1.         We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRS. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

2.         Our review was conducted in accordance with specific standards established by the Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors (IBRACON), together with the Brazilian Federal Accounting Council (CFC), and consisted, principally, of: (a) inquiries of and discussions with certain officials of the Company and its subsidiaries who have responsibility for accounting, financial and operating matters about the criteria adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements; and (b) review of the information and subsequent events that have, or might have had, material effects on the financial position and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

11. Deposits

Maintenance deposits

Under certain existing lease agreements, maintenance deposits are paid to aircraft and engine lessors that are to be applied to future maintenances deposits. The maintenance deposits paid under lease agreement transfer neither the obligation to maintain the aircraft nor the cost risk associated with the maintenance activities to the aircraft lessor. The Company maintains the right to select any third-party maintenance provider or to perform such services in-house.

These deposits are calculated based on a performance measure, such as flight hours or cycles, and are available for reimbursement to the Company upon the completion of the maintenance of the lease aircraft. Therefore, these amounts are recorded as a deposit on the balance sheet and maintenance cost is recognized when the underlying maintenance is performed, in accordance with the Company’s maintenance policy. Certain lease agreements provide that the excess deposits are not refundable to the Company. Such excess could occur if the amounts ultimately expended for the maintenance events were less than the amounts deposited. Any excess amounts held by lessor or retained by the lessor upon the expiration of the lease, which are not expected to be significant, would be recognized as additional aircraft rental expense.

Based on the foregoing analysis, management believes that the amounts reflected on the consolidated balance sheet are probable of recovery. There has been no impairment of Company’s maintenance deposits, which presented on March 31, 2010 the amount of R$ 7,307 and R$ 481,694 (R$50,429 and R$472,244 at December 31, 2009).

Additionally, the Company has reached agreements with certain lessors to replace the deposits with letters of credit and amend the lease terms to enable the Company to utilize the deposited funds to settle other amounts owed under the lease. Many of the new aircraft leases do not require maintenance deposits.

Deposits in guarantee for leasing contracts

As required by the lease agreements, the Company made deposits in guarantee for aircraft leasing companies, which are fully redeemable at the maturity dates of the lease contracts. On March 31, 2010, the balance of these deposits classified in non-current asset is R$ 266,227 (R$251,716 on December31, 2009).

13. Earnings per share

Although, there are differences in voting rights and liquidation preferences, the Company’s preferred shares are not entitled to receive any fixed dividends. Rather, the preferred shareholders have identical rights to earnings and are entitled to receive dividends per share in the same amount of the dividends per share paid to holders of the common shares. Therefore, the Company understands that, substantially, there is no difference between preferred shares and common shares and the basic earnings (loss) per share calculation should be the same way for both shares.

Consequently, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income by the weighted average number of all classes of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted earnings per share are computed including dilutive potential shares from the executive employee stock options using the treasury-stock method when the effect is dilutive. The effect anti-dilutive potential shares are ignored in calculating dilutive earnings per share.

16. Financial assets and liabilities – Continued

The Company has extended the maturity of the financing for some of its leased aircraft to 15 years by using the SOAR structure, which is a mechanism for lengthening the period for amortizing and paying off the financing and permits calculated draw downs to be made for settlement by payment in full at the end of the lease agreement. As of March 31, 2010 the value of the drawdowns made for payment in full upon termination of the lease agreement is R$28,737 (R$24,614 as of December 31, 2009).

Restrictive covenants

In March 31,2010, the calculation of covenants ratio resulted in 4,9x of the net debt/EBTIDA, a higher level than required by IFC agreement. However, the Management understands that the Company reaches the obligation required by the contract, when establish in its clauses that a default will occur only effectively after 30 days of a formal notification from the financial institution. This period is denominated as “Cure period”.

The Company uses the residual method for revenue recognition of mileage credits. Under the residual method, the portion of revenue from the sale mileage credits and the mileage component of passenger ticket sales that approximates fair value is deferred and recognized as revenue when miles are redeemed and services are provided based on the weighted-average price of all miles that have been deferred. The portion of the revenue received in excess of the fair value of mileage credits sold (the “marketing premium”) is recognized in income when the related marketing services are provided and classified as cargo and other revenue.

The associated value for mileage credits which the Company estimates are not likely to be redeemed (“breakage”) is recognized as revenue. The Company calculates its breakage estimate based on historical redemption patterns.

At March 31, 2010, the Smiles deferred revenue balances are R$78,045 and R$227,631 classified in current and non-current liabilities, respectively (R$92,541 and R$221,414 at December 31, 2009 respectively).

At March 31, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties in judicial lawsuits and administrative proceedings, totaling 17,029 according to the following distribution: (i) 11,927 civil claims, being 1,151 administrative proceedings and (ii) 5,102 labor claims, being 82 administrative proceedings.

As a result of the Company’s normal course of operations, there are respectively, 11.927 civil claims, 1,157 labor claims and 1,233 administrative proceedings. The remainder is related to requests for recognition of succession related by obligations from the former Varig S.A. Provisions are recognized for probable losses and are reviewed based on the development of suits and the historical record of loss of civil and labor suits, based on the best current estimate.

The estimated obligations resulting from the civil and labor suits are shown as follows:

    31/03/10    31/12/09 
Civil    41,174    34,815 
Labor    36,136    35,524 
    77,310    70,339 

 

There is other processes evaluated by Management and by lawyers classified as of possible risk, in March 31,2010 in the amount of R$ 54,823 for civil claims and R$ 1,731 for labor claims (R$54,823 and R$1,731 December 31,2009) for which there is not provision recorded. The amounts remain the same, because there was no court definition related to this claims.

The Company is part of 4 labor claims in France arising from Varig S.A. debts. As of March 31, 2010, the company obtains a first judicial decision sentence, favorable to the Company. The amount related in these discussions, not provisioned, is around of R$7,227 (corresponding to € 2.1 million) and is updated until December 2009.

The Company is challenging in court the VAT (ICMS) levies on aircraft and engines imported under aircraft leases without purchase options in transactions carried out with lessors headquartered in foreign countries. The Company’s management understands that these transactions represent simple leases in view of the contractual obligation to return the assets that are the subject of the contract. Given that there is no circulation of goods, a relevant tax triggering event is not characterized.

25. Commitments

The Company has a purchase contract with Boeing for acquisition of aircraft, and at March 31, 2010, the Company has 86 firm orders and 40 purchase options granted with non-onerous term. Up to one year, the Company made pre-delivery deposits for 13 aircraft, which have a schedule for delivery until August 2012 and the other with a term exceeding 18 months. These advances for aircraft acquisition were being financed by financings denominated Pre-delivery Facility I and II, with maturities in February 2010 and December 2010 respectively, as described in Note 16. The firm orders have an approximate value of R$10,783,408 (US$6 billion) based on the aircraft list price (which excludes contractual manufacturer discounts), including estimated amounts for contractual price escalations and pre-delivery deposits. Aircraft purchase commitments financed with long-term financing guaranteed by the U.S. Ex-Im Bank corresponds to approximately 85% of the total acquisition cost. Other agents finance the acquisition at or above this percentage reaching 100%.

The Company has been making payments for pre-delivery deposits of aircraft using combined resources of: Company’s own capital, borrowings, cash generated by operations, short and medium-term working capital and financings to the supplier.

26. Financial instruments and concentration of risk

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to market risks as a result of its operations and consider as more relevant risks the effects of changes in the price of fuel, exchange rate, interest rate risks and credit risks.

The goal of the risk management program of the Company aims to protect against sudden increase of the costs linked to market prices that could affect the Company’s competitiveness in a given period. These risks are managed through use of financial instruments for protection available in the financial market such as swaps, future contracts, exchange options and fuel options. The operations that involve fuel and interest are contracted with international banks classified as low risk (average rating of A+ according to Moody’s and Fitch) and the operations that involve foreign currency are negotiated on BM&FBOVESPA. The use of these instruments is oriented by a formal policy of risk management which is under the guidance of its executive officers, Risk Policies Committee and Board of Directors. The Company’s Risk Management Policy establishes controls and limits, as well as other tracking techniques, chiefly mathematical models adopted to constantly monitor exposures, in addition to expressly prohibiting the carrying out of speculative operations involving derivative instruments. The derivative financial instruments are only used for hedge purposes. Additionally, the Company does not conduct any type of operation involving leverage.

Historically, the Company does not contract protection for all of its exposure to fuel consumption, to foreign exchange and interest exposure and is, therefore, subject to the portion of the risks arising from market fluctuations. The portion of the exposure being protected is determined quarterly in line with the strategies determined in the Risk Policies Committee and are monitored periodically, and can reach the totality of the exposure.

The Financial Risk Committee recommends for approval of the Board of Directors long term programs of contracting derivative financial instruments to protect the Company against possible changes in the market price relating to risk of fuel, exchange rates and interest rates during the period of 12 months on a rolling basis allowing, such to be extended if some predetermined prices are reached.

The Company adopts for a large portion of its derivatives financial instruments the hedge accounting method according to the parameters described in the IAS 39. All derivative financial instruments contracted with the purpose of protection are formally identified through documentation on the acquisition to allow it to fit with the requirements needed to use the hedge accounting method. The Company classified the derivative financial instruments used for protection as “cash-flow hedge” and recognizes, based on the criteria for hedge accounting described in CPC14, the changes in fair value of effective derivatives financial instruments under shareholders’ equity until the object of the hedge achieves its maturity.

26. Financial instruments and concentration of risk -- Continued

The IAS 39 also requires proof of the effectiveness, prospective and retrospective, of the derivative financial instruments to contain the changes of the expenses protected. The Company estimates the effectiveness based on statistical correlation methods or by the proportion of the variation of gains and losses in fair value of derivatives instruments used as hedge and the variation of the costs of the protected object. The results of effective hedges are booked as a reduction or increase in the operational cost (with exception of interest rate hedge results), and the results of hedges that are not effective are recognized as a financial income or expense of the period. Ineffective hedges occur when the variation in the value of the derivatives is not between 80% and 125% of the variation in the price of the object of hedge. When the protected object is consumed and the respective derivative financial instrument is settled, the unrealized gains or losses booked in shareholders’ equity are recognized in the income statement. In the case of the derivative financial instruments designated for hedging interest rates, the values of gains or losses with liquidation of these instruments are recorded in income or expense.

The Company also contracts derivative financial instruments which are not designated as hedge, in other words, such do not use the criteria for hedge accounting. These contracts are derivatives of interest swap-lock that are used to protect the exposure denominated in Libor rates on operation of aircraft leases. For these derivatives instruments, the change in fair value is recognized directly as financial income or expense of the period.

The market fair value of swaps is estimated based on the method of discounted cash-flow and the fair value of options is estimated using the Black & Scholes method (adapted to commodities options in the case of oil).

The derivative financial instruments were recorded in the following accounts in the balance sheet:

Description    Accounts    Amounts on 
        March 31, 2009 
Amount receivable on settlement    Other assets    24,737 
Amount payable on settlement    Other liabilities    (14,902) 
Margin deposits related to hedge exchange rate    Restricted cash    19,211 
Changes in fair value of hedge accounting    Other comprehensive income (loss)    (1,024) 

 

The relevant information relating to the main risks that affect the Company operations are detailed as follows:

a) Fuel price risk

One of the main market risks that the airlines companies face is the price of aircraft fuel whose variations are tied to fluctuations in the price of oil and the fuel represent a significant portion of airlines companies’ costs. Because of this exposure, the Company manages this risk by using strategies of contracting derivative financial instruments that aims to provide protection against sudden and significant increases in the price of oil, thus ensuring the competitiveness of the Company.

26. Financial instruments and concentration of risk -- Continued

Aircraft fuel consumed in the period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 represented 36.1% and 31.6% of the Company’s operating costs of service, respectively.

Because of the jet fuel traded in commodity exchanges has lower liquidity, the Company acquires derivatives of crude oil to protect against oscillation of aircraft fuel price. Historically, oil prices have been highly correlated to aviation fuel prices, which make oil derivatives effective in offsetting the prices of aviation fuel, so as to provide immediate protection. The hedged item of fuel is the operational expenses with aircraft fuel. The contracts of derivative for fuel hedge are done in Nymex and over the Counter markets with the following financial institutions: Barclays, British Petroleum, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley.

On March 31, 2009, there were no financial assets linked to margin deposits for contracting derivative instruments for fuel hedge.

b) Foreign currency risk

Risk of exchange rate is the risk related to unexpected variation, in a favorable or unfavorable way, of the expenses and/or revenues whose values are tied to the fluctuations in foreign currencies. The Company’s exposure to foreign currencies is mainly related to operating activities and investments in foreign subsidiaries. The Company’s revenue is generated in Brazilian reais, except for a small portion in Argentine Pesos, Aruban Florin Bolivian Bolivianos, Chilean Pesos, Colombian Pesos, Paraguayan Guaranis, Uruguayan Pesos and Venezuelan Bolivares from flights between Brazil, Argentina, Aruba, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay and Venezuela. However, the Company has a significant portion of its liabilities exposed to changes in the exchange rate of U.S. dollars, particularly those related to aircraft leasing and instruments for raising funds for financing aircrafts acquisitions, requiring contracting derivative financial instruments to mitigate this risk. The main expenses accounts that are hedged due to exchange rate exposure are: jetfuel, leasing, maintenance, insurance and international IT services.

The contracts of derivative financial instruments for U.S. dollar hedge are performed with BM&FBOVESPA using exclusive investments funds which are used as vehicles for contracting risk coverage as described in the Company’s Risk Management Policy.

The value of financial assets linked to margin deposits on March 31, 2010 is R$19,211 represented by CDB’s (Bank Certificate Deposits) of first tier banks.

c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or a customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities primarily for trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, including bank deposits, financial assets classified as available for sale assets, and derivative financial instruments. The credit risk of accounts receivable is minimized because it is substantially represented by accounts receivable of the largest credit card operators. The derivative financial instruments are made with counterparties that have high ratings according to the assessment by Moody’s and Fitch (an average rate of A+) or the instruments are contracted in the stock exchange of futures and commodities (BM&FBOVESPA). In addition, the Company assesses the risks of counterparties and diversifies its exposure. The Company's management believes that the risk of not receiving the amounts owed by their counterparts in derivative transactions is not significant.

d) Interest rate risk

The Company results are affected by fluctuations in international interest rates because of the impacts of such changes in expenses with leasing. On March 31, 2010 the Company has derivative financial instruments of interest swap-lock to protect against oscillation of interest rates on aircraft leasing.

The interest rate hedge operations are performed through contracts with first tier financial institutions. At March 31, 2010, the Company has open contracts with the following financial institutions: Calyon, Citibank and Merrill Lynch.

The Company had no financial assets linked to margin deposits as of March 31, 2010.

f) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk represents the risk of shortage of funds to pay off debts. To avoid mismatch of accounts receivable and accounts payable, the Company’s cash management policy limits a maximum of 20% of its investments with maturities in the same month and the duration of the investments cannot exceed the duration of the Company’s payment obligations.

The Company’s off-balance sheet exposure represents the future obligations related to operating lease contracts and aircraft purchase contracts. The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments with first-tier banks for cash management purposes.
