Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018

Due to the significant inflation in Argentina over the past few years including the first nine months of 2018, the three-year cumulative inflation rate in Argentina has exceeded 100% based on data from the national wholesale price index and various available inflation indices in May 2018. As such, Argentina was considered as hyperinflationary economy effective July 1, 2018 and beginning in the third quarter of 2018 the Company is required to apply inflation accounting in accordance with IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies. Thus, its statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss are restated for the changes in the general purchasing power of the local currency, using official indices at the reporting date, before translation into Brazilian Real (“R$”) and, as a result, are stated in terms of the measuring unit current at the reporting date. The details of recognition of the effects of inflation in Argentina operations are disclosed in note 25.

Translations of balances in the condensed consolidated statement of financial positions, condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows from R$ into US$ are solely for the convenience of the readers and have been calculated at the rate of US$1.00 = R$ 4.0039, representing the exchange rate set forth by the Banco Central do Brasil (Central Bank of Brazil) on September 30, 2018. No representation is made that the R$ amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on September 30, 2018, or at any other rate. All values have been rounded to the nearest thousands of R$ and US$, except where noted.

This interim information was prepared pursuant to the accounting principles, practices and criteria consistent with those adopted in financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and must be analyzed jointly with the referred to financial statements, except for the comparative information for the nine and three month period ended September 30, 2017 which restated for the purposes of applying IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations" after approval by the Board of Directors of the sale of its operation in Mexico on August 6, 2018, as presented in note 26 and also for the application of IAS 29 in the Argentinean subsidiary, see note 25 for further information.

The policy for recognizing and measuring income taxes in the interim period is described in note 22.

2.3.           Use of Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

2.4.           Fair Value Measurements

·          Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·          Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly

·          Level 3 — inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable market data.

10

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

Note 20 includes accounting classification and fair value measurement of financial instruments.

2.5.           New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company applied as of January 1, 2018, IFRS 15 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) and IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments). As required by IAS 34, the nature and effect of these changes are described below.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC-31 Revenue-Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services and it applies to all revenue arising from contracts with customers, unless those contracts are in the scope of other standards. The new standard establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.

The standard requires entities to exercise judgement, taking into consideration all the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with their customers.

The standard also specifies the accounting for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract.

The Company adopted IFRS 15 using the cumulative effect method of adoption. Accordingly, the effect of adoption has been recorded as an adjustment to equity.

The details of new significant accounting policies and the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies are set out below.

(a)      Revenue from product sales

The Company’s contracts with customers for products sales generally includes a performance obligation. The Company has concluded that revenue from products sales should be recognized at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of the goods. Therefore, the adoption of IFRS 15 did not have any impact on the timing of revenue recognition, as sales were already recognized upon delivery of the goods to customers. However, the amount of revenue to be recognized was affected by the variable consideration, as stated below.

(i)                    Variable consideration

Some contracts for product sales provide customers with a right of return. Prior to the adoption of IFRS 15, the Company recognized revenue from the sale of goods measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns. If revenue could not be reliably measured, the Company deferred revenue recognition until the uncertainty was resolved.

Under IFRS 15, rights of return give rise to variable consideration. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until the associated uncertainty is subsequently resolved. The application of the constraint on variable consideration increases the amount of revenue that will be deferred.

Rights of return

11

For contracts that permit the customer to return an item, under IFRS 15 revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Therefore, the amount of revenue recognized is adjusted for expected returns, which are estimated based on historical data.

The effect of adoption in January 1, 2018 resulted in the recognition of right of return assets (increase in inventories) of R$1,592 and refund liabilities (increase in other liabilities) of R$2,745. The net effect of R$1,153 was recorded in Accumulated losses.

(b)      Freight-related services

The Company’s contracts with customers for freight-related services is recognized once the service is rendered. The shipping fees are linked to the revenue from products sales. Therefore, the adoption of IFRS 15 did not have any impact on the timing of revenue recognition, as services were already recognized upon delivery of the goods to customers. However, the amount of revenue to be recognized was affected by the variable consideration, as stated in topic (a).

(c)      Marketplace platform

The Company’s contracts with customers for Marketplace platform generates revenue in the form of a commission, when the third-party vendors sell the products on the Company’s platform. The Company recognizes revenue from the marketplace platform on a net basis because the Company acts as an agent and does not have primary responsibility for fulfilling the orders, bear inventory risk or have discretion in establishing prices. Therefore, the adoption of IFRS 15 did not have any impact in the Company’s accounting policies, once the Company already recognized these revenues as an agent.

(d)      NCard

The Company generates commission revenue from the customers’ activation of NCards. The revenue is recognized when the NCards are activated by the customers. Therefore, the adoption of IFRS 15 did not have any impact in the Company’s accounting policies, once the Company already recognized these revenues when the customers activate the NCards.

(e)      Presentation and disclosure requirements

As required for the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company disaggregated revenue recognized from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company also disclosed information about the relationship between the disclosure of disaggregated revenue and revenue information disclosed for each reportable segment. Refer to notes 4 and 6 for the disclosure on disaggregated revenue.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 sets out requirements for recognizing measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standard replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

The Company has applied IFRS 9 with the initial adoption date of January 1, 2018 and has taken an exemption not to restate comparative information for prior periods with respect to classification and measurement (including impairment) requirements. Differences in the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities resulting from the adoption of IFRS 9 were recognized in Accumulated losses as at January 1, 2018. Accordingly, the information presented for 2017 does not generally reflect the requirements of IFRS 9 but rather those of IAS 39.

The details of new significant accounting policies and the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies are set out below.

(a)      Classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities

IFRS 9 contains a new classification and measurement approach for financial assets that reflects the business model in which assets are managed and their cash flow characteristics.

12

IFRS 9 contains three principal classification categories for financial assets: measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The standard eliminates the existing IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale.

IFRS 9 largely retains the existing requirements in IAS 39 for the classification of financial liabilities. Therefore, the adoption of IFRS 9 has not had a significant effect on the Company’s accounting policies related to classification and measurement of financial assets.

The following table compares the measurement and classification under IAS 39 and IFRS 9 for each class of financial assets.

The effect of adopting IFRS 9 on the carrying amounts of financial assets at January 1, 2018 relates solely to the new impairment requirements.

(i)                    Impairment

IFRS 9 replaces the “incurred loss” model in IAS 39 with a forward-looking “expected credit loss” (ECL) model. This new model requires the Company to record expected credit losses on trade accounts receivables, either on 12-month or lifetime basis.

The Company has assessed the application of IFRS 9 impairment model requirements and its assessment did not have a material impact on its opening balance at January 1, 2018 (except for trade receivables, described below).

Trade accounts receivables

The estimated ECLs were calculated based on actual credit loss experience over the past two years, with ECL rates calculated separately for B2C (business to consumer) and B2B (business to business) trade accounts receivable. The Company already considered the exposure to credit risk over the impairment recognized under IAS 39.

Factors considered were:

·          Significant financial difficulty of the customer;

·          Payment default;

·          Exposure to expected losses;

·          High probability of customer bankruptcy;

·          Breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal; and

·          Adverse change in a factor (for example, unemployment rates, external credit ratings).

Exposures within each group are based on credit risk characteristics and aging status.

The application of IFRS 9’s impairment requirements at January 1, 2018 resulted in an additional allowance for doubtful accounts as follows.

Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018

The classification as a discontinued operation occurs through disposal, or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale if this occurs earlier. A discontinued operation is a component of a Company business comprising cash flows and operations that may be clearly distinct from the rest of the Company and that represents an important separate line of business or geographical area of operations.

The result of discontinued operations is presented in a single amount in the statement of profit or loss, including the results after income tax of these operations less any impairment loss. Cash flows attributable to operating, investing and financing activities of discontinued operations are described in a separate note (note 26).

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the statement of profit or loss and the cash flow of the prior periods are re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued since the beginning of the comparative period.

3.               Seasonality

Like most retail businesses, the Company experiences seasonal fluctuations in its net sales and operating results. Historically, the Company has generated higher net sales in the fourth quarter, which includes Black November period (commercial holiday introduced in 2010 by Brazilian e-commerce websites which is a month-long equivalent to the Black Friday in the United States) and the Christmas season in Brazil, Argentina and Mexico (the latter presented as discontinued operations, as described in note 26) while the first quarter of the year is our slowest period, as the months of January and February correspond to vacation time in Brazil and Argentina.

The amount of cash flows and working capital we require to support our operations fluctuate throughout the year, primarily driven by the seasonality of our business. Typically, we have higher generation of cash flows during the fourth quarter, given the increase in the volume of sales we generally experience in this period, which includes the Black November period and the holiday season. Conversely, our cash flow requirements increase during the first quarter of the year as a result of (1) the maturity of the payment terms with our suppliers for inventory acquired in advance of our peak selling season and (2) a decrease in sales volumes that typically follows such season.

4.               Segment Information

The Company uses the “management approach” to determine its reportable segments. The management approach identifies operating segments based on how the entity is organized and based on how financial information is presented to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The Company concluded that the CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.  

The Company is organized around geographical divisions and discloses the following reportable segments: Brazil and International.

·         Brazil: consists of retail sales of consumer products from all of our verticals (which includes sales of sporting goods and related garments as well as fashion and more recently, beauty goods) carried out through our sites Netshoes.com.br, Zattini.com.br and Shoestock.com.br and third-party sites that we manage as well as our business to business offline operation.

·         International: consists of retail sales of consumer products (mainly sporting goods and related garments) from our site Netshoes.com.ar in Argentina.

As explained in note 26, the Mexico operation was discontinued during the third quarter of 2018, and consequently it is presented as discontinued operations.

The items not allocated directly to the reportable segments are disclosed as corporate and others. Corporate and others comprises operating expenses, financial income and financial expenses recorded in Netshoes (Cayman) Limited and Netshoes Holding, LLC.

The CODM receives individual financial information based on the nature of revenues and expenses incurred. There is no regular reporting of individual financial information for products, services, or major customers, and therefore the Company concluded that Brazil and International were each independent reportable segments.

15

No information on segment assets or liabilities is relevant for decision-making. There are no inter segment transactions in the internal reporting structure.   

The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using “segment net income (loss)”. A reconciliation of reportable segments is as follows:
