| 1.2. | Major events in the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 |
| 1.2.1. | Effects of the war between Russia and Ukraine |
As a result of the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Company continuously monitors its effects, direct and indirect, reflected in society, economy and markets (global and domestic), with the objective of evaluating possible impacts and risks for your business.
Therewith, we can separate the Company's assessment into four main areas:
| (i) | Personnel: Suzano does not have employees or facilities of any nature in any of the locations related to the conflict. |
| (ii) | Supply Chain: the Company did not identify any short-term or long-term risk of a possible interruption or shortage of materials to its industrial and forestry activities. So far, only greater volatility has been observed in commodities and energy prices. |
| (iii) | Logistics: internationally, there was no change in logistical operations, which means, all the routes used kept unchanged and the moorings in the planned locations have been maintained. At the domestic level, no change in logistical flows was identified either. |
| (iv) | Commercial: to date, the Company continues with its transactions as planned, maintaining service to its customers in all its sectors of activity. Only the suspension of sales to a few customers located in Russia was determined, without any significant financial impact. |
At last, it is appropriate to inform that, as a result of the current scenario, the Company has maintained actions to expand the monitoring together with its main stakeholders, in order to ensure the necessary updating and flow of information in a timely manner to the dynamics of the global conjuncture for its decision making.
On January 7, 2022, through a notice to shareholders, it was approved the distribution of dividends by the Company in the total amount of R$1,000,000, at the ratio of R$0.741168104 per Company share, considering the number of “ex-treasury” shares on the present date, declared “ad referendum” of the General Meeting that approves the accounts for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, to the balance of retained earnings ascertained in the 3rd trimester of 2021 and in compliance with the net income calculated on the semi-annual balance sheet dated June 30, 2022, even after the resolution at the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting, held on October 25, 2021, which approved the full offsetting of the Company’s accumulated losses, through partial deduction of the balance of retained earnings. Interim dividends will be allocated to the mandatory minimum dividend for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
The payment of interim dividends was made on January 27, 2022, in Brazilian Reais. There was no monetary restatement or incidence of interest between the dividend declaration date and the effective payment date.
Dividends are exempt from Income Tax, in accordance with the Brazilian legislation.

