|
|
As of March 31, 2018, total assets increased MU.S.$151 compared to December 31, 2017, equivalent to a 1.08% variation. This variation was driven mainly by increases in the balance of trade and other current receivables and othernon-financial assets (roads and payments to amortize current), which were partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents and lower tax receivables.
In turn, total liabilities increased by MU.S.$27 mainly due to an increase innon-financial liabilities (minimum dividend) and current tax liabilities, partially offset by decreases in trade and other current payables.
The main financial and operational indicators as of the dates and periods indicated below are as follows:

2. MAIN SOURCES OF FINANCING
Arauco’s financing needs are mainly covered through the capital markets, with bond issuances and credits obtained from banks and financial institutions serving as the main sources of financing. For short-term borrowing, Arauco follows a liquidity policy which indicates the amounts and institutions from which it can borrow according to several conditions defined in the policy. In the case of long-term debt, corporate bond issuances in the local market and also in international markets are used as sources of new resources. Another source of long-term financing corresponds to borrowings from banks and financial institutions around the world.
3. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ECONOMIC VALUES AND BOOK ASSETS
Assets and liabilities are presented in the Financial Statements according to International Financial Reporting Standards and instructions issued by the Chilean Superintendency of Securities and Insurance (current Chilean Commission for the Financial Market). We believe that there are no material differences between the economic value of our assets and the value reflected in these Financial Statements.
4. MARKET SITUATION
Pulp Division
Pulp sales during the first quarter of 2018 increased by 15.1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, this is mainly due to higher prices. Pulp prices during the quarter increased by 13.3% compared to last quarter, and sales volume increased by 0.7%. During this quarter demand remained stable or rising depending on the market, and the spreads in returns between markets decreased. Worldwide inventories remained at normal levels, a rise of 2 days during the quarter and a rise of 4 days over the same period of 2017.
In Asia, the Chinese New Year period that generally marks the end of the period of high demand has not been noticed, demand was active and prices were stable. This relative stability specially in short fiber, gave time to paper producers to pass the higher costs to their customers with enough success and allowing them to maintain their margins. In long fiber the increases were higher, due to import restrictions on recycled papers. As of January 1, new regulations began to apply: the prohibition of importing unsorted waste paper and a more restrictive level of impurities in the selected grade. This has not only restricted the granting of import permits, it also has created uncertainty in how, how efficient and how accurate customs control is at imports.

Europe experienced a very special situation and that was not seen for several years. A very active demand, paper producers operating at full capacity which allowed them to pass costs to their customers. The most significant increase in long fiber grades was not only due to demand, but also to certain supply restrictions due to the harvest problems experienced by Scandinavian pulp producers, restrictions resulting from a mild winter that does not allow to enter the forest to harvest raw materials, this meant a drop in the supply of over 10%. The constant rise in process of raw materials, pulp prices and chemical products for paper producers, has not given time to paper producers to benefit from the increases in paper prices that they have been able to implement by eroding their margins.
In the Middle East markets prices were stable, but following the same tendencies that the rest of the world. Korea kept the tendency of China, during the first quarter negotiations were completed. In Latin America prices increases were delayed, because many contracts are indexed.
Production during the first quarter increased by 11.6% compared to last quarter. The higher production is explained by less programmed maintenance stoppages during this quarter and because during the fourth quarter of 2017 we had certain production losses in Argentina and the blockade of the Constitución mill by an association of truck owners.
Composite Panel
Composite panelsales increased in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the previous quarter due to higher sales volume, slightly offset by a decrease in prices. Both PBO and MDF, had higher sales volume in our major markets, North and South America. Sales in United States and Canada continued to show stable prices level and an increase in sales volume. Meanwhile in Mexico, sales volume decreased due to difficulties in transferring higher prices of MDF to customers. The new Duraplay plant maintains a constant supply specially in the north of the country.
Brazil started the year in good shape, and we expect good demand despite the new capacity that will enter the market in the second semester. This new capacity will come from three new plants (Asperbras, Floraplac and Placas do Brasil) and from the restart of one plant (Duratex). The market shows higher consumption rates, that were reflected in stable sales but with better price levels. The Argentine market remained stable without any big changes. In Chile, a higher dynamism allowed a growth in sales. The rest of Latin America kept their demand and improved in prices.
Sawn timber
Sawn timber markets showed a positive trend compared to last quarter, increasing prices and sales volume by 4.5% and 0.5% respectively. Demand remained solid, pushing prices even further, especially in China and the rest of Asia, where sawn timber consumption remained strong. Sales in the Middle East remained more stable, and prices continued to rise. Remanufactured sales have not recovered to normal levels for this period of high seasonality in the United States. This market maintains a good level of consumption thanks to the increased activity in the construction industry, however the increased supply from producers in China and Brazil have affected prices.

Plywood
Plywood production and sales volume increased compared to the fourth quarter by 9.5% and 1.1% respectively. Prices increased by 5.5% compared to last quarter. Plywood is experiencing a situation of high demand in markets whose activity in the construction sector is very dynamic. We are optimistic for the next months due to a strong demand for products of higher value, in United States, Europe, Mexico, Chile and Oceania.
5. ANALYSIS OF CASH FLOW
The main components of net cash flow in each period are as follows:
03-31-2018 ThU.S.$ | 03-31-2017 ThU.S.$ | |||||||
Positive (negative) Cash flow | ||||||||

|
|
|
| |||||
Positive (negative) Net cash flow | (95,323 | ) | 14,252 | |||||
|
|
|
|
Cash flow from operating activities shows a lower positive balance of MU.S.$83 for the current period, representing a variation in respect of the previous period (MU.S.$181), resulting mainly from higher payments to accounts payables and the payment to Masisa Chile.
The financing cash flow shows a negative balance of MU.S.$1 for the current period, representing a variation in respect of the previous period (negative balance of MU.S.$47), resulting mainly from higher borrowings net of higher payments.
Regarding the investment cash flow, as of the closing of the current period, it shows a higher negative balance of MU.S.$178 (MU.S.$119 for the 2017 period), mainly due to higher disbursements arising from the payment of the balance held in the investment in panel entity in Brasil and for higher purchases in property, plant and equipment and biological assets in 2018.

8. MARKET RISK ANALYSIS
In respect of the economic risks resulting from interest rate variations, the Company maintains, as of March 31, 2018, a ratio of fixed rate debt to total consolidated debt of approximately 85.5%, which it believes is consistent with industry standards. Regarding variations in prices of pulp and forestry products, the Company does not participate in futures trading as to maintain one of the lowest cost structures in the industry, the risks for price fluctuations are bounded.
The Company and most of its subsidiaries maintain their accounting records and prepare their financial statements in U.S. dollars. Both the accounts receivable and most financial liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars or are covered by an exchange rate swap, as well as most of their revenues. As a result, exposure to changes in the exchange rate has decreased significantly.
In the report to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2018, a detailed analysis of the risks associated with the business of Arauco is available (See Note 23).

Functional and Presentation Currency
Arauco and most of its subsidiaries determined the United States (“U.S.”) Dollar as its functional currency since the majority of its revenues from sales of its products are derived from exports denominated in U.S. Dollars, while their costs of sales are to a large extent related or indexed to the U.S. Dollar.
For the pulp reportable segment, most of the sales are exports denominated in U.S. Dollars and costs are mainly related to plantation costs which are settled in U.S. Dollars.
For the wood products and forestry reportable segments, although total sales include a mix of domestic and exports sales, prices of the products are established in U.S. Dollars, which is also the case for the cost structure of the related raw materials.

In relation to the cost of sales, although labor and services costs are generally billed and paid in local currency, these costs are not as significant as the costs of raw materials, which are driven mainly by global markets and therefore, influenced mostly by the U.S. Dollar.
The presentation currency of the interim consolidated financial statements is the U.S. Dollar. Figures on these interim consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. Dollar (ThU.S.$).
Summary of significant accounting policies
a) | Basis for preparation of interim consolidated financial statements |
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and they represent the explicit and unreserved adoption of IFRS.
The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for biological assets and certain derivative financial instruments which are measured at revalued amounts or fair value at the end of each period as explained in the following significant accounting policies.
b) | Critical accounting estimates and judgments |
The preparation of these financial statements, in accordance with IFRS, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the carrying amounts reported. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are considered to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Management believes that the accounting policies below are the critical judgments that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements.
-Biological Assets
The recovery of forest plantations is based on discounted cash flow models which means that the fair value of biological assets is calculated using cash flows from continuing operations on a discounted basis, based on our sustainable forest management plans and the estimated growth of forests.
These discounted cash flows require estimates in growth, harvest, sales prices and costs; therefore, it is important that management make appropriate estimates of future levels and trends for sales and costs, as well as conduct regular surveys of the forests to establish the volumes of wood available for harvesting and their current growth rates. The main considerations used to measure forest plantations are presented in Note 20, including a sensitivity analysis.

-Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the Group’s holding in the identifiable net assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition. The aforementioned fair value is determined whether based on assessments and/or the discounted future flow method using hypotheses in their determination, such as sales prices and industry indexes, among others. See Note 17.
-Litigation and Contingencies
Arauco and its subsidiaries are subject to certain litigation proceedings. Future impact on Arauco’s financial condition derived from such litigations is estimated by management, in collaboration with its legal advisors. Arauco applies judgment when interpreting the reports of its legal advisors who provide updated estimates of the legal contingencies at each reporting period and/or at each time a modification is determined to be necessary. For a description of current litigations see Note 18.
c) | Consolidation |
The interim consolidated financial statements include all entities over which Arauco has the power to direct the relevant financial and operating activities. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained and up to the date that control ceases.
Specifically, a company controls an investee or subsidiary if, and only if, they have all of the following:
(a) power over the investee, i.e. the investor has existing rights which give it the ability to direct the relevant activities (the activities that significantly affect the investee’s returns)
(b) exposure or rights to variable returns from involvement with the investee; and
(c) the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.
When Arauco holds less than the majority of voting rights in a company in which it participates, it nonetheless has the power over said company - when these voting rights are enough - to grant it in practice the ability to unilaterally direct said company’s relevant activities. Arauco takes into account all facts and circumstances in order to assess if the voting rights in a company in which it participates are enough for granting it the power, including:
a) the size of the investor’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;
b) potential voting rights held by the investor, other vote holders or other parties;
c) rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
d) any additional facts and circumstances that indicate the investor has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.
The Company will reevaluate whether or not it holds control of a company in which participates if the facts and circumstances indicate that changes have occurred in one or more of the three elements of control mentioned above.

Consolidation of an investee shall begin from the date the investor obtains control of the investee and cease when the investor loses control of the investee. An entity includes the income and expenses of an acquired or sold subsidiary in the consolidated financial statements from the date it gains control until the date when the entity ceases to control the subsidiary.
The profit or loss of each component of other comprehensive income is attributed to owners of the parent company and thenon-controlling interest, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent company andnon-controlling interests even if the results of thenon-controlling interest have a deficit balance.
If a subsidiary uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the consolidated financial statements for transactions and other events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to the interim consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries in order to ensure compliance with Arauco’s accounting policies.
All intercompany transactions and unrealized gains and losses from subsidiaries have been fully eliminated from consolidated financial statements andnon-controlling interest is presented in the interim consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.
The interim consolidated financial statements at the end of this period include the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the subsidiaries shown in Note 13.
Certain consolidated subsidiaries have Brazilian Real, Argentine Pesos, Canadian Dollars and Chilean Pesos as their functional currencies. For consolidation purposes, the financial statements of those subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and translated into the presentation currency as indicated in Note 1 (e) (ii).
A parent company will presentnon-controlling interests in the interim consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.
d) | Segments |
Arauco has defined its reportable segments according to its business areas, based on the products and services sold to its customers. This definition is consistent with the management, resource allocation and performance assessment made by key personnel responsible for making relevant decisions related to the Company’s operation. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer who is responsible for making these decisions and it is supported by the Corporate Managing Directors of each segment.
Based on the aforementioned process, the Company has established reportable segments according to the following business units:
• | Pulp |
• | Wood products |
• | Forestry |
Refer to Note 24 for detailed financial information by reportable segment.

e) | Functional currency |
(i) | Functional currency |
All items in the financial statements of Arauco and each of its subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (the functional currency). The interim consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is Arauco’s functional and presentation currency.
(ii) | Translation to the presentation currency of Arauco |
For the purposes of presenting interim consolidated financial statements, assets and liabilities of Arauco’s operations in a functional currency different from Arauco’s are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange rate differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in “Other reserves” within–equity.
(iii) | Foreign Currency Transactions |
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Profit or loss on transactions in currencies other than the functional currency resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation atyear-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognized in the statements of profit or loss, except those which are recorded in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity such as cash flows hedging derivatives.
f) | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents includecash-in-hand, deposits held on demand at banks and other short term highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
g) | Financial Instruments |
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: ‘loans and receivables’ and “derivative financial instruments”. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on the trade date, which require delivery of assets within the same time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
Loans and receivables arenon-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are classified as current assets, except for those with maturities more than 12 months after the reporting period, which are classified asnon-current assets. Loans and receivables include trade and other receivables.

Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment.
Derivative financial instruments are explained in Note 1 h)
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and amounts paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Financial obligations are classified as current liabilities, unless Arauco holds an unconditional right to defer their settlement during at least 12 months after the balance sheet’s date.
The estimate of the fair value of obligations with banks is determined using valuation techniques that include discounted cash flow analyses applying rates of similar loans. Bonds are appraised at market value.
h) | Derivative financial instruments |
(i) Derivative Financial Instruments—The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and zero cost collar contracts. The Company’s policy is to enter into derivatives contracts only for economic hedging purposes and there are no instruments with speculation objectives.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequentlyre-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss unless the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument and complies with hedge accounting requirements of IAS 39, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.
(ii) Embedded derivatives - The Company assesses the existence of embedded derivatives in financial instrument contracts. Derivatives embedded innon-derivative host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the contracts are not measured at FVTPL as a whole. Arauco has determined that no embedded derivatives currently exist.

(iii) Hedge accounting - The Company designates certain hedging instruments as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges.
At the inception of the hedge relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, Arauco documents whether the hedging instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk.
-Fair Value Hedges under IAS 39-Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognized in profit or loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.
-Cash flow hedges under IAS 39 -The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of cash flow hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in profit or loss, and is included in the Finance costs line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same line as the recognized hedged item.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized when the forecasted transaction is ultimately recognized in profit or loss. When a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
i) | Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method.
The cost of finished and in process products includes the cost of raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs and manufacturing overhead expenses.
Initial costs of harvested wood are determined at fair value less cost of sale at the point of harvest.
Biological assets are transferred to inventories when forests are harvested.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

j) | Non-current assets held for sale |
The Group classifies certain property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, investments in associates and disposal groups (groups of assets to be sold together with their directly associated liabilities) asnon-current assets held for sale which as of the date of the statements of financial position are the subject of active sale efforts which are estimated to be highly probable.Non-current assets held for sale are presented separately from the other assets in the balance sheet.
These assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less the costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated or amortized from the time they are classified asnon-current assets held for sale.
k) | Business Combinations |
Arauco applies the acquisition method to account for a business combination. This method requires the identification of the acquirer, determination of the acquisition date, recognition and measurement of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and anynon-controlling interest in the acquiree; and recognition and measurement of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and any contingent liabilities in a business combination are initially measured at fair value at the acquisition date, except:
-deferred tax assets or liabilities, and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes and IAS 19 respectively;
-liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with IFRS 3 at the acquisition date; and
-assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with such standard.
Acquisition-related costs are accounted for as expenses when they are incurred, except for costs to issue debt or equity securities which are recognized in accordance with IAS 32 and IFRS 9.
A parent will presentnon-controlling interests in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.
Changes in the ownership interest of a parent in its subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are treated as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by whichnon-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the parent company. No adjustment is made to the carrying amount of goodwill, neither gains nor losses are recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may initially be measured either at fair value or at the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share ofnon-controlling interests, in the recognized amounts of the acquirer’s identifiable net assets. The choice is made on atransaction-by-transaction basis.
Arauco measures the fair value of the acquired company in the business combination achieved in each stage (“step acquisition”), recognizing the effects of remeasurement of previously held equity in the acquiree in the statements of profit or loss.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is not completed by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, Arauco reports preliminary amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. During the measurement period (no more than one year), these preliminary amounts are retrospectively adjusted, or additional assets or liabilities are recognized to reflect new information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.
Business combinations that are under common control transactions are accounted using as a reference the pooling of interest. Under this method, assets and liabilities related to the transaction carry over the previous carrying values. Any difference between assets and liabilities included in the consolidation and the consideration transferred, is accounted in equity.
l) | Investments in associates and joint arrangements |
Associates are entities over which Arauco exercises significant influence, but not control. 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.
Joint arrangement is defined as an entity over which there is joint control, which exists only when the decisions about strategic of activities, both financial and operational, require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
Investments in joint arrangements are classified as a joint venture or as a joint operation. A joint operation is a joint arrangement in which the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint operators) have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement in which the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e., participants in a joint venture) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost. Their carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the portion corresponding to the statement of profit or loss or to the statement of comprehensive income. Dividends received are recognized by deducting the amount received from the carrying amount of the investment. Arauco’s investment in associates includes goodwill (both net of any accumulated impairment loss).
The investments in joint operations are recognized through consolidation of assets, liabilities and results of operations in relation to Arauco’s ownership percentage.
Investments in associates and joint ventures are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position in the line item “Investments accounted for using equity method”.

If Arauco’s share of losses of an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, Arauco discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. After Arauco’s carrying value in the investee is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that Arauco has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. If the associate or joint venture subsequently reports profits, Arauco resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized.
m) | Intangible assets other than goodwill |
After initial recognition, intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses.
Amortization of an intangible asset with a finite useful life is allocated over the asset’s useful life. Amortization begins when the asset is available for use, i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
(i) | Computer Software |
Computer software licenses are capitalized in terms of the costs incurred to acquire and make them compatible with existing software. These costs are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the software.
(ii) | Water Rights, Easements and Other Rights |
This item includes water rights, easements and other acquired rights recognized at historical cost which have indefinite useful lives as there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which these assets are expected to generate future cash flows. These rights are not amortized, but are tested for impairment at least annually, or when there is any indication that the assets might be impaired.
(iii) | Customers and trade relations with customers |
Correspond to the valuation over the time of the established relationship with customers, from the sale of products and services through its sales team. These relations will materialize in sales orders, which generate revenue and cost of sales. The useful life has been determined to be 15 years.

n) | Goodwill |
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of anynon-controlling interest in the acquired company, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquired company (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and theliabilities assumed. If the total of consideration transferred,non-controlling interest recognized and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly in the statements of profit or loss.
Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment on annual basis.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill in a business combination is allocated as of the acquisition date to the cash generating unit or a group of cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquired company are allocated to those units or group of units.
The goodwill generated on acquisitions of foreign companies, is expressed in the functional currency of such foreign company.
Goodwill recognized for the acquisition of the subsidiary Arauco do Brasil S.A. whose functional currency is the Brazilian Real, is translated into U.S. Dollars at the closing exchange rate.

o) | Property, Plant and Equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. The cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets.
Subsequent costs, such as improvements and replacement of components, are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to Arauco and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized from property, plant and equipment. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Arauco capitalizes borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets as part of the cost of those assets, until the assets are ready for their intended use (See Note 12).
Depreciation is calculated by components using the straight-line method.
The useful lives of the items of property, plant and equipment is estimated according to the expected use of the assets. The residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, annually.
p) | Leases |
Arauco applies IFRIC 4 to assess whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease. Leases of assets in which Arauco substantially holds all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Finance leases are initially recognized at the lower of the fair value at the inception of the lease of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
When assets are leased under a finance lease, the present value of lease payments are recognized as financial accounts receivable. Finance income, which is the difference between the gross receivable and the present value of such amount, is recognized as the interest rate of return.
Leases in which substantially all risks and rewards are not transferred to the lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Arauco evaluates the economic nature of the contracts that grant the right to use certain assets, for the purposes of determining the existence of implied leases. In these cases, the Company separates - at the beginning of the contract, and based on relative reasonable values - payments and considerations associated with the lease, from the rest of the elements incorporated to the contract.

