Afya Limited

Opinion onthe Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Afya Limited (the Company) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB.

Adoption of IFRS 16

As discussed in Note 2.4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method for recognizing leases in 2019, due to the adoption of IFRS 16 – Leases using the modified retrospective method of adoption.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

1 Corporate information

Afya Limited (“Afya” or “Afya Limited”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on March 22, 2019. Afya Limited became the holding company of Afya Participações S.A. (hereafter referred to as “Afya Brazil”), formerly denominated NRE Participações S.A., through the completion of the corporate reorganization described below.

Until the contribution of Afya Brazil shares to Afya Limited, Afya Limited did not have commenced operations and had only nominal assets and liabilities and no material contingent liabilities or commitments. Accordingly, Afya Limited’s consolidated financial information substantially reflect the operations of Afya Brazil after the corporate reorganization.

The Company is formed by a network of higher education institutions located in nine Brazilian states forming a large educational group in the country, with emphasis on offering undergraduate and graduate courses related to medicine and health sciences and comprises the development and sale of electronically distributed educational courses on medicine science and related printed and technological educational content.

Corporate reorganization

On March 29, 2019, Afya Brazil merged (i) BR Health Participações S.A. (“BR Health”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bozano Educacional II Fundo de Investimento em Participações Multiestratégia (“Crescera”) that controlled Guardaya Empreendimentos and Participações S.A. (“Guardaya”) and was one of Afya Brazil’s shareholders; and (ii) Guardaya which owned 100% of Medcel Editora e Eventos S.A. (“Medcel Editora”) and CBB Web Serviços e Transmissões On Line S.A. (“CBB Web”), focused on medical residency preparation courses located in the state of São Paulo, resulting in the transfer to Afya Brazil of 100% of Medcel Editora and CBB Web and 15% of União Educacional do Planalto Central S.A. (“UEPC”), a medical school located in the Federal District. On June 18, 2019 Afya Brazil acquired an additional 15% interest in UEPC resulting in an interest of 30%.

On July 7, 2019, each of the Afya Brazil´s shareholders had agreed to contribute their respective shares on the Company to Afya Limited, exchanging one common share as 28 Class A or Class B common shares of Afya Limited. The holders of the Class A common shares and Class B common shares have identical rights, except that (i) the holder of Class B common shares is entitled to 10 votes per share, whereas holders of Class A common shares are entitled to one vote per share, (ii) Class B common shares have certain conversion rights and (iii) the holders of Class B common shares are entitled to maintain their proportional ownership interest in the event that common shares and/or preferred shares are proposed to be issued. The holders of Class A common shares and Class B common shares vote together as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote of shareholders, unless otherwise required by law and subject to certain exceptions.

Initial public offering

On July 18, 2019, Afya Limited priced its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 13,744,210 Class A common shares, which began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) on July 19, 2019 under the symbol “AFYA”. On July 23, 2019, the underwriters exercised the option to buy an additional 2,061,631 Class A common shares to cover over-allotments, totaling 15,805,841 Class A common shares, which 13,888,887 Class A common shares were offered by Afya Limited and 1,916,954 Class A common shares were offered by the selling shareholders at the initial public offering price. The initial offering price was US$ 19.00 per Class A common share.

On July 23, 2019, the share capital of Afya Limited was increased by 13,888,887 Class A shares through the proceeds received as a result of the IPO of US$ 263,888 thousand (or R$ 992,778). The net proceeds from the IPO were US$ 242,711 thousand (or R$ 913,108), after deducting US$ 15,833 thousand (or R$ 59,566) in underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses totaled US$ 5,344 thousand (or R$ 20,104). The share issuance costs totaled R$ 79,670.

At the date of authorization for issue of these consolidated financial statements, Afya Limited transferred US$ 251,800 thousand (or R$ 961,438) of the net proceeds from the Cayman Islands to bank accounts in Brazil. These deposits are invested on first-line financial institutions in Brazil and are denominated in Brazilian reais.

