2.	Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accounting policies described in detail below have been consistently applied to all periods presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are<br> applicable for the group consisting of VTEX and its subsidiaries. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Group.
---
a.	Basis for preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements
---	---
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of VTEX Group for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International<br> Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
---
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in an annual consolidated financial statement. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the<br> Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, and any public announcements made by the Group during the interim reporting period.
---
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the income tax estimation (see note 6) and the adoption of new and amended standards as set out below.
---
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars (“USD”, “US$”, or “$”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousands, except<br> when otherwise indicated.
---
b.	New standards, interpretations, and amendments adopted by the Group
---	---
In 2022 the Company has adopted the following new interpretation and amendments: (i) Amendments to IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment; (ii) Amendments to IFRS 3 - Business Combinations; and (iii) Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards<br> 2018–2020.
---
These interpretations and amendments had no impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group.
---
c.	Critical estimates and accounting judgments
---	---
Management has made judgments and estimates that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Accounting<br> estimates and judgments are continually evaluated 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<br> prospectively.
---
In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgments and estimates made by management in applying the<br> Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those set at the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. No retrospective adjustments were made.

16.	Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding<br> during the year.
---
Diluted earnings per share are computed by giving effect to all potential weighted average dilutive common stock, including options and restricted stock units.
---

(i) Financial instruments valued at amortized cost

Financial instruments valued at amortized cost represent financial assets and liabilities whose Group’s business model maintained to receive contractual cash flows. The aforementioned comprise exclusively payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified, or impaired.

The Group has the following financial instruments valued at amortized cost:

The instrument had a<br> total notional value of US$ 4.600 and was fully settled on March 15, 2022 for USD 718.
---	---

The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge against the risk of change in the foreign exchange rates. Therefore, they are not speculative. The derivative financial instruments designated in hedge operations are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which the derivative contract is executed and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value. Changes in the fair value of any of these derivative instruments are immediately recognized in the income statement under "net financial income".

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Group had positions in Swap derivative financial instruments designated as a hedge of foreign currency debt, raised through Itaú bank. The hedge contracts had maturity dates equal to those of the loan raised in foreign currency, which was also raised through Itaú bank. The last hedge contract matures in May 2023.

The following amounts were recognized in profit or loss in relation to derivatives:

	Three months ended					Six months ended

a.	Fair value hierarchy

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

	June 30, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets
Short-term investments		225,113		-		-
Liabilities
Accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries (“earn-out”)		-		-		1,552
	December 31, 2021
---	---	---	---	---	---	---
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets
Short-term investments		177,191		-		-
Liabilities
Derivative financial instruments		-		133		-
Accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries (“earn-out”)		-		-		4,953

There were no transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3 for recurring fair value measurements during the first semester of 2022.

The Group’s policy is to recognize transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.

•	Level 1:<br> The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and equity securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial<br> assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
•	Level 2:<br> The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as<br> possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
---	---
•	Level 3:<br> If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities.

•	for foreign currency forwards - the present value of future cash flows based on the forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date;
---	---

The majority of the resulting fair value estimates are included in level 2, except for a contingent consideration payable (“earn-out”), where the fair values have been determined based on present values and the discount rates used were adjusted for counterparty or own credit risk.

Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (level 3)

The fair value of the earn-out classified as level 3 is calculated based on the judgment of the Group and the probability of meeting the goals of each acquisition made during the year. The Sale and Purchase agreement of each acquisition is established if the clients of the acquired entities migrate to the Groups platform and reach an agreed amount, the seller will be entitled to an earn-out. As at June 30 2022, the fair value of the earn-out amounts US$ 1,552 (December 31, 2021 - US$ 4,953). Refer to note 4 of our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for more details about the earn-out.