| 2. | BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION |
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information, of the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, are prepared in compliance with the international standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and disclose all the applicable significant information related to the financial information, which is consistent with the information used by Management in the performance of its duties.
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information are expressed in thousands of Brazilian Reais (“R$”), as well as the amounts of other currencies, when applicable, were also expressed in thousands, unless otherwise stated.
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information requires Management to make judgments, use estimates and adopt policies in the process of applying accounting practices, that affect the disclosed amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, including the disclosure of contingent liabilities assumed. However, the uncertainty inherent to these judgements, assumptions and estimates could result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities in future periods.
The Company reviews its judgments, estimates and assumptions continually as disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 (Note 3.2.34). There were no changes in these judgments, estimates and assumptions compared to disclosed on December 31, 2021.
The consolidated financial statements were prepared on historical cost basis, except for the following material items recognized:
| (i) | derivative and non-derivative financial instruments measured at fair value; |
| (ii) | share-based payments and employee benefits measured at fair value; |
| (iii) | biological assets measured at fair value; and |
| (iv) | deemed cost of property, plant and equipment. |
The main accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information are presented in Note 3.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared under the going concern assumption.
| 3. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information was prepared based on the information of Suzano and its associates on the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, as well as in accordance with consistent accounting practices and policies.
Suzano S.A. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information Three-month period ended March 31, 2022 | |
| |
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, considering that its purpose is to provide an update on the activities, events and significant circumstances in relation to those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information focus on new activities, events and circumstances and do not duplicate the information previously disclosed, except when Management judges that the maintenance of the information is relevant.
The accounting policies have been consistently applied to all consolidated companies.
There were no changes on such policies and estimates calculation methodologies, except for the application of the new accounting policies as of January 1, 2022 and whose estimated impact was disclosed in the annual financial statements of December 31, 2021, as disclosed in the Note 3.1.
| 3.1. | New accounting policies and changes in accounting policies adopted |
The new standards and interpretations issued, until the issuance of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information, are described below.
| 3.1.1. | Accounting policies adopted |
| 3.1.1.1. | Business Combination IFRS 3 – Reference to the conceptual framework(Applicable on/or after January 1, 2022. Early adoption is permitted if the entity also adopts all other updated references (published together with the updated Conceptual Framework) on the same date or earlier. |
The amendments update IFRS 3 so that it refers to the 2018 Conceptual Framework instead of the 1989 Structure. It also include in IFRS 3 the requirement that, for obligations within the scope of IAS 37, the buyer applies IAS 37 to determine whether there is a present obligation on the acquisition date due to past events. For a tax within the scope of IFRIC 21 - Levies, the buyer applies IFRIC 21 to determine whether the event that resulted in the obligation to pay the tax occurred up to the date of acquisition.
The amendments add an explicit statement that the buyer does not recognize contingent assets acquired in a business combination.
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
| 3.1.1.2. | IAS 37 - Onerous contracts: Cost to fulfill an onerous contract (Applicable for annual periods on/or after January 1, 2022, early adoption permitted) |
The amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets clarify what “costs to fulfill a contract” represent when an onerous contract is assessed. Some entities that apply the “incremental cost” approach may have the value of their provisions increased, or new provisions recognized for onerous contracts as a result of the new definition.
Suzano S.A. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information Three-month period ended March 31, 2022 | |
| |
The need for clarification was caused by the introduction of IFRS 15, which replaced the existing requirements related to revenue, including guidelines contained in IAS 11, which dealt with construction contracts. While IAS 11 specified which costs were included as costs to fulfill a contract, IAS 37 did not do, generating a diversity of practice. The amendment aims to clarify which costs should be included in the assessment.
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
| 3.1.1.3. | Property, plant and equipment - IAS 16 – Revenue earned before an asset is ready for its intended use (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2022, early adoption permitted) |
In the process of building an item of property, plant and equipment for its intended use, an entity may in the same time produce and sell products generated in the process of construction of the item of property, plant and equipment. Before the change proposed by the IASB, in practice, several ways of accounting for such revenues were found. The IASB has amended the standard to provide guidance on accounting for such revenues and related production costs.
With the new proposal, the sale revenue is no longer deducted from the cost of property, plant and equipment, but is recognized in the income statement together with the production costs of these items. IAS 2 Inventories must be applied in the identification and measurement of production costs.
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
| 3.1.1.4. | IFRS 1 – First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2022, early adoption permitted) |
The amendment provides additional relief to a subsidiary which becomes a first-time adopter later than its parent in respect of accounting for cumulative translation differences. As a result of the amendment, a subsidiary that uses the exemption in IFRS 1:D16(a) can now also elect to measure cumulative translation differences for all foreign operations at the carrying amount that would be included in the parent’s consolidated financial statements, based on the parent’s date of transition to IFRS Standards, if no adjustments were made for consolidation procedures and for the effects of the business combination in which the parent acquired the subsidiary. A similar election is available to an associate or joint venture that uses the exemption in IFRS 1:D16(a).
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
| 3.1.1.5. | IFRS 9 – Financial instruments (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2022, early adoption permitted) |
The amendment clarifies that in applying the ‘10 per cent’ test to assess whether to derecognise a financial liability, an entity includes only fees paid or received between the entity (the borrower) and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the entity or the lender on the other’s behalf.
The amendment is applied prospectively to modifications and exchanges that occur on or after the date the entity first applies the amendment.
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
Suzano S.A. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information Three-month period ended March 31, 2022 | |
| |
| 3.1.1.6. | IAS 41 – Agriculture (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2022, early adoption permitted) |
The amendment removes the requirement in IAS 41 for entities to exclude cash flows for taxation when measuring fair value. This aligns the fair value measurement in IAS 41 with the requirements of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement to use internally consistent cash flows and discount rates and enables preparers to determine whether to use pretax or post-tax cash flows and discount rates for the most appropriate fair value measurement.
The amendment is applied prospectively, i.e. for fair value measurements on or after the date an entity initially applies the amendment.
The Company assessed the content of this pronouncement and did not identify any impacts.
| 3.1.2. | Accounting policies not yet adopted |
The new and changed standards and interpretations issued, but not yet adopted as of March 31, 2022, are described below. The Company intends to adopt these new standards, changes and interpretations, if applicable, when it come into force and does not expect to have a material impact on the financial statements.
| 3.1.2.1. | Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (The effective date of the amendments has yet to be set by IASB; however, earlier application to the amendments is permitted) |
The amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 deal with situations where there is a sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Specifically, the amendments state that gains or losses resulting from the loss of control of a subsidiary that does not contain a business in a transaction with an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using the equity method, are recognised in the parent’s profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interests in that associate or joint venture. Similarly, gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of investments retained in any former subsidiary (that has become an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using the equity method) to fair value are recognised in the former parent’s profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interests in the new associate or joint venture.
| 3.1.2.2. | Presentation of the financial statements – IAS 1 – Classification of liabilities as current and non-current (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2023, early adoption permitted) |
The amendments to IAS 1 affect only the presentation of liabilities as current or non-current in the balance sheet and not the amount or the time of recognition of any asset, liability, income or expense, or the information disclosed about these items.
The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on the rights existing at the balance sheet date, specify that the classification is not affected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to postpone the settlement of the liability, explain that the rights exist if restrictive clauses are complied with at the balance sheet date, and introduce the definition of 'settlement' to clarify that refers to the transfer to a counterparty; a cash value, equity instruments, other assets or services.
Suzano S.A. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information Three-month period ended March 31, 2022 | |
| |
| 3.1.2.3. | Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements – Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2023, early adoption permitted) |
The amendments change the requirements in IAS 1 with regard to disclosure of accounting policies. The amendments replace all instances of the term ‘significant accounting policies’ with ‘material accounting policy information’. Accounting policy information is material if, when considered together with other information included in an entity’s financial statements, it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements.
The supporting paragraphs in IAS 1 are also amended to clarify that accounting policy information that relates to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions is immaterial and need not be disclosed. Accounting policy information may be material because of the nature of the related transactions, other events or conditions, even if the amounts are immaterial. However, not all accounting policy information relating to material transactions, other events or conditions is itself material.
| 3.1.2.4. | Amendments to IAS 8 Definition of Accounting Estimates (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2023) |
The amendments replace the definition of a change in accounting estimates with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”. The definition of a change in accounting estimates was deleted. However, the Board retained the concept of changes in accounting estimates in the Standard with the following clarifications:
| (i) | A change in accounting estimate that results from new information or new developments is not the correction of an error |
| (ii) | The effects of a change in an input or a measurement technique used to develop an accounting estimate are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from the correction of prior period errors |
| 3.1.2.5. | Amendments to IAS 12 – Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction (Applicable for annual periods beginning on/or after January 1, 2023) |
The amendments introduce a further exception from the initial recognition exemption. Under the amendments, an entity does not apply the initial recognition exemption for transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences.
Depending on the applicable tax law, equal taxable and deductible temporary differences may arise on initial recognition of an asset and liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. For example, this may arise upon recognition of a lease liability and the corresponding right-of-use asset applying IFRS 16 at the commencement date of a lease.
Suzano S.A. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information Three-month period ended March 31, 2022 | |
| |
Following the amendments to IAS 12, an entity is required to recognise the related deferred tax asset and liability, with the recognition of any deferred tax asset being subject to the recoverability criteria in IAS 12.
The amendments apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, at the beginning of the earliest comparative period an entity recognises:
| (i) | a deferred tax asset (to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised) and a deferred tax liability for all deductible and taxable temporary differences associated with: |
| · | right-of-use assets and lease liabilities; and |
| · | decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities and the corresponding amounts recognised as part of the cost of the related asset. |
| (ii) | the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at that date. |
| 4. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS MANAGEMENT |
| 4.1. | Financial risks management |
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, there were no significant changes in the financial risk management policies and procedures compared to those disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 (Note 4).
The Company maintained its conservative approach and strong cash and marketable securities position, as well as its hedge policy.

