Report on review of quarterly information
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Natura &Co Holding S.A.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying parent company and consolidated interim accounting information of Natura &Co Holding S.A. ("Company"), included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, comprising the balance sheet at that date and the statements of operations and comprehensive income, the statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the quarter then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the parent company and consolidated interim accounting information in accordance with the accounting standard CPC 21, Interim Financial Reporting, of the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC) and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as the presentation of this information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim accounting information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently did not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on the interim information
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying parent company and consolidated interim accounting information included in the quarterly information referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.

Emphasis of Matter
Reissuance of Quarterly Information Form (ITR)
and review report
On May 7, 2020, we issued an unqualified review report on the Quarterly Information (ITR) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. We call your attention to Note 2.1(b) of the Quarterly Information (ITR), which describes that the ITR originally issued by the Company on May 7, 2020 is being reissued to include a reconciliation in Note 25.3, consequently, the predecessor auditor reissued its unqualified previously issued report dated May 2, 2019. Our conclusion is not qualified in relation to this matter.
Other matters
Statements of value added
The quarterly information referred to above includes the parent company and consolidated statements of value added for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. These statements are the responsibility of the Company's management and are presented as supplementary information under IAS 34. These statements have been subjected to review procedures performed together with the review of the quarterly information for the purpose of concluding whether they are reconciled with the interim accounting information and accounting records, as applicable, and if their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in the accounting standard CPC 09 - Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these statements of value added have not been properly prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria established in this accounting standard, and consistent with the parent company and consolidated interim accounting information taken as a whole.
Audit and review of the corresponding amounts
prior year and period
The Quarterly Information (ITR) mentioned in the first paragraph includes accounting information corresponding to the statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, cash flows and value added for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, presented for comparison purposes. The corresponding accounting information of the Company, for the quarter ended March 31, was prepared by management based on the procedures described in Note 2.1(a).
The review of the Quarterly Information (ITR) for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 of Natura Cosméticos S.A. (currently, a wholly owned subsidiary of the holding Natura &Co Holding S.A.) was conducted under the responsibility of other independent auditors, who issued an unqualified review report dated November 12, 2020.
The Quarterly Information (ITR) mentioned in the first paragraph also includes accounting information corresponding to the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, obtained from the financial statements as of December 31, 2019, originally prepared before the reclassifications described in Note 25.3, which were performed in connection with the acquisition of Avon Products, Inc., and are presented for comparison purposes. The examination of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, as originally prepared, was conducted under the responsibility of other independent auditors, who issued unqualified audit opinion dated March 5, 2020.
As part of our review of the ITR for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we reviewed the aforementioned reclassifications as they relate to assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2019, described in Note 25.3. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that such reclassifications are not appropriate or have not been correctly performed, in all material respects. We were not engaged to audit, review or apply any other procedures on the Company’s 2019 other financial information, and, therefore, we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance on the financial information for that year.

The following table summarizes the preliminary calculation of the fair value of the compensation transferred on January 3, 2020.
| In millions of R$, except for the number of shares |
Number of Avon outstanding common shares as of January 3, 2020 | 536,383,776 |
Multiplied by the exchange ratio of 0.600 Natura &Co Holding Shares per each Avon common share | 321,830,266 |
Multiplied by the market price of Natura &Co shares on January 3, 2020 | 41,00 |
Consideration in the issuance of shares | 13,195 |
Adjustment to the transferred compensation (a) | 171 |
Fair value of the Compensation to be transferred | 13,366 |
(a) Related to the effects of potentially replacements and settlements of share-based payment plans, of which the amount of R$ 80 thousand refers to the share-based payment plans of Avon, in which it was substituted by Natura &Co, and R$ 91 thousand refers to the stock option plans liquidated as a result of the conclusion of the transaction. These are pre-combination installments that were regarded as a transferred consideration.
Natura &Co is yet to conclude the process of allocation of the transferred compensation among identified assets and liabilities acquired for their fair value. The table below shows the preliminary allocation prepared by the Company and the resulting goodwill. Differences between the preliminary estimates and the final recognition of the acquisition may occur and they may be relevant. Accounting standard “CPC 15/ IFRS 3 - Business combination” allows the Company to finalize this process of allocation of the transferred compensation among identified assets and liabilities up to 12 months counted from the acquisition date. Natura &Co is analyzing the allocation of the transferred compensation to the identified assets and liabilities acquired for their fair value. The table below shows the preliminary allocation prepared by the Company and the resulting goodwill.
The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the consideration transferred on January 3, 2020:
| In millions of R$ |
Total estimated consideration to be transferred: | 13,366 |

(-) Net assets | 2,420 |
| |
Interest of non-controlling shareholders | 28 |
| |
Goodwill (4) | 10,974 |
| (1) | On the acquisition date, the fair value of the accounts receivable is equal to their accounting value, net of a provision for expected losses in the amount of R$ 270.2 million. |
| (2) | The fair value of intangible assets includes intangible assets acquired and registered by Avon prior to the fair value allocation, in the sum of R$ 291 million, added by the effects of allocation of fair values of the following items: |
| Nature | Estimated fair value (in millions of Reais) | Estimated useful life |
Trade name “Avon” | Represents the fair value of trade name “Avon” | 1,893 | Indefinite |
Main brands | Represents the fair value of “Main brands” | 518 | 20 years |
Developed technologies | Represents the fair value of all technology required to develop Avon products, including product formulas, labeling data, manufacture processes, regulatory approvals, packages of products and designs. | 1,132 | 7 years |
Sales representatives | Represents the fair value of Avon’s relationship with its sales representatives. | 1,876 | 14 years |
Total | | 5,419 | |
| (3) | The provisions for contingent risks demonstrated in the chart above by the sum corresponds to the historic value recorded by Avon, given that the Company is still assessing the fair value estimates, and also identifying additional contingencies which fit the recognition requirement established on paragraph 23 of CPC 15 (IFRS3). That is, contingencies that: (i) represent a present obligation arising from past events and (ii) can be reliably measured, regardless of the loss probability. |
| (4) | Goodwill pertaining to the strong market position and geographic regions that will result in a more diversified and balanced global portfolio, as well as future expected profitability and operational synergies, such as supply, manufacturing, distribution and efficiency of the administrative structure and revenue growth. This goodwill arising from the transaction is not expected to result in a tax benefit or to be deductible for tax purposes. |
Since the acquisition date, Avon contributed with R$ 4,246.2 million of net revenues and impacted in R$ 540.3 million of losses in the consolidated results of Natura &Co.
Since the acquisition was concluded on January 1st, 2020 and there was no significant transaction of the revenue results until January 3, 2020, the consolidated net revenues and the net revenues of the three months. In this same period, a provision for the transaction cost incurred by Avon, in the sum of R$ 172.3 million, was recorded, which is part of the acquired identified liabilities.

| 5.2 | Financial risk factors |
Information pertaining to the financial risk factors was presented in the Company’s 2019 annual financial statements, on Note 5.2.
To hedge the current positions of the Balance Sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries against market risks, the following derivative financial instruments were used and consist of the balances as follows, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
Description | Fair Value (Level 2) |
Consolidated |
March 2020 | December 2019 |
“Financial” derivatives | 1,955,145 | 725,060 |
“Operating” derivatives | 9,520 | 512 |
Total | 1,964,665 | 725,572 |
As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company and its controlled companies are primarily exposed to the risk of fluctuation of the US dollar, euro and pound sterling and emerging market currencies. In order to hedge foreign exchange exposures in relation to foreign currency, the Company and its controlled companies enter into transactions with derivative financial instruments of the "swap” type and forward purchase of currency named Non-Deliverable Forwards - NDF.
As of March 31, 2020, loans, financing and debentures in the consolidated balance sheet include accounts in foreign currency which expose the controlled companies of the Company to foreign exchange risks, representing, in the aggregate, total liabilities of R$ 4,309,492 (R$ 3,381,959 as of December 31, 2019).
| i) | Derivatives to hedge foreign exchange risk |
The outstanding Derivative agreements present maturity flows between January 2020 and February 2023. The Derivative agreements in The Body Shop were entered into with represented counterparties and mature within up to 12 months.
The Company and its controlled companies classify the derivatives in: “Financial” and “Operating”. The “Financial” ones are “swap” or “forward” derivatives, contracted to hedge the foreign exchange risk of borrowings, financing, debt instruments and loans in foreign currency. The “Operating” ones are derivatives contracted to hedge the foreign exchange risk of operating cash flows of the business.
As of March 31, 2020, the balances of derivatives are as follows:
“Financial” derivatives