The following table presents changes in the maximum earn-out, which are the only level 3 items for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

	2022
At January 1		4,953
Acquisitions of subsidiaries		-
Payments of principal/finance charges - earn-out		(736	)
Earn-out adjustments		(2,667	)
Exchange differences		2
At June 30		1,552
b.	Fair values of other financial instruments (unrecognized)
---	---

The group also has a number of financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. As at June 30, 2022, for these instruments, the fair values are not different to their carrying amounts, since the interest receivable/payable is either close to current market rates or the instruments are short-term in nature. Differences were identified for the following instruments at June 30, 2022:


Financial liabilities
Loans and financing	2,396	2,410

18.2.	Financial risk management

The risk management of the Group is predominantly controlled by a central treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the board of directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates, and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

When all relevant criteria have been met, hedge accounting will be applied to remove the accounting mismatch between the hedging instrument and the hedged item. This will effectively result in recognizing interest expense at a fixed interest rate for the hedged floating rate loans and inventory at the fixed foreign currency rate for the hedged purchases.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, available in the 20-F filing.

19.	Subsequent events

On August 8, 2022, the Board of Directors of VTEX authorized the Company to repurchase Class A common shares of the Company, par value US$0.0001 per share, for an aggregate consideration of up to US$30.0 million. This authorization is scheduled to expire on August 8, 2023.

  Repurchases under the Company's program may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws, including the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18. The timing of repurchases will
  depend on factors including market conditions and prices, the Company’s liquidity requirements and alternative uses of capital.

  The share repurchase program could be suspended from time to time or discontinued, and there is no assurance as to the number of shares that will be repurchased under the program or that there will be any repurchases.

  The timing and amount of shares repurchased \(if any\) will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan.
  Any repurchased shares may be canceled or remain available for use in connection with its equity incentive plans and for other corporate purposes.

Item 2 – Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section may contain certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of events may differ significantly from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements for several reasons, including those described in our prior filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following analysis and discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 included elsewhere in this document.

Overview

VTEX is where commerce happens. Our platform is designed to be the Operating System for the commerce ecosystem. We enable enterprise brands and retailers to orchestrate their complex network of consumers, business partners, suppliers, and fulfillment providers. We are building the global digital commerce infrastructure that enables enterprises to be relevant for the modern, convenience-driven consumer.

VTEX provides a software-as-a-service digital commerce platform for enterprise brands and retailers. Our platform enables our customers to execute their commerce strategy, including building online stores, integrating and managing orders across channels, and creating marketplaces to sell products from third-party vendors. Founded in Brazil, we have been a leader in accelerating the digital commerce transformation in Latin America and are expanding globally. Our platform is engineered to enterprise-level standards and functionality with approximately 81% of our GMV coming from large, blue-chip companies (i.e. customers withmore than US$10 million of GMV per year). As of December 31, 2021 we are trusted by more than 2,400 customers with over 3,200 active online stores across 38 countries to connect with their consumers in a meaningful way.

We benefit from the acceleration of digitalization globally, and in particular in Latin America, the fastest-growing region in the world in 2020, where ecommerce is still underpenetrated. Accelerating ecommerce growth, evolving consumer expectations and the proliferation of digital shopping alternatives are raising the bar for brands and retailers in order to stay relevant. Legacy structures developed over years force enterprises to choose between deep customization and speed to market. Our technology combined with our ecosystem of partners solves this problem. We deliver flexibility and simplicity to complex, mission critical commerce operations. VTEX was named as leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide B2C Digital Commerce Platforms 2020 Vendor Assessment, and Gartner Named us as a Visionary in its 2020 report, Magic Quadrant for Digital Commerce, Worldwide

We offer access to our platform on a subscription basis, which accounted for 94.7% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our subscription revenue is based on a fixed subscription fee and a transaction-based fee. The transaction-based fee accounts for most of our subscription revenues and is primarily structured as a take rate or percentage of the total value of the orders processed through our platform, including value added taxes and shipping, which we refer to as our GMV. Our transaction-based fee model aligns our success with our customers’ success and our revenue grows as our customers’ GMV grows. In the three months ended June 30, 2022, our GMV increased to US$ 3.1 billion from US$ 2.4 billion in the three months ended June 30, 2021 representing an increase of 27.6% in USD and 21.0% on an FX neutral basis. In the same period, our revenue increased to US$ 38.7 million from US$ 30.9 million, representing an increase of 25.4% in USD and 19.5% on an FX neutral basis.

Key metric— Gross merchandise value

The key metric we use to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate our business plan projections and support our strategic decisions is GMV. Due to the seasonality of ecommerce and the foreign exchange effects resulting from the volatility of the currencies of the jurisdictions where we operate (particularly Latin America countries) vis-à-vis the U.S. Dollar (which is our functional currency), our management compares GMV on a year-over-year and foreign exchange neutral basis. The foreign exchange neutral measures are calculated by using the average monthly exchange rates for each month during the previous year, adjusted by inflation in countries with hyper-inflation, and applying them to the corresponding months of the current year, so as to calculate what our results would have been had exchange rates remained stable from one year to the next.

Key metric— Gross merchandise value (continued)

GMV is the total value of customer orders processed through our platform, including value added taxes and shipping. Our GMV does not include the value of orders processed by our SMB customers or B2B transactions. Due to our transaction-based subscription model, we believe that GMV growth is linked with our revenue growth and we track GMV as an indicator of the success of our customers, the performance of the platform and our market share.

Seasonality and quarterly operations results

Our transaction-based subscription model, similar to most retail businesses, experiences seasonal fluctuations. Historically, we have generated higher net sales in the fourth quarter, as a consequence of the concentration of special dates during that quarter.

The following table sets forth our quarterly condensed consolidated interim profit (loss) statement data for each of the last historical nine quarters. The condensed consolidated interim profit (loss) statement data below has been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this document and, in our opinion, reflects all necessary adjustments, consisting only of ordinary course recurring adjustments, necessary to present this information fairly and accurately. These historical quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any future period. In particular, since the second quarter of 2020 we were positively affected by the ecommerce surge as a consequence of lockdowns during the COVID-19 Pandemic. We expect seasonal patterns to remain the same as in prior years and we believe that the expansion of ecommerce may normalize once the COVID-19 pandemic is sufficiently controlled, which may adversely affect our financial performance and operating metrics in the future. See below “—Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic.”.

Impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ecommerce market experienced a surge in growth. Governments encouraged consumers to stay at home for extended periods of time, and retail purchases shifted from offline and brick-and-mortar purchases to online ecommerce, as companies accelerated the digitalization of their businesses. Consequently, ecommerce sales in our major markets have increased significantly. Our business responded to the shifting commerce dynamics, enabling our customers to rapidly scale and digitally transform their businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our customers' GMV increase has resulted in significant revenue growth for us, driven predominantly by our transaction-based fees.

In 2021, online commerce penetration continued to increase, demonstrating that the 2020 acceleration in online consumption appears sustainable, despite the gradual reopening of brick-and-mortar retail stores which generated a mean reversion of ecommerce growth. While we believe that the structural shifts that favor ecommerce will continue as the world recovers from COVID-19, we do not expect to experience the same growth in our business going forward. For example, in the three months ended June 30, 2022, our revenue increased 25.4% in U.S. dollars and 19.5% on an FX neutral basis compared to 2021 – while revenues increased 22.1% in U.S. dollars and 18.2% on an FX neutral basis in the three month ended June 30, 2021 compared to 2020. We believe that the expansion of ecommerce may normalize once the COVID-19 pandemic is fully lapped, which may adversely affect our financial performance and operating metrics.

Components of our results of operations

The following is a summary of the principal line items comprising condensed consolidated interim income of profit and loss.

Total revenue

Our total revenue consists of (1) subscription and support revenue, arising from a multichannel cloud and SaaS-based platform focused on ecommerce; and (2) revenue from professional services and other, arising substantially from consulting services.

Subscription revenue

Subscription revenue consists of revenue derived from (1) a mix of transaction-based fees and fixed subscription fees, in each case derived from customers using our platform; (2) our SMB business; and (3) other business units that generate recurring revenue to us.

Transaction-based fees comprise (a) commission fees charged to customers based on a percentage of the GMV or a fee per order processed on our platform; and (b) commission fees charged to marketplace partners, payment providers, and any other services provided through our app store.

