Letter to SHAREHOLDERSDear Shareholders:
It is with great pleasure that, pursuant Articles 19° and 55° of CAVALI’s bylaws, I submit the An-nual Report, the Financial Statements, and the Independent Auditors’ Report, corresponding to the Fiscal Year 2012, for your consideration and approval.
2012 has been a favorable year for the Peruvian economy due to the positive change of 6.4% in the GDP. As a result, we became the Latin Ameri-can country with greatest growth, maintaining low inflation since it is within the goal range es-tablished by the Central Reserve Bank of Peru (2.8%).
The general growth of our economy would be sustained by both the dynamism of public in-vestment - which recovered from the previous year’s decline by registering a positive change of 24.6% - and by the dynamism of private invest-
ment (with a positive change of 13.6%). This dy-namism, plus the cautious fiscal and macroeco-nomic policies of the Government, has allowed the Moody’s agency to raise the qualification of the long-term bonds of the Peruvian Govern-ment in 2012, from Baa3 to Baa2.
However, the stock market activity has shown conservative results. The General Index of the Lima Stock Exchange (IGBVL) increased by 5.94%, the Selective Index of the Lima Stock Exchange (ISBVL) increased by 13.4%, while the Stock-Exchange Capitalization Index (INCA) in-creased by 6.60%.
Local and international investors showed a vola-tile behavior throughout the year. Daily volumes traded had an average of approximately USD 22.4 million, visibly below the transactions regis-tered in the previous year, although, they recov-ered at the end of the year, reaching USD 30.34 million per day (2.2% below last year).
In order to develop the market, CAVALI decided to reduce its rates by 10%, an initiative that added to the reduction of approved rates by the Superintendence of the Securities Market (SMV) and the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL), contributing to the reduction of transaction costs.
CAVALI, as well as other players of the market, is involved in the strengthening of the new local and international regulations. This is how, in addition to the implementation of the local tax modifications; the Company has started a diagnostic process for the implementation of the new requirements established by FATCA (Foreign Account Tax Com-pliance Act). Also, CAVALI, after being appointed as an Administrator of the Securities Settlement System, has started a process of compliance of the standards included in the regulation of the Securi-ties Settlement System.
Within the international context, CAVALI found-ed, along with BVL, CONFIEP, ASBANC, APESEG,
15YEARS

AFP Association, APEF, ASAB Perú and Procapi-tales, the non-profit association InPerú, whose essential purpose is to promote the country abroad as an investment destination, assuming the Vice presidency as the incumbent represen-tative of CAVALI. Roadshows to Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai and London have been carried out. Three new roadshows will be carried out dur-ing 2013, with the purpose of reaching investors situated in Europe, Asia and the United States.
CAVALI also implemented its first data center abroad (in the United States) in 2012, in addi-tion to two local data centers. This is another step of the Company towards the technological strengthening and optimizing its business conti-nuity plan. As a result, it will continue to respond on an ongoing basis to the requirements of its clients and of the general environment. This is the first data processing center abroad and the third one of the Company.
In short, the year we closed was a period filled with many challenges for the securities market as a whole, as well as for CAVALI. In the middle of an environment that goes back and forth be-tween growth and volatility, the Company also went through a very special moment because it reached the first fifteen years of operation working in the development of an infrastructure that allows for the mitigation of the environ-ment’s risks and looking after the needs of the different players.
We feel proud to have effectively contributed to the growth of the market with the development of world-class solutions for the registration, clearing and settlement of securities. All of this not only to comply with our tasks efficiently and safely, but also to create business opportunities for our cli-ents, to create value for all our shareholders, and contribute with our work to the development of the country.
It is with the satisfaction of having directed, as President of the Board, one of the most impor-tant companies in the market that I also want to thank all the Directors that stood by me in this period that we are now closing, for all their con-stant and valuable support. Also, I renew my ap-preciation to all the shareholders for their trust and to our workers, whose painstaking work is the pillar for the accomplishments and recogni-tions of the Company.
José Antonio Blanco CáceresPresident of the Board of Directors

YEAR-END STATUS REPORT 2012
At the end of 2012, CAVALI offered positive re-sults for its shareholders. Net profits were S/. 9,613,738, a 28.0% increase compared with 2011. The Company’s market capitalization grew to S/. S/. 197,557,683.20, a 4% increase com-pared with the same period in 2011.
EBITDA was 29% lower than the previous year. Return on assets (ROA) was 21%, while return on equity (ROE) was 25%.
INCOME AND EXPENSES
Operating income declined by 9.3% compared with 2011 due to low trading volumes, especially during the three first quarters. A breakdown of income shows the dominant position held by transaction settlements of the operations held at the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL) and other mechanisms; it continues to be our main source of income.
Furthermore, non-current assets increased by 14% during 2012, due to CAVALI’s increased in-vestment in EDV and CEVALDOM, and valuation of real state. Intangible assets accounted for 38% of all non-current assets. Thus, total assets at the close of 2012 were S/. 51.7 million, a 10% increase compared with 2011.
At S/. 5.5 million, the Company’s current liabili-ties in 2012 were 20% higher than at the close of 2011. Non-current liabilities were 28% higher than in 2011. Thus, CAVALI had total liabilities of S/. 8.9 million, up 11% compared with 2011.
Net worth closed 8% higher than in 2011, pri-marily the result of profitability in 2012.
Meanwhile, operational expenses increased by 14.3% in 2012, primarily due to project expenses incurred throughout the year. Overall, operation-al expenses were concentrated in Payroll (52%), Third-party Services (31%), Provisions for the Fiscal Year (16%), Sundry Management Charges (4%), and Duties (1%).
ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
At the end of 2012, current assets were at S/. 24.7 million, 7% higher than in 2011. This was due primarily to the net difference of the high-est balance in cash and bank accounts minus dis-bursements for project execution. The bank bal-ance accounted for 52% of total current assets.

LIQUIDITY
CAVALI’s overall liquidity ratio in 2012 was 5.3 times greater than in 2011. A liquidity ratio of this type allows the Company to respond quickly to potential short-term debt contingencies, which ensures normal conduct of operations.
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK AND THE SECURITIES MARKET
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The Peruvian Economy is experiencing one of the most optimistic moments of recent decades, in spite of a weak global economic activity. On one hand, due to the recovery of the United States, the advanced economies grow timidly (1.3% a year, estimated for 2012), mainly because of the stagnation of the Eurozone (-0.4% a year, esti-mated for 2012) and other signs that complicate the situation, such as the crisis affecting Japan.
On the other hand, the emerging economies and developing countries have registered a joint growth of 5.1%, and although it does not exceed what was accomplished in 2011, it is maintained with very positive expectations for the coming years. In this group, the growth of the countries that are part of the ASEAN-5 (Philippines, Thai-land, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam) stands out, as well as the countries from the Middle East and the North of Africa, which were the only ones exceeding the performance from 2011.
In Latin America, the growth is in line with the growth of the emerging economies, where ac-cording to the ECLAC (Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean), the growths of Paraguay (8.5%), Panama (7.5%) and Peru (6.4%) stand out. Our country is among those that performed better by maintaining a sus-tained growth, while at the same time retaining a low inflation index (2.8% according to the esti-mates of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru).
According to the INEI results (up to the close of November 2012), the areas that grew the most, in comparison to what was registered in the same
period last year, were Construction (15.52%), Fi-nance and Insurance (10.69%), Restaurants and Hotels (8.94%) and Services provided to compa-nies (7.56%).
The trade balance in the January-November 2012 period amounted to USD 3,789 million and was comprised of USD 41,768 million in exports and USD 37,979 million in imports. In this way, imports had growth of 12.6% and exports had a setback of 0.4%, in comparison to the same period of the previous year. Non-traditional exports increased the most in the period of January-November 2012, increasing 10.1% and reaching USD 10,049 million. In turn, the imports sector that grew the most was consumer goods (24.1%).
The national currency continued to increase in value throughout the year, mainly due to the positive flow of exports and the entry of long-term capital, mostly related to direct foreign in-vestment. Therefore, during 2012, the dollar had an accumulated negative variation of 5.04%, reaching an average exchange rate of S/. 2.569 at the end of December.

Index19F I N A N C I A L I N F O R M AT I O N / ANNUAL REPORT 2012
In turn, tax revenue was up to December 2012 reaching S/. 84,131 million, which meant an an-nual increase of 7.4%. As a result, a tax burden of 16.02% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was achieved, the highest registered in 32 years.
SECURITIES MARKET
The ups and downs of the crisis affecting the developed economies were reflected in the per-formance of the global stock markets. 2012 was a year when volatility became a constant, but offered surprisingly, at the end of the period, im-portant improvements in some of the main glob-al markets and indexes. In this way, S&P Global BMI had an increase of 14.0% at the end of 2012. Also, S&P gained 13.4%, Nasdaq Composite In-dex gained about 16%, the Hang Seng gained 22.5% and the FTSE 100 gained 5.84%.
Lima Stock Exchange followed this trend and closed the year with positive indexes: 5.94% progress for the IGBVL - General Index of the Lima Stock Exchange (20,629.35 points) and
13.4% for the ISBVL - Selective Index of the Lima Stock Exchange (31,000.60 points). In turn, the National Capitalization Index (INCA) closed the year with an appreciation of 6.60% by reaching 108.42 points.
However, this was accomplished after a year of ups and downs: a promising first semester was weakened by a downward second semester, and later recovered slightly at the end of the third quarter. But it was a series of extraordinary transactions in December that promoted the positive numbers of the indexes by improving the amounts traded.
Following the drive created by the domestic demand, the sector indexes that had the best yield were the ones associated with private consumption and credit: Banks and financial in-stitutions (38.9%), Sundries (29.1%), Services (22.5%) and Industrial (3.87%).

INITIATIVES AND PROJECTS DEVELOPED DURING 2012
Concerning the institutional goals, CAVALI set in motion several projects that will allow the Com-pany to continue expanding the infrastructure of the market based on the efficient and safe connection with other stock exchanges, as well as the entry of new players to the market.
a. Initiation of operations with Euroclear
With the purpose of expanding the investment options in foreign markets through its interna-tional links, CAVALI began operations as a par-ticipant of Euroclear Bank, one of the largest entities of Custody, Clearing and Settlement of securities of the world.
