2 Presentation of the consolidated interim financial statements and significant accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation

The Company's interim financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 include the consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and of IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Officers ("Diretoria") of the Company on November 28, 2016.

The interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis value except for the valuation of certain assets (cash and cash equivalents and derivatives), which are measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

Several assumptions, including both subjective and objective methods, were used in making accounting estimates necessary for the preparation of the interim financial statements, based on Management’s judgment for determination of the appropriate amount to be reported in the interim financial statements. Significant items that are subject to these estimates and assumptions include: analysis of credit risk for determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, provisions of inventory, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, valuation of estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment assets, and their recoverable value in operation; valuation of financial assets at fair value; recognition of deferred income tax assets and analysis of other risks to determine other provisions, including provisions for contingencies.

The settlement of the transactions involved in these estimates may result in amounts that are significantly different from those reported in the interim financial statements, due to the assumptions inherent in determining estimates. The Company revises its estimates and assumptions annually.

2.2 Functional and presentation currency

a.Functional currency and reporting currency

The interim financial statements are presented in Brazilian Reais (“BRL”) and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Brazilian Reais (“BRL”).

b.Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into BRL, using the foreign exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of these transactions and from the translation of foreign currencies using the foreign exchange rates at the end of the reporting period are recognized in the income statement.

Foreign exchange variation gains and losses related to loans, financing and debentures and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the income statement as foreign exchange (losses) gains. .

2.3 Financial assets

a.Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash, bank accounts and short-term investments with immediate liquidity and low risk of changes in value.

The Company and its subsidiaries have financial investments, in the form of Certificate of Bank Deposits (CDBs), with a redemption period less than 90 days from the interim financial statements.

b.Marketable securities

Include liquid short-term investments with maturities of more than 90 days. See Note 4.1.

c.Trade accounts receivable

The trade accounts receivables not denominated in BRL are translated based on the foreign exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet dates. The allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on a risk analysis of the outstanding invoices, which takes into account the history of losses, the individual situation of the customers, the situation of the economic group to which they belong, guarantees, and the assessment of the Company’s legal counsel who provide updated information on specific customers to which the Company is taking legal action.

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

Information on the breakdown of current trade accounts receivable and amounts past due and the allowance for doubtful accounts is disclosed in Note 5.

d.Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred 'loss event') and if that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

Evidence of impairment may include indications that the customer or a group of customers is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and when observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

2.4 Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and conditions are accounted for as follows:

Raw materials

• At the average cost of acquisition.

Finished goods or products and work-in-progress

• Included cost of raw materials, labor, general manufacturing expenses and freight;

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale; and

Write-downs for slow-moving or obsolete inventories are recognized when deemed necessary by Management.

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the following:

• the cost of materials and direct labor;

• any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use; and

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

• capitalized borrowing costs

Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognized in profit or loss.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis based on the useful life of each asset. The useful lives of fixed assets and average annual depreciation rates are as follows:



Property, plant and equipment	% Average annual depreciation			Range of annual depreciation
Buildings		6.08	%		3 to 57 years
Facilities		9.38	%		3 to 35 years
Machineries and equipment		11.21	%		2 to 24 years
Furniture and fixtures		11.27	%		3 to 16 years
Vehicles		17.06	%		5 to 10 years
Computers		26.11	%		2 to 6 years

When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced, the Company recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciates them accordingly.

Repairs and maintenance are directly recognized in the income statement when they take place.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted if appropriate.

2.6 Intangible assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets are mainly comprised of software, licenses for use and goodwill.

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost at their initial recognition. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is deemed to be the fair value on the date of acquisition. After the initial recognition intangible assets are presented at cost, less accumulated amortization and accumulated losses, if applicable.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested at least annually to ensure that the carrying amount does not exceed its fair value, individually or at the level of the cash-generating unit.

The Company assesses annually whether there are indications of impairment in its indefinite useful lived intangible assets. If these indicators are identified, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or a group of assets is the greater of: (a) the fair value less estimated costs to sell it, and (b) its value in use. Value in use is the discounted cash flow (before taxes) from the continued use of the assets until the end of its useful life.

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

Regardless of the existence of indicators of loss of value, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least once a year.

When the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the impairment loss is recognized as an operating expense in the income statement.

Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their economic useful life and tested for impairment when there is indication of loss in value. The period and method of amortization of an intangible asset with definite life are reviewed on an annual basis. Changes in the estimated useful life or in the expected consumption of the future economic benefits of these assets are accounted as changes of accounting estimates. Amortization of intangible assets with definite lives is recognized in the income statement in the category of expenses, according to the use of the intangible asset.

Gains and losses resulting from disposals of intangible assets are measured as the difference between the net values obtained from the sale and the book value of the asset, and are recognized in the income statement at the disposal of the asset.

2.7 Investments

The Company values its investment in a jointly controlled entity using the equity method.

After applying the equity method, the Company determines whether it is necessary to recognize additional loss of the recoverable value of the Company's investment in a jointly controlled entity. The Company determines, at each reporting date, if there is objective evidence that investment in any entity could have suffered from a loss from impairment. If so, the Company calculates the amount of loss on the impairment as the difference between the recoverable value of the entity and the book value and any impairment amount is recognized in the income statement.

2.8 Consolidation

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The interim financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All related parties, transactions, income, expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated.

2.9 Financial instruments - Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified as: a) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and b) loans and receivables. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

The Company's financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade and other receivables, accounts receivable - related parties and derivatives financial instruments.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as described below:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term.

Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments as defined by CPC 38.

When a derivative is designated as a hedging instrument to hedge the variability of the cash flows, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and presented under equity valuation adjustments in equity. Any ineffective portion of changes in fair value of the derivative is immediately recognized in the income statement. The accumulated value held in equity valuation adjustments are reclassified to the income statement in the period in which the hedged item affects the income statement.

For the operations that are designated for hedge accounting, the Company formally documents the relation between the hedge instruments and the object items of hedge, including the objectives of risk management and the strategy on conducting the hedge transaction, in conjunction with the methods that will be utilized to measure the effectiveness of hedge relation.

The Company does a prospective evaluation, either at the moment of the designation of hedge relation, as well continuously, if there is an expectative that the hedge instruments are “highly effective” in the offsetting of the variations in fair value of the respective object items of hedge during the period in which the hedge is designated, and if the real results of each hedge fits in the range from 80% to 125%.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognized in finance costs in the income statement.

Financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit and loss are designated at their initial recognition date and only if the criteria under CPC 38 are satisfied.

Loans and receivables

The receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;

• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Company's continuing involvement in the asset. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred 'loss event') and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

Evidence of impairment may include indications that the customers or a group of customers is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and when observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities within the scope of CPC 38 are classified as liabilities at amortized cost.

The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value less, in the case of loans and financing, directly attributable transaction costs.

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

The Company's financial liabilities include accounts payable, assignment of credit by suppliers, loans and financing, debentures, finance leasing, other accounts payable, accounts payable to related parties, advances from customers, and derivative financial instruments.

Loans, financing and debentures

After initial recognition, interest bearing current and non-current term loans, financing and debentures are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR (effective interest rate) method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance costs in the income statement.

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the financial results.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position if, and only if:

• There is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts; and

• There is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

There is no offsetting of the financial instruments for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 nor for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Fair value of financial instruments

For financial instruments not traded in an active market, the fair value is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. Such techniques may include:

• Using recent arm's length market transactions;

• Reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same;

• A discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.

An analysis of fair values of financial instruments and further details as to how they are measured are provided in Note 15.

2.10 Taxes

Current income tax

The income tax and social contribution tax of the current year are calculated based on tax rates of 15%, plus an additional 10% on the taxable income exceeding R$ 240 thousand (annual basis) for the income tax and 9% on the taxable income for the social contribution on net income, and consider the offsetting of tax losses carryforwards and social contribution negative base, limited to 30% of the taxable income.

The current income tax is recognized in the statement of income unless it is related to a business combination, or items directly recognized in shareholders’ equity or in other comprehensive income.

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is generated by temporary differences on the reporting date between the taxable values of assets and liabilities and their book values.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all the temporary tax differences, except:

• When the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or from an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, on the transaction date, does not affect the accounting profit or the taxable income; and

• Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, credit and tax losses carryforward, to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available for those temporary differences to be able to be compensated and that recoverable taxes and losses carryforward can be used - except in these cases:

(i) when the deferred income tax asset related to the deductible temporary difference is generated in the initial recognition of the asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination; and

(ii) on the transaction date, it does not affect the accounting profit or the taxable income.

The book value of the deferred income tax assets is reviewed on each reporting date, and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that taxable income will be available to enable all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be used. Reductions to deferred income tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it becomes probable that future taxable profits will enable the deferred income tax assets to be recovered. There is no expiration of tax losses carryforward although there is a limitation of 30% of the annual taxable income.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate that is expected to be applicable in the year in which the asset is expected to be recoverable or the liability settled, based on the tax rates (and tax law) that have been enacted on the reporting date.

Deferred income tax relating to items directly recognized in shareholders’ equity is also recognized in shareholders’ equity, and not in the income statement. Deferred income tax items are recognized in accordance with the transaction that originated the deferred income tax or directly in shareholders’ equity.

September 30, 2016

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are presented net, if there is a legal or contractual right to offset the tax asset against the tax liability and the deferred income tax are related to the same tax entity and are subject to the same tax authority.

Other taxes

Revenues from sales are subject to taxation by State Value-Added Tax (“ICMS”), Services Tax (“ISS”), Social Contribution Tax on Gross Revenue for the 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 deductions from sales in the income statement.

The amounts recoverable derived from non-cumulative ICMS, PIS and COFINS are deducted from cost of goods acquired.

Taxes recoverable or prepaid taxes are shown in current and noncurrent assets, in accordance with the estimated timing of their realization.

Sales taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of sales tax except:

• When the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services are not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and

• Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of sales tax included. The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

2.11 Employees benefit plan

The Company is co-sponsor of an employee benefit plan, which includes “Produquímica-NE Prev” and “Igarassu Prev”. These plans were assumed by the Company as a result of the acquisition of Igarassu Agro Industrial Ltda. in July 2007.

As co-sponsor of both the Produquímica-NE Prev and Igarassu Prev plans in the defined contribution modality (post-employment), which in total comprise 166 employees, the Company has no legal obligation if the administrator of the plan does not have sufficient assets for payment of the benefits obtained by the employees as a result of services rendered, except for the employees mentioned in the next paragraph. The contribution of Produquímica-NE Prev is equal to 50% of the employee’s contribution, which is limited to 3%, 4% or 5% of the employee’s monthly remuneration. The contribution of Igarassu Prev is equal to 100% of the employee’s contribution, which is limited to 1.5% of the employee’s monthly remuneration.

Within the Produquímica-NE Prev plan, there are 8 employees under a defined benefit modality. This modality was closed to new entrants since December 31, 1998. Actuarial losses for these employees that are retired under the defined benefit modality are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they occur. See details in Note 21.

2.12 Related parties transactions

Transactions for purchases and sale of inputs and goods or products are made on conditions and for periods agreed between the parties, and when applicable eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

2.13 Determination of net revenues and cost of goods and products sold

a. Revenues are recognized in the interim financial statements net of taxes and discounts. Revenue from sales of goods or products are recognized when the amount of revenue is reliably measurable, the Company no longer has control over the goods or products sold or any other responsibility related to its ownership, the costs incurred or which will be incurred in relation to the transaction can be reliably measured, it is probable that the economic benefits will be received by the Company, and the risks and benefits of the goods or products have been fully transferred to the purchaser. Revenues are not recognized if their realization is uncertain.

b. Cost of goods or products sold includes the cost of logistics operations managed or outsourced by the Company, comprising warehousing, handling and freight costs incurred until the availability of goods for sale. Transportation costs are included in the purchase costs when applicable.

2.14 Leases

Leasing contracts for which significant portions of the risks and rights of ownership are maintained by the lessor are classified as operating lease. The payments made in the contracts for operational leasing are reported in the income statement on a linear basis during the period of the leased contracts.

Finance leases which transfer to the Company substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the beginning of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognized in finance expenses in the income statement. A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset or over the period of the lease contract, whichever is lower. See details in Note 19.

2.15 Tax incentives

The Company adopts the procedure of recognizing tax incentives only when all the conditions established are complied with and the incentive will effectively be received. The corresponding amount is recorded in the income statement and, subsequently, when applicable, transferred from retained earnings to the Profit reserves - tax incentives account, to be used only for increase of the registered capital or for any absorption of accumulated losses. See Note 25.

2.16 Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors, believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised.

Produquímica Indústria e Comércio S.A. and subsidiaries

Unaudited consolidated interim financial statements

September 30, 2016

Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the interim financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

The fair value less costs to sell calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions in arm's length transactions of similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model.

The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities, or significant future investments that will enhance the asset's performance of the cash generation unit being tested.

The recoverable amount is most sensitive to the discount rate used for the discounted cash flow model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.

Taxes

Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. Given the wide range of international business relationships and the long-term nature and complexity of existing contractual agreements, differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes to such assumptions, could require future adjustments to tax income and expense already recorded. The Company establishes provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities of the respective counties in which it operates. The amount of such provisions is based on various factors, such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations of tax regulations by the taxable entity and the responsible tax authority. Such differences of interpretation may arise on a wide variety of issues depending on the conditions prevailing in the respective Company's domicile.

Employees benefit plan

The cost of defined benefit pension modality is determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are based on the actuarial reports and reviewed at each reporting date.

The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables in Brazil. Future salary increases and pension increases are based on expected future inflation rates in Brazil. Further details about the assumptions used are given in Note 21.

a)Environmental liabilities

The Company recognizes a provision for environmental liabilities, based on best estimates of potential costs of cleaning and recovery in known environmental locations. The Company has an internal team of environmental specialists to manage all the phases of its environmental programs, and uses third party specialists when necessary. Based upon their information and third party specialist reports, the internal environmental specialists based on their information, and third party specialists reports, make estimates of potential liabilities in those locations based on projected and known costs of recovery. This analysis requires the Company to make estimates, and changes in the facts and circumstances can result in changes in the environmental provision.

b)Estimated useful life of non-current assets

The Company recognizes the depreciation of its non-current assets in accordance with their estimated useful economic lives, based on industry practices and prior experience.

Actual useful lives may, however, vary due to technological updating of a unit.

c)Impairment test

Assets that have indefinite useful lives, such as goodwill, are not amortized, but tested annually for impairment. For the purpose of identifying the loss of economic value of the goodwill recorded, these assets are grouped at the lowest level for which cash flows can be identified (cash-generating units) and the allocation is made proportionately. Reductions of goodwill due to impairment are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they occur and cannot be reversed in subsequent periods, even if the conditions that caused the loss cease to exist.

d)Provision for contingencies

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal obligation, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to take into account changes in circumstances, such as the applicable statutes of limitation, conclusions of tax inspections, or additional exposures identified based on new subjects or court decisions.

2.17 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they are incurred.

2.18 Dividends

Dividends to the Company’s shareholders are recognized as a liability based on the minimum mandatory dividends established by the statutory law. Any additional amount is only recognized as a liability at the date on which such incremental dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders.

2.19 Shareholder’s equity

Common and preferred shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.

2.20 Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive financial instrument, therefore, diluted earnings per share and basic earnings per share are the same.

2.21 New IFRS issued not yet effective

Standards issued but not yet effective up to the reporting date are listed below. This listing of standards and interpretation issued are those that the Company reasonably expects to have an impact on disclosures, financial position or performance when applied at a future date. The Company intends to adopt these standards when become effective.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement

IFRS 9, published in July 2014, replacing the existing guidance in IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement). IFRS 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a new model of expected credit loss for the calculation of the impairment of financial assets, and new requirements for hedge accounting. The standard retains the existing guidance on the recognition and derecognition of financial instruments in IAS 39.

IFRS 9 is effective to the years beginning on or after 1^st January 2018 with earlier adoption allowed. The Company is evaluating the effects that IFRS 9 will have on its interim financial statements and disclosures.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 requires an entity to recognize the revenue amount reflecting the charge which it expects to receive in return of the possession of these goods or services. This new standard will replace most of the orientation detailed over the revenue recognizing that currently exists in IFRS and US. GAAP when the new standard is adopted. The new standard is applicable as from or after 1^st January 2018, with earlier adoption allowed by IFRS. The standard may be adopted retrospectively, using a cumulative effects approach. The Company is appraising the effects that IFRS 15 may produce in the interim financial statements and its disclosures. The Company still hasn’t chosen the transition method for the new standard and neither has determined the effects of the new standard in the current interim financial statements.

IFRS 16 leases

IFRS 16 requires an entity to recognize that most of the leases in which the Company is a lessee should be recognized on the balance sheet. The new standard is effective on or after January 1, 2019 and will replace IAS 17- leases, with earlier application permitted.

