Grupo Carrefour Brasil – Q4 and Full-Year 2018 Results

Operating Performance by Segment Q4 and Full-Year 2018

In Q4 2018, Grupo Carrefour Brasil’s consolidated sales reached R$15.8 billion, with growth accelerating to 10.2%, the first quarterly double-digit sales growth since Q4 2016. In 2018, Grupo Carrefour Brasil’s consolidated gross sales reached R$56.3 billion, up 7.6%. The IPCA Food at Home inflation index stood at 4.1% in Q4 and 4.5% in the full year, confirming the end of the food deflation phase that began in mid-2017.

Expansion contributed with a further 4.3% of sales growth in Q4 (4.0% in FY2018), mainly as a result of new Atacadão stores. Our expansion strategy continues to favor higher return formats with a greater emphasis on Cash & Carry: In Q4, we opened six new Cash & Carry stores, two wholesales, four Market and two Express convenience stores. Grupo Carrefour Brasil’s total store network at end-2018 reached 660 stores.

Atacadão: Double-digit growth in sales and profitability, acceleration in expansion Atacadão’s Q4 gross sales were up 14.9% to R$10.7 billion, of which 7.4% LfL. LfL sales growth accelerated quarter after

quarter throughout the year, attesting to the strength of its commercial model. Atacadão’s Q4 sales performance reflects

continuous gains in volumes, an increase in average ticket and more favorable commodity prices. In full-year 2018,

Atacadão’s sales were 10.2% higher at R$37.6 billion, driven by 4.8% LfL growth and 5.6% expansion.

The decision to accelerate expansion to 20 new stores per year from 10-12 stores previously has resulted in a consistent

increase in the contribution of expansion every quarter this year. Expansion brought an additional 7.0% growth in sales in

Q4 (vs 6.0% in Q3, 5.1% in Q2 and 4.3% in Q1), with most of the openings in cities where Atacadão was not yet present.

The 20 openings were well distributed over the year, creating optimal conditions for each opening and enabling us to

maintain this expansion pace in the medium term.

Grupo Carrefour Brasil – Q4 and Full-Year 2018 Results

Gross profit was up R$ 378 million or 29.1%, including the recognition of R$ 210 million of ICMS-ST tax credits for states

other than São Paulo as a consequence of the 2017 Supreme Court decision; those credits are recurring and relate to the

12 months of 2018. Gross margin was 189bps higher to 17.2% in Q4 2018, including 158 bps coming from ICMS-ST tax

credits related to the first nine months of 2018; considering the tax credits related to Q4 only, gross margin was up 23

bps to 15.6%. In full-year 2018, gross margin was 78bps higher at 15.8% (including 54 bps due to ICMS-ST tax credits),

despite the ramp-up effect of the 20 new stores which usually start at much lower gross margin in the first year.

Distribution costs in Q4 were up 16%, reflecting the sharp

acceleration in expansion. As a percentage of net sales,

Atacadão’s strong commercial model and efficiency initiatives

helped maintain distribution costs stable at 8.1% of sales.

Accordingly, Q4 2018 adjusted EBITDA was up 43.5% to R$891

million (9.1% adjusted EBITDA margin, +185bps). Excluding the

ICMS-ST tax gain related to the first nine months of the year,

i.e. R$158 million, adjusted EBITDA was 18.2% higher at R$734

million (7.5% adjusted EBITDA margin, up 23bps).

In full-year 2018, adjusted EBITDA was 22.1% higher at R$2.6

billion (adj EBITDA margin of 7.6%, up +70bps).

Carrefour Retail: Ongoing margins improvement during the year and strong e-commerce

performance In Q4, Carrefour LfL sales ex-petrol were up 3.5% and total sales amounted to R$5.1 billion, driven by successful

commercial initiatives in hypermarkets, an improving trend in proximity formats and strong performance in e-commerce.

In full-year 2018, Carrefour LfL sales, ex-petrol, were up 1.8% and total sales reached R$18.8 billion.

In our hypermarkets, we carried on implementing our value proposition strategy by further adapting our commercial

offer and making significant advances in the food transition initiated in January 2018. These initiatives resulted in 30bps

market share gain in 2018 to 31% (Nielsen). Food sales margin trend has been continuously improving since June 2018,

helped by the end of food deflation.

Our proximity strategy continues to show progress, notably the Market banner launched in December 2017 and which

now counts nine stores, with performance significantly above plan. The revamp of the commercial model of our

convenience format, Express, with a renewed assortment, more supply of fresh products and new services for customers

(ATMs, payment of bills) resulted in double-digit LfL growth in Q4 which provides us with a solid platform to resume

expansion in 2019.

E-commerce was once again the fastest-growing format within Carrefour Retail in Q4 thanks to a strong Black Friday and

even stronger December sales. GMV grew five times faster than the industry (source: E-bit) in Q4 2018 with sales up

110%. 1P sales represent 10.4% of Carrefour Retail’s sales, ex-petrol, compared with 5.8% in Q4 2017. For the full-year,

GMV reached R$1.4 billion, representing 9% of Carrefour’s gross sales, ex-petrol.