For financial derivatives maintained by the Company and its controlled companies as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, due to the fact agreements are directly entered into with the financial institutions and not through stock markets, there are no margin calls deposited as guarantee of said transactions.
“Operating” derivatives - Consolidated
As of March 31, 2020, the Company and its controlled companies maintain derivative financial instruments of the “forward” type, with the purpose of hedging the foreign exchange risk of operating cash flows (such as import and export transactions):
Description | Principal (Notional) amount | Fair value |
March 2020 | December 2019 | March 2020 | December 2019 |
Net position - GBP and USD | 1,243,084 | - | 9,598 | - |
Forward agreements | 12,699 | 1,302,869 | (78) | 512 |
Total Derivative Financial Instruments, net | 1,255,783 | 1,302,869 | 9,520 | 512 |
Sensitivity analysis
For the sensitivity analysis of the foreign exchange exposure risk, the Management of the Company and its controlled companies understands it is necessary to consider, in addition to the assets and liabilities with exposure to the fluctuation of exchange rates recorded in the balance sheet, the fair value of the financial instruments contracted by the Company to hedge certain exposures as of March 31, 2020, as shown in the following chart:
| Consolidated |
| March 2020 | December 2019 |
Loans and financing in Brazil in foreign currency (a) | (4,309,492) | (3,381,959) |
Accounts receivables registered in Brazil in foreign currency | 18,178 | 10,007 |
Accounts payable registered in Brazil in foreign currencies | (15,736) | (10,543) |
Fair value of the “financial” derivatives | 4,850,442 | 3,729,691 |
Net asset exposure | 543,392 | 347,196 |
(a) Excluding transaction costs.
This analysis considers only financial assets and liabilities registered in Brazil in foreign currency, since foreign exchange exposure in other countries is close to zero due to the strength of currencies and the effectiveness of their derivatives, and considers that all other variables, especially interest rates, remain constant and ignore any impact from purchase and sale forecasts.
The tables below show the projection for incremental loss that would have been recognized in the subsequent period, assuming that the current net foreign exchange exposure remains static and based on the following scenarios:
| Consolidated |
Description | Company’s Risk | Probable scenario | Scenario II | Scenario III |
Net exposure | Dollar decrease | 1,900 | (179,360) | (541,879) |
The probable scenario considers future US dollar rates for 90 days, as of March 31, 2020. According to quotations obtained at B3 on the expected maturity dates of financial instruments with foreign exchange exposure, it is R$ 5.20 / USD 1.00. Scenarios II and III consider a drop in the US dollar of 25% (R$ 3.91 / USD 1.00) and 50% (R$ 2.61 / USD 1.00), respectively. Probable scenarios II and III are being presented in compliance with CVM Ruling No. 475/08. The Management uses the probable scenario in the assessment of possible changes in the exchange rate and presents said scenario in compliance with IFRS 7/CPC 40 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
The Company and its controlled companies does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Sensitivity analysis
On March 31, 2020, there are loans, financing and debenture agreements in foreign currency attached to swap agreements, changing the indexation over the liability to the variation of the Certificate of Interbank Deposit (CDI). Therefore, the risk of the Company and its controlled companies becomes the CDI variation exposure. Find below the exposure to interest rate risks of transactions bound to CDI variation, including derivative transactions (loans, financing and debentures were considered at their full amounts, since 98.5% of their sum is linked to CDI):
| Company | Consolidated |
Total loans and financing - in local currency (note No. 19) | (1,079,905) | (15,045,222) |
Operations in foreign currency with derivatives bound to CDI | - | (4,287,844) |
Financial investments (explanatory notes no. 6 and 7) | 552,203 | 1,822,244 |
Net exposure | (527,702) | 17,510,822 |
The tables below show the projection for incremental loss that would have been recognized in the subsequent period, assuming that the current net liability exposure remains static and based on the following scenarios:
Consolidated |
Description | Company’s Risk | Probable scenario | Scenario II | Scenario III |
Net liability | Rate increase | 22,371 | (44,941) | (112,253) |
The probable scenario considers future interest rates pursuant to quotations from B3 in the predicted maturity dates of the financial instruments exposed to interest rate, as of March 31, 2020. Scenarios II and III consider an increase in the interest rate of 25% (4.2% per year) and 50% (5.1% per year), respectively, over the CDI rate of 3.4% per year.
The result of the credit risk management is reflected in the “Provision for expected credit losses” tab under “Accounts receivable from clients”, as demonstrated in explanatory note 8.
The Company and its controlled companies consider the credit risk for transactions with financial institutions to be low, as these are considered by the Management as first-rate.
The Management monitors the consolidated liquidity level for the Company and its controlled companies considering the expected cash flows against unused credit facilities, as shown in the following chart:
| Company | Consolidated |
| March 2020 | December 2019 | March 2020 | December 2019 |
Total current assets | 1,063,180 | 3,050,574 | 13,860,739 | 9,430,057 |
Total current liabilities | (1,255,354) | (3,080,906) | (11,533,584) | (7,518,423) |
Total net current assets | (192,174) | (30,332) | 2,327,155 | 1,911,634 |
As of March 31, 2020, the book value of financial liabilities, on the date of the balance sheet, measured at amortized cost, considering interest payments at a post-fixed rate and the value of debt securities reflecting the forward market interest rates, may be changed as post-fixed interest rates change. Their corresponding maturities, considering that the Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with contractual covenants, are evidenced below:

As of December 31, 2019, the Company and its subsidiaries had two credit facilities:
| Ø | Up to seventy million pound sterlings (GBP 70 million), with no guarantee, that could be withdrawn in installments to meet short-term financing needs of The Body Shop International Limited. This facility was used by your in directed subsidiaries during the first quarter of 2020, to reinforce working capital and liquidity. |
| Ø | Up to one hundred and fifty Reais (R$ 150,000), with no guarantee, which was terminated during the first semester of 2020. |
As of the date of this consolidated financial statement, the Company’s Management cannot predict the extent and duration of the measures adopted by governments in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries have operations and, therefore, cannot predict the direct and indirect impacts of Covid-19 on its business, operating results and financial condition, including:
| Ø | the impact of Covid-19 in the financial conditions and operating results, including general economic trends and perspectives, financial and capital resources or liquidity position; |
| Ø | how future operations could be impacted; |
| Ø | the impact on costs or access to capital and financing resources and on ability to meet the covenants of credit agreements; |
| Ø | if the Company and its subsidiaries could incur any material Covid-19-related contingencies; |
| Ø | how Covid-19 could affect assets on the balance sheet and the ability to timely record those assets; |
| Ø | the advance of any material losses, increases in provisions for credit losses, restructuring charges or other expenses; |
| Ø | any changes in accounting judgment which had or are reasonably expected to have a relevant impact in this financial statement; |
| Ø | the impact on the demand for the Company and its subsidiaries products; |
| Ø | the impact on the Company and its subsidiaries supply chain; |
| Ø | the impact on the relationship between costs and revenues; and |
| Ø | other unforeseen impacts and consequences. |
However, based on the uncertainties described above, the Company and its subsidiaries are closely monitoring how the pandemic caused by Covid-19 progresses and created crisis committees in several areas, including with the main employees, in order to monitor, analyze and decide on actions to minimize impacts, assuring continuity of operations and promoting health and safety for all people involved in its operations.
As of the date of the approval to issue the Company’s financial statements, and also since the beginning of the virus spread and the consequent restrictive measures imposed by governments, such as closing non-essential businesses and restricting the movement of people at borders, the Company has implemented some measures in all its operations, aligned with the government’s measures:
| Ø | Incentive to the Company and its subsidiaries employees to work remotely and adoption of essential criteria to limit industrial and logistical operations; |
| Ø | Adoption of new safety measures for operational workers, such as masks and procedures to leave people in a safe distance from each other; |
| Ø | Closing of stores, where and when required by the authorities; |
| Ø | Replanning sales cycles, prioritizing personal care items; |
| Ø | Speeding up the digitization of sales channels; |
| Ø | Wide disclosure of the digital magazine; |

The promissory notes issued by Natura &Co Holding on December 20, 2019 include an obligation that demands that the Company maintain a certain indebtedness index that must be verified in June 2020, however, as a result of the impacts of COVID-19, the creditors of such notes agreed to not calculate this indebtedness index in June 2020.
The effects of the incentive plan that some governments are announcing are also being monitored and included in the management’s projections.
The actions and decisions above are constantly under review by the management and the committees, according to the development of global scenarios. As a response to the possible impacts of Covid-19, the company carried out an impairment assessment on the base date of March 31, 2020 for the cash-generating units (“CGU”) that include the business combination goodwill (Note 17.a)

| 11. | INCOME TAX AND SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION |
The effective rate calculated by the Company in the period of March 31, 2020 was negative in 13%. This percentage is based on the losses before taxes of R$ 730.1 million and in the income tax expenses of R$ 94.8 million. The main components causing the effective rate to be distant from the nominal income tax rate of 34% are the tax losses of certain jurisdictions which may not benefit from deferred asset income tax, permanent effects related to income tax withheld at source arising from transactions among companies of the group which may not be used and the additional recognition of deferred liability income tax due to the announcement by the British government that the nominal rate will not be reduced from 19% to 17%. Excluding the adverse effects caused especially by jurisdictions with tax losses that may not benefit from deferred asset income tax, the Company’s effective rate would be approximately 32.6%.
The effective rate calculated by the Company in the period of March 31, 2019 was 30.7%. This percentage is based on the profits before taxes of R$ 19.4 million and in the income tax expenses of R$ 6 million. The main components causing the effective rate to be distant from the nominal income tax rate of 34% are the tax incentives and the subvention of investments.

