3. Summary of main accounting practices

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

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

25


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

a) Determination of income

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

b) Translation of foreign currency-denominated balances

(i) Functional and presentation currency of the quarterly information

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

(ii) Foreign currency-denominated transactions

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

c) Financial instruments

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

26


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

c) Financial instruments (Continued)

(i) Financial assets

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

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

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

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

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

(ii) Financial liabilities

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

27


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

c) Financial instruments (Continued)

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

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

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

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

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

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

28


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

c) Financial instruments (Continued)

fair value hedge: the derivative financial instruments destined to offset risks deriving from the exposure to variation in fair value of item purpose of hedge should be classified. The items purpose of hedge and related derivative financial instruments are recorded against proper revenue or expense account in the net income for the period.

d) Cash and cash equivalents

These include cash, positive balances in checking account, marketable securities redeemable within 90 days of balance sheets dates, as per Company’s policy and with insignificant change in their market value. Marketable securities included in cash and cash equivalents are classified into the “financial assets at fair value through income” category. The opening of these marketable securities by counterparty is stated in Note 4.

e) Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at estimated realizable values. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided in an amount considered by Management to be sufficient to meet probable future losses related to uncollectible accounts.

The setting up of provision is mainly based on the historic average of losses, in addition to specific accounts receivable deemed as uncollectible. The Company’s installment sales occur with the intermediation of FIC and financing receivables not remaining in GPA (Note 10 (d)).

The Company carries out securitization operations of the accounts receivable with a special purpose entity, over which it has shared control, the PAFIDC (Pão de Açúcar Fundo de Investimento em Direitos Creditórios) – (Note 5 (b) and Note 8).

Accounts receivable from commercial agreements result from bonuses and discounts from suppliers, which are established by agreements and mainly calculated over purchase volume, marketing initiatives, freight cost reimbursement, etc.

f) Inventories

Inventories are basically stated at the average cost or market value, whichever is shorter. Warehousing and handling costs are appropriated according to inventory turnover and the portion not absorbed is stated at the inventories value.

Inventories are also stated by the net value of allowance for losses and breakage, which are periodically reviewed and evaluated as to their sufficiency.

29


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

g) Investments

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

h) Property and equipment

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

Interest and financial charges on loans and financing obtained from third parties directly or indirectly attributable to the process of purchase, construction and operating expansion, are capitalized during the construction and refurbishment of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ stores in conformity with CVM Deliberation 193. The capitalized interest and financial charges are appropriated to income over the depreciation periods of the corresponding assets.

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance that do not significantly extend the useful lives of related assets are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that significantly extend the useful lives of existing facilities and equipment are added to the property and equipment value.

Until December 31, 2009, the Company will revaluate the estimates of economic-useful life of its property and equipment, used when determining their depreciation and amortization rates. Eventual changes in the estimate of economic-useful life of assets, deriving from this revaluation, if relevant, will be treated as change in accounting estimates to be recognized on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2009.

i) Leasing

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

30


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

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

j) Intangible assets

Goodwill generated in the acquisition of investments occurred until December 31, 2008, having future profitability as economic fundamental, was amortized on a straight-line basis for a term of 5 to 10 years until that date. As of January 1, 2009 it is no longer being amortized and should only be submitted to an annual test for impairment analysis.

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

k) Provision for recovery of assets

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

l) Other assets and liabilities

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

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

31


3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

m) Taxation

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

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

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

The taxation on income comprises the Corporate Income Tax (“IRPJ”) and Social Contribution on Net Income (“CSLL”), which are calculated based on taxable income (adjusted income), at rates applicable according to the prevailing laws – 15%, accrued of 10% over the amount exceeding R$240 yearly for IRPJ and 9% for CSLL.

Deferred IRPJ and CSLL assets are recorded under the item deferred IRPJ and CSLL from tax losses, negative basis of social contribution and temporary differences, taking into account the prevailing rates of said taxes, pursuant to the provisions of CVM Deliberation 273, as of August 20, 1998, CVM Ruling 371, as of June 27, 2002 and taking into account the history of profitability and the expectation of generating future taxable income based on a technical feasibility study, annually approved by the Board of Directors. The Company does not have governmental subsidies or assistance.

n) Share-based payment

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

o) Present value adjustment of assets and liabilities

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

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

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

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

p) Provision for contingencies

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

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

q) Statements of cash flows and statements of added value

The statements of cash flows are prepared and are reported pursuant to CVM Deliberation 547 of August 13, 2008 which approved the technical pronouncement CPC 03 – Statements of Cash Flows, issued by the Brazilian Committee on Accounting Pronouncements (CPC). The statements of added value are prepared and reported pursuant to CVM Deliberation 557 of November 12, 2008 which approved the technical pronouncement CPC 09 – Statement of Added Value, issued by CPC.

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

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

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

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

3. Summary of main accounting practices (Continued)

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

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

The capital structure of the fund, at June 30, 2009, is composed of 10,256 senior quotas, held by third parties in the amount of R$983,183, which represent 89.77% of the fund’s equity (90.15% at March 31, 2009) and 2,864 subordinated quotas, held by the Company and subsidiaries in the amount of R$112,033, which represent 10.23% of the fund’s equity (9.85% at March 31, 2009).

The net assets of PAFIDC are summarized as follows:

    6.30.2009    3.31.2009 
     
Assets         
   Cash and cash equivalents    73,773    60,795 
   Accounts receivable    1,039,606    1,016,339

            983,183         959,200 
           

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

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

(i) Novasoc – Novasoc has, currently, 16 lease agreements with Paes Mendonça with a five-year term, which may be extended twice for similar periods through notification to the leaseholder, with final maturity in 2014. During the term of the contract, the shareholders of Paes Mendonça cannot sell their shares without prior and express consent of Novasoc. The operating lease annual rental payments amounted to R$3,283 in the period ended June 30, 2009 (R$2,443 at June 30, 2008), including an additional contingent rental based on 0.5% to 2.5% of the stores revenues.

10. Investments (Continued)

Under Novasoc Bylaws, the distribution of its net income need not be proportional to the holding of each shareholder in the capital of the Company. As per members’ decision, the Company holds 99.98% of Novasoc’s results as of 2000.

At June 30, 2009, the subsidiary Novasoc recorded capital deficiency. With a view to the future operating continuity and economic feasibility of such subsidiary, assured by the parent company, the Company recorded R$4,643 (R$8,585 at March 31, 2009), under “Provision for investment losses” to recognize its obligations before creditors.

(ii) Sé – Sé holds direct interest in Miravalles corresponding to 50% of capital stock, which indirectly represents the investment in FIC.

(iii) Sendas Distribuidora – At October 16, 2008, GPA started the cash and carry operations in the state of Rio de Janeiro with Assai brand through Xantocarpa.

(iv) Barcelona – At November 1, 2007, GPA, by means of subsidiary company controlled by Sé (Sevilha), acquired shares representing 60% of the total and voting capital of Barcelona, a recipient company of Assai’s spun-off assets related to the activities previously carried out by Assai in the wholesale market of the food industry by the amount of R$208,504, originating a R$206,068 goodwill recorded in the subsidiary Sevilha.

For non-controlling shareholders holding 40% interest in Barcelona, a shareholders’ agreement was entered into that established a put and call option of such interest, under conditions based on sales multiples and EBITDA, or the price paid per share for the 60% restated original amounts.

The Company did not record this option, since it is classified into the exception provided for in paragraph 2 (g) of CPC 14. Management will monitor the development of CPC 15 and the second phase of financial instruments during 2009. At July 8, 2009, the parties signed heads of agreement in which they assumed the purchase and sale commitment of remaining 40% interest of Barcelona by the Company (Note 25).

c) Investment agreement – Company and Sendas

At January 5, 2007, Sendas S.A exercised the put option held on its 42.57% interest in Sendas Distribuidora, according to the clause 6.9.1 of the shareholders’ agreement of Sendas Distribuidora. Parties have not reached an agreement yet on the terms of effective put option or the condition of payment and related amounts.

d) Investment agreement – the Company and Itaú

Miravalles, set up in July 2004, which owns the exploitation rights of the Company’s financial activities, with capital subscribed and paid-up by the Company and Itaú at the ratio of 50% creates Financeira Itaú S.A. (“FIC”), a company which operates in structuring and commercialization of financial products exclusively to GPA’s customers.

The agreement initially executed upon “FIC” organization was amended on December 22, 2005, modifying the terms related to the compliance with performance targets, firstly established between the Company, Itaú and FIC, without any connection between the fulfillment of targets and the overdraft account; fines were established for the non-compliance with said targets.

This partnership is effective for 20 years and may be extended for an indeterminate term. The operational management of FIC is under the responsibility of Itaú.

In the period ended June 30, 2009, total investments and equity pickup of said investee represent 1.0% and 2.5%, respectively, in relation to the total assets and net income recorded in the Company’s consolidated quarterly information (0.9% and 4.8% on March 31, 2009, respectively).

