Report on review of interim condensed

consolidated financial statements

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Semantix Tecnologia em Sistema de Informação Ltda.

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial position of Semantix Tecnologia em Sistema de Informação Ltda. and its subsidiaries (“Company”) as at June 30, 2022 and the related condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and explanatory notes.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed interim financial statements based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial 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). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for 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 Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently did 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

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022

(In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated)

Note 1. General Information

Semantix Tecnologia em Sistema de Informação S.A. (“Company” or “Semantix”) is a privately held corporation, based in São Paulo - SP, which began operations in 2007. The Company and its subsidiaries (jointly, “the Group”) are engaged in the provision of big data, data analytics and artificial intelligence, developing disruptive solutions and platforms as a one-stop-shop for data driven solutions. The Group provides software as a service (“SaaS”) and platform as a service (“PaaS”) as its core business, with a focus on providing complete solutions in data integration, data engineering, analytics, data sharing and governance, and artificial intelligence and machine learning tools to assist with automation.

The issuance of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements was authorized by the Board of Directors on August 31, 2022.

Note 2. Basis of preparation and accounting

 

a)

Basis for preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statement

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in an annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. Additionally, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the hedge accounting (see note 3) and the adoption of new and amended standards as set out below.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“BRL”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousands, except when otherwise indicated.

 

b)

New standards, interpretations, and amendments adopted by the Group

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the June 30, 2022 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group is still in the process of analyzing the complete impact of such new standards for future periods.

 

c)

Critical estimates and accounting judgments

Management has made judgments and estimates that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 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. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.


Semantix Tecnologia em Sistema de Informação S.A.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022

(In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated)

 

In preparing these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments and estimates made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that are set at the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and no retrospective adjustments were made.

Note 3. Significant new accounting policies adopted by the Group

Derivatives and hedging activities

The Group designated certain loan contracts as hedging instruments, which included derivatives to cover foreign currency risk, as cash flow hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading valuation of the effective portion of derivative financial instruments. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the fair value of derivative financial instrument line item within the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

The Group designates certain non-derivative financial liabilities, such as foreign currency borrowings, as hedging instruments for hedge of foreign currency risk associated with highly probable forecasted transactions. Accordingly, the Group applies cash flow hedge accounting to such relationships. Remeasurement gain/loss on such non-derivative financial liabilities is recorded in the Group’s hedging reserve as a component of equity and reclassified to the consolidated statement of profit or loss as revenue in the period corresponding to the occurrence of the forecasted transactions.

Upon initial designation of a hedging instrument, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item, including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction and the hedged risk, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship.

Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to consolidated statement of profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, in the same line of the consolidated income statement as the recognized hedged item. However, when the hedged forecast transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial asset or non-financial liability.

When a derivative expires or is sold, when hedge accounting criteria are no longer met or when the entity revokes the hedge accounting designation, any cumulative gain or loss existing in other comprehensive income will be reclassified to income at the time the expected transaction occurs or is no longer expected to occur.

a) Hedge ineffectiveness

Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument.

To evaluate the effectiveness and to measure the ineffectiveness of such strategies, the Group uses the dollar offset method. The dollar offset method is a quantitative method that consists of comparing the change in fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument with the change in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk.

Note 4. Restatement of previous financial statements

LinkAPI Transactions

In connection with the preparation of the Group’s financial statements as of December 31, 2021, the Company determined it should restate its previously reported financial statements as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. Previously the Group did not consider accounting for two transactions that were incurred in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, as follows: (a) the Group committed to make a payment on January 31, 2022 in the amount of R$3,000 for the acquisition of a data integration platform from LinkAPI’s sellers upon delivery to Semantix. In June 2021, this data integration platform was delivered to Semantix. As such, an intangible asset and liability should have been recorded; and (b) as part of the LinkAPI acquisition, the Group committed to make a payment on January 31, 2022 in the amount of R$4,858, to LinkAPI’s sellers if they remained with the Group and certain LinkAPI financial performance metrics were met to incentivize retention and performance of LinkAPI’s sellers.

Accordingly, effective with this filing, the Group presents: (a) adjustments to record the data integration platform within Intangible assets, net and the liability for the future payment of R$3,000 to LinkAPI’s sellers within Other liabilities, and (b) the retention and performance bonuses for key personnel of LinkAPI in General and Administrative Expenses.

The impact of the restatement on the Group’s financial statements as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 is reflected in the following table:

Non-controlling Interest - Tradimus

In connection with the preparation of the Group’s financial statements as of December 31, 2021, the Company determined it had inappropriately calculated the non-controlling interest related to its Tradimus investment and should restate its previously reported financial statements as of June 30, 2021 in the amount of R$1,174.

Accordingly, effective with this filing, the Group adjusted Accumulated Loss and Non-controlling Interest, resulting in an adjustment to the Statement of Financial Position and the Statement of Changes in Equity.

Corporate income tax and social contribution on net income were calculated in accordance with applicable law. The Group has operations in countries with different tax regimes.

The corporate income tax (“IRPJ”) was calculated at the basic rate of 15% on taxable income plus the additional 10%, according to specific legislation, and the social contribution on profit (“CSLL”) was calculated at the rate of 9% on taxable income. The tax on profit, before tax, differs from the theoretical value that would be obtained with the use of the weighted average tax rate, applicable to the profits of Brazilian companies.

Note 17. Related parties

Balances and transactions between the Group and its subsidiaries, which are related parties, have been eliminated on consolidation and are not disclosed in this note.

There were no reportable transactions between related parties in the Group and members of the key management personnel and their close family members during the six-month period ended on June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Note 18. Losses per share

Basic losses per share is calculated by dividing profit attributable to the Company shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available during the period. Diluted losses per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares, presuming the conversion of all the potential diluted common shares.

Since the Company reported a loss for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the number of shares used to calculate diluted loss per share of common shares attributable to common shareholders is the same as the number of shares used to calculate basic loss per share of common shares attributable to common shareholders for the period presented because the potentially dilutive shares would have been antidilutive if included in the calculation.

The tables below show data of income and shares used in calculating basic and diluted losses per share attributable to the common shareholders of the Company:

Fair value hierarchy

Financial instruments are classified at fair value through profit or loss, when this classification significantly reduces a possible measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as “accounting mismatch”) that would occur due to the measurement of assets or liabilities or the recognition of their gains and losses on different bases. Gains/losses on financial instruments that are measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognized as financial income or expense in the profit or loss for the period.

This section provides details about the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognized and measured at fair value in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

 

Financial assets

   June 30, 2022      December 31, 2021  

Derivatives financial instruments - Level 2

     1,603        1,308  

 

Financial liabilities

   June 30, 2022      December 31, 2021  

Derivatives financial instruments - Level 2

     5,776        —    

Transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels are analyzed at the end of each consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2022 the Group had no transfers between level 1 and level 2. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no financial instruments classified as level 1 and level 3.

Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

During 2021 and 2022, the Group entered into loans denominated in foreign currency and in order to protect against the risk of change in the foreign exchange rates entered into derivative financial instruments (swap and non deliverable forward “NDF”) with Itau and Citibank (see note 10). Therefore, the derivative financial instruments are not speculative. The Group had a derivative financial asset and derivative financial liability of R$1,603 and R$5,776, respectively, as of June 30, 2022.

b)

Financial risk management

The Group’s activities expose it to various financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s global risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on financial performance.

Risk management is carried out by the financial board, according to the policies approved by the Board of Directors. The financial board identifies, evaluates and protects the Group against any financial risks. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Financial risk factors have not changed since the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

c)

Capital Management

The policy of the Group is to maintain a strong capital base to secure investor, creditor, and market confidence and also to sustain future development of the business. Management monitors the return on capital, as well as the dividend yield to ordinary shareholders.

(In thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated)

 

In addition, the Group objectives to manage capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital, and to have resources available for optimistic opportunities.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure of the Group, management can make, or propose to the shareholders when their approval is required, adjustments to the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets.

The Group monitors capital based on the net cash / net debt.

The Group’s strategy is to keep a positive net cash.

Financial covenants

On June 30, 2022, the amount of contracts under financial covenants is R$107,779 (December 31, 2021—R$78,796). The Company has complied with these contract conditions as of June 30, 2022, see note 10.

Eventual failure of the Company to comply with such covenants may be considered as breach of contract and, as a result, considered for early settlement of related obligations.

Note 21. Subsequent events

 

(i)

SPAC Closing

On August 3, 2022, Semantix, Inc. (“New Semantix”) and Alpha Capital Acquisition Company (“Alpha”) consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”), pursuant to which (i) the Company became a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of New Semantix and the Company’s shareholders became shareholders of New Semantix at a pre-determined exchange ratio and (ii) Alpha’s shareholders became shareholders of New Semantix in exchange for the net assets of Alpha, which primarily consisted of cash and marketable securities held in the trust account and certain public and private warrants liabilities. The Business Combination was approved at an extraordinary general meeting of Alpha’s shareholders on August 2, 2022.

As a result of the Business Combination, additional cash of R$667.9 million (USD 127.5 million, before payment of Semantix transaction-related expenses) became available to the Group to further service its current debt obligations and expand its business operations.

On August 4, 2022, New Semantix’s ordinary shares and warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbols “STIX” and “STIXW”, respectively.

 

(ii)

Acquisition of Zetta Health Analytics (“Zetta”)

On August 31, 2022, the Group entered into a share purchase agreement with Zetta’s shareholders to acquire 100% of the shares issued by Zetta for R$67.5 million, of which (i) R$25.0 million was paid on August 31, 2022 (concurrently with the execution of the share purchase agreement), (ii) R$22.5 million will be paid on January 18, 2023, (iii) R$5.0 million to be held in escrow to cover potential indemnification obligations owed to the Group, with any residual amounts outstanding after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (i.e., five years) to be released to sellers, and (iv) R$15.0 million will be paid in two equal installments on December 1, 2023 and April 1, 2025, subject to the achievement of certain operational and financial milestones.

Founded in March 2019, Zetta offers a robust variety of SaaS data solutions to enhance data-driven decision-making by healthcare organizations, leveraging client insights to improve care and costs and deepen epidemiological analysis.

Semantix expects that the acquisition of Zetta will strengthen the Semantix Data Platform (“SDP”) through the addition of a new business vertical to better serve the data needs of clients in the healthcare sector.