Acquisitions

(i) On April 3, 2019, Afya Brazil acquired control of Instituto Educacional Santo Agostinho S.A. (“FASA”), through the acquisition of 90% of the Company´s shares, a post-secondary education institution and offers on-campus undergraduate medicine courses and a variety of other on-campus and distance learning post-secondary undergraduate and graduate education programs.

(ii) On May 9, 2019, Afya Brazil acquired control of Instituto de Pesquisa e Ensino Médico do Estado de Minas Gerais Ltda. (“IPEMED”), through the acquisition of 100% of IPEMED´s shares, a post-secondary education. The acquisition of IPEMED is in line with the Company’s strategy to focus on medical education, including post-graduate medical education.

(iii) On August 13, 2019, Afya Brazil acquired control of IPEC - Instituto Paraense de Educação e Cultura Ltda. (“IPEC”), through the acquisition of 100% of IPEC’s shares, previously a non-operational postsecondary education institution with governmental authorization to offer on-campus post-secondary undergraduate courses in medicine. On September 26, 2019, IPEC became operational in line with Company’s strategy focusing on medical education. Management assessed the aspects of such transaction and concluded that the transaction does not fall under the definition of business, but an acquisition of license with indefinite useful life recognized in intangible assets.

2 Significant accounting<br>policies

2.1 Basis for preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

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

The corporate reorganization described in Note 1, occurred on July 7, 2019, was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control whereby Afya Limited was created as a holding company of Afya Brazil. As a result, the assets and liabilities of Afya Brazil is carried at historical cost and there was no step-up in basis or goodwill, or other intangible assets recorded as a result of the corporate reorganization.

As a result, the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company subsequent to the completion of the reorganization are presented “as if” Afya Brazil is the predecessor of the Company. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements reflect: (i) the historical operating results of Afya Brazil prior to the reorganization; (ii) the consolidated results of the Company and Afya Brazil following the reorganization; (iii) the assets and liabilities of Afya Brazil at their historical cost; and (iv) the Company’s equity and earnings per share for all periods presented.

Afya Limited is a holding company, as such the primary source of revenue derives from its interest on the operational companies in Brazil. As result, the Brazilian Real has been assessed as the Company`s functional currency.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“BRL” or “R$”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand.

These consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 26, 2020.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

The Company consolidates the financial information for all entities it controls. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed to, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and it ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Company gains control until the date the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.

When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries in order to bring their accounting policies in line with the Company’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions are eliminated in full on consolidation.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Company loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity, while any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income.

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statements of financial position, consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and consolidated statements of changes in equity.

2.3 Summaryof significant accounting policies

This note provides a description of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements in addition to other policies that have been disclosed in other notes to these consolidated financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented, except for the application of the new accounting pronouncements as of January 1, 2019, as described in the note 2.4 Changes in accounting policies and disclosures.

The accounting policies have been consistently applied to all consolidated companies.

a) Businesscombinations and goodwill

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Company elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses.

When the Company acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as of the acquisition date.

F-11

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

Goodwill is initially measured at cost (being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any previous interest held over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed). If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Company re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Company’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquire are assigned to those units.

Where goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit (CGU) and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed in these circumstances is measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

b) Currentversus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current/non current classification. An asset is current when it is:

· Expected<br> to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;
· Held<br> primarily for the purpose of trading;
--- ---
· Expected<br> to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
--- ---
· Cash<br> or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability<br> for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
--- ---

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

· It<br> is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
· It<br> is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
--- ---
· It<br> is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
--- ---
· There<br> is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve<br> months after the reporting period.
--- ---

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

c) Fair valuemeasurement

The Company measures derivative financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date as disclosed in Note 13.3.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: (i) in the principal market for the asset or liability; or (ii) in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

· Level<br> 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or<br> liabilities.
· Level<br> 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to<br> the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
--- ---
· Level<br> 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to<br> the fair value measurement is unobservable.
--- ---

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

At each reporting date, the Company analyzes the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Company’s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Company verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

The Company also compares the change in the fair value of each asset and liability with relevant external sources to determine whether the change is reasonable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy, as explained above.

d) Financialinstruments – initial recognition and measurement

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

i) Financial assets

Initialrecognition and measurement

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or fair value through OCI (Other Comprehensive Income), it needs to give rise to cash flows that are “solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)” on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

F-14

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

Subsequentmeasurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified as: financial assets at amortized cost or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. There is no financial assets designated as fair value through OCI.