q) | Biological Assets |
IAS 41 requires that biological assets, such as standing trees, are measured at fair value less cost to sell in the statement of financial position. Forestry plantations are accounted for at fair value less costs to sell, based on the presumption that fair values of these assets can be measured reliably.
The measurement of forestry plantations is based on discounted cash flow models whereby the fair value of the biological assets is determined using estimated future cash flows from continuing operations calculated using our sustainable forest management plans and including the estimated growth of the forests. This valuation is performed on the basis of each identifiable farm block and for each type of tree.
The measurement of new forestry plantations made during the current year is made at cost, which corresponds to the fair value at that date. After twelve months, the valuation methodology used is that explained in the preceding paragraph.
Biological assets shown as current assets correspond to those forestry plantations that will be harvested in the short term.
Biological growth and changes in fair value of forestry plantations are recognized in the line item “Other income” in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.
r) | Income taxes and deferred taxes. |
The tax liabilities are recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements based on the determination of taxable income for the year and calculated using the tax rates in force in the countries where Arauco operates.
Deferred income tax is recognized using liability method, on the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated annual accounts. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates contained in laws adopted as of the date of the financial statements and that are expected to be applicable when the related deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
The goodwill arising on business combinations does not give rise to deferred tax.
The deferred tax assets and tax credits are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

s) | Provisions |
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period.
t) | Revenue recognition |
Revenues are recognized when Arauco has satisfied its performance obligations through the transfer of committed goods and services to the customer and it has no right to dispose of the assets, nor effective control of such good or services rendered.
(i) | Revenue recognition from the Sale of Goods |
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when Arauco has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the committed goods, when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, when Arauco does not retain any managerial involvement over the goods sold and when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to Arauco and the costs incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Sales are recognized in terms of the price agreed to in the sales contract, less any volume discounts and estimated product returns at the date of the sale. There is no significant financing component given that receivables from sales are collected within a short period, which is in line with market practices.
The structure for recognizing revenue from export sales is based on the 2010 Incoterms, which are the official rules for the interpretation of commercial terms issued by the International Chamber of Commerce.
The main Incoterms used by Arauco are the following:
“CFR (Cost and freight)”, where the company bears all costs including main transportation, until the products arrives at its port of destination. The risk is transferred to the purchaser once the products have been loaded onto the vessel, in the country of origin.
“CIF (Cost Insurance & Freight)”, where the Company organizes and pays for external freight services and some other expenses. Arauco is no longer responsible for the products once they have been delivered to the ocean carrier company. The point of sale is the delivery of the products to the carrier chartered by the seller.
(ii) | Revenue recognition from Rendering of Services |
Revenue from the rendering of services is recognized as long as the performance obligation have been satisfied and when the outcome of a transaction can be reliably estimated.

Revenue is recognized considering the stage of completion of the transaction at the date of the reporting period, when Arauco has the enforceable right of payment from the rendering of the services.
Arauco mainly provides power supply services which are transacted principally in the spot market of the Sistema Eléctrico Nacional (SEN) (“National Electrical System”). According to current regulations, the prices on that market called “Marginal Costs” are calculated by the Coordinador Eléctrico Nacional (CEN) (“National Electrical Coordinator”) and are generally recognized in the period in which the services are rendered.
Electrical power is generated as aby-product of the pulp and wood process and is a complementary business to it, which is initially supplied to the group’s subsidiaries and any surplus is sold to the SEN.
Arauco provides othernon-core services such as port services and pest control whose revenues are derived from fixed price service contracts are recognized considering the stage of completion of the services rendered at the date of reporting, generally during the period of the service contract on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.
Revenues from reportable segments mentioned in Note 24 are measured in accordance with the policies indicated in the preceding paragraphs.
Revenues from inter-segment sales (which are made at market prices) are eliminated in the interim consolidated financial statements.
u) | Minimum dividend |
Article No. 79 of the Chilean Corporations Law states that, unless otherwise unanimously agreed by the shareholders, corporations must distribute annually at least 30% of net income for the current year as cash dividend to shareholders determined in proportion to their shares or in the proportion established in theby-laws for preferred shares, if any, except where necessary to absorb accumulated losses from prior years.
The General Shareholders’ Meeting of Arauco agreed to distribute annual dividends at 40% of net distributable income, including an interim dividend to be distributed at year end. Dividends payable are recognized as a liability in the financial statements in the period when they are declared and approved by the Arauco’s shareholders or when arises the corresponding present obligation based on existing legislation or distribution policies established by the Shareholders’ Meeting.
The dividends payable provision is registered for 40% of the liquid distributable profit and against a lower equity, based on the yearly resolution of the Shareholders’ Meeting.
Dividends payable are presented in the line item “Other currentnon-financial liabilities” in the consolidated statement of financial position.
v) | Earning per share |
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding the average number of shares in the Company held by a subsidiary, if such circumstance exists. Arauco has not performed any type of transaction with a potential dilutive effect that would cause diluted earnings per share to be different from basic earnings per share.

w) | Impairment |
Non-financial Assets
The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and other long-term assets with finite useful lives are measured whenever there are any circumstances indicating that the assets have to recognize an impairment loss. Among the circumstances to consider as evidence of impairment are significant declines in the assets’ market value, significant adverse changes in the technological environment, obsolescence or physical damages of assets and changes in the manner in which the asset is used or expected to be used). Arauco evaluates at the end of each reporting period whether there is any evidence of the indications above mentioned.
A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount however a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.
For the purposes of assessing impairment losses, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows separately for each cash-generating unit.Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, which had recognized an impairment loss, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period whether there are any circumstances indicating that an impairment loss previously recognized may no longer exists or has decreased.
“Cash-generating units” are the smallest identifiable groups of those cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflow from other assets or groups of assets.
Goodwill
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment or whenever circumstances indicate it. The recoverable amount of an intangible asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
A cash-generating unit, for which goodwill has been allocated, is tested for impairment annually or more frequently when there are circumstances indicating that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to other assets pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss of goodwill is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for impairment testing purposes. The allocation is made between cash-generating units or groups of cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
Financial Assets
At the end of each reporting period, an assessment is performed in order to identify whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets may have been impaired.

An allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on a measurement of expected losses using a simplified approach.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of receivables and the present value of estimated future cash flows. The carrying amount of the receivable is reduced through the use of the allowance. If the impairment loss decreases in later periods, it is reversedeither directly or by adjusting the provision for doubtful accounts, with effect in profit or loss.
x) Employee Benefits
Arauco constitutes labor obligations for severance payable in all circumstances for certain of its employees with at least 5 years of work in the Company, based on the terms of the staff’s collective and individual bargaining agreements.
The related provision is an estimate of the years of service to be recognized as a future labor obligation liability, in accordance with contracts between Arauco and its employees and pursuant to actuarial valuation criteria for this type of liability. This post-employment benefit is considered a defined benefit plan.
The main factors considered for calculating the actuarial value of severance obligation for years of service are employee turnover, salary increases and life expectancy of the workers included in this benefit.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income in the year they are incurred.
These obligations are related to post-employee benefits in accordance with current standards.
y) Employee Vacations
Arauco recognizes the expense for employee vacation according to labor legislation in each country on an accrual basis.
This obligation is presented in the line item “Trade and Other current payables” and “Trade and Othernon-current payables” depending on their respective maturities in the consolidated statements of financial position.

IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments.
IFRS 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard introduced new rules applicable to hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets. The financial assets held by the Group mainly include: Mutual Fund Holdings, (hedge) Derivatives, and highly-liquid financial instruments.
Arauco did not have a significant impact in the classification and measurement of its financial assets (See Note 2).
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The new standard specifies how and when income will be recognized and increases the disclosures. The standard provides a single five-step model based on principles applicable to all contracts with clients.
Arauco is a pulp and wood supplier in the global markets. Arauco’s contracts with clients can be clearly identified on the basis of purchase orders placed by such clients. Performance obligations are regularly explicitly defined as the products are delivered in accordance with the client’s contracts.
The main contracts with clients do not include additional separate performance obligations that change the timing of income recognition in accordance to IFRS 15.
The adoption of the standards, amendments and interpretations described above will not have a significant impact on Arauco’s Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

IFRS 16 - Leases
IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016. The new standard will result in recognizing practically all leases in the balance sheet, because the distinction between operational and financial leases was eliminated. Under the new standard an asset (the right to use the leased property) as well as a financial liability is recognized for lease payments. Short-term andlow-value leases are an exception to this standard. This standard will be in full force and effect as of January 1, 2019.
The group’s main assets are held under financial leases by Arauco and its affiliates, and therefore we do not expect that the new standard will have a significant impact on the financial statements. However, the group has yet to evaluate which other adjustments, if any, would be necessary due to changes in the definition of the term of the lease and the various treatments of variable rent payments and extension and termination options. Therefore, it is not yet possible to estimate the value of the right to use the assets and liabilities under leases that will be recognized upon the implementation of the new standard, or how this could affect the group’s earnings or losses and the classification of future cash flows.
According to the performed evaluations, the adoption of the other standards, amendments and interpretations described above will not have a significant impact on Arauco’s Consolidated Financial Statements during its initial application period.

