Message from Management
2010 was an exceptionally good year for Grupo Pão de Açúcar (GPA), thanks to a series of advances and achievements, the highlight of which was the conclusion of the association with Casas Bahia. As a result of this important operation, GPA further consolidated its position as Latin Americas biggest retailer and became one of the top ten companies in the world in the electronics/home appliance segment.
Our operational focus remained unaltered, however. We are still predominantly a food distribution company, although our business mix is certainly more balanced, with each division being led by specialized professionals.
We also restructured our business model in 2010. In less than two years, we have transformed ourselves from a multi-format to a multi-business group. As a result, we were faced with the challenge of promoting business synergies and integrations based on corporate governance and, at the same time, ensuring that each business maintains its individuality and ability to continue generating positive results in its operational area.
In order to carry out this change without losing the benefits of centralized management, we undertook a major overhaul of our business model. Based on the right-person-for-the-right-job concept, we nominated dedicated professionals for each business and strengthened the corporate area, responsible for capturing synergies and ensuring integration, while preserving the specific characteristics and dentity of each segment.
Fully aware of the importance of a united and cohesive team capable of overcoming challenges and delivering the results expected for each business and activity, we created a high-performance model focused on the Group’s values: humility, discipline, determination and grit and emotional balance.
The retail food business recorded a series of achievements that were vital in ensuring the Group’s continued growth and creating more value. These included brand rationalization, communications synergy and, especially, the conversion of CompreBem and Sendas into the Extra Super format, strengthening our position in this important group format, which is exceptionally popular with the middle class, the country’s fastest-growing income group in recent years.
In the cash and carry segment, we focused on vigorous organic growth, so that the number of Assaí stores increased from 14, in 2007, to 57 at the end of 2010, ensuring an excellent positioning in this segment in Brazil.
Our e-commerce operation, which culminated in the creation of Nova Pontocom at the beginning of this year, is an example of a business that unites the best fundamentals of its segment: experienced management, a fully-up-to-date integrated e-commerce platform, an ample brand portfolio (Extra.com.br, Pontofrio.com.br and CasasBahia.com.br) and a strong bricks-and-mortar connection, all of which backed by GPA’s stature and logistics and IT advantages.
2
Thanks to this positioning and our results-focused culture, we achieved all our annual guidance targets. It is worth emphasizing that the most important of these is the quality of the result, which is sustainable, thanks to efforts that started around three years ago when we began to work on improving our gross margin and exerting stricter control over expenses, all of which had a direct impact on prices, maintaining GPA Food’s EBITDA margin. As a result, all our formats became more efficient and competitive and we consolidated our image as an organization known for its fair prices, in turn increasing the number customers and pushing up the average ticket.
GPA’s positive trajectory also reflects the positive outlook for the country as a whole. Brazil is no longer just a promise. A series of factors, including the World Cup, the Olympics, the excellent real estate performance and even the government programs, will give added momentum to the consumer market in the coming years, which in practical terms means increased purchasing power and the entry of more consumers into the emerging middle class.
The year’s favorable economic scenario, especially in terms of the upward mobility of a good portion of Brazil’s consumer market, also had a direct impact on the Group’s performance by fueling the consumption of higher value-added products.
We also foresee a more balanced market in terms of competition, thanks to the complete implantation of the ICMS tax substitution regime in several Brazilian states, which should do much to curb the informal market.
In 2010, we also took a major step forward in terms of sustainability with the definitive inclusion of the issue among the Group’s strategic pillars, and the definition of GPA’s policies and guidelines governing sustainable management, which represents a notable advance for all our employees and customers, as well as the entire value chain, in terms of who we are and who we want to be.
We remain confident in the Group’s growth prospects for 2011, a year that will see the consolidation of the Eletro business and the capture of synergies from the integration of Ponto Frio and Casas Bahia, as well as the continuing expansion of GPA Food. Our prospects of excellent results are based on the positive outlook for Brazil’s economy and we remain fully committed to creating new jobs and contributing to the country’s development, reinforcing our PRIDE IN BEING BRAZILIAN.

