Report of independent registered public accounting firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Vale S.A.

Rio de Janeiro - RJ

 

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Vale S.A. (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2016 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and the condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity for the three-month period ended on March 31, 2016 and 2015. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

 

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an audit opinion.

 

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modification that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

 

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Vale S.A. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and in our report dated February 24, 2016, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in th accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Selected Notes to the Interim Financial Statements

Expressed in millions of United States dollar, unless otherwise stated

 

1.                                      Corporate information

 

Vale S.A. (the “Parent Company”) is a public company headquartered at 700, Avenida das Américas, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with securities traded on the stock exchanges of São Paulo - BM&F BOVESPA (Vale3 and Vale5), New York - NYSE (VALE and VALE.P), Paris - NYSE Euronext (Vale3 and Vale5) and Hong Kong - HKEx (codes 6210 and 6230).

 

Vale and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (“Vale”, “Group” or “Company”) are producers of iron ore and iron ore pellets, key raw materials for steelmaking, and producers of nickel, which is used to produce stainless steel and metal alloys employed in the production of several products. The Group also produces copper, metallurgical and thermal coal, potash, phosphates and other fertilizer nutrients, manganese ore, ferroalloys, platinum group metals, gold, silver and cobalt. The information by segment is presented in note 3.

 

2.                                      Basis for preparation of the interim financial statements

 

a)        Statement of compliance

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company (“interim financial statements”) present the accounts of the Group, and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

 

b)        Basis of presentation

 

The interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as adjusted to reflect: (i) the fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value through income statement or available-for-sale financial instruments measured at fair value through the statement of comprehensive income; and (ii) impairment of assets.

 

The accounting practices, accounting estimates and judgments, risk management and measurement methods are the same as those adopted when preparing the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015. These interim financial statements were prepared to update users about relevant information presented in the period and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

The interim financial statements of the Group and its associates and joint ventures are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (“functional currency”). In the case of the Parent Company the functional currency is the Brazilian real (“BRL” or “R$”). For presentation purposes, these interim financial statements are presented in United States dollar (“USD” or “US$”) as the Company believes that this is how international investors analyze the financial statements.

 

The exchange rates used by the Group for major currencies to translate its operations are as follows:

4.                                      Relevant event — Dam failure at Samarco Mineração S.A. (“Samarco”)

 

On November 5, 2015, Samarco experienced the failure of an iron ore tailings dam (Fundão) in the state of Minas Gerais - Brazil, which affected communities and ecosystems, including the Rio Doce river.

 

Following the dam failure, the state government of Minas Gerais ordered the suspension of Samarco’s operations.

 

Samarco and its shareholders, Vale and BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda. (“BHPB”), entered into a settlement agreement on March 2, 2016 with the federal Attorney General of Brazil, the two Brazilian states affected by the failure (Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais) and certain other parties. The settlement agreement, which includes no admission of civil, criminal or administrative liability for the Fundão dam failure, is expected to resolve the lawsuit brought in Brazilian courts by several Brazilian governmental authorities. The settlement agreement is already effective, though the resolution of claims pursuant to the agreement remains subject to judicial approval. There is no assurance as to whether and when the court will approve the resolution of claims.  The term of the agreement is 15 years, renewable for successive one-year periods until all obligations under the agreement have been performed.

 

Under the settlement agreement, Samarco, Vale and BHPB will establish a foundation to develop and implement remediation programs to restore the environment, local communities and the social condition of the affected areas, as well as compensation programs.

 

Samarco has agreed to provide funding to the foundation in the amount of R$2.0 billion (US$562) in 2016, R$1.2 billion (US$337) in 2017 and R$1.2 billion (US$337) in 2018. Amounts that Samarco has already spent on remediation and compensation will be applied towards its funding obligations.  From 2019 to 2021, Samarco has agreed to provide funding based on the amounts needed to complete remaining remediation and compensation projects, subject to an annual minimum of R$800 (US$225) and an annual maximum of R$1.6 billion (US$450).  The foundation will allocate an annual amount of R$240 (US$67) over 15 years to the implementation of compensation programs, and these annual amounts are included in the annual contributions described above for the first six years. Through the end of 2018, the foundation will also set aside R$500 (US$140) for basic sanitation in the affected areas.

 

To comply with the settlement agreement, Samarco will continue to conduct and fund the humanitarian and environmental recovery and compensation works until the foundation is operational, which is likely to occur before the end of 2016.

 

Samarco is currently unable to conduct ordinary mining and processing. Samarco’s management is working on a plan that would permit it to resume operations, but the feasibility, timing and scope of restarting remain uncertain.

 

To the extent of Samarco does not meet its funding obligations in the foundation, each of Vale and BHPB is liable, under the terms of the agreement, to provide funds to the foundation in proportion to its 50% interest in Samarco.

 

Samarco and its shareholders expect that Samarco will be able to generate all or a substantial part of the funding required under the arrangement. Therefore, Samarco’s future cash flow projections require the use of critical estimates and assumptions in their preparation, including but not limited to: (i) judicial approval of the agreement; (ii) the release of certain escrow accounts in connection with judicial proceedings in progress; (iii) the resumption of operations within a reasonable period of time; and (iv) the management of debt held by Samarco with financial institutions and bond holders.

 

Until new facts and circumstances are available and the referred uncertainties are reduced, it is not possible to estimate or reliably measure whether Vale will be required to provide the contributions to Samarco to comply with the agreement or to provide guarantees of its other obligations. Therefore, no provision was recognized in the Company´s interim financial statements as of March 31, 2016.

 

In addition, Samarco and its shareholders are named as a defendant in several other lawsuits brought by individuals, corporations and governmental entities seeking damages for personal injury, wrongful death, commercial or economic injury, breach of contract and violations of statutes. Because these pending lawsuits are at the very early stages, it is not possible to determine a range of outcomes or reliable estimates of the potential exposure at this time. Therefore, no provision has been recognized and no contingent liability has been quantified

 

The Company will reassess each reporting period the key assumptions used in Samarco´s cash flow and any impact identified and related to this matter will be reflect in its financial statements.

5.                                      Assets held for sale

 

a)        Coal - Nacala logistic corridor (“Nacala”)

 

As at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, assets held for sale refers to Nacala logistic corridor (“Nacala”).

 

In December 2014, the Company signed an agreement with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (“Mitsui”) to sell 50% of its stake of 70% in the Nacala corridor. Nacala is a combination of railroad and port concessions under construction located in Mozambique and Malawi. After completion of the transaction, Vale will share control of Nacala with Mitsui and therefore will not consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of those entities. The assets and liabilities were classified as assets held for sale with no impact in the income statement. As at March 2016, completion of the transaction remains dependent upon certain conditions. The Company remains committed to its plan to sell its 50% interest.

(i) Refers to Aliança Geração transaction, see note 6.

 

In April 2016 (subsequent events), the Company announced the sale of its 26.87% interest at Thyssenkrupp Companhia Siderúrgica do Atlântico Ltd for a symbolic amount.  The transaction will result in US$92 loss on recycling the “Cumulative translation adjustments”.

 

The Company indirectly holds a 4.6% interest in Norte Energia S.A. (through Aliança Norte Energia Participações S.A.), and the Company’s investment and equity results as of March 31, 2016, are respectively US$110 and US$(2). The independent auditor’s opinion on the Norte Energia financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, was qualified due to an investigation related to possible breaches of law and regulation that had not been completed when the mentioned the opinion was issued. Vale believes that the auditor’s qualification has no quantitative or qualitative impact on its interim financial information as of March 31, 2016.

i - Tax litigation - The most significant claims relate to pending challenges by the Brazilian federal tax authority concerning the deductibility of Brazilian social contribution payments for income tax purposes and demands by Brazilian state tax authorities for additional payments of the value-added tax on services and circulation of goods (“ICMS”) in relation to the use of ICMS credits from sales and energy transmission. The change in the period is basically a new tax enforcement on services and circulation of goods (“ICMS”) and Tax on services of any nature (“ISS).

 

ii - Civil litigation - Most of these claim have been filed by suppliers for indemnification under construction contracts, primarily relating to certain alleged damages, payments and contractual penalties. A number of other claims involve disputed contractual terms for inflation indexation.