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

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

The recoverability test of the Company’s intangible assets carried out at December 31, 2008 did not require the recognition of losses, since the estimated usage value exceeds its net book value on the valuation date. At June 30, 2009, the Company’s Management did not identify material changes in assumptions and data used in the assessment made in the previous quarter-end.

The Company uses swap operations to convert U.S. dollar-denominated, yen-denominated obligations and fixed interest rate to Brazilian reais pegged to CDI (floating) interest rate. The Company concurrently executed with the same counterparty currency and interest rates swaps operations.

CDI annual benchmark rate at June 30, 2009 stood at 12.32% (12.72% at March 31, 2009).

b) BNDES credit line

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

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

(*) Loans and derivative financial instruments classified as fair value hedge are recorded by fair value.

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

a) Considerations on risk factors that may affect the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.

(i) Credit risk

(ii) Interest rate risk

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

52


14. Financial instruments (Continued)

(iii) Exchange rate risk

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

(iv) Derivative financial instruments

The Company designates part of swap agreements as fair value hedge of a portion of foreign currency-denominated debts (U.S. dollar and Japanese yen) to domestic interest rates (CDI). These agreements amounted to a benchmark value of R$741,703, at June 30, 2009 (R$ 743,805 at March 31, 2009). The contracting of these instruments is made within same terms of financing agreement and preferably with the same financial institution and within the limits approved by Management.

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

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

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

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

Gains and losses, realized and unrealized, on these agreements are recorded in the net financial income and the balance receivable or payable in the fair value of R$(72,697) is recorded in “loans and financing” (R$ 94,542 at March 31, 2009).

The effects of fair value hedge to the net income for the period stood at R$(167,195) and R$(12,203) at June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

Other instruments marked at fair value showed effects of R$4,693 and R$2,123 on net income at June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

(v) Fair values of derivative financial instruments

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

54


14. Financial instruments (Continued)

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

b) Analysis of sensitivity of derivative financial instruments

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

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

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

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

Net effect            (38,268)   (77,415)
         

The Company’s net exposure corresponds to CDI-related debt and the total net effect represents the deterioration of scenario II at R$38,268 and of scenario III at R$77,415 in relation to scenario I, which the Company considers as the most probable scenario.

(ii) Measured at fair value through income

Operations    Risk    Scenario I    Scenario II    Scenario III 
         
 
Swap (long position in USD)   USD decrease    4,575    3,502    2,381

Swap (short position in CDI)   CDI increase    (1,018,636)   (1,069,989)   (1,120,779)
         
    net effect    647    (1,786)   (4,218)
         
 
         
Total net effect        (5,097)   (8,664)   (12,279)
         

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

Sensitivity assumptions

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

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

a) Taxes

Tax-related contingencies are indexed to the Central Bank Overnight Rate (“SELIC”), 12.32% at June 30, 2009 (12.72% at March 31, 2009), and are subject, when applicable, to fines. In all cases, both interest charges and fines, when applicable, have been computed with respect to unpaid amounts and are fully accrued.

COFINS and PIS

The Company and its subsidiaries discuss the constitutionality of the change in the basis of taxation of the Social Integration Tax (PIS) and the increase in the rate and basis of calculation of the Social Security Tax (COFINS) (Law 9,718/99). The provision includes unpaid amounts, monetarily restated, at June 30, 2009, amounting to R$1,077,338 (R$1,063,110 at March 31, 2009) resulting from the lawsuits awaiting decision of the Higher Courts, and up to this moment, the Company has not been required to make judicial deposits.

As the calculation system of such contributions started to use the non-cumulative tax principle in the calculation of PIS (Law 10,637/02) and COFINS (Law 10,833/03), the Company and its subsidiaries then started to apply said rules, as well as, to question with the Judiciary Branch, the extension of tax base of such contributions, as well as the appropriation of credits not accepted by laws. The provision recorded in the balance sheet at June 30, 2009 in the amount of R$186,984(R$180,490 at March 31, 2009) includes the unpaid installment,

58


16. Provision for contingencies (Continued)

monetarily restated. There are guarantees for these discussions in order to ensure the suspension of liabilities, judicial deposit amounting to R$133,890.

The contingencies amount related to Cofins and PIS, net of judicial deposit is R$1,130,432.

Other

The Company and its subsidiaries have other tax contingencies, which after analysis of its legal counsels, were deemed as probable losses or as issues likely to be booked pursuant to CVM regulation. These are: IPI on codfish imports, for which it already has a deposit, notice regarding differences in the indices used (“Summer Plan”), IRRF and INSS notices, as well as notices related to purchase, manufacturing and sale transactions for export purposes of soybean and its byproducts (PIS, COFINS and IRPJ). The amount recorded at June 30, 2009 in accounting books for such issues is R$34,913 (R$34,365 at March 31, 2009), and a judicial deposit of R$2,030 (R$2,040 at March 31, 2009 and June 5, 2009). The contingencies amount for OTHER, net of Judicial Deposit is R$32,833.

b) Labor claims

The Company is party to numerous lawsuits involving disputes with its employees, primarily arising from layoffs in the ordinary course of business. At June 30, 2009, the Company recorded a provision of R$50,237 (R$53,830 at March 31, 2009) assessed as probable risk. Lawsuits the loss of which is deemed as possible by our legal counsels at June 30, 2009 are R$24,271 (R$15,396 at March 31, 2009). Management, assisted by its legal counsels, evaluates these contingencies and provides for losses where reasonably estimable, bearing in mind previous experiences in relation to the amounts sought. Labor claims are indexed to the Referential Interest Rate (“TR”) (0.53% accumulated in the year ended June 30, 2009) plus 1% monthly interest. The contingencies amount for Labor, net of Judicial Deposit is R$118 (R$4 in 2008).

c) Civil and other

The Company is a defendant, at several judicial levels, in lawsuits of civil nature, among others. The Company’s Management sets up provisions in amounts considered sufficient to cover unfavorable court decisions when its internal and external legal counsels consider losses to be probable.

16. Provision for contingencies (Continued)

Among these lawsuits, we point out the following:

16. Provision for Contingencies (Continued)

d) Possible losses

The Company has other contingencies which have been analyzed by the legal counsel and deemed as possible but not probable; therefore, have not been accrued, at June 30, 2009, as follows:

61


16. Provision for contingencies (Continued)

d) Possible losses (continued)

Occasional adverse changes in the expectation of risk of the referred lawsuits may require that additional provision for contingencies be set up.

e) Appeal and judicial deposits

The Company is challenging the payment of certain taxes, contributions and labor-related obligations and has made court escrow deposits (restricted deposits) of equivalent amounts pending final legal decisions, in addition to collateral deposits related to provisions for lawsuits.

The Company registered in its assets amounts related to judicial deposits not linked to Company’s liability contingencies, since they are classified as remote/possible, not subject to provision.

f) Guarantees

The Company has granted collaterals to some lawsuits of civil, labor and tax nature, as shown below:

At June 30, 2009, the program amounted to 369,600 repurchased preferred shares.

66


18. Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

b) Share rights

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

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

c) Capital reserve – Special goodwill reserve

This reserve was set up as a result of the corporate restructuring process outlined in Note 17 b(ii), against the merged net assets and represents the amount of future tax benefit to be earned by means of amortization of goodwill merged. The special reserve portion corresponding to the benefit earned may be capitalized at the end of each fiscal year to the benefit of the controlling shareholder, with the issue of new shares. The capital increase will be subject to the preemptive right of non-controlling shareholders, in the proportion of their respective interest, by type and class, at the time of the issue, and the amounts paid in the year related to such right will be directly delivered to the controlling shareholder, pursuant to provision in CVM Ruling 319/99 and CVM 349/01.

At December 31, 2006, the tax benefit recorded derived from the goodwill merged from Vieri amounted to R$517,294, which will be used in the capital increase, upon the realization of reserve.

d) Recognized granted options

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

67


18. Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

e) Revenue reserve

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

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

f) Preferred stock option plan

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

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

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

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


where:

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

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

Pm = Company share market price on the exercise date.

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

68


18. Shareholders’ equity (Continued)

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

New preferred stock option plan

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

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

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

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

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

The series of previous plan continue in force until the respective maturity dates.

A material fact was published on July 10, 2009, announcing that the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the shares of Rodolfo Junji Nagai and Luiz Fumikazu Kogachi, representing 40% of the total and voting capital of Barcelona Comércio Varejista e Atacadista S.A. (“Barcelona”), its subsidiary which operates the brand “Assai”, thus, consolidating the interest acquired in the wholesale cash and carry food business published in the material fact dated November 2, 2007.

For the acquisition of the interest mentioned above, the Company will pay to the sellers the amount of R$175 million in three installments: first installment in the amount of R$25 million, 10 days after executing the share purchase and sale agreement; the second installment in the amount of R$25 million on December 15, 2009; and the third and last installment, in the amount of R$125 million on January 15, 2011.

80


25. Subsequent Events (Continued)

Should few additional conditions agreed upon the parties be materialized, the Company will pay to the sellers on January 15, 2011 an additional amount of R$25 million.

The aforementioned amounts will be adjusted by CDI variation from the execution date of the share purchase and sale agreement until the date of their effective payment.

Once concluded the operation, Barcelona’s shareholders agreement, executed with the sellers of shares acquired by the Company, will no longer be effective.

The conclusion of this operation will be subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors and shareholders, pursuant to the Company’s Bylaws.

d) Dividends

On July 3, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of a new dividends policy, which alters the frequency of payment of dividends, which now occurs quarterly and no longer on an annual basis. In addition, the payment of dividends for 2009 was advanced, whose calculation was based on the amount of dividends paid in 2008.

The calculation basis of prepaid dividends for 2009 considered the amount of R$61.9 million, the same amount paid in 2008, which will be distributed in four (4) installments of R$15.5 million. In the last prepaid dividends of 2009 (4Q09), i.e., after the end of the fiscal year and the approval of the corresponding financial statements, the Company will pay the minimum mandatory dividend to its shareholders calculated in accordance with the Brazilian Corporation law, less the dividends payment advanced during the fiscal year.

Thus, dividends related to the 1Q09 and 2Q09, in the amount of R$30.9 million will be exceptionally prepaid jointly in the 2Q09. The amount to be paid will be R$0.12326 per common share and R$0.13558 per preferred share. The dividends prepayment will occur within 15 days as of the Board of Directors meeting.

12.01 - COMMENTS ON THE CONSOLIDATED PERFORMANCE DURING THE QUARTER


Operating Performance 

The numbers related to the Group’s operating performance presented and commented on below refer to the consolidated figures, which include the entire operating results of Sendas Distribuidora (a joint venture with the Sendas chain in Rio de Janeiro) and Assai (a joint venture with Atacadista Assai in São Paulo).

The consolidated figures do not yet include the acquisition of Ponto Frio (Globex), which was approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting of Grupo Pão de Açúcar on July 6, 2009, when the Group took over the chain’s operations.

Thanks to this acquisition, Grupo Pão de Açúcar is now one of the country’s leading retailers in the electronics/household appliance segment, with operations in 18 states and the Federal District. Since the day on which the takeover was announced, teams comprising staff from both firms have been working together, evaluating opportunities for existing synergies. A new Ponto Frio executive board was also set up to streamline the integration of the two companies, comprising Jorge Herzog (Ponto Frio’s CEO), Orivaldo Padilha (CFO, IRO and IT Officer), Marise Araujo (Chief Commercial Officer) and Antonio Machado Teixeira Filho (Chief Operating Officer).

In addition, on July 10, 2009, Grupo Pão de Açúcar acquired the remaining 40% stake of total and voting capital of Barcelona Comércio Varejista e Atacadista S.A., which operates the Assai format, consolidating the stake it acquired in the self-service wholesale business on November 2, 2007.

The figures below also include the accounting changes introduced by Law 11.638/07, except where otherwise indicated. The first-half information also includes comments on the pro-forma results, which exclude restructuring costs of R$ 23.0 million in the first quarter of 2008.

Sales Performance
Gross same-store sales move up 13.1% year-on-year in 2Q09 
and by 8.9% year-on-year in the first half

Net Sales    5,006.9    4,239.3    18.1%    9,648.3    8,483.4    13.7% 
(1) Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off

Gross sales totaled R$ 5,641.3 million in 2Q09, 15.4% up on 2Q08, while net sales grew by 18.1% to R$ 5,006.9 million.

83


In same-store terms, gross sales recorded a nominal increase of 13.1%, giving real growth of 7.6% after deflation by the General IPCA consumer price index (1), while net sales recorded nominal growth of 15.6% . It is worth noting that, even with the positive effect of Easter, which fell in April this year versus March in 2008, same-store sales in May and June continued to move up strongly.

Gross same-store sales of food products climbed by 12.8% year-on-year in the quarter, due to the seasonal effect of Easter, especially in the beverage, groceries and personal care & household cleaning product segments. Non-food sales grew by 14.3%, led by the electronics/household appliance, general merchandise and drugstore categories, which posted higher increases than the non-food average. In addition, electronics/household appliance sales posted double-digit growth, mainly due to household appliances, which benefited from the reduction in IPI (federal VAT).

