaries opted to adhere to the installment payment enacted by Law 11,941/09.

The net variation in tax installment payments and provisions for contingencies resulted in a total reduction of R$ 76 million.

Dividends 

On November 11, the Board of Directors approved the payment of R$ 15.5 million as advanced dividends relative to the third quarter of 2009, pursuant to the dividend policy approved on August 3, 2009, at R$ 0.060126452 per common share and R$ 0.066139097 per preferred class A share. Payment will be effected on November 30, 2009.

Shareholders registered as such on the base date of November 18, 2009, will be entitled to receive the payment. As of November 19, 2009, shares will be traded ex-dividends until the payment date.

It is worth remembering that the final installment (4Q09) will include the difference between the amount prepaid throughout the year and the minimum mandatory dividends based on the Company’s 2009 performance. This payment will take place after the Company’s accounts and the allocation of 2009 net income have been approved by the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

Globex Utilidades S.A.
Banco Investcred posts 3Q09 net income of R$ 7.0 million 

On June 8, 2009, Grupo Pão de Açúcar informed its shareholders and the market in general that it was beginning the process of acquiring the Ponto Frio chain (Globex Utilidades S.A.), transforming the Group into the Brazilian retail sector leader, with more than 1,000 stores and almost 80,000 employees and reaffirming its commitment to growing in the non-food (electronics/household appliance) segment. After the acquisition, the Company’s market share of this segment more than doubled, rising from 10% to 26%.

The third quarter of 2009 was marked by the transfer of control of Globex S.A. to Grupo Pão de Açúcar. Consequently, Globex’s 3Q09 operating and financial results, which also include 50% of Banco Investcred’s results, were consolidated into Grupo Pão de Açúcar’s results.

Working groups comprising Grupo Pão de Açúcar and Ponto Frio employees were set up to map existing synergy opportunities, aided by Galeazzi Associados. As a result, several decisions were taken with the aim of re-establishing profitable sales growth, with a focus on the client. The first results of this process have already become apparent, especially as of September, which recorded substantial sales growth.

97


In the third quarter, Ponto Frio accounted for 18.5% of the Group’s total sales. Gross sales totaled R$ 1,278.9 million, 9.1% more than in 3Q08 (+6.8% in same-store terms), while net sales climbed by 15.8% to R$ 1,076,8 million.

This significant upturn was the fruit of several measures taken by Grupo Pão de Açúcar to increase sales, including: (i) extending non-interest-bearing payment terms; (ii) aggressive media and promotional campaigns; (iii) enabling the use of GPA cards in Ponto Frio stores; and (iv) allowing payments in up to 15 installments for purchases with the Ponto Frio Flex Card.

Gross profit totaled R$ 237.7 million, accompanied by a gross margin of 22.2%, mainly impacted by the effect of the change in the way ICMS tax was levied in São Paulo state.

Total operating expenses represented 22.7% of net sales and EBITDA was a negative R$ 5.2 million, with a negative margin of 0.5%, a substantial improvement over the negative 32.2% recorded in 2Q09.

Banco Investcred Unibanco posted net income of R$ 7.0 million in the quarter, making a positive contribution to the 3Q09 result of Globex Utilidades S.A., which was a net loss of R$ 40.7 million.