 

iii - Labor litigation - These line represent a very large number of individual claims by (i) employees and service providers, primarily involving demands for additional compensation for overtime work, time spent commuting or health and safety conditions; and (ii) the Brazilian federal social security administration (“INSS”) regarding contributions on compensation programs based on profits.

 

iv - Environmental litigation - The most significant claims concern alleged procedural deficiencies in licensing processes, non-compliance with existing environmental licenses or damage to the environment.

 

c)         Judicial deposits

 

In addition to the provisions and contingent liabilities, the Company is required by law to make judicial deposits to secure a potential adverse outcome of certain lawsuits. These court-ordered deposits are monetarily adjusted and reported as non-current assets until a judicial decision to draw the deposit occurs.

d)        Others

 

i - Samarco – Vale S.A. and certain of its officers have been named as defendants in putative securities class action suits in federal court in New York brought by holders of Vale’s securities under U.S. federal securities laws. The lawsuits allege that Vale made false and misleading statements or omitted to make disclosures concerning the risks and dangers of the operations of Samarco’s Fundão dam and the adequacy of related programs and security procedures. The plaintiffs have not specified an amount of alleged damages in these actions. Vale intends to vigorously defend these actions and mount a full defense against the allegations, considering they do not represent true facts and therefore lack legal foundation. The litigation is at a very early stage. On March 7, 2016, the judge overseeing the putative securities class actions issued an order consolidating these actions and designating lead plaintiffs and counsel. The judge has given lead plaintiffs until April 29, 2016 to file a consolidated amended complaint that will serve as the operative complaint in the litigation. As a consequence of the preliminary nature of these suits, it is not possible to determine a range of outcomes or reliable estimates of the potential exposure at this time, and no provision has been recognized.

 

ii - Compulsory deposits - In the third quarter of 2015, the Company filed an enforceable action in the amount of R$524 (US$147) referring to the final court decision in favor of the Company of the accrued interest of compulsory deposits from 1987 to 1993. Currently it is not possible to estimate the economic benefit inflow as the counterparty can appeal on the calculation. Consequently, the asset was not recognized in the financial statements.

Additional information about derivatives financial instruments

 

The risk of the derivatives portfolio is measured using the delta-Normal parametric approach, and considers that the future distribution of the risk factors and its correlations tends to present the same statistic properties verified in the historical data. The value at risk estimate considers a 95% confidence level for a one-business day time horizon.

 

There was no cash amount deposited as margin call regarding derivative positions on March 31, 2016. The derivative positions described in this document did not have initial costs associated.

 

The following tables detail the derivatives positions for Vale and its controlled companies as of March 31, 2016, with the following information: notional amount, fair value including credit risk, gains or losses in the period, value at risk and the fair value breakdown by year of maturity.

 

a)                                     Foreign exchange and interest rates derivative positions

 

(i)                                    Protection programs for the R$ denominated debt instruments

 

In order to reduce cash flow volatility, swap transactions were implemented to convert into US$ the cash flows from certain debt instruments denominated in R$ with interest rates linked mainly to CDI, TJLP and IPCA. In those swaps, Vale pays fixed or floating rates in US$ and receives payments in R$ linked to the interest rates of the protected debt instruments.

 

The swap transactions were negotiated over-the-counter and the protected items are the cash flows from debt instruments linked to R$. These programs transform into US$ the obligations linked to R$ to achieve a currency offset in the Company’s cash flows, by matching its receivables - mainly linked to US$ - with its payables.

In order to reduce the cash flow volatility, swap and forward transactions were implemented to convert into US$ the cash flows from certain debt instruments issued in Euros by Vale. In those swaps, Vale receives fixed rates in EUR and pays fixed rates in US$. And in those forwards only the principal amount of the debt is converted from EUR to US$.

 

The swap and forward transactions were negotiated over-the-counter and the protected items are the cash flows from debt instruments linked to EUR. The financial settlement inflows/outflows are offset by the protected items’ losses/gains due to EUR/US$ exchange rate.

(iii)         Foreign exchange hedging program for disbursements in CAD

 

In order to reduce the cash flow volatility, forward transactions were implemented to mitigate the foreign exchange exposure that arises from the currency mismatch between revenues denominated in US$ and disbursements denominated in CAD.

 

The forward transactions were negotiated over-the-counter and the protected item is part of the CAD denominated disbursements. The financial settlement inflows/outflows are offset by the protected items’ losses/gains due to CAD/US$ exchange rate. This program is classified under the hedge accounting requirements, and it was settled in this quarter.

In order to reduce the impact of bunker oil price fluctuation on maritime freight hiring/supply and, consequently, reducing the company’s cash flow volatility, bunker oil derivatives were implemented. These transactions are usually executed through forward purchases and zero cost-collars.

 

The derivative transactions were negotiated over-the-counter and the protected item is part of the Vale’s costs linked to bunker oil prices. The financial settlement inflows/outflows are offset by the protected items’ losses/gains due to bunker oil prices changes.

(ii)           Protection programs for base metals raw materials and products

 

In the operational protection program for nickel sales at fixed prices, derivatives transactions were implemented to convert into floating prices the contracts with clients that required a fixed price, in order to keep nickel revenues exposed to nickel price fluctuations. Those operations are usually implemented through the purchase of nickel forwards, which are unwound before the original maturity in order to match the settlement dates of the commercial contracts in which the prices were fixed.

 

In the operational protection program for the purchase of raw materials and products, derivatives transactions were implemented, usually through the sale of nickel and copper forward or futures, in order to reduce the mismatch between the pricing period of purchases (concentrate, cathode, sinter, scrap and others) and the pricing period of the final product sales to the clients.

 

The derivative transactions are negotiated at London Metal Exchange or over-the-counter and the protected item is part of Vale’s revenues and costs linked to nickel and copper prices. The financial settlement inflows/outflows are offset by the protected items’ losses/gains due to nickel and copper prices changes.

23.                               Deferred revenue - Gold stream

 

In 2013 and 2015, the Company entered into gold stream transactions with Silver Wheaton Corp. (“SLW”) to sell part of the gold extracted during the life of the mine as a by-product of Salobo copper mine and Sudbury nickel mines. The Company received up-front cash proceeds, which were initially recognized as deferred revenue. This transaction was bifurcated into two identifiable components: (i) the sale of the mineral rights and, (ii) the services for gold extraction on the portion in which Vale operates as an agent for SLW gold extraction.

 

In 2015, the result of the sale of the mineral rights of US$230 was recognized in the income statement of 2015 as other operating expenses, net and the portion related to the provision of future services for gold extraction was recorded as deferred revenue (liability) in the amount of US$532. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized in income statement US$34 and US$15, respectively, related to rendered services of the gold extraction.

 

24.                               Commitments

 

a)        Base metals operations — In March 2016, Vale Canada Limited purchased the equity interest held by Sumic Nickel Netherland B.V. in Vale Nouvelle-Calédonie S.A.S. for US$135.

 

There have been no other material changes to the commitments of the base metals operations disclosed in the financial statements as at December 31, 2015, except for letters of credit and guarantees in the amount of US$1,030 (US$991 at December 31, 2015) associated with items such as environment reclamation, asset retirement obligation commitments, insurance, electricity commitments, post-retirement benefits, community service commitments and import and export duties.

 

b)        Participative stockholders’ debentures - The Company paid as semiannual remuneration the amount of US$39 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015. At April 1st, 2016 (subsequently event), the company has paid the semiannual remuneration to stockholders debentures the amount of US$36.

d)   Guarantees provided - At March 31, 2016, corporate guarantees provided by Vale (within the limit of its direct or indirect interest) for the companies Norte Energia S.A. and Companhia Siderúrgica do Pecém S.A. totaled US$309 and US$1,249, respectively. Due to the conclusion of the energy generation assets transaction (note 6), the guarantee of Norte Energia S.A. is shared with Cemig GT.

 

25.          Related parties

 

Transactions with related parties are made by the Company at arm´s-length, observing the price and usual market conditions and therefore do not generate any undue benefit to their counterparties or loss to the Company.

 

In the normal course of operations, Vale enters into contracts with related parties (subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures and stockholders), related to the sale and purchase of products and services, loans, leasing of assets, sale of raw material and railway transportation services.