Financialassets at amortized cost

The Company measures financial assets at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:

• The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and

• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of income when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.

Financialassets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Financial assets with cash flows that are not solely payments of principal and interest are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognized in the statement of income. This category includes derivative instruments.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e., removed from the Company’s statement of financial position) when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or

• 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 either (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.

F-15

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognize the transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Impairmentof financial assets

Further disclosures relating to impairment of financial assets are also provided in the following notes:

• Significant accounting estimates and assumptions – Note 3

• Trade receivables – Note 8

The Company recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and the cash flows the Company expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

For trade receivables, the Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognizes an allowance for credit losses based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

The Company considers a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Company is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Company. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

ii) Financial liabilities

Initialrecognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade payables, loans and financing and accounts payable to selling shareholders.

Subsequentmeasurement

The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:

Financialliabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the Company that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by IFRS 9. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized in the statement of income.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in IFRS 9 are satisfied.

Loansand borrowings

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of income when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance expenses in the statement of income.

F-17

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of income.

Offsettingof financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

e) Derivativefinancial instruments

The Company has derivative financial instruments related to cross-currency interest rate swaps in connection with a loan denominated in Euros. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded directly to finance result in the statement of income.

f) Cash andcash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand, and short-term financial investments with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term financial investments, as they are considered an integral part of the Company’s cash management.

g) Restrictedcash

Restricted cash in the statement of financial position comprise of financial investments in investment funds that serve as collateral for loan agreements and other commitments.

h) Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The costs of inventories are based on the average cost method and include costs incurred in the purchase of inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to their current location and condition. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting any discounts and recoverable taxes.

i) Propertyand equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Machinery and equipment 10 years
Vehicles 4 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years
IT equipment 5 years
Library books 10 years
Laboratories and clinics 10 years
Leasehold improvements 5 years

An item of property and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefit is expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on the 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 residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

j) Leases

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, the determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease was based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset (or assets) and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset (or assets), even if that asset is (or those assets are) not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

A lease was classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Company was classified as a finance lease.

F-19

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease. The Company did not have leases classified as s finance lease. Operating lease payments were recognized as an operating expense in the statement of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As from January 1, 2019, the determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the contract. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset (or assets) and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset (or assets), even if that asset is (or those assets are) not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Right-of-use assets

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognized right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment.

Lease liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

F-20

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of properties (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

k) Intangibleassets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangibles are not capitalized and the related expenditure is reflected in the statement of income in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.

The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify 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 income in the expense category that is consistent with the function of the intangible assets.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

An intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon 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.

l) Impairmentof non-financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.

The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years, considering the companies activities and maturation period of its graduate and undergraduate courses. A long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the last projected year.

For impairment testing, goodwill acquired through business combinations and licenses with indefinite useful lives are allocated to their respective CGUs. The Company has defined each of its operating subsidiaries as a CGU.

Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in the statement of income in expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the statement of income.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as at December 31 and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU (or group of CGUs) to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually as at December 31 at the CGU level, as appropriate, and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

m) Investments

Investments in associates are initially recognized at consideration transferred and adjusted thereafter for the equity method, being increased or reduced from its interest in the investee's income after the acquisition date. An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies.

n) Accountspayable to selling shareholders

These amounts represent liabilities related to the acquisitions made by the Company wich are not yet due. Accounts payable to selling shareholders are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

o) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of income, net of any reimbursement, when applicable.

p) Dividendspayable

The Company recognizes a liability to pay a dividend when the distribution is authorized and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. The distribution is authorized when it is required to pay a minimum dividend of the net income for the year in accordance with the Brazilian Corporate Law (applicable for Afya Brazil) and the Company’s By-Laws or is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognized directly in equity.

q) Labor andsocial obligations

Labor and social obligations are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

r) Share-basedpayments

Certain key executives of the Company receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby the executives render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).

The expense of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model.

That expense is recognized in general and administrative expenses, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the service and, where applicable, the performance conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period). The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or credit in the statement of income for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that period.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through the statement of income.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

s) Revenuefrom contracts with customers

Tuition fees and other revenue

The Company's revenue consists primarily of tuition fees charged for medical courses and other courses. The Company also generates revenue from tuition fees for other undergraduate courses, student fees and certain education-related activities.

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 15, revenue was recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer and the collection of the consideration is probable, net of the corresponding discounts, return and taxes, and there is no continuing management involvement with the tuition fees charged for medical courses and other courses, tuition fees for other undergraduate courses, student fees and certain education-related activities and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.

Upon the adoption of IFRS 15 on January 1, 2018, revenues are recognized when services are rendered to the customer and the performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue from tuitions are recognized over time when services are rendered to the customer and the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contract at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services. Revenues from tuitions are recognized net of scholarships and other discounts, refunds and taxes.

Other revenues are recognized at a point in time when the service is rendered to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the service. Other revenues are presented net of the corresponding discounts, returns and taxes.

Printed books and e-books revenuetransferred at point in time

Revenue from sale of printed books and e-books is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of the goods at the customer’s location. The Company considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price for the printed books and e-books, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration, financing component, noncash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer to be not significant.

The Company has concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements.

The Company assesses collectibility on a portfolio basis prior to recording revenue. Generally, students cannot re-enroll for the next academic session without satisfactory resolution of any past-due amounts. If a student withdraws from an institution, the Company's obligation to issue a refund depends on the refund policy at that institution and the timing of the student's withdrawal. Generally, the refund obligations are reduced over the course of the academic term.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables represent the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in Financial instruments – initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Advances fromcustomers

Advances from customers (a contract liability) are the obligation to transfer services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer, as a result of pre-paid tuition received from students and is recognized separately in current liabilities, when the payment is received. Advances from customers are recognized as revenue when the Company performs all obligations related to the contract, generally in the following month.

t) Taxes

The Company’s subsidiaries joined the PROUNI (Programa Universidade para Todos – University for All Program) program, which is a federal program that exempts post-secondary institutions of some federal taxes in exchange for providing a certain number of student enrollment for low income students, and benefits from the exemption of the following federal taxes:

Income<br>taxes and social contribution
PIS<br>and COFINS
--- ---

The regulation of PROUNI defines that the revenue from traditional and technological graduation activities is exempt from PIS and COFINS. For income from other teaching activities, PIS and COFINS are charged at rates of 0.65% and 3.00%, respectively, and for non-teaching activities, PIS is charged at a rate of 1.65% and to COFINS at 7.6%.

Currentincome taxes

Current income taxes were calculated based on the criteria established by the Normative Instruction of the Brazilian Internal Revenue Service, specifically regarding the PROUNI program, which allows exemption of these taxes from traditional and technological graduation activities.

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

2.4 Changesin accounting policies and disclosures

New standards,interpretations and amendments adopted by the Company

The Company applied, for the first time on January 1, 2019, IFRS 16 Leases. The nature and effect of these changes are disclosed below.

Other amendments and interpretations were applied for the first time in 2019, but did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

IFRS 16 - Leases

IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet model.

The Company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method of adoption with the date of initial application of January 1, 2019. Under this method, the standard is applied retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application. The Company elected to use the transition practical expedient allowing the standard to be applied only to contracts that were previously identified as leases applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 at the date of initial application. The Company also elected to use the recognition exemptions for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option (‘short-term leases’), and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value (‘low-value assets’).

The effect of adoption of IFRS 16 as at January 1, 2019 is as follows:

Assets
Right-of-use<br> assets R$ 212,360
Liabilities
Lease liabilities R$<br> 212,360

Natureof the effect of adoption of IFRS16

The Company has lease contracts for properties. Before the adoption of IFRS 16, the Company classified each of its leases (as lessee) at the inception date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. The Company did not have finance leases as of December 31, 2018. In an operating lease, the leased property was not capitalized and the lease payments were recognized as rent expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Upon adoption of IFRS 16, the Company applied a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The standard provides specific transition requirements and practical expedients, which has been applied by the Company.

F-27

Afya Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise stated

The Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for those leases previously classified as operating leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The right-of-use assets for the leases were recognized based on the amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted for any related prepaid and accrued lease payments previously recognized. Lease liabilities were recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application.

The Company also applied the available practical expedients wherein it:

· Used<br> an incremental borrowing rate, according to the characteristics for each lease;
· Relied<br> on its assessment of whether leases are onerous immediately before the date of initial<br> application;
--- ---
· Applied<br> the short-term leases exemptions to leases with lease term that ends within 12 months<br> at the date of initial application;
--- ---
· Excluded<br> the initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of<br> initial application;
--- ---
· Used<br> hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend<br> or terminate the lease.
--- ---

The lease liabilities as at January 1, 2019 can be reconciled to the operating lease commitments as of December 31, 2018 as follows:

Operating<br> lease commitments as at December 31, 2018 520,795
Weighted average<br> incremental borrowing rate as at January 1, 2019 11.63%
Discounted operating<br> lease commitments at January 1, 2019 212,530
Less:
Commitments relating<br> to leases of short-term and low-value assets (170)
Lease liabilities as at January 1, 2019 212,360

IFRIC 23 -Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The Interpretation addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of IAS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of IAS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Interpretation specifically addresses the following:

· Whether<br> an entity considers uncertain tax treatments separately
· The<br> assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities
--- ---
· How<br> an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused<br> tax credits and tax rates
--- ---
· How<br> an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances
--- ---

The Company determines whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments and uses the approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty.

An entity has to determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments. The approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty needs to be followed. The Company applied the interpretation and did not have significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

IAS 12 - IncomeTaxes

The amendments clarify that the income tax consequences of dividends are linked more directly to past transactions or events that generated distributable profits than to distributions to owners.

Therefore, an entity recognizes the income tax consequences of dividends in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or equity according to where it originally recognised those past transactions or events.

An entity applies the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with early application permitted. When the entity first applies those amendments, it applies them to the income tax consequences of dividends recognised on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period.

Since the Company’s current practice is in line with these amendments, they had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

3 Significant accounting<br>estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods. 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.

Other disclosures relating to the Company’s exposure to risks and uncertainties includes:

· Capital<br> management – Note 15
· Financial<br> instruments risk management objectives and policies – Note 13.4
--- ---
· Sensitivity<br> analyses disclosures – Note 13.4.1

Estimates andassumptions

The key assumptions about the future and other key sources of estimated uncertainty as of the reporting date that include a significant risk of a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances that arise and that are beyond the Company’s control. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions where they occur.

Leases - Estimatingthe incremental borrowing rate

The Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of  a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The IBR therefore reflects what the Company ‘would have to pay’, which requires estimation when no observable rates are available (such as for subsidiaries that do not enter into financing transactions) or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the lease (for example, when leases are not in the subsidiary’s functional currency).

The Company estimates the IBR using observable inputs (such as market interest rates) when available and is required to make certain entity-specific estimates.

Identificationand fair-value measurement of assets and liabitlies acquired in a business combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Such method requires recognising and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The Company, as the acquirer, must classify or designate the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed on the basis of its own contractual terms, economic conditions, operating and accounting policies and other relevant conditions as at the acquisition date. Such assessment requires judgments from the Company on the methods used to determine the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including valuation techniques that may require prospective financial information inputs.

Impairmentof non-financial assets

Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs exceeds its recoverable amount, defined as the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on data available from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm’s length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs of disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model (“DCF” model). The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities to which the Company has not yet committed or significant future investments that will enhance the performance of the assets of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as to expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.

These estimates are most relevant to goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets recognized by the Company. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for each CGU, including a sensitivity analysis, are disclosed and further explained in Note 12.

Share-basedcompensation

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option or appreciation right, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. For the measurement of the fair value of equity-settled transactions, the Company uses the Binomial model. As discloused on Note 16 (b) the Company had stock plans that were fully exercicied on July 31, 2019, for which the Monte Carlo and Black & Scholes pricing model were used for the Afya Brazil and Guardaya plans, respectively. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 16 (b).

There were no revenues derived from the Business Unit 2 for the year ended December 31, 2018, given such segment has commenced following the business combinations occurred on March 29, 2019.

Seasonality of operations

Business Unit 1's tuition revenues do not have significant fluctuations during the year.

Business Unit 2's sales are concentrated in the first and last quarter of the year, as a result of enrollments at the beginning of the year. The majority of Business Unit 2's revenues is derived from printed books and e-books, which are recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Consequently, Business Unit 2 generally has higher revenues and results of operations in the first and last quarter of the year compared to the second and third quarters of the year.

(a) Acquisition of Guardaya

In connection with the corporate reorganization, on March 29, 2019, Afya Brazil merged (i) BR Health, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crescera that controls Guardaya and is one of Afya Brazil's shareholders; and (ii) Guardaya which owns 100% of Medcel Editora and CBB Web, resulting in the transfer to Afya Brazil of 100% of Medcel Editora and CBB Web shares. In connection with the transaction 15% of UEPC's shares were acquired. Afya Brazil issued 378,696 common shares as a consideration for the interest in BR Health and Guardaya. The fair value of the consideration given was R$ 259,113. This transaction was strategic to the Company and was accounted for under IFRS 3 – Business Combinations.

Transaction costs to date amount to R$ 482 and were expensed and are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

The goodwill recognized is primarily attributed to the expected synergies and other benefits arising from the transaction. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

At the acquisition date, the fair value of the trade receivables acquired equals its carrying amount. Afya Brazil measured the acquired lease liabilities using the present value of the remaining lease payments at the date of acquisition. The right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities and adjusted to reflect the unfavorable terms of the lease relative to market terms.

The valuation techniques used for measuring the fair value of separately identified intangible assets acquired were as follows:

Intangible assets acquired Valuation technique

From the date of acquisition, this business combination has contributed R$ 40,554 of net revenue and R$ 5,786 as income before income taxes to the Company. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the period, net revenue for 2019 would have been R$ 75,238 and income before income taxes for 2019 would have been R$ 21,924.

(b) Acquisition of FASA

On April 3, 2019, Afya Brazil acquired control of FASA, through the acquisition of 90% of its shares. The purchase price of R$ 201,565 is comprised by: i) R$ 102,330 paid in cash on the acquisition date; ii) R$ 39,695 payable in April 2020; iii) R$ 29,770 payable in April 2021; and iv) R$ 29,770 payable in April 2022, adjusted by the IPCA rate + 4.1% per year. This transaction was strategic to the Company and was accounted for under IFRS 3 – Business Combinations. There are no contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of FASA.

Transaction costs to date amount to R$ 1,887 and were expensed and are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

At the acquisition date, the fair value of the trade receivables acquired equals its carrying amount. The Company measured the acquired lease liabilities using the present value of the remaining lease payments at the date of acquisition. The right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities and adjusted to reflect the unfavorable terms of the lease relative to market terms.

The goodwill recognized includes the value of expected synergies arising from the acquisition, which is not separately recognized. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income taxes purposes.

The valuation techniques used for measuring the fair value of separately identified intangible assets acquired were as follows:

Intangible assets acquired Valuation technique

(c) Acquisition of IPEMED

On May 9, 2019, Afya Brazil acquired control of IPEMED, through the acquisition of 100% of its shares. IPEMED is a post-secondary education institution with campuses located in the states of Bahia, Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and in the Distrito Federal. It focuses on medical graduate programs. The purchase price was R$ 97,542, being: i) R$ 25,000 paid in cash as advance through April 2019; ii) R$ 27,239 paid in cash on the acquisition date; iii) R$45,303 payable in five annual installments due from February 2020 to February 2024 adjusted by the Interbank Certificates of Deposit ("CDI") rate. This transaction was strategic to the Company and was accounted for under IFRS 3 – Business Combinations. There are no contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of IPEMED.

Transaction costs to date amount to R$ 180 and were expensed and are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

The acquisition was completed recently and the valuation of property and equipment will be finalized at a later date, and the final allocation of the purchase price is dependent on a number of factors, including the final evaluation of the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date of the transaction.