The Company’s sales performance in the quarter was also the consequence of a series of partnerships with suppliers, executed through a combination of aggressive promotions and an appropriate product mix, underpinned by efficient commercial and supply management.

The Group’s best-performing formats were Pão de Açúcar, Extra, Extra Fácil and Assai, whose sales growth was higher than the Company average. E-commerce (comprising Extra.com.br and Pão de Açúcar Delivery) posted growth of more than 50%. The average ticket also moved up, as did customer traffic, signaling a potential gain in market share, especially by the Extra format.

First-half gross sales totaled R$ 10,932.7 million and net sales stood at R$ 9,648.3 million, respective year-on-year increases of 10.7% and 13.7% .

Same-store gross sales grew by 8.9%, giving real growth of 3.2% after deflation by the IPCA(1), above the annual guidance of 2.5%, while same-store net sales recorded nominal growth of 11.7% .

Also on a same-store basis, gross food sales moved up by 7.9% and gross non-food sales by a hefty 12.0%, thanks to an improved assortment, more appropriate pricing and joint promotional campaigns with suppliers.

(1) Like ABRAS (the Brazilian Supermarket Association), the Company has adopted the IPCA – General Consumer Price Index as its inflation indicator, since it gives a more accurate reflection of the Company’s product and brand mix.

Gross Profit
Growth of 14.6% in the quarter 

Gross Profit                         
 
(R$ million)(1)   2Q09    2Q08    Chg. %    1H09    1H08    Chg. %

(1)      Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off
(2)      basis points

Second-quarter gross profit totaled R$ 1,267.5 million, 14.6% up year-on-year, accompanied by a gross margin of 25.3%, down by 80 bps, chiefly due to the change in the way ICMS (state VAT) is collected on certain products as of the second quarter of 2008, especially in the state of São Paulo. This change led to an increase in the cost of goods sold and in net revenue, given that ICMS was no longer booked under sales taxes, but under COGS, in turn reducing the gross margin by around 60 bps over 2Q08.

In addition, the Company has been adopting a strategy of increasing its stake in new businesses such as Assai, gas stations and electronics/household appliances, which has also reduced the gross margin in recent quarters. On the other hand, this strategy has generated cash margin gains, in line with the Group’s established objectives.

In the first half, gross profit stood at R$ 2,443.7 million, 10.1% up year-on-year, with a gross margin of 25.3%, 90 bps down on the 26.2% recorded in 1H08, 60 bps of which due to the changes in the tax system.

Total Operating Expenses 
Reduction of 90 bps in the first half

(1)      Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off
(2)      basis points

Total operating expenses (including selling and general and administrative expenses) represented 18.4% of net sales in the second quarter, less than the 19.1% recorded in 2Q08. In absolute terms, they totaled R$ 922.3 million, 14.2% up year-on-year, due to the seasonal effect of Easter, when the Company generated additional expenses, especially with personnel and advertising.

85


Given that Easter fell in 2Q09, the first-half figures give a more accurate picture of the Group’s performance.

Operating expenses totaled R$ 1,786.2 million in 1H09, 8.5% up on 1H08 but below the period upturn in sales. As a percentage of net sales, they came to 18.5% in 1H09, 90 bps down on the same period last year.

Selling expenses came to R$ 1,534.9 million, 11.6% up year-on-year, while G&A expenses stood at R$ 251.3 million, down by 7.2% .

It is worth remembering that the 1Q08 operating results were affected by restructuring expenses totaling R$ 23.0 million. Excluding this effect, 1H09 operating expenses would have increased by 10.0% in relation to the 1H08 pro-forma result.

EBITDA of R$ 345.1 million in the quarter 

EBITDA                         
 
(R$ million)(1)   2Q09    2Q08    Chg. %    1H09    1H08    Chg. %

(1)      Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off
(2)      basis points

The second-quarter EBITDA margin stood at 6.9%, versus 7.0% in 2Q08. With the same level of margin, the Group continued to be highly competitive in terms of pricing, although this impact was offset by increased sales and continuing control over expenses. This result is in line with the Company’s strategy of seeking sustainable growth.

As a result, EBITDA totaled R$ 345.1 million in 2Q09, 15.7% up on the same period last year.

First-half EBITDA came to R$ 657.4 million, 14.9% more than in 1H08 and within the annual guidance of 10%, accompanied by an EBITDA margin of 6.8%, versus 6.7% in the same period last year.