The link with Euroclear establishes a direct connection for Peru to the European securities market and 41 countries of the world, improving the conditions in which our country relates to
the global market, since its players can execute transactions abroad, minimizing the custody risks and accessing more services. As a result, Pe-ruvian broker firms (SAB), banks and institutional investors can deliver and receive securities from these markets. Also, they have the capability to trade local securities issued abroad, with better service conditions, opportunities and costs than in other places.
According to this agreement, the Peruvian mar-ket has the chance to interact not only with the European market, but also with Euroclear’s global client base, made up of over 1300 of the major financial firms of the world, central banks and supranationals.
This new link adds to the direct links already established by CAVALI with two of the most important markets of the world: the United States, with the DTC (Depository Trust Compa-ny) and Canada, with CDS (Clearing and Deposi-tory Services).
b. Data Center abroad
During the reviewed period, CAVALI added a data center in the United States with the purpose of technologically strengthening the Company and optimizing its business continuity plan. This is the first data processing center abroad, and the third one of the Company.
This places CAVALI in the highest level in disas-ter recovery and business continuity because it protects its operational continuity in case of a disaster affecting our country, ensuring the pro-vision of the services that the Company provides to the market.
In this way, CAVALI complies with the interna-tional infrastructure and security standards, keeping a data center over 5,000 kilometers away from Lima, the main headquarters of the Company.
15YEARS
Index31M A N A G E M E N T R E P O R T / ANNUAL REPORT 2012
c. Reduction of rates for trading session and the Alternative Securities Market.
In an effort to promote investment in the Pe-ruvian securities market, CAVALI reduced its rates by 10% applicable to the settlement of spot-market trading session transactions with equities. With this new reduction, the new rate became 0.0585% on the settled amount, with a minimum rate of S/. 5 for the settled amounts less than S/. 8,547.01.
This initiative coupled with the ones by the Su-perintendence of the Securities Market (SMV) and the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL) that also reduced by 10% the commissions and contributions relat-ed to the trading and settlement of transactions, with which the transactional cost of the investors in the stock market was reduced.
CAVALI also reduced by 50% the settlement rates of securities registered in the Alternative Securities Market (MAV), whose objective is to allow the small and medium companies (SME) to register their primary public offers of short-term instruments, as well as their secondary public
offers of shares and short-term instruments.
The Company also reduced by 15% the fees for securities registration, and the value mainte-nance, and information to issuers for this market segment.
d. New participants
CAVALI accepted two new participants during 2012. Banco Santander was accepted as an in-direct participant, allowing it to access services related to the Safekeeping Book.
The Company also accepted C.A. Sociedad Agente de Bolsa as a direct participant; it can therefore ac-cess the services related of the Accounting Reg-ister of CAVALI, as well as the clearing and settle-ment services for the transactions executed in centralized trading mechanisms, such as the BVL.
e. Sale of information
The Company began the Service of Sale of Infor-
mation to the Market with the purpose of meet-ing the demand of several entities requiring the analysis of information of the local securities market.
This service is directed towards the intermediar-ies of the securities market, institutional inves-tors, issuing companies, consultancy companies, among other private and public institutions.
INSTITUTIONAL MANAGEMENT
a. Administrator of Securities Settlement Systems
Through the approval of the Securities Settle-ment Systems (SLV) Regulation, the Superinten-dence of the Securities Market (SMV) established the legal framework applicable to the SLV and the SLV Administrator. CAVALI has been recognized by the Law of Payment Systems and Settlement of Securities as an SLV Administrator.
15YEARS
Index32M A N A G E M E N T R E P O R T / ANNUAL REPORT 2012
To properly assume this role, the Company began working in order to adjust its internal regulations, its governance structure, and its operational aspects to fit the Law and the SLV Regulation. According to the current regula-tions, it will be executed between 2013 and 2014.
b. Good Corporate Governance
Within the framework of conformance with the Good Corporate Governance Index (IBGC), CAV-ALI received the recognition of the Lima Stock Exchange as a “company that possesses good corporate governance practices”.
The companies possessing “good corporate governance practices” are those that the Lima Stock Exchange recognizes for having a solid governance structure, based on the principles of transparency, trust, equality, social responsi-bility, integrity and fluidity of information. This recognition was the result of the validation that the auditing company Ernst & Young executed on the governance principles that CAVALI pub-
lished this year in its Annual Report.
The Good Corporate Governance Index (IBGC) of the Lima Stock Exchange is a tool designed to reflect the behavior of the listed companies that have good corporate governance prac-tices. Also, the Stock Exchange recognizes companies that comply with high governance standards.
c. Preparation for the FATCA
CAVALI started a series of technical and opera-tional provisions related to the business model, in order to comply with the FATCA (Foreign Ac-count Tax Compliance Act), published in the United States and of global scope, affecting not only the institution, but also the Peruvian secu-rities market as a whole.
In this context, the Company carried out a series of seminars, along with the international con-sultancy company Deloitte, with the purpose of sharing the implications of the application of this law in Peru.
d. MILA (Integrated Latin American Market)
CAVALI and the companies that are part of the MILA (Integrated Latin American Market) worked during 2012 for the improvement and promotion of this market, which has the highest number of issuing companies of the region (556 listed com-panies) and is second in stock-exchange capital-ization (more than 712 trillion).