At the acquisition date, the fair value of the trade receivables acquired equals its carrying amount. The Company measured the acquired lease liabilities using the present value of the remaining lease payments at the date of acquisition. The right-of- use assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities and adjusted to reflect the unfavorable terms of the lease relative to market terms.

The preliminary goodwill recognized includes the value of expected synergies arising from the acquisition, which is not separately recognized. None of the preliminary goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income taxes purposes.

The Company has not yet finalized the valuation of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination with IPEMED and therefore some of these amounts are preliminary. These amounts may be adjusted as valuations are finalized.

The valuation techniques used for measuring the fair value of separately identified intangible assets acquired were as follows:

(i) The amount of R$4,030 added to goodwill relates to adjustments during the measurement period of the business combination of IESP in respect to amounts to be included as part of the purchase price allocation at acquisition date mainly related to impairment of receivables.

(ii) On August 13, 2019, Afya Brazil entered into a purchase agreement with the shareholders of IPEC for the acquisition of 100% of IPEC. IPEC was a non-operational postsecondary education institution with governmental authorization to offer on-campus post-secondary undergraduate courses in medicine in the State of Pará, that commenced its operation in September 2019. Prior to the acquisition date, IPEC has no significant assets and liabilities. The purchase price of R$ 108,000 is comprised of: i) R$ 54,000 paid in cash on the acquisition date; ii) R$ 54,000 is payable in two equal instalments of R$ 27,000 payable annually from August 13, 2020 to August 13, 2021, and adjusted by the CDI rate.

Licenses with indefinite useful life include intangible assets acquired through business combinations. The licenses for medicine and other courses granted by the Ministry of Education (“MEC”) to the companies acquired have no expiration date and the Company has determined that these assets have indefinite useful lives.

For impairment testing goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful lives acquired through business combinations are allocated to CGUs.

The Company performed its annual impairment test on December 31, 2019 and 2018.

The Company tests at least annually the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful lives for each CGU. The process of estimating these values involves the use of assumptions, judgments and estimates of future cash flows that represent the Company's best estimate.

There was no impairment for goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful lives as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

As a result of the recent acquisitions during 2019 and 2018, the carrying amounts of certain CGUs, which includes the carrying amounts of goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful lives, are approximate to their value in use.

The carrying amounts of goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful life by CGU and their value in use and the discount rates used for the impairment assessment as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 was:

*Refers to Guardaya which owned 100% of Medcel and CBBW that are considered a single CGU.

The mainassumptions used by the Company to determine the value in use of the CGUs were:

Student enrollment– refer to the number of students that are currently enrolled in each CGU.

Tuition fees – is the monthly fee charged to students.

Occupancy rate – the occupancy rate of the medical schools is the ratio of the number of students effectively enrolled divided by the regulatorycapacity in a given period.

Regulatory capacity – the regulatory capacity is defined by the number of medical schools seats available per year awarded by MEC, multiplied by the number of years of operations since the seats were awarded.

Faculty – refer to the cost with faculty in the CGU, which means the amount paid to teachers and doctors.

Discountrates: discount rates represent the current market assessment of the risks specific to the CGU being tested. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 12.60% in 2019 and a range between 17.82% to 23.60% in 2018.

Significantestimate: impact of possible changes in key assumptions

An increase of 1,000 basis points in management’s estimated discount rate applied to the cash flow projections of each CGU for the year ended December 31, 2019 (13.6% instead of 12.6%), would have not resulted in the recognition of an impairment of goodwill. The Company also performed sensitivity analisys for other kay assumptios like net revenues, inflation and cost of services. A decrease of 2,000 basis points on estimated net revenues, an increase of 2,000 basis points on estimated costs of services or as increase or decrease of 10,000 basis points on estimated inflation would have not resulted in the recognition of an impairment of goodwill.

Other intangible assets

Intangible assets, other than goodwill and licenses with indefinite useful lives, are valued separately for each acquisition and are amortized during each useful life. The useful lives and methods of amortization of other intangibles are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:

Customer relationships – medicine 6 years
Customer relationships – other courses 4.5 years
Software license 5 years
Education content 3 years
Trademark 19 - 20 years

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no indicatives that the Company’s intangible assets with finite useful lives might be impaired.

Derivatives 757 757
Total 645,866 645,952 255,559 256,543

The Company assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables, other assets, trade payables, advances from customers and other liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recorded at fair value.

The fair value of interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined by using the DCF method using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own non-performance risk at December 31, 2019 was assessed to be insignificant.

13.4.Financial instruments risk management objectives and policies

The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and financing, accounts payable to selling shareholders, trade payables and advances from customers. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations. The Company’s principal financial assets include trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and financial investments classified as restricted cash that derive directly from its operations. The Company has also entered into derivative transactions to protect its exposure to foreign currency risk.

The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company monitors market, credit and operational risks in line with the objectives in capital management and counts with the support, monitoring and oversight of the Board of Directors in decisions related to capital management and its alignment with the objectives and risks. The Company’s policy is that no trading of derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below.

13.4.1 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Company’s exposure to market risk is related to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk.

The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at December 31, 2019.

(i) Interest rate risk

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’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s cash equivalents and financial investments classified as restricted cash with floating interest rates and accounts payable to selling shareholders.

Sensitivity analysis

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the current interest rates on cash equivalents, restricted cash, loans and financing and derivatives and accounts payable to selling shareholders. With all variables held constant, the Company’s income before income taxes is affected through the impact on floating interest rate, as follows:

Increase / decrease in basis points
Balance as of 12/31/2019 Index – % per year Base rate +75 -75 +150 -150
Cash equivalents 930,117 99.22% CDI 41,529 6,976 (6,976) 13,952 (13,952)

Accounts payable to selling shareholders (105,306) IPCA+4.1% 8,856 (790) 790 (1,580) 1,580
(ii) Foreign currency risk
--- ---

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates to the loan denominated in Euros in the amount of R$52,959 as of December 31, 2019 (December 31, 2018: R$77,829) and cash and cash equivalents denominated in U.S. dollars in the amount of R$2,529 as of December 31, 2019.

The Company manages its foreign currency risk by entering in cross-currency interest rate swap agreement to mitigate its exposure to the loan denominated in Euros with the same notional amount and loan’s maturities.

In this context, the Agreements state that the Company and its subsidiaries are indemnified and therefore exempt from any liability related to said contingent liabilities and, therefore, the provision amounts related to such contingencies are presented in the non-current liabilities and the correspondent amount of R$ 6,690 is presented in non-current other assets.

e) COVID-19

Afya has created an executive committee to address the challenges of COVID-19, which is closely monitoring the outbreak and ensuring that the Company complies with guidance from both the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education. Brazilian authorities have decreed mandatory temporary interruptions of educational activities in several locations, consequently, Afya has interrupted all on-campus activities, effective as of March 17, 2020 has temporarily moved the non-practical activities for all students to its online platform and reorganized the schedule of practical activities for when on-campus activities are allowed to resume. With that, Afya expects to mitigate any significant impact on the academic calendar of the first semester of 2020.

Mindful of all medical students in Brazil, including non-Afya students, the Company is also sensitive to the interruption of their studies. Accordingly, Afya has released temporary access to Afya's digital platform, free of charge for other medical education institutions over the next two months, extendable for the duration of the pandemic. With this initiative, the Company hopes to help other public and private medical schools to minimize the impact of the pandemic on their students.

Finally, Afya has successfully concluded most of the admissions cycle for the first semester of 2020 and its education services may remain on schedule if the impact of COVID-19 remains within the scope discussed above. While the Company is aware of the uncertainties created by COVID-19, it remains confident in its strategy, in the financial robustness of its business and in Afya’s contribution of high quality medical professionals who will help the society to overcome COVID-19 and other future challenges.

The Company carried out an analysis of the risks and uncertainties related to COVID-19 and as thus far no significant impacts requiring material adjustments to the financial statements have been identified. At the moment it is not possible to measure or anticipate the possible future economic and financial impacts arising from COVID-19 and the Company will continue to monitor the situation closely.
