Vitru Limited
Notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements
September 30, 2020 and 2019.
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, except as otherwise indicated)
Vitru Limited (“Vitru”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on March 05, 2020. Vitru became the parent company of Vitru Brasil Empreendimentos, Participações e Comércio S.A. (hereafter referred to as “Vitru Brazil”) formerly denominated Treviso Empreendimentos, Participações e Comércio S.A., through the completion of the corporate reorganization described below.
Until the contribution of Vitru Brazil shares to Vitru Limited, in September 2019, Vitru Limited had not commenced operations and had only nominal assets and liabilities and no material contingent liabilities or commitments. Accordingly, Vitru Limited’s consolidated financial information substantially reflects the operations of Vitru Brazil after the corporate reorganization.
The Company is principally engaged in providing educational services in Brazil, mainly undergraduate and continuing education courses, presentially through its eight campuses in two states, or via distance learning, through 784 (December 31, 2019 – 526) learning centers (“hubs”) across the country.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months period ended September 30, 2020 were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 19, 2020.
1.1. | Corporate reorganization and initial public offering |
On March 05, 2020, Vitru was incorporated in the Cayman Islands, for the purposes of its initial public offering (“IPO”).
On September 02, 2020, each of Vitru Brazil ́s shareholders had agreed to contribute their respective shares of Vitru Brazil to Vitru Limited, exchanging thirty-one common shares into one common share of Vitru Limited.
On September 17, 2020, Vitru Limited priced its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 6,000,000 Class A common shares, which began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) on September 18, 2020 under the ticker symbol “VTRU”. The initial offering price was US$ 16.00 per Class A common share.
On September 22, 2020, the share capital of Vitru Limited was increased by 6,000,000 Class A shares through the proceeds received as a result of the IPO of US$ 96,000 thousand (or R$ 521,558). The net proceeds from the IPO were US$ 90,672 thousand (or R$ 492,612), after deducting US$ 5,328 thousand (or R$ 28,946) in underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses totaled US$ 3,430 thousand (or R$ 18,636). The share issuance costs totaled R$ 47,582.
1.2. | Significant events during the period |
Seasonality:
The distance learning undergraduate courses are structured around separate monthly modules. This enables students to enroll in distance learning courses at any time during a semester. Despite this flexibility, generally a higher number of enrollments in distance learning courses occurs in the first and third quarters of each year. These periods coincide with the beginning of academic semesters in Brazil. Furthermore, there is a higher number of enrollments at the beginning of the first semester of each year than at the beginning of the second semester of each year. In order to attract and encourage potential new students to enroll in undergraduate courses later in the semester, the Group often offers discounts, generally equivalent to the number of months that have gone by in the semester. As a result, given revenue from semiannual contracts is recorded over the time in a semester, revenue is generally higher in the second and fourth quarters of each year, as additional students enroll in later on in the semester. Revenue is also higher later on in the semester due to lower dropout rates during that same period.
Recognition of tax losses and temporary differences (Note 7):
Given the continuous growth in Continuing Education activities for the last two years and recent changes to the structure of its operations, the Group reviewed previously unrecognized tax losses and temporary differences, determining that it is now probable that taxable profits will be available against which the tax losses can be utilized and temporary differences will be realized. Accordingly, a deferred tax asset of R$ 10,632 and a deferred tax liability of R$ 12,549 were recognized in 2020.

Leases (Note 9):
With the opening of new hubs following the Group’s expansion strategy, new lease contracts were signed for the Group’s own hubs during the nine months period ended September 30, 2020. During this period, the Group has also concluded renegotiation of terms of a few lease contracts for the extension of lease period at reduced prices. Such new and amended lease contracts resulted in an increment of R$ 41,799 to both right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.
Loans and Financing (Note 11):
Seeking to guarantee the same rates and conditions that would be available in a scenario without the Coronavirus pandemic, on April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a loan agreement of R$ 150,000, with no financial covenants, anticipating a loan to settle the accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries due in December 2020.
The Group is closely monitoring the situation of the 2019 novel coronavirus, or Covid-19, and taking the necessary measures for the safety and well-being of its employees, students, associates and partners. The global impact from the pandemic has been rapidly evolving, and, as such, it poses material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Group´s future performance and financial results. In particular and in the interest of public health and safety, state and local governments in Brazil have imposed mandatory measures, which has resulted in the closure of on-campus learning facilities and hubs.
In response to the virus pandemic, the Group has efficiently implemented several measures aimed at safeguarding the health of its employees, students and hub partners and the stability of operations, including: (1) creating a crisis management committee and a financial committee to discuss the action plan for the Group to address the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic; (2) temporarily replacing in-person weekly meetings at the hubs by online meetings between students and tutors across all units, as a result of which since March 30, 2020 all students have had real-time meetings with their tutors; (3) training teachers and tutors to support students pursuant to this new format; (4) remote support to deliver high-quality content to students and maintain high levels of engagement and a superior learning experience; (5) making no changes to the course schedule or syllabus; (6) putting in place remote emotional and psychological support to students and employees, provided by the Group´s psychology department; and (7) making home office available for all the employees.
As of September 30, 2020, there has been no material impact on the Group’s operations, as most of the Group’s services are already delivered remotely (Distance learning undergraduate courses and most of continuing education courses) or capable of being delivered remotely (some of Continuing education courses and On-campus undergraduate courses). In addition, based on preliminary information available until the approval of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements:
| · | There was no relevant impact on revenue for the nine months period ended September 30, 2020, which was slightly below that expected for the period but presented growth of 11% when compared to the same period in prior year. Student defaults have remained within the expected levels and the engagement of students, compared to the same period in 2019, deteriorated very slightly. |
| · | Expected credit losses were revised considering estimated increases in financial defaults, which resulted in an increase of R$ 3,303 in allowance for estimated credit losses as of September 30, 2020. |
| · | The Group assessed the existence of potential impairment indicators and the possible impacts on the key assumptions and projections caused by the pandemic on the recoverability of long-lived assets (impairment tests) and concluded that no additional provision for impairment of long-lived assets needed to be recorded in the interim financial statements. |
| · | The Group has obtained rent concessions on lease contracts due to the temporary suspension of classes in the on-campus learning facilities and hubs caused by the mandatory school closures during the pandemic. A gain of R$ 1,609 was recognized as Other income (expenses), net, in the statement of profit or loss. Except for these concessions and the modification mentioned in Note 1.2.a above, there were no changes to contractual obligations regarding leased buildings and there were no changes in the expected useful life and residual amount of properties and equipment as a result of Covid-19. |
| · | No changes in the provision for contingencies against the Group were identified as a result of Covid-19. |
| · | As an incentive for the students to keep the payment of tuition fees up to the due date, the Group has granted an additional discount of 5% to all the students that paid their tuitions fees up to the due date in April and May 2020. The amounts of additional discounts granted was R$ 4,005. |
| · | The Group currently has sufficient working capital and other undrawn financing facilities to service its operating activities and ongoing investments. |
| · | The Group has also taken benefit of measures made available by the federal government as follows: |

| i. | Postponement of tax and social charges obligations due date: Certain federal taxes and social charges obligations in the total amount of R$ 10,805 that became due in the second quarter of 2020 have not been paid at their respective original maturity and will be paid until the end of the year, according to the schedule published by the government. |
| ii. | Emergency employment and income preservation benefit program: The Brazilian federal government offered the option of either reducing workload and salary payment for up to three months or suspending employment contracts for up to two months in exchange for the guarantee of maintaining employees after the suspension for the same period as the contract is effectively suspended. The Group has suspended 195 employment contracts from May to September 2020 and had a corresponding expense reduction of R$ 639. No workload reduction was necessary until September and it is not expected for next months while the measures are in effect. |
Due to uncertainties regarding the dynamics of Covid-19 spread, its effects on the economic activities, on customers and suppliers and the measures to be adopted in Brazil, it is impossible to predict the impact the pandemic will have on the global economy, as well as on the Group’s business. The extent of the impact from Covid-19 on the Group’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of pandemic and its impact on students, hub partners and employees, all of which are uncertain and cannot be presently predicted.
2. | Basis of preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements |
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group as of September 30, 2020 and for the nine months period ended September 30, 2020 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These financial statements do not meet all disclosure requirements for the presentation of full annual financial statements and thus should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous fiscal year and corresponding interim reporting period. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“R$”), and all amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand currency units unless otherwise stated.
There have been no changes since December 31, 2019 in the accounting practices adopted for consolidation and in the direct and indirect interests of the Company in its subsidiaries for the purposes of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
2.1. | Significant accounting estimates and assumptions |
The preparation of unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group requires management to make judgments and estimates and to adopt assumptions that affect the amounts presented referring to revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities at the reporting date. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments and estimates made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that are set forth in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.
2.2. | Financial instruments risk management objectives and policies |
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as of December 31, 2019. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk management policies since the year-end.
Segment information is presented consistently with the internal reports provided to the Senior management team, consisting of the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer and other executives, and which is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and is responsible for allocating resources, assessing the performance of the Group's operating segments, and making the Group’s strategic decisions.

Notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements
September 30, 2020 and 2019.
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, except as otherwise indicated)
In reviewing the operational performance of the Group and allocating resources, the CODM reviews selected items of the statement of profit or loss and of comprehensive income, based on relevant financial data for each of the Group’s operating segments, represented by the Group’s main lines of service from which it generates revenue, as follows:
• Distance learning undergraduate courses
• Continuing education courses
• On-campus undergraduate courses
Segment performance is primarily evaluated based on net revenue and on adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA). The Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as operating profit plus depreciation and amortization plus interest received on late payments of monthly tuition fees and adjusted by the elimination of effects from share-based compensation plus/minus exceptional expenses. General and administrative expenses (except for intangible assets’ amortization and impairment expenses), finance results (other than interest on tuition fees paid in arrears) and income taxes are managed on a Group’s consolidated basis and are not allocated to operating segments.
There were no inter-segment revenues in the nine months period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. There were no adjustments or eliminations in the profit or loss between segments.
The CODM does not make strategic decisions or evaluate performance based on geographic regions. Currently, the Group operates solely in Brazil and all the assets, liabilities and results are allocated in Brazil.

As of September 30, 2020, the Group have only Share-based compensation liabilities measured at fair value, in the amount of R$ 34,384, which are classified in Level 3 of the fair value measurement hierarchy given that significant unobservable inputs are used.
There were no transfers between Levels during the nine months period ended in September 30, 2020.

Notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements
September 30, 2020 and 2019.
(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, except as otherwise indicated)
The following table presents the changes in level 3 items for the nine months period ended in September 30, 2020, for recurring fair value measurements:
| | Share-based compensation | |
Opening balance at December 31, 2019 | | | 34,950 | |
Expenses recognized – general and administrative | | | 578 | |
Balance at September 30, 2020 | | | 35,528 | |
The Group has assessed that the fair values of financial instruments at amortized cost such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, current trade receivables, trade payables and prepayments from customers approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Non-current trade receivables, lease liabilities, accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries and loans and financing have their carrying amounts adjusted by their respective effective interest rate in order to be presented as close as possible to their fair value.
The following table summarizes the quantitative information about the significant inputs used in level 3 fair value measurements:
Unobservable inputs | | Weighted average inputs | | Relationship of unobservable inputs with fair value |
Net operating revenue growth rate (i) | | 19.3 | % | Increased growth rate (+200 basis points (bps)) and lower discount rate (-100 bps) would increase FV by R$ 553; lower growth rate (-200 bps) and higher discount rate (+100 bps) would decrease FV by R$ 548. |
Pre-tax discount rate (ii) | | 13.7 | % | Increasing/decreasing the growth rate and the discount rate by +/- 50bps and 100 bps, respectively, would change the FV by +R$ 153 / -R$ 305. |
(i) The growth rate of net operating revenue is based on the historical growth of the student base and management’s expectations of market development.
(ii) Pre-tax discount rate reflects specific risks relating to the segment and country in which the Group operates.
5. | Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments |
| | September 30, 2020 | | | December 31, 2019 | |
Cash and cash equivalents (i) | | | 176,877 | | | | 2,457 | |
Investment funds (ii) | | | 565,848 | | | | 72,321 | |
| | | 742,725 | | | | 74,778 | |
(i) Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of short-term deposits maturing within three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and readily convertible into a known cash amount.
(ii) Short-term investments correspond to financial investments in Investment Funds, with highly rated financial institutions. As of September 30, 2020, the average interest rate on these Investment Funds is 1.86%, corresponding to 81.66% of CDI (December 31, 2019 – 5.81% – 99.10% of CDI). Despite the fact these investments have high liquidity and have insignificant risk of change in value, they do not qualify as cash equivalents given the nature of investment portfolio and their maturity.

Cancellations consist of deductions from revenue to adjust it to the extension it is probable that it will not be reversed, generally related to students that have not attended classes and do not recognize the service provided or are dissatisfied with the services being provided. A provision for cancellation is estimated using the expected value method, which considers accumulated experience and is updated at the end of each period for changes in expectations.

The Group records the allowance for expected credit losses on trade receivables on a monthly basis by analyzing the amounts invoiced in the month, the monthly volume of receivables and the respective outstanding amounts by late payment range, calculating the recovery performance. Under this methodology, the monthly billed amount and each late payment range is assigned a percentage of probability of loss that is accrued for on a recurring basis.
When the delay exceeds 365 days, the receivable is written off. Even for written-off receivables, collection efforts continue, and their receipt is recognized directly in the statement of profit or loss, when incurred, as recovery of losses.

In December 2019, the Group decided to sell its subsidiaries FAC/FAMAT and FAIR, and the UNIASSELVI's undergraduate operation in the campuses Assevim and Famesul. The transaction consists of (i) the sale of the operations from the following campuses located in Brazil in the cities of Brusque and Rio do Sul, as well as all related assets and liabilities, including the "ASSEVIM" and "FAMESUL" trademarks and (ii) the sale of 100% of the shares issued by the entities "FAC/FAMAT" and "FAIR", their campuses and trademarks.
The Group decided to sell these specific assets, that are a portion of the on-campus undergraduate courses segment, in order to raise funds to invest in the distance learning undergraduate courses segment expansion.
In September 2020, the Group understood that the Coronavirus pandemic has changed the market and that to locate a buyer and complete the selling plan that has been initiated on December 2019 is not highly probable within the next three months and so decided to return the assets reclassified to assets held for sale and liabilities as directly associated with assets held for sale back to their original classification as presented below.