Among the main activities is the execution of the MILA Day, an event directed to the analysts of intermediaries and institutions interested in knowing better the issuing companies of this market and that was executed in each one of the member countries: Peru, Colombia and Chile.
e. inPERÚ
CAVALI joined the principal companies and orga-nizations of the Peruvian capital market to form inPerú, a private non-profit organization looking to promote Peru as an investment destination.
The association is comprised of CAVALI, the Lima Stock Exchange, the AFP Association, the
15YEARS
Index33M A N A G E M E N T R E P O R T / ANNUAL REPORT 2012
Banking Association, the Mutual Funds Associa-tion, Procapitales, the Peruvian Association of Insurance Companies, the Association of Micro-financial Institutions of Peru, and the Peruvian Finance Association.
Two roadshows have been carried out in Europe (London) and Asia (Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore), while three events are already being scheduled in new cities of Europe, Asia and the United States of America.
f. Marca Perú
The Company became a licensee of the Marca Perú, the initiative of the Peruvian government to promote the benefits of the country in differ-ent aspects of the national economy and cul-ture, among which is the attraction of invest-ment.
CAVALI has been preparing a series of institu-tional activities that will allow it to promote this concept as part of the communication strategy of the Company.
g. Institutional Relations
The Company has had an active participation in industry events and has carried out others that have contributed in the spreading of the ben-efits of the securities market.
Therefore, with the purpose of knowing the latest progresses of the global industry, dif-ferent executives of the Company participated in the following international events: ACSDA workshop regarding the principles for financial market infrastructures, conducted in Miami; The Americas Securities Services Forum 2012, organized by Citi in the United States; the An-nual Assembly of the ACSDA, carried out this year in Colombia; and GREAT - Global Relations Exchange & Training, organized by DTCC in New York.
CAVALI also organized the IV Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Prevention Forum, de-veloped by CAVALI and the Lima Stock Exchange: it is an event that had the participation of the compliance, control and operations areas of the local brokerage firms and its purpose to be a con-
versation space about the challenges that the securities market must take on in order to face these crimes.
The Company participated in other events that were useful to spread the role of the Company and its expertise in the securities market. This happened with the participation in the VII Con-vention of the Capital Market, organized by Pro-capitales, the 6th ExpoBolsa, organized by the Lima Stock Exchange and the InfoBolsa, also or-ganized by the Lima Stock Exchange, and which allowed us to carry the message of the Company to three cities of the country: Trujillo, Chiclayo and Arequipa.
h. Social Responsibility
CAVALI has actively contributed with the Oper-ación Sonrisa in the development of awareness and fund raising campaigns to operate on chil-dren of low income with hare lip and cleft pal-ates. Therefore, the Company’s workers partici-pated in the Kilómetro del Sol, an event that was held in the Jockey Plaza shopping mall, where
15YEARS

1. CAVALI’S CORPORATE GOVERNANCE APPROACH
The commitment to strengthen good corporate governance practices has emerged as a natural response to the significant institutional development that CAVALI has been achieving throughout recent years. Consequently, the key elements of corporate governance – such as formalizing the scope of control or being open to information transparency – became the tools used to efficiently manage the Company, but mostly to build trust among all stakeholders.
With the development of good corporate governance practices, the re-sponsibility is also supplemented with a systemic element: CAVALI´s as-signment to be the only company that carries out the registration, custody, transfer, clearing, and settlement of securities in the Peruvian market.
This situation poses a double challenge to the institution as it requires the development of governmental parameters that can protect the interests of CAVALI’s shareholders – for it is a listed company - and, secondly, to respond to the legitimate interest of the many groups that converge in local market (stock brokerage firms, local investors, non-resident investors, etc.).
Therefore, CAVALI has included in its Strategic Objective 2010-2012, the need to strengthen its good corporate governance practices. In order to accomplish this, the firm has been implementing a set of changes and as-sessments on its legal framework and governing bodies, which will raise its standards and activities.
Therefore, CAVALI has included in its 2010-2012 Strategic Objectives, the need to strengthen corporate governance practices. In this way, the com-pany has implemented a set of changes and evaluations for its legal frame-work and government bodies which will raise its standards of action.
It is important to highlight that the Corporate Governance and Develop-ment Committee and the Board of Directors chosen for the 2010-2013 period that is about to end, have taken important steps towards the imple-mentation of corporate governance practices and we expect that the Board of Directors to be chosen for the next period continues with this purpose, in order to create greater value for the company.
Within the most meaningful corporate governance improvements in this current period, we obtained an acknowledgment of Good Corporate Gov-ernance Practices by the Good Corporate Governance Index - IBGC 2012 of the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL). Also, we implement the corporate gover-nance recommendations presented by the company MC&F Consultores, after having presented a Corporate Governance Quality Report, prepared for obtaining a diagnostics that shows CAVALI’S status regarding best cor-porate governance practices.
The implementation plan of the recommendations mentioned in the pre-vious paragraph includes the approva,l by the Corporate Governance and Development Committee and CAVALI’s Board of Directors, of a series of policies and amendments to the Board’s Regulation, the Regulation of the Board’s Committees and the Internal Rules of Conduct.

