  MESSAGE FROM MANAGEMENT

 

The first quarter of 2019 was marked by the harvest of grains in Brazil and it is already possible to observe a decrease in the total production of soybean in the country.

 

Our hedging strategy, combined with cost control and portfolio diversification, mitigated the impact of the climate on production and the operating result of the crop will not be greatly affected.

 

The irregular weather conditions registered in all of Brazil’s productive regions had an impact on the harvest. Between December and January, dry weather and high temperatures affected early crops especially in western Paraná and southern Mato Grosso do Sul. However, late-cycle soybean crops were able to recover losses in other regions, especially in the northeast, which reached a harvest above expectations in comparison with other regions.

 

As an illustration of the paragraph above, see the rainfall chart of São José Farm’s region:

 

We concluded the grain harvest at the Mato Grosso farms, with yields slightly below the expected. In farms located in the Northeast region, 93% of the area has already been harvested and we estimate an 11% reductions in yield. The harvest in Paraguay began in April and we estimate an increase of approximately 30% in production. The impact on corn yield was higher, with losses of approximately 10% in relation to the estimated yield.

In 9M19, we reached a Net Income of R$140.1 million, Adjusted EBITDA of R$171.5 million and Net Revenue of R$391.2 million.

Another important highlight was the start of stock coverage by two large institutions. Banco do Brasil and Credit Suisse initiated coverage of the stock with an Outperform recommendation and target price of R$20.00 and R$22.00, respectively. The reports are the result of efforts made to increase the Company’s visibility in the capital market and, consequently, increase the liquidity of the shares.

We reaffirmed the effectiveness of our strategy and our team’s ability in overcoming challenges. We have a solid balance sheet and a balanced portfolio mix, which allow us to consistently deliver real estate and operating results, even when we faced commodity prices and exchange rate volatility, uncertaintity about freight prices, scarce subsidized credit and climate adversities.

1- BrasilAgro entered into an agricultural exploration partnership in the Parceria II Farm for up to 11 harvests, involving up to 10,000 hectares.

2- New social denomination of the operation in Paraguay.

3- BrasilAgro entered into an agricultural exploration partnership in the Parceria III Farm potentially up to March 31, 2026.

4- BrasilAgro entered into an agricultural exploration partnership in the Parceria IV Farm for 15 years of planting of sugarcane, with option of renewal for another 15 years.

5- BrasilAgro entered into na agricultural exploration partnership in the Parceria V Farm for up to 10 years.

 

With the incorporation of the Parceria V area in August 2018, the Company’s total leased production areas increased to 47%. We believe that this mix between own and leased area leads to greater flexibility in portfolio management, reducing the volatility of the operating cash flow.

Development of Areas

During the 2018/2019 harvest year, we intend to transform approximately 4,000 hectares in Bahia and Paraguay, totaling 123,400 hectares of transformed area in 10 years of operation. This represents an average growth of 32% in the portfolio transformation, which is the main valuation index of our properties.

 

Market Value of the Portfolio

We hired the independent consulting firm Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu to conduct a market valuation of our properties. According to their appraisal, as of June 30, 2018, the market value of the portfolio was R$1.31 billion.

We review the internal market value of our farms annually, and on June 30, 2018, when the appraisal was conducted, the market value of our portfolio was R$1.25 billion.

In order to estimate the market value of our farms, we considered for each property: (i) its level of development; (ii) soil quality and maturity; and (iii) agricultural aptness and potential.

The table below shows the internal market valuation of the portfolio performed by independent consulting firm Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu on June 30, 2017 and 2018, considering the sales of part of the Jatobá Farm and part of the Alto Taquari Farm:

GRAIN AND COTTON

As mentioned in the previous release, December and January were impacted by very irregular rainfall, mainly in the MAPITOBA region, where we had short drought periods of 20 to 40 days, which mostly affected a large part of the crops in the growing phase, leading to the decrease in plant population. The earliest soybean cultivars, which were already in the reproductive period, were the most affected. Due to this irregular rainfall and the period they occurred, we updated the estimates as shown in the table below.

Corn crops were affected in their reproductive period due to short drought periods – in December and January – as explained above, increasing impacts on productivity. We estimate reductions of approximately 10% compared to previously expected.

In November 2018, we concluded the sugarcane harvest at the Alto Taquari, the Araucária, the Parceria III and the Parceria IV Farms, delivering 1.8 million tons, 4.5% lower than initially estimated, due to two reasons: approximately 500 hectares of the Alto Taquari Farm will be harvested in 2019 (cane that was available but will be processed in next year’s harvest) and wildfires caused by the dry winter in 2018. These wildfires led to the anticipation of the harvest of some areas, which were not yet within the ideal time frame, reducing the TCH (harvest tons per hectares) of such areas. On the other hand, the severe winter caused the materials to accumulate more sugar, which increased TRS (total recoverable sugar) and offset the negative impact on our results.