| 4.2. | Liquidity risk management |
As disclosed in the annual financial statements (Note 4) as of December 31, 2021, the Company’s purpose is maintaining a strong cash and marketable securities position to meet its financial and operating obligations. The amount held as cash is used for payments expected in the normal course of its operations, while the cash surplus amount is invested, in general, in highly liquid financial investments according to Cash Management Policy.
The cash position is monitored by the Company’s Management, by means of management reports and participation in performance meetings with determined frequency. In the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, the variation in cash and marketable securities were as expected and the cash generated in the operation was used for the most part to investments and debt service.
On February 8, 2022, the Company, through its subsidiary Suzano Pulp and Paper Europe SA, in order to improve the management of financial liquidity, took a credit line (“Revolver Credit Facility”), increasing the total available in revolving credit lines from US$500,000 to US$1,275,000. Regarding to the amount taken, US$100,000 is available until February 2024, this remaining amount of the line already in force since February 2019, in the original amount of US$500,000. The additional amount of US$1,175,000 is available until February 2027 and has the same financial costs as the line in force until February 2024. On March 31, 2022, the Revolver Credit Facility was available, but not used.
The Company signed with the Brazilian National Bank for Economic and Social Development (“BNDES”) a Credit Limit Opening Agreement (“CALC”), a Revolving Credit Limit, in the amount of up to R$3,000,000, to be disbursed in the coming years in forest, social and industrial investments. As of March 31, 2022, the line was available but not used.
All derivatives financial instruments were in the over-the-counter derivatives and do not require deposit of guarantee margins.
The remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities are disclosed at the date of this financial information reporting date. The amounts as set forth below, consist in the undiscounted cash flows and include interest payments and exchange rate variation, and therefore may not be reconciled with the amounts disclosed in the balance sheet.