5.2 Implementation of improvement recommendations in Corporate Governance
During 2012, CAVALI worked on the implementation of the corporate gov-ernance recommendations presented by MC&F Consultores in its Corporate Governance Quality Report.
As it was informed in the Annual Corporate Governance Report correspond-ing to 2011, CAVALI hired MC&F Consultores with the purpose of obtain-ing a new diagnostic reflecting CAVALI’s status in relation to international standards. The diagnostic finished with twenty six corporate governance recommendations to be implemented.
Up to December 31st 2012, the following recommendations have been ap-proved:
1. Precise the concept of the directors’ profiles. The Board’s bylaws and regulation were modified with the purpose of defining the directors’ profiles, specifically the profile of the independent director.
2. Extension of information on stockholders at CAVALI’s website. This rec-ommendation was made to improve the exposure of CAVALI’s share-holding structure in its website. Therefore, it was agreed to reveal in the website the shareholding composition with name of all those who have more than 5% of the share capital (as it had been revealed ac-cording to the current SMV regulation); and, regarding the balance of
shareholders, to divide it in four blocks: resident and non-resident in-dividuals, resident and non-resident legal entities, indicating the per-centage and total number of shares per each one of them.
3. Website Management Policy. This policy has the purpose to establish guidelines for the administration and supervision of the information in the sections and subsections of CAVALI’s website.
4. Information policy. This policy has the purpose to establish the prin-ciples and criteria to use for the general treatment and classification of the information on which CAVALI relies, and to determine the people responsible for processing the information requests coming from dif-ferent interest groups, whether internal or external.
The information policy covers the implementation of two additional recommendations: (i) Follow-up of guidelines related to the handling of confidential information, and (ii) the procedure of assistance to share-holders.
5. Procedure of electing offices in the Board. This recommendation aims to establish the procedure and the criteria for the election of the of-fices of President and Vicepresident in the Board. Its implementation implied an amendment to the Board’s Regulation.
6. Training policy for the members of the Board. This policy aims to de-fine and regulate the training and continuous education procedures,

oriented towards the acquisition, update and strengthening of the knowledge of the Board Members, regarding subjects related mainly to the development of CAVALI’s core business.
7. Definition of powers and responsibilities of the Board’s President and Vice-president. This recommendation aims to regulate the scope of the functions and responsibilities of the Board’s President and Vice-president. Its implementation included the amendment of the Board’s Regulation and a proposal to modify article thirty fourth of the bylaws, which will be submitted to consideration in the General Meeting of Shareholders in 2013.
8. Guidelines for the Board’s and Board Committees’ meetings. This rec-ommendation aims to establish the guidelines to follow for the holding of the Board’s and Board Committees’ Meetings, as well as the Board’s Meetings held without the presence of the General Manager. It also in-cludes the information delivery procedures for the Board’s Meetings.
The implementation of this recommendation included the amendment of the Board’s Regulation and a proposal to modify article thirty eight of the bylaws, which will be submitted to consideration in the Annual Mandatory Shareholders’ Meeting of 2013.
9. Procedure for the individual assessment of the Members of the Board. This recommendation aims to implement a mechanism for the yearly assessment of the Board, which evaluates the Board not only as a col-
legiate organization, as it is still done, but also executes an individual self-evaluation of each member of the Board.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and for the internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in Peru. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cavali S.A. I.C.L.V. as of December 31, 2012, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

(e.iii) Deferred income tax liability The adjustment in Deferred income tax liability caption is mainly to the difference between tax basis and book balances of Company’s investment property, property, furniture and equipment and intangible assets, after recorded the IFRS first-time adoption adjustments, as detailed in paragraph (e.i) above.
(e.iv) Shareholders’ equity The adjustment in shareholders’ equity is mainly to the difference between asset and liability after recorded the IFRS first-time adoption adjustments, as detailed in this note. Adjustments distribution within shareholders’ equity has been made in accordance with IFRS 1 and considering the following: (i) Capital stock, Legal reserve and other reserves captions have been remained without changes, due to their balances result from the application of Peruvian legal requirements in force and represent attributable decisions about captions within shareholders’ equity taken by shareholders, and, (ii) all remaining effects resulting from the IFRS first-time adoption have been included under Retained earnings caption as of January 1, 2011.
2.3.Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Company’s management to make judgments, significant estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Estimates and judgments are continuously being assessed and are based on historical experience and other factors, including the expectation of future events believed as reasonable under current circumstances. In Management’s opinion, these estimates were made on the basis of their best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of preparation of financial statements; however, the final results could be different from the estimates included in the financial statements. The Company’s management does not expect that these changes, if any, would have a significant effect on the financial statements taken as a whole.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for similar transactions and events.
Most significant estimates considered by the Company’s management in its financial statements are basically referred to:
- Estimation of useful lives of assets to be depreciated or amortized - notes - 2.4.(i) and 2.4.(k).
- Long-lived assets impairment - note 2.4.(l).
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index100
- Contingencies derived from legal processes and administrative procedures - note 2.4.(o).
- Determination of current and deferred income tax balances - note 2.4.(m).
Any differences in the estimates in subsequent actual results are recorded in the statements of income of the year in which they occur.