For the next harvest, we also expect a reduction on the estimated yield, due to the lower rainfall at the São José Farm, in Maranhão, the Araucária Farm, in Goiás, and the Alto Taquari Farm, in Mato Grosso, between November and January compared to previous records. In addition, the wildfires affected some areas of ratoons of sugarcane (700 hectares in the Alto Taquari Farm and 1,800 hectares in the São José Farm). We took corrective measures in order to intensify the nitrogen fertilization of the affected areas to mitigate the effect of fire in the ratoons, but, nevertheless, we should expect productivity impacts.

In addition to the 13,518 hectares estimated for active pasture during the 2018/2019 harvest, the Company has 4,253 hectares of pasture at the Chaparral Farm, which are part of the area opening strategy, because the grasses increase the organic material level in the soil and reduce impacts that could cause lower productivity in new areas.

As previously explained, cattle raising is a transitory activity for the Company, aimed at the transformation of the area. Due to the sale of the Jatobá Farm’s agricultural areas and the variation of prices of agricultural products, some areas that are occupied by pastures may be used for grain cultivation in the next harvest, which can have an impact of up to 10% in the estimated meat production.

OTHER

In order to improve the Company’s results, mitigate operating risks and as a real estate strategy, we leased 14,120 hectares to third parties in the state of Bahia, in the Midwest region and in Paraguay. The areas were leased to local farmers and the contracts have a term of up to five harvests.

In addition, we have 2,749 hectares of other crops, such as grasses cover crops and sorghum, in order to increase the organic matter and accelerate the maturation of the soil.

In 9M19, the recorded net revenue from sales was R$336.9 million, 125.3% higher than the same period of the previous year. This is mainly due to the revenue of R$123.3 million (present value) from the sale of the Jatobá Farm in 1Q19 and R$6.9 million (present value) from the sale of the Alto Taquari Farm in 2Q19.

 

SALE OF FARMS

In 9M19, the Company recorded the sales of one plot on the Jatobá Farm, an agricultural property located in the municipality of Jaborandi, Bahia, and of a plot of the Alto Taquari Farm, an agricultural property located in the municipality of Alto Taquari, Mato Grosso. A total of 9,784 hectares (7,485 arable hectares) were sold in the first operation, corresponding to the nominal value of R$173.8 million (~R$23,767/arable hectare), and a total of 103 arable hectares were sold in the second operation, corresponding to the nominal value of R$7.9 million (~R$77,690/arable hectare). There was no accounting of revenue from sales of properties in the same period of the previous year.

The variation in the R$8 million disclosed through Material Fact and the R$7.9 million recorded in the sale of the Alto Taquari Farm reflects the possibility of change in price due to differences between the estimated arable hectares and the arable hectares verified in the final measurement. This is possibility is remote, and is considered as a variable consideration component, as defined in paragraphs 50 and 51 of IFRS 15. Therefore, in order to represent the risk of revenue reversal, the Company does not recognize the percentage of 2.3% of the previously disclosed value until the final measurement of the negotiated area.

Gains or losses of agricultural products

Gains or losses from the variation in the fair value of agricultural products are determined by the difference between their harvested volume at market value (net of selling expenses and taxes) and the production costs incurred (direct and indirect costs, leasing and depreciation).

Harvested agricultural products are measured at their value at the time of harvest considering the market price of the area of each farm.

Biological assets correspond to agricultural products in formation (not yet harvested) and cattle, measured at the net present value of the expected cash flow from these products. The calculation of fair value considers the best estimates in relation to sales prices, discount rates, direct and indirect costs, leasing, yields and selling expenses.

The biological assets corresponding to sugarcane represent the total area to be harvested from April 1 to November 30, 2019.

 

IMPAIRMENT (REVERSAL OF PROVISIONS OF THE RECOVERABLE AMOUNT OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS, NET)

A provision to adjust inventories at the net realized value of agricultural products is constituted when the fair value of the inventory is higher than the realized value. The realization value is the sales price estimated during the normal course of business less estimated selling expenses.

On March 31, 2019, the recognized amount corresponded to a loss of R$436,000.

Corn COGS decreased by R$4.2 million in 9M19 versus the previous year, from R$10.9 million, from the sale of 25,000 tons at R$434.14 per ton, to R$6.8 million, from the sale of 16,300 tons at R$411.23 per ton. The reduction in cost per ton was due to the increase in volume produced.

Sugarcane COGS increased by R$28.3 million in 9M19 versus the previous year, from R$57.1 million, from the sale of 1.22 million tons at R$46.64 per ton, to R$85.4 million, from the sale of 1.23 million tons at R$69.40 per ton of sugarcane. The increase in cost per ton is mainly due to expenses with crop handling and irrigation in the São José Farm as of this harvest.

Cattle-raising COGS increased R$8.4 million in 9M19 compared to the previous year, from R$2.9 million from the sale cost of 1,336 head of cattle at R$2.1 thousand per head, to R$11.3 million from the sale cost of 5,938 head of cattle at R$2.0 thousand per head.

Other COGS in the amount of R$1.4 million in 9M19 mainly refers to the raw material inventory adjustment. In 9M18, other COGS in the amount of R$169,000 refers to the sale of waste.

In 9M19, general and administrative expenses increased by 13.5% compared to the same period of the previous year, from R$21.6 million to R$24.6 million.

The 22.5% increase in personnel expenses is due to the provision for the Long-Term Incentive Plan, the payment of bonuses and Social Security (INSS).

The law 13,606, in its article 15, §7, states that, as of January 2019, the farmer can opt to calculate social security contribution over the total wage. Before that, social security contribution was a percentage of gross income. The Company chose to adopt the change, which results in an increase in the Personnel expenses account as well as a reduction in the Taxes account.

The 27% increase in leases and rents in general is due to the grace period agreed in the renegotiation of lease contracts, which ended last harvest.

The 34% increase in software expenses refers to the implementation of the e-social and the effect of the exchange rate variation on subscriptions.

Other expenses include costs regarding telephony services, building maintenance, registry, insurances, shares listing and others.

The consolidated financial result is composed of the following items: (i) interest on financing; (ii) the impact of the monetary variation on the amount payable from the acquisition of farms; (iii) the impact of the U.S. dollar exchange variation on the offshore account and also Cresca’s receivables in 6M18; (iv) the present value of the Araucária, the Alto Taquari and the Jatobá Farms’ sales receivables, fixed in soybean bags, and the leasing of sugarcane areas; (v) the result from hedge operations; and (vi) bank fees and expenses and returns on cash investments.

The realization of the present value of assets and liabilities in 9M19, in the amount of R$4.2 million, shows the variation in the amount to be received due to the sales of the Araucária, the Jatobá and the Alto Taquari Farms, denominated in soybean bags, and the variation of Consecana’s price in the lease of the Parceria IV Farm.

The derivatives result reflects the commodities hedge operations result and the impact of the exchange variation on cash, which was partially dollarized in order to maintain purchasing power in regard to inputs, investments and new acquisitions, which have a positive correlation with the U.S. currency. In 9M19, the result of derivative transactions was R$13.2 million, R$6.1 million of which are related to currency operations and R$7.1 million are related to operations with commodities. In 9M18, derivative operations totaled R$280 thousand, R$1.7 million of which are related to currency operations and R$1.5 million are in operations with commodities.

The rise in other financial income / expenses is due to the increase in the Company’s cash position, from an average cash flow of R$48.1 million in 9M18 to R$101.8 million in 9M19.

 

DERIVATIVE OPERATIONS

Our risk policy primarily aims to hedge the Company’s cash flow. In this context, we are concerned not only with the main components of our revenue, but also the main components of our production costs. Therefore, we monitor on a daily basis: a) the international prices of the main agricultural commodities produced by the Company, usually expressed in U.S. dollars; b) the base premium, i.e. the difference between the international and domestic commodity price; c) exchange rates; and d) the prices of the main components such as freight, fertilizers and chemicals, that can significantly impact costs.

The points analyzed when deciding on the price and margin hedging strategy and tools are listed below:

        Estimated gross margin based on the current price environment.

        Standard deviation from the estimated gross margin for different pricing strategy scenarios.

        Analysis of the estimated gross margin in stress scenarios for different

hedge strategies.

        Comparison between current estimates and the Company’s budget.

        Comparison of the estimated gross margin and the historical average.

        Market expectations and trends.

        Tax aspects.

PROPERTIES FOR INVESTMENT

The fundamental pillars of the Company’s business strategy are the acquisition, development, exploration and sale of rural properties suitable for agricultural activities. The Company acquires rural properties with significant potential for generating value, subsequently transforming the assets and carrying out profitable agricultural activities on them.

Once we acquire our rural properties, we begin to implement high value added crops and to transform these rural properties by investing in infrastructure and technology. In line with our strategy, when we deem a rural property has reached its optimal return, we sell it to capture the capital gains.

The rural properties acquired by the Company are booked at their acquisition cost, which does not exceed their realized net value, and are recognized under “Non-Current Assets”.

Properties for investment are evaluated at their historical cost, plus investments in buildings, improvements and the clearing of new areas, less accrued depreciation, in accordance with the same criteria detailed for fixed assets.
