1. General information and Significant Events during the period

 

1.1. General information

 

DLocal Limited (“dLocal” or the “Company”) is a holding company, referred to together with its subsidiaries as the “Group”. dLocal is a limited liability company. The Group was established on October 5, 2016, under the holding company dLocal Group Limited, domiciled and incorporated in Malta, and on April 14, 2021 it was reorganized under dLocal, domiciled and incorporated in the Cayman Islands. The Company is the ultimate controlling party of the Group.

 

The Group processes online payment transactions, enabling enterprise merchants located in developed economies (mainly United States, Europe and China) to get paid (“payins”) from customers in emerging markets and to make payments (“payouts”) to customers in emerging markets. As of the date of issuance of this Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, the Group continued to focus on its expansion efforts bringing the total number of countries in the geographic network to 39.

 

In order to conduct its business, the Group has direct connections with banks, acquirers and payments processors to process payments locally in emerging markets. It also operates with financial institutions to expatriate/ repatriate the funds to/from the developed economies where the merchant customers elect to settle their funds in the currency of their preference (mainly U.S. Dollar and Euro). These consolidated condensed interim financial statements include dLocal’s subsidiaries and details of the structure are included under Note 4: Consolidation of subsidiaries.

 

The Group is licensed and regulated in the EU as an Electronic Money Issuer, or EMI, and Payment Institution, or PI, and registered as a Money Service Business with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or FinCEN, and we operate and are licensed, as applicable, in 39 in emerging markets, primarily in the Americas, Asia and Africa.

 

In addition, the Group is subject to laws aimed at preventing money laundering, corruption and the financing of terrorism. This regulatory landscape is constantly changing, including as a consequence of the implementation of the Fourth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (Directive 2015/849/EU, “MLD4”) and the proposed amendments to the MLD4, often referred to as the fourth Anti-Money Laundering Directive.

2. Presentation and preparation of the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements and significant accounting policies

 

2.1. Basis of preparation of consolidated condensed interim financial information

 

These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board.

 

These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual consolidated financial statement. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Financial Statements”).

 

The accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgments adopted, except for those explicitly indicated on these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.

 

All amounts are presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars except share data or as otherwise indicated.

 

These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were authorized for issuance by the dLocal’s Board of Directors on November 14, 2022.

 

2.2. Share-based payments

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 , the Group granted new share options and restricted share units under the Amended and Restated 2020 Global Share Incentive Plan to executives and employees in return for their services, which represented changes in the composition of share options outstanding at the end of the period.

2.3. New accounting pronouncements

 

The Group has not early adopted the following standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective:

 

Amendments to IAS 1 - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Disclosure of Accounting Policies

Amendments to IAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates
Amendments to IAS 12 - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction

 

On January 23, 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements to clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current. The amendments include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity. The amendments clarify, not change, existing requirements, and so are not expected to affect Group’s financial statements significantly. This amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and is to be applied retrospectively. Earlier application is permitted.
On February 12, 2021, the IASB issued 'Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2)' to help preparers in deciding which accounting policies to disclose in their financial statements. The management of the Company does not anticipate that the application of this amendment will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company has not opted for early application.
On February 12, 2021, the IASB issued 'Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS 8)' providing a new definition of accounting estimates to help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates. The management of the Company does not anticipate that the application of this amendment will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company has not opted for early application.
On May 7, 2021, the IASB issued 'Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction (Amendments to IAS 12)' clarifying that the initial recognition exemption does not apply to transactions in which equal amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences arise on initial recognition. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company has not opted for early application.

 

The Group did not change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of new accounting standards made applicable on January 1, 2022.


 

3. Accounting estimates and judgments

 

Accounting estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

 

The critical accounting estimates and judgments adopted on these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.


4. Consolidation of subsidiaries

 

DLocal Limited, located in Cayman Islands, is the parent company of the Group and acts as a holding company for subsidiaries whose main activity is cross-border and local payments, enabling international merchants to access end customers in emerging markets. Its revenue comes from dividends receivable from subsidiaries and share of profit from subsidiary partnership.

The Group operates in a single operating segment, which is “payment processing”. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker, who in the Group’s case is the Executive Team, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Executive Team is composed of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), the Chief Operating Officer (“COO”), the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and the President of Dlocal Limited.

 

The Executive Team evaluates the Group’s financial information and resources and assesses the financial performance of these resources on a consolidated basis on the basis of Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as further described below.

 

The Group’s revenue, results and assets for this one reportable segment can be determined by reference to the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Condensed Statement of Financial Position.

