Financial Information

Report on review of interim financial information


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Fibria Celulose S.A.
So Paulo - SP

Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim accounting information of Fibria Celulose S.A.,
for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, comprising the balance sheet at that date and the statements of
income and comprehensive income, the statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the threemonth period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated interim accounting information in
accordance with the Deliberation CVM 673/11 (which approved accounting standard CPC 21(R1) - Interim
Financial Reporting), and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a
conclusion on this interim accounting information based on our review.
Scope of the review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim
Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the
Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by
the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making
inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical
and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently 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 consolidated interim information


Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying
consolidated interim accounting information referred to above has not been prepared, in all material
respects, in accordance with Deliberation CVM 673/11 and IAS 34.

So Paulo, April 22, 2015.

Operations and current developments

(a)

General information
Fibria Celulose S.A. is incorporated under the laws of the Federal Republic of Brazil, as a publicly-held
company. Fibria Celulose S.A. and its subsidiaries are referred to in this consolidated interim financial
information as the "Company", "Fibria", or "we". We have the legal status of a share corporation,
operating under Brazilian corporate law. Our headquarters and principal executive office is located in
So Paulo, SP, Brazil.
We are listed on the stock exchange of So Paulo (BM&FBOVESPA) and the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) and we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Brazilian Comisso de Valores
Mobilirios (CVM) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Our activities are focused on the growth of renewable and sustainable forests and the manufacture and
sale of bleached eucalyptus kraft pulp. Forests in formation are located in the States of So Paulo, Mato
Grosso do Sul, Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, Esprito Santo and Bahia.
We operate in a single operating segment, which is the producing and selling of short fiber pulp, with
our pulp production facilities located in the cities of Aracruz (State of Esprito Santo), Trs Lagoas (State
of Mato Grosso do Sul), Jacare (State of So Paulo) and Veracel (State of Bahia) (jointly- controlled
entity).
The pulp produced for export is delivered to customers by sea vessels on the basis of long-term contracts
with the owners of these vessels, through the ports of Santos, located in the State of So Paulo (operated
under a concession from Federal Government until 2017) and Barra do Riacho, located in the State of
Esprito Santo (operated by our subsidiary Portocel - Terminal Especializado Barra do Riacho S.A.).

Non-current assets held for sale


Losango project assets
On December 28, 2012, the Company and CMPC Celulose Riograndense Ltda. ("CMPC") signed the
definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement for the sale of all of the Losango project assets, comprising
approximately 100 thousand hectares of land owned by Fibria and approximately 39 thousand hectares
of planted eucalyptus and leased land, all located in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, in the amount of R$
615 million. On this date the first installment of the purchase price, amounting to R$ 470 million, was
paid to us. The second installment, amounting to R$ 140 million, was deposited in an escrow account
and will be released to us once additional government approvals are obtained. On November 2014, we
received an additional R$ 7 million as an advance from CMPC. The final installment of R$ 5 million is
payable to us upon the completion of the transfer of the existing land lease contracts for the assets, and
the applicable government approvals. The sale and purchase agreement establishes a period of 48
months, renewable at the option of CPMC for an additional 48 months, to obtain the required
government approvals. If this approval is ultimately not obtained, we will be required to return to CMPC
the amount paid to us, plus interest and the escrow deposits made by CMPC will revert. We have
recorded the amount received as a liability under "Advances received in relation to assets held for sale".
Since the signing of the Purchase and Sale Agreement with CMPC, we have taken action to obtain the
approvals needed, such as the fulfillment of all conditions precedent, the partial renewal of the operating
license of the areas and obtaining the documentation to be presented to the applicable government
11 of 42

Fibria Celulose S.A.


