Quarterly Information (ITR) at

June 30, 2015

and Independent Auditors’ Report Review

Report on Review of Interim Financial Information

To the Members of the Board of Directors and Management

Braskem S.A.

Camaçari - Bahia

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Braskem S.A. (the “Company”) included in the Quarterly Financial Information for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, which comprises the balance sheet as of June 30, 2015, the statements of profit or loss and comprehensive income for the three-month and the six-month periods then ended, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and notes to the interim financial information.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this individual interim financial information in accordance with CPC 21(R1) Technical Pronouncement – Interim Financial Information and the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with CPC 21(R1) and international standard IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board – IASB, as well as for the presentation of this quarterly information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission, applicable to the preparation of interim financial information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international review standards applicable to 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 financial 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 Standards on Auditing and consequently does 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 individual interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual interim financial information referred to above is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21(R1) applicable to the preparation of interim financial information and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Conclusion on the consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial information referred to above is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21(R1) and IAS 34, issued by IASB, applicable to the preparation of interim financial information and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Emphasis of a matter

We call attention to note 20 (a) to the interim financial information which discloses events and the actions taken by the Company with respect to the ongoing internal investigations. Our conclusion does not have a change related to this issue.

Other matters

Statements of value added

We also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, prepared under the responsibility of the Company's management, whose presentation on the interim financial information is required under the standards issued by CVM - Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information and considered as additional information by IFRS, which do not require the presentation of the statement of value added. These financial statements have been submitted to the same review procedures described above and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying statements of value added are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.

Corresponding figures

The corresponding figures related to the balance sheets, individual and consolidated, as of December 31, 2014 and to the interim financial information related to the statements of profit or loss and comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods and of the statements of changes in equity, cash flows and value added for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, presented for comparison purposes in the interim financial information for the current period, have been audited and reviewed by other independent auditors, who issued reports dated February 12, 2015 and August 7, 2014, respectively, without any modification.

Braskem S.A.

Notes to the financial statements

at June 30, 2015

All amounts in thousands, unless otherwise stated

1. Operations

Braskem S.A. (hereinafter “Parent Company”) is a public corporation headquartered in Camaçari, Bahia (“BA”), which jointly with its subsidiaries (hereinafter “Braskem” or “Company”) is controlled by Odebrecht S.A. (“Odebrecht”), which directly and indirectly holds interests of 50.11% and 38.32% in its voting and total capital, respectively.

(a) Significant corporate and operating events impacting these financial statements

On December 31, 2013, the parent company entered into a share sales agreement with Odebrecht Ambiental (“OA”), through which it sold its interest in the subsidiary Distribuidora de Águas Triunfo S.A. (“DAT”) for R$315,000. On February 3, 2014, the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of DAT approved the change in its management and consequently the transfer of the management of the operations from Braskem to OA, upon the recognition of a gain (“Other operating income (expenses), net”) of R$277,338.

Other corporate events of 2014 and which did not produce significant impact on these financial statements were presented in the 2014 annual financial statements of the Company in Note 1(a).

(b) Naphtha agreement with Petrobras

On August 29, 2014, Braskem and Petrobras entered into a new amendment to the naphtha supply contract of 2009, which extended the original contract duration by 6 months (from September 1, 2014 to February 28, 2015). The naphtha pricing formula of the original contract was maintained in the amendment. It was also established that, if a new long-term contract was to be executed, the pricing formula in the new contract would be applied retroactively to any purchases made during the duration of the amendment. On the other hand, if a new long-term contract was not executed, the average price base negotiated between the parties would be valid throughout the duration of the amendment. After applying the average price scenario, it was determined that Braskem was entitled to a refund of R$242,900. This amount was recorded in the first quarter of 2015 under “Cost of goods sold” and settled in the second quarter of 2015.

On February 27, 2015, Braskem and Petrobras executed a new amendment valid through August 31, 2015, and maintained the naphtha pricing formula provided for in the 2009 contract. The amendment also established that if a new price formula is adopted in a new contract, it will be applied retroactively to any purchases made during the duration of said amendment. As of the date on which the issue of these financial statements was authorized, Braskem and Petrobras had not concluded their negotiations of a new contract.

(c) Net working capital

On June 30, 2015, the net working capital of the Parent Company was negative R$293,425 (negative R$726,012 on December 31, 2014). On the other hand, consolidated net working capital was positive R$432,767 (positive R$677,907 on December 31, 2014). Consolidated figures are used in the management of working capital, since the Company uses mechanisms to transfer funds between the companies efficiently without jeopardizing the fulfillment of the commitments of each of the entities forming the consolidated statements. For this reason, consolidated working capital reflects the actual liquidity position of the Company.

As part of its working capital management, Braskem relies on revolving credit facilities, maturing in 2019, in the amount of R$2,900,000 (US$750,000 + R$500,000). These credit facilities may be withdrawn at any time.

2.2. Effect of exchange variation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

The functional and presentation currency of the Company is the real

(b) Functional currency other than the Brazilian real

Some subsidiaries and a jointly controlled subsidiary have a different functional currency from that of the Parent Company, as follows:

			Functional currency

Subsidiaries
	Braskem Alemanha, Braskem Austria and Braskem Austria Finance		Euro
	Braskem America, Braskem America Finance, Braskem Holanda Finance and Braskem Holanda Inc		U.S.dollar
	Braskem Holanda	(i)	U.S.dollar
	Braskem Idesa , Braskem Idesa Serviços, Braskem México and Braskem México Serviços		Mexican peso

Jointly-controlled investments
	Polipropileno Del Sur S.A. ("Propilsur")		U.S.dollar

(i) The functional currency adopted for Braskem Holanda was changed from the Brazilian real to the U.S. dollar on January 1, 2015, due to the significant volume of financial and commercial transactions in U.S. dollars, particularly with the beginning of Naphtha sales in 2015.

(c) Exchange variation effects

The main effects from exchange variation that impacted these financial statements are shown below:

	End of period rate			Average rate for period ended

(c) Value at risk

The value at risk of the derivatives held by Braskem which is defined as the loss that could result in one month as from June 30, 2015, with a probability of 5%, and under normal market conditions, was estimated by the Company R$767 for the NCE interest rate swap (Note 14.2.1(a.i)), at US$27,694 for the NCE exchange swap (Note 14.2.1(b.i)), and US$172 to the swap of Libor related to Braskem Idesa’s project (Note 14.2.1 (b.ii.i)).

14.3 Non-derivative liabilities designated for export hedge accounting

(a.i) Future exports in U.S. dollars

On May 1, 2013, Braskem S.A. designated non-derivative financial instrument liabilities, denominated in U.S. dollars, as hedge for the flow of its highly probable future exports. Thus, the impact of exchange rates on future cash flows in dollars derived from these exports will be offset by the foreign exchange variation on the designated liabilities, partly eliminating the volatility of results.

Hedged exports amounted to US$6,757,231, as shown below:

						Total nominal value

2016						839,447

(a.ii) Liabilities related to the Project Finance of future sales in U.S. dollar

On October 1, 2014, Braskem Idesa designated the amount of US$2,878,936 of its liabilities related to Project Finance, denominated in U.S. dollar, as hedge instruments to protect highly probably future sales flows. Due to the new tranche received in April 2015 (Note 13), Braskem Idesa designated the new amount of US$290,545 for hedge accounting. Therefore, the impact of exchange variation on future cash flows in U.S. dollar derived from these sales in dollar will be offset by the exchange variation on the designated liabilities, partially eliminating the volatility in the results of the subsidiary.

On June 30, 2015, hedged sales and the maturities of financial liabilities amounted to US$3,169,481 and were distributed as follows

						Total nominal value
						US$

2016						67,203
2017						181,896
2018						220,199
2019						227,612

2027						150,818
2028						123,555
2029						30,889
						3,169,481

For the purposes of analyzing the prospective and retroactive effectiveness of the transactions, the Company used the dollar offset and volatility reduction coefficient methods, respectively.

(ii) Investment funds with no internal and external risk assessment whose portfolio is composed of assets from major financial institutions and that comply with Braskem’s financial policy.

Braskem’s financial policy determines “A-” as the minimum rating for financial investments.

14.5 Sensitivity analysis

Financial instruments, including derivatives, may be subject to changes in their fair value as a result of the variation in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, shares and share indexes, price indexes and other variables. The sensitivity of the derivative and non-derivative financial instruments to these variables are presented below:

(a) Selection of risks

On June 30, 2015, the main risks that can affect the value of Braskem’s financial instruments are:

· Brazilian real/U.S. dollar exchange rate;

· Libor floating interest rate;

· CDI interest rate; and

· TJLP interest rate.

For the purposes of the risk sensitivity analysis, Braskem presents the exposures to currencies as if they were independent, that is, without reflecting in the exposure to a foreign exchange rate the risks of the variation in other foreign exchange rates that could be directly influenced by it.

(b) Selection of scenarios

(b.1) Probable scenario

The Market Readout published by the Central Bank of Brazil on June 26, 2015 was used to create the probable scenario for the U.S. dollar/Brazilian real exchange rate and the CDI interest rate, using the reference date of June 30, 2015. The Market Readout presents a consensus of market expectations based on a survey of the forecasts made by various financial and non-financial institutions. According to the Market Readout, at the end of 2015, the U.S. dollar will appreciate by 26% against the Brazilian real compared to end-2014, and the Selic rate will reach 14.5%. The new Selic rate is used as a reference for analyses of sensitivity to the CDI.

The probable scenario for the TJLP is an increase of 0.50% from the current rate of 6.0%, in line with the size of the government’s most recent decisions to increase or decrease the rate. The Selic rate shows an increase of 1.75% by the end of 2015. The Market Readout does not publish forecasts for the Libor interest rate. Therefore, to determine the probable scenario, Braskem considered a 5% increase on current market levels.

Federal Law 12,973 of May 13, 2014, created from the conversion of Provisional Presidential Decree 627 of November 11, 2013, among others, revoked the Transitional Tax System (RTT) and included additional measures, notably:

(i) Changes in the federal tax laws related to income tax (IR) and social contribution (CSLL), PIS/PASEP and COFINS taxes in order to align tax accounting with corporate accounting;

(ii) Provisions on the calculation of interest on equity;

(iii) Considerations on investments valued using the equity method of accounting;

(iv) Provision regarding the tax treatment of dividends calculated based on the results in the period from January 2008 to December 2013; and

(v) Provisions regarding new rules on taxation of profits earned abroad.

The provisions in this law are applicable from 2015, except in the event of early adoption in 2014. The Company opted for said early adoption.

Later, in the fourth quarter of 2014, Brazil’s Federal Revenue Service issued several normative instructions to regulate the provisions of Federal Law 12,973, most notably IN 1,515/14, which specifically addressed the effects of the cancellation of RTT, and IN 1,520/14, which regulated the provisions on taxation of profits earned abroad.

This amount, restated in accordance with the aforementioned calculation, was settled in February 2015 for R$358,563.

20. Contingencies

(a) Allegations

In early March 2015, declarations made by defendants in lawsuits filed against third parties were made public, in which Braskem and two of its former executive officers were cited in allegations of supposed improper payments between 2006 and 2012 to benefit the Company in raw-material supply agreements entered into with Petrobras. To the extent of the knowledge of Braskem’s Management, there is no formal investigation of the Company being conducted by Brazilian or U.S. authorities.

In light of such facts, the Company's Management and Board of Directors approved in April the internal plan for investigation into the allegations ("Investigation"), which is being carried out by law firms experienced in similar cases in the United States and in Brazil. The law firms are working under the coordination of an ad hoc committee formed by members of its Board of Directors, specially created for this purpose.

Several measures have been taken in connection with the Investigation, including:

(i) Voluntary announcement about the Investigation and periodical updates sent to regulatory agencies of capital markets in Brazil (Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil - CVM) and the United States (Securities and Exchange Commission – SEC, and the Department of Justice - DOJ);

(ii) Publication of three Material Fact notices and three Notices to the Market to clarify the news reports and to keep shareholders and the market informed of actions taken by the Company;

(iii) Periodically updating the Audit Board and external auditors about the progress of the Investigation and of the actions already taken.

Braskem S.A.

Notes to the financial statements

at June 30, 2015

All amounts in thousands, except where stated otherwise

Braskem and its subsidiaries are subject to a series of anticorruption and anti-bribery laws in the countries where they operate. To avoid infringement of such laws, a series of procedures and controls were implemented and are continuously being improved.

On the other hand, if any of the allegations proves to be true, the Company may be subject to the penalties envisaged in law. At this moment, the Company Management has no way of estimating the duration or outcome of the Investigation and, consequently, whether it will have any impact on future financial statements.

The Management is committed to taking all the necessary measures to clarify the facts and will keep the market informed of any progress on this matter.

With respect to news reports on the media and the information filed by the Federal Prosecution Office against third parties, regarding alleged losses incurred by Petrobras arising from the naphtha supply agreement entered into with Braskem in 2009, the Management of Braskem released a Material Fact notice on July 27, 2015.

(b) Class actions

The Management of Braskem became aware, through the media, that it was the subject of class actions in the Courts of the United States, based on the alleged events mentioned in Note 20(a). Until the approval of this quarterly information, Braskem had not been notified on the records of any class action filed before the courts of the United States due to said allegations.

(c) Labor

The changes in the main labor claims are:

(c.1) In the class action suits filed by the Trade Union of Petrochemical and Chemical Workers of Triunfo, Rio Grande do Sul, in the second quarter of 2005, claiming the payment of overtime, agreements were reached between the parties in April 2015, with the disbursement of the amount that had been provisioned prior to December 31, 2014.

(c.2) In the class action suits filed by the Trade Union of Petrochemical and Chemical Workers of Triunfo, Rio Grande do Sul, in the third quarter of 2010, claiming the payment of overtime related to breaks during work shifts and the inclusion of overtime in the calculation of the weekly remunerated rest, in the restated amount of R$351,230, the following developments occurred: (i) the Superior Labor Court (“TST”) upheld the appeal by Braskem to eliminate breaks during work shifts, with the Trade Union filing an appeal at the TST, where it is pending trial (the amount of the suit is R$303,285); and (ii) judgment for plaintiff in the suit involving the inclusion of overtime in the calculation of the weekly remunerated rest, which was upheld by the Regional Appellate Labor Court ("TRT"), for which Braskem appealed to the TST, which ordered the case to be sent back to the TRT for a new trial (the amount of this suit is R$47,945).

Given the current stage of these suits, it is not possible to estimate when they will be concluded. No judicial deposit or other form of security was made for these suits.