NOTE 2. ACCOUTING POLICIES, CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Changes to accounting policies
As from January 1, 2018, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers came into force, which have not materially impacted the Group’s Financial Statements based on Arauco’s assessment to date.
With regard to IFRS 9, we hereby inform the following:
- Classification and measurement
Arauco’s Financial Instruments were reviewed under the new IFRS 9 classification model. No significant changes were derived therefrom.
This assessment takes into consideration Arauco’s business model to manage its financial assets and liabilities, and whether or not its cash flows are composed only of payment of principal and interest.
- Impairment of Commercial Debtors and other Accounts Receivable
Arauco adopted the expected credit losses model under IFRS 9, which replaces the incurred loss model under IAS 39. In this new impairment model for accounts receivable, we used the simplified model, determining the risk rate based on historical information.
This assessment has determined that, to date, the current impairment provision reasonably hedges the impairment risk of the balances of Arauco’s accounts receivable portfolio.
-Hedging Derivatives
Arauco’s hedging derivatives were assessed under the new standard and fulfill all of the conditions set out in IFRS 9 to remain being accounted for as hedging.
Those conditions are the following: (i) that there is a unique relation between the hedging instrument and the hedged item; (ii) that there is an appointment and formal documentation regarding the hedging relation, the objective and risk management strategy to deploy the hedging; (iii) and that it complies with all of the efficiency requirements, that is, that there is an economic relation, the credit risk effect does not predominate over the changes of value that stem from this economic relation and the hedge ratio is the same as the amount of the covered item.
Regarding the inclusion of credit risk in the appraisal of Arauco’s hedging derivatives, as of March 31, 2018, the impact results in an inferior cash flow hedging Reserve, amounting to ThU.S.$ 7,880.
Regarding IFRS 15, we report the following:
IAS 18 “Income from ordinary activities” and all associated interpretations were replaced with the coming into force of IFRS 15. Arauco applied IFRS 15 to all its contracts with clients, with the exception of those contracts that fall within the scope of other provisions.
The application of this new provision does not lead to identifying performance obligations in addition to the main one (sale of assets and services), income is acknowledged in relation to the price set in the sales contract, net from volume-related discounts, after Arauco satisfies its performance obligations through the transfer of goods and services committed to the client, and Arauco has no right to dispose of the goods, nor does it

have effective control of those products. Volume-related discounts lead to a variable consideration, which is estimated in relation to the actual sales volume and it is assessed considering the annual forecasted sales.
Changes to accounting estimates
As of March 31, 2018, there have been no changes regarding the accounting estimates for the 2017 financial year.

Inventories recognized as cost of sales at March 31, 2018 were ThU.S.$904,543 (ThU.S.$854,573 at March 31, 2017).
In order to have the inventories recorded at net realizable value at March 31, 2018, a net decrease of inventories was recognized associated with a higher provision of obsolescence of ThU.S.$2,689 (ThU.S.$3,197 at March 31, 2017). As of March 31, 2018, the amount of obsolescence provision is ThU.S.$28,684 (ThU.S.$27,420 at December 31, 2016).
At March 31, 2018, there were inventory write-offs of ThU.S.$178 (ThU.S.$123 at March 31, 2017).
The inventory obsolescence provision is calculated based on the sales conditions of products and age of inventory (inventory turnover).
As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, there are no inventories pledged as security to report.
Agricultural Products
Agricultural Products are mainly forestry products that are intended for sale in the normal course of our operations and are measured at fair value less costs to sell at the point of harvest at the end of each reporting period Agricultural products are classified as raw materials within the line item inventories.

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES AND DEFERRED TAXES
The tax rates applicable in the countries in which Arauco operates are 27% in Chile, 30% in Argentina, 34% in Brazil, 25% in Uruguay and 21% in the United States (federal tax).
On September 29, 2014, the Official Gazette enacted Law No. 20,780, which introduced various amendments to the current income tax system, as well as to other taxes in Chile. The main amendment was the establishment of an option between two tax regimes: attributed income system and the partially integrated system. One of the effects of the regime selection is that it attaches a progressive increase in the First Category Tax for the fiscal years of 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 onwards, increasing to 21%, 22,5%, 24% y 25%, respectively, if the Company chooses the application of an attributed income system, or an increase to 21%, 22.5%, 24%, 25.5% y 27% for the fiscal years 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and thereafter, if the Company chooses the application of the partially integrated system.
Subsequently, on February 28, 2016, the Official Gazette enacted Law No. 20,899, which introduced amendments to Law No. 20,780. Among the main amendments is the incorporation of certain limitations for applying to the attributed income system, and therefore Arauco’s Chilean companies must apply the general rule, that is, the partially integrated system.
On December 22, 2017, a new law was enacted in the United States that amended several articles of the Income Tax Act. The most relevant amendments of this law include the reduction of the income tax rate, from 35% as to 21% by 2018 fiscal year. This amendment generated a benefit of ThU.S.$ 17,600 for Arauco’s subsidiaries in that country as of December 31, 2017, as a result of the reduction of the net deferred liabilities generated by the reduction of the federal income tax rate.
On December 29, 2017, Law No. 27,430 was enacted in the Official Gazette of Argentina, which amended several articles of the Income Tax Act. The most relevant amendments include the reduction of the federal income tax rate from 35% to 30% by 2018 and 2019 fiscal years, and 25% by 2020. This amendment generated a benefit of ThU.S$ 62,677 for Arauco’s subsidiaries in that country as of December 31, 2017, as a result of the reduction of the net deferred liabilities generated by the reduction of the federal income tax rate.

Certain subsidiaries of Arauco mainly in Chile, Brazil and Uruguay, as of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, present tax losses for which we estimate that, given the projection of future profits, will allow the recovery of these assets. The total amount of these tax losses is ThU.S.$251,625 (ThU.S.$216,397 at December 31, 2017), which are mainly originated by operational and financial losses.
In addition, as of the closing of these interim consolidated financial statements there are ThU.S.$156,118 (ThU.S.$ 167,862 at December 31, 2017) ofnon-recoverable tax losses from companies in Uruguay as joint operations based on the participation of Arauco and subsidiaries in USA, for which deferred tax assets have not been recognized. The estimated recovery period exceeds the expiry date of such tax losses.

Goodwill
Goodwill is allocated to the groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
At the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, the balance of goodwill is ThU.S.$69,731 (ThU.S.$69,922 at December 31, 2017), as shown below:
Goodwill | 03-31-2018 ThU.S.$ | 12-31-2017 ThU.S.$ | ||||||

Closing balance at December 31 | 69,731 | 69,922 | ||||||
|
|
|
|
Of the total of goodwill, ThU.S.$39,780 (ThU.S.$39,841 as of December 31, 2017) are generated by the acquisition of “Flakeboard”, a company that, directly and/or through its subsidiaries, possesses and operates 7 panel plants, for which Arauco acquired and paid, on September 24, 2012, the price of ThU.S.$242,502 for the 100% interest ownership.
The recoverable amount for Flakeboard’s cash generating unit was determined based on the calculations of its value in use, and this calculation was made using cash flow projections covering a5-year term, applying a real discount rate of 6.7% which reflects current market assessments for the wood products segment in North America.
The investment in the panel plant in Pien, Brazil generated a goodwill of ThU.S.$27,137 (ThU.S.$27,266 as of December 31, 2017).
The recoverable amount for the Pien plant’s cash generating unit was determined based on the calculations of its value in use, and this calculation was made using cash flow projections based on the operational plan approved by the Administration, covering a5-year term, applying a 7% real discount rate that reflects current evaluations for the panel segment in Brazil.
As a result of the annual impairment test at December 31, 2017, the carrying value of the goodwill of the plants exceeded their recoverable value, and therefore impairment losses of ThU.S.$4,640 were recognized. As of March 31, 2018, the carrying value of the goodwill of the plants did not exceed their recoverable value, and therefore there was no need to recognize impairment losses.
As of March 31, 2017, the variation of the balance in goodwill was only due to translation adjustments of functional currency.

NOTE 18. PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The contingent liabilities for outstanding litigations are as follows:
Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A.
1.On August 25, 2005, the Chilean Servicio de Impuestos Internos (the “Chilean IRS”) issued tax resolutions No. 184 and No. 185 of 2005, and objected certain income tax returns made by Arauco on April 16, 2001 and October 31, 2001, and furthermore, requested the reimbursement of the amounts returned in connection to tax losses, along with the amendment of the FUT (Tax Profits Fund) Registry balance. In consideration to the foregoing, the above mentioned tax resolutions ordered the restitution of the historical amount of $4,571,664,617 (equal to ThU.S.$7,577 as of March 31, 2018). On November 7, 2005, the Company requested a Review of the Supervision Action (Revisión de la Actuación Fiscalizadora, or “RAF”), which is an administrative review of the tax action brought by the Chilean IRS, and filed a claim disputing the above mentioned tax resolutions No. 184 and 185 of 2005. The RAF was resolved on January 9, 2009 by the Chilean IRS, partially sustaining the Company’s request, granting a discount to the total amount of $1,209,399,164 (equal to ThU.S.$2,004, as of March 31, 2018), resulting in a total disputed amount of $3,362,265,453 (equal to ThU.S.$5,572 as of March 31, 2018) plus fines and interests. On this date, the claim corresponding to the sums not granted during the enforcement stage was filed. On February 19, 2010, the Court acknowledged receipt of the Company’s request. Subsequently, the tax authority issued a report and the Company commented on such report.
On September 26, 2014, Arauco requested the submission of this claim to the competent jurisdiction of the new Tax and Customs Courts. On October 10, 2014, Arauco’s request was granted. Currently the action is being considered by these new Courts under the Docket No. RUC14-9-0002087-3. On March 20, 2015, the SII responded to the allegations submitted by Arauco against Liquidations No. 184 and 185 of 2005. On June 19, 2017, the Court issued the evidence production ruling, which resolution was notified via certified letter on July 23 of 2017. Arauco lodged a motion for reconsideration and a supplementary appeal, requesting the terms of the evidence production ruling be modified. On July 7, 2017, the Court upheld the motion for reconsideration. On September 20, 2017, the Court issued its first instance decision confirming the liquidations. On October 12, 2017, Arauco challenged the decision through an appeal, requesting the Court of Appeals of Santiago to revoke the first instance decision and uphold Arauco’s claim instead. The case is pending.
Considering that the Company’s position is based on solid legal grounds, there is a reasonable margin for obtaining a favorable result for the Company and therefore as of March 31, 2018, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection to this contingency.
2. In connection with Licancel Plant, on June 22, 2011, the Company was notified of a civil claim for compensation of prejudice for an alleged tort liability, filed by twelve fishermen of the Mataquito River before the Court of First Instance, Guarantee and Family of Licantén under Docket number73-2011. The case arose out of dead fish allegedly found in the Mataquito River on June 5, 2007 caused by the Licancel Plant. The plaintiffs seek to be compensated for alleged damages that they had from the aforementioned event, including loss of profits, pain and suffering and an alleged contractual liability, for a total of $2,695,560,000 (equal to ThU.S.$4,467 as of March 31, 2018).

On October 21, 2015, the Court issued a definitive first instance decision partially admitting the claim, sentencing Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A. to pay each claimant – asnon-monetary damages – the sum of $5,000,000 (equal to ThU.S.$8, as of March 31, 2018) plus adjustments, in accordance with the variation of the Consumer Price Index, calculated as of the month of May 2007, up to the month when the payment is made. On November 16, 2015, the defendant challenged the definitive decision through the submission of a cassation appeal based on formal aspects and an ordinary appeal. In turn, the plaintiff adhered to the appeal, seeking to have the amount of thenon-monetary damages recognized by the first instance decision increased. On June 27, 2017, the Court of Appeals of Talca confirmed the ruling, additionally declaring that it increased the amount awarded asnon-monetary damages to $10,000,000 (equal to ThU.S.$16 as of March 31, 2018) for each claimant, plus Consumer Price Index-based adjustments, calculated from the date of the first instance ruling (October 21, 2015) up to the date of effective payment. On July 12, 2017, Arauco filed a cassation appeal based on both procedural and substantial flaws. On October 5, 2017, Arauco became a party to the Appeal.
On December 20, 2017 the parties reached a complete agreement, thus putting an end to the trial through a settlement, with Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., paying—without recognizing any liability in connection with the events—an amount lower than ninety million pesos, with the plaintiffs, in turn, abandoning the cassation appeals that they had lodged. On December 28, 2017, the Supreme Corte issued a ruling declaring the waiver of both remedies. Proceedings Terminated.
3. Through Res. Ex. N° 1 issued by the Superintendence of the Environment (“SMA”) on January 8, 2016, notified on January 14, 2016, the SMA formulated 11 charges against the Company, due to alleged breaches of certain Environmental Qualification Resolutions for the Valdivia Plant and of DS No. 90/2000. The 11 charges were classified as follows by the SMA: 1 critical, 5 severe, 5 minor.
On February 12, 2016, the Company submitted its defenses.
On December 15, 2017, the Superintendence of the Environment issued Exempted Resolution No. 1,487, closing the punitive administrative proceeding, absolving the company with regards to one of the charges and convicting for other 10 charges, applying a fine of 7,777 UTA (equal to ThU.S.$ 7,316 as of March 31, 2018). On December 22, 2017, the Company submitted a motion for reconsideration regarding Exempted Resolution No. 1,487, before the SMA, requesting that we be absolved of all infringements, with the exception of the charge specified under number 7 (late submission of the water quality report regarding the Cruces river).
Exempted Resolution No. 357, issued by the Superintendence of the Environment (SMA) was notified on March 23, 2018, through which the reconsideration appeal lodged by the company was rejected. In consideration to the foregoing, on April 5, 2018, a judicial claim was submitted before the Third Environmental Court against Exempted Resolutions No. 1487 and No. 357 of the SMA. The complaint was declared admissible and an official letter was sent to the SMA for it to issue a report. Proceedings Pending (case File:R-64-2018, Third Environmental Court).
Considering that the Company’s position is based on solid legal grounds, there is a reasonable margin for obtaining a favorable result for the Company, and therefore as of March 31, 2018, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection to this contingency.

4. Through Res. Ex. N° 1 of the SMA, dated February 17, 2016 notified on February 23, 2016, the SMA formulated 8 charges against the company due to alleged breaches of certain Environmental Qualification Resolutions for the Nueva Aldea Plant.

On March 15, 2016, the company submitted—within the established term—a compliance program which contains 30 actions and goals, related to each one of the 8 alleged infringements. On July 15, 2016, the Exempted Resolution No. 11 of the SMA was notified, which approved the compliance program and suspended the punitive proceedings. If the program is satisfactorily implemented, it would be possible to conclude the proceedings without applying any sanctions.
On October 31, 2017, a final report was submitted regarding the Compliance Program, which evidenced the complete and comprehensive performance of all actions and measures envisaged in said program. The SMA must issue its opinion regarding the satisfactory performance of the Compliance Program.
5. Through Exempted Resolution No. 1/FileF-020-2016, dated May 6, 2016, the SMA formulated four charges against the company due to certain alleged breaches of the Environmental Qualification Resolutions of the Licancel Plant. The SMA classified the four charges as follows: 1 severe and 3 minor.
On February 1, 2017, the Environment Superintendent issued Exempted Resolution No. 71, imposing a fine against the Company for the amount of 239 Annual Tax Units (UTA) (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 225, as of March 31, 2018).
On February 13, 2017, the Company filed a motion for reconsideration, requesting the annulment of the fine or substantially decreasing it.
On August 7, 2017, a ruling was issued to resolve the reconsideration appeal, partially upholding the Company’s request, thus reducing the portion of the fine that corresponds to this charge, from 234 UTA to 177 UTA (equivalent to ThU.S.$166, as of March 31, 2018).
The 25% reduction benefit was granted as a result of paying within the first 5 business days, and the total sum amounted to 136.5 UTA (equivalent to ThU.S.$128 as of March 31, 2018). Case closed.
6. Through Exempted Resolution No. 1/FileF-031-2016, dated September 15, 2016, the SMA formulated three charges against the company due to certain alleged breaches of certain Environmental Qualification Resolutions of the Constitución Plant, and an alleged contravention of Law No. 19,300 resulting from a purported circumvention of the Environmental Assessment System. The SMA classified the three charges as follows: 1 severe and 2 minor.
On October 17, 2016, the company filed a Compliance Program containing 7 actions and objectives. On January 3, 2017, the SMA served its resolution approving the compliance program submitted by the Company. If the compliance program is executed satisfactorily, the proceedings would conclude without the application of any sanctions.
The final report regarding the Compliance Program was submitted on October 2, 2017, and further supplemented on December 11, 2017, evidencing the complete and comprehensive performance of all the actions and measures envisaged in said program.

Arauco Argentina S.A.
1. Pursuant to law No. 25,080, the former Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Fishing and Foodstuffs, the enforcement agency referred to in the law approved, by Res. No. 952/2000, the forestry and industrial-forestry projects submitted by Arauco Argentina S.A. In the context of these projects, the Company afforested: 1) 4,777 hectares during 2000, in observance of its committed yearly plan; and 2) 23,012 hectares between 2000 and 2006 as a part of the multi-year afforestation plan. Likewise, a sawmill was built with installed capacity to produce 250,000 m3 of sawn timber per year.
On January 11, 2001, Arauco Argentina S.A. submitted an expansion for the approved industrial-forestry project. The expansion was approved via Res. No. 84/03 issued by the former Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Fishing and Foodstuffs. In accordance with the assumed obligations, the Company built a MDF board (panels) plant and afforested 8,089 hectares between 2001 and 2006.
Additionally, the Company filed yearly forestry plans between years 2007 and 2015 for its local operations in the Provinces of Misiones and Buenos Aires.
In March, 2005, Note No. 145/05 of the Undersecretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Afforestation suspended the benefit that exempted Arauco Argentina S.A. from paying export duties under Law No. 25,080. This measure is currently under discussion by the Company. On November 8, 2006, the V Chamber of the National Appeals Court for Adversarial Administrative and Federal Matters issued a ruling ordering Arauco Argentina S.A. to continue to enjoy an exemption from paying the exportation duties, in the same manner and scope it had prior to the suspension ordered by Note No. 145/05, if the clearance of merchandise is performed pursuant to the guarantee regime established in article 453, subsection a) of the Customs Code, for the exempted tax obligation. The judicial measure became effective beginning on March of 2007 by collateralization through the granting of bond (caución) policies for each shipment permits exempted from payment of export duty. The company maintains an assignment of funds equivalent to $437,310,690 Argentine Pesos (ThU.S.$ 23,440 as of March 31, 2018) for guaranteed export duties, which appears under not current provisions. Additionally, the Company filed a restitution claim for a total amount of US$6,555,207, plus interests accrued from the service of the claim, corresponding to export duties between March 2005 and March 2007, as a result of the application of Note 145/05 issued by the Undersecretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Afforestation. Both the underlying issue and the restitution claim have yet to be resolved.
On the other hand, in April 2016, the Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Fishing issued Resolution No.154 – E/2016, that requires that the holders of enterprises that have received the fiscal benefits envisaged by Law No. 25,080, establish collateral to cover a third of the duration of the project, with a minimum term of five years. During May of 2017, the Company modified the duly established collateral in accordance to the terms of said Resolution, for which reason the security was ultimately established at an amount of $276,508,024 (ThU.S.$13,723 as of March 31, 2018).
Arauco Argentina S.A. believes that it has complied with all of the obligations imposed upon it by the system set forth under Law No. 25,080.

Arauco do Brasil S.A.
On November 8, 2012, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an Infringement Notice against one of our Brazilian subsidiaries, Arauco do Brasil S.A., for allegedly unpaid taxed owed by said company during the period from 2006 to 2010. Specifically, the tax authorities (i) objected to the deductibility of certain payments made, and expenses incurred (including the amortization of premiums, interest and litigation costs) by Arauco do Brasil between 2005 and 2010, and, (ii) argued that Arauco do Brasil made certain insufficient payments regarding the Brazilian Corporate Tax (“IRPJ”) and the Corporate Contribution over Net Profits (“CSLL”) during 2010.
On July 20, 2015, Arauco do Brasil was notified of the first-level administrative ruling which partially upheld the Infringement, at the estimated amount of R$164,159,000 (ThU.S.$49,665 as of March 31, 2018). Against this ruling, a Voluntary Appeal was filed seeking to revoke the Infringement Notice before the Brazilian Administrative Tax Council (Conselho Administrativo de Recursos Fiscais de Brasil or “CARF”), which is the second administrative level. The CARF’s decision was issued on May 16, 2017, and took into consideration certain arguments presented by the Company regarding the agios, but preserving other charges. Administratively, it is possible that the parties can file a Special Remedy. If the current scenario remains in place, it is estimated that the claim will amount to R$57,278,771 (ThU.S.$17,329 as of March 31, 2018), plus correction increments.
The company believes that its challenge against the Infringement Notice is based on sound legal grounds and that a reasonable possibility exists that this matter will be resolved in favor of the company. Otherwise, as the next step, the Company will discuss the Infringement Notice before the Brazilian Justice Courts.
Forestal Arauco S.A.
1. Maquinarias y Equipos Klenner Limitada filed a civil damages claim before the First Civil Court of Valdivia, Case File numberC-375-2015, against Forestal Arauco S.A. The claim seeks compensation for alleged damages brought as a result of the termination of a service provision contract that took place on February 9, 2010. The plaintiff valued the damages in the amount of $4,203,216,164 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 6,966, as of March 31, 2018).
On November 14, 2016, the lower court issued a ruling partially upholding the claim, convicting Forestal Arauco S.A. to pay the sum of $115,026,673 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 191 as of March 31, 2018) as general damage, and the sum of $607,849,413 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 1,007 as of March 31, 2018) for loss profit, rejecting the claim for alleged moral damage, all without ordering the payment of litigation expenses.
Forestal Arauco S.A. challenged the ruling filing a cassation remedy based on procedural violations as well as an appeal. The plaintiff also challenged the ruling through an appeal. On August 14, 2017, the Court of Appeals decided to only uphold the appeal filed by Forestal Arauco S.A., dismissing the claim in its entirety.
On September 1, 2017, the plaintiff challenged the decision rendered by the Court of Appeals, filing a formal cassation appeal and a cassation appeal on the merits before the Supreme Court. Proceedings pending.
Considering that the Company’s position is based on solid legal grounds, there is a reasonable margin for obtaining a favorable result for the Company and therefore, as of March 31, 2018, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection to this contingency.

3. On April 6, 2015, the company was notified through a rogatory letter regarding the claim submitted by Mr. Gustavo Andrés Ochagavía Urrutia, attorney at law, acting on behalf of 23 members of the Arcos succession, who claim to be the owners of the estate that they identify as Hacienda Quivolgo, of 5,202 hectares, requesting that Forestal Celco S.A., currently Forestal Arauco S.A., be ordered to return the above mentioned real property plus civil and natural fruits or revenues as well as any estates adhered to it, along with any damages that the real property may have suffered, with litigation costs.

On April 28, 2014, the company proceeded to answer the claim requesting that it be completely rejected, arguing that Forestal Celco S.A., currently Forestal Arauco S.A., is the sole and legitimate owner of the real property.
On January 8, 2016, the defendant requested a consolidation of the proceedings with Case file334-2014, as well as the suspension of the proceedings until this request is decided upon.

4. On August 24, 2017, the company was notified of a civil claim for recovery in ordinary proceedings, filed by Mrs. Carmen Muñoz Domínguez on behalf of Forestal Ezrece S.A. The plaintiff argues that its client would be the rightful owner – as a result of an assignment and sale – of 87.5% of the hereditary rights in the rural real estate property called “Pino Huacho,” located in the boroughs of Los Alamos and of Cañete, province of Lebu, Eighth Region, for a surface area amounting to 5,144.22 hectares, which actions would be under the possession of Forestal Arauco S.A. The claimant has requested the court to order Forestal Arauco S.A. to be sentenced to restitute these actions and rights. Forestal Arauco S.A. answered the claim, requesting its total dismissal, with litigation costs, and further filing a counterclaim based on the ordinary prescription and, in lieu thereof, based on extraordinary prescription.
Having exhausted the period of discussion both for the main action as well as for the counterclaim, the Court issued the corresponding evidence production resolution. Forestal Arauco S.A. lodged a reconsideration remedy with a subsidiary appeal. The Court partially upheld the reconsideration and denied the subsidiary appeal. Forestal Arauco S.A. lodged an appeal for the review of facts, dated April 11, which was upheld by the Court of Appeals of Concepcion, ordering the Court to grant the processing of the appeal. Proceedings currently at the evidence production stage. Pending. (Case FileC-109-2017 First Instance and Guarantee Court of Lebu).
Considering that the Company’s position is based on solid legal grounds, there is a reasonable margin for obtaining a favorable result for the Company and therefore, as of March 31, 2018, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection to this contingency.
At the closing date, there are no other contingencies in which the Companies act as obligor, that may significantly affect their financial, economic or operational conditions.

NOTE 20. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS
Biological assets comprise forestry plantations, mainly radiata and taeda pine, and to a lesser extent eucalyptus. The plantations are located in Chile, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, with a total surface of 1.7 million hectares as of March 31, 2018 out of which 1 million hectares are used for forestry planting, 431 thousand hectares are native forest, 196 thousand hectares are used for other purposes and 109 thousand hectares not yet planted.
For the period ended March 31, 2018, the production volume of logs totaled 5.1 million m3 (4.7 million m3 as of March 31, 2017).
Measurements of fair value of Arauco’s biological assets are classified as Level 3, due to the fact that inputs are not observable. However, this information reflects the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset, including assumptions about risk.
These unobservable inputs were developed using the best information available and includes internal data from Arauco. These unobservable inputs can be adjusted if the available information indicates that other market participants would use different information or there is something specific in Arauco that is not available to other market participants.
The main considerations in determining the fair value of biological assets include the following:
• | Arauco uses discounted expected future cash flows of its forest plantations, which are based on a harvest projection date for all existing plantations. |
• | Current forestry plantations are projected based on a net volume that will not decrease, with a minimum growth equivalent to the current supply demand. |
• | Future plantations are not considered. |
• | The harvest of forestry plantations supplies raw materials for all other products that Arauco produces and trades. By directly controlling the development of forests that will be processed, Arauco ensures high quality timber for each of its products. |
• | Expected cash flows are determined in terms of harvest and expected sale of forestry products, associated with the demand from the Company’s own industrial centers and sales to third parties at market prices. Sales margin of the different products that are harvested in the forest is also considered in the valuation. The changes in the value of the plantations pursuant to the criteria defined above are accounted for in the results for the fiscal year, as established in IAS 41. These changes are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss under the line item Other income per function, which as of March 31, 2018 amounted to ThU.S.$29,575 (ThU.S.$ 43,257 as of March 31, 2017). The appraisal of biological assets resulted in a greater cost of the lumber sold in comparison to the real incurred cost, which is presented included in the cost of sales which as of March 31, 2018 amounted to ThU.S.$54,768 (ThU.S.$40,842 as of March 31, 2017). |
• | Forestry plantations are harvested according to the needs of Arauco’s production plants. |
• | The discount rates used are 7.5% in Chile, 8% Brazil and Uruguay, and 12% in Argentina. |

The adjustment to fair value of biological assets is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss, under the line item Other Income or Other Expenses, depending on whether it corresponds to profits or losses.
Forestry plantations classified as current Biological assets are those to be harvested and sold within twelve months after the reporting period.
The Company has contracted fire insurance policies for its forestry plantatios, which in conjunction with the Company’s resources, allow risks to be minimized.
Detail of Biological Assets Pledged as Security

(*) | On May 2017, Arauco’s associate Vale do Corisco S.A. performed a return of capital to its shareholders. This operation did not generate effects in the Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss nor modified Arauco’s shareholding in Florestal Vale do Corisco S.A. |
In January 2017, Arauco was affected by fires that consumed 72,564 hectares of forest plantations, recorded in the balance sheet in MU.S.$ 210, representing 5.6% of the value of Arauco’s forestry plantations.
The affected plantations have been managed by the company in order to minimize the damage caused by the fires. This management has allowed for the recovery of 17.6% of the afore mentioned amount of MU.S.$210. Additionally, the forest plantations affected by the fires were insured, with their corresponding deductibles and limitations. As a consequence of the above, the sum recovered from the insurance company amounted to MU.S$ 35.
As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, there are no committed disbursements related to the acquisition of biological assets.

NOTE 21. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Environment Management
For Arauco, sustainability means management strategy. This strategy incorporates values, commitments and standards, that together with the adoption of best practices as well as the use of the latest available technologies, seek to continuously improve the Company’s environmental management. It is the environmental department and each of its specialists that ensure these guidelines are met and are put in to practice in everyday company operations.
All of Arauco’s production units have certified environmental management systems, which reinforce the Company’s commitment to environmental performance and ensure the traceability of all raw materials used.
Arauco uses several supplies in its productive processes such as wood, chemical products, and water, etc., which in turn produce liquid and gas emissions. As a way to make the Company’s environmental management more efficient, significant progress has been made to reduce consumption and emissions.
Environmental investments have been made related to the control of atmospheric emissions, process improvements, water and waste management, as well as effluent treatment, in order to improve the environmental performance of all of Arauco’s business units.
These investments are reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements as Properties, Plants and Equipment when they refer to disbursements in major works executed and are reflected in Expenses when they refer to improvements or management not directly associated with investment projects.
Detail information of disbursements related to the environment
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 Arauco has made and / or has committed the following disbursements by major environmental projects:

23.2 Fair Value Hierarchy of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position as of March 31, 2018, have been measured based on the valuation methodologies provided in IAS 39. The methodologies applied for each financial instrument are classified according to their hierarchy as follows:
• | Level 1: Securities or quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities |
• | Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and |
• | Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |

23.3 Explanation of the valuation of Financial Instruments.
Cash and cash equivalent and accounts receivable
The carrying amount of accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents (including mutual funds), and other financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.
Derivative financial instruments
Interest rate and currency swaps are valued under the cash flow discount method at the rate applicable according to the transaction’s risk and from counterparties, using an internal methodology based on the information obtained from Bloomberg. In this particular case, given that cross currency swaps correspond to future flows in U.F and future flows in Dollars, Arauco calculates the current value of such flows by using 2 discount curves: the U.F zero coupon curve and the Dollar zero coupon.
The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts is calculated by reference to the rate differential between the agreed upon rate and the market rate as of the end date of these financial statements.

The fair value of the currency forward contracts is calculated by reference to the current forward exchange rates of contracts with similar maturity profiles.
The counterparty risk, for the 3 cases, uses theZ-Spread obtained from the curve of the bonds issued by the counterparties, and each flow is discounted accordingly.
Financial Liabilities
The fair value of bonds issued was determined with reference to quoted market prices as they have standard terms and conditions.
The fair value of bank borrowings was determined based on discounted cash flow analysis, applying the corresponding discount yield curves to the remaining term to maturity.
Disclosures of the fair value of financial liabilities at amortized cost are determined via the use of discounted cash flows, calculated over variables of the observable markets as of the date of informing the consolidated financial statements, and correspond to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table shows the compliance with the financial covenants (level of indebtedness, detailed in section 23.9.3), for the bonds issued prior to the year 2015, as required by domestic indentures (Chile):

Arauco needs to minimize the risk of the exchange rate, as it holds debt in pesos, adjustable to reflect inflation. The objective of this position in the swap is to eliminate the uncertainty of the exchange rate, exchanging the flows derived from obligations expressed in adjustable pesos of the bonds described above, with flows in U.S. dollars (Arauco’s functional currency), at a fixed and determined exchange rate as of the agreement’s execution date.
Through an effectiveness test, and pursuant to IAS 39, we were able to validate that the aforementioned hedging instruments are highly effective within an acceptable range for Arauco, for the purposes of eliminating the uncertainty of the exchange rate in the commitments derived from the hedged object.

Explanation regarding the Sales Risk with Letters of Credit
The sales with letters of credit mainly occur in markets in Asia and the Middle East. Periodically, a credit assessment is conducted regarding the banks that issue the letters of credit with the purpose of obtaining their score over the basis of risk-qualification ratings, country-specific risk and financial statements. The decision of approving the issuing bank or asking for confirmation of the letter of credit is made in consideration to this assessment.

Explanation of the Sales Risk with Credit Line
Sales on credit are subject to the credit limit for each customer. The approval or rejection of a credit limit for all term sales is conducted by the Corporate CreditSub-Division, as well as by the Credit and Collections area for North America, Brazil and Argentina, which report to the Corporate Finance Division. The regulations and procedures applicable for the correct control and risk management over the sales on credit are ruled by the Credit Policy.
A procedure that must be applied by all the companies of the Arauco group has been established for the approval and/or modification of client credit lines. Credit line requests are entered to the SAP that analyzes all available information. Afterwards, the same are either approved or rejected in each one of the internal committees of each company belonging to the Arauco group, depending on the maximum amount authorized by the Credit Policy. Lines of credit are renewed during this internal process on a yearly basis.
All sales are automatically controlled by a credit verification system, which has been configured to block any orders from clients who are delinquent in a given percentage of a debt and/or from clients whose line of credit, as of the time of the product’s shipping, has been exceeded or is overdue.
In order to minimize the credit risk for term or Open Account sales, it is Arauco’s policy to take out insurance to cover the export sales of companies Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A., Forestal Arauco S.A., and Arauco do Brasil S.A., as well as the domestic sales of Arauco México S.A. de C.V., Arauco Wood Inc, Arauco Colombia S.A., Arauco Perú S.A., Arauco Panels USA LLC, Flakeboard Company Ltd., Flakeboard America Ltd., Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A., Arauco Florestal Arapoti, Arauco Forest Brasil S.A. and Arauco do Brasil S.A. Arauco works with credit insurance company Continental(AA- rating, as per risk rating companies Humphreys and Fitch Ratings). In order to cover the export sales and domestic sales of Arauco Argentina S.A., the preferred credit insurance company is Insur (a subsidiary of Continental in Argentina). Both companies grant a 90% coverage over the amount of each invoice, without deductibles, for registered clients and of 85% fornon-registered clients.(Non-registered clients are those whose lines range between ThU.S.$ 5 and ThU.S.$ 70 (equivalent currency of their invoicing) of the local sales of companies Arauco Perú S.A., Arauco Colombia S.A., Arauco México S.A. de C.V., Arauco Do Brasil S.A., Arauco Argentina S.A. and Maderas Arauco S.A. Lines in excess of the aforesaid amounts correspond to registered clients.

As another way of minimizing risk and supporting a line of credit approved by the Credit Committee, Arauco holds guarantees such as mortgages, pledges, Standby letters of credit, bank performance bonds, checks, promissory notes, loans or any other that could be required under the laws of each country. The total amount held in guarantees amounts to MU.S.$70.3 effective as of March 2018, as summarized in the following chart. The procedure for guarantees is regulated by Arauco’s Policy on Guarantees, whose purpose is to control their accounting, due date and custody.

The maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the value at amortized cost of the Debtors’ account for sales registered as of the date of this report, minus the percentage of sales insured by the aforementioned credit insurance companies and the guarantees granted in favor of Arauco.
In summary, the open account debt covered by the various insurance policies and guarantees amounts to 97.0% and, therefore, Arauco’s portfolio exposure amounts to 3.0%.

Investment Policy:
Arauco has an Investment Policy which identifies and limits the financial instruments and the entities into which the Arauco companies, in particular Celulosa Arauco y Constitucion S.A., are authorized to invest. The Company���s Treasury Department is centralized with operations in Chile. The Head Office is responsible for carrying out investments, cash flow surplus investments, and short and long term debt subscriptions. Exceptions to this rule apply to short and long term debts, and will be for specific investments made through other companies where authorization is required from the Chief Financial Officer.
For financial instruments, the only permitted investments are fixed income investments with adequate liquidity. Each instrument has defined classifications and limits, depending on duration and type of issuer.
Regarding intermediaries (such as banks, securities brokers and dealers of mutual funds that are bank affiliates), a scoring methodology is used to determine the relative degree of risk of each intermediary based on their financial position and assign score points that result in a credit risk rating to each intermediary. Arauco uses this scoring system to determine its investment limits for each intermediary.

The required information to evaluate the various criteria are obtained from published financial statements from the banks under evaluation and from the credit risk ratings of short and long term debt securities obtained from rating agencies authorized by the Superintendence of Banks and Financial Institutions (Fitch Ratings Chile, Humphreys and Feller Rate).
Any necessary exceptions regarding investment limits in each particular instrument or entity must have the authorization from Arauco’s Chief Financial Officer.
23.10.2 Type of Risk: Liquidity Risk
Description
This risk corresponds to Arauco’s ability to fulfill its financial obligations upon maturity.
Explanation of Liquidity Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises
Arauco’s exposure to liquidity risk is mainly from its obligations to bondholders, banks and financial institutions, creditors and other payables. Liquidity risk may arise if Arauco is unable to meet the net cash flow requirements, which sustain its operations under both normal and exceptional circumstances.
Explanation of Objectives, Policies and Processes for Risk Management, and Measurement Methods
The Financial Management Department monitors on an ongoing basis the Company’s cash flow forecasts based on short and long term forecasts and available financing alternatives. In order to manage the risk level of financial assets, Arauco follows its investment policy.

Table of Contents
CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2018
Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated
Explanation of Currency Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises
Arauco is exposed to the foreign currency risk from currency fluctuations arising from sales, purchases and obligations undertaken in foreign currencies, such as the Chilean Peso, Euro, Brazilian Real or other foreign currencies. In the case of significant exchange rate variations, the Chilean Peso is the currency that represents the main currency risk. See Note 11 for details assets and liabilities classified by currency.
Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods
Arauco performs sensitivity analyses to measure the effect of this variable on equity and net result.
Sensitivity analysis considers a variation of +/- 10% of the exchange rate over the Chilean Peso. This fluctuation range is considered possible given current market conditions as of the date of these financial statements. With all other variables at a constant rate, a U.S. Dollar exchange rate variation of +/- 10% in relation to the Chilean Peso would mean a change in the net income year after tax +/- 5.47% (equivalent to ThU.S.$ +/- 47,512), and +/- 0.39% of equity (equivalent to ThU.S.$ +/- 28,507).
Additionally, a sensitivity analysis is carried out assuming a variation of +/- 10% in the closing exchange rate on the Brazilian Real, which is considered a possible range of fluctuation given the market conditions as of the date of these financial statements. With all the other variables constant, a variation of +/- 10% in the exchange rate of the dollar on the Brazilian Real would mean a variation on the net income after tax +/- 0,002% (equivalent to ThU.S.$13) and a change on the equity of +/- 0.0002% (equivalent to ThU.S.$13).
23.10.4 Type of Risk: Market Risk – Interest rate risk
Description
Interest rate risk refers to the sensitivity of the value of financial assets and liabilities in terms of interest rate fluctuations.
Explanation of Interest Rate Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises
Arauco is exposed to risks due to interest rate fluctuations for bonds issued, bank borrowings and financial instruments that bear interest at a variable rate.
Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods
Arauco completes its risk analysis by reviewing its exposure to changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2018, 14.5% our financial debt accrues interest at variable rates. A change of +/- 10% in the interest rate is considered a possible range of fluctuation. Such market conditions would affect the income after tax at rate of +/- 0.13% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+ 1,144) and +/- 0.01% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+ 686) on equity.

23.10.5 Type of Risk: Market Risk – Price of Pulp Risks
Description
Pulp prices are determined by world and regional market conditions. Prices fluctuate based on demand, production capacity, commercial strategies adopted by large-scale forestry companies, pulp and paper producers and by the availability of substitutes.
Explanation of Price Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises
Pulp prices are reflected in revenue from sales and directly affect the net income for the period.
As of March 31, 2018, revenue due to pulp sales accounted for 50.04% of total sales. Pulp prices are fixed on a monthly basis in accordance with the market. Forward contracts or other financial instruments are not used for pulp sales.
Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods
This risk is approached in different ways. Arauco has a team of specialists who perform periodic market and competition analyses, providing tools to analyze and evaluate trends and adjust forecasts. Similarly, Arauco performs price financial sensitivity analysis in order to take the necessary safeguards to confront different scenarios in the best possible manner.
Sensitivity analysis considers a variation of +/- 10% in the average pulp price, a possible fluctuation range given current market conditions at the date of the closing balance. With all other variables constant, a variation of +/- 10% in the average pulp price would mean a variation of +/- 25.25% (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 219,387) on the income for the year after tax and +/- 1.8% (equivalent to ThU.S.$131,632) on equity.

NOTE 26. DISTRIBUTABLE NET PROFIT AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Distributable net profit
As a general policy, the Board of Directors of Arauco agreed that the net profit to be distributed as dividend is determined based on realized net gains/(losses) of any relevant variations in the value of unrealized assets and liabilities, which are excluded from the calculation of net profit during the period such changes are made.
As a result of the foregoing, for purposes of determining the distributable net profit of the Company, which is the same considered for calculating the minimum dividend required and additional dividend, the following unrealized gains/losses are excluded from the net profit for the year:
1) | Unrealized gains/losses relating to the fair value recorded for forestry assets under IAS 41, adding them back to distributable net profit when they are realized through sale or disposed of by other means. |
2) | Those generated through the acquisition of entities. These results will be added back to net profit when they are realized through sale. |
The deferred taxes associated with the amounts described in 1) and 2) above are also excluded.
The following table details the adjustments made for the determination of distributable net profit as March 31, 2018 and 2017 in order to determine the provision of 40% of the distributable net profit for each period:

Total adjustments | 69,390 | |||
|
| |||
Distributable Net Profit at03-31-2017 | 23,782 | |||

The Company expects to maintain its policy of distributing 40% of its net distributable profit as dividends for all future fiscal years, but will also consider the alternative of distributing a provisional dividend at year end.

Table of Contents
OVERVIEW Arauco´s first quarter net income was U.S.$ 197.7 million, an increase of 137.8% compared to last quarter, driven by an increase in revenues and lower financial costs, due to the impact of the repurchase of three of our outstanding bonds in November 2017. Our Adjusted EBITDA increased by 37.0% compared to last quarter, mainly due to higher pulp prices. Our Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 31.6%, an increase compared to the 25.4% obtained during the last quarter. Pulp sales increased compared to last quarter primarily due to higher pulp prices and a slight increase in sales volume. Demand remained steady or growing in some countries. China was affected by restrictions which beneficiated pulp producers, and in Europe supply of raw materials was affected by a warm winter. Paper producers were able to continue transferring the higher costs to their customers. Our wood products segment sales increased mainly due to higher sales volume in panels, sawn timber and plywood. Also, we reached higher prices in the sawn timber and plywood segments. In general, all markets showed good demand, with construction and economy improving.

INCOME STATEMENT Net income for the first quarter of 2018 was U.S.$ 197.7 million, an increase of 137.8% or U.S.$ 114.6 million compared to the U.S.$ 83.2 million obtained in the fourth quarter of last year. The increase is mainly explained by an increase in revenues, lower financial costs, a gain in other income, and a decrease in other expenses, compensated by an increase in income tax.

Income tax for the first quarter was an expense of U.S.$ 51.8 million compared to a gain of U.S.$ 95.0 in the fourth quarter. The main reason for this expense was a higher Income before tax of U.S.$ 261.4 million compared to the previous quarter, during the previous quarter we had a one time gain for the reduction of the tax rate in Argentina. 7

ADJUSTED EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2018 was U.S.$ 463.5 million, 37.0% or U.S.$ 125.3 million higher than the US$ 338.2 million reached during the previous quarter. In terms of Adjusted EBITDA by business, during the first quarter of the year we had an increase in our pulp, wood products and forestry divisions of 35.0%, 4.7% and 24.9% respectively. The main increased in Adjusted EBITDA was in our pulp division, this was due to higher revenues explained by higher pulp prices during the first quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2018 was higher by 57.6% or U.S.$ 169.4 million when compared with the U.S.$ 294 million reached in the same period of 2017, mainly explained by higher average pulp prices of 42.7%.

Pulp prices during the quarter increased by 13.3% compared to last quarter, and sales volume increased by 0.7%. During this quarter demand remained stable or rising depending on the market, and the spreads in returns between markets decreased. Worldwide inventories remained at normal levels, a rise of 2 days during the quarter and a rise of 4 days over the same period of 2017. In Asia, the Chinese New Year period that generally marks the end of the period of high demand has not been noticed, demand was active and prices were stable. This relative stability specially in short fiber, gave time to paper producers to pass the higher costs to their customers with enough success and allowing them to maintain their margins. In long fiber the increases were higher, due to import restrictions on recycled papers. As of January 1, new regulations began to apply: the prohibition of importing unsorted waste paper and a more restrictive level of impurities in the selected grade. This has not only restricted the granting of import permits, it also has created uncertainty in how, how efficient and how accurate customs control is at imports. Europe experienced a very special situation and that was not seen for several years. A very active demand, paper producers operating at full capacity which allowed them to pass costs to their customers. The most significant increase in long fiber grades was not only due to demand, but also to certain supply restrictions due to the harvest problems experienced by Scandinavian pulp producers, restrictions resulting from a mild winter that does not allow to enter the forest to harvest raw materials, this meant a drop in the supply of over 10%. The constant rise in process of raw materials, pulp prices and chemical products for paper producers, has not given time to paper producers to benefit from the increases in paper prices that they have been able to implement by eroding their margins. In the Middle East markets prices were stable, but following the same tendencies that the rest of the world. Korea kept the tendency of China, during the first quarter negotiations were completed. In Latin America prices increases were delayed, because many contracts are indexed. Production during the first quarter increased by 11.6% compared to last quarter. The higher production is explained by less programmed maintenance stoppages during this quarter and because during the fourth quarter of 2017 we had certain production losses in Argentina and the blockade of the Constitución mill by an association of truck owners. 10

Both PBO and MDF, had higher sales volume in our major markets, North and South America. Sales in United States and Canada continued to show stable prices level and an increase in sales volume. Meanwhile in Mexico, sales volume decreased due to difficulties in transferring higher prices of MDF to customers. The new Duraplay plant maintains a constant supply specially in the north of the country. Brazil started the year in good shape, and we expect good demand despite the new capacity that will enter the market in the second semester. This new capacity will come from three new plants (Asperbras, Floraplac and Placas do Brasil) and from the restart of one plant (Duratex). The market shows higher consumption rates, that were reflected in stable sales but with better price levels. The Argentine market remained stable without any big changes. In Chile, a higher dynamism allowed a growth in sales. The rest of Latin America kept their demand and improved in prices. Sawn timber markets showed a positive trend compared to last quarter, increasing prices and sales volume by 4.5% and 0.5% respectively. Demand remained solid, pushing prices even further, especially in China and the rest of Asia, where sawn timber consumption remained strong. Sales in the Middle East remained more stable, and prices continued to rise. Remanufactured sales have not recovered to normal levels for this period of high seasonality in the United States. This market maintains a good level of consumption thanks to the increased activity in the construction industry, however the increased supply from producers in China and Brazil have affected prices. Plywood production and sales volume increased compared to the fourth quarter by 9.5% and 1.1% respectively. Prices increased by 5.5% compared to last quarter. Plywood is experiencing a situation of high demand in markets whose activity in the construction sector is very dynamic. We are optimistic for the next months due to a strong demand for products of higher value, in United States, Europe, Mexico, Chile and Oceania.

FREE CASH FLOW During this quarter, cash provided by operating activities decreased U.S.$ 256.9 million, mainly due to a working capital variation. The increase in working capital was due to: (i) higher Trade and Other Receivables due to an increase in sales, explained by higher pulp prices, (ii) an increase in Inventories due to a higher production during the first quarter compared with the fourth quarter of 2017, and (iii) a decrease in Trade and Other Payables, mainly because during the first quarter we paid the intercompany debt that our subsidiary Masisa Brasil had with Masisa Chile (U.S.$ 41.8 million). Cash used by investment activities fell due to lower capex in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition, cash used by financing activities during this quarter was U.S.$ 0.6 million, as compared to U.S.$ 64.1 million from last quarter.

FIRST QUARTER AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS AND NEWS Grayling Project The Grayling Project continues its course. As of May, 2018, the progress was 60%. The particleboard mill located in Grayling, Michigan, U.S.A., will cost approximately U.S.$ 400.0 million and will have a capacity of 800,000 m3 per year. Rollout of the first panel is estimated to occur during the latter part of 2018. Dissolving Pulp The Dissolving Pulp Project continues its course, as of May, 2018 the progress was 20%. The estimate investment for the project is approximately U.S.$ 185 million. This project should take about two years of construction, with the ramp-up scheduled to occur during the end of 2019. Renewing our commitment to FSC® Certification Our first FSC® re-certification assessment process was carried out during the last two weeks of April. Our company completed a new and demanding process of auditing our forest management in all our heritage in Chile. The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) is an international certification that seeks to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable forest management. FSC® has become an indispensable requirement for the participation of Arauco in global markets and has caused profound changes in the way we work, transforming us into a company that is more connected to its environment. (Forestal Arauco FSC License Code: FSC – C108276) Exchange Offer of Notes due in 2027 and 2047 issued on November 2nd, 2017 On November 2nd, 2017, we completed the private offering of the Notes due in 2027 and in 2047. In the private offering, we agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to complete the exchange offer within 360 days after the date of original issuance of the outstanding notes. The exchange offer began on May 7th, 2018 and will end on June 4th, 2018. We will exchange all outstanding notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn for an equal principal amount of exchange notes that are freely tradeable. Update in the capacity of our Montes del Plata mill On December 28th, 2017 our Montes del Plata mill in Uruguay, renewed its Operational Environmental Permit for three years, which considers an increase of the annual production limit from 1.45 million tons to 1.52 million tons. The expected annual production of the mill was originally 1.3 million tons, during 2017 we made some operational improvements that led to an increase in the annual capacity of the mill, reaching approximately 1.4 million tons. Of the total annual capacity of the mill we own the 50% due to the joint operation we have with Stora Enso, which correspond approximately to 700 thousand tons of annual capacity. During 2017 the mill reached a production record of approximately 1.38 million tons. 16
