2017 was a transformational year for Gafisa, drawing attention to: (i) the reduction and restructuring of the Company’s organizational structure, with direct impact on efficiency; (ii) the conclusion of operational and corporate separation of Tenda and Gafisa; (iii) the capital increase approved in 2017 and ratified on February 28, 2018, totaling R$250.8 million, enhancing Gafisa’s operational positioning to this new cycle of the real estate market; and (iv) the postponement of  R$456.3 million debt of the Company for 2020 and 2021, as condition for the capital increase, substantially reducing pressure over cash flows in the short term. This new structure allows the Company to directly answer to business opportunities in our target market, therefore, positively impacting on our operational performance.  

Concerning the macroeconomic scenario, political uncertainties still impacted Brazil in 2017 and more favorable economic indicators were only seen as of the second half of the year. This gradual recovery, although positive, was not sufficient to bolster an upturn of the real estate market in 2017. Since this is a long-cycle market, it is one of the sectors which take longer to respond to an improved business environment. 

Such dynamics between economy and real estate market is even more relevant in the middle and mid-high income residential segment, where Gafisa concentrates its operations. Within this context, the Company outlined a strategy focused on its efforts to sell inventories, with lower level of judiciously designed launches in the markets where the Company operates. In 2017, five projects were launched totaling R$554.0 million in PSV, 39.8% lower than in 2016. Out of these projects, three came from the middle-income segment Moov (Moov Parque Maia, Moov Espaço Cerâmica and Moov Estação Brás) and two from the high-income segment Line (J330 and Parque Ecoville). The 50.0% sale of these launches in 2017 validates Gafisa’s decision-making process and commercialization of new products. Total inventories went down 13.0% versus 2016.

                A reduced number of launches in 2017 impacted gross sales, which dropped 14.2% to R$1,132 million. For same reason, in 4Q17, gross sales were 50.5% and 52.4% lower than in 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively and totaled R$271.0 million.

                In 2017, dissolutions went down 19.1% over 2016, to R$411.7 million. Despite signs of improvement, especially when compared to two previous years, dissolutions still pose potential uncertainties for the sector, as evidenced by a 4Q17 performance amounting to R$95.4 million, 13.1% higher than 3Q17.

                Net pre-sales, reflecting the factors mentioned above, decreased 11.7% in 2017, to R$720.2 million. In 4Q17, net pre-sales came to R$121.9 million, 65.7% and 65.8% lower than in 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively. On the other hand, efficient inventory sales and reasonable launches resulted in 0.5 p.p. growth in the 12-month SoS, which ended 2017 at 32.0%. SoS in 4Q17 was 7.4%, reflecting the lower level of launches.

Net revenue in 2017 was down 33.5% to R$608.8 million. Net pre-sales concentrated in more recent projects with slower work evolution impedes a faster recovery of revenues. In 4Q17, net revenue came to R$164.7 million, in line with R$160.3 million in 3Q17, but 37.6% lower than in 4Q16.

Another effect of sales concentrated in more recent projects is evidenced in deferred income, which totaled R$215.8 million in 4Q17 with 34.8% margin, similar to 3Q17 and 13.0% higher than in 4Q16. 

General and administrative expenses totaled R$92.7 million 2017, down 13.0% year-on-year and 20.3% considering the average of the last four years, as a result of the Company’s efforts to increase operations’ efficiency and productivity. In 4Q17, general and administrative expenses totaled R$24.2 million. Selling expenses also decreased 7.8% year-on-year to R$87.6 million. In 4Q17, expenses went down 26.6% to R$24.4 million and increased 6.4% from 3Q17.

Accounting adjustments were recorded in 4Q17 which impacted the period’s results. The first adjustment was due to the goodwill impairment test to remeasure the 30% stake in Alphaville, yearly carried out based on the future profitability estimate or when circumstances indicate impairment loss, which identified the need of recognizing a provision for losses of R$127.4 million which, together with the negative result of R$186.9 million in the equity in this investment, totaled an impact of R$314.million in 2017. The second was pricing adjustments of inventory units, which were being sold below the accounting value due to the unfavorable conditions in the real estate market, in addition to certain land areas totaling R$147.3 million.

Thus, Gafisa’s net loss in 2017 totaled R$849.9 million and R$462.6 million in 4Q17. Excluding the effects mentioned above and Alphaville’s equity income, Gafisa’s net loss in 2017 was R$486.4 million and R$125.3 million in 4Q17.

In regards to liquidity and cash management, the operating cash flow totaled R$321.8 million in 2017, with net cash generation of R$104.2 million, excluding the inflow of funds from Tenda transaction. In 4Q17, the operating cash generation totaled R$31.8 million.