Notes to the unaudited consolidated interim

agencies. The consistent progress in obtaining these approvals indicates that favorable resolution will be
achieved.
We have concluded that these assets should remain classified as assets held for sale. However, the
completion of the sale is not under our sole control and it depends on various government approvals,
which have been slower than expected. Accordingly we have concluded that they should continue to be
classified as non-current assets held for sale as at March 31, 2015.
Upon classification as assets held for sale, the carrying amounts of the assets held for sale were
compared to their estimated fair values less cost of sale, and no impairment losses were identified.
The Losango assets did not generate any significant impact in the unaudited consolidated statement of
profit or losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Presentation of consolidated interim financial information


and summary of significant accounting policies

2.1

Consolidated interim financial information - basis of preparation

(a)

Accounting policies adopted


The consolidated interim financial information has been prepared and is being presented in accordance
with IAS 34 and Deliberation 673/11 issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission
(CVM), which approved the CPC 21(R1) - Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Accounting Statements Committee Standards (CPC).
The consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, considering that its purpose is to provide an update
on the activities, events and significant circumstances in relation to those presented in the annual
financial statements.
The current accounting practices, which include the measurement principles for the recognition and
valuation of the assets and liabilities, the calculation methods used in the preparation of this interim
financial information and the estimates used, are the same as those used in the preparation of the most
recent annual financial statements, except to the items related to the adoption of the new standards,
amendments and interpretations issued by IASB and CVM, as detailed in Note 3 below.

(b)

Approval of the consolidated


interim financial information
The consolidated unaudited interim financial information was approved by the Board of Directors on
April 22, 2015.

2.2

Critical accounting estimates


and assumptions
Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Accounting estimates will seldom match the actual results. In the three-month period
ended March 31, 2015, there were no significant changes in the estimates and assumptions which are
12 of 42

Notes to the unaudited consolidated interim
financial information at March 31, 2015

likely to result in significant adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities during the
current financial year, compared to those disclosed in Note 3 to our most recent annual financial
statements.
3

New standards, amendments and


interpretations issued by IASB and CVM
The standards below have been issued and are effectives for future periods. We have not early adopted
these standards.
Standard
IFRS 9 - Financial
Instruments

Effective
date
January 1,
2018

IFRS 15 - Revenue

January 1,
2017

IAS 41 - Agriculture
(equivalent to CPC 29 Biological Assets and
Agricultural Produce)

January 1,
2016

Main points introduced by the


standard
The main change is that, in cases where
the fair value option is taken for financial
liabilities, the part of a fair value change
which is due to an entitys own credit risk
is recorded in other comprehensive
income rather than the income statement.
This accounting standard establishes the
accounting principles to be followed by
entities to determine and measure
revenue and when the revenue should be
recognized.
The bearer plants should be accounted
for as property, plant and equipment (IAS
16/CPC 27), i.e., at cost less depreciation
or impairment provision. Bearer plants
are defined as those used to produce fruit/
regenerate for several years, but the plant
itself, once mature, does not suffer
relevant changes.

Impacts of the
adoption
The Company is currently
assessing the impacts of
the adoption.

There are no other IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective that the Company expect to
have a material impact on the Companys financial position and results of operations.
4

Risk management
The risk management policies and financial risk factors disclosed in the annual financial statements
(Note 4) did not show any significant changes. The Companys financial liabilities which present
liquidity risk are presented below by maturity (Note 4.1), exchange risk exposure (Note 4.2), sensitivity
analysis (Note 5) and fair value estimates (Note 6), which was considered relevant by Fibrias
management to be accompanied quarterly.

4.1

Liquidity risk
The table below presents the financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the
remaining period from the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in
the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows and as such they differ from the amounts
presented in the consolidated balance sheet.

Sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis of changes in foreign currency
The Companys significant risk factor, considering the period of three-month period for the evaluation is
its U.S. Dollar exposure. We adopted as the probable scenario the fair value considering the market yield
as At March 31, 2015.
To calculate the probable scenario the closing exchange rate at the date of these consolidated interim
financial information was used (R$ x USD = 3.2080). As the amounts have already been recognized in
the consolidated interim financial information, there are no additional effects in the income statement in
this scenario. In the Possible and Remote scenarios, the US Dollar is deemed to

Fair value of loans and financing


The fair value of loans and financing, which are measured at amortized cost in the balance sheet, is
estimated as follows: (a) bonds, for which fair value is based on the observed quoted price in the market
(based on an average of closing prices provided by Bloomberg), and (b) for the other financial liabilities
that do not have a secondary market, or for which the secondary market is not active, fair value is
estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows by current market interest rates, also
considering the Companys credit risk. The fair value of loans and financing are classified as Level 2 on
the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of loans and financing:

Fair value measurement of derivative


financial instruments (including embedded derivative)
The Company estimates the fair value of its derivative financial instruments and acknowledges that it
may differ from the amounts payable/receivable in the event of early settlement of the instrument. This
difference results from factors such as liquidity, spreads or the intention of early settlement from the
counterparty, among others. The amounts estimated by management are also compared with the Markto-Market (MtM) provided as reference by the banks (counterparties) and with the estimates performed
by an independent financial advisor.
A summary of the methodologies used for purposes of determining fair value by type of instrument is
presented below.
.

Swap contracts - the present value of both the asset and liability legs are estimated through the
discount of forecasted cash flows using the observed market interest rate for the currency in which
the swap is denominated, considering both of Fibrias and counterpart credit risk. The contract fair
value is the difference between the asset and liability.

Options (Zero Cost Collar) - the fair value was calculated based on the Garman-Kohlhagen model,
considering both of Fibrias and counterpart credit risk. Volatility information and interest rates are
observable and obtained from BM&FBOVESPA exchange information to calculate the fair values.

Swap US-CPI - the cash flow of the liability position is projected using the yield of the US-CPI index,
obtained through the implicit rates in the American titles indexed to the inflation rate (TIPS), issued
by the Bloomberg. The cash flow of the asset position is projected using the fixed rate established in
the embedded derivative instrument. The fair value of the embedded derivative instrument is the
present value of the difference between both positions.

With the issuance of the Act n 8,415, on February 27, 2015, the percentage to be applied over the export
revenue for calculation of the tax credit was changed from 3% to 1% between March 1, 2015 and
December 31, 2016. In 2017, the percentage to be used will be 2% and in 2018, 3% over the export
revenue.
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, the Company recognized Reintegra credits of
R$24.705, under Cost of sales in the Statement of profit and loss.

Income taxes
The Company and the subsidiaries located in Brazil are taxed based on their taxable income. The
subsidiaries located outside of Brazil use methods established by the respective local jurisdictions.
Income taxes have been calculated and recorded considering the applicable statutory tax rates enacted at
the date of the interim financial information.
The Company pays income taxes on the profits generated by foreign subsidiaries in accordance with the
Law 12,973/14, which revoked the Article 74 of Provisional Measure 2,158/01, but kept the
determination that the profits earned each year by foreign controlled subsidiaries are subject to the
payment of income tax and social contribution in Brazil in the same year, at a rate of 34%, applied to the
subsidiaries accounting profits before income tax. The repatriation of these profits in subsequent years
is not subject to future taxation in Brazil. The Company records a provision for income taxes on foreign
subsidiaries on an accruals basis. The Company decided to start paying these taxes primarily to mitigate
any risk of future tax assessments on this matter.

contingencies in comparison with the most recent annual financial statements as at December 31, 2014.
See below the main update in the period:
(i)

Swap of industrial and forestry assets with International Paper


On March 4, 2015, the Tax Federal Administrative Court (CARF - Conselho Administrativo de Recursos
Fiscais), declared that they partially sustained the position of the tax authorities in regards to the
administrative process related to the tax assessment notice issued by the Federal Revenue Service Office
regarding the swap of industrial and forestry assets between Fibria and International Paper in 2007 and
reduced the applicable fines from 150% to 75%. Following the decision, the updated amount involved
was reduced from R$ 1,957 million to R$ 1,452 million, of which R$557 million refers to the principal,
R$417 million to fines and R$478 million to interest.
Against the decision, the Company will present the applicable appeals. In the event of failure at the
administrative level, the Company emphasizes that they will discuss the debt at the judicial level.
The Company reinforces that the CARF decision does not present any financial impact and maintain its
position of not to constitute any provision for contingencies in relation to this matter, based on its
understanding and in the internal and external advisors opinion that the probability of gain on the case
is possible.

1Q15 Results
Executive Summary
The pulp market remained balanced in the first quarter of 2015. Positive demand was confirmed by the decline in
inventories and the increase in eucalyptus pulp exports over the same period last year, especially to Asia. Thanks to the
favorable fundamentals, Fibria was able to introduce a new US$20/t increase in pulp prices for all regions as of April
(Europe: US$790/t) and allowing sales to move up 3% year-on-year. As a result of the price hikes announced by other
producers, the PIX/FOEX BHKP Europe price averaged US$750/t in the quarter, 2% more than in the previous three
months. The average dollar recorded a consistent upturn throughout the period, climbing by 13%, which, together with
higher pulp prices in dollars, helped push up the average net price in reais by 14% in comparison to 4Q14. In addition,
EBITDA reached a new quarterly record.
Pulp production totaled 1,291 thousand tons in 1Q15, 6% down on 4Q14 due to the reduced number of production days
and the scheduled maintenance downtime at the Aracruz Mills C Plant. Compared to the same period the year before,
output increased by 1%, thanks to improved operating efficiency. Sales volume came to 1,229 thousand tons, 13% down
on the previous quarter due to period seasonality, and 3% up on 1Q14 due to higher demand, mainly in Europe and
Asia. Pulp inventories closed the quarter at 52 days.
The production cash cost was R$572/t, 21% up on 4Q14, primarily due to the scheduled maintenance stoppages, the
lower utilities result, the higher cost of wood (higher average distance from forest to mill and increased use of third-party
wood, especially in the forestry partnership program) and exchange rate effect. In comparison with 1Q14, the cash cost
increased by 4% (LTM IPCA inflation: 8.1%) primarily due to the foreign exchange variation and higher wood costs (for
more details, see page 7). Fibria will continue to seek initiatives to minimize its cost structure and ensure that the upturn
in its 2015 production cash cost lags inflation.

Adjusted 1Q15 EBITDA totaled R$1,007 million, 11% up on 4Q14 and a new quarterly record, thanks to the higher
average net price in reais and lower cash COGS. The EBITDA margin stood at 50%. The increase over 1Q14 was also
due to the higher average net price in reais, as well as the upturn in sales volume. LTM EBITDA came to R$3,119
million, 12% up on 2014. Free cash flow for the quarter amounted to R$373 million, 42% more than in the previous three
months, mainly due to higher EBITDA and the decline in interest payments (thanks to the liability management
initiatives), partially offset by the variation in working capital. The year-on-year increase was driven by the same factors
(for more details, see page 16).

The 1Q15 financial result was a net expense of R$1,746 million, versus net expenses of R$611 million in 4Q14 and
R$170 million in 1Q14. The variation was chiefly due to the 21% appreciation of the closing dollar against the real,
resulting in higher foreign-exchange losses on dollar-denominated debt and hedge instruments. It is worth noting the
39% reduction in interest expenses in dollars over 1Q14, thanks to more effective liability management aimed at
reducing the principal and cost of debt. Gross debt in dollars totaled US$2,915 million, 7% and 22% down on 4Q14 and
1Q14, respectively. The Company closed the quarter with a cash position of R$361 million, including the mark-to-market
of the derivative instruments.

As a result of all the above, Fibria reported a 1Q15 net loss of R$566 million, versus a net loss of R$128 million in 4Q14
and net income of R$19 million in 1Q14.

1Q15 Results
Pulp Market
The pulp market began 2015 on a high note. Increased supply from the operational start-up of new capacities in 2014,
was accompanied by strong growth of eucalyptus pulp sales, especially to Asia, creating a favorable environment for the
hardwood pulp producers to increase their prices at the beginning of the year.
According to the World-20 report published by the Pulp and Paper Products Council (PPPC), global eucalyptus pulp
sales increased by a substantial 18% year-on-year (or 680 thousand tons) in the three months of 2015, with positive
results in all markets. China continued to drive demand, accounting for 40% of the additional volume. North American
demand also performed well in the annual comparison, partially due to the sales recovery in 1Q15 after the harsh winter
that impacted the market in 1Q14.

The scheduled maintenance downtimes in Europe and South America played an important role in controlling producers
inventory levels throughout the quarter. In Brazil alone, the scheduled stoppages prevented around 130 thousand tons of
hardwood pulp from reaching the market in the first three months. Despite the usual beginning-of-year upturn due to
seasonally weaker demand, producers hardwood pulp inventories closed March at 38 days.

Domestic Market Pulp

Pulp production totaled 1,291 thousand t in 1Q15, 6% down on the previous quarter, due to the lower number of
production days (1Q15: 90 days | 4Q14: 92 days) and the scheduled maintenance downtime at the Aracruz Mills C
Plant. In comparison with 1Q14, production edged up by 1% due to improved operating efficiency. Pulp inventories
closed the quarter at 772 thousand tons (52 days), 9% up on the 710 thousand tons recorded in 4Q14 (48 days) and 7%
down on the 834 thousand tons registered in 1Q14 (56 days).
Regulatory Standard 13 (Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspection) extended the maximum period between recovery boiler
inspections from 12 to 15 months. Consequently, downtimes that used to take place on an annual basis, almost always
at the same time of the year, are undergoing planning changes in accordance with the new regulation. In the long term,
this extension will reduce costs and increase output. The calendar for scheduled maintenance downtimes in Fibrias mills
in 2015 is shown below, in which these changes become clear.

Sales volume totaled 1,229 thousand tons, 13% less than in the previous three months due to period seasonality, and
3% more than in 1Q14, mainly due to increased sales to Europe and Asia. In the quarter, sales to Europe accounted for
46% of total sales, followed by Asia with 26%, North America with 17% and Latin America with 11%.

Net revenue totaled R$1,997 million in 1Q15, virtually flat in relation to 4Q14, thanks to the higher average net price in
reais, in turn the result of the 13% average appreciation of the dollar, which offset the decline in sales volume. The 22%

1Q15 Results
increase over 1Q14 was fueled by the higher average net price in reais and the upturn in sales volume. LTM net revenue
came to R$7,438 million, 5% higher than in 2014 and a new 12-month record.

The cost of goods sold (COGS) fell by 8% over 4Q14 and increased by 2% over 1Q14. In relation to the previous
quarter, the reduction was due to the decline in sales volume and the positive inventory turnover effect, which was
reflected in the previous quarters production cash cost, and by lower freight expenses (lower volume partially offset by
the appreciation of the dollar against the real). The 2% year-on-year upturn was mainly due to higher sales volume.
Nevertheless, cash COGS fell by 1%, mainly thanks to the positive effect of REINTEGRA, partially offset by the increase
in production costs and higher freight expenses.
The pulp production cash cost totaled R$572/t in 1Q15, 21% up on the quarter before, due to the following factors: (i)
higher wood costs, in turn explained by the extended average transportation radius (1Q15: 195 km | 4Q14: 184 km) and
the increased participation of third-party wood in the mix, mainly in forestry partnership operations (1Q15: 13% | 4Q14:
10%), (ii) the scheduled maintenance downtime at the Aracruz Mills C Plant, and (iii) the lower utilities result (mostly
energy sales), among other factors, as shown in detail in the table below. The 4% increase over 1Q14 was mainly due to
the foreign exchange effects (approximately 13% of the production cash cost is dollar-pegged) and higher wood
expenses, the increase in the average transportation radius (1Q15: 195 km | 1Q14: 180 km), and the higher share of
third-party wood in the mix, mostly acquired form forestry partnership operations. Excluding the effects of the downtime,
the cash cost was R$548/t, 16% up on 4Q14 and 5% more than in 1Q14, while period inflation, measured by the IPCA
consumer price index, came to 8.1%. Fibria will continue pursuing its goal of keeping the increase in its 2015 production
cash cost below inflation.

Selling expenses totaled R$95 million in 1Q15, 8% down on 4Q14 due to the reduction in sales volume, partially offset by
the foreign exchange impact. The increase over 1Q14 was primarily due to higher terminal expenses, the appreciation of
the dollar against the real and higher sales volume. The selling expenses to net revenue ratio remained flat over both
periods at 5%.
Administrative expenses came to R$73 million, 10% down on 4Q14 due to reduced payroll and third-party service
expenses, and 6% up on 1Q14 due to higher expenses with the same items.
Other operating income (expenses) totaled an expense of R$21 million in 1Q15, versus an expense of R$120 million in
4Q14 and income of R$6 million in 1Q14. The quarter-on-quarter variation was chiefly due to the non-revaluation of
biological assets and the reduction in the average negative net effect of the write-down of property, plant and equipment.
The annual variation was due to lower tax benefits.

Income from interest on financial investments came to R$16 million in 1Q15, 20% down on 4Q14, due to the use of
resources to pay period commitments, and the strategy of working with a minimum cash balance, using surplus funds to
pre-settle less attractive debt in 2014. Cash and cash equivalents and securities totaled R$1,284 million (excluding the
mark-to-market of derivative instruments), 29% less than in 1Q14, mainly due to the use of funds to pre-settle debt in
4Q14. Hedge transactions generated a loss of R$549 million, R$506 million of which from the negative variation in the
fair value of the hedge instruments, especially debt swaps (for more details, see the derivative section on page 10).
Interest expenses on loans and financing totaled R$101 million in 1Q15, 10% down on the previous quarter, primarily
due to settlements in 4Q14 (US$118 million related to the Fibria 2021 bonds, US$439 million in Export Prepayment debt
and R$326 million in Export Credit Notes). The 26%, or R$36 million, reduction over 1Q14 was chiefly due to the
Companys liability management initiatives.
Foreign-exchange losses on dollar-denominated debt (94% of total debt) including real/dollar swaps, stood at R$1,302
million, versus a loss of R$438 million in 4Q14 and income of R$227 million in 1Q14. This expense was due to the 21%
and 42% devaluations of the real against the closing dollar in 1Q14 and 4Q14, respectively (1Q15: R$3.2080 | 4Q14:
R$2.6562| 1Q14: R$2.263).

1Q15 Results
Other financial income (expenses) amounted to income of R$11 million in 1Q15, versus an expense of R$36 million in
4Q14, mainly due to the accounting and financial impacts incurred on the prepayment of debt in 4Q14. In 1Q14, there
was an expense of R$330 million, chiefly due to the total repurchase of the 2020 bonds.
On March 31, 2015, the mark-to-market of derivative financial instruments was negative by R$923 million (a negative
R$183 million from operational hedges, a negative R$902 million from debt hedges, and a positive R$162 million from
embedded derivatives), versus a negative R$417 million on December 31, 2014, giving a negative variation of R$506
million. This result was mainly due to the period devaluation of the real, impacting outstanding debt swaps. Cash
disbursements from transactions that matured in the period totaled R$43 million (R$3 million of which in operational
hedges and R$40 million in debt hedges). As a result, the net impact on the financial result was negative by R$549
million. The following table shows Fibrias derivative hedge position at the end of March 2015:

Zero cost collar operations (ZCCs) have proved to be more appropriate in the current exchange scenario, especially due
to the volatility of the dollar, as they lessen the impact of an upturn in the real, limiting the exchange rate decline to levels
favorable to the Company while also limiting negative impacts in the event of a significant depreciation of the real. In
addition to protecting the company in these scenarios, this feature also allows it to achieve greater benefits in terms of
export revenues should the dollar move up. In 1Q15, there was a sharper appreciation of the dollar against the real
(2.6562 R$/US$ in 4Q14, versus R$3.2080 in 1Q15), resulting in a negative ZCC mark-to-market of R$183 million,
versus a negative R$19 million in 4Q14. However, these instruments allow for the protection of a foreign exchange band
favorable to cash flows, within which Fibria does not pay or receive the amount of the adjustments As the band

1Q15 Results
comprises an ample exchange variation, even with the hefty devaluation of the real in 1Q15, cash disbursements came
to only R$3 million, related to the adjustment of transactions maturing in the period (notional amount of US$420 million).
Currently, these operations have a maximum term of 12 months, covering 60% of net foreign exchange exposure, and
their sole purpose is to protect cash flow exposure. Average strike prices for the next 12 months are R$2.40 (put) and
R$3.56 (call) and the total notional amount is US$1,345 million. Given the dollar oscillation risk, the Company conducted
a sensitivity analysis (below) for changes in the exchange rate, which shows the cash adjustments on the maturity of
each ZCC operation for each exchange level, which is different from the mark-to-market amount (for further information,
please refer to note 5 in Financial Statements):

Derivative instruments used to hedge debt (swaps) are designed to transform real-denominated debt into dollardenominated debt or protect existing debt against adverse swings in interest rates. Consequently, all of the swap asset
legs are matched with the flows of the respective hedged debt. The fair value of these instruments corresponds to the net
present value of the expected flows until maturity (average of 38 months in 1Q15) and therefore has a limited cash
impact.
The forestry partnership and standing timber supply contracts entered into on December 30, 2013 are denominated in
U.S. dollars per cubic meter of standing timber, adjusted in accordance with U.S. inflation measured by the CPI
(Consumer Price Index), which is not related to inflation in the areas where the forests are located, constituting,
therefore, an embedded derivative. This instrument, presented in the table above, is a sale swap of the variations in the
U.S. CPI for the period of the above-mentioned contracts. See note 5 (e) of the 1Q15 financial statements for more
details and a sensitivity analysis of the fair value in the event of a substantial variation in the U.S. CPI.
All financial instruments were entered into in accordance with the guidelines established by the Market Risk Management
Policy, and are conventional instruments without leverage or margin calls, duly registered with the CETIP (Securities
Custody and Financial Settlement Clearinghouse), which only have a cash impact on their respective maturities and
amortizations. The Companys Governance, Risk and Compliance area is responsible for the verification and control of
positions involving market risk and reports directly and independently to the CEO and the other areas and bodies
involved in the process, ensuring implementation of the policy. Fibrias Treasury area is responsible for executing and
managing the financial operations.

Net Result
The Company posted a 1Q15 net loss of R$566 million, versus a loss of R$128 million in 4Q14 and net income of R$19
million in 1Q14. The variation in both periods was chiefly due to the increase in the negative financial result, partially

11

1Q15 Results
offset by the improved operating result. Excluding non-recurring effects (tax credits) and the impact of the exchange
variation (mainly on debt and hedge instruments), Fibria would have recorded net income of R$513 million in 1Q15.
Analyzing the result in terms of earnings per share, i.e. excluding depreciation, depletion and monetary and exchange
variations (see the reconciliation on page 23), the indicator was 11% higher than in 4Q14, thanks to the increase in the
average net price in reais and the reduction in cash COGS. The 52% year-on-year upturn was due to the 42% average
appreciation of the dollar against the real, which offset the decline in pulp prices, and higher sales volume. The chart
below shows the main factors impacting the 1Q15 net result, beginning with EBITDA in the same period:

1Q15 Results
The Company closed March 2015 with gross debt of R$9,352 million, 12% up on 4Q14 and 11% more than in 1Q14,
primarily due to the impact of the increase in the negative exchange variation on foreign-currency debt (R$1,302 million).

Interest Accrual

The financial leverage ratio in dollars narrowed to 2.3x on March 31, 2015 (versus 2.4x at the close of 4Q14). The
average total cost(*) of Fibrias dollar debt was 3.5% p.a. (Dec/14: 3.4% p.a. | Mar/14: 3.7% p.a.) comprising the average
cost of local currency bank debt of 8.0% p.a. (Dec/14: 7.6% p.a. | Mar/14: 7.2% p.a.), which moved up due to the impact
on the yield curve of the 0.5 p.p. increase in long-term interest rates as of the second quarter of 2015, and the cost in
dollars of 3.8% p.a. (Dec/14: 3.7% p.a. | Mar/14: 4.1% p.a.). The Company will continue to seek opportunities to reduce
the cost of its debt and extend its terms. The graphs below show Fibrias indebtedness by instrument, indexing unit and
currency (including debt swaps):

Local Currency

Cash and cash equivalents closed March 2015 at R$361 million, including the mark-to-market of hedge instruments
totaling a negative R$923 million. Excluding this impact, 56% of cash was invested in local currency, in government
bonds and fixed-income securities, and the remainder in short-term investments abroad.
The Company has four revolving credit facilities totaling R$1,748 million available for a period of four years (as of the
contract date), three of which in local currency totaling R$850 million (contracted in Mar/13 and Mar/14) at 100% of the
CDI plus 1.5% p.a. to 2.1% p.a. when utilized (0.33% p.a. to 0.35% p.a. when on stand-by) and one in foreign currency
totaling US$280 million (contracted in Mar/14), at the 3-month LIBOR plus 1.55% p.a. when utilized (35% of this spread
when on stand-by). These funds, despite not being utilized, help improve the Companys liquidity. Given the current cash
position of R$361 million, these lines totaling R$1,748 million have resulted in an immediate liquidity position of R$2,109
million. As a result, the cash to short-term debt ratio (including these stand-by credit facilities) closed 1Q15 at 2.2x.

Capex totaled R$356 million in 1Q15, 17% down on the previous three months, primarily due to reduced expenditure on
forest maintenance and lower expenses from truck acquisitions, which should move up in the second half. The18% yearon-year increase was mainly due to higher expenditure with replanting and standing timber purchases. The third-party
wood participation decreased to 25% in 1Q15 (4Q14: 35% | 1Q14: 26%).

Free cash flow was positive by R$373 million in 1Q15, versus a positive R$263 million in 4Q14 and a positive R$9 million
in 1Q14. The improvement over the previous quarter was mainly due to the increase in EBITDA and the decline in
interest payments, thanks to the liability management initiatives, partially offset by the negative working capital variation.
The year-on-year upturn was also due to higher EBITDA and reduced interest payments, partially offset by the increase
in Capex. The working capital downturn over 4Q14 was largely due to higher inventories and lower accounts payable.

ROE and ROIC


In regard to return metrics, it is worth noting certain adjustments in the accounting indicator, given the differences in
accounting treatment under IFRS (CPC 29 and CPC 15). Specifically regarding CPC 15, the Company took part in an
M&A transaction in 2009, which resulted in an additional accounting effect, which is being adjusted in the calculations as
shown below:

EBITDA Adjusted

EBITDA is not a standard measure defined by Brazilian or international accounting rules and represents earnings (loss)
in the period before interest, income tax and social contribution, depreciation, amortization and depletion. The Company
presents adjusted EBITDA according to CVM Instruction no. 527 of October 4, 2012, adding or subtracting from the
amount the equity income, the provisions for losses on recoverable ICMS, non-recurring write-offs of fixed assets, the fair
value of biological assets and tax credits from recovered contingencies to provide better information on its ability to
generate cash, pay its debt and sustain its investments. Neither measurement should be considered as an alternative to
the Companys operating income and cash flows or an indicator of liquidity for the periods presented.
