MANAGEMENT REPORT 2013

Dear Shareholders,

The Management of ULTRAPAR PARTICIPAÇÕES S.A. (Ultrapar) hereby presents its Management Report and Financial Statements for the fiscal year 2013. This information is accompanied by an independent auditor’s report with an unqualified opinion (clean opinion), which was discussed and reviewed by the Management.
 
 
COMPANY PROFILE

In 2013, Ultrapar continued its trajectory marked by constant investments in its businesses with growing and resilient demand: fuel distribution through Ipiranga and Ultragaz, specialty chemicals through Oxiteno, and liquid bulk storage through Ultracargo. Having completed 76 years of existence, the company’s history was built with an entrepreneurial spirit, differentiated products and services to its customers, consistent planning and execution of its strategy, with growth and development opportunities for its employees.

Ultrapar’s businesses are present throughout the whole Brazilian territory, with a widespread reach. Ultrapar also operates outside Brazil, through Oxiteno, with industrial plants in the United States, Mexico, Uruguay and Venezuela, and commercial offices in Argentina, Belgium, China and Colombia. By the end of 2013, Ultrapar had 9 thousand employees.

Since 1999, Ultrapar’s shares have been listed at the BM&FBOVESPA (São Paulo Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange), having entered in 2011 the Novo Mercado listing segment, and at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) with Level III ADRs. In 2013, Ultrapar’s shares appreciated 21%.


ECONOMIC AND OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

In 2013, as in the recent past, the macroeconomic environment remained difficult. In order to curb the rising inflation rates observed throughout the year, the Brazilian government raised the economy’s base interest rate, from 7.25% at the end 2012 to 10.0% at the end of 2013. The projected GDP for 2013 points to a 2.2% growth. This performance of the Brazilian economy and the economic instability in the international market contributed to the weakening of the Real against the dollar, with an average exchange rate of R$ 2.16/US$ in 2013 compared to R$ 1.95/US$ in 2012. In 2013, 3.6 million light vehicles were licensed, practically stable compared to the previous year. As a result, the fleet is estimated to have increased by 7% in 2013, keeping the progression trend of the last years.

ULTRAPAR IN 2013

Ultrapar reported in 2013 another year of achievements and earnings growth.

An organized, transparent succession process, combined with the company’s solid management system, allowed the succession of the Chief Executive Officer in 2013, continuing the planning and implementation of our growth and value creation strategy, focused on the endurance of the company by means of organic investments, acquisitions, differentiation, and operational excellence.

Looking towards the good prospects of the retail pharmacy sector, the pursue for greater convenience for Ipiranga and Ultragaz’s customers and our capacity to contribute to the business, in September 2013 we entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma, one of Brazil’s ten largest drugstore chains. We found in Extrafarma the elements that we seek in our businesses: scope for differentiation, a market that is resilient and, at the same time, leveraged on the Brazilian economy, sector in early stage of consolidation and formalization; therefore, with room for Ultrapar to place itself among the leaders. Culture was another element of harmony, as Extrafarma’s corporate governance had been designed to align interests and professionalize management. Mr. Paulo Lazera, Extrafarma’s main executive, will remain in charge of the retail pharmacy business as its Chief Executive Officer and will become a member of Ultrapar’s executive board. We will accelerate Extrafarma’s expansion plan, ensuring increased investment capacity, access for drugstore openings in Ipiranga's service stations and Ultragaz's resellers, and the strengthening of Extrafarma's experienced management team by implementing our mechanisms of corporate governance, incentives, and alignment of interests.

In 2013, we continued the strategy of expanding Ipiranga’s distribution network, focusing on the Midwest, Northeast and North regions of Brazil. The continued growth of the Brazilian light vehicle fleet and the investments in the expansion of its service station network and logistics facilities made by Ipiranga enabled the increase in sales. To this set of positive structural factors are added the results of the differentiation strategy, based on convenience and on increasing the offer of services at Ipiranga service stations. As part of this strategy, ConectCar started its operations in April, aiming at providing electronic payment for tolls, parking and fuel, having Ipiranga service stations as the main contact channel with customers.

A pioneer in the Brazilian chemical industry, Oxiteno completed 40 years in 2013, with a history of significant expansion of the production capacity, innovation, and product and process technology. The recent investments made in expanding its plants in Brazil and in the acquisition of new plants abroad contributed for increased sales volume and a more favorable sales mix, with a focus on specialty chemicals.

With a wide geographical presence, Ultracargo managed to understand the needs of its clients in the port infrastructure sector, being the only company specialized in liquid bulk storage that is located in six Brazilian ports. In 2013, we focused on consolidating our new operation at the Itaqui port, which began after the acquisition made in 2012, and we concluded the expansion of the terminal in Aratu.

At Ultragaz, we also obtained good results in 2013, as a consequence of a strategy based on our strong brand, on the excellence of our resellers and of our bulk LPG distribution services, and on the development of new applications for LPG. The permanent process of seeking for productivity gains also positively affected the results.

As a result of the corporate governance practices and the results obtained, the company received important recognitions in 2013. We believe the reason for those recognitions is a culture of entrepreneurship with planned, detailed implementation, strict governance, and continuous development of professionals that are able to endure our way of doing and conducting business.

Corporate governance, strategy and value creation

Ultrapar has a long track record of pioneering in the development of its governance. Ultrapar’s governance structure is based on long-term alignment between shareholders and executives, in a process that started in the 1980’s by Pery Igel, then manager and main shareholder of Ultrapar.

The governance model built over the years by Ultrapar became the key element for the growth and endurance of the company and its businesses. The company’s corporate governance structure was designed to create an increasingly solid, profitable and long-lasting company, with provisions inspired by international standards with no precedent in Brazil and that exceed the requirements of BM&FBOVESPA’s highest corporate governance level.

The recent most significant step was taken in 2011, when Ultrapar introduced its new corporate governance structure and joined BM&FBOVESPA’s Novo Mercado. With this initiative, the company further deepened the process of professionalization and increased its investment capacity in order to continue pursuing its growth strategy.

As of 2013, Thilo Mannhardt, then member of the Board of Directors, became the company’s CEO, succeeding Pedro Wongtschowski, who had held the position since 2006 and became a member of the Board of Directors of Ultrapar. The company's solid and strengthened management system enabled a planned and organized transition process, a renewal without disruption.

One of the benefits of the increased investment capacity resulting from Ultrapar’s entry into BM&FBOVESPA’s Novo Mercado materialized in 2013, with the association with Extrafarma. Ultrapar’s new governance structure enabled it to carry out a transaction in which Extrafarma’s shareholders would become Ultrapar's shareholders, a key factor for the association to happen.


Social and environmental philosophy, innovation and operational excellence

One of the main pillars of Ultrapar’s trajectory is a vision of sustainability that pervades actions and attitudes in areas that include from relationship with stakeholders to the responsible manner of conducting business. In this context, innovation is one of the main driving forces of the product and service differentiation strategy adopted by Ultrapar in its businesses, and it presents a key role in the company’s history. The relationship with the communities that surround

Ultrapar’s operations is also one of the key drivers of its vision of sustainability. The practices adopted by the company in this front result in greater inclusion and social development, in addition to bring Ultrapar even closer to its consumers.

Ipiranga’s Posto Ecoeficiente project (Eco-Efficient service station) is one of the differentiation initiatives that reflect Ultrapar’s innovation philosophy. The Posto Ecoeficiente project involves solutions in the construction and operation of service stations that result in better use of resources, such as water and electricity, and reduction of wastage and residues. The Postos Ecoeficientes reached in 2013 the mark of 488 units spread over the Brazilian territory, in addition to 200 units under construction. Ipiranga conducts, since 2008, the Saúde na Estrada program (Health on the Road), which aims at bringing health information to truck drivers, important customers of the service stations Ipiranga Rodo Rede, located in federal and state highways in Brazil, contributing to improve the quality of life of these professionals. The initiative consists of performing basic medical examinations, vaccinations and information campaigns.

Oxiteno’s operation is strongly supported by innovation, which is the basis of a growing positioning in specialty chemicals in the domestic and international markets, thus ensuring greater profitability to the business, lower volatility and a closer relationship with customers. Of its staff, 7% is linked to the development of new products, processes and technologies. In 2013, 22 entirely new products were developed and launched in the market, and revenues from new products launched in the last five years accounted for 9% of its total revenues.

In 2013, Ultracargo held the Semana Bem+Sustentável (Sustainable Week), focused on disseminating knowledge related to safety, health, environment, and quality. The event featured lectures aiming at encouraging change of behavior of employees and raising their awareness, considering matters related not only to the workplace, but also to relationships with families and communities. Over 800 employees took part in the lectures.

Ultragaz is achieving important results in a logistics program to reduce the fuel consumption of its fleet – reducing accordingly emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere. The program minimizes gas emissions in the process of refueling corporate clients, in addition to reducing costs. Through Ultragaz, Ultrapar develops, with the support of the Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social - BNDES (Brazilian Development Bank), social and environmental projects in the surroundings of the communities where it operates. Among the initiatives, the Educational Campaigns, in partnership with the Federal Government and the Ministry of Health, are designed to provide preventive information by means of qualifying LPG dealers and have directly impacted nearly 25 million people in 2013.

Interacting with the community of the Bela Vista neighborhood, in São Paulo, where Ultrapar’s headquarters are located, the company opened in 2013 the 12th class of the Ultra Formare, a vocational training and free course for underprivileged young students from public schools in the region. After a 33-week course, young students are able to act as administrative and commercial assistants. This initiative helps social inclusion to these youngsters, creates specialized labor, and disseminates Ultrapar's culture through its employees that act as volunteer teachers.

People

One of Ultrapar’s main foundations is the development of human capital. To this purpose, it relies on a people strategy that values meritocracy and features a variable compensation system linked to value creation, as well as an effective system for attraction, qualification and retention.

Attracting talents to be developed and prepared, that support the company’s growth, is one of Ultrapar’s major concerns. Annually, the company offers opportunities for young talents through internship and trainee programs. Every year about 320 young professionals are hired, who gain a broad overview of Ultrapar’s businesses through job rotation and several training sessions.

Clients, resellers and suppliers

At Ultrapar, passion and respect for the client is a work philosophy that has guided the company over its 76 years of existence. Furthermore, Ultrapar has a solid partnership with its wide range of suppliers and resellers network, based on ethics principles and on management focused on sustainable financial results. These characteristics contribute for the endurance of Ultrapar’s businesses, in addition to generating benefits that are extended to its partners.

One of the main traits of Ipiranga’s corporate culture is the close relationship with the resellers, which is strongly supported by qualification and training programs for service stations’ owners and employees – the VIP (Vendedores Ipiranga de Pista), as pump attendants are known at Ipiranga. In order to keep a differentiated business model, Ipiranga seeks to develop several pioneering initiatives in the sector. Among the initiatives, one of the most well-known is the Clube VIP (VIP Club), an incentive program specifically focused on service stations’ employees that aims at engaging those employees and at encouraging the achievement of goals. With relation to end consumers, Km de Vantagens is a case of success in the differentiation strategy designed by Ipiranga with the aim of building customer loyalty. With 15 million participants by the end of 2013, the program became the company’s main relationship platform, promoting a major evolution in Ipiranga’s actions towards and communication with end consumers.

The close relationship with the client is one of the main pillars for the success of Oxiteno’s strategy, as the process for the development of new formulations is intrinsically linked to the specific demands of each client. In the agrochemical segment, this closeness becomes even more evident, resulting in a virtuous combination of shared efforts and results.

In order to enhance the interaction with clients and other stakeholders, Ultracargo introduced this year the "Conhecendo Melhor a Ultracargo" (“Knowing Ultracargo Better”) program. The program made it possible to set a more structured, standardized process for visits to all the company’s units, increasing the efficiency in meeting the expectations that motivated the visits. Since its inception, 32 visits were scheduled to the Suape, Aratu, Santos and Rio de Janeiro terminals and to the headquarters. The initiative allows the feedbacks provided by visitors to be used to enhance processes and services.

Anticipating trends related to consumer habits has been one of the main focuses of Ultragaz’s attention, and has generated adjustments to operations, to assets and to customer service. In this context, Ultragaz ordered in 2013 a major market research from Instituto Gallup focused on changes in habits and needs of end consumers regarding service quality, as a result of the increase in the number of delivery channels and in service speed in the bulk and bottled segments, which allowed the company to begin testing initiatives to draw the company even closer to its clients and, thus, enhance the products and services offered.

Relationship with Independent Auditors

Ultrapar and its subsidiaries’ policies on contracting services from its independent auditors aims to ensure that there is no conflict of interest, loss of independence or objectivity, being based on principles that preserve the auditor’s independence. To avoid any subjectivity in the definition of the principles of independence in services provided by external auditors, procedures for the approval of hiring such services have been established, expressly defining the services to be (i) previously authorized, (ii) subject to prior approval by the Fiscal Council/Audit Committee, and (iii) prohibited.

For the year ending December 31st, 2013, Ultrapar and its subsidiaries did not contract any service from their independent auditors not directly linked to the auditing of financial statements. The total amount to the independent auditors in connection with auditing services of the 2013 financial statements was R$ 3.8 million. In addition to that, Ultrapar contracted services in the amount of R$ 1.1 million related to auditing fees of the special purpose financial statements used for the approval of the merger of shares of Extrafarma by Ultrapar.

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu began to provide external audit services to Ultrapar in 2012.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE IN 2013

Standards and criteria adopted in preparing the information

The financial information presented in this results discussion has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The financial information of Ultragaz, Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated financial information of Ultrapar. In addition, except when otherwise indicated, the amounts presented in this document are expressed in millions of Reais and, therefore, are subject to rounding off. Consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.

On October 4th, 2012, CVM issued the Instruction No. 527 (“ICVM 527”), which governs the disclosure by listed companies in Brazil of EBITDA — Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, and EBIT — Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, for the results disclosed from January 1st, 2013 onwards.

From 2013 onwards, the adoption of IFRS 11 and IAS (International Accounting Standard) 19 became mandatory in the presentation of financial statements of publicly-traded companies, resulting in the following changes: (i) results from joint ventures (“JV”) are no longer proportionally consolidated and will be recognized through the equity method and (ii) actuarial gains and losses from post-employment benefits cease to affect the operating results and start to be recognized under shareholders’ equity, and past service costs are recognized in retained earnings within shareholders’ equity in the date of transition.

In order to provide comparability of financial statements with periods prior to the adoption of the aforementioned accounting changes, the figures presented in this document relating to 2012 have been updated in accordance with ICVM 527, IFRS 11 and IAS 19. EBITDA according to ICVM 527, IFRS 11 and IAS 19 and net earnings according to IAS 19 differ from EBITDA and net earnings previously reported by the company, as shown below:

The information on EBIT and EBITDA included in this document was prepared in accordance with ICVM 527.

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

Ipiranga’s sales volume in 2013 grew by 6% over 2012, totaling 24,758 thousand cubic meters. Sales volume of gasoline, ethanol and natural gas for vehicles increased by 9% in relation to 2012, as a result of an estimated 7% growth of the light vehicles fleet and strong investments in new service stations and in the conversion of unbranded service stations. Diesel volumes, in turn, grew by 4% as a result of the 7% growth in the volume sold in the reseller segment, derived from investments made in expanding the service station network and, to a lesser extent, the growth of the economy. At Oxiteno, sales volume of specialty chemicals reached 687 thousand tons in 2013, up 8% compared with the previous year, mainly due to (i) investments to expand production capacity over the last years (ii) the growth of the segments served by Oxiteno in Brazil, in particular cosmetics, detergents, agrochemicals and coatings, and (iii) the acquisition of the specialty chemicals plant in Uruguay. Oxiteno’s total volume sold increased by 2% in 2013, with the strong growth of specialties partly offset by lower sales of glycols in the second half of 2013, leading to a richer sales mix. Ultracargo’s average storage grew by 13% compared with 2012, driven by the acquisition of a terminal in the port of Itaqui, in August 2012, and by the increased product handling at the Suape, Aratu and Santos terminals, which was enabled by the investments carried out over the last years. Ultragaz’s sales volume reached 1,696 thousand tons in 2013, up 1% over 2012, due to the 3% growth in the bulk segment, as a consequence of investments made to capture new customers, especially in the residential segment and in small- and medium-sized companies.

Net revenue from sales and services
Ultrapar’s net revenue from sales and services amounted to R$ 60,940 million in 2013, a 13% growth over 2012. In the same comparison, Ipiranga’s net revenue increased by 14%, mainly due to (i) increased sales volume, (ii) the rise in diesel, gasoline and ethanol costs, and (iii) improved sales mix, resulting from investments in the service station network expansion, which enabled a higher share of fuels for light vehicles and diesel sold through the reseller segment (sales in service stations). Oxiteno reported a 12% growth in net revenue, as a result of the 10% weaker Real and the 2% growth of sales volume. Ultracargo’s net revenue totaled R$ 332 million, up 13% over 2012, mainly due to the increased average storage. Ultragaz’s net revenue amounted to R$ 3,982 million in 2013, up 4% over 2012, mainly as a result of increased sales volume in the bulk segment.

Cost of products and services sold
Ultrapar’s cost of products and services sold amounted to R$ 56,165 million in 2013, growth of 13% over 2012. Ipiranga’s cost of products sold increased by 14% over 2012, mainly due to the growth in sales volume and the cost increases by Petrobras (i) in diesel, in January, March and November 2013, and (ii) in gasoline, in January 2013. Oxiteno’s cost of products sold presented a 7% increase over 2012 mainly due to the effect of the 10% weaker Real on variable costs and the 2% growth in sales volume, effects partially offset by a 5% reduction in unit variable costs in dollars. Ultracargo’s cost of services presented a 14% increase over 2012 as a result of increased average storage and increased depreciation, as a consequence of the capacity expansions and the acquisition of the terminal in Itaqui in August 2012. Ultragaz’s cost of products sold increased by 3% over 2012, as a result of increased sales volume, the effects of inflation on costs, and increased requalification of LPG bottles, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives implemented over the year.