Gafisa ended 2017 with a net debt of R$958.0 million, down 30.9% from 2016. Leverage, measured by the net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was up to 126.1% in 2017, mainly impacted by impairments and equity results in Alphaville, inventories, and land. Excluding project finance, the net debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was 29.5%.

The end of cycle referring to the strategic planning executed over the past four years, comprising the organizational restructuring, the divestment in Alphaville and the separation from Tenda, combined with capital increase completed in 2018, position Gafisa more comfortably for an eventual recovery of the Brazilian real estate market.

Launches

The single launch in the quarter was Moov Estação Brás (São Paulo/SP), a project with total PSV of R$90.1 million. In 2017, launches totaled R$554.0 million in PSV, divided into five projects, four in São Paulo and one in Curitiba (the third phase of Parque Ecoville). Sales of projects launched in 2017 reached 50.0% until December 2017, validating Gafisa’s decision-making process and commercialization of new products.

Net Pre-Sales

Reduced launches impacted gross sales in 4Q17, which were 50.5% and 52.4% lower than in 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively, and totaled R$217.0 million. Dissolutions dropped 4.6% from 4Q16, even so, they were up 13.1% from 3Q17, evidencing that there are still uncertainties in the sector. As a result, net pre-sales reached R$121.9 million, decreasing 65.7% and 65.8% compared to 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively.

In 2017, gross sales totaled R$1,132 million, 14.2% lower than in 2016, reflecting Gafisa’s strategy of concentrating on inventory sales, with only precise and sensible launches. Dissolutions followed the lower volume of deliveries and fell 19.1% to R$411.7 million in 2017. Thus, net sales were 11.1% lower than in 2016 and totaled R$720.2 million.

 

The projects launched prior to 2017 accounted for 61.4% of net sales in 2017, according to the strategy already mentioned. Among the sale of these remaining projects, 80.6% were projects launched by the end of 2015, improving our inventory profile. Dissolutions, in turn, were higher in projects launched until 2014, where work has progressed further, with consequent impact on revenue recognition and margin composition.

Sales over Supply (SoS)

The reduced number of launches impacted quarterly SoS which was 7.3% in 4Q17, and SoS accumulated in twelve months, which reached 32.0%, 5.6 p.p. lower than in 3Q17. On the other hand, the 0.5 p.p. SoS growth in the last 12 months between 4Q17 and 4Q16 reflects the efficient inventory sale and Gafisa’s assertive launches in 2017.

Inventory (Property for Sale)

                The inventory at market value reached R$1,531.6 million at the end of 4Q17, 3.1% lower than in 3Q17. Compared to 2016, inventory decreased 13.0%, more significantly representing the strategy of focusing on the sale of inventories with reduced number of launches.

¹ Adjustments reflect the updates related to the project scope, launch date and pricing update in the period.

 

Gafisa continues to maintain a commercial balance between launches and finished units. The inventory of finished units fell from R$507.2 million (32.1% of total inventory) in 3Q17 to R$473.5 million in 4Q17 (30.9% of total). Compared to 2016, this decrease was sharper and reached 20.1%.

The inventory of projects outside the strategic markets, of R$61.3 million, represents 4.0% of the total inventory, of which 59.3% are finished units.

Of the total inventory completed, 60.8% are commercial projects. This proportion is due to lower sales speed in this segment, where liquidity is still relatively lower.

Over the past few years, the Company has been taking steps to improve the performance of its receivables/transfer process, in an attempt to achieve higher rates of return on capital employed. Currently, the Company’s strategy is to transfer 90% of eligible units in a 90-day period after the delivery of the project. In accordance with this policy, transfers in 4Q17 totaled R$74.8 million, 45.2% lower than in 4Q16 and 40.4% lower than in 3Q17, due to a reduced number of deliveries in the period. In the last 12 months, transfers totaled R$441.2 million in 2017 and for the same reason were 40.4% lower than the same period in in 2016.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

Revenue

Net revenues in 2017 totaled R$608.8 million, down 33.5% from 2016. In 4Q17 net revenues totaled R$164.7 million, up 2.7% from 3Q17 and down 37.6% from 4Q16. Revenue recognition is affected by the mix of net sales in the period, with sales concentrated in the most recent launches, with small percentage of completed work and, consequently, lower revenue recognition. Dissolutions are still materially impacting the Company’s revenues.