On the acquisition date of Avon (Note 4) on January 3, 2020, there was a balance of long-term assets held for sale with acquired fair value of R$ 186,518 (USD 46,036). During such period, circumstances arose which were previously considered as unlikely and, as a result, Avon decided not to carry on with the sale of two properties with total value of USD9.1MM. As a result, it controlled reclassified such properties held for sale in the property, plant and equipment assets. During the reclassification, we recorded a real depreciation, resulting in a non-property impact to our consolidated financial statements. On March 31, 2020, the assets available for sale include three Avon properties at the sum of R$ 186,518 (USD 35,900).

| a) | Impairment testing of intangible assets with indefinite useful life |
Goodwill from the expected future profitability of acquired companies and intangibles assets with indefinite useful life were allocated to the Company’s CGU groups. In accordance with CPC 01 - Redução ao Valor Recuperável de Ativos (IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets), when a CGU or a group of CGUs have an intangible asset with indefinite useful life allocated, the Company must test its book value for impairment annually, or whenever there is evidence of such. During the period ending on March 31, 2020, the management considers that the impacts of COVID 19 in its operations (note 5.3) is an indication of requirement of impairment testing of intangible assets with indefinite useful life. CGU groups with intangible assets in such situation as of March 31, 2020 are presented bellow:
2020 |
Consolidated |
CGUs Groups / | Trademarks and patents | Goodwill | Total |
Operating Segment |
Avon | 3,092,915 | 14,013,264 | 17,106,179 |
Aesop | - | 112,977 | 112,977 |
The Body Shop | 1,971,032 | 1,750,073 | 3,721,105 |
Other | 3,722 | 1,456 | 5,178 |
Total | 5,067,669 | 15,877,770 | 20,945,439 |
The main updated premises used to calculate the fair value minus sales cost on March 31, 2020 are presented below:
| Aesop | The Body Shop | Avon |
Measurement of impairment value (fair value minus sales cost) | Discounted cash flow. |
Projected cash flow | Operating business cycle (approximately 5 years) with perpetuity. |
Budgeted gross margin | Average gross margin based on history and projections for the following 5 years, adjusted with the results of potential impacts of Covid-19. |
Estimated costs | Costs based on historical data and market trends, optimization of retail operations (renewal of the geographic presence of stores, revitalization of the franchise network) and physical expansion with growth in market share. |
Growth rate in perpetuity (*) | Constant growth of 2.5%. | Constant growth of 2.0%. | Constant growth of 2.0%. |
Discount rate | These cash flows were discounted using a discount rate before taxes of 11.52% p.a. for The Body Shop, 12.34% p.a. for Aesop and 13.21% p.a. for Avon, in real terms. The discount rate was based on the weighted average cost of capital that reflects the specific risk of each segment. |
(*) Based on the inflation applicable to the host country of each segment, based on public information released by the International Monetary Fund.
The Company carried out a sensitivity analysis of the following variables: (i) discount rate and (ii) growth rate in perpetuity, due to their potential impacts on cash flows. A 1 p.p. increase in the discount rate or a 1 p.p. decrease in the growth rate in perpetuity of the cash flow of each CGU group would not result in the need to recognize a loss. Based on the analyses conducted by the Management, there was no need to record impairment losses for the balances of these assets in the year ending on March 31, 2020.
In addition, as the accounting for the acquisition of Avon that took place on January 3, 2020 was still preliminarily presented in accordance with Note 4, the allocation of goodwill at UGC, for the purposes of this specific test, was also performed on a preliminary basis.