Gross profit
Ultrapar reported gross profit of R$ 4,775 million in 2013, a 16% growth over 2012, as a consequence of the growth in the gross profit of all businesses.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses
Ultrapar’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses amounted to R$ 2,769 million in 2013, up 12% over 2012. Ipiranga's selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses presented a 9% increase over 2012, mainly resulting from (i) increased sales volume and increased unit expenses with freight, derived from the rise in diesel costs and inflation (ii) the expansion of the distribution network, and (iii) the effects of inflation on personnel expenses. Oxiteno’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses grew by 26% over 2012, due to (i) increased logistics expenses, resulting from the rise in diesel costs and the effect of the weaker Real, (ii) the startup of the company’s operations in Uruguay and in the United States, (iii) an increase in variable compensation, in line with earnings progression, and (iv) the effects of inflation on expenses. Ultracargo’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses were up 27% compared to 2012, mainly as a result of the acquisition of the terminal in Itaqui, increased expenses with projects and the effects of inflation on expenses. Ultragaz’s selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses grew by 6% over 2012, mainly due to the effects of inflation on personnel expenses and freight, partially offset by expense reduction initiatives implemented over the year.

Income from disposal of assets
Ultrapar reported in 2013 an income from disposal of assets in the total amount of R$ 40 million, R$ 37 million above that of 2012, mainly due to sale of part of a logistics facility of Ipiranga.

EBITDA
Ultrapar’s consolidated EBITDA reached R$ 2,918 million in 2013, a 21% growth over 2012. Ipiranga reported an EBITDA of R$ 2,030 million in 2013, up 23% from 2012, mainly due to (i) investments in the resellers’ network expansion resulting in increased sales volume in the reseller segment (sales in service stations), (ii) the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience in the service station, (iii) initiatives for reducing the grey market in the ethanol segment, and (iv) the inventory effects resulting from the evolution of ethanol, diesel and gasoline costs, partially offset by higher expenses, mainly with freight. Oxiteno’s EBITDA totaled R$ 441 million, a growth of 25% over 2012, as a result of (i) the effect of the 10% weaker Real, (ii) a richer sales mix in 2013, with increased share of specialty chemicals, and (iii) the 2% growth in sales volume, partially offset by expenses related to the startup of the company's operations in the United States and in Uruguay. Ultracargo reached an EBITDA of R$ 158 million in 2013, an increase of 10% over 2012, mainly due to the acquisition of the terminal in Itaqui and higher average storage. Ultragaz’s EBITDA amounted to R$ 281 million, 14% higher than that of 2012, mainly due to the costs and expenses reduction initiatives implemented over the year.



Depreciation and amortization
Total depreciation and amortization costs and expenses in 2013 amounted to R$ 779 million, up R$ 86 million or 12% over 2012, due to increased investments and the acquisitions in the port of Itaqui, by Ultracargo, and in Uruguay, by Oxiteno.

11

 
Financial result
Ultrapar reported net financial expenses of R$ 338 million in 2013, R$ 67 million above that of 2012, mainly due to the increased average net debt and effects of the exchange rate over the year.

Net income
Ultrapar’s consolidated net income in 2013 reached R$ 1,229 million, 20% higher than that of 2012, mainly as a result of the growth in EBITDA between the periods.

Indebtedness
Ultrapar closed the fiscal year 2013 with a gross debt of R$ 6,970 million, resulting in a net debt of R$ 3,426 million, an increase of R$ 342 million over 2012, mainly due to investments in expansion and maintenance in all businesses and dividends distributed over the last 12 months. At the end of 2013 the net debt corresponded to 1.2 times EBITDA for the last 12 months, a reduction compared to the ratio of 1.3 times EBITDA at the end of 2012, as a result of the earnings growth in all businesses.




Outlook

Ultrapar should continue to reap the benefits of investments made in expanding its businesses, in addition to the initiatives for differentiation and to establish a closer relationship with customers.

At Ipiranga, strong and consistent investments in expanding the service station network and related logistics infrastructure, focused on the North, Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil, will continue to leverage the benefits from the growth of the vehicle fleet in Brazil and the reduction of grey market. Additionally, the company will proceed with its differentiation initiatives, based on increasing the offer of products, services and convenience, to further expand the number of increasingly satisfied and loyal consumers.

At Ultragaz, the benefits from recent investments in capturing new customers and the continued focus on managing costs and expenses will contribute to continue its growth.

Oxiteno will keep the focus on innovation, with the development of new products, and will act to maximize the benefits from the ramp up of investments in production capacity expansion in Brazil, in a more favorable exchange rate scenario. Additionally, the company will continue the consolidation of its international expansion plan.

Ultracargo, in turn, will continue to focus on the benefits generated by the expansion of existing terminals and will keep attentive to opportunities from the growing demand for liquid bulk storage in Brazil, which includes evaluating expansions and participating in bidding processes that are expected to take place in 2014.

In 2014, Ultrapar will incorporate the Extrafarma drugstore chain into its activities, focusing on integrating the new business and detailing the accelerated expansion plan, which should be developed more intensively from 2015 onwards.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors and Management of
Ultrapar Participações S.A.
São Paulo - SP
 
We have audited the accompanying individual and consolidated financial statements of Ultrapar Participações S.A. (the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 and the statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
 
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
 
Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the individual financial statements in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRSs, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, and in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
 
Auditor’s responsibility
 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
 
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
 
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
 
 
 

 
 
Opinion on the individual financial statements
 
In our opinion, the individual financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ultrapar Participações S.A. as of December 31, 2013, its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil.
 
Opinion on the consolidated financial statements
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Ultrapar Participações S.A. as of December 31, 2013, its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with IFRSs, as issued by the IASB, and accounting practices adopted in Brazil.
 
Emphasis of matter
 
Measurement of investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
 
We draw attention to note 2 to the financial statements, which states that the individual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil. In the case of Ultrapar Participações S.A., these accounting practices differ from the IFRSs, applicable to separate financial statements, only with respect to the measurement of investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures by the equity method of accounting, which, for purposes of IFRSs, would be measured at cost or fair value. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
 
Restatement of corresponding figures
 
We draw attention to note 2.w) to the financial statements, which states that, due to the changes in the accounting policy for joint ventures and for employee benefits, the individual and consolidated corresponding figures relating to the prior year, presented as comparative information, have been adjusted and are restated as required by technical pronouncement CPC 23 and international standard IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and technical pronouncement CPC 26 (R1) and international standard IAS 1 (Revised 2007) - Presentation of Financial Statements. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
 
Other matters
 
Statements of value added
 
We have also audited the individual and consolidated statements of value added (“DVA”) for the year ended December 31, 2013, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by Brazilian corporate law for publicly-traded companies, and as supplemental information for IFRS, that do not require the presentation of DVA. These statements were subject to the same auditing procedures described above and, in our opinion, are fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

The accompanying financial statements have been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.

Operations

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

The Company engages in the investment of its own capital in services, commercial and industrial activities, by the subscription or acquisition of shares of other companies. Through its subsidiaries, it operates in the segments of liquefied petroleum gas - LPG distribution (“Ultragaz”), fuel distribution and related businesses (“Ipiranga”), production and marketing of chemicals (“Oxiteno”), and storage services for liquid bulk (“Ultracargo”). The Company also operates in oil refining through its joint-venture in Refinaria de Petróleo Riograndense S.A. (“RPR”).

On September 30, 2013, in order to operate in the retail and wholesale pharmacy segment, Ultrapar signed an association agreement with Imifarma Produtos Farmacêuticos e Cosméticos S.A. (“Extrafarma”), which operates a drugstore chain in Brazil through the brand Extrafarma. The closing of the transaction occurred on January 31, 2014 (see Note 31 – Subsequent events). For further details see Material Notice released on September 30, 2013, Material Notice released on December 19, 2013 and Market Announcement released on January 31, 2014.

2.
Summary of significant accounting policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil (“BR GAAP”).

The Company’s individual financial statements are presented in accordance with BR GAAP. The investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured by the equity method of accounting, which, for purposes of IFRS, would be measured at cost or fair value.

The accounting practices adopted in Brazil comprise the Brazilian Corporate Law and the Pronouncements, Guidelines and Interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”) and approved by the Federal Accounting Council (“CFC”) and the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”).

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

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

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

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

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

c.
Financial instruments
 
In accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 32, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 (CPC 38, 39 and 40 (R1)), the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries are classified in accordance with the following categories:

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

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

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

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


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

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

Investments in associates in which management has a significant influence or in which it holds 20% or more of the voting stock, or that are under joint control are also accounted for under the equity method of accounting in the individual and consolidated financial statements (see Note 11).

Other investments are stated at acquisition cost less provision for losses, unless the loss is considered temporary.


g.
Property, plant and equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment is recognized at acquisition or construction cost, including financial charges incurred on property, plant and equipment under construction, as well as maintenance costs resulting from scheduled plant outages and estimated costs to remove, to decommission or to restore assets (see Note 18).

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

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

h.
Leases
 
• Finance leases

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

• Operating leases

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

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

 
Goodwill is carried net of accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2008, when it ceased to be amortized. Goodwill generated since January 1, 2009 is shown as intangible asset corresponding to the positive difference between the amount paid or payable to the seller and the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities assumed of the acquired entity, and is tested annually for impairment. Goodwill is allocated to the respective cash generating units (“CGU”) for impairment testing purposes.

 
Bonus disbursements as provided in Ipiranga’s agreements with reseller service stations and major consumers are recognized as distribution rights when paid and amortized using the straight-line method according to the term of the agreement.

 
Other intangible assets acquired from third parties, such as software, technology and commercial property rights, are measured at the total acquisition cost and amortized using straight-line method, for the periods mentioned in Note 13, taking into account their useful life, which is reviewed annually.

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

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


k.
Financial liabilities
 
The Company and its subsidiaries’ financial liabilities include trade payables and other payables, loans, debentures and hedging instruments. Financial liabilities are classified as “financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” or “financial liabilities at amortized cost”. The financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss refer to derivative financial instruments and financial liabilities designated as hedged items in a fair value hedge relationship upon initial recognition (see Note 2.c – fair value hedge). The financial liabilities at amortized cost are stated at the initial transaction amount plus related charges and transaction costs, net of amortization. The charges are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate method (see Note 14.j).

Transaction costs incurred and directly attributable to the activities necessary for contracting loans or for issuing bonds, as well as premiums and discounts upon issuance of debentures and other debt or equity instruments, are allocated to the instrument and amortized to profit or loss over its term, using the effective interest rate method.

 
l.
Income and social contribution taxes on income
 
Current and deferred income tax (“IRPJ”) and social contribution on net income tax (“CSLL”) are calculated based on their current rates, considering the value of tax incentives. Taxes are recognized based on the rates of IRPJ and CSLL provided for by the laws enacted on the last day of the reporting period. The current rates in Brazil are 25% for income tax and 9% for social contribution on net income tax. For further details about recognition and realization of IRPJ and CSLL, see Note 9.


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


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


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

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


q.
Foreign currency transactions
 
Foreign currency transactions carried out by the Company or its subsidiaries are remeasured into their functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of each transaction. Outstanding monetary assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. The effect of the difference between those exchange rates is recognized in profit or loss until the conclusion of each transaction.

 
r.
Basis for translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
 
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, denominated in currencies other than that of the Company (functional currency: Brazilian Real), which have administrative autonomy, are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate of each period and shareholders’ equity are translated at the historic exchange rate of each transaction affecting shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments and will be recognized in profit or loss if these investments are disposed of. The recognized balance in other comprehensive income and presented in the shareholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments as of December 31, 2013 was a gain of R$ 38,076 (gain of R$ 12,621 as of December 31, 2012 and loss of R$ 4,426 on January 1, 2012).

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

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

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

Assets and liabilities of the other foreign subsidiaries, which do not have administrative autonomy, are considered as an extension of the activities of their parent company and are translated using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from changes in these foreign investments are directly recognized as financial income or loss. The gain recognized in income in 2013 amounted to R$ 4,845 (R$ 2,347 gain in 2012).

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


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

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

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

No impairment was recognized in the periods presented (see Note 13.i).
 
 
u.
Adjustment to present value
 
Some of the Company’s subsidiaries recognized a present value adjustment to Tax on Goods and Services (“ICMS”, the Brazilian VAT) credit balances related to property, plant and equipment (CIAP – see Note 7). Because recovery of these credits occurs over a 48 months period, the present value adjustment reflects, in the financial statements, the time value of the ICMS credits to be recovered. The balance of these adjustment to present value totalized R$ 354 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 747 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 3,007 as of January 1, 2012).

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


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

Adoption of the pronouncements issued by CPC and IFRS
 
The following standards are effective on January 1st, 2013 and have impacted the Company’s financial statements previously disclosed for December 31, 2012 and 2011.

(1) adoption of IFRS 11 (CPC 19 (R2)) - Joint arrangements: the investments in RPR, Maxfácil Participações S.A. (“Maxfácil”), Uniăo Vopak Armazéns Gerais Ltda. (“Uniăo Vopak”) and ConectCar Soluções de Mobilidade Eletrônica S.A. (“Conectcar”) are no longer proportionally consolidated and are accounted for using the equity method.

(2) amendments to IAS 19 Revised (CPC 33 (R2))- Employee benefits: actuarial gains and losses are no longer recognized in the income statement and are recognized in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income. Past service costs are recognized in retained earnings within shareholders’ equity in the date of transition. From the date of transition, past service costs will be recognized in income statements when measured.

 The table below summarizes the effects of adopting these standards on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012 and on the consolidated income statements and consolidated statement of cash flow as of December 31, 2012:

Notes to the financial statements

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, unless otherwise stated)
 
 
The following standards were effective on January 1st, 2013 and were adopted by the Company, with impacts only in the presentation and disclosure of financial statements (with no impacts in recognition and measurement criteria):

• 
Consolidated financial statements – IFRS 10 and transition guidance (equivalent to CPC 36 R3): provides a single consolidation model that identifies control as the basis for consolidation for all types of entities.
•  .
Disclosure of interests in other entities– IFRS 12 and transition guidance (equivalent to CPC 45): expands the current disclosure requirements in respect of entities where the Company has influence.
•  
Amendments to IAS 27 – Separate financial statements (equivalent to CPC 35 R2): IAS 27 requirements related to consolidated financial statements are replaced by IFRS 10. The requirements for separate financial statements are maintained.
• 
Amendments to IAS 28 – Investments in associates and joint ventures (equivalent to CPC 18 R2): revision of IAS 28 to include the changes introduced by IFRSs 10, 11 and 12.
• 
Fair value measurement – IFRS 13 (equivalent to CPC 46): replaces and consolidates in a single standard all the guidance and requirements in respect of fair value measurement contained in other IFRSs. IFRS 13 defines fair value and provides guidance on how to measure fair value and requirements for disclosure relating to fair value measurement. However, it does not introduce any new requirement or amendment with respect to items to be measured at fair value.
• 
Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation of financial statements: other comprehensive income (equivalent to CPC 26 R1 after CPC 03 Review): introduces the requirement that all items recognized in other comprehensive income be separated into and totaled as items that are and items that are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss.
•  
Amendments to IFRS 7 – Financial instruments: offsetting financial assets and liabilities (equivalent to CPC 40 R1 after CPC 03 Review): requires information about all recognized financial instruments that are set off in accordance with IAS 32.
 
Certain standards, amendments and interpretations to IFRS issued by IASB that have been issued but are not yet effective were not applied as of December 31, 2013, as follows:

Deferred Stock Plan
   
  On April 27, 2001, the General Shareholders’ Meeting approved a benefit plan to members of management and employees in executive positions in the Company and its subsidiaries. On November 26, 2003, the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting approved certain amendments to the original plan of 2001 (the “Deferred Stock Plan”). In the Deferred Stock Plan, certain members of management of the Company and its subsidiaries have the voting and economic rights of shares and the ownership of these shares is retained by the subsidiaries of the Company. The Deferred Stock Plan provides for the transfer of the ownership of the shares to those eligible members of management after five to ten years from the initial concession of the rights subject to uninterrupted employment of the participant during the period. The total number of shares to be used for the Deferred Stock Plan is subject to the availability in treasury of such shares. It is incumbent on Ultrapar’s executive officers to select the members of management eligible for the plan and propose the number of shares in each case for approval by the Board of Directors. At December 31, 2013, the amount granted to the company’s executives, including tax charges, amounted R$ 63,643 (R$ 63,643 until December 31, 2012). This amount is amortized over the vesting period of Deferred Stock Plan. The amortization in 2013 in the amount of R$ 9,729 (R$ 6,426 in 2012) was recognized as a general and administrative expense. The fair value of the awards were determined on the grant date based on the market value of the shares on the BM&FBOVESPA S.A. – Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (“BM&FBOVESPA”), the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange.

Deferred income and social contribution taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries recognize tax credits and debits, which are not subject to statute of limitations, resulting from tax loss carryforwards, temporary differences, negative tax bases and revaluation of property, plant and equipment, among others. Credits are sustained by the continued profitability of their operations. Deferred IRPJ and CSLL are recognized under the following main categories:

Nondeductible expenses, consist of certain expenses that cannot be deducted for tax purposes under applicable tax legislation, such as expenses with fines, donations, gifts, losses of assets and certain provisions;
 
(ii)
Nontaxable revenues, consist of certain gains and income that are not taxable under applicable tax legislation, such as the reimbursement of taxes and the reversal of certain provisions;
 
(iii)
Brazilian tax law allows for an alternative method of taxation for companies that generated gross revenues of up to R$ 48 million in their previous fiscal year. Certain subsidiaries of the Company adopted this alternative form of taxation, whereby income and social contribution taxes are calculated on a basis that is equal to 32% of operating revenues, as opposed to being calculated based on the effective taxable income of these subsidiaries. The adjustment to estimated income represents the difference between the taxation under this alternative method and the income and social contribution taxes that would have been paid based on the effective statutory rate applied to the taxable income of these subsidiaries.
 
(iv)
Interest on equity is an option foreseen in Brazilian corporate law to distribute profits to shareholders, calculated based on the long-term interest rate (“TJLP”), which does not affect the income statement, but is deductible for purposes of IRPJ and CSLL.

(1) In 2014 the subsidiary will request the extension of the recognition of tax incentive for another 10 years, due to the production increase in the Caucaia base and modernization in the Mataripe base.

(2) On December 26, 2013, the petition requesting the extension of the tax incentive for another 10 years was granted by SUDENE, due the modernization in the Aratu terminal. On January 16, 2014 the report was filed with the Federal Revenue Service, which has a period of 120 days for approval before Tequimar can use the incentive retrospectively.


d.
Income and social contribution taxes carryforwards
 
As of December 31, 2013, the Company and certain subsidiaries have loss carryforwards (income tax) amounting to R$ 142,952 (R$ 171,409 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 145,030 as of January 1, 2012) and negative basis of CSLL of R$ 109,652 (R$ 155,911 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 135,454 as of January 1, 2012), whose compensations are limited to 30% of taxable income, which do not expire. Based on these values the Company and its subsidiaries recognized deferred income and social contribution tax assets in the amount of R$ 45,607 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 56,884 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 48,448 as of January 1, 2012).

 
e.
Provisional Measure No. 627
 
On November 11, 2013 Provisional Measure No. 627 (MP 627/13) was issued, which, among other matters: (i) revokes the Transition Tax Regime (RTT) and regulates the incidence of taxes on the adjustments arising from the convergence of accounting practices adopted in Brazil and international financial reporting standards (IFRS) and (ii) provides for the taxation of residents in Brazil related to profits of overseas subsidiaries and associates.

The Company has assessed the potential effects of MP 627/13 and awaits its conversion into law for completion of the assessment of impacts, however the expected effects are not material based on a preliminary analysis.

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

The evaluation of the value in use is calculated for a period of five years, after which we calculate the perpetuity, considering the possibility of carrying the business on indefinitely.

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

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

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

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

iv) Commercial property rights include those described below:

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

  1) In November 2012 the subsidiary IPP contracted a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 80 million, due in November 2015 and bearing interest of LIBOR + 0.8% p.a., paid quarterly. IPP also contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in U.S. dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 104.1% of CDI (see Note 22). IPP designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loan and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception, with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. The foreign loan is secured by the Company.
 
2) The subsidiary Oxiteno Overseas Corp. (“Oxiteno Overseas”) has a foreign loan in the amount of US$ 60 million with maturity in June 2014 and interest of LIBOR + 1.0% p.a., paid semiannually. The Company, through its subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz, contracted hedging instruments with floating interest rate in dollar and exchange rate variation, changing the foreign loan charge to 86.9% of CDI (see Note 22). The foreign loan is guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiary Oxiteno S.A.
 
As a result of these foreign loans, some obligations mentioned in Note 14.b) must also be maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries. Additionally, during these contracts, the Company shall maintain the following financial ratios, calculated based on its audited consolidated financial statement:


 
Maintenance of a financial ratio, determined by the ratio between consolidated net debt and consolidated Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), at less than or equal to 3.5.

 
Maintenance of a financial ratio, determined by the ratio between consolidated EBITDA and consolidated net financial expenses, higher than or equal to 1.5.

h.  Export credit note
 
In March 2013, the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste contracted an export credit note in the amount of R$ 17.5 million, with maturity in March 2016 and fixed interest rate of 8% p.a., paid quarterly.

In August 2013, the subsidiary Oxiteno Nordeste contracted an export credit note in the amount of R$ 10.0 million, with maturity in August 2016 and fixed interest rate of 8% p.a., paid quarterly.

Oxiteno Nordeste contracted interest hedging instruments, thus converting the fixed rates for these loans into 88.8% of CDI (see Note 22). Oxiteno Nordeste designated these hedging instruments as a fair value hedge; therefore, loans and hedging instruments are both measured at fair value from inception. Changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have losses in connection with these collaterals. The fair value of collaterals recognized in current liabilities as other payables is R$ 350 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 298 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 286 as of January 1, 2012), which is recognized as profit or loss as customers settle their obligations with the financial institutions.

Some financing agreements of the Company and its subsidiaries have cross default clauses that require them to pay the debt assumed in case of default of other debts equal to or greater than US$ 15 million.

The Company and its subsidiaries acquire oil based fuels and LPG from Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras and its subsidiaries and ethylene from Braskem S.A. and Braskem Qpar S.A. These suppliers control almost all the markets for these products in Brazil. The Company and its subsidiaries depend on the ability of those suppliers to deliver products in a timely manner and at acceptable prices and terms. The loss of any major supplier or a significant reduction in product availability from these suppliers could have a significant adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that their relationship with suppliers is satisfactory.

Ipiranga has a loyalty program called Km de Vantagens under which registered customers are rewarded with points when they buy products at Ipiranga service stations or at its partners. The customers may exchange these points, during the period of one year, for discounts on products and services offered by Ipiranga and its partners. Points received by Ipiranga’s customers that may be used with the partner Multiplus Fidelidade and for discounts of fuel in Ipiranga’s website (www.postoipiranganaweb.com.br) are considered part of the sales revenue based on the fair value of the points granted. Revenue is deferred based on the expected redemption of points, and is recognized in profit or loss when the points are redeemed, on which occasion the costs incurred are also recognized. Deferred revenue of unredeemed points is also recognized in profit or loss when the points expire.
 
The franchising upfront fee related to the ‘am/pm’ convenience store chain received by Ipiranga is deferred and recognized in profit or loss on an accrual basis, based on the substance of the agreements with the franchisees.

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


Cumulative translation adjustments

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

Risks and financial instruments (Consolidated)

Risk management and financial instruments - Governance

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

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

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

Currency risk

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

The Company and its subsidiaries use exchange rate hedging instruments (especially between the Brazilian Real and the U.S. dollar) available in the financial market to protect their assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency and net investments in foreign operations, in order to reduce the effects of changes in exchange rates on its results and cash flows in Brazilian Reais within the exposure limits under its Policy. Such foreign exchange hedging instruments have amounts, periods, and rates substantially equivalent to those of assets, liabilities, receipts and disbursements in foreign currency to which they are related. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are stated below, translated into Brazilian Reais as of December 31, 2013. December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012:

Interest rate risk

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

The Company does not actively manage risks associated with changes in the level of interest rates and attempts to maintain its financial interest assets and liabilities at floating rates. As of December 31, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate derivative financial instruments linked to domestic loans, swapping the fixed interest rate of certain debts to floating interest rate (CDI).

Credit risks

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

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

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

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

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

Liquidity risk
 
The Company and its subsidiaries’ main sources of liquidity derive from (i) cash, cash equivalents and financial investments, (ii) cash generated from operations and (iii) financings. The Company and its subsidiaries believe that these sources are sufficient to satisfy their current funding requirements, which include, but are not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, amortization of debt and payment of dividends.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries periodically examine opportunities for acquisitions and investments. They consider different types of investments, either directly or through joint ventures, or associated companies, and finance such investments using cash generated from operations, debt financing, through capital increases or through a combination of these methods.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries believe to have enough working capital to satisfy their current needs. The gross indebtedness due over the next twelve months totals R$ 2,056.9 million, including estimated interests on loans. Furthermore, the investment plan for 2014 totals R$ 1,484.0 million. On December 31, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries had R$ 3,425.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term financial investments (for quantitative information, see Notes 4 and 14).
 
The table below presents a summary of financial liabilities as of December 31, 2013 to be settled by the Company and its subsidiaries, by maturity. The amounts disclosed in this table are the contractual undiscounted cash outflows, and, therefore, these amounts ​​can be different from the amounts disclosed on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2013.

(1) To calculate the estimated interest on loans some macroeconomic assumptions were used, including, on average for the period: (i) CDI of 12.0% p.a., (ii) exchange rate of the Real against the U.S. dollar of R$ 2.50 in 2014, R$ 2.72 in 2015, R$ 3.00 in 2016 and R$ 3.29 in 2017 and R$ 3.57 in 2018 (iii) TJLP of 5.0% p.a. and (iv) IGP-M of 6.4% in 2014, 5.4% in 2015, 5.4% in 2016, 5.4% in 2017 and 5.4% in 2018 (source: BM&FBOVESPA, Bulletin Focus and financial institutions).
 
(2) Includes estimated interest payments on short-term and long-term loans until the payment.
 
(3) The currency and interest rate hedging instruments were estimated based on projected U.S dollar futures contracts and the futures curve of DI x Pre contract quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 30, 2013, and on the futures curve of LIBOR (BBA - British Bankers Association) on December 31, 2013. In the table above, only the hedging instruments with negative result at the time of settlement were considered.

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

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

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

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

Hedging instruments existing as of December 31, 2013 are described below, according to their category, risk, and hedging strategy:

a - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of liabilities in foreign currency - The purpose of these contracts is (i) to offset the effect of the change in exchange rates of debts or firm commitments in U.S. dollars by converting them into debts or firm commitments in Brazilian Reais linked to CDI and (ii) change a financial investment linked to the CDI and given as guarantee to loan in U.S. dollar, into a financial investment linked to U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 227.4 million in notional amount with liability position, on average of 103.5% of CDI, of which US$ 87.4 million, on average, had asset position at US$ + 4.19% p.a. and US$ 140.0 million had asset position at US$ + LIBOR + 1.0% p.a.

b.1 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of operations - The purpose of these contracts is to make the exchange rate of the revenues of subsidiaries Oleoquímica, Oxiteno S.A. and Oxiteno Nordeste equal to the exchange rate of the cost of their main raw materials during their operating cycles. As of December 31, 2013, these swap contracts totaled US$ 13.1 million and, on average, had an asset position at 79.3% of CDI and liability position at US$ + 0.0% p.a.

b.2 - Hedging against foreign exchange exposure of net investments in foreign operations - The purpose of these contracts is to minimize the effect of exchange variation of investments in foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the functional currency of the Company, turning them into investments in Brazilian Reais. On December 31, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries had outstanding swap contracts totaling US$ 35.0 million in notional amount with asset position at 95.1% of CDI and liability position of US$ + 0.0% p.a.

c - Hedging against the interest rate fixed in local financing - The purpose of these contracts is to convert the interest rate on financing contracted in Brazilian Reais from fixed into floating. On December 31, 2013 these swap contracts totaled R$ 627.5 million of notional amount corresponding to principal amount of related debt, and on average had an asset position at 12.0% p.a. and liability position at 98.8% of CDI.
 
Hedge accounting

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

On December 31, 2013 the notional amount of interest rate hedging instruments totaled R$ 627.5 million referring to the principal of the pre-fixed loans in Brazilian Reais. As of December 31, 2013, a loss of R$ 18.0 million related to the result of hedging instruments, an income of R$ 69.9 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt and an expense of R$ 131.7 million related to the accrued interest rate of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operations into 98.8% of CDI.

On December 31, 2013 the notional amount of foreign exchange hedging instruments designated as fair value hedge totaled US$ 80.0 million. As of December 31, 2013, a gain of R$ 15.4 million related to the result of hedging instruments, an expense of R$ 2.7 million related to the fair value adjustment of debt and an expense of R$ 26.1 million related to the financial expense of the debt were recognized in the income statements, transforming the average effective cost of the operation into 104.1% of CDI (see Note 14.c.1).

On December 31, 2013 the notional amount of exchange rate hedging instruments designated as hedges of net investment in a foreign operation totaled US$ 35 million relating to the portion of investments in entities which have functional currency different from the Real. In 2013 an expense of R$ 1.7 million was recorded. The exchange rate on investment and the hedging instrument effects were offset in equity.

The fair value of financial instruments, including currency and interest hedging instruments, was determined as follows:

The fair values of cash and bank deposits balances are identical to their carrying values.
   
Financial investments in investment funds are valued at the value of the fund unit as of the date of the reporting period, which corresponds to their fair value.
   
Financial investments in CDBs (Bank Certificates of Deposit) and similar investments offer daily liquidity through repurchase at the “yield curve” and, therefore, the Company believes their fair value corresponds to their carrying value.

The fair value calculation of LPG Inc.’s notes in the foreign market (see Note 14.b) is based on the quoted prices in an active market.

The fair value of other financial investments and financings was determined using calculation methodologies commonly used for marking-to-market, which consist of calculating future cash flows associated with each instrument adopted and adjusting them to present value at the market rates as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012. For some cases where there is no active market for the financial instrument, the Company and its subsidiaries can use quotes provided by the transaction counterparties.

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

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

(a)
Level 1 - prices negotiated (without adjustment) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

(b)
Level 2 - inputs other than prices negotiated in active markets included in Level 1 and observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
   
 (c)
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability which are not based on observable market variables (unobservable inputs).

Sensitivity analysis

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

For the sensitivity analysis of foreign exchange hedging instruments, management adopted as a likely scenario the Real/U.S. dollar exchange rates at maturity of each swap, projected by U.S dollar futures contracts quoted on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 30, 2013. As a reference, the exchange rate for the last maturity of foreign exchange hedging instruments is R$ 3.18 in the likely scenario. Scenarios II and III were estimated with a 25% and 50% additional appreciation or depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the likely scenario, according to the risk to which the hedged item is exposed.

Based on the balances of the hedging instruments and hedged items as of December 31, 2013, the exchange rates were replaced, and the changes between the new balance in Brazilian Reais and the balance in Brazilian Reais as of December 31, 2013 were calculated in each of the three scenarios. The table below shows the change in the values of the main derivative instruments and their hedged items, considering the changes in the exchange rate in the different scenarios:

For sensitivity analysis of hedging instruments for interest rates in Brazilian Reais, the Company used the futures curve of DI x Pre contract on BM&FBOVESPA as of December 30, 2013 for each of the swap and debt (hedged item) maturities, to determine the likely scenarios. Scenarios II and III were estimated based on a 25% and 50% deterioration, respectively, of the likely scenario pre-fixed interest rate.

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

Tax matters

Provisions

On October 7, 2005, the subsidiaries Cia. Ultragaz and Bahiana Distribuidora de Gás Ltda. (“Bahiana”) filed for and obtained a preliminary injunction to recognize and offset PIS and COFINS credits on LPG purchases, against other taxes levied by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, notably IRPJ and CSLL. The decision was confirmed by a trial court on May 16, 2008. Under the preliminary injunction, the subsidiaries were required to make escrow deposits for these debits in the accumulated amount of R$ 345,513 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 291,483 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 242,058 as of January 1, 2012) and have recognized a corresponding liability.

The subsidiary IPP has provisions for IRPJ and CSLL related to the unconstitutionality of Law No. 9316/1996, that denied the deduction of CSLL from the IRPJ tax basis, in the amount of R$ 19,806 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 19,120 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 18,413 as of January 1, 2012).

The subsidiaries Oxiteno S.A., Oxiteno Nordeste, Cia. Ultragaz, Tequimar, Tropical, Empresa Carioca de Produtos Químicos S.A. (“EMCA”) and IPP filed for a preliminary injunction seeking the deduction of ICMS from their PIS and COFINS tax bases. Oxiteno Nordeste and IPP obtained the right to pay the amounts into escrow deposits through an injunction, and recognized a corresponding provision in the amount of R$ 86,306 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 81,622 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 75,636 as of January 1, 2012). The decisions of these and all claims involving this issue are suspended owing to the granting of injunctive relief on the Declaration of Constitutionality Action No. 18.

The subsidiary Oxiteno S.A. decided to pay off, within the Decree 58811/2012 amnesty issued by the State of Săo Paulo, a tax assessment based on alleged undue ICMS credits taken on invoices issued for the symbolic return of raw materials that had previously been delivered for industrialization. The provision in the amount of R$ 15,364 was paid in April 2013. Similarly, in November 2013 the subsidiary IPP decided to pay off, within the Decree 885/2013 amnesty issued by the State of Pará, a tax assessment in the amount of R$ 12,596.

The subsidiary IPP has provision related to ICMS, mainly with respect to several reasons that resulted in tax assessments for which the proof of payment is not so evident, R$ 19,449 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 19,499 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 16,021 as of January 1, 2012).

The subsidiary IPP has assessments invalidating the set-off of IPI credits in connection with the purchase of raw materials used in the manufacturing of products which sales are not subject to IPI under the protection of tax immunity. The non-provisioned amount of this contingency classified as a possible risk of loss, as of December 31, 2013, is R$ 117,697 (R$ 81,868 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 78,508 as of January 1, 2012).

 Contigent assets

The Company and its subsidiaries have favorable judgments to pay contributions to PIS and COFINS without the changes introduced by Law 9718/1998 in its original version. The ongoing questioning refers to the levy of these contributions on sources of income other than gross revenue. In 2005, the STF (the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court) decided the question in favor of the taxpayers. Although this has set a favorable precedent, the effect of this decision does not automatically apply to all companies, since they must await the formal decision in their own lawsuits. Certain lawsuits of the Company’s subsidiaries are currently pending trial and, in the event all such lawsuits are decided in favor of the subsidiaries, the Company estimates that the total positive effect on income before income and social contribution taxes, may reach R$ 36,197, net of attorney’s fees.

Civil claims
   
  Provisions

The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions for lawsuits and administrative proceedings, mainly derived from contracts entered into with customers and former services providers, as well as proceedings related to environmental issues in the amount of R$ 90,886 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 91,242 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 81,522 as of January 1, 2012).
 
Contingent liabilities
 
The subsidiary Cia. Ultragaz is party to an administrative proceeding before CADE (Brazilian antitrust authority) based on alleged anti-competitive practices in the State of Minas Gerais in 2001. The CADE entered a decision against Cia. Ultragaz imposing a penalty of R$ 23,104. The imposition of such administrative decision was suspended by a court order and its merit is being judicially reviewed. Based on the above elements and on the opinion of its legal counsel, the subsidiary did not recognized a provision for this contingency.

Labor matters
   
  Provisions
 
The Company and its subsidiaries maintained provisions of R$ 60,174 as of December 31, 2013 (R$ 44,186 as of December 31, 2012 and R$ 44,278 as of January 1, 2012) for labor litigation filed by former employees and by employees of our service providers mainly contesting the non-payment of labor rights.
 
Contingent liabilities
 
In 1990, the Petrochemical Industry Labor Union (Sindiquímica), of which the employees of Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, companies located in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex, are members, filed separate lawsuits against the subsidiaries demanding the compliance with the fourth section of the collective labor agreement, which provided for a salary adjustment in lieu of the salary policies practiced. In the same year, a collective labor dispute was also filed by the Union of Employers (SINPEQ) against Sindiquímica, requiring the recognition of the loss of effectiveness of such fourth section. Individual claims were rejected. The collective bargain agreement is currently pending trial by STF. In the second half of 2010, some companies in the Camaçari Petrochemical Complex signed an agreement with Sindiquímica and reported the fact in the collective bargain agreement dispute. Based on the opinion of their legal advisors, that reviewed the latest STF decision in the collective bargain agreement dispute as well as the status of the individual claims involving the subsidiaries Oxiteno Nordeste and EMCA, the management of such subsidiaries believed that it was not necessary to recognize a provision as of December 31, 2013.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries have other pending administrative and legal proceedings of tax, civil and labor nature, individually less relevant, which were estimated by their legal counsel as possible and/or remote risk (proceedings whose chance of loss is 50% or less), and the related potential losses were not provided for by the Company and its subsidiaries based on these opinions. The Company and its subsidiaries are also litigating for recovery of taxes and contributions, which were not recognized in the financial statements due to their contingent nature.

Insurance coverage in subsidiaries

The Company maintains appropriate insurance policies with the objective of covering several risks to which it is exposed, including property insurance against losses caused by fire, lightning, explosion of any kind, gale, aircraft crash, electric damage, and other risks, covering the industrial plants and distribution bases and branches of all subsidiaries. The maximum compensation values based on the risk analysis of maximum losses of each business are shown below:

The General Liability Insurance program covers the Company and its subsidiaries with a maximum aggregate coverage of US$ 400 million against losses caused to third parties as a result of accidents related to commercial and industrial operations and/or distribution and sale of products and services.

Since March 2013, the Company maintains liability insurance policies for directors and executive officers (D&O) to indemnify the members of the Board of Directors, executive officers of Ultrapar and its subsidiaries and members of the fiscal council in the total amount of US$50 million, which cover liabilities resulting from wrongful acts, including any act or omission committed or attempted by a person acting in his or her capacity as director, executive officer of Ultrapar and its subsidiaries and member of the fiscal council or any matter claimed against such directors, executive officers of Ultrapar and its subsidiaries and members of the fiscal council solely by reason of his or her serving in such capacity, except if the act, omission or the claim is consequence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

In addition, group life and personal accident, health and national and international transportation and other insurance policies are also maintained.

The coverages and limits of the insurance policies maintained are based on a careful study of risks and losses conducted by independent insurance advisors, and the type of insurance is considered by management to be sufficient to cover potential losses based on the nature of the business conducted by the companies.

Employee benefits and private pension plan (Consolidated)


a. 
ULTRAPREV- Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar

In February 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of a defined contribution pension plan to be sponsored by Company and each of its subsidiaries. Participating employees have been contributing to this plan, managed by Ultraprev - Associaçăo de Previdência Complementar (“Ultraprev”), since August 2001. Under the terms of the plan, every year each participating employee chooses his or her basic contribution to the plan. Each sponsoring company provides a matching contribution in an amount equivalent to each basic contribution, up to a limit of 11% of the employee’s reference salary, according to the rules of the plan. As participating employees retire, they may choose to receive either (i) a monthly sum ranging between 0.5% and 1.0% of their respective accumulated fund in Ultraprev or (ii) a fixed monthly amount which will exhaust their respective accumulated fund over a period of 5 to 25 years. The sponsoring company does not guarantee the amounts or the duration of the benefits received by each employee that retires. In 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries contributed R$ 17,876 (R$ 15,563 in 2012) to Ultraprev, which amount is recognized as expense in the income statement. The total number of participating employees as of December 31, 2013 was 6,811 active participants and 113 retired participants. In addition, Ultraprev had 29 former employees receiving benefits under the rules of a previous plan whose reserves are fully constituted.

 
b. 
Post-employment benefits

The Company and its subsidiaries recognized a provision for post-employment benefits mainly related to seniority bonus, payment of Government Severance Indemnity Fund (“FGTS”), and health, dental care and life insurance plan for eligible retirees.

The amounts related to such benefits were determined based on a valuation conducted by an independent actuary and are recognized in the financial statements in accordance with Resolution CVM 695/2012.

Sensitivity analysis

The significant actuarial assumptions to determine the provision for post-employment benefits are: discount rate, wage and medical costs increases. The following sensitivity analyses on December 31, 2013 were determined based on reasonably possible changes of assumptions occurring at the reporting date of the financial statements, keeping all other assumptions constant.

Assumption
Change in assumptions
 
Increase in liability
 
Change in assumptions
Decrease in liability
   
                 
Discount rate
 increase 1.0 p.p
 
9,142
 
decrease 1.0 p.p
7,624
   
Wage growth rate
 increase 1.0 p.p
 
1,997
 
decrease 1.0 p.p
1,968
   
Medical services growth rate
 increase 1.0 p.p
 
4,068
 
decrease 1.0 p.p
3,409
   

The sensitivity analysis presented may not represent the real change in the post-employment benefits obligation, since it is unlikely that changes occur in just one assumption alone, considering that some of these assumptions may be correlated.

Risks related to post-employment benefits

Interest rate risk: a long-term interest rate is used to calculate the present value of post-employment liabilities. A reduction in this interest rate will increase the corresponding liability.

Growth wage risk: the present value of the liability is calculated using as reference the wages of the plan participants, projected with the average nominal wage growth rate. An increase in the real wages of plan participants will increase the corresponding liability.

Medical costs growth risk: the present value of the liability is calculated using as reference the medical cost by age based on actual healthcare costs, projected based on the growth rate of medical services costs. An increase in the real medical costs will increase the corresponding liability.

Subsequent events

 
Acquisition of Extrafarma

On January 31, 2014 the merger of all shares issued by Extrafarma into Ultrapar was approved at the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. As a result, 12,021,100 new ordinary, nominative, book-entry shares with no par value of the Company were issued, increasing capital stock by R$ 141,913 and capital reserves by R$ 533,262, (which amount may be adjusted by the rules of CPC 15 (R1), approved by CVM Resolution No. 665 of August 4, 2011), resulting in total capital stock of R$ 3,838,686 represented by 556,405,096 shares. In addition, the Company issued subscription bonus that, if exercised, may lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future.

From January 31, 2014 Extrafarma became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultrapar and the shareholders of Extrafarma became long-term shareholders of Ultrapar. The association with Extrafarma marks Ultrapar’s entry into Brazil's retail pharmacy sector, making it the third distribution and specialty retail business of the Company.

The Company is preparing the opening balance sheet, measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities and, consequently, the goodwill.

Considerations on the financial and operational information

The financial information presented in this document has been prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial information of Ultrapar corresponds to the company’s consolidated information. The financial information of Ultragaz, Ipiranga, Oxiteno and Ultracargo is reported without elimination of intercompany transactions. Therefore, the sum of such information may not correspond to the consolidated financial information of Ultrapar. In addition, except when otherwise indicated, the amounts presented in this document are expressed in millions of Reais and, therefore, are subject to rounding off. Consequently, the total amounts presented in the tables may differ from the direct sum of the amounts that precede them.
 
On October 4th, 2012, CVM issued the Instruction No. 527 (“ICVM 527”), which governs the disclosure by listed companies in Brazil of EBITDA — Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, and EBIT — Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, for the results disclosed from January 1st, 2013 onwards.
 
From 2013 onwards, the adoption of IFRS 11 and IAS (International Accounting Standard) 19 became mandatory in the presentation of financial statements of publicly-traded companies, resulting in the following changes: (i) results from joint ventures (“JV”) are no longer proportionally consolidated and are recognized through the equity method and (ii) actuarial gains and losses from post-employment benefits ceased to affect the operating results and started to be recognized under shareholders’ equity, and past service costs are recognized in retained earnings within shareholders’ equity in the date of transition.
 
In order to provide comparability of financial statements with periods prior to the adoption of the aforementioned accounting changes, the figures presented in this document relating to 2012 have been updated in accordance with ICVM 527, IFRS 11 and IAS 19. EBITDA according to ICVM 527, IFRS 11 and IAS 19 and net earnings according to IAS 19 differ from EBITDA and net earnings previously reported by the company, as shown below:

Highlights

Ø
Ultrapar completes the association with Extrafarma – On September 30th, 2013, Ultrapar entered into an association agreement with Extrafarma, one of Brazil's ten largest drugstore chains. The transaction was closed on January 31st, 2014 with the approval of the association by the Extraordinary General Meetings of Ultrapar and Extrafarma. Extrafarma’s results will be consolidated in Ultrapar's financial statements after February 1st, 2014. Ultrapar’s Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting was attended by shareholders holding 74.0% of its total capital, a record attendance for Ultrapar, and the proposed matters were approved by 99.8% of the shareholders present. As a result of the merger of shares, 12,021,100 new ordinary, nominative book-entry shares with no par value were issued, totaling a capital stock of R$ 3,838,686,104.00 divided into 556,405,096 shares. In addition, the company issued subscription warrants, that, if exercised, may lead to the issuance of up to 4,007,031 shares in the future, pursuant to the Protocol and Justification of Merger of Shares published on December 19th, 2013. The association with Extrafarma marks Ultrapar’s entry into Brazil's significant, growing retail pharmacy sector, and Extrafarma became Ultrapar’s third business in specialized distribution and retail, with characteristics of growth, resilience and differentiation in services and convenience to its customers. This move opens new opportunities for value creation, mainly through the enhanced scale for the expansion of Extrafarma’s stores, to be boosted by the increased investment capacity, by the widespread presence of over 10 thousand Ipiranga’s service stations and Ultragaz’s resellers, and by the implementation of Ultrapar’s corporate governance and incentive systems, allowing the acceleration of its expansion plan. Additionally, the presence of drugstores in Ipiranga’s service stations and Ultragaz’s resellers provides more convenience and services to their customers, increasing the flow of people and the volume of fuels sold.

Ø
Dividend distribution of R$ 389 million approved – The Board of Directors of Ultrapar approved today a dividend payment of R$ 389 million, equivalent to R$ 0.71 per share, to be paid from March 12th, 2014 onwards. This distribution, added to the anticipated dividends distributed in August 2013, totals R$ 744 million in the year, representing a dividend yield of 3% on Ultrapar's average share price in 2013. The total amount distributed in 2013 is 19% higher than that in 2012, and reflects Ultrapar's earnings growth in recent years.

Ø
2014 investment plan approved – Ultrapar's investment plan for 2014, excluding acquisitions, amounts to R$ 1,484 million, which demonstrates the continuity of good opportunities to grow through increased scale and productivity gains, as well as modernization of existing operations.

At Ipiranga, we plan to invest (i) R$ 366 million to maintain the pace of expansion of its distribution network (through the conversion of unbranded service stations and the opening of new gas stations) and of am/pm and Jet Oil franchises, focused on the Midwest, Northeast and North regions of Brazil, (ii) R$ 121 million in the expansion of logistics infrastructure to support the growing demand, mainly through the construction of new logistics facilities, and (iii) R$ 400 million in the maintenance of its activities, mainly in the renewal of contracts of its distribution network and the renovation of service stations, and in the modernization of operations. Out of Ipiranga’s total investment budget, R$ 885 million refer to additions to property, plant, equipment and intangible assets, and R$ 2 million refer to financing to clients, net of repayments. Oxiteno plans to invest R$ 161 million in the expansion of its production capacity, mainly in the conclusion of the expansion in Coatzacoalcos, in Mexico, and in the potential expansion in Pasadena, in the United States. The expansion in Mexico is planned to be operational by 2014 and will add 30,000 tons per year of production capacity. Additionally, Oxiteno will invest R$ 83 million in enhancing the productivity and in the maintenance of its plants and IT systems. Ultracargo will invest mainly in the modernization, adjustment and maintenance of the infrastructure of its terminals and in the potential expansion of the Itaqui terminal, which is planned to start operating in 2015. At Ultragaz, investments will be focused mainly (i) on the construction of a filling plant in São Luis, in the state of Maranhão, (ii) on UltraSystem (small bulk), due to the perspective of capturing new clients and (iii) on the replacement and purchase of LPG bottles. At Extrafarma, investments will be directed to the opening of approximately 70 new drugstores, to the expansion of its infrastructure and to the maintenance of its activities.

Executive summary of the results

The more challenging macroeconomic environment in the first quarters of the year continued into the fourth quarter, contributing to the increase in the base interest rate, which was raised from 9.0% p.a. in late September to 10.0% p.a. in late November, and for the maintenance of a weaker Real against the dollar during 4Q13, with an average exchange rate of R$ 2.28/US$ in 4Q13 compared to R$ 2.06/US$ in 4Q12. The number of light vehicles licensed in 4Q13 reached approximately 940 thousand, totaling 3.6 million vehicles licensed in 2013, in line with 2012 figures, which allowed another year of approximately 7% growth in the fleet.
 
In 4Q13, Ultragaz reported a growth of 2% in sales volume compared to 4Q12, driven by a 3% increase in the bulk segment, mainly due to investments to capture new customers, such as the residential and small- and medium-sized companies segments. In 4Q13, Ultragaz’s EBITDA increased by 16% compared to 4Q12, thus showing the continuity of the company's earnings recovery plan, mainly as a result of commercial initiatives implemented over the last quarters and increased sales volume.
 
At Ipiranga, fuel sales volume grew by 7% in 4Q13 compared to 4Q12, boosted mainly by significant investments made in expanding the distribution network (conversion of unbranded service stations and opening of new service stations) and related logistics infrastructure and the growth in the light vehicle fleet. Ipiranga’s EBITDA ex-non-recurring expenses reached R$ 570 million, up 14% over 4Q12, mainly due to increased sales volume, improved sales mix with greater share of the reseller segment (sales at service stations), the strategy of constant innovation in services and convenience at the service station, generating greater customer satisfaction and loyalty, and initiatives to reduce informality, such as the full charge of PIS/Cofins taxes on the ethanol chain at the producer and the conversion of unbranded service stations.
 
At Oxiteno, the sales volume reached 179 thousand tons, down 4% compared to 4Q12, mainly due to lower sales of glycols, partially offset by increased sales of specialty chemicals, which were made possible by investments in capacity expansion implemented in recent years. Oxiteno’s EBITDA totaled R$ 107 million in 4Q13, or US$ 263/ton, up 47% over 4Q12, mainly as a result of the 11% weaker Real and a more favorable sales mix in 4Q13.
 
At Ultracargo, the average storage grew by 9% compared to 4Q12, mainly as a result of the increase in product handling in the Suape and Aratu terminals. Ultracargo’s EBITDA reached 38 million in 4Q13, up 6% over 4Q12.
 
Ultrapar reported consolidated EBITDA of R$ 834 million in 4Q13, up 22% compared to 4Q12, as a result of the EBITDA growth in all businesses. Net earnings for 4Q13 reached R$ 371 million, an increase of 20% over 4Q12, due to the EBITDA growth.

Operational Performance

Ultragaz – In 4Q13, Ultragaz’s sales volume reached 422 thousand tons, up 2% over 4Q12, driven by the 3% growth in the bulk segment, as a consequence of investments made to capture new customers, especially in the residential and small- and medium-sized companies segments. Compared with 3Q13, sales volume decreased by 6%, mainly due to seasonality between periods. In 2013, Ultragaz totaled a sales volume of 1,696 thousand tons, up 1% over 2012.


 
Ipiranga – Ipiranga's sales volume totaled 6,563 thousand cubic meters in 4Q13, 7% above 4Q12 volume. In 4Q13, sales volume of fuels for light vehicles (Otto cycle) increased by 9%, driven by the growth in the vehicle fleet and significant investments made in Ipiranga’s network expansion. Diesel volume increased by 5% over 4Q12, as a result of investments made in network expansion and the economic growth. Compared with 3Q13, sales volume increased by 1%. In 2013, Ipiranga's sales volume totaled 24,758 thousand cubic meters, a growth of 6% over 2012.


Oxiteno Oxiteno’s sales volume in 4Q13 totaled 179 thousand tons, with a growth of 6% (10 thousand tons) in specialty chemicals compared to 4Q12. The volume of specialty chemicals in the Brazilian market increased by 5% (6 thousand tons), about 2 times the GDP growth estimated for the year. In the foreign market, the 8% (4 thousand tons) growth in specialty chemicals was due to the acquisition of the specialty chemicals plant in Uruguay in November 2012. This growth was offset by lower sales of glycols (a reduction of 17 thousand tons). Thus, Oxiteno’s sales volume in 4Q13 decreased by 4% from 4Q12, although with a more favorable sales mix. Compared with 3Q13, sales volume decreased by 7% (14 thousand tons), mainly due to seasonally lower volumes for some specialties and the scheduled stoppage at the Camaçari petrochemical complex in October 2013. Oxiteno’s sales volume in 2013 totaled 776 thousand tons, a growth of 2% over 2012, with a highlight in the 8% growth in the sales of specialty chemicals.

Outlook

Ultrapar should continue to reap the benefits of investments made in expanding its businesses, in addition to the initiatives for differentiation and to establish a closer relationship with customers. At Ipiranga, strong and consistent investments in expanding the service station network and related logistics infrastructure, focused on the North, Northeast and Midwest regions of Brazil, will continue to leverage the benefits from the growth of the vehicle fleet in Brazil and the reduction of grey market. Additionally, the company will proceed with its differentiation initiatives, based on increasing the offer of products, services and convenience, to further expand the number of increasingly satisfied and loyal consumers. At Ultragaz, the benefits from recent investments in capturing new customers and the continued focus on managing costs and expenses will contribute to continue its growth. Oxiteno will keep the focus on innovation, with the development of new products, and will act to maximize the benefits from the ramp up of investments in production capacity expansion in Brazil, in a more favorable exchange rate scenario. Additionally, the company will continue the consolidation of its international expansion plan. Ultracargo, in turn, will continue to focus on the benefits generated by the expansion of existing terminals and will keep attentive to opportunities from the growing demand for liquid bulk storage in Brazil, which includes evaluating expansions and participating in bidding processes that are expected to take place in 2014. In 2014, Ultrapar will incorporate the Extrafarma drugstore chain into its activities, focusing on integrating the new business and detailing the accelerated expansion plan, which should be developed more intensively from 2015 onwards.