Fixed subscription fees comprise (a) yearly or multi-year upfront fees paid by merchants to reduce future variable fees. In case of early termination of the annual upfront fees, we refund merchants for the remaining term of the contract; and (b) fixed monthly fee for using our platform in any given month. Fixed fees are paid to us at the beginning of the applicable subscription period, regardless of the length of the subscription period. As subscription fees are received in advance of providing the related services, we record deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheet for the unearned revenue and recognize revenue ratably over the related subscription period.

Services revenue

Services revenue consists primarily of revenue derived from consulting services which are recognized over time during the period that services are performed. Services revenue accounted for 5.3% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 3.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended on June 30, 2022, the consulting services revenue accounted for 5.7% of our revenue, compared to 4.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Cost of revenue

Our total cost consists of (1) subscription cost; and (2) services cost.

Subscription cost of revenue

Subscription cost consists mainly of costs related to hosting related and customer support costs. The hosting related costs include third-party providers, software related platform operating costs, and compensation for our infrastructure team. Support costs are mostly driven by personnel cost, and represent expenses related to the support we provide to our customers.

Services cost of revenue

Services cost consist mainly of personnel costs and/or third-party expenses to provide the professional services advisory for a specific project of a customer project.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of general and administrative expenses, sales and marketing expenses, and research and development expenses.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of (1) personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation) for our finance, support operation departments, legal and compliance teams; (2) corporate expenses; and (3) corporate overhead allocation. General and administrative expenses also include costs related to business acquisitions, legal and other professional services fees and depreciation and amortization.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of (1) personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation) and commissions paid to the direct sales team, the success team, partnership sales team and sales enablement team; (2) travel-related expenses; (3) marketing and events expenses; (4) finder fee commissions; and (5) the allocation of corporate overhead. We plan to continue to incur sales and marketing expenses in the regions that we currently have a presence as well as in new regions over time in order to continue to enhance our brand awareness and our capabilities to attract new customers.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of (1) personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation) for product development, product management and product design; (2) software subscription costs related to the product; and (3) the allocation of corporate overhead. We expect to increase the research and development expenses to continue investing in product innovation, and in the development of new products.

Financial results

Financial results consist of financial income and financial expenses. Financial income consists of interest earned on bank deposits, foreign exchange gains, short-term investment gains and other financial income. Financial expense consists mostly of foreign exchange losses, short-term investment losses, losses from fair value of financial instruments, interest on lease liabilities and adjustment of hyperinflation in Argentina.

Income tax

Provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes, current and deferred, in certain foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. The current and deferred income taxes are calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries in which we operate and generate taxable income.

Currently we are running losses in most of our subsidiaries, and to that extent and considering the profitability expected in the foreseeable future our most relevant operation has been booking the related tax losses as part of our deferred tax assets.

Explanations for the variations in the above referred period are set forth below:

Financial income

Financial income increased by US$ 2.6 million, or 119.9%, to US$ 4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from US$2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to (1) an increase in gains from fair value of fair value of financial instruments to US$ 0.8 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 0.2 million in June 30, 2021 and; (2) an increase in foreign exchange gains to US$ 2.1 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 0.7 million in June 30, 2021, which was partially offset by foreign exchange losses as detailed below.

Financial income increased by US$ 6.4 million, or 257.7%, to US$ 9.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from US$2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to (1) an increase in gains from fair value of fair value of financial instruments to US$ 3.3 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 1.5 million in June 30, 2021 and; (2) an increase in foreign exchange gains to US$ 3.8 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 0.8 million in June 30, 2021, which was partially offset by foreign exchange losses as detailed below.

Financial expense

Financial expense increased by US$6.6 million, or 190%, to US$10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from US$3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to (1) short-term investment losses given rising interest rates and general risk-off environment negatively affected our US$225.1 million investments compared to nil in June 30, 2021 and; (2) an increase in foreign exchange losses to US$ 2.0 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 0.6 million in June 30, 2021, which was partially offset by foreign exchange gains as detailed above. Offsetting the increases mentioned before there was a decrease in losses from fair value of derivative financial instruments to US$ 0.3 million in June 30, 2022 from 1.8 million in June 30, 2021.

