EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

APSIS CONSULTORIA EMPRESARIAL Ltda. (APSIS) was retained by COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS and AMBEV S.A. to calculate the Shareholders’ Equity of each company by appraising their net equities pursuant to the same criteria and as of the same date, at market prices, for purposes of Section 264 of Law No. 6,404/76 (Brazilian Corporation Law).

The technical procedures employed in this report are in agreement with the criteria set forth by appraisal standards, and appraisal calculations for determining the value of assets were based on the income, asset, and market approaches.

This report presents the market value of the companies’ assets and liabilities used to adjust the Shareholders’ Equity, at book value, of both COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS and AMBEV S.A., through the asset approach.

CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING OF THE GROUP

On December 7th, 2012, COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS released a Material Fact Notice (Annex 1) regarding the proposed corporate restructuring to aimed at convert its current dual-class share structure, comprised of two types of shares (common and preferred ), into a single-class share structure comprised exclusively of common shares.

The corporate restructuring proposal shall be effected by means of the merger into the asset base of AMBEV S.A., a company controlled by Interbrew International B.V. (“IIBV”), a subsidiary of Anheuser-Busch InBev S.A./N.V. (“ABI”), of all of the shares issued by COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS that are not held by Ambev S.A. on the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting that resolves on the matter (“Stock Swap Merger”).

Such Stock Swap Merger shall result in the delivery of common shares issued by AMBEV S.A. to the common and preferred shareholders of COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS.

For purposes of the Stock Swap Merger, equal value shall be attributed to the common and preferred shares of COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS.

The corporate restructuring included preliminary steps to the Stock Swap Merger, including the contribution to Ambev S.A.’s capital of the totality of COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS shares indirectly held by ABI through IIBV and AmBrew S.A. (“AmBrew”), also a subsidiary of ABI (stock contribution).

Such preliminary steps are adjusted for purposes of appraising the net equity of AMBEV S.A., in order to ensure that the ratio herein calculated reflects AMBEV S.A.’s situation immediately prior to the Stock Swap Merger.

4. APPRAISAL METHODOLOGIES

ASSETS APPROACH: NET EQUITY AT MARKET PRICE

This methodology is derived from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in which financial statements are prepared based on the principle of historic cost or acquisition cost. Due to this principle and to the fundamental principles of accounting, the book value of the assets of a company less the book value of its liabilities is equal to the book value of its net equity.

The application of this methodology starts with the book value of assets and liabilities, and requires that some of these items be adjusted so as to reflect their probable liquidation value. The result of the application of this method may provide an initial basis for estimating a company’s value, as well as a useful basis of comparison with results from other methodologies.

On the other hand, the basic principles of economics allow us to create the following appraisal technique: the value defined for assets less the value defined for liabilities is equal to the value defined for a company’s net equity. From an appraisal perspective, the relevant definitions of value are those appropriate for the objective of the appraisal.

The assets approach, therefore, aims to appraise a company by adjusting its book value (net balance) to its respective fair market value. Assets and liabilities deemed relevant are appraised at their fair market value, with a comparison being made between this value and its book value (net balance).

The general appraisal criteria applied to the adjustment of assets subject to appraisal at market prices are further detailed in Chapter 6 of this Report.

These adjustments, after being duly analyzed, are then added to Shareholders’ Equity at book value, thus determining the company’s market value through the assets approach. The company’s fair market value shall be the value of its Shareholders’ Equity considering the adjustments made for the appraised assets and liabilities.

It is important to note that the identification and quantification of off-balance sheet liabilities or liabilities not disclosed by the companies’ managements were not within the scope of our work.

The methodology and scope adopted were intended to appraise the companies as a going concern. Therefore, expenses incurred in asset liquidation or debt collection, as well as related to bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings, were not contemplated in the calculations contained herein.

INCOME APPROACH: RELIEF FROM ROYALTIES APPROACH

For the valuation of trademarks, the chosen methodology is a derivation of the income approach for the valuation of trademarks, recommended when the payment of royalties is a common practice in the industry. Such approach, known as the Relief-from-Royalty Approach (Relief-from-Royalty Approach, Valuation of Intellectual Property and Intangible Assets – Smith, Parr), is based on the incremental cash flow after taxes, derived from the fact that the company no longer will have to pay royalties to third-parties for the use of a specific brand/trademark. The trademark’s fair value may then be attributed to the cash flow generated from these savings, brought to present value, and applying a discount rate that represents the associated risk. Since trademarks do not have a measurable lifespan, perpetuity is also added to the cash flow.

Represented substantially by:

 

¡  Suppliers and accrued expenses;

 

¡  Indirect taxes payable (ICMS, PIS, COFINS etc.);

COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS DAS AMÉRICAS - AMBEV

Brazilian Taxpayer (CNPJ) No. 02.808.708/0001-07

NIRE 35.300.157.770

Public Company

MATERIAL FACT NOTICE

Pursuant to CVM Instruction No. 358/2002, Companhia de Bebidas das Américas – AmBev (the “Company” or “AmBev”) hereby announces that it intends to propose for deliberation by the Company’s shareholders, at an extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting of the Company to be convened in the first half of 2013 (the “EGM”), a corporate restructuring to transition the Company’s current dual stock capital structure comprised of voting common shares (“ON”) and non-voting preferred shares (“PN”) to a new, single-stock capital structure comprised exclusively of voting common shares.

The purpose of the proposed corporate restructuring is to simplify AmBev’s corporate structure and improve its corporate governance with a view to increasing liquidity to all shareholders, eliminating certain operating and administrative costs and providing more flexibility for management of the Company’s capital structure.

Steps for the Corporate Restructuring

If approved, the proposed restructuring will be implemented by means of a stock swap merger under the Brazilian Corporations Law (the “Stock Swap Merger”) according to which, as a result of an affirmative shareholder vote, all issued and outstanding shares of AmBev, including in the forms of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) but excluding AmBev shares and ADRs held by InBev Participações S.A. (“InBev Part.”), a company controlled by Interbrew International B.V. (“IIBV”), which in turn is a subsidiary of Anheuser-Busch InBev S.A./N.V. (“ABI”), shall be exchanged for newly-issued common shares and ADRs of InBev Part. As a result of the Stock Swap Merger, all holders of AmBev’s preferred and common shares (including in the form of ADRs), other than InBev Part., will receive newly-issued common shares and, in some cases, ADRs of InBev Part. in exchange for their existing AmBev equity securities. For purposes of the Stock Swap Merger, equal value will be ascribed to each common and preferred share of AmBev.

The corporate restructuring described above will also include certain preliminary steps to the Stock Swap Merger, including the contribution to InBev Part. of all AmBev shares indirectly held by ABI through IIBV and AmBrew S.A. (“AmBrew”), which also is a subsidiary of ABI. Nonetheless, these preliminary steps will not affect the Stock Swap Merger’s exchange ratio to be proposed at the Stock Swap Merger EGM or dilute AmBev’s shareholders.

The simplified organizational chart set forth below shows the current corporate structure of the Company and its corporate structure following the Stock Swap Merger:

 

LOGO

Procedures for Approval

Minority holders of both the common and preferred shares of AmBev will participate in the deliberation process that will evaluate the Stock Swap Merger. During the Stock Swap Merger EGM, the minority holders of AmBev preferred shares will have the opportunity to separately express their opinion on the transaction.

ABI and Fundação Antonio e Helena Zerrener Instituição Nacional de Beneficência (“FAHZ”) have already informed the Company’s management that they will defer to the opinion on the Stock Swap Merger that the Company’s other common and preferred shareholders shall separately express at the Stock Swap Merger EGM.

To this end, ABI and FAHZ will either abstain from voting or will vote their common shares in a manner to ensure that the implementation of the Stock Swap Merger shall be a result of the favorable opinion of minority holders of both the common and preferred shares of AmBev.

Governance After the Restructuring

The common shares of InBev Part. will confer to its holders the same rights and privileges currently conferred by the common shares of AmBev. The bylaws of InBev Part. (which will have its corporate name changed to AmBev S.A. if the Stock Swap Merger is approved) will be substantially identical to the Company’s current bylaws, except that: (i) the minimum mandatory dividend will be increased from 35% to 40% of adjusted net income for the year and (ii) the board of directors will include two independent members.