Additionally, it is not expected that the following new standards or changes will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements:

• Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization (Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization) (changes of CPC 27 / IAS 16 and CPC 04 / IAS 38)

• Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 - various standards

• Investment Entities: Consolidation Exception (Investment Entities: Consolidation Exception) (CPC Changes 36 / IFRS 10, CPC 45 / IFRS 12 and CPC 18 / IAS 28)

The following average annual rates and useful life are used for calculation of amortization:

a.Impairment test of goodwill and intangibles assets

The Company calculated on December 31, 2015 the recoverable amount of goodwill arising from past acquisitions to determine whether there were changes in the value of these assets arising from events or changes in the economic, operating and technological circumstances that might indicate impairment for all Cash Generating Units (“CGU”). The Company’s goodwill is allocated in the CGU’s of Igarassu and Maua plants.

The Company assesses annually whether there are indications of impairment in its long lived assets. If these indicators are identified, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or a group of assets is the greater of: (a) the fair value less estimated costs to sell it, and (b) its value in use. Value in use is the discounted cash flow (before taxes) from the continued use of the assets until the end of its useful life.

Tests for impairment are made at least once a year for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, regardless of the existence of indicators of loss of value.

The process of determination of the value in use involves the use of assumptions, judgments and estimates on cash flows, such as rates of growth of revenues, costs and expenses, estimates of future investments/capital expenditure and working capital, and discount rates. The assumptions on growth forecasts, cash flows, and future cash flows are based on the Company’s business plan, approved by management, and also on comparable market data, and represent management’s best estimate of the economic conditions that will exist during the economic life of the various cash-generating units, a group of assets that generate cash flows.

Future cash flows were discounted based on the rate representing the cost of capital. The estimated future cash flows were discounted at a discount rate of 17.6% per year, for each cash-generating unit analyzed.

In a manner consistent with the economic valuation techniques, the assessment of value in use is made for a period of five years, after which perpetuity of the assumptions is assumed, in view of the capacity for continuity of the business activities for an indeterminate period.

The principal assumptions used in the estimate of value in use are:

• Revenues - Revenues were projected between 2016 and 2020 in according to the National Consumer Price Index, or IPCA (Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo).

• Cost operating and expenses - Were projected in line with the Company’s historic performance, and in line with the historic growth of revenues.

• Capital investments - The capital expenditure was estimated taking into account the need for investments to sustain the projected growth of revenues specifically for each cash-generating unit, in accordance with the Company’s strategic plan.

September 30, 2016

The key assumptions were based on the Company’s historic performance and on macroeconomic assumptions that are reasonable and grounded on projections of the financial market, and approved by the Company’s management.

The test of impairment of the Company’s intangible assets, held annually, did not result in a need to recognize any loss in the year ended December 31, 2015, since the estimated market value is higher than the net book value on the date of the valuation.

b.Risk factors that could affect the Company’s business:

Merchandise price risk

This risk is related to the possibility of variations in the price of the goods or products that the Company sells or in the price of the raw materials and other inputs used in the production process.

Due to operating also with commodities, the Company’s net sales revenues and cost of goods or products sold might be affected by changes in international prices of the commodities in which the Company operates. To minimize this risk, the Company monitors variations in prices in the Brazilian and international markets.

The effect of the variation in merchandise prices is directly related to market variations. These are analyzed also taking into account variation in the foreign exchange rate.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash, cash equivalents or other financial assets. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

The Company uses activity-based costing to cost its products and services, which assists it in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments.

The following are the contractual maturities, including the contractual interest obligations, of financial liabilities:

Total	85,529	124,605	89,437	35,168	-	-

Interest rate risk

This risk arises from the possibility of the Company suffering losses (or making gains) due to variations in the interest rates that are applied to its liabilities, and to funds raised from, or invested in, the market. To minimize possible effects of variations in interest rates, the Company adopts a policy of diversification, alternating, in the contracts that it makes, between fixed and variable rates (such as Libor and the CDI), with periodic renegotiation of its contracts, to adapt them to the market.

Credit risk

This arises from the possibility of the Company not receiving amounts arising from sales, or credits held with financial institutions generated by financial investment transactions. To attenuate this risk the Company adopts as a practice detailed analysis of the financial position of its customers, establishment of a credit limit and permanent monitoring of their debt balances, and also requires guarantees, principally promissory notes (for customers which the Company assesses as being of greater risk). In relation to financial investments, the Company only makes investments in institutions with low credit risk as assessed by rating agencies.

Further, it allocates a maximum limit for the financial investment balance to each institution, which is decided by the Credit Committee.

The Company believes that its accounting policy of making allowance for doubtful accounts and its procedures for management of risk described above adequately cover its credit risk.

Capital management risk

This risk is linked to the Company’s choice of its financing structure for its transactions - i.e. the ratio between financial debt and own capital, being shareholders’ equity, retained earnings and profit reserves - based on internal policies and benchmarks. The Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) include WACC (weighted average cost of capital), Net debt/Ebitda, the ratio of net debt to shareholders’ equity. Total debt comprises short and long term debt. The Company may change its capital structure, in accordance with economic/financial conditions, aiming to optimize its financial leverage and its debt management. At the same time, the Company seeks to improve its return on capital employed (ROCE) through implementation of a management of working capital and an efficient program of investments in property, plant and equipment.

Derivatives

Gains or losses resulting from the changes in fair value are recognized in the financial result, except when the derivative is qualified and designated for hedge accounting.

The Company adopts the cash flow hedge for operations related to loans and borrowings. The hedge instruments are accounted at fair value and the hedge object at curve value. The variation between the curve value of the hedge instrument and fair value considered in shareholders’ equity, so that both the hedge instruments and the objects of hedge impact the profit or loss by the curve value. If the hedge instrument does not comply with the hedge accounting criteria, expire or get sold, terminated, carried out, or has its designation revoked, then the hedge accounting is prospectively discontinued and the deferred hedge accounting adjustment in shareholders’ equity is recognized in the profit or loss.

The movement of the outstanding and settled contracts for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015 are demonstrated in the note 26.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

• Cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade accounts receivable from customers, suppliers and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

• Long-term fixed-rate and variable-rate receivables / loans are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors and individual creditworthiness of the customer and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for the expected losses of these receivables. As at September 30, 2016, the carrying amounts of such receivables, net of allowances, are not materially different from their calculated fair values.

• The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, mainly financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings.

Derivatives valued using valuation techniques with market observable inputs are mainly interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and commodity forward contracts. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing and swap models, using present value calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate curves and forward rate curves of the underlying commodity.

As at September 30, 2016, the fair value of derivative asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

• Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Other techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly;

• Level 3: Techniques that use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value, and which are not based on observable market data.

During the nine-month reporting period ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, there were no changes in Level l and Level 2 fair value measurements.

17 Provision for contingencies

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made to settle the obligation.

Management based on the opinion of its legal counsel believes that the provision for these lawsuits and administrative proceedings is sufficient to cover probable and reasonably estimable losses from unfavorable decisions.

The Company sponsors the Produquímica NE PREV Benefits Plan (“Plano de Benefícios Produquímica - NE PREV”) (“the Plan”), which is administered by the unrelated entity BB Previdência. The Plan has benefits for participants, and includes: retirement income; disability benefit; and benefit and pension in the event of death.

The Plan has predominantly the characteristics of a defined-contribution plan. The only portions of the Plan that are characterized as being of the defined-benefit type are the previously granted benefits of income for life, and the death and disability benefits for eight employees.

Unvested past service costs are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis until the benefits become vested. Past service costs are recognized immediately if the benefits have already vested immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a pension plan.

The defined benefit asset or liability comprises the present value of the defined benefit obligation (using a discount rate based on NTN-B), less unrecognized past service costs and less the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled. Plan assets are assets that are held by a long-term employee benefit fund or qualifying insurance policies. Plan assets are not available to the creditors of the Company and cannot be paid directly to the Company.

Fair value is based on market price information and, in the case of quoted securities, it is the published bid price. The value of any defined benefit asset recognized is restricted to the sum of any unrecognized

past service costs and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.

The contributions to the defined-contribution portion of the Plan recognized in the Company’s Income statement for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 totaled respectively R$ 160 and R$ 151.

The policies, assumptions and results obtained from the actuarial valuation of the defined-benefit portion of the Plan are set out below.

The defined benefit portion of the Plan is derived from the transfer of eight participants from the VCNE Benefits Plan (Plano de Benefícios VCNE) (administered by Funsejem - Fundação Senador José Ermínio de Moraes) to the Produquímica NE PREV Benefits Plan, approved by Previ [Ministerial Order MPS/PREVI/DETEC 853, of October 28, 2010, published in the federal Official Gazette of October 29, 2010 - Section 1, page 105]. This being so, the tables below show the movement as from December 31, 2015. The Company adopts the policy of recognizing actuarial losses in the income statement of the period in which they occur.