Financial expense increased by US$13.9 million, or 264%, to US$19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from US$5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to (1) short-term investment losses given rising interest rates and general risk-off environment negatively affected our US$225.1 million investments compared to nil in June 30, 2021 and; (2) an increase in foreign exchange losses to US$ 3.6 million in June 30, 2022 from US$ 1.5 million in June 30, 2021, which was partially offset by foreign exchange gains as detailed above.

Net cash used in financing activities		(3,186	)		(10,950	)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(90,977	)		(34,380	)

Net cash used in operating activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities increased by US$7.0 million to US$28.6 million from US$21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of:

●

(1) an increase in net loss to US$40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of US$27.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the expansion of our workforce; and (2) working capital adjustments which consisted mainly of an increase in accounts payable and accrual expenses in the amount of US$1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to an increase of US$9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and a decrease in deferred revenue in the amount of US$1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to an increase of US$6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This was partially offset by:

Net cash used in investing activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities increased by US$57.4 million to US$59.2 million from US$1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of (1) an increase in the purchase of short term investment to US$111.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from nil for the six months ended June 30, 2021; which was partially offset by an increase in the redemption of short-term investments to US$53.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from nil for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Net cash used in financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by US$7.8 million to US$3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from US$11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in the payments of loans and financing to US$1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from US$9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Capital expenditures

Our capital expenditures, consisting of purchase of property and equipment, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, amounted to US$0.2 million and US$1.1 million, respectively, representing 0.2% and 1.9% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We expect to slightly increase our capital expenditures to support the growth in our business and operations. For 2022, we have budgeted capital expenditures of US$2.0 million. We expect to meet our capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months from our net cash provided by operating activities and our existing cash and cash equivalents.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

As of June 30, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, derivative financial instruments, credit risk and liquidity risk. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about these market risks is described below:

Interest rate risk

The interest risk arises from the possibility of us incurring losses due to fluctuations in interest rates in respect of fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument.

Our main exposure to interest rate risk is related to loans and financing payable subject to variable interest rate, principally the CDI rate. Our investments are made for capital preservation purposes and we do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Our trade receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities do not bear interest.

The following table summarize our financial instruments exposed to an interest rate risk as of June 30, 2022:

Transaction	Interest rate risk (i)	Book value
		(in millions of US)
Loans and financing	CDI and TJLP
Accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries	CDI

All values are in US Dollars.

(i) Risk-free interest rate in Brazilian Reais.

As of June 30, 2022, we are not materially exposed to the risk of changes in market interest rates mostly due to the purpose of our investments.

Foreign currency exchange risk

We have significant operations internationally that are denominated in foreign currencies. Our exposure to foreign exchange risk is primarily related to fluctuations between the U.S. Dollar and the Latin American countries in which we operate (primarily the Brazilian real, Argentine peso, Colombian peso and Chilean peso). We transact business in various foreign currencies and have significant international revenues and costs. Our cash flows, results of operations and certain of our intercompany balances are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations that may differ materially from expectations. We may record significant gains or losses due to foreign currency fluctuations and related hedging activities.

Our subsidiaries generate revenues and incur most of their expenses in the respective local currencies of the countries in which they operate. As a result, our subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency. As of the six months ended June 30,2022 and in the year ended December 31, 2021, 16.4% and 17.3% of our revenues were denominated in, or linked to, U.S. dollars, respectively. As of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and in the year ended December 31, 2021, our assets were represented by 70.5% and 69.6% in U.S. dollars, 29.5% and 30.4% in other currencies. As of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and in the year ended December 31, 2021, our liabilities, excluding our total shareholders’ equity, were represented by 15.6% and 16.9% in U.S. dollars, 84.4% and 83.1% in other currencies.

We are exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations on the revaluation of foreign currency assets and liabilities. We use foreign exchange derivative products to hedge intercompany loans, and debt for operational purposes. By their nature, derivative financial instruments involve risk, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties. We use derivatives for hedging purposes and not as speculative investments.