 

As required by IFRS 8 Operating Segments, below are presented applicable entity-wide disclosures related to dLocal’s revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

 

The Executive Team assesses the financial performance of the Group’s sole segment by Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. The Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the consolidated profit from operations before financing and taxation for the year or period, as applicable, before depreciation of property, plant and equipment, amortization of right-of-use assets and intangible assets, and further excluding the changes in fair value of financial assets and derivative financial instruments carried at fair value through profit or loss, impairment gain/loss on financial assets, transaction costs, share-based payment non-cash charges, secondary offering expenses and inflation adjustment. The Group defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as the Adjusted EBITDA divided by consolidated revenues.

The Group reconciles the segment’s performance measure to profit for the period as presented in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Statements of Comprehensive Income as follows:

(e) Earnings per share

 

dLocal calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

For diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of dLocal by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average number of common shares that would be issued on conversion of all dilutive potential common shares into common shares.

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement the Group applies the simplified approach to determine expected credit losses on trade receivables.

 

To measure the expected credit losses, trade and other receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due (only 0-30 past due bucket as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 because there are no other material buckets of the outstanding receivables).

 

The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of debtors over a period of 36 months before year end and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rate is adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on credit risk ratings of the countries in which the Group sells its services which affects the ability of the debtors to settle the receivables. On that basis, the average expected credit loss rate of the 0-30 past due bucket was determined at 0.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (0.1% in the nine months ended September 30, 2021).

(1) During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, dLocal entered into hedge operations of trade and other receivables in Brazilian Reais, Argentine Peso, Chilean Peso, Uruguayan Peso, Egyptian Pound, Nigerian Naira, Indian Rupee, and South African Rand subject to foreign exchange exposure using delivery and non-delivery forward contracts. The transactions have been elected for hedge accounting and classified as fair value hedge in accordance with IFRS 9. The Group has elected to designate only the spot element of these forward contracts as the hedging instrument, except in hedges of Uruguayan Peso and Chilean Peso. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, dLocal recognized a net gain of USD 11,071 included in the line item "Costs of services" related to the effective portion of the change in the spot rate of the hedged currency and a net loss of USD 11,912 included in the line item "Finance costs" related to the implicit interest rate (a net gain of USD 6,856 and a net loss of USD 7,691, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2022).

 

(2) During the last quarter of the year-ended December 31, 2021, dLocal entered into hedge operations of trade and other receivables in Chilean Peso subject to foreign exchange exposure using the delivery forward contracts. The transactions have been elected for hedge accounting and classified as fair value hedge in accordance with IFRS 9.

 

Option to purchase common shares

 


As of the beginning of the nine months ended September 30, 2021, DLocal Limited had an option agreement in place with one shareholder (“Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor had outstanding options to purchase up to 18,068,000 common shares from certain existing shareholders, or by direct issuance of Company shares, which could be exercised by the Investor on or before December 16, 2021.

 

On March 3, 2021, the investor exercised the right to purchase 18,068,000 Class A Ordinary shares in DLocal Group Limited, by acquiring them from other existing shareholders, without being required the issuance of new shares by dLocal. In this sense, as of March 3, 2021 the obligations of dLocal under this agreement have ceased.

 

Considering that as of December 31, 2020 the derivative financial instrument represented a liability for dLocal of USD 2,896, a gain for the same amount was recognized within Operating profit in the line item “Other operating gain/(loss)” in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Statements of Comprehensive Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

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

 

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

 

The table also includes financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The Group understands that the book value of such instruments approximates their fair value.

Level 3 Financial Instruments

 

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021., the Group has recognized a contingent consideration liability amounting to USD 665, classified in Level 3. The amount of the Level 3 contingent consideration was calculated by the finance team of the Group, using a discounted cash flow analysis, considering the expected cash flows based on terms of the contract, the entity’s knowledge of the business and how the current conditions are likely to impact it. As described in note 1.3.e to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, such contingent liability is capped in USD 665 thousands, and was paid on July 29, 2022.

 

There were no changes in level 3 items for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Also, there were no transfer of items between level 2 and level 3, acquisitions, disposals nor gains or losses recognized in profit for the period related to level 3 instruments.

On October 27, 2022, Sumita Pandit step down as dLocal's Chief Operating Officer to pursue other opportunities. Ms. Pandit will serve as a consultant for dLocal on an interim basis, ensuring a smooth transition and supporting the company as her responsibilities are effectively transitioned to other team members. Jacobo Singer has been appointed as the new President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, effective immediately, following the decision of Sumita to step down from that position.

 

In early November 2022, the Company utilized FTX Trading Ltd. (“FTX”) banking services and had deposits of USD 5.6 million whose withdrawals were not processed by FTX yet. On November 11, 2022, FTX filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States. dLocal´s management is closely monitoring this situation and assessing the recoverability of this cash position. As of the date of the issuance of these financial statements, we are not working with any other crypto exchange as banking service, and our exposure to the crypto ecosystem is minimal as processing FIA payments for crypto exchanges represented less than 0.3% of our TPV in the third quarter of 2022.