If we exclude 2008 restructuring expenses from the calculation, 1H09 EBITDA would have grown by 10.5% over the 1H08 pro-forma figure.

Net Financial Result 
Net financial result recovers by 30.7% in the quarter

(1)      Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off

86


The net financial result was R$ 61.1 million negative in the second quarter, a 30.7% year-on-year improvement, due to the following factors:

(R$ million)(1)   2Q09    2Q08    Chg. (R$)   1H09    1H08    Chg. (R$)
(i) Debt Expenses    (58.8)   (72.4)   13.6    (129.1)   (140.0)   10.9 
(i) Receivables Fund    (24.2)   (22.6)   (1.5)   (49.7)   (44.1)   (5.6)
(ii) Cash Returns    27.0    30.2    (3.2)   59.1    50.4    8.7 
(iii) Mark to market    7.4    (8.2)   15.5    16.6    (7.4)   24.0 
(iv) Restatement of Assets and Liabilities    (21.9)   (29.1)   7.1    (50.5)   (49.4)   (1.1)
(iv) Other Financial Revenues (Expenses)   9.5    14.0    (4.5)   21.4    38.5    (17.1)
           
Net Financial Result    (61.1)   (88.1)   27.0    (132.3)   (152.2)   19.9 
CDI    2.4%    2.7%        5.4%    5.3%     

(1)      Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off

(i) Debt Expenses and Receivables Fund (positive variation of R$ 12.1 million): The period reduction in the average gross debt and the lower CDI rate offset the increase in the average amount assigned to the receivables fund.

(ii) Cash Returns (negative variation of R$ 3.2 million) due to the period reduction in the CDI rate, despite the slight upturn in the cash position.

(iii) Mark to market (positive variation of R$ 15.5 million) of the Company’s financial instruments following the accounting changes introduced by Law 11.638/07.

(iv) Restatement of Assets and Liabilities and Other Revenue/Expenses (positive variation of R$ 2.6 million) due to gains from the decline in the SELIC rate on the restatement of contingencies, partially offset by reduced revenue from interest-bearing installment sales and a reduction in capitalized interest due to lower period CAPEX.

The Group’s capital structure remains solid, with a reduction in net debt and increased cash flow, resulting in a net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.68x, fortified by the ongoing drive to optimize expenses and investments and maintain control over working capital.

Equity Income
Result reflects the strategies implemented throughout 2008 

FIC - Financeira Itaú CBD closed 2Q09 with 5.8 million clients and a receivables portfolio of R$ 1.7 billion and accounted for 13.8% of the Group’s total second-quarter sales. As a result, it generated equity income of R$ 3.4 million, a substantial 147.9% more than in 2Q08. First-half equity income totaled R$ 7.3 million, almost triple the amount in the same period last year.

This performance was due to a series of initiatives implemented throughout 2008, which generated important gains in portfolio profitability. The main such initiatives, which will be continued and therefore help ensure positive results in 2009, include:

87


(i) increased activation of private label and co-branded cards following the creation of differentials for card holders, including exclusive benefits, an advantage club and special promotions;

(ii) substantial growth in the penetration of extended warranties in the sale of electronics goods (53.5% in 2Q09 over 2Q08);

(iii) greater integration with the retail operation through marketing initiatives and partnerships with the stores, allowing FIC to increase its store market share from 13.0% in 2Q08 to 13.8% in 2Q09.

FIC’s performance in recent quarters was also due to a stringent credit granting policy, keeping default under control, and a differentiated positioning vis-à-vis its peers.

Minority Interest: Sendas Distribuidora 
Gross profit of R$ 183.8 million in the quarter

Total operating expenses represented 21.6% of net sales, higher than the 21.2% recorded in 2Q08 due to the big increase in IPTU property tax in Rio de Janeiro, which generated additional expenses of around R$ 4.0 million in the second quarter.

EBITDA totaled R$ 28.0 million, with a margin of 3.9% . If we exclude the additional IPTU expenses, EBITDA would have moved up by 8.5% . Sendas Distribuidora recorded a 2Q09 net loss of R$ 15.3 million, giving a positive minority interest of R$ 6.5 million for the Group.

In the first half, gross and net sales came to R$ 1,667.0 million and R$ 1,449.3 million respectively. Gross profit stood at R$ 384.6 million, with a gross margin of 26.5% . Total operating expenses amounted to R$ 303.9 million, representing 21.0% of net sales. It must once again be highlighted that this increase was due to the upturn in the IPTU property tax, which impacted the 1H09 expenses by over R$ 7 million. Without this additional expense, both as a percentage of net revenue and in reais, operating expenses would have been lower than in the previous year. EBITDA reached R$ 80.7 million, with a margin of 5.6% .

Sendas posted a first-half net loss of R$ 10.3 million, 33.9% up year-on-year, generating a positive minority interest of R$ 4.4 million for the Company.

Assai’s consolidated gross sales, including the stores in São Paulo, Ceará and Rio de Janeiro, totaled R$ 504.8 million in the second quarter, 55.0% up year-on-year, while net sales stood at R$ 455.5 million. Gross profit came to R$ 70.8 million, up by 81.0%, accompanied by a gross margin of 15.5%, a 170 bps improvement over 2Q08.

Total operating expenses came to R$ 57.4 million, representing 12.6% of net sales, 120 bps more than in 1Q09. Period EBITDA stood at R$ 13.4 million, with a margin of 2.9% .

89


These results were still strongly impacted by the opening of new stores and the conversion of existing ones to the Assai format, especially in Rio de Janeiro, which, despite recording a strong increase in sales, have not yet reached maturity. However, the EBITDA margin showed signs of improvement, widening by 320 bps over the previous quarter.

Assai posted second-quarter net income of R$ 7.6 million, 120.8% up year-on-year, generating a negative minority interest R$ 3.0 million.

In the first half, gross and net sales came to R$ 945.7 million and R$ 847.9 million, respectively. Gross profit stood at R$ 123.9 million, up by 67.6%, while the gross margin widened by 110 bps. Total operating expenses amounted to R$ 111.6 million, representing 13.2% of net revenue, and EBITDA reached R$ 12.2 million, with a margin of 1.4% . Excluding the stores converted to the Assai format in Rio de Janeiro, the EBITDA margin would have come to 3.1% . Net income totaled R$ 4.5 million, generating a negative minority interest of R$ 1.6 million for the Company.

Net income grows by 154.9% 

The Company posted a 2Q09 net income of R$ 131.7 million, 154.9% more than in 2Q08. First-half net income stood at R$ 226.6 million, representing 2.3% of net sales, a 130 bps year-on-year improvement.

First-half net income was impacted by 1Q08 restructuring expenses totaling R$ 17.2 million. It is also worth noting that despite the application of Law 11.638/07, 1H08 net income still included goodwill amortization, as shown in the table below:

Adjusted Net Income                         
 
(R$ million)(1)   2Q09    2Q08    Chg. %    1H09    1H08    Chg. %

Considering the impact of the above effects, adjusted net income in 2Q08 and 1H08, on comparable bases, totaled R$ 76.7 million and R$ 151.2 million respectively. Consequently, 2Q09 and 1H09 net income recorded growth of 71.8% and 49.9% over adjusted net income in 2Q08 and 1H08 respectively.

Investments
The Group invested R$ 113.8 million in 2Q09 

Second-quarter investments totaled R$ 113.8 million, versus R$ 105.2 million in 2Q08. Throughout the quarter, the Company opened three Extra Fácil stores and one drugstore; and converted one CompreBem store in São Paulo, two Sendas stores in Rio de Janeiro and one Extra hypermarket in Rio de Janeiro to the Assai format, as well as one CompreBem store in São Paulo to the Extra Perto format.

The main highlights of the quarter were:

First-half investments totaled R$ 193.2 million, versus R$ 229.0 million in 1H08.

Dividends 

On August 3, the Board of Directors approved a new dividend policy which alters the periodicity of dividend payments from one per year to one per quarter. The precise value and date of the quarterly prepayments will be defined by the Company on an annual basis. For 2009, the Board decided that the quarterly prepayments will be based on the total amount of dividends paid to the Company’s shareholders in 2008.

Consequently, and exceptionally, on August 24, 2009 (20 days after the Board Meeting approving the amount and date of the prepayment), the Company will prepay dividends totaling R$ 30.9 million, equivalent to two quarterly payments, at R$ 0.12326 per common share and R$ 0.13558 per preferred class A share. All shareholders registered as such on August 11, 2009, will be entitled to receive payment. Shares will be traded ex-rights as of August 12 until the payment date.

91


The final installment (referring to 4Q09) will comprise the difference between the amount prepaid throughout the year and the minimum mandatory dividends based on the Company’s performance in 2009. This payment will occur after the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting which approves the Company’s accounts and the proposal for the allocation of annual net income.