Gross Profit & Margin

Adjusted gross profit and margin in the 4Q17 were impacted by provisions totaling R$147.5 million due to pricing adjustments to certain land areas and inventory units, which were sold below the accounting value. Thus, Gafisa recognized a gross loss of R$170.7 million in the quarter, accumulating a gross loss of R$209.9 million in 2017. Excluding these adjustments, the recurring adjusted gross profit would reach R$2.0 million in 4Q17 and would end the year at R$53.9 million. The recurring adjusted gross margin would be 1.2% in 4Q17 and 8.9% in 2017.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)

In our efforts towards greater efficiency, in 2017, we adopted a new and more balanced operational structure design. This redesign showed positive results, allowing costs and expenses reductions and placing us in a competitive position, with greater efficiency and speed, for a potential new development cycle of the Brazilian real estate market.

In 4Q17, the selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) totaled R$48.6 million, 9.5% up from 3Q17 and 26.2% down from 4Q16. In the year to date, the SG&A totaled R$180.3 million, 10.5% down from the same period in 2016.

General and administrative expenses totaled R$24.2 million, down 25.7% from 4Q16. The 12.7% increase compared to 3Q17 reflects IT licenses’ renewals and results sharing provision. The annual reduction reached 13.0%.

Selling expenses totaled R$24.4 million, a 6.4% increase from the 3Q17. In comparison to 4Q16, selling expenses went down 26.6%, mainly due to a reduced volume of launches. In 2017, the decrease was 7.8%, effect of lower sales volume in the period.

Financial Results

In the 4Q17, financial results totaled R$6.0 million, 8.3% lower than in 3Q17 and 39.1% lower than in 4Q16, reflecting the lower cash balance in the period and the interest rate drop incurring on this balance. Financial expenses reached R$30.3 million, compared to the R$27.7 million in 3Q17 and R$25.5 million in 4Q16, mainly, reflecting the financial expenses related to the issue of debentures in the period.

Therefore, the net financial result was negative R$24.2 million in the 4Q17, compared to the negative net financial results of R$21.1 million in the 3Q17 and R$15.6 million in the 4Q16. The accumulated net financial result was R$107.3 million negative in 2017.

Taxes

In the 4Q17, the income tax and social contribution line was positive at R$24.8 million, reflecting the tax credit of R$25.0 million deriving from the impairment of goodwill recorded in Alphaville. For this same reason, provision for income tax and social contribution was R$23.1 million positive in 2017.

Net Income

As a result of the effects previously discussed, the net income in the 4Q17, excluding the results of the Alphaville’s equity income and the adjustments to the inventory and land pricing and goodwill of interest in Alphaville, was negative R$125.3 million, compared to a net loss of R$100.6 million in 3Q17 and R$134.1 million in 4Q16. In the year to date, the recurring adjusted net loss was R$486.4 million.

The operating cash generation totaled R$32.0 million in the 4Q17, lower than the R$93.0 million generated in 3Q17, mainly due to the lower number of delivered projects and consequent reduction in transfers and higher construction cost due to the start of construction works in certain projects.

At the end of the 4Q17, the Company’s Net Debt/Shareholders’ Equity ratio was 126.1%, reflecting the quarterly adjustments and accumulated losses over the last periods, higher than the debt reduction. Excluding project finance, the Net Debt/Shareholders’ Equity ratio was 29.5%.

It is worth mentioning that, in December 2017, Gafisa paid to Caixa Economica Federal the last installment of the 7 th Issuance of Debentures, totaling R$157.5 million, including principal and interest. The funds partially derived from the anticipated refund referring to Tenda’s capital reduction.

In the 4Q17, the gross debt reached R$1.1 billion, down 9.4% q-o-q and and withnexpressive reduction of 32.5% y-o-y. The net debt amounted to R$958 million, 9.9% lower than in 3Q7.

On February 28, 2018, Gafisa’s Board of Directors ratified the capital increase approved at the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held in December 2017. This capital increase totaling R$250.8 million, contributed to adjust the Company’s capital structure and strengthen its operational positioning to this new cycle of the Brazilian real estate market.

The Company assessed the recovery of goodwill adopting the concept of “value in use”, using a discounted cash flows model, which involves the use of cash flows assumptions, judgments and estimates. These assumptions are based on the business plan approved by Management and on market comparable data. The main assumptions adopted were: a) revenues – projected between 2018 and 2022 considering sales growth, work progress and customer base; b) operating costs and expenses projected in line with historical performance and historical growth of revenues; c) discount rate – 14.70% (nominal), d) growth rate used to extrapolate cash flow projections – 6.8% and e) perpetuity – 4.1% p.a. growth corresponding to the estimate of long-term inflation projected by the Brazilian Central Bank.

It is also worth mentioning that due to the negative shareholders’ equity of Alphaville at the end of 2017, the Company reduced to zero the accounting balance of its 30% stake in Alphaville, which accordingly, implies the end of future consolidation of losses into Gafisa due to Alphaville’s results by means of equity income. From now on, only Alphaville’s positive results in the future may favorably impact Gafisa’s results, except for any potential impairment of this investment.