| 4.4.1.1. | Sensitivity analysis – foreign exchange rate exposure – except financial instruments derivatives |
For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to jointly evaluate assets and liabilities positions in foreign currency, and the possible effects on its results. The probable scenario represents the amounts recognized, as they reflect the translation into Brazilian Reais on the base date of the balance sheet (R$ to U.S.$ = R$4.7378).
This analysis assumes that all other variables, particularly, the interest rates, remains constant. The other scenarios considered the appreciation/depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar at the rates of 25% and 50%, before taxes.
The following table set forth the potential impacts in absolute amounts:
| | March 31, 2022 | |
| | Effect on profit or loss and equity | |
| | Probable (base value) | | | Possible (25%) | | | Remote (50%) | |
Cash and cash equivalents | | | 9,626,648 | | | | 2,406,662 | | | | 4,813,324 | |

| 4.4.1.2. | Sensitivity analysis – foreign exchange rate exposure – financial instruments derivatives |
The Company hires sales operations of U.S. Dollar in the futures markets, including strategies with options, in order to ensure attractive levels of operating margins for a portion of revenue. These operations are limited to a percentage of the net foreign exchange surplus over the 18-month horizon or to investments in the Cerrado Project according to the extraordinary hedge described above and, therefore, are attached to the availability of ready-to-sell foreign exchange in the short term.
In addition to the operational hedge described above, the Company also taken debt hedge linked to the dollar and subject to exchange variation, seeking to adjust the debt's exchange rate index to the cash generation currency, as provided for in its financial policies.
For the calculation of mark-to-market (“MtM”), the PTAX of the penultimate business day of the quarter was used. These market movements caused a positive impact on the mark-to-market hedge position entered by the Company.
This analysis assumes that all other variables, particularly, the interest rates, remains constant. The other scenarios considered the appreciation/depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar at the rates of 25% and 50%, before taxes, from the base scenario of the three-month period ended March 31, 2022.

It is important to mention that the impact caused by fluctuations in the exchange rate, whether positive or negative, will also affect the hedged asset. Therefore, even though there was a positive impact on the fair value of derivative transactions in the period, this impact was offset by the negative effect on the Company's cash flow.
The following table set forth the potential impacts assuming these scenarios:
| | March 31, 2022 | |
| | Effect on profit or loss and equity | |
| | Probable (base value) | | | Possible (+25%) | | | Remote (+50%) | | | Possible (-25%) | | | Remote (-50%) | |

| 4.4.2. | Interest rate risk management |
Fluctuations in interest rates may imply effects of increased or reduced costs on new loans and operations already hired.
The Company is constantly looking for alternatives for the use of financial instruments in order to avoid negative impacts on its cash flow.
Considering the extinction of LIBOR in June 2023, the Company is evaluating its contracts with clauses that envisage the discontinuation of the interest rate. Most debt contracts linked to LIBOR have some clause to replace this rate with a reference index or equivalent interest rate and, for contracts that do not have a specific clause, a renegotiation will be carried out between the parties. Derivative contracts linked to LIBOR provide for a negotiation between the parties for the definition of a new rate or an equivalent rate will be provided by the calculation agent.
It is worth mentioning that the clauses related to replacement of the indexes in the Company's debt contracts indexed to LIBOR, establish that any replacement of the indexation rate in the contracts can only be evaluated in two circumstances (i) after the communication from an official government entity with formalization of the replacement/extinguishment of the effective rate of the contract, and this communication must define the exact date on which LIBOR will be extinguished and / or (ii) syndicated operations begin to be executed at a rate indexed to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Considering that on March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced the date of extinction of LIBOR 3M for June 30, 2023, the Company can, from this announcement, began negotiations terms of exchange of indexes for its debt contracts and related derivatives.
The Company mapped all contracts subject to LIBOR reform that have yet to transition to an alternative benchmark rate in the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 the Company has R$15,339,121 related to loan and financing contracts and R$77,924 related to derivative contracts and, initiated contact with the respective counterparties of each contract, to ensure that the terms and good market practices are adopted at the time of the transition of the index until June 2023, and these terms are still under negotiation between the parties.

| |
The Company understands that it will not be necessary to change the risk management strategy due to the change in the indexes of the financial contracts linked to LIBOR.
The Company believes it is reasonable to assume that the negotiation of the indexes in its contracts, will move towards to the replacement of LIBOR by SOFR, because the available information, so far, indicates that SOFR will be the new interest rate adopted by the capital market. Based on the information available, the Company does not expect to have significant impact on its debts and derivatives linked to LIBOR.
| 4.4.2.1. | Sensitivity analysis – exposure to interest rates – except financial instruments derivatives |
For market risk analysis, the Company uses scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity that variations in operations impacted by the rates: Interbank Deposit Rate (“CDI”), Long Term Interest Rate (“TJLP”), Special System for Settlement and Custody (“SELIC”) and the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which may impact the results. The probable scenario represents the amounts already booked, as they reflect the best estimate of the Management.
This analysis assumes that all other variables, particularly exchange rates, remain constant. The other scenarios considered appreciation/depreciation of 25% and 50% in the market interest rates.

| 4.4.2.3. | Sensitivity analysis for changes in the consumer price index of the US economy |
For the measurement of the probable scenario, the United States Consumer Price Index (US-CPI) was considered on March 31, 2022. The probable scenario was extrapolated considering an appreciation/depreciation of 25% and 50% in the US-CPI to define the possible and remote scenarios, respectively, in absolute amounts.

| 4.4.3. | Commodity price risk management |
The Company is exposed to commodity prices that reflect mainly on the pulp sale price in the foreign market. The dynamics of opening and closing production capacities in the global market and the macroeconomic conditions may have an impact on the Company´s operating results.
Through a specialized team, the Company monitors the hardwood pulp price and analyses future trends, adjusting the forecast that aims to assisting preventive measures to properly conduct the different scenarios. There is no liquid financial market to sufficiently mitigate the risk of a material portion of the Company’s operations. Hardwood pulp price protection operations available on the market have low liquidity and low volume and large distortion in price formation.
The Company is also exposed to international oil prices, which is reflected on logistical costs for selling to the export market and indirectly in the costs of other supplies and logistics and service contracts. In this case, the Company evaluates the contracting of derivative financial instruments to mitigate the risk of price variation in its result.
On March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not hire position to hedge its logistics costs.

The variation in the fair value of derivatives for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 compared to the fair value measured on December 31, 2021 is explained substantially by appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar and by the settlements for the period. There were also impacts caused by the variations in the Pre, Foreign Exchange Coupon and LIBOR curves in transactions.
It is important to highlight that, the outstanding agreements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, are over-the-counter market, without any kind of guaranteed margin or early settlement clause forced by changes from mark to market.

Long-term benefits include the stock option plan and phantom shares for executives and key members of the Management, in accordance with the specific regulations as disclosed in Note 22.
| 12. | INCOME AND SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION TAXES |
The Company calculates income tax and social contribution taxes, current and deferred, based on the rates of 15% plus an additional 10% on taxable income in excess of R$240 for IRPJ and 9% for CSLL, on the net income. Balances are recognized in the Company's income on the accrual basis.
Associates located in Brazil have their taxes calculated and provisioned in accordance with current legislation and their specific tax regime, including, in some cases, presumed profit method. The associates located abroad are taxed in their respective jurisdictions, according to local regulations.
Deferred income and social contribution taxes are recognized at the net amounts in non-current assets or liabilities.
In Brazil, the Law nº. 12,973/14 revoked article 74 of Provisional Measure nº. 2,158/01 and determines that the parcel of the adjustment of the value of the investment in associate, direct and indirect, located abroad, equivalent to the profit earned by it before income tax, except for exchange rate variation, must be added in the determination of taxable income and the social contribution calculation basis of the controlling entity located in Brazil, at each year ended.
Management’s Company believes on the validity of the provisions of international treaties entered into Brazil to avoid double taxation. In order to guarantee its right to non-double taxation, the Company filed a lawsuit in April 2019, which aims at a non-double taxation, in Brazil, of profit earned by its associate located in Austria, according to Law n°. 12,973/14. Due to the preliminary injunction granted in favor of the Company in the records of the aforementioned lawsuit, the Company decided not to add the profit from Suzano International Trading GmbH, located in Austria, in determining of taxable income and social contribution basis of the net profit of the Company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. There is no provision for tax related to the profit of such associate in 2022.