 

32


Table of Contents

The terms of the Company’s current shareholders’ agreement to which AmBrew, IIBV and FAHZ are parties (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”) will remain unchanged when they become applicable to InBev Part., which at that point will have been renamed AmBev S.A. In addition, the referred parties have already initiated discussions to renegotiate new terms for the Shareholders’ Agreement to become effective on July 1, 2019. These new terms will be disclosed in due course once negotiations are finalized.

Additional Information

Prior to the Stock Swap Merger EGM, InBev Part. intends to submit to the Brazilian Securities Commission (“CVM”) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) all applicable registration applications that may be required in connection with the transaction in order to permit that, as soon as reasonably possible, the shares of InBev Part. to be received by AmBev’s shareholders as a result of the Stock Swap Merger be tradeable on the São Paulo Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (“BM&FBOVESPA”) and, in the form of ADRs, on the New York Stock Exchange.

Following the conclusion of all proceedings for the transfer of the Company’s operations to InBev Part., it is intended that AmBev, which at that point will have become a wholly-owned subsidiary of InBev Part., shall be merged with and into InBev Part. together with other subsidiaries of the Company with a view to further simplifying the group’s corporate structure, reducing operating costs and capturing approximately R$105 million in goodwill currently existing at the InBev Part. level, thereby sharing this benefit with all of AmBev’s shareholders.

Pursuant to Section 137 of the Brazilian Corporations Law, those common shareholders of the Company who do not vote in favor of the Stock Swap Merger will be entitled to withdraw from the Company by exercising appraisal rights. To be eligible to exercise appraisal rights, holders of AmBev common shares must continuously hold their shares as from the close of trading on December 7, 2012 until their exercise of those rights.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY OF MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT

METHOD OF COST QUANTIFICATION

DEPRECIATION BY HELIO CAIRES METHOD

This method consists in obtaining the value of a machine and/or equipment, new, exactly state or similar, through market research with manufacturers, suppliers and / or representatives, plus, if applicable, the costs of assembly, installation and transportation.

It is made a research of prices of new objects according to its manufacturers or similar, with the application of depreciation for the definition of the market value. It analyzes the physical and technological characteristics of the objects, covering the various functions, operations performance (output, the produced product quality, the unit cost for each produced part), built structures (frame, drives and controls) and optional items, among others.

For the identification of depreciation, in addition to the features observed in the inspection, are also considered useful life, lived life, residual values, the state of conservation and the obsolescence of the object. The depreciation will be calculated from the useful life probable variation curve. Thus, the market value of the equipment used will be determined from the value of new equipment’s, considering lived age and residual value, indexed to a curve or mathematical function, which is limited by the useful life of the object.

Having the characteristics and values, we compared the machinery and equipment, assigning to each relevant depreciation value.

The choice of the function that defines the coefficient of depreciation was done according to the type of equipment assessed, choosing the method of Caires.

This method allows calculating the depreciation coefficient, according to the conditions of maintenance and workload.

OBJECTS AGE OR OPERATIONAL AGE (t):

Operational ages will be determined by sectors of production, depending on the workload. For machines with more advanced operational ages, due to the fact of having suffered reforms and being in good condition, we adopted the concept of “apparent age”.

ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE (T)

According to secondary primary concepts of mechanical project, every machine is formed by the composition of elements which, when initiating its operational life, follows the law of decreasing its work capability, which is generally represented by 3 (three) cycles:

SOFTENING: cycle of adjustment with loss of material. Later it tends to be an improvement in its functioning.

OPERATION: cycle where the machine is in its normal capacity of production and the loss of material to wear is slow and insignificant; however, during

certain time called “Operational Lifetime”, the set loses its operational capacity to the point where it must suffer a partial or complete reconditioning before an irreversible collapse.

COLLAPSE: this cycle, the removal of material occurred during the operation stage culminates in the collapse, making the machine sunk, leaving only what is called “State or Residual Value.”

The useful life will be determined by the type of equipment and industrial sector in question, by using engineering tables.

Residual Value (RV)

The residual value stems from the operational lifetime of the object, corresponding to what is left of the machine after the end of their operational lifetime, given in percentages, as a rule, lie in the range of 5 to 20% of the value of new equipment. This variation follows the following principles:

Machines that operate producing parts with small tolerances and low chances of reinstatement may have high residual value, if they can be reused in other lines.

Machines that do not allow rebuilds, but preserves the components for reuse have residual value relative to the value of the same and the balance in junk.

Machines that do not allow refurbishment and reuse of parts have residual value equivalent of junk.

 

 

LOGO   41    Report SP-0050/13-01 - Annex 2B     


Table of Contents

For machinery, equipment and facilities evaluated in this study, the residual value was considered as a percentage of 1% to 10% of the replacement value of the object.

OTHER IMPORTANT OBSERVATIONS ADOPTED IN THIS MODEL

The cycle life adopted for the COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS’ fixed assets were rectified and/or ratified based on information adopted for the COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS’ segment. Therefore, the site visit in loco was not applied for all company’s units, once APSIS already had a historical database and experience for this depuration, where the checkpoint was applied and the checklist was filled evaluating the operation and condition of the environment.

For the remaining useful life, was identified, through a site visit in strategic units, that there is a preventive maintenance plan.

ROYALTY TAX

 

 

Applied a 7.0% medium tax over Net Operating Revenue generated by each trademark.

 

  

¡  Considered the medium royalty used in trademark licensed by the company.

 

ROYALTY SAVINGS

 

It was considering the following values for royalty savings generated by revenues of each trademark:

 

¡  BRAZIL: R$ 1,022 million in YEAR 01, R$ 1,168 million in YEAR 02, R$ 1,337 million in YEAR 03, R$ 1,535 million in YEAR 04 and R$ 1,767 million in YEAR 05.

¡  To calculate the royalty savings value it was applied the medium royalty, discounted by the income tax, over the net revenue, as it follows:

 

¡    NOR x ROYALTY x (1-Income Tax), being 5,0% royalty and 34,0% of Income Tax.

INCOME TAX

  The COMPANHIA DE BEBIDAS is taxed in actual profit.   

¡  Using fixed rate of 34.0%, as:

      

 

¡    Income Tax = 25.0%

        

 

¡    Social Contribution = 9.0%

DISCOUNT RATE DETERMINATION

The Discount Rate was calculated using CAPM – Capital Asset Pricing Model, model which the cost of equity is determined by the cost of the equity of the own company.

Highlighted beneath there are the main sources of parameters to determine the discount rate:

 

  ¡  

Risk Free Rate (cost of equity): Corresponds to yield, in 12/31/2012, of US T-Bond 30 years (Federal Reserve), site http://www.treas.gov/offices/domestic-finance/debt-management/interest-rate/yield_historical.shtml

 

  ¡  

Beta d: equivalent to the media Beta of the sector, search in Bloomberg’s data base. The data supplied by this program are leveraged betas of different companies, with same relative capital structure. The beta was deleveraged in each company, considering their capital structure. Therefore, it was found the Gross beta. It was calculated the media of the Gross beta, and then it was leveraged with the sector capital structure.

 

  ¡  

Premium Risk: correspond to the Spread between SP500 and US T-Bond 30 years, published by Ibbotson with long-term market

   

analyzes (stock, inflation etc.). Source: 2012 Ibbotson SBBI Valuation Yearbook: Appendix C, Table C-1. EUA: Morningstar, 2012;

 

  ¡  

Size premium: corresponds to the Premium by the risk of the size of the company, considering the American stock exchange. Source:

2012 Ibbotson SBBI Valuation Yearbook: Appendix C, Table C-1. EUA: Morningstar, 2012;

 

  ¡  

Risk Brazil: Portal Brasil (31/12/2012), site http://www.portalbrasil.net/indices_dolar.htm;

 

  ¡  

The United States inflation was projected at 2.0% per year.

To summarize, with the parameters used to calculate, the result was a real discount rate of 12.6% per year.

TRADEMARK VALUE CALCULATION

From the Royalty Savings net revenue projected for the next 05 years and the residual value since then (considering real growth of 4.5% perpetually), it results in the trademark operating value, using the discount rate described in the previous topic.