2.4. Summary of significant accounting principles and practices
(a) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Company’s financial statements are expressed in the currency of primary economic environment in which it operates (functional currency). The financial statements are presented in Nuevos Soles, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
(b) Financial instruments: Initial recognition and measurement
Financial instruments are defined as any contract that gives rise to both a financial asset in a company and a financial liability or an equity instrument in another.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (conventional transactions) are recognized on the date of the transaction, that is to say, on the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Classification of financial instruments at initial recognition depends on the purpose for which financial instruments were acquired and their characteristics. All financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus incremental costs related to the transaction which are directly attributable to purchase or issuance of financial instrument, except for in the case of financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and Management has the intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.
To the date of financial statements, the Company classifies its financial instruments within the following categories defined in IAS 39: (i) financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, (ii) loans and receivables, (iii) financial liabilities, (iv) available-for-sale investments, and (v) held-to-maturity investments, as deemed appropriate. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition.
The most important aspects of each category are described below:
(i) Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
IIncludes derivatives financial instruments held for trading which are recognized in the statement of profit and loss at fair value. Fair values are obtained based on currency exchange rates and market interest rates. All derivatives are considered as
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index101
assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when negative. Gains and losses from changes in fair value are recorded in the statement of income within “Financial income” or “Financial expenses” caption, as appropriate.
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not maintain any financial asset or liability at fair value through profit or loss.
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, for which the entity does not intend to sell them immediately or in the near future and have no recovery risk other than credit deterioration.
After their initial recognition, loans and accounts receivable are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment.
(iii) Financial liabilities
The Company maintains in this category: bank loans, trade accounts payable, accounts payable to related parties, financial obligations and other accounts payable.
Financial liabilities are recognized when the Company is part of contractual agreements of financial instrument. After their initial recognition, financial instruments are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized costs are calculated taking into account any discount or premium
on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.
Financial liabilities are presented as short-term obligations unless the Company has an irrevocable right to defer the obligations agreement for more than twelve months after the date of the statement of financial position.
(iv) Available-for-sale investments
Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of the other categories. These assets are presented as non-current, unless Management has the intention to sell the investment within twelve months from the date of the statement of financial position.
After initial measurement, available-for-sale investments are measured at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses due to changes in fair value are recognized directly in shareholders’ equity.
When financial asset is disposed of, cumulative gain or loss previously recorded in shareholders’ equity is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. In the event that it could not be possible to determine a fair value due to lack of an active market and/or information relevant to its determination, available-for-sale investment are carried at cost
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not maintain available-for-sale investments.
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index102
(v) Held-to-maturity investments
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities are classified as to held-to-maturity investments when the Company has the intention and ability to hold them to maturity. After initial recognition, the Company measures their held-to-maturity investments at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of income when the investment is disposed, had impairment or through amortization.
(c) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
(d) Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets:
A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when:
(i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
(ii) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset; or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of it, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement in it.
Financial liabilities:
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another one from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms are substantially
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index103
modified, such replacement or amendment is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amount is recognized in the statement of income.
(e) Transactions in foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currency are those carried out in any currency different from functional currency. Transactions in foreign currency are initially recorded at the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing as of the dates of the transactions.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rate ruling at the date of settlement of transactions or the date of the statement of financial position, recognizing arising gains or losses in the statement of comprehensive income.
Exchange differences resulting from settlement of transactions in foreign currencies and from translation of monetary assets and liabilities at exchange rates at year-end, are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing as of the dates of the transactions.
(f) Cash and cash equivalent
For purposes of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalent include petty cash,
current accounts, saving accounts and time deposits with original maturities of 3 months or less.
(g) Investments in associates
Associates are all entities over which the Company exercises significant influence but not control. Investments in Associates are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the initial investment is recorded at cost and is adjusted results to recognize changes in the Company’s share in equity of Associates. Dividends received from Associates are credited to the value of investments.
(h) IInvestment Property
Investment properties are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Annual depreciation is recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income and is determined using the straight-line method based on estimated useful life of the building in 70 years.
(i) Property, furniture and equipment
Property, furniture and equipment are presented at cost net of accumulated depreciation, except for land, which is not depreciated. Property, furniture and equipment’s initial cost comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes and any directly attributable cost to locate and bring the asset in conditions of its intended use. Subsequent expenditures on property, furniture and equipment are recognized only when it is probable that the Company will obtain the future economic
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index104
benefits derived from it and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed in the year they are incurred.
Any revaluation increase is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under “Other equity reserves” for revaluation of assets, unless the increase corresponds to the reversal of a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognized in the state of comprehensive income, in which case the increase is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. A revaluation decrease is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that the decrease offsets an increase for the same asset previously recognized in the asset revaluation reserve. At the time of sale of a revalued asset, any revaluation reserve relating to that asset is transferred to retained earnings.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets and depending on machine hours used, as shown below:
Years
Buildings and constructions From 70 to 79
Transport units 9
Furniture and fixtures From 7 to 10
Computer equipment From 3 to 8
Other equipment From 5 to 8
An item of property, furniture and equipment or any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of income when the asset is derecognized.
The assets’ residual value, useful lives and depreciation methods and rates of assets are reviewed periodically by Management on the basis of the economic benefits expected for components of property, plant and equipment.
(j) Finance lease
Leases in which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and inherent benefits to ownership of the leased items are classified as finance leases. At the beginning of the lease, it is recorded as assets and liabilities at the fair value of the leased property. Those assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of own similar items. Annual depreciation is recognized as expense for the period.
(k) Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are initially measured at acquisition cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are recorded at cost net of accumulated amortization and/or impairment losses, if applicable.
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index105
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives (software) are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income within “Administrative expenses” caption.
Amortization of intangible assets is calculated based on the straight-line method and using the following estimated useful lives:
YearsSoftware use licenses 3 to 5Computer software 3, 5 and 10
The useful life and depreciation method are reviewed periodically by Management on the basis of expected economic benefits for the components of Intangible assets.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net income from the sale and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income when the asset is derecognised.
(l)Impairment of non-financial assets
When events or economic changes indicate that the value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, Management reviews the book value of this asset. If after this analysis, it appears that its book value exceeds its recoverable value, an impairment loss is recognized in the statement of income, in an amount equivalent to the excess of the net book value net of its tax effects. Recoverable amounts are estimated for each asset or, if not possible, for each cash generating unit.
The recoverable amount of a long-lived asset or a cash generating unit is the higher between fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Fair value less costs to sell of a long-lived asset or a cash generating unit is the amount that is available to sell, in an arms’ length transaction between knowledgeable parties, less costs of sales. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be derived from a long-lived asset or a cash generating unit.
(m) Income tax and workers’ profit sharing
Current income tax and workers’ profit sharing
The asset or liability for current income tax is measured as the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities. The income tax is calculated on the basis of individual financial information of the Company. According to legal regulations, the participation of employees is calculated on the same basis as is used to calculate the current income tax. The rate of income tax and the percentage of employee involvement applicable to the Company are 30 percent and 5 percent respectively.
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index106
Deferred income tax
The deferred income tax reflects the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and those determined for tax purposes. The deferred assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years when these differences are recovered or settled. The measurement of deferred assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences arising from the manner in which the Company expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the statement of financial position.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized regardless of when it deems that the temporary differences will disappear. Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is likely that there are sufficient future benefits for the deferred tax assets can be applied. As of the date of the statement of financial position, the Company assesses unrecognized deferred assets and the recorded accounting balances.
(n) Provisions
Provisions are recognized only when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is likely that resources will be required to settle the obligation and its amount can be reasonably estimated. Provisions are reviewed periodically and are adjusted to reflect the best estimate available as of the date of the statement of financial position.
When the effect of the value of money over time is important, the amount of the provision is the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation.
(o) Contingent assets and liabilities
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements, only disclosed in the notes to the financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources is remote.
Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements and are only disclosed in the notes to the financial statements when it is probable that an inflow of resources.
(p) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, taxes and other items related to sales. The recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized:
(i) Income amount can be reliably measured;(ii) It is probable that economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to
the Company; (iii) Transaction’s level of completion on the date of financial statements can be
reliably measured; and, (iv) Costs incurred or to be incurred to completion can be reliably measured.
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index107
(q) Recognition of costs and expenses
Operating costs and expenses are recorded in the periods to which they relate and are recognized in results as accrued, regardless of when they are paid, and recorded in the periods to which they relate.
(r) Financial income and expenses
Financial income and expenses are recognized in the income statement in the periods to which they relate and are recognized when earned, regardless of when it is received or disbursed.
(s) Basic and diluted earnings per common share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Shares that are issued due to the capitalization of profits, or similar transactions, are deemed to be a stock split, thus for the computation of the weighted average number of shares are considered as had always been issued.
Diluted earnings per share correspond to basic earnings per share, adjusted by dilutive effects from shares arising from convertible bonds or shares, between others. The Company has no financial instruments with dilutive effects, so basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.
(t) Subsequent events
What happened after the end of the period that provides information about the Company at the date of the statement of financial position (adjusting events) is included in the financial statements. Significant subsequent events, that are not adjusting events, are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
2.5. IFRS standards issued but not yet effective
Some new standards, amendments and interpretations of existing IFRS were published and are required for the Company for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but the Company has not yet adopted. From them, those applicable to the Company are the following:
- IAS 1 “Presentation of financial statements – Presentation of Other comprehensive income”This amendment to IAS 1 change the grouping of items presented in Other comprehensive income. Items required to be reclassified to results in the future must be presented separately from those not intended to be reclassified. This amendment will only have impact at presentation level and will not have impact on the Company’s financial position or performance.
- IAS 32 “Financial Instruments: Presentation” – Offset of financial assets and liabilities – Improvements to IAS 32These improvements clear the concept of “only if only if there is a current legally
15YEARS
F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index108
enforceable right to offset”. The improvements also clear offset criteria application of IAS 32. The Company’s management believes the adoption of these amendments will not have impact on the Company’s financial position and will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.
- IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” (amendment)The amendment requires additional disclosures about financial assets that have been transferred, but not derecognized, to enable the user of the Company’s financial statements to understand the relationship with those assets that have not been derecognized and their associated liabilities. In addition, the amendment requires disclosures about continuing involvement in derecognized assets to enable the user to evaluate the nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s continuing involvement in those derecognized assets. The amendment becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The amendment affects disclosure only and has there no impact on the Company’s financial position or performance.
- IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement”IFRS 9 as issued reflects the first phase of the IASB’s work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as defined in IAS 39. The standard was intended to be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but subsequent amendments issued in December 2011 delayed the effective date of this standard up to January 1, 2015. In subsequent phases, the IASB will address hedge accounting and impairment of financial assets. The adoption of the first phase of IFRS 9 will have an effect on the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets, but will potentially have no impact on classification and measurements of financial liabilities. The
Company will quantify the effect in conjunction with the other phases, when final version of standard be issued.
- IFRS 12 “Disclosure of involvement in other entities”IFRS 12 includes all disclosures previously incorporated in IAS 27 related to consolidated financial statements as well as all disclosure previously incorporated in IAS 31 and IAS 28. These disclosures are related to involvement in subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates and structured entities. IFRS 12 becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is still evaluating the impact, if any, from the adoption of this standard.
- IFRS 13 “Fair value measurement”IFRS 13 establishes a complete guide under IFRS for all fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not change when an entity requires the use of fair value, but gives guidance about how to perform fair value measurements under IFRS when fair value is required or permitted. The Company, based on a preliminary analysis, does not expect any significant impact as a result of the adoption of this standard. IFRS 13 becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.

(b) Risk mitigation
As part of its overall risk management, the Company is constantly evaluating different scenarios and identify different strategies to manage exposures resulting from changes in credit risk, interest rate risk, currency risk and equity risk.
26.1. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty defaults on its obligations under a financial instrument or contract, causing a loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, primarily accounts receivable, and financial activities, including its bank deposits and transactions in derivatives and other financial instruments.
(a) Accounts receivable -
The Company makes most of its sales in cash. The balances of receivables are regularly reviewed to ensure their recovery.
(b) Financial instruments and bank deposits -
The credit risk on bank balance is administered by Finance and Administration in accordance with Company policies. The counterparty credit limits are reviewed by management and the Board and are set to minimize the concentration of risks and mitigate potential financial losses from counterparty defaults. The maximum
exposure to credit risk for the components of the financial statements at December 31, 2012 and 2011 comes from the items: Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables.
At December 31, 2012, the Management has estimated that the maximum amount of credit risk to which the Company is exposed is approximately S/.23, 986,000 (S/.22, 831,000 at December 31, 2011), which represents the value carrying amounts of financial assets. In the opinion of management, there are no significant concentrations of credit risk at December 31, 2012 and 2011.
26.2. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and equity investment risk. In the case of the Company, the financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and deposits, which are exposed to currency risk and interest rates.
The sensitivity analysis shown in the next section relates to the position at December 31, 2012 and 2011. The sensitivity analysis has been prepared considering that the amount of net debt and the ratio of foreign currency financial instruments held constant.

F I N A N C I A L S TAT E M E N T S / ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Index132
(a) Interest rate risk -
The interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company manages its interest rate risk by obtaining debt with fixed interest rate. As indicated in note 13, to December 31, 2012 and 2011, long-term debt held by the Company is related to financial leases which are subject to a fixed interest rate. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company does not have variable rate debt, which would be exposed to a risk of change in interest rate.
(b) Currency risk -
The exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates. The Finance Department is responsible for identifying, measuring, monitoring and reporting the overall risk exposure of the Company. Foreign exchange risk arises when the Company presents mismatches between its assets, liabilities and off statement of financial position in the various currencies in which it operates, which are mainly new soles (functional currency) and U.S. dollars.
The Company manages this risk by performing their main functional currency transactions. As a result, the risk that the Company is exposed to changes in exchange rates on foreign currency is minimal. Also, as indicated in note 3, at December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has a risk position in foreign currency net asset upward of U.S. $ 1,381,000 and U.S. $ 891,000, respectively. During 2012, operations were
conducted in foreign currency generated a loss difference, net upward S/.151, 000 (loss difference, net upward S/.160, 000 in 2011).
At December 31, 2011, the Management of the Company has reviewed the projections from fluctuations in 2012 in the local exchange rate fluctuations and estimated that these will not be significant.
The following table shows the sensitivity analysis of the U.S. dollar, the currency to which the Company has significant exposure at December 31, 2012 and 2011, its assets and liabilities and its forecast cash flows. The analysis determines the effect of a reasonably possible change in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar, with all other variables constant in the statement of comprehensive income before income tax.
A negative amount shows a potential net reduction in the statement of comprehensive income, while a positive amount reflects a net potential increase:

(c) Liquidity risk -
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its payment obligations associated with financial liabilities when due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn. The consequence would be the non-payment of its obligations to third parties.
The Company monitors its risk to a shortage of funds using a cash flow projection in the short term for the determination of missing cash in the short term, requesting extensions to established credit lines and cash flow forecast long-term for the determination of structural deficiencies in missing cash and investment opportunities, considering funding if required in the medium and long term. Both cash flows are tools that management uses to monitor or mitigate any liquidity risk, scheduling all future payments under the cash estimates.