Click & Collect was available at all of our hypermarket stores at year-end. We will further develop Click & Collect in 2019

by adding third-party locations as pick-up points and expanding pick-up points to other formats such as Market and

Express. In Q4, we added 8 more Drives in the state of São Paulo, totaling 10 Drives at year-end 2018, with a ramp-up in

Drives planned for 2019. Drive already accounts for 28% of our food-ecommerce sales. Net Promoter Score for Drive

orders stands at a very high level, slightly above 75%.

Since the launch in October of our CRM program, we have significantly increased the percentage of identified customers

in our stores to about 67% in December from 25% in March 2018. Our customer base grew to 13.4 million at year-end

2018, a significant increase since the launch of the program, with roughly 2 million apps downloaded.

Grupo Carrefour Brasil – Q4 and Full-Year 2018 Results

Gross margin was broadly stable at 25.8% in Q4, a significant improvement over the 24.2% average gross margin

registered in H1. The margin improvement was driven by improved food margin, which mostly offset the mix effect from

greater participation of e-commerce and non-food items in the overall sales mix due to Black Friday and seasonality.

However, in full-year 2018, gross margin was still 97bps lower at 24.8%, on mix effect and lower food margin in the fisrt

half of the year, when deflation was still in place.

Initiatives taken to reduce expenses and accelerate the

capture of efficiency gains over the last 12 months drove

distribution costs down 18 bps to 20.1% of net sales in full-

year 2018. This tight expense control was achieved despite

significant investments in the roll-out of our omnichannel

and e-commerce strategy. In Q4, Carrefour Retail’s SG&A

expenses increased by 7.2% vs. Q4 2017, because of: (i) the

4.4% wage increase from the collective bargaining

negotiations as of October 2018 through September 2019,

as well as (ii) additional investments in our omnichannel

strategy. However, as a percentage of net sales, distribution

costs in Q4 2018 were 19.5% of net sales, the lowest

percentage on a quarterly basis in 2018.

Adjusted EBITDA margin has improved gradually throughout the year and was 6.4% in Q4 2018, compared with the 9-

months 2018 adjusted EBITDA margin of 4.3%. In Q4 2018, adjusted EBITDA was 16% lower at R$295 million. In the full

year, adjusted EBITDA was 12.3% lower at R$825 million (4.8% adj. EBITDA margin).

Banco CSF: Strong billings and credit portfolio; record adjusted EBITDA and earnings In Q4, Banco CSF’s total billings rose by 25.5% to about R$7.5 billion, growing by R$1.5 billion. Carrefour credit card

billings were up 13.5% to R$5.6 billion. Atacadão credit card billings have been ramping up faster than expected since the

card’s launch and reached R$1.8 billion, representing 24% of total billings in Q4 vs. 16% in the same quarter last year. In

full-year 2018 total billings were up 31.5% to R$25.9 billion. The total credit portfolio rose by 33.3% to R$8.4 billion in the

full-year and the number of cards totaled 8.0 million, of which 1.6 million Atacadão cards.

At the end of 2018, two important initiatives were unveiled to bolster sales and leverage omnichannel customer

experience of the Carrefour card: (i) Atacadão started accepting the Carrefour card for payment in your stores and (ii)

customers who make at least one purchase per month in any Carrefour store with their card are exempted from the

monthly installment of the annuity fees.

Grupo Carrefour Brasil – Q4 and Full-Year 2018 Results

The quality of our loan portfolio continued to improve. On a comparable basis, loans overdue by more than 90 days

(“over 90”) totaled 9.7% of the total portfolio in 2018, down slightly from 9.8% in 2017. Similarly, loans overdue by more

than 30 days (“over 30”) totaled 12.5% of the total portfolio in 2018 versus 12.6% in 2017. On a comparable basis, credit

risk provision stood at R$938 million, up year on year, as a result of strong growth in Atacadão’s portfolio. Coverage ratio

represented 12.2% of the total portfolio in 2018.

In Q4, adjusted EBITDA stood at R$208 million, an increase of approximately 24% year-on-year or over 60% if we include an one-off gain of R$66 million related to reversal of provisions on personal loans credit limits, as per IFRS9. In the full year, adjusted EBITDA is up almost 50% at R$829 million, or R$895 milion (+61%) including the provision reversal effect, marking a record year for the bank in both cases. The Atacadão card reached break-even at the end of Q3, ahead of schedule, and accounted for 10% of Atacadão sales in 2018.

increase of 178bps, mainly as a result of R$210 million ICMS-ST tax credits for states other than São Paulo booked at

Atacadão (as a consequence of the favorable decision previously issued by the Supreme Court), as well as a solid

performance at Atacadão and Banco CSF. In Q4 2018, Atacadão expanded its gross profit by 29.1%, mainly due to the

ICMS-ST tax credits recognition, while Banco CSF’s gross profit rose by 44.3%. In full-year 2018, gross profit was 11.0%

Consolidated SG&A expenses were 14.1% higher in Q4 at R$1.98 billion and represented 13.8% of consolidated net sales, a 49bps increase year-on-year. The increase reflects the acceleration in the pace of expansion, in particular at Atacadão with 20 openings in 2018 vs. 11 the year before and the strong growth of our banking activities, as well as the annual wage increase of 4.4% effective since October 2018 for Atacadão and Carrefour formats. Even including the impact of new stores and stores under construction, Atacadão’s SG&A expenses were broadly stable year-on-year in Q4 2018 as a percentage of net sales, at 8.1%. In full-year 2018, consolidated SG&A expenses were 6.8% higher at R$7.2 billion, representing 14.1% of net sales, slightly below last year.

Other income and expenses were a negative R$138 million in Q4, the main difference can be explained by expenses related to some store closures (one hypermarket, five Express stores and one Carrefour distribution center) , as well as provisions related to civil matters and tax settlements. In the full-year 2018, other income and expenses were a a negative R$292 million, compared to positive R$269 million in 2017, mainly as a result of the positive effect of the non-recurring portion of ICMS-ST tax credits gains from previous years, which were booked in Q3 2017 results.

December 12, 2018 with income tax withheld, except for shareholders proven to be immune or exempt. On February 26,

2019, the Board proposed an additional dividend payment of R$90 million in the form of IOE to complement the payout

for the full-year 2018 at 25% of adjusted net income, which will be subject to approval at the shareholder’s general

meeting on 16 April 2019.

Free Cash Flow In 2018, the Group improved its free cash flow generation to R$ 1.3 billion (versus R$ 1.1 billion in 2017), while maintaining CAPEX investments at R$1.8 billion in 2018. In 2018, operating cash flow before working capital totaled R$ 2.4 billion, against R$1.7 billion in the previous year, stimulated by the growth in operations. The additional improvement in payment periods with suppliers and the optimization of inventory resulted in a positive cash flow of R$ 964 million, partially offset by the increase in the working capital requirement of Banco CSF (negative value of R$ 410 million) due to the growth of our loan portfolio.

GLOSSARY

Like for Like: LFL sales compare gross sales in the relevant period with those in the immediately preceding period, based

on gross sales provided by comparable stores, which are defined as stores that have been open and operating for a

period of at least twelve consecutive months and that were not subject to closure or renovation within such period. As

petrol sales are very sensitive to market prices, they are excluded from the LfL computation. Other retail companies may

calculate LFL sales differently from us, and therefore, our historical and future LFL sales performance may not be

comparable with other similar metrics used by other companies.

Gross sales: Total revenues from our customers at the Group’s stores, gas stations, drugstores and on our e-commerce

platform.

GMV: Gross Merchandise Volume refers to all online sales (own sales + marketplace sales) as well freight revenues. It

excludes marketplace commissions, but includes sales taxes.

Net sales: Gross sales adjusted for taxes levied on sales (in particular PIS/COFINS and ICMS).

Other revenue: Comprises revenue from our Financial Solutions segment (including bank card fees and interest from

consumer credit activities), shopping mall rents and commissions related to other services provided in the stores, fast

cash and handling fees.

Gross Profit Margin: Gross profit divided by net sales for the relevant period, expressed as percentage.

EBITDA: Net income (for the year or for the period) adjusted for “financial result, net”, “income tax and social

contribution” and “depreciation and amortization”. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not

measures of financial performance under Brazilian GAAP or IFRS, and should not be considered as alternatives to net

income or as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and

Adjusted EBITDA margin have no standardized meaning, and our definitions may not be comparable with those used by

other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA adjusted for the income statement line item “other income and expenses” (comprising losses

on disposals of assets, restructuring costs, income & expenses related to litigations, and tax credits recovered related to

prior periods).

Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales for the relevant period, expressed as a percentage.

Adjusted Net income: Net Income, excluding Other Income and Expenses and the corresponding financial and income tax

effect.

Net Income Margin: Net income for the year divided by net sales for the relevant period, expressed as a percentage.

Global Functions: Central costs in relation to our central functions and headquarters. These comprise the activities of (i)

the cost of our holding divisions, (ii) certain expenses incurred in relation to certain support functions of our parent

company which are allocated to the various segments proportionately to their sales, and (iii) cost allocations from our

parent company, which are not specific to any segment.

Net Promoter Score (NPS): A management tool that can be used to gauge the loyalty of a firm's customer relationships.

It serves as an alternative to traditional customer satisfaction research.

Free Cash Flow: net cash provided by our operating activities, less interest received from short-term investments, plus

cash used in changes in judicial deposits and judicial freeze of deposits (and opposite), and unrealized interest income

from marketable securities, less cash provided from the disposal of non-operational assets, less cash used in additions to

property and equipment, less cash used in additions to intangible assets.