| (1) Totals may not tally as the figures are rounded off |
In the fourth quarter, the Company recorded a net financial expense of R$131.2 million, equivalent to 2.0% of net sales, chiefly due to the increase in the net debt from R$679.7 million, in 4Q09, to R$1,527.0 million and the period upturn in the SELIC base rate (see “Net Debt”).
The net financial expense of R$131.2 million in 4Q10 was the result of three factors:
(i) interest on the net bank debt totaling R$76.7 million, equivalent to 1.2% of net sales, 20 bps more than in 3Q10, due to the period increase in the SELIC.
(ii) discounted receivables of R$38.0 million, representing 0.6% of net sales, in line with the 3Q10 figure despite the increase in the SELIC, with an average term of 40 days and an average cost of 109.5% of the CDI rate.
(iii) Other assets and liabilities restated by the CDI rate (i.e. taxes paid in installments and court deposits included in the balance sheet), totaling R$16.5 million, equivalent to 0.2% of net sales.
Net Debt
The increase in net debt, shown in the graph below, was mainly due to: (i) extraordinary investments of R$313 million in acquisitions, including R$290 million related to Globex’s capitalization; (ii) investments of R$186 million in the expansion of Assaí; and (iii) approximately R$348 million in interest on existing non-amortized debt.
It is worth noting that 4Q10 net debt of R$1,527.0 million was 14.6% lower than the R$1,788.0 million recorded in 3Q10.

In the fourth quarter, GPA posted a consolidated net financial expense of R$357.8 million, equivalent to 3.2% of net sales.
It is worth noting the recognition of R$18.0 million in non-recurring costs from Globex this quarter, due to the change in the criterion for booking the cost of new discounted receivables, which are now recognized in the same month as the discount. This was the last quarter of such recognition.
Excluding this non-recurring effect, net financial expenses would have come to R$339.8 million, equivalent to 3.1% of net sales.
In FY10, GPA recorded a consolidated net financial expense of R$823.0 million. Excluding the non-recurring effect of R$68.0 million in FY10, the net financial expense would have totaled R$755.0 million.

Equity Income
FIC’s result came to R$11.4 million in the quarter
CONSOLIDATED
Since the third quarter of 2009, FIC (Financeira Itaú CBD) has also been operating Globex's credit cards and, given their respective shareholders’ equities, GPA now retains a 36% interest in FIC, excluding Globex, while Globex retains a 14% stake. The Group’s consolidated interest in FIC remains at 50%.
It is worth noting that the equity income line suffered a negative impact of R$12.8 million in 4Q10, due to the adoption of IFRS, which revalued the previous results of Banco Investcred. All the commentaries below exclude this effect.
In the fourth quarter of 2010,FIC, including Globex’s operations, accounted for 14.0% of total sales, closing the period with 7.8 million clients. Default remained under control, thanks to a rigorous credit-granting policy.
As a result, FIC’s equity income came to R$11.4 million, R$8.2 million of which went to GPA and R$3.2 million to Globex.
This performance was in line with the Group’s strategy of increasing the FIC card’s share of sales, making it the best payment option in the stores and e-commerce operations, with exclusive benefits and advantages for card-holders.
In FY10, equity income, including Globex’s operations, totaled R$47.4 million, R$34.6 million of which went to GPA and R$12.8 million to Globex.

In the fourth quarter, net income came to R$498.0 million, with a net margin of 7.6%.
It is worth noting, however, that there were certain non-recurring items in the quarter, including: i) the effect of the association with Nova Casas Bahia, expressed in BR GAAP and IFRS, and ii) the negative effect of the recognition of federal and state contingencies. The joint impact of these effects, net of taxes, was R$170.0 million.
The depreciation of certain fixed assets, whose useful lives were extended, also had a positive impact of R$51.1 million, net of taxes. Consequently, if adjusted to exclude all these non-recurring effects, met income would have totaled R$276.9 million, with a net margin of 4.2%.
In FY10, net income totaled R$819.2 million, equivalent to 3.5% of net sales. Excluding the non-recurring items in FY10, net income would have come to R$648.1 million, with a margin of 2.8%.