The main civil cases are the following:
| i) | Avon was named defendant in several proceedings for personal damages filed in USA courts, claiming that certain powder products that Avon sold in the past were contaminated with asbestos. Many such actions involve several co-defendants of a range of different industries, including cosmetics manufacturers and manufacturers of other products that, unlike the Company’s products, were designed to include asbestos. On March 31, 2020, there were 128 individual proceedings pending against the Company. During the quarter ending on March 31, 2020, 18 new proceedings were shelved and twenty others were shelved, settled or otherwise concluded. The amount of our records in this area so far has not been significant, whether individually or jointly. Similar additional cases deriving from the use of the Company’s powder products are reasonably predicted. |
We believe that the claims against us in such cases have no grounds. We are strongly defending ourselves against such claims and will continue doing so. Until this date, the Company has not been sued in any case filed against it and there were no findings of enforceable liability against the Company. However, the results of testing throughout the country in similar cases filed against other manufacturers of cosmetic powder products vary from direct employment terminations to very large jury-led indemnifications for compensatory and punitive damages. Due to the uncertainties inherent to litigation, we cannot predict the results of all individual cases pending against the Company, and we may only make a reasonable estimate for a small number of individual cases that have progressed to the later stages of court proceedings. For the remaining cases, we supply an aggregate and continuous exposure estimate, which considers the historic results of all cases we have settled so far. Any additions currently recorded in the Company’s balance sheet in relation to these cases are not relevant. Other than those, currently, we may not estimate our reasonably possible or probable losses. However, any adverse results, whether in an individual case or jointly, may be relevant. The future costs to litigate such cases, which we fund when incurred, are unknown, but may be significant, although some costs are covered by insurance.
| ii) | On February 14, 2019, an alleged class action complaint of the shareholder (Bevinal v. Avon Products, Inc., et al., No. 19-cv-1420) was filed in the USDC for the South District of New York against the company and some of its former officers. On June 3, 2019, the court appointed a main plaintiff and a class attorney. The complaint was subsequently changed on June 28, 2019, retitled "In re Avon Products, Inc. Litigation over Securities" on July 8, 2019. On July 24, 2019, the plaintiffs presented a new changed complaint. The changed complaint is submitted on behalf of a new class, supposedly comprised of all purchasers or acquirers of Avon common shares between January 21, 2016 and November 1st, 2017, including such latter date. The charge claims violations to Sections 10 (b) and 20 (a) of the 1934 Securities Exchange Act, based on supposedly fake or misleading statements and supposed market manipulation with relation to, among other things, changes made in the Avon’s credit terms for Brazilian Representatives. On July 26, 2019, Avon and the individual defendants submitted a motion to dismiss. On November 18, 2019, the court denied such motion. Subsequently, on December 16, 2019, Avon and the individual defendants submitted an answer to the changed complaint. On February 14, 2020, the plaintiffs submitted a motion for class certification. The parties are currently under the discovery stage. Avon notified this subject to the Company’s insurers. In light of the initial stage of the litigation, we may not predict the result of this matter and may not assess the loss probability or make a reasonable estimate of the amount or range of loss that could arise from an adverse result. |
The adjusted amounts involved in the requests for restitution of PIS and COFINS installments collected with ICMS included in their calculation bases, in the period of March 2004 to March 2007, not recorded until March 31, 2020, total R$ 145,025 (R$ 26,993 on December 31, 2019).

| Ø | TBS International – all The Body Shop operations, except those located in Brazil and Latin America; and |
| Ø | Aesop International – all Aesop operations, except those located in Brazil and Latin America. |
In addition to the analysis per segment, the Company’s Management also assesses its revenues in several levels, mainly through sales channels: direct sales, operations in the retail market, e-commerce, B2B and franchises. However, the segregation by this kind of operation is not yet considered as significant for disclosures from the Management.
Net revenue by segment is as follows in the quarter ending on March 31, 2020:

The “Co-Investment Plan” is comprised of the grant of the Company’s common shares for a group of workers that may invest part of their share in the profits (up to the limit of 50%) to purchase shares, such that the Company shall grant the same number of shares of the amount invested by the beneficiary. The rights of participants in relation to the “Co-Investment Plan” will only be fully acquired to the extent the participant remains continuously employed by the Company and its controlled companies until the 3rd anniversary of the grant date.
The “Long-Term Incentive Plan” consists of granting common shares of the Company to a group of workers and, unless otherwise determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, the rights of participants in relation to the Performance Shares will only be fully acquired to the extent that: (i) the participant remains continuously employed by the Company and its controlled companies until the 3rd anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) the performance conditions are met. For certain participants, there is a special condition for item (i) above, in which 50% of the granted Performance Shares will be acquired on the 3rd anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 50% on the 4th anniversary of the grant date.
The changes in the number of purchase options for outstanding shares and their corresponding weighted average prices, as well as variations in the number of restricted shares, are as follows:
