Comments on the Performance

 

GOL’s strong results are driven by its continuous investment in being the best Company to travel, work and invest, and reflect the social capital built up over two decades of collaboration with its Customers, Team of Eagles, suppliers, and investors.

 

Consistent Sales Growth and Focus on Sustainable Passenger Yields

Net revenue from passenger transportation grew significantly in the first quarter due to the strong, continued recovery in the domestic market. In January and February, sales levels surpassed the same pre-pandemic period in 2019 by 10% and 30%, respectively – further expanding to 60% in March 2022, driven by a 63% increase in corporate segment sales and a boost in combined business and leisure travel, also known as bleisure trips. This higher sales figure was enhanced by an adjustment in ticket prices, chiefly driven by higher jet fuel prices.

In January, GOL achieved 38.5% domestic market share and 99.7% flight completion. This was made possible by diligent capacity management efforts in the previous months. The Company increased its capacity by 14.7% sequentially – driven by a more robust recovery at Brazil’s main airports such as Congonhas (São Paulo), a significant hub for corporate passengers, an essential pillar for strengthening profitability.

Beginning on March 27th, 2022, key changes have taken place in GOL’s network to support the robust recovery in the corporate segment. The Company increased the offer by 30% at Congonhas airport, and by 100% in Curitiba. The GOL hub in Salvador launched 10 new destinations: Belém, Cuiabá, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Goiânia, Palmas, Porto Alegre, Recife, São Luis and Campinas, representing a 33% growth in departures as compared to 1Q19.

“We strongly believe that this new network, carefully studied in recent months and being implemented as we speak, will position us to support ongoing demand growth – particularly in the corporate segment. Our single fleet is a unique competitive advantage, as it ensures us greater flexibility for rapid adjustments to our network,” said Celso Ferrer, COO.

 

Acceleration of the Transition to the Boeing 737 MAX and Related Sustainability Initiatives

In the first quarter, the Company received eight new Boeing 737 MAX-8 aircraft. The fleet’s transformation to new and more efficient technology plays a key role in GOL’s strategy for the coming years, chiefly driven by increased productivity and cost efficiencies. These new aircraft reduce fuel consumption by 15% and carbon emissions by 16%, while offering improved range and 30% less noise as compared to the Boeing 737 NG.

Among the eight 737-MAX received, three aircraft are under finance leases – reopening GOL’s portfolio of leased aircraft, which the Company anticipates will expand to 50-60% of new aircraft adopted in the coming years.

“The Boeing 737 is key to our long-term liquidity. This new aircraft drives more efficient operational results in addition to strengthening our balance sheet”, said Richard Lark, CFO.

 

Liquidity and Capital Structure Management

GOL’s primary focus during the pandemic was to maintain a balanced capital structure, using various liquidity sources to keep its liabilities at sustainable levels, as well as lowering future obligations to fall short of its industry peers. In the quarter, the preservation of the Company’s workforce, combined with diligent capacity management, enabled a highly efficient operation in the busy season – without the impact of flight cancellations resulting from the spike in Omicron cases. With a healthy balance sheet as compared to industry peers, GOL is now shifting its focus to enhancing fleet productivity and profitability through essential investments in Capex and the repayment of operating liabilities.

GOL’s liquidity (cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, trade receivables and deposits) totaled R$3.3 billion at the end of 1Q22. The Company’s short-term loans and financing was R$721 million. GOL has no significant debt amortizations in the next twelve months, and has long-term financing for the acquisition of new 737 MAX aircraft, a key part of the fleet transformation plan.

“Although we saw an increase in leverage due to the accelerated transition of our aircraft fleet, we are optimistic that the improvement in EBITDA will lead us to a net debt/EBITDA ratio of approximately 8x by the end of 2022,” added Richard Lark.

 

Enhancing the Customer Experience and Maintaining Safety as our #1 Value

Along with the strong demand recovery and the increase in the number of passengers transported, GOL saw a critical increase in its NPS by 7 points to 45 – an important service quality metric and the Company’s highest score since adopting the indicator.

In January, GOL was awarded by ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency) in the Safety & Security category, recognizing the Company’s continuous efforts to strengthen its #1 value – Safety. This InovANAC award aims to stimulate the innovation culture in civil aviation, rewarding innovative ideas and practices promoting operational safety.

 

GOL and American Airlines Conclude Agreement

On April 13, 2022, the exclusive codeshare agreement between GOL and American Airlines was finalized, including the closing of an equity investment into GOL by American Airlines in the amount of US$200 million (R$948.3 million) in 22.2 million newly issued preferred shares of the Company, reflecting a 5.3% participation in GOL’s economic interest. American Airlines was granted the right to appoint a member to the Company’s Board of Directors for the term of the exclusivity provided in the transaction. As a result of the issuance of the preferred shares, GOL shareholders are entitled to a pro rata preemptive subscription of preferred shares until May 13, 2022.

“The new, exclusive partnership between GOL and American Airlines will further enhance the travel experience for our Customers, primarily on routes connecting North and South America. The existing codeshare, in place since February 2020, already represented the largest route network in the Americas – enabling our passengers to travel seamlessly to more than 30 destinations in the U.S.,” commented Eduardo Bernardes, Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Clients.

 

Smiles: GOL’s Frequent-Flyer Program

Gross billing from Smiles grew 103.7% YoY and 15.4% sequentially to R$900.0 million. Notably, it increased by 43.6% as compared to the comparable pre-pandemic figure in 1Q19. The miles accumulated in the program totaled 49.5 billion in 1Q22, an increase of 150.7% and 73.6% over 1Q21 and 1Q19 respectively, illustrating the growing participation and increasing partners in GOL’s frequent flyer program.

 

Landmark Cargo and Logistics Services Agreement with Mercado Livre

This partnership represents a new milestone for the Company by launching a dedicated freighter fleet of six Boeing 737-800 BCF, which should begin operations in the second half of 2022, with the option of adding a further six cargo aircraft by 2025, reaching a total of twelve aircraft. Part of the aircraft used will be converted at GOL Aerotech, the Company’s maintenance unit.

Given this, GOLLOG plans to enhance its range of services and increase tonnage capacity 80% through 2023, generating approximately R$100 million in incremental revenue in 2022, and more than R$1.0 billion over the next five years.

GOL plans to end this year with 136 aircraft in its fleet, comprised of 44 Boeing 737-MAXs and 92 Boeing 737-NGs. The conversion of the six-cargo aircraft is expected to generate fleet optimization savings of approximately R$25 million in 2022 and a further R$75 million in 2023.

“Our cargo operation begins an exciting new chapter for GOL and GOLLOG, by integrating our synergies as the lowest cost operator in the region with the needs of Mercado Libre, the largest e-commerce platform in Latin America. This partnership not only increases the productivity of our fleet, but brings significant added value and will help to democratize logistics services for all Brazilians,” concluded Kakinoff.

ESG Initiatives

Currently, all our flights on the Recife - Fernando de Noronha and Congonhas - Bonito segments have all carbon emitted fully offset by the GOL and MOSS partnership. For voluntary emissions offset on other routes – in coordination with the Fleet and Supplies, Marketing, Products and Airports Teams – the Company launched a new convenient emissions offset service for all its Customers. Tickets issued at check-in will now have a QR Code on the back, directing them to MOSS website, where Customers can calculate and offset their carbon footprint on any GOL flight.

In early April, during the IATA (International Air Transportation Association) event “Wings of Change” in Santiago, Chile, GOL ratified its participation in 25by2025, a global initiative by the aviation industry to increase female participation in the industry. Currently, 35.3% of the Company’s leaders are female.

Non-Accounting Measures

To be consistent with industry practice, the Company discloses so-called non-GAAP financial measures, which are not recognized under IFRS or other accounting standards, including “Net Debt”, “Total Liquidity” and “EBITDA”. GOL’s Management believes that disclosure of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors, financial analysts, and the public in their review of its operating performance and their comparison of its operating performance to the operating performance of other airlines and other industries. However, these non-GAAP items do not have standardized meanings and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled items adopted by other companies. Potential investors should not rely on information not recognized under IFRS as a substitute for the GAAP measures of earnings or liquidity in making an investment decision.

Independent auditor’s report on review of interim financial information

 

 

 

To the Board of directors and shareholders of

Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A.

São Paulo – SP

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (the Company), comprised in the Quarterly Information Form for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, comprising the balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and the respective statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows for the period of three months then ended, including the footnotes.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual interim financial information in accordance with the NBC TG 21 – Interim Financial Reporting and of the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with the NBC TG 21 and with the international standard IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (Iasb), such as for the presentation of these information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Exchange Securities Commission, applicable to the preparation of interim financial information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Review scope

We conducted our review in accordance with the Brazilian and International standards on reviews of interim information (NBC TR 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). The review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the financial and accounting matters and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the audit standards and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the individual interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the individual interim financial information included in the quarterly information form referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 applicable to the preparation of interim financial information, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Conclusion on the consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the consolidated interim financial information included in the quarterly information form referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of interim financial information, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Emphasis of matter

Significant uncertainty as to the ability to continue as a going concern

We draw attention to Note 1.4, which states that the individual and consolidated interim financial information were prepared under the assumption of going concern. As described in the aforementioned note, the Company has faced impacts in operations due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, with an increase in net working capital deficit as of March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 and equity deficiency as of March 31, 2022 which, together with other events and conditions, indicate the existence of material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The plans and actions being developed by Management to restore the Company’s financial economic balance and financial position are described in Note 1. The individual and consolidated interim financial information do not include any adjustment that may arise from the result of such uncertainty. Our review conclusion is not qualified regarding this matter.

Other matters

Statements of value added

The quarterly information referred to above includes the individual and consolidated statements of value added for the period of three months ended March 31, 2022, prepared under the responsibility of the Company's management and presented as supplementary information for the purposes of IAS 34.
These statements were submitted to the same review procedures in conjunction with the review of the Company's interim financial information in order to conclude they are reconciliated to the interim financial information and to the accounting records, as applicable, and whether the structure and content are in accordance with the criteria established in the NBC TG 09 - Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying statements of value added were not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.

1.Operating Context

 

Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“Company” or “GOL”) is a limited liability company incorporated on March 12, 2004 under Brazilian laws. The Company’s bylaws states that the corporate purpose is exercising the equity control of GOL Linhas Aéreas S.A. (“GLA”), which provides scheduled and non-scheduled air transportation services for passengers and cargo, maintenance services for aircraft and components, develops frequent-flyer programs, among others.

 

The Company’s shares are traded on B3 S.A. - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3”) and on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker GOLL4 and GOL, respectively. The Company adopts B3’s Special Corporate Governance Practices Level 2 and is part of the Special Corporate Governance (“IGC”) and Special Tag Along (“ITAG”) indexes, created to distinguish companies that commit to special corporate governance practices.

 

The Company’s official headquarters are located at Praça Comandante Linneu Gomes, s/n, portaria 3, prédio 24, Jardim Aeroporto, São Paulo, Brazil.

 

1.1.    Impacts and Management’s Measures regarding Covid-19

 

The airline industry was significantly impacted in the first days of 2022 due to the significant growth in the number of Covid-19 cases, with the spread “omicron” variant, which led to the cancellation of flights by several companies in Brazil and in the world. Through its business model and dynamic operational air network management carried out by the Management since the beginning of the pandemic, GOL did not observe any impacts on its operation in the period, with regularity above 99% in January 2022 and market leadership in domestic routes with 38.5% market share this month. The flexible business model based on a single type of fleet proved to be decisive and suitable all instabilities caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

During March 2022, with the slowdown in registered cases of Covid-19, several states and cities suspended the use of face masks, as well as other health restrictions, which contributed to the continuity of the resumption of domestic demand.

 

In the first quarter of 2022, Company increased offer, measured by available seat kilometer (ASK), by 44.4% compared to the same period in 2021 and demand grew by 46.5% following the same comparison, load factor increased by 1.1 percentage points (from 79.9% in the first quarter of 2021 to 81.0% in the first quarter of 2022). In the scenario of gradual resumption of demand, Company had an income before financial results and income tax and social contribution of R$77,141, for the first time since the beginning of the pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020.

 

The Company, through its Executive Committee, which is entirely formed by the management board members, works promptly to support society, monitor demand, and define financial and operational strategies.

 

In 2022, GOL maintained the initiative to transport Covid-19 vaccines for free, with GOLLOG and health professionals to work directly in the fight against the pandemic, besides crediting 1,000 Smiles’ miles for each GOL flight, at no cost. There are also active and strict protocols for aircraft hygiene, as well as safety and health, together with actions to reduce human contact throughout the entire chain.

1.1.1    Impacts on the Parent Company and Consolidated Quarterly Information

 

The main pandemic’s impact continues to be related to the reduction in operational air network, to meet the lower demand and crew availability, which was verified by the lower Company’s net revenue compared to pre-pandemic periods.

 

The table below details the reclassifications made in the period, which are directly related to the Covid-19 pandemic and additional disclosures:

 

    Consolidated
Income Statement - Reclassifications   Cost of Services Other Revenues and Expenses, Net
Flight Equipment Depreciation - Idleness (a) 36,772 (36,772)

 

(a)Due to the drop in the number of flights operated, where the Company incurred with the burden of time, by analogy to the provisions of CPC 16 (R1) - Inventories, equivalent to IAS 2, expenses and depreciation of flight equipment not directly related to the revenues generated in the period, called idleness, were reclassified from the group of costs of services to the group of other revenues and expenses, net.

 

Like all other business organizations, the Company cannot foresee the duration of the pandemic and the extent of the impacts caused by it on future business, results, and cash generation. For this reason, when preparing this quarterly information, the Management considered the most recent forecasts available, duly reflected in the Company’s business plans. In the period ended March 31, 2022, no adjustment was needed regarding impairments on the Company’s Recoverable Taxes, Deferred Tax Assets, Property, Plant & Equipment, and Intangible Assets.

 

1.2.Measures taken by Management regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine

 

On February 24, 2022, Russia started a military invasion of Ukraine, marking a sharp escalation in the existing conflict between these countries. The invasion received widespread condemnation from the international community, including sanctions aimed at crippling the Russian economy.

 

As a result of the invasion, Brent and WTI oil prices rose significantly, quoted above US$100 a barrel in March 31, 2022, with a direct impact on jet fuel, as describe in Note 30.

 

GOL's Management works with the Brazilian Association of Airlines (ABEAR) in negotiations with the federal government to contain the price increase and the consequent transfer through the increase in ticket prices. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, given the increases in Brazilian jet fuel prices, Company reviewed financial projections, including its offer expectation measured by ASK.

The subsidiaries GAC Inc., GOL Finance and GOL Finance Inc. are entities incorporated with the specific purpose of continuing the financial operations and related to the Company's fleet. They do not have an independent management structure and are unable to make independent decisions, thus, the assets and liabilities of these entities are consolidated in the parent company.

 

GTX S.A., directly controlled by the Company, is in a pre-operational stage and its corporate purpose is to manage its own assets and participate in the capital of other companies.

 

Smiles Viagens e Turismo S.A. (“Smiles Viagens”), has as main purpose intermediate travel organization services, by booking or selling airline tickets, accommodation, tourism packages, among others. The subsidiaries Smiles Fidelidade Argentina S.A. and Smiles Viajes Y Turismo S.A., both headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, have the purpose to promote operations of the Smiles Program and the sale of airline tickets in that country.

The investment funds Airfim and Fundo Sorriso, controlled by GLA, have the characteristic of an exclusive fund and act as an extension to carry out operations with derivatives and investments, so that the Company consolidates the assets and liabilities of this fund in its financial statements.

 

1.4.Capital Structure and Net Current Capital

 

On March 31, 2022, the net working capital is negative by R$8,727,459 (negative by R$8,393,753 on December 31, 2021). There was a higher negative net working capital due to investments and obligations with customers to prepare for the high season. Of the negative net working capital, on March 31, 2022, R$4,111,696 refers to Advance Ticket Sales and the Frequent-Flyer Program (R$3,969,251 on December 31, 2021), which are expected to be substantially recognized with services provided by the Company.

 

On March 31, 2022, the Company also had a Deficit Attributed to Equity Holders of the Parent Company of R$18,127,117 (R$21,053,678 on December 31, 2021). The variation observed in the period ended March 31, 2022 is mainly due to the Company´s profit and the exchange rate, with evaluation of the Real against the U.S. Dollar.

 

The operations of the Company are sensitive to changes in the economic scenario and to the volatility of the Real, given that around 92.8% of its indebtedness (loans and financing and leases) are exposed to the U.S. dollar (“US$”) and 46.0% of its costs are also pegged to the U.S. currency, and its ability to adjust the price of fees charged from its customers to recapture the change of the US$ depends on the rational (offer) capacity and behavior of competitors.

 

Over the past five years, Management has taken many measures to adapt the size of GOL’s fleet to demand, matching the supply of seats to the level of demand and thus keeping high load factors, reducing costs and adjusting its capital structure, as well as implementing initiatives to restructure its balance sheet. In addition, the Company signed an exclusive codeshare agreement with American Airlines with a US$200 million investment made to the Company's capital, with effects in the financial information on second quarter 2022, as described in Note 36.

 

Our Parent Company and Consolidated Quarterly Information have been prepared on an accounting base of continuity, which includes the continuity of operations, realization of assets and compliance with liabilities and commitments in the usual course of business, in compliance with the business plan prepared by Management, reviewed and approved, at least annually, by GOL’s Board of Directors.

 

Although there is still significant uncertainty about how long it will take for the airline industry to recover, and this leads to a material uncertainty about our ability to remain in operation, on March 31, 2022, the parent company and consolidated quarterly information do not include any adjustments that may result from the inability to continue operating.

 

1.5.Compliance Program

 

Since 2016, we have taken several measures to strengthen and expand our internal control and compliance programs, which include:

·      hiring specialized companies to evaluate risks and review internal controls related to fraud and corruption;

·      integration the compliance and internal controls functions in the same department, which reports directly to our chief executive officer, and has independent access to our Board of Directors and Statutory Audit Committee;

 20 

Notes on the Parent Company and Consolidated Quarterly Information (ITR)

March 31, 2022

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais - R$, except when otherwise indicated)

·      monitoring transactions involving politically exposed persons;

·      improvement of supervision procedures of the execution of services hired from third parties;

·      updating our hiring policies and the management of our contracts flows; and

·      review of the Company’s Code of ethics, Manual of conduct and several compliance policies, including the mandatory training policy.

 

Management has been constantly reinforcing our commitment towards improvement of our internal control and compliance programs to our employees, customers and suppliers.

 

In December 2016, GOL entered into an agreement with the Brazilian Federal Public Ministry, pursuant to which agreed to pay R$12.0 million in fines and make improvements to our compliance program. In turn, the Federal Public Ministry agreed not to bring any criminal or civil suits related to activities that are the subject of the agreement. In addition, the Company paid R$4.2 million in fines to the Brazilian tax authorities.

 

The Company voluntarily informed the U.S. Department of Justice (“DoJ”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (“CVM”) of the external independent investigation hired by the Company and of the agreement with the Federal Public Ministry.

 

The external independent investigation, was concluded in April 2017, revealed that certain immaterial payments were made to politically exposed persons. None of our current employees, representatives or members of Company’s Board of Directors or Management knew of any illegal purpose behind any of the identified transactions or of any illicit benefit to the Company arising out of the investigated transactions.

 

The Company reported the conclusions of the investigation to the relevant authorities and will keep them informed of any developments, as well as collaborate and discuss their analysis with them, which may impose significant fines and possibly other sanctions.

 

1.6.Acquisition of MAP Transportes Aéreos

 

On June 8, 2021, GOL signed an agreement to acquire MAP Transportes Aéreos Ltda., a domestic Brazilian airline with routes to regional destinations and from Congonhas Airport in São Paulo, considering the Company's commitment to expand the air transportation demand and rationally consolidate in the domestic market as the country's economy recovers from Covid-19.

 

MAP will be acquired for R$28 million to be paid only after meeting all precedent conditions, through 100,000 preferred shares (GOLL4) at R$28.00 per share and R$25 million in cash in 24 monthly installments. At closing, the Company will assume up to R$100 million in MAP's financial commitments.

 

This transaction should bring as main benefits: (i) expanded new routes; (ii) higher seat supply to historically under-offered markets; and (iii) improved efficient operations.

 

On December 30, 2021, through SG Order 1929/2021, the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) approved the operation without restrictions. The transaction’s conclusion is subject to other conditions, which have not yet been fulfilled. Therefore, on March 31, 2022, there are no impacts on the Company's Parent Company and Consolidated Quarterly Information.

1.7.Acceleration of fleet transformation

 

Following the plan disclosed in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, GOL continued the execution of fleet transformation acceleration plan on March 31, 2022, receiving 8 Boeing 737-MAX aircraft though leasing contracts, 3 of which have purchase option.

 

The Boeing 737-MAX consumes around 15% less fuel and produces around 16% less carbon and 40% less noise, besides having a longer flight range when compared to Boeing 737-NG aircraft.

 

With the demand’s recovery, the advanced vaccination in several states and markets, operations are resuming pre-pandemic levels and macroeconomic variables linked to costs due to the jet fuel price significantly higher, there is an increased need to accelerate the replacement of the current fleet of 737 NG with the objective of operational efficiency gains.

 

In addition, the Company managed to obtain agreements to acquire new 737 MAX aircraft with more favorable conditions compared to the pre-pandemic period, due to new facility lines to finance these aircraft and balance the Company's financing portfolio.

 

Due to the fleet transformation, Company will return 737-NG aircraft, with relevant future disbursements estimated, as disclosed in Note 23.2, which may be compensated with deposits disclosed in Note 10.

10.1.Maintenance deposits

 

The Company makes deposits in US dollars for aircraft and engine overhauling, which will be used in future events as established in certain lease agreements. The Company has the right to choose to carry out the maintenance internally or through its suppliers.

 

Maintenance deposits do not exempt the Company, as a lessee, from contractual obligations related to the maintenance or the risk associated with operating activities. These deposits can be replaced by bank guarantees or letters of credit (SBLC - stand by letter of credit) as established in the aircraft lease. These letters can be executed by the lessors if the maintenance of the aircraft and engines does not occur according to the review schedule. Several aircraft lease agreements do not require maintenance deposits and have credit bills to ensure the maintenance is carried out in the scheduled periods. Until March 31, 2022, no credit bill had been executed against the Company.

 

The Company has two categories of maintenance deposits:

 

·Maintenance Guarantee: Refers to one-time deposits that are refunded at the end of the lease and can also be used in maintenance events, depending on negotiations with lessors. The balance of these deposits on March 31, 2022, was R$222,487 (R$262,061 on December 31, 2021).

 

·Maintenance Reserve: Refers to amounts paid monthly based on the use of components and can be used in maintenance events as set by an agreement. On March 31, 2022, the balance of these reserves was R$630,294 (R$738,934 on December 31, 2021).

 

10.2.Court Deposits

 

Court deposits and blocks represent guarantees of tax, civil and labor lawsuits, kept in court until resolving the disputes to which they are related. Part of the court deposits refers to civil and labor lawsuits arising from succession requests in lawsuits filed against Varig S.A. or also labor lawsuits filed by employees who do not belong to GLA or any related party. Bearing in mind that the Company is not a legitimate party to appear on the liability side of the said lawsuits, their exclusion and respective release of the retained funds are demanded whenever blocks occur.

The balances of goodwill and airport operating rights (slots) were tested for impairment on December 31, 2021 through the discounted cash flow for each cash-generating unit, giving rise to the value in use. The results obtained were compared with the carrying amount of each cash-generating unit and, as a result, the Company did not recognize impairment losses on its CGUs. On March 31, 2022, no indications of impairment on the cash-generating unit were identified.

 

In order to assess the recoverable value, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (Cash-Generating Units – “CGUs”). In order to determine the carrying amount of each cash-generating unit, the Company considers the intangible assets recorded and all necessary tangible assets to conduct the business, given that it will only generate economic benefits by using the combination of both.

23.1.Post-Employment Benefit

 

The Company offers to its employees health care plans that, due to complying with current laws, generate obligations with post-employment benefits.

 

The actuarial assumptions applied when measuring the post-employment benefit remain the same as those disclosed in the annual financial statements related to the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

23.2.Provisions for Aircraft and Engine Return

 

Such provision considers the costs that meet the contractual conditions for the return of engines maintained under operating leases, as well as the costs to reconfigure aircraft when returned as described in the return conditions of the lease agreements. The initial recognition is capitalized against Property, Plant & Equipment, under the item " Aircraft and Engine Overhauling".

 

The Company also has a provision for the return of aircraft and engines recorded against the “Cost of services”, considering the current conditions of the aircraft and engines and the forecast of use until the actual return. These provisions are measured at present value and will be disbursed until the aircraft and engines redelivery.

 

23.3.Provision for Legal Proceedings

 

On March 31, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal matters arising from the regular course of their business, which include civil, administrative, tax, social security, and labor lawsuits.

 

The Company's Management believes that the provision for tax, civil and labor risks, recorded in accordance with IAS 37, is sufficient to cover possible losses on administrative and judicial proceedings, as shown below:

 

  Consolidated
  Probable Loss Possible Loss
  March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021
Civil 177,910 188,500 65,090 55,193

Total 829,889 832,051 891,004 858,965

 

In September 2020, a class action complaint was filed against the Company and senior management in the federal courts of New York. The plaintiff is claiming alleged losses resulting from alleged misleading disclosure. In March 2022, the New York court decided to dismiss the case. Consequently, we have not made any provisions related to this matter.

 

Details about the other relevant lawsuits were disclosed in the annual financial statements related to the year ended December 31, 2021. In the period ended March 31, 2022, there were no other changes regarding new proceedings or reclassification of the relevant risk of loss.

Its sensitivity analysis of non-derivative financial instruments examined the impact on annual interest rates only for positions with material amounts on March 31, 2022 that were exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as the scenarios below show. The amounts show the impacts on Income (Expenses) according to the scenarios adopted below:

 

  Financial investments net of financial debt (a)
Risk CDI rate increase Libor rate increase
Reference rates 11.65% 0.51%
Exposure amount (probable scenario) (b) (904,557) (2,152,137)
Remote favorable scenario (-25%)  26,828  2,736
Possible favorable scenario (-10%)  10,731  1,094
Possible adverse scenario (+10%)  (10,731)  (1,094)
Remote adverse scenario (+25%)  (26,828)  (2,736)
(a)Refers to the sum of the amounts invested and raised in the financial market and indexed to the CDI and Libor rates.
(b)Book balances recorded as of March 31, 2022.

 

33.3.3.Exchange Rate

 

Foreign currency risk derives from the possibility of unfavorable fluctuation of foreign currency to which the Company’s liabilities or cash flows are exposed. The Company is mainly exposed to the exchange rate change of the U.S. dollar.

33.4.Credit Risk

 

Credit risk is inherent in the Company’s operating and financing activities, mainly in cash and cash equivalents, financial investments and trade receivables. Financial assets classified as cash, cash equivalents, and financial investments are deposited with counterparties rated investment grade or higher by S&P or Moody's (between AAA and AA-), pursuant to risk management policies.

 

Credit limits are set for all customers based on internal credit rating criteria and carrying amounts represent the maximum credit risk exposure. Customer creditworthiness is assessed based on an internal system of extensive credit rating. Outstanding trade receivables are frequently monitored by the Company.

 

Derivative financial instruments are contracted in the over-the-counter market (OTC) with counterparties rated investment grade or higher, or in a commodities and futures exchange (B3 or NYMEX), thus substantially mitigating credit risk. The Company's obligation is to evaluate counterparty risk involved in financial instruments and periodically diversify its exposure.

 

33.5.Liquidity risk

 

The Company is exposed to liquidity risk in two distinct ways: (i) market prices, which vary in accordance with the types of assets and markets where they are traded, and (ii) cash flow liquidity risk related to difficulties in meeting the contracted operating obligations at the maturity dates. In order to manage liquidity risk, the Company invests its funds in liquid assets (government bonds, CDBs and investment funds with daily liquidity) and its Cash Management Policy requires the weighted average maturity of its debt to be longer than the weighted average term of its investment portfolio term.

 

The schedules of financial liabilities held by the Company's financial liabilities on March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:
